"Master … Dean?"
At this moment, the other generals also came to their senses and were instantly stunned.
The colonel bowed his head: "There's no mistake. The name written on it is' Master Dean '. The new invention' steam gun 'was donated to us by him."
The generals were stunned. The blonde middle-aged man took a deep breath: "Dean is the traitor of the Temple that we have captured from the barbarians? How is it possible? We have investigated that person's information. Isn't he sixteen or seventeen years old? He has just become a senior architect. How could he be promoted to 'master' in such a short period of time? "
"If this legendary military divine art called 'steam gun' was really created by him, then it's reasonable for the Shrine to promote him to be a master, but …" Another man slowly calmed down and said thoughtfully.
The white-bearded old man sighed: "Although the Temple has always protected its own image but the internal laws are strict. If Dean's invention is forced to be a legendary item then I'm afraid the other masters won't be convinced. It would be a huge loss. I'm afraid that the steam gun is really a legendary weapon. It would be great if it could help the situation in the front line …"
The doubts in the bottom of their hearts dissipated as they heard the old man's words. One of them said: "If it really is a legendary item then the little guy named Dean doesn't seem like a traitor since he donated it to us for free. After all, the price of a legendary item is millions of gold coins. Ten lifetimes of luxury wouldn't be enough to spend it all. Even if he carries a stigma, he can be sent to the inner wall to live and never return to the outer wall."
"Yes, he is too stupid if he is going to use a free donation to wash away the suspicion."
"It seems that we have to investigate this person. Although the architects of the Temple aren't as noble as people think but there are many masters who are worthy of admiration. If this person is wronged then we will be in trouble."
"That's right. We've offended the Temple quite a lot this time. It's all because of those damned bastards. They didn't even clarify the situation before publishing the news. If it turns out to be a misunderstanding now, our military will lose all face!"
Everyone looked at each other and felt that this matter was rather thorny.
Just then —
"Report!" A guard came to the side of the colonel. He saluted the generals and said: "Generals, Master Skagen of the Temple has come to see General Lorenzo."
"Master Skagen? He actually came in person? "
"Are you here to denounce me?"
The generals looked at each other.
The white-bearded old man's face was gloomy as he said to the guard, "Quickly invite him over."
"Yes," the guard answered and ran off.
After a while, Skagen came to the hall under the guidance of the guards.
The white-bearded old man was already waiting in front of the sand table. He slowly stepped forward as he saw Skagen's figure. It seemed that he deliberately slowed down the angle of the sand table. There was a big smile on his face: "Master, I haven't seen you for a long time. How come you have the time to come here today?"
Skagen calmly glanced at the generals behind him: "I won't delay too much of your time. I have sent a letter to the military and I believe that your people have already passed it to you. I have come here in person on behalf of the Temple and also on behalf of the new master of the Temple. Mr. Dean. I have come to tell you two things."
Lorenzo's face slightly changed but he still maintained a smile on his face: "Master is really as swift as the rumors say. We just learned that Dean has been appointed as a master. We haven't had the time to congratulate him. I don't know what you want to talk about."
Skagen calmly said: "First, we want to publish the news in the newspaper. We want to announce that master Dean has donated the new invention for free. We need justice!"
"Master Dean has generously donated the legendary item for free. Even if Master Dean didn't say it, we would have announced it in the newspaper. Lorenzo frowned. "It's just that the battlefield ahead is unpredictable. Although it's only a small headline position, isn't it a bit disrespectful to do so?"
Skagen's mouth curved into a cold arc: "Is it? Is it possible that the legendary item we donated to you for free has nothing to do with the war? Although you haven't seen the legendary invention but the Temple of Elements has provided military inventions from one star to five stars. Have we ever disappointed the military? "
Lorenzo's complexion changed. If he didn't agree, it would be the same as publicly slapping the Temple's face. If he agreed, then he would have to lick back the spit he had spat on Lin Ming's body!
"Master, I think we have to discuss this matter …"
Skagen frowned: "General just said that the situation of the war is changing rapidly. Shouldn't we put all our energy into the war strategy?"
Lorenzo's face sank: "Alright, I can agree to this. What about the second thing?"
Skagen continued: "The second thing is very simple. Master Dean insists on going to the front line. I hope you can send the most elite soldiers to protect him. The Temple doesn't want to see a master fall in this place. I believe that you also don't want to see a genius who is less than 18 years old who has produced two legendary inventions die. It would be a loss for the entire giant wall!"
Lorenzo was startled.
The generals who were standing behind him were also startled.
They were angry when they saw Skagen's domineering appearance. But at this moment they doubted their ears.
What was the front line?
Even the generals weren't willing to go there!
Especially in the current precarious situation. If the golden wall was captured by the barbarians then the generals would find it difficult to escape death. The strength of an individual was as small as a grain of sand in the middle of thousands of soldiers.
But this young man who had just received the title actually took the initiative to go to the front line? Why did he insist?
Lorenzo came back to his senses: "Master Skagen, are you right? Master Dean wants to go to the front line? Why don't you stop him? The front line is too dangerous. Even if we send the most elite soldiers we wouldn't be able to ensure the safety of a person. It's too dangerous! And to tell you the truth, we can't guarantee that the barbarians won't be able to break through the golden wall in the next moment. Once the golden wall falls, we can only rely on the blessing of the goddess of luck to return alive! "
Skagen's face sank: "We will stop him if we can. But he still wants to go. Moreover you don't know that Dean is not only a rare genius but he also passed the Knight's Hall test. Once he passes the test he will become a real knight! He has the spirit of a knight. We wanted to send him to the inner wall so that he wouldn't return to the outer wall! "
Skagen's fingers slightly clenched in his sleeves. His emotions fluctuated as he said: "But he didn't want to escape! In order to reduce the casualties of your soldiers, so that your money can be used on the battlefield, and to win this war, he gave up the fortune of selling this Legendary Divine Art and offered to donate it to your army for free!! "
"For the sake of his knight's glory, he insisted on going to the battlefield himself. He used to be a hunter, but not long after, he was imprisoned. Now that he saw that the frontline was in danger and that there were heavy casualties, he decided to go to the battlefield himself in order to do his part!!"
"Perhaps you would think that he wanted to save his reputation and prove that he didn't collude with the barbarians."
"But, generals, he is already a master of magic! Moreover he is a master who has produced two legendary inventions! He could have taken advantage of the situation and sold the legendary invention to the military at a sky-high price. He could have made endless wealth! "
"But he didn't do that!"
"He could have entered the inner wall with huge wealth and enjoy a superior life and glory! But he gave up! He abandoned his glory and rushed to the battlefield! He rushed to the battlefield where he could die at any time! "
