Caltia Hills, Roccor Castle.
How could a small viscount have such a sturdy and luxurious castle?
Hence, from the beginning of its construction, Roccor Castle wasn't just a defensive fortress. Instead, it was more inclined to be a semi-manor for the nobles.
The main body of the castle covered an area of 30 acres, and the thin outer wall of the castle was only three meters tall. For the sake of cleanliness and beauty, there were no towers or blockhouses. Instead, there were exquisite artistic statues and busts of beautiful women.
The only thing that could stop the enemy was the outer wall. It could only allow two people to pass by, and there was no room for any larger war equipment.
Such a castle's defense system could be used to deal with some roaming bandits and bandits, but it was a little inadequate to deal with the elite troops sent by another lord.
To be honest, if not for the number of elite acolytes from the Salubo family stationed here, Roccor Castle would have fallen seven days ago.
However, ever since Viscount Tanner's scouts discovered the presence of Magi in the enemy's camp, the entire castle was in a state of panic, and it was difficult to continue. Even the elite acolytes from the Salubo family did not dare to step out of the castle. They could only throw a few fireballs at the enemy's attacking troops from the walls every day.
The strength of Magi was well known!
Not to mention the ordinary soldiers and citizens, even the usually arrogant elite acolytes felt uneasy when they heard the news. The two quasi Magi and six high-ranking acolytes gathered together to discuss not how to defend against the enemy's attack, but how to escape in time if the enemy Magi could not hold back and attacked.
As for confronting the Magi head-on? Sorry, the thought never crossed their minds!
However, they were glad that the Magi from the family had arrived before Roccor Castle fell.
Cogan and Grim's four-wheeled carriage entered Roccor Castle at dusk. The patrolling cavalrymen who were in charge of surrounding the castle tried to stop them, but a lava fireball made their efforts futile.
After losing eleven lives, the rest of the cavalrymen frantically fled back to the camp in the distance, and the enemy camp did not send anyone to intercept the slow carriage.
Weren't they here to force the Magi of the Salubo Family to show themselves? Now that the Magi of the Salubo Family had appeared, the level of the war was no longer a battle for territory. It had become a conflict and 'learning from each other' between the two Magi families.
Perhaps he could take this opportunity to gauge the strength of the Salubo Family's Magi!
…
The welcoming banquet for the wizard was arranged in the spacious reception hall on the first floor of the castle.
When the black, unadorned four-wheeled carriage slowly stopped in front of the castle gate, Viscount Tanner, six elite apprentices, and many relatives were waiting respectfully on both sides of the road, gazing at their life-saving straw with fervent eyes.
Although the family had informed them in advance that there would be a wizard coming, they didn't know who it was.
Therefore, when the elite wizard apprentices saw Wizard Cogan's familiar face, they immediately let out a sigh of relief and smiled. However, the tall, unfamiliar figure that followed Wizard Cogan out of the carriage made them silently whisper.
Under the wide black cloak was a young and delicate face. His black pupils were rare, and his brown hair flowed down to his shoulders. He was wearing a free and easy skintight leather suit, which made his 2 meters tall burly body look even more fit and healthy.
Grimm's gentle temperament mixed with the cold and evil aura of a Sorcerer, giving him a completely different and evil aura.
This wizard was so young!
For a moment, the faces of many young ladies and mature ladies rippled with unconcealable shock and astonishment. However, they were immediately attracted by the evil smell on Grimm's body. Their faces began to blush, and their hearts began to race. It was rare for them to reveal the shyness of a young girl.
Although Viscount Tanner was the lord of this place, he still didn't dare to show any disrespect to Wizard Cogan who represented his family. He quickly stepped forward and waved his servants away. Afterward, he personally helped Wizard Cogan down from the carriage.
"Mr. Cogan, you're finally here!" Viscount Tanner's face was filled with a flattering smile, "If you came a little later, I would have died for my family!"
Wizard Coggan sneered in annoyance.
He knew this Viscount Tanner's personality too well. Once the castle was lost, he would definitely run away with his beautiful wife and children at the first possible moment. However, this Viscount Tanner had quite a bit of history with his family, so he still had to give him some face.
Soon, Viscount Tanner noticed Grimm behind Cogan. This unfamiliar wizard made him hesitate for a moment.
"Mr. Cogan, who is this Mr. Wizard?"
"This is the new Wizard of my family, Grimm. This time, he and I will be taking care of things here!" Wizard Cogan gave a simple introduction.
As soon as he heard it was a new Wizard, Viscount Tanner couldn't help but mutter.
"Lord Cogan, could it be that Kiel, Feryl, and Buckingham are not coming?"
From his tone, it was clear that he was not very confident in this new Wizard Grimm. If Wizard Cogan didn't support him, he would have already been punished by the wizards for his disrespectful words.
"Hmph, the internal affairs of the family is not something you can interfere with." Wizard Cogan interrupted his nonsense in annoyance, "Alright, let's not talk about unnecessary things. Hurry up and disperse these people! Wizard Grimm and I still want to hear the latest news of the battle! "
After saying that, Corgan greeted the two Prospective Sorcerers of the family who were standing in the front row. As for the 4 elite wizard apprentices behind them, Cogan didn't even look at them.
The temporary meeting was held in a secret room on the second floor of the castle.
Although the castle was filled with thousands of people, only 10 people had the chance to enter this secret room.
Wizard Cogan, Wizard Grimm, 2 prospective wizards, 4 elite wizard apprentices, Viscount Tanner, and his most valued noble knight. This noble knight was also the commander of the viscount's army. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the right to enter this secret room.
"Last time, you guys reported that you found some wizards in the enemy's camp. Do you have more detailed information?" Cogan asked as soon as he sat down.
Although he was very confident in his and Grimm's ability, if there were too many wizards on the enemy's side, it would be very easy for them to make a mistake.
"Three of you." A prospective wizard with a black eye patch on his right eye replied softly, "Lan Ya and I caught a small noble in the enemy's camp. From him, we found out that the enemy had invited 3 wizards. I think one of them was Wizard Carlos from the Micaen family. As for the other 2, I don't know … "
"Carlos …" Wizard Cogan slightly frowned, tilted his head, and briefly introduced Wizard Carlos's information to Grimm.
3 wizards? This was going to be a little difficult!
… …
While the people in Roccor Castle were having a secret meeting, a small meeting was also being held in the camp far away.
It was a big, wide, cowhide tent. The decorations inside were gorgeous, and even the floor was covered with soft and comfortable carpets. Although it was in the wild, there was a delicate copper stove near the tent, and a refreshing aroma wafted out from it.
In the center of the tent sat three mysterious sorcerers of different forms, and behind each sorcerer stood two or three excited prospective sorcerer-apprentices. Below the tent, only Lord Terras and a few generals had the right to sit. The rest of the nobles and knights could only stand where they were, quietly listening to the wizards.
A young prospective wizard with a strange white dove on his shoulder stood in the middle of the tent, loudly reading the latest information he had just received.
"Grimm, male, probably less than 20 years old …"
Gasps of surprise could be heard in the hall, but this did not stop the young wizard from continuing to read.
"Time of advancement: Should be 3 months ago. Place of advancement: Magic Swamp, a level-3 resource point of the Salubo Family.
Apparently, there were 2 other young wizards who advanced together with Grimm. One of them was Wizard Mary, who had the body of a vampire, and the other was Wizard Entich, who had the body of a half-insect.
However, ever since they entered the Salubo Family's Wizard Tower in Ferdenan City, they have never appeared again. This time, it seems that only Wizard Grimm came with Wizard Cogan … "
After listening to the information brought back from the Salubo Family, the purple cloaked wizard sitting in the front seat couldn't help but sneer, "A little guy who just advanced three months ago, I'm afraid he hasn't even stabilized his power of the Will yet! If Cogan brought someone like this out, it seems like his family is really weak! "
An old wizard sitting on the left side of the purple cloaked wizard asked softly with a long staff in his hand, "Did the report say what kind of witchcraft Wizard Grimm is good at? What is his natural ability? "
The young wizard lowered his head and quickly read through the information in his hand. He shook his head and said, "Respectable Wizard Cogan, the information did not say anything about Wizard Grimm's natural ability in spells. After all, he accidentally advanced in a remote place, and our information on him is not complete! "
"Didn't you go to the resource point where he stayed to collect any information?" Wizard Cogan said with a dissatisfied look on his face.
"I'm sorry, Wizard Cogan. We have secretly sent some people to investigate. " The young quasi wizard's face stiffened, and he hurriedly explained, "But … It seems like there was an accident when the three young wizards were advancing, and it caused the Sarubo family's Wizard Anderson and all the apprentices at the resource point to die mysteriously. That's why we made such a mistake in collecting information about them! "
"Anderson, that coward, is dead?" The three Magi looked at each other, and a contemptuous smile appeared on their faces.
The experienced Wizard Coren still wanted to ask something, but he was stopped by Wizard Carlos, who was the leader of the group.
"What's there to worry about now?" Wizard Carlos sneered, "Other than that Cogan who is a bit hard to deal with, our opponent is just a new wizard. When the time comes, we can just send one person to hold him down, and the other two can attack Cogan together. Do you think they have a chance to turn the tables? "
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Although Wizard Ke Lan was a little worried, when he thought about Wizard Carlos's arrangement, it made sense. Therefore, he decided to keep his mouth shut.
The third wizard, who was shrouded in black mist, remained silent the whole time. It seemed like he was not interested in this discussion at all.
However, for some unknown reason, even Carlos, who was sitting at the head of the table, looked at the black fog with a hint of reverence and fear in his eyes.
"It's decided! Tomorrow at noon, we'll fight the enemy. We must teach those wizards from the Salubo family a good lesson! "Wizard Carlos yelled in excitement.
