Chapter 492: Tafel's Calculations
At the same time that the fallen Holy Light Firewing Tiger and the Dark Phantom Butterfly led a large number of Fallen Demonic Beasts to emerge from the spatial teleportation array hidden in the Holy City, near Eric's Town, the army led by the Templar Knights' Leader Red also suddenly encountered the attack of the Fallen Demonic Beasts in Eric's Town. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Of course, the offensive here in Eric Town was not even a feint, but was just to attract the attention of Red and his army, and to delay as much as possible when they found out that the Holy City was under attack.
And as a result, there is no doubt that this hand was successful.
The Fallen Demonic Beasts in Eric's Town are not as numerous as the Fallen Demonic Beasts that appear in the Holy City, but the proportion of Fallen High-level Demonic Beasts whose strength has reached the fifth order or above is more, because of this, although it seems that the chaotic formation of the Demonic Beasts rushing out of the town was scattered by a surprise attack led by Red, but in fact, those Fallen High-level Demonic Beasts and some of the more powerful Fallen Low-level Demonic Beasts were not really fatally injured in the Templar Knights' assault at all, and soon, these Demonic Beasts dragged the Templar Knights into a chaotic battle with their very different fighting methods and strong individual strength from humansγ
Outside the town, the roars of the demonic beasts mingled with the battle cries of the knights, completely muffling out the faint sound coming from the direction of the holy city, and everyone, including Red, was obviously unable to notice the human catastrophe that was happening in the holy city behind them for the time being until they returned after cleaning up the fallen demonic beasts that suddenly rushed out of the town in front of them or the communication soldiers they sent to the holy city to communicate before the start of the war.
At the same time, what Red and the Templars also did not notice was that shortly after the battle began, from the flank and rear of the town, two teams flew away from the already empty town, one group of people bypassed the battlefield in front of the town, circled the wilderness around the town and began to march in the direction of the Holy City, while the other team had only two people, and they flew faster than their companions in the other direction.

It's been about a few kilometers from the town of Eric in the wilderness.
Silaire and Rogers were flying at a low altitude as fast as they could, of course, Rogers, as an artificial magician of the water system, was able to fly completely because of the relationship between the group levitation that Silaire had imposed on the two of them.
"That's why I told you before, that old man is definitely not an ordinary Nolan, he can do magic, at least his spiritual magic must be very powerful!"
Because he was half a position ahead of Rogers' flight, Silaire turned his face slightly as he spoke.
The white-haired sorcerer's swear came from a previous time when he had been quietly captured by Wissinger in a meeting and made a gesture, and this time it was brought up because of the way the Nolan group had looked before him and Rogers when they had left town.
The smirking fat man Vincent who was very unaccustomed to Silaire when they worked together before, the Tim who looked like a little woman, and the two little girls named Xingxi and Ali Ali, all stood beside Wissinger, expressionless, not even the slightest movement of the facial muscles - only the bald man Iger seemed to have changed much, he was originally a mouthless guy.
A day ago, in the corridor of the stronghold, when they saw these Nolan guys, at least they had normal human reactions, but today, all the Nolan people, except for the Great Elder Wissinger, were like a group of puppets, and they didn't even have the slightest surprise or suspicion that a large stone slab suddenly appeared next to them that contained six people who didn't know whether they were alive or dead.
"Anyone can see that the Nolans are being mentally manipulated, and the people on that slate...... That sinister old man, I really don't know how much else he's hiding!"
Silaire couldn't help but shudder at the thought of Wissinger, who stood between such a group of walking dead-like people, but was completely the same as usual, and had a deep and calm appearance to communicate with him and Rogers.
That old man, at first Silaire looked down on him because he was a stupid and bubbly Grand Elder of the Nolan Clan, but now, he had already realized that he was very wrong. The rest of the Nolan clan were indeed poor pawns who were used by more than one person and still didn't know the truth at all, but the Great Elder ...... He, like his master Tafel, is a real chess player.
"Alright, what Grand Elder Wissinger wants to do and do, that's not something we need to worry about," Rogers said calmly, "We just need to do what our master has asked us to do." β
Silaire muttered a few words under his breath, but did not refute it.
That's right, he looks down on those Nolans, because they are all stupid hats who have been sold and are still helping people to make money, but in fact, think about himself, he and Rogers and the Hand of Death of Lessenfaran are better than Nolan, because they know part of the truth, they know what their master wants to do, but they are not much better than Nolan, because even if they know a lot, they are still a group of pawns.
"But then again, I really didn't expect you to be so attentive and remember leaving tracking marks on fleeing opponents. β
"It's rare to see such a good prey, I'm not willing to let her go like that, anyway, tracking magic is not a sophisticated magic but it's hard to detect, just do it," Silaire said, shaking his head. It's a pity that that little girl is really Nolan, I originally planned to wait until I have the opportunity to find her and snatch the elemental affinity on her body, but it's a pity that that guy's elemental affinity and magic ability are obtained through Nolan's law nine times out of ten, as soon as a person dies, the law will be invalid, and I will still not be able to get any benefits at all. β
Rogers and Silaire were now commissioned by Grand Elder Wissinger to find Cheruth. After deciding to plan ahead, the Great Elder knew that the best time to meet with Cheruth had come, and he would go to the Holy City to complete the last step of sacrifice, and then wait for Rogers and Silaire to send Cheruth personally over so that he could personally kill the only girl who was not under his control and gave him an inexplicable sense of threat in the best condition, and complete the final step of the sacrifice on the way to the "god".
"Having said that, I remember that there should have been a total of twelve people in the Nolan clan who survived the old man and the little girl we are looking for now, right, and the old man only took eleven from the town before?"
"You forgot the one that is still left in the Warcraft Forest, Wissinger has already cast conditional teleportation magic on all of their Nolan people, and when the teleportation over there in the Warcraft Forest is over, Leyson and the Hand of Death will naturally send that guy over as agreed, just like the six on the stone slab. β
Silaire whistled.
"Rogers, you haven't told me what the hell is going on with the master, obviously the master has been forced to do nothing this time, but why do we still want to help Wissinger?"
Wissinger and Tafel, the Nolan Grand Elder and the "Explorer", perhaps uninformed outsiders and those Nolans who were kept in the dark thought that the two were friends and allies who could help each other before, as the Great Elder said, but Silaire and those who knew the inside story knew very well that the two of them did not have such a good friendship at all, and even the goal of the two people was actually the secret contained in the Nolan clan, strictly speaking, it should be regarded as an opponent and enemy who needed to compete with each other.
It's just that before the last step of sacrifice, the two people have to do the same thing, so Wissinger and Tafel will join forces, after all, no matter who they are, what they have to do and the ultimate goal is to confront the most essential law of this world, the fate line and the "surrogates" - but now, before the critical moment when the two people need to calculate each other, Tafel, who seems to be the most favorable explorer on the scene, is the hateful "surrogate" They were disqualified from the game, and the chess pieces they had gathered under Tafel's hands should no longer serve Wissinger in the first place.
However, continue the original work, except for not entering the holy city destined to become the meeting point of fate at the last moment, and assist Wissinger in completing all the plans for the final sacrifice...... Their master, Tafel, commanded them in this way.
Silaire couldn't figure it out, and so did Rogers, but after Rogers had reported to Tafel what they had learned about Cheruth, the only Nolanite who was not controlled by Wissinger, he finally got Tafel's instructions and knew why Tafel was doing it. And now, Silaire wants to know that.
However, after hearing Silaire's question, Rogers did not answer immediately, but suddenly changed the conversation.
"Silaire, why do you suddenly care about this? Obviously, we pawns just need to carry out the master's orders, right?"
"Uh......"
Silaire said, Rogers is right, don't look at the two of them and the four of Leyson Flange are now equivalent to the seventh-order master magicians on the continent, and even due to the transformation of the biological magic guide circuit in the body, the characteristics of absorbing magic energy can almost be said to be invincible when fighting against the magicians of their respective attributes, but in fact, everything about them is given by Tafel who transformed them into artificial magicians, no matter how powerful they are, they are just obedient pawns in front of their own master, whose strength and knowledge are equally terrifying, their people, their abilities, do not belong to themselves, but to the master Tafelγ
Can...... Obviously, the master has told you, which means that this is not something that the master needs to keep secret, and it is normal for him to be curious and ask......
Looking at Silaire's look of not knowing what to say, Rogers seemed to have a flash of disappointment in his eyes for a moment, but quickly regained his composure.
"The owner did this, naturally, to make the future plan a little smoother. β
Without waiting for Silaire to express any displeasure at his suspicion of being tricked by Rogers, Rogers continued smoothly.
"This time, because of the intervention of the 'surrogates', the master had to give up the plan, but this does not mean that the master will give up the secret hidden in the Nolan clan. But Wesinger is not a simple character, if the master asked us to turn our heads to deal with the Nolan clan at that time to sabotage Wissinger's plan, maybe the Nolan elder will indeed fall short this time, but we alone can't deal with him at all, maybe in the end we can only watch him retreat with those Nolans, and then wait for the next time the master wants to get the secret of the Nolan clan, he can only fight with him, which is not what the master expects.
"So the master asked us to continue to support Wissinger's plan, let him start the sacrifice in the ruined holy city of Solan as originally intended, and then, in his last step, let his plan collapse completely. β
"Huh, let Wessinger's plans all collapse?" Silaire's eyes widened in surprise, "You mean we're going to attack Wissinger after he starts the sacrifice?"
"No, it's not us, it's the girl we're going to find. β
Rogers said, a look of interest flashing in his eyes.
"The only Nolan people who have not been affected by Wissinger for thousands of years have been magically involved with their unrelated Norlan people, but each time in the end, the fates of both sides have not converged again...... That's why I said you've done a good job, Silaire, and after hearing about the outcast Nolan girl, the master was very interested in it, and the master thought that the girl might be the one who was destined to stop Wissinger in the line of fate.
"Obviously, both the master and Wissinger have the possibility and motive to subvert the fate line of the law, but when the 'surrogates' confronted the master before, they did not stop Wissinger at all, but expelled the master from the center of this incident with all their might, and the master guessed that this may be because those 'surrogates' have long known that in the established script of the fate line, Wissinger will definitely fail even if they don't take action. Originally, the master thought that the person who defeated Wissinger would be the current pope of the Solan Cult, after all, the old man's law of order happened to be the nemesis of the Nolans, but now, that girl made the master feel more likely than the Solan Pope. β
"How is that possible?" said Silaire, a little incredulous, "you say, that little girl has the potential to defeat Wissinger, and she can't even beat me...... Of course, I don't necessarily fail to beat that sinister old man...... But is it possible for that girl to defeat the old man......?
"That's why we're here now. β
Rogers smiled.
"Even if Wessinger hadn't asked us to bring that girl to the Holy City before, I would have taken you alone to her later...... Instead of taking her to the Holy City, they took her away. The master said that if she was really the one who fate had chosen to defeat Wesinger, then she would be able to avoid us or even outperform us, and if she wasn't, then it was just right that we took the last piece of the puzzle from the Nolan and handed it over to the master, and even if Wissinger succeeded in completing the sacrifice in the Holy City of Solan, he would have to fail because of the lack of this last piece of the puzzle.
