Lord: I have a skill talent tree

Ethan felt bitter!

Originally, he just wanted to shock the sixteen dukes and let everyone know that he was not easy to mess with, so that everyone would be cautious and dare not do anything wrong.

Let that safe route become a real safe route to buy some time for Maro City.

Then quietly develop the navy, wait for three to five years, have absolute maritime power, and then control the route firmly in your hands with a crushing situation.

But after Jack's interference, things have completely changed.

Imagine that when the sixteen dukes thought their fleets were invincible, someone relied on a sneak attack to wipe out your small fleet outside, and not even a single person was left alive.

What would you think?

Sad?

Sad?

Or angry?

No, none of them!

I was extremely happy.

Finally someone fired the first shot, so happy!

Then no matter what they do next, it will be just!

Maybe the next step is likely to be a full-scale war.

And Maro City is not ready for war.

This is true for both land and sea.

The two firebombs are the only naval forces in Maro City.

Not to mention the land forces, which are not as good as the other side in terms of numbers and quality. Once a real fight breaks out, the consequences can be imagined.

The most important thing is that once the war breaks out, the development of the situation will be completely out of control.

For Maro City, this completely violates the original intention of war to serve politics.

But for the opponents, they did not violate this principle.

It is equivalent to Jack's operation. Not only did he play Maro City's good cards to pieces, but he also took the initiative to give them a handle to make them a righteous army.

Ethan was really angry.

Of course, war depends on strength after all. If you win, all history can be said.

Ethan also believes that with his own strength, he can at least guarantee that he will not lose.

But even if Maro City wins, what's the point?

Because the original purpose was just to protect the interests of Maro City, but it turned into a war, and the battlefield was still in Maro City.

As long as the war breaks out, Maro City will be beaten to pieces and the population will drop sharply.

If we are not careful again and cannot control the situation, several strong men will leave one after another, and then fight each other.

The consequence is likely to be that everyone will beat each other to pieces.

In fact, due to the existence of the necromancer, Ethan cannot leave Maro City at all.

He does not want to experience the nightmare of the necromancer attacking his family again.

Therefore, the only thing that will be beaten to pieces is Maro City.

This is not the result Ethan wants.

He just wants to keep the conflict within a controllable range. Force is only a guarantee of political assumptions, and he does not want it to become a reality.

But now the situation is out of his control because the initiative is not in his hands.

However, he is not in a hurry to pursue the responsibility, but to solve the problem first.

What can be done now is to make the worst plan and mobilize all the people in Maro City.

So, Ethan, who has not attended the parliament for a long time, showed up in the parliament today.

Duke Lyon, who got the news, also showed up.

Other members of the parliament also came to participate in person.

Today is probably the most complete parliament in the past year.

At the meeting, Ethan reported the fact that the unknown fleet that invaded the waters of Maro City was attacked and wiped out today, and then analyzed the current situation. Finally, he mobilized everyone to send troops and prepare to defend their homes.

When everyone heard that the invading forces had been hit, they were happy because they finally got rid of their anger.

But when they heard that there might be a war, everyone was as wilted as eggplants hit by frost.

As for sending troops to defend their homes, that is impossible, impossible in this lifetime, don't even think about it.

Since no one voiced support, the parliament fell into silence, and the scene was very embarrassing for a while.

This was the first time Ethan had experienced such a thing.

At this moment, he was shaken in the belief he had always insisted on.

For a moment, he wanted to give up.

To be honest, even if he didn't stand up to do something practical for Maro City, he could live well just by taking care of himself, and there was no need to burden himself.

Just when Ethan was discouraged,

"Pa pa pa..."

Duke Lyon stood up while clapping and smiling.

He said nothing, but only showed his position with his actions.

As soon as the Duke of Lyon stood up and applauded, the forces cultivated by the Duke's Mansion in the parliament also followed the Duke of Lyon's footsteps, stood up and applauded together, and stood up together.

Of course, there were also forces from Ethan's faction, such as Sofia and the Tegru family, who stood up and applauded.

However, although some people stood up to show their positions, the total number was less than ten seats, and most people chose to sit quietly.

The scene was less embarrassing than before, but it seemed a bit ironic.

At this time, Charlton, the patriarch of the Casillas family, seemed calm, but he had already been sitting on pins and needles.

Because there are still many people in the parliament who have not expressed their positions, except for those who want to mix, a large part of them belong to his forces.

In other words, everyone is waiting for him to express his position.

But he didn't want to express his position at all. Now his family is still fighting with Arthur's dead family, and he has no energy to deal with other things.

If he stood up to support Ethan, he would really have to send troops.

Once a real fight breaks out, their family's hundreds of thousands of acres of pastures may be the first to suffer.

Therefore, he dared not make a decision casually.

But then again, given the current situation, if he did not clearly stand up to support Ethan, the consequences would be equally serious.

He knew the human style too well.

It is definitely not a joke to stabilize the country before fighting against foreign enemies. Even with the human temperament, the benefits would rather be given to outsiders than to domestic slaves.

If he did not support Ethan, Charlton had every reason to believe that Ethan would do nothing next and would only attack his own people.

When there are strong enemies outside and internal fighting in Maro City, the consequences can be imagined.

After hesitating again and again and weighing the pros and cons, Charlton also stood up and applauded with a smile on his face.

And as soon as he stood up, his several vassal families also stood up together.

Ethan never expected that the Casillas family would clearly support him even though they were in such a difficult situation, which rekindled his confidence.

Moreover, due to the participation of the Casillas family and its vassal families, the seats in the parliament have exceeded half.

That is to say, even if the remaining ten seats disagree, he can force the parliament to launch a defense war.

This gave him confidence, so he looked at the remaining people with a cold look.

These people were all members who launched the coup together. Their principle is that if there is a benefit, they cannot fall behind. If there is a disadvantage, whoever wants to do it will do it.

In addition, they support whoever is strong.

And whoever dares to damage their interests, they will be angry with that person.

Of course, they dare to do so because their families have certain strength.

Therefore, in this power game, relying on playing both sides, these ten families have made enough benefits.

But today, they seem to have no chance to play both sides.

Now there are two ways:

Either everyone gets on the warship together and shares the hardships!

Or offend the three largest forces in Maro City and wait to be liquidated.

The world is like this. Every crisis is a process of reshuffling.

In this crisis, they were the ones to be reshuffled.

Ethan did not rush them, but quietly waited for their decision...
