Chapter 186 Lin Feng is dead
One day later.
In all the major cities of the Star-Moon Empire, the news about the death of the eldest prince Brady Star-Moon during the assessment in the Magic Tower has spread.
The Star-Moon Empire Magic Association headquarters was the first to be hit. The headquarters building was surrounded by the Star-Moon Empire Knights and Magic Corps, sparking heated discussions among the public.
The Empire demands a reasonable explanation from the Magic Association and the Magic Tower, and wants to see the person alive or the body dead.
Upon learning of this, the president of the Magic Association headquarters went to the Magic Tower overnight to discuss the matter with his superiors.
Coincidentally, within half a day after this incident broke out, the Caesar Empire also publicly announced the death of James French, the leader of the Imperial Magic Corps.
Caesar also asked the local Magic Association headquarters and the Magic Tower to provide explanations and solutions.
Moreover, the night before Caesar announced the news, an explosion occurred over the imperial capital, and there was damage to the Caesar Palace.
Some witnesses said that the explosion was caused by a battle between two powerful magicians, but it was impossible to identify who those two magicians were.
Three days later, a piece of news spread all over major cities:
《The Caesar Empire and the Star-Moon Empire jointly issued a statement that they will hold the Magic Tower and the headquarters of the two empires' magic associations accountable》
The statement said that if the Magic Tower did not give specific compensation standards, or the compensation could not satisfy the two empires, the empire would impose sanctions on the headquarters and branches of magic associations in various places.
This includes sanctions on associations, interruptions to commercial trade, and increased industrial tax rates; strengthening the review of magicians under their jurisdiction, and if any members are found to have violated regulations or laws, they will be severely punished in accordance with imperial law.
As soon as this statement came out, the magicians under the Magic Association felt overwhelmed.
They are citizens of the Empire first, and members of the Magic Association second.
This measure of the Empire is obviously aimed at the Magic Tower and the Magic Association. The ordinary magicians in the Magic Association are the innocent victims.
They are not afraid of being found out for any mistakes they have made, but being scrutinized is itself a very troublesome thing.
But they could not say that this was unreasonable behavior on the part of the Empire. Morally speaking, on the one hand, the Magic Tower announced that an important figure of the Empire was dead, but on the other hand, it was unable to return the body. Only the Magic Tower itself knew the truth.
What if this is a conspiracy?
So when the measures came down, the Magic Association and the Magic Tower did not make any statement for the time being, and I don't know whether they were afraid or what.
The incident happened on the 5th day.
Under tremendous pressure, the Magic Tower was willing to compensate the Star-Moon Empire and the Caesar Empire with 10 forbidden scrolls each, as well as pieces of master-level equipment and magic books.
However, it was rejected by both empires. The empire believed that the Magic Tower was fooling around and the compensation it made was not sincere at all.
The incident happened on the seventh day.
The Star-Moon Empire and the Caesar Empire simultaneously proposed that if the Magic Tower was willing to provide seats on the core board of directors to the two empires, they could accept the previous compensation.
But as soon as this statement was made, it was immediately rejected by the Magic Tower.
That night after the Magic Tower's rejection, the Stormrage Empire fell.
The three empires, the Star-Moon Empire, the Caesar Empire and the Windrage Empire, agreed to establish the [New Magician Alliance].
What is the New Magicians Alliance?
It is a new magician organization formed by magicians who are not in the Magician Association and the Magic Tower.
Members include members of the Imperial Magician Corps, members of local garrison magic corps, wandering magicians who have not joined the Magicians Association, etc.
At the same time, invitations were extended to magicians who originally belonged to the Magic Tower and the Magicians' Association. As long as they could withdraw from their original organizations, they would be able to enjoy better treatment.
Otherwise, the three empires will begin to impose domestic taxes on the magicians of the Magic Association/Magic Tower and cancel some rights in the city.
As the news came out, it caused a sensation in the entire magical world.
The three empires boycotted the Magic Association and the Magic Tower at the same time, and established opposing magician organizations.
The magicians in this world were completely divided into two factions, forcing the magicians to make a choice.
From that day on, millions of magicians from the Magic Association had to give up their identities as registered magicians of the Magic Association in order to live and work well in the three empires, and turned into registered magicians of the [New Magic Alliance].
This was later called the "Seven Days Incident in the Magic World". It ended with the Magic Tower and the Empire refusing to compromise with each other, and the Magic Tower's "Magic Patrol Team" plan was stillborn!
……
Magic Tower.
This is the nth meeting of the top leaders of the Magic Tower since the Seven Days Incident in the magic world.
This was the first time since the establishment of the Magic Tower that it was defeated in the face of the three empires. On the surface, it seemed that they were uncompromising, but in fact, they were a loss.
Many magicians believe that it was caused by the inaction of the Magic Tower, but in fact, few people know the truth.
The tower master, Jed Douglas, was standing at the window with his back to the conference table, overlooking the wheat fields below, with a hint of melancholy in his eyes.
He sighed, then turned back to look at Jenny Murphy, who had lost half of her left hand.
That day, Jenny Murphy went to the Caesar Empire to negotiate with Caesar the Great, but the talks broke down, leading to a battle over the Caesar Empire.
In the end, Jenny Murphy was defeated by Caesar and left the Caesar Empire at the cost of losing her hand.
At this moment, she was still suffering from the spell cast by Caesar, and it would take at least a month to completely dispel the curse from the wound.
But the aftereffects may not be optimistic.
For the Magic Tower, Jenny Murphy's injury was far more painful than the boycott of the Magic Association.
They also didn't expect that the three empires would take advantage of the issue and escalate the death of the two people to the current level.
It was no longer just about seeking justice for the Crown Prince and Franky, but a thoroughly evil and ambitious plan.
"If you want to divide it up, then divide it up. It's hard to manage a big business." Jenny Murphy slapped the table with anger on her face.
"Things are beyond redemption, and Caesar has also demonstrated his long-hidden strength. I'm afraid the magic world will start to fall into chaos before it even faces the invasion of other worlds." said the presiding judge, Phil Mingo.
"There is one strange thing. Our inspection team has not been established yet, so why did Ryan Wood go to the Star-Moon Empire under this name? Tower Master?" asked Deputy Tower Master Copperfield Hawke.
Tower Master Jed walked to the conference table and sat down.
"Originally I should have gone, but I wanted to train Ryan Wood, so I ordered him to go."
"We can all understand this, but the question is, have they sent back any news during this period of time? Since he has assumed this responsibility, why did he just watch the situation deteriorate? Such a person is not suitable for taking on such an important responsibility," said Hawke.
Jenny Murphy glanced at Hawke and closed her eyes.
Zedd took another deep breath:
"I regret to inform you that Lai...Lin Feng is dead."
