Section 173 Controversy and Decision (II)
Kraussa's spirit withdrew from the connecting ball, feeling extremely tired.
Tiredness comes not only from his many fierce battles in the elven chess, but also from the results.
After obtaining permission from the National Academy of Magicians in Asturias, he imported the magic chess level given to him by Solomon into the academy's magic chess and then tackled it.
The result was total defeat, and no matter what race he chose, he could not support it on the eternal battlefield to break away.
The process was like being stuck in a grinding plate, and he could only watch it be crushed, no matter how hard he racked his brains to get the result.
Manfred, Caranda, and Benedict have also confirmed Solomon's words that the Ligurian plane is heading for destruction.
At one point, the allied forces of the various nations recaptured Olbia and attacked it all the way to the Holy Mountain of the Cult of Light, and the materialization of Olbia slowly faded, giving people hope.
However, the invasion of purgatory is also destroying the laws of the plane, leading to the weakening of the will and laws of the Ligurian plane.
The chain result of the guide is that when the coalition forces attacked before the Holy Mountain, due to the weakening of the laws of the plane, higher celestial beings began to appear in the Heavenly Kingdom, angels, otherworldly gods, and even more powerful blazing heavenly gods.
The alliance of the nations stopped before the Holy Mountain, and just when they longed for the Fenrir Kingdom to join, they received terrible news, there was a change in the north, and the Fenrir Kingdom was the first to fall.
The three legendary powerhouses of the Duke's family served as observers and witnessed first-hand how Tornio, the capital of Fenrir, destroyed Miè at the hands of the demon army.
Despite their last stubborn resistance, it was to no avail, and Queen Caterina was martyred.
After the fall of King Fenrir. The location of the royal city of Tornio is replaced by a huge nascent volcano. Smoke and dark clouds of fiery red turned the northern sky like graffiti.
And the Fenrir refugees, who were lucky enough to escape to other countries, quickly spread the news of the demonic invasion to all parts of the continent. The Cult of Light was no longer in the midst of the attack, and the Holy Lana Empire, the second target after the fall of the Fenrir Kingdom, took the lead in retreating back to their own territory to defend against demons.
The news brought back by the three legendary powerhouses makes it credible that the Ligurian plane cannot stop the invasion from the two planes.
After the disbandment of the coalition forces, they lost even the most favorable opportunity to unilaterally prevent one of them.
Kraussa was reluctant even if he couldn't help it. It can only be deduced that Solomon can also deduce that the purgatory plane and the celestial realm will collide in Liguria and then push it into the eternal battlefield.
The eternal battlefield, Kraussa did not experience, and he believed that Solomon did not experience it either.
He could not believe in the magic chess simulation of this eternal battlefield made by Solomon, but there were still records left by the High Elves.
Even if this qiē can be doubted, it is a fact that the ancient elven empire created by the High Elves was in decline after an eternal battlefield before being overthrown by the various races they enslaved.
In other words, Solomon expects the consequences that Asturias cannot afford now, which means that the Ligurian Pioneer Company must withdraw to the Kaos plane and close the teleportation channel.
But what about the Bourbons? Klausa's hands and feet were cold. He ran his hand over his forehead.
Solomon has persuaded the queen and used the power of the prime minister. Call for an emergency Congress. At the meeting he would have thrown out the fact that in such a situation, even the hardcore supporters of the three dukes would agree to immediately cease the exploitation of Liguria and make the fastest division to avoid being drawn into the eternal battlefield.
Kraussa could imagine the outcome, but he didn't know how to stop it.
There was a knock at the door, and it was time to go to Congress for a hearing.
This time, the Diet has been specially arranged, and the seats of the members are arranged in a notched circle, divided into several floors, and the central podium is surrounded in the middle.
The central lectern has also been renovated and connected to the National Academy of Magic in the same city, allowing for remote video transmission.
This was previously difficult to do, as continuous image transmission would consume a lot of mana, either with a legendary mage in the center to guide it, or it would consume high-energy magic crystals, and there would be enough magic circles to be laid, which would also require a constant supply of mana.
However, these obstacles were resolved and developed after the Industrial Revolution of Magic caused by Black Rock, creating the conditions for the transmission of images at any time.
What the councillors of Asturias are now seeing is the battle screen of the elven magic chess that was transmitted from the National Academy of Magic in real time, and after Klausa handed over the simulation level given by Solomon to the academy and imported it into the magic chess, the middle and low-level students who didn't know the inside story only thought that the magic chess department had created another level of practice for everyone to overcome.
In the past few days, not only Klausa is trying to break the level, almost all the students and teachers of the academy are crazy to try this simulation level that they don't know how to create, but without exception, all of them fail.
So much so that some students complained in the sea of spirits in the magic chess, thinking that the people in the magic chess club did not deliberately create such an impossible practice level to beat.
And those who know the inside story, such as the councilors who are here now, are not only looking at the transmitted images, but also have a document in their hands, which contains the High Elf records obtained from the Kingdom and the Academy of Magic, which is a record of the eternal battlefield.
Although the combination of the Kingdom and the Magic Academy's materials still does not fully unravel the mystery of the Eternal Battlefield, there are some things that can be affirmed, such as the Ligurian Plane will have a great chance of being pulled into the Eternal Battlefield, and the Asturian teleportation channel, if not closed, will most likely be implicated after Liguria becomes a part of the Eternal Battlefield.
In fact, among the people present, including Strauss and the legendary mages of the Academy of Magic, Durant and Fernandez, none of them knew Solomon better than the Eternal Battlefield, even if he had not experienced the real Eternal Battlefield.
But he has Paradise Lost in his hands, and Paradise Lost records a lot of information about Archer leading the High Elves to resist the Eternal Battlefield, and has a magic chess level simulated based on the Eternal Battlefield.
The magic chess level that Solomon threw to Klausa and the Academy of Magic was just a castrated version. Because he didn't want more people to know about Paradise Lost in front of everyone.
So he gave Krausa a castrated version of the mock level. The level cap inside. Only similar to what appeared in Liguria now.
But even so, none of the attempters failed, including Kraussa himself, and the simulation was very different from the actual one, which was only more difficult than the elven magic chess simulation.
Strauss and Durant, as well as Fernandez, also gave an account to the lawmakers, who used their own descriptions and judgments about the Eternal Battlefield as a reference for the lawmakers to make a final decision on the event.
Then, after a long and heated discussion for half a day, the vast majority of the legislators voted on the emergency motion proposed by the Cabinet. Only a few MPs abstained, but none voted against.
The Congress decided to require the Ligurian Pioneer Company to evacuate immediately, unconditionally, and as quickly as possible, and set a deadline for the return of merchants entering Liguria, after which the teleportation route would be closed mercilessly to avoid danger to Asturias.
After hearing this decision, the Duke of Medici and the Duke of Byron, who attended the meeting, couldn't help but smile bitterly, which means that they have spent a lot of effort before. The efforts of the Ligurian Pioneer Ltd. were all in vain.
However, their losses are certainly not the greatest, and the biggest losses are of course the Bourbon family. The Duke of Bourbon's face was as pale as paper, as if he had aged ten years in an instant, and Kraussa kept his head down.
This incident may even shake Krausa's position as the first heir to the family, which has been firmly established, and the loss of the Bourbon family in this incident will cause accusations and interrogation of Krausa within the family.
Solomon watched coldly, and it was not surprising that he received this result.
Asturias was at odds with that, but it wasn't without its benefits, especially when it came to Solomon's plans.
First of all, although this is a loss for Asturias as as a whole, it was the three dukes who had been overinvested before, especially the Bourbons, and the kingdom had not actually invested much.
After joining forces with the dukes to overthrow Queen Margaret and enter a constitutional monarchy, Solomon inevitably faced the power of the dukes in the parliament, and although both sides were extremely restrained, they inevitably took different positions on many things.
The Ligurian incident caused Solomon's influence in the parliament to expand, but the influence of the ducal family declined again, and even those who had always supported them had to stand on the side proposed by Solomon on this matter.
The second motion that Congress discussed next was on whether or not to accept refugees from Liguria.
The Ligurian Pioneer Company recalls the caravan and takes back its troops, and waits until the teleportation is closed at the last moment, which will take a little time, and it is difficult to ensure that the natives will not notice anything unusual during this time.
Once some of the indigenous people realized that Liguria was on the way to ruin, and that it was difficult to reverse it, it might have occurred to some people that there was a possible way out of life for the aliens.
But the problem is that Asturias has a hard time accepting a large number of refugees, which is no better than the Black Rock Plane and the Fadel Plane.
It would certainly be a catastrophe for these Ligurian refugees, who once had a country and their own culture, to flood in large numbers in a short period of time, and even if they were to enslave them, it would have to be done in batches, not at such a time and under circumstances as the present, which would only endanger the original subject of Asturias.
Congress has a unified view of this, but there are also differences.
There was a consensus that a large number of refugees should never be accepted into Asturias.
The disagreement was that a small number of parliamentarians felt that useful people willing to serve Asturian could be accepted, and that some of the Ligurian elite could be absorbed.
To this end, these councillors proposed to accept restricted immigrants to these people if the other party was willing to accept the magical contract.
Originally, according to Solomon's idea, there was no need for such an idea, because it was difficult to put it into practice.
The difficulty is that the time is too short, and the first thing Asturias needs to do is to recall the caravan and minimize its own losses, so it is impossible to take the initiative to sue the Ligurian countries, you are already on the way to ruin.
If the other party does not believe it, it will only attract the attacks of the countries to the Bourbon fortress, in order to enter the alien plane for refuge.
The most realistic way to do this is to use the indigenous nations to hold back the Purgatory and the Celestial Realm, and then revoke the caravans and armies before decisively closing the teleportation route.
Therefore, if you want to identify the effects of the aboriginal elite, it is very troublesome and risky in such a short period of time.
The elite of the aborigines realized that they could take refuge in the heterogeneous plane through guò, how to ensure that they would not sue more people, even if there was a magical contract, but who could guarantee that there were no patriots who were not afraid of death, and would rather die by themselves, but also tell this way of life.
As long as one person leaks out, there will be less time left for the Ligurian Company to close the teleportation channel early.
Therefore, according to Solomon's mind, there is no need for this, and he has personally traveled to the continent, and among the Ligurian elites he has come into contact with, he has a feeling that although the civilization of this plane is backward, there are indeed some brave people.
Such a person would not abandon his country and his people, nor would he bow his knee to Asturia even though he knew that Liguria would ruin it.
However, in order to quickly get Congress to reach a resolution, Solomon did not need to insist on his cautious approach, but readily signaled that the pro-parliamentarians should stop squabbling in this regard, and agreed to conditionally accept the indigenous elite who voluntarily participated.
In addition, Solomon's only regret is that in this catastrophe, the god-making he made may only fail. (To be continued......)
