Ecklaus slowly began to speak:
"My boss told me it was because of the failed land reclamation project in CheLun Town 25 years ago."
"The old Earl, who is now Earl Larry's father, was very confident that he could succeed in acquiring the land, but in the end he failed."
“Many people in the capital have long coveted the land of Bandanda, so they naturally interfered and complained to the king about the old count.”
"The old count spent countless hours and resources to turn the tide. What started as a failed attempt to secure the territory of Wheel Town was transformed into a victory achieved with only a small number of troops."
"But it came at a terrible price; he soon fell seriously ill and passed away not long after."
"I guess Earl Larry called my boss over this time as a precaution."
Upon hearing this, Luo Xiu was about to say something.
Boom boom boom!
A light knock sounded from outside the door.
"Ecklaus, are you asleep? I have something I want to discuss with you. I think this slime siege is a bit strange."
The voice of a woman in black robes came from outside the door.
Luo Xiu raised an eyebrow, pressed his broadsword against Ecklaus's neck, and gestured for him to be quiet.
The woman outside, hearing no response from inside, asked in surprise:
"Ecklaus?? Strange..."
"Ecklaus, are you alright? I'm coming in."
After he finished speaking, the door slowly opened from the outside.
"Don't……"
Ecklaus wanted to stop it.
But it's too late.
Luo Xiu moved like the wind, quickly appearing in front of the black-robed woman whose eyes were filled with terror.
"you--"
The woman in the black robe opened her mouth slightly.
Before she could finish speaking...
Bang! ! !
Luo Xiu delivered a heavy chop to his shoulder.
The woman in black robes was struck dumb, and her body instantly went limp.
Luo Xiu gently closed the door.
Looking at the black-robed woman and Ecklaus lying on the ground, he smiled and said:
"Now there are two of you. What other information do you know? Tell me everything..."
……
In the largest restaurant in CheLun Town
As Tassania charged toward her, Liss calmly raised her hand.
Almost instantly, three magic arrays overlapped in her palm.
A chilling current surged forth from the magic circle like a tidal wave, crashing towards Tassanya, whose entire body was engulfed in flames.
Tier 3 Mage Skill: [Surging Cold Tide]
A direct hit!
boom! ! !
The misty vapor spread out, instantly transforming the center of the battle into a white fog, obscuring the view of the nobles present.
"Clap clap clap!"
Applause erupted in the hall.
The one clapping was Muk, the rising star of the mage academy.
He knew Liz's strength well; to hit the surging cold wave at such close range...
Even if it can't end the battle directly, it can at least severely injure Tassanya.
The outcome of this battle is practically decided.
The flustered nobles nearby saw Muke clapping.
Although some people didn't understand why, gradually, some nobles began to applaud as well.
These nobles were usually those who valued appearances, and seeing Muke clapping, they felt they couldn't just stand there like country bumpkins, flustered and afraid.
I mustered up the courage to clap.
But some timid nobles still asked in hushed tones:
"Is it over already?"
"Is it...over?"
Hearing the nobles' conversation, Muke smiled slightly and said:
"Everyone, let me introduce you to my junior, Liss, a mage genius who is even more talented than me. With her around, you can all rest assured."
"Just enjoy the performance."
Hearing this, the nobles were finally relieved, and smiles returned to their faces.
They had long heard of Muk's strength and naturally believed it without a doubt.
They all spoke up:
"Miss Lisz is too strong. It's fortunate that Miss Lisz is here."
"Yes, thanks to Miss Liz, who is not only beautiful but also incredibly strong."
"Given time, he will become a shining star in Bandanda, just like His Excellency Muke."
Liz stood in the center of the hall, listening to the nobles' praise, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up.
She is indeed an extremely proud person.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to a small town like Wheel Town and stayed there for a year just to advance to the fourth rank.
The more arrogant a person is, the more they are willing to pay in order to maintain that arrogance.
Although her teachers and friends all praised her and said she would become the next Bandanda Star.
But no one knew that her gaze was never fixed on a small Bandanda.
Her dream had always been to go to the capital.
It is said that the most talented generation in the entire kingdom is gathered there.
She wanted to go there to showcase her talents and abilities.
That's where her stage is.
She is confident that she is no less capable than anyone else!
But suddenly,
A fist covered in red scales emerged from the mist before her.
In her incredulous gaze, the fist grew larger and larger.
Then, right in the center of the face.
【Frosty Blessings】
At the last moment, Liss unleashed her defensive measures.
A layer of cold air surged out and enveloped her entire body.
But that fist was too close and too powerful.
It was clearly impossible for a mage's defensive skills to completely stop that monstrous fist.
One punch down,
Liz's face contorted in shock, and her confident smile vanished.
Saliva and blood spurted from her contorted face.
It fell into the air.
"Lise!!!"
Muk stared in disbelief at the scene before him.
Liz fell heavily to the ground.
As Tassanya emerged from the mist, she shook the frost off her arms, which showed obvious signs of frostbite.
However, it was hidden by the dense layer of scales on his right forearm.
Without pausing, Tassanya charged towards Lis, who had fallen to the ground.
He laughed and said:
"Have you witnessed it? My newly bestowed power!"

As Tassanya rapidly approached Liss, who had fallen to the ground,
The monks nearby quickly stepped forward and stood in front of Liss.
He crossed his arms and reached out to grab Tassanya's fist in a peculiar posture.
On his hands, one could faintly see a vortex slowly flowing.
