Celestial Mage

Chapter 389 Master Lavin, Turn Back (24)

In a blink of an eye, more than three months have passed.

While Beluga Island was rapidly accumulating strength, the situation on the eastern continent was also undergoing drastic changes.

The glorious alliance formed by the major lords gradually gained the upper hand and attacked Raging Waves City from all directions.

The Storm Alliance Army in Raging Waves City is like a caged beast. Although their minions are sharp and they can often achieve good results, they can't stop the general trend of defeat.

After all, one city is fighting against four cities, and there is no difference in weapons, so it is naturally difficult to resist.

In difficult times, the Duke of Storm, who has been silent when the transparent man jumped out again, announced that the Storm Allies were traitors.

This time, the bottom line was drawn again, causing hesitation in the hearts of ordinary civilians who had firmly supported the Allied Army.

As a result of the hesitation, the resources obtained by the Storm Alliance dropped by more than [-]%.

As a result, the power of one city was weakened to half the power of the city, and the decline of the Allied Army became more and more obvious.

As the leader of the Alliance of Storms, Archmage Lavin clearly felt that the Mage Alliance, which he spent a lot of effort and devoted all his efforts to establish, was rapidly sliding into the abyss of failure.

Under the tremendous pressure, he felt abnormally anxious and became suspicious, fearing that a terrible assassin would jump out of the corner and take his life.

After suffering for several days in a row, the peak master was a little bit overwhelmed.

Gritting his teeth, he took three trusted archmages and landed on Beluga Island again.

When a group of mages approached the island about 30 Lami away, there was a sound of wind and thunder in the air.

After a while, two wide and fat planes appeared in the distance.

After getting close, the two planes were suspended, the cabin opened, and a young middle-level mage stood at the door and waved a striking white whale flag to everyone.

Lavin led his men to lean over, and when they got near the plane, the middle-level mage said: "White Whale Island is under martial law, please indicate your identity and purpose."

This is not the first time for LaVine to come to the island. In fact, he has come twice in the past month.

When encountering such interrogation, he immediately cooperated and replied: "I am Lavin, the president of the Raging Wave City Mage Alliance, and I request to go to the island to see the earl and discuss important matters."

He has to cooperate.

If you don't cooperate, the next time you come, it will be a fighter plane, and it will open fire directly at a distance of several kilometers.

Some people didn't believe in evil before and wanted to rush to the island by force. After losing several archmages, everyone was honest.

The young mage said: "So it's the president, wait a minute, I have to report to the superior."

The young mage returned to the cabin, and after about 5 minutes, he came out again.

"The superior replied that it is okay to go to the island, but you are the only one, and everyone else will wait at Midway Reef."

The so-called Midway Reef is an additional reinforced island reef about 30 la meters away from Beluga Island. There are a total of three reefs, which receive guests from the west, north and south respectively.

Raging Waves City is located directly west of Beluga Island, and is generally arranged on the No. 2 midway reef in the middle.

Lavin nodded: "Okay."

So, he boarded the cabin of one of the planes, and the other three entered the cabin of the other.

The two planes started again, one took Lavin back to the island, and the other went to Midway No. 2 reef.

The cabin of this fat aircraft is divided into front and rear sections.

The front section and the back section are not connected. The young mage and Lavin sat in the back section of the cabin before, and the plane was driven by a dedicated flying mage in the front section.

Lavin sat quietly on the thick leather chair in the back cabin, with one hand resting on the small table beside him, knocking every now and then.

In less than 3 minutes, the plane began to land slowly. The young mage said, "Master Lavin, the Lord's Mansion is below. The Lord said that you are a distinguished guest, so I will give you 10 minutes to explain your intention."

"understood."

If it was in the past, how could this be regarded as VIP treatment?

But things are different now.

Beluga Island made a fortune by selling weapons, and used this wealth to manufacture a large number of powerful magic weapons, enclosing the entire island into an iron barrel.

In the entire Eastern Territory, the best and most stable bullets are all from Beluga Island.

Although they tried their best to imitate it, but in terms of production capacity and performance, they were far behind the products of Beluga City.

It can be said that the group of people who are currently fighting in the eastern border must rely on the breath of Beluga Island.

The Earl is also very busy, and most people can't even see each other. Giving him 30 minutes now is indeed a rare VIP treatment.

When the plane landed, there were attendants waiting outside the cabin door. After seeing Lavin, they respectfully said: "Master Lavin, please follow me."

The attendant turned and led the way, leading Lavin all the way to the VIP reception room.

After the maid brought tea and snacks, the attendant said softly: "Master, the lord is conducting experiments in the laboratory, and it will take about 10 minutes to arrive. Please wait a moment."

"Well~~ good."

He just took advantage of this time to organize his thoughts.

Ten minutes was not long, and about ten or nine minutes later, familiar footsteps came from outside the door.

After a while, the door opened and a tall young man walked in.

He has neat short hair and a very clean beard. He wears a snow-white cotton vest inside, dark blue leather jacket and leather pants outside, and a pair of high-top leather boots. He looks very energetic.

Master Lavin immediately got up to greet him: "Count, um~ your mana?"

As a pinnacle archmage, he could tell at a glance that Rosen's mana had exploded compared to the last time.

Rosen smiled slightly: "With some understanding, I broke through the cliff of the master."

As he spoke, he sat down on the bench opposite, folded his legs casually, and rested one hand on the back of the chair.

"Master Lavin, don't waste your precious time on me, just speak straight."

Master Lavin was hard to calm down.

As a pinnacle archmage who was born in a small nobleman, he prided himself on being a genius, but because of his rough experience as a teenager, he didn't become a master until he was 36 years old.

And the other party became a master at the age of 17, and immediately felt a huge gap.

Originally, the peak master had a psychological advantage over a high-level mage, but now, the advantage is gone.

It is also completely conceivable that as long as the opponent is given a few years, he will definitely be able to catch up with himself in the realm of mana, and it is even very possible to break through the limit of the extraordinary.

Thinking that the other party might be promoted to Transcendence, even with his state of mind at the peak of a master, he couldn't control the turmoil, and it was difficult to maintain a deep look on his face, showing a trace of emotion.

"Master Rosen, your progress has really exceeded my imagination."

But time is indeed precious. After sighing uncontrollably, LaVine got straight to the point.

"I want to buy some planes, what will it cost?"

In the current situation, only a stronger and more powerful magic weapon can help the Allied Forces turn the situation around, and the most powerful magic weapon in the Golden Land today is the extraordinary plane of Moby Dick Island.

As soon as he finished speaking, Rosen shook his head without hesitation.

"I only sell this plane to the duke, or to be more precise, God and I agreed that the extraordinary plane can only be used to deal with aliens, and must not be used in civil wars among mortals."

Lavin immediately found a logical loophole: "But you used the plane to deal with the archmage who invaded the island."

Rosen nodded and admitted: "That's right, I did, but this is the privilege God gave me."

"God said that I can use the extraordinary aircraft to defend myself, but I cannot take the initiative to attack unless authorized by the Duke."

Very reasonable reasons, people can not refute.

Lavin's heart suddenly became cold, and after a pause, he asked: "I heard that Beluga Island also produces a large rune gun, which can hit more than ten kilometers away, can you?"

Before he could finish speaking, Rosen interrupted.

"Master Lavin, I'm actually curious, what are you insisting on?"

"Now, the Duke declares that you are traitors, and the major lords also say that you are traitors, and the protracted war has also caused great harm to the civilians of Raging Waves City."

"The civilians of Rage City who originally supported you, and even ordinary mages are gradually leaving you."

"You and I both know that if we persist in this way, it will have no meaning other than causing greater damage to the Eastern Territory and costing more lives."

"You want to buy more weapons from me, and I'm telling you the truth, I don't plan to sell them, because this war has no more meaning than destroying the East."

Lavin was shocked: "Not for sale? Is it not for me, or for everyone?"

"Everyone is not selling, I think that's enough."

A hint of anger at being teased suddenly appeared in Lavin's heart.

"Master Rosen, let me tell you the truth, if you hadn't sold weapons at both ends, my Storm Alliance could have defeated those rebellious lords instead of being caught in a tug-of-war like it is now!"

"Now that you've made enough money from the Eastern Realm, just say you won't sell it. Isn't that a joke?"

Rosen spread his hands.

"Let me tell you the truth, if I hadn't sold you a powerful weapon, the Storm Alliance would never have been able to defeat the Ocean Legion from the very beginning."

"And I didn't stop you from imitating new weapons. There are so many samples and so much time has passed. How many guns can your gun workshop make in a day? How many rune bullets can you make?"

LaVine was furious.

He is not easy to fool!

"It's not that you sell weapons at both ends, so that the opponent has a lot of new weapons, so I have to spend a lot of resources and cash to buy more weapons from you."

"If this resource can be invested in the gun-making workshop, our production capacity will definitely increase by ten times compared to now!"

If they can breathe a sigh of relief, it won't take long, two months will be enough. With the resources of Raging Waves City, it will be no problem at all to make [-] guns a month.

But the damn Earl Moby Dick didn't give them a chance to breathe a sigh of relief.

Seeing that LaVine is not easy to fool, Rosen simply stopped pretending.

"Master Lavin, you have your plan, and I have mine."

"We each rely on our own abilities. Now that your plan has failed, is it all my fault?"

This is indeed true.

LaVine let out a long breath, calmed down the boiling anger in his heart, and said, "Are you really not selling?"

"Yes, not for sale."

"Then my allies will definitely fail, and I will definitely not end well, but before I die, I can bring a few people to accompany me to the kingdom of heaven."

Since the establishment of the Storm Alliance, they have fought more than a dozen battles, with some victories and some defeats. As a result, Rage City lost about 3 soldiers and killed about 6 soldiers.

There must be one person responsible for so many lives. As a loser, LaVine is naturally the best container to pretend to be infamous.

Therefore, no matter how brilliant he was in the past, if he fails, he will definitely be sent to the gallows, and his family will certainly not be spared.

What he is saying now is also a threat to Rosen, vaguely meaning that he will die with Rosen.

Rosen smiled faintly: "Master Lavin, your strength is indeed far greater than mine. In order to prevent you from suddenly attacking me, I have also made some preparations."

Following his words, the door was pushed open, and two middle-aged mages walked in, none other than Hamilton and Godel, both pinnacle archmages.

The two sat down on both sides of Rosen.

Hamilton sighed: "LaVine, you have gone astray."

Godel took a sip of the fragrant tea offered by the attendant.

"Master Lavin, there is no need to be so extreme. If you look back now, it will not be your turn to go to the guillotine."

As soon as he saw the two peak mages coming, Lavin's heart was so cold that he knew that he was not even qualified to work hard.

He looked at Rosen: "The earl is really good, I am far inferior to you."

Rosen said with a smile: "I didn't use any means. I just took advantage of the island."

"The reason why these two masters are willing to support me is not because of my means, but because we have a common pursuit."

This is a beautiful word, if the benefits are not enough, who will mess with him.

But these words cannot be said nakedly, they have to be packaged in a gorgeous gift box to make people listen comfortably.

Hamilton and Godel felt at ease.

Hamilton said: "LaVine, turn around, it's not too late."

Lavin's heart moved, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "It's all come to this point, how can I turn back?"

Rosen smiled slightly: "As long as the Duke believes that the allied forces are not traitors and that the major lords are traitors, then the major lords should be liquidated, and all the crimes will be borne by them."

Whose sin is unimportant, as long as you can win, you can pour all the dirty water on the loser.

Lavin was shocked: "The Duke's verbal declaration alone cannot liquidate the major lords."

After all, the Lightning Spear in the Eastern Region can only be used to defend Fort Thunder, and the major lords carefully maintain a line, never really invading the Duke of Storms.

Therefore, if you want to liquidate, you must have enough powerful mortal power.

Rosen smiled: "As a god-given earl, I have always supported the duke, and I will naturally help the duke liquidate the traitors."

LaVine understood as soon as he heard it: "Are you planning to join the war?!"

"Why not?"

Lavin's mind was shocked, and his mind flashed like lightning, and he understood Rosen's strategy.

"You are really ambitious!"

Beluga Island participated in the war, and the aircraft's giant cannons and exhausted bullets could easily create an impenetrable flow of destructive iron.

The Glorious Allied Forces could not be opponents at all, and they would be defeated in an instant.

In other words, this guy sits on the mountain and watches the tigers fight, seeing that the two tigers are almost fighting, let's reap the results!

Facing LaVine's questioning, Rosen sighed lightly.

"Maybe I am very ambitious, but my ambition is not to be a duke, but to build a large floating city."

"But relying on the manpower and material resources of Beluga Island is far from enough. It must be possible to gather the strength of the entire Eastern Territory."

Hearing this, both Hamilton and Godel showed reverence in their eyes.

Because Rosen not only said so, but also did so, his words and deeds were in harmony, without any water.

Hamilton looked at Lavin: "Turn back, come and build a big floating city with us."

Godel also said: "Master Lavin, with your outstanding intelligence, why bother with a group of greedy lords?"

Lavin was a little moved. He looked at Rosen: "If the big floating city is really built, who does it belong to? Does it belong to you alone?"

Rosen had already thought about it: "Of course it belongs to the entire East Territory, and the distribution of benefits should refer to the Beluga Island Development Bank."

"As for the management of the Great Floating Void City, I will also form a council of mages."

"All mages who participated in the construction of the floating city will get a seat to jointly decide everything about the floating city."

"There are nearly 600 million mages in the Eastern Realm, so that's 600 million seats. Will the efficiency of doing things be too low?"

"So I will also set up a multi-level council, one level at a time, and the highest storm council will have 7 or 9 seats to quickly decide on daily affairs."

"In the Storm Council, I naturally have a seat, Master Hamilton, and Master Godel will all have a seat. If you join, you will also have a seat."

Lavin understands that this is actually the way that the mage and the duke jointly govern the Eastern Territory.

It's the same route as him, but the means are much more powerful than him.

If he agrees, then his status will be downgraded from the expected president of the Mage Union to one of the seven seats in the Storm Council.

And after nearly half a year of fighting, the hammer of cold reality has also hammered away LaVine's ambition a lot.

He was already moved, but there was still a trace of hesitation.

"Can the Great Floating Void City really be built?"

He is not a three-year-old child, but a peak archmage, and he feels that with the current magical ability of the Golden Land, at most, he can lift thousands of Diwen's heavy objects into the sky at one time.

And the Floating Void City needs at least hundreds of thousands of Diwen, right?

Upon hearing this, Hamilton laughed: "LaVine, I've been busy fighting wars for the past few months, so I'm afraid I didn't care about magic?"

Lavin was taken aback: "How to say?"

Hamilton began to introduce in detail.

"The Earl discovered the basic rules of mana, and according to this rule, we jointly developed an amazing master level 7 logic gravity spell on a large scale."

"After casting the spell, you can lift a weight of [-] Diwen to the sky."

Lavin was startled: "But who has so much mana?"

Hamilton continued to introduce the results.

"At the same time, the elemental mage Fitbit has discovered a great source of power. With the core of endless mana, it can provide enough mana."

"Finally, Godel and I are developing the automatic casting of gravity spells, and we are getting close to success."

"Dawn, in fact, is already in front of us."

Lavin was stunned: "How could it be so fast?"

It's only been less than half a year.

Godel said with a smile: "Because the earl invested all the money he earned, at least 8000 million crowns. Every day, [-] talented mages are thinking about how to solve the problem."

Of course, the 8000 million is not cash, but a credit certificate issued by the Development Bank of the Islands, but it is also very amazing.

Hamilton said: "I assert that the first usable floating city will be in the near future, from Moby Dick to Risen."

LaVine was completely convinced and felt a sense of urgency.

I feel that if I move slowly, I may not be able to get on this big car that leaves a name in history.

He nodded immediately: "Okay, I'll join."

Commit right away.

"I will bring at least 8 logic wizards and [-] high-ranking wizards to Beluga Island, each of whom is an outstanding wizard with extraordinary talents."

Rosen laughed happily: "Master Lavin, I've been waiting for your words!"

In this way, the research on the floating city can be accelerated a lot.
