Thirtieth Sula Conference

Before leaving the brothel that Khorezmi and his son had opened, Muhathir commissioned the old man to make something for him. Fastest update //

felt that he had been deceived, it was not that he didn't want to clean up the other party, but it didn't make much sense to do so, and it was unnecessary to make enemies in vain. Moreover, when he learned that Khwarazmi made small machines and mechanisms for the face dancers, he also had an idea of his own.

It turned out that the psychic warlock had used his free time to carefully consider how to overcome many difficulties and cross the salt sea, known as the Absolute Death Land, to find a way to find the Pure Fortress.

There are many reasons why crossing the salt sea is considered impossible to complete.

The seabed, left over from the ancient sea, is bordered by a flat area called the Great Six. Although the land in this area is also covered with a thick layer of salt, the terrain is very gentle, with no undulating mountains, only a slight slope, so it is not difficult to cross. But if you continue to the depths of the Salt Sea along the Big 6, you will come to the end of the Big 6 if you walk up to about 10 Parlesans.

At the end of the big 6, the terrain changed dramatically. First, there is a cliff that stretches for thousands of miles and is tens of thousands of feet deep, which is called the Great 6 Slopes. It is one of the longest and most spectacular natural landscapes in the world in Attas. Not all areas of the Great 6 Slope are insurmountable cliffs, and in some areas, there will be gentle fan-shaped gentle slopes. These places are called submarine fans, and they are the places where the sea flowed into the sea tens of thousands of years ago. Huge amounts of sediment carried by the river wash into the sea, forming these fan-shaped gentle slopes.

Descending to the bottom of the cliff, one has come to the real bottom of the ancient ocean. In ancient times, there were towering seamounts, undulating hills, long ridges, deep trenches, and open abyssal plains. Some of the large and small shield volcanoes are still active, and some of them are silent on the surface, but the dark heart is still hot.

For most of the bottom of the Salt Sea, the salt layer is 200 feet thick and no living thing can survive, but that doesn't mean it's empty.

According to adventurers who have had the privilege of exploring the Salt Sea, there are huge undead monsters infesting the bottom of the Salt Sea. For millions of years, the bones of the ocean's whale-like creatures have died and their bones have been deposited on the ocean floor. Some of them became undead by chance. These undead are much larger than their counterparts on the 6th floor, and they tend to be very, very hungry.

No adventurer has ever penetrated far enough into the Salt Sea, but at best for a brief stay at the edge of the ocean floor. But even so, they have some terrifying phenomena that discourage those who come after them.

The average depth of the ocean in Attas is 25,000 feet, which is about 9,000 meters deep on Earth. This not only led to higher air pressure in the interior of the Salt Sea, but also gave rise to some terrifying climate extremes that were unheard of in the six places. Adventurers have witnessed winds that can blow huge rocks at the bottom of the salt sea, and long-lasting, endless high-pressure cyclones, with yellow lightning roaring inside.

There are also volcanoes in the Salt Sea, and naturally there are many minerals. But some of the minerals in the salt sea emit a strange kind of underground radiation that can even interfere with the workings of natural forces.

Traveling to the bottom of the Salt Sea, in addition to dealing with possible monsters, how to determine the orientation is also a huge problem. Magic has no vitality to extract in the salt sea, and it is affected by the radiation of the leylines, and it does not work from time to time. Psionic energy doesn't rely on life force, but it can also be interfered with by leyline radiation, so it's not good enough.

The Psychic Warlock had considered making a compass out, but he soon realized the absurdity of the idea. It's not that you can't find a magnet - it's easy to make with magic. Rather, because Atas has two moons, it is impossible to produce regular tides, so the compass has no effect.

The tidal action caused by the gravitational pull of the satellite can affect not only the liquid ocean on the planet's surface, but more importantly, the liquid mantle of the planet. And it is the spin of the liquid mantle that creates the geomagnetic field. So the two satellites, copied from the irregular Attas, simply have no geomagnetic field for orientation.

Psychic warlocks have also considered stargazing positioning, but the error of stargazing is too large to be relied on. So he wanted to simply build a sextant, and with this thing, he could observe the sun and accurately locate himself. However, Muhadi is not good at hands-on ability, and he can't make a sextant by himself, so he can only hope to entrust master craftsmen to see if they have a way.

Khora Zimi claimed that he had made all sorts of small traps for the face dancers, such as sleeve arrows, repeaters, and foldable gliders. Muhathir had little interest in the Assassin toys, but he did need someone who could make a sextant. After listening to the psychic man's description, the old man said that he could make that kind of thing, but in return, he wanted to be rewarded.

The Psychic Warlock stared at the old man in silence for a while, ordinary people were already frightened by his hints, but the old man was not afraid at all. He claimed that he wanted Muhadi to pass on some more knowledge to him before he would help him, otherwise he would not talk about it.

Simply woke up Rajat and burned the old man's brain, and the violent thoughts flashed. In the end, however, Muhati decided to trade some of the earth's metalworking knowledge for the old man's collaboration. Metal on Atas is so rare that most people can only use bone and stone as weapons. Give him some knowledge of this, and he will not be useful, so is what Muhadi thought.

Upon returning to Prince Corwin's mansion, Muhathir went directly to the prince and announced that he was looking forward to a meeting with the Ram Witch King, Abel Rachili. The latter was overjoyed and said that he would arrange it immediately.

"But," said Prince Corwin, "you insisted not long ago that you didn't want to meet the Witch King, what made you change your mind?"

"A woman. Muhathir said.

Corwin nodded, "Women are indeed very convincing creatures, but I didn't expect even psychic warlocks to be swayed. The girl I sent to warm the bed last time, you don't seem to like it very much. ”

"There are many kinds of women. The Psychic Warlock explained, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke. "About you, Corwin, I wonder if you're hiding something?"

Corwin looked at Muhadi with a look at the stranger, who tried to restrain himself from violently digging into the other's mental activity.

The prince shrugged his shoulders and said, "What did you hear?"

"Not much. Muhathir said. "But I've mentioned that you're different. ”

"Everyone is different, and no two people in this world are exactly the same. The prince said. "Even if it's a replica created with a mind demon, it's not the same as the main body. ”

Corwin clearly didn't want to continue the conversation, "Do you know what to look out for when meeting the Witch King?"

"Try not to get yourself killed. The Psychic Warlock said.

"Correct. Corwin nodded. "So it's best not to casually inquire about Ram's secrets, especially these days, there are puppeteers making trouble. I was worried that she couldn't have a good temper. ”

"Wasn't your sister ordered to capture the Great Psychic Warlock?" asked Muhadi.

"Exactly. Corwin agreed, "But she screwed up, and she was hard." It is said that she sent her men to other city-states to recruit powerful adventurers. It seems that the Templars alone can't contain that man. ”

"The Templar can't, the Witch King can. Muhathir said.

Corwin smiled strangely, "Well, let's see what happens." ”

The Psychic Warlock wondered, "How did she defeat the Puppeteer last time, but now she can do it again." I'm well aware of the limitations of psionic powers, and in the end, I can't fight against advanced magic. ”

Corwin shook his head, no more.

After retiring from Corwin, the Psychic Warlock met Raina again. The girl was quite happy to see Muhadi return safely. After the two chatted casually for a while, the girl told SΓΉ Muhadi a message: "During the time you were out, I heard that Corwin had secretly mobilized his warriors. ”

"Where did you hear that?" asked Muhadi.

"A maid," said the girl, "her lover is a soldier." He said that Corwin was nervous when he heard that someone had attacked your room, and ordered his more than a thousand samurai to be armored and ready for battle. When you come back, he lets those people disband...... I think he's Corwin weird. ”

Could this be manipulation of judgment, Muhathir thought. "Now that Corwin has just cleaned up Benedict, it's right to be careful. Just because Benedict's vault went bankrupt doesn't mean he's finished. Maybe he'll fight back again, and it's right to be on guard. ”

"How long are you going to stay in Ram?" asked Raina suddenly as they were about to part.

Wait for someone from Tyre to take over, "probably a month or two." "Then I may have to go to the Salt Sea." You can choose to go to Tyre, where I have a water plant. In Tyre, there is no need to worry about fugitive slave hunters or minions of the Witch King. ”

The girl nodded, then obediently said goodnight and left.

Muhati also inquired about the mercenaries by the way, and from the servants of the mansion, he learned that Muscle Daddy's mercenary group was causing trouble in the city of Ram, and in a short period of time there had been more than a dozen fights, several petty thefts and two blatant robberies.

There was even a mercenary who took a fancy to the sister of a certain minor nobleman, so he snatched him and rode him. The little nobleman who came to beg for his sister was taken by the muscular daddy and locked up in a tent all night. Because Corwin is now incredibly powerful, the mercenaries can do whatever they want and live very comfortably.

Tyre, Chamber of the Consuls.

"My lord," Congresswoman Neve said to Tessian, a former gladiator and now Councillor Ricas's right-hand man. "In the Battle of Tyre, we captured nearly 10,000 prisoners of war. A third of them were put to death, a third were sucked into our army, but a third was not settled. Combined with the spies and bandits captured during this time, we have five or six thousand people in our prison. ”

"With all due respect, Tyr's food reserves have dropped to a dangerous point. The previous wars affected the trade routes, and large quantities of food were dispersed to relieve the poor. Now we don't have the energy to raise another five or six thousand extra mouths. ”

Tessian nodded, he knew what Councillor Neve said, but he really couldn't solve it.

The king had made many efforts to increase the power of Tyr. On the one hand, he lowered the tax on the circulation of goods, and on the other hand, he encouraged the nomadic tribes who returned to Tyre to exchange meat for metal in the city. He also abolished many of the monopoly systems of the witch king, and did not hesitate to offend some of his former aristocratic friends to increase the income of the revolutionary government. He even called on Lord Eggis and other nobles to auction off some more of the artworks...... But money and food are still not enough.

Tessian really didn't know what to do with the prisoners in the prison, who were either sold into slavery or used as victims of the Witch King's spells during the Witch King's time. But now, these practices are unacceptable. Ironically, Tessian urgently needed a thousand men to satisfy Abu's dragon king, Polis, but he couldn't make up the numbers.

The king nodded that he had heard, "I understand this dilemma, but we don't have a good solution to it at the moment. We don't have enough food for ourselves, and the money must be used to strengthen our military. There is no shortage of labor in the city now, and I am afraid that we will have to further reduce the ration of these prisoners......"

"Your Excellency. An elven councillor stood up and interrupted the king. Tessian recognized him as Fahd of the Scorpio tribe, as he was also given a seat because his tribe was very large and he had been submitted early. "I might have a solution to this dilemma. ”

Tessian nodded solemnly, "The Council is waiting to hear your wisdom." ”

Councillor Fahd bowed gracefully, "My lord, now Tyre's resources have basically been invested in strengthening the military. We need more gold, more food and fewer people to feed. There is a way to achieve all three at the same time - to reopen the Tyre Colosseum. ”

As for the former gladiator-turned-councillors, the parliamentarians reacted even more, and in the midst of a boo, Rikas asked, "What does this mean?

"Athletics is a popular sport," Fahd said on his own, ignoring the opposition and rebuke of many lawmakers. "Look at the Colosseum, it can hold 50,000 people, and every gladiatorial fight is full. Ask yourselves, are there 50,000 nobles in Tyre, and aren't those who are usually attracted by gladiatorial fights and willing to pay for them are not all commoners?"

"The Colosseum has been a part of Tyre since its foundation. Essentially, the movement was not part of slavery. It is a celebration of battle and honor, a feast of courage, skill and strength, not just killing. He looked at Rikas and Neve. "The victors of gladiatorial battles are loved and praised, and those who die bravely are respected and remembered. The reopening of the Arena will surely attract people from all over Atas to trade in Tyre. Gold coins pouring from every corner of the desert will fill our coffers, enough to buy food that we will never run out of. ”

"In addition, humans, as well as humanoids, have a ** for blood in their hearts. Killing is a natural part of living things, and the arena can satisfy everyone and make Tyr more peaceful and stable. Fahd spoke eloquently. "The bandits and war criminals in our prison should have all been put to death. And the arena gives them a last chance to prove their innocence and gain freedom. ”

"Ridiculous. Congressman Rikas was dismissive. "Who would want to be on that sand again, entertained like a clown?"

"On this point," said Fahd, "why not listen to your kind, who were gladiators, and who fought with you in the battle to overthrow the Witch King, and hear what they have to say." ”

"Allow me to introduce," Fahd said loudly, "Dwarven gladiator Noni, half-elf gladiator Shirvan, Moorish gladiator Eternal Wound!" the three men walked through the main door into the council hall.

All three were well-known gladiator slaves in Tyre, at least once were. During the revolution, all three joined Rikas's team and risked their lives to fight the Witch King's minions. Rikas owes them a debt of his own, so he has to listen to them patiently.

"I have been a warrior since birth. The Moorish people are forever traumatized. "I've been learning to use scimitars and spears since I was three years old, and now that I'm free, why can't I choose to continue fighting?"

"If you want to fight, you can join the Deep Red Army and fight for me. Rikas said to him, "There are endless opportunities to fight. ”

"My brother joined the Deep Red Legion, and he died in a tunnel in the city, without honor or dignity. Eternal Trauma shook his head. "In the past, slaves wanted me to fight for them, but now you want me to fight for you, why can't I fight for myself?" he pounded his broad chest with his right fist. "Fighting for gold?"

"The eternal trauma is justified. The dwarf Nori continued, "The last time I was sold by my master, it was worth three thousand gold coins. At that time, I was eating fine food, and I squandered all kinds of precious spices. Now I live in the slums, sleeping on hay mats, and living by carrying goods for the caravans. I only know one skill, which is gladiatorial fighting, so let me gladiatorial fight. ”

"There are a lot of homeless people in the city," said the half-elf Shirvan. "And the crippled and the insane. Let them perform antics between gladiatorial fights in the reopened Colosseum, at least better than starve them. The corpses left behind after the fight can be distributed to the poor who have nothing, so why not?"

"The winner gets that qiΔ“. "When you lose, you become a name, carved in stone, waiting to be forgotten." ”

"With all due respect, Lord Ricas. Noni returned the favor. "The risk of gladiatorial combat is much smaller than when you go to the battlefield to fight the Witch King, so why do you have to fight?"

Neve and Rikas had nothing to say, and Tessian was very happy when she saw the two of them, and she couldn't help but have a good impression of this elven councilor. "So it was decided," said the king. "I invite you to vote on the financing of the reopening of the Colosseum by MP Fahd. ”

The Rikas legislators abstained, but the majority voted for the bill.

With the prisoner's problem solved, the king was in a much better mood and more confident about what he was going to do next. Tessian stood in front of the House of Representatives, majestic and majestic, his tall and strong body revealing bravery and determination. The muscular statue around his neck is as tall as it is, and his eyes are piercing.

Ever since King Tessian learned that each city-state had to pay a thousand slaves to the dragon king Polis every year, he secretly wondered how to solve this problem. Slavery in Tyre has been abolished, and it is impossible to find a thousand volunteers who volunteered to die. Tessian can't blatantly go to other city-states to buy slaves, you must know that his throne is very unstable, and Shatiri and Rikas are all watching from the sidelines. Wait for him to make a mistake at any time, and then pull him off the throne.

Previously, he had secretly commissioned a great psychic sorcerer to catch mercenaries for him in distant Atqui. He thought that what was born in such a distant place, Tyr would not know. And if there is a group of mercenaries missing in the desert, no one will care. Who would have thought that a few days later, the Great Psychic Warlock reported that he had quit his job and that he was going to hunt down an enemy.

When that failed, Tessian tried to send his henchmen disguised as robbers to raid the settlements. But before the plan could be implemented, it had to be abandoned. The reason for this was that a group of nomadic tribes who had broken away from the Witch King coalition had tried to loot several villages under Tyre's rule. The Coral Witch uses her magic to detect an attack that is still alive and then destroys all the enemies that come to her visit. This made Tessian realize that it was impossible for her to fool Shatiri lightly

As the deadline given by the dragon king Polis approached day by day, Tessian became more agitated. He knew better than anyone that the power of the dragon king was not comparable to that of ordinary witch kings, and the complete demon dragon transformation was known as invincible in the world, so naturally it was not something that the current Tyr could fight.

He understood that if others learned of Dragonlord Polis's request, they would only arrogantly refuse, and then fight to the death. But he won't let Tyre perish like that, no matter what others say, he will save the city in his own way.

For this he decided to go to war.

The city of Yurik, near Tyre, has been sacked by the Ankara Army and the Nibenai Army since the death of the Witch King Hamanu. Now it is almost in ruins, with only 20,000 or 30,000 inhabitants left, and the army is weak and vulnerable.

If Tyre had been able to capture Yurik, the power and prestige of the revolutionary government would have been strengthened like never before. With these two cities as the core, half of the platform land (tab1e1and) will be under the control of the revolutionary army. And the king of Taixi, who realizes this qiΔ“, will win the longing of 10,000 people.

What's more, where there is war, there will be prisoners of war. Some of the anti-detection magic left behind by the Witch King in Ulric City is still working, and there, Tessian can be sure that a thousand people will be hidden without being detected.

In order to start a war, a king needs the support of his parliamentarians.

Thanks to fate, thanks to the efforts of his assistant, the Starch Spencer Pai Druid Camilla, an elixir that allowed the Moors to reproduce was revealed. With the help of this potion, he was able to shake hands with the Moorish Councillor Rikas. But this peace is very fragile, and Rikas essentially hates the Witch King's lackeys. As a former Templar, Tessian is the most hated by Ricas.

Thinking of Camilla, Tessian couldn't help but look at his right-hand side. She wasn't there, and Camila had rarely stood by his side lately, so she must have gone to the halfling ruins underground. Ever since the halfling ruins appeared, Camilla seemed to be fascinated by it, and was always there to conduct strange research. What to do, Tessian didn't understand.

The Templar Warrior was the highest status a person could dream of in the era of the Witch King. Tessian was able to become Carrak's Templar Warrior in part because he was proficient in both magic and martial arts, and partly because he knew how to be careful and not make mistakes. Although Camila seems loyal and shrewd, Tessian doesn't fully trust her. The secret of this druid, even he can't see through it.

A psychic warlock and nobleman, Councilor Achilles was a natural ally of King Theysian. The great merchant Fowad ibn Abbas favored him, as did Councillor Shoshana and Councillor Dane. Some of the other legislators were bribed by him, and some were originally slaves, and they willingly supported a bill to crack down on slave owners.

Tessian felt that as long as Shatiri the Coral Witch didn't oppose his war plan, then it would be a matter of course.

Shatiri the Coral Witch sat in the middle of the House of Representatives, which had been an ordinary seat, unusual, covered in leather with wood and no backrest. But strangely, the Coral Witch sat there, making that ordinary position as noble as a throne. Although the other parliamentarians sat beside her, they became foils like the stars holding the moon.

If everyone else is a candle flame, Shatiri is the sun. Tessian couldn't help but think that she was sitting at the table and I was sitting on the throne. Why do I still feel inferior?

The former Templar rejoiced that he had come up with the idea of a separation of powers, and had succeeded in depriving the Coral Witch of direct control over Salafist and the Revolutionary Army. He installed his cronies in the army and various departments, and Shatiri did not appear to be greedy for power, giving up the power in her hands, and seemed to be content to be a councillor with peace of mind.

She is just showing weakness and buying people's hearts, Taixi thinks in her heart. But at that time, he was still greatly relieved, if Shatiri was unwilling to let go of power, then he could only be a puppet yuan. Although many claim that during the Battle of Tyre, Hamanu accidentally died at the hands of a small psychic mancer. But this lie could not deceive Tessian, and if the psychic warlocks could kill a witch king, they would not have been able to hide in the north for a long time.

Tessian knew that it was Shatiri who killed Hamanu, just as she killed Karak. Tessian despised the mess of the council and the foolish councillors, but he didn't dare to go too far, lest he kill the Coral Witch himself.

Taixi's intention to start a war is also somewhat confident.

After defeating the Tri-Cities Alliance, Tyre's army underwent a major overhaul. First, the system of buying and selling military ranks and the hereditary system, inherited from the time of the Witch King Karak, was completely abolished and replaced by a more rational system of military merit. The status of a military man is now determined by his talent and merit, not by wealth and blood. During the Battle of Tyre, the outstanding soldiers were promoted, and those who fled were beheaded by the king's own hands, and their bodies were hung in the Punishment Square.

The blood tax system was promoted, and emancipated slaves rushed to join the army in order to obtain tax exemptions. The old command system was also renovated, and a command company with a clear division of labor and a rational structure was established. The training of soldiers is also more formalized, rigorous and effective. Officers can issue complex orders without worrying about their subordinates being at a loss. Under the newly established Drisherme system, four-fifths of the spoils of war went to the soldiers, preventing corruption among officers and causing a decline in morale.

Now Tyr's new army is not like the old Witch King's army - just a group of elite and many conscripted slave soldiers, it has a well-defined division of troops and a quick brain. The military band, the new logistical support system and the military medical system have made the morale of this new army unprecedentedly high.

Since Tyr occupies one of the largest iron mines in Attas, the equipment of this force is arguably the best in the world. Large quantities of metal scimitars and spears were distributed to each soldier, and chain mail and shell plates captured from the battlefield were distributed among the officers. Because the captured armor made the army look tattered, the Governing Council later decided to have all the soldiers wear uniformly cloaked and robes over their armor, covering their faces and revealing only their eyes. Now it seems that the new army is indeed much more powerful.

The Shatiri cannons, which shone in the Battle of Tyre, were also managed to be equipped with the new troops, a mobile version much smaller than those embedded in the walls, but also more than twenty meters long and more than two meters in caliber. Urged by mages, the cannon can penetrate several meters of thick masonry walls at a time, or vaporize dozens of enemies gathered together. The crude oil extracted from the Muhadi water plant was made into weapons such as incendiary bombs and fierce fire oil, which were also rationed to the new army.

The idea of reforming the army was conceived by a psyker under Councillor Ekis, and Rikas the Moorish strongly supported the plan because he hated the one qiΔ“ system left behind by the old Witch King. King Tessian also strongly supported this plan, as it would give him the opportunity to install his own cronies and expel Shatiri's influence. Although Rikas was also a warrior, he was uneducated and unable to actually lead the reform of the military system. It was Tai Xi'an who really forged this new army.

After the completion of the military reform, the new army of Tyre had 25,000 men and 30 cannons. The number of this army alone is more than that of any other city-state in the desert, and the quality is far superior. The citizens of Tyre looked proudly at their Jerichanies (the new army) and proudly praised anyone who passed by them.

In addition to the new army, another army of Tyre, Salafiste, was also reformed. Although there are many mages in the army of the Witch Kings, they are very scattered in their use, unlike these guardian mages found by Shatiri who are used to fighting in teams. Tessian had them train with ordinary soldiers to increase the understanding between the troops. These men proved to be better fighters than the average New Army, and they were all determined and experienced. They are not many in number, only about two thousand, but when used in the right place, they will be a decisive striking force.

The king's most elite henchmen were his Megilot lizard cavalry. Most of these men were former Templars, skilled and experienced. With the lizard cavalry as the core, troops on horseback and camel riding, shell beetle riding were also created.

Tessian ingeniously divided the cavalry into shock cavalry and chaser cavalry according to their use, rather than the traditional light cavalry and heavy cavalry according to the level of equipment. Tyre's shock cavalry, which consisted mostly of slaves and former mercenaries, was naturally not good at equestrianism, but it was still incredibly powerful when they learned to charge in dense formations after training in TongguΓ². The elite Lizard Cavalry acts as a chassar, dispatching in small teams for early warning, driving away scouts, and conducting small-scale power reconnaissance. Their excellent riding skills and excellent equipment make them invincible in the duel of equal numbers.

In the event of a critical situation, the Council also authorized the King of Thesian to recruit tribal cavalry archers from friendly tribal names to supplement the Tyre army. With the addition of tribal warriors, the cavalry strength of Tyre reached five thousand.

In terms of conventional military strength alone, Tyr is already one of the few in the desert, which is the confidence of Tessian.

"Today," Tessian began, his hands outstretched in a downward gesture, and the tumult of the councillors died down. "I am delighted to join you in what is destined to be the greatest moment in the history of Tyre, and indeed in the history of Artas. ”

The king's voice was full of majesty, "A year ago, a great Tyre made a revolution that shook the world and killed the tyrant Karak, and today we are gathered in the palace where the tyrant once was. The light of the revolution was like a beacon of hope for the millions of slaves who were tormented by the fires of injustice that destroyed their lives. Its arrival is like a joyous dawn, ending the long night that binds the less fortunate. ”

Now, one year later, we must face up to the fact that the world is still not free. Today, a year later, behind the walls of Nibenai and in the city of Ram, under the yoke of Ankara and in the ruins of Yurik, slaves are still living under oppression. Now, a year later, Tyre is still the only island of freedom in this tragic world. Today, a year later, the vast majority of the world's slaves are still huddled in the lowest corners of society, humbly dedicating their lives to greedy and brutal slave owners. We are gathered here today to make everyone aware of these appalling realities. ”

Many of the slave-born councillors listened to the king's words, and their eyes showed determination and hatred, and they were somewhat moved. Grabbing the spear, the slogan of jihad was shouted again.

"In a sense, we are here today to deliver on our promises. Tessian said, looking at Shatiri. "We, the founders of the revolutionary government of Tyre, stand on the ruins of the palace of the Witch King, and make a promise to our citizens, promising to grant all people the inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. "Squeeze you in your own words, so you can't oppose war, right?

"In the current state of the world today, it is clear that this promise has not been fulfilled. Tyre has been liberated, which is good. But the whole world is still bound in chains! Can we build a paradise in a corner of hell, can we turn a blind eye to so much suffering and injustice in the world?"

"Grab your spear!" shouted one of the councillors. "Holy War!"

"Spears, scimitars, blood and glory!" shouted more councillors. "Holy War!"

The men excitedly drew their weapons, and the women tore their heads. The guards of the hall were also infected by the fanatical love xΓΉ and trembled slightly.

"Kill all the slave owners! Liberate the whole world! Wage a holy war!"

If it weren't for Tessian's knowledge of these councilors, he would have been infected by this strong affection at this time. Many of the legislators who clamor for jihad were once slave owners themselves. The king swept his gaze over the crowd, but that was exactly what I thought, he thought.

"I do not believe that the quest for justice has been extinguished in the hearts of each of us in Tyre. I don't believe that there are no more people in this great city who have sympathy for suffering. So we are gathered here to ask for the promise to be kept!"

"Today, I stand in this holy place of freedom to remind you that this is a very urgent time. Now is not the time to calm down and cooperate with the slave owners of the other city-states. Now is the time to fulfill the promise of the revolution. It is time to climb the bright path of equality for all from the desolate and dark valley of slavery, to open the door of opportunity to all the sons and daughters of Attas, to save our world from the quicksand of exploitation and oppression and to place it on the rock of brotherhood. ”

"If Tyre ignores the urgency of time and underestimates the determination of the people, then it will be a fatal wound for Tyre. If the crisp autumn of freedom and equality does not come, the scorching heat of the slaves' righteous indignation will not pass. If we fail to deliver on our promises, a whirlwind of discontent is bound to shake the city's foundations...... The revolution in Tyre a year ago did not mean the end of the struggle, but the beginning. Some people hope that we Tyrs will be satisfied if we are angry, but they are wrong!"

"Tyre will never make peace with the oppressors, the slave owners, the tyrants who don't work for anything. Just as light and darkness never shake hands, good and evil do not shake hands, and good and ugly do not shake hands. We believe in the opposite of each other, and there will never be room for compromise. There were those who thought because of my origins that I would seek to unite with the Witch Kings, and you were wrong!"

Tessian said this, looking at the House members with satisfaction. Councillor Ekis applauded enthusiastically, and Ricas's expression was a little suspicious, his expression was too far from his impression of himself. Although the Coral Witch also applauded softly, her face was calm, and no one knew what she was thinking.

"When we act, we have to make sure to move forward, not backwards. Now if somebody asks me, 'When will you be satisfied?'"

"As long as the other city-states do not abandon their hostility and blockade of Tyre, we will never be satisfied. ”

"As long as the Witch Kings still rule over a hundred and ten city-states, wreaking havoc on their own violence, we will not be satisfied. ”

"As long as there is a slave in the world, and there is a slave owner, we will never be satisfied!"

"No, we are not satisfied now, and we will not be satisfied in the future, unless justice and fairness are like a rolling sandstorm, surging and sweeping in. ”

"I am not unaware that some of you doubt that Tyr will be able to take on the burden of extending freedom to the whole of Athas, and beyond. Tessian raised her voice. "I ask these people to recall that for thousands of years, people thought that the Witch King was unkillable, but just a year ago, Karak died at the hands of our revolutionaries!"

When the parliamentarians heard this, they were overwhelmed and could not help themselves. Most of them stood up and clapped in support. Hearing Tessian call herself a revolutionary, Shatiri chuckled, and the momentary glory made everyone who saw it lose their minds for a long time.

"Friends," said the king, "I want to say to you that at this moment, in spite of all the difficulties and setbacks we have suffered, our ideals will never be extinguished. The pursuit of freedom and equality will never be extinguished. ”

The applause was even louder, "Grab the spear and start the holy war!" the people shouted.

"There are some things I must say to people who are anxious and eager to liberate the world. War is brutal and sacrifice is inevitable. In spreading the seeds of justice to every corner of the desert, we will die by swords, we will die by the flames, and we will wither to the wicked blasphemer spells of the Witch Kings. But even when we're dead, we're still going to laugh. For no one is immortal, and freedom and hope cannot be extinguished!"

"Some people say that it is better to choose to forbear for the time being, accumulate strength, and let the world see our anger in the future? Tessian deliberately said this in a sarcastic tone, drawing boos from the councillors. "I tell these people that there is a word in my dictionary that better describes this kind of behavior - cowardice!"

"Sue me, sons and daughters of Tyre, are you cowards?!"

"No!" the people shouted.

"So brave people of Tyr, why should we be afraid of the hardships and difficulties of the future? Our struggle is not the struggle of one city against one world. Rather, it is a struggle of ideals against dark realities. Thoughts never die, and so do our struggles!" Tessian's heroic hand raised and waved it vigorously.

The applause rang out, "Grab the spear and start the holy war!" Even the guards in the hall slammed the hilt of their spears against the ground with a rhythmic thump.

"For thousands of years, the souls of the martyrs who rebelled against the tyranny of the Witch King have been with us. Their courage is with us, their hatred is with us, and we will witness a new world born from our hands, or die on the way to build it!"

"Grab the spear!" "Holy War!"

"I dream of the day when Atas will no longer be a place full of exploitation and oppression, injustice and cruelty. It will turn into an oasis of freedom and justice. ”

"I dream of a day when the desert will be green again, and the white clouds will obscure the red sun. Water falls from the sky, and everyone lives freely in the world, loving each other like brothers and sisters. ”

"I dream of a day when the sons of former slaves will be able to sit with the sons of former slave owners in every corner of Attas, and share brotherhood.

The more the king spoke, the more agitated he became, and the councillors shouted "Grab the spear!" and "Engage in holy war!"

"I declare that Tyre has now officially declared war on slavery......" Tessian glanced around, majestic. "Declare war on the tyrant! Declare war on an injustice! This is our holy war for freedom! We will die of honor, or liberate the whole world! The army of Tyr will march to Yurik, then Ram, Nebennai, Abu, the whole world!"

The sound of spear striking became more and more intense. "Holy war, holy war, holy war, holy war!" the people's cries were so united that they could not be distinguished.
