Elite Mages’ Academy

New Washington.

Since the Double Moon Festival, the New World has entered autumn. This bustling city with a century-old history is obviously a bit deserted in the bleak autumn wind. Many shops that were noisy in the past are still closed, especially with a large number of elves. A large number quietly left the city.

At this time, nearly half a month has passed since the Single Moon Festival known as Nightmare Day, and no one in the city can forget what happened that night. For the natives, this unprecedented scene is shocking, but for the local aborigines, it is terrifying.

In the central area of ​​the city, in the imperial palace area, the undead skeletons that raged in the imperial palace that day were completely cleaned up, and the wreckage was completely burned into powder. In addition, in order to prevent future situations, the Judgment Academy also carefully inspected the places where the corpses might be buried that year. , leaving nothing behind.

The response measures of the Judgment Academy can be said to be quite rapid, but many impacts have been caused after all, and it is difficult to reverse it in a short time.

In a hall in the palace, around a huge round table, a dozen or so Americans were sitting, having a heated discussion.

"In the past two weeks in New Washington, the business transaction volume has dropped by 12 percentage points, and many daily necessities have almost completely stagnated. If this continues, our income this year will drop sharply."

"Business is second. What I'm worried about now is the population problem! This is the population entry and exit data I just got from the city garrison. In just ten days, nearly 40,000 to 50,000 people left New Washington! Our city is only more than one million people man!"

"Population is still very important to us. The infrastructure construction in the colony requires a lot of labor, and our tax revenue mainly comes from the local aborigines. We can't let the people in our college do a lot of hard work. This issue really needs to be taken seriously. "

"I have read the statistics of the Garrison Office. Not many local aborigines have left, and the second or even third generation of aborigines have basically taken root. Their families and industries are all in New Washington. They can't leave even if they want to. What worries me more is that they are still elves. Clan, haven’t you noticed? From the day before yesterday, the elves in the city suddenly left in large numbers, and many shops opened by the elves were sold at low prices. It seems that they don’t plan to come back at all!”

"How long is the peace alliance treaty between our Judgment Academy and the elves?"

"I remember that there are still more than ten years left in the Hundred Years Alliance Treaty. The elves are a race that values ​​promises and credit, so there is no need to worry about them breaking the contract."

"What about ten years later? What if the elves refuse to renew the contract?"

"Now is not thinking about things that will happen more than ten years later, so don't drag the topic too far! You should think about how to save the fiscal revenue of New Washington this year!"

"Enough!" There was a sudden furious shout in the noisy hall, and the man sitting in the farthest corner jumped up. Unlike other people in casual clothes, this man was covered in silver armor and his helmet was placed on the table. His face was full of impatience and contempt, and his deep and deep voice echoed in the hall.

"You have been discussing the population, finances and contracts of the elves. I said, have you been away from the academy for so long that you have forgotten who we are?"

There was a commotion in the hall, and an older man stood up and said displeasedly: "Captain Harry, this is a municipal meeting today, and you are the leader of Dragonhawk Knights. It stands to reason that the military department has nothing to do with this meeting. If you hadn't said that you had something important to report, we didn't plan to let you participate at all!"

The heavily armed man was none other than Harry. He sneered and said: "Don't forget that we are colonists! We can plunder again when the population is gone, and we can rob if we can't make ends meet. As for the elves, heh, even if that weak and incompetent race really wants to go to war with us, what's the point?" So scary!"

"Harry, what do you mean by that, if you have something to say, just say it, don't be sarcastic!"

Harry took a deep breath. Temporarily suppressing his anger, his voice was cold: "So much has been discussed in today's meeting.

But you seem to have forgotten a very important thing! Lilith disappeared after that incident, and has never been heard from until now. Does no one care? "

"Lilith, you know that woman's personality. She does whatever she thinks of, without any sense of propriety or rules. Maybe she has found some interesting opponents, and she left New Washington first. Maybe after a while she will I'm back." The man who spoke before said perfunctorily.

A stern look appeared on Harry's face, and he said angrily, "It seems that you don't know the importance of Lilith to the Judgment Academy!"

"We naturally understand the importance of Lilith, Captain Harry, I can understand your feelings, but now is no longer the era of colonization by war alone, economics and commerce are also very important, and everything we do is for the ruling interests of the College.”

"Speaking of which, Captain Harry, you said that you have something important to report today, is that what you mean?"

Harry took a deep breath, slowly shook his head and said, "The one who disappeared with Lilith that day was also a student from the Dawn Academy whom we invited."

The short man closest to Harry was about to fall asleep. After hearing Harry's words, he immediately opened his eyes, twisted his buttocks, and adjusted his slightly bloated body to a more comfortable sitting position. Then he said slowly: " This matter belongs to my Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The student of Suguang is Xiao Lin, who was indeed invited by us to participate in the work of Professor Brown. After the blood moon incident that day, Captain Harry and I interrogated the students who were controlled by the undead overnight. Unfortunately, no information was obtained.”

The man at the head of the round table wore glasses and seemed to be the host of the meeting. He frowned and asked, "Dawn College? That's a little troublesome. We also signed an alliance treaty with Shuguang College, so we can't compromise the relationship because of this." Nervous, what grade is this student in Dawn Academy, and what is his level of strength?"

The short man replied: "The freshmen who have just entered the school, their strength has not yet reached the black iron level, and they rely on the anti-gravity accessories and super potions we provide to work in New Washington."

The man with glasses breathed a sigh of relief: "Freshman? That's okay, can you hide it from Shuguang College temporarily?"

The short man spread his hands: "This is also what I am going to report today. I am afraid that this matter is a bit tricky. Accompanying Xiao Lin is a minister of Shuguang College. The minister sent the information to Shuguang College immediately. It is impossible to hide it. Now that the special investigation team sent by Shuguang College is in my Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I would like to ask the city hall, how should I deal with it?"
