Chapter 788: The Decisive Battle (14)

As a super empire, the land of mages Ein Rodant is not large, and most of the country's population is concentrated in the capital of the magic city, Ainro.

For thousands of years, the city in the clouds has existed in the sky above Ayinro, and originally, it was only the residence and laboratory of Master Gaohuan, in order to avoid the habitual explosion sparks from spreading to other areas.

With the popularization of compulsory education for mages, the number of spellcasters in Ainro has increased year by year, the older generation of immortals has accumulated more and more, and the number of perennial residents in Cloud City has increased.

With the continuous expansion, Cloudsdale has long been not only an experimental area for high-level mages, but also a total of 10% of the population of spellcasters living on it, more than 50% of the archmages have their own residences and laboratories in Cloudsdale, and all academic societies have mage towers on it.

Even so, it is still officially called the "Tower of the Clouds", even if it was a real city for hundreds of years, just because everyone used to call it that.

It has long been more than just a research area and a mage tower, all the people of Ain Rodant can look up and see the city among the clouds every day, and its existence is a symbol of the prosperity and stability of the entire kingdom.

"Never challenge an archmage with a mage tower."

This seems to have become common knowledge in the multiverse, and its extension may be......

"Never go head-on to Ayinro and the Cloud Tower, unless you plan to deal with thousands of top-tier mage towers and tens of thousands of archmages at the same time."

Maybe the Tower of the Clouds doesn't have any famous achievements, or maybe the world has forgotten that it is a moving Cloudsdale, but it is also its power. Let any IQ be present above the horizon. From the beginning, there will be no consideration of challenging Cloudsdale head-on.

"Attacking the capital of the Mage Nation, Eloon? There's the Tower of the Clouds. Tens of thousands of archmages, endless reserves of mana, massive war golems and magical creations, countless plane gates and spell reserves, that is the combat power of most of the mage country. ”

Even the most reckless king would not consider attacking the capital of the Mage Country, the city in the clouds, which is the home and abode of the mages. It is also a symbol of peace and stability for the whole country.

The only fanatic who provoked him was still the "Fool King" Oros, and from now on, the arrogant provocation that involved the Mage Nation was probably the wisest decision in this world.

"Ten years ago, the Inner Ring Councillors had a private agreement with the former King of Byer, Oros, that if necessary, we would send the Cloud Tower to support across the sea, and the Bayer Empire would be responsible for all of our losses. Not only that, but they will also open the treasury. Give at least two hundred catties of demonized essence gold and tens of millions of gold coin-level magic materials, one artifact, ten sub-artifacts to make a price. ”

In the Hall of Truth in the Tower of the Clouds. Archmage Rhine explains to the other mages the legality of Cloud City's entry into other countries.

A small piece of information that only members know, the Council of Truth is essentially divided into inner ring members and outer ring members, the latter is more numerous and changes frequently, but the former is hidden between the latter, and only the inner ring members know the identities of other inner ring members.

The Inner Ring Councillors don't have any additional privileges, they are just given more trust and more intelligence support.

And Amara of the Star Revelation. and "Miracle Prayer" Rhein, one of the few Inner Ring Councillors who have made their identities public.

"I heard that Oros died, and I had previously scrapped the agreement because of it, and when Roland came to me with the letter of agreement and the power of attorney from Emperor Helent, I really couldn't believe it...... They must have hooked up before. ”

In the empty hall of truth in the past, most of it was filled at this time, many names that had been forgotten by the world for a hundred years, and those ghosts that shocked the world a hundred years ago, returned to the world with hoods and masks.

Don't look at Archmage Rhine is calm and calm, the vests are all cold sweat at this time, these seniors who have long been in seclusion and retired, some are appointed and appointed members of the Truth Council, and some are authorities in a certain field, and they don't know where to hide on weekdays, but this city of mages moved, but all of them suddenly jumped out.

Maybe from the legal point of view, he doesn't need to accept the questions of the retired seniors, but just like the juniors always can't hold their heads up in front of the old founders of clubs and companies, the students who have graduated and worked are a little panicked when they see the head teacher of the year, and they are surrounded by these old mages who have watched their growth, and they really can't say it if they don't give a suitable explanation.

"So, ....... little Rhine, you discussed with the other Inner Ring Councillors and activated Cloud City, and a little favor will let you sell Cloud City? You know that the Tower of the Clouds has never moved for so many years since the founding of Ain Rodant, and its stability is the foundation of the stability of all Ain Rodant's hearts, and now the panic is spreading among the civilians......"

The black-haired gentleman with a one-eyed mask, looking very young, his eyes flashing with dangerous starlight, he is the senior brother of the Rhine mentor, the former speaker of the Inner Ring "Almighty Hand" Noah.

Hearing this, Rhine also suddenly realized, no wonder these reclusive predecessors jumped out of the hole one by one, it turned out that they usually lived in seclusion among the civilians in the national capital, and when they saw the city in the clouds moving, they naturally couldn't sit still.

"Hey, that's probably what Roland expected. The afterlife is terrible, and the afterlife is terrible. But for this little thing, you let the Cloud Tower, which has never been moved, enter another country......"

The words were not finished, but everyone could see that Noah was a little dissatisfied,

At this point, even Rhine was a little depressed, he understood why Roland had to emphasize the secrecy between Mobile Cloud City, and the reaction of these old-timers was probably also what he expected, and the Mobile Mage City naturally dragged them to the battlefield.

Calculating allies is not a glamorous thing to do, but calculating allies can increase the strength of allies...... At this time, the emotions in Rhine's heart were very complicated, and at this moment, it was also his obligation to answer the questions of his predecessors.

And why did you make this choice, haven't you already thought about it from the beginning?

"No, it's not just that."

Rhine thought for a while, organized the language, and his next words were likely to determine the attitude of his predecessors.

"This is a struggle for survival, although the country of mages is a country of mages, most of the inhabitants here are still humans, so, we must fight."

There is no long speech, no reasoning, it is pointless to talk about the archmage's verbal skills, and the dialectics will make them even more disgusting, "Because we are human beings, we must fight for the continuation and prosperity of the race", the position of the ass determines the head, which is very realistic.

"Is it necessary?"

Noah nodded slightly, such an answer was expected and the only acceptable.

Continuing the mysteries? Exploring endless truths? Please survive first, for any race, survival crisis is always the first priority, the Abyss Lords have really gained the dominance of the plane, can the mages still maintain their former independence.

Noah's question, "Is it necessary?", in fact, has already recognized this reason, after all, these old mages are not deaf, and seclusion does not mean that they cannot receive information and be isolated from the world, on the contrary, infiltrate among mortals to make them understand the current situation more thoroughly.

Is it necessary? It's not that the Mage Nation needs to be involved, because from the very beginning, no one can escape this war, hiding in the ivory tower and shivering, it is equivalent to handing over the butcher's knife to the opponent.

Noah asked, is the current situation to the point of a decisive battle? Is it necessary to use the Cloud Tower?

Rhine's eyes flashed with a firm will, activating the Tower of the Clouds was equivalent to tying the entire Mage Country to the battlefield, this was not a decision that he could make alone, and he had already approved this decision from the bottom of his heart.

"It is necessary, only by participating in the war and winning the victory, in the new era, we will have enough voice and status, for the inheritance of the mystery and the dignity of the caster, as the strongest group and vested interests in this plane, we must show a record that matches our identity."

Rational mages do not talk about any reasoning at all, nor about politics or meaning, but directly discuss the interests of the future like cunning businessmen.

"The Hades side is more suitable for us than chaos and order. This is a resolution approved by all members of the Truth Council. ”

Hades, Order, and Chaos, the tripartite camps are already destined to decide the winner in this holy war, and since they are already destined to be unable to close the country to escape, it is better to choose a position as soon as possible, attack with all their might, and achieve enough results.

If this is not seen clearly, even if Roland says it well, the Council of Truth will ignore it, and the agreement or something is meaningless without sufficient interests to support it.

Noah closed his eyes in contemplation and fell silent, but a special exchange took place between the old mages, and after half a ring, Noah opened his eyes and was still smiling.

"Then, little Rhine, we old bones are going to bother you for a while."

Rhine was stunned for a moment, and then overjoyed, with the addition of these old mages, the Council of Truth would immediately be several times stronger.

At this time, Noah quietly handed over a piece of paper on the table, on which there was only a special spell for communication.

"Perhaps, you use it, this is ......."

Listening to the name passed by Noah, Rhine's pupils dilated instantly, and his heart almost stopped, it turned out that the real trump card of the country of mages, the older generation of mages was still holding his hands, and his own group of councilors did not know at all.

The old mages disappeared into the auditorium one by one, and only a few such as Noah remained, acting as a hub for communication, and the Cloud Tower, which had skyrocketed in strength, accelerated forward, rushing to the battlefield faster than expected.

And when the Tower of the Clouds fell from the clouds and looked at the chaotic dimensional battlefield in front of them, even the archmages who had experienced countless battles were also panicked, and they were even more glad that they had used their trump cards.

The entry of the Cloud Tower into the battlefield also represents more than half of the combat power of the entire Mage Country, which has been fully engaged in this survival struggle that can only be won and not lost.

If we look back at the past, such as the stupid hindsight of the country of mages in "history", we can see that at the heart of the mages' change in attitude towards this war is still that person.

At this time, "that person" was finally a little relieved to see the early arrival of the Cloud Tower, the Sophocle in front of him was too difficult, and now the ability that Sophoclery has exposed also proves his conjecture.

"Sophocle, you're not a demon at all." (To be continued.) )
