From Wild Mage to Wizard King

Although the losses were heavy, except for Odin's loss in fighting the green-skinned high priest, other casualties were basically expected by the Locke resistance.

After all, when they fought against the green-skinned warlords, they suffered almost the same number of losses. They were already used to it, or were numb.

Although Roland had some guesses, after getting the approximate number of casualties, he still couldn't hold back.

How many people are there in Locke's resistance army? If you fight a green-skinned warlord, so many soldiers and extraordinary people will die. What will happen next?

Even excluding the existence of Kan'aozu, assuming that the vitality of every green-skin warlord is sealed by Roland, every green-skin warlord will not unite and fight one by one. It may not be enough to fill up the entire Locke Resistance Army.

Roland rubbed his head and felt that he had to speed up.

If the Locke resistance is allowed to continue fighting like this, the military power that Roland can win over will probably be lost.

However, although his condition has improved a little, there are only no problems with his daily actions now, and he still needs to cultivate for a while.

"Bang bang."

Just as Roland was thinking, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Open the door."

Roland said.

Hela, who was sitting next to Roland, nodded and opened the door from a distance.

Then, a first-order knight walked in. He walked in front of Roland and Hela, and after saluting respectfully, he said.

"Your Excellency Roland, General Locke invites you."

Roland looked up at him slightly and spoke calmly.

"Now?"

"Yes."

The first-order knight nodded and added.

"However, the general also said that if you don't have time, you can talk about it later."

"No need, I have time, let's go now."

Roland stood up and continued.

"Please lead the way."

Hearing Roland's words, the first-order knight nodded. According to Roland's words, he walked at the front and led the way.

Hela who was on the side also stood up with Roland, and the two of them followed him out.

After walking out of the door, the noise from the outside world quickly entered their ears.

After the annihilation battle, the large forces of Locke's resistance naturally withdrew back into the controlled area. After all, the greenskin warlord's territory had just been conquered, but there were no cities to garrison the army.

Therefore, all the large forces of Locke's resistance have now withdrawn here, which is Black Rock City.

As one of the important cities connecting the rear and the front line, Black Rock City is not only the headquarters of the resistance, but also a key node for the flow of personnel and materials.

Therefore, Black Rock City is one of the few cities that can still maintain order and maintain prosperity.

However, from Roland's perspective, Black Rock City is not as good as Roland's renovated and expanded Old Qi.

While the flow of people and materials has brought prosperity to Black Rock City, the comings and goings of people have also made the situation in Black Rock City complicated and difficult to understand.

Although Roland had just arrived in Black Rock City not long ago, he had already noticed some of the dark sides hidden in Black Rock City.

Moreover, in addition to the dark side, the surface of Black Rock City is also restless.

Although the Locke Resistance has an absolute advantage, Black Rock City still has the power to oppose them.

Most of these opposition forces come from the separatist forces in the rear.

The forces establishing a separatist regime in the rear are not willing to continuously pour personnel and material resources into the bottomless black hole of the Locke Resistance Army.

After all, there are only a few people like Roland who are willing to go to the front line to fight against the green tide. Most of the forces working for separatism in the rear are more willing to put their resources in their own pockets than to waste resources on the Locke resistance.

If the swords of the Locke rebels were not strong enough, they would have rebelled long ago. However, although they have not rebelled now, they are constantly looking for various reasons and excuses to reduce the number of soldiers and supplies they turn over.

Especially after this annihilation battle, they discovered that the Locke Resistance had suffered heavy losses, and they even tried to unite to resist the endless demands of the Locke Resistance.

As for why Roland knew this, of course someone came to persuade Roland to join them.

Regarding the two options of agreeing and rejecting given by them, Roland chose peace, neither agreeing nor rejecting, and was fooled.

In the next few days, Roland stayed in his camp, silently watching the quarrel between the local faction and the border faction.

The local faction cried that the Locke resistance was constantly squeezing them, while the border faction angrily scolded them for not understanding the importance of the front line, and denounced them as green-skinned spies and traitors to Donnar.

In addition to scolding, the two factions also broke out some physical conflicts from time to time, and they beat each other until they were bruised and bruised. Fortunately, they kept it to an end and no bloody conflicts occurred.

However, only the middle and lower-level members of the two factions were making the fuss, and the top leaders of the two factions were not obviously involved.

However, for the quarrel to reach this level, the top leaders of the two factions must have been secretly pushing it.

In addition to these two factions, there is also a neutral third faction in Black Rock City that can influence the situation, namely Locke and the extraordinary knights who trust and follow him.

Therefore, although the local faction and the border faction were quarreling fiercely, everyone in the two factions knew that the leader of the Locke resistance, Locke, was responsible for the final decision.

As long as he leans towards any faction, that faction will win.

Therefore, including Roland, almost everyone in the entire Black Rock City was waiting for Locke's choice.

However, no matter how fierce the turmoil in Black Rock City was, even if even the civilians knew about the conflict between the local faction and the border faction, Locke remained unmoved and remained neutral as before.

Roland followed the first-level knight to Locke's residence, silently thinking about what Locke wanted to do when he suddenly saw him.

If Locke did not invite others, then Roland would be the first person he met after returning to Black Rock City.

Is it because Roland has not yet made a complete statement and has not openly joined the border faction or the local faction, and is one of the few people in Black Rock City who has been wooed by the two factions and remains neutral?

Is it because he is worried that whether he meets the local faction or the border faction first, it will lead to intensified factional conflicts and break the factional balance, so he chose to meet me, a neutral person, first?

While thinking, Roland also organized what he would say after meeting Locke next.

As Roland got closer and closer to Locke's residence, the local and border factions sent out to follow him also discovered Roland's situation and quickly spread the news.

When Roland followed the first-level knight into the simple residence in front of him, the local and border factions' senior officials in Black Rock City also received the news.
