Style: Fantasy Author: KonomaruoWords: 3252Update Time: 24/01/12 14:21:10
The relatives of the original president, Gray Otto, and the Koos family must die.

This is the tone recognized by everyone.

Personal hatred caused by greed eventually evolved into the threat of abyssal invasion. If the former tower owner hadn't notified the association in advance, so many reinforcements would have come...

All right. Even if the former tower owner didn't say anything, it seems that the result would not change if this magic tower alone was used to resist the demon army.

In any case, the former president of the Cadiz District Chapter and the Koos family behaved so badly that there is no reason for forgiveness. It is also a common practice in this world to have their related people completely disappear from the world of Lost World. .

Don't talk about a long-standing family, there will be considerable connections to help. Before summoning demons and opening the gate to the abyss, which is such a bad act against humanity, all connections are a joke unless they are accomplices.

No one will stand up for them. Because everyone is afraid that one day it will be their turn to be blocked by the devil. There is only one Tower of the Great Sage, instead of being everywhere.

Of course, what would make everyone agree with such a treatment is not entirely because the crime of summoning demons is unbearable. Gray Otto's relatives and members of the Koos family were all dead, and what was left had to be disposed of or taken over by someone. This is the tacit purpose of most people.

Besides, even if the Magicians Association doesn't deal with it, someone will still do it, and that is the church, the spokesperson of various gods in the world. These people have zero tolerance for demons, and killing them on sight is a trivial matter. Just hearing about it may make you travel thousands of miles just to exorcise or eliminate demons.

If a person related to a magician commits such a crime, the church will not react in any way, but they will wait until the Magician Association has its own resolution before they take further actions. But this wait is not indefinite. If the association moves too slowly, don’t blame the church for moving too quickly.

At that time, the things left by those sinners and their families will naturally belong to the church. Don’t expect that what you swallow will be presented to the noble Master with respectful hands by those in the church.

However, Gray Otto's relatives and the Koos family are considered trivial matters. The troublesome thing is how the Cadiz District Branch will deal with them.

As the branch president, Gray Otto is bound to have a considerable number of branch executives related to him. What to do with these people is one question, how they will react is another.

If there is no pressure and these people are allowed to accept Gray Otto's inheritance, then he will be doing his best without losing any benefit. Apart from other things, not only was he worried about being blocked by the devil, he also spent countless money and food to recruit men and horses to prepare for a battle with the devil. If these mental losses are not compensated, it is almost like a double injury.

But what really makes these cunning old men consider is another thing, which is the possibility of annexing the Cadiz District branch.

There is no doubt that there will be a power vacuum in the Cadiz Division. Because of the death of a president and the coalition of D people (500 people) summoned in the first round, a considerable number of leading officers at all levels must be composed of branch cadres. After losing most of the managers, no matter who the successor is, it will not be possible in a short time.

At this time, it gives others an opportunity to take advantage of. Although there is no competition between associations, no one would dislike their own territory being too large and their power being too high.

Besides, the reason why the various districts of the association were divided in this way in the past was to consider the efficiency of information circulation and the deployment efficiency of supporters and supervisors. The territory is too big, and if news and reinforcements arrive too slowly, the original intention of magicians to help each other through the association will be lost.

But today, the existence of forums reduces the time factor in the cost of information exchange. Although there is still a shortcoming that support may not be available in time, there is room for maneuver.

The three presidents discussed that it was impossible to completely carve up the Cadiz District. Because there is no precedent, it is unclear what kind of resistance it will cause. It would be a pity if a good game of chess was ruined because the appearance was too ugly.

The most likely way is to cultivate a spokesperson, and then take advantage of the current gap to deploy some people to remotely control the Cadiz District branch. And all information transmission, of course, relies on the convenience of the forum.

Maybe we can't have 100% control over what the people being supported will do after being separated from each other, but at least they won't know anything about it. If we prepare some back-ups, we can't hold the Cadiz District Branch firmly in our hands, but we can at least control it by 70% to 80%.

However, when there are two other distinctions in this matter, it is difficult to monopolize, and there is no need to monopolize. Only with the combined efforts of the three branches can we be more likely to suppress the noise from the Cadiz branch. If Xijia District wants to monopolize it, the other two branches will be holding back, and everything that can be done will become impossible. So Chengguo? Eton would rather rope in two younger brothers to share some of the benefits.

A consensus on the general direction was reached, and the remaining details were not discussed by the three presidents. Naturally, there will be some shrewd subordinates who will discuss various methods of attack, the manpower to be deployed, and even some disputes and compromises among themselves.

After roughly handling the internal affairs of the Magicians Association, of course we have to solve the problems from the outside.

When the major kingdoms and nobles led their armies and fled here as if fleeing, the Kingdom of Frank chose to stay. This is not because the Queen has lived here for a period of time, so she has feelings, etc., it is purely because of the geographical location of the Tower of the Great Sage.

Let’s not talk about the X ten days (10 kilometers) inherent territory legally owned by the Magic Tower. The location of the Tower of the Great Sage is located in the territory of the Kingdom of Frank, although it can only be regarded as a remote area and border area. The prosperity of the neighboring Viscounty Lorenz today is absolutely inseparable from the Tower of the Great Sage.

But similarly, when the disadvantages outweigh the benefits, no matter how good the neighbor is, people will think twice. Today's Tower of the Great Sage is facing this problem.

The power is there, the attack distance is too outstanding, and the performance is too dazzling. As a neighbor of this tower, I have to worry about the mood of the tower owner at all times, whether he will be unhappy and use a photo bomb to clean the ground, directly washing a kingdom into white ground without the sequelae of radiation pollution. How many people can tolerate such neighbors?

So Queen Yulia III came, and while the president of the Xijia District Chapter was still there, she personally entered the magic tower to discuss related matters.

Because if only the tower owner is left, this person who will live here forever will be as tough as he wants to be. Whether there is room for negotiation depends entirely on the person's mood.

But while several presidents are still there, let’s not forget that the new tower master is a student of Chengguo Eton. The three presidents will eventually return to their own territory, which means they will inevitably leave the protection of this tower. If you fall out today, and at that time, the queen holding a flail visits you during the journey, how much will it cost to have a chance to talk.

As for getting rid of the queen here...

The idea is beautiful, but not practical.

From all aspects, it can be known that this queen has not lost the favor of the 'god' behind her. Being protected by an elder of that level and insisting on accepting the Queen's words, he could only hide in the Tower of the Great Sage and never take a step out.

The warriors favored by the gods are always the most troublesome.

Especially for the gods of the lost land, in order to compete for faith, protecting their shortcomings is almost a must-have skill for every god. As long as the church members do not betray or violate the core teachings, it is not unheard of for a saint to come to earth and help the church members take revenge.

However, the magicians were still embarrassed by the Queen's request.

How can we make our neighbors feel at ease?

Generally speaking, magic towers will face this kind of problem, most of which are built in the city.

As the protector of a country or a noble, the magic tower also serves as a part of the city's defense system. Each tower owner needs to be recognized by the Magician Association, as well as the city lord of the city, either a noble or the king. Only with your consent can you enter the magic tower in this special location.

After all, if a magician with a grudge against the city lord came and stationed himself in the tower, he could turn the city into a dead city in minutes. Therefore, if you want to become the tower owner of a tower in the city, you must have a certain relationship with the city owner, otherwise you will not be accepted. Therefore, sometimes the city lord or lord will have the right to make suggestions to this kind of tower owner.

In the current situation, the Tower of the Great Sage is not built in a certain city, so it is difficult to apply the existing principles.

Secondly, given the current status and power of the Great Sage's Tower, it is absolutely impossible for Chenguo Eaton to hand this magic tower into the hands of others and can only be firmly controlled by his own cronies.

Under such circumstances, it is almost impossible to find a candidate that both parties are satisfied with.

Just before the conversation was about to collapse, Queen Yulia III gave in. It is unrealistic to expect that the Tower of the Great Sage will abolish its many powerful functions. Not to mention that the current tower owner and his friends have no ability to modify the various settings of this tower.

Bring back the former tower owner? Yulia agreed to such a plan. After all, she was very familiar with Guybrash Tripwood's personality, but President Chengguo Eaton refused. Not to mention the selfishness of wanting to control the tower, for the Magicians Association, changing orders every day would undermine its authority.

In the end, the Queen obtained the condition that the Tower of the Great Sage would not open the Arcane Eye except when necessary. Because some beyond visual range attacks start from the big eyeball that appears on the top of the tower.

Of course, when it is considered necessary and when it is not necessary, it depends on the explanation of the tower owner. In this negotiation, Magic Tower has almost all the control. No matter what others say, it sounds like begging.

However, for Chuck Weiss, Yulia III's requirements also vaguely fit his own needs. Because there are too many uncontrollable factors in this magic tower. Before you have a thorough grasp of it, if you let this magic tower operate on its own, maybe one day it will come back to bite the tower owner.

He even had the urge to put the elimination magic stone that the previous tower owner had given him before he left, and put it on the console in the core room, and finish it off with one blow. But he finally gave up. Maybe studying this tower in his lifetime would be an interesting goal.
