Chapter 429 Seizing Power

2462 Years of the glorious calendar, the third day of the New Years month, Silverwood City.

As the capital of the Grey Iron Kingdom, the prosperity of Silver Fir City ranks among the top in the entire Federation.

In this misty morning, before the sky was completely bright, the newsboys and small vendors on the street quickly got up and hawked along the street in the early morning.

A light gray carriage slowly drove into the city gate decorated with holly garlands. The city guard at the gate lazily hugged the long spear and motioned them with one hand to stop for inspection.

But the driver did not follow the rules, but took out several rose gold coins and distributed them to several defenders.

So, after confirming that there was no danger on the carriage, the guards waved their hands to let go, and everything was as peaceful as before.

But this morning, something was different.

Above the city, when a City Guard was drinking from a water bowl, he suddenly noticed something unusual.

The originally calm water surface in the bowl suddenly produced a circle of faint ripples!

He stopped his lips in confusion and looked up.

Outside the city gate, the mist had dissipated at some point. Under the light of the morning sun, on the plain outside the city, an endless army of magic guides appeared!

Those thick shells reflect the icy metallic luster, making people chill.

When he saw the sudden construction of the army, its long-range troops had already opened fire.

“Gods…”

Looking at the thousands of fiery flames flying at high speed, almost dyeing the sky red, this City Guard’s long, sullen man. He opened his mouth wide, and even the water bowl slipped from his hand without knowing it.

Boom long long long ——

“Enemy! Attack!!”

Accompanied by the shrill siren, the East City Gate was blown open by a huge The gap, the moat array just flickered, then completely dimmed.

Obviously, the city’s defense officials probably got a lot of kickbacks.

.

….….

At the beginning of this year’s New Year’s North Wind Prayer, a sudden change shook the entire Itel Federation .

The accident happened in the gray iron kingdom of the Federation, which is a small kingdom located on the west side of the mountain range of Theberos, famous for producing various magical minerals, and adjacent to the kingdom of Laika.

On the third day, several large resistance organizations such as ‘Spark’, ‘Embers’, and ‘Bright Sun’ suddenly joined forces, under the banner of ‘freedom, equality, and resistance to oppression’, in the Grey Iron Kingdom. A mutiny was launched.

It seems that several major resistance organizations have been planning for a long time, sending a large number of elite construction troops to surround and capture the capital and several other large cities in less than half a month.

Although the Kingdom’s garrison fought bravely, its equipment was far behind the enemy’s, and because of the ‘disrepair’ of the fortress array, it was eventually outnumbered, and the army was defeated and fled in all directions.

Except for a few members of the royal family who managed to escape, most nobles and members of the royal family were captured on the spot, among which is included the king and queen and the others.

One of the nobles, who were angry with the people because of their violent levies, were publicly beheaded by the rebels.

At the same time, the guardian archmage [Dragon Eye] Philgood of the Grey Iron Kingdom suffered a sneak attack and siege by two suspected new ninth rank, and finally lost his life.

In this incident, for the first time, many resistance groups showed their strength that shocked everyone.

He has a large number of elite construction troops, and he has captured many large cities with almost no difficulty. There are even more than one ninth rank behind him, and he is not afraid of the threat of high-level professionals.

After learning the whole story of the fall of the Grey Iron Kingdom, many other small kingdoms with a similar size to the Grey Iron Kingdom, the ruling class suddenly felt sleepless.

The rebels can easily capture the Grey Iron Kingdom, so if the Grey Iron Kingdom has faced all this, if they switch to their country and do it again, then their fate will be better than the Grey Iron Kingdom. ?

Thinking of this, the top executives of many small kingdoms suddenly began to frantically order various military-type structures on a large scale.

At the same time, they also began to thoroughly investigate the city defense array situation in major cities. At the same time of timely maintenance, a group of worms who embezzled the city defense funds were cut down.

Compared to the violent reaction of many small kingdoms, the larger kingdoms responded more cautiously.

For them, the strength of the rebels, while alarming, is still manageable.

Fortunately, these resistance groups are currently only simple alliances. If they really unified into a super-large resistance organization, that would be a real headache.

For this reason, some kingdoms have already prepared to secretly send people to differentiate the cooperation of these organizations from within. Even on the grounds of unity, they are provoked to kill each other.

After several rebel groups joined forces to take over the entire Grey Iron Kingdom, the people of the Federation were also faced with a new problem.

According to the provisions of the Patikaran Covenant, when the ruler of the kingdom changes, the new ruler is eligible to join the Federation Council.

But when this provision was made, no one could have imagined that a kingdom would be captured by the so-called ‘civil resistance organization’.

As a result, how to deal with the current state of the Grey Iron Kingdom has made it difficult for many members of Congress.

After taking over the management of the entire Grey Iron Kingdom, several major resistance organizations did not immediately continue to expand outwards, but prepared to send representatives to join the Federal Parliament just like other ordinary kingdom regime changes.

This is a rather brilliant step, and making this gesture is equivalent to signaling that the Rebels also intend to play according to the rules of the game, not against the Federal Parliament.

As a result, according to the Patikaran Agreement, the seizure of power by the rebels is also a private matter within the kingdom in theory, and is protected by rules, and the Federal Parliament is not allowed to intervene at will.

At the same time, this is also to appease the high-level officials of other kingdoms and let them know that they will also abide by the Patikaran Agreement, preventing the other kingdoms from joining forces in advance due to fear, and destroying them at all costs.

After conquering the Grey Iron Kingdom, several rebel groups quieted down temporarily and began to digest the gains of the battle.

At the same time, they also began an internal vote to elect a federal member of parliament.

In the gray iron kingdom, many civilians who were worried that they would be looted suddenly found that life was much better.

Because several resistance organizations have sent guard teams to each other, they strictly restrict each other’s subordinates not to disturb the people.

Not only did there not appear to be the feared looting, even after the rise of the resistance organization, a number of tax exemption policies were temporarily implemented, and the commercial tax was also reduced to an extremely low level.

For a time, many newspapers reported the incident, which attracted the attention of many people.

At the same time, smelling business opportunities, many Chamber of Commerce sent people to the Grey Iron Kingdom. While bringing a lot of people’s livelihood resources, it is also acquiring high-value materials such as artworks that have been captured by the rebels, but have no suitable channels and are inconvenient to handle.

These daring Chambers of Commerce made a lot of money for a while thanks to trade tax and duty relief.
