Chapter 717: Pumasai sends Bayan advisor to lead the team
The king and his ministers had a pleasant conversation and discussed the state affairs in depth. Finally, the king personally escorted Master Bayan to the teleportation array, which undoubtedly showed his full support for the Magic Island operation.
However, this is only a small microcosm of the whole incident. In fact, the vast majority of magicians' associations expressed support for the Magic Island, for no other reason than that the New Order's attack on the church was really gratifying. For a long time, many magicians had to endure the arrogance of those charlatans because the Magic Association declared neutrality, and now they finally had a chance to fight back.
If the church problem can be successfully solved, it will undoubtedly be a great benefit to the entire magician community. And Vittar not only called on all magicians to work together, but also issued a large number of magic coins as rewards for killing enemies in order to motivate everyone. In this way, magicians can not only fight for justice, but also accumulate wealth by the way, which is naturally very popular.
As for Kashin and Zaire, they didn't seem to want to go downstairs to the restaurant for dinner. They had a heated discussion about Warcraft and proposed a theory of domestication that allowed pets to cooperate with their owners. Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, Kashin had an idea and ordered dinner in advance from the floor manager.
After all, Cashen was familiar with Chester, so when he ordered, he chose his favorite dishes without hesitation.
When it was time for dinner, the two of them were waiting to eat and talked about the war situation: "Brother Kashin, you see, so many magicians have arrived at once. I told you that the higher-ups have been planning for a long time, so there's no need to worry."
"What's the use of having more people? Mr. Zaire can't take it lightly. The key to victory or defeat on the battlefield is the comprehensive consideration of many conditions! Blaney is not very optimistic because of the Zaun Empire's war eagles..."
"Zaire smiled and said, "Never mind him. After today I will be busy with logistics and work hard! The war has nothing to do with me! Although I want to win, what can I do? The war is not mys to fight... Brother Kashin, just complete the assigned tasks!"
At this time, the apprentices brought the dishes over, and the two prepared good wine and were ready to eat. Just as they sat down, there was a knock on the door. When they asked, it was the apprentice who helped open the door. It turned out to be Master Bayan who came.
When Kashen heard this, he realized that he was his master in theory. In order to be able to use the teleportation array, he nominally acknowledged Blaney as his master. After inheriting the legacy, he successfully joined the Magic Association.
"Senior Zaire, the magician Pumasai has arrived. He is said to be Blaney's mentor." Kashin reported to Zaire respectfully.
Zaire smiled slightly and said, "Oh? Since he is one of us, let him in."
After receiving the instructions, Kashin turned around to open the door, and then welcomed Master Bayan into the house with a smile.
"Haha, I'm so sorry to disturb you two while you're having a meal." Teacher Bayan said politely as soon as he entered the door.
Zaire quickly stood up and responded with a smile: "No, no, welcome to visit! It's not a bother at all. Please take a seat and have a drink with us!"
Teacher Bayan was not polite and walked straight to the table and sat down.
Zaire went on to say, "We ordered quite a lot of dishes, so we can share some with you."
Upon seeing this, Kashin hurried out to ask the floor manager for a set of tableware, and when he came back he placed it in front of Mentor Bayan.
The three of them sat together and started chatting while drinking.
After three rounds of drinks, Kashin became concerned about the domestic war situation and asked, "Senior Zaire, I wonder what the current domestic war situation is like?"
Zaire put down his glass and began to speak excitedly: "Haha, now the imperial guards from all the camps have already started to take action, and the progress is very smooth!"
He described in detail the battle plan of the Imperial Guards and the results achieved so far, and it sounded like the rebellion would be quelled in the near future.
Kashin finally breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "After the winter, Madam will lead the army north to recapture the province of Quek, and the north has almost been pacified."
Zaire smiled and said, "The Marshal's troops are getting fewer and fewer because he is carrying out land reform along the way and constantly dividing his troops. The court gave him another 5,000 troops and sent them to Sheldon Castle a few days ago!
The implementation of land reform is truly a great deed! I heard that the Marshal had prepared for a rainy day and had set up a military grain workshop in advance, which just happened to come in handy this time! In order to thank the Marshal for his foresight, the king will surely place additional orders in the future..."
Kashen smiled and nodded, then continued, "Today's Shadowmoon City has gradually regained its former prosperity. There are a large number of cattle and sheep in the suburbs. I believe that the production capacity in the future will be able to meet the needs of the army.
When I went back last time, the eight thousand pairs of slaves I bought had already obtained the status of freemen and had established their own families. They were specially arranged to engage in herding work, in order to provide sufficient beef and mutton.
Secondly, I hope they can live and work in peace and contentment. Calculating the time, they should have children by now! The population of Shadowmoon City is also slowly recovering..."
The two chatted enthusiastically for more than two hours, covering a wide range of topics. It can be seen that the empire is gradually recovering, especially in the areas actually controlled by the empire, where tax revenue is considerable and the people are truly living a peaceful and prosperous life.
However, at this moment, the topic suddenly changed and mentioned Blainey. Kashin told the other party that Blainey was working hard to complete her studies and fight for her future. She didn't want to get involved in the excitement here.
"What a pity, it's difficult for us master and disciple to meet each other now! Oh! She is really busy. She has her own magic tower in just a few years! It's really amazing..."
Mr. Zaire smiled and said, "Miss Blaney is very busy right now. Although this war has nothing to do with her, she will still contribute supplies and money. The higher-ups are very determined this time!"
After bowing to Zaire, Instructor Bayan said, "Excuse me, why did you decide to attack the Zaun Empire? I'd like to hear the details. Could you please explain the deeper meaning behind it and what we should pay attention to?"
Zaire smiled bitterly and said, "We don't know either. We are restricted from leaving the Demon Association. The higher-ups don't say a word about military movements, so even if we know, we can't talk about it. Sorry!"
Kashin nodded and said: "Advisor Bayan, military secrets cannot be inquired. I know nothing about it at the moment and have no idea at all..."
Bayan shrugged and said: "Okay! Just drink. I'll toast you two. Let's just treat it as a casual chat today..."
Amidst the laughter and joy, battle mages from all over the world appeared in the Magic Association of Chester Kingdom one after another, and a war was about to break out...
