Show field

A cold, cool dead silence permeates the white and wide space, especially in the square space without any windows or ventilation equipment, and there is almost no unnecessary sound in this closed room.

Only on a table and chair in the center, a few thin whistling voices from the nasal cavity slightly spread in this space.

The "representatives" sitting on the chairs all lowered their faces to think about the reason for gathering here, and a series of trivial things that happened last night emerged in their minds.

No matter how you think about it, you feel troubled and resentful.

"I believe that everyone understands the reason for holding the "Family Meeting" temporarily this morning."

The host of this meeting and the convener of the highest secret meeting within the Magic Kingdom——Lin Tianyu, with the usual mysterious and weird smile on his face, opened his mouth to everyone for the first time to break the current situation. An oppressive atmosphere that is hard to breathe.

The highest meeting from ancient times to the present is almost a meeting that will only be opened when faced with major events. At this moment, in the hands of His Majesty the king, it has set a record of meeting again only a few hours apart.

If the former king who died saw this abnormal scene, he would be dizzy with anger, thinking that the king's actions were too harmful to the country's funds and the mental and physical strength of the heads of the major families.

Being seen by the magical ancestors of the past will definitely cause a burst of criticism, but these are all reactions that can only be had in a "comfortable" state.

"The troops of our ice family have not tracked down the enemy."

The head of the Ice family didn't have a smile on the scene, it should be said that he couldn't even make a basic smile on the scene.

Thinking of the series of scenes that appeared last night, it was already the limit not to show anger on his face.

"We haven't made any progress either."

The content should clearly be about discouragement and loss, but the tone of the head of the Lei family seemed to be a noble speech that reached the ground from the sky, not only full of confidence and pride, but also oppressive that others could hardly refute.

But looking carefully at the fact that the head of the Lei family did not close his eyes, but stared directly at the king with bright red eyes full of battle, one can understand that the head of the Lei family has indeed suffered a setback in his heart. It reveals a desire to do something that can save the face of the Lei family.

In the face of failure, he did not appear tired and weak, but wanted to make up for it with a more active and tough approach. This is the natural strong man under natural selection.

"There is no movement of criminals here in the Fire Family."

The head of the Huo family twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, narrowed his eyes and told the king that he was full of information about his failure, and his almost angry face twisted when he told the story.

The most angry person among the three family heads is the Huo family head.

The most unexpected situation, but as long as the character of the person is taken into account, everything will become reasonable.

"The Feng family troops have not made any progress so far. They must have taken a route that our magic range cannot detect. After one night and now there is still no information from them, there must be one possibility left. They are taking the road of the god-gathering forest. I Our troops have been dispatched."

"What we're talking about is the follow-up, aren't we?"

Taking a light breath to calm his emotions, the originally clearly visible eyes of the head of the Bing Family gradually gave off a strange and ethereal appearance, and became clearly visible again.

"Yes, what we want to discuss is what kind of attitude and actions we will take if they successfully return to the country."

"Demand to hand over the criminal, and if refused, issue a 'warning' from our country."

The decisive and direct tough attitude is exactly the natural character of the head of the Lei family. What is different from the head of the Huo family is that the head of the Lei family does not have an impulsive personality that destroys everything, but has a calm analysis to understand how much strength the enemy has. When it is confirmed that it can be crushed, it mercilessly bestows the power of despair.

The head of the Lei family is a hero who has often experienced the battlefield, and he is very clear about the strength of the kingdom of swords, which means that in the eyes of Shen Wantianyan, such an enemy is not to be feared.

According to the words of Shen Wantian, the swordsmen of the kingdom of swords are a group of races that are prepared to be eliminated in the natural selection environment.

Perhaps because there was no pressure brought by the former head of the Lei family, the attitude of the head of the Lei family at this meeting was more natural and direct. Of course, the arrogance that can conquer people with just sight is still strongly imprinted on his body.

It didn't bother the other people present too much. On the contrary, this is what everyone hoped for. After all, the most troublesome thing in such a meeting is nervousness and timidity leading to wrong judgments.

"I agree."

This most direct approach won the support of the head of the Huo family immediately. Suddenly, two families in the four major families chose such a tough stance that lacks "equality". The head of the Bing family also closed his mouth tightly for a while, thinking own next move.

The content of consideration is naturally a series of issues such as whether it will affect the funds and face within the family.

"I don't know what the head of the Ice family thinks?"

His Majesty the King's eyes moved to the head of the Ice Family who did not express his opinion, and the "Quasi-Ice Family Head" behind him.

"I don't know how His Majesty the King will judge?"

Even if the most respected person comes to inquire in person, the head of the Ice family is still unable to make a judgment immediately. According to the regulations at the meeting, his judgment will have a major impact. The direct approach of the Lei family is as rich and powerful.

What I can do now is to refer to the statement of the head of the Feng family who is very similar to my own family.

"My direction is simple."

As if seeing through the head of the Ice family, the head of the Feng family immediately responded and continued with attractive words.

"I need the body material of that criminal. This is to create the next page in the history of the Magic Kingdom. For this, I will not hesitate, even if war is launched."

Unlike the usual practice of advocating peace, His Majesty the King belongs to a stable and quiet faction in everyone's perception, at least everyone thought so before this sentence full of "radical" words.

Although this sentence has been deliberately said in a calm tone, there is no problem with the ears of the heads of the major families. This sentence clearly contains radical words of "dangerous".

Within a second of this sentence, everyone even had the illusion of hearing it wrong, and then they began to think about the hidden benefits behind it.

Everyone knows that the king is eager for the final fruit, and it is enough to send the Wind Troops to the Gathering Forest.

"Since His Majesty the King agrees, I have nothing to say."

According to the rules, this resolution will be passed with only more than three votes, and now the discussion on this topic has a clear direction in less than 5 minutes. The head of the Ice family cannot interfere with this resolution. The agreed resolution, the Ice Family does not want to be a special negative vote at all.

"Everyone, please allow me to continue the follow-up on this topic."

The head of the Feng family lightly raised his hand to signal that the topic was not over, and he bombarded everyone with the next sentence before they could absorb it.

"If Kingdom of Sword still does not intend to hand over this criminal, should we take further action after the warning?"

Words full of assumptions and fears.

Obviously, it is a sentence that everyone is free to think about, but the question is where is the scale.

"If this is the case, then there must be a next step, otherwise we will lose the face of our Magic Kingdom."

The impetuous head of the Huo family immediately agreed, but he didn't say the real important thing, but fell into silence and let the whole space be occupied by dead silence.

No one opened the mouth to draw a line on the scale of action, and no one asked questions on such a scale.

In fact, according to previous large and small wars with the Kingdom of Swords, most of them belonged to "small disputes" caused by hunting for food and encroaching on occupied territories.

It's not that he thinks that he will be defeated, but that the losses and risks involved are not worth fighting, but now the king is very blatantly throwing this issue to everyone.

The "felons" sentenced by the Magic Kingdom fled back to their hometown, and if the other party's representative did not intend to hand in people, then the problem would not be solved or covered up by just a magic troop.

Any family head can judge at least how many troops the country needs to send troops through a casual simulation, and defeating all the economic lifelines and capitals of the enemy country is considered a "national level war."

No matter how you think about such a scale, it is impossible to send troops casually.

"Since everyone is still thinking, let me talk about my own thoughts first?"

Silver eyes swept across the crowd who had no expression or opinion, put their hands on the table and crossed and continued.

"If the warning is ineffective, as the head of the Huo family said, our face should not be underestimated by the other party. I suggest that all the troops of the four major families be mobilized, so that the inexperienced magicians can gain the necessary experience, so that our people can gain what they lack. food."

"Master Feng, is this sentence suitable for this family meeting?"

After hearing the thoughts shared by the king, the head of the Fire family, regardless of his status as the head of the family, could no longer worry about his usual mood of bickering with the head of the Ice family. On the head of the Feng family.

It's not a question of curiosity, but a questioning attitude filled with anger.

"Head of the Fire Family, why do you say that?"

Facing this angry and almost calm object, the head of the Feng family still seemed at ease, even though the surrounding temperature rose slightly, he was not overwhelmed by fright and timidity.

"Your Majesty, your insistence just now will make our country short of troops, and we will be invaded by a third country at any time. As long as the news and rumors are inquired, the capital will definitely be engulfed in flames!"

The capital of the Magic Kingdom fell into the scene of being invaded. When His Majesty the King said the words "all troops are mobilized", everyone had already come up with the worst possibility, but now that the head of the Huo family mentioned it personally, the scene more real and clear.

"The head of the Huo family is right. The third country is a moody country. It is very likely that as long as there is news, it will send troops to attack. But the same possibility will also appear in the kingdom of swords. The enemy must also worry about this possibility. , so I propose to send a small team of two nobles to lobby a third country while sending troops to the expedition.”

"Your Majesty, allow me to interject."

"Of course no problem, head of the Ice family."

With a slight smile, he looked at the head of the Ice family who remained silent.

For the first time, the mysterious smile revealed by the head of the Feng family made the head of the Bing family feel a tension and pressure that could not be ignored. It was a strange feeling that he had never had in previous family meetings, and even had the illusion that he did not know the king.

"Is the value of this criminal's existence really large enough to send troops of the size of a country?"

"The head of the Ice family, this sentence is too arbitrary. Every magician in the army is an elite, and they are all magicians that our magic country has worked hard to cultivate. Naturally, the flesh and blood of our family heads will not give their lives at will. abandon."

A series of responses to the other party made their own understanding, and regarded the group of spears like the Magic Kingdom as their own flesh and blood, and did not use them as their own tools at all.

I am afraid that as long as any magician hears the king's words, he will definitely swear his allegiance to the king of the Magic Kingdom loudly, and dedicate his body and soul to the head of the Feng family.

But to the family heads present, it only seemed ridiculous. The important thing is that none of these words answered the question of the head of the Bing family.

The king didn't intend to tell the reason to everyone, but he wanted everyone to move out all their troops, just for a "criminal" that the enemy valued.

Face, if this is the only motivation, then it should be suggested by the head of the Huo family who is most concerned about face.

"Your Majesty, what exactly does the wind magic show you?"

Faced with a situation where there was no progress, the head of the Lei family couldn't help but go straight to the point, and didn't want to communicate with too many concealed words. The first sentence was to ask the king to tell the "real reason".

"The head of the Lei family is worthy of being the most outstanding member of the younger generation. This passion is indeed fortitude and directness."

Feeling admiration for this young man, at least in the words of praise, the head of the Feng family paused, and continued in a slightly low and tense manner.

Let the atmosphere fall again in an instant, showing a strong oppressiveness that cannot be interrupted at will.

"This criminal must be brought back to our Magic Kingdom. The reason is very simple. It is the true identity of the captain of the so-called hostage team. We have only known the captain's name for a long time, and almost no one has the surname. Speaking of which, the enemy also "deliberately" used a very common and commoner surname to cover up the characteristics of this person, and it was not until I "watched" with my own eyes that I realized the identity of this person, the identity of the blood of the killing magician."

For the old family heads who have experienced wars, it is a "dangerous term" that they don't want to think about, and they all lower their distressed expressions and bloom solemnly.

For the younger generation of magicians, they seemed to have never heard unfamiliar words. The head of the Lei family present and the eldest daughter of the Ice family who had been standing behind the head of the Ice family kept their expressions unchanged, which was enough to represent that both of them The danger and "fear" of not understanding the term.

"It's normal for the younger generation not to understand. After all, as history, this cannot be regarded as a glorious experience of a generation. First of all, let's start with the legend. A swordsman created a set of extremely strong and magic-breaking swordsmanship. It ended with the destruction of the world, but the bloodline of this world-destroying demon did not cease. Until our generation, it was only considered "suspected existence". However, 20 years from now, a ronin who wandered in three countries Suddenly appeared and entered the kingdom of swords that was facing disintegration. With only one person's strength, he helped the current monarch succeed in ascending the throne and became the leader, and successfully blocked the troops that we took the opportunity to harass. At that time, we sent the four major families to combine six A magic troop, and only one person defeated [-] elites. I believe you understand that such a record is difficult even for the current family head, but this is not the real problem. "

As if recalling the memories of the past, the head of the Feng family gently leaned his back on the back of the chair, raised his head slightly and moved his gaze to the white roof above, and uttered all the sadness and pain while entering the state of self-memory.

At this moment, the head of the Feng family does not have the mysterious and oppressive aura as usual, but is like a veteran who has died in battle, slowly recalling all the things he has experienced in his life.

"The problem is that this swordsman is not born to be a resident of the kingdom of swords. I understood this when I "saw" him. His physical strength and reaction are not as strong as those of the kingdom of swords. No, it should be said that he has very similar abilities. There is a gap, "It's like copying the strength of the kingdom of swords" and the swordsmanship it uses is not the skill of the kingdom of swords. Combining these two points, we secretly gave this monster the name of a killing magician, and at the same time Decided to hide this period of history, but now it seems impossible to hide it anymore. The captain of the hostage team has been confirmed by the Feng family team. There is no direct connection, but there must be some kind of relationship. The Feng and Huo Clan heads here should all know this surname very well.”

"What do you mean by copying?"

Sitting in the position of the head of the Lei family, Shen Wantianyan, who will be worshiped by thousands of people in the future and has a very high chance of sitting in the highest position of the king, asked based on doubts.

Natural selection will not be the absolute strong who will become the king, but the capable ones who understand the ever-changing, understand and control the environment and survive to the end.

"The head of the Lei family is admirable and understands the heart of the whole matter."

"Your Majesty, are you sure you want to continue?"

Just as the matter was about to continue, unexpectedly, the head of the Bing family stopped the king, with a complex expression of hidden worry on his face.

"Ice Family Head, I understand your worries, but the children will grow up sooner or later, and now is the time to tell the truth."

"……Yes."

Looking at the eldest daughter beside her from the corner of her eyes, she nodded slightly to the king after two seconds of thinking.

"The swordsman 20 years ago, should be said to be a vagrant wandering in three countries, one day he entered the kingdom of swords and dedicated his body and spirit to the kingdom of swords that was almost split due to civil strife, and finally died one day And buried, in order to obtain this power, we dug up the corpses and took them to the laboratory. Using civilians without magical blood as experimental subjects, we implanted corpses into these human bodies, and the final result was that each experimental subject died of old age quickly. As a result, the experiment was forced to stop, but this report contains an important piece of information, that is, the implantation of "living material" has not yet been carried out, and the hostage leader is the living material needed for this research."

"Treating people as guinea pigs?"

Yan Bingya Luosen, who was staying beside the head of the Bing family, heard something he had never heard before, and squinted his big light blue eyes without covering up, clearly showing a questioning attitude.

"Miss Yan, please put your country first, this is for our Magic Kingdom."

Facing the still calm and stable head of the Feng family, Yan Yougu wanted to loudly continue to question the urge to question everything in the past, but under the strong gaze of "all the head of the family" present, he could only force it back into his throat .

"The older ones here believe that it is the power of "replication" that knows the real power of the murder tool. Originally, the person who was not from the kingdom of the sword was a vagrant who had no ability and wandered in three countries. Only the kingdom of swords has strong physique and strength. From this point of view, the theoretical research team has concluded that not only physical fitness can be copied, magic, but also the power of a third country can be copied. If we catch criminals and succeed Integrating this energy into ordinary people will completely change the way we fight in the future, and we civilians can also fight, whether it is a low-level magician or a combat vanguard position, it can be mass-produced quickly and efficiently.”

Opening his hands, he narrated a vision that no family head present could have imagined, just like a religious fanatic conveying his absolute belief.

"Everyone, our research team believes that the success of this achievement is at least [-]%. This probability alone is enough reason for everyone here to understand the necessity of sending troops."

"Only [-]%?"

"The head of the Lei family seems to be a little confused by this number?"

Faced with a series of questioners who appeared in his remarks, the head of the Feng family still showed his graceful and unrestrained attitude, and smiled at the head of the Lei family.

"With all the troops dispatched, the success is still only [-]%?"

"In terms of probability, this is indeed a big problem. After all, in front of big rewards and big risks, the funds and manpower that need to be invested are also huge, but what I said is at least [-]% if I change to optimistic probability."

The words of a one-time increase of [-]% are like a folk salesman's skillful technique. Everyone in the room took a deep breath under this number as if they were guests.

Everyone present had a heart-warming thought.

"In addition, the same fighting method will be given to everyone in the family, and no money will be charged. What I ask is that everyone is willing to send troops."

After the head of the Feng family said this, he crossed his hands on the table, and his silver eyes stared at the faces of all the family heads around him like dialysis.

Thinking, nervousness, worry, intertwined eyes with questions, and hesitant expressions caused by temptation, all these are collected in the eyes of the head of the Feng family.

After nearly a minute of dead silence, the head of the Huo family slowly raised his hand.

"I agree with the king's idea, and my family is willing to send troops."

There was a beginning, the head of the Lei family leaned back on the back of the chair, and raised his hand in the same way.

"agree."

In an instant, two family heads agreed. Faced with such a possible gamble that might squander all the savings of the past ten or twenty years, two of them agreed within a few minutes.

It should be an answer that requires careful consideration for at least a few hours or even temporarily suspending the meeting, and returning to the family for a series of long-term discussions. Now half of them raised their hands and agreed.

The results of fatal attraction, reducing unnecessary expenditures to have a civilian army that can resist powerful enemies, and the attractive success rate, all these make people paralyzed and stalemate even the thinking of the brain.

Faced with questions that are too simple and taken for granted, everyone will respond immediately.

"Then what does the head of the Ice Clan mean?"

Sure enough, the problem still came.

Feeling helpless with a heavy sigh in his heart, he couldn't make a judgment immediately, so his left and right anxious eyes looked at the other two who had already agreed.

At this moment, the head of the Bing family even feels that he is being rejected by the other three major families. If he sticks to his principles at this time and still wants to give his daughter the principles of being a dear commoner, it is likely that the family will fall into a conflict even with the Lei family. Cooperation is still in danger.

This is an absolutely unacceptable situation. It should be said that as early as the moment they started the experiment together in the past, it was already impossible for the Bing family to safely walk out of the history full of blood by themselves.

"If the common people gain power, will they fall into a crisis of our nobles' power? This will not only cause external troubles, but also internal troubles will increase sharply."

As if he had expected the head of the Bing family to think of this question, the head of the Feng family raised the corner of his mouth and responded quickly.

"When we develop this bloodline, we will start to develop the serum of the opposite model at the same time. If there are people who resist, we only need to inject the serum. Compared with the past, we can eliminate the mob faster. At the same time, it has a deterrent effect. Our family will not be dangerous. On the contrary will be more stable."

"……I understand."

Faced with this set of high-pressure words that are difficult to refute, the head of the Bing family has a hidden worry about the crisis in his heart, but at this moment the situation does not belong to him at all, and has been completely brought over by the words of the head of the Feng family, so he can only choose to ignore it An inexplicable concern.

Raise your hand slowly.

"I agree."

"I don't know what this decision is for the prospective head of the Ice family?"

Originally thought that the compromise on this matter was over, but the head of the Feng family shifted his gaze to the pale face behind the head of the Bing family, only Yan Bing Ya Luosen who had not passed out.

The gaze of the head of the Feng family is still gentle and kind as usual, but the subtle mysterious aura forms a strong oppression that is hard to breathe at this moment.

The head of the Feng family, who is usually gentle and can widely accept various opinions, seems to have become a completely different person at this moment. He has attached power to himself with just words, and turned himself into a real king of evil.

"Excellent policy."

Yan blurted out this sentence subconsciously, before his brain could absorb and connect this series of aggressive words, his mouth had already blurted out the words of approval.

It was not driven by one's own will, but the answer was forcibly squeezed out by all the pressure conveyed by the atmosphere and aura.

In the usual family meetings, Yan Bingya Luosen has long been experienced and even provides his own opinions, but this is the first time that he is unable to express his real opinions. The invisible pressure makes people breathless, and his thinking is eroded by other people's words To the point where it couldn't work, it could only let the direction of the wind that was taken away by the head of the Feng family be led by the nose.

"Now everyone understands the conclusion of this topic. If the warning to hand over the criminal is invalid, everyone please join forces to attack the kingdom of swords!"
