Warlord: King of All Clans
Chapter 446 The thief's heart is not dead
Freya inherited this quality of the Elf Queen very well.
She became thinner because Teacher Bobak starved her, and she gained weight because Olivia fed her too much. Anyway, it had nothing to do with her greed.
Just in case, Leo lured Freya away under the pretext of going shopping for delicious food, stuffed her into his trouser pocket, and then went to the White Tower of the Holy Order Mage Francis with Noreen.
This more than 200-meter-high White Mage Tower is the tallest building in the imperial capital. The imperial palace built on the mountain is much shorter than it.
Only the towering Griffin's Perch on the hill behind the Imperial Palace can rival the Mage's White Tower.
This place is like the Ancestral Divine Peak in the holy city of Ancestor in the North, and is equivalent to an extraordinary sect.
For low-level wizards who graduated from the Imperial Capital Magic Academy, in addition to continuing their studies at the Magic Academy, their second choice is to enter the Wizard's White Tower for further studies and obtain the inheritance of a holy wizard.
The magic system in the extraordinary way is an extraordinary way that requires inheritance more than the physical system. The accumulation of magical knowledge, experience and insights is more important than practicing alone.
Moreover, spells belong to spiritual awakening, and magic can be used actively at a low level. It also has the effect of opening up the mind. Therefore, mages' brains are generally better than warriors, and they are better at learning.
Therefore, mages have always been the main carrier of human cultural heritage, not only in the extraordinary fields of alchemy, enchantment, and inscription, but also in the humanities and arts such as music, painting, literature, etc., which are filled with mages.
The Master's White Tower is not far from the imperial palace, and it only takes half an hour by carriage.
This place is still within the confines of the imperial palace. Teams of golden-armored guards patrol by from time to time, and there are almost no pedestrians on the road.
Leo opened the car window and looked out casually. He suddenly felt like he was being watched, but as soon as he became alert, the feeling disappeared immediately.
Looking at the spacious and clean streets, Leo muttered, "The thief is still ruthless..."
After the River Bay delegation arrived in the imperial capital, they stayed at home very rarely due to Norin's warning.
Most of the members of the delegation were inside the palace, with Leo being the only one outside.
He also kept his distance from the royal family and only acted as the adopted son of the Grand Duke of the North.
Even so, after staying for too long, he was secretly targeted by conspiracy forces.
The methods of the extraordinary world are too secretive and strange, comparable to modern technology, and Leo's understanding of the extraordinary world is only at the level of a low-level wizard, which is still superficial. There are too many methods that he has never seen.
If he hadn't had the support of the Elf Queen, he would probably have hidden back in the river bend and continued to develop quietly after collecting a wave of industrial equipment and advanced technologies from the imperial capital.
Sitting in the carriage, Noreen stared at Leo, her heart pounding.
After Leo came to the imperial capital, the two met often, but they didn't have much time to be alone together, and they rarely talked.
She is the chief of the personal guard of Her Royal Highness the Princess and has her own duties. Although her position is high, she is not free.
Looking at Leo who was thinking with his head down, a thought suddenly occurred to Norin: "If I hadn't come back after finding Her Royal Highness the Princess, maybe I could have lived on in the river bay forever..."
"No, that won't work. Someone has planted a magic mark on me. It will be triggered when I meet the princess. Conspiracies are always one step ahead. Staying in the river bend will only bring disaster..."
At this time, Freya, who had turned into a little hamster, crawled out of Leo's trouser pocket and stared at Noreen for a long time.
They have a friendship of stealing honey together and are quite familiar with each other.
She suddenly jumped out, quickly climbed onto Noreen’s shoulders, and whispered in her ear, “Brother Leo likes you too!”
Norin's ears turned red immediately. Just as she was about to explain, Freya said, "Sister Olivia likes you too!"
"I like you, too!"
Noreen was very happy and stroked Freya's back, "Really? I like you guys too!"
Freya waited for a long time, but did not see the reward. She immediately snorted and quickly went back into Leo's trouser pocket, "I don't like it now!"
Noreen stood there in a daze, feeling completely bewildered. She couldn't even utter the private words that she had intended to use to describe her "evil intentions".
When they arrived at the White Tower of Mages, Leo stood outside the gate, looking at the people coming in and out, and was shocked, "Are they all mages?"
Norin nodded and said, "Of course. There are at least more than two thousand registered mages in the imperial capital. It is normal to have several hundred here."
At the gate of the Mage's White Tower, mages in robes were shoulder to shoulder, similar to the scene in a magic academy.
But most of the members of the magic academy are wizard apprentices, while here they are all extraordinary wizards.
The mage apprentice's mage robe and the extraordinary mage's mage robe are not only different in color and style, but also have clear markings to distinguish them.
Although most of the people here are low-level mages, they are still mages!
If the extraordinary people in the North are one in a thousand, then the extraordinary magicians are one in ten thousand. There are a population of 100,000 in the territory of Isenpol, and the number of extraordinary magicians can be counted on one hand.
But in the southern imperial capital, there are more than two thousand registered mages in the Magic Association alone.
These are only a part of the magical extraordinary people. There are also a large number of Holy Light Priests in the Holy Light Church. They will not register with the Magic Association, but almost all of them have awakened the power of Holy Light.
Leo walked through the crowd, saying, "I heard that the earls in the south all have their own knights and mages, while we in the north only have the Knights of the Guard and the Mages. Only Grand Duke Michel has a mage corps."
Noreen thought for a moment and replied, "About the same. My father, Count Leopold, has about a hundred wizards under his command, which can be considered a wizard group."
Leo felt sour and didn't want to talk to Noreen.
He knew about Knight Norin's family background. Her family was just a moderate earl family near the imperial capital. Their land was less than one-fifth of that of the great earl in the north, and their population was less than half of that of the earl in the south.
But such an ordinary Earl of the Southern Territory has a hundred wizards!
The Countess families of Frelov and Gustav, who were full of martial virtues in the North, only employed one or two high-level wizards and asked them to lead eight or ten middle and low-level wizards to maintain the main city's defensive formation.
In a racial war like the Battle of Frovald, only the Grand Duke of the North brought a reorganized mage corps of 100 people.
The military mages of the other earls formed a loose mage group together.
Relying on these two mage groups, the magical combat power of the orcs was suppressed.
Leo's business card has been sent to the Mage's White Tower for half a month, but there has been no official reply.
He sent the business card in the name of a subordinate of the Elf Queen, wanting to discuss the invasion of the undead, but Archmage Francis neither refused nor agreed to the meeting.
This time, Leo added the name of Charles VII.
In addition, everyone was already sitting in the reception room of the Mage's White Tower, and the Holy Order Grand Mage Francis finally invited Leo to the tower for a meeting.
