Chapter 445: Monroe's Wizard Collapse Theory! (2-in-1)

Under Del's constant telling, the wizards present became more and more yearning for this magic train under construction.

Once the railroad was laid, the train would be able to reach any city in the kingdom within three days.

Fifty more trains like this will continue to be built to meet the requirements of transportation and passage within the kingdom.

"It's amazing!"

Lucas spoke with emotion, imagining huge serpentine trains speeding across the wilderness, wheels rolling and rumbling, transporting vast amounts of goods to every corner of the kingdom.

In just over an hour, he experienced too much shock.

An airship larger than a house, but capable of flying into the sky with dozens of people, and a fighter jet that is extremely fast enough to shoot beams, powerful enough to annihilate the crusaders with a single blow, turning an area more than ten kilometers in diameter into scorched earth magic......

And this magic train, which can send an entire army across the kingdom in a short period of time, spanning hundreds of kilometers, makes Lucas feel as if he is in a dream.

Except for Monroe and Evena, who had different thoughts, the rest of the wizards were equally excited.

In the past, they lived in hiding in the empire, and once the identity of the wizard was revealed, it would attract the pursuit of the church and all kinds of fearful and suspicious eyes, and many people began to doubt whether they were on the right path to learn magic and explore the truth of the world.

The church on high is like a mountain that weighs on everyone's head, so majestic that it is impossible to breathe!

Only now did they realize that there seemed to be nothing remarkable about the church, and that wizards could be so powerful!

Seeing everyone's shocked appearance, Del shook his head amusedly, this is only in the city of fire oil that he has just occupied, if he arrives in the royal capital, there are too many novelties, even he is often surprised......

"This is where you're going to live!"

Del led the group all the way to the academy in XC that was being renovated.

Originally, this place was a church school, which was used to supply the children of the nobility and train nuns, but now it has been renovated directly, although the function has not changed, it is still a place to teach, but it is no longer the Bible, but magic!

Although Lucas and the others were all wizards, after all, when they first arrived, Del did not directly lead them to the place where they were staying, but first conducted the wizard level test.

After entering the academy, Ivina found that they were not the first to arrive, and it was crowded with at least a thousand wizards, who seemed to have fled from the empire to the city of fire oil through various channels.

"Because this is a special time, there is still a small test ......" Del paused visibly at this point, and then had a stack of notes brought and distributed to everyone present.

"All you need to do is repeat it!"

Evena reached out and took the note, and when she saw the contents, her pupils shrank and her face showed a slightly strange look.

Monroe was even more dumbfounded, he didn't expect these wizards to come up with such a sinister and vicious idea.

"Is this a sign of distrust of us?" A good-looking witch pursed her lips and asked with a chuckle.

"No, this is Master Lynn's personal vendetta, so everyone who enters the city must be scolded." Del shrugged, he didn't dare carry the pot.

Only that magic star has the guts.

In fact, relying on this little trick, they have caught dozens of spies of the Holy See.

"The Goddess of the Moon [Ella] is a vicious old witch, and sooner or later she will pay for her evil deeds......" Lucas read the note without hesitation, and his tone was filled with righteous indignation.

Immediately afterward, more and more wizards spoke.

The content on each note is different, but it is undoubtedly a curse.

Many of the apprentices were hesitant at first, after all, they were also subjects of the empire before they became wizards, and they all had a visceral fear of the high moon goddess and the creator promoted by the church.

However, in such an atmosphere, they quickly overcame their fear of the God of the church, and some even found it unpleasant, and the more they scolded, the more ugly it became.

The anger in Monroe's heart almost broke through the threshold, but the moment Del's gaze swept over, all the anger turned into a piercing chill.

A cold sweat broke out on Monroe's forehead, and he looked at the vicious words on the note in his hand, and suddenly fell into a dilemma.

To scold or not to scold, that's the question......

……

In the evening, in the city of oil, in the wizarding academy, Ivina and Monroe, who had completed the level assessment, walked into the assigned academy station.

After closing the door, Monroe immediately checked the room, took out a crystal ball from his bosom, and was relieved to see that it did not light up, it seems that those wizards did not perform any strange magic in this room.

It was only then that Monroe's anger that had been building up for a day was vented.

"How dare these demonic minions, damned madmen, blaspheme the Great Lord!" Monroe let out a low roar, slammed his fist against the wall beside him, and after venting, he quickly closed his eyes again, made a gesture of prayer, and confessed his sins to the great Lord in his heart.

Ivina also prayed and repented silently in her heart, equally annoyed by the methods of these wizards.

Before officially joining the Divine Punishment Army, although Ivina occasionally went to the local church for routine prayer, she was not a devout disciple of the Moon Goddess, and she was not valued by her father, so she did not enter the school set up by the church like her brother Lot, and studied the Bible rigorously and systematically.

However, after two years of training in the north, I gradually felt the greatness of the Lord and the importance of the existence of the Holy See.

Evil gods, wizards, and all kinds of demons and beasts that crossed the border through the time and space gate all threatened the survival of the people of the empire, and even before the establishment of the Holy See, the entire continent was a scene of many kingdoms and evil gods raging.

Probably because the Lord had mercy on the world, God came down at the most critical moment of the situation!

The evil gods that ravaged the entire continent were killed one by one, and the existence of many kingdoms became a thing of the past, and an unprecedented empire was erected in the center of the continent, and all the people were shrouded in the glory of the Lord.

Because of this, after witnessing the riots caused by evil gods and wizards in the north, Evenna's faith gradually became stronger, and she became more and more convinced that wizards were the minions of evil demons, the embodiment of evil, and the objects that must be cleaned up.

Until this time I actually stepped into the city of firing oil, a city ruled by a wizard, everything she saw made Ivina confused again......

"What do you think of this wizard-run city, Monroe?" Ivina looked at Monroe, who was still praying, with a little confusion, and asked.

For this instructor of the Divine Punishment Army, the girl still has great respect, and this mission is also based on Monroe, and she only needs to follow orders.

After confessing his sins to the great Lord, Monroe opened his eyes, his mood had regained his composure, and he spoke with a solemn expression.

"These wizards are indeed making new weapons faster than I expected, especially the alchemical creation called the train, and it must not be allowed to build the railroad easily by those wizards......"

Otherwise, the speed at which the other party organizes the legion will be too terrifying, and in the event of war, it can also quickly dispatch materials from all over the country.

It is necessary to find a way to organize the believers in the kingdom to wreak havoc.

Monroe racked his brains to think about how to destroy the weapons of war of the wizards, but Ivina hesitated. "I mean, the city of oil doesn't seem to be what we expected......"

Without the bloody slaughter and brutal enslavement, the city of Oily was bustling with slogans recruiting workers - five silver coins for ordinary laborers, and if you were lucky enough to join the workshop, you could be paid seven to fifteen silver coins a month.

With such a high remuneration, even many apprentices and even official wizards are extremely excited.

You must know that the lords of the northern borders of the empire are usually only paid one or two silver coins after a month's hard work, and with the exploitation of tax officials and landlords, it is usually difficult to make ends meet.

What made Evena even more unbelievable was that the wizards were repairing the houses of the poor, and she couldn't believe that this was something that the minions of the evil gods could do unless she saw it with her own eyes.

"It's too simple, Evena, sometimes what you see with your own eyes may not be the truth!" Monroe naturally saw the girl's confusion and explained disdainfully.

"I have to say that the superficial work of these wizards is not bad, it is indeed very deceptive, but it is a pity that they don't understand the economy at all, and they lack management experience, if this continues, what awaits the entire kingdom is a great famine!"

Ivina paused, not quite understanding why Monroe suddenly said that.

"You can think about the fact that there are about 200,000 lords in the entire city of oil, and if half of them become laborers, producing all kinds of war weapons for those wizards, then it will cost thousands of imperial gold coins a month, and tens of thousands a year! And if this is just one city, if it spreads to the entire kingdom? How many coins do I need to send out? Monroe sneered.

He knew very well that the wizards were trying to corrupt the faith in the hearts of the people with large sums of money, and according to what he had said before, this method did play a certain role

After all, where did the wizards get so much money?!

At first, it may be able to survive by slaughtering local nobles, but it must not last.

"In fact, the more important thing is food!" Monroe continued with a solemn expression.

The use of these sorcerers to force a large number of poor people into the workshop will inevitably further reduce the production of food, and the greatly increased wages will cause the poor to buy more food, resulting in an increase in the consumption of this thing.

And food is never enough to eat, some people eat more, there will inevitably be people who eat less!

Therefore, according to Monroe's prediction, under the careless management of these wizards, the kingdom will collapse within a year, and then there will be a scene of famine spreading and starvation everywhere.

Wizards also shed their original disguises and reveal their evil side.

After producing enough weapons of war, the only role of these poor people is to be sacrificed!

Evena quickly understood Monroe's argument that sooner or later there would be problems with increasing consumption and reducing output.

The girl turned her head to look out the window, the evening sun had completely set, but the whole city did not stop, and where the eyes gathered, the workers were still in full swing building new houses, with tiredness and smiles on their faces, probably happy that they were about to move into their new homes.

However, according to Monroe's inference, such a prosperous scene may not last long.

Night had begun to fall, and the city was gradually shrouded in darkness, just as it would be in the future.

Suddenly, a bright morning star lit up in the city, and then the blinding light began to spread to every corner of the city, dispelling the darkness around it.

Only then did Ivina realize that it was not the stars that were shining, but the street lamps.

It turns out that those wizards are not lying, and the night in the City of Fire Oil can really be as bright as the day!

……

Hundreds of meters away, in a magic laboratory, Lynn kept waving the quill in his hand, writing page after page of calculations on the manuscript paper, and the ground was filled with all kinds of waste manuscripts, so that Del couldn't find a place to stay when he opened the door.

Del moved cautiously, not daring to break or trample on the paper, which was full of calculations.

He knew that Master Lynn had been in this laboratory for four whole days, and although no one knew what the magic star was doing, it must be very important magical research!

So except for the daily delivery of food and extremely important affairs, no one dares to disturb them.

Del didn't dare to interrupt the magic star's thoughts, and after entering the door, he just took the report and waited for the other party to finish without saying a word, but out of extremely strong curiosity, Del quietly glanced at the manuscript paper placed on the table, and he was dizzy when he looked at the complex equations on it.

After about ten minutes, Lynn wrote the last symbol on the paper, and then exhaled heavily, his whole body relaxed, and his magic conversion equation was finally completed!

This is also thanks to the fact that Einstein's derivation of the energy equation gave him a lot of inspiration, otherwise he would not have been able to sort it out in a few months without talking about it for four days on his own.

Is this what it feels like to stand on the shoulders of giants?

Don't be too cool!

All you need to do is collect enough nuclear fuel to start building the fusion reactor and prepare for the legendary promotion ceremony!

It's a pity that he has just been promoted to the Great Wizard of the Five Rings not long ago, and he doesn't meet the criteria to become a legend.

However, this is not without benefits, after all, this promotion ceremony is very dangerous, and he is not completely sure, just let others test the water first.
