The guards in the camp ran out from everywhere and immediately controlled the middle-aged magician.
The middle-aged magician stood among the soldiers, spreading his hands calmly and holding a wand in his left hand. He walked forward casually under the gaze of the guards.
The surrounding soldiers followed his steps and retreated.
He was not nervous or embarrassed at all, and even asked the guard:
"Where are you from?"
His eyes were very oppressive, bright and deep.
The guard felt a little guilty and said under the gaze of the middle-aged magician:
"We are the garrison of Dodan Town. We entered the Invercargill Warcraft Forest to eliminate the ghost-marked red ants here."
The middle-aged magician nodded with satisfaction, then gave an encouraging look and asked the guard:
"Where is your commander?"
Several guards unconsciously looked at Suldak.
Only then did Surdak walk out of the crowd and stand in front of the middle-aged magician.
The middle-aged magician looked at Surdak seriously and asked in a superior tone:
"Are you the commander of this army?"
"I am. Your Excellency is..." Surdak walked up to the middle-aged magician and answered humbly.
"Very well, I just have something to tell you."
The middle-aged magician looked proud and pointed at the mineral vein behind him and said to Suldak:
"I have decided to apply to the Magic Guild. From now on, this Warcraft Forest will become my territory. I will be the Lord of Invercargill, and everything here will belong to me..."
After speaking, he glanced around again, lowered his voice, put his arm around Suldak's shoulders, and said somewhat proudly:
"Since you are the garrison in Duodan Town, I think we will need to cooperate with each other in the future. As long as you help me open up this Warcraft Forest, I can pay you some extra remuneration. I think you should know someone without me saying it."
What benefits will a magician bring to you? I am very good at alchemy."
The middle-aged magician puffed out his chest and stretched out his hand to Surdak, trying to reach an agreement with Surdak in a condescending manner.
Surdak did not stretch out his hand, but held the hilt of the sword with one hand and said bluntly:
"Sorry, this is already an unknown area being developed by the Lutheran Legion's independent cavalry battalion."
Without even asking the middle-aged magician's name, he took out the Green Empire Code and continued:
"According to the Green Empire's 443 Land Distribution Law, the noble lords can randomly select a piece of territory from the unknown area of land developed by the Green Empire. As for the area of the territory, it should be 40% of the total area. The remaining land will be turned over to the Green Empire and Bei.
Nahan Province, my army has set foot in these woodlands and carved a path through this unexplored territory."
The middle-aged magician was a little surprised. He didn't expect Surdak to reject him so bluntly.
"I'm afraid you won't be able to make such an application to the Wilkes Magic Guild again," Suldak said again.
"Do you know who you are talking to? I am the great magician of the Bena Province and a member of the board of directors of the Bena Alchemy Guild. I came to the Invercargill Warcraft Forest in the Bailin plane. I have traveled all over this place.
I think I am qualified enough to apply for this territory." The middle-aged magician straightened his face and said to Surda Ke with a serious face.
The middle-aged magician did not expect that the garrison commander in front of him actually had the same idea as him and had already led his army into Invercargill Forest.
He regretted flying down so hastily. He didn't expect that they were actually a group of competitors, and they didn't have enough respect for the magician.
He felt a little guilty, but didn't want that look to show, so he could only puff up his chest and reveal the pure gold mage badge on his chest, deliberately letting Surdak see clearly the magician's wand and magic book pattern.
badge.
Suldak had seen something similar on Lance's chest, but it was made of silver, and only the golden veins could be seen on the relief pattern.
He looked at the soldiers surrounding him on the left and right sides, waved them to move away, and said to the middle-aged magician:
"You can't just set foot here and regard this place as the area you occupy. If you calculate it this way, if you step into Bena City from the Bailin plane portal, will you feel that the entire Roland continent belongs to you?
Already?"
The middle-aged magician stared at Suldak and asked with a dumb smile:
"You also want to take a fancy to this territory, which only shows that you are also very discerning, which is good, but then we will be considered competitors."
He didn't even wait patiently for Surdak to answer, so he said casually:
"Okay, then we really have nothing to talk about. When nobles occupy territory, they can only rely on their own abilities. But I didn't say that you are currently occupying the Invercargill Forest in the Bailin plane. We
There is nothing I can do but stand outside and watch and then applaud for love.”
At the end, the middle-aged magician forced a smile on his face and said slyly: "I hope to see you again in Wilkes City..."
After saying that, he pulled out the magic handle from his magic belt and deliberately stopped making any contact with Surdak's eyes.
He stepped on the magic handle with his legs, pulled up the wooden handle of the handle, and swooped into the night sky with very quick movements.
…
At this time, Samira nimbly jumped from the tree to a huge boulder in the open space, aimed at the remaining figure of the old magician in the dark night sky, and fully drew the 'Sky Strike' bow. The fine steel arrows continued to flash with arcs of electricity, and a trace of lightning flashed on them.
The silk wind element flew out from Samira's fingertips, like strands of silk thread wrapped around the arrow shaft.
In the night wind, the arrow made a crackling sound of lightning.
Just as the arrow was about to leave the string, Surdak rushed over and held down Samira's shoulders.
"Don't! He's holding a magic scroll in his hand!" Suldak frowned and said, "If this arrow can't kill him, we will have a grudge with the Bena City Magic Guild, and he probably wants to wait for us.
Shooting this arrow and murdering the mage nobles will immediately put the crime on our heads. When the time comes, the summons from the House of Representatives Tribunal will also make me have no time to occupy this land..."
Samira looked at Suldak and said nothing.
The wind element condensed in the palm of his hand turned into wisps of extremely fine threads and dissipated in the night sky.
"We continue to do our thing." Suldak said again.
At this time, Andrew, who was patrolling outside, happened to return to the camp. Hearing that a magician actually came to the camp, he was a little surprised and said: "It's so late, and he's flying back on a magic weapon?... That's really enough.
Damn, what was he doing during the day?"
"I'll go to Wilkes City in a while."
Surdak walked back to the campfire and sat down.
The firelight in the camp and the low cry of the Thunder Rhino continued to attract the ghost-striped red ants in the surrounding woods. The young natives held alloy bows and stood in the shooting position beside the Thunder Rhino, constantly harvesting their prey.
.
Nowadays, the soldiers have become more experienced in dealing with ghost-striped soldier ants.
The next morning, the corpses of ghost-striped soldier ants piled up in front of the camp had become like a hill.
The cavalry battalion, led by Andrew, continued to advance toward the northeast of Invercargill Forest along the mineral vein.
Suldak's main mission when he entered the Invercargill Forest this time was to find this mineral vein, explore how big the area was, and clear away the ghost-marked red ants and forest monsters along the way.
It's just the exposed part of this vein that really surprised Surdak, it's really too big.
After the morning sun rose, a dazzling light appeared close to the surface.
Through this ray of sunlight, one can clearly see the dark insect valley in the north of the forest, which towers high into the clouds.
Several rocs flew across the blue sky, and there were several clear and clear chirps that penetrated the clouds...
