"How could he possibly be allowed to climb on top of my head?"

If there was anyone within the Wizards of the Coast who would have such an idea of Penn Diesel's actions, it would be Devan Baklaw.

After being reprimanded by old Bucklaw, the lord disappeared for a long time, and he had always chosen to be out of sight and out of mind about the wizard - after all, when he knew that his abilities and small movements were not worth mentioning in front of Pan Diesel , he also chose to ignore the disgusting fellow, although his ass still hurt occasionally, but he temporarily stopped the idea of revenge.

Or rather, he couldn't find a suitable way to vent his anger.

Obviously, now that Pan Diesel's actions at the association meeting have given him a way to vent, he has had the opportunity to make his enemies a little uncomfortable.

Especially now that there was a person who was not very happy with the outcome of the meeting and was babbling and complaining across from him.

"Oh, Devon, you know, that plan looks pretty good, but if we do get caught up in it, we're going to get into trouble with those vampires... You should know the mind of that wizard. "Hugh Marek, President Banksy's secretary sighed as he poured a light red sè wine in one hand." But he will definitely méng a lot of people, there are definitely not many wizards in the association who can think of this, most of them only care about their own research and the benefits and materials they can get, and it is too late to regret it when they are dragged into the war by that wizard. ”

"You're so clever, Marek, those wizards are short-sighted idiots. "Devon Bucklaw looked at Shomarek with admiration;" But why don't you break him?"

Shumarek's expression changed for a moment, and he shook his head; How many smart people can see through this person's calculations? Even if some people understand it, they still have the idea of taking advantage of the opportunity, but once they are involved, how difficult is it to not do anything?"

"So we're going to debunk this man's tricks. Devon Baklau seemed to move for a moment.

"Oh, forget it. Shomarek waved his hand and lowered his head in a timid manner; I can't get into trouble with that gentleman because of that. ”

"Ah............... Devon Bucklaw's eyebrows raised... I had the intention to sarcastically mock the secretary's timidity, but in the end, I let out a smug sneer with three points of contempt, and turned around and walked out of the room.

Xiu Marek raised his eyelids and watched the gentleman leave, the glint in his pupils gradually becoming a little colder.

In the days that followed, there were occasional visits to the Coastal Society's mages... In the name of exposing the conspiracy of the outsider Yīn, he added fuel to the fire to smear Pan Diesel's plan, and although the lobbying wizards were careful to hide the news, all signs pointed the finger at the Divin Bacelau, a scheming wizard who had left too many flaws, and after a little inquiry, the wizards of the Coast Society knew that this man had had a rivalry with Pan Diesel.

However, this kind of lobbying has had a considerable effect, at least these wizards have noticed some of the tricks behind Penny's plan, but there are still many wizards who are envious of the benefits they might get from this plan - you know... The Dragon Coast Association is just a small and medium-sized group among the various wizarding organizations in Faeron, and the scale of operation is shabby, and even the members of it can't make a lot of money, although Penny's Haikou in the plan is not big, but they have calculated and consulted with relevant people... We all know that the potential in this plan is quite huge.

Shortly after this mass lobbying, and seemingly as a response to this machievous, at the next meeting of the Coastal Society, President Tyran Banks, Elder Shawbrandt, and Elder Miria announced the start of the program and appointed Penn Diesel as acting vice president to preside over the scheme, much to the shock of many wizards.

The role of leadership at this time is enormous.

Many wizards had an idea, and since President Banks and the two elders had taken the lead in this project, it was clear that they agreed with Penn Diesel... Outside of arcane research... In many cases, the choice of these wizards was a little blind, and a group of wizards immediately agreed to participate in the plan. ,

This situation undoubtedly stunned Devon Bucklaw... He never dreamed that President Tyran Banks had decided to support Penn Diesel's plan, which undoubtedly told him that his time of jumping up and down was in vain, and he turned his head to look for Shomarek, but the secretary was nowhere to be found, which of course annoyed him, but he could not vent his anger at all, and he was suffocated in his stomach.

After the meeting, Penny and Banks had a one-on-one conversation in the president's office.

"Banksy, I knew that the Association must have been infiltrated. The wizard's brow furrowed as he thought about what Devon Bucklaw had just done.

"It's impossible not to be infiltrated. Banksy shook his head; But I'm sure that simple-minded little guy was just being taken advantage of, Diesel, do you know what's going to happen next if you follow the traditional tricks of these schemists?"

"Of course I do. Penny nodded; I'm ready, and I'm sure you're too. ”

"Oh, this is a good opportunity to bring together the scattered hearts of the Wizarding Society, Pan, you're right. Banksy frowned; If Simon's situation is bound to reorganize, we should indeed take our fair share of the pie. ”

"Loose organization is out of fashion. Amazed at the rapid change in the mage leader's mindset, Penny nodded, in agreement.

Tyran Banks nodded approvingly, and a light flashed in the depths of his pupils.

Although Pan Diesel's arrival was a bit noisy, there was no doubt that the outsider's series of actions was no longer satisfying for him, just doing some research in the mage tower, or a little more oil and water in the process of distributing benefits to the members of the guild.

While the Mage Guild is in full swing to manage its influence, Penny is also actively liaising with the Church of Tyre in the Westgate City, and after a series of changes, he and the vampires have been in a position of incompatibility, unless he is unlucky to be bitten by a vampire, otherwise as long as Pan Dikir is alive, the vampires will never let go of this extremely dangerous figure for them.

Such... There was no need for him to hide his whereabouts, and on a sunny afternoon, he went to the Cathedral of the Blind Truth and tasted the afternoon black tea concocted by Bishop Qajar himself.

The chanting sound in the quiet corridor sounds like a special charm, so that those who walk through it naturally restrain the contempt in their hearts. The archbishop's civilian robes made people unconsciously relax.

Of course, the most basic respect is still there, but the relaxed emotions are balanced to the point where they are just right.

I have to say that Bishop Khazar is a very good person at dealing with people, otherwise it would not be possible to run the Tyre Church in a good way in Simon, a place where merchants are in power, and he is sharply opposed to vampires, but he has not been killed until now, which shows the power of this archbishop.

And Penny was even more surprised when he learned from certain sources that the archbishop was an extremely belligerent war priest in his youth... At the same time, I was impressed by the power of this priest.

The bishop waved his hand and invited the wizard to sit down, and praised the wizard first;

"Mr. Diesel, your actions in the Wizards of the Coast Guild have been wonderful, and if we can convince all the wizards in this guild to stand against the vampires, then we will have a much better chance of eradicating the vampires. ”

"This ..............." the wizard raised his eyebrows... He shook his head slightly, and seemed to disagree with the bishop's statement; To tell the truth, Lord Shizar, the number of our official wizards is only fifty-four, and less than one-third of them have a certain combat ability, and it is hard to imagine that such a force can play a decisive role in this struggle. ”

"No, no, no, Mr. Diesel... You're looking too highly at those vampires... In fact, their true power is not huge, otherwise they can't have been able to control the city openly for hundreds of years?" What they should fear is their secrecy... We know that these guys control a considerable part of the resources of the Dragon Coast, but we can't find their leader, and the biggest headache is that as long as the Night Lord is not dead, no matter how many dukes and counts we kill, or hundreds or thousands of vampire minions, as long as he exists, the city will always be shrouded in the shadow of vampires. ”,

"So serious?"

"According to some clues, the Night King of this generation is a very rare legendary spellcaster. "Khazar exhaled and told really valuable information, and the wizard was unconscious;" Therefore, his power is beyond imagination, and it is likely that the product of the previous generation of Night Kings who first embraced a legendary mage, and then was counterattacked. ”

"Legendary mage first embraced?" Penny twitched, he couldn't imagine a legendary mage being embraced by a vampire for the first time.

Even if you want to live forever, no wizard will use this method - becoming a vampire will take a long life, but it will also be subject to certain limitations, and if you need freedom, you will have to fight against the first champion in an extremely dangerous way, although the legendary caster has many ways to counter the first champion's dominance over the vampire descendants, but the stakes are still huge, and there are many ways for the legendary caster to prolong their life, and it is impossible to choose this dangerous and restrictive way.

Obviously, even if this happens, the legendary mage is not voluntary nine times out of ten, which makes it even more unimaginable for Penny The reason is very simple, in the face of a powerful wizard with legendary spell-casting ability, it is unlikely that a vampire king of average level will bite the other party's neck before being bombarded to slag.

And it's impossible for a vampire to make such a dangerous move, and even if that bite is taken, there's a huge chance that they'll be countered later - and the legendary caster won't be willingly controlled.

"Probably an accident, anyway.................. It no longer makes sense to pursue the avoidance, and the important thing is that we need to solve the problem of avoidance. Bishop Qajar's expression was a little helpless.

It seems that this legendary vampire king with a somewhat unpredictable background has caused him countless troubles.

"Lord Bishop, you want to kill such a vampire king.................." Penny frowned.

It's a very difficult thing to do.

"Actually, it's not difficult, as long as we can get all the nobles and organizations in Ximen City out of his control, and mobilize as many forces as possible to encircle him, he can't deal with this level of blow alone. ”

With that, Penny nodded.

It's not hard to understand that the average legendary wizard would never dare to go head-to-head in the face of a team of dozens of well-equipped and well-trained adventurers... Being able to cast legendary spells does not mean that the world is invincible.

"We have to start with two of his right-hand men. Bishop Qajar recounted his plan step by step.

"You mean the two dukes?" Penny raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, these two evil fellows are the stewards of all the Night King's forces in Simon, and as far as I know, one of them lurks among the nobles, reporting to the Night King... And one is in possession of the 'Mask of the Night', "Bishop Khazar drank a glass of water;" On top of that, these two guys know the whereabouts of the Night King. ”

Penny thought for a moment, but still shook his head; But we don't know who they are. ”

"So we're going to find a way for them to get out of the way. "Bian Zar seems to have a whole plan; The first thing to deal with is the duke lurking among the nobles, as long as this one is eliminated and the leadership circle of the Simon layer is cleaned up, the Night King will not be able to get accurate information, which can make it easier for us to act further. ”

"Sounds like a good idea, but how do we do it?" Penny tried to get more real information.

"We need allies, and I happen to have one here. Bishop Qajar smiled triumphantly;" Let's talk about it here today... We'll talk about the rest another day. ”

Seeing such a smile, on the way out of the meeting hall, the wizard secretly began to frown, although the bishop did not make his plan clear... However, the corner of Jielù already has some all-encompassing flavor, and of course such a character cannot just exorcise the vampires and do nothing, according to the usual practice of the Tyre Church, after eradicating the old forces and breaking the old interest system, a new order will inevitably be established according to the creed of the God of Justice, and at that time..................

What's the use of keeping Penny still?

Although it is known that this bishop will inevitably leave a place for him, Ed Méng, and the Wizards of the Coast in the style of the Church of Tyre... There will also be certain benefits to this position... Wouldn't have left these guys penniless in the fight against evil, but Penny was able to deduce... That position was definitely far from what he expected. ,

You can cooperate with the Church of Tyre to deal with vampires, but you must seize the opportunity, you can't let them gain absolute dominance, and in the process of cooperation, you must also be false and real, have reservations, and you can't continue to be led by the nose.

It was very clear that the wizard had such an awareness in his heart, and a trace of vigilance that quickly lurked at the bottom of his pupils flashed in his eyes.

As he passed through the temple vestibule, he was caught by two people in front of him, the neatly armored Serra Rofia and a young man in the same shiny armor walking side by side along the road, and when he saw Penny, Serra's quiet eyes moved slightly, and his steps slowed down unconsciously.

The wizard glanced at the lady, who had been silent and almost stone in the last battle to recapture the body of the elder Edmént, and in the days that followed, the wizard often went in and out of the Temple of Tyre, and occasionally saw it, and then walked silently after a slight movement of his gaze, which undoubtedly made Penny feel very uncomfortable.

Although a clear line has been drawn between the two through various forms, it can be regarded as a friendship that was once born and died together, and it still makes him feel uncomfortable at this point.

Penny felt more vaguely that the way in which he handled the relationship with the squeeze was very inappropriate, but he could not say what was wrong.

Of course, it was the same this time, I had the heart to say hello and alleviate this embarrassment, but I was suppressed by the inexplicable gloom on Serra's face, but in the end, he found a breakthrough.

The young man was dressed as a holy warrior, but the emblem hanging from his mouth was not a warhammer, a scale, or a blue shield belonging to Tyr, but a sunrise over a brilliant field with jewel textures.

This emblem made Penny's heart move, and every red-robed mage apprentice who was about to complete his studies knew that he would see a priest wearing such a holy emblem outside of Serre in the future... Be sure to stay away, try not to approach - Lansendel's followers are all in the vanguard of hostility to evil gods and dark organizations of all kinds, and when it comes to fighting evil, Lansendel, the god of dawn, has far more extreme teachings and creeds than Tyr.

This made Penny feel a little uncomfortable, and the young warrior who was watching Penny with a scrutinizing gaze ended his silence;

"Sir, do you need any help?"

His voice was low and soft, pleasant to sound, and unconsciously felt safe, like a normal paladin, but Penny felt a little awkward, especially when the tall, handsome young man stood side by side with Serra.

"This is Lord Tirantus. "It seems that there is also a desire to end such an interview as soon as possible, and Serra opened her mouth to respond to the wizard's questioning gaze;" The Church, representing the Lord of the Morning Light, has come to make an alliance with us, and His Excellency Bishop is waiting to receive him, Mr. Diesel. ”

Sensing an uncomfortable feeling in these words, which were both impeachable in terms of words and tone, and a clear sense of repulsion from them, Penny's mood suddenly became very bad, and he hurriedly said hello, and walked out of the church at once.

Watching the wizard leave, Serra exhaled a long breath, and the sound from his nose fell into the ears of Tirantus, who was close at hand, and he frowned as he looked at Serra's not-so-good face; Mistress Grofia, may I ask you, that gentleman just now, Mr. Pan Diesel, who is now making a lot of noise in the city?"

Serra glanced at him and nodded slightly.

"Oh, why is he in this sacred place?" Tirantus' brow furrowed even tighter, his face full of sleepiness; In many places, it is rumored that he manipulated the head of the Ed Méng family by witchcraft and took power from it, and this sacred place should not accept his footprints until the facts are ascertained. ”

The words of the fellow paladin caused a palpable anger to rise in Serra's pupils, and her two blue eyes stared at Tirantus motionlessly, until the latter's expression gradually became solemn, and began to examine her possible mistakes according to the self-discipline of a paladin, and Serra turned her head and walked towards the depths of the temple; The rumors stop at the wise man, Mr. Tirantus. ”

The Apostle Lansendel, who had remained in place, frowned again. (To be continued!)
