In the center of Coldwind City, there was a cloud of gray mist that could not be blown away by a gale. This mist works slowly, flowing at a low speed, shielding the prying eyes from outside, and also protecting a high tower inside.
Wizard's Tower.
As a spellcaster who masters the mysterious power of the world, wizards have always been known for their arrogance, indifference, and power. They regard mortals as ants, but they like to collude with the powerful.
Whether a city is strong, just look at how high the wizard's tower in the city is. Obviously, the wizards of Coldwind City have relatively average abilities, and the towers they live in are far inferior to the Banshee Fort.
But wizards still have the ability to keep trouble away from themselves. In fact, no matter what happened in the city, the running mob could not even find the entrance to the tower. They always drilled around in the gray mist, and then ran far away.
The tall tower overlooks the entire city, and Fabro and a dozen wizards are standing there watching the show. Well, it's a bit exaggerated to say'watching a play', and many wizards are actually frightened. The current situation is out of control.
Hundreds of fire spots burned in Cold Wind City, and the wind helped the fire, and the fire spread very quickly. The billowing smoke even obscured the view from the tower. The hungry people were transformed into mobs and destroyed everywhere. The city seemed to be destroyed.
"Should we take action?" A wizard supported the balcony of the tower, very disturbed by what he saw. "We can't watch those untouchables destroy the entire Coldwind City."
There are not many wizards in Coldwind City, or even the eight major factions. The alchemy department is the most practical, so the prestige of the chief alchemist Fabro is slightly higher. The wizards gathered together and looked at him when they had doubts.
Fabro looked back at his colleagues around him, amused and lamented in his heart. He had suffered a loss in the hands of Uncle Zhou, and he did not dare to despise the young man who broke out of the black forest. But other people..., I'm afraid they don't know their own burdens yet.
When Zhou Qingfeng entered the city yesterday, Mondino, his necromancer, came to visit Fabro. The latter has made a lot of treasures in the Elven Ruins in the past two or three months. It can be regarded as filling all the previous shortfalls and making a lot of surplus.
It was precisely because of the many benefits that Fabro made a 180-degree turn towards Zhou Qingfeng. In the past, he was extremely afraid of Shengguang Network. Now..., the habit has become natural.
Mondino stated that he wanted to become the Necromancer of the Wizards Association of Coldwind, and Fabro had no objection. There is no necromancer in Coldwind City at all, even a necromantic apprentice can be the chief.
But Mondino asked Fabro to control the Wizarding Guild in Coldwind City and be as neutral as possible. Fabro habitually stepped on two boats and hesitated to this request.
Zhou Qingfeng led a team to kill the Lehman family the next day, provoking a war against the noble forces in Coldwind City. Fabro stayed on the wizard's tower and was still thinking about how to make a move, only to see the hungry people in the city being mobilized.
Even for a legendary wizard, the spells that he can use every day are limited. And the more advanced the technique, the longer the preparation time, and the greater the cost. If there is no benefit in casting spells, self-financing wizards won't do it.
Fabro didn't want to use his precious spells on a mob with only a bad life left. When the number of mobs was particularly large, he didn't want to leave the Wizard's Tower. This is the internal cause, and the external cause is...
The nobles of Coldwind City obviously should have an absolute advantage, but they are like scattered sand in front of the fire. Everyone just cared about themselves, and the result was that most of the power gathered around the old long legs collapsed.
The remaining half also failed to play a role. It was a big defeat by the small number of Zhou Qingfeng. As for the fire that spread throughout the city, Fabro didn't care much.
"Don't worry about the fires, you won't be able to burn much." Fabro didn't want to intervene, so he comforted his colleagues around him, "Victor Hugo's men mainly burned the noble area, and they chose the location very restrained. The loss will not be too great."
As for the chaos, "Let's wait and see for a while. Victor Hugo is not easy to mess with."
"What if the Long-legged family is really defeated?" Another wizard looked at the direction of the City Lord's Mansion. It was far away and covered by heavy smoke. The situation seemed very bad.
Fabro sneered at this, "Then our new city owner is Victor Hugo."
The city lord said that he would change it, which seemed a bit sloppy. The wizards are pretentious and want to exert some influence on this, rather than simply and passively watching from the sidelines.
Fabro listened to his colleagues in a heated discussion in private, and there was only a sneer in his heart-Long-legged family, the lord of the city, will seek your support. Victor Hugo is the lord of the city, so you should ask for more blessings.
From the bottom of his heart, Fabro didn't like Zhou Qingfeng, and even more didn't like him as his lord. Because Zhou Qingfeng created too many rules and regulations, it also greatly restricted the power of the upper class, and was extremely tolerant to the bottom of society.
Dispersion of wealth and power will obviously make the original vested interests feel uncomfortable. However, Zhou Qingfeng has a greater ability, he can create more power and more wealth for distribution. Fabro could hardly refuse this.
There is no doubt that Zhou Qingfeng is a very powerful lord, which is not a good sign for the free and unsophisticated wizards. Fabro had tasted both the bitterness and the sweetness, and he had no choice but to bow his head and admit his counsel.
Other wizards did not have this knowledge, and naturally believed that no matter who ruled Coldwind City, they must come to please themselves. Those who hold such thoughts will definitely be beaten in the future.
Fabro didn't bother to correct his colleagues' thoughts. He saw someone release the familiar, and seemed to be going to pass on the situation that happened in Coldwind City. I also heard some people discuss how to bargain with Victor Hugo if he really wins. There are people...
A servant came in from the balcony of the tower and bowed to report: "Your Excellency Fabro, Your Excellencies, and the Deputy City Lord, Your Excellency Lehman, requested a meeting outside the tower."
Lehman
More than a dozen wizards looked at each other, whispered a few words in private, and quickly reached an agreement-it is not worth wasting time and tongue for this kind of bereavement dog that has been determined to lose power, "No see, let him go."
The servant went down to reply. The wizards were standing on the tower, and they could see a few embarrassed guys underneath that were so angry that they had to slip away with their tails between them. For this they laughed, full of abuse and superiority.
After a while, the servant came up again, and this time it was Young City Lord Marbury who wanted to meet. According to the servant's description, the dude almost knelt under the wizard's tower, crying bitterly, begging the wizards to take action and resist the invaders.
Now it’s not so easy for wizards to reach agreement. Someone wants to help, as long as the long-legged family pays a good price. But some people feel that Marbury is coming to ask for help, and the condition of Longlegs's family is probably very bad. Some people think we should wait...
After the quarrel, a violent explosion suddenly occurred in the direction of the city lord's mansion, and it was thunderous. A ball of fire lit up on the ground, rolling and spreading. It is so powerful that you can feel the heat radiation on the wizard's tower.
Fuck... Who is so good
Nine-level arcane is nothing more than that!
A dozen wizards were stunned. No one of them can release such a powerful spell, even defense. Fabro sighed slightly: "It seems that no one in the long-legged family has this ability."
Eh..., yes.
The stunned wizards suddenly realized, and hurriedly shouted to their servants: "No, no, no one from the long-legged family will be seen, immediately drive away."
