Act 369 The Empire Rain IV(2/2)

"Cang Zhihui is strange to some people, but it is very familiar to me," Friston smiled, not explaining why he is very familiar. After all, it was an experience that belonged only to him, and only explained: "I have seen Cang Zhixing before."

Fang Yu suddenly realized.

He still can't tell why this genius had seen Cang Zhihui. This is an unnatural matter. He and Helinwell and Gerdham not only saw Cang Qing Star, but also conducted in-depth research. Even all the technologies that the empire is advancing are related to it.

It can even be said to be from this, the source of everything.

Since the other party had seen the fragments of Cang Qing Star and Cang Zhihui, it was natural to think of Cang Qing Star and the fragments of Hailin Crystal from the battle between him and the Dragon Witch. After all, he really used that power at that time.

He was a little silent. It would be understandable if he guessed his relationship with Hailin Crystal in this way. But although he felt relieved, another layer of uneasiness arose in his heart. If this craftsman president could guess, then could anyone else guess?

He was not worried that others would guess his connection with Cang Zhihui, but worried that those people would mistakenly think that he was related to Hailin Crown.

After all, he has really seen Hailin King Crown, and many people know that he and Miya have met once.

He suddenly realized why Ming and Baixue came to him in a hurry at that time - or did the guild behind them have noticed it and even began to doubt it?

Fortunately, Sister Ming was standing on her side, and Bai Xue also promised to help her keep the secret. This made him feel relieved, and he also felt alert. Now it seems that the bright light on his body cannot be exposed at all times.

It turns out that many people know this thing.

He thought about all this and realized that he was a little distracted. He raised his head and looked at the president. Friston followed his logic and said, "Since you have seen the inevitable result, you will naturally understand the original intention of me, the mortal alchemists, and it is somewhat helpless to choose to take this path, but it is a necessary thing."

"We act for our world. The upcoming war is a cruel future for everyone, but we cannot escape and therefore can only face it. Bleeding cannot be avoided, so sacrifice is inevitable."

"Sacrifice?" Fang Yu reacted, "Mr. President, I have heard of the alchemy reform you led. Is all this related to that plan?"

"You are very keen," Friston nodded. "The Empire has been advancing this plan since about a century ago. At that time, I was just an advocate. After all, the great prophecy has always existed. His Majesty, the emperors of all generations, have never given up on the search on this path."

"The previous Majesty spent all his life hard work to promote the entire transformation of the empire. Some of these transformations seem inappropriate today, and some have even regressed, but most of the reforms have become today's reality," he said. "You are from Kaolin. The Kingdom of Kaolin fought against the Empire in the Second World. In theory, you should be clear about the achievements of the empire over the past thirty years."

"That may hurt people," Friston said, "but don't worry, you are an alchemist, you should understand that alchemy is not that narrow-minded. Because technology will spread one day, I have no intention of holding it firmly in the hands of the empires. My original intention was to let you learn all this and bring them back to your country. Unfortunately, not many people really understand what I mean."

Fang Yu had nothing to worry about. In the final analysis, he was just a recruiter and had no deep feelings for the Kingdom of Kaolin. Even if he had a sense of honor, it belonged to the third division, not to the Kingdom that was a bit unfamiliar to him.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! His only understanding of that country was probably the hostility of the young king towards himself, Silmide and her father.

Although he had never even seen His Majesty the King.

However, Friston's words also proved his speculation, although that was almost obvious - the technological change of the empire was indeed related to the imminent disaster.

"But," Fang Rong couldn't help asking, "You are willing to let the technology spread out. What about the empire, the emperor, and the nobles of the empire, do they agree with it? I mean, the spread of technology has its regularity, and the technological changes are driven by the empire, so it is understandable that the Oshus are the first to enjoy its benefits, but according to Mr. President, you seem to want us, the contestants of the league, to bring your efforts back to their kingdom?"

"Since you mentioned the Star of Devastation, you naturally understand that this is the disaster that the entire Aitalia faces," Friston replied. "If only the Imperials could withstand natural disasters, it was something that even the Nomerlin elves could not do. Naturally, His Majesty and the Magic Emperor could not be so naive."

"Did that Majesty agree?"

"Your Majesty is first the holder of the hand of philosophy, the heir of the Silver Helmet Guard, and then the Emperor of the Oshu. This is the contract we made in the wilderness in the first era. The reason why the Oshu Empire was established was to protect civilization."

The four words "Guarding civilization" shocked Fang Yu.

But this matter is simple, but often complicated. He asked: "That Majesty agrees, but did the nobles agree, and the imperialists have reached an agreement?"

If the empire has reached an agreement, does this president need to come here to discuss with him? Isn’t it enough to just contact the craftsmen associations in other countries? The craftsmen association’s network is spread throughout Aitalia, and it is not much more reliable to rely on their leverage than those of them?

What's more, he still remembers everything he saw in Istania. Behind the blind god Descartes, there are Prometheus people who are active, and what's more, Ye Hua and Xing Ming clearly told him that there is the shadow of the US military behind it.

Unlike the third division where the Korlin Kingdom is kept a distance, the US military has a precedent for directly interfering in the political situation of the empire, or rather, it is better to say that the current emperor has a deep connection with Washington when he ascended the throne. Although the empire is still strong and arrogant, even if it is powerful in the first division, it cannot penetrate too deeply here, but it does maintain all influence on the upper class of the empire.

So if the first division, if the Oshus really reached an agreement, would he still see everything he saw in the sand?

He didn't forget everything he saw under Nordspits, and the abnormal appearance of Irs.

If the Empire is preparing for a war.

Then who is it going to declare war on?

Is it the third disaster star? But from all aspects of the spread, it is not the case. It is rumored that the Empire of Rain and Rain is preparing to take action against the Grand Parliament in the rainforest. Is the Grand Parliament an accomplice of the Dark World?

He remembered Tenerik. Although the Lizard Prince did not tell him much about their mission to the empire, he could see that the Tada Lizard Priests who passed by the rainforest were also preparing for the upcoming prophecy of the doomsday.

So what exactly does the empire mean?

He stared in the president's eyes.

Friston didn't look away and replied directly: "Of course, no one will agree, but don't worry, I have convinced most people. Before that, the only opponent was the Seven Magic Family, but now they are also on our side."

"Duke of Hawk?"

Fang Zhuan suddenly woke up.

"Absolutely," Friston replied, "but it was a matter within the empire. Of course, the Duke's experience was somewhat related to it, but not just that. I don't want to talk too much about the internal affairs of the empire. After all, the Duke was unruly, and he had heard of the conflicts with His Majesty-"

He stopped, "Anyway, it turns out that, is the politics of the empire important for the alchemist?"

It's really not important. Fang Rong was not concerned about that at all. He just asked: "How can the President convince those nobles? Not everyone is on the side of the Hawke family, right?"

Friston glanced at him unexpectedly.

At that moment, Fang Yu even felt Luo Fen's gaze falling on him. He looked in that direction, and was a little surprised - what was this guy looking at - but Luo Fen had already withdrawn his gaze before that.

"The distribution of interests within the empire," Friston skipped the topic, "You care about it? But it is not important. For the alchemy journey, those are just necessary but meaningless work."

But he subconsciously avoided it and instead let Fang Zhu become alert. He naturally thought of what the genius in the tower told him.

What exactly made the president obey the nobles.

Yes, no one can last forever.

But no one has ever given up on his pursuit of eternity. If there is such an opportunity in front of him, will he be moved?

After experiencing the journey of the tower and witnessing the final outcome of the starry sky, he may not be moved, but what about other people? Those nobles are known for their short-sightedness.

Fang Yu looked at the president deeply.

He had roughly understood the path the other party was walking. He hesitated for a moment, intending to tell the other party about the final result - whether Friston accepted it or was trapped in the deep-rooted creed in his soul.

He has to try it.

Otherwise, if the empire insists on its own, other countries will be involved in the war.

But by some reason, Fang Yu stopped first, remembered another thing, and asked subconsciously: "On the way I came, I heard that the empire was going to launch a war against the Grand Parliament in the southern rainforest. The fluctuations in the alchemy materials market seemed to point to this rumor. But have the envoys in the rainforest just left the imperial capital? Mr. President, is this true?"

He actually felt a little regretful when he asked this question, and realized that the previous in-depth discussion had made him a little surpassed.

Even if this is true, it must be the secret of the empire. No matter how the president in front of him or Rofen viewed him, it would never be possible to mention this matter to him.

Not only will he not get the answer, he may arouse the other party's suspicion and even feel disgusted.

But what Fang Yu never expected was that Friston looked at him and nodded directly.

"Yes."

"What!?" Fang Yu was shocked. The answer was so unexpected that he stayed there for a moment, with a brief blank in his mind, and even forgot how to answer next.

It was not that he had thought that there was such a possibility. After all, rumors might be false, but the fluctuations in bulk materials in the market would definitely point to that fact. He is an alchemist and is more sensitive to changes in the price of alchemy materials.

A large part of the mortal magic technology actually points to war-related machines. He is a combat craftsman and is good at making constituents, so he is particularly sensitive to this change.

What's more, he had seen the mysterious army of the Empire under Nordspits.

What was the purpose of the army formed at this time? The significance behind it is already very obvious.

But what Fang Liu never expected was that the president did not avoid his question at all and directly told him the answer. The other party didn't even seem to be much hesitant, nor was he surprised because he asked this question.

The other party just looked at him and asked:

"This war is naturally part of that plan."

"Do you want to know?"

"I--"

Fang Zhu was a little dazed for a moment.
