The actions of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort team in the small town of Laluer spread to countless countries and regions on the Sainz continent through word of mouth from countless mercenaries and caravans.
Regarding this news, the first reaction of most people is that Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is crazy!
What is the small town of Lalure? That's the territory of the Candela Empire!
God be upon you! The Candela Empire is one of the two most powerful empires on this continent. Strictly speaking, even the Malo Empire is slightly inferior to the Candela Empire in terms of overall strength. Because of this, the Candela Empire is stronger than the Candela Empire on the Sainz continent. They have always been aloof when facing other countries. They have always been the only ones to stir up trouble in other countries. When did it become the turn of others to go to the territory of the Candela Empire and cause trouble
What's more, this time it's just a chamber of commerce that is making trouble on the territory of the Candela Empire!
Even though this chamber of commerce is the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce that has recently attracted the attention of the entire continent and has received the attention of almost all countries, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce sent its own escort team to launch an attack in the Kandra Empire, and it is still not officially recognized by the Kandra Empire. If you act without authorization, you simply don’t take the Candela Empire seriously!
For the Candela Empire, which has existed on this continent for nearly a thousand years and has always been one of the most powerful countries, this is undoubtedly a shame and how can it be tolerated.
Of course, in addition to paying attention to the subsequent reaction of the Candela Empire to this incident, the vast majority of people are actually more concerned about the specific circumstances of this incident.
According to rumors, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort team launched this operation to eliminate a group of bandits who had previously robbed the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce caravan.
This is understandable. But based on what was revealed in the rumors. The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort team is in order to wipe out these bandits. He actually launched an extremely terrifying attack and even cut off a layer of the Sunset Mountain Range. This was really terrifying.
Although there have long been rumors about the powerful power of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's military magic machines, but in the previous battles that demonstrated the power of the military magic machines, there has never been one so heart-wrenching.
If the northern army of the Lampali Kingdom had possessed such terrifying military magic machines, then there would have been no possibility for the Sak Kingdom to fight against the Lampali Kingdom. They might have been directly pushed out by the Lampali Kingdom as soon as the war started. Is it even
Many people are a little skeptical about this rumor because they don't believe that the military magic machinery of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce is really so terrifying.
But among these people. But it does not include the big shots at the top of the Candela Empire who are familiar with the inside story.
His Majesty, the most noble Emperor of the Candela Empire, had a detailed incident report in front of him at this time. It described the details of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce's actions in detail, and not a single omission was left out. It also included information about what happened after the attack on the Sunset Mountains. The resulting terrain changes were described in detail, and the terrifying power of the magic artillery used by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce escorts was fully displayed in front of His Majesty Emperor Alfonso Candela.
"I have a question." His Majesty Emperor Candela retracted his gaze from the observation report, raised his head and asked the circle of people in front of him. "Where did the magic airships from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce fly to Laluer Town?"
Everyone looked at each other.
After this incident, everyone's focus was on the frightening power of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's military magic machinery, but the magic airship was ignored.
Now after being reminded by His Majesty the Emperor, everyone suddenly realized that this was indeed a very important issue.
The small town of Lalure is located at the junction of Tagana and Northeastern provinces. It can be regarded as the center of the empire, and it is more than a thousand kilometers away from the nearest empire border. The distance between the empire and the borders of several countries in the southwest of the mainland is more than 2,000 kilometers.
And if you come from the Principality of Standing, where the main base of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce is located, it is close to three thousand kilometers away.
Of course, this operation of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce escort team cannot be organized and launched within the empire, but should be transported by magic airship from other places outside the country.
There is no doubt about this, but... Where did these magic airships fly into the empire from, and how did they fly all the way to the small town of Laluer, and were not discovered until they were about to land
Seeing the confused looks on everyone's faces, Emperor Candela snorted coldly: "You don't know? Does that mean that if the New Flying Chamber of Commerce is willing, they can even use the magic airship to fly directly to my palace, and then Launch an attack on the palace at will?"
Everyone was startled, and a trace of cold sweat broke out on their faces involuntarily.
Although the situation mentioned by His Majesty the Emperor is extremely unlikely to happen, if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is really so bold, it is really an extremely terrible thing.
"Your Majesty, you don't need to worry about this." Mawei Viscondin, the president of the Candela Empire Magician Association and the president of the Imperial Magic Court, said seriously: "The Imperial Palace has accumulated several The comprehensive protective array built over a hundred years can withstand all possible attacks. Even if the New Flying Chamber of Commerce dares to send a magic airship to attack the palace, it will not pose any threat. "
"Huh... a protective circle?" His Majesty Emperor Candela chuckled. "Very good. The palace is indeed protected by a protective circle, but what about other than the palace? Can you guarantee that every inch of the empire is protected by a protective circle?"
"This..." The great magician of Wisconsin grimaced and shook his head. "Your Majesty, this is impossible..."
"So, in fact, we don't have any effective defense method at all against the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce's use of magic airships to invade and launch attacks from the air?" His Majesty Emperor Candela said with a cold face.
Everyone looked at each other, their expressions becoming ugly.
Your Majesty is right, because the sky has always been the domain of magicians, so if the New Flying Chamber of Commerce really uses magic airships to launch an attack, it is almost impossible to prevent it.
"We can mobilize magicians to intercept directly in the sky." A minister suggested.
"But how many magicians can we mobilize?" His Majesty Emperor Candela asked.
"This..." The minister was stunned and speechless.
Although the Candela Empire is the country with the most magicians on this continent, according to statistics. It's just over fifty thousand.
And in this. A magician who can fly into the sky and fight. But not even five thousand.
Want to protect the huge empire territory with five thousand magicians? This is simply a fantasy.
What's more, among these five thousand magicians, there are probably not even three thousand magicians who are actually willing to participate in the war according to the empire's orders...
There is no way. Magicians are originally a rare profession on the continent of Sainz, and high-level magicians are even rarer. Even if the Candela Empire is the most powerful country in the continent, the power of magicians is also the undisputed number one. In this regard, it is still impossible to have How generous.
After thinking about this. Everyone in the room fell into silence.
They were well aware of the dangers inherent in the problem raised by His Majesty the Emperor, but they could not think of any solution.
"Your Majesty, I want..." After a while, a minister hesitated to speak. "I don't think the New Flying Chamber of Commerce would be so bold as to declare war on the empire, right?"
Others turned to look at the minister, their eyes full of strangeness.
If the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was not so bold, how could they send out escorts to do such a thing this time
Facts have proved that this Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, or Xu Yi, the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, is simply a lunatic, and there is nothing he dares not do.
not to mention. Does the majestic Candela Empire still need to pray for the mercy of others
"Your Majesty, your concerns are very reasonable. I think we must take them seriously." The Supreme Commander of the Kandela Empire Military Department, Imperial Marshal Campbell Sudirman said solemnly: "We must not let this hidden danger exist. I suggest that we strengthen the border We and all places within the territory conduct surveillance and inspection of the sky, and we must never allow the magic airships of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce to travel freely like this time!"
"That's well said, but it's meaningless." A sarcastic smile flashed across His Majesty Emperor Candela's face. "How do you plan to strengthen the reconnaissance and inspection of the sky? It is impossible for ordinary soldiers to detect magic airships flying hundreds or even thousands of meters high, but magicians... can you find so many magicians?"
Marshal Sudirman was speechless.
This brings us back to the original question.
In front of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce's magic airship, the Candela Empire simply could not come up with an equivalent solution.
The sky, a realm that is completely beyond the reach of ordinary people, can now be allowed to fly freely with the magic airship of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, but others do not have the same method.
Although magicians can also soar in the sky, magic airships can be mass-produced, but magicians, especially high-level magicians, cannot be mass-produced at all.
Is there really no way to solve this problem
Everyone looked heavy because they couldn't think of any solution at the moment.
After a long time, a long sigh sounded faintly.
"Your Majesty, I think... we should put aside those unnecessary reservations and open our arms to cooperate with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce."
The one who spoke was Cruze Candela, the eldest among the ministers in the room, the one with the highest prestige and the most trusted by His Majesty the Emperor, the Speaker of the Council of Elders of the Candela Empire and the Prince of the Empire.
He is His Majesty the Emperor's biological uncle. Ever since he assisted His Majesty the Emperor on ascending the throne, he has rarely expressed his opinions on any internal affairs of the empire. This time, he spoke out to everyone's surprise.
Seeing the questioning looks cast by everyone including His Majesty Emperor Candela, Prince Candela smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "Your Majesty, it is obvious that we are not capable of dealing with these amazing magical machines of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. And it is obvious that we also Without the ability to eliminate this New Flying Chamber of Commerce, the only option left for us is cooperation. "
Everyone around them frowned slightly.
Although what Prince Candela said was true, it sounded very uncomfortable.
As one of the two major empires in the mainland, is the Candela Empire still planning to bow to a mere chamber of commerce
"I've said it before, let go of those unnecessary reservations and arrogance. The empire has been able to stand on the mainland for so many years not by relying on these meaningless things, but by pursuing practical profits. Since it cannot solve the problems caused by this new flying chamber of commerce, , then of course we must actively cooperate with them, taking this magic airship as an example. As long as we have enough magic airships through cooperation in the future, then the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will not be a concern. But if we make the wrong choice now, let’s not mention the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. , I am afraid that we will be quickly left behind by our greatest enemy, the Maro Empire. At that time, the real crisis for the empire will be."
Everyone was shocked when they heard "Maro Empire".
Unlike the Kandra Empire, the cooperation between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Malo Empire is said to have been very smooth.
Moreover, according to intelligence, the Malo Empire also ordered a batch of magic airships from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
If the Malo Empire also has enough magic airships in the future, coupled with a large number of military magic machines, then once the Malo Empire launches a war with the Candela Empire, I am afraid that the Candela Empire will not only be in crisis.
After the wordless silence lasted for a while, His Majesty Emperor Candela let out a sigh, then paused and said loudly: "Issuing an announcement to give high praise to the great success of the anti-bandit operation launched by the Tagana Province and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. Praise, this is a manifestation of the in-depth cooperation between the imperial official and the New Aviation Chamber of Commerce in the field of military magic machinery, and represents a further consensus between the two parties..."
