Chapter 74: Deadlocked "Application"
Time flies by.
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, the discussion among the nobles of the Kaya Empire on the matter of "the exchange group students want to change their nationality" unexpectedly fell into a stalemate.
Some of the great nobles of the Munn Empire could not help but send people with gifts to visit the nobles in the Kaya Empire one by one, asking them to help.
But so far, little success has been achieved.
If you want to talk about the reason:
This matter involves their own interests, which cannot be moved by a little gift.
Moreover, the forces within the Kaya Empire have not yet fully determined a complete and suitable "plan".
No one can guarantee what the subsequent “plan” will be like.
——So now is actually not the time for the Moon Empire to come in and build relationships.
“Do you want to agree to the exchange group’s application?”
“If you agree, do you agree in full or in part?”
“If you agree in part, what should you agree to? ?”
The nobles of the Kaya Empire discussed these three issues for a long time.
Although the Orc Empire spans the entire northern part of the Human Alliance, it is definitely not something that the Kaya Empire alone can resist.
However, what the Kaya Empire wanted to attack and occupy was only the easternmost corner of the huge Orc Empire.
There are many forests and many magical beasts here.
If it were not stuck at this point in the Year of Tides, the Orc Empire would be more worried about the Kaya Empire directly attacking the Endless Sea.
Maybe they will just send some troops as they did in the past and be done with it.
Therefore, although the scale of mobilization of the Orc Empire this time is larger than in the past, in fact, the Kaya Empire is not unable to fight back head-on.
But what troubles the nobles of the Kaya Empire is the issue of losses.
If the loss is really too great, how can we survive the rest of our lives?
Letting the descendants of these princes from the Munn Empire join in can indeed share the losses.
But part of the final cake must also be given away.
The imperial nobles, who had been discussing for a long time, finally managed to find a "balance point", which not only allowed them to reduce their losses, but also divided the cake as little as possible!
So some things are basically determined now.
——They will approve the applications of the descendants of princes and princes in the exchange group, but not all of them will be approved.
A group of nobles have roughly negotiated a "suitable amount".
The other issue is the family support behind the descendants of these princes.
Just by looking at the few people in the exchange group, they are all extremely rare mages.
But limited by their age and realm, they will not be able to contribute much in the next war.
So it is actually the family behind them that makes the most efforts.
Then this needs to be restricted.
First of all, His Majesty the Emperor’s “suggestion” is:
"The manpower and material resources of the great nobles to support their descendants can only be "sent away". It is impossible to go back after the war."
Secondly, the views of the nobles are relatively consistent:
"We cannot allow a few powerful forces with strong backgrounds in the exchange group to 'dominate' each other, we must be 'fair'!"
It is said to be for "fairness", but the actual operation is to limit the students in the exchange group from their families. The maximum amount of support a side can receive.
——They did not allow the great nobles in the Munn Empire to provide excessive support, which eventually gave rise to excessive strength and posed too great a threat to them.
After such "fairness".
Although I don’t know if any of the exchange group’s “powers” are weak, they certainly don’t have strong ones.
With such restrictions, the nobles of the Kaya Empire said they could barely accept it.
Finally, there is the issue of the specific choice of students in the exchange group. This issue is still in a stalemate.
Although it is actually the families behind the exchange group students who played a major role in the war. But in the end, it was these students from the exchange group who changed their nationalities who took the cake.
His Majesty the Emperor’s “suggestion” is:
“Start with the best, the better, the better. A powerful mage can create a lot of value. This reflects fairness. At the same time, it can further enhance the future national strength of the Kaya Empire."
But there are differences among the nobles.
The lesser nobles with lower strength do not agree with His Majesty the Emperor's opinions.
According to the results of the current discussions, these exchange group students will eventually reach their level.
Therefore, these small nobles are worried that the "new nobles" of the exchange group will pose threats and obstacles to their interests.
So their opinion is that the more mediocre the exchange group students they choose, the better!
Compared to the small nobles, the slightly stronger middle nobles have an indifferent attitude.
They have passed the stage of careful intrigue.
If you have this time to play tricks, it is better to develop your own hard power in an upright manner.
The great nobles agreed more with His Majesty the Emperor's ideas.
They have huge power in the Kaya Empire, and the strength of the Kaya Empire is directly related to their interests.
So of course they still hope that the overall strength of the empire will be stronger.
Although logically speaking, the small nobles cannot resist the big nobles "and His Majesty the Emperor".
But they couldn't bear the advantage of their numbers.
In addition, it is still early, so there is no rush to make a decision, and the nobles do not want to offend anyone casually.
In the end, the matter came to a stalemate.
......
Brand's side, after this month of hard work.
He finally opened up a magic space that night and became an intermediate mage apprentice.
Very similar to spiritual space.
The magic space can store magic power.
The storage limit is four times the magic power limit. Only one of the two magic powers can be successfully stored.
For intermediate mage apprentices, the spiritual space and magic space are both backup warehouses.
When needed, you can let yourself burst out with more powerful power in a short period of time.
After feeling the effect of magic space storing magic power, Brand turned to business.
——This is already an intermediate mage apprentice, and it is time to study the rune array of the wind elemental magic force field.
With this thought in mind, Brand took out a huge "array base" from the space equipment.
——The magic circle base of the wind elemental magic force field.
This thing was drawn by Brand the day after Celine demonstrated the wind elemental magic force field to him.
——It took a whole day of free time and expensive magic gold coins.
After actually drawing the base of the magic circle, he realized how "high-end" his teacher's operation was that day.
——Microscopic operations in high-pressure environments.
——The special spell structure composed of restless magic power replaces the 'pathway' of drawing the base plate.
——The restless wind element replaces the ‘node’.
——Draw runes directly with mental power.
Each of these difficulties gave Brand a headache, but he had to solve them.
At this point in time when he became an intermediate mage apprentice, Brand was finally ready to study these difficult problems a little.
