Twenty Sided Dice

?Remember【】for a second, to provide you with wonderful novel reading. Master Kasper stood in the study, the surrounding windows were all drawn with thick curtains, there was no lighting in the room, and the thick darkness surrounded him, which made him feel comfortable and at ease.

Just like how he felt when facing the void.

The Knox Common Society is on the right track. After merging into the Mage Federation, it can quickly expand its influence with the help of the Mage organization in this new world. They successively built magic towers in Makabuda, Ximu Town, and Hub Fort, and the shadows of the dead in the north began to leave their original lair under the attraction of the magic circle. I believe that there will be a lot of flame soul crystals soon, which can be used as materials for magic circles, and can also be sacrificed to the Red God to get more help in magic.

But the plan was not without setbacks, and the recent events in the south made him a little confused. The failure of the southern coalition army was not unexpected to him. An army with spellcasters and an army without spellcasters are completely two concepts, and Myr City is not a good bone to chew on. He had used prophetic spells to predict the outcome of battles and found that the attack on Myr represented an unquestionable "bad omen".

However, he still gave the order to attack, because what he needed was the chaos in the south, and from the chaos he could find the forces that he could support and control. But the result was unexpected. The mage named Siegel quickly resolved the chaos in the south. The newly rising four noble forces ended their hostility to each other. Everyone carefully observed the others, forming a temporary check and balance.

There is not only one way to cause chaos. As long as the crimson magic tower can be established and the emotions between the territories can be stirred up, it is easy to rekindle the war. But recently it was discovered that all spellcasting activities in the South, especially the establishment of magic towers and magic laboratories, were all restricted, and the root of all this was Siegel. The lords of the South refused Knox's men to build without his authorization.

"Don't come to me about your mage." The lords shied away: "I don't want to cause any trouble."

They were all afraid to offend the mage lord.

Another thing that puzzled Kasper was the disappearance of his eldest apprentice. The contact that was supposed to be done every month has now been silent for four months. Casper didn't understand what caused the loss of contact. That kid would never dare to do that, something very important must have happened. There was a vague feeling in his heart. Still stubbornly reluctant to admit the possibility of his apprentice's death.

He was a smart kid, and ambitious, but more importantly, extremely gifted, a man to build.

But if you can't make the effort to complete the task. What's the use of him then?

Jinlong and Heifeng still haven't heard from each other, and the person who carried out the search is now missing again, and Master Casper has lost his patience. And the plan of the Knox Common Association has come to a critical time, and it has to be launched like an arrow on the string.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and it rang three times very politely.

Master Kasper waved his hand lightly. Turn on the lights in the room. The light dispelled the darkness, the fireplace burned, and the whole room seemed to come back to life, warm and comfortable. Only then did Casper let the door open.

Alexander the Lion stood at the door with a serious expression on his face. His fiancé was lounging lazily on his shoulders, but squinting at everything around him, always alert.

"Master Kasper, there is a message from Xuecheng that something important has happened, and a meeting of the Three Towers needs to be held."

"It turned out to be Your Excellency Alexander. It's fine for the apprentice to notify this kind of thing. Why do you have to run in person?" Master Kasper waved, and a long metal staff flew into his hand. The "Lion King" narrowed his eyes and recognized that it was a mighty staff, a powerful magic item. In addition to being used to cast spells including missiles, fireballs, force balls, spell nullification enchantments, etc., he can also be sabotaged.

The more energy left in the staff, the more powerful the destruction. Moreover, the action of destruction occurs in an instant, and the pure magic energy will form an effect similar to a surge of elements in a small area, and the damage to the mage is especially huge.

Users who make the sabotage choice are half likely to be teleported to safety. The other half will be hopelessly destroyed, a terrifying gamble. But as a mage, there are always ways to avoid this.

For example, pre-ambush triggering spells on the body, as long as the action of deliberately destroying the staff of power is made. It will be triggered immediately, and the body will be teleported away - for safety reasons, you cannot set the teleportation of personal items, otherwise the staff will be taken away together. So the Staff of Power has always been seen as a threat by mages, especially when it comes to gatherings.

Mage Kasper doesn't seem to have this awareness, holding a staff of power in his hand. Like an ordinary walking cane used by an old man. They came to the conference room together, where William the Traveler had been waiting for a long time.

His talent was much better than William's, but he couldn't find it. When entering the room, Master Kasper finally thought about his apprentice.

William's eyes swept over the staff in Casper's hand, but he remained silent, his expression was exactly the same as before. There are only three people in Nuoda's room, and the Mage Federation has the highest status and the strongest three.

"I have received reliable information that the Starry Kingdom is in a civil war." Alexander's tone was serious and calm, just like his usual expression. "The king fell off his horse when he was hunting, and only broke a few bones. It was not serious at first, but he died suddenly when the priest of the Temple of Stars was being treated, leaving a bunch of conspiracy speculations. Crown Prince Aaron took the throne immediately. Declared the two dukes of Cardo and Sylter as the conspirators who killed the king, and wanted the co-conspirator - his illegitimate brother Evan Jinkui."

Casper has his own sources of intelligence, and he expected such a thing to happen in the Starry Kingdom. He secretly observed William's expression, guessed how much he knew, and what attitude did he take in this incident?

William took a file and trimmed his nails boredly. Every time he felt that the shape was not good, he would grow another section and start all over again. He obviously doesn't care about things in the Starry Kingdom.

"Evan Jinkui came to the Xuecheng with an edict and asked the lawyer there to make an appraisal. The edict was written by the former king himself, and he gave Evan the surname of Fanxing and removed the title of his illegitimate son. Wen's actual age is older than Aron, so he becomes the first-in-line heir."

It was only at this time that William raised his head and asked with great interest, "Oh, hasn't Aaron always been the crown prince?"

The Lion King shook his head: "There has never been an official edict to confirm this, maybe I forgot."

The corners of Kasper's mouth twitched slightly, perhaps not because he forgot, he thought.

"So the Starry Kingdom was on the verge of division and civil war. There was constant friction between the lords who supported both sides, but because no one was sure whether the neighbors were friends or foes, and the territories were intertwined, there was no full-scale war yet. Aaron did that. A prince for many years. He has gathered the power of many nobles, but his health is too poor and he has no children. Evan is the oldest, but he has no other advantages except being an excellent swordsman. As for the king's youngest son, Makbo , who is only 4 years old now. Whoever supports him will be the biggest ambition, so it is safe now. Originally, the Temple of the Stars, as the support of the royal family, has always had a good right to speak, but it was also lost because the king died inexplicably. It is convincing. Neither Aaron nor Evan is willing to fully believe in the temple, and the temple does not dare to speak easily."

"Deserving it! These god-given guys look beautiful, but in fact they are not as good as before. This incident is another big lesson, and it is estimated that they will never turn over in the hearts of the royal family." William gloated at the misfortune and put down his file. Finally started getting interested in meetings. "What did Xuecheng say, this is a good opportunity to re-enter the political core!"

Master Kasper shook his head. His ability to understand people's hearts was far higher than the two in front of him: "According to my estimation, the Xuecheng will be swaying now. The situation is too complicated, and it is not safe to bet on either side."

Alexander nodded, "The teacher is right, the academy is currently divided into three factions: Evan, Aaron, and wait and see. They are arguing all day long, and no one can convince the others, and they are temporarily unable to act. "

"Humph! Where can there be profit without taking risks? Now is the time to test your courage!" William couldn't stand the procrastination of those old men, and waved his hand to express his dissatisfaction.

"You know they just lack guts. Where else would the federation come from?"

"So what do we do now?" Casper teacher asked. "The Lion King" Alexander has a good personal relationship with many mages in the academy, which is why the Union of mages can establish a continental teleportation formation across the ocean. The civil strife in the Starry Kingdom will definitely affect the Mages Association, and the "Lion King" will definitely fall into this trouble. When the lion's attention is locked on the other side of the ocean, then at the Three Peaks Pagoda. The only trouble left was William the Traveler.

But isn't he adventurous and likes to travel? With such an obvious preference, it is natural to make good use of it.

Sure enough, Alexander voiced his concerns. There was a message from Xuecheng that he was going to be recruited to discuss the next thing. Because both Aaron and Evan have extended a helping hand in the New World. The Mages Association unexpectedly became a middleman that both forces could recognize. The Academy strongly recommended it, and the Mages Association also passed the proposal, inviting Alexander to leave as soon as possible to mediate the civil war in the human kingdom.

"While I was leaving, His Excellency Kasper was in charge of daily affairs, William, you should run around and find out what the dwarves are doing recently." Alexander's news made Kasper ecstatic. in front of you. The Lion King continued: "The top of Mora has been closed to the country for several months, and there is no news coming in or out. I always have a bad premonition, such a day is really disturbing."

"Okay, leave this to me." William rubbed his hands together, looking excited. "I have long wanted to try whether the dwarves' rune defense system really has no loopholes to drill."

"Don't cause unnecessary disputes, just let you reconnaissance, not war."

Casper made a few words of hypocrisy, expressing modest and cautious optimism that he could manage the Association of Mages. The Lion King seemed to trust him, but his true thoughts were hidden so deeply that it was impossible to tell from his serious face. William still looks like a gamer, but if he doesn't have a sense of responsibility, how can he be selected as one of the Big Three?

These two guys are not easy to deal with, their hole cards are deep, but who doesn't have a few hole cards? Teacher Casper is full of confidence, and his layout is being realized step by step.

At this moment, the door of the conference room was slammed open, and a mage appeared at the door. Such a reckless move triggered the attack of the gate-sealing barrier, and for a time, the elemental energy was like a gust of wind and rain, overwhelming the daring ghost at the door.

The mage waved his wand and instantly projected himself onto the plane of shadow, trying to dodge the attacks. At the same time, the protection spells on him also light up in turn, forming layers of protection. But all this did not have much effect, the spell still blew him out of the shadow world, and did not continue to pounce on it.

Alexander frowned, then raised his hand, all the elemental fluctuations calmed down instantly, the spell left a gorgeous appearance, but lost its lethality. This move was beyond everyone's expectations, and even the other two masters didn't understand how to do it.

"Scola, why are you still so reckless, don't you know we're in a meeting?"

It turned out that this person was the apprentice of the Lion King. He was very talented in spells, but his temper was impatient and straight, and he looked like a stunner all day. If it was normal, he would smile and say "I know the teacher will save me" to perfunctory. But this time he was sweating profusely and looked very flustered.

"Elves," his tone trembled: "The elves raided the hub castle, where the mage tower is under attack. There was also news from Ximu Town that the elf cavalry had controlled the transportation of the port, and all except the mage tower had changed owners. ."

"Are they crazy?!" The three masters stood up at the same time, and Alexander slammed the table. "The New World is not a place where his elves can run wild. In the agreement between humans, dwarves, and elves, they can only move within the range of the elves' rune tree. Attacking other areas is an invasion. What's the point?"

"Master, the Elf Forest stood up and ran around on his legs. Therefore, the border of the Elf is constantly expanding, and it has occupied the hinterland of the New World." Made a mighty army, an army of trees. Runewood comes alive!"

"Immediately issue the highest alarm and tell the lord of Waterdeep to prepare for war." Then he said to William: "It seems that I can't go to the academy, and I'm worried about the New World. You go to the dwarves as quickly as possible. , ask them for their opinions. If no one pays attention to you, tear down their adamantine gates and ask if the agreement between the three clans is meaningless to them?"

William nodded and answered decisively: "Don't worry, I will complete this matter as quickly as possible."

"Master Kasper, now in the Three Peaks Pagoda, among the mages with a higher level of spells, the members who belonged to the common society accounted for the largest part. It will take some time for other mages to receive the news and rush back, and they are affected by The attack is on the Mage Tower, which is jointly built, and you are more familiar with the situation there. So the first wave of defense is handed over to you!"

Kasper nodded, holding the staff of power tightly with his fingers, the anger in his heart was almost uncontrollable. Just a little bit, you can send Alexander to the old continent, and you're just a little bit away from monopolizing the Mage Federation. What are the elves going crazy? Haven't they always been peace-loving? Expansion is not their style!

Only in the period when humans have not yet appeared ~www.readwn.com~ the world is ruled by dragons, the elves have a strong expansion. With the magical powers they have learned and improved continuously, they unite with the dwarves and continue to encroach on the territory ruled by the dragons. It was not until later that the dragon created orcs and kobolds to make up for its numerical disadvantage, and it was able to block the attacks of elves and dwarves.

It seems that the number of their deaths is still too small, as long as the elf forest is more than 100,000 dead, it will basically be able to drive out the elves of the new continent. Casper remained silent and happily accepted the task assigned by Alexander. Regardless of war, as long as there is chaos, the forces of destruction will always find opportunities.

He stood up and strode out. At this moment, he suddenly remembered what Alexander had just said. "Now in the Three Peaks Pagoda, the members of the original common club account for a large proportion of the mages with higher spell levels." When did the Lion King count this data, why did he pay attention to the distribution and number of the common mages, did he notice anything?

Master Kasper gritted his teeth lightly and began to revise his original plan. It is necessary to consider whether it is necessary to do it in advance.
