Siegel believed that Huck and Manna would take care of the defense, so he went to Fezak first. When Siegel returned, the old man said, "Now I am relieved," and then fell asleep, so that nothing was said. Now when Siegel Jae looked for him, he had just woken up and finally regained his full spirits.

"It only took one day to settle the battle, and it seems that the song was not right at all. Fezak smiled, and the surroundings of his face were stretched: "Lord Lord, you don't want to leave the territory for so long in the future, you can't live without you here." ”

"I don't want to. Siegel smiled helplessly, but agreed anyway. The Confederates were stunned by Siegel's swift and precise combination of punches, and Sir Brown relinquished the advantage. If Siegel had returned two days late, and Felton's catapult had begun its work, the walls of Myr might not have lasted much longer. He told Fezak about the idea, but the old man disagreed.

"You've put more thought into Myr than anyone else thinks. Even if the walls are lost, the inhabitants of the castle can evacuate along the secret passages. The castle also has a testing ground for the Mage Federation, a magical elemental circle, and Modesty. How could they possibly take the city of Myr?" the old man then said, "I don't know anything else, but I know that the entire city cost nearly 700,000 gold coins, but counting the building materials supported by the dwarf Irinth, it is worth more than a million gold coins. How can a castle of such a cost have such a scale, except for a few royal capitals?"

"I've spent my money well, but I've worked hard for you. "There's a lot going on after this victory," Siegel said. Distribution of loot. Resumption of production. Trade routes reopened. The Top of Mora is about to be closed. Entering a state of combat alert will have a great impact on the goods on the front line of the cloak avenue, and may even change the commercial status quo in the Old and New Worlds. ”

"Is there such a thing?" said Fezak, rubbing his beard and thinking for a moment, "If the gates of Mora are really closed, the price of all ores, gems, and metal products in the New World will rise, which is good news for us. Moreover, the fortress of the Ore Avenue is still standing, and those caravans participating in the territory of the coalition should collect taxes if they want to pass through it. ”

"You remember to ask the Brown family to provide a list. Make a list of caravans that are close to them, and start collecting gate taxes. Siegel said, "But don't rush this matter first, it's better to start after a month or two." Do you see what I mean?"

Fezak nodded, and then said to Siegel: "I can't lie down now, I have to get up and hurry up, don't let that Brown kid take more and take more." The dead horses should also be put to good use, and disposed of while they are still fresh, and made into sausages and the like. Dwarf Ding Bao recently invented a new thing called canned food, which is said to preserve food for a long time. It's almost time to catch up with the mage's space bag. ”

"He always has new ideas. Siegel smiled and said, "One-eyed daddy, you have to pay attention to your body." Find a young person to do all the miscellaneous things, you should raise them. ”

"My lord, I have found a few smart people who can write and calculate, and I will show you in a few days. ”

After hearing the news of the victory in the war, the residents hiding in the basement cheered in unison and praised the lord's bravery. Sure enough, as the one-eyed father expected, many people began to sing the song "One Day War" again.

They would love to start celebrating like this, but there's actually something important to do: clean up the dead on the battlefield. Whether it is cremation or burial, they must not be exposed to the wilderness. Not to mention the terrible smell, the threat of the plague is real. Fortunately, there are two priests in Myr City, and their magic can reduce the chance of plague and prevent the undead problem caused by the large number of dead.

Standing on the ramparts, looking at the battlefield in front of him, Elint seemed to hear the sound of blades clashing, the deafening horn of the charge, mixed with the shouts of the people and the neighing of the horses.

But these voices do not belong to this battle, but to the history buried deep in his memories. Arriving in the New World, defecting to a relative of the Jewel Clan at the Top of Mora, and then becoming the second spokesperson step by step, he has almost forgotten the experience of fighting in the Old World. He had deceived himself and might have been able to relive that feeling during his adventures, but now he found that the real battlefield was something else.

Siegel had already bid him farewell in advance, lest the dwarven messenger with the war mobilization order summon them away at any moment, and it would be too late to say goodbye in a hurry. Fortunately, this time it was victorious, and with the help of the mage's invisible barrier, the sneak attack achieved fruitful results and avoided casualties caused by the onslaught. The dwarves brought to the battlefield only need simple cultivation to be able to live again. Such a battle example made the dwarf Irint understand that it only took a few mages like Siegel to influence the development of the battle.

Dwarves have their own tactics, but few are willing to improve them. They are too proud, too stubborn, like a mountain that stands tall, and thinks that it will never need to change. However, even the strongest mountain ranges will be affected by ice, snow and flowing water, and gradually change their form.

Closing the top of Mora, I don't know if Siegel understands the meaning. He was a dwarf, and there were many things he couldn't say, even about the brave at the top. He had a vague premonition that the westward dwarves and Siegel could do great things together.

He closed his eyes and prayed to the god of the dwarves, wishing his clan prosperity and his friends safe. He looked at the Walled Mountains and prayed that this great mountain would bless all the dwarves. In the dimness, a vague picture appeared in Elint's mind, as if the top of Mora had risen into the air, floating like a cloud. It ascended higher and higher, higher and higher, until it left the New World, left this world. The Dwarven Patronus blessed the mountain until he introduced it to his kingdom and lived with the other Dwarves.

This is an illusion after all, how can something as huge as the city wall mountain range fly?Elint shook her head, thinking that she was indeed old. He left the walls just in time to see a dwarf riding a lizard coming from the north, with the banner of the Top of Mora behind him.

This time. Siegel is in the library. Talk to Edith, the half-elf. In exchange for supporting Heim Territory. Siegel must share what he knows about the Knox Society.

"Tell me, Waterdeep didn't build Knox's magic tower, did it?"

The half-elf shook his head: "Archmage Casper has always had this idea, but he has not received the approval of the Lion King, so he can't carry it out. In order to prevent the new magic tower from interfering with the Tri-Peaks Tower, it is a perfect reason that no one can refute. ”

"Did you know that the magic tower they've built has a powerful psychic effect?"

Edith answered the question, but did not answer: "The Mage Federation was separated from the Mage Guild and came to the New World to conduct research. Although there are some academic differences, the two are connected by a teleportation array. Actually, it's still one. ”

Siegel frowned, wondering why this matter had been involved in the Mage Guild.

"The Knox Guild isn't the first day it was founded, and they're an old organization that's been around for nearly a thousand years. However, he was removed from the Mage Guild five hundred years ago because he tried to change by trying to become the de facto leader of the Mage Guild through mind control. It was a terrible mage battle that taught Knox that mind-control spells were fatally flawed and incapable of victory. Since then, they have gone underground, hiding themselves and disappearing. Never looked for trouble again, until now. ”

"The school city is for the king and the lord. In fact, it is also part of the Mage Association, just like the Mage Federation. Most people don't know the connection, and only the management mages who participate in the council and those they approve of know the secrets. Every once in a while, the Mage Guild splits, each time sending out people who are more radical and active in their thinking. Both in order to constantly update ideas and ensure development, but also to absorb dangerous elements. ”

Siegel probably understood what Edith meant: "The Mage Federation has long been wary of the Knox Association, and did it follow the arrangement of the Mage Guild to agree to admit it to the Association?"

"In addition to the risk prevention you mentioned, control the events that may arise within the mage and do not have an external impact. We also need to know how Knox re-emerged and raised the mind control spell to such a level. It's not just a matter of right or wrong, it's more about enlightening other disciplines and enhancing the power of spell spells. ”

"Naykos. Seegal believes that good and evil, right and wrong, take precedence over spells, so he interrupts Edith: "Naegos wants to collect and create Flame Soul Crystals, and sees the Wraith as a resource. Knox was their thug and vanguard. ”

Edith jerked to his feet, then sat down slowly, his thoughts wandering away for a moment before they retracted. "It doesn't make sense. Our world is still expanding, and it has only been how many years since the emergence of the New World, how can it attract Nakus?"

"You already knew?"

"Some archmages are able to travel to the Otherworld, and they bring back knowledge that includes Nakus, as you will find out when you carefully study the books of other planes. However, we don't know about the relationship between Knox and Knox, we have always thought of Knox as a homegrown organization and have never thought to the outer world. Moreover, Naekos is the scavenger of the dead world, like a maggot that digests a corpse, and rarely harms the good flesh that is full of vitality. The world is still expanding, not decaying, how can it attract them?"

"Maybe they've changed their tastes, maybe they've changed their strategy, but they're undoubtedly behind it. Siegel said in a firm tone, "I boarded the Void Ship, met the Juggernaut, and escaped using the portal on the Void Ship. The origin of all these adventures is the bronze gate on the top floor of the Red Magic Tower of Fort Hub. ”

Edith laughed suddenly, "You almost lied to me. I don't know where you heard the terms, Void Ship, Juggernaut, Naykos, and then combined them into an interesting story. If you have seen the Juggernaut, how can you come back alive?Mr. Chuckman, the strongest psychic mage in history, did not support him for more than a minute after seeing the Juggernaut in a foreign land, and then he was mentally confused, his elemental energy was uncontrollable, and he burned himself to death. ”

Siegel realizes that Edith doesn't believe in himself and that he must have proof. Transforming into a skeleton warrior, the fact that the bones have plasma tattoos can't be said, so what's the best to use?

He pulled out a Flame Crystal from the space pouch, then took out the mace used by the Golden Skull Warrior. Edith saw these things and obediently closed his mouth. When he saw Siegel use rune technology to charge the mace and use a powerful impact at any time, the surprise in his heart was far more exaggerated than his wide open mouth.

"The Knox Guild has opened up spells to the Mage Federation, but it doesn't include the knowledge of the Flame Soul Crystal. Siegel put down the mace, straightened his mage robes, and said, "The information has been shared, now we can get down to business." ”

"Knox's spell book, the magic circle pattern of the Red Magic Tower, the control technology of the Fire Soul Crystal, the drawings of the elemental rune circle, the application principle of the plasma energy of Nagus, and the blueprints of my newly improved spell circle, I don't know what kind of exchange the Mage Guild can give me. ”

"I need to go to the Mage Guild and report this before I can answer you," Edith said, "but spell books, magic equipment, and even spell guides are all possible." If you have the time, it's best to go with you to the Mage Guild, where you have more options and a more intuitive understanding of the power of the Guild. ”

"No, I'll leave this matter to you. Siegel smiled, "If I appear in the Great Teleportation Array of the Three-Peak Tower, I don't know what the Knox Guild will do to me." I still like to be in my own home. ”

"If they want to hurt you, you're not safe here. Edith advised, "Why don't you take your family to the Mage Guild, or find a place for you to live in the school city, and the society will ensure your safety." ”

"As long as the guild destroys Knox, I'm not safe, why bother?"

"Life and death, birth and destruction, are not easy decisions. Edith said: "Five hundred years ago, the Society spared Knox a way out, and only punished him for his actions, but retained a little spark of thought. Now, if there is a fight, unless Knox attacks the Mage Guild or the Academy, it will still not be killed. The guild is not a temple, the mage is not infidels, and it is important to maintain the necessary vitality. ”

From this point of view, the Mage Guild, the School City, or Knox all have the same problem: pride. They believe that their abilities are enough to control everything, that all tricks are only temporary, and that victory is always theirs. Sigge gradually understood that the only one who could protect his wife and children was himself in the end. (To be continued......)
