Master Tongtian

Chapter 378 When the sun rises, the moment of triumphant return (13)

Two hours after the Battle of Sea Breeze Valley.

The news that the Marine Legion was defeated and more than 20,000 casualties were reported back to Baisha City shocked the whole city, and everyone in the five major Baisha families was even more frightened.

The first feeling is that I can’t believe it.

According to a survey before the war started, the number of Storm Alliance troops was less than 10,000, while the Ocean Legion had 30,000 people.

Three against one, the regular elite fought against a group of miscellaneous soldiers who had been organized for less than two months, and they even took advantage of the location of the Sea Breeze Fortress, and they were defeated!

Not to mention the defeat, even the fortress was occupied.

With the battle strength stretched like this, what qualifications does Baisha City have to be called the second largest city in the East?

What qualifications do the five major families have to covet the interests of Nutao City?

Whether you can protect yourself or not is a question.

Therefore, the five major families headed by the Langley family immediately held a White Sands Alliance meeting to discuss the next action plan.

The venue is located in the dark blue hall of the Lord's Palace in Baisha City.

All the decorations in the main hall are mainly dark blue. There is a row of horizontal seats on the highest platform, with five great mages sitting on them.

The realms of these five archmages are not very high, ranging from level four to level seven. None of them is a peak mage.

However, there is a family crest made of immortal gold hanging on his chest, which represents his noble origin.

They are the heads of the five major families in Baisha and the five most powerful people in Baisha City.

In contrast, the Lord of Baisha City, who was regarded as superior by the people, was not even qualified to enter the palace to observe.

Below the horizontal seats are two rows of vertical seats, one on the left and one on the right. There are also great masters sitting on them, 37 on the left and 36 on the right. The seats are almost full.

These people are all great mages, the pinnacle of the 11 million people in Baisha City.

Among them are four peak mages. Coincidentally, these four peak mages are all from minor nobles or common people.

Because if you want to achieve the achievement of a peak archmage, you must have strong talent support. No matter how much and strong the acquired support is, it will be difficult to break through such a bottleneck.

As soon as everyone sat down and the meeting started, a level 2 archmage from the Green family shouted from the bottom of the hall.

"Why don't you apologize to the Mage Alliance first?!"

Upon hearing this, there was a lot of discussion in the palace, but no one raised any objection.

Although everyone thinks that the alliance is a mud-legged organization, and they despise it in their hearts, who can let them fight?

The patriarch of the Langley family and the current president of the alliance, Amidra Langley slammed the table hard.

"Why panic?!"

He is 45 years old, in the prime of life, and is a level 7 ocean mage, the strongest mage among the direct members of the five major families.

His will was as firm as steel, and his eyes were filled with bright blue light at this time.

"The Storm Alliance has not yet reached Baisha City. Even if they do, is the 30-meter-high guard wall of our Baisha City just a decoration?!"

When he said this, the impetuous people calmed down a lot.

Amidra looked at his eldest son Yuragon.

"Tell me about your battlefield investigation results."

The handsome and handsome Yoragang stood up from his seat at the end, walked to the middle of the hall, looked around everyone, and a bright blue light appeared in his eyes, showing his extremely powerful magic power.

All the masters were shocked when they saw it.

Someone asked: "Yuragon, you have broken through to the master realm?"

Yulagang is only 29 this year, and he actually broke through the master cliff a year earlier than the Archmage Burning Sky. This talent is simply unbelievable.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will probably become a peak mage in the future.

The top mage from the five major families is undoubtedly the mage leader of Baisha City.

Yuragon smiled lightly: "It's just luck."

He immediately got to the point.

"After careful and thorough battlefield investigation and comprehensive all surrounding information, I came to three conclusions."

"First, the reason why the Storm Alliance has such terrifying combat effectiveness is because they introduced a brand new magical weapon called a gun."

"Second, the principle of this powerful combat weapon is to throw rune stones at high speed and frequency. It originated from the Crescent Territory in the North and was invented by the Golden Baron, who is now the God-given Earl of White Whale Island, Rosen."

"Third, the Storm Alliance's guns and rune stones were all purchased from White Whale Island."

When he said this, everyone immediately started talking.

After a while, someone asked: "Since it is a magical weapon, can we make it?"

Juragon nodded.

"It can definitely be made, but we currently don't have samples on hand, and we don't have sufficiently skilled weapon refining mages. If we want to create a mature product, it will take at least several months of exploration."

"And the threat on the battlefield is imminent, so I propose that we urgently go to Beluga Island to buy a batch of guns and arm our Marine Legion first."

As soon as he finished speaking, a person snorted coldly.

"We can buy it, and so can the Storm Alliance."

"Then everyone buys this new magic weapon. In the end, Rosen will make a lot of money, while we use the weapons he made to kill each other."

"In my opinion, it is better to form an elite force, go to Beluga Island in the middle of the night, and use magic to blow up the magic weapon workshop and weapon refining master of Beluga Island to ashes, so as to prevent this guy from the north from lying on us and sucking blood!"

The person who spoke was not a simple person. His name was Godel. Although he was born a commoner, he had the achievements of a peak mage.

Many people nodded in agreement with his words.

"Master Godel is right. You can't take advantage of the kid from the North. You have to teach him a lesson and let him know that we people from the East are not easy to bully!"

"That's the truth!"

The peak mage Godel received support and turned to look at the high platform.

"Master Amidra, what do you think?!"

Alamed Langley nodded slowly: "What you said makes perfect sense. We really cannot allow a northerner to make such a war fortune!"

Juragon nodded in agreement.

"Then since you plan to do this, you must act quickly! Otherwise, with Master Rosen's shrewdness, he will definitely be on guard. If it takes a little longer, it will definitely be difficult to handle."

Another representative of the Green family asked: "What about the Storm Alliance forces in Seawind Fortress?"

Master Godel sneered.

"Didn't Yuragon say that this kind of gun needs rune stones to be powerful? Rune stones are consumables. Once they are used up, the gun will be useless."

"The Storm Alliance will definitely save their money and most likely won't take the initiative to attack. Therefore, let him occupy the Sea Breeze Fortress first."

"We just need to get some sample guns and copy them. With the resources of Baisha City, we can easily make thousands of guns. Then we can attack and take back the Sea Breeze Fortress. Wouldn't it be easy?"

This makes sense, and everyone nodded.

Yuragon had no objection. He added: "You must make guns quickly. I believe that Raging Wave City is also imitating them and is already ahead of us."

Hearing this, Amidra Langley and the other four major family patriarchs discussed in a low voice before finally making a decision.

"Then there are three lines."

"The first one is to apologize to the Alliance and stabilize the other party first."

"Second, set up our own gun-making workshop immediately and go all out to make guns!"

"Third, immediately form a mage raiding legion and destroy the weapon refining workshop on Beluga Island overnight."

The peak mage Godel immediately stood up and walked to the center of the hall.

"Master Amidra, if you trust me, I will form a raiding legion, bring a group of archmages, and endless mana cores. We will go north tonight and quietly raid White Whale Island in the early morning!"

Amidela showed a hint of joy and praised loudly.

"Okay~ Master Godel, if this thing is done, you will not only be the hero of our Baisha City, but also the hero of the East! Baisha City will definitely repay you for your contribution."

Godel's face was full of excitement, but deep down he felt a little emotional.

Although he is a peak mage, he comes from a commoner background. His family does not have many assets and members. The future of the family almost entirely depends on him.

Originally, with his magical achievements, he shouldn't have gone to the battlefield and fought tooth and nail.

But he still has some bottom line, unlike the other three peak mages, who quietly killed his young wife for the sake of his future and became the son-in-law of the five major families.

Since there is no marriage with the five major families to seek glory, the only way is to fight on the battlefield in exchange for glory.

For the sake of his family's happiness and the future of his children, he decided to fight for it.

At this time, with Amidela's support, he stood in the hall and shouted: "Who is willing to follow me north to Beluga Island overnight?"

After shouting several times, some people stood up and a total of 13 archmages came out.

Among them, 3 were from minor nobles and 10 were from civilians. Their situations were all similar to Godel's, and they all wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to gain a future for their family.

As for the other fifty or so great mages, they either came from the five major families, or were related to the five major families. Their lives were precious, and they would naturally not do such a dangerous thing where their lives were at stake.

Godel was not surprised by this, and the sneak attack by 14 archmages overnight was enough to reduce the weapon refining workshop in a small place like Beluga Island to ashes.

So he looked at Master Amidela on the high platform.

"Master, please give me the core of endless mana."

After the Endless Mana Core was announced, nobles throughout the Golden Land were trying to build it, and naturally the same was true for White Sand City.

Coincidentally, a divine iron vein was discovered near Baisha City, so they quickly mined and researched it.

According to the shape shown by Rosen, a group of weapon refining masters pondered for several months and made countless attempts, and finally accumulated some usable endless mana cores after repeated failures.

Although the performance is still far inferior to the endless mana core announced by Rosen, it is already available.

The one with the best performance has 6 times the feedback, and the one with the worst performance has about 3 times.

However, all the sacred iron veins, all core-making technology, and the final finished core are in the hands of the five major families.

Let alone research, civilian mages can't even see a single Fusa of divine iron.

But at this time, these civilian mages are required to work hard. Not only the overnight attack, but also the subsequent blowing up of the workshop, they naturally need to provide sufficient support.

Amidra quickly discussed it with several surrounding clan leaders, and then said: "We will give you a divine iron core, and you and your group can take turns using it to replenish your mana."

"Be sure to use it carefully, don't damage the core."

It’s not that I don’t want to give more, I really can’t afford it.

After a few months, six usable Shentie cores were produced, one of which had excellent performance, and the rest had ordinary performance.

You can't give out all six of them, right?

If the mission fails and the core is lost, it will be a huge loss.

But one is enough.

After all, in addition to the core, he will also bring many traditional magic weapons and take various combat potions, which is enough to greatly increase the power of a group of archmages.

Godel nodded his thanks.

"Thank you Master Langley for your support. When the sun rises tomorrow, it will be the moment of our triumphant return!"

From May 1st to 5th, four updates per day.
