Regarding the recent lively situation in the Yitel Federation, individual players are very happy.
Due to the more "free" atmosphere of the Federation, the number of players who choose to be born in the Federation of the Kingdom of Iter at the beginning is the largest among the three major forces.
Although many peace-loving players and life-oriented players have left, more foreign players have also poured in to compete for various well-paid 'hidden tasks' that have emerged due to the war.
In the eyes of most players, the chaotic situation in the Federation is a sign that a large-scale main plot is about to begin.
Although the situation is dangerous, it makes them even more enthusiastic about contact, and they are constantly trying to see if they can trigger some hidden tasks.
As for the indigenous people, it is not impossible that no one can see that the trade of skeleton laborers is the main factor causing the current tension in the Federation.
No matter in which era, there will always be some smart people who can see the key contradictions hidden behind the surface.
But it's one thing to understand it; it's another thing to be able to stop it.
Whether you hire ordinary people or buy slaves, the price/performance ratio is not as good as skeleton labor.
The latter has no physiological needs, can work around the clock, performs set tasks with almost no mistakes, and has a high tolerance for the working environment, ignoring noise and relatively minor magic radiation pollution.
Even after it is scrapped, the bone meal can be recycled and sold as the cheapest necromancy material.
The former two may be cheaper than the latter, but in the long run, hiring the latter is still the most profitable.
If the top management does not forcibly stop all trade in skeleton labor, or find ways to find large-scale cheap labor as a substitute, then no one can stop the coming of war.
But no matter which method is used, it is almost impossible to accomplish, especially when high-level professionals don't care about this phenomenon. Only some low-level people can't compete with the powerful nobles and big businessmen.
Indeed, relying on war to obtain labor seems very evil.
But the Federation has its own national conditions here——
Many small kingdoms are not of the same mind. They have long been eager to eliminate their neighboring countries so that they can obtain more resources. However, due to the Patikalan Covenant, they dare not go too far.
The "small-scale friction" between a group of low-level professionals and civilians is not excessive.
Moreover, the large amount of cheap labor brought by skeleton labor can play a huge role in promoting the rapid development of the construction industry.
For the various kingdoms of the Federation, the development of constructs is a very critical strategic goal.
In the face of development, everything must give way.
.….….
At this time, Anvis was already located in the most famous landmark building of the Laika Kingdom, the Emerald Palace.
It was a gorgeous palace made of a huge piece of complete emerald bedrock and created by the famous architect Robert Downer himself.
From the meticulously carved columns and terraces to the magnificent grand hall, clusters of emerald green hexagonal crystal columns can be seen everywhere on the pale white translucent amphibole base material of the palace, shining with charming brilliance.
A large number of green crystals form a special magic field. Professionals who practice meditation in the palace can achieve twice the result with half the effort, and even the probability of breakthrough is slightly increased.
Picking up a plate of black tea, Anvis sat in the waiting room, casually admiring the surrounding environment, his eyes indifferent, as if he was accustomed to the luxurious furnishings in the room.
The purpose of his trip was to meet the once legendary Prince Leka VI, now Leka VI Rock Leka.
As an agent of the Chamber of Commerce who invested tens of millions of gold coins in the Laika Kingdom at one time, Anvis got an unusual opportunity to meet with His Majesty the King.
It stands to reason that being the head of a branch of a chamber of commerce is not enough for the king to receive him in person. However, there are obviously some established and powerful forces behind the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce, which makes people have to be cautious.
This is also a step in his plan. Whether as a 'chamber of commerce representative' or a prophet, he should meet this prince whose life experience is like the protagonist of a heroic biography.
While Anvis was thinking, the waiter on the side was a little surprised when he saw his calm appearance.
After working in the palace for a long time, there are often expressions of surprise on the faces of foreign guests. There are very few people who can be as calm as Anvis.
Anyone who can do this is a big shot who has seen many more magnificent and spectacular buildings.
After changing his mind, the waiter's demeanor became a little more respectful.
After a while, a guard came in and motioned for Anvis to meet His Majesty.
Slightly different from what he had thought before, His Majesty Laika VI did not choose to receive him in the main hall, but in the royal study.
When the guards led Anvis into the room, the newly-appointed King seemed to be reviewing an official document. The rumored girl prophet was not with him at the moment, and she did not know where she was.
The magic quill that was writing stopped and flew back to the velvet box on the side. A blond young man in an emerald green robe and a platinum crown raised his head from behind the desk, staring at Anvis who entered with his green eyes.
"Dear His Majesty Laika VI, Your Excellency, Raphael, the federal head of the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce, it is a great honor to meet you."
Looking back at the blond young man in front of him with slightly dark circles but bright eyes, Anvis put his right hand on his chest, bowed slightly and said his new name.
This is the name he changed a few days ago, and it sounds like an angel.
"...The Black Ring Chamber of Commerce, I have heard of this name. It is a 'mysterious' chamber of commerce from the Gloria Empire. It previously bought the mountains of Lavelle to build a construction factory."
After a brief silence, Laika VI rubbed his temples and spoke slowly.
"I have a question, and I hope to get an answer from Sir Raphael. Your Excellency, you have come all the way from the Empire. What do you think of the Federation and the Kingdom of Laika?"
"According to some of our intelligence, the Federation is about to fall into war. With His Majesty here, the Kingdom of Laika can indeed guarantee peace of mind for a short period of time, but as the friction escalates, it is very likely that it will be forced to get involved as well."
Anvis shook his head, with an expression of compassion on his face, as if he couldn't bear the people who were about to fall into the flames of war.
"In order to help those helpless people, we hope to provide those in need with better weapons and equipment to reduce the unnecessary sacrifices of soldiers, so as to better protect their homes."
Listening to Anvis's matter-of-fact words, Laika VI was stunned for a moment.
Is the idea of making war fortune so high-sounding?
Although he was feeling weird, Laika VI felt a little relieved.
He had always been wary of the mysterious Black Ring Chamber of Commerce. If the other party's goal was indeed just money, then he didn't need to pay too much attention.
It would be nice if she was still around. At least she would have some of the prophecy results as a reference, but I don't know where she has been recently.
