"I didn't expect the Thousand Worlds Tree to actually hit this idea."

Back in the room, Ermelo II sighed heavily, then sat down on the sofa like a salted fish, and then lit a cigar.

"Master?"

Hearing Ermelo II's words, Grey couldn't help but look at him suspiciously.

"What do you mean by that?"

"It's literal, I've always wondered why the Thousand Worlds Tree would come here thousands of miles to wade through this troubled water, and they wanted to dig people up for a long time."

"Digging people?"

"That's right, Ashuberwyn is known for the restoration of the magic mark, which is no secret in the magic world. It is conceivable that his legacy will definitely contain a secret method for the restoration of magic engravings. In fact, most of the people who came here this time are eyeing this. ”

Saying this, Ermelo II sighed again, in fact, he was the same, the reason why he was willing to come to this ghost place was also for Ashuberwyn's magic engraving repair technology. Magic is the most important part of the family lineage, but the last generation of Ermelo patriarch Kenneth died in the Holy Grail War, and of course, if it was just a simple death, then it was nothing.

But the problem is that Kenneth's magic mark, who died in the Holy Grail War, has been greatly damaged, and only one or two percent are still usable, but this is obviously not enough. That's why he came here, pinning his hopes on Ashuberwin's magic mark repair technology, if he can get Ashuberwin's legacy and the repair technology of the magic mark, then maybe he can repair the broken magic mark, even if it can only restore half of it, which is a good thing.

Presumably, not only myself, but also other people who came here are probably here for this.

However, the appearance of the Thousand Worlds Tree provided them with another choice.

That's the Thousand Worlds Tree's magic engraving and restoration technology.

What made Ermelo II even more depressed was that he was really moved.

Although it stands to reason that Ashuberwin's legacy is more tempting, and once you get your hands on it, you will be able to expand your own realm in the magic world in the future. But the problem is that this is uncertain, each magic family has different core concepts and ideas, and even if you get it, you are not sure that it will be successfully repaired.

Moreover, if the other party buries any hidden dangers in it, you can't see it, and even if you see it, who can you talk to to reason?

When people are dead, can you still dig people out of their graves and whip their corpses?

But the Thousand Worlds Tree is different, although they are currently in the Far East, but "the monk who runs can't run the temple", even if something goes wrong, at least they can be held accountable. Moreover, looking at the confident appearance of the red ponytail, Ermelo II also believed that the other party must be sure to make this invitation in front of everyone.

To put it bluntly, this is the praying mantis catching cicada and yellow finch behind, most of the guests are coming for Ashuberwin's legacy, but the Thousand Worlds Tree ——— is coming for these guests.

As for whether these guests would accept the invitation of the Thousand Worlds Tree, Ermelo II was not sure, although in terms of the current status of the Thousand Worlds Tree in the magic world, most people should not be. But it's hard to say, after all, since you are a guest here, I'm afraid it's all because of the magic mark, and the magic mark is a key matter that will affect the rise and fall of the entire family. If someone feels that they are unlikely to win this competition, they may turn to the Thousand Worlds Tree for help.

But the biggest question for Ermelo II is......... Do you want to try it yourself?

Compared to others, his winning rate in this inheritance battle is relatively low, and at least his relationship with Red Ponytail is relatively good, so if he asks, the other party should agree to help. It's just that in this way, the debts of the Ermelo family may rise to a new level, and their stomach problems may also increase.

Of course, it's fine if it's just debt............

"Grey."

Thinking of this, Ermelo II made up his mind and stood up.

"Let's go out."

"Ah, okay."

Not knowing what to do, Grey nodded and left the room, following Ermelo II.

"Knock knock."

When there was a knock on the door, Fang Zheng had just finished the last business plan, and she raised her head and looked at the door.

"Come in, the door is unlocked."

"Squeak———"

Soon, the door opened, and a tall figure appeared in the doorway.

"Yo, isn't this Weber?"

Looking at Ermelo II standing at the door, Fang Zheng waved his hand, while Ermelo II smiled bitterly, walked in with Grey, and then closed the door with his hand.

"What's the matter with me?"

"Now that you're here, you should know exactly what it's all about, Miss Redtail."

As he spoke, Ermelo II glanced at the flowers who were sitting next to him reading a book, but the flowers only smiled slightly and did not answer. Although she was nominally coming on behalf of the Thousand Worlds Tree, before she arrived, Blossom had already learned from Fiore that her main task this time was to observe, not participate. Therefore, all external affairs should be handled by Xiaohong.

"So what?"

"I just want to know what the price is."

Standing there, Ermelo II looked at the red ponytail in front of him and said word by word.

"The Thousand Worlds Tree helps repair the magic mark, does it cost more than just money?"

"Hahaha, of course it's impossible."

Fang Zheng waved his hand.

"Our request was simple......... If we help the Ermelo clan restore the magic mark, how about the Ermelo clan join the Thousand Worlds Tree? That's a good condition, isn't it? ”

"What?"

Hearing this, Ermelo II was taken aback, and his eyes widened in surprise as he looked at Fangzheng.

"Are you kidding? How is this possible? The Ermelo family, though now in decline, is one of the twelve monarchs of the Clock Tower........."

"So, what if the clock tower is finished?"

“…………… Huh? ”

For a moment, Ermelo II thought he had misheard. But the red ponytail stared at him with a dangerous smile.

"Webb. Velvett, do you think the hierarchy of the magic world is justified right now? ”

“？”

"The reason why the current Twelve Sovereigns occupy high positions and have overwhelming status and power over other families is not because of how powerful they are, but because they rely on the accumulation of magic marks over the years. It's like a centuries-old rich chaebol competing for wealth with a self-made poor boy, do you think it's reasonable? ”

"But that's the reality."

The words of the red ponytail pierced Ermelo II's heart like a needle, after all, he thought so back then, which is why he chose to write that paper, but ......... Reality cannot be changed by ideals, which is why he is here.

"That's right, the objective reality is here, and it's a fantasy to expect the ruling class to be obedient just by following the example of those idiot civilians and raising a flag on the streets, so what we need is not a march, not a protest, not a debate, but a revolution."

"Revolutionary ...............?"

"Yes, flowers, let him see them."

While speaking, Fang Zheng snapped his fingers, and when he heard Fang Zheng's order, the flower also nodded, and then she stood up, and then, Ermelo II saw the flower's finger flash in the air, accompanied by a series of wonderful characters quietly flashed, and the next moment I saw a faint layer of shield on the flower's body, as if burning with flames.

In the eyes of Ermelo II, however, much more was seen.

"This ......... This is......... What exactly is this .........? ”

Although the magic itself is not strong, Ermelo II's vision of magic is first-class, and just by looking at it, he can see that the magic released by this girl is some kind of shield magic that has been carefully designed and improved. Not only that, but this magic seems to be close to the level of magic to a certain extent, and it unmistakably presents the essential characteristics of the elemental class, which is almost like divine magic!

And what surprised Ermelo II even more was that the release of this magic did not bring much burden to the girl named Flower in front of him, and he could also see that the girl in front of him did not have a magic mark, and it could even be said that her magic circuit was only slightly stronger than himself!

But this magic trick is impossible to unleash by yourself!

What exactly is the principle of this magic trick? The rune just now......... Is it Lune? But it's not like that.........

"This is the magic of the new age."

Fang Zheng smiled and looked at the uncertain face of Ermelo II and continued.

"There is no need for magic marking, not even a magic circuit, as long as there is enough diligence and wisdom, then anyone can attain power comparable to the twelve monarchs——— or even above it......... Of course, this is just the basic part, depending on the situation, the Thousand Worlds Tree will also make some talented girls become magical girls......... Just like me. ”

"What?!"

Hearing this, Ermelo II was really shocked, how strong this magic is, he is still only a preliminary influence. But the power of the red ponytail, he is very clear! However, now the red ponytail in front of him tells him that the Thousand Worlds Tree can mass-produce magical girls?!

Just kidding, a bunch of perverts tearing the Heroic Spirits apart? Isn't this a matter of human life?!

"How? This is the condition of our Thousand Worlds Tree, if you join the Thousand Worlds Tree, you can abandon those old magic residues and learn new magic tricks, and we will also turn qualified people into magical girls depending on the situation, this proposal is not a loss. ”

"Not really, but ........."

Saying this, Ermelo II hesitated.

"You Thousand Worlds Tree......... I want to ......... with the Magic Association."

"History proves that in order to completely overthrow a class, it is necessary to go through war."

"Why does it have to be war? We can gradually change the status quo and wait until the new generation of magicians grows up........."

However, before Ermelo II's words could be finished, he was interrupted by Fangzheng.

"Instead of taking a resolute political opposition, it is a full reconciliation; not to fight against the government and the bourgeoisie, but to try to win them over, to convince them; It is not a violent resistance to persecution from above, but a resignation and an acknowledgment of the punishment that is most deserved. All the inevitable conflicts of history are interpreted as misunderstandings, and all struggles end with us in general unanimity. You're trying to be a capitulationist, Webb. ”

"That's not what I meant."

Hearing Fangzheng's words, Ermelo II looked a little excited.

"However, your approach, the Thousand Worlds Tree's approach, will only cause even greater damage!"

"Forgetting the fundamental plan for the sake of immediate and temporary gains, seeking only temporary achievements without regard for the consequences, sacrificing the future of the movement for the sake of the present of the movement, this practice may be motivated by 'sincere' motives. But this is opportunism, always opportunism, and 'sincere' opportunism is perhaps more dangerous than all other opportunism. ”

Fang Zheng stood up and stared at Ermelo II.

"History is in the past, society is advancing, and change is inevitable. Just as industrialization has destroyed countless people's families and lives, the magic world also needs to develop and change, abandon the old, meaningless pursuit of the root vortex, and strive for the future survival of the whole world and mankind, which is the purpose of our Thousand Worlds Tree. Unlike the old era, which was only to solidify the class and protect vested interests, a new era has begun. The Clock Tower, the Atlas Courtyard, the Wandering Sea, the Magic Society, the Twelve Sovereigns, anything that stands in our way will be shattered completely. ”

“………………………”

For a moment, the atmosphere in the whole room became extremely solemn, and Ermelo II stood there, staring blankly at the red ponytail in front of him, and after a moment, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty.

"Are you really going to do this?"

"We are very serious, otherwise why would we have traveled all the way to England? Do you think stargazing here is delicious? ”

Hearing this word, the flowers next to her suddenly changed their complexion, and it seemed that the indescribable dark cuisine had also left a deep psychological shadow on her.

"Aren't you afraid we'll report these to the Clock Tower and the Magic Society?"

"Casually, it's not the first time that the Thousand Worlds Tree has rebelled against the Magic Association. If they dare to come to the door to die again, then I will cut them one by one, and when the time comes, I will directly cut down the entire clock tower. ”

That's right.........

Ermelo II pressed his forehead in distress, as the red ponytail said, the Thousand Worlds Tree had already torn his face with the Magic Association, and it was a matter of course that the two sides would fight each other, and, with the power of the red ponytail, she said that she was going to cut down the entire clock tower——— it was really not a joke.

After thinking about it, in the end, Ermelo II was only able to give such an answer.

"Please let me think about it."
