Chapter 133: Expedition, at the Northernmost Region!

Chapter 133 Expedition, at the Northernmost Region!

In the forest, once the King of the Forest, the Tiger died, what would the wolves who were once afraid of it do?

Would they go and pay respect to him?

No.

Together they will attack the weak offspring of the Tiger!

Especially when they discovered that the offspring of the Tiger were weaker than themselves. They would directly skin them alive and drink their blood!

They would pay back the humiliation that the Tiger had given them!

And this…

Was the true humanity of the Northdark emissaries at this time.

That’s right.

There were indeed many fanatical fans of Gandalf among the Northdark emissaries.

However, if you worshipped a hero, and one day, this hero died, his beautiful widow was left alone in the world. Would you refrain from having any improper thoughts about this beautiful woman?

No.

You would only think that you were a b*stard should you not take the advantage.

You would only think that you should keep the benefits to yourself.

You would only think that, even if you didn’t do it, others would.

You would only think that, instead of letting others take the advantage, you might as well take yourself.

This was the thinking of all the Northdark emissaries at this moment.

After all, the easternmost region had really declined.

Then, even if they didn’t invade it, others would.

For example, the southernmost region…

For example, the easternmost region…

For example, the Central Plain…

In the past, Gandalf’s seal had sealed at the roads leading to these places.

However, now that the seal had been broken, the mainland would soon face a new round of competition.

At that time, as to the winner of this new competition among the five regions, most likely the key to victory would be the one who first acquired the foundation of the East!

The Patriarch William’s simple words had made all the Northdark emissaries open their minds.

Those who were able to stand out from the tens of thousands of magi and become the Northdark emissaries were not fools.

Everyone could deduce from Patriarch William’s few words that a new round of change in the mainland was coming.

It was very likely that all of them would benefit from this change that hadn’t happened in hundred years.

Thinking of this, who would be willing to give away the benefits that were about to come?

No one was a fool.

Since there were benefits to be garnered, everyone would naturally be at the front line.

It was precisely because of this that everyone walked out of the crowd and asked for battle.

“Very good, everyone is indeed the pillar of our Northdark Sect. Our Northdark Sect has people who are willing to sacrifice their lives for justice. Why would we worry about our sect not thriving? Hmm? hahahaha!”

The Patriarch William stroked his beard and laughed loudly.

Then, he voiced out his thoughts regarding this diplomatic mission:

“This diplomatic mission to the East is the first time in our Northdark Sect in 500 years.”

“Under the circumstances where we aren’t very clear about the strength of the East…”

“I’ve decided that this diplomatic mission will be led by William Saul of the William Family. What do all of you think?”

William Saul?

Hearing this name, many people were stunned.

It seemed that the Patriarch really valued this diplomatic mission!

William Saul…

Was known as the number one person under William VII in the William Family!

He was now 620 years old.

He was already a first rank High Magus.

He could definitely be considered one of the top five experts in the northernmost.

And the Patriarch William had already made his attitude clear by sending him to lead the team:

It was definitely not as simple as just a diplomatic mission.

As the diplomatic mission to the easternmost, which only had the first rank Great Sage, did not need to send such an expert.

There was only one reason for sending William Saul:

The Patriarch William had other motive!

And what was his motive…

Thinking back to 500 years ago, the history of the northernmost region being oppressed by the easternmost region, one could be roughly guessed:

This time, the Patriarch… was on diplomatic mission on the surface, but he actually wanted to plunder!

To plunder the easternmost region!

Just like what the easternmost region did to them 500 years ago.

And once they plundered, it would be a good time to make a fortune.

Everyone was thinking along the same line.

Then, they raised their heads with excitement, waiting for the leader’s new envoy list.

At this moment, everyone was looking forward to becoming a member of this envoy.

Soon after they heard the Patriarch William issue an order.

“Apart from William Saul, the members of this envoy are as follows.”

“Two Great Sages of the eighth rank: The two Zog brothers from the Zog Family.”

“Three Great Sages of the fifth rank: The three Jack brothers!”

“Four Great Sages of the first rank: The four knights of the Lanchester Family!”

“There are a total of 10 people.”

“Step out!”

Following the Patriarch’s order, the Zog brothers, the three Jack brothers, and the four knights of the Lanchester Family, the nine of them walked out from the crowd.

They were all members of the Northdark emissary.

On the high platform, a tall man slowly walked out from the back of the Patriarch William.

That person was William Saul.

William Saul, a first rank High Magus, he was no longer a Northdark emissary, but one of the sect’s guardians.

Previously, he had been guarding within a hundred meters of the Patriarch William.

At this moment, hearing the Patriarch’s order, he slowly walked out.

The ten people then stood in front of the platform.

They all knelt and worshiped, shouting, “Patriarch, your subject is here!”

When the other Northdark emissaries saw this scene, some were envious, some were jealous, and some clapped and cheered.

Some were happy for them, and of course, some were jealous of them.

However, other than William Saul, the nine of them were old subordinates who used to be close to the Patriarch, and they were familiar with each other.

It was impeccable to let them travel together in groups.

Therefore, even though many people were jealous, they could only watch as they walked out.

It was also at this moment that Patriarch William stood up. Just as he was about to bestow the tokens to the ten of them, he heard a clear female voice coming from behind the high platform.

“Father!”

“Wait a moment!”

It was Princess Scarlet’s voice.

Her voice came from the left side of the Great Hall. Everyone looked towards the source of the voice and saw Scarlet floating in the air as she flew over from outside the door.

It was obvious that she had been eavesdropping outside the door for a long time.

Now that she had appeared, they did not know what her true motive was.

Many people looked over in silence. They only heard Scarlet walking over to the Patriarch William and speaking slowly.

“Father, please allow me… to go together with you. Is that alright?”

An indescribable excitement surged in Scarlet’s eyes.

It was obvious that she was extremely passionate about following the diplomatic mission. It was definitely not something that came out of nowhere.

“Nonsense!”

However, the Patriarch William directly rejected her suggestion. “The journey to the easternmost is fraught with dangers. How can a little girl like you casually participate in it?”

The Patriarch William had always doted on this little daughter of his, Scarlet. Therefore, he absolutely would not agree with her for such a long journey of ten thousand miles.

However, Scarlet knew that her father had always been soft-hearted towards her. She directly grabbed her father’s arm and shook it as she continued to speak.

“Father, I heard everything just now. There is no danger on this trip to the easternmost region.”

“There aren’t many experts in the East anymore. A Great Sage of the first rank is an extremely rare existence there. With my current strength as a 9th rank Magus, I won’t encounter too much danger.”

“Moreover, Uncle Saul is going together.”

“He’s a first rank High Magus. There aren’t many people in the entire north who are his match. With him around, I’ll definitely be very safe.”

“Father, just allow me…”

“It’s been 21 years since I was born. In these 21 years, I’ve been staying in Northdark City. I’ve never left the city, I’ve long bored of staying here.”

“Now that I have the chance to go to the outside world, please give me your blessing…”

Scarlet shook her father’s arm, acting coquettishly.

Being stared at by more than a hundred Northdark emissaries, this scene was somewhat awkward.

The Patriarch William didn’t know how to reply for a moment. He stood rooted to the ground and didn’t speak for a long time.

In the end, it was still William Saul who spoke up and helped the Patriarch out of the predicament,

“Patriarch, actually, I’ve also felt the weak aura of the East lately. There haven’t been any top experts appearing.”

“It’s possible that a crisis has really occurred in the East, causing the peak experts to plummet.”

“If that’s really the case, then there’s no harm in letting Princess Scarlet travel together. I will definitely protect Princess Scarlet’s safety!”

As Scarlet’s biological uncle, William Saul had always doted on this niece of his.

Therefore, when he saw how much she wanted to go out and take a look, he also pleaded on her behalf.

When the Patriarch William heard these words, his originally firm heart wavered for a moment.

After a moment of silence, he sighed and looked lovingly at Scarlet’s face. With a smile, he patted her shoulder and spoke slowly,

“Since Saul is here, Scarlet, your father will allow you to go out this time. However, you must promise your father that when you go out, you must listen to Uncle Saul’s words and follow closely by his side. You are not allowed to run around, and you are also not allowed to act alone. Did you hear me?”

“Yes!”

Hearing that her father had finally agreed, Scarlet didn’t care too much about it. She immediately nodded her head in excitement and agreed.

The number of people in the Eastern envoy group therefore changed from 10 to 11.

When many of the Northdark emissaries present saw this scene, they were naturally surprised and envious.

However, they didn’t have the destiny of a princess. Even if they were to do the same, the Patriarch would definitely not agree to it.

Therefore, they did not say anything else. They sighed and dispersed.

Of course, they would not give up on the idea of going to the East to plunder.

Each and every one of them had their own little plans in their hearts…

Then the crowd dispersed…

The Patriarch, William, seemed to have thought of something again. He made Saul stay and then said to him seriously…
