Chapter 1389 1361. Take the initiative
Their ‘known friends’.
As soon as this name was mentioned, although there was no other hint, the other four kings present also pointed their impressions at one person without any deviation or hesitation.
A witcher.
The kings were just now boasting about their achievements in defeating the tidal army of men in black on Mount Soudan more than two years ago, as if they were famous in history because of that battle.
It is indeed worthy of being remembered in history, because the scale of the Battle of Sowden Mountain was unprecedented.
Both sides invested a total of more than 100,000 troops! No matter where you put it, it will be regarded as a big battle with a big name.
It has only been five hundred years since humans in the north landed on the mainland from the intersection of the celestial spheres. A few decades ago, the empire in the south was a distant country that only the most profound and knowledgeable scholars in the north knew about.
But now, both sides are trying to destroy and occupy the other side's territory, population, and everything! The contact and fighting began at a dizzying speed.
And the intensity of the fighting increased so fast that it was difficult to understand.
But even so, even though the kings personally participated in the battle that will inevitably go down in history, when they boasted about their achievements, they all knew it clearly -
The greatest achievement and most prominent reputation in that war belonged to only one person from the beginning.
A strongman who is not a wizard, but who has fought head-on and killed through the entire battlefield!
To be honest, if it was a wizard, then kings, nobles, and generals would all be able to accept it.
After all, Maribo City can still see the traces of being crushed in half.
If wizards only look at their destructive power, then no one has anything to say, and everyone can accept it.
The problem is, that's not a wizard.
Wizards need to concentrate when casting spells, and their bodies will still die from injuries such as piercing the heart, beheading, etc.
Block magic gold, experienced spell response strategies, secret sneak attacks and poisoning, or use the life of the commando to go to the mage, and use money and power to hire another powerful mage.
The balance between the king and the mages is always achieved on the premise that each can kill the other.
If a mortal king really wants to kill a king in front of a mage, it can only be done by blowing a breath.
But the power represented by the king, as well as the power belonging to the national group that he can command, can also kill any magician in the world.
So in 'Why make things so chaotic that everyone can't enjoy life? ’ Under the concept, most mages began to serve as advisors to the king’s court.
However, with the development of the times, the mages became more and more addicted to pleasure and became more dependent on the national system.
In the evolution of the times, the national system has developed more targeted combat methods such as "espionage agencies" and "special operations".
So to this day, more and more mages have transformed from consultants who can really intervene in affairs to mascots in the palace that symbolize the "stable relationship between the king and the mages group".
Because there are targeted measures, we can coexist and cooperate with peace of mind.
Even if [Pure White] Rafael is alive, Alzu will be resurrected! In the intense battlefield environment of Soden Mountain, if there were no troops surrounding him layer by layer, he would be able to cast spells with peace of mind.
How many minutes can the Archmage survive in this chaos?
Soden Mountain is now called the 'Mountain of Fourteen Mages', isn't it just because so many mages died?
But that person is not a mage, he is a demon hunter who kills the front of the battlefield!
Rain of arrows, flying spells, fire, frightened horses, poison, and even siege engines! Unpredictable dangers lurk beneath the chaos.
One second a frightened horse rushes over, and the next second the crossbow arrow fired by the crossbow may happen to pierce the frightened horse and appear directly in front of people's eyes.
What methods were not used in that war? What killing skills didn’t show up?
But he just led a small group of knights and killed them!
The absurdity of this kind of thing is self-evident. Until now, the kings' courts have never come up with a final conclusion on how to treat this demon hunter.
It stands to reason that no one would dare to say anything even if he made such great achievements on a battlefield like Soden Mountain and was crowned king on the spot. At most, it would be a stumbling block in the future.
But the key is that no one has ever seen this happen.
Each court, therefore, now does not know what standards to treat Lan En and his knights.
But there is no doubt that anyone who has been to the Soden Mountain battlefield will never doubt one thing - the unparalleled battlefield dominance of the demon hunter!
"You want to use the name and territory of Cintra to bring down Lan En of Cintra." When many kings looked at each other with complicated and unclear eyes, Miwei was still like a straight sword, pointing straight to the core. Be blunt.
"This is going to work!" Henselt wriggled his lips, as if savoring the plan. "Although I don't know how the demon hunter is so strong, he alone represents the frontal combat effectiveness of at least one division!"
"In terms of mobility and logistical pressure, he is simply more convenient than a single traveling merchant!"
On the battlefield, the so-called 'passes' and 'roads' actually restrict the movement of large-scale regiments.
If you are alone, many so-called "natural dangers" and "Xiongguan" are simply tourist routes.
The more he followed the train of thought, the brighter Henselt's small eyes, which were pinched by a slit between his cheeks, became brighter.
"And Vizmir is right. Kratz swore a blood oath to avenge Calanse and his uncle and his wife! If we really want to cross the Yaruga River and attack the other side, then he will spend all his money The entire Skellige Islands force is behind us!”
"Yes, that [Sea Boar] will definitely do this! Blood-sworn revenge is the glorious tradition of the Skellige Islands!"
"For the sake of the gods! This plan will succeed! I support Foltest, don't wait any longer! Launch a preemptive raid! Liberate Cintra and drive the men in black out of the Amel Pass!"
"Don't be so anxious." Demavi said in a low voice at this time, "Don't be too busy touching the tiger's butt. The tiger isn't dead yet, so you can figure out how to skin it!"
"Moreover, if we take the lead in making a surprise attack, we will become the aggressor and the violator. We will break the armistice agreement that we have all stamped and signed."
"I know it's normal to tear up a contract." Demavi turned around and looked around, "But that's a choice when you're sure to win and eliminate the impact. Do we have it now?"
"If we are the first to default, Nedamir's Union of Humphers will not support us. Nor will Istrad Thyssen in Kovir and Povis come to our aid."
"I don't know what the attitude of King Essein of Hydaris is now, but our craftsmen's guild, merchants and nobles will definitely not support a war that we proactively provoke. The most important thing is the wizards! The wizards also Will definitely object!"
"It's true." Vizmir touched the wrinkles on his chin that had become saggy due to aging. "They will not support military operations against the south bank of the Yaruga River. Because that armistice agreement is The masterpiece of Wilgefortz of Logoeven.”
"As we all know, Vilgefortz's plan is to gradually turn the truce into a long-lasting peace, and he will not support the war. As for the Wizarding Council?"
Having said this, Vizmir smiled without saying anything.
"They only followed Wei Gefutzi's lead. After the Battle of Sodden Mountain, his prestige in the wizarding society was at its peak. No matter what other wizards think, he is already the number one."
"The Wizards' Guild, that is, the Association of Talents and Skills." Miwe frowned and asked, "I don't know much about it, but Widget Fortz is thirty years old? He's less than fifty, right? Just let him be a young boy. Are you in charge?"
Fifty years old is really too young among wizards.
"Despite his young age, his methods are quite tough." Vizmir explained, "Not to mention political operations, there are very few wizards who can surpass him in magic. His magic level is on the same level as Philippa. of."
Miwe frowned. Even though she had little contact with the warlock community, Philippa Earhart's reputation was still well known.
She is a well-known and powerful figure among sorceresses, and is the first among the active sorceresses on the market today.
Coupled with the other party's political skills and the fact that she has Redania, the oldest northern country, Ms. Owl's name is undoubtedly the most important among the warlocks.
Apart from the two old wizards left over from the 'ancient times' and some special people, Philippa Earhart's magical attainments are among the most powerful.
But she was close to two hundred years old at least, and that Wilgefortz was indeed incredibly talented.
"But he is still not the strongest wizard. It can even be said that he is far from it." Mi Wei asked calmly.
"Of course." Vizmir admitted bluntly and continued to explain, "The power of Hen Gdeimidis and Tishaya de Veris is unmatched."
"But on the one hand, Tissaya only took up her duties and joined the Association of Talents and Skills a few years ago, and the current political situation is far different from the era when she was active."
"The powerful sorceress who has been teaching and educating people on Xianide Island for hundreds of years is just beginning to figure out her way around. She actually doesn't speak out or participate in decision-making in the wizarding society because in her era, they still followed the principle of 'doing more and doing less'. Speak' principle."
"On the other hand, Hen Gedimitis didn't take care of things much before, and recently he started to pay close attention to the educational issues of Ban Ade College."
Having said this, Vizmir sighed sadly.
"The old man had hidden it deeply before, and only a small number of wizards knew about his heart disease. After Dijkstra knew that he had recovered from his illness, he rummaged through Redania's library and found out about it in a four-part document. I saw this matter mentioned in documents from more than a hundred years ago.”
