Chapter 156 Unable to Cope

The actions of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce guards in the small town of Laruel spread to countless countries and regions on the Sainz continent through the word of mouth of countless mercenaries and caravans.

For this news, the first reaction of most people is that Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is crazy!

What is the small town of Lalore? That's the territory of the Candela Empire!

By God! The Candela Empire is one of the two most powerful empires on this continent. Strictly speaking, even the Maro Empire is slightly inferior to the Candela Empire in terms of overall strength. When facing other countries, they have always been superior. They have always been the only ones who go to other countries to stir up troubles. When will it be the turn of others to go to the territory of the Candela Empire?

What's more, this time it is only a mere chamber of commerce that is tossing around on the territory of the Candela Empire!

Even if this Chamber of Commerce is the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce that has recently attracted the attention of the entire continent and almost all countries, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce sent its own guards to launch attacks in the territory of the Candela Empire like this, and it is still not officially recognized by the Candela Empire. Acting without authorization, that is simply not paying attention to the Candela Empire!

For the Candela Empire, which has existed for nearly a thousand years on this continent and has always been one of the most powerful countries, this is undoubtedly a shame, how could it be endured.

Of course, in addition to paying attention to the follow-up reaction of the Candela Empire to this matter, most people are actually more concerned about the specific circumstances of this matter.

According to rumors, the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce launched this operation to wipe out a group of bandits who had robbed the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's caravan before.

This is understandable. But according to the content revealed in the rumors. In order to exterminate these bandits, the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. To actually launch an extremely terrifying attack, and even forcibly cut off a layer of the Sunset Mountain Range, this is really terrifying.

Although the powerful power of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's military magic machinery has long been rumored, but in the previous battles that demonstrated the power of the military magic machinery, there has never been a single one that has been so frenzied.

If the Northern Army of the Lampari Kingdom had such a terrifying military magic machine, then the Sark Kingdom would never have any possibility of fighting against the Lampari Kingdom. If the war started, the Lampari Kingdom would directly push them all away. Is it flat?

Many people have a skeptical attitude towards this rumor, because they don't believe that the military magic machinery of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is really so terrible.

But among these people. But it does not include those big figures who know the inside story at the top of the Candela Empire.

His Majesty, the most honorable emperor of the Candela Empire, had a detailed incident report in front of him at this time, which described the details of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's actions in a clear and clear manner, without any omissions, including the attack on the Sunset Mountain Range. The resulting terrain changes were described in detail, and the terrifying power of the magic artillery used by the guards of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce at that time was fully displayed in front of His Majesty Emperor Alfonso Candela.

"I have a question." His Majesty Emperor Kendela withdrew his gaze from the observation report, raised his head and asked the group of people in front of him. "Where did the magic airships of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce fly to the town of Laruel?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

After this incident, everyone's attention was focused on the frighteningly powerful power of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's military magic machinery, but the magic airship was ignored.

Now, after being reminded by His Majesty the Emperor, everyone immediately realized that this is indeed a very important issue.

The small town of Laruel is located at the junction of the Tagna Province and the Northeast Province. It can be regarded as the very center of the empire, and it is more than a thousand kilometers away from the nearest empire border. The borders of several countries in the southwest of the empire and the mainland are all more than 2,000 kilometers away.

And if you come from the Principality of Standing, where the main base of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is located, it will be close to 3,000 kilometers away.

Of course, the action of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce escort team could not be organized and launched within the empire, but should be transported from other places outside the country through magic airships.

There is no doubt about this, but... Where did these magic airships fly into the empire, and how did they fly all the way to the small town of Laruel, and they were not discovered until they were about to land?

Seeing the confused look on everyone's faces, His Majesty Kendela snorted coldly: "You don't know? Does this mean that if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is willing, it can even directly use the magic airship to fly to my palace, and then Launch an attack on the palace at will?"

Everyone was stunned, and a trace of cold sweat involuntarily oozes from their faces.

Although the situation His Majesty said is extremely difficult to happen, if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is really so bold, it is really an extremely terrible thing.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to worry about this." Mavi Wiscondin, the president of the Kandela Empire Magician Association and the head of the Imperial Magic Court, said seriously: "The Imperial Palace has accumulated countless The comprehensive protective circle built over a hundred years can withstand all possible attacks. Even if the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce dared to send a magic airship to attack the palace, it would not be able to cause any threat."

"Heh... a protective circle?" His Majesty Emperor Kendela let out a chuckle. "Very well, the palace is indeed protected by a protective circle, but what about other than the palace? Can you guarantee that every inch of land in the empire is protected by a protective circle?"

"This..." The Wiscondinian great magician shook his head with a bitter face. "Your Majesty, this is impossible..."

"So, in fact, we don't have any effective defense method at all against the new flying chamber's attack mode of using magic airships to invade from the air?" His Majesty Emperor Candela said with a cold face.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, their faces becoming ugly.

Your Majesty is right, because the sky has always been the domain of magicians, so it is almost impossible for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to use the magic airship to launch an attack.

"We can mobilize magicians to intercept directly in the sky." A minister suggested.

"But how many magicians can we mobilize?" His Majesty Emperor Kendela asked back.

"This..." The minister was startled, speechless.

Although the Candela Empire is the country with the most magicians on this continent, according to statistics. It was only in the early fifty thousand.

And among them. A magician who can fly into the sky and fight. Not even five thousand.

Want to protect the huge empire territory with five thousand magicians? This is simply a fantasy.

What's more, among the 5,000 magicians, there may not even be 3,000 magicians who really obey the orders of the empire and are willing to join the war...

There is no way, the magician is a rare profession on the continent of Sainz, and the high-level magician is even rarer. Even if the Candela Empire is the most powerful country on the mainland, the power of magicians is also the undisputed number one. In this regard, it is still impossible to have How well off.

After wanting to understand these. Everyone in the room fell into silence.

They were well aware of the danger inherent in the question raised by His Majesty the Emperor, but they could not think of any solution at all.

"Your Majesty, I think..." After a while, a minister hesitated to speak. "I think the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce should not be so courageous, dare to declare war on the empire?"

Others turned their heads to look at the minister, their eyes full of strangeness.

If the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was not so bold, how could they send an escort to do such a thing this time?

Facts have proved that this Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, or Xu Yi, the chairman of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, is simply a lunatic, and there is nothing he dare not do.

not to mention. Does the majestic Candela Empire still have to pray for the kindness of others?

"Your Majesty, your concerns are very reasonable, and I think we must take them seriously." The Supreme Commander of the Candela Imperial Army, Imperial Marshal Campbell Sudirman said in a deep voice: "We must not let this hidden danger exist. I suggest strengthening the border. With the reconnaissance and inspection of the sky in all places in the territory, it is absolutely impossible to allow the magic airships of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to come and go freely like this time!"

"That's a good point, but it's meaningless." A mocking smile flashed across the face of His Majesty Emperor Kendela. "How do you plan to strengthen the reconnaissance and inspection of the sky? It is impossible for ordinary soldiers to find magic airships flying at an altitude of hundreds of meters or even thousands of meters, and magicians... can you find so many magicians?"

Marshal Sudirman was speechless.

Now back to the original question.

In front of the magic airship of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the Candela Empire could not come up with an equivalent solution at all.

The sky, a field that is completely out of reach for ordinary people, is now allowed to fly freely with the magic airship of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but no one else has the same method.

Although magicians can also soar in the sky, magic airships can be mass-produced, but magicians, especially advanced magicians, cannot be mass-produced at all.

Is...is there really no way to solve this problem?

Everyone's face was heavy, because they couldn't think of any solution for a while.

After a long time, a long sigh resounded faintly.

"Your Majesty, I think... we should let go of those unnecessary reservations and open our arms to cooperate with Xinfei Chamber of Commerce."

The one who spoke was Kruze Candela, the elder of the ministers in the room, the most prestigious and most trusted by His Majesty the Chairman of the Elder Council of the Candela Empire, who was also the Prince of the Empire.

He is the uncle of His Majesty the Emperor, and since he assisted His Majesty to take the throne, he has rarely expressed any opinions on the internal affairs of the empire, but this time, he spoke out unexpectedly.

Seeing the questioning eyes cast by everyone including His Majesty Candela, Prince Candela spread his hands with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, it is obvious that we are not capable of dealing with the amazing magic machines of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. And obviously we are also Without the ability to eliminate this Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the only option left for us is to cooperate."

Everyone around frowned slightly.

Although what Prince Candela said was true, it sounded very uncomfortable.

As one of the two largest empires in the mainland, the Candela Empire still intends to bow down to a mere chamber of commerce?

"As I said before, let go of those unnecessary reservedness and arrogance. The reason why the empire has been able to stand on the mainland for so many years is not by these meaningless things, but by the pursuit of real profits. Since the problems brought about by the new flying chamber of commerce cannot be solved , then of course we have to actively cooperate with them. Take this magic airship as an example. As long as we have enough magic airships in the future through cooperation, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will not be a concern. But if the choice is wrong now, let’s not mention the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce , I am afraid that we will quickly be left far behind by our greatest enemy - the Maro Empire. At that time, the real crisis of the empire will be."

Hearing the "Maro Empire", everyone's expression froze.

Unlike the Candela Empire, the cooperation between the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Maro Empire is said to have been very smooth.

And according to intelligence, the Maro Empire also ordered a batch of magic airships from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

If the Maro Empire also has enough magical airships in the future, coupled with a large number of military magic machines, then once the Maro Empire launches a war with the Candela Empire, I am afraid that the Candela Empire will be more than just a crisis.

After the wordless silence lasted for a while, His Majesty Emperor Candela let out a soft sigh, then paused, and said in a loud voice: "Issuing an announcement to give high praise to the great success of the bandit suppression operation launched by the Tagna Province and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Praise, this is a manifestation of the in-depth cooperation between the imperial government and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the field of military magic machinery, and it represents a further consensus reached by the two parties..."
