Chapter 144: The Beginning of Chaos

In 440 A.D., when Rainon was thirteen years old, he spent the last semester of elementary teaching at Phelps College. The kingdoms of Cox and Liaojin in the eastern Andes finally surrendered to Kaesong, Byzantium, after years of war, and the puppet governments of the two countries bowed to Byzantium and became vassals of Byzantium. Eleven of the fourteen eastern states have been allied, and Andorra, a nominally neutral state, has long extended an olive branch to Byzantium...... Uh, no, to be precise, he secretly joined the Eastern Alliance, and the only neutral countries left are the dwarven country of Lombbaton and the artist's paradise Istan.

The dwarves are strong, but they are too small to fear. Domestine is a group of helpless literati and artists, and its military strength is almost equal to zero, and if it were not for his extremely high international reputation, it would have been annexed by the Eastern Alliance long ago. As a result, the Byzantine forces were unprecedentedly strong, seriously threatening the balance of power between the east and the west, and the Western League, under pressure from the Eastern League, finally resorted to the use of force against neutral states in the western Andes.

(Lombbaton: A neutral country in the eastern Andes, a country of dwarves who are heavy drinkers and skilled in forging.) The current king, Mivanoto Orio Groin. The capital city of Matangin, the plateau is covered with snow all year round, which means the king of the hills. )

(Iran: A neutral country in the eastern Andes, a country full of culture and art, known as an artist's paradise, and enjoys an extremely high reputation internationally.) Parliamentary republic, so there is no king, the capital is Istanbul. )

(Dwarves: The sturdy dwarves who live on the snow-capped Matangin Plateau are an ancient race on the continent of Middle-earth.) They have yellow-brown hair and blue eyes. The long-lived dwarves live far beyond the life of a human being, and almost never trim their beards throughout their lives, so their long beards are often dragged to the ground like mops, and they are extremely paranoid, stubborn, and greedy, with an incomparable thirst for gold and alcohol. Since ancient times, the dwarves have mastered the most advanced crafts and forging techniques on the continent of Middle-earth. Conservatively, they passed on the excellent skills of their ancestors from generation to generation, and their thirst for gold and wine led them to constantly improve their handicraft and forging skills, so as to exchange gold and wine with foreigners. Dwarves are natural warriors, small but powerful, extremely resistant to blows, skilled in the use of heavy weapons such as battle axes and hammers, and naturally resistant to magic, allowing them to defeat powerful elves in prehistoric race wars. )

(Dwarve-Elf Race War: No one knows exactly how this war took place.) According to the scarce prehistoric records within the dragons and dwarves: as early as prehistoric times, the elves and dwarves were widely divided on the Middle-earth continent, and the races were harmonious and friendly. Until the extremely stubborn dwarves stretched their greedy grip to every inch of the continent of Middle-earth, they burned the grasslands, cut down the forests, dug mountains and ditches, and turned over almost the entire continent's soil. A large amount of arable land has been destroyed, forests have been burned, and the natural ecology has been severely damaged, leaving animals and elves homeless. The elves, who love life and nature, repeatedly negotiate with the dwarven king Dane Orio Groyin to no avail, so the elves who can't bear it anymore launch an all-out war against the dwarves. The beginning and end of the war is unknown, but according to ancient legends, this race war was fought intermittently for more than 300 years, affecting the entire continent of Middle-earth. Humans, orcs, and dragons have all been involved in this great battle. Eventually, the elves were defeated, and a large number of elves retreated to the western Andes, where they established a kingdom called Birchni, and the dwarves suffered heavy losses and retreated back to their birthplace, the Matangin Plateau, where the most fertile humans on Middle-earth took advantage of the opportunity to occupy a large amount of land. Later, the dwarves shook hands with the elves under the mediation of the powerful and peace-loving Minotaurs, ending the absurd war. The war may be over, but the hatred between the dwarves and the elves will never fade. The race war between the dwarves and the elves was a great disaster in the history of Middle-earth, but in a way, it made humanity what it is today. —Hucorio Tacitus)

(Dane Orio Groin: Unknown year of life and death, prehistoric king of dwarves, is a highly controversial figure in Middle-earth history.) The dwarves named him the dwarven god of war because he led the dwarves to defeat the elves. He was hated by all the Gentiles (except humans) for being the one who provoked the race war. )

(Hucorio Tacitus: male, Byzantine, 307 BC ~ 220 BC, one of the famous historians in the history of Middle-earth.) He wrote many famous historical works during his lifetime, but a large number of them were lost due to historical wars, and only some fragments have been handed down to the world. )

Jobs Campus, recess time. The bright sunlight still shines into the classroom as usual, bringing light and warmth to the children who are learning in the classroom. The school is still the same school, the classroom is still the same classroom, and the desk is still the same desk...... Everything seemed so calm and peaceful, just something was missing.

In the past, there was always a lot of laughter and laughter between classes, and the hallways, playgrounds, and campus streets were bustling with students hurrying in a hurry, but now everything is empty, and occasionally two or three people will pass by, but their faces are full of panic.

Luxuriously decorated headmaster's room. Mike Pitt paced back and forth with his hands rubbing his hands in his pipe, which he didn't know was long gone. There was a "poof" sound, and the communication brazier placed on the coffee table burst into flames, and the flames formed a translucent human face, which was Edward Wood.

"Good morning, Mr. Pete!" Wood's face swayed back and forth in the brazier.

"Good morning. Principal Pete's tone was cold, and it was clear that he was in a terrible mood right now.

"I have good news for you. ”

"What's the news?"

"Halfway through my class this morning. ”

"Whew, do you really have good news for me?" said Principal Pete with an angry laugh and a mocking tone, "those who drop out, those who take personal leave, and those who pretend to be sick...... All sorts of excuses!"

"Because of the war......"

"A bunch of rich second generations who are afraid of death and second generations of officials who are afraid of death are all his (river crabs) mothers...... I'm afraid of dying to study at a Mao Military Academy!" As he spoke, Principal Pete became more and more excited, and he pulled out his beloved pipe and slammed it to the ground.

"Mr. Headmaster, the conscription ......"

"I've already handed it over to Ms. Severly, and you class teachers are cooperative, and the recruitment work is really difficult. Damn (river crab),It's really not okay for all students of all ages to fill the army!Hmm...... If you are not old enough, let them do as they wish!" he said, grabbing the pale hair, "Let's go, those who ask for leave, those who ask for leave, those who conscript, conscription...... The damn school is gone. Just close the door!"

"Close, wow, I haven't had a long vacation in a long time......"

"Do you think you can have a vacation when the school is closed? All the battle mages in the school are fully recruited!"

"I'm @#¥% (River Crab!River Crab!)......" Wood yelled!

"Did you hear that?" Jerry sat down at his desk with a stack of newspapers in the study room.

"What did you hear?" asked Renon boredly, flipping through the book.

"There is going to be a war, and both the Western Alliance and the Eastern Alliance have declared Arroyo Constantine to be the mastermind of the attack on the Dragon Canyon, and Master Constantine and the Alliance have reported the murder of the King of Andorra. ”

"Do you believe it?"

"Hongguoguo's frame-up!" Jerry folded the newspaper and slammed it on the table, making a "pop" sound. (Reader C: What's inside?People on the road of Middle-earth also use Internet terms?The author is Hongguoguo's contempt for my IQ!)

"Yes! This is not only a frame-up, but also a conspiracy! Everything is manipulated by Byzantium behind the scenes. Saying that, Ruinon's face became more and more gloomy.

"Ruinon, did you find it, why are there so few people coming to class today, only halfway there, and the campus is a lot deserted. ”

"Well, I see. ”

"Sarah and Angus didn't come, and the fat Charlie could see him everywhere. Jerry's little eyes glanced around.

Sarah Abraham...... Hearing the name, Ronon's body trembled slightly, and he just wanted to say something to Jerry, but as soon as the words reached his throat, he swallowed it back.

"Little mischievous, sit down for me!" Mr. Wood's voice came from outside the door, and he drove a wave of students back from the hallway back to the classroom like ducks. "I have something important to announce!"

Hearing Teacher Wood say this, all the students held their breath, and more than a dozen pairs of clear and bright eyes stared at Edward Wood.

"I am now solemnly announcing that Phelps College is officially on indefinite vacation beginning today. ”

The students were very happy to hear the word "holiday", but the word "indefinite" made them puzzled.

Looking at the puzzled faces below, Mr. Wood explained: "Because of the war, teachers and students of the age of the Horps Military Academy must join the army......! Uh, that's all. ”

"How can this be done? During the war, what is most needed is talent, how can schools be closed?" asked Bella Kent, the class leader, confused.

"Because of the war, private schools have to be closed. A battle mage like me has to join the army, and of course this joining the army is not to be a soldier but to be an instructor. All military-related training and teaching during the war was arranged by the state, so those who wanted to continue their studies as battle mages could sign up at the Royal Military Headquarters, and students who just wanted to graduate could now be issued diplomas. Well...... If you want to study as a non-battle mage, you can apply for further study at our partner school. As he spoke, Mr. Wood took out a thick stack of documents from his bag, "The relevant documents are here, you all take them home and discuss them with your parents." Of course, I can make a decision and give me feedback immediately, and submit it in a week at the latest. ”

As soon as Mr. Wood's words fell, the classroom exploded.

"Quiet! I have one more thing to announce, if you want to sign up for the army, you can go to me and Director Severly......"

"Ruinon, do you want to sign up for the army, you can not only receive excellent training, but also defend your family and country, if you are lucky, you can ...... to build meritorious deeds," Jerry clenched his hands into fists, his eyes lit up, and he turned his head excitedly to Ruinon and said.

Ruinon shook his head and said indifferently, "No...... I have other plans. ”

"Ruinon...... Hey, you're not from Kevin Las, so you don't care about defending your country. You are Konstantin's apprentice, you are already a nobleman, and you don't care about meritorious deeds......"

"No! join the army, I will participate...... It's just that before that I have other plans. Renon shook his head again and said, while he thought to himself: I have now gained a new amount of power, and the current magical civilization on the Middle-earth continent is of little use to me, and signing up for the army cannot improve my strength. As for defending Kevin Russ...... With my current strength, I will also be slaughtered on the battlefield, although I have defeated more than twenty griffon knights before, but it was under the protection of the flames, and I was seriously injured before killing the griffin knight, if I were allowed to face the griffin knight on my own, I would have died a long time ago. Improving his strength is the first priority, and after that, he will not be held back by Grandpa Konstantin, and he will not be allowed to leave the flames to face the Black Dragon Knight alone...... Fight off the Western Alliance and get revenge on Byzantium!
