Chapter 155 Farewell to Ralph the Wizard, the Changes Hidden Behind the Game
"Now, surely someone can understand me."
In that instant, he understood the reason for the shield knight's "impulsiveness".
It was simply that he drew circles on the ground so easily that the knights around him misunderstood, thinking that his weapon was too sharp. As a result, his actions not only failed to intimidate them, but instead aroused their greed.
Solving this problem is quite simple.
In the utter silence, Luo Ang released his sword.
Without his support, the sword, which was of only ordinary quality, could no longer bear the weight of the shield knight and his armor. It was bent by the heavy weight, and even the part of the sword that had been stuck in the ground was pulled out.
The part of the sword that sprang out of the ground bent under the pressure, and like a mirror, it reflected the falling moonlight. The reflected moonlight was not uniform, but extremely scattered, like ripples constantly spreading on the surface of water.
It wasn't that the moonlight was scattered, but rather that the sword reflecting the moonlight was covered with marks from being rubbed by rough earth and stones.
Seeing this, the knights naturally understood one thing.
This weapon, which looks incredibly sharp, is just an ordinary longsword.
This also means that the knight who drew a 'circle' on the battlefield was not, as others had expected, merely someone who flaunted his power with a sharp weapon—but possessed strength beyond everyone's imagination.
"Could I have done everything he did?"
And so, amidst the shimmering moonlight, all the knights began to ponder, and then quickly came to a conclusion.
They can't do it!
Not to mention those knights.
Even the wizards responsible for 'archiving' had to admit, after careful consideration, that they couldn't do it.
Such a knight is certainly qualified to "establish rules" and "remain neutral" in this chaotic situation.
After Loon killed four more knights who didn't believe in the "circle" that night, the rules of "inside and outside the circle" became one of the consensuses in this chaotic situation.
Meanwhile, some people also found out about Lo's face, drew it into a book, and reported it to the four wizards.
……
"Thunder Wizard has quite the leisure time." Two days after Loon drew that circle, one afternoon, Ralph Wizard appeared at the Lake Mountain family mansion.
Concealing his mental energy, he calmly made his way from the main gate of the Lakeside Mansion to Luo Ang's bedroom, then knocked and entered—no one around him noticed his presence.
"Is Wizard Ralph complaining that I haven't made enough of a commotion?" Loen chuckled.
Upon hearing this, Wizard Ralph was immediately horrified.
Is it making a lot of noise?
He had personally witnessed the commotion caused by the Thunder Wizard before him—how could he dare to allow the Thunder Wizard to replicate the situation in Chashanling in the capital?
"No, no, no," Wizard Ralph explained, "I just didn't expect that Wizard Thunder would come to Giant Shield City as a knight."
"I'm more curious about what exactly you're trying to achieve by causing all this trouble in Giant Shield City?" Loon asked, turning the tables. "Don't tell me you're relieving our stress this way."
"We just want to take this opportunity to explain what happened before," Wizard Ralph said frankly.
First, it's an explanation for the Scarlet Wizard's rampage in Giant Shield City—the best way to suppress the impact of a group of wizards fighting and killing each other in Giant Shield City is to overshadow him with an even bigger upheaval.
That's exactly what Ralph and his wizards are doing right now.
A major reshuffling among the nobility—under such a cleansing, everyone's attention will naturally be focused on the nobles, and no one will continue to pursue the wizard's battle. Even if some people are still curious about it, it can be explained as a prelude to the noble reshuffling, that some high-ranking nobles are deliberately playing tricks.
Second, there is the wizard Sunil.
He is already dead, so Ralph Wizard's claim to the Silver Grey School wizards is that Sunil Wizard is a traitor.
After he went to Forked Ridge, he formed an alliance with the wizards there—then he killed the wizard Sunil and fled back to Giant Shield City.
The witch who made the move was the one who chased him all the way to Giant Shield City, wanting to avenge the wizard Sunil, because he had killed Sunil.
Since the wizard Sunil chose to betray, it was only natural that the Sulun family he supported, as well as the Sulun family's vassals, would be purged.
Furthermore, forcing those "neutral" "independent nobles" to take sides is also a way to clear the field in advance and to lay bait and create a feeding ground.
Once the news of this chaos has spread, the wandering wizards who roamed everywhere will follow the turmoil to the Kingdom of the Shield.
The more wild wizards who come here, the more chaotic the situation will become—and the greater their chances of winning in the chaos.
Otherwise, without enough wild wizards to bolster their presence, no matter how much commotion they cause, the wizards of the Silver Ash School could easily quell it all and then suppress these 'registered wizards' in the most ruthless way.
"Was that person who came out of the palace really a wizard from the Silver-Gray School?"
"He didn't have a single doubt about the claim that the wizard Sunil betrayed him?" Loon raised an eyebrow, somewhat incredulous at the situation described by the wizard Ralph.
The changes in this situation seem like child's play.
"Why would he have any doubts?" Ralph himself looked at Loen with an incredulous gaze. "Anselor didn't see our secret conversation with Scarlet Wizard."
"When he intervened in the battle, we were indeed fighting the Crimson Wizard, not joining forces with him."
"Under these circumstances, why would he suspect us?"
"Respected Thunder Wizard, Wizard Anselo was simply lucky to be chosen by the Silver Ash School at a young age."
"Putting aside the background of the Silver Ash School, Anselor himself is nothing more than a gullible fool."
"Although he is powerful, once his power is gone, an ordinary person could easily outmaneuver him."
"Thunder Wizard, we have reverence for schools, but a school is a school, and a school wizard is a school wizard. These two cannot be confused." Wizard Ralph seemed afraid that the Thunder Wizard in front of him might become fearful because of the outcome of the battle between the Crimson Wizard and Anselor Wizard and run away from the current situation. Therefore, he also encouraged Loon.
"That makes sense." Loon nodded. Following Ralph's train of thought, he quickly figured out the cause and effect of the chaos in the Great Shield City. Then, he asked another question.
"Is the wizard Anselor of the Silver-Gray School still in Giant Shield City?"
