Chapter 708 - 708. Vulture Mountain

The council was very fast. Ten days later, Minister Duke delivered the Level 7 Druid Relic.

"Mr. Furnace, this is the Level 7 Druid Relic that we applied for you at the Regional Council."

Rudolf looked at this special relic carefully and said with a smile: "This is not a relic applied for me, but for you. I have become stronger, and ordinary people in Maha City have time to transfer. Use your relics to help you do things."

"Yes, yes, this is to help ourselves, not to help you."

Seeing Furnace staring at the relic in a trance, Duke felt a little uncomfortable.

This level 7 relic is made from the nerve system of a druid's arm, which is closer to an organ specimen.

In a short crystal column, the nerve system of a druid's arm is sealed in an unknown way. The red nerve bundle flashes with lightning in the crystal, just like the dense thunder in a thunderstorm. This druid relic is called the level 7 lightning pulse.

Afterwards, Duke took out another box, which contained two relics, one of which was the level 7 Oblivion Priest Relic and the other was the level 7 White Magic Priest Relic.

"Mr. Furnace, we have brought you all the priest relics in stock, hoping to provide you with more help."

"Very good, I am in need of a level 7 White Mage priest relic, otherwise I will have to waste an alchemist relic. You know, it is difficult to get alchemist relics now, we are too familiar with them, and we are embarrassed to start."

Duke smiled awkwardly: "Thank you for your embarrassment."

"I will not waste time, I will go to accommodate the new North Sky Constellation Secret, and I will definitely come back before the defense of Maha City."

The secret location of the Sagitta is located in the Vulture Mountains, which is now the dividing line between East and West Elba.

After simply instructing Cooper, Rudolf left Belfort City.

Before Rudolph came back, Cooper and Ivonna could not be soft-hearted and agree to Duke's instigation to go to Maha City in advance. Only by following Rudolph could they go to Maha City.

Before going to the Vulture Mountains, Rudolph planned to stop by the Port of Cordore to meet the Marquis of Golden Anchor and ask what the attitude of the royal family was.

After the Constitutional Navy transferred half of its forces to the inland river Garonne River, the intensity of the naval battle between Oyster Bay Port and Cordore Port decreased a lot.

The Constitutional Navy in Oyster Bay Port was unable to launch a large-scale attack, and the Royal Navy in Cordore Port did not beat the fallen dog, but quietly accumulated strength.

When the Starlight South Ship brought Rudolf to the Port of Kordor, Rudolf saw a lot of civilian merchant ships. The Royal Navy was doing well, and even merchant ships could enter the Port of Kordor in large numbers.

Rudolf didn't want others to know that he came to see the Marquis of Golden Anchor, which would be bad for the Marquis of Golden Anchor.

There was a knock on the door outside the Marquis' study late at night.

Hearing the knock on the door, the Marquis of Golden Anchor Paru looked up in surprise.

If an officer wanted to see him, he would report it through the attendant, and the attendant's knock on the door was specially trained, and it would not be so casual.

In the Port of Kordor, no one could knock on his door so casually.

"Come in."

The butler who had been serving Marquis Parlu had prepared an emergency plan, ready to let the Marquis's guards hiding behind the wall break through the wall at any time to provide the Marquis with extreme strength.

When Marquis Parlu saw the person coming, he immediately signaled the butler not to act rashly, and then said to the butler: "You leave first, leave with your head down."

The butler lowered his head obediently, stared at his feet, and walked out of the study silently.

As a butler, he didn't know who the Marquis was going to meet. If it was the previous butler Wenler, he would definitely not be driven out like him.

Rudolf entered the Marquis' study and sat on the sofa.

"Mr. Marquis, your furnishings are still exactly the same, no changes."

"These furnitures don't need to be changed." Marquis Paru looked at Rudolf and said, "You have changed a lot, Rudolf. Intelligence says that you have been promoted to a level 7 wizard?"

"Yes, I have been promoted to a level 7 wizard."

Hearing the affirmative answer, Count Paru felt a little unreal.

When this young man first came to Kordor Port, he was still a level 4 wizard. In more than two years, he has become a level 7 wizard, and the speed of promotion is very exaggerated.

"Count Parlu, I think you must know that the wolf tide is raging on the border of West Elba, and half of the provinces in Garonne have been reduced to ruins and death."

"Yes, I know." Count Parlu lowered his eyes, and he had guessed what Rudolf was going to do.

"Count Parlu, I think you must know that the evil god cult has landed on the Eagle's Mouth Peninsula and built the first temple on the Eagle's Mouth Peninsula, the temple of the Oblivion Church."

"Yes, I know."

"What I really want to ask is, what is the attitude of the royal family and nobles of East Elba on the two issues of the wolf tide and the evil god cult?"

Count Parlu stared out the window for a long time, and what he was going to say next made him embarrassed.

After sighing, Count Parlu said:

"Rodolf, the court of East Elba is now divided into three factions, and these three factions have been arguing.

The first faction is the old-school nobles headed by the Duke of Unicorn Stuart Cavendish, which also includes me.

Our attitude is that we should take advantage of the disasters that West Elba has suffered one after another to extend a helping hand, win the hearts of the people of West Elba, and thus regain the right to rule West Elba.

When the civil war just started, we were considered hardliners. We were the first nobles to respond to the king's call and join the battlefield, because we believed that the honor of the nobles must not be tarnished and the alchemists must not be allowed to make further advances.

However, since the emergence of the wolf tide, we have all become moderates, because we believe that the pride of the nobles does not allow us to take advantage of others' misfortunes and do something bad.

Not only should we not take the opportunity to attack Xi'erba, we should also help Xi'erba. .

Our attitude was ridiculed by the second group of nobles. The hardliners, led by the Duke of Ram Arsino, believed that the alchemists must agree to the nobles' demands, the parliament must be dissolved, and all alchemists above the provincial parliament president must be executed.

The hardliners believed that the alchemists of West Elba were not capable of leading the people of Elba to fight against the wolf tide and the evil god cult. Only the knights could gather the power of the majority and complete the integration of power.

At this time, the nobles It is a good time for the knights to launch a massive attack, seize land, seize population, and expand the power of the nobles.

For this reason, the Duke of Arsino applied to His Majesty the King to go to the front line. The King approved his application. Now the Duke of Arsino is preparing for a massive attack under the Vulture Mountains.

And the third faction among the nobles, the most important royal family, has a worrying attitude towards Sielba. "

Rudolf looked at Count Parü. Carloman XVI's attitude is the key to the civil war.

Count Pallu said painfully:

"Even if we follow the hard-liners' approach and directly send troops to capture all the land in West Elba, and then lead the knights to fight against the wolf tide and the cult of evil spirits, the Duke of Unicorn and I are willing. This is the next best thing."

The problem now is that His Majesty the King's attitude is becoming more and more clear, and he is ready to add fuel to the fire.

His Majesty sent the Duke of Arsinoe's Knights of the Ram to the front to show that he would not let West Elba go.

He did not allow several knights on the front line to attack and occupy the land in a large scale. The front line received orders to contain as many Constitutional Forces as possible and constantly harassed and put pressure on the Constitutional Forces.

Could it be that the power of destruction appears in the West? The capital of Elba, Legere City, means that West Elba must be completely destroyed before the power of destruction will appear?

We don't know about immortality, but the Duke of Unicorn and I are very entangled. We can't do anything now. Without the order of His Majesty the King and the logistical support of His Majesty the King, we can only stay in the camp and wait for the situation to change. "

The royal family proposed harsh peace conditions, and they were not aiming for peace talks.

Those conditions are to make the alchemists no longer expect the help of the people of East Elba, the high-level alchemists will not go to the Holy Grail City to be punished by themselves, and the parliaments at all levels will not be dissolved.

Rudolf sighed: "It's still the destruction of power... But, has no one in the court received the detailed information of the wolf tide? Too many people died. This is because Corvinus did not leave the ancestral mountain. The wolf tide was a tentative attack. If Corvinus left the ancestral mountain, if the evil god left the southern continent, then everything would be too late. More people in Sielba would die, countless people."

Rodolf's voice became lower and lower as he spoke. This matter was not something that Marquis Paru could solve. The Marquis's opinion could not change the attitude of the royal family, and even the attitudes of those dukes could not change this terrible situation.

"Marquis Paru, I'm going to the Vulture Mountains. I'll warn the warlike Duke of Ram Arsinoe to keep him in line."

It took Rodolfo 5 days to fly to the Vulture Mountains.

The Vulture Mountains used to have a large population, and many people relied on forestry and animal husbandry for their livelihoods, but now there are few people here. The war between West Elba and East Elba that lasted for more than three years completely destroyed the production and life here.

Countless forests were abandoned, and people migrated to live on the plains under the mountains.

As night fell, Rodolfo quickly found the direct shooting area of ​​Sagitta.

The soil and rocks here are red, rich in iron ore, and the vegetation is sparse. It is a rare open-air iron mine in the Caucasus Mountains.

There is an airship fleet of the Constitutional Army stationed on Vulture Mountain. Several airships are taking off and landing in the camp, patrolling around, and protecting the iron mines not far away.

There are many vultures living on Bald Mountain. The existence of the airship base squeezes the living space of the vultures.

Some bored soldiers like to practice archery on the airship, shooting the flying birds coming and going, causing the number of flying birds around to drop sharply.

Rudolf quietly crossed the fleet's camp and walked to the top of the mountain. After reaching the top of the mountain, we began to wait for midnight.

After a while, a group of cavalry suddenly rushed out from the woods below the mountain.

The main flag of the cavalry is a ram flag, with a black ram head on a red background, and the sharp horns are all black.

This is the Ram Knights mentioned by Marquis Paru, who had just entered the battlefield.

Rudolf was just thinking about whether to help, but found that the strength of this group of cavalry was not strong. After seeing more than 10 airships flying into the sky, he quickly withdrew.

It seems that this is just a reconnaissance team, not the main force of the Ram Knights.

That's good, so Rudolf doesn't have to take action.

Time came to midnight, and the stars twinkled under the barrier of the air.

Only when looking at these stars, Rudolf's mood would be calm.

These stars, which were similar to those in his previous life, brought comfort to Rudolf's heart. How he hoped that this was just a parallel world.

He hoped that he had not died in his previous life and was still living his life step by step.

He hoped that he was just a passer-by in this life, a wanderer far away from his hometown, a wanderer who could not return to his hometown.

The stars in the two worlds are the same, which can be regarded as "sharing the beauty of the moon a thousand miles away".

Those memories are so long ago. Unknowingly, I have lived here for more than 6 years.

Rudolf lay on the ground, staring at the starry sky with lifeless eyes, his mind was empty, and he didn't think about anything.

I don't know when, I don't know which wind woke Rudolf up.

He stood up from the ground and prepared to complete the secret ritual.

Star stone powder flew out from Rudolf's fingertips, and 30 cm above the ground, it outlined the pattern of the six-pointed star of the Arrow.

The Arrow constellation has only four stars, two stars represent the tail feathers, one star represents the arrow shaft, and one star represents the arrow. It is a constellation with a very small star field area.

The direct shooting area of the Sagitta constellation is also very small. If you want to complete the secret ritual, you can't leave the nearby mountains.

After placing all three relics on the astrological hexagram, Rudolf began to guide the apostle power in the relics to dissipate.

The apostle power of the three relics, the primary relic level 7 lightning pulse, the secondary relic level 7 insect nest, and the secondary relic level 7 white magic light bead, slowly dissipated to the surroundings, mixed with the star stone powder, and moved along the lines of the star stone powder. Finally, the three apostle powers mixed together to form a new special energy body.

Under a certain polymerization reaction of the three apostle powers, the four stars of Sagitta suddenly flashed in the starry sky.

The four stars of Sagitta became the brightest stars nearby. Not only the airship base on the mountainside could see them, but also the Constitutional Army Command and the Knights Command, which were far away, could see the four shining stars.

In the Knights Command, Duke Arsino stood in the open space, staring at the direction of Sagitta: "What happened there?"

Soon, a staff officer came behind Duke Arsino: "My Lord! That is the star field of Sagitta in the North Sky! Someone is being promoted to a Sagitta wizard!"

There are only a few wizards who can accommodate several constellations in one wizard level.

After accommodating the characteristics of one constellation, most wizards will not risk accommodating a second constellation.

Hunting for relics is very risky, and many wizards died because of their greed.

When other apostles see a wizard embracing the characteristics of a constellation, they generally think that the wizard is being promoted.

"Promotion? Promotion to a level 7 wizard?" Duke Asino said after a pause: "Go and ask Duke Stuart! Ask him to come to my command center to discuss the unexpected appearance of a level 7 wizard."

A wizard who is being promoted is not a knight. If the alchemist has an extra level 7 wizard to help, it will be troublesome.

A marquis asked, "My Lord Duke, do you think it could be the Forge? According to the intelligence briefing, the Forge has a good relationship with the alchemists in Sielba."

Duke Arsino was also unsure, "It shouldn't be... Hasn't the Forge been active in the Eagle's Mouth Peninsula? Why did it come to the Vulture Mountains? Isn't the matter of the evil god cult enough to keep him busy?"
