Lord Wizard

Chapter 211 Forbearance

Nero laughed.

"Okay, go ahead!"

Lin Meng nodded, then said to Bai Chongshan, "After Nero captures those bandits, how about we leave them to Chief Bai to deal with personally?"

"Your Majesty Lin Meng..."

Bai Chongshan was eager to say something, but considering the current situation, he could only bite the bullet and say, "They're just some bandits, nothing special. Escorting them back from the border would be a waste of money and supplies. Please, Lord Nero, handle it yourself!"

Lin Meng stared at him with a half-smile and said, "That makes sense. Then there's no need to send him over; just kill him on the spot!"

After saying that, he added, "I've also heard that General Dele has been guarding the frontier for many years. The border is bitterly cold, so I plan to have him relieved of his post with General Mien and transfer him to the Kingdom of Aden to quell the rebellion. Now, the former Kingdom of Aden is nothing but a rabble. General Dele's mission to Aden would be a great achievement in suppressing the rebellion, and it will surely be recorded in his resume in the future!"

"The military and political orders of the Frost Kingdom have been handed over to Your Majesty, and they are naturally at Your Majesty's disposal!"

By this point, Bai Chongshan could clearly see that Lin Meng was deliberately provoking him.

The reason they abandoned guarding the Frost Capital was because they couldn't withstand Lin Meng's large-scale magic. They knew that even if they tried to defend it, they might not be able to hold it. Now that the plan has begun, there's no reason to stop.

Lin Meng may be transferred, but whether he can actually be transferred depends on his abilities.

"Very well, Chief Bai, please go and rest. I will personally go to the border!"

Lin Meng smiled.

"You... how can Your Majesty, with your divine body, repeatedly interfere in human affairs!"

A hint of panic flashed in Bai Chongshan's eyes. With Lin Meng personally stepping in, even the tens of thousands of troops under Dele's command might not dare to oppose him.

"Gods, Chief Bai should know that wizards are just ordinary people who are stronger than themselves. They've only been deified on the continent of Constantine. If they truly believed they were gods, they would have died long ago!"

Lin Meng laughed dismissively.

The wizards in the original world might still have some considerations, but in the real world, even formal wizards are just ordinary people with some special characteristics.

Some wizards might not even be able to defeat some professionally trained ordinary people, which is far less the case in the wizarding world, so naturally they wouldn't think of themselves as gods.

Faced with Lin Meng's words, Bai Chongshan was at a loss for words. In Constantine Continent, a place where wizards were extinct, being targeted by a formal wizard was a matter of whether it was a blessing or a curse.

……

After returning from Lin Meng's side, Bai Chongshan gazed at the distant palace, speechless for a long time.

"Your Majesty, how should we respond? Once Lin Mengzhen is indeed heading to several border regions, even if we replace Dele and the others, the others may not dare to resist. This is also due to our unlimited mythologizing of official wizards over the years, which has made ordinary soldiers afraid to resist the mythologized wizards!"

An elder who had accompanied Bai Chongshan to visit Lin Meng asked.

"What else can we do? That kid Lin Meng has gone this far. Let's just launch our attack ahead of time. I don't believe that a wizard like him can take care of the entire kingdom."

The impatient Prince Min of the royal family spoke directly.

"Lin Meng is waiting for us right now, and do you think this is the war of the past? That we can kill the enemy leader in a surprise attack?"

Even if we exert all our strength, we cannot keep Lin Meng here. As long as he is alive, he will be enough to dominate the entire continent.

Otherwise, do you think that with the limited military strength of the Zichen Kingdom, you can force us to abandon the capital?

Bai Chongshan shook his head and refused the middle-aged man's suggestion.

"If this won't work and that won't work, I think I might as well just wait to die!"

The middle-aged man said somewhat indignantly.

"Prince Min, how dare you speak to the King like that?"

The elder of the clan drank.

"Alright, stop arguing. Send the order to Deler: delay as long as you can. If you can't delay any longer, then start a riot. I don't believe Lin Meng will actually go and quell each rebellion!"

Bai Chongshan stopped the argument from erupting, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.

The possibility of directly confronting Lin Meng is slim, so the only way to stall him is to damage the foundation of the kingdom. For the Frost Kingdom, every day that is delayed increases its chances of victory.

……

"Bai Chongshan and the others haven't made a move?"

In the palace garden, Lin Meng asked slowly.

"Aside from sending out some messages, there hasn't been much movement. As for those who sent the messages, they have all been apprehended by us."

Hel responded from behind Linmon.

"Old fox, have Mark guard the capital and keep a close eye on the Frost royal family. I'm going to Quhe City!"

"Does Your Majesty intend to personally force the generals of the Frost Kingdom to relinquish their military power?"

"As long as I stay in this capital, they won't dare to make any rash moves. They only have a chance if I leave, right?"

"Is Your Majesty trying to lure the snake out of its hole?"

"I'd like to see how long they can hold out. As long as I disperse a few of the Frost Kingdom's garrisons, they'll definitely start to rebel. Once they do, I'll have a legitimate reason to eliminate them!"

Lin Meng laughed, saying that the Frost Royal Family were single-mindedly trying to stall until their wizard arrived, believing that once they did, they could turn the tide of the entire situation.

But little did he know that he didn't take the wizards of the Frost Kingdom or the two wizards of the Aden Kingdom seriously at all.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

After speaking, Hel hesitated for a moment before advising, "Your Majesty, Director Karin still feels that the company is facing numerous crises recently. You should leave the Continent of Constantine as soon as possible."

This is, after all, a peripheral continent. The output of one country here may not be comparable to that of a province on the central continent. Developing there after this period will be the same!

This wasn't the first time; even when Locke learned that Lin Meng had gone to the Continent of Constantine, he came to talk to him about this issue.

But he brushed them off with necessary excuses.

"You don't understand!"

Lin Meng shook his head without explaining anything.

They might have guessed that Lin Meng's rise might be related to the continent of Constantine, but they wouldn't think too much about it.

To become a formal wizard, not to mention Lin Meng, even they themselves have their own secrets to some extent.

Perhaps in their eyes, just like Mu Yi did back then, they thought Lin Meng had obtained a magical artifact, which led to his rapid rise to power.

……

Lin Meng's actions in Quhe City were a deterrent, and the generals sent by the royal family to garrison the city only received the news that Lin Meng had already left the capital after the news reached the royal city.

From then on, Bai Chongshan continuously remotely controlled the various territories within the country. Occasionally, there were rebellions, with some trying to keep Lin Meng busy, while they themselves were constantly plotting how to regain control of the royal city.

Two months passed in the blink of an eye.

Just as Lin Meng was getting impatient with Bai Chongshan's lack of action, news came from the Kingdom of Aden: the wizard Aaron of the Kingdom of Aden was about to set foot on the continent of Constantine.

This news immediately caused a huge uproar, and even the Kingdom of Aden, which had been suppressed by the Kingdom of Zichen, began to have restless thoughts.

Even the Frost Kingdom, which has been under constant pressure from Lin Meng over the past two months, has experienced another change.

"Our chance has come!"

After receiving confirmation from his informant that Aaron had indeed arrived, Bai Chongshan was overjoyed. At this moment, he was determined to reclaim everything he had lost during this time.
