Go to the Desert to sell wine? It must be a trustworthy person. So, the scope was narrowed as much as possible, preferably finding someone within the Li clan. As the current patriarch of the Li family, the Old Master knew every clansman best. He pondered gently for a moment, then said, "Let Ergunzi (Two Sticks) go." "He spent two years in the Desert before and is relatively familiar with that side." "Moreover, that kid's temper and character take after his maternal grandfather, very…-

The autumn harvest was over, and the grain was stored in the granaries. The people of Hexi Fortress had completed the most important agricultural task of the year. The lively scene in the fields gradually faded. On the thousands of mu of land, only stubble and scattered stalks remained, empty and quiet, carrying a trace of loneliness after the harvest, waiting for the spring of the coming year to plant grain again. But this did not mean the people's farm work was over. There was even more…

“Ollie, you and Melancholy Uncle go first. I want to take the rest of the children and escape together. A true Hero should not fear hardship. I am a Knight. The Courage creed will grant me strength!” Arno said, his eyes clear and resolute. “Arno, your current strength is insufficient to protect these children and safely escape the fortress. You and Ollie go to the gathering point. I will find a way to lead this group of children out.” Ancestar said. “Melancholy Uncle…” Arno tried to say…-

“You will immediately use the shadows to summon all the dark priests at every node. We cannot wait. Since the legion has already been alerted, Moore Rona will certainly take action. We need to concentrate our forces and launch a preemptive strike!” The hooded figure in the main chair suddenly stood up, his voice slightly raised. “Alexius Rona, are you once again going to raise your hand against your own kin?” A seductive voice drifted in and out, sounding like fingers stroking a lover’s…

Late at night, in the bushes behind the relief home, the orb of the Lesser Light Spell emitted a bright glow. Ancestar sat on a high branch, vigilantly watching the surroundings. “Ollie, I really don’t understand what an imaginary number is. Why do imaginary numbers exist?” Arno scratched his head, looking troubled and distressed at the exercise book. For Arno the poor student, being able to perform meditation with the Minimal Meditation Spell—the single-rune Spell Model of Lesser Mana…

One week prior, Betty listened to the perfunctory words of Bayen the black cat at the gathering and sank into contemplation. She dragged Donna back home and immediately dedicated herself to research. “I don’t need to try and create a mechanical titan from the start. That is indeed too delusional!” Betty stared at the small steam boiler before her, deep in thought. “I should start with something simple and small-scale. A mechanical assist device, similar to armor, might be a good research…

It seemed the bald priest was under some kind of constraint, preventing him from revealing more secrets. Just like the Wizard Apprentices bound by a covenant, he was unable to betray crucial information even if he wanted to. Moreover, after Ace interrogated the bald priest, something seemed to have triggered. The priest struggled violently, his pupils dilated with terror, and he was burned into a pile of ashes by a black flame that ignited from within. “If the bald priest's words were true, I still…

“You—” John French was shaking with rage. This was a bunch of lunatics! A group of madmen whose minds were warped by supposed ‘honor’ and the ‘offensive’! It was simply impossible to communicate with them! The first round of meetings thus ended in acrimonious disagreement. The more serious issue was that the meeting was over, yet not a single word had been discussed about the most crucial questions: how the Expeditionary Force should deploy next, and how to coordinate with the Gallic…-

While the Saxon Army Generals were sharpening their knives, preparing for a major offensive, the atmosphere in the joint command post of their adversaries, the Gallic and Britannian Allied Forces, was bleak and depressing. General Lanrezac, Commander of the Gallic Fifth Army Group, had locked himself in his command tent for a full day. The reports of the disaster at Charleroi and the annihilation of the Third Cavalry Division felt like two slaps across his face. All he wanted now was solitude. Inside…
