Chapter 571 560. News from the Black Magic Priory
The rebel army’s attack on Wall Village did not happen. The young magician seemed to have jumped out of a crack in the stone, flew to Wall Village, drew a circle, and was shot dead by Samira...
Lance and a group of magicians from the Law Enforcement Team of the Magic Union in Hailansa City came faster than Suldak expected.
As soon as the sun was shining, a group of magicians flew over Oak Ridge and rushed to the village of Wall, riding on magic horns.
Obviously, the messenger from Wall Village knocked on the gate of Hailansa City at night, and the Lance magician and a group of magicians who received the news rushed over non-stop, so they arrived in Wall Village so soon.
When Suldak rushed to the yard of the security station, Captain Gerald and a middle-aged magician were examining the dead young magician, and the two magic assistants on the side were recording the information carried by the young magician. thing.
Lance came over first and nodded to Surdak.
Suldak pulled Lance aside and asked, "Why did you come so fast?"
Lance's eyes were red and bloodshot, and he looked tired. He sat on the bench next to the shrub wall in the yard and said to Suldak:
"When we received the news from you, we happened to be having a meeting in the conference room on the top floor of the Magic Union. The messenger you sent said that Wall Village was attacked by the Dark Moon Gate organization again, so we rushed over directly. In the past few days, we have been overwhelmed by this matter. I don’t know how this matter reached the ears of the Grand Duke Newman. The Grand Duke heard that the manor, which symbolizes the highest glory of the Bradbury family, was attacked by rebels. The first thing he did was The head of the Bena Guard Battalion will be transferred to Handanar County on the Warsaw plane, and the military general will take over the daily work of the Bena Guard Battalion.”
"The lords and councilors in the city didn't want to be implicated in this matter, so they intensified their investigations on the Dark Moon Gate." Lance pinched the corners of his eyes helplessly, his voice a little hoarse.
Suldak added: "I heard that the Dark Moon Gate once participated in the coup d'état in the province of Sloit. This time, Grand Duke Newman is on the front line of the Warsaw plane. Is it because he is worried that there will be changes in the province of Bena? Sending the military to take over Bena Guard Camp?"
Lance shook his head slightly and said: "There must be considerations in this regard, but the matter is far more complicated than you think. According to the news from the Intelligence Agency, the Black Magic Priory is also involved, a Black Magic Priory An adventure group composed of members of the society has sneaked into Hailansa secretly."
"The Black Magic Priory? Hasn't it been completely eradicated from Bena Province?"
Hearing the news from the Black Magic Priory, Suldak frowned.
Lance glanced at Suldak, and said with some surprise: "I thought you didn't care about this... The Black Magic Priory is scattered all over the empire. It is a group of magicians who secretly study black magic. Their The foundation is much bigger than we imagined."
Suldak smiled wryly: "I have such a big enmity with them, how can I be indifferent?"
Mage Gerald and a middle-aged magician walked side by side, and Lance and Suldak rushed to meet them.
As the head of the Law Enforcement Team of the Hailansa Magic Union, Mage Gerald was extremely humble in front of the middle-aged magician, but he did not introduce the middle-aged magician's background to Suldak. He came over and said: "It is indeed a member of the Dark Moon Gate organization, Baron Suldak, can you tell us what happened?"
Suldak immediately replied: "Of course!"
He invited a group of magicians into the parlor of the security station. Samira had prepared some hot tea at this time, and everyone sat down around the table. Suldak was worried that he might have missed something, so he would The half-elf archer Samira and the native warrior Andrew called over, and then introduced to several magicians:
"We were having a Harvest Festival celebration...that's exactly what happened."
Suldak told all the details of the battle.
The magicians in front of the round table looked at each other, and their gazes inadvertently fell on Samira who covered his face with a cone hat. Facing such an archer who might shoot the magician at any time, no matter who it is Be wary.
Mage Gerald and the middle-aged magician whispered a few words, and the meeting table was quiet.
Then the magician Gerald said: "There are indications that the dead magician is indeed a member of the Dark Moon Gate organization. Recently, a group of secret infiltrators from the Black Magic Retreat organization appeared in Hailansa City. Determine if he has any connection to the Black Arts Priory."
After a pause, he said to Suldak again:
"We are going to bring the body of this magician back to the Magic Union. The corresponding achievements and rewards will be sent within a month. You are the sheriff of the barren land, so you need to pay close attention to this place. Once there is something Please inform us immediately about the news about the Dark Moon Gate and the Black Magic Priory."
"Yes, Lord Gerald!" Suldak was very calm, and did not mention the young magician's belongings and other related spoils at all.
Magician Gerald probably felt that if the young magician was taken away like this, Suldak’s interests would indeed be affected, so he thought for a while before saying:
"The last time I participated in the Hailansa City Council, the guard battalion proposed to promote your place to a security squadron to increase the police force of the guard battalion, but the matter was temporarily put on hold for various reasons, but this time you can rest assured that in the middle of this month In the House of Commons, all magician congressmen in Hailansa City will vote for it, as long as you can guarantee that those congressmen who supported you last time will continue to support you, the official appointment will definitely be conveyed within this month!"
Suldak didn't expect that because he gave up the right to belong to the young magician, he would actually get the full support of the magicians in Hailansa City. He didn't pay much attention to the squadron leader at first, mainly because There is currently no place in the barren land that can raise war horses, and the hard conditions for establishing a knight squadron are not yet mature, so I don't know how to answer for a while.
However, I still have to say thank you.
Suldak immediately said to Wizard Gerald: "Thank you Lord Gerald for your support!"
Mage Gerald admired Suldak's calmness, so he leaned forward and patted him on the shoulder and said, "You have always done a good job!"
…
Before the magic union law enforcement team left Wall Village, Suldak grabbed Lance to understand the situation.
"Lance, Grand Duke Newman seems to be particularly concerned about the Dark Moon Gate organization." Suldak said.
"That's natural." Lance whispered to Suldak: "The Dark Moon Gate organization has the most mature temporary magic circle construction blueprints and mana centers in their hands. Those magicians can build temporary portals anytime and anywhere. Transferring the effective forces far away from the headquarters of the Dark Moon Gate to any place is the biggest threat to the Grimm Empire from the Dark Moon Gate. Of course, the transmission also has a certain cost. Their outstanding combat effectiveness was taken advantage of. Being able to attack Bradbury Manor under the noses of the Knights of the Benar Guard Battalion is also taking advantage of this advantage."
"You think, there is such a group of magicians, they can let an elite team sneak into the hinterland anytime, anywhere, how can Grand Duke Newman not worry?" After speaking, Lance took out the magic handle from the magic pocket, and the other magicians He had already taken off one step ahead, and he didn't want to be left too far behind, so he had to catch up immediately.
"This time the magician from the Magic Union of Bena City also came to Hailansa City?" Looking at the flying magician Gerald, and the middle-aged magician who communicated with Gerald magician the whole time , Suldak continued to ask.
Lance didn't hide anything, nodded and said, "That's him, so you should know how much pressure our law enforcement team is under. Well, I should go. Remember to contact me if you need anything!"
He stepped on the handle of the magic horn and waved his hand at Suldak. The magic horn lit up the magic patterns one by one, and slowly lifted into the air, carrying the magician of Lance and flew out like an arrow from the string.
Looking at such a convenient flying tool, Suldak also looked envious.
…
The fragrance of tea on the square table overflowed, and Mrs. Marianna's maid brought out several plates of desserts and fruits from the kitchen.
It was the first time that Suldak came to Karl's apartment in High Lansa City. He and Mrs. Mariana Christie usually dated in this apartment. However, as Karl's status in High Lansa City gradually rose, he and Mrs. Mrs. Mariana's lover relationship is considered semi-public in the aristocratic circle, so there is no need to cover it up.
Through a crystal curtain, Suldak could just see Mrs. Mariana sitting in pajamas in front of the dressing table by the wall, and a maid was dressing her.
Karl sat across from him, and proudly said to Suldak: "That Cavendish knight performed well on the battlefield, but his bones were not so hard. During those days in the prison of the guard camp, he almost killed the traitor. The situation of the army is all told."
"According to him, in just a few years, several major changes have taken place within the rebel army."
"A group of generals who were best at fighting at the beginning have left the rebel army one after another. This group of northern rebels has long lost their original combat power. This is one of the reasons why Dark Moon Gate abandoned these rebels."
"Of course, after this group of rebels attacked Bradbury Manor, several traitors appeared and stole the incomplete map. At this time, the internal cause of the rupture has been buried."
"The reason why Dark Moon Gate finally gave up the rebel army in the north is probably the death of Magician Golden."
"It is said that the alliance with the northern rebels has always been promoted by the magician Geldon. Many magicians at the Dark Moon Gate do not agree with this, but it involves some interests in the organization. Geldon The Deng Mage faction took the initiative."
"We almost got this news. The day before yesterday, Cavendish left Hailansa in a magic airship. If you had come two days earlier, you might still be able to meet him."
"This time, the action of our High Lansa Guard Battalion was actually rewarded by Duke Newman."
"By the way, this time you came to me to understand this?" Karl asked Suldak, who was looking down at the dessert on the plate.
"Well, I have made a death feud with these northern rebels this time. Of course, I need to know more about them." Suldak said and stuffed a piece of cake into his mouth.
"You can rest assured about this. Without the support of the Dark Moon Gate, those northern rebels would not be able to reach Bena Province at all." Karl said to Suldak very confidently.
Then he said something to Suldak: "I thought you would care about your position as squadron leader..."
