After a while, the two wizards finished their report and walked back with relieved smiles on their faces.
"Are you the village chief?" Fair pointed at Fann, his judgment quite accurate.
Fann had a little idea in his mind and nodded calmly: "Yes."
"Let me put it this way." Fell raised his hand and touched his chin. "Duogu Village was originally the territory of Lord Knapton, but now Lord Knapton has given it to another lord. That lord is affiliated with the Brilliant Throne."
"We will leave the symbol of the Radiant Throne in your village later to indicate your village's affiliation." Fell raised one corner of his lip. "There is one thing you need to know. The Broken River Plain has been divided up by the forces under the Thirteen Thrones. No one has been spared. With the symbol of your power, no other forces will invade your village. It can be considered a kind of protection. However, before the people of the Radiant Throne come to receive you, you'd better not leave this village."
"Because there is no bracelet?" asked Fann.
"That's right. People without bracelets are free, and freedom means they can attack and capture at will. Whoever catches it owns it." Feier looked at him in admiration, "Don't underestimate how precious you are."
He lowered his voice meaningfully and said, "You are priceless and invaluable. All wizards dream of having you."
“Don’t go out, don’t be alone.” He slowed down his voice, emphasizing each word, “I don’t want this place to become an empty village when the people from the Radiant Throne arrive.”
Vane smiled bitterly in his heart. How could he not know that they were priceless treasures? How could a big drunkard like Derek be coveted by wizards? Just thinking about that scene, goosebumps almost fell all over the floor, okay?
"Fell, why are you telling him this?" Benedict said dissatisfiedly, "It's enough for us to leave a mark for the Brilliant Throne. Why are you meddling in other people's business?"
Fel smiled and waved his hands: "I am just worried that they will all run out and be caught by people from other thrones. When that lord comes and sees a deserted village, will he think that we, the Red Throne, are playing a trick on him?"
Benedict was speechless.
"Of course, except for this kid." Fell raised his chin and gestured to Ash, "He has the mark of that adult on his body. It is a stronger relationship than the bracelet. No one will attack him wherever he goes - well, unless he meets the enemy of that adult."
Ash was thinking that Lord Knapton gave Duogu Village to the "Rebel of the Sea of Stars", which meant that their Duogu Village would be the territory of that young man in the future?
If Duogu Village must become the territory of a certain force or a certain person, then the young man under the moonlight is the best choice in his heart.
If it's that person, Duogu Village will be safe.
Thinking of this, his dimples appeared faintly. Now, when he heard Feier say "a relationship stronger than a bracelet", he opened his eyes wide in surprise, and his dimples jumped out with joy.
"I'm giving you some advice." Feier put away the tables and chairs he had taken out earlier and walked slowly towards the village entrance. "If you commit suicide, that's your own business."
Benedict walked beside him, frowning. "Fell, since the territory has been transferred out, this place has nothing to do with us. Hurry up and set up the sign, so that we can catch up with the team and go to the next village earlier. The number of registered people is linked to our mission evaluation! Don't waste time on such a useless place!"
"You're such an impatient person." Feier glanced at him, "I'm just about to do it, right?"
They walked towards the village entrance, and the villagers they met on the way made way for them like Moses parting the sea.
The villagers were far away and did not hear clearly what they just said. They only saw the two wizards gesticulating in front of Vane and Ash for a long time without putting the bracelets on them. After fiddling with it for a while, they started walking towards the village.
I was totally confused. What happened? What was going on?
The eyes of the whole village were on Fell and Benedict.
The two men seemed not to notice anything. They took out a pure white flag from the small bag on their waists and stuck it at the entrance of the village. The flag fluttered in the wind, and the flagpole suddenly rose more than ten meters high. The flag spread out like the wings of a giant eagle.
Seeing such a magical sight, the villagers were no longer surprised. After all, they had experienced too much today, black ships in the sky, explosions of flowing light, flying humans... Compared with these, what was so strange about a flag that could grow taller and taller?
We have all seen big scenes.
However, when the pure white flag transformed into a starry sky-like pattern in the space of a few breaths, the villagers, who had been almost numb with surprise, could not help but let out low sighs.
There is no other reason, the flag with black background and silver stars is so beautiful. The limited area depicts the boundless galaxy, vast and magnificent. The stars on the flag seem to be alive, flickering and rotating. At first glance, you almost get lost in the galaxy.
The moment I was mesmerized at first sight, the only word that came to my mind was: dazzling.
Ash was also stunned, is this the symbol of the Brilliant Throne?
So beautiful!
Just like... just like his dreams every night.
Therefore, although he understood that the flag planted at the entrance of the village was actually a strong invasion, Ash couldn't help but like it.
"Remember this flag." Fell faced the crowd with a serious look and raised his voice, "It belongs to one of the 'Thirteen Thrones', the Radiant Throne."
There is no need to remember it deliberately, this flag has been deeply engraved in everyone's heart.
"Well then - finally, I wish you all good luck."
Fair looked around at everyone and his eyes finally fell on Ash. He seemed to smile, then took off into the air again, flying towards the sky and into the distance with Benedict.
They left.
The villagers were confused and stood there looking into the distance, trying to make sure whether the two had really left. Some of them gathered towards Vann and Ash, wanting to know what had just happened.
Ash stood there in a daze, and it seemed that Fair's meaningful laughter was still lingering in his ears.
"Ash, Sigourney asked me to give you his regards."
Before Fair left, Ash "heard" his voice, which rang directly in his mind, just like the Black Ship's declaration before.
Ash wondered confusedly why would Fair say this to him?
What does this mean? Who is Sigourney? Does he know this girl?
***
"Sigourney!"
In the library on the top floor of the wizard tower, Nance pushed open the heavy door with a "bang" and strode in, with the silky corners of his robe curling up like waves.
In the dark room with thick curtains drawn, bright lights came on one after another as the voice sounded.
Under the warm light, Sigourney was lying on a spacious long wooden table in the middle, her limbs spread out relaxedly, sleeping soundly.
He read all night last night, and when the sun rose, he was too lazy to go back to his room, so he simply swept the pen holder and papers on the wooden table aside, lay down on the table, and fell asleep comfortably - he didn't mind at all that the table was too hard, after all, no matter how hard it was, it couldn't be harder than his bones and flesh.
Unfortunately, I was woken up by Nance after sleeping for less than half a day.
"You'd better be okay." Sigourney sat up from the table, put one hand on her bent knee, half-closed her eyes, and looked down at Nance condescendingly.
Nance was already used to his arrogant bossy look and simply ignored him.
"Of course there is something wrong, but it's a good thing." He said with a smile, "Remember your contract partner? The child is fine now."
"Oh? Is it the same old story of the stars blessing you?" Sigourney sneered, biting her lower lip dangerously with her fangs. "You woke me up for this? Nance, you'd better prepare breakfast for me, otherwise I don't mind tasting your stale blood."
"Of course not." Nans was still not angry and in a good mood, "I arranged people to help them."
Sigourney sneered, "Your kindhearted and soft-hearted grandfather persona is really not broken."
"No, no, no. This time I'm using your name, Sigourney." Nance laughed, "I told Phil that you care about the child and need his help."
"What?" Sigourney frowned in uneasiness.
"So, congratulations, with the help of Fair, you now own a territory from today on." Nance announced in the same rhythmic aria as the one used by the Starry Sky Theater. "Sigourney - Duogu Village is now your territory."
"What!"
"Duogu Village in Broken River Plains, the village where we killed Rachel, the village where your contract partner is, is now your territory." Nance repeated it elegantly, reminding him of a few key points to remember.
"Nance, what on earth did you do!" Sigourney opened her eyes wide in disbelief, then suddenly jumped up from the table and walked to Nance with a few big strides. Her momentum was particularly terrifying, "Damn it! Who told you to act on your own!"
Nan Si remained calm and withstood his violent momentum, pretending to be puzzled and asked, "Half a month ago, I told you that the boy was probably in danger. Wasn't your expression very complicated? Wasn't that worry? I thought your silence that day meant you wanted to help him?"
"Worry?!" Sigourney's voice almost popped out from between her teeth. "Is your reading of people's expressions zero? Absolutely zero!"
"I don't know." Nance smiled brightly. "Wizarding Academy doesn't test this subject. But by the way, I got excellent grades in all my subjects back then, so I guess even if I add this one, it won't be an exception, right?"
After saying that, he turned around and ran, jumping faster than a rabbit. His body was so agile that he didn't look like an old man at all.
Wow, Sigourney is going to get angry! If the aura behind her could be materialized, it would have formed a terrifying demon king, right? The kind with its head against the ceiling and its body swollen to an incomparable size!
Nance laughed in his heart, never mind, it seems like this is too exciting, so I won’t tell him yet. I also asked Fair to convey his greetings to the young boy.
As we are contractual partners, how can we not maintain a good relationship with each other?
The author has something to say: Nance: Make trouble, make trouble! Hahahaha!
