Chapter 1167: The Year of Chaos (8)
Exhale, inhale, exhale!
[The devil of Black Mountain City has been eliminated, but the blood sacrifice is almost complete, and the death toll of this incident is eleven people. γ
[Led by Mattirus has discovered the cultists' activities and continues to track them.] γ
[A small Abyss Gate appeared in Willow Leaf Town, formed by the Cultist's own blood sacrifice, and has now been destroyed. γ
One message after another appeared on the crystal in front of Ruerno, making his breathing a little shorter.
These messages come from all over the empire, but with the development of information transmission technology, the transmission of these messages no longer requires too many cumbersome procedures, only need to use specific encryption procedures, and can send a 'secret message' to the superiors, which can be done much faster than the previous means, a little faster or even half a minute.
The empire is getting more and more chaotic......
Looking at this information, Ruerno didn't know whether he should be angry or if he should have some other emotions.
The drugs injected into his body constantly stimulate his brain and keep him calm all the time, and there are few things that can provoke his violent mood swings, and he doesn't want those things to happen.
This information did not cause the slightest mood swing in Rulno, if it was before, maybe he would have been furious.
In just half an hour, three such messages appeared in front of his eyes in a row, which showed how critical the situation of the empire was now.
Because of the war between the nobles who believe in the goddess of progress and the ordinary nobles, because of the 'Protect the Elven Allies' movement led by Viscount Gwill, and because the dragons have taken action to frantically search for clues to the dragon hunting order around the world, the entire continent has now become extremely chaotic.
I am afraid that these situations are not only in their empire, but also in other countries.
But every piece of information that appears means that there are many people who have passed away, who have died, who have died unexplained, because of the conspiracy of some people, they have died......
Ruerno was ashamed that he had not been able to give the civilians a peaceful and powerful empire, but the plan would still go on, no matter how many people would die.
Now there is no turning back, and it can be seen from the current situation of the Ogordon Empire that if they continue to let the nobles behave recklessly, then sooner or later, the commoners will be forced into debt, not only will they not have enough to eat, but they may even have to take away the wealth and freedom they have.
No matter how much he sacrifices, he will carry this plan forward!
Ruerno knew that he was very cold-blooded like this, sacrificing others, and he was useless for anything, just lying quietly in this crystal jar and giving orders.
But if he doesn't, more people will suffer in the future.
Whether it's because of the brutal exploitation of the nobles or because the empire is falling apart, more people will be affected, so he has to be cold-blooded.
"Teacher ......"
At this moment, a figure pushed the door open.
There was a lot of helplessness and sorrow in the 'teacher', and more sorrow and self-blame were hidden in the bright eyes, and Maggie Isser walked out of the room.
The windows of the room that should have been bright have been sealed, and after the cement has been poured, the room has become an airtight secret room.
There was no other light source in the room other than the glimmer of light that swirled on the runes engraved on the surrounding walls.
Some of the instruments in the room will produce a photosensitive reaction, and naturally, there will be no lights in the room.
This is more than 20 days after he learned the news, he has not made up his mind to visit his teacher, and he does not know what face to use to face this teacher.
This teacher of his gave his life to the empire, and poured his life's work into the affairs related to the empire.
He has trained many excellent court mages for the empire, designed many policies to put the empire on the right path of development, and now, in the period when he is about to die, he does not choose to enjoy his old age in peace, but burns his soul and contributes his last strength to this empire.
He knew very well that burning his soul would drain his remaining life, but he did it anyway.
He has hardly enjoyed much in his life, he has been paying for this empire all his life, but he does not ask for anything in return, in his words: 'The empire has paid a lot for me, even if it is not worth mentioning the empire, but it is the light of my life, without the empire, I would not be able to live until now, and now I am repaying the kindness of the empire, not paying." β
Seeing those indifferent eyes, Maggie Isser clenched her teeth.
"I remember I taught you ......" a cold synth resounded in the dimly lit room, "The emperor is the most indecisive person, you can be benevolent or cold-blooded, but the last thing you can do is to be indecisive." As long as you think about it carefully, you can say whatever you want and do whatever you want!"
Feeling the cold gaze from inside the crystal jar, Maggie Isser took a deep breath, straightened her waist, and followed the gaze, seeing the eyes full of indifference.
"Yes, teacher!" the emperor bent down and bowed deeply, "First of all, thank you for your years of teaching me and your dedication to the Empire, and secondly, thank you again for your willingness to support me and teach me, even after seeing my stupidity. β
"Because the other heirs are all rubbish, and only you have a little bit to look at. Ruerno said this mercilessly.
The Emperor was silent, remembering that in his childhood, the legendary mage named 'Ruerno Luchez' had said to him when he was teaching him:
'You'll be a good emperor.' β
"I'll be a good emperor!" Maggie Isser raised her head and said solemnly, "Teacher, just as you said at the beginning - I will inherit your will and bring the empire to a higher peak, and let the empire that has been up and down go to the top of the world!"
"Then let's go and solve the current problems of the empire first. β
Looking at the message that popped up in front of him, Ruerno said coldly: "Empty talk can't solve anything, now Port Vale has been invaded by demons, and a [Abyss Gate] has been opened, and they have come here to plunder souls......"
"I'll send them back!" the Magic Emperor interrupted Ruerno, his eyes never more resolute than ever, "I should go, Sensei." β
The corners of his mouth unconsciously curled slightly, and Lu Erno nodded slightly, "If you can't do it, don't come to me." β
The Abyssal Gate has just opened, but one of the abysses has invaded, and if the huge Kurkut Empire can't beat them back, then Maggie Easy, the emperor, doesn't have to do it.
Watching his student turn away, Rourno narrowed his eyes at the message that had just popped up.
[Port Vale has been invaded by the Abyss, the Gate of the Abyss has been opened, and the local garrison has been corrupted, so urgently call for help!]
Ruerno couldn't help but snort coldly, "Really...... A bunch of scum!"
Even the garrison officers can be corrupted, so you can imagine how corrupt the local nobility is.
This empire is rotten at the roots, and if you want to cure this empire, you must remove the rotten roots.
The feudal aristocracy is no longer suitable for this empire, or rather, it is no longer suitable for this world, and as long as the nobles still hold the land in their hands, then they will always have nothing to fear.
Something like this time may happen again, again, again!
Originally, he was a little naΓ―ve to think that it was not a big deal for the nobles to own land in their hands, but when a series of events happened in the Ogordon Empire, he realized how great it was for the chief maid to directly nationalize the land of the nobles.
In the coming era, if land is still privately owned, then it is very likely that the poor will get poorer and the rich will get richer again.
The rich continue to buy land from the people, and then let the people produce it at very low prices, and those who have no choice but to obediently obey the arrangements of the strong.
Ruerno couldn't accept that such a thing would happen to the future Kurkut Empire, so even if it made the empire more chaotic and more innocent people would die for no reason, he would let the plan go ahead.
Reform is not a dinner party, the interests of those nobles will be hit by them, they will not easily give up the power in their hands, so they can only solve these problems by struggle.
If they want to fight, then they will fight, they must fight - even if the empire will be plunged into war and chaos will increase!
