His informants reported that the adventurers did not encounter any attack at all.

If it really was an attack, his spies also recorded this incident:

"I saw their tent literally flew up all of a sudden, so that everyone knew they were having a lewd party."

"They suspected that there were undercover minotaur agents among our menial staff, and they laid off a large number of our personnel."

"It was at that time that I was ordered to leave their team and could no longer monitor their actions..."

Of course, Edric would not completely trust his spies.

As for who was speaking more truthfully, the adventurers or their support staff... he doubted both.

Relatively speaking, it is relatively easy to place an undercover agent among a large group of 40 people.

After all, most of the 209 servants came from the city of Thessaloniki, which was directly governed by Governor Edric.

But the people brought by the lords under his command were basically people selected by their families, so it was difficult for Governor Edric to place spies among them.

At this time, we have to send our own affairs officer to the local area to conduct a detailed investigation.

"As you wish!"

Although Valentine didn't want to stay in this gloomy place for a second, he tried his best to hide his fear.

He even seemed very excited when accepting the task, as if he was very eager for it.

Seeing that the governor did not give him any additional requirements, he immediately walked out of the hall and began to carry out the governor's tasks overnight.

Although Valentine seemed very attentive, Edric tried to be suspicious of anyone who might deceive him.

He couldn't say that he had much trust in the newly promoted officer in front of him.

He also sent several other officers to investigate in different locations, such as Jules and Erica's territories.

However, they and Valentine were unaware of each other's existence to prevent them from colluding with each other and deceiving the governor.

146. The Eve of the Decisive Battle

Lu Heng sat on the towering Kongwu Monastery, overlooking the boulder forest under the moonlight.

It was not quiet at the foot of the mountain. The 1000 human refugees he rescued through the portal were slowly making a bonfire and setting up a camp.

Many of them are disabled, and even if their lives are saved by Lu Heng's healing stone, they often have difficulty in moving.

Even the most basic tasks such as fetching water, making fire and preparing food often require help from companions.

Fortunately, the humans in the commune have often gone through the test of blood and fire, and their cooperation is closer than that of ordinary humans.

The ratmen of the Stone Forest Monastery also spontaneously collected some food for them, allowing these people who were struggling to survive to live a better life.

In fact, before joining the commune, most of these 1000 people were just ordinary farmers, not soldiers.

Of course, the division between old farmers and soldiers was how the commune was divided.

For the empire, there are only untrained rebellious peasants and well-trained rebellious peasants.

The only difference between them is whether they are easy to kill.

It would be even more tragic if they did not die on the battlefield, because the leader would slowly torture and kill them.

It is a great fortune for them to have the opportunity or to come to this place temporarily away from the killing.

This also made them extremely grateful to the Tauren Overlord.

However, more people remained in the commune's last base.

For example, Lundstol has already made up his mind to hold on there to the end, and even if he has to retreat, he will stay until the last batch.

Lu Heng originally planned to teleport them over during the day, but the battle was too intense, and the teleportation did not begin until after the sun set.

Although this aid encountered various difficulties, Lu Heng's choice for these humans was still to help whenever possible.

After all, Lu Heng was a human being before Lucius summoned him to this world. There was no need for him to abandon everything just because he traveled through time.

At the same time, he helps humans not just out of empathy for them.

Even if we only consider the interests, these humans are the pillars of the new society created by Lu Heng.

According to current experiments, every human being has the potential to perform magic.

It's just that they have always lacked the props that allow them to perform magic.

But Lu Heng is changing all that. He will let "Chloe Industries" produce more psychic simulation stones to make magic popular among the masses.

What's more promising is that everyone can use the magic-absorbing ribbon to work together to maintain the magic defense barrier or charge the portal.

So can we gather everyone's strength and upgrade those who have not awakened their exclusive arts?

It may be difficult to upgrade from a low level to a high level, but it may be much easier to upgrade from level zero to a low level.

In other words, among the 1000 refugees that Lu Heng has rescued so far, there may be new Rosa, Barbaris or even Chloe.

Then his magic industry will surely snowball and have a large number of talents.

And in the New City Republic, where local power is highly decentralized, Lu Heng finally has the space to truly display his talents.

As long as he can overcome the harsh environment there and the potential conspiracy of the empire, Lu Heng will get a base for large-scale production.

Of course, Lu Heng not only considered the long-term benefits, even in the short term, saving these people was very worthwhile.

Because these old farmers have full fighting spirit.

Judging from the number of people alone, especially the number of spellcasters, the commune should be at an absolute disadvantage.

Even though the equipment provided by Lu Heng greatly shortened the gap in strength between the two, the results were still very different.

The core reason why the commune has been able to accept it until now is that they can accept greater casualties.

The situation is different for the Leader's Legion. Those troops are their capital for survival, so naturally they dare not fight too hard.

On the battlefield of the Commune, 3000 of the original 1000 people were killed, and about 500 were killed or captured.

With fewer personnel, their logistical pressure becomes less.

The remaining 1500 men were the Commune's best fighters, and as the wounded were evacuated, they were able to devote themselves to the battle without distraction.

Tomorrow is difficult.

Lu Heng has observed the movements of the imperial army through the landing point vision.

It is almost certain that tomorrow will be the moment of the decisive battle. If only 1000 people are brought out, the other 500 people will most likely not be able to be saved.

So Lu Heng planned to overload everyone tomorrow and get all 1500 people out directly.

This will affect the combat effectiveness to a small extent, but the commune's last stronghold is still a certain distance away from the mountain fortress of Kongwu Monastery.

Once the enemy starts to surround this side again, Lu Heng and his men's combat effectiveness can be restored.

It was also on this night that Battle Sister Diana and her companions flew back to the Sky Dance Monastery.

Perhaps it won't be long before it will be Lu Heng and the harpy witches' turn to face Governor Edric's army of leaders.

Fortunately, Lu Heng still has a chance to continue to attract people.

Helena, the headmaster of the Sky Dance Monastery, just handed him a magic scroll and told him an important message:

"The three major campuses on the West Coast have already elected three co-governing deans, and they have acknowledged that you are the dean of Shanhai College."

"You have been granted the Spiritual Scroll. Prepare to participate in the next Academy State Meeting."

The position that Lu Heng obtained was not a small one. In terms of the empire, it was a bit like a provincial governor.

At least in theory, every monastery in the area under the jurisdiction of Shanhai College is under the jurisdiction of Lu Heng.

Although Lu Heng's promotion seemed a bit too fast, but if you think about it carefully, it is not without reason.

After all, in the entire Shanhai College area, only the Suspension Bridge Monastery is still in operation.

This arrangement made by the three co-governing heads seemed to encourage Lu Heng to quickly recover the lost territory.

This must have come too suddenly, causing Lu Heng to speak a little stiffly:

"Thank you for your trust, three deans."

The so-called head of the academy is the highest leader of the Luna Academy.

However, after the capital of this country was attacked and massacred by the Empire, the remaining forces in various places were in a state of fighting each other.

The restoration organizations in various places may not necessarily want to unite, but the territories of Luna Academy are scattered across the East Continent and the South Continent, making it difficult to coordinate.

Even just on the west coast of the East Continent, it is difficult to choose a clear center for national restoration.

The Shanlei College, Maritime Business College and Gengzhan College here each have their own strengths, and it is difficult to find which one has a clear advantage.

In this case, how should the head of the National Assembly be elected?

After a long debate, the three of them finally came to the conclusion that they would co-govern the House on the West Coast.

In some special cases, there is more than one head of Luna Academy, and sometimes there are even four heads working together.

But if there are too many heads of the hospital, a situation of division is likely to occur.

The three heads of the West Coast academies had already worked together during the last counterattack against the Leader Legion.

The reason why they were reluctant to publicly declare themselves as co-heads of the government was actually because they were concerned about the remaining influence of the Luna clan in other regions.

The Luna people on the west coast claim to be the head of the academy in the East Continent. What if the Luna people in the South Continent do not recognize them?

People might even think you are creating division.

But the West Coast is already on the brink of extinction, so no one cares anymore.

They will grab at any straw they can.

A newly emerging minotaur like Lu Heng was directly promoted to the head of the school district and could directly participate in meetings that decided the future direction of the country.

Helena also said to him softly:

"The meeting will start soon. You can thank them directly."

Lu Heng nodded slightly, walked into the conference room with Helena, and spread out the psychic scroll in his hand.

This scroll, like the Timenia Psychic Potato, is a magical item that allows for remote communication.

But the psychic scroll has a huge advantage: it does not lose its effectiveness after a few hours, but can be used for more than a month.

This can avoid the situation where the main person in charge of each war zone has to run around and miss the opportunity at the critical moment of the war.

Due to this superior performance, Lunayuanbang has long used psychic scrolls instead of psychic potatoes to achieve long-distance communication.

But the psychic scroll also has a disadvantage, it requires the support of the psychic base station to work.

Previously, the Luna Academy's psychic base station was built in their capital, New Luna City.

As the capital was massacred, the existing base stations were destroyed.

It took the three deans on the West Coast a long time to rebuild the psychic base station at Shanlei College so that the psychic scrolls could be used again.

Their efforts paid off, and at the scheduled meeting time, the psychic scroll emitted a soft light.

147. Power abhors a vacuum

Lu Heng and Helena also saw three shadows appearing one after another in the void.

The first thing that caught my eye was a charming young woman with an impressive cup size.

She has beautiful long brown-red hair, delicate skin like white snow, and she is wearing only a seemingly simple white bra.
