Arcane Lord

Swish——

Without any hesitation, Aibo stood up immediately and said with the same solemnity: "Eps, you don't have to doubt my loyalty. I will continue to obey Niya until the end of my life."

After saying that, Aibo's expression softened, he hesitated, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Eps, are you really, really -"

"Yes, I'm dying." Epps was very calm about this. Of course, he would not explain that he just entered the stasis space and might still be alive in the future.

No one can predict what will happen in the future. It won’t be too late to wait until he can come out alive. He looked at Ai Bok, who had a look of unbearable expression on his face, and felt a little sad in his heart:

"I feel relieved to have you in the Tower of Time and Thane in the territory."

Just as he was talking, a series of soft footsteps came from outside the room. Epps knew that others had arrived, so he asked Ai Burke to bring them in.

Soon, people outside the house entered the meeting room in the town hall one after another, and were divided into three columns according to their order.

Epps' eyes swept over these familiar faces one by one——

There is the temple sequence that is relatively independent and the easiest to hand over; there is the Tower of Time sequence that is connected with the Mage Tower as the core link; and there is the territory sequence that is the weakest and involves the largest number of people.

"Bishop Ambril, you come to witness that from now on, the lord of Savile Territory will be Niya."

Epps' words shocked everyone, and they all considered whether the handover of lords would affect their own interests. However, Bishop Ambril, whom Epps pointed to first, was unambiguous and immediately saluted Niya.

At the same time, Bishop Ambril summoned the will of the Lord of Glory. When the orderly and ruthless divine radiance filled the entire room, Epps repeated his previous words:

"From now on, I will hand over the Savile Territory to the hands of my daughter Niya. From now on, Niya will be the lord of the Savile Territory and the witness of the Lord of Glory."

"Lord Niya, on behalf of the territorial temple, I would like to offer my loyalty!"

Under the will of the Lord of Radiance, Ambril led the temple sequence to collectively pledge allegiance, and with the leader, the territory sequence, led by Thain, the chief political officer of the Savile Territory and the mayor of Savile Town, saluted Niya and swore allegiance to Niya. .

Of course, compared to the temple personnel who have simple demands and few personal desires, the heads of the territory are much more complicated. Even if they are loyal, it does not mean that they are completely obedient, and they may even misinterpret the orders.

And the management of the territory cannot be separated from them. Epps knows that these people are in trouble, but it is just trouble. What he is most worried about is not this, but the Tower of Time.

The people in the Tower of Time are not loyal to the tower owner, but choose based on interests and are connected by contracts. If Niya cannot guarantee the normal operation of the Tower of Time and the interests of the mages, then the mages will soon abandon the Tower of Time. tower.

"From now on, Niya will lead the Tower of Time!"

As soon as Epps finished speaking, the mages in the conference room started to become a little commotion, and some even started secretly casting spells to contact them.

In this regard, Epps did not stop him, but motioned for Niya to speak. He looked at his daughter, still with a blank expression, and was angry in his heart, but at the same time, for the first time, he had feelings about his risky behavior for the sake of plane crystallization. Regret.

He had to admit that he was indeed dazzled by the benefits represented by the plane crystal at that time. Even if it was just a possibility, he paid a huge price.

But on the other hand, how many people in this world can resist the temptation of plane crystallization!

Epps sighed in his heart. Looking at his daughter again, his heart was full of pity and reluctance, but the handover must go on. Epps reminded:

"Niya, tell me what you think."

"Oh." Niya seemed to have just come back to her senses. She first glanced at her father, then noticed a group of mages waiting to hear her thoughts, and then she realized what she was thinking.

"I will keep the current measures of the Tower of Time unchanged, maintain the relevant permissions and shares of all mages unchanged, and actively pay attention to the development of magic in the outside world, promote trade with the outside world, and safeguard the overall interests of the Tower of Time."

These words sounded like some kind of action plan. In fact, it was indeed the case. The tower owner could not force the mage to be loyal, and could only use his own governing philosophy to gain recognition.

Without a group of mages to serve as wings, no matter how powerful the Tower of Time is, it is just a wizard tower, without the influence that radiates to the entire territory or even further areas.

Even the Grand Arcanist cannot ignore the mage class under his command. He may easily kill a specific mage, but he cannot kill the entire mage class.

If everyone turns their backs, no matter how powerful they are, things will not be easy for them.

Of course, this usually does not happen. When an ordinary mage faces a great arcanist, the bottom line is frighteningly low! More often than not, countless people cry and beg to become the subordinates of the Grand Arcanist.

And Niya needs to ensure that she maintains her past authority and share, and also ensures development, in order to be recognized by the mages.

Scaryly real.

After Niya finished speaking about her governance agenda, a group of mages led by Epps' apprentices and several mid-level mages jointly announced their firm support for Niya's leadership.

At this point, all three sequences of the Saville Territory were handed over. Epps looked at it all with a smile, and his mind returned to the time when he became the lord.

He knew that although the handover on the surface had been completed, there were still many details that needed to be worked out slowly. Unfortunately, he might not be able to see it.

"One more thing, for some reason, the Tower of Time cannot return to the territory for the time being. You must do a good job in all aspects to appease it."

This matter cannot be concealed after all, so Epps just talked about it together so as not to cause more trouble to Niya. Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking.

Thain immediately started crying, "Without the Mage Tower, how can we deter outsiders? How can the people in the territory live and work with peace of mind?"

Mage groups also came to complain, worried that the Tower of Time was not in the town, which would affect the normal supply of the Tower of Time, especially regarding the procurement of experimental materials, export of magic items, etc., which all require a stable trade environment.

"Sion!" Epps knew that what he was talking about was reality, but the Tower of Time really couldn't move now. Even if it accumulated enough energy to carry out overall transmission after a year, it would not be suitable to change its position in order to stabilize the guidance beacon.

"I will ask Niya to arrange for members of the Tower of Time to be stationed in the town hall. At the same time, the temple also needs to send people to be stationed in the East District. Finally, if necessary, the power of the Tower of Time can come at any time."

Just like guided teleportation, other magical powers of the Tower of Time can also come remotely, but it's just a matter of cost. In the past, it was rarely necessary to do this, but now the situation is different.

"That's it, Bishop Ambril will stay for a while, and everyone else can go back to the celebration!"

"yes!"

The celebration outside is still going on, and it’s not good for people to leave all the time. It’s just that they were in one mood when they came, and they were in another mood when they went back.
