Seven hundred and eighty-eighth chapter decisive battle (fourteen)
As a super empire, the land of Ain Rodant, the country of mages, is not large, and most of the country's population is concentrated in the capital city of magic, Ain Rodant.
For thousands of years, there has been the existence of the Cloud City in the sky above Ainluo. Initially, it was only the residence and laboratory of Master Gaohuan. It was an isolation zone to prevent habitual explosion sparks from spreading to other areas.
With the popularization of compulsory education for mages, the number of spellcasters in Ainluo has increased year by year. The number of immortals of the older generation has accumulated more and more, and the number of year-round residents in the Cloud City has increased.
With the continuous expansion, Yunzhong City has become more than just an experimental area for high-level mages. 10% of the total population of spellcasters live in it, and more than 50% of magicians have their own residences and laboratories in Yunzhong City.
, all academic societies have mage towers on top of them.
Even so, it is still called the "Tower of the Clouds" in official channels, even though it was a real city hundreds of years ago, just because everyone is used to calling it that.
It is no longer just a research area and a mage tower. All the people of Ain Rodant can look up and see the city in the clouds every day. Its existence is a symbol of the prosperity and stability of the entire country.
"Never challenge a wizard with a wizard tower."
This seems to have become common sense in the multiverse, and its extension may be...
"Never challenge Ainluo and the Cloud Tower head-on, unless you plan to deal with thousands of top mage towers and tens of thousands of magicians at the same time."
Perhaps the Tower of Clouds does not have any famous achievements, perhaps the world has forgotten that it is a mobile city in the clouds, but it is precisely its power that makes any existence with an IQ above the horizontal line unable to do so from the beginning.
Will consider challenging Yunzhong City head-on.
"Attack Eloin, the capital of the country of mages? There are towers in the clouds, tens of thousands of wizards, endless magic reserves, massive war puppets and magic creations, countless plane gates and spell reserves. Then
It is the combat strength of most of the country of mages."
Even the most reckless king would not consider attacking the capital of the country of mages. The city in the clouds is not only the home and residence of the mages, but also a symbol of the peace and stability of the entire country.
The only madman who challenged him was still the "Fool King" Oros, and from the current point of view, this arrogant provocation to involve the country of mages is probably the wisest decision in this world.
"Ten years ago, the inner circle councilors had a private agreement with Oros, the late king of Bayer. When necessary, we will dispatch the Cloud Tower for cross-sea support, and the Bayer Empire will also be responsible for all our losses.
Not only that, they will also open the treasury and give out tens of millions of gold coin-level magic materials including at least two hundred kilograms of demonized fine gold, one artifact, and ten sub-artifacts as a price."
In the Hall of Truth in the Tower of Clouds, Wizard Rhine explained to other wizards the legality of Cloud City's entry into other countries.
A small piece of information that only the members know. The Parliament of Truth is essentially divided into inner circle members and outer circle members. The latter are larger in number and change frequently, but the former is hidden among the latter. Only the inner circle members know the other inner circle members.
The identity of environmental councillors.
Inner ring councilors do not have any additional privileges, they are just given more trust and more intelligence support.
Amara of Star Revelation and "Miracle Prayer" Rhine are the few inner-circle councilors whose identities have been made public.
"I heard that Oros was dead. I was naturally scrapped because of the agreement. But when Roland came to me with the agreement and the authorization letter from Emperor Helent, I really couldn't believe it... They must have hooked up before.
Together."
The previously empty Hall of Truth was now mostly full. Many names that had been forgotten by the world for hundreds of years, those ghosts that shocked the world hundreds and thousands of years ago, returned to the world with hoods and masks.
Even though Master Rhine was calm and composed, his vest was covered in cold sweat at this time. Some of these retired seniors, who had long since retired, were members of the Council of Truth who had taken office. Some were authorities in a certain field, and they usually didn’t know where they were hiding. This mage
As soon as the city moved, everyone suddenly jumped out.
Perhaps legally he does not need to accept questioning from retired seniors, but just like younger generations who always cannot hold their heads up in front of the old founders of clubs and companies, graduates who are working are a little panicked when they see their former class teacher, and are looked at by these
The old mages who grew up there are watching, and it really doesn’t make sense if they don’t give a suitable explanation.
“…….So, Little Rhine, after you discussed with the other inner-circle councilors, you started Cloud City, and with a little favor, you sold Cloud City? Do you know that after so many years since the founding of Ain Rodante, Cloud City
The tower has never moved. Its stability is the foundation of stability in the hearts of all Ainrodantes. Now panic is spreading among the civilians..."
The black-haired gentleman wearing a one-eyed mask looks very young, with dangerous starlight flashing in his pupils. He is the senior brother of Rhine's mentor and the former Inner Circle Speaker "Almighty Hands" Noah.
Hearing this, Rhine also suddenly realized. No wonder these reclusive seniors jumped out of the holes one by one. It turned out that they usually lived in seclusion among the common people in the capital. When they saw the movement of Yunzhong City, they naturally couldn't sit still.
"He, this is probably what Roland expected. Young people are to be feared, and young people are to be feared. But just for this thing, you let the Cloud Tower, which has never moved, enter another country..."
The words were not finished, but everyone could see that Noah was a little dissatisfied.
At this point, even Rhine was a little depressed. He finally understood why Roland had to emphasize the confidentiality between Mobile Cloud City. The reaction of these seniors was probably what he expected. The Mobile Mage City was also very
Naturally, they were dragged onto the battlefield.
It is true that scheming against allies is not a glorious thing, but scheming against allies can enhance the strength of allies... At this time, the emotions in Rhine's heart were very complicated, and at this moment, it was also his obligation to answer the questions of his seniors.
And why this choice was made, wasn't it already thought out from the beginning?
"No, it's not just these."
Rhine thought for a long time and organized his words. His next words may very well determine the attitude of his seniors.
"This is a struggle for survival. Although the country of mages is a country of mages, most of the residents here are still humans, so we must go to war."
There is no long speech, and there is no reason. It is meaningless to play with the language skills of the doctors, and the rhetoric will make them disgusted. "Because we are human beings, for the continuation and prosperity of the race, we must go to war." Butt said
The location determines the head, which is very realistic.
"Is it necessary?"
Noah nodded slightly, this answer was expected and the only acceptable one.
Continuing the inheritance of mysteries? Exploring the endless truth? Please survive first. For any ethnic group, survival crisis is always the first priority. The abyss lords have really gained the dominance of the plane. Can the mages still maintain their independence in the past?
.
When Noah asked "Is it necessary?", he actually recognized this reason. After all, these old mages are not deaf. Living in seclusion does not mean that they cannot receive information and are isolated from the world. On the contrary, they sneak into the mortals and let them understand the current situation.
Understand the situation more thoroughly.
Is it necessary? Isn't it necessary for the country of mages to participate, because from the beginning, no one can escape this war. Hiding in the ivory tower and trembling is equivalent to handing the butcher's knife to the opponent.
Noah asked, is the current situation reaching a decisive battle? Is it necessary to use the Cloud Tower?
The firm will flashed in Rhine's eyes. Activating the Cloud Tower was equivalent to tying the entire country of mages to the battlefield. This was not a decision he could make alone, and he had already recognized this decision from the bottom of his heart.
"It is necessary. Only by participating in the war and achieving victory will we have enough voice and status in the new era. For the inheritance of the mystery and the dignity of spellcasters, as the strongest group and vested in this plane
For those who benefit, we must show results that match our status."
The rational mages did not talk about any reason at all, nor did they talk about politics or significance. They directly discussed future interests like cunning businessmen.
"The Hades side is more suitable for us than both chaos and order. This is a resolution approved by all members of the Parliament of Truth."
The three camps of Hades, Order, and Chaos have been destined to decide the outcome of this holy war. Since it is destined to be impossible to close the country and escape, it is better to choose a position early, attack with all strength, and gain sufficient results.
If they had not seen this clearly, no matter how nice Roland's words were, the Council of Truth would have ignored it. Agreements and such were meaningless without sufficient benefits to support them.
Noah closed his eyes and meditated, falling into silence, but a special exchange took place between the old mages. After a while, Noah opened his eyes, still smiling.
"Then, little Rhine, we old bones will have to disturb you for a while."
Rhine was stunned at first, and then he was overjoyed. With the addition of these old mages, the Council of Truth would immediately become several times stronger.
At this time, Noah quietly handed over a piece of paper on the table, which contained only a special spell for communication.
"Maybe you can use this, this is..."
Listening to the name passed by Noah, Rhine's pupils dilated instantly and his heart almost stopped. It turned out that the real trump card of the country of wizards, the older generation of wizards, was still in his hands, and his group of congressmen had no idea about it.
The old mages disappeared into the auditorium one by one, with only Noah and a few others remaining to act as a hub of communication. The Cloud Tower, whose strength had increased dramatically, accelerated forward and arrived at the battlefield faster than expected.
And when the Cloud Tower fell from the clouds, looking at the chaotic battlefield in front of them, even the masters who had experienced countless battles were panicking, and they were even more grateful that they had used their trump card.
The Tower of Clouds entering the battlefield also represents that more than half of the combat power of the entire Kingdom of Mage has been fully engaged in this struggle for survival that can only be won but not lost.
If we look into the past, such as the foolish hindsight of the country of mages in "History", we can see that at the core of the changes in the mages' attitude towards this war, it is still that person.
At this time, "that person" finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the early arrival of the Cloud Tower. The Sofokli in front of him was really too difficult to deal with, but the ability that Sofokli had now revealed was not enough.
It proved his conjecture.
"Sophocles, you are not a devil at all." (To be continued.)
