Hill, who was squatting on top of his magic tower and keeping an eye on the undead, finally thought of something...the small magic towers that Drifos once controlled.
In fact, it's no wonder that he forgot about those things... Dreyfus was so dead that not even a scrap was left.
How could he care about the outcome of some students in Driffus who may not even have the eighth ring.
But Hill ignored it, although it stands to reason that if Dreyfus is gone, someone will naturally take over those resources.
But the Tower of Sea was only slightly defeated, but not completely defeated.
How dare people with no skills touch what they have.
However, it is impossible for anyone from the Tower of Siya to come out and take over those resource mines at this time.
Although they are greedy, they still have brains.
Not to mention that those in Toril were still there some time ago, even now, the devils will not come out to give experience to the undead on their own.
Then, those guys in the defense tower didn't even dare to come out of the refugee camp... Speaking of which, they no longer need to hide, but they haven't stopped until now.
Even Root can lead people to rush in so arrogantly.
This also has something to do with the fact that the capable guys in the refugee camp don't dare to come forward at all... Although they have proved Jos's blindness through previous events, if they can hide it, everyone still doesn't want to be too exciting.
A messenger of dawn.
Of course, these people must regret it now, especially after Demogorgon appeared.
Everyone understands that if they had not played tricks with Joss, the defense tower would never still be in ruins.
But now, they can only choose to remain silent and try to make their presence even lower.
Apart from these two parties, only the Tower of Black Mystery is the most natural person to take over the small magic towers of Drifos.
Especially, the Heinalson family in the Tower of Black Mystery.
Not to mention that the most valuable gem mine in Drifos's hands originally belonged to Heinalson, even several other former Mage Tower families who were exterminated by him also had some connections with Heinalson.
Just like the family that Gilbert's mother came from, if according to the formal aristocratic inheritance law, then Gilbert and Ulrich are the people most qualified to obtain that territory.
It's useless even if you want to fight over the defense tower.
If you want to deprive the legal heir of his power, you must have the power to make him dare not fight for it.
There is no such existence in this world now.
However, due to recent events, the Heinalson family has closed itself in the Tower of Black Mystery, with no intention of coming out to regain the lost territory.
As a result, the remaining forces in Drifos remained in place and no one moved.
Of course, with the undead running all over the mountains and plains, those who are on the surface will definitely not dare to stay.
However, there might be something else in those hidden mining areas.
Although the undead have always been very good at taking advantage of loopholes, this is a place where the Heinalson family has been able to hide even the defense tower for thousands of years. It is not easy for the undead to find it without a map.
It will definitely be exposed over time, but, at least for now, the undead's attention is not on running around and playing with the regional map.
The world is indeed a circle.
Hill, who wanted to understand this, couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
In fact, he would ignore these things related to Dreyfus, really because that guy died too simply.
If there was any conspiracy behind him, how could he just go offline like this?
However, Hill ignored that Dreyfus was the loser, the victim... and the controlled person in this internal fight.
The one who makes 'them' become him is the ultimate winner.
Although Dreyfus did not intend to give his trust to anyone with the same background as him, he chose followers and students in the Tower of Sea.
But how could such an outstanding conspirator let his chess pieces completely escape his grasp?
Therefore, the two students who Hill had heard mentioned several times were pretty good, but were swayed by Drifos's cronies and were just students with a reputation. They should all have problems!
Although Hill has little management experience, he still understands one thing... no matter whose subordinate the deputy comes from, and how trusted he is by the boss, his job will be his job.
As long as he doesn't get caught in a very serious way, he will be in an invincible position.
After all, generally speaking, a regular employee must be the most capable person among the group of people, and the one who is most valued and trusted by the boss.
No boss would put someone he doesn't trust at all into such an important position.
On the contrary, it is the deputy position that is most likely to cause problems.
They can be arrogant and domineering, and they can bully others, but they must not be caught with any substantive mistakes that endanger the boss's power... not even a little bit, not even suspected.
For a full-time job, there is no need to make a report. He can catch the culprit as a matter of course and go to the boss with evidence.
To put it bluntly, the deputy is so trusted but still cannot be corrected, which only proves that he does not have the strength at all.
In the world of mages, strength is power.
For so many years, far away from Derryfus's eyes, relying only on various communication methods and regular meetings, this proves that Derryfus has never felt that there is a problem with several of his attached small towers.
, the real problem is his two students.
Although Dreyfus was not a good person, and it was not a pity to die, Hill, who wanted to understand this, couldn't help but feel that this guy was really pitiful.
If the words of the 'Old Sanda King' are correct, it means that the manipulator who led Dreyfus to this fate has been hiding in the big house that she burned to ashes.
By the way, the younger brother who was killed by Dreyfus did have a good relationship with the suspected participant.
This is really... leaving people speechless.
——
"Felice!" The 'elderly Sanda King', who was sitting on the wolverine with a leisurely expression, waved to the little mage who was standing in the corner and looking towards the camp, "Do you want to go over there with us and take a look?
"
"Huh?" Felice was a little surprised, "Which way?"
"Aren't you also considered Heinalsen?" the 'Old Sanda King' said with a smile, "We are going to the most secret corner of your family's property now.
Do you want to take a look?"
When Felice heard this, he couldn't help but touch his right hand... The purple cat's eye ring on it was shining brightly.
Although what happened at the Tower of Sea is in the past, the storage rings brought by the returning mages are very enviable by those who stayed behind.
This is not a good thing, especially there are several eighth-ring mages among those left behind... They may not be dissatisfied because of the rings and resources, but the unbalanced "people have me and I don't", but they are likely to encounter them later.
In certain ups and downs, it becomes a thorn in the heart.
After the three tower owners of the Black Mystery Tower returned, they immediately distributed similar resources according to the level of those left behind.
Naturally, the Heinalson family was also listed as the left-behind family... This does not require any explanation.
Moreover, the three tower masters very carefully gave them opal rings... although the purple ones were only given to the two official mages, Ulrich and Felice.
Naturally, Felice also heard some past events.
He couldn't help but sigh: "Are you talking about the opal mine?
The area should have been almost excavated.
It’s just a pity that the alchemist master of the Heinalson family has a hidden magic circle... huh?”
Felice looked at the orange-red rose seal in the open palm of the 'Old Sanda King' in surprise. Ulrich's sigh at that time came to mind: Our hidden magic circle is really amazing.
, not only borrowing the attribute magic power of the cat's eye stone itself, but also linking the energy of the attached ore.
It's not like the defense tower hasn't thought about the cat's eye mine before, but the methods they thought of were all about the cat's eye stone itself, and they never thought that the real key would need to resonate with the layer of stone skin outside the cat's eye stone.
The key made by our master alchemist Heinelson looks like an orange-red rose seal with a purple cat's eye as the center.
The value of the thing itself is not precious. Orange red stone is the most common stone in cat's eye mines, and its only use is to lock in the escaped energy.
Although purple cat's eyes are very rare, you can always find a few in a mine. Besides, how big can you get?
However, who would have thought... Such an ordinary seal, which looks like a daily necessities of the person responsible for managing the mine, is actually the deepest secret of the Heinalson family.
It's a pity that the manager had to take the seal to the defense tower... ha~
The Tower of Siya is really good at finding opportunities, and takes advantage of the major families to send resources to the defense tower.
In order not to implicate anyone in the family, that one followed him and blew himself up.
The seal also disappeared.
Otherwise, our family would not have been able to escape so cleanly.
You can't enter the mine anyway, and the things outside are not as important as your life.
Ulrich's sigh was still fresh in Felice's memory!
He never expected that one day he would see this seal among the undead!
Ulrich had always thought that the reason why Drifos and the others were able to find the most secret place of the opal mine was because they would not mine in a planned manner like Heinalson did.
Although the core mine is hidden, you can still find something wrong by blasting the nearby ore.
How many intruders can cherish the achievements of others?
It was already pretty good to buy them Heinalson time to reach the Tower of Despair.
"This seal...where did you come from?" Felice couldn't help but ask, "In the ruins of the Tower of Despair?"
"No~" the 'Old Sanda King' looked unpredictable, "It's in the cesspit of the Tower of Despair!"
"Ah?" Felice was a little suspicious of his ears.
"Don't listen to her nonsense." An undead man riding a tiger approached them. "It's actually an enemy camp in the refugee camp."
