The elemental fusion reactor was finally developed, and Luke was confident that with Amelia's talent and the right path he had shown him, the epochal invention could have been made years earlier.

Then it will be applied, popularized and miniaturized.

In addition, those inventions that need to rely on the element fusion reactor to appear can also be approved in advance, and personnel can be arranged to accumulate pre-technology.

When the elemental fusion reactor is built, it can use the fastest speed to explode the high-level magic alchemy technology.

On the Oulu Academy, it's up to Clear Sky to arrange.

On the city alchemist's side, Luke personally supervises it. Batch after batch of magical alchemists have been mined from all over the world.

One study after another, and a research group was set up under Luke's arrangement.

Small floating devices

Point-to-point teleportation corridors

Alchemy life

Unmanned Enchanted Machine

……

A large amount of magical alchemy research, which was all delusional in the eyes of Mrs. Mihil, was forcibly promoted by Luke. If some key people were not invited by the Government Affairs Department, Luke was no longer polite, and directly arranged for Viscount Yin Scolan to send someone to find a way to "invite" him.

156n.

Like a machine, the city runs under Luke's control, gathering strength for the challenges ahead.

While Luke was busy with the city's affairs, the war broke out in the northern part of the empire as everyone expected.

When the first snow fell on the northern border, the Artshire Union gathered 800,000 troops, with fifteen armored assault divisions as the main force, to launch an all-out attack on the northern defense line of the Golden Shield Empire from three directions.

Although the ground has not completely frozen to the point of affecting the movement speed of the War Fortress, the Artshire Union is still in full swing, leveling the first line of defense of the Empire's Northern Legions.

The Imperial Northern Legion knew that it would not be able to stop the attack of the Arte-County Union on the border line, so it withdrew all the main forces into the permanent fortresses built on the second and third lines, trying to rely on a strong defense system to withstand the attack of the Arte-County Union.

The battle reports of the northern front passed through the city of St. Lun, and then continued to be delivered to Luke in the city of Fury.

As soon as there is a new battle report, Luke will bring in the snow who is familiar with the north, and let her analyze the battle situation for herself.

The two men gathered around the map on the table, and the staff officer laid out a model representing the military units of both sides according to the battle report.

Looking at Xue Lai's expression, he knew that the battle situation in the north was not optimistic.

"Yesterday, the 65th and 34th battle groups of the Yate Regiment captured the 987th, 874th, and 842nd forts in the north; Heavy damage to the Royal 7th Armoured Assault Division; The 546th Infantry Regiment and the 478th Infantry Regiment in the north were almost completely annihilated.

Both sides of Snowfield were exposed to the Artshire United. On the south side of Snowland is the Hainkoy River, which is under the control of the Legion of the North, as the soft ground along the river is not conducive to the movement of the war fortress.

Now Snow City is the only remaining city in the second-line defense system in the north, and holding this salient will not dare to invest too many troops in other places. But in a month's time, the land is completely frozen, and the Artere-County Union can be thrown into the War Fortress to storm Snow City.

I don't think the Empire will give up Snow City easily. A month from now, a large-scale battle is sure to break out here!

The direction of attack for Atlantshire United should be ......"

…

Luke looked at the map and listened to Xuelai's explanation.

Both sides of Snowfield have been occupied by the Atlants, and the Empire's Northern Legion only maintains a triangular salient here. There are 100,000 Imperial troops stationed in Snowfield, including an armored assault division. At the same time, the Northern Legion also used the bridges on part of the river of the Hainkoy River under its control to continuously send supplies to Snow City, preparing to defend Snow City, stuck in the most uncomfortable place in the Artshire Union.

Luke waited for the snow to finish his explanation, and said, "I just received the latest news from the Imperial Intelligence Bureau, and the queen has followed the vehicle carrying supplies into Snow City. ”

Hearing that the queen had entered Snow City, Xue Lai was very surprised.

"How can Her Royal Highness go to such a dangerous place! Although I estimate that the Atlantshire United will launch a general attack on Snowland in a month's time, if the other side knows that the Imperial Empress is in Snowland, it is very likely that they will launch an attack on the Hainkoy River and cut off the connection between Snow City and the rear.

At that time, the queen was trapped in the lonely city......"

Luke said, "The Northern Legion has retreated to the third line, and beyond that is the open plain. If Snowland is lost, the Artshire Union will be able to attack the last line of defense of the Northern Legion without any scruples, and the Northern Legion will most likely not be able to hold it.

Therefore, Snow City must be defended, even if it is surrounded by enemy troops, it must do its best to defend it. Her Royal Highness is adventurous, but the best strategy is for her to be a great encouragement to the defenders of Snow City. ”

Xue looked at the controlled areas of both sides on the map and asked, "May Her Highness be safe!" My lord, when are we going to war? ”

"Let's wait for this winter to pass. As long as the North survives this winter, the situation will be much better. Our task now is to make money, turn the money we earn into combat effectiveness, and then participate in the war at the right time. ”

Xue Lai asked worriedly, "Will the North survive this winter?" ”

"......I don't know," Luke replied easily, "I can't hold on, and there is also the city of St. Lun in front of me." As long as we win the naval war in the near future, we will have a very large space for strategic maneuver.

Time is on our side. ”

Luke's strategy is beyond Xuelai's comprehension, she says, "Although I don't understand the strategy of adults, I believe in the wisdom of adults. ”

At this time, Karina knocked on the door and walked in: "Lord Governor, Director Pan and Director Yin are here, do you want to see them this time?" ”

Since Luke returned to the Raging Waves, Pan has visited the government office several times, but Luke has always refused to meet him because he is busy with affairs. Even though Yin came alone, Luke didn't meet her.

This time, Luke thought about it for a moment and felt that there was something to talk about, so he asked Karina to take Pan Kazune to the reception room.

"Tell the two directors that my officers and I will go over to see them after discussing the situation in the north."

"Yes, Lord Governor!"

Iwa Kazune was taken to the reception room.

Karina poured tea for the two of them, and told them that the Doge would be here in a moment.

Pan ignored Karina with a cold face, and Yin said apologetically, "Miss Karina, you don't have to be here with us. We are old friends with the Governor of Meteor, and you can go about your work. ”

"Thank you for your understanding, it's been a lot of work during this time. Please wait here for ...... two trustees," Karina smiled and bowed.

…

After the door closed, Yin sat down on the sofa next to the coffee table, scooped a sugar cube from the sugar box with a small spoon and put it out of the teacup, and slowly stirred.

The quiet appearance is like a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world.

"Pan, why are you so angry? Is it because of the meteor's neglect of you? You should know that the Golden Shield Empire is being invaded by the Artshire Alliance, and Meteorite, as the governor of Raging Waves City and the cabinet minister of the Golden Shield Empire, must have a lot of work to do every day.

The House of Elders just asked us to ask the Governor of Meteor about the revival of the World Tree, and it doesn't seem to be in a hurry.

You always remind me that as a shimmering gold person, you have to control your emotions, and this time it's your heart that is disturbed! ”

Yin brought the tea mixed with sugar to Pan, and at the same time reminded his brother that his restless emotions did not take advantage of the practice of the shimmering people.

Pan realizes that his mood swings are indeed too great, and he has been noticed by Yin. He took a sip of his tea, then placed the cup on the table.

"No...... You don't know about the old guys in the House of Elders, but they actually attach great importance to the revival of the World Tree.

Didn't you find out?

In the past, there must have been a message from the Presbytery urging us to find it, and the rhetoric became more and more harsh, but this time...... They didn't say a word about it. ”

Only then did Yin notice that the order sent by the Elders' House recently did not mention the lost dragon soul.

"Could it be that the World Tree is more important to the House of Elders than the Dragon Soul?"

Pan said thoughtfully, "There is too little information for me to judge." It was our fault that we couldn't find the dragon soul, and the World Tree couldn't go wrong again, otherwise we wouldn't be able to give an account to the House of Elders.

This is the cause of my distraction. ”

Yin mixed his tea and said, "The House of Elders only says that the dragon soul is in Angry Waves City, but Angry Waves City is so big, how can it be so easy to find. Perhaps the person who stole the dragon soul would have left here with the dragon soul a long time ago.

As for the World Tree......

Miss Sunny Sky is the queen of the Moonlight Court, and Meteorite is the first assistant of the Moonlight Court, and according to our relationship with the two of them, this task is much easier than finding the dragon soul. ”

"Is it easy?" When Pan thought that he was facing a meteorite, he felt that things would definitely not be easy. And what upset him was not the World Tree at all.

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and Pan immediately felt a ripple in Yina's heart, which had just been as still as water.

Yin stood up and saluted: "Your Excellency the Governor! ”

When Pan saw the people who came in, he also stood up: "Lord Governor! ”

Luke laughed, "Sit down...... Everyone is an old friend, so don't be so polite. ”

Pan said with a thorn in his words: "It's so difficult for old friends to see you." If we were ordinary friends, we wouldn't even be able to enter the door of the government hall. ”

The voice of "Pan ......" reminded his brother in a low voice.

Luke sat down, still with a smile on his face: "It's just because you're old friends and can understand my difficulties that I made you wait a few more days."

I am currently the Minister of the Imperial Cabinet, the Director of the Sixth Division of the Imperial Intelligence Agency, and the Governor of Fury City. Things in all three directions are stuffed into me, and I'm so busy that even sleeping is a luxury of leisure.

Forgive me for neglecting my old friend! Excuse me! ”

…

Otoya persuaded, "Yes, Pan! The Governor of the Falling Star has several important responsibilities, and the Golden Shield Empire is in an extraordinary period, so he must be too busy to see us.

With the task assigned by the House of Elders, we will explain to the Governor of Meteorite as soon as possible not to delay the work of the Governor. ”

Pan also wanted to put on a high posture to pinch the meteorite, but he didn't expect his sister's elbow to turn out.

With all his momentum, he had no choice but to say lukewarmly: "We have received an order from the Elder Council of Shuojin, and we want to know as much as possible about the revival of the Ancestral Grassland World Tree. The World Bank of St. Lun City has been in contact with Miss Sunny Sky, and Her Majesty has said that she has entrusted you with carte blanche for the diplomacy of the Moonlight Court, and here we are. ”

Yin added, "The World Tree is a transcendent creature that has existed since ancient times, and has witnessed the rise and fall of entire ancient civilizations. The House of Elders considers the World Tree to be a companion of the Shining Gold people of the same era, and hopes to establish a friendly relationship with the Moonlight Court. ”

After hearing Pan Heyin's words, Luke's face changed and said, "Speaking of the World Tree, I must talk to you about the ancient war as the first assistant of the queen of the Moonlight Royal Court.

According to what we know and all available historical records, the World Tree remained absolutely neutral during ancient warfare. It didn't attack either side, and it won't attack, but it was destroyed by you.

How painful is it for you to attack a transcendent creature that has existed since time immemorial, for no apparent reason, and even let the fire burn on it for at least five years? And also...... How many World Tree Scrollers were directly killed in that war, and how many Scrollers died because the World Tree was destroyed?

Now that you don't have any expression, you want to establish a friendly relationship with the Moonlight Court, which is simply an insult to the World Tree! ”

Pan looked at the indignant meteorite in shock, his face was full of spittle stars that suddenly sprayed over, and it took a while to react to what the meteorite said?

Pan took the handkerchief handed by Yin and wiped his face, and retorted: "This was all thousands of years ago, what does it have to do with the current Shuojin people?" ”

Luke snorted again, "Although the branches of the World Tree were destroyed thousands of years ago, its root system is still there, and it still shelters the ancestral steppes and the western realm. For thousands of years, it has suffered every day, and part of this pain is the responsibility of you shimmering people.

As long as you admit that you are the Glittering Gold, you must bear the sins of your ancestors! ”

"Watch your demeanor!" Pan, who was sprayed with spit again, couldn't help but roar: "For thousands of years, the people of Shuojin have been examining their mistakes in ancient wars and trying their best to make up for the wounds left on the world. Now the world can have such prosperity, which is inseparable from the contribution of the Shuojin people.

Having a friendly relationship with the Glittering Gold has many benefits for the Moonlight Court, but don't be delusional about convicting the Sparkling Gold Man. ”

Pan took out the momentum of a high civilization.

Although the Glittering Gold Civilization has declined now, it is a comparison with the period of its strength. In this era, the Shining Gold Civilization is still an extremely powerful existence.

The strong admit their faults and show mercy to the weak. It is the touching and sublimation of self-morality. But the weak are not qualified to judge the right and wrong of the strong, let alone say that the strong have committed crimes!

But who wanted to sound but said, "Pan...... I think the Shimmers did commit a crime against the World Tree. People of all ages know that the World Tree is harmless, and its passing is an indelible regret and pain for the whole world.

Now that the World Tree has recovered, I think it makes sense for the Moonlight Court to ask the Shimmering Gold Man to take responsibility. If we can really help revive the World Tree, we can make up for the mistakes made by our ancestors. ”

Pan glared angrily!

Feeling Pan's anger, he immediately shut up, but couldn't help but say, "We can report the request of the Moonlight Royal Court to the House of Elders, and the elders will make the decision." ”
