Rise of the blood elves

533【Weird person】

"...My mentor, Chief Arcanist Ms. Irene, will help you." Valtroy said seriously.

Oculus looked up in surprise and asked, "Help me?"

"Otherwise?" Valtroy rolled his eyes at him angrily, "Otherwise, how can you, a young apprentice, use it to justify yourself in front of Cooler Starwind? Even if people don't believe that he came up with the technology, they will never do it. I will believe it is you. So as soon as I heard that he published your research results, I told my supervisor exactly what happened. She was very angry about this. You know, Ms. Eileen has always acted impartially and treated her origins well. I am deeply disgusted by the abuse of power by noble magisters, and we will definitely get to the bottom of this matter.”

After Oculus heard this, his hope was suddenly rekindled. He felt as if he had reacquainted himself with the good friend in front of him, and his heart felt warm for no reason.

"Thank you, Valtroy, but..."

Valtroy frowned and asked: "But what?"

Oculus replied bitterly: "I heard that the Starwind family seems to have some relationship with Royal Advisor Ferguson, maybe let's forget it."

There are indeed such rumors.

The Starwind family is not a long-established aristocracy in the empire. It does not have a glorious past, nor does it have a noble bloodline or surname. At first, it was just a small and unpopular family in the capital. It was marginalized and had no choice but to move to the newly completed city of Suramar a hundred years ago.

The rapidly developing environment of Suramar City is like a fish in water for the Starwind family who are good at doing business.This small family that moved out of the capital quickly prospered with the rise of Suramar City. Its industries gradually spread across various industries in the entire region, from infrastructure construction, to large-scale commercial transactions, to shipping trade. To name a few, he accumulated considerable wealth during this period, and gained respect and status by funding the Sisterhood of Elune and magical research.

But everyone knows that a family from the capital area will never be satisfied with the meager achievements achieved in the "remote place" of Suramar.

A few years ago, forty teachers and students from the Basic Magic Academy in Suramar City were kidnapped by trolls.Royal Advisor Ferguson was ordered by the Queen to investigate the matter and quell the subsequent impact.

The Starwind family took this opportunity to establish a relationship with the royal advisor and gave Ferguson a priceless mansion in the best location in the uptown area as a gift.

After all, in the Kaldorei Empire, anyone with the word "royal" is a big shot, let alone a close minister of the Queen.

Whether the Star Breeze family regarded Ferguson as a big tree to enjoy the shade or wanted to use his influence to return to the capital area, they succeeded.

Because recently, the Royal Advisor was once again sent to Suramar City by the Queen to lead an investigation team to examine the rebellion of Speaker Lloyd of the Suramar Magister Council.During the purge process, many magisters who were too close to Speaker Lloyd were dismissed from their posts or imprisoned at worst. However, the Starwind family, which had been funding Speaker Lloyd's magic research, had a close relationship with him. Not affected in any way.

Everyone can see that the Queen intends to use this great purge to bring the city of Suramar, where masters gather and has always been independent from the world, under her control.

People say that the Starwind family has used some clever method unknown to outsiders to become the queen's support target.Even if the recognized waste Kule Starwind is not promoted to the front magistrate, the Starwind family will become a big family with considerable real power in Suramar City, where the political situation has been reshuffled after the storm is over. .

After all, Speaker Lloyd was charged with treason. Royal Advisor Ferguson would never dare to engage in favoritism and secretly protect the Starwind family, which was directly related to Speaker Lloyd, in such a huge turmoil.

If these are all speculations from the outside world and cannot be considered true, then the other thing is absolutely true.

Kuler Starwind's sister married into another prominent family in the city, the Lann family, a few years ago.

As we all know, the leader of the Rann family, Lord Dalton Rann, is the fifth member of the Magister Council of Suramar City. He is a genuine magister.At that time, this incident caused quite a stir in the city of Suramar. After all, with the marriage of two large families, it was almost impossible for any nobles to challenge their status under such a strong alliance.

But these are not important. What is important is that not long ago, Lord Dalton Lane's second son Bennett Lane, who is also Cooler Starwind's brother-in-law, found the Queen who had been searching for him for three years. A long-lasting prophet.

As a result, the Rann family received the Queen's gift and obtained a large fiefdom. Dalton Rann also secured a seat on the Magister's Council and was able to survive the Great Purge safely.It is very likely that he will become the Grand Magister after the purge, take charge of the Suramar Council, and become the chief official who helps the Queen control the Suramar region.

People speculated that perhaps it was because of their in-law relationship with the Lann family and the unclear relationship with the disgraced Speaker Lloyd that the Starwind family was not affected by the Great Purge.

If all these rumors come true, the Lann family will become the actual controllers of the Magister Council in the future, with the Starwind family assisting from the side. The two families loyal to the Queen's faction will uphold the Queen's will and rule the entire region.

Oculus had heard the rumors.

Therefore, he has no hope of recovering his research results and clearing his name.This turmoil is so big that the leaders of the Education Review Committee and the serving magisters have long been unable to protect themselves.

After hearing what Oculus said, Valtroy was furious. He roughly thrust the water glass into Oculus's hand, spilled the water all over his pants, and said angrily:

"You are so stupid! Then just watch Kule Xingfeng use your research results to become a famous 'great scholar' throughout the empire!"

Oculus sighed quietly and stopped talking.

But just as the silence slowly fermented, a third person's voice suddenly came from the room, a man's voice!

"Did you really research the stand-alone technology that allows the teleportation network to spread throughout the Suramar area?"

This voice does not sound old, but it contains the true calmness and peace that has been restored after all the vicissitudes of life. It sounds like a person who can't help but feel trust and goodwill.

Oculus and Valtroy were startled. They had never noticed that there was a third person in the lounge, and they hurriedly left.

Since the staff on duty at the evening transmission network platform had just started their day's work, the maintenance staff on day shift had already gone home, and the candlelight had long been extinguished.When the two came in, they were in a hurry to talk and did not relight the candles. They just used the moonlight by the window to see things clearly.

The person who spoke was sitting in the shadow of the house. It was obviously eerie and strange, but his calm voice made people frightened. The two perceptions were combined, which was extremely weird.

He seemed very relaxed, leaning lazily on the back of the chair, with his left arm leaning on the armrest of the seat. The end of his raised forearm, his slender left hand and his chin were slightly touching.

The moonlight only illuminated this part, and apart from the fiery red robe made of exquisite materials and exuding powerful magic waves, the slender left hand, and the perfectly contoured chin, the two of them could not see anything else clearly.

I don’t know if it’s because the moonlight tonight is too bright, but it makes the speaker’s skin look extremely fair.

No, it seems a bit too white, almost pale. Night elves don't have such skin color.

The night elves obviously have extraordinary night vision capabilities, but the two of them found that they could not clearly see the face shrouded in darkness.It was as if there was a mysterious veil surrounding him that was not allowed to be seen, enough to block out all inquiring eyes.

But it doesn't matter, just the robe is enough to prove that his status is not low.An ordinary mage would never be able to wear such a robe, at least at the level of a magician.

The two people hurriedly saluted and said, "I'm sorry, sir, we...we didn't know you were here."

"Answer my question, young Oculus."
