Chapter 695 (2/2)

The appearance of the Henry Clan’s head had already gotten the attention of many people. When these aristocrats, martial arts practitioners, and clan heads heard what he had to say, they revealed great astonishment. Those who were still slightly undecided earlier had all now made up their minds.

“What?” Audrey listened to this in surprise. It was as if she had not expected that the Mage Association would take such great measures.

Seeing the astonished looks from the people around them, the corner of the lips of the Henry Clan’s head curled up slightly, appearing a bit complacent. He had gotten these news from Shi Shou one day ago, and the reason he spoke of them was to show off that he was highly regarded by the Gold Robed Mages.

A short and fat wealthy merchant asked worriedly, “Is the Krieg royal family willing to accept this? They won’t end up fight, right?”

“That’s right? What will happen if a war were to occur?” Another wealthy clan head asked.

The Henry Clan’s head waved his hand and said, “Don’t worry, there won’t be a fight. Putting aside the fact that Lord Shi Shou is already a tier three Divine level Mage, Lord Mage King has already attained a breakthough to tier five of the Divine level, having the powers to hold his stand in this world.

“Furthemore, amongst the Mages from the other factions, the power of the Green Mage King, the Red Mage King, and the Purple Mage King are all astonishing. They aren’t that much weaker than the Gold Mage King.

“Moreover, the top person in the Mage Association—the Black Mage King—is there to keep watch over things. Even if the Church of Universal Truth comes, it will be a tough fight.”

Hearing the Henry Clan’s head mentioning one Mage King after another, the hearts of the people present palpitated. When the people present thought of the power they held, it was as if they had a heart calming pill.

It was true that the world was getting increasing chaotic. If they could be protected by a great presence like the Gold Mage King, it would be the best for them.

Henry smiled and looked at everyone’s reaction. He knew that the Mage Association’s prestige had been slowly planted in their hearts, and as the pressure coming from the Mages get increasingly stronger, it would be easier for him to command these great clans.

Just then, a white-haired elderly man walked out while using a cane to support himself.

With the elderly man’s appearance, everyone was once again taken by surprise.

“Lord Governor?”

“Even the Governor has come?”

“It seems that even the government has acknowledged the Mage Association’s status.”

That white-haired elderly man holding a cane was, in name, the person with the highest level of authority in the Northern Ice Region—the Northern Ice Region’s Governor. He stood next to Henry and said calmly, “The majesty of the Gold Mage King’s reputation and power spreads through the entire world. His Majesty has given the orders that the Gold Robed Mages will reign over the Northern Ice Region. Everyone here are reputable characters in the Northern Ice Region. Please cooperate well.”

Hearing the words of the Northern Ice Region’s Governor, everyone present were left speechless. To think that even King Alexander had admitted the status of the Gold Robed Mages.

The short and fat wealthy merchant said, “Sigh, it seems that the spread of the control the Mage Association has in this world is inevitable.”

“That’s right. The Northern Ice Region will probably be in the control of the Gold Robed Mages from now on,” the person who spoke up was the leader of a faction. His eyes revealed his acceptance of the current situation.

With the way things were going, even the Governor and the Henry Clan’s head had fully succumbed to the Gold Robed Mages. What could they, small sects and factions, do about this?

Audrey’s father noticed Audrey’s expression suggesting her unwillingness to accept things. He spoke to her using information currents, “Audrey, don’t be rash. The Gold Robed Mages ruling over the Northern Ice Region is something that will come to be. No one can stop the current trend of things.”

Audrey shook her head. Her mind was still filled with the domineering scene of Fang Xingjian stomping down and crushing Devin and the Gold Mage King’s clone.
