"My lord, Mademoiselle has just left Sanophon. β
Fraser Ferrandlin is a red-robed mage obsessed with power.
Handsome appearance, a perfect resume explains how young and promising he is, his arcane synergy rate almost exceeds the highest elf, and he studied under the seventh ring of the Shaolin abbot of the post-80s division of the necromantic department.
What's even more admirable is that aside from the study of Arcane, he is also an excellent politician, and has performed well in several positions, including the negotiations with Agolaron and the outbreak of impeachment xxx, a large-scale rebellion of 100,000 people.
Within DalamΓ³s, he was privately considered a pillar of the family's future.
Of course, as long as the heavy nightmare that hasn't gone away for two hundred years still looms over Searle, this title can't fall on his head.
And that time seemed too far away.
He knew very well how difficult it was to become a successful person in the country of Serre, but fortunately, what he should be doing now was to consolidate his power step by step, and to seriously conduct advanced arcane research.
So when he heard the news from his servants, he was not very happy.
This daughter surnamed Ren annoyed him again.
It seems that since he was a child, this daughter has never satisfied him.
And he's already given her many opportunities.
With no talent for learning arcane arts, he sent her to Bane's church, trying to get the help of the Mafia Church in this way, but Lannie Lou's performance in the Mafia Church made him extremely disappointed, although he obtained Bane's divine powers, but obviously, this inner violence did not allow her to really win Bane's favor, and she was even more ostracized in the Mafia Church, and failed to give Fraser the slightest help.
Well, this plan has somehow fallen through, and it has also led to Frazier's long-term ignorance of this daughter, and this time when he returns, he is furious with another discovery.
His daughter actually lost Bane's favor, and the divine power of God's grace and protection became extremely weak.
This disappointed him again, but disappointed to disappointed, he still found a way to tap into her surplus value.
With the advent of the Giant Divine Soldier, the main battle faction in the Council gradually gained the upper hand, and Odyssilon's people jumped up and down in the Council, saying for a while that they wanted to give the Mullans some color, and that the northern Lysserman was still in civil strife, and now he could reap a lot of benefits by going north, and obscurely hinted that the people of Agolaron had instigated a rebellion in Sissel.
All in all, it's Searle who needs a war.
The whole parliament is filled with this smell.
The emergence of a new force is to be tested, which is a commonplace thing for the Serles who are fanatical about war, and most of the people of the ruling class are born from brutal struggle and elimination, which makes the country full of a surplus of fighting forces, if not poured outward, only by constant internal strife to consume, in order to avoid excessive internal friction, it is very necessary to regularly conduct a foreign war.
This is Odyssillon's usual argument, and in this respect they are not exactly war maniacs, but to those who hold other points of view, it is more of an excuse.
All in all, now Frass and Bouval are on Odyssillon's side, Ream is in a slump due to the defeat he has just suffered, the conservative Focart is alone, and the rest of Daramos has a more ambiguous attitude.
However, according to Fraser's own ideas, it is also necessary to take precautions, and if he can establish a good relationship with the main battle faction in advance, then he will have the opportunity to reap more benefits in future wars.
The 'tool' of building a good relationship, of course, is his worthless 'daughter', the 'prince' of Odyssillon's core bloodline, Lifal Odesilon, served in Sazaha's southeastern army, and he is not yet a wife, he is a good object, and the other party has also shown this willingness.
It's a pity that this disobedient daughter still rejected him, and after seeing each other once, they broke up unhappily.
This made him even more disappointed, and even blamed his father-in-law, old Muir's indulgence, probably because of the surname of Lannielou Ferrandlin.
Leave ...... with a teleportation spell He frowned, he had been controlling Lannielou's whereabouts, but he had no idea that Ren's daughter would be helped by the red-robed mage.
The high-level red robe that can be related to the fifth-order spell is not a generous guy, and Lannilou doesn't seem to have a chance to have anything to do with such a red robe.
"My lord, the one who took the young lady away was the head of the Darren Moore Academy...... Lover. The reporter weighed his words and used such a word to describe the identity of Xia Garina.
"Where are they going?"
"I heard...... They were going to the Hill Hills in the south. β
"Hill ......?" Fraser frowned, remembering that Lannie Lou seemed to have always wanted to go south, and after some information, he began to think about the southern mountains, and then thought of the new red robe who had made a loud noise in Sanophon more than a month ago.
"Well, that disobedient good daughter seems to have been his subordinate......" his eyebrows were deeply knitted, and he didn't know what to think.
He was equally interested in the young mage.
"My lord, Helen Mountain, I'm in trouble now......"
"Trouble?"
"The pirates who fell east into the sea of stars gathered together to try to plunder it, and the bandits from the mountains and some of the Mulan people who had mixed in were also ready to move. β
"You're saying it's about to be ransacked by thousands of thieves?" Fraser Ferrandlin's gaze moved.
"Yes. β
"Interesting. A smile tugged at the corner of the High Ring Mentor's lips, and this was a good opportunity for him to see what kind of person that young man really was.
He can also take this opportunity to think about the strategy for the future, and maybe he can dig out more benefits from it.
Perhaps something more interesting will happen.
...... "You've come at the right time. β
When Garina walked out of the teleportation array in Helen Town, it was already late at night, and the mage looked at the two women who appeared in front of him with interest: "Lady Garina, thank you very much for Mr. Most's help. β
His expression stiffened slightly as his gaze passed the black-robed woman next to Garina, and although most of this woman's face was hidden in the shadow of the hood, it did not prevent the mage from recognizing her at a glance.
He was secretly a little embarrassed, seeing the other party's dress, and he was silent, he was obviously a little embarrassed, so he simply pretended not to know.
Lannilou keenly caught the red-robed mage's momentary pause, and felt an inexplicable pang of annoyance in her heart, but she quickly suppressed it, because under the suppression of that embarrassment, this annoyance did not escalate into anger enough to make her go berserk.
Garina noticed how the two of them reacted to each other, and was amused, and she was a little curious about their relationship, but she was more focused on business than this curiosity.
"Thanks?" she smiled and said, "I don't know, what can we do?" Sure, I have a few wands, a few scrolls, a few gems, but I'm sure you don't necessarily need them. β
"Lord Moster has already shown a show of support by sending you here. The mage smiled, he didn't expect any great assistance, and Lusendir was able to send a messenger, at least to explain:
He supported Penny mentally.
In the indifferent red-robed mage society, this attitude is much stronger than ignoring it.
What's more, Luxendier didn't have too deep a relationship with him.
"Penny, are you ready?" The door opened in a corner, and Garina and Lannielou shifted their gaze to a middle-aged red-robed mage, and also saw a little white lace on the other's neckline.
A Ring Mentor.
"I'm ready, Mentor. Penny got up in agreement, and turned to Garina, "We have an action tonight, I wonder if you two are interested in watching a good show?"
"Action?" Garena and Lanelo looked at each other, then nodded, then asked.
"What action?"
"Just come out with us. The mage smiled and led the group out of the mansion.
The militia gathered outside, and more than two hundred people were woken up in the middle of the night, hurriedly putting on their armor and arranging their clothes, and some of them were called up before they had slept enough, and two hundred people gathered and looked at the mage who came out of the mansion with wide eyes.
"Lord Jenvas. Hughes saluted Penny's teacher, "You're here." β
"Just arrived. The middle-aged mage replied, not saying much.
"Penny, what's your plan?" Hughes looked at Penny strangely, and the militiamen and the two daughters of Garina also looked at the mage with puzzled eyes.
With only two days left until the final attack, what more operations are there to do now?
"Of course, they went into the mountains to attack the bandits. Penny said lightly, and ordered the Knight of Ser to bring out a cauldron from the mansion, in which a whole pot of sobering potions was boiling.
Drinking this stuff will allow the soldiers to get rid of the problem of lack of sleep and fight bravely.
"What?" everyone was taken aback.
"Don't be surprised, guys, why are we waiting for someone to fight us?" said the mage, "Compared to more than two thousand pirates, those bandits in the mountains are weaker, we have enough strength to defeat them, and now, they are waiting for the war in two days, and they never imagined that we would attack at this time."
We get there at dawn, and they are bound to be routed. β
This plan was well thought out, because the militia didn't even know about it beforehand, so it was impossible for the annihilators to have time to inform the thieves in the mountains, and he and his mentor had used a spell to confirm that the town was not being spied on - which was also normal, and it was already nightfall.
When the militia heard this, they were stunned for a while, and then they all nodded suddenly, thinking that what the mage said made sense.
Hughes frowned, the specific news from the mountains had not reached here, and the townspeople did not yet know about the involvement of the Mullins - after all, this was relatively confidential information, and it was not surprising to hear Panny's words with such confidence.
After a battle with pirates the day before yesterday, these militiamen were very confident in their combat effectiveness.
Hughes couldn't help but admire Penny even more, so that he mobilized the strength of the army, and even more admired the bold plan of this colleague, as long as this raid was successful, not only would there be one less enemy, but the morale of the militia would also be greatly increased.
It's just that such a surprise attack can really be won in the face of the army of the Mullans?
When he saw James Washi and remembered what Penny had told him, he immediately looked forward to it, maybe there was not much suspense.
It's just that Garina and Lanelu frowned secretly.
It's a risky plan.
But they also admired Penny's boldness.
In this case, how dare you take the initiative?
The militiamen drank the sobering potion and, under the guidance of the mage, walked briskly out of the town gate and onto the mountain road.
The awakened townsfolk watched in amazement as they disappeared into the mountains, and their mood became very apprehensive.
