After waking up

Just as Farrow Lynch thought, something big happened, but because of the limitations of his vision and the asymmetry of information, he didn't understand how big of a thing happened. Now he just wants to hide with others. .

Twelve days have passed since Mulan privately used the most advanced spell array in Black Castle and almost exhausted the stored magic energy of the core magic crystal.

During these twelve days, Mulan did not submit any reports. Instead, he stayed in the office and the library. He also frequently used the spell formations in the Golden Magic Hall several times, and did not give any information to the students for nearly two weeks. We start classes.

In this situation, it is easy to think that Mulan has entered some special research state, and the use of Black Castle's magic array is also due to some research needs.

Walton did not go to Mulan immediately. He thought that he would be summoned and questioned by the queen soon, and then he would take Mulan with him to explain. However, he did not expect that this matter would not cause even the slightest disturbance. It seemed to have passed so peacefully.

Walton understood that the Queen suppressed this matter directly, so does that mean that Mulan was doing some very important research for the Queen?

After almost two weeks, Walton finally lost his composure and came to the Ministry of Magic, ready to question Mulan directly.

But at this moment, Mulan was taking time to give a lecture to a student in the office. Walton couldn't go in directly, but he was also a little strange. Mulan didn't even take a public class, and he was still giving a lecture to a student? With doubts, he could only go back to his office to stay.

Walton came in to the first office of the Ministry of Magic only a handful of times, but I have to say that the office was well decorated and the chairs were quite comfortable.

Walton sat on the chair and put his feet on the corner of the table, looking at the pile of documents on the table. He was not even interested in taking a look. The big things that really needed his attention were never explained in documents, and then he inadvertently I scanned the most recent document.

I glanced at it, glanced twice, until I slowly sat up and took the document into my hands, and read it word by word carefully, my eyes widening slightly as the reading progressed.

Secret Weaver? In other words, Mulan has been studying this thing recently? That huge amount of magic energy was consumed but nowhere to be found.

Walton's heart skipped a beat. This probably means that Mullan has really researched some key results?

"Dong dong dong"

There was a knock on the door, and Walton raised his head and saw that the person at the door was not Mulan, but a palace official.

"My lord, Her Majesty the Queen has summoned you and Lord Jones."

"Okay, I know."

Walton put down the report and stood up. Apparently Mullan had also been summoned, and the two met outside the door.

Jenny saw someone in the next office for the first time, and immediately bowed to the person carefully.

"Professor Walton!"

"Hello, are you Jenny?"

"Well, Professor, do you recognize me?"

Mulan took over the conversation.

"Of course Professor Walton recognizes you. Many people are concerned about your progress. Well, today's topic is over. Go back by yourself. We have other things to do."

Jenny quickly saluted the two of them, and then asked in a low voice.

"Professor Jonest, why are you starting a class? Hathaway and the others want to take your class."

Mulan glanced at Jenny.

"Their theories are already relatively solid. They don't need my guidance in open classes for the time being. Tell them to teach more new students. I have to focus on studying some things recently. You understand, this is very important."

"Yes, Professor! I'll leave first then."

Jenny stuck out her tongue and quickly slipped away. After she left, Walton looked at her back and said.

"A very nice girl, how is she?"

"She is our student, Professor Walton, you can't, at least you shouldn't"

Hearing Mullan's aggravated words, Walton immediately interrupted.

"No, what are you thinking about? I mean how is her study progress? Is that possible?"

To be honest, Mulan really thought for a moment that Walton was looking at Jenny's figure, and then he answered with a slight embarrassment.

"Jenny's talent is outstanding. I am increasingly convinced that she can become a secret weaver and will do her best to control variables."

"That's good."

Walton nodded with a smile and put his hand on Mulan's shoulder.

"I will help you speak to the queen. Let's go to the palace."

When Mullan and Walton arrived at the palace, they found that the leader did not take them to the Queen's office, but to the Council Hall.

In the council hall, there were actually many military and political ministers and various related officials gathered, plus people around the queen, making it a bustling crowd.

Mullan and Walton came in, but the noise in the council hall did not quiet down.

"quiet--"

The council hall fell silent amidst Mongli's roar, and Mullan and Walton immediately saluted the queen.

"Okay, the people from Black Castle are here too. Mengli, please repeat it briefly."

Meng Geli nodded, took a step forward, glanced at everyone in the council hall, and then mainly looked at Mulan and Walton.

"Large-scale turmoil broke out in the Kingdom of Ginsbia, and all parts of the country were in turmoil. Under such circumstances, a religion called the Religion of Life appeared in Ginsbia, and it has been officially announced by Ginsbia Listed as state religion.”

"The Cult of Life? What about the Holy Church?"

Walton asked in surprise.

"The church still has the nominal right to preach, but believers have the right to choose their own beliefs."

When Mongli said this, an official from the Intelligence Department couldn't help but interject.

"But in fact, believers in the Cult of Life cannot tolerate heretics. The turmoil is mainly caused by believers, and gradually involves all aspects of the country. Many churches have been destroyed, and the whereabouts of church clergy in many places have not been evacuated. Unknown, countless churchgoers suffered, and according to reliable information, Kingspea’s army joined the riot.”

Nishelir also stood up from her seat.

"The Holy Church hopes that we, Dilga, can directly dispatch troops to intervene in the turmoil in the Kingdom of Goldspear. What do you think?"

The military minister could not help but speak first.

"We don't have many troops at the Kingspea border. Not to mention the external impact of this on us, there are also problems with internal mobilization of troops. The Southern Army is concentrated on the Bach border, the Northern Army is concentrated on the Basman border, and the Central Army cannot Easily mobilized, the navy has little impact on inland rebellions, and the mobilizable forces are too fragmented.”

The Chancellor of the Exchequer also immediately spoke out.

"Yes, Your Majesty, there are more than 200,000 soldiers in the standing army of Ginspea. If you intervene easily, you may be dragged into the quagmire of war. It is just a civil war in Ginspea, and the fate of the Ginspea people will be decided by themselves. ”

"But if we don't make preparations, what if the unrest spreads to our empire?"

"Yes, and can Kingspea's two hundred thousand troops appear together? Just three legions are enough to sweep across its borders!"

"Have you calculated the supplies and logistics required for the departure of the three legions? Where will the legions be mobilized? Will they use new soldiers?"

"That is a matter of your finances and logistics. The legion can draw experienced combat troops from all parties."

"Tune it up with your mouth?"

"There must be extraordinary people in the Life God Religion, so it will involve extraordinary confrontation, and the war variables will be greatly deepened."

"How do you know there must be extraordinary beings? I think they are just a group of cultists at most!"

"Are you a fool? They all dare to destroy the temple, and if there are no extraordinary people, the people from the Black Castle will not come!"

There was another quarrel in the council hall, and several groups of people were literally "fighting each other", and the quarrel was particularly fierce.

"Then we just don't care? Now every day many people from Goldspear are fleeing to the border of the empire. What should these people do?"

"Then have you ever thought about it, even if we have enough ability to send troops, why should we respond to the orders of the Holy Church? Are we a tributary of the Holy Church?"

Nishelir, who was in front of the throne, couldn't help but rub her forehead.

For half a day, there was no progress on whether to send troops to Kingspea, but there was a consensus on mobilizing troops to the border.

Mulan was also able to deduce what happened to Farrow Lynch based on this information and intelligence. He was probably involved in the turmoil and met someone from the so-called Life God Cult.

Then came the afternoon session, and new news came. A new sacred object was suspected to have appeared in Kingspea!

At this time, many people, including Walton and Mullan, became energetic. For many people, new holy objects represent new possibilities, and the temptation is very great before their power is clear.

For Mulan, if he can obtain a sacred object, he can study the sacred object at close range and find its weaknesses, even if it is only for a period of time.

As a result, after listening to it, Mulan felt more and more strange. The descriptions of light and fire made him vaguely feel that it was not a holy object, but the power of the Book of Dawn. Of course, it was possible that he had misunderstood it.

If it is a real holy object, Mulan wants to get it very much. What if it is the Book of Dawn?

‘Then let the world think it has become a real holy object! ’

Mullan and Walton were both standing in the corner of the council hall, and he was asking each other in a low voice.

"Sir Walton, do you think the Empire should intervene in the war?"

Walton shrugged.

"I'm only interested in the holy object, what about you?"

Mulan looked at Nishelil on the throne. It seemed that he was aware of it and it seemed to be a coincidence. Nishelil also happened to look in the direction of Mulan.

"Sir Jones, you were once a member of the Imperial Military, and now you are a member of the Ministry of Magic. Do you think we should intervene?"

Mulan took two steps forward and approached Her Majesty the Queen slightly.

"Back to Your Majesty, I humbly see that the riots in Kingspea are not simple. Is the so-called Life God's Religion really a sudden rise?"

Mulan's words directly crossed to another angle. Many people also became quiet, and Nice Helier also sat upright.

"Your Majesty, and all ministers, it is difficult for a new religion to gain momentum when there is suppression from the Holy Church, but the Life God Religion swept Kingspia into chaos in less than a month. Then it has at least gone through several stages of dormancy, penetration, development, accumulation, explosion, breakthrough and success, which is enough to infer that it has a strict internal organization, can keep secrets, and has the power to gather people's hearts and considerable force. !”

Mulan narrowed his eyes and looked into the hall.

"Is there a religion of life in the empire? Does anyone among the nobles of the empire believe in this religion?"

At this moment, everyone was slightly terrified, because it was really not impossible!

Of course Mulan hopes that Dilga will send troops, and it is best for him to go with him. He has already thought of the reasons, but this is not what he means. First, he must arouse everyone's suspicion of the so-called Life God Cult.

As for whether there are activities of the Cult of Life in Dilga, and they must be malicious activities, it is not difficult for Mulan. He decided to blame the werewolf disaster of Shire, which could threaten the core circle of the empire, to the Cult of Life. , the evidence is that Baron Charles is one of our own, just fabricate it!
