It was the middle of the night in Graham, but on the other side of the world, it was a sunny scene.

In the rolling hills of the vast green field, a large number of soldiers in neat black uniforms armed with long rifles and listening to the dense beat of drums and horns, constantly emerged from all directions, gathering towards a certain area.

Looking down from the sky, the slowly spreading army was black, as if many ant colonies had smelled the scent of honey and hurried away.

From time to time, bursts of gunfire rang out, and cannonballs and roars pierced the void continuously.

Under the pressure of the army, the atmosphere in the green field was very tense.

But this did not affect the fact that a snow-white airship slowly passed by high in the air, moving slowly and methodically, unmoved by everything below.

On the surface of this airship's airbag, a ring inverted triangle symbol that changes color in the sunlight is painted with a gorgeous and magical atmosphere.

This is the hallmark of Fort Grant, a top school in the wizarding world.

"After Gray Felix left, the Imperial army in this vicinity became more and more rampant."

Inside the airship's spacious and bright pods.

A middle-aged gentleman in an emerald green waistcoat with a pocket watch on his chest was standing in front of a transparent glass window, leaning on his cane, quietly looking down on what was happening on the ground below.

"Cape Verde is a colony seized by the United Kingdom, but this group of imperials has no scruples to break in, which is no different from provoking a war."

The middle-aged gentleman's nasal voice was a little heavy when he spoke, and his tone was quite similar to that of the airship under his feet, all of them were slow and logical, and although the words in his mouth were full of disgust, the whole person seemed relatively cold.

"If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't suppress this group of Imperial people, how could the coward Gray leave?"

There was someone next to the middle-aged man who was disdainful.

"What do you say that the family has important matters to deal with, so they are in a hurry to go back...... Who would believe such nonsense as he is? ”

"The Felix family has certainly had some things happen to lately."

As he spoke, the middle-aged gentleman glanced at the hook-nosed man beside him, who looked to be about thirty years old and had black hair in a long ponytail.

"Gray's son is your nephew, I think you know better than I do."

"Kevin, ......"

The man with the ponytail smiled noncommittally, and then, as if unwilling to talk about the topic, he turned to say, "Guess who this group of Imperial people is hunting down below?" ”

"A group of remnants of the Church of the Sun God."

The middle-aged gentleman didn't have to guess at all to say this result, apparently having learned the information.

"Most of them belong to the Knights Hospitaller, and a few belong to the Chant House, which has been preaching in Cape Verde for many years, and has recently been discovered by the Empire."

"How many people can there be?"

The man with the ponytail raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

"The following imperial armies are all tens of thousands in total, right? Clearing a group of remnants with such fanfare? ”

"There should be less than a hundred members in the core Helios Church."

The middle-aged gentleman said in a deep voice: "But there should be about two thousand followers following them, which is the number that can form combat power, not including the elderly and children. ”

"So, the Imperial people are going to kill them all, and they will not let go of any of them with all their might?"

"They've always been that way." The middle-aged gentleman nodded in response.

The man with the ponytail frowned when he heard this, and opened his mouth to say something, but after hesitating for a moment, he didn't say anything.

Then, looking at the dense "ants" on the ground below, he spat on the ground, and then left without looking back.

In place, the middle-aged gentleman in the emerald green vest glanced sideways at the back of his companion leaving, and said nothing.

Turning his back, he looked down at what was happening on the ground below and fell silent.

Teaching at Fort Saint Grant is not about staying in school and teaching only theory.

After the students reach a certain grade, the school organizes hand-led trips to some dangerous areas around the world.

The people in this airship belong to one of the training teams-

Originally, they were in a dark forest, conducting natural observation and on-the-ground survival tests.

As a result, they met a group of madmen from the Primordial Shinrikyo in the forest, and the two sides clashed.

In the end, for the safety of the trainees, they had to choose to leave by airship.

This is actually within the scope of the plan, because it will not be long before the new students will enroll.

At that time, the senior students who participated in the training in the airship will become the auxiliary instructors of the new students.

So you have to go back and prepare in advance.

It's just that, although it didn't exceed expectations, taking the initiative to leave and being forced to leave are completely different things.

The companion before was already in a bad mood because of this.

Now, halfway through, I saw the Imperial army intruding into the colonies of the United Kingdom unreasonably, wantonly chasing and killing a group of old, weak, sick and disabled, and of course there would be no good temper.

It's a pity that although they can't get used to the style of the Imperials, they can't do anything at all.

This is not because I am afraid of offending the Imperials, but because at this moment, there are a large number of Imperial Air Forces "flying" around the airship......

Looking down, out of the corner of his eye, the middle-aged gentleman could see some small black dots looming in the airspace far away from the airship, like a hidden but deadly swarm of bees.

"The Great Age of Genes"

This is an experimental army called the Imperial Royal Engineer Aviation Battalion, based on the flying broomstick, which has become increasingly popular in the wizarding world in the last two years.

Very mobile, ideal for some assassination assault missions.

They weren't approaching the airship right now, and they didn't seem to be threatening.

However, if the people in the airship really dare to get involved in everything that happens below, then the outcome of the airship being attacked and crashing is something that can be imagined.

"Savage Imperials......"

There were no less than 2,000 fighters following the Church of the Sun God, and the number of soldiers and family members who followed behind this group was even more than 10,000.

Thinking that a large number of old, weak, sick and disabled people below would be strangled to death by the army, and there would even be countless immature and innocent children, the middle-aged gentleman couldn't help frowning.

Because he was afraid of the airship being attacked, he didn't dare to move.

But he began to think about how to negotiate with the empire through the school after this incident, so that these barbarians would not do this kind of thing in the future.

It's nothing to die a few people.

But dying too many people, especially too many children, will affect the control of all wizards over the secular world.

……

On the other side, the man with a ponytail who left the window of the airship had already walked into a relatively lively cabin.

After glancing at the young students gathered in twos and threes, he looked at the corner of a petite figure with his head buried in the stack of books.

"Don't keep your eyes so close to each other when you read, Athena."

The ponytail man walked over and knocked on the table, and said helplessly: "If your myopia increases again, I won't be able to explain to my eldest brother when I go back." ”

"It doesn't affect anything."

Before the petite figure who was bored reading a book could speak, a brown-haired young man with a comb on his back suddenly spoke up next to her.

"Graham's Lady Chelsea, who was notoriously short-sighted in the wizarding world in her youth, did not prevent her from becoming a respected witch."

"Mrs. Chelsea is because of her family blood, so her vision is different from that of normal people, and she is not short-sighted."

The man with the ponytail glared at the young man as he spoke, "And our uncle and nephew are talking, what are you talking about?" ”

"My cousin doesn't care about people when she looks at books, and you don't know it."

The young man replied solemnly: "If I don't answer with you, then you will have to stand here alone and be embarrassed." ”

"It's better than hearing your voice."

The pony-tailed man snorted.

"Honestly, I'm already in silent mourning for the new student you're going to be taught. It's a misfortune to meet a tutor like you. ”

"So why didn't you stay with Vice Dean Rhodes?"

The brown-haired young man changed the subject without changing his face, "Have you heard something you don't like to hear again?" ”

"I just wanted to come over and tell my niece."

The man with the ponytail said meaningfully: "If her future husband is too thick-skinned, the quarrel will be as uncomfortable as a punch on cotton." So it's best not to target this kind of person. ”

"That's right, thick-skinned like that." The young man nodded approvingly.

The response was speechless.

The ponytail man opened his mouth, and wanted to say a few more sarcastic words.

But before he could speak, the petite figure who had been immersed in reading suddenly said a word.

"They're praying."

As she spoke, she looked up at the ponytail man, and slowly pulled a wand from her waist in her hand.

"Who's praying?"

The pony-tailed man was stunned when he saw this, "And, what are you doing with your wand?" ”

"Danger is coming."

The petite figure replied.

Before the words fell, the faces of the two men beside him changed.

But before they could make any moves, there was a powerful squeezing sensation in the air around them, like countless ropes, instantly "winding" them up and down their bodies and unable to move!

The two of them were stunned.

Not only them, but the other students in the cabin here, including the petite figure who had given the warning before, all of them all remained motionless as if they had been frozen in an instant.

It's the same on the outside.

After the invisible restriction suddenly appeared, whether it was the Imperial Air Force flying around it, or the huge number of land forces on the surface.

Even the white airship itself, which was slowly moving in the sky, all stopped on the spot very abruptly!

Time seemed to stand still.

But it's not completely still.

The middle-aged gentleman in the green vest who was still standing in front of the window of the airship maintained a cane posture and could not move.

But his horrified gaze could see that in the sky not far away, a large sea of clouds was gathering like a stirring, slowly rotating around a certain core location, faintly forming a vortex.

And in the depths of this vortex, a dazzling golden light has been quietly born, and it is getting brighter and brighter!
