Chapter 533 Another Order
Seeing that the inviter was signed Ember Warlock, Lin Li couldn't help but frown slightly and asked the magician who brought the letter: "Where is the person who sent the letter?" He knew the invitation just based on the magic ink used on the letter paper. The letter cannot be fake, but the content in the letter is too simple. It only contains the time, location and signature.
Hearing Lin Li ask about the person who delivered the letter, the magician showed an expression on his face trying to hold back a smile, and said with a little difficulty: "Mr. President, I originally wanted the person who delivered the letter to come in and wait, but the old man who delivered the letter didn't Said... said that the fields at home are still waiting to be cleared, so we won't waste more time here. By the way, he also asked for ten gold coins, saying that it was the reward for delivering the letter."
"Oh, did you give it?" Lin Li also asked a little funny.
It was well known in the Qingfeng Plain that Ash Warlock lived in seclusion in the small town of Gran, but Lin Li did not expect that Ash Warlock would actually let an ordinary farmer deliver the message.
"Yes. I originally said I would give him more, but he refused. He told me how much work he would get and how much he would be paid. He just sent a letter and paid for the round trip." It wasn't that the young magician was stupid. You can also feel the magic fluctuations emanating from the crumpled letter paper, and naturally you can imagine that the origin of this letter is not simple.
"Well, okay, you go down first." Lin Li put the invitation letter away and waved for the magician to leave.
Regarding the invitation from Ash Warlock, although the invitation letter did not mention any substantial content, Lin Li could still guess a little bit. It is said that this is also a tradition in the Qingfeng Plain. Every three years, the Ash Warlock will send an invitation letter to the leaders of the most powerful forces in the Qingfeng Plain, inviting these leaders to the town of Gran. .
Although the invitation letter was written so simply, it looked like a joke. However, on this windy plain, this simple invitation letter was like the will of the gods. No one dared to despise it in the slightest. At the same time, in the eyes of most people, this seemingly ordinary invitation letter is also a symbol of status, which means that oneself and one's power have truly stood at the top of the Qingfeng Plain.
This is no exaggeration at all. The Ash Warlock Roland, who has lived in seclusion in the small town of Gran since the Dark Ages, left too many appalling deeds and legends in the Breeze Plains. And that incident more than fifty years ago was nothing more than It's just an insignificant thing among many deeds.
Hundreds of years ago, the Scourge Knight Rodhart led his Death Knights to sweep across the Breeze Plains, bringing great disaster to the Breeze Plains. Strong cities were turned into ruins under the impact of the death knights, and legendary strong men with great reputations fell under Rodhart's eternal freezing blade.
At that time, in order to speed up the harvesting of souls, Rodhart split his nearly a thousand death knights into two, one of which he personally led, while the other went straight into the northern part of the Breeze Plains. However, Rodhart did not expect that this would be the most wrong decision in his life besides choosing to become a Scourge Knight.
Although the more than 500 death knights heading north were not led by Rodhart personally, they still had enough strength to surround and kill more than a dozen legendary strong men. They were not even a little stronger than the Griffin Knights of the Kingdom of France. However, even with such a powerful team, they suddenly disappeared outside the town of Gran. At that time, the residents of the town did not even know that they had gone through a circle between life and death.
But when Rodhart sensed the disappearance of the team and came to the outside of Gran Town in a fierce manner, he only stayed for a moment, and then fled back to the south of the Breeze Plains without looking back, as if he was frightened. Until he was purified by Prophet Velen, Rodhart never showed any intention of going north. This is also the reason why Qingfeng Plain finally retained a trace of vitality in the disaster.
It's a pity that Ash Warlock has no intention of becoming the patron saint of the Breeze Plains. He just doesn't want anyone to disturb his peaceful life. Otherwise, I'm afraid it won't be the turn of Velen, the prophet of the Temple of Light, to purify Rodhart.
Another thing that is widely spread in the Qingfeng Plain is also recorded in history. At the end of the Dark Ages, the most chaotic period in the entire Anriel world, the resistance alliance had long coveted Qingfeng due to the collapse of their interests. The orcs of the fertile land of the plains once organized a large army with the intention of taking the Breeze Plains as their own.
The orc army did not have strict military discipline, not to mention that at that time they believed that they had suffered a loss in the distribution of benefits from the Resistance Alliance, and it was even more impossible for them to commit no crime against human civilians. There was only a piece of ruins left, and its ferocity was no less brutal than that of the Death Knights.
However, when the orc army came to the town of Gran, the Ash Warlock in black robes appeared in front of thousands of troops. With just a cold and low "scroll", the boundless orc army was like a tide, and in the blink of an eye, They retreated completely, leaving only flags and weapons everywhere and countless trampled corpses.
It was this incident that made the people on Qingfeng Plain know that such a terrifying and powerful man lived in seclusion in that inconspicuous northern town. No one knows the age of Ember Warlock, and no one knows how long he has been living in seclusion in Gran Town. They only know that he has been living in the dilapidated tower in Gran Town since the dark ages.
And people were surprised to find that even in the dark ages, this small town of Gran was like a paradise, completely unaffected by any turmoil on the breeze plains. Even the high elves, who were extremely powerful in the dark ages, seemed to strictly abide by a certain agreement and never set foot in Gran Town.
You must know that during the Dark Ages, the man who ruled the Kingdom of Fran and the Breeze Plains was the notorious lord Osric. Even the terrifying Endless Abyss was conquered by the magic army led by Osric. The ancient demon god Barak, who was said to be the most powerful, fell in the hands of Osric, but this small town of Gran is still like the Breeze Plain. A forbidden area on the top.
Many people believe that Ash Warlock is likely to know Osric, and there must be an unknown agreement between the two. However, Lin Li heard another unbelievable statement from Angelano. Angelano was the first to follow Osric and was once known as one of the three butcher knives in Osric's hands. He naturally knew more about Osric than others.
"No one knows what Ash Warlock did. They just waved his hand when they saw him. Thousands of elite warriors of the Magic Legion all lost their lives at once. Their appearance was that they were aging rapidly, decaying and disintegrating. Because of the ashes, even through the crystal ball, I can feel a strange force, as if it is trying to grab my soul." Angelano still couldn't help but his voice trembled when he mentioned this memory now: "Since then, Osric never mentioned the name of the Ember Warlock again, as if he had completely forgotten the matter, and spent all his energy on the construction of the Eternal Forge."
If this matter were told by others, Lin Li would probably not be able to believe it. Osric was the proud disciple of the Immortal King. In the dark ages, he was known to be as strong as the High Elf Queen. And what kind of strength is the magic legion of the high elves? It once swept across the endless abyss, allowing countless powerful abyss demons to flee.
However, the Ash Warlock turned thousands of magic legion warriors into ashes with a wave of his hand, making even the arrogant Lord Osric lose his desire for revenge. What a powerful force this was. Lin Li couldn't imagine what level the Ash Warlock's strength had reached, but he was probably no worse than the three arbiters of the Supreme Council.
It is precisely with such tyrannical strength that Ash Warlock Roland's status in Qingfeng Plain can be said to be above all forces, just like a god overlooking all living beings in Qingfeng Plain.
The Dark Ages ended more than 1,300 years ago. After the initial war period when various countries competed for territory, Anriel Continent has been at peace for nearly a thousand years. However, Qingfeng Plain is an exception. Although it nominally belongs to the Kingdom of France, the Royal Family of France has very little control over it.
Since there has never been a real controller, even though the war has ended for nearly a thousand years, Qingfeng Plain has always been in a turbulent situation. In this land, various forces, large and small, are complicated, and various disputes occur every moment. Therefore, Qingfeng Plain is also known as a place of chaos among outsiders.
But chaos returns to chaos, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net Although it is called a place of chaos, this place of chaos also has a chaotic order, and the person who maintains this order is the Ash Warlock Roland. Only he, who is above all the forces in Qingfeng Plain, has the qualifications and ability to formulate and maintain an order that no one dares to violate.
As for the Ash Warlock Roland, who lives in seclusion in the small town of Gran, why he still intervenes in the disputes between forces in Qingfeng Plain, I am afraid only he knows. Maybe it's because he lives in Qingfeng Plain and doesn't want those disputes to affect his peaceful life, or maybe it's just because he's bored.
In short, I don’t know since when, I got this three-year invitation. Every three years, Ash Warlock Roland will send an invitation letter written on cheap letter paper to the leader of the strongest force in the Breeze Plains, inviting them to gather at the dilapidated tower in the town of Gran. As for the content of the party, except for the leaders of the major forces who attended the party, outsiders had no way of knowing. Everyone only knows that after every gathering, the power territory of Qingfeng Plain is fixed, and those battles that were originally intensifying will soon disappear.
This is the order of the Breeze Plains, this chaotic place. Under the maintenance of the Ash Warlock for many years, no one dared to break this order.
