Chapter 402: Game
Far away in the village, Tigris was watching a sad tragedy happen.
There is nothing more tragic than being deceived, but what is even more tragic is that after being deceived, you are still immersed in this illusion and do not want to wake up.
"Dear Tigris, why did the guiding stone break?" A slightly anxious voice entered the Archmage's mind, and the Moon War shimmered as always.
"Dear Lilith, I don't know what happened. When I was investigating the wind of death surrounding the Arden Forest, the guiding stone was inexplicably broken." Teclis explained the cause of the matter, and he was not worried about it. exposed.
The dragon princes who dealt with the guiding stones were all sent by Imric two years ago and received the protection of the Dragon Father. The dragon prince could ensure that the dragon prince had the ability to escape Lilith's eyes and help him do some things. matter.
"Things are developing in a direction we don't want to see. The guiding stone is the key to maintaining the stability of the magical wind in the world." Lilith does not want to explain the identity of the Lady of the Lake to Tigris now, at least until the twin-tailed comet appears. Before the omen appears, this identity will not be easily explained.
"Of course, the guiding stone is Asul's treasure. What do you want me to do?" Teclis threw the question to Lilith. As a person who has shown extraordinary wisdom since childhood, as long as he wants to do something, It is often possible to succeed. It is not difficult to deceive the gods, as long as you have this idea and some matching strength.
"First help the Bretonnians to eliminate these creations of chaos. They may be the murderers who destroyed the guide stones." Lilith expressed her thoughts. Her communication with the elves was not as full of unquestionable doubts as with the Bretonnians. Authority, after all, Teclis is an important part of her plan.
Teclis, who was accustomed to obeying Lilith's words, questioned this idea and continued to watch the village besieged by the beastmen through magic distance vision without any sympathy for their plight.
"I have found the traces of the necromancer. It only takes a little time to lead him out. If we choose to help the Bretonnians now, it will cause some hidden dangers." Tigris calmly analyzed the pros and cons and continued. ,
"The broken waystone will resonate. If I support the Bretonnians, the Necromancer will notice the waystone in another place. The wind of magic in the Arden Forest is extremely chaotic now. I don't think he will miss this." An opportunity to tarnish Asul's treasure."
Lilith fell into silence, Teclis's analysis was very rational, but also cruel. She only had one choice, which was to ask the Archmage to lead people to support the village, eliminate these beastmen, and reduce some population losses. It is better to let the archmage act as expected and eliminate the necromancer to prevent the guiding stone from being threatened.
"What are your thoughts?" Lilith's tone returned to its former lightness, like a veil from the other side shrouding Teclis's heart.
Tigris knows that this is a choice, is the guiding stone important? It is indeed important, but Bretonnia's guiding stone does not have much practical significance to Assur. But Bretonnia is very important. As long as they help these knights to eliminate the beastmen, they may change their view of Assur.
But the Archmage chose the former without hesitation and responded to Lilith.
"I don't think the value of these human monkeys is more important than the guide stones. Making guide stones in the White Tower of Hoth often requires a lot of energy and resources, which are far more important than worthless farmers." Watch the village attacked by the
beastmen , Teclis narrowed his eyes slightly. This is the most important step in the plan. If Lilith insists on giving up the idea of the guiding stone to save the important religious population, then the Green Knight will not be able to show up.
Although this did not achieve the most important goal, it was enough for the Archmage to make some speculations. Lilith valued Bretonnia more than Asul's treasure.
In other words, for her, the identity of the goddess of the lake is more important.
"Destroy that necromancer, dear Teclis, just do your best." Lilith's words gradually faded away, and the goddess felt that the recent situation had become more complicated, and there were more and more variables in the plan.
Originally, they wanted to let the descendants of Caledor and the dwarves get into a melee, waiting for Malekith's return, but the actual situation developed in the opposite direction. The sudden appearance of Be'lak made the two races uninterested in paying attention to the ancient hatred.
The long-lost faith of the Dragon Father reappeared after Caledor's descendants returned to Ulthuan.
Lilith has not felt the prayers from the Caledor elves for a long time, and some altars placed in key locations are also covered in dust.
The heavily rebuilt altar of the Dragonfather took the place of other gods and was placed in the same place as Vaal by the Caledor elves. She needs Teclis to go to Lustria and figure out what happened to Imric. The great guardian not only purifies the chaotic energy flowing into the world from the two poles, but also prevents the gods' gaze from staying for too long.
Master Ma also intends to help Imric shield the gods from the eyes, which makes Lilith almost ignorant of the current situation in Caledor.
Tigris raised his head slightly to show that he understood.
"I will disperse the wind of death from here, and if there is still time, I can also help those Bretonnians resist the attack of the creation of chaos." The glimmer of light
on the Moon Staff gradually dissipated, and disappeared with silver particles. In the moonlight.
A few dragon princes standing nearby with their arms crossed watched coldly as a large number of beastmen passed by not far away. The group was on a cliff and could see everything below.
The Dragon Prince could see that the village was being attacked by beastmen. The human monkeys inside were devoured large pieces of flesh and blood by their sharp teeth. The simple leather armor could not stop the rusty iron axe, and the crude spear only pierced a hole in the beast. The bloody hole lost its controller.
As a warrior with a sense of honor, the Dragon Prince knew why this happened. Although these human monkeys were stupid, they were at least members of a civilized race.
All this happened because of the meditating Archmage Teclis.
The Archmage didn't tell anyone about his plan. He just used the instructions given by Imric to let the Dragon Prince blow up the waystone.
The Dragon Prince, who didn't understand the reason for this, couldn't help but feel even more disgusted with the Archmage. He wanted to step on his ugly face with his iron boots.
Let the Witch King go, and this time let the beastmen slaughter human monkeys wantonly. In Caledor, such people should be thrown into the volcano.
He cursed Tigris angrily in his heart, but his eyes were still looking at the village in the distance.
"Die, die, you are just the victims of a conspiracy mage."
The Dragon Prince cursed like this, unable to stop the anger in his heart.
Just when he was about to turn around and order his soldiers to get ready, a green light appeared, catching his attention.
Um?
A knight composed of a green shadow appeared from the light riding a spiritual horse, and his armor was covered with rose-like patterns.
The moment he appeared, he rescued the besieged kingdom knights and swung out the ethereal blade, taking away the life of the leading beast king.
This unusual movement attracted the attention of the Dragon Prince and also the attention of Teclis.
There was something strange in the Archmage's eyes. After observing the Green Knight for a few seconds, he already understood many things.
He spoke calmly as usual, "Let's go."
