Templar Sun King

Chapter 42 Ambition (2)

If Martin was thinking of placing bets on the deputy city lord and Adam at the same time, now he knows it's time to make a choice.

This is a difficult decision.

Before the Association of Mage learned the news of the cooperation between the vice-castle lord and the Church of Dawn, there was still the possibility of cooperation between the president and the vice-castle lord.

Although the Mage Union is a relatively large force in Falcon City and has a lot of say in Falcon City, it is not close to the center of power.

And the identity of the deputy city lord mage can easily gain the favor of the mage association, and the mage association will definitely gain more benefits after she takes the position.

But the problem is that another partner of the deputy city lord is the Church of Dawn.

Both are spellcasters, but there is no harmony between priests and mages.

Wizards rely on excellent spellcasting talents, and their abilities in perception and spiritual power are far superior to ordinary people. This is also the basis for them to use magic elements or energy to cast spells.

Priests are different. Of course, there are people with extraordinary talents in casting spells among them, but there are more ordinary people with ordinary talents.

These priests rely on the power of the gods, offer their faith to the gods, and gain the ability to cast spells with the help of the power of the gods.

"A bunch of sad parasites who lost themselves in order to gain the ability to cast spells."

This is how some extreme mages describe priests, and they are quite rude.

The priests, however, disagreed.

It can be said that it is a perfect thing to believe in the gods and find the sustenance of the soul, and at the same time to obtain the gifts of the gods and the ability to cast spells.

The Mage Union will definitely not cooperate with the Church of Dawn, they are not the group of white mages who have a good relationship with the Church of Dawn in the Silver Tower.

What makes them even more unacceptable is that once the power of the Church of Dawn penetrates into Falcon City, their power will inevitably be weakened under the suppression of the church.

Therefore, no matter from the point of view of the mage or the mage association, the chairman has no possibility of cooperating with the deputy city lord.

Now that the president of the Mage Union no longer has any possibility of cooperating with the deputy city lord, the situation returns to the original point, the battle between the city lord and the deputy city lord.

Now there are two options before Martin: one is to persuade Adam to use his astonishingly effective white magic to heal the castellan's injuries, so that the castellan has enough power to quell the rebellion.

The second is to join the camp of the deputy city lord with Adam, completely kill the city lord, and become a great hero.

After confirming that the deputy city lord could not get the support of the Masters Association, Martin basically had no intention of continuing to cooperate with the deputy city lord.

He's a businessman, and he's all about rewards, not sensuality.

Martin suddenly finds that Adam seems to be inexplicably the key to the civil turmoil in Falcon City.

If someone had told Martin before that Adam would be the key to this battle, Martin must have thought that person was crazy.

Yes, he admitted that Adam's white magic is very magical, and the effect may even be better than the healing magic of the Church of Dawn.

But it must be a joke to say that it affects the outcome of the battle between the two silver rank powerhouses.

Now it seemed that as long as Adam was willing to make a move, the person who received his treatment would be able to seize the opportunity in this battle and be the first to gain an advantage.

And the small lordship that Adam seeks, no matter who it is, he will agree without hesitation.

Martin felt that the whole person was a bit bad. He had worked so hard to do so many things, but the result was not as easy as Adam's white magic.

Sure enough, the profession of mage is still so enviable.

In the end Martin decided to hand over the choice to Adam.

"Then the mayor."

"I thought you would be more willing to choose the deputy city lord who has a greater chance of winning."

"No, it's the city owner." Adam made this decision out of many considerations.

Firstly, Adam's plan for the position of lord fell through because of the deputy city lord's rebellion. As for the position of lord, which was proposed by the deputy city lord, he ignored it intentionally or unintentionally.

Secondly, because the deputy city lord had a cooperative relationship with the Church of Dawn, only two bronze priests of the Church of Dawn died a few days ago because of his relationship, not to mention those priests who died tragically under the rain of arrows.

In a word, he has offended the Church of Dawn, and he absolutely does not want to see the power of the other party extend to Falcon City.

In fact, there is another reason, but it is not convenient for Adam to say it now.

That is, after being reminded by Arras, Adam decided to wait until his professional level was raised to level 11 or above to challenge the current city lord. He wanted the Falcon City, one of the Seven Cities Federation.

He has already felt the feeling of power brought by the sanctuary space, and now he wants to try the taste of power.

"Okay, listen to you." Now that Adam has made his decision, Martin doesn't care.

"However, in this situation, it is not easy for you to enter the city lord's mansion to help the city lord heal."

"This is easy. Arras, you go out and inform Dubin and the others to let them do something in Falcon City at night. Given their identity and strength, it shouldn't be difficult. I will take advantage of that time to enter the City Lord government."

"Okay, sir. But there will definitely be people guarding the city lord's mansion next to the city lord's mansion."

"Don't worry about this, as long as you're not a silver professional, Andrew will clear the way for me."

Arras left Martin's manor with Janet, and carefully went out of the city to find Dubin and others.

"If you choose the deputy city lord, you don't have to worry about it now." Martin muttered.

***
Falcon City Mage Union, a meeting is being held.

"Now we can confirm that the deputy city lord has reached an ulterior agreement with the Church of Dawn. If she succeeds, the power of Church of Dawn will reach every corner of Falcon City. I can say that Falcon City is very responsible. It will be another Celtic parish of the Church of the Dawn."

The speaker was the old mage who opposed the absorption of Adam as a member of the mage union last time. His words were very fierce.

"The cumbersome canon, the control of beliefs, and the prejudice against mages. We, the Mage Union, no matter what the considerations are, will not help the deputy city lord participate in this rebellion."

"No, it's not enough to remain neutral in this civil strife," a mage continued.

"Our Mage Federation doesn't have much power in Falcon City. We need to make our voice heard and gain the power worthy of us. Gentlemen and ladies, this is an opportunity. Think about it, if we can help the city lord This time the rebellion subsides, what can we gain!"

"But we are not keen on power. I think it is enough to remain neutral. No matter who becomes the lord of the city, we will not be left out in the cold." Master Helen said.

"Ma'am, we are not keen on power, but we will not reject him. Sometimes I wonder why there can be a mage kingdom like Babelades in Yasha, why can't we create a city that belongs to our mages, Let’s start with Falcon City, for example.”

The kingdom of mages, Babel.These two nouns made the mages present eager.

Babelade is a kingdom of mages located in Yasha, which can be traced back to the era of the Egent Empire, which is older than the Sither Empire.

Under the leadership of a great mage named Morgan, the mages overthrew the brutal rule of the Aegint Empire, and established a kingdom belonging to the mages in a place called Babel in the Aegint Empire.

In the Mage Kingdom, mages are respected by people, and they can study various spells freely. It is a paradise for all spellcasters except priests.

This is also the story of the silent man in the three prophecies made by Archmage Colin. Morgan is the silent man in the prophecy, and he created the kingdom of the wizard.

It is a pity that after the death of the great mage Morgan, the mage kingdom he established had a long war because of differences in the concepts of elemental magic and black magic.

In the end, the black mage completely drove the elemental mages out of the mage kingdom, took charge of the power of the kingdom, and became the privileged class of Babel until today.

"You are right, we will not deny power, but we will not rule as brutally as the Black Mage."

The one who raised objections was Master Bai Helen. Her words woke up many power-hungry mages.

"Of course I don't mean that, but that's power, power! I insist on my opinion, and I must gain more power in this civil strife. President, what do you think?"

All the mages present cast their eyes on the president, but the president didn't directly express his point of view, but asked Morris a question.

"You said that the white mage named Adam wanted to gain the position of a lord?"
