At this time, in Charles II's study, Milnor was very excited. Now that Moore was kicked out of the circle by Charles II, he was the only one in the circle of power that was worthy of his attention!
Based on Milnor's understanding of Charles II, the emperor would definitely support another noble to keep him in check. But now, there was no one to stop him from dealing with Efta.
"Take over Moore's position. Go and count the nobles who can fight. Submit the battle plan as soon as possible."
Charles II was not in a good mood. After giving some instructions, he dismissed Milnor. He also knew that Moore would not speak without reason. Would he dissuade him with rumors without any source? If a count was only at this level, how could he have won so many battles?
He summoned his servant and asked someone to find out about Efta. But the feedback made him realize that Milnor was right. This Roddy actually said that he killed a hundred thousand undead army and Augustine? Would anyone really believe such a boast? Do they really think I'm stupid …
He threw away those letters and decided not to pay attention to this kind of information anymore.
Anyway, the mission had been handed over to Milnor. It would not be difficult to defeat Efta when he was so weak. He just had to wait for the good news.
*****
In the laboratory in Elsen City, the magic circle flashing with blue light was reflecting images of different regions.
For a prophecy magus, it was not difficult to explore an area that was not protected by a magic circle from a distance. Before Roddy left Elsen City for Tasman, Houdini had explored the terrain of Tasman many times. After comparison and analysis, he had marked out for Roddy which dammed lakes might cause the dam to collapse.
At that time, he did not understand the specific reason why Roddy did this. Even when he heard that Roddy wanted to deal with the undead, he never thought that Roddy could really kill a hundred thousand undead army by collapsing the dam.
After Roddy's triumphant return, he first held a celebration banquet last night. However, only Sodelor, Camilla, and Akasha were talking and celebrating. Although Houdini was thanked by Roddy several times, he knew that there was no need to steal the limelight at this time. So, he found an excuse and returned to his room. However, after thinking about it, Houdini suddenly realized that there was an indescribable change in his attitude towards Roddy. He could not find the reason. Since he could not sleep in the middle of the night, he got up and cast another spell to observe the chaos in Tasman.
The image in the magic circle was now locked on to a town.
Countless humans were hammering away and building in full swing. The humans working in the drizzle had unprecedented smiles on their faces. They couldn't stop talking about "Lord Kulka." Clearly, the "rebel army" had not only overthrown the undead's rule for a long time, but they had also broken the stability of the "lambs." The high-ranking nobles controlled by the undead had all lost their backers. While they were in chaos, Kulka took advantage of the situation and led his troops to subdue them one by one. Now, this group of "sparks" had completely set the prairie ablaze. Without a sound, they had already occupied two-thirds of Tasman's former "lambs."
Clearly, the integration of all humans was already a done deal.
The scene in the magic circle changed again. In a gloomy house, the leader of the "Awakened," Dusko, who had changed into decent clothes, sat upright and still. He was talking in a low voice to a white-haired undead in front of him. This nobleman had an old face and was wearing a blue-black robe that symbolized a count. The content of their conversation revolved around which nobleman the "Awakened" would support in the future.
Clearly, the cracks in the ruling class of the undead had begun to show. Augustine had not appeared for several days, and basically everyone had already confirmed his death. Then, this group of noblemen began to form their own groups and take sides. Due to different political views, they began to argue and fight.
The "Awakened" were originally the enemies of Tasman's noblemen, but after this chaotic political struggle began, they immediately became popular among many factions. As a leader, Dusko's earliest political goal was nothing more than to pursue freedom and overthrow Augustine's rule.
But now that Augustine was dead, the so-called pursuit of "freedom" had gradually changed …
The higher one's position, the more they wanted. The political demands of an individual would also gradually be distorted by the "collective." All the undead who joined the "Awakened" organization essentially thought of themselves as humans. Deep down, they stood on the opposite side of the original undead of Tasman.
In other words, they now began to have a new understanding: they were the true undead, and those who had been brainwashed and forgotten could not be considered undead at all.
Right now, they were still the minority. However, as time passed, the awakening process of the new undead would change and more and more undead would regain their memories. Then, the "minority" would become the "majority". But now, the existence of Dusko and the others was like a stick, stirring up chaos in the already disorderly political scene …
Houdini retracted his gaze from the magic circle. Even with his magic power, it was somewhat difficult for him to detect and analyze for a long period of time. But after this round of casting, he could clearly see the consequences of Roddy's actions.
One person, with a team of a hundred people, had relied on sufficient preparation, accurate grasp of information, and adaptability to break the limbs and behead a country that was already prepared to invade.
This kind of thing sounded like a fairy tale, but it was actually happening. Only now did Houdini understand that his previous respect for Roddy was actually just respect for the powerful magic civilization in Elsen City. But now … he was truly in awe of this terrifying leader.
Since he had decided to stand on the same side as Roddy, Houdini understood that there was no way out for him. If they wanted to move forward, they had to move forward together. Since they were cooperating, they would go further on the road to mutual benefit.
Houdini thought a lot that night. He stared at the magic circle in front of him for a long time in a daze, then flipped through the experiment records he had written in the laboratory in Elsen City. Unknowingly, he found that the sky outside the window was already bright.
