Chapter 19 The Three Powers
"Dear Master Holk, can you introduce us in detail to the three forces you mentioned just now?" Kora asked respectfully, "You know, we have no understanding of the world at all. If we can have your guidance..."
"Ha, let me introduce it to you? It's really troublesome, I knew it would become very troublesome in the end!" Holknu nodded, his eyes hesitant, and muttered, "You can't tell too much about attracting people..."
Listening to the old guy's muttering, Qin Lun blinked at Michelle next to him. The centaur girl smiled softly and nodded.
"Your Magister, please, will you introduce it to us?" Michelle walked to the front of the sofa with her big watery eyes, shook the old magi's little arm, and asked delicately, "Just give me a reminder!"
"Ha, what a pity, you are such a good girl, have been ruined by these people... Okay, okay! I can't do anything to you!" Holk shook his beard, leaned against the sofa, and squirted his fingers helplessly, "Where should we start? Well, let's start with the big guys of the Royal Knights of Victor..."
The Royal Knights of Victor are very different from the so-called Knights in everyone's impression. In fact, there are only three or four real knights in total, and the rest of the people are knight guards and entourages.
Most of the people in this knight group are warrior professions with high martial arts skills. Of course, there are also magicians, warlocks, assassins, archers and other professions among the knights. In Holk's description, even the high-level guards and entourages of the knights are basically close to his strength.
As for the real knights, even Holk himself has never seen them. The real number cannot be counted. I only know that there are either three or four. Those knights are real strong men who have survived since the Battle of the Gods. In the inner world, they are at the highest level of the pyramid.
Two or three thousand years ago, the Royal Knights of Victor was the largest human kingdom in the world of Nars, the Royal Knights of Victor, and was also one of the main combat troops of the intelligent race in the Battle of the Gods. Not only did they have stations in the southern hills, but they basically had spheres of influence in other parts of the Greenland continent.
"Ha, if you want to be an outstanding warrior or knight, they are the best choice. However, I don't like them. Those hypocritical guys are strict in their discipline, comparable to those of the ascetics and Puritans in Kitahara. Even if they are fine, they will whip each other and beauties in the name of "training the will of the knight!" Holk twisted his beard and fell into memories, "I think of the past..."
"Master Hallk, where is the shelter camp and tower?" Several people in the hall spoke at the same time, interrupting Hallk's memoir.
As the two sides communicated, they gradually gained some understanding of this moody old master. They knew that he would not kill people at will except for some evil things, and they immediately became much more courageous.
What's more, once Holk starts with "thinking about the past", then the next chapter will be a long history of his own struggles, plus a few thoughts. And he can't stop, which makes everyone extremely regretful that he didn't interrupt him at the beginning.
"Ha, shelter camp and tower..." Holk didn't care about everyone's interruption. He probably had been used to being interrupted at such a time.
The tower is a small association of magicians, which basically includes various mages, priests, sorcerers, summonings, astrology, spell formations, etc. The region is limited to the southern hilly areas of Greenland. However, it has close ties with the mage associations in other regions and mainland China. The head of the organization is two legendary profession mages.
Although most of the members of the tower are magic professions, there is a huge benefit for visitors from the watch world to join the tower. That is, there is a library of books in the tower, and there are many other magic and martial arts for various combat professions. Moreover, most of the mages in the tower are obsessed with research and magic experiments, and the trivial tasks they publish are the largest.
The last shelter camp was the most complex force among the three. The shelter camp had no nominal leader, only a god named Anna Eldimis. In some myths and legends in the world of Nars, she was the lowest-ranking goddess of forest and moon.
According to legend, the small plane where Anna Eldimus was born was one of the smallest planes, and could not even be considered a plane, and could only be called a semi-plane. The world laws in the plane were broken, resulting in the fact that Anna Eldimus' divine nature was not completely formed. Compared with the true divine destiny, she could only be considered a semi-organized person.
Anna Eldimis had a calm temperament. In ancient times, she had no religion of her own. She was generally regarded as a subordinate god by the wise race and classified into some major religions. It was precisely because she was not famous and had unknown strength that she escaped the catastrophe of the battle between the gods.
After the formation of the inner world, Anna Eldimis has always lived in the quiet forest of the southern hills, and generally does not reveal her true form in front of people. People who have seen her have different legends. Some say she is a young and beautiful forest banshee wearing a flower crown, some say she is a pure and sacred unicorn beast, and some say she is the ancient tree of wisdom in the deepest part of the quiet forest.
If all the powerful lives in the Narsri world are divided into camps, then Anna Eldimis should belong to the absolutely neutral camp, neither supporting either side nor participating in any war.
The shelter camp is in the depths of the quiet forest, and the member structure is very complex. There are both escapees and defeats from major forces, as well as hidden people with strange beliefs and ideas, and some visitors who represent the world.
Whether these people's beliefs are evil or just, Anna Eldimis allows them to have a place to live in the Forest of Silence and obtain their daily needs.
This Shenhu did not personally participate in the management of the shelter camp. The camp manager spontaneously formed an asylum committee from the beginning of its establishment.
Anna Eldimis only left three iron laws for the camp. One is that the killing of forest creatures must be based on life's needs; the other is that the battle between the camp members can only be duels of equal numbers, and the winner must bury the opponent's body with his own hands; the last is that once the Silent Forest encounters foreign enemies, the camp members must unanimously go abroad.
After listening to Holk's introduction, everyone fell into deep thought.
"Ha, I knew that after these guys had inquired, they would not pay attention to the old guy's nagging anymore!" Holk muttered a few dissatisfaction, stood on the sofa, and yawned.
"No, isn't Michelle still talking to Grandpa Holk?" The centaur girl had the simplest mind. She basically regarded the important things that the old mage said as a bedtime story. At this time, she saw the old mage get up, rushed over and squeezed the old mage's shoulders with a smile.
"Yeah, Michelle is the most obedient!" The surprise in Holk's eyes flashed, but soon he showed his vulgar face again, leaning back with his head wearing a nightcap rubbing against the centaur's plump breast.
The old mage quickly left with a few serving elves. After he left, the hall was immediately filled with heated discussion, and even Michelle was involved happily. Only Frank was still standing behind Qin Lun like a dull gourd, with a hint of confusion in his pupils behind the mask, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Let's join the tower. The trivial tasks posted by the mages are just right for our small team, and there is also that library, which should also contain the martial arts of warriors and shooters!" Kola's blue skin showed a hint of bright red, and she said excitedly.
"...The Royal Knights of Victor are also good!" Sass murmured in a low voice.
Esmila Star also had many feudal empires in history. As a man, he had a strong knight-order complex and admired those ancient knights with firm beliefs.
However, Sass was a wife who was in charge of the sternness. Under Kora's power, he really did not dare to express different opinions. He could only look at Qin Lun, Hill and others pitifully, hoping that they could turn their wife's ideas around.
"The shelter camp is also good, at least the rules are very free! Master Holk does not belong to any of the three forces, so why don't we ask for his opinion?" Michelle rolled his eyes and shyly expressed her opinion. As a centaur, she naturally yearned for the forest forces.
"Halke will not give us a strong opinion of tendency. Although this old mage is a little moody, he knows better than anyone else. If he is willing to give us such opinions, he has already said it!" Qin Lun smiled at Michelle, "However, I feel that you can stay. The old guy seems to appreciate you very much. If you make a request to learn magic from him, I guess he is most likely willing to accept you as an apprentice!"
"I'll go with everyone!" Michelle lowered his head, glanced at Qin Lun, and said softly.
"Qin Lun, Hansen, what about your opinions?" Hill blocked the SAS couple on the team channel and solicited opinions from the other two.
"Hill, do you still need to ask this? My choice will only be that!" Hansen glanced at Qin Lun next to him and said lightly, "It's Qin Lun, what about you? Are you going with us and wanting to part ways, this is the last chance!"
"Haha, why bother to test me again? I want to leave you two aside, and I won't form a team with you and enter the Narce World!" Qin Lun shook his head and smiled, and stood up, "However, the final decision was to wait until all the people from the three forces came, let's observe it again!"
"Of course!" Hill and Hansen looked at each other, with a smile on their faces. Qin Lun really made the same choice as them. If he retreated, he would not be the "anatomist".
