Even a rural bank that is usually guarded by only one person can rely on the power and support of the World Tree to mobilize a combat squadron to deal with any situation in the blink of an eye.
Unless the robber is a powerful person or a gang, facing an elf with more than a hundred people and can expand to a team of thousands at any time, they can only fall into the hands of the bank. No one else can do it anyway.
What bad things are done under the eyes of the gods?
If there really is a strong person who defies nature...such a person can live a comfortable life without robbing a bank.
But it is impossible to expect the robbers to become regulars and live peacefully from now on. Many of them have engaged in kidnapping and extortion and other things, and they have started to compete with others in a battle of wits and courage.
But this is just like robbing goods. The difficulty is very different from being able to directly grab the money. So although the focus of the vicious incident has shifted, the overall number of cases has decreased. This phenomenon makes these people in power wonder whether they should cry.
You should still laugh.
In a word, the bank of the gold coin goddess Ke Yin has a huge impact on the entire Lost Land. In the eyes of this group of people at the top of power, the bank is a monster that is harder to control and more terrifying than a forum that promotes the circulation of intelligence.
.
This is also why there is no god behind the forum, but there is a goddess behind the bank. Although this statement is told to a certain traveler, he will say that this is just the speculation of later generations, rather than the distinction between important and unimportant two different systems.
boundary.
But a certain magician said at this time that the rise of the gold goddess and the complete erosion of the entire land by banks were just part of a big plan!
is it possible?
This... seems really possible.
In fact, there has always been some kind of hidden force operating under the surface. Of course, it is impossible for these people at the top of the power in the land to be unaware. But with the power in their hands, they cannot figure out the truth.
This is very scary to think about.
Now that everything has been exposed, even if they just want to accuse a certain magician of being so absurd, deep down, they feel that this is the truth.
But! But what surprised them the most was the next development.
The Ninth Power Plan has been implemented so far. Although there are too many details that are difficult for outsiders to grasp, the development of the bank and the growth of the Gold Coin Goddess have all fallen into the eyes of everyone. But if all of these are the factors that prompted the opening of the Gate of the Abyss, then
What will everyone think?
When the actual locations of the eight permanent abyss gates were revealed in front of everyone, the information about their respective guardians was also unfolded in front of everyone without any concealment. The question of the ninth abyss gate became
A heavy pressure is on everyone's shoulders.
You can choose to close the door at the southern border of the Sulitang Empire, but this will only postpone the situation temporarily. Sooner or later, another complete abyss door will be opened elsewhere.
If the devil still discovers that door first, then it will become the bridgehead for the abyss to attack the lost land, and once again we will face a war with huge sacrifices.
But this development is just an inference. Many in the audience are taking chances and thinking that the door to the abyss should be closed. Maybe the abyss will just disappear. Then there will be no subsequent trouble for them.
.
If you agree not to close the door to the abyss, then you must find another way to block it so that the two sides can no longer communicate freely. Just like the eight abyss doors that have existed for a long time.
Those eight gates were handed down as secrets in the records of their respective empires. Although there is no conclusive evidence to prove it, everyone still holds the attitude of preferring to believe that it exists rather than that it does not exist.
On the one hand, it is also because there are too many things that are unrecorded but are facts. Many of them still exist to this day, and there is nowhere to deny them even if you want to.
Therefore, the attitude of the Midi people towards this kind of thing is quite open, and they will not deny it blindly. Unless doing so has its political propaganda significance.
Now that I have admitted in my heart that those eight doors do exist, then the corresponding guardians also exist. This is not unacceptable.
Therefore, the conclusion is very likely to be the same as what the magician in front of them said. What they should do is not to close the ninth door of the abyss. Instead, they should find a way to find a guardian for this door, or other alternative methods.
.
The Gate Twin Towers plan was finally revealed to everyone.
After everyone listened, they had only one thought: the layout of this preface is really damn long!
Questioning whether the two towers of the gate can replace the effectiveness of the guardian? This magician has done a detailed investigation and has also found a way to simulate the duties of the guardian. He almost has to pat his chest to guarantee that these two towers can definitely play a role.
its proper function.
But for the two pragmatic emperors and their ministers, the most important thing was that they could do it. That was to block the door so that the devil could not pass through it and freely enter and exit the world on both sides.
But such a simple request is not the reason why they must easily agree to give up control of the Twin Towers!
That's right! As a group of people at the pinnacle of power in Midland, after hearing such a grand plan and the necessity and importance of the Twin Towers of the Gate, it is only natural for people to want to control such a thing in their hands.
This is not just the power to control whether to let demons pass or let humans enter the abyss. It has a deeper meaning. This is to raise the status of the empire from the pinnacle of the human world to another level and enter another world of power.
Tickets.
But! But, are they able to eat this big cake?
Control the magician in front of you and make him pour out everything in his stomach?
Not to mention that the people present are all pampered aristocratic lords, and the only extraordinary person who can fight is also on the same position as the magician. Just call in all the guards waiting outside, and you can deal with this person who can compete with the guardian lord.
A confrontational man?
I'm afraid that with all the people in the airship bundled together, there won't be enough for him to fight alone.
Now that you know the plan, rule out this man from working alone! Anyway, from the perspective of the beings behind him, the most important thing is to get things done, not that it has to be done in the hands of a specific person.
This kind of operation is nothing out of the ordinary for a group of nobles who have experienced struggles and are sophisticated. Even if the targets are different, as long as they also have desires and needs, there is room for manipulation...
Is it really?
The reason for such self-doubt is that everyone present thought of the same problem. That is, if you want to do the aforementioned things, you must have a prerequisite, which is to win the war against the abyss.
However, in order to win the current war against the abyss, it seems that the things provided by the magician in front of me must be used.
At the beginning, the old man who served as the commander-in-chief of the coalition said that when the Lord of the Abyss came and the gods did not show up for some unknown reason, they were able to stop the Lord of the Abyss's manpower, which was far less than the opponent's number. This pair of ordinary people
The military is a terrifying threat.
Only with the support of the Magic Tower can he have the strength to compete. This is why he began to think about building towers all the way north to the Gate of the Abyss, a strategy that uses defense as an offense.
If they do not plan to use such tactics, they will have to find a way to solve the problem caused by the number of Abyss Lords.
People or things that can compete with gods-level beings are extremely rare. In an era, if there is a person who can rival gods, it can be called a golden age. If such a powerful person can be found everywhere,
Or, what is the significance of the existence of gods?
Of course, the empire has the means to fight it, but there are not many, and there are many restrictions. They cannot be used casually, and they are not free of cost. Perhaps precious materials have been consumed, or perhaps more valuable materials have to be sacrificed.
things.
According to common sense, the Lord of the Abyss should be dealt with by the gods of the Lost Lands, and this pressure should not be placed on mortals. Perhaps saying so is detrimental to the character of an empire.
But what is different from what ordinary people think is that the emperors who are at the extreme level of power know very well that there are limits to 'manpower'. Even if one day in the future, the current problems can be solved with the passage of time, but
There is no solution at the moment.
Admitting this is not considered a failure, but it will help you find another way and find a solution faster. Instead of sticking to the solution that cannot solve the problem until it is too late.
Since the beginning of the war, not to mention that the gods have not appeared, even the guardian lord who is most active in fighting against external enemies seems to have disappeared. People can't help but wonder, has this god died?
This war reveals strangeness from all aspects. These capable people at the top of power have long been aware of this matter. They just can't find the answer, and no one can answer it.
Now that everything has been revealed, all the clues have been perfectly closed, this war that should have been a huge headache is destined to end, and will end with the victory of the lost side. This kind of happy ending makes everyone feel very unhappy.
The reason is simple. During the entire process, the only thing humans can do is to sacrifice. And it is a unnecessary sacrifice that could have been avoided.
With the respect of the empire, when have they ever been so angry as a little daughter-in-law?
I thought I was the protagonist who did my duty, and everything I did was for righteousness and everything. But when the truth was revealed, I realized that I was just a sidekick, and no matter how much I paid, it was a joke.
Normal people cannot accept this kind of thing, let alone a group of gentlemen who have held power for a long time and enjoy the treatment of superiors.
At this time, Count Guha, the youngest among all the nobles, couldn't help it anymore. He jumped out and said: "Your Excellency, the Great Magician, what evidence do you have to prove everything you said? Although this whole story sounds like there is nothing wrong with it.
However, there are too many things that we cannot verify. You should be able to understand that the more important the matter, the more definite evidence is needed when making a decision, rather than just relying on a few stories."
