Apocalypse Magician

At the same moment, thousands of miles away, Star Snow City.

The General's Mansion where Ding Linchuan is located is located near the city square and adjacent to the City Lord's Mansion.

However, in a small border town like Xingxue City, the so-called General's Mansion and City Lord's Mansion are just ordinary houses, only slightly better than ordinary houses, and not even as good as the ordinary alleys in the High City area.

"Then, I leave everything to Master Ling." Ding Linchuan bowed his hand to a young man in rich clothes in front of him. Overall, he was neither humble nor overbearing.

"Don't worry, General Ding. With the church here and me, Ling Tian, ​​Xingxue City will be unbreakable." Ling Tian gently arranged his luxurious clothes, showing full of confidence and not looking down upon the Alliance. "I will If you don’t stay here for a long time, General Ding, don’t forget what we just agreed upon.”

"Farewell, Lord Ling." Ding Linchuan walked to the door in person. He didn't turn around and walked into the courtyard until Ling Tian and his entourage were no longer visible.

"General, the meal Master Ling just had at the house can cover our expenses for several months." The housekeeper of the general house looked sad when he saw Ding Linchuan coming back.

"I come from the Supreme City and are used to fine clothes and fine food. Naturally, they are not as good as ours in the border areas." Ding Linchuan sighed, helpless, "We have been living a simple life these past few months. If we can really make Xingxue City survive the difficulties, everything will be better." worth it."

"Yes, General." The butler said nothing more and just went down silently to clean up the table full of leftover delicacies.

Ding Linchuan sat on the chair in the main hall, with a lingering doubt in his heart, but he couldn't explain it.

While he was thinking, he saw a deputy general approaching. Ding Linchuan stepped back and asked softly: "Did everything go smoothly this time to the Supreme City?"

"General, I am glad that I have fulfilled my mission. Ling Tian is a single descendant of the younger generation of the Ling family. His grandfather is Ling Henian, the second figure in the church. It can be said that the family has a great business." The deputy general had just returned to Xingxue. City, he immediately came to return his message, "Ling Tian's magic qualifications are extremely high. It is said that he is between the best and the first grade. He is only inferior to the amazingly talented Mo Xianwu, and he is already a middle-ranking magician at a young age. , although there is a factor in the Ling family's large investment in materials, it mainly depends on Ling Tian's personal efforts. Previously, Ling Tian served as a regional bishop near the Supreme City. He was proactive and had a high reputation. Under Mo Xianwu, the younger generation of the church It is undoubtedly Ling Tian."

"That's very good. However, did you reveal your whereabouts when you went to the Supreme City this time?" Ding Linchuan couldn't help but nodded, and then asked about the safety of the operation. After all, he was secretly investigating Ling Tian. If the person involved was aware of it, it would be very serious. wonderful.

"Don't worry, general. My subordinates have been very careful along the way, and there have been no mistakes." The deputy general was always cautious in doing things, and he was also confident in the process of this operation. "This information is not a secret in the Supreme City. You can find out with a little attention. arrive."

"Well, you can go down first." Ding Linchuan seemed to be relieved and a little relieved, "pass my order, what Ling Catholic Church said before about the integration of Xingxue City's defense forces, our city defense army will fully cooperate, regardless of materials or manpower, Ling Catholic Adults can call at any time.”

"Yes, I will take my leave first." The deputy general bowed his hands and was about to leave.

Ding Linchuan sat on his seat and continued to think about the current situation.

At the noble banquet more than two months ago, a united front was initially formed. Soon afterwards, Ling Tian was transferred to the Xingxue City area to serve as the regional bishop.

Even though Xingxue City is a small border town, it usually belongs to a "don't care" zone. However, it is located at the junction of three empires and is now an important strategic location. Especially when the news about the magic crystal veins spread, it gained the attention of the church. He directly sent Ling Tian to take charge and claimed that the church would ensure the safety of Xingxue City.

Before Ling Tian took office, Li Xingkong asked Mo Xianwu, and the feedback he received was basically positive, fully affirming Ling Tian's strength and ability. However, Feng Mo acted like Mo Xianwu, and he was not familiar with Ling Tian. It's hard to comment on anything, I can only say "the wife sings and the husband follows".

It is said that Ling Tian and Mo Xian Wu have some connection. When they were both students at the Emperor's Magic School, Ling Tian was one of Mo Xian Wu's countless suitors. There is still a gap in the standard of mate selection, but in the eyes of outsiders, Ling Tian is a well-deserved No. 1 seed player.

Unfortunately, Su Wanli appeared halfway and was very obsessed with Mo Xianwu. This Su Wanli was known as a formation genius and set numerous records in the school's formations. Although Mo Xianwu did not like him, Ling Tian did. See it as a thorn in the flesh.

Su Wanli had no status and background, and his magical aptitude was mediocre, and his strength was not in Ling Tian's eyes at all. His formation skills were outstanding but still fledgling, so Ling Tiantian used some means to force him out of the school. Later, Mo Xianwu learned about this. , thought that what Ling Tian had done was disgraceful, and gradually distanced themselves from him. However, Ling Tian still did not give up the idea of ​​pursuing Mo Xianwu. To this day, Feng Moxing regards him as his number one love rival.

However, Ling Tian's performance in the church has always been appreciated by everyone. Mo Xianwu distinguishes between public and private affairs, so naturally he will not deny Ling Tian because of some private matters. Besides, sending Ling Tian to ensure the safety of Xingxue City was also approved by Mo Nantian. Mo Xianwu Dance, of course, requires strong support and approval.

Because of this, Li Xingkong and Ye Xinhu returned to school with confidence, and went out to participate in the school trial when the predicted defensive battle of Xingxue City was coming, leaving only Ding Linchuan to cooperate with Ling Tian's actions.

After all, Ling Tian represents the position of the church. With the church as a behemoth, even if the leading alliance really comes to the city, I am afraid that the so-called defensive battle of Xingxue City will not be as tragic as predicted. Of course, Ding Linchuan will not take the predicted Ling Tian was fully informed of the matter, but it was revealed that there was likely to be a big war and everyone had to prepare for a rainy day.

After this period of time, Ding Linchuan had to admit that this Ling Tian was still very smart. Although he had just arrived, he had organized everything in an orderly manner.

Thinking of this, Ding Linchuan suddenly remembered that Li Xingkong once accidentally mentioned that the church had secretly helped the Sunset Empire before and sent a magic team to support, led by Mo Xianwu. However, they were ambushed by the Rising Sun Empire and almost annihilated. Unfortunately, at that time Ling Tian was not present, otherwise perhaps some casualties could be reduced.

"Wait a minute." Thinking of this, Ding Linchuan seemed to feel that something was wrong, and quickly stopped the deputy general who was about to leave the general's mansion, "Has Ling Tian ever been on the battlefield?"

"It seems not. Although this news is not easy to find out directly, it is said that Ling Tian has been working diligently near the Supreme City and never left for a long time." The deputy general thought for a while and got such an answer, but he didn't understand why Ding Linchuan He asked, "General, is there anything wrong with this?"

"Well, there's nothing wrong with it." It would be too far-fetched to doubt this, but Ding Linchuan had some grudges in his heart, "Remember those short-distance single-person space teleportation arrays left by the Lord of the City to hand over supplies with Bishop Ling?" When the time comes, remember to leave one secretly."

"Yes, general, I'm resigning." The deputy general was still confused, but he didn't need to ask clearly. He could just do what the general ordered.

The deputy general was ordered to leave the general's mansion, but Ding Linchuan was still restless. What was originally an inadvertent nitpick quickly spread in his heart like a weed.

The Lord of the City believes in Mo Xianwu's opinion, perhaps because the two of them are familiar with each other, but I, Ding Linchuan, have never met Mo Xianwu, so why should I believe it?

Astonishingly talented and stunningly beautiful, Mo Xianwu was in a miserable state on the battlefield for the first time. If Feng Moxing hadn't experienced hundreds of battles and led the team to break through, I'm afraid the entire army would have been annihilated. Could it be that the people of Xingxue City were really going to be wiped out? All defense matters were left to Ling Tian, ​​who had never been on the battlefield and was completely talking about it?

However, Mo Xianwu even went to the battlefield in person. If Ling Tian was so positive, why could he avoid it?

So, if we make a bold assumption, assuming that the Ling family is not as righteous as everyone thinks, if I were Ling Henian, I would never trust Ling Tian, ​​the only child in the family, to go to the battlefield.

Star Snow City borders the Empire of the Rising Sun and is considered an undisputed frontline. However, no real war has occurred. At most, both sides only focus on the magic crystal mine outside the city.

As for the dispute over the mineral veins, once it succeeds, no matter whether Ling Tian participates or not, since it is an area under his jurisdiction, it will naturally be recorded as a great achievement.

Now the main force of the Tai Dou Alliance has gathered in the capital of the Sunset Empire. Unable to break through the city defense formation, the two sides have been in a stalemate for several months. The Canglang Empire has mobilized its troops. Once the support troops arrive at the Qingtian Empire, they can send out troops at the same time. Uncover the capital city of the Sunset Empire and fight back against the Alliance of Leaders.

If I were Ling Henian, I would let Ling Tian gain some military exploits in Xingxue City, and then use these achievements to legitimately return to Gaocheng to serve as the regional bishop, that is, to fill the position vacated by Mo Xianwu's promotion to the bishop.

Thinking of this, Ding Linchuan paced the main hall repeatedly, faster and faster, until he was upset. These speculations were all groundless, but they were so logical.

While he was undecided, there was suddenly a loud noise, deafening, accompanied by the sound of the house collapsing, as if the earth was shaking. Ding Linchuan quickly ran out of the main hall and came to the courtyard.
