Section 73 The Golden Lion

Waldenberg is northeast of the Rotten City, one of the few hilly areas in the Black Zed.

Stretches of jungle and swamps stretch here, gradually being occupied by mountains and winding paths carved out of the uneven hills.

Ten years ago, there would have been a plethora of merchants and wizards' carriages coming and going on this path. Compared to the more independent Scorpion Society and the Silver Light of the neighboring Rotten City, Waldenberg and the Rotten City were more closely connected, and with the support of thriving commerce, Waldenberg was once the second largest gathering place of wizards in the Black Lands after the Rotten City.

Based on some of the information described in the Book of Silver, plus Lance's own information from the Silver Star Alliance, a history of Waldenberg was slowly taking shape in his mind, turning into a complete story.

The owner of Waddenberg, the founder of the famous wizarding organization [Golden Lion] in the Black Lands, is a wizard named Lauchron. Laughren is proficient in summoning and has a number of powerful wizard pets, just like the Tree Worshippers of Ferendor, compared to the average Level 2 wizard who can only have one wizard pet.

Although they are called pets, in fact, these creatures were wild and untamable monsters before they were subdued by Lauchran. Among them, the most notorious is a golden lion from the [Little Heavenly God Realm]. This ferocious monster is not only the source of Lauchlan's nickname, but also the basis for the name of the wizarding organization of the same name he created.

Waldenberg was founded thirty years ago by Laughlen and his wife. Later, with the strength of Laughlen and the Golden Lion, the organization gradually grew in size and developed very rapidly. It is said that the Golden Lion himself received the knowledge of an ancient wizard, and that an underground vault in Waddenberg contains not only a large number of witchcraft materials and precious treasures, but also countless knowledge.

Laughren himself was a gifted wizard, and he used some of his knowledge to reward members for joining the Order, and soon, a large number of wild wizards in the Black Lands joined the Golden Lions League after his own assessment. In just five or six years, the Golden Lions League has become one of the most powerful organizations in the Black Plains, second only to the Flower Scorpion Society and the Silver Light, which have stood for many years.

Originally, according to such momentum. The Golden Lions League should continue to grow at a rapid pace. However, about seven or eight years ago. A Smock poison dragon enters the realm of the Black Lands from the northeast, a juvenile poison dragon who is trying to find some magical plants with powerful toxins to eat.

Unfortunately, a poisonous berry grove planted by Lauchren at the rear of Walddenberg attracted the attention of the poisonous dragon. Without the knowledge of the wizards of the Golden Lions League. The Smok dragon broke into Waddenberg. Not only madly devouring the fruits of the poisonous berry forest. At the same time, it also releases a terrifying poisonous mist.

Overnight, half of the low-level wizards of Waldenburg died tragically!

By the time the golden lion who was cultivating the secret method came out of the secret room with a blue face, the poisonous dragon had already destroyed the entire Waddenburg. A large number of wizards fled in terror.

Laughlan summons the Golden Lion. After a big battle with the poisonous dragon, although he finally drove the uninvited poisonous dragon away, he and the golden lion were also injured by the venom of the poisonous dragon, and his body was full of toxins that could not be dispersed. In order to combat these toxins, Lauchran's mana is consumed most of the time, and as time passes, these toxins have penetrated deep into his bone marrow.

He lost the ability to cast spells. Although he is revered as the founder of the Golden Lion, his once loyal men continue to serve him and vow to rebuild Waldenburg.

However, this qiē could not avoid the weakening of Waddenberg. From then on, Lauchren rarely appeared in front of outsiders, and everything in Waddenburg was handed over to his eldest son, Bard. Because in that poisonous dragon invasion, he not only lost a lot of wealth, but also lost his favorite wife.

People thought that he would be silent like this, but they didn't expect that in this conflict between Waldenberg and the Scorpion Society, the elderly golden lion actually came to the fore again.

Faced with his desperate daughter, he resolutely rejected the envoy of the Flower Scorpion Society, and at the same time entrusted a friend in the Silver Light to issue a mission, relying on the wealth accumulated by the Golden Lion League for many years, he recruited free wizards, and he was a posture to have a good fight with the Flower Scorpion Society.

Such an attitude immediately angered the Flower Scorpion Society, which had always regarded itself as the overlord of the Kurosawa Land. The war between the two sides is on the verge of breaking out.

......

"According to the information given by the Silver Star Alliance, in this war, Waldenburg is obviously at an absolute disadvantage. Even if the Golden Lion can recruit some free wizards, it is far from the Flower Scorpion Society in terms of hard power. It is said that this time the Flower Scorpion Society dispatched twelve law enforcement teams equipped with standard equipment, each law enforcement team is composed of four high-level apprentices, and in addition, the upper echelons of the Flower Scorpion Society also dispatched four second-level early stage wizards, such a skill is also unique in the Black Ssaw. ”

Lance sat on the magic carpet, calmly analyzing the information at hand.

The power of the Flower Scorpion Society is so strong, and the Wadenberg side is not optimistic. According to the information he got from the Silver Star Alliance, there was not a single second-level wizard on the Waldenberg side except for the Golden Lion himself!

And the elderly golden lion has been plagued with poison for many years due to well-known reasons, and has lost its ability to cast spells!

This situation is almost one-sided. Lance estimated that even if some people were tempted by the high rewards that the Golden Lion Alliance would give, they would not dare to take on the task because they were afraid of the power of the Scorpion Society. Moreover, the vast majority of the wild wizards in the silver light are first-level wizards, and it is difficult to play a decisive role.

However, it was precisely because of this situation that Reims decided to participate in the war, and chose the side of Waddenburg.

"At the moment, the Golden Lions League is the underdog, and they need help urgently. Although I don't have much second-level sorcery at hand, it is also a great reinforcement for them, which can increase the confidence of my subordinates and the recruited first-level wizards. What's more, I have a dragon killing arrow and a magic flying needle, even if a second-level wizard from the Flower Scorpion Society comes forward, he can wrestle his wrist......"

Lance thought to himself: "The icing on the cake is always better than the charcoal in the snow." A wizarding organization like Waddenberg must have a lot of good stuff on hand, and maybe like the Silver Light, there are some witchcraft learning scrolls in the Golden Lions League, and if Lauchren can pay me enough, it doesn't hurt to be a thug once in a while. ”

With the Boots of the Thunder Elves, Lance was not afraid of the wizards of the Scorpion Society. As long as you stay cautious and keep an eye on it at all times, don't be controlled by the second-level wizard's spells. As for the other party's first-level wizards, they are basically the targets of the door to kill Lance. The previous few fights have thoroughly proven that multiple molten fire rays combined with Hawkeye's style of play are a deadly nemesis for a low-level wizard.

The magic carpet was moving fast, and suddenly it came out of the clouds. Below was a rolling hill of highlands, and suddenly, a flock of wire crows flew up from the trees in the hills.

"Quack!"

The crows were clearly coming for Lance, and they surrounded them with a great noise, flapping their wings and making unpleasant calls from their beaks.

Lance frowned, and at this moment, a red-eyed crow with red eyes spoke:

"Wizards outside of Waldenberg, please note that this place has been sealed off by the Scorpion Society, and if you break through the blockade without permission, you will be killed by the Scorpion Society's law enforcement team!"

"Your Excellency, please go back, the power of the Flower Scorpion Society is not something that the Golden Lion can resist, this is destined to be a one-sided slaughter. Joining Waddenberg at this time is a foolish move to put one's own life and death at risk. ”

The crow threatened in a loud voice.

Lance sneered: "The blockade is here, does the Flower Scorpion Society really think that the Black Scorpion Land is their backyard?"

"Sir, please don't ......" The crow flapped his wings, and before he could finish his sentence, countless orange-yellow rays burst out of the magic carpet!

Quack!

The crows let out a terrible scream, and their bodies fell one after another as they were shot through countless holes by magic needles.

Lance watched the crows fall, thought for a moment, and lowered the magic carpet.

"I didn't expect the Scorpion Society to start blocking the route around Waddenberg. Then there should be a considerable number of wizards who have taken the task, and under the intimidation of these clead crows, they will choose to turn back...... Even if the rest are ready to break through the blockade of the Flower Scorpion Society, they may not succeed. In the end, there are probably not many wizards who can reach Waddenburg safely. ”

Lance chose to walk into Waldenburg to see if he could help a few more wizards along the way. He himself is not afraid of the people of the Flower Scorpion Society, but other low-level wizards may not be.

He walked among the undulating mountains and forests, and soon there were some figures and fighting voices in front of him.

Lance opened Hawkeye and found that there were six wizards casting spells in front of him, and their enemies were a group of hydras numbering up to a dozen heads!

......

Waddenberg, a quaint study.

The old man sat quietly at his desk, his face an unnatural blue and his forehead full of wrinkles that the years had written down with a carving knife himself.

His right hand rested on the desk, his index and middle fingers tapping rhythmically on the tabletop.

At the table, a tall man was excitedly saying, "Father, we can't do this!"

"You're going to bury the Waddenberg inheritance! We can't go to war with the Scorpion Society, they'll destroy us!"

The old man said softly, "Don't start a war with the Flower Scorpion Society, then, just sit and wait for them to come and destroy us?"

The man exclaimed, "We can make peace with them!" and we can give the wild seed to the other ......" (to be continued......
