Lord of War

  The Empire of Saint Joles is a theocratic empire. The biggest feature of this country is the "state of believers". Therefore, it is almost impossible to infiltrate and instigate rebellion in this country. Even their old rival Maggie Empire can only have a certain degree of influence on the lower classes and business people at most, so the information obtained is obtained. Usually very limited.

  In other words, it is often only when there is a large-scale action in the Saint-Joles Empire that the Maggie Empire can get some news and respond.

  The turmoil, fall and defection of the Duchy of Lembel are a major shame of the Maggie Empire in recent thousands of years.

  Because they hadn’t received any news of St. Joles’ Empire beforehand.

  But after that, the Maggie Empire naturally learned to be smart.

  The annual expenditure on intelligence accounts for almost one-third of the military department, which undoubtedly greatly aggravated the difficulty of the Maggie Empire’s annual revenue and expenditure balance. Therefore, Albarez’s surrender is especially important. Even the Maggie Empire did not spend much energy and time to study its origins in detail, and it was directly used for the promotion of the official title. In just a few months In the time he became the hottest celebrity in the entire Maggie Empire.

  Of course, this is another story.

The benefits of such a huge investment in the Maggie Empire are naturally great. The result is that the Maggie Empire has learned about the results of the major battles about the battle of destiny, which makes the Maggie Empire have In the past few years, the battle with the Saint-Joles Empire has prevailed. However, this kind of superiority did not bring greater advantages and rights to the Maggie Empire. It was probably just a few breaths of suffocation that had been held in his heart for a long time.

  So, the Maggie Empire received information about the secret troops sent by the Saint-Joles Empire.

   is just more information about this force, but they can no longer obtain it.

  However, it is precisely because of this that the Maggie Empire attaches so much importance to the arrival of Cecilia, and even sends a huge and grand welcome scene.

And all of this, naturally, was also seen in the eyes of the Saint-Joles Empire, which naturally led to the pressure of Bai who was going to the God of War to negotiate with Emily: his mission this time was an unacceptable one. Failed negotiations. If they can't get the support of the Kingdom of God of War, although it will not lead to the destruction of the kingdom of St. Joel's Empire, in the long-term future, they will all fall into a situation of severe damage.

  This long-term future does not refer to more than ten years or decades, but hundreds or even thousands of years.

  This is exactly what the Saint-Joers Empire cannot allow.

  In the Northern Continent, there are two empires enough to share all the benefits, and there is no place for a third empire to intervene.

  However, at the same time as the fierce battle broke out on the God of War, in Maggie Palace, a meeting had just ended.

  The main chamber had been closed for several hours, and the door was opened by two guards. Cecilia took Kozilek, Alexis and two entourages and left calmly. There were no less than ten important ministers of the Empire standing nearby. Everyone paid tribute to Cecilia as he passed by-this was not only for Cecilia’s identity, but also for Cecilia’s strength, because Yesterday, Cecilia and Thea had a friendly magic game.

  The competition items are three items: knowledge theory, magic analysis and actual combat magic.

  Except for the theory of knowledge, Thea and Cecilia are on par, and the other two projects both ended with Cecilia's victory. Especially the magic analysis, which is known as the highlight-the Maggie Empire has high hopes for Thea in this regard, because magic analysis has always been the most important knowledge ability of magicians, and it has a vital influence on rule analysis. .

  And Thea is also the most outstanding magic analysis ability among the younger generation of Maggie Empire, even compared to many old legendary magicians.

Thea’s highest record is to successfully resolve a key node of a seventh-level magic within three seconds and invalidate the active magic—this is also the most commonly used method of warfare by magicians, especially in On the battlefield. After all, it takes a long time and a lot of magic power to activate any large-scale magic at the battlefield level, and a magician who can quickly and successfully resolve the key nodes and force the magic to fail and explode and backlash can almost be said to be The key to a war.

  But in the end, Cecilia defeated Thea with a strong advantage of nearly one second.

  As for the actual combat magic project, the Maggie Empire never expected Thea to defeat Cecilia from the beginning. After all, what Cecilia activates is the Phoenix bloodline. Regarding the forbidden bloodline magic of Solomon's Seventy-two Heavy Flame, Maggie Empire has often heard about it, and it can even be said that it was once fortunate to have awakened this with the Rumbel family. The bloodline magicians have fought side by side, so there are secret files about this in the royal library of the Maggie Empire.

  It’s no exaggeration to say that the royal family of the Maggie Empire probably knows better than Cecilia the terrifying and powerful Solomon's Seventy-two Heavy Flame.

   Defeating the Maggie Empire in the most proud area of ​​the Maggie Empire, nothing can make the people of the Maggie Empire feel the power gap more powerful than this.

   Therefore, the name Cecilia has become Saint Maggie’s most influential legend in just one day.

  This result also led to Cecilia almost mastering the rhythm of the entire meeting in the meeting earlier today.

  Along with Cecilia’s departure, the ministers who were guarding outside the hall were finally summoned by King Maggie.

  The atmosphere in the conference hall seemed a bit solemn. After taking their seats one by one, the princes of the empire did not speak for a while.

"Queen Phoenix did not agree to our alliance request for the time being, but she did not say anything to death." After a moment of silence, the current emperor of the Maggie Empire broke the silence first, and then said, "The hope of alliance with the Void Empire, It's still very big."

   "What does Queen Phoenix want?" someone asked.

"She didn't say." The answer was that an important imperial minister who was fortunate to be able to participate in the talks was responsible for the diplomatic work of the Maggie Empire. This is the ticket for him to be eligible to enter the conference hall to participate in the talks. It's just a pity. Wei Zhongchen's performance today did not satisfy his emperor, "but I guess it should be related to our energy project."

   "Energy?"

  The several important ministers in the conference room looked a little surprised.

"There is one thing I have to raise here." A man who was upright even sitting on a chair said in a deep voice. Although he is more than half a year old and his hair has turned white, he is awe-inspiring, just like one. The sharp sword with its handle out of the sheath, "Recently, I received some reports from the intelligence department. Recently, people started to inquire about the magic nuclear energy project.... Although they are very concealed and it is difficult to catch the trace, any No intelligence spying can be absolutely confidential."

   "You mean..." The emperor sitting in the first seat frowned slightly, "Queen Phoenix is ​​coming for our magic core energy?"

"I'm not sure, but if Master Auburn's guess is true, then I have to doubt it." The old man who should be a minister of military affairs said in a deep voice, "I have heard that the Void Empire has the most The powerful and most outstanding intelligence service. What if the Queen of Phoenix is ​​not just the five people who appear to be on the surface?"

"This energy plan is just an unfinished product, not even a semi-finished product." Another old man with gray hair and weak speech frowned. "We have been studying this plan for 20 years, but The progress made so far is still pitiful. Even... If it weren’t for that Sean, we might not be able to make a breakthrough. Why does the Void Empire want this? You know, the guys in the Heerson Institute are basically standing there. Behind the Void Empire, they already have the most advanced research capabilities in the entire continent."

  The old man’s doubts seemed to have become a fuse, and the entire conference hall quickly became noisy.

   "Quiet." It seemed that I was getting a headache because of the arguing, and the emperor yelled angrily, "Everyone, don't you think that the topic of your discussion is already biased?"

"Your Majesty, but if the Queen of Phoenix really came for this research, then we might be able to use this as a bargaining chip." The foreign minister suddenly said, "Judging from the current progress, there is no In the case of foreign aid, it may take a very long time for us to completely perfect the magic core source. But if the Void Empire is also brought into it to cooperate with our research, then we can not only obtain the scientific research strength of the Heerson Institute , And at the same time being able to form an alliance with the Void Empire. This is a plan for us that only benefits but does no harm."

   "I think this plan is feasible." Soon, some important ministers spoke.

  With the first place, naturally there were second and third important ministers who spoke to support it. In an instant, more than half of the people in the conference hall supported this plan.

   "Then the problem is here." Saibal, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke at this time, "How can we be sure that Queen Phoenix came for the magic nuclear energy source? What if this is not what she wants?"

"Then we have nothing to lose. Instead, the friendship between us and the void empire can be enhanced." The foreign minister named Auburn said again, "we only need to pay attention to the wording and invite the void empire to join in the name of collaborative research. "

   "Very good." The emperor of the Maggie Empire was finally satisfied with his foreign minister, "Just do what Auburn said."

   "Yes." (to be continued~^~)
