Many days have passed since the events in Idol City. Aside from what happened to Glori and his friends escorting Olaya, other news seemed to be blocked to the south of the Glaive Cliff. In order to learn something, Xavier never fell asleep. So, the night of November 17 was tormented by Xavier.

"Sir, haven't you rested?" said Krell Reed, holding a lit candlestick, as he approached Xavier, who was reading the letter. He placed the candlestick on his desk and poured Xavier another cup of coffee.

With a little spirit, Xavier put the letter into a wooden box, which was then sealed with magic. Xavier said in a hoarse voice, "Krel, you came at the right time, you are simply the moonlight that spilled into the windowsill and drove away my depression." Now, I feel much brighter. ”

"Sir, isn't it time for you to rest, I'll serve you to bed, and the water for washing your feet is ready. Krell took a step back, then saluted.

"Not for now, I'm going to rest later today, and I still have some things to deal with. Xavier said.

When Xavier stretched, Krell noticed that the drawer of the rectangular table in front of Xavier was open, and the rebirth stone inside had just been used. "It's not a good thing that you're using past stones. You need to take care of your body. Krell nagged.

"Oh, my friend. I'm sure you're not just concerned about my physical condition, you're probably interested in what I've seen in the Afterlife. I will satisfy your curiosity. Xavier said.

"Uh...... I can't hide anything from you. Not everyone can become an archmage, so we only have three mages, and you are the first. Krell flattered.

"I'll tell you what I saw," Xavier got up and paced back and forth, relieving his nervous heart by the way, "Susan helped a lot this time, she helped Glori get Oraya out. ”

"That's good news, but did you find that magic that Mr. Mayne used?" He was indeed afraid, because that magic could actually bewitch an archmage.

"The magic Mayne left behind in that letter is a very old curse. But that's not the point, the point is that he deceived me by using it," Xavier paused, staring at Krell with his hands behind his back, "I'm just as worried about this as you are. So we have to be careful not to trust anyone who intrudes into the Mochizuki Plains easily. I've also seen another thing, and that's that something bad has happened to our poor blue star, and the Revival has lost its right leader. ”

"The Lord is the Master, but what happened to the Revival Corps? We haven't been able to contact them for days, and even Kanther has lost the news. Krell said.

Just as Krell was confused, there was a knock on the door. "Mentor, it's me. Leo!" Leo shouted outside the door.

"What is he doing? Isn't he supposed to be patrolling the streets at this time?" Xavier wondered, "Let him in." ”

"Yes, sir. "Krell was a little uneasy, and he always felt like something big was going to happen.

As soon as Krell opened the door, Leo couldn't wait to break into the room. "Something happened to the Revival Legion, this is the news I just got," Leo breathed a little heavily, and looked panicked, "I just went to look for Evan, but I didn't find him, I don't know where he went." ”

"So, you're here," Xavier smiled, and after turning to sit down, he became serious, "I had a bad premonition before you came, and I couldn't sleep. So, with the help of the magic of the Death Stone, I saw some bad things in the candlelight. ”

"Silver with Duke Norton. They made a fuss at the camp of the Revival Corps. Leo said.

"Where did you get the news?" asked Krell.

"Of course I heard it from someone who had escaped from the Red Valley. Leo was in a hurry.

"What about others?" asked Krell.

"Unfortunately, he died like the man in black armor who sent us the letter that day. But he had a strip of cloth on him, and there were words written on it," said Leo, "and as for the signature, it was King Shennuo." Leo took out a strip of cloth from his bosom, there were still some blood stains on it, and in addition to the signature, there was a messy line written on it - Silver, Duke Norton rebelled.

Xavier feared that this was the same conspiracy as last time, but he did see something related to the Legion in the candlelight. He hesitated, "Is the messenger a Shinno?"

"Our guards are very strict," Krell sighed, "but it's a bit excessive, they have to learn to distinguish between friend and foe." ”

"He wasn't shot by us, he was killed by arrows when he came, but the old horse knew the way," Leo explained, "but the arrows did look ironic." ”

"How can an arrow be ironic?" Krell wondered.

"It's the arrow of the night touring church. Leo said.

"Night Church, Leo, watch your words, there is no such thing as a Night Church or a Dark Curtain Church, only the Night Church now. Xavier corrected, and was noticeably more serious than before.

"Heed your criticism, my esteemed Mentor. Now there is only the Night Church, and there is only one bishop, and these are all under the orders of Miss Eileen, the High Priest of the Starshow, not the Pope. Leo bowed, but as if teasing.

"Alright, let's get down to business," Xavier said, "Krell, you go and have a look." Evan should return to the Lord's Hall at this time. Let him gather his men to the council chamber, we need to have a late-night meeting. ”

Leo stood still, ignoring the wooden chair that Krell had placed behind him. "What about me?" asked Leo. 123 Literary Network

"Come with me to the council chamber," Xavier said directly, "the situation is terrible right now, and I wish the son of the Hunter family could use his brains more." He burned down the backyard of the Revival Corps at this momentous moment. The Order King is not a character who only cares about his eyelids, especially Yura next to him. ”

"So, they're going to take advantage of it?" asked Leo.

Xavier didn't answer, and grew silent. He and Leo walked through the Magic Book Room, picked up a biography of ancient magic, and then made their way down the hallway to the central hall. They saw that the guards were in a bit of a hurry and that they were overnumbered. At the same time, they met Evan here.

"Evan. Xavier shouted from the stairs.

"Mentor, I've gathered some of my men, and Thundering Zachary is here on standby. Evan said.

"Hey, Evan. Leo greeted Evan in a cold tone.

As Leo said, Evan had reconciled with him. Anyway, the past is gone, Leo is this temper, Evan thinks it's okay. "Hey, Leo," Evan smiled, "I think our chance to work together again is coming." ”

"Go to the council chamber and talk about it, it's too windy here. Those attendants, carrying swords all day long, forgot to get down to business. Xavier said.

Evan understood what Xavier meant, and turned his head to stare at the chief attendant. "It's too windy to-day, send the windows shut," he said to the chief attendant, "and send some more men to watch the night......

"Yes, my lord!" the chief attendant turned. He first summoned a few attendants to inspect the corridors and rooms in the main hall, and then went to the herald's room.

Leo looked at the chief attendant who was walking away and clapped his hands, using this as a substitute for the etiquette when meeting the lord of the city.

"Leo, you can keep it that way, that's you. Evan said. He walked over to Xavier, and the man behind followed. Leo shook his head and shrugged his shoulders, saying "of course" in his own way, and followed them.

"Did you get anything out of tonight?" asked Leo.

"Of course, the two Assassins of the Order King," Evan paused, "but they have been brought to justice. If you like, let you interrogate them the next time you are caught. ”

"I think it's better to forget it, I'm not good at this kind of thing, I prefer to patrol errands, especially at night," Leo said, "those noble ladies like to visit the night market, I like them." ”

"It's your hobby, I don't care. But you'd better not mention it at the meeting, because the Silver vs. Wolfer affair will make you lose your mood. Evan smiled.

"That's what we're going to talk about in our meeting - Silver and Wolfer did the wrong thing at the wrong time, and now the Revival is theirs. Xavier said.

"You're right, Master, the Revival Legion is already in their pockets, and we're now under threat and besieged," Evan explained, "To the north is the Emerald City, to the south, the Church Fortress under the control of Canther, but now in the hands of the Hunter and Norton families, to the west is the Miracle City controlled by the Law, and to the east is the Moonlight Sea controlled by the Waning Moon Clan. ”

Xavier knew that he couldn't use more mana on the Afterlifestone, because it wasn't just the mana needed to maintain the power of the moon god, but it also had to be in case of emergency. If the situation continues to deteriorate, then Mochizuki Castle is in danger. He asked, "Is there any news about King Shennuo?"

As he was about to arrive at the council chamber, Evan stopped pondering: "Unfortunately, there has been no news of King Shennuo. But ......"

"You must have a way to find them!" Leo said.

"Of course, we got some questions," Evan continued, "and that's that the mechanical guards have been staying in Giffany's dungeon. And King Shennuo was taken away by some kind of magic that day, and we don't know exactly what it was, because these news are all rumors. ”

"My brother Evan, you've come full circle, and that's what you're telling us?" Leo sat down first as he entered the chamber.

"Of course, it's more than that, and I can tell you one thing with absolute certainty. Shennuo is in a much better position than we are, at least the mechanical guards are still in their own hands. His Highness Lolaika will help us, and I think Lord Xavier must have received the same letter as me. Evan said.

"What letter?" asked Leo.

"Letters from Loleka, written by himself. I just watched it again. Xavier said.

"It was a surprise that they were able to send a letter. In the past few days, several returning travelers have gone missing. Leo recalled. He admired the courage of the Messenger.

"What about the returned traveler who helped us deliver the letter? I saw only the letter, not him. Evan asked.

"How could we possibly see him? Are you confused?Andrew is also in trouble at the camp in the Red Valley," Leo gradually lost his smile, "but how did this letter come about?"

"He sent this letter?" Xavier couldn't figure it out, and even wondered if he was suffering from Alzheimer's. He hadn't been spelled by any magic spells, but the sender of the letter hadn't been seen. In the end, he finally thought of the answer, he thought that it must have been sent by "him", and it was unknown what method was used.
