The office is on the cliff, with large pieces of transparent glass and a room overlooking the vast scenery.
Lorraine Hill was not sitting at the desk at this moment, but was taking a nap on the sofa next to the coffee table. Her head rested on her arm leaning on the sofa. Her light green hair fell like silk. Together with her breathing, she gently
Light ups and downs.
Such a quiet time did not last long. At noon, a knock on the door woke up the sleeping girl.
She quickly adjusted her clothes, looked at herself and saw that there was nothing inappropriate, and then opened the door.
"Hello, Your Highness Jialan." A witch wearing a white robe with red leaves saluted the girl and then raised her head.
She has long jet black hair, and the hair on the side of her ears is tied with a red hairband. Her dress also has an oriental style. This witch is one of the Sequence 7 of the Southern Territory, Yin Huanbi.
"It turns out it's you." Fortunately, it wasn't another acquaintance, and Lorraine Hill breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's disturbing the teacher's work."
After entering the room, Yin Huanbi sat on the sofa politely, with her knees together and her hands in front of her, very dignified. Because of her parents' teachings since childhood, she has always paid attention to these details.
Looking at this child's serious look, Lorraine Hill couldn't persuade him too much. After all, everyone has their own habits and styles.
"What are you doing here today?" Lorraine Hill thought she was here to ask him some questions about practice. As a witch who has learned a lot, Lorraine Hill can be said to be one of the few in terms of breadth of knowledge.
And, this is why Yin Huanbi respects him so much.
"No, I have been disturbing the teacher in the past, but today I came here to do some work matters." Yin Huanbi shook his head slightly, and then got down to business.
"We received a message from the Witch of Four Seasons on the front line, so we came to report the situation to you."
"So that's it." Lorraine Hill nodded slightly, then picked up the teapot on the table and poured tea for the other party and himself.
Although there is already a telegraph in the southern border, it is not currently used as the only means of communication due to problems such as the large number of transmission nodes and easy distortion.
A lot of confidential information is still conveyed through birds or people in person, which is more detailed.
"Our two armies marching to the west have achieved a lot of results some time ago."
…
The witch first talked about the areas conquered in the past two weeks and some of the results of the subsequent pacification and takeover.
"However, as we gradually penetrate deeper into the hinterland of the Western Territory, the resistance is also intensifying." What follows is the focus of this report.
"Lord Jie Lann has initially mastered the power of the Holy Sword and led his knights to conquer the Orange Plains Territory, which is an important grain-producing area in the Western Region."
"In addition to Sir Geran, there are also Wyatt, Mazarando, Trask, Linton, and Galare. A total of five great knights have been recognized by the Holy Sword one after another."
"It's pretty fast." Lorraine Hill commented softly.
The holy sword she bestowed upon Jerranen was not to be used without any conditions or costs. As the holder of the crown who formulated the new rules for transcendent advancement in the world, Lorraine Hill also attached similar mastery conditions to the separated power fragments of the crown.
, that is a holy sword made with the 'Seven Virtues' as a reference and combined with the crown's ability.
When a certain character of the user is strong enough and the will can go through many tests and become extremely firm, the power in the holy sword can be elicited and in turn strengthen this will, which can also fight against the phantom of chaos.
A sharp weapon will greatly reduce the difficulty of advancement.
Originally, among the great knights under Jelanen, only Wyatt and Galarei were Sequence 7, and the others were only Sequence 6 at most. Now, in just one or two months, three people have advanced from Sequence 6 to become Sequence 7.
The Holy Sword was of great help in this.
After being relieved and free, Lorraine Hill no longer dwelled on the obstacles of the past, and started to use the various abilities of the crown. Even if it is not complete now, he can still do many things that ordinary people can't imagine.
"Yes, although many people in the organization were distrustful at first, many people have begun to change their views now." Yin Huanbi said about the internal thoughts of Fairy Wood.
In fact, when they first heard that they wanted to support Jie Lann, the son of a nobleman, many people were opposed to it. However, because it was Lorraine Hill's suggestion, it was still passed with a large vote.
Lorraine Hill: "Identity politics is not a good thing."
In order to gain the power to win and change, blindly speaking about political correctness is actually divorced from reality and can easily go to the other extreme. Thinking of past experiences, Lorraine Hill shook his head helplessly.
"After capturing the Tachibana Territory, we will move forward to the Grizzly Bear Territory, an important iron-producing area and ordnance manufacturing area in the western territory."
"Our personnel received intelligence. Under the order of the old Duke, an elite force of about 100,000 people will gradually return from the front line of the confrontation between the Eastern and Western Empires to resist our attack."
"After the initial turmoil, the Western Army gradually arrived at the border territories where they were fighting. The coalition of nobles from various places probably numbered around 500,000, of which about one-fifth were private armies maintained by the nobles all year round. In addition,
Most of them were recruited in recent years and have different levels of training."
"These nobles must have realized the danger." Lorraine Hill slowly stirred the tea cup and began to think about the situation in the west.
Today, most of the military strength in the Western Region is not located internally, but at the border where the Eastern and Western Empires confront each other. There are about 800,000 troops there. After several years of fighting, they have slowly gotten rid of the lack of training in the past.
Under such circumstances, it was quite difficult for the nobles of the Western Region to gather another 500,000 troops. After all, they had to retain some garrison troops to protect their castles and territories.
In the war a few years ago, the Western Army invaded the central part of the empire and took away a large amount of wealth. This gave the Western nobles the courage and desire to continue fighting against the Eastern Empire. Otherwise, under the system of a feudal country, recruiting soldiers would be impossible.
Not so easy.
"Where is the Duke of Raven in the North? Didn't he take action?"
Although the Northern Territory has experienced years of cold disasters, serious personnel losses, and deep internal problems, it is not impossible to occupy this large area of land without doing anything.
"There is very little information coming from the north. I just heard that there is a conflict between the factions of Duke Raven and Black Feather Witch."
"What exactly happened?" Although he had been to the Northern Territory, Loland Hill never knew much about the nobles and upper classes in the Northern Territory.
Compared with the other four realms, the situation in the northern realm is very complicated. Witches, survivors of Everdark Island, and original residents are all intertwined.
Originally, the witch and the survivors of Everdark Island were both descendants of the Mercury Dynasty, and they had worked together as one and got along harmoniously. However, with the rise of the witch, the witches in the North inevitably followed her will and began to guide the people of the North.
The great lord gradually fought against the new emperor and some new trends in the southern region.
Things like this gradually made the Trey family passive and unhappy.
As a traditional and conservative northern noble, the Trey family has always been loyal to the empire, which is also due to the tacit recognition of past oaths.
The cold northern border has always been short of many supplies, which requires the support of the central emperor of the empire, and the emperor also needs the loyalty of the northern border to support the royal power and maintain his rule.
The vows made in the past have been beneficial to both parties, so they have always been firm and tacit.
However, due to the intervention of the witch Ge Jialide, the alliance between the North and the West inadvertently promoted the fall of the new emperor, causing the empire to collapse and split, which put the Trey family into a rather passive environment.
Many of the creeds that supported the Northern Territory in the past began to collapse, and many powerful supernatural beings also broke away from the Trey family. After the fall of the Imperial Emperor, many blood-sworn lords in the central region were leaderless, and there was no possibility of reconciliation with the Northern Territory.
The encroachment of the nobles of the Western Region into the central part of the country intensified their hatred. This finally led to the Trey family being unable to get off the tiger. It was impossible to turn back. They had to go all the way with the Western Region to the dark side in order to obtain enough food and grain-producing land.
settle their own people.
However, the world is always changing.
After Lorrantheil and Vimiya teamed up to solve the cold disaster, the northern border gradually recovered and food production began to slowly resume. At this time, many conservative northern nobles raised their heads again, hoping to break away from this alliance dominated by the western border.
Stay neutral.
From the perspective of outsiders, it would be foolish to leave the powerful alliance alone and isolate themselves. However, if you look at the position of the northern nobles, you will find that this is not surprising.
The alliance with the gryphons in the Western Territory is very powerful, but there is no such thing as how much benefit this strength can bring to the Northern Territory.
The Eastern Empire not only has the rich Eastern Territory, but also contains the elves who are closely related to the nobles of the Eastern Territory. If the elves want to participate in the battle with the Northern Territory, it will be a disaster for the Northern Territory.
Today's Northern Territory is not the Northern Territory that was 20 years ago when the empire was prosperous and had not experienced the cold disaster.
At that time, if the northern nobles were allowed to fight against the Emerald Forest, they would not be afraid, but would feel eager to try.
But the impact of the cold disaster is huge. Many lives have been lost, property and wealth have been lost, and the growth of the new generation has been difficult. The proportion of high-level extraordinary beings is far lower than that of other duchies. Today's North is really not suitable for participating in the war with the elves.
In the conflict, not only are the powerful forest elves beside them, but also the ice elves facing each other across the sea.
After the two tribes restored contact, no one could guarantee that one day the ice elves would not go south to take back the land that once belonged to them. After all, thousands of years ago, most of the northern border was the land of the ice elves kingdom.
There were many ice elves living here at that time.
Nowadays, the northern border has long lost the Jackdaw Fleet across the ice sea, and there is no way to stop the ice elves from going south. Blindly confronting the Eastern Empire will not only gain little benefit, but also face great dangers, irritating the elves.
This view was recognized by many northern nobles. They gathered around the Trey family and gradually put pressure on the witch faction to give up their alliance with the Western Empire, withdraw from the Western Empire, and restore their neutral status.
"So, for the above reasons, the Northern Territory did not send troops to support the internal war in the Western Territory. Maybe they will also face an internal struggle." Yin Huanbi slowly told.
"It's getting chaotic." Lorraine Hill sipped his tea and looked at the table, thoughtfully.
Next, Yin Huanbi introduced several great nobles in the Lower Western Region who had gathered their troops for support, as well as the elite private troops under their command, and finally asked Lorraine Hill if he still needed to send some more people to support the Western Region.
"No need, I had a plan before. Just stick to the original plan. Blindly trying to be quick and interrupting the original arrangement will only make a lot of things mess up." The girl shook her head.
The plan in the war involves many projects, the recruitment and training of personnel, the production preparation of logistics materials, the arrangement of stations mobilized along the route, etc. Random changes will only make things complicated and worse.
If it's running well, it's best not to interfere with it. Maybe you think you're just twitching a brick, but in fact it's shaking the foundation of the entire building.
"I know they will encounter some difficulties during this period, but nothing can always go smoothly, and I can't protect them forever. They have to learn to grow up."
Compared with the weak appearance in front of her former companions, in the eyes of Yin Huanbi and other witch students, Lorraine Hill is undoubtedly a powerful witch, with her amazing appearance and charm, her far-reaching wisdom, tolerance and understanding.
Their hearts have always been worshiped by them.
In their opinion, this is the attitude and appearance that a witch should have, so firm and powerful that it makes people fascinated and followed.
"Yes, Your Highness, I will convey your will to them."
Seeing that the teacher had made his decision, Yin Huanbi stood up respectfully, bowed to salute, and then slowly left.
When the room became quiet again, Lorraine Hill got up from her seat again. She came to the side and pushed open the closed glass window. The mountain breeze blew in, bringing up the hair and curtains, and the air became
Be refreshed.
Looking at the long and spacious mountain road below, there are male and female residents wearing various colors of clothing, fairy wood soldiers patrolling in formation, mages and alchemists wearing conspicuous robes, businessmen bargaining, and organizational political personnel wearing white robes.
There are also knights riding flying dragons who glide through the mountains from time to time, conveying letters and orders.
The sky is exceptionally blue, and the wind brings the noise and atmosphere of the distance.
Looking blankly at the constantly rotating world, Lorraine Hill's eyes flashed with emerald brilliance, so clear and as pure as gems. As the girl gently stretched out her hand, colorless vortexes of air swirled within.
Continuously, the entire atmosphere of the sky is affected by it.
The mana floating in the sky is pulled by this airflow and transformed into the magic of the natural sequence. A fresh and life-filled breath sweeps across the gray cliff rocks, causing little green buds to sprout, like soft bird feathers falling to the ground, nourishing
Looking at the plants in the mountains, the snow-white fairy flowers are blooming on the high cliffs.
Natural Sequence 8·Swinging Blue Bird, achieved.
After experiencing many changes after the sudden change in the world, Lorraine Hill, who had been sleeping for several years, finally caught up with the progress of other witches and officially entered the realm of Sequence 8.
