A strange world

Chapter 589 Chapter 246. The Free City That Will Never Fall

"Our army encountered some obstacles in the north, but it was insignificant. The only one who really hurt us was the coward king who abandoned the north and fled to Middle-earth..."

The female voice of "Rikaner's Glory" read the news intently.

"How can they be so shameless?" Evelin, who brought the newspaper, was furious.

"It doesn't matter, the death of the two legends should have been sent back... Next is our turn."

To put it harshly, Annan is a guest of the empire, a teacher of the Principality of Keating, a solid ally of the Principality of Montabourlock, and a friend of the noble lady. He is regarded as one of his own by half of the Middle-earth... Why should the country bumpkins from the north fight with him? fight?

What Annan said is true. The Kingdom of Narikaner is really a disgrace to mankind, a damn scum. What Annan said is false, and it was because of your pressure that he had to do this.

Annan asked Evelin: "Are you resting well?"

"I'm fine, Ms. Yagoni is very attentive..." Evelin said softly.

But why is she blushing?

Annan didn't know whether having a sex demon as a bodyguard was a good thing or a bad thing. He thought it would be fine if the person being protected was not a man, but now it seems...

"How about I ask Mr. Fast to help you?"

"No! Ms. Yagoni just likes to tell stories, and those stories are more... special." Evelin explained with a blushing face, and complained that Annan was prejudiced against the demon of desire.

"Are you using my magic against me?"

After the words fell, Annan heard a familiar name from "The Glory of Ruikan'er" that continued to narrate.

"... Faru Barros, the patriarch of the Barros family, King of the North, accused Annan Reeves of being notorious in the North, and she forcibly took possession of the daughters of many nobles..."

"He is actually still alive?" Annan ignored the slander behind him. Thinking of the mascot I met in the capital.

He was worried that Annan would steal his identity. As for what he said... Leila thought about it and knew that Faru Barros was just an unlucky guy who was pushed out by the royal family.

Annan put down the newspaper: "I'm going to see my ancestors."

"Annan."

Olmedo suddenly called out to Annan, and when he turned around he said, "If you can't hold on any longer, tell us."

This is the essential difference between the false Olmedo and the real Olmedo.

There is nothing wrong with the ancestor, but it seems to be an illusion. Annan always feels that she has more wrinkles.

In the next few days, Liberty City returned to its usual prosperity and tranquility, except that the group of dragons flying over Liberty City was missing a slender blue dragon.

Annan didn't sleep, and asked the dean to help bless him with a blessing so that he could last for a week without rest to warn the devil that he was really angry.

The new "Voice of Freedom" was released, revealing that the Kingdom of Rekaner sent two legends to invade Liberty City, resulting in one death and one injury. "Empire" quoted and confirmed this news.

The situation in the Kingdom of Ruikanl is getting worse and worse. They couldn't defeat Annan, and they couldn't scold Annan. Coupled with the successive defeats in the north, the Knights suffered heavy losses and even almost lost the old land they regained.

Just when Annan thought their resilience was pretty good, bad news came from the theater in the northernmost Keating Principality: they found traces of a rat tide on the border of neighboring countries, and the rats in the Winter Territory also showed strange movements, approaching Dimon. kingdom.

The only good news is that the rat people and demons who were originally allies finally started fighting in the Black Iron Mountains.

In the chaos of October in the north, Liberty City finally welcomed its own mage tower.

The City Lord's Mansion became busy early in the morning. Francois, Fast and others arrived, preparing to go to the Mage Tower together.

When heading downstairs from the third floor, Annan heard movement from Leila's bedroom. Following a knock on the door, Leila appeared behind the door.

"You didn't go fishing...?"

"No."

Layla didn't look happy.

Annan wanted to say that maybe she was really studying secretly... For Leila, this was unbearable pain.

It was like depriving Martin of the right to eat apple pie.

Well, it seems that I shouldn’t bully the real Layla because of the Layla in the dream.

"I've learned something recently, do you want to hear it?"

Leila put on an angry look and poked Annan's collar: "Who do you think you are? Just because you were lucky enough to become a warlock, you want to teach your sister? I want to hear what you have to say..."

"I discovered that environment and mood can affect the effectiveness of meditation. Alas, it's a pity that I don't know how to fish."

"What does this have to do with fishing?"

"Because I'm thinking that meditating while fishing must be very effective." Annan said deliberately.

"This...is useless..."

"Why doesn't it work? Second sister, why do you think fish stay close to seaweed and mud, but are wary of the bait hanging on the hook? Our meditation is contact with nature, and the fish will lose their guard, and they will take the bait. Joy will feed back into meditation, making you more appreciative of the road ahead.”

"real?"

Leila suspected that Annan was lying to her, but he called her second sister...

"Fast is an elite warrior. Even he is fishing. How could it be fake?"

"Then let me... give it a try?" Leila's eyes glowed.

Annan smiled and patted her head: "Go and attend the completion ceremony of the Mage Tower first."

"Be respectful of your sister... I'll change my clothes!"

Layla slapped her hands off her head and went back into the room.

Not long after, Idilia in the living room saw Annan bringing out Leila, who had been locked in the room for several days, and smiled slightly.

…

mage tower

Even with only one floor, the Mage Tower is the largest building in Liberty City. Like the stump of the world tree.

Annan seemed to see the scene in the future where the mage tower penetrated deep into the clouds.

"It is more spectacular than the Mage Tower in Breeze City..." Olmedo couldn't help but sigh.

The next step is to announce the tower owner. After Annan discussed with Dean Blehim, they unanimously decided to conceal the identity of Lilith Talling.

Mages are no strangers to Lilith. They always see Lilith following Lord Blehim. Even if she is not an epic, she is still an archmage who has a close relationship with Lord Blehim.

Then Annan and Lilith entered the mage tower, but the inside of the mage tower was not as spectacular as it looked from the outside. It was empty without even a chair.

Moreover, the current mage tower is so strong that it cannot be dismantled except for legends. The magic power it can release is only between elite mage and master. Excluding the mage, the spell slots that the mage tower itself can accommodate are approximately equal to five times of four-level spells or one five-level spell per day.

It seems that the Wizard's Tower is not worth 600,000 gold coins... but that's not how it should be calculated. Those mages in the Mage Tower are also part of the Mage Tower. And as the second floor is built, the spell slots will be expanded and enhanced.

At least Annan had the confidence to ask Lilith to ask the two deputy city lords and Ingrid for whatever she needed.

The mage tower takes care of the strong ones, the musketeers take care of the miscellaneous soldiers, and if they can't be defeated, they take off... It's simply a free city that will never fall.
