122 Mellen the Rich
Because it was learned from various sources that "Egg Wilson", who had been missing for more than a week, was successfully rescued.
Many wizarding newspapers in the United Kingdom were prepared to report the incident as a front-page headline.
It's just that in the early hours of the morning, after receiving a breaking news, they hurriedly overturned everything that had been scheduled and redone.
So, as the sun slowly rises on the new day, the wizards see some news that surprises them.
[Suddenly! The remnants of the Imperial Army's encirclement of the Helios Church suffered a crushing defeat, and Prince Nelson died in this incident! 】
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
……
[The imperial forces in the Cape Verde region of Southern Canada have been hit hard, with thousands of dead and wounded troops, morale collapsed, and they are withdrawing overnight! 】
……
[Miracles coming? It is suspected that the remnants of the Helios Church used a mysterious seal to carry out a devastating revenge attack on the Northern Empire! 】
……
[Fort St. Grant collapsed and crashed, and a large number of students unfortunately disappeared in this disaster......]
……
Sensational news is not limited to reporting in the United Kingdom.
Thanks to convenient communication tools, wizards around the world were the first to know about what was happening.
And whatever they had been paying attention to, now they were all attracted when a flood of newspapers reported the news.
Because the news is really exciting.
In fact, the newspaper is not limited to text information, but also some moving photos of relatively Mohu -
The Imperial Army, which is constantly converging from all directions, is overwhelmed by black.
Imperial soldier with a loaded bullet and a gun in his hand.
Riding forward, the high-spirited third prince of the empire, Nelson.
Surrounded and suppressed, the remnants of the Sun God Church were very embarrassed.
and even a white airship that overlooks everything from a high altitude and slowly passes by......
These photos were taken by war correspondents in the wizarding world.
Now, after the explosion of light, a large amount of bloody situation and ruin-like everything left on the scene can be said to be full of visual impact.
A wizarding reporter who was far away and was not restricted by the inexplicable pressure even filmed the whole process of the light brewing from the sea of clouds to the landing and eruption, which attracted a lot of discussion among wizards.
They say it's the destruction of some powerful seal, or the ancient sun god has appeared to punish the Empire for their conspiracy with the Night Church.
It is said that this is the result of the remnants of the Church of the Sun God who sacrificed a large amount of their lives to a certain evil god.
For a moment, there was speculation, and many of them were knowledgeable wizards, who recognized that it seemed to be similar to a knight's defense technique called the Bright Sun.
However, because it is clearly different from the written record, no one can be sure of it.
……
"According to normal historical accounts, this long-lost knight defense technique only has a protective effect, but does not have such a degree of destructive ability."
In Chelsea Manor, Juliana, dressed in a white riding equestrian suit, sat at the dining table and said to her friend:
"It's different from what we've seen in that barren world before, this time it's bigger in scope and more impactful."
"Who do you think caused this?"
The lady sitting across from her asked.
She had now reverted to her usual elegant and glamorous attire, her elbow-length white gloved hands holding silver cutlery, cutting and eating a bloodshot piece of lean meat that appeared to be a steak on her plate.
"Not for sure, but certainly not the one we met."
Juliana replied firmly.
The two had a very unpleasant quarrel last night because of someone's marriage, but it was late at the time, so they didn't argue much about it.
Seeing that they couldn't convince each other, they went to rest.
And early this morning, as if they had forgotten everything that had happened yesterday, they were still close to each other eating breakfast together, and talking about the breaking news by the way.
"But in any case, to be able to induce such a huge amount of energy, this knight who suddenly appeared must be a master who will be difficult for us to resist."
As she spoke, Juliana glanced unconsciously at a newspaper on the dining table.
There is a photograph present on the front of the newspaper that, unlike other photographs on the matter, is static.
Or rather, it's all a picture that a wizard used a spell to extract from the mind of a remnant of the Sun God Church on the scene—
In the picture, a tall knight in gorgeous silver armor stands in front of a group of people, like a majestic mountain, covered in golden light floating and dotted, full of mystery and power.
In front of him were the glow of countless arrows and magical spells, as well as surging armies and Imperial wizards flying in mid-air.
This knight is strong.
They learned through the news channel that the burst of sunlight was completely induced by this knight.
It is said that he suddenly appeared in front of people, very suddenly.
After appearing, everything around them instantly stopped—
Not only those means of attack, but also everyone around them, and even the airship floating in mid-air, could not move.
As a result, the accident caused a large number of casualties.
"I heard your niece was in that crashed airship at the time?"
After Mrs. Chelsea swallowed a piece of food, she asked, "And your second brother?" ”
"They're fine."
Juliana didn't want to mention her niece, so she replied simply:
"The airship crashed, but because of the distance, the students inside were fine, except for some unlucky people who were burned and injured, most of them landed safely."
"It's just that these unscrupulous newspapers didn't report to the newspaper."
The mass disappearance of students at top universities and the fact that nothing happened to the students can certainly cause different news effects.
So everyone thinks they're missing, not safe.
In fact, this is not a lie, and when people have talked about it enough, and then republishes a news that the missing students have found, the public will of course only think that the reporters are following the story truthfully, and then quickly lose interest.
The two didn't talk about it for long either.
Although this incident was very sensational, it was happening on the other side of the world, too far away from the city of Graham, where they were.
The people of the Empire, especially the Imperial Family, are bound to be furious because of this.
Because of the death of a prince, the impact of the incident is likely to even change the political pattern of the entire empire.
But it doesn't have much to do with them.
If it weren't for the fact that this catastrophe was similar to everything they had seen in the desolate world not so long ago, they wouldn't even have had the interest to pay attention—
There are many disasters in the wizarding world every year, such as the explosion of some laboratory, the spread of cursed plagues, and the slaughter of deep-sea races.
It's not uncommon for people to die.
But in reality, it's just Juliana who isn't really interested in it.
Mrs. Chelsea, who knows more about the situation, is unlikely to ignore the possible hidden truth behind this matter.
Unlike Juliana, she knew that her students had received the Flare Light inheritance.
And now, the sudden appearance of a mysterious knight suspected of possessing the means of the Bright Sun is hard not to make her think a lot.
After all, this ability is not a bad street.
Even in ancient times, when it was not lost, only a few people mastered it.
Not to mention contemporary.
However, it is impossible for Madame to guess that this matter has something to do with her students.
After all, her good student was still in the manor last night, and it was impossible for her to run to the other side of the world in the blink of an eye.
What made her wonder was whether this seemingly wiped out Church of the Sun God was showing signs of a resurgence?
Otherwise, how could this long-lost ability appear so frequently?
"Maybe the light of the sun on Merlen's body was passed on to him by this mysterious knight through that library?"
It seemed that someone was robbing her of an apprentice, so Madame frowned unconsciously, and wanted to ask her student how the inheritance came from.
But thinking about what happened last night, she hesitated.
Her original plan was to convince Juliana to talk to her apprentice about it, which would also ease the embarrassment.
But now, my friend doesn't know why, but he strongly opposes this seemingly good proposal.
also said that her eldest brother is a very rigid and serious person, and it must be impossible to look at Mellen who is stunned.
It's hard to say, but without Juliana's help, this family business will be difficult to move forward.
It's not appropriate to talk to students now.
"It's actually not a hurry......"
After a moment of hesitation, Madame finally dismissed the idea of asking now.
What worries her is not only the bad thing she did, but also some strange feelings and thoughts that unconsciously arise when she rested last night.
Certain images and feelings, always resurfaced over and over in the dead of night, seem to have been deeply embedded in the mind and cannot be cleared up.
This made her a little embarrassed, and she couldn't help but feel a pang of shame when she thought of her students.
However, relying on years of cultivation, these chaotic thoughts will not really affect her normal thinking.
Moreover, although the ambiguity with the students made her mood a little messy.
But she has never forgotten that on her daughter's side, there is still a crisis to deal with today.
So the lady raised her eyes to her friend who was sitting opposite and said:
"Guderian will be visiting me this afternoon, and I suspect he is trying to ask Mellen about something related to the Bright Sun."
"It's not suitable for me to meet outsiders right now, so you can help me keep an eye on him."
"What does the Bright Light have to do with their Primordial Shinrito?"
Juliana asked, raising an eyebrow.
She had known this for a long time, because when she was in that barren world, the Truth Cultist named Guderian wanted to run to the children and ask questions.
It's just that she stopped me.
"And, how did you call him to help?"
"A little quid pro quo."
Mrs. Chelsea replied simply, "Also, after this incident, don't forget to go and check my student's body, I can't arrange this matter now, you can go to him yourself." ”
Check your body......
Juliana blinked, but suddenly she wasn't interested in any truth.
She then nodded casually.
"Don't worry, you've told me so, how could I forget?"
Not only will she not forget, but she is even a little impatient.
Because of what happened yesterday, she had a great sense of crisis.
Although these crises were perceived in hindsight, there was no possibility of further development.
But it was a direct reminder that a certain child was not the kind of poor little cabbage that no one cared about.
If you start late, you will easily be gnawed by some pigs that smell and run over.
Therefore, Juliana thinks that she needs to speed up the progress in something......
……
The two witches were eating breakfast in a restaurant somewhere in the manor.
Melun, who is the person concerned, is hiding in the guest bedroom at the moment, staring at a book in his hand, in a state of contemplation.
