Xia Duo couldn't help but feel happy when he received the news of the alliance's victory. This time line fluctuation signal event was a perfect ending, but the next storm of severe attacks against demons had just begun.
Naturally, the capture of so many demons was not for nothing. They must pull out the carrots and bring them out of the mud. I don’t know whether some will be happy and some will be sad in the coming Northland!
In this incident, the only pity is that the alliance's mastery of time-related signal monitoring technology was exposed. If we want to easily catch the demon in such a ritual, I am afraid that the time-related magic laboratory will need to work harder.
However, Shado, who has obtained the memory of the prophet Puffin, knows one thing better, that is, the Illuminati's Elam rebirth plan - that is, the time-related ritual, has a window period.
Missing these two times would have greatly hindered the plan. Xia Duo speculated that the Illuminati would either give up the original plan and remain silent for a period of time, or they might make some big moves to make up for the two missed times.
He prefers the latter, so that the alliance will have the opportunity to eliminate the Illuminati in one fell swoop. No matter how strong the exposed power is, it is limited. On the contrary, the poisonous snakes hiding in the dark make people uneasy.
…
After returning to Evereska, Shado handed in the mission and was temporarily free. However, as far as he understood, most of the people in the action team were invited to stay at the alliance headquarters for a while to guard against any further movements by the demons.
However, because the alliance has mastered the time-related signal monitoring technology, it has been known to the demons. If the timeline fluctuation signal is detected next, there is no need to wait until it is completely located before taking action. Instead, people will be sent to investigate as soon as there is a signal.
Inside Yunfeng Manor.
Shado met with Oripus, who had just returned from Yeerlan, mainly to discuss matters related to the upcoming bidding for the Friendship Tower, and also to report on Oripus' work.
"The market in Ye'erlan has stabilized. With Metril as the center and the twenty-six cities in the three regions, our chamber of commerce's empty warehouses account for more than half of the market. However, the further outside, it becomes more and more difficult to develop. At present, we can only negotiate
I have completed advertising projects in more than 40 cities, and I am going to go to Cormanso to expand the market.”
"Okay, but I'll go to Yeerlan to do one last thing before leaving."
"My lord, please give me your instructions——"
"Don't be so serious. Just open a shop in Taivimansa and focus on the Void Warehouse for the time being. There may be some discomfort in Ye Erlan recently, so you should keep a low profile when you act."
"yes."
Oripus agreed without any consideration of the difficulty of the matter, but Shado was not inconsiderate. He told Oripus, "If you encounter obstacles in opening a store in Taivimansa, you can't solve it yourself."
Yes, you can go to the Nese Embassy to ask Ambassador Fermae for help. If even he can't solve the problem, then give up opening a store there for the time being."
"Well, I'll try my best to solve it myself."
After saying that, Oripus seemed to have thought of something, and quickly asked, "If you go to Cormansol in the future, will you also open a shop in Cormansol?"
"Yes, but there is no need to go there at the beginning. First, focus on your hometown of Sif City or other cities you think are suitable, and expand outward little by little. When there is resistance everywhere like Erlan now, then go to Cormansol to buy a store.
.”
In fact, with the case of Ye Erlan, when the Void Warehouse is sold domestically in the future, it will be enough to convince some people who can be persuaded. Those who cannot be convinced will still not accept it even if the case of Cormanso is added.
But at this time, the Void Warehouse can be a perfect excuse for Chateau to roll out city street light advertisements in Cormanso - that is, moire announcements used to assist prophecy.
If there is no business at all in Comanso, what reason is there to persuade the city of Comanso to carry out street lighting renovation? Is it just to do good things?
Even if Xia Duo really promised this, no Cormanthor elf would believe it, so he put up a superficial reason to promote the Void Warehouse, but in fact what he wanted to do more was to spread street light advertisements in various cities!
…
After talking about the Tower of Time business that Oripus was responsible for, Shado then mentioned the bidding for the Friendship Tower. In fact, the two of them had reached an agreement on this matter before, and now they were just emphasizing some principled issues -
—
"The bidding for the Friendship Tower takes into account all races and cultures as much as possible. If possible, I don't mind even if the four southern countries send people to bid.
"But we must pay attention to the differences and taboos between different races and cultures. For example, if they come from Ilfarang and Comanso, these two families must not be close together. There are also the four southern countries. If they come over, don't put them in the same place.
layer."
Xia Duo always remembered that he built this friendship tower for the purpose of multicultural integration, not to deliberately create conflicts, so those who have conflicts should not be put together.
The more important thing for the Friendship Tower is to serve tourists and allow them to experience different cultures of different races. As for the businesses, institutions, and organizations that settle in the Friendship Tower, of course they must obey this overall situation. If you are not willing, then don't come.
…
After a deep conversation, Oripus said goodbye and left. Chateau asked the manor housekeeper Rachel to give Oripus a box of home-produced maple sugar and a box of maple leaf wine.
Whether you taste it yourself or give it to others, it is a good gift.
However, in order to maintain several sales channels for Yunfeng Manor's products, Xia Duo can still keep relatively few products.
Perhaps when the Tower of Future Time brand is widely recognized in the North, the products here will no longer need to be sold at a low price, but can become so-called high-quality products through improved technology.
Of course, this is what Xia Duo thinks now. Things will change in the future. Maybe he won't think so in the future, or there may be no need to do so.
…
After Oripus left, Shado felt truly at ease, but only for a while, Badigal in Netheril was already convening a meeting of councilors.
It's now April, and this meeting is the first of the month. It is considered a formal meeting, and the topics have been notified earlier.
Of course, Xia Duo didn't need to be notified to know, because this matter was related to him.
Remote conferencing system.
Badigal's projected face looked solemn, "Now regarding whether Netheril agrees to the establishment of a standing mage group by the Northland Alliance, all members of Congress are invited to start voting!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone voted in favor. This was not surprising, because almost everyone voted in favor, including Xia Duo, and no one objected.
This one passed without any surprise.
In fact, before today, various congressmen already knew the situation on Everesca's side, and the temporarily recruited mages were waiting for them to confirm their opinions today!
Once Netheril agrees, the five major countries at the alliance level will all agree to establish a standing mage group. Then, when the mage group is officially established, the group of mages who were temporarily recruited but left behind to prevent the demons from continuing to cause trouble can
