After the elite mage left the felt tent, Francois came with a surprise.
"You wouldn't guess how many people would buy the Philosopher's Stone..."
The answer is an order for thirty-six magic stones from "The Fall of the Mage Tower". "Look, we have recovered all the costs."
Every subsequent income is additional profit.
This was not the only good news. That night, after dozens of days of continuous meditation, Annan's magic power increased to level 2 - he could release spells twice in a row.
One time was a low-level summoning spell, and the other time was also a low-level summoning spell.
As second-level spells, low-level elemental summoning and low-level undead summoning Annan magic are not enough.
The second good news came the next day, when the extra who was the "nephew of the alderman" took care of Honatan Mays.
The Benitez Theater is now used by Annan.
From this comes the second semi-good news: the resistance to the stage play "The Fall of the Master's Tower" entering theaters has also disappeared. Those stage actors that Annan invited to teach are so familiar with the plot that they don't even need to rehearse, and all the props are ready-made
, including the Mage Tower.
"You will also take your fair share."
Annan said so and inserted Tina Wright into the stage play.
If the test screening made the upper class of Breeze City couldn't help but be curious, the stage play amazed the middle class in the city. However, the effect at the publishing house and the bard was not very good. People who came here because of "The Sky"
People returned disappointed.
In any case, "The Fall of the Mage Tower" has successfully set off a wave in Breeze City, and everyone wants to know what new things the King in the North has come up with.
Annan took advantage of this time to put the list of actors who should be at the end at the front. They were sorted by status and each person's identity was clearly marked, such as "Jeffrey, the Lord of Breeze City", "Mars Lawrence, the Lord of the Laurentian Family"
special".
But Annan ranked himself last.
"Why did you put yourself last?"
Michael guessed the reason and said complicatedly: "Because Annan is not the real King of the North..."
"After "The Fall of the Tower" is released, your stigma will be washed away a lot." Annan said to Francois, not caring about their silence.
Annan specially modified some scenes for Francois's "first officer" role, creating a tragic character with a tragic past who was misunderstood and finally committed suicide.
Ignoring Francois's expression of emotion, Annan checked the magic image again and felt that something was missing...
The magic video was shown again, and after the cast list suddenly appeared, Annan finally discovered that something was missing - the beginning.
Annan called Tina Wright over again and asked her to construct a rotating blue ball according to her needs, and then add a line of words below.
Annan wanted to call it another world, but it was too straightforward...so he changed it to New World.
But the meaning remains the same: a gift to the world.
Then tell Michael and the others that this title will appear in every magical video they create in the future.
"That's a great start, right?"
Annan relaxed and smiled.
The mage tower is on his side, the scavenger is on his side, and his son may even be on his side.
Now, Annan wants to win over the nobles to his side.
The premiere will be held the day after the apocalypse forecast, that is, three days later.
Annan is ready to face a new node.
…
Annan spent the morning of the "important moment" in the felt tent. Just after noon, a group of galloping cavalry stirred up vibrations and dust from the distant streets and slowed down near the mage tower.
Annan, who realized that they were coming for him, stood in front of the felt tent and watched the cavalry approaching.
The two knights wore exaggerated and luxurious armor that shone in the sun. The giant horses were thicker than Wanma, which made Annan feel the faint aura of a blue dragon.
Two envoy cavalry from the royal capital brought a document signed by Dionysius, the 87th King of the Kingdom of Ruikan. Along with the document came a development order:
"The King of the North, Annan Reeves. In the name of the Acting Secretary of the Interior, I grant you a development order, allowing you to develop the Glacier Bay area on the western coast of Breeze City with the promise of falling horse."
Annan is not ready yet.
…
Michael and Francois came quickly and took the king's documents and the development order from Annan.
"Why did the king suddenly give you territory?"
"Augusta Olmedo did this."
"Why does he want to help you get the territory? Does he want to truly reconcile with you?" Francois asked.
Augusta Olmedo's collusion with the Rats was known only to Annan and the Centurion.
Michael sensed part of the truth: "He wants to drive you out of Breeze City."
"Look at the signature on the development order."
Annan pointed to the signing of the development order.
Annan Reeves... This means that Annan has not shed his identity as King in the North.
What is chilling is also the time of signing: August 26 - when Annan was still in the dungeon.
Augusta Olmedo planned it all back then.
"Looking at the bright side, although Glacier Bay is a bitter cold place, as a lord you have autonomy. You can recruit people, train guards, and get rid of restraints. Even Olmedo can't control you." Michael said.
Annan also knew that, but this was not the right time. And what really worried him was that Augusta Olmedo's plan succeeded——
Annan needs to leave Breeze City, and if something happens in the wild, there is no time to rescue him...
Francois continued to study the document: "The acting interior minister is Vitalig, the second son of the king."
"Palace power struggle?"
"It seems that the second prince wanted to win over the King of the North, but he messed up."
Michael looked at Annan: "Do you have to go?"
"I have no right to refuse."
"When will we leave?"
"Tomorrow morning."
"Why so urgent?"
"Because of the pact that fell from the horse." Francois answered for Annan.
The allusion of the Covenant of Falling Horses is to let a knight start from the border until the horse cannot support it and the knight falls off the horse. The area enclosed by the knight is the territory.
The appearance of the Covenant of the Falling Horse in the Development Order means that Annan can enclose a vast territory.
So Annan would come back after arriving at Glacier Bay. This time he just went with two envoy cavalry to divide the territory.
But no matter what, Annan, who had all his arrangements interrupted, had to face the arrangements that Augusta Olmedo had planned a month ago.
"Will the premiere be postponed?" Michael asked.
"...continue, you will host it on my behalf."
But no matter how wise Augusta Olmedo is, he still doesn't realize the existence of magical images. This is Annan's opportunity to break the conspiracy.
When returning to the manor to prepare for departure, Ananfu went to his heart, summoned the blue dragon in the basement, and spent 10 gold to touch the apocalypse forecast again.
A countdown appeared, and it was seventy days later.
It seems that this pioneering trip is safe-at least he won't die.
The best...the worst outcome is to become a breeding tool for the rat men.
