Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

"The Supreme Master agreed to secretly arrange a team of mages specializing in teleportation magic among the Sword Saints of Hoth sent to the empire."

North, who knew many secrets, knew that the break between the Prince and the Supreme Mage in the Grand Council was just a superficial phenomenon. The two big figures would always negotiate together to guide the future direction of Ulthuan on an inconspicuous night.

Of course, North had no idea what was specifically discussed. He only knew that the relationship between the two might be far closer than anyone imagined.

This time, the logistics force will break the conventional war thinking. The main method of transportation is to use magic and manpower as auxiliary and emergency means.

Among them, Saveri's support is a very critical link.

"Very good, very good. As expected, Teclis never disappoints me." Imrik nodded in praise, obviously very pleased, but in the blink of an eye he thought of a scandal and added something casually,

"Except for the stupid thing of bringing a Phoenix Stone to the battlefield in Fenouir Plain and letting the Witch King escape."

Not commenting on big shots, this is what a person who performs the duty of speaking on behalf of others must do. North tried his best not to consider the stains on Tigris and only reminded the prince of relevant details of important events.

"Do you need to urge the Supreme Mage to hurry up? Savri's efficiency may not be as efficient as you think."

"Well, sure, I hope his brain won't be turned into paste in his dreams and he can still stay awake during the day, hahaha..."

Facing the illogical words when the prince left, the herald silently deleted them in his mind.

After mentally reciting what he had to do today, he returned to a secret place in the mansion that had multiple protections, and locked the important documents in a meteorite box secured by three runes.

This meteorite iron box is specially made. If someone other than him opens it, the incineration magic inside will be triggered first, turning everything in it to ashes.

And secondly, it will directly trigger the alarm system of the mansion, and the positioning ritual wrapped in the outer layer will lock the location of the person who stole the secret in the eyes of Minas Nir.

The herald found one of the many unmarked magic stones in the room. He adjusted the order of these magic stones every day, most of which were used to confuse the audience.

Once an outsider uses it without authorization, the person connected to the other end is either Caledor's elimination agency or a mage who specializes in the wind of Agil.

The process of activating the magic stone is also very cumbersome under his own supervision. The herald first cuts his finger, drops the blood into a container, pours some powdered objects, water and magic potion, and then uses a special convenient spray Firearms, heating vessels.

Purple smoke gradually rises from the internal mixture in the high temperature. After finishing the wound on his fingertip, North holds the magic stone above the vessel. The gas evaporated from the blood and mixture will activate the talisman on it. Wen, connected to the White Tower of Hoth where the Supreme Master is.

As Imrik's mouthpiece, he needed to contact countless big figures, and even more contacts with the palace's subordinate organizations. But for each person and each organization, North had a set of mixture encryption methods with different proportions.

After a burst of purple smoke, the original magic stone was unremarkable, and the Eye of Hoss logo appeared in the center, indicating that the connection had been established.

"Speak, North, I hope your words are more interesting than your prince."

There was an indescribable sense of exhaustion in Teclis' tone. After Imrik turned all his attention to the old world, the Supreme Mage alone became responsible for dealing with the Moon Goddess and the Phoenix King in Ulthuan. Try to create a situation that is mutually satisfactory to both parties.

If he said it didn't take up energy, it would be false, but when he thought of the omens that appeared in his dream, the Supreme Mage only felt deeply frightened.

North is obviously a person who doesn't understand what jokes are, or he doesn't like to joke with others during work.

"I hope my previous words did not offend you, Your Majesty the Supreme Mage, otherwise why would I say such unreasonable words."

His attitude was not humble, but it was still respectful. This made Tigris miss his former herald. At least that boy dared to talk bad about himself, which was much more interesting than a tool man. "If you can change this false tone into the arrogant attitude that the Dragon Prince usually uses, maybe the Dragon Prince can also arrange for you to be the Grand Master of some kind of knighthood."

"I am not the Dragon Prince. The false tone you think of is a duty that I must fulfill at work."

An undisguised sigh came from the Philosopher's Stone. Perhaps Teclis, who was calm and silent by nature, was helpless with this mechanical answer.

But North's father was a war hero. If he really wanted to verbally insult him, would he be too dismissive of the warriors who died on the battlefield?

"Let's not mention these useless things. The purpose of your contacting me."

"Your Highness hopes that you will arrange for people to come to the old world as soon as possible."

"So Draknir finally issued a war mobilization order?"

Regarding how the Supreme Mage knew this secret, North chose to remain silent. He would never reveal a word about unrelated matters, even if the two were deeply connected.

Teclis, who got results from silence, also chose silence. It seemed that he, far away in Ulthuan, was thinking about the stakes.

After a long while, Teclis finally took the initiative to break the deadlock. In other words, the Supreme Mage did not take the communication with the herald as a serious matter and just talked about whatever came to mind.

"Compared with this matter, I am more concerned about the intelligence you obtained from the people who looted Tilea villages and towns."

He doesn’t like to speculate too much, so North makes it clear,

"This has nothing to do with this matter. The purpose of my contacting you this time is to inquire about the speed of the arrangement of the Sword Master Hess."

"But I think it's relevant, Herald North. You have a lot of information in your hands, but you don't know how to use it. It's like a machine that responds only when someone presses the switch, but you don't know the value of its own existence."

After thinking about it for some time, North decided that he couldn't make the decision on this matter.

"My duties prevent me from agreeing. If you want to obtain detailed information about the plunderers, please ask the prince to issue relevant instructions."

"Responsibility... As expected, Caledo is said to be a group of stone heads..."

After some time, North thought Teclis cut off communications, leaving only an Eye of Hoth to show his dissatisfaction.

But the Supreme Mage cared more about efficiency and rules than he did. The magic stone he carried lit up, and the order from the prince stated that he could obtain relevant reports from Phyllis and tell Tigris all about them.

The magic stone with the Eye of Hoth made a sound again, and this time there was a bit of malice in Tigris' calm tone.

"I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer this time, Herald North."

"it is my responsibility……"

After finishing the exchange, North changed the location of the magic stone without any trouble. If someone told him that the relationship between the Supreme Mage and the Dragon Prince was very inconsistent, maybe the final truth would make Duru, who specializes in conspiracy and betrayal, Everyone was scared to death.
