MTL - Magic Tower Starry Sky-Chapter 1448 commotion
The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: []https://The fastest update! No ads!
In March 736 of the Aram calendar, several articles on the forum detonated this virtual space that connects all lost places.
’ I remember I used to be guarding the magic tower that rushed up the traffic. Overnight, I became an island guard! '
There are several articles like this, and the authors are all tower owners of the magic tower. They used their own angles and writing styles to describe the doomsday thunder that ravaged the land and everything on it like a downpour.
The natural disaster storm didn't last long, but the result was quite terrifying. The land is gone!
What was once a mountain has become a sea. What was once a plain, with endless farmland, has become a sea. What was once a lush forest has become a sea. Even once busy ports or towns have become seas.
The trees and plants that once grew on the land, the wild beasts and monsters running around, or the living people one after another, all disappeared with the land.
No one would naively think that these people or creatures migrated to live elsewhere. Because that time is too late!
However, the descriptions of the magic tower owners are only the beginning.
Countless requests for missing persons. There are also many sentimental articles that claim that their former home has become a vast ocean, and they can't go back even if they want to go back.
There are even very few articles that witnessed the thunder that melted the land. And death is probably only a few steps away from the author. These people were all lucky, hiding in the range of the magic tower, or crossing some invisible boundaries.
When the news spread in the conference hall of the Karlsruhe Empire that the Grand Duke Frias declared war on a magician, everyone realized that the territory of the Grand Duke who had declared war was gone!
Not being stripped of titles, not being occupied by neighboring nobles, nor being occupied by enemies, but actually 'lost'. The land level is gone.
Also because of the seaside, the sea water flooded back, turning the former scope of the Grand Duke's territory into an ocean! And not only the territory directly under the Grand Duke, but also the sub-title territories he entrusted, the same situation.
Then what caused all this was a metal monster capable of emitting thunder, and the witnesses were all the people in the Imperial City of Neuquen. Including dignitaries and ordinary people, even lower untouchables or foreign businessmen, adventurers, and mercenaries.
People in the whole country are telling the same thing in unison, and it is difficult for outsiders not to believe it. Because there are too many witnesses, there is no point to question. The only question is, where did those metal monsters floating in the sky come from?
Finally, there is the most exciting piece of news, the magician had a fight with the Lord of Guardians, and he survived! The witnesses are a bunch of nobles from the empire.
They didn't have the slightest intention to conceal the news, and even spread it widely to the outside world. Especially to warn the children in the family that no one can provoke the magician.
Because of that battle, many people watched the beginning, and some even persisted until the end. Although it is not the end of whoever defeats whom, facing a **** with a powerful sequence of divine power, it is almost a miraculous result that the magician can survive.
Furthermore, because of the battle between the magician and the Guardian Lord, too many families have handled the funeral of the head of the family, and started large or small civil strife over the issue of succession. The tragic situation of these families is also the aftermath and evidence left by that battle. No one can pretend to be blind, let alone be a part of it.
In short, for a person who can dig a Grand Duke's territory into an ocean with one order, and even fight with the main body of the guardian, let alone pay attention to it, just avoid it for fear of being too late!
All conspiracies and calculations have also been suspended. In the face of absolute strength, crushing all conspiracies is not a big problem. And no one wants to be the one to be crushed.
Even the empress, supported by the magician, has become more subtle in her position. After all, the adulterous relationship between the two has long been known to the public, and the nobles also regarded this relationship as a handle, hiding it and waiting for a suitable opportunity.
Now they dare not move, and no one dares to stand up. No one dared to bet that the magician would act recklessly regardless of the consequences, and no one could afford the consequences of the magician going crazy.
But it is impossible to turn around and change positions to curry favor with that empress. Instead of going through the relationship with the empress, it's better to go to the magician directly.
But it's the point of view that was avoided before, no one wants to touch that one, because they don't have effective checks and balances in their hands. It is impossible for such a person to accept the solicitation of nobles, and no noble dares to solicit. What the nobles need is a dog that can bite people, not a master to take home as a sacrifice.
So is it a stumbling block to overthrow what the one is pushing recently? Then find a way to invite the great **** out and let him get out of the empire as soon as possible.

…
The nobles thought it all together, and the best way was to speed up the magician's plan!
Fortunately, the bank said that the dominance is in the hands of the goddess of gold coins. Although the magician is the chosen one of the goddess, he does the same things as other elves, and is not particularly prominent or has the power to control. Everyone even heard that that person lost his identity as a voter!
This news is not surprising at all. Anyone with a little background in family inheritance knows the relationship between the Goddess of Gold Coins and the Three Holy Lights. One side is a comrade-in-arms, the other side is a servant, it is obvious which side a normal person will choose to support. Gods are no exception.
As for the constitutional matter, that matter was to take the emperor's power above the ground and put the power in the hands of the nobles. Although there is an additional law as a nominal constraint, and an additional lower council was set up, and some councilors came out to raise their hands in favor, but the power of the emperor is gone, and the magician who is very close to the empress can still turn the world upside down .
...seem to be able to...
But thinking about it from another angle, as long as the empress legally hands over the power in her hands, even if she clings to that magician, she won't be able to make it to heaven! This is very important.
On the contrary, the nobles now have to worry about whether the empress will simply stop the constitutional work and rely on the strength of the magician to clean up all the nobles.
No, the grand duke is gone.
Grand Duke Frias is still alive, as are his wife and children.
The Grand Duke’s mansion in the Imperial City of Neuquén was destroyed. That’s right, a bottomless pit was left at the scene, as if it could lead directly to the abyss.
But because the incident happened during the day, the members of the Grand Duke's family went out to participate in social banquets hosted by others. So the only ones that disappeared along with the Grand Duke's mansion were some servants and the minor nobles who had served the Grand Duke's family for a long time.
The properties of Grand Duke Frias are basically intact everywhere. The strongholds contained in various important towns, as well as related manpower. Those are lucrative industries, and capable people.
Backed by the Grand Duke's prestige, in the Karlsruhe Empire, their family was always the one who ate meat and soup.
But the Grand Duke is gone. In a real sense, everything is gone, including land and people.
Whether it is the excellent Duke's Guard, or the territorial background that can be recruited to form several legions at any time, all are gone. Agricultural output, mineral output, taxation, these are also gone.
Even if he insists on the ocean that was originally the territory of the Grand Duke of Frias, it is still his territory. The Grand Duke also has no one to organize fishing and generate income.
Strictly speaking, such a person is no longer qualified to be called a nobleman, at most he is a wealthy businessman...
Yes, after losing the territory and its population, although the title of grand duke has not been removed, can he still be considered a grand duke?
It's not that the down-and-out nobles have no one to lend a helping hand. Because as long as the title is still there, with the qualifications to rule a certain territory, there will naturally be people who are interested in relying on these conditions to do some tricks.
But now... many nobles remembered what the magician said in the meeting hall. When the territory and population are all gone, will the noble lineage and long-term connections still exist?
At least at the moment when Grand Duke Frias was jumping up and down, no one planned to respond to his request and target the magician who was "beaten by the Guardian Lord until he lost a hand". It was as if that little bit of disability made that magician victorious.
No nobleman wants to test this with his wealth. Especially in front of him was a hapless guy who gambled with his wealth. Although he was not yet at the point of going bankrupt, it was not far away.
Not only was the battle of vengeance that Grand Duke Frias was trying to provoke hopeless, but the originally negotiated marriages were also suspended. Some commercial cooperations were interrupted whether they were in negotiation or in progress, especially grain trading and iron ore trading.
It means that the territory is gone, the people are gone, even if the food is not produced, no one will buy it from others and eat it. The same is true of those minerals. Therefore, a considerable part of the business cooperation was interrupted, not because the other party of the cooperation looked down on the remaining Grand Duke Frias, but simply because there was no demand.
There are also some political opponents of the Grand Duke of Frias who are secretly colluding to deprive... it should be said to revoke the title of 'Grand Duke of Frias'.
Even though they have no territory, they can also be granted noble titles, but there are many nobles with false titles who have no territory in the empire. But the grand duke has the title of princes who are responsible for guarding the land, which is different from ordinary nobles.
Therefore, the proposals of those political opponents who fell into trouble can only be said to be just right, and no one can find a fault~www.novelbuddy.com~ But the power of death is still there, and the nobles still maintain a certain degree of respect for the Grand Duke of Frias. Those who are not snobbish will beat the opponent into civilians on the spot and turn a blind eye.
On the one hand, it is also because the Grand Duke still has reservations about the property outside the territory, and everyone is looking for a way to divide it up, trying to let themselves or their family swallow as much profit as possible, or take over peacefully.
With the current strength of Grand Duke Frias, he can't keep so many benefits. Giving a little to others is due righteousness, whether voluntary or involuntary.
With the example of the Grand Duke in front, everyone's attitude towards the emperor of course has to be cautious.
Thanks to the constitution, the matter of taking over power from the emperor was originally promoted by the magician. Everyone enthusiastically and spared no effort to support and act, and the magician couldn't say no to it.
So the status quo of the Karlsruhe Empire is a bit unpredictable. Everyone faintly rejected a certain magician and the empress who was connected with that magician. But for the things promoted by the magician, it is like a horse with wings.
