Chapter 545: The Empire's Reaction

The main driver's seat was operated by the goblin Tokani, and Lin was sitting in the passenger seat. The group in the back row was still not used to the acceleration of the Sid. They gritted their teeth and let themselves sink into their seats, for fear of falling into a mess like before. But someone really wants to say, it's really nothing.

Stone had disarmed the elemental creature's body, leaving only a head, but this time it wasn't inserted into the spring in front of the driver's seat. In the same position, there is a Hawaiian hula doll made by Lin in his free time during this time.

In order to save trouble, the materials made are all magic materials, and the appearance is changed directly with shaping. Even ordinary materials can be changed by magic, and if the power is interrupted, it may revert to its original state or decay at any time. And someone who is too lazy to take a piece of wood to carve is very extravagant and cheap. Anyway, the amount is not much, and it is enough to use the cheapest leftovers.

And to make this magic head doll, someone also hid some functions in it, as one of the secret functions of remote monitoring of the Sid, and of course did not tell anyone else. In the eyes of others, this is just a mascot made by someone at a strange insistence.

Watch as the doll swings violently, sometimes changes direction, and shakes gently under Totokani's jerky flight operation. Paired with a light and fluttering grass skirt, swaying like a water snake, someone's feeling is all back. Sid insisted that it was not perfect, that is, it lacked a beauty icon.

But when someone is satisfied, there are others who are not. For example, Stone, who was held in Kaya's arms, said regretfully: "It's a pity, I like that position quite a lot." ”

Someone sitting in the passenger seat really wanted to complain about Stone's feelings. But as soon as he turned around and looked at the black-haired and brown-skinned girl playing with the zombie head, someone felt that as soon as he opened his mouth, he would definitely be crooked. Kaya's hobby is so different from the ordinary. It is said that she has recently begun to ask the lich about undead magic.

I really want to tell her, eldest lady, even if you want to learn necromantic magic, you should first get the qualification of a formal magician. What is it to still hang in the position of an apprentice.

Take a few deep breaths to calm yourself down a bit. The rest of the journey is spent in this atmosphere without danger or danger.

The reason why it was able to go all the way safely was undoubtedly the Sid's super-sized speed, which disrupted the layout of many of the Gwana Empire.

Originally, after receiving the report of the Tenth Legion's Commander, Javid Poole, the Emperor was surrounded by voices calling for the deposition of the Tenth Legion's Commander. But because so many people were working in private, and all they were looking for power, no one tried to solve the problems that had occurred, and instead the emperor ignored many whispers, and Javed Poole's position was solidified.

In the military system of the empire, although the emperor has the right to consent to the position of general and the right to dismiss him, the candidates are provided by the Ministry of Military Affairs. Prevent the emperor from picking a fool who doesn't know soldiers to be the commander of an army because of his personal likes and dislikes. Not to mention how many soldiers such a person would kill, if he loses a key battle, the damage will be borne by the entire empire.

That is to say, as long as the emperor does not want to uproot anyone, the Ministry of Military Affairs will have no problem with the generals who have already been appointed, and of course others will not have a chance to take the throne. This system was designed to make the generals of the empire understand who they should be loyal to and who had the right to decide their own power.

But on the other hand, the emperor arbitrarily deposed the generals, but the Ministry of Military Affairs did not propose those candidates who only knew how to meet the situation and make the emperor satisfied, so that the position of army commander would be vacant, and nothing could be done. Even if the emperor appointed someone beyond the Ministry of Military Affairs, the legions would not obey such an order.

Such a system can be regarded as a unique check and balance at the top of the Gwana Empire. Of course, there are many ingenious ways to do this, and it's hard to describe them all.

In the face of the problems reported from the city of Abadan, the general direction of the Empire's top brass is unanimous, but there are differences in the details.

First of all, the common opinion of Javed Poole's purple wax seal is 'ridiculous'. If the door to the abyss had been officially opened, and the demons had invaded in a big way, and they had seen a letter asking for help with purple wax on their desks, everyone would have thought it would be more reasonable. Now that a mage, a lich, and a black dragon have surrendered, when has the empire become so weak.

Some radical ministers believed that the losses of a viscount family and a thousand-strong army were too heavy. The culprits must be caught and burned at the stake in order for their subjects to maintain their reverence for the Empire.

Some moderate-minded ministers advocated that it was the empire's consistent position to recruit capable people to join the empire and become part of this powerful country. There is no reason to let such talents out, and they should find a way to get them in their pockets. Of course, if the other side resolutely disagrees, it is impossible for them to join other countries, and it is inevitable that there will be some unavoidable actions at that time.

There are also neutral advocates that accept it, but it must be punished severely, and it is possible to leave one's life, but it must be atoned for. Failure to do so would not be enough to demonstrate the magnanimity and fairness of the Empire.

No matter what faction it is, people must be caught first. His Majesty the Emperor has no opinion on this, and even feels that wasting time on these few people is a very meaningless act. So he waved his hand and let the ministers deal with it themselves. As he grew old, he had to focus on discussing more important state affairs.

Because a regular brigade of 1,000 people was killed, the main department in charge was, of course, the military department of the empire. After all, an enemy who can compete with the army is not something that the forces in the hands of other departments can deal with. Love me

After the Minister of War left the presence of the Emperor, he went directly to the Military Drawing Room. There are sand table maps of the entire empire's territory and surrounding countries, as well as a group of nimble young aristocratic officers.

From hundreds of years ago, it expanded from a room dedicated to maps to the most important place for planning the movement of the Empire's military forces. Countless invasions and counterattacks, war plans are all done in this room.

Even when the empire is at its weakest, the war geniuses in this room can mobilize their forces to form an advantage over the outnumbered in a local area. Accumulate small victories that eventually allow the Empire to defeat one nation after another, sweeping it into the dust of history.

If Lin knew about the situation in this room, he would probably have a sense of immediacy from the staff. But someone doesn't know. At the same time, he was also placed on the sand table here without knowing it, and became the target of young people's deduction.

Considering that the opponent has two magicians as the main force, and a black dragon with strong magic defense and physical defense, the young officers in the military map room suggested that the strongest First Legion First Magic Guide Brigade be mobilized. And spend a lot of resources, use the legion-level teleportation magic array, and pay the highest attention to the opponent.

At the same time, it was also suggested that the Imperial Military Intelligence Division, which had private authority on the forum, should be used to issue orders for security and encirclement to the commanders of the corps and garrisons in various places.

However, the thought of a certain magician in the report of the young officers amused the Minister of War. The other party probably didn't know that the forum he created had become the best weapon for transmitting information and orders against him.

As the No. 1 Wizard Brigade of the Imperial Sharp Knife, it is a super luxurious lineup of all the great magicians. Even if it is the Wizards' Association, there are not many chapters that have the means to pull out such troops, let alone order and obey orders like an army. And being able to use such an army is the most basic confidence of the empire.

It is precisely because of such a brigade that can move quickly that the empire can always maintain a state of peace, and the nobles are quite restrained among themselves. There is no way, the time it takes to dispatch the First Wizard Brigade to solve various problems is not more than a day. On the contrary, it was the time when the brigade returned to the capital when the matter was resolved.

Teleportation magic arrays are scattered throughout the important cities of the Gwana Empire. Wealthy people can use teleportation magic circles to travel back and forth to the most marginal territories on the east and west sides of the empire in a day, and then return to the capital. However, this can only be transmitted on a small scale, and there are strict controls on the carrying of materials.

To achieve legion-level teleportation, not only does it consume considerable magical power, but it is also fundamentally different from the setting of the general teleportation magic array. In this way, it is possible to transport more than 1,000 people and the materials they need at the same time. Basically, only the Imperial Capital has this ability.

This is also the reason why the First Wizard Brigade can quickly put down rebellions everywhere. Relying on the convenience of teleporting magic, they can be said to take care of the empire as their own backyard. But after the event, if you want to return to the capital, you will not have the treatment when you set off. Basically, you have to rely on other methods to get back.

Because of this, which city to send troops to has become an important key to determining victory or defeat.

Predict the whereabouts of the other party, and let two mages and a black dragon collide head-on with the Empire's proud mage brigade

。 This is what this group of young officers in the military drawing room is racking their brains to plan.

After everyone's discussion, the group of young officers unanimously agreed that sending the Wizard Brigade to Helis City was the best choice.

And for good reason. As a magician from another city, the most likely destination is the holy city of Estari in the wizarding world. If you want to take an airboat from the city of Abadan, it can be said that the most classic route is to go along the cities along the Abercia Mountains.

And because it is within the territory of the empire, there are many large cities where airships can be moored, so most people choose to moor in the city every day and spend the night. After all, the comfort on the airship is also a gap between heaven and earth compared to the most ordinary hotels. Then after leaving the city of Abadan, the city of Haylis is the next scheduled location.

Even if the speculation is inaccurate, the whereabouts of the other party should be in the city near Helis City.

At that time, in this airship hub city, it will be easy to temporarily recruit airships to carry the magic guide team to the target location.

Therefore, after the Minister of War signed the consent order, the Gwana Empire, the First Legion and the First Magic Brigade were dispatched!
