The sarcophagus was personally escorted by Lord Krupps to the Pasha Magic Tower. As the "guardian", Camilla followed the team from the beginning to the end as soon as they entered the city, and completed the handover task with a serious expression.
After the sarcophagus was pushed into the "prison" that had been prepared in advance, Camilla finally relaxed a little. She politely greeted all the dragons that came to her. Finally, she turned to look at Naifei.
"Mom!"
Naifei took two steps forward and hugged her mother with open arms. Only then did she realize that she was almost the same height as her mother …
"Why did you come back so suddenly? You didn't say anything before … "
Camilla hugged her daughter with a face full of smiles. Her surprise was evident on her face.
She wore an elegant blue robe and her beautiful face seemed to be frozen in time. In the past two years, Camilla did not have a single wrinkle. Instead, her temperament became more and more stable because she studied the inheritance of Arcanist Cadgar.
She received the news of "accepting an important target" three days ago. In these three days, Camilla was unusually busy and had made comprehensive preparations. Now, it could be said that she had completed the task without any mistakes. But in the original notice, no one mentioned that her daughter from Lachiman would come back with them.
Naifei had already prepared an excuse for this. She explained, "Brother Roddy and the Dragons are dealing with a very troublesome guy. I was in Lachiman and did not know the specific situation. But after I heard that they won the fight and wanted to escort this' prisoner of war 'back. Plus, he needed my help during the escort, so I came back with him!"
Her words cleverly skipped the matter of her following Roddy to Hovela City. After all, if her mother knew that she dared to go to such a dangerous place, she would definitely reprimand her.
Camilla did not think much at this time. She only looked at her daughter with red eyes and said, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
After not seeing her for two years, her daughter had obviously experienced a lot. Now, her smile was confident but still a little mischievous. Camilla could not help but smile. She was much more satisfied with Roddy's original arrangement.
But thinking of the guy who had not returned, she hesitated for a few seconds and asked, "Then … will he come to Elsen City?"
"Brother Roddy?" Naifei seemed to have sensed the intention behind her mother's words. She rolled her eyes and replied, "He is fighting in another country. It seems that he will need some time to return to the Kingdom of Karen after taking down the palace …"
Camilla's eyebrows drooped, and her hopeful eyes dimmed a little. However, the mother suddenly narrowed her eyes and stared at Naifei. "Finish what you want to say."
Naifei couldn't help but laugh. "Mom, how did you know I wasn't finished?"
"When I saw you rolling your eyes, I knew that you must be hiding something. I haven't seen you for two years, and you've really grown. You even dare to joke with me now?"
As Camilla spoke, she stretched out her hand and pinched Naifei's cheeks. Naifei quickly begged for mercy, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you … Lord Krupps and the others value this' prisoner of war 'very much. He said that this is the core of the future cooperation between the Karon Kingdom and the dragon race. Brother Rody will definitely stay here for a long time!
"You know a lot!"
Camilla loosened her grip, but the corners of her mouth curled up again. "Are you hungry? Do you want to go eat something? "
"I'm not hungry! I still want to see that 'prisoner of war'. I don't know why she was escorted here by so many Dragons even though she's so beautiful. "
When the sarcophagus was transported, Cazvara was completely sealed, so Camilla didn't pay attention to what the guy inside looked like. Now hearing Naifei's words, she blinked and asked, "What do you mean? Who is this prisoner of war? "
"I'm not sure. I just heard from Lord Crupus that it's very important."
Camilla also saw Cazvara's face before, and she had the same doubt in her heart. Before she could answer, Lord Crupus had already handed over a thick document.
"This is …"
"Prime Minister Roddy asked me to hand over the contents of our plan to you in person in order to keep it a secret. In fact, we need Arcanist Camilla's assistance in creating the Half Plane in the Pasha Magic Tower, and part of the transformation inside … The specifics are all written in here. "
Camilla took the heavy paper and was surprised to find that there was a lot of words and blueprints on it. She glanced at it and felt that the content was too unbelievable. She asked, "Lord Crupus, this … prisoner of war, what kind of person is he? You need to use this method … I'm sorry, I think this is a little ridiculous …"
"It is indeed ridiculous, but in order to achieve our goal, we are willing to try. After all, this is one of the few opportunities for us to change our passive situation. "
When Crupus heard Camilla's question, he knew that she still did not understand Cazvara's identity, so he explained, "A week ago, we had a face-to-face battle with the Demon Lord Cazvara's clone. The number of Dragons that died in battle was more than three digits, and the number of casualties in Dister City exceeded thirty thousand. A few of us old fellows almost died on the battlefield … The elders also suffered heavy losses."
Camilla's scalp went numb, and Naiffy, who was beside her, also opened her mouth slightly. The news she heard did not involve the Dragons' losses, but she did not expect the truth to be so shocking.
"Then Roddy, he-"
"The Dragons can still maintain stability now, basically thanks to Prime Minister Roddy's original decision. Otherwise, the only thing we can do now is to wait for the demons to invade the entire continent and fight to the death."
Crupus said as he raised his chin, "This is the Demon Lord, it was Prime Minister Roddy who crippled it and then captured it. Whether we can make a comeback in this situation depends on whether the next plan can be implemented successfully. "
It took Camilla a long time to realize who the guy she had just sent to prison was.
Thinking that Roddy would complete the next task with her in Elsen City, Camilla could not help but take a deep breath. Holding the stack of papers, she nodded vigorously, "I understand. I will complete the task seriously, Lord Crupus."
***
Three days later, Dister City's "Artifact Revival Celebration Ceremony" kicked off.
In nearly ten days, Roddy had already let the people inside and outside of the city know what happened in Eiseka. But this slave society, compared to the complicated Kingdom of Karen, was obviously "simpler".
The main forces of the eleven First Oblatums' families were almost completely annihilated, causing those fellows who had the qualifications to challenge to hesitate. And when the transport aircrafts landed again and again, and the dragons patrolled the skies, these fellows didn't even cause a splash in the end. They didn't even dare to rebel, so they gave up.
As for the people at the bottom of the hierarchy and the slaves who were not even "people", they ate and drank as they pleased, no one cared about what happened.
Such a scene also made Roddy feel relieved. He had long since adapted to the current social environment and atmosphere of the current era. He came to Eiseka not to help them with the industrial revolution. He only remembered the saying, "The more ignorant the people, the stronger the faith." So he only planned to cultivate this place into the largest "charging area" of "Power of Will."
Of course, supporting a puppet regime, using this as a means of seesaw and surveillance against Lessiman was also necessary. Roddy did not think that Lessiman's mages were all idiots. In fact, what he was most worried about was that these mages would be the first to master the long-distance navigation technology, and begin to occupy the resources that the Kingdom of Karen could obtain.
The world was only so big, and Roddy did not intend to give it away.
