Vol 2 Chapter 797: Enlightened conversation (two in one)

In this way, the Houye Festival came to an end, and the 127th Tolz Sergeant Academy Academy Festival finally ended successfully.
It was supposed to be looking forward to the new school year, a hopeful moment, but because of the special situation in the empire and the heavy depression atmosphere, it became very strange.
After the school festival ended, the big figures from all walks of life who came to the school by appointment, each of them left with heavy expressions. They understand that the last relaxing time is over, and what awaits them next will be an extremely cold and merciless reality. There will be countless things, the fate of countless people in the middle and lower classes of society, waiting for them to dominate and judge.
On the second day after the powerful "protective shield" was unfolded on Crossbell's side and repelled the army of the Empire and the Republic, the Noble faction unexpectedly attacked the core of the reformist, Prime Minister Osborne. . They united a large number of media to hype up the imperial army’s failed military operations, and caused panic throughout the country. Many people who were not firm in their will or did not understand the political situation were disturbed by such propaganda; A few people have a calm judgment, knowing that this kind of propaganda is actually very exaggerated and excessive, but watching the data related to the empire's economy continue to decline precipitously, even if there is a rebuttal, they can't say it.
Twenty of the latest main tanks were destroyed by a single cannon, which shocked many people: Is the Garella Fortress, which we have always been proud of, also vulnerable to such a force? Even if such remarks seem to be overly exaggerated to some people, they cannot convince themselves to watch the stocks of the major listed companies in the empire plummet, watch the major consortia adopt austerity policies to support them, and watch the price of guidance supplies. Rising tides are "very normal things."
At the same time, the impact of the "IBC" blockade of the empire's assets also began to appear. The empire's economy, along with the turmoil in the stock and financial markets, has seen a significant decline. In order to reverse the financial deficit, many companies have already begun to prepare for large-scale layoffs, which is panic. It is difficult for people to get sufficient loans from banks as usual, and the difficulty of capital circulation has also brought a large number of chambers of commerce to a standstill. Under such circumstances, the Imperial Capital Office and the Imperial Government began to conduct joint intelligence control. For some false or exaggerated reports, tracing the root causes has eased this pressure to a certain extent. However, the means on the surface cannot prevent the gossip from running rampant in the dark, and the principle that three people become tigers is obviously applicable this time. Amidst people’s word of mouth, Krossbel has become a "repellent" that has repelled the imperial army’s offensive several times in a row, and intends to launch a counterattack, devouring the Garella fortress, and approaching the capital of Vallarhat. Powerful country". There are also some speculations that the empire’s long-time enemy, the Republic of Kalvard, will sign a military alliance treaty with Closbell to jointly invade Ereponia.
However, the actual situation is not what people are worried about, because the Kalvard Republic has its own problems. Several attacks were unsuccessful and a large number of elite airboat troops were lost to the Republic. Its ruler, President Smith, also suffered a lot of criticism. Taking this as an opportunity, ethnic issues within the Republic began to erupt. With the declining economic conditions, the aboriginals of Karvard launched venting attacks on the eastern immigrants, and armed forces from various regions that had been prepared for a while also went into battle. The entire Karvard Republic was almost paralyzed, and armed forces began to emerge everywhere. struggle. President Locksmith was so busy with this that it would be impossible for him to take care of the empire for a while.
Big powers such as the Empire and the Republic, as well as the nominal suzerain, were helpless against Crossbell. Instead, they were opposed by the generals, which incited various domestic problems. The only thing that could reverse this situation was the one located in the middle of the mainland. The Codex country did not make any statement, which made it very difficult for other small countries and autonomous prefectures in the Western Continent. They were initially opposed to Crossbell’s approach, but at this time they began to feel helpless; due to the small size of the country, the current West Continent crisis has not affected them too much, but if things drag on over time, they will sooner or later. All kinds of contradictions will erupt like the current empire and republic.
"Therefore, the Erebonian government’s decision on this matter was completely unsuccessful. The reformist representatives headed by Prime Minister Osborne were completely unable to grasp the situation, and Erebonia fell into what it is today. Situation.
Euses read the contents of the newspaper blankly. In the hot summer, the classroom was a bit sultry, causing several students present to sweat on their foreheads, but they did not distract them. Obviously, we should hold this incompetent prime minister accountable."
"Well...Although the writing is very annoying, but in this case, I really can't find any reason to refute." Marchias on the side sullenly, because of his father, he likes this very much. For the powerful prime minister, this article is obviously an aristocratic use of the topic, by the way, all the problems of the empire itself are tied to the prime minister, but in the form of the empire, such remarks, the prime minister and reformers are also There is no way to refute it.
"What a surprise, I thought you would say indignantly that the content in this newspaper is rubbish." Juss pretended to be contemptuous, but his tone was very kind, "Although I agree with your point of view... This kind of reporting is simply based on the topic and is not objective at all."
"If you change to the previous Macias, I guess it will be like this." Heliga walked into the classroom-several students immediately turned their eyes on him. Ever since he appeared abruptly that night, and sincerely apologized to all his classmates for his sudden disappearance after the party, everyone began to feel that this person was hard to understand. But he himself didn't notice that he had become the focus of everyone's attention, "But now Macias can distinguish sensibly...Huh? Why are you looking at me like this?"
"It's nothing." Alyssa said grimly, "I just hope that someone who disappeared can provide us with some specific information, instead of letting us look at the newspapers here and guess."
"How do I know, the big man's business." Heliga shrugged, sat on an empty chair, and put on a frost technique to cool everyone down-which made everyone suffer from the hot summer. My classmates are very useful-"I don't know more than you."
"Don't come." Macias snorted coldly. "The relationship between you and His Royal Highness Olibate is already an open secret."
"Well, although I can also understand your reservations..." Juss said.
"But occasionally I have to trust us more." Li En said.
"It's all right... I lost it to you." Heliga waved his hand, "Forget it, I originally planned to tell you something at this time... Just ask if you have anything. It involves confidential content."
"What happened to Clos Bell?" Laura was the first to speak, and asked the question everyone wanted to ask-Heliga went to Clos Bell in the evening, and suddenly on the third night Back, what happened in just two days?
"It's hard to imagine that the Imperial Army was actually dragged by Crossbell..." Gaius, who was on the side, also shook his head and smiled bitterly, unable to believe it.
"Dad and Lieutenant General Varta also seem to be helpless with the blue humanoid weapon." Elliott said.
"It melted twenty main tanks in one shot... Patil Matil seemed to..." Fei also said softly. She did not ask Heliga alone, but decided to listen to him after thinking with everyone.
"Well, although this sounds like the most exaggerated of all reports, it is actually the most truthful of all the news." Heliga said after listening to everyone's babble, "All in all, it is indeed It’s not something that modern Daoli Technology can do...I have observed all the three magic machines up close--"
"Three?" Emma blurted out, "But I remember, there are only two mentioned in the report..."
"Because only two were dispatched." Heliga said, "Of the three magic machines, the blue one is used to deal with the empire... Its prototype is "Pattier Matil". We are in Liberty. A huge humanoid weapon equipped by an executor encountered during Bell's time... However, its performance has been greatly enhanced, and the power of a single machine should be several times that of Ling's parents. Another purple magic machine is made based on Del Kion, and it is super high-speed, which is the one that Levi used to stop us when we landed in the floating city. "
"It seems that "Association" used their data. Fei nodded, and the other classmates did not show any doubts, because the stories of Heliga and Fei in Libel's period have been told by Fei almost, "What about the white magic?" "
"I don't know, the prototype is unknown, and the function is unknown... I have been stopped at the top of the orchid tower and have not been used. However, these three humanoid weapons have one characteristic, that is, they are to strengthen their own performance, whether in materials or The design is so extreme that they do not have any braking system and internal core power system."
"This..." Alyssa was embarrassed, "How would they move without these?"
"Because that is not relying on conventional guidance, but relying on the power of "Treasure". Heliga briefly told the story from the "D.G Order" to the Culaus family, from Kia to "Zero no Prince".
"The Seven Treasures of the Goddess... I always thought it was just a myth. Until Fei told us about your experience in Libel..." Laura frowned, "But, the man-made treasure... This is also possible. Can it be done?"
"Who knows? In short, the result is almost like that. From the disappearance of "The Treasure of Magic" a thousand years ago, to the establishment of the "DG Order" a hundred years ago, until the official closing of the network a few days ago... if not If you are doing this kind of thing, your persistence and perseverance are really commendable. "Heliga said sarcastically, "Well, but how should I put it, I don't think Closbell can keep this situation for long." "
"Why?" The power of the treasure is far beyond the reach of people. Just after landing in the mortal world, with a small test, it can directly defeat the armies of the two major countries and cause serious social changes. Once Krossberg adapts further, , I am afraid that the situation will be reversed. The fall of the Garelian Fortress, I am afraid it will not always remain at the current level of fantasy, most of the students think so. However, Heliga did not seem to take this matter seriously.
"Because, we've already experienced this kind of thing once... "Association" is a painstaking layout, the purpose is to get the treasure, or at least part of the power of the treasure. Their choice to help the Kullois family does not mean that they will become loyal allies from now on... Dita is addicted to his political ideals and cannot extricate herself, but his daughter is not the same as him... Well, Let's talk about these things later, in short, Crossbel shouldn't be the place to worry most. However, speaking of Clos Bell, I would like to ask one of them. "
Heliga's hesitation and silence aroused the curiosity of other students. They asked about what Heliga wanted to ask.
"In short, this is the current situation... It is precisely because the residents of Crossbel voted to pass the independence proposal that led to this situation. If the empire is in chaos, most of you will suffer all kinds of negatives. The influence of... Do you have hatred or feelings of discomfort for the Closber people?"
This question is a bit strange, but everyone present has thought about it seriously. They exchanged their eyes, and quickly reached a tacit understanding of this answer.
"I don't think...First of all, judging from the facts you just said, no matter what the voting results are, the preparations of the Kurois family for thousands of years cannot be changed by the temporary voting results." This is March. Yas's judgment.
"Furthermore, it is said that the people of Crossbel passed the bill on a whim after they were deliberately directed towards the public opinion of the hostile empire after the hunters attacked the city. Although I have always been quite concerned about the relationship between the empire and the Crossbel Microwords..." This is Juss' opinion.
"Nord Plateau has always had a tradition of friendship with the empire, but Crossbel doesn't seem to... They must be very eager for a strong country, very eager for real peace, and eager for no more war in their hometown. Yes. I can understand them." Gaius is sincere.
"Yeah...and the empire's problem has long been entrenched. Even if it doesn't happen this time, there will be another chance to burst out sooner or later...Crossbell, there is really nothing to hate." This is Ya Lisa's final conclusion.
"Yeah...you are right." Helija nodded, "but, do you think that in today's empire... would this idea be held by most people?"
