Twenty Sided Dice

Chapter 534: jump out of a trap

"Although I achieved my goal, I still can't bear to provoke Evan like this." Siegel said to Mage Shelley while manipulating the invisible servant to pack up.

"What's the point of staying, the Mage Association is about to bully your nose." Mage Shelley also summoned a few skeletons to help and jointly carry the test bench under the Stargazing Tower. Many of these old test kits are pretty good, and Mage Shelley wants to move them - no one's trying to stop them anyway.

"When you return to Heimland and the Federation, there will be enough buffer space between you and the king, and everything will be negotiable. Otherwise, like now, if an order comes face-to-face, do you obey it, or do you have a hard top?"

Siegel nodded, and he fully agreed with Mage Shelley's words. Leaving is the best solution, but not necessarily the safest. Siegel had a concern, a concern from the Mages Society. The Mage Association didn't mention the matter of Myr's energy core, but only briefly mentioned the magic spaceship and the teleportation array. The meaning is self-evident - it is for Siegel to understand the hidden truth and decide on his own. How to tell His Majesty the King. This plan will definitely be sent to Siegel, and the Mage Association and Lier must also know this. They certainly don't expect Siegel to be blind to the odds, so it's very likely that they've also thought about his current response.

In other words, their actions to leave the royal city might be part of their plan. But what is the purpose of connecting the whole thing, using Sir Bill and the Orthodox thing to attract yourself, and then using this thing to force yourself away after a circle? If you don't understand this, Siegel will not be relieved.

"Sir, will you be a good lord when you go back this time?" Hunk leaned over and asked cautiously, "Can I ask you something. I want to take Vanessa on the road. Go back to Heimland. go."

"Vanessa, who?" Siegel's mind flashed like a thunderbolt, as if some inspiration appeared: "Hunk. There's nothing wrong with women, but what did you say before?"

"Please?" The orc was obviously stunned for a moment.

"Go ahead!"

"Be a good lord?" Hunk scratched the back of his head. Then he said, "This is what Vanessa said. She said that I should also be a lord and manage my own territory."

Siegel slammed his head against Hunk's forehead with a thud. It was his excitement with the manners of an orc. "It's my greatest luck to bring you here, and I want to understand what's going on. Just based on this, I'll give you a piece of advice. Any woman who lets you manage the territory instead of being free and happy will eventually let you Annoying. By the way. Keep packing, I'm going to the library."

The Royal Library was not far from where Siegel lived, and a few minutes later he was in front of the big iron-inlaid wooden door. The servant who was cleaning the door nails wept hesitantly, "Mr. Marquis, the laboratory is no longer in use, so just move it. But the Royal Library can't be moved! We will lose our heads!"

"I'm not here to move books, I'm looking for information." Siegel went straight to the Starry Kingdom's history book, then started with a specific chapter

There are many records here that cannot be seen from the outside, especially information related to the supreme ruler of the kingdom, as well as secrets about policies, nobles and rebel lords. The information Siegel is looking for is related to the previous mage lord, how he rose. And why did he embark on the road of raising the flag to rebel.

Whether it's folk sayings or the records of the Mage Federation, he is a madman, and he wants to make the kingdom act according to his ideas. Most of those crazy, unrealistic ideas come from the devil's bewitchment. Therefore, the world will become purgatory, and the kingdom will become ruins. The wise king rejected his proposal and only allowed him to experiment in his own domain. But this man is not greedy enough, paranoid wants to change the world, thinks that his territory is not enough to show the effect, so he starts to attack his neighbors.

That's how the war started. Later, with the help of the undead army, this mage lord has won many battles, and all his enemies are looking out for the wind. With the intervention and help of the Temple of Dawn, the king's army finally reversed the disadvantage of facing the ocean of undead on the battlefield and stood firm step by step. until you start to fight back.

The counterattack was ferocious and ruthless, and even the original territory of the mage lord was captured. His magic tower was also torn to rubble. Seeing that the fiasco had become a foregone conclusion, the mage lord abandoned his army. He came to the Temple of Magic and Knowledge to seek shelter, and resolutely became a member of the Mage Association.

The king wanted the lord's head to be brought to justice, but the Mage Association resisted the king's order in the name of protecting the Mage. At this point, the association was kicked out of Fanxing Wangcheng, the position of the Royal Mage advisor was also cancelled, and the Temple of Dawn took advantage of it to enter. After more than a hundred years, as the city gradually matured and grew, the Mages Association returned to the political circle in this new form.

Is the Master Association so kind? Ever since the Mages Association decided to delay the agreement with the Federation and block the knowledge of spells and magic, Siegel knew that the Association was still just a utilitarian political organization. Will it simply abandon its close relationship with the royal family for the simple promise of "protection and assistance to all mages"?

There must be an inside story. Siegel sees the other side of things by consulting the Starry Royal Family. Rebel Mage Lord Earl Hood is a self-taught noble mage who specializes in necromantic spells and spirit summoning. He learned these spells in secret, without even his parents knowing. When he was sixteen years old, because of a traffic accident, his parents' carriage fell off a cliff, so the title of earl became his.

He has always wanted to resurrect his parents, as evidenced by his correspondence with the king. But relying on necromancy cannot resurrect a person, only turn them into skeletons, zombies, or ghosts. And the temple was reluctant to cast difficult resurrection spells for the unbeliever.

So he tried every means and continued to experiment with spells in various ways. During this period, he also came to the capital to meet the king, hoping to get the support of the royal family. According to royal records, Earl Hood wanted to harvest life force from the living to achieve the effect of a divine resurrection spell. At this time, the Mages Association advised the royal family: "This kind of behavior is evil. It cannot be supported."

Even after returning to his own territory, Earl Hood was still under enormous pressure. The surrounding realm is constantly harassed by his magical troops, and the farmland and pastures that the undead pass through quickly fail. even become dead. He's going to conquer the world with the power of death, thereby bringing those dead souls into the world--there's a lot of news. In the end reality proved this.

No matter how Siegel reads it, it feels like Earl Hood is being turned against. In the end, he chose to join the Mage Association, an organization he had not been in for a day before, and then let the association shelter him. What conditions did he use? Why does his necromancy look like a potion of youth or a potion of life?

Although there is no record of this matter from the Mage Association, part of the truth can be restored with the information at hand. The last mage lord, Earl Hood, once had a good relationship with the king, and also had good attainment in his spells, but he also encountered the same slander as Siegel and was forced to leave the capital. after that. Things didn't go the way he thought, and the distance not only created a buffer, it also became a breeding ground for mistrust.

In the end, what started as a series of small border frictions eventually evolved into a "rebellion." In fact, Siegel now feels that this rebellion needs to be put in quotation marks, and things are not as simple as they used to be.

Is it enough to be a good lord? Hunk's simple wish is not so easy to achieve. Siegel hasn't gone back yet, and the surroundings of Heimland have become less peaceful. The giant Kerry of the Jackdaw Tribe has sent a message back. At present, they have no intention of attacking Waterdeep City, but Waterdeep City wants to expand its territory. It's just that north of the Walled Mountains, the Jackdaw tribe found a salt mine from the orcs and grabbed a large savannah. I've been full for the time being. Apart from those tall and beautiful buildings, Waterdeep City doesn't have anything very attractive to the prairie people.

But if Siegel goes back. Still don't know what will happen! The method used by the Mage Association on the last Mage Lord is very clear, that is, to make him become a loner again, lose his territory, lose his friends and family, and lose everything he originally had. When he only had spell knowledge and ability left, joining the Mages Guild was the only option.

Siegel is different from him. Earl Hood is not a magician, which means that he cannot use the gate of another world to leave. But Liel is not a fool. He will naturally use more careful and fierce means to keep Siegel in the Thunder Wall world until he admits defeat. Maybe there's nothing wrong with leaving briefly, but once Siegel does decide to leave. Lier's preparations will be exposed.

If it weren't for the lessons learned, Siegel might have already embarked on the road of entering the trap without knowing it. The only way to make the king absolutely believe that he will not defect. Just staying by the king's side all the time - it's even safer than sending a proton over. Come to think of it, Heim's Landing is on the other side of the sea. All the faster-than-shipping methods—whether magic ships or teleportation arrays—are actually the work of Heimland Siegel~www.readwn.com~ so once Siegel wants to isolate the starry royal family from the new world control is simply too easy. Now there are many very young knights and servants in the Star Fortress. In fact, they are protons sent by various lords and nobles to show their loyalty to the royal family. What can Heimland do as the most powerful military force?

Armed the army with a large number of muskets, built a magic spaceship, and opened the magic spaceship to the star city. Not long ago, he also drove the spaceship into the territory of the Countess of Nautilus. In order to find Sir Bill, the magic spaceship also opened fire and directly destroyed the magic protection array of the Swan Castle. Which of these was notified to His Majesty in advance?

Siegel felt that he was still too immature. If the above things happened to the lords under his command, it would be strange if he didn't ask questions or secretly mobilize the army to guard against them! As he himself said, some things are not impossible to do, but it depends on how to do it and whether it can be thoughtful. But when it was his turn, he still hadn't thought through.

At this moment, there were a lot of footsteps outside, and it seemed that more than a dozen heavily armed soldiers trotted to the vicinity. Then Siegel heard a familiar voice: "Where is the death? Come out, Siegel!" (To be continued.)
