Chapter 242: Dissuasion
"Smaller, smaller. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info is in the limelight right now, which is not necessarily a good thing. Kunnir sighed, shook his head and said, "The current Nine Rings White Tower is not worthy of such great influence.
Quinnier's claim to withdraw this time was not simply to mislead Anthony or make impromptu angry remarks, but a decision made after repeated discussions with Douglas before. Even without the injuries in this attack, Quinnir was ready to withdraw soon after.
And now that he was suddenly attacked and injured, and he had a conflict with the Church of the Gods and the Kingdom of Calendula, the timing was very right, so Quinnir directly announced the decision that had been made a long time ago, and misled Anthony by the way.
And the reason why Quinnell and Douglas made such a decision was also after comprehensive consideration. One of the main reasons is that the limelight during the period before the White Tower of the Nine Rings was a little too big.
From being attracted by Luo Sheng's plan, Douglas decided to take a risk, change the original conservative policy of the Nine Rings White Tower, and instead began to seek expansion.
Especially the Church of the Gods, which was already hostile to the White Tower of the Nine Rings, was even more stimulated. Like the God of War Church, a ceremony was held in advance to usher in the arrival of the God of War Angel, which included the factors stimulated by the Nine Rings White Tower.
In this case, the high-profile Nine-Ring White Pagoda actually has a bit of a taste of public criticism. Especially in the case of the gradual recovery of the power of the gods and the rapid growth of the power of the Church of the Gods, the Nine Rings White Pagoda has actually been faintly resisted by many forces. Like this time, the masters of the Church of the Gods would rather be aggrieved than help fight back and reduce the pressure on the side of the Nine Ring White Tower, which is a manifestation of this mentality.
Therefore, if Quinil continues to stay in the Demon Slayer Canyon with Anthony and controls nearly half of the dominance of the spatial seal, it is tantamount to continuing to compete with other forces for the right to speak and influence in a high-profile manner. Although with the current strength of the Nine Rings White Tower, it should be able to barely maintain the situation. But as the power of the gods continues to recover and the Church of the Gods continues to grow, the balance of power will quickly reverse. An oracle blessed with the power of the gods will quickly become stronger, gaining power that rivals that of a Legendary-level master. After they join forces, their strength will be far superior to that of the Nine Rings White Pagoda at this stage.
And at that time, the behavior of the Nine Ring White Tower to compete for the right to speak and influence will undoubtedly be hostile and suppressed by many forces. In the case of a mismatch between strength and influence, the situation of the Nine Rings White Tower will be quite dangerous. The Church of the Gods and other forces that want to regain their influence will join forces to suppress the White Tower of the Nine Rings, and in extreme cases, they may even choose to besiege it.
So after realizing this, both Douglas and Quinnier decided to take a step back for the time being. Quinir took the initiative to withdraw from the Demon Slayer Canyon and reduce his influence on the spatial seal, which was equivalent to taking the initiative to take a step back from the Church of the Gods that had been faintly united, and relinquishing part of his influence and voice in the future Anti-Demon Alliance. Although this will make the Nine Ring White Tower suffer some setbacks in terms of momentum, it will not have too serious an impact, and it is just the right opportunity to change the domineering image caused by the previous period of large-scale expansion.
Moreover, Quinir's return to the Island of Truth is equivalent to freeing up a Legendary-level combat power to join the expansion at this stage. The White Pagoda of the Ninth Ring can annex the coastal states of the Northland more quickly and more securely, and completely turn this area into its own sphere of influence and become the foundation for its own power growth.
Therefore, on the whole, Kunnier's step back is tantamount to using some false fame and influence in exchange for the Nine Rings White Tower to establish a solid foundation more quickly, which is actually quite cost-effective. After all, in the future changes, prestige and influence are important, and they can affect the fate of their own forces to a certain extent, but what can really determine their own fate is always their own strong strength.
"Quinnier, have you really decided? Do you want to ask Speaker Douglas again?" Anthony still persuaded a little unwillingly: "It's a pity to give up this good situation now." ”
Although he understands the choice made by Quinil, and even understands the deep meaning of Quinil's concession, Anthony is not too willing to let Quinil get what he wants. Because if Quinnir returns, it will not be beneficial to the development of the Arcane Revival Society.
The reason for saying this is partly because Quinnier is Douglas's biggest supporter and the three people who are qualified to spy on Snotta. His return means that Douglas's dominance on the Isle of Truth is back to its peak, which is very detrimental to the actions of the Arcane Revival Society.
Especially at this stage, after the outbreak of Rasen's killing of Rubin, the organization of the Arcane Revival Society in the White Tower of the Nine Rings is facing a major crisis. And the source of the crisis is Quinir's disciple Luo Sheng. If Quinniel returns to the Island of Truth, even if he is injured, he can still suppress all of Snota's small actions, resist Bob's pressure, and give Rason enough protection in law. If Luo Sheng told Snotta under this kind of protection, it would be a catastrophe for Snota.
And once Snotta is forced to be exposed and 'purified' by Douglas, then even if Anthony has a backup of Snota's memories in his hands and a means to reactivate Snota's original consciousness, the Arcane Revival will suffer huge losses.
On the other hand, from a strategic point of view, the Arcane Revival wants the White Tower of the Nine Rings to continue to be high-profile and attract the attention and hatred of the Church of the Gods. Because the attention and strength of the Church of the Gods are also limited, after these pressures are concentrated in the Nine Rings White Tower, the environment of the Arcane Revival Society will be much more relaxed, more convenient to develop, and much less dangerous.
And in the future, the more the Nine-Ring White Tower is squeezed out and suppressed by the Church of the Gods, the more the identity of the Arcane Empire's relics will be recognized within the Nine-Ring White Tower. When the Nine-Ring White Tower was suppressed and even besieged by the Church of the Gods because it was too high-profile, and fell into a great disadvantage, the Arcane Revival Society might have the opportunity to force Douglas to join its own camp and then take over the entire Nine-Ring White Tower.
So although he knew that Quinir's choice was more correct, Anthony still tried to dissuade Quinil under the banner of thinking about the White Tower of the Nine Rings.
"Oh well. I'll talk to Douglas again, and when he's decided, we'll talk about it. After a deep look at Anthony, Quinnier nodded and said calmly.
