Vol 2 Chapter 212: Ebden in the shadow (below)

The genius remembers "Love ♂ Go ÷ Little? Say → Net" in one second, to provide you with wonderful novel reading.
For the following week, the night watchmen of Loren and Ebden were always searching for the sewers and the ruins of the south of the city, but there were few clues.
No, it should be said that there is almost no right.
At this stage of the investigation, the identity of the perpetrators has long been revealed, and it is only the danger of whether "Fansisis is still alive" that will allow them to continue their tireless search.
For Loren, he was only a hidden danger; and in the eyes of the night watchman, the bishop had already come into contact with the night watchman's secrets, and he was the object that must be removed as soon as possible.
Even in the entire territory of the Sacran Empire, there are very few people who really know the "night watchman", and even people who know vaguely have only heard of such an organization that only loyal to the royal family, even the emperor himself; able to reach the edge Or have a cooperative relationship ...
It can be counted with one hand.
For an underground organization dominated by intelligence and assassination, intricate networks and various hidden materials are not only their capital but also their lifeline.
There is no need to show off the dagger hidden in the dark; the more unknown it is, the sharper it is.
Compared with the due diligence of the night watchmen, Loren is more like "coping with things." Under the guise of investigation, he contacts Corona from time to time to learn and master the control method of "valve".
According to Corona's research, once opened, the effect of the "valve" on the wizard is almost irreversible, but it is not impossible to control it.
Unlike any wizard, Loren does not need an external force like the "Nine-Mounted Holy Grail". He is a "valve" in itself, and the impact of excessive use on him is even greater than other wizards- Like the battle of Yong Ye Lin in Metzka, he can only be said that he is too lucky. 【Love ↑ Go △ Small ↓ Say △ WwW.AiQu】
The existence of the "valve" overlaps the boundary between the void and the matter, allowing Loren to use almost unlimited high-level spells far beyond the usual power, but the resulting load is not simply non-existent, but in that state. The next feeling is not obvious.
Therefore, compared with the power brought by the "valve", Corona put more emphasis on the research to broaden the level of the spiritual hall.
Simply put, it is to shape your own "dream world".
For evil gods like Asriel, the "dream world" is their most powerful means, and the final card-the wizard dragged into it has little chance of defeating them in it, both to maintain rationality and maintain Sober, often die.
But for the wizards, that is another matter.
Wizards who live in the real world do not need a "legend" to maintain their existence; what restricts them is the innate "yoke"; once the yoke is broken, a "dream world" of their own is established ...
That means countless possibilities, and an almost endless upper limit-the meaning contained in it is far more important than the Holy Grail or the "valve" itself!
This is the reason why the wizards craved the Holy Grail, and it is also the true meaning of the "Nine Stars" shining with gray and blue light.
Unlimited possibilities-there is nothing more than this, which makes the wizards tirelessly pursue.
…………………………
The humble carriage stopped in the alley, and Loren in the carriage slightly opened the venetian blinds in the window, quietly observing this Eboden gradually recovering from the ruins and death.
But what is truly amazing is the unparalleled high efficiency brought about by the free council after Corona led.
In order to establish the absolute authority of the sorcerer tower and the image among the people at the bottom, Corona has invested a lot of resources in the restoration work in the south of the city at almost no cost. There are no fewer than three hundred wizards mobilized for this huge project !
The academic alchemists took out the drawings and planning guidelines they had designed countless times; the spellcasters who were proficient in spells were directly involved in the construction work together with the apprentices; the herbalists and pharmacists set out to eliminate large-scale deaths The plagues and illnesses ...
Even those refugees and villagers outside the city who had survived the disaster, got their jobs in this huge reconstruction work, and there is a place that can be used as a shelter after the repair in the south of the city. No commitment to pay poll tax.
For Ebden's large and small workshops, restoration work also requires a lot of materials, equipment, materials ... and all these things can be turned into their orders!
All in all, with the opportunity of reconstruction, the Freedom Council not only wiped out the large and small slums, but also greatly stimulated the economy that fell due to the destruction. While solving the hidden dangers of refugees, the city was restored. Vitality is really more than one thing.
As for the cost of the entire reconstruction work, although Ebden is wealthy in the entire empire, such a huge expenditure is still not affordable by the Free Parliament, and usually borrows money from the free nobles in the city, and the nobles also believe in freedom The credit of the Parliament ... and the usury under the credit.
But this time because of the seizure of the property of the Bellini family and their followers, not only did the Liberal Council led by Corona not borrow a penny, but they also incurred a lot of high debt by the way.
Quite unpredictably, the
prophecy
of a royal prince seems to be gradually being fulfilled-as long as three months, the wizards can restore Eboden to its original state, or even better than the past!
And all that was done was the old man in front of him ... slowly lowered the blinds, and the dark-haired wizard's gaze returned to Corona.
Compared with him a week ago, the old man's face not only did not have many wrinkles, but also looked a lot red, and looked radiant.
"Some people say that power is the true fountain of youth. I didn't believe this statement." Loren couldn't help but make a joke with him: "But what you look like now seems to prove that I made a mistake. . "
"On the contrary, outside this period is the most exhausting period of my life. Even the apprenticeship of hard work day and night can not be compared. I feel that I am ten years old overnight."
No matter what expression is used, Corona will always be so polite, and the humble smile is more like a scholar than a ruling officer: "As for appearance ... It is different to be a ruling officer and a wizard, if it is still the past. The old look is a very dangerous signal. "
Loren expressed his understanding-Corona, who is in front of him, is old after all. If it looks decadent ... how many people will be willing to be loyal to an old man who is about to die and will be kicking at any time?
Instead of being those nobles, watching the lord of the ruling officer could not live for a few days, I was thinking more about how to grab the heir's position to be more practical.
"However, although the consul is a chore, it is still good." Corona smiled slightly and took out a letterhead from the cuff. The stamp on the cover made Loren narrow his eyes slightly.
The iron crown lifted by the three-headed dragon ... the coat of arms of the DeSalinese family.
"This letter arrived today, and it was sent directly from the imperial capital of Golovin." The old man tapped the envelope gently: "Our Majesty Eckhart II specially sent a mission to Ebden. Meeting ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Loren raised his eyebrows, he felt something in Corona's words.
"Although it is just a letter that congratulates the new consul on taking office and discusses the aftermath, the content of less than a hundred words does not mention His Highness Brandon-you know, Ebden ’s The situation was almost caused by the Royal Highness. Is n’t it too strange to specifically avoid it? "
"You mean ..."
"It may also be an inadvertent error made by His Majesty, but it is more likely to be related to Crown Prince Connor, this is just speculation." Corona looked at Loren: "If His Highness Brandon is recalled to the capital, you are sure as a wizard advisor Also go together, that is to say ... "
"... this is our 'last lesson'?" Loren said half-jokingly.
"It's not that exaggerated yet." Corona chuckled. "In addition, I also got a relatively secret information about the members of the mission, there is a very special person ...
The leader of the night watchman, Rut Infinite, he is also inside! "Mobile phone users, please browse and read for a better reading experience.
