Fantasy journey to the heavens

Chapter 74 The Wizard
"As for this issue, it's actually very simple."

Faced with the inquiries from everyone present, Earl Thorne always smiled.

Under the gaze of the people around him, he stood up, then clapped his hands and walked aside: "Next, let's see our master explain it to us."

Grandmaster?

Everyone present was confused.

They looked forward, looking in the direction pointed by Earl Thorne.

After a moment, there, a figure slowly walked out.

What walked out was a young man who looked very young. He was covered in a black robe, covering most of his body.

He walked out from the side and seemed to have been standing there for a long time. His face looked a little pale and dark under the lights around the hall, as if there was no blood at all.

"This one is the master we invited this time."

Earl Thorne smiled and explained to everyone present: "You can sit here, I think there must be relevant records in the family."

The people below did not speak, but their faces became serious at this moment, as if they had thought of something.

Earl Thorne had no intention of selling out.

He said directly: "Yes, this one is the master who came from Lane, and he is also a real wizard."

wizard?

As soon as this name came out, everyone present was in an uproar.

Their expressions varied, some were thoughtful, some looked disdainful, and some looked solemn.

Katim, sitting at the bottom, also felt a sense of surprise at this moment.

"wizard."

Katim's face was calm, and various thoughts flashed through his mind: "In this world, there are actually existences similar to mages."

When he first came to this world, he was very interested in some extraordinary powers existing in this world.

Mages are also a type of people that exist in many legends in this world.

It's just that compared to knights, the profession of mage seems to be much rarer, at least Katim has not seen it around.

He once asked Rigg about this matter, but Rigg didn't know it either.

Katim was still wondering whether there really was a profession like a mage in this world, but unexpectedly he met one.

He couldn't help but raise his head and look at the young man in front of him, with some scrutiny in his eyes.

Next to Earl Thorne, the young man stood quietly, facing the gaze of everyone below, his face was quite calm, and he seemed not to care about the people around him at all.

As a wizard, he looks very young. He seems to be less than 30 years old now, and he looks ordinary on the surface.

But looking at Earl Thorne's respectful look, it was obvious that this man was not as simple as he seemed.

"My name is Sean. I'm here this time to help you deal with this plague."

On the high platform, the young man said calmly: "I have received some specific news. This incident cannot be solved by ordinary people, so I was specially sent here."

"It cannot be solved by ordinary people"

Below, the middle-aged man who had spoken earlier looked disdainful: "Could it be that you are not a mortal?"

"In a way, yes."

Sean said calmly: "In the next period of time, I hope that you can cooperate and obey my orders carefully."

"If you perform well, I will also give you some appropriate rewards in the future."

"You are the Lord?"

The disdain on the middle-aged man's face became even more obvious: "Why?"

"What's so great about you that makes me worthy of obeying your orders?"

"Mr. Enry."

Seeing that the scene was frozen, Earl Thorne had to come out to smooth things over: "Mr. Sean is my guest."

"So what?"

The middle-aged man continued to speak, but he didn't even give Earl Thorne's face: "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking, and I plan to use us to charge you?"

"Don't even think about it!"

"Being able to respond to your signs is already my limit. Now you want me to follow the orders of a madman?"

Everyone around looked at Earl Thorne, with a look of amusement on their faces.

It is true that they are the lords of the kingdom, but they have no affiliation with Earl Thorne.

As lords, they have great autonomy, and they have the strength of knights. They can completely ignore Earl Thorne as long as they want.

After all, their strength is not weak, even Earl Thorne would not dare to attack them easily.

Now that Enri has said this, they also want to know how Earl Thorne will respond next.

On the high platform, Earl Thorne stood there. He seemed very annoyed when faced with Baron Enri's rude words, but he did not dare to say anything more. He looked like he wanted to reprimand but did not dare to say anything more.

Katim sat aside and frowned as he watched this scene.

What kind of script is this?
Although the contact time was not long, he already had a certain understanding of Count Thorne.

The other party does not look like the easily angry person in front of him, but is actually a very sophisticated person.

In addition, Katim has spent the past few days more or less inquiring about the several lords present.

The Baron Enri who spoke just now was not at odds with Earl Thorne.

In this area, the opponent can be said to be one of the main opponents of Earl Thorne, and can be called the leader of the opponents.

Regarding this kind of opponent, Earl Thorne clearly knew that the opponent would never cooperate with him, but he still called the opponent here, and even deliberately contributed to the current situation.

What does he want to do?
All sorts of thoughts ran through Katim's mind.He looked at Sean standing aside.

After being contradicted by Enli like this, Sean was still the same as before, with a dull expression, as if he didn't care about anything.

However, if you look closely, you will find that there is still a slight change in this person's expression, and he still looks a little annoyed.

Murder with a knife?
Maybe there are some other purposes involved.

Katim was lost in thought.

Ahead, Earl Thorne's voice sounded again.

"I'll ask you again!"

Earl Thorne's face turned red and he seemed very angry: "Are you willing to obey Mr. Sean's order?"

This is deliberately intensifying conflicts.

Katim sighed.

If Earl Thorne really wanted the people present to obey his orders, he shouldn't be so direct.

The correct way should be to talk in detail in private, negotiate the terms one by one, and then announce them in a formal setting after they have been discussed in private.

Direct orders like this will only arouse dissatisfaction and resentment from other people present.

After all, they are not Earl Thorne's subordinates, and many of them are even at odds with Earl Thorne themselves.

It's strange that he doesn't promise benefits in private and is so disrespectful in public. It's strange to force them to obey orders and cooperate.

plague?

What does this have to do with them?
They are high-ranking lords, and all of them are powerful. They are the strongest among the nearby lords. No matter how dangerous the plague is, can it still affect them?
As for the civilians at the bottom, if they die, they will die. Anyway, another wave will come out in a few years.

As long as the strength and territory remain, there will be many refugees out there who are willing to take refuge.

Moreover, the other party also transferred the conflict.

It was obvious that these people present were targeting Earl Thorne, but he chose to do so in the name of Wizard Sean.

It was as if these people were targeting Wizard Xien.
Katim couldn't help but have doubts.

Sure enough, the next moment he fell into silence.

The lords present looked at Earl Thorne in front of them. They just sat there and looked at him without any other reaction.

It looked like he didn't hear what Earl Thorne said.

Wizard Sean stood aside, his face still cold at this moment, but the fists in his hands couldn't help but clenched tighter.

At this time, there was already some murderous intent in his eyes.

It looks like you want to take action?
The atmosphere there couldn't help but become awkward.

Until a voice broke the silence.

"My Lord Earl is right."

In the hall, Katim's voice suddenly sounded.

He stood up from where he was, looking at Sean in front of him, his face full of sincerity: "Solving the plague is our most important thing at the moment."

"I am willing to obey Lord Sean's orders."

He looked respectful and bowed slightly: "As long as your Excellency has orders, all the forces in Katim territory can be mobilized for Your Majesty, and there will never be any refusal."

Katim jumped out and immediately became the first to express his stance.

no way.

Katim has been observing the surroundings and clearly saw that some people present had made some movements.

Obviously, someone here has the same idea as him, and is ready to stand up and support the other party when he is most embarrassed, and to gain a lot of favor.

It seems that some people present are aware of the other party's extraordinaryness and are ready to step forward and speculate at this critical moment to leave a good impression on the other party.

Since you want to express your stance, it must be the first one who expresses your stance the best, can leave the deepest impression, and has the best sense.

Waiting until others have finished expressing their opinions before posting them, the effect will not be so good.

Sure enough, after Katim expressed his stance, there were expressions of astonishment on the faces of people around him.

They didn't seem to expect that there were people here who had the same idea as them.

With Katim taking the lead, they immediately stood up without any hesitation.

"We are also willing to obey Sir Sean's orders."

As Katim expressed his stance, two more of the eight lords sitting in the hall stood up and expressed their stance in public.

Sean's expression softened slightly and he regained his composure.

"very good."

A smile appeared on Earl Thorn's face again: "Kadim, Sanger, Gepa, you are very good."

"In the next period of time, you should follow Mr. Sean and prepare for subsequent actions."

"As for Mr. Enry, I am very disappointed in you."

A banquet ended in a quarrel.

The whole time, Lord Thorne was arguing with another group of people, trying to convince this group of people.

But obviously, the final result was not good.

In the end, both groups dispersed.

After the banquet, Sean was alone and silently turned around and left.

"Mr. Sean!" A voice came from behind.
