The mage arrives

This time, it was rare for Gordon to meet Rob Antello in the bedroom instead of the study.

The lord was half lying on his big bed, covered with a thin down blanket.The thin crow's feet in the corners of his eyes showed a trace of tiredness, and his face was also a little pale, which was completely different from his usual hale and hearty appearance.

Ms. Bishop stood by the bed with her sword in hand, and glanced at the man on the bed from time to time, her concern was palpable.This female warrior, whose swordsmanship and willpower are enough to impress the most stubborn men, is now like a little girl who has fallen in love for the first time and is worried about her lover.

Sure enough, when it comes to the means of picking up girls, neither he nor Donne is a match for the Grand Duke of Scepter.

"You're here, Gordon." Rob Antello looked up at Gordon, his voice a little hoarse, "Oh, the fifth ring... After a long and difficult night, I can still meet such a surprise .You guys are improving so fast in arcane arts, it's really unprecedented."

He said "surprise" in his mouth, but the expression on the Lord Lord's face was actually not too moved, as if he was used to this kind of thing.

Gordon didn't know what the other person meant by "a long, hard night".If the lord doesn't say anything, he won't ask.Some things, it's better not to know.

"My lord, come to me today, what's the matter?"

Rob Antello winked at his female guard.The latter understood immediately, opened the drawer of the bedside table, took out a stack of documents and handed them to Gordon.

"Sit down anywhere and finish reading."

Gordon nodded, found a single chair to sit down, and began to concentrate on dealing with those long speeches.

First of all, the Grand Duke had discussed with him about establishing a public school.The site selection has been completed, and the Grand Duke is planning to use Clear Water City, Gaoyan City, and Changqiao Port, the three largest cities in the Far Frost Province.Each build a school that can accommodate [-] students.The building materials have also been prepared, but the actual start of construction will have to wait until the beginning of spring.Only when the spring plowing is over can enough labor force be recruited.

In addition, the artisans recruited by Duke Robert have improved and put Gordon's movable type printing into practical use.The first batch of "Common Language Basic Teaching" printed a few days ago has come out, and the cost of each book is 50 silver coins.This price has been greatly lower than that of handwritten books with the same number of words, but it is not enough, and it is beyond the affordability of most commoner families.

However, with the expansion of printing scale and further improvement of technology, there is still a lot of room for cost reduction.

Development education.Dissemination of knowledge requires long-term investment, and results cannot be seen in a short period of time.Therefore, it is almost impossible to obtain some benefits from the God of Knowledge, Ioun, with this progress.

Gordon turned the page back and found a list of personnel.

first name.It was "Gordon Freeman" impressively, and a number eight and a spell book burning with arcane flames were printed on the back.

"This list was just made the day before yesterday. I'm afraid the intelligence personnel would not have expected it. You have been promoted to one level in a short period of time. I will find someone to change the 'eight' to 'nine' later." Rob Antello said.

Gordon understood.The number represents one's own level, and the spell book represents one's occupation.

He nodded and continued to read.

Lenas Reinhardt, level eleven, a sword that shines with holy light.

Jude Frey, grade eleven.A hand holding a holy symbol.

Vladimir Antonov, eleventh level, with a two-handed sword.

Dai Lite Kading, tenth grade.One-handed sword and shield.

……

Gordon has already guessed the purpose of this list with grades and occupations behind the names.

"These people are all the people who will act next time."

"Yes."

Both Renas and Jude are elite combatants stationed in Clearwater City by the Temple of Dawn.And Vladimir Antonov is not simple.This warrior who is good at two-handed swords is well-known in Gaoyan City.In order to destroy the stronghold of the Sansheng Baptist Church in Yuanshuang Province and prevent the opponent from using the Sin Orb's conspiracy, the Temple of Dawn specially dispatched him from Gaoyan City.

In addition to these three, the Temple of Dawn also provided three priests with the title of "Morning Light".

There are also six Golden Dragon Sword Guards on the list, who are the elite guards sent by the Platinum Temple, and each of them is a powerful fighter who has reached at least level ten.

In the end, Grand Duke Rob Antello also selected three well-trained mages from his mage group to join the team.One of them was named Ruth Dumic.

Gao registered that he was the nephew of Yolande Dumic, the head of the mage group.Because Gordon snatched the good job of the Grand Duke's magic consultant from him, the two had a little trouble.However, this young man's character is not bad, so it shouldn't affect this mission.Otherwise, with the wisdom of the lord of the scepter, he would not cooperate with Gordon exclusively.

Such a small team that brings together the elite forces of the three parties has an astonishing combat effectiveness.However, they alone do not seem to be enough to destroy the nest of the Three Holy Baptist Church.

Gordon articulated his doubts, and the lord nodded and said, "You are right, this team alone is impossible to destroy the Sansheng Baptist Church stronghold. The enemy wants to use the three Sin Orbs to do great things , will definitely deploy a large number of defense forces. So your task is not to wipe out the enemy, but to explore the way."

A sickly blush suddenly appeared on the Grand Duke's face, and he coughed violently.Ms. Bishop immediately sat in front of him and gently massaged his chest.

It took a long time for the Grand Duke to recover.

"It's really a decayed and old body..." Grand Duke Antaello laughed at himself, and continued the topic just now, "When you leave, Cardinal Ruduo will give you a rainbow crystal."

That's it!

Gordon understood.

Rainbow crystals are a specialty of the Temple of Dawn. There are eight types in total, namely red, orange, red, green, blue, blue, purple, and colorful.This wonderful magic gem is full of Ms. Meridia's divine power and can be made into a one-time magic item.It allows users to conveniently and quickly carry out transmissions of different scales and distances.

Gordon has had two experiences with this crystal.The first time was in the Sun Elf Castle.In order to fight Ke Yan, Gordon summoned Reinas.The second time was last night's fight.Facing Malik Baratheon's sharp attack, Gordon sent reinforcements from the temple in time, thus turning the tide of the battle in one fell swoop and winning.

It is precisely because of the existence of such a very convenient magic item that the actions of the Temple of Dawn are usually based on surprise attacks.First send out elite small troops to arrive at the designated place without anyone noticing, and then use the rainbow crystal to summon the main force to annihilate the unexpected enemies in one fell swoop.

This time, we will still adopt this simple and effective method to deal with Sansheng Baptist Church.Compared with sending thousands of troops to encircle and suppress with great fanfare, the success rate of doing so will undoubtedly be much higher.It is also not easy for the enemy to get wind of it, so prepare in advance or simply run away.

As long as this team can successfully reach the hidden stronghold of the Sansheng Baptist Church, and then use the rainbow crystal to open the portal, then the combined forces of the empire and the three churches, which have long been waiting, will immediately kill them.

A very feasible plan.And Gordon is the key to the plan - he will be responsible for keeping and using the rainbow crystal.

After learning about the specific implementation steps of the plan, Gordon continued to look through the documents.

On the next page of the personnel list is a military-level map with high precision, and officers below the captain are not qualified to touch it.

The red solid line departs from Clearwater City, heading northeast, to the foot of the Cold Mist Mountains, then turns into a dotted line, heading north all the way, and finally stops at the easternmost section of the Anduin Great Wall.

Gordon had learned some cartography, and he knew that the Freytons used to mark the above-ground routes with solid lines, and the underground routes with dotted lines.

"Drilling again?"

Gordon frowned.

Thinking about his several adventures so far, whether it was the Sun Elf Castle or the Danzig Ruins, he spent quite a long time in the dark and dark underground.

Game makers know that they need to design rich and varied scenes to improve the fun of the game and reduce the aesthetic fatigue of players.Therefore, in "Ancient Era", after the player kills the zombies in the gloomy dungeon until he vomits, his next mission is likely to be an adventure on a tropical island with blue sky and blue waves.

But reality cannot be as caring as a game designer.If you should drill a hole to eat ashes, you have to drill a hole to eat ashes...

Gordon looked again at the place where the solid line disappeared at the foot of the Cold Mist Mountains, and found a strange arch drawn there, and the word "Amya" was marked there.

"Amiya?"

"That's the elf language, the meaning of wisteria. You have to use the underground city road opened by the dark elves to reach your destination."

"Dark elves..." Gordon rolled his eyes.

Dark elves, also known as drow elves.The humans called it the black donkey's ears, and the elves denounced them as traitors.Gordon didn't want to deal with these spider-worshiping lunatics.

Grand Duke Rob smiled and said, "Don't worry, that city has been abandoned for a long time, so there should be no danger. Moreover, for men, sexy and enchanting dark elf women should be very attractive. I have met them before. A dark elf priestess... ouch..."

The lord let out a very unmannered cry of pain.Ms. Bishop withdrew her hand without a trace.It seems that even the lord of the scepter can't bear the pinch of a high-ranking warrior.

Women will be jealous.

Gordon pretended not to see this scene.

Although the Grand Duke said that Emiya has been abandoned and will not encounter too many dangers.But what are dark elves?They are a group of people who are obsessed with dark magic, worship the spider goddess, and have crazy genes buried in their bones.Gordon would wager that even if the underground city were empty, there would be dangers left by many, many irresponsible city dwellers.
