" Killing him won't solve the problem," Fire said." From what I've heard, the way your Magic Tower exists is indeed in irreconcilable conflict with the power of the king. If you don't change the position of the Magic Tower in the country, even if you can kill all the Putra people, you will still be able to do it. "After we leave, no one in this generation will dare to rebel under your power. However, the next generation, in the next generation, people are forgetful. Our arrival will eventually become a legend and an illusion. At that time, the butcher's knife would be raised again.”
"I know that. I didn't expect that my intervention would bring about eternal peace. It was just that as someone from the Magic Tower, that place was my home. Even if Putra's actions were righteous, I had to stand on the side of the White Tower. I've done my best to bring peace to the Magic Tower for decades.”
" Why don't you ask the Magic Tower to give up part of their rights?" Firecloud asked." Can't they just give in now?"”
"The Magic Tower will not give in. It has been a rule for a long time that mages enjoy special privileges. This was also the fundamental reason why every family tried their best to send their most outstanding children to the Magic Tower to become magic apprentices. If the Magic Tower was allowed to compromise and damage the rights of the Magic Tower, the Putra Magic Tower would become the enemy of all mages in the world.”
" If that's the case," Huo Lian sneered," why would King Putra dare to strip the mages of their rights and even cut them open? Isn't he afraid of becoming the enemy of the entire world?"”
The silent Taiji spirit suddenly said,"" Putra can't stand the Magic Tower, and the other countries won't either.”
Firecast nodded." That's right. Besides, I can tell that King Putra is a powerful king. The privilege of destroying the Magic Tower will earn him a lot of wealth. I think he planned to start a full-scale war after destroying the Magic Tower.”
" It should be," Octopus Head said." The population of this country is about ten million. However, Mage Snowflake said that the total number of Putra's army has reached seventy thousand knights. Considering the knights 'slaves and servants, the number of soldiers should be no less than five hundred thousand. If one-third of the people were affiliated with the Magic Tower and did not pay taxes or serve in the military, then the military would account for nearly one-tenth of the population. If they did not rely on war to expand their territory and plunder resources, the country would not be able to withstand such a military structure.”
As civilizations differed, the ratio of military strength would also differ. In the era of a level-4 civilization, a planet with a population of 10 billion would only have a million soldiers at most. All kinds of technological equipment were money-hungry monsters. There were seventeen stars, hundreds of planets, and tens of thousands of satellites in the Ox and Crab Constellation. There were only nine planets with level-4 civilizations. After the giant planets were destroyed by the Zergs, there were only eight. In such a large space zone, the starship fleet only had less than 800 warships. Including the airborne assault troops, the total number of troops was less than a million. Each planet's army had around a million soldiers. Therefore, the last time the starship fleet mobilized 600,000 soldiers, they were all wiped out, causing the various planets to have an extremely bad reaction to the starship fleet.
However, the lower the level of civilization, the easier it was to raise soldiers. For a feudal farming civilization like Putra, the ratio of soldiers to population was ten to one, which was unimaginable in a high-level civilization. However, with so many soldiers, the national finances would definitely be under great pressure. It was reasonable that the King of Putra could not stand the Magic Tower.
" Go player," Fireforge suggested." If you make the Magic Tower retreat, their power will still be maintained, but the numbers must be limited." Trade tax exemption was abolished, and land tax exemption was allowed, but there must be a limit to the number of acres. The servants hired could be exempted from service, and there was also a limit to the number.”
" They won't agree to this," Chess Player said with some difficulty." Although the mages are only doing their research, their relatives have taken a lot of benefits in the name of mages. If you ask them to back down, they will fight to the death.”
Looking at the Go player, Huo Lian sighed.""If you didn't interfere, how would King Putra deal with these families that refused to back down?”
"Kill a group to intimidate, bribe and divide the rest. With his current prestige and military power, there shouldn't be any family in Putra that could resist him.”
"That's right," Huo Lian said with a smile."Therefore, the resistance of the clan is irrelevant. The main point is whether those mages can behave themselves, but I don't think that's a big problem. The mages who went to the Magic Paradise were either magic gods or magic gods. Chess player, if you announce the oracle as a god, I think most of the mages will obey.”
" That's true," Chess Player nodded after a moment of thought." But so many people in the Magic Tower have been killed, and so many benefits have been taken away. I don't think the mages can stand it." Even if I were to issue an oracle in the name of a magic god, this would not change. There are no gods who side with outsiders…"
The Undying Lion also said," I think so too. They will definitely not be convinced if we just take them away without compensating them."”
The gunner said,"There can be returns, you stupid brains."”
Huo Lian didn't expect him to have such an idea. In Huo Lian's opinion, shattering people's heads was what he was interested in. "Tell me."
"It's simple. Putra wants to fight and seize territory, right? The mages of the Magic Tower were obliged to participate in the war, and they were given the right to loot and slaves. There was nothing more profitable than war. Since every country had a Magic Tower, he might as well let Putra announce that all the assets of the Magic Tower in the occupied territory would belong to Putra's Magic Tower. That would be enough.”
" You mean to let the Putra Magic Tower join in the war against the other Magic Towers?" the Undead Lion asked.”
Chess Player thought for a moment and said in surprise," That should be possible…Although the Association of Mages is an organization in name, each Magic Tower is relatively independent. Whether it's resources or the magic they study, they don't communicate with each other. There are many battles between mages for experimental resources. It was just that there had never been such a large-scale destruction of a country before. If the war went too far, the Association of Mages would also interfere. However, the headquarters of the Association of Mages was busy fighting and had no power to interfere. If they could take the opportunity to expand their territory and destroy the other Magic Towers, the benefits they would gain would be enough to make up for the loss of the White Tower. However, this could not offset the attack on the white tower. The rules of this world were blood revenge, blood for blood. As long as Putra the Seventh was alive, Snowflake and the rest would not stop.”
" In other words, no matter what we want to talk about, King Putra must die. Otherwise, there will be no peace talks." Huo Lian sighed.”
"Yes." The Go player nodded with certainty. Chief, Putra the Seventh is my friend. If I wasn't certain that he wouldn't die, there would be no peace between the Putra Kingdom and the White Tower, and I wouldn't have wanted him dead. Don't look at me like this, I don't feel good killing my friends.”
"I'll go and talk to King Putra," said Fire Smelting as he stood up.”
After Fireforge walked out, the gunner said unhappily,""The boss is too involved…Why are we so involved in this kind of primitive civilization's sh * t? We'll be leaving soon. God knows when he would come again! The time on this planet is several times faster than in the universe. Maybe by the time we have time to come again, this place will already be a hundred years later. This country will be in ruins, and we will all become the legendary evil gods.”
The slut said," The head is tempted. There's nothing we can do about it. A man who has just reached adulthood just can't stand the tragic experience of a beautiful little girl. His lower body works faster than his brain.”
Octopus Head was puzzled,"You mean Head really fell in love with her?"”
"I don't really love her. I just have a good impression of her, so I unconsciously stood in her shoes. However, love was something that people made up. It was just a hormonal impulse. A young man like the head would fall in love with a beautiful woman. To put it nicely, he was passionate. To put it bluntly, he was a horny, lecherous dog.”
" Don't you call yourself a super beauty?" the gunner mocked." But I don't like you at all. I don't feel horny when I'm with you." Are you really the boy in heat you mentioned, or are you not a beauty at all?”
"F * ck you, you bastard! Are you trying to fight?"”
Huo Lian came to the bedroom of the King of Putra. The King of Putra was lying on the bed with a pale face. Beside him was the crying Queen and the Princess who had stopped crying.
Seeing Huo Lian walk in, the queen knelt down in panic.""Your Majesty, please forgive my husband's foolish actions.”As for the golden-haired princess, she bit her lips and bent her body slightly. She looked at the fire refinement nervously like a frightened kitten.
"You guys go out. I have something to say to him.”Although she was unwilling, the little princess was still dragged out of the bedroom by the queen. To them, Huo Lian was the leader of the gods, and the will of the Ruler of Gods could not be disobeyed.
Huo Lian pulled a chair and sat down.”
"I won't die for the time being." King Putra smiled bitterly.”
Huo Lian sized him up for a moment and said,""You are also an outstanding king, but there are some things that cannot be undone, even if you are a king, even if your starting point is for the country.”
"A blood feud can only end with bloodshed. The avenger will not be punished by the law.”King Putra coughed and continued,""This is a law that has been passed down in the world for thousands of years. Your Majesty the Godly King, your kindness is very touching, but only one of us will survive. Since I couldn't destroy the magic tower, I had to die.”
"Originally, the Magic Tower wanted to kill your race and completely exterminate you, then replace you with a new royal family. " But from what I see, this won't solve the problem. The source of the conflict is still there. Even if we suppress it for a while, it will only bury an even greater disaster. Besides, this Chess Player kid, he may appear cold and heartless on the surface, but I can feel that killing you is very painful for him. That kid is my subordinate. As the leader, I have to think about him. King Putra, I hope you can make peace with the Magic Tower.”
