Ordos shook his head and said, "No, Brother Cary, this Guild of Assassins should be more insidious than we thought. Think about it, if the ones who sneak attack this time are all assassins, how will the Hwasin Empire react? His Majesty will definitely be furious. As we all know, the headquarters of the Guild of Assassins is in the Sunset Empire. I don't believe that the Sunset Empire doesn't know their exact location. If His Majesty forcefully asks the Sunset Empire for the people, even the Holy Hall won't protect them. After all, the Guild of Assassins belongs to the dark forces. Under pressure, I think it's very likely that the Sunset Empire will reluctantly sell the Guild of Assassins to us. The leader of the Guild of Assassins will definitely think of this, so he asked the Sunset Empire to send out dark magicians to cooperate with him and let those magicians command the assassins. It's very dangerous to attack the Sorcerers Guild in the Hwasin Empire. What is the Guild of Assassins thinking? That's why they didn't send higher-level assassins."

"Sigh … it's so comfortable. It's really comfortable to sleep." Yan Li stretched his back and woke up. "Dumb, are you done with your cultivation? You're really good. You've been sitting here for a day and a night! "

After a while, Dumb finally reacted. He told the Holy Evil through his mental power helplessly, "Xiao Xie, don't call me daddy. You should call me brother."

In the system of the Hwasin Empire, every ten people formed a squad, every hundred people formed a squadron, and every thousand people formed a brigade. Ten brigades of ten thousand people formed a legion, and ten legions formed an army. The commander of the army was in charge of the army. The one hundred thousand people stationed here was the only army in the Light Province. Their commander was naturally the governor of the Light Province, Ordos. These troops could also be said to be Ordos's direct troops. They were known as the Tiger of Light Army. Under the leadership of Ordos, the Tiger of Light Army had made countless contributions to the Hwasin Empire. They were the most powerful army except for the Knights of Holy Light led by Fengwen.

Cary said, "Let's go sit at my place. Let's have a good chat." For the past two days, under the order of Ordos, the entire garrison of the Light Province had been constantly moving to the border between the Hwasin Empire and the Sunset Empire. At the same time, he also reported the attack on the Sorcerers Guild to the upper echelons of the Hwasin Empire. The current Emperor Lille of the Hwasin Empire was furious. However, because there was no sufficient evidence to prove that the attack was instigated by the Sunset Empire, he only ordered the garrisons of the provinces bordering the Sunset Empire to be ready to face the invasion of the Sunset Empire at any time. The entire army of the Hwasin Empire had a huge impact because of the attack on the Sorcerers Guild. Cary did not stay idle either. For the past two days, he used his identity as a member of the Union to issue orders to the Sorcerers Guild on the continent, asking them to gather and wait for the headquarters' dispatch at any time. Although magicians were usually very idle, they were all supported by the Union's salary. Once the Union was in trouble, of course, they were duty-bound to stand up and help. The Tian Yuan Continent also experienced some turbulence with the abnormal actions of the Sorcerers Guild. The undercurrent that had been brewing for many years began to flow rapidly.

Ordos stood up and said, "I still have a lot of things to deal with, so I'll be leaving first. If you have anything to ask me, as long as you have this token, no one will stop you."

Ordos said, "Little brother Dumb, I think it's better if you don't go to the Sunset Empire for now. The situation at the border is so tense, I'm afraid a lot of things will happen."

Dumb took out the token from his bosom and said, "Then let's go. Didn't Uncle Orr say that with this token, we can pass through the garrison of the Hwasin Empire at will?"

Ordos snorted angrily, "This Sunset Empire is simply a cancer on the continent. Almost all the despicable things are related to them. What a bastard. I'd like to see how long they can run wild."

Yan Li said, "We forgot to ask the Queen Of Elves about the exact number of missing elves. Without the exact number, how can we be sure that all the elves have been rescued?"

"Brother, you're so stupid! If you hadn't been ambushed by it that day, you could have used your Black Iron Bow to shoot it in the head like you shot the Giant Spirit Snake. It would have been finished long ago. There's no need for me to do anything. Don't worry, it's very obedient now and is obediently my little brother. In the Blood of the Dragon God, it seems to be very satisfied. It can actually absorb energy from the outside world through the Blood of the Dragon God like me. In the Blood of the Dragon God, because I can absorb energy, I don't need to eat. However, brother, don't forget me when there's delicious food! Brother, when are you going to let me out to play? Xiao Xie was so bored in here. "

After the three of them sent Aldos away, Cary ordered someone to send a set of magic robes to Dumb. It was also a red magic robe that symbolized the identity of a fire mage, but this set had a special place. The six-pointed star on the chest was drawn with gold thread, and the six vertices were inlaid with ordinary red magic crystals. There were nine golden six-pointed stars on the right shoulder, which symbolized the identity of the guild's elder. Dumb could not help but feel a little awkward wearing this gorgeous magic robe, but he could not refuse Cary's good intentions, so he could only do so. Cary originally wanted him to choose some magic supplies from the guild's collection, but Dumb refused. After all, he knew that his magic level was not high, and those magic supplies were useless. The next morning, when the three of them left, Cary personally sent them to the west gate of Light City and gave Dumb a hundred purple crystal coins for their travel expenses. Dumb had no choice but to accept it.

"Dumb, the people of the Sorcerers Guild seem to be very busy these two days. There are a lot more people coming and going than when you first arrived."

Holy Evil said with some grievance, "Well, brother, I'm going to teach that guy a lesson. Call me if you need anything." "

Dumb scratched his head and said, "Hello, Castellan Aldos, I am also a member of the Sorcerers Guild. This is what I should do. Besides, the assassin guild once killed my uncle. I can't wait to wipe them out."

Yan Li nodded and said, "Yes! The Sunset Empire is not small. I'm afraid we will really have to look for a while. By the way, Dumb, big brother and I found that we made a mistake when we left the elves. "

Yan Li glanced at Yanshi on the bed and said, "You have been cultivating for a day and a night, and big brother has been vigilantly watching over you. It seems that you are too tired. Let's go and take a look. "

Two days later, the three finally passed through the Light Province and arrived at the border between the Hwasin Empire and the Sunset Empire. Looking at the endless military camps in front of them, the three couldn't help but be stunned. Yan Li said hoarsely, "Why are there so many troops here? How are we going to get there? "

Yan Li shook his head and said, "Let's look around first. Maybe the elves we saved will know the specific number. Even if they don't know, we just need to rescue the elven princess Xing 'er first, and the mission will be basically completed. As for the other elves, we can talk about it later."

Dumb was surprised and said, "What? Ten thousand gold coins? I can't use that much money. Just enough to spend is enough. "

Cary said seriously, "Of course you can. I have discussed with the other elders. Although you are young, based on the magic you used to summon the Silver Dragon that day, you are qualified to take up the position of an elder. I will now officially confer you the position of honorary elder of the Sorcerers Guild."

Dumb was about to say something when two people came from the front yard. One of them was the president of the Sorcerers Guild, Cary, and the other was a middle-aged man that he and Yan Li had never seen before. The middle-aged man was wearing a white robe. Although his attire was simple, he had an awe-inspiring and dignified aura. Dumb could feel a murderous aura from him.

Cary said in surprise, "Why are you in such a hurry to leave! Stay in the Guild for a few more days. I still want to have a chance to exchange magic experiences with you. "

Dumb said embarrassedly, "Uncles, how can I accept such a precious gift from you?"

"Big brother, oh, alright then. Then I'll call you Big Brother Dumb. "

The two walked out of the room. They lived in the backyard of the Sorcerers Guild. The yard was very quiet, with all kinds of plants planted. The fresh air made Dumb feel refreshed.

After entering the room, Dumb was immediately attracted by the magic books on the bookshelf. As a Magic Shooter and the president of the Sorcerers Guild, Cary naturally had some rare books in his collection. Seeing that Dumb was very interested in his collection, Cary couldn't help but say proudly, "I have a lot of unique magic books here. Dumb, if you are interested, you can take a look."

Dumb was overjoyed at first, but when he remembered that he was about to leave, he could only shake his head and said, "Thank you, President Cary, but I'm afraid I won't have the chance to borrow them. We will leave tomorrow morning for the Sunset Empire. I'll take my leave here today."

Agarwood Silver was a very precious metal. It had a very strong anti-corrosion effect. Its effect was even better than silver tin. It could also emit a faint fragrance that could refresh one's mind. Many jewelry boxes of noble women were made of it. It was extremely expensive to make. This thick piece of agarwood Silver was enough to make a few jewelry boxes.

Cary thought to himself, Aldous, you really know how to buy people's hearts! Without waiting for Dumb to answer, he rushed to say, "Yes, not only will he help you, you are now a great benefactor of the Guild. If you have any difficulties in the future, the Sorcerers Guild will also help you. You are one of us after all. The Guild will always be your home. This is for you." As he said that, he took out something that he had prepared and handed it to Dumb.

Aldous glanced at Yan Li and said with a smile, "Little brother, you are thinking too simply. If the Sunset Empire could really be destroyed, they wouldn't be so rampant today. A thousand years ago, when the evil Dark Demon Tribe was destroyed, the first Pope of the Holy Hall and His Majesty received help from many friends. The most important ones were the founders of the Sunset Empire. Therefore, the Holy Hall will naturally protect them to a certain extent. Moreover, although the dark forces of the Sunset Empire are rampant, the number of people who believe in the Holy Hall is the most in their territory. This is a great irony. Therefore, the Holy Hall has always been protecting them. You should know that on this continent, the only thing that can make all four empires worry at the same time is the Holy Hall. Although the Holy Hall is not located in a vast area, their power is so great that it can be said that they control most of the areas on the continent. Just the believers alone, there are more than ten million. There are also those powerful Priests of Light and Goddesses, as well as the Holy Knights who are not many in number but are extremely strong individually. Who can compete with them? The conflict between us and the Sunset Empire has been the deepest for a long time. The Holy Hall will turn a blind eye to the small frictions that occur usually. However, if the conflict escalates to a real war, I'm afraid that they will intervene. In terms of overall strength, we are slightly stronger than the Sunset Empire. However, as long as the Holy Hall supports the Sunset Empire, we can't move at all. We can't and dare not send troops to fight against the enemy. Who would want to offend the largest force on the continent? What's more, the Holy Hall has long disliked us. The people of the Hwasin Empire have always been self-sufficient and don't have much affection for the priests of the Holy Hall. If it weren't for Tiangang Kensei who deterred the Holy Hall, I'm afraid they would have found a reason to forcibly spread their teachings. Therefore, we can only wait, wait for the Sunset Empire to take the initiative to send troops. Then, there may be some chance. "

Aldous looked up and down at Dumb. At first glance, there was nothing special about this shy young man in front of him. However, upon a closer look, he found that Dumb had an indescribable temperament. That simple and honest feeling made him have a good impression on him. He smiled and said, "Dumb, thank you for helping Brother Cary! Otherwise, it would be difficult for me to be the Lord of Light City. "

Ah! I have another friend of the Bone Dragon. Xiao Xie, you have to look after it. Its destructive power is too strong. "

The Holy Evil said, "Brother, I have subdued that bastard. He is now my little brother. I can ask him to help you in the future! Although his consciousness is not very clear, after being subdued by me, he is quite obedient. Besides, you saved him that day. He is very grateful to you! With me here, he will not dare to be presumptuous. Don't worry. "

These complicated situations made Dumb dizzy. He murmured, "It's better not to go to war. If there is a war, I'm afraid many people will die!"

Cary brought the three to his residence. Although he was the president of the Sorcerers Guild, his residence was not very gorgeous. Although the room was very large, there were no special decorations. There was only a large bookshelf, a table, a large bed, and a few chairs.

Yan Li laughed and said, "Him? He is not suitable to join the army! Dumb is too soft-hearted. I'm afraid that when he goes to the battlefield, he will not bear to kill a single person. "

Dumby was shocked. That's right! How can we ensure that all the elves are rescued without knowing the exact number? He said anxiously, "Then what should we do? Do we have to go back to the elves again? If we can't even save a single one of their people, I would be too embarrassed to go back to see Aunt Queen Elves. "

Cary turned to the middle-aged man who came with him. "Come, let me introduce you. This is the Lord of Light City, Lord Aldous. He not only rules Light City, but is also the governor of the entire Light Province. Aldous, this is the young hero of Tiangang School I told you about, Dumb. He is the great benefactor of our Guild! "

Aldous was taken aback. He looked at Yan Li and said, "Looking at your figure, you should also practice martial arts. If you are willing to join the army, I can also arrange a good position for you."

Dumb took a look. It turned out to be a golden magic card. Its appearance was somewhat similar to his original red magic card, except that the symbol of the Sorcerers Guild was protruding. The card contained a faint energy. Dumb, who had learned alchemy from Goris, knew that this card was not made of gold, but a mixture of rare metals. "President Cary, don't say that. I am not the benefactor of the Guild. If the Guild is in trouble, I will definitely help. What, what is this?"

Dumb shook his head and said firmly, "No, we must go to the Sunset Empire. Don't worry, we will be careful." No matter what, Dumb would complete the Queen Of Elves's entrustment.

Dumb had no choice but to keep the card close to his body. Yan Li said enviously, "Dumb, you are so lucky. Uncle Cary, how much is the monthly salary of an elder?"

Yan Li asked curiously, "Since the Sunset Empire is so hateful and is a concentration camp of dark forces, why don't the other empires on the continent unite to destroy them?"

Dumb was stunned. He pointed at his nose and said, "Me? Elder? Cary will … But, no, how can Cary be an elder? My magic is very poor. "

Cary said, "No matter how valuable it is, it is not as important as your life. You have saved so many people, this is what you deserve. Well, put it away."

Dumb asked, "President Cary, could those dark mages be from the Assassin Guild?"

Cary also saw Dumb and said with a smile, "Dumb, how are your injuries? What a coincidence, I was just about to look for you. "

Cary patted Aldous' shoulder and said, "Those guys have planned this. Even if we catch them, I'm afraid we won't be able to get anything out of them. Dark mages are very rare now. Their magic is indeed very powerful. But don't worry, once they show up, I'm afraid their future will be difficult. I have already reported to the Holy Hall through the Sacrificial Hall in the city. The Holy Hall will deal with these blasphemers immediately. I believe that after they escape, I'm afraid they won't dare to appear for a while. What I'm worried about is that we don't know how many dark mages there are. If there are a lot of them, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with them. Except for the light magic of the Holy Hall, ordinary mages can hardly compete with them."

It was not by luck that Aldous could sit in the position he had today. His analysis made Cary nod repeatedly, "Yes, Castellan, what you said makes sense. If this is really the case, it means that the Sunset Empire and the dark forces under them may not be of one mind. This will make it much easier to deal with them. Dumb, you said you are going to the Sunset Empire. What are you going to do? It's very chaotic there now! "

Cary sighed, "Who wants to go to war? However, when things come to a head, sometimes, it's often beyond human power. This is the will of God. "

Yan Li nodded repeatedly, grabbed the token from Dumb's hand, and stuffed it into his arms. He said with a smile, "I thank the two of you on behalf of Dumb."

Dumb said helplessly, "I also want to ask you for advice, but we have an urgent matter to deal with as soon as possible. So, I can only apologize. By the way, President Cary, have the assassins who attacked the union that day been caught?" His question immediately made Aldous a little embarrassed, "Those assassins are indeed cunning. Although the troops I sent caught their whereabouts, the cultivation of those dark mages is not weak, so they still escaped. The assassins that were caught also committed suicide." Aldous was a little annoyed at the mention of this matter. Nearly a thousand people stopped the other party, but the five dark mages all escaped at the cost of 300 people. The few assassins that were caught were also killed by him. If it wasn't for his close relationship with Cary, he really didn't know how to explain it to him.

Hearing this sentence, Dumb almost lost his mind. He replied with his mental power, "You, who are you? Why do you call me Dad? "

Yan Li waved his hand repeatedly and said, "I can't. I'm used to living a free life. If I'm in the army, I'll cause you trouble."

The three of them walked toward the barracks from the front. When they were still a few hundred meters away from the barracks, they were stopped by the patrolling infantrymen. When Dumb showed Aldous' token, the infantrymen recognized the origin of the token and hurriedly led them into the barracks.

Aldous didn't expect this dull young man to be so knowledgeable. He nodded and said, "Yes, this is a token made of agarwood silver. It has my special mark on it. With it, you can enter and exit the garrison at the border of the Hwasin Empire at will. Since you insist on going to the Sunset Empire, I think it will be of some use to you."

Yan Gu muttered, "It seems that the relationship between the Hwasin Empire and the Sunset Empire is very tense! This should be the defensive army of the Hwasin Empire. It seems that there are more than 100,000 people. "

Originally, Yan Li wanted to buy a few horses, but after Yanshi looked at the map, he found that the terrain to enter the Sunset Empire from here was very complicated, and it was very difficult for horses to pass through, so he dispelled this idea. In this way, the three people continued on their journey to the Sunset Empire. Dumb's greatest gain in the Light City was not the title of an elder of the Sorcerers Guild and the token of Aldous, but the use of the Divine Dragon's blood to subdue a Bone Dragon. The Bone Dragon's physical attack power was very strong, and could be said to be even stronger than Dumb who did not need to transform. It would certainly become a great help to him in the future.

"Dad, I'm Xiao Xie! You finally found a way to communicate with me. Dad, when are you going to let Xiao Xie out! Although it's very comfortable to stay here, Xiao Xie is so bored! "

Xypher walked down from the main seat and looked up and down at the three people. Because Ah Ke was wearing a thick magician's cloak, he could not see his appearance clearly, but he recognized the mark on Dumb's shoulder. Surprised, he hurriedly said politely, "Xypher did not go out to greet you, please forgive me, Elder, what orders does the Governor have?" In his heart, he blamed the messenger for not clearly explaining the identity of the person who came. The status of an elder of the Sorcerers Guild was very respected, he should have personally come out to greet him.

Aldous' mood did not change because of the refusal of Dumb and Yan Li. He smiled, "Dumb, I'm a few years older than you, don't call me City Lord, that's too distant, call me Uncle Orr! I'm very grateful that you helped the Sorcerers Guild this time. If you need anything in the future, come find Uncle, Uncle will definitely help you. "

Yan Li looked at Dumb and said, "No wonder that City Lord Aldous gave you a token. Without a token, it's almost impossible to pass through the garrison."

Dumb hurriedly said, "President Cary, thank you for your concern, my injuries have basically healed. Is there anything you need from me? "

Cary smiled and said, "Elders don't have a monthly stipend. However, due to their lofty status in the Union, no matter where they are, they have the authority to transfer the Union's funds at any time with this identity card that can prove their identity."

Dumb looked left and right and said, "Maybe it's because after the sneak attack that day, the people of the Guild are vigilant. Big Brother Yan Li, when Big Brother Yanshi wakes up, we'll set off for the Sunset Empire. I can't rest easy if I don't find the elves as soon as possible. It's been more than half a year, Aunt Queen Elves must be waiting anxiously. "

The Holy Evil asked one question after another, making Dumb a little dizzy. He replied, "There are too many people here, it's not convenient for you to come out. Wait until we find a place with fewer people. Big Brother will definitely let you out. Xiao Xie, be a good boy, you can stay with the bone dragon for now. If there's a chance, Big Brother will let you out and play with you. "

As if sensing the entry of Dumb's mental strength, one of the lifeforms quickly approached Dumb. A mental strength came into contact with Dumb. In the contact of mental strength, there was no difference in language. Both parties could only feel each other's inner thoughts. A voice sounded in Dumb's heart, "Daddy, you can finally communicate with me."

Dumb lowered his head and said, "It's precisely because the Sunset Empire is full of dark forces that we have to go there. Some of my friends were kidnapped by the Thieves Guild. They might be sold as slaves, and the Sunset Empire is the most likely place. Therefore, we have to find traces of them."

Dumb heaved a sigh of relief. Only then did he remember the matter and hurriedly asked, "Xiao Xie, what happened to the bone dragon that day? Why did you ask me to keep it in the Dragon God's Blood?"

Dumb whispered, "Big Brother Yan Li, lower your voice. Big Brother Yanshi just fell asleep."

Dumb was completely stunned. The Holy Evil, the Holy Evil actually called him daddy. What, what was going on? Actually, this was easy to explain. Although the Holy Evil was a powerful dragon, it also had kinship. When it was born, the first person it saw was Dumb. Moreover, Dumb provided it with food, cared for it, and loved it. The two of them also had an equal contract. Due to these reasons, the Holy Evil naturally developed feelings of attachment to Dumb and treated Dumb as the closest person to it. This feeling of dependence was understood by Dumb as the word 'daddy' in their mental strength communication.

Dumb still wanted to decline, but Cary said with a straight face, "If you don't accept it, it means that you look down on uncle and the Sorcerers Guild. Do you want to be our enemy?"

Aldous looked at Cary with approval in his eyes. It was rare to find a master! To be able to win over a Magician with the ability to summon dragons would definitely be very beneficial to the development of the Sorcerers Guild in the future. He smiled and said, "No one asked you to use so much money. What Big Brother Cary means is that as long as you need it, you can spend as much as ten thousand gold coins as you want. If you don't spend much, you can just take less from the Guild. This is our first meeting, so Uncle Orr will give you a gift." He took out a diamond-shaped silver cube and handed it to Dumb. Dumb took it and looked at it. There was a word "command" in the center of the cube. It was heavy in his hand. He put it under his nose and smelled it. A faint clear smell entered his nose. He was moved and said, "This, this is Agarwood Silver!"

Dumb agreed and slowly withdrew his mental strength from the Dragon God's Blood's territory. Although it was only a short conversation, he already felt a little tired. He thought to himself, It seems that my mental strength is not very strong. I haven't meditated for a long time. I don't know if my mental strength has regressed.

Dumb was stunned and asked, "What mistake?" Cary was stunned and shook his head, "It shouldn't be.

He shook his head and said, "I don't think so. Even I, Cong Yan, have never heard of the existence of mages in an assassin's guild. After all, only those who have been specially trained and are proficient in martial arts are more powerful when it comes to sneak attacks. This time, the assassins they sent were all ninja level assassins, which I can't understand. I don't know if they are underestimating us, or if they are doing this on purpose. If I were the president of an assassin's guild, I definitely wouldn't send mages. As long as I let the assassins attack from the dark and retreat after one strike, our mages will definitely suffer heavy losses."

Due to the many affairs of the Light Province, Aldous naturally would not be commanding here. The person who temporarily replaced him was his number one general, the Commander of the Light First Legion, Siphire. Siphire was cautious, good at defense, and loyal. He was highly regarded by Aldous. With him commanding the army here, even if the Sunset Empire suddenly attacked, Aldous was confident that the enemy would not be able to get close. The infantrymen who stopped Dumb and the others took them as envoys from Light City because they were holding Aldous' token. They directly reported to the headquarters of the army. Siphire was having a discussion with the other nine Legion Commanders and some generals in the army. Upon hearing that envoys from Light City had come, he hurriedly invited Dumb and the others into the headquarters. The headquarters was a large tent that was temporarily set up. It was extremely spacious inside, hundreds of square meters in size. After entering the tent, Dumb and the others looked at the generals in bright armor and imposing knights. They, who had not seen much of the world, couldn't help but panic. They were just passing by, but they didn't expect to be received by the commander here.

Aldous took a deep look at him and said, "Marshal Fengwen and I have a very good relationship. If you are willing to join the army, with his introduction, you should have a promising future in the empire!"
