A young female mage behind Tiffany snorted and laughed. This female mage was wearing a white robe and riding a horse. She looked like Tiffany's student. wWW. QuANbEn-XiAoShUo. comBut Tiffany didn't react to her rude smile, let alone scold her. "Salin did the right thing." Tiffany replied coldly, making Yi Sui feel happy.
If she hadn't followed Salin, she wouldn't have been so frivolous in front of Balder. The status gap between the two sides was too great. The Grand Duke of the House of Commons in Holy Rock City was thousands of times more powerful than she, a woman from the Earl's family who had no inheritance rights. But now, she is also a duke, although she is a duke with little land and less than a thousand soldiers.
After hearing Tiffany's words, Balder suddenly realized that Ben Lin was a great magician. If he asked him to go out of the city to greet him, he would offend the magician behind him!
But Elaine's attitude made him very angry. He was very angry and could not get angry. Such emotions made Balder's face turn red, and he became silent for a while.
"Please come with me." Elaine whispered softly, then picked up the reins, turned the horse's head, and went off to mind its own business. Balder had to follow him. If he turned back to Holy Rock City, Sephiroth could skin him.
Fortunately, he was not really a waste. In an instant, he suppressed his anger, waved his hand, and led the large group of envoys to follow Elaine's welcoming team.
It was also awkward to welcome the team. Salin had originally prepared a guard of honor and a band to accompany them, but now the two sides collided and simply canceled the ceremony.
The team led by Balder had 3,000 accompanying soldiers. The troops escorted by Guderian City had already turned back. Together with the envoy group, Balder's team was late and numbered 4,000 soldiers.
This is very rare. In peacetime, an envoy group with 500 people is considered huge. Phoenix is not at peace, and Holy Rock City has to be careful. There were quite a few thieves who harassed them along the way. If they really only sent 500 people, the magicians would be busy.
The welcoming team led by Yi Sui was also the number of a whole desert regiment, with a thousand people. However, among these thousand people, 600 were honor guards, just for show. These people don't need to be very powerful. Every soldier in the honor guard is plump, tall and straight. Swordsmanship training is not taken into consideration at all. As long as you are handsome and majestic enough, you can be selected.
The remaining four hundred people were from the palace swordsman camp. This is Salin's newly formed team. They are basically all Caucasians, and all of them are tough and brave. Balder was observing the soldiers of the Palace Swordsman Battalion. He was also an intermediate swordsman. At first glance, he also had some changes in his view of the soldiers of Metatrin City.
These four hundred people were carefully selected, all riding magic wolves and carrying spears. The Caucasian spear is not the main battle weapon, but is used for throwing. The lethality of a javelin cannot be compared to that of an alchemical crossbow at any distance, but this weapon, which is between a javelin and a spear, is perfect for attacking. Spear weapons, armor-piercing weapons are always more powerful than swords.
A peasant soldier could pierce a soldier's heavy armor with a spear, but even leather armor might not be able to cut a fatal wound with a knife.
Salin specially equipped these Caucasians with a variety of weapons. The people who came out of the city to greet them were not dressed up like field troops, but all wore gorgeous armor.
Balder was not deceived. After he calmed down, he realized that the team of four hundred people was not simple. Balder was surprised. If Salin wanted to conceal his strength, there would be no need to send such powerful soldiers. If it was for publicity, It's time to replace the soldiers with good armor.
His thoughts were confused and he played into Salin's hands. Balder focused his thoughts on Saleen's army, and of course he would not consider other issues.
Salin's strongest asset is actually its navy. A dragon-wrecked warship made it impossible for Alchemy City's warships to overcome Castlevania's first-line maritime defense. The Bone Battleship and the Tortoise Alchemy Ship formed Salin's powerful navy. Saleen invested a lot of materials in the sea, because it was all handled by Wing Skull Consultants and was not shown in Metatrin City's financial expenditure.
Every time Wing Skeleton goes to sea, he must intercept certain supplies, which are invested in the navy. Saleen's current number of warships has exceeded twenty, because the operators are all undead, and they are all supported by Wing Skull alone. The daily consumption of magic cores was also a large amount, so Salein did not ask Wing Skeleton how much he had intercepted.
If Salin goes to war with the Qin Empire in the future, he will definitely start from Lianyun City instead of crossing Phoenix to attack Guderian City. Although Guderian City is not as good as Metatrin City, it is still an insurmountable barrier. Salin clearly remembered the majestic metal towers of Guderian City, which made him completely give up his plan to attack on land.
If Rex cannot control Qin Tu in the future, there will definitely be a battle between Salin and Qin Gu.
To paralyze the enemy, we must start now.
For Saleen, the best outcome is for Rex to control the Qin Yin Empire, let the goddess's faith spread, and then use Qin Yin as the foundation to attack the entire continent. If Rex cannot control Tain, Salin will have to attack Rex from both sides.
Balder's envoys followed Elaine's team, bypassed the West Feeder, and headed towards Metatrin City. When passing by the south of West Town, Balder was completely shocked. Also shocked was the Great Mage Tiffany. To the east of West Town, stands a ten-story magic tower!
Balder's mind was completely messed up. The ten-story magic tower was provoking the gods. Although most magicians have this idea, due to the mainland agreement made thousands of years ago, the tallest magic tower will always be nine floors, and even Alchemy City is no exception. The Metatrin City Kingdom has built a ten-story magic tower. No wonder the Holy See wants to send a separate expeditionary force to conquer this small kingdom.
Elaine can't be said to be shallow. Her ability to have the courage to separate from her family has proven what kind of young person she is. However, Balder's reaction also made her extremely proud.
The four great dukes have been tied to the Metatrin Kingdom. The higher Salin's achievements are, the higher the starting point of the four of them will be. It's not that she has no thoughts about Salin, but it's a pity that the women around Salin are all outstanding, and she hasn't seen Salin take action.
Elaine knew that Salin was not someone who could be impressed by women.
Fortunately, he got out early, and the current founding Duke is also pretty good.
Four hundred palace swordsmen rode magic wolves and dispersed into small groups to clear the way in front. Although this area has been developed by Salin, there are still forests on both sides of the road, and magic beasts appear frequently. The large monsters have retreated to the mountains, but there are still many small monsters. Most of the monsters are intelligent and rarely dare to attack when they see large groups of humans coming and going. But there are fools among humans, and there are also people who don’t know the depth among Warcraft.
This road is still fifty miles away and takes at least two hours to walk. In more than two hours, the team was attacked at least a dozen times. The attacking monsters were of a single species, all of which were first-level violent wild boars.
The Caucasus warriors were very easy to capture this first-level wild boar. The ** Demonic Wolf released a monster to intimidate, suppressing the wild boar at the same level, and then stabbed it with a spear, and it was completely done. The first-level magic core is also a gold coin. The Caucasian warrior used a hatchet to chop open the wild boar's head, took out the magic core, and put it into his pocket, without delaying his progress.
Balder was still shocked by what happened in the ten-story magic tower, but Tiffany started talking in a low voice with the female magician next to her.
"Stephanie, this Salin is a bit evil."
The white-robed female mage smiled and said: "Without any knowledge, how could the entire Vatican army be wiped out?" "Isn't there a ninth-level magician in the ten-story magic tower?"
"You don't know yet? Metatrin City invited two ninth-level magicians from the Principality of Rhine. The Red Tiger Support Corps is no longer worthy of the title of ninth-level support group." Stephanie, the white-robed mage captain Mage Vani's attitude didn't seem to be respectful at all. The two were communicating on an equal footing.
"I know, but I just can't believe it. Why would a ninth-level magician work for a... little fifth-level magician?" Tiffany's information is not well-informed. She doesn't know that Salin is already a sixth-level magician. .
"Tiffany, you have been short of plutonium since you were a child. Of course you don't understand the hardships of poor mages. These two ninth-level magicians are arrogant and cannot rob. If Salin offers a good price, they will be obedient. Yes. Didn’t you see that Salin built a ten-story magic tower for these two guys, if it were the Holy Rock City, would you be willing to do this?"
"I'm afraid not." Tiffany shook her head. Although Shengyan City has gone to war with the Tanggulas Empire, Shengyan City still dare not do such a thing that violates the agreement made back then. Otherwise, it would be difficult to communicate with Yunliu and Skochina. It would be very unwise to have two unnecessary enemies.
"Even you and I are dissatisfied with the agreement made thousands of years ago. If Salin does this, many Master Qin Tu will come to seek refuge. This guy is very smart. It doesn't matter if he offends the Holy See. Anyway, the Qin Yin Empire is in charge. Now, he just took the opportunity to develop." Stephanie talked eloquently, her white magic robe swaying in the wind, like a blooming lotus.
Balder did not hear the magician's conversation. Even if he was a duke, he would not mess with an eighth-level magician. He was riding a war horse and was already walking side by side with Yi Lian. In the martial Qin Yin, this was very common. In Yunliu, the red tape and rules could exhaust a person who was not familiar with the rules.
"Your Excellency Elian, I was rude just now." Balder suddenly apologized. Elaine turned sideways, glanced at Balder, and smiled. Her charming smile was not intentional. "week-next one one one one one one one"
"Duke, just call me Elaine. You are the first-class Duke and I am the third-class Duke. There is a huge difference." Seeing Balder's resignation, Elaine didn't care about the initial embarrassment. Saleen's order was not to let Balder's arrogance overwhelm her. F! ~!
