Chapter 329 Incitement

After finishing speaking, Gray Mist fell silent and looked at the mysterious leader.

"Did you hear that?"

The leader nodded, and his icy eyes swept over everyone present one by one. Although they were not really there, everyone still felt a slight chill.

“The overall changes in the web of fate cannot be concealed from anyone, and the high-level prophets from the other two empires will not ignore this either.

This means that the top leaders of the Gloria Empire will soon discover that there are still problems with the ruins."

"And what we have to do now is to find out what is hidden in that half of the ruins before they can react."

"But leader, the defense of the ruins is becoming increasingly strict, making it difficult for us to explore secretly."

The second black-robed man on the right spoke up and pointed out the biggest problem that everyone was facing right now.

Perhaps it was due to the upcoming competition at Pamir Academy, or some other reason. Although the exploration was over, the ninth-ranked warriors of the empire did not leave immediately, but temporarily stationed nearby.

At the same time, as the dark beast tide receded, the Gloria royal family issued an order: to expel the foreign enemies with all their strength, and when necessary, to use the heritage left over from the ancient magic empire.

Since the meteorite fell in the Magna Province within Gloria, it is completely in line with the rules of the game for the Empire to use its underlying level of power within its own country.

If the other major forces also use their power to confront the empire head-on, it would be equivalent to declaring war on the empire outright.

Given the size of the three major superpowers on the continent, if a war breaks out between the two empires, it will inevitably be a continental-level war.

Such a tragic result is something that no force on the mainland wants to see.

At least, no one wants to start a war before they are truly prepared.

Therefore, under such circumstances, the empire cleared out many foreign ninth-level professionals in a short period of time.

Perhaps some ninth-level warriors used magic to change their appearance and quietly lurked in the empire.

But before the next incident in the meteorite ruins, I am afraid that no ninth-level person would be willing to jump out and be the first to bring bad luck to the empire at such a sensitive moment.

At this point, when someone took the lead, others couldn't help but start expressing the various difficulties they encountered.

Listening to everyone's negative comments, the leader wearing a dark golden mask showed no emotion, but his eyes became somewhat impatient.

“Hehe…I’m sorry, but everyone, I think the problems we are facing now can actually be summed up in one sentence.

That is - the empire is not chaotic enough!"

At this time, Ling, who had been listening silently at the last seat on the left side of the long table, suddenly smiled and interrupted everyone's words, and he did not stop until his words shocked the audience.

As soon as Ling's words came out, the room suddenly became quiet and everyone couldn't help but look at him sideways.

Most of the people present were well aware of the problem Zero pointed out, but no one took the initiative to bring it up.

Bringing it up means being responsible for what he said, but Zero doesn't care, or rather, that's his purpose.

The leader also looked at Zero with some surprise. This was not something he had deliberately arranged. It was entirely Zero's own action.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong with what I said?"

"The Empire's counterattack was fierce, and the defense of the ruins was very strict. Isn't it because the Empire is not in chaos enough that they have the leisure to take care of other things?"

He glanced at everyone with a sad look, and there was suddenly a hint of fanaticism in Zero's words.

"Since the empire isn't in chaos enough, let's make it chaotic enough!!"

Under his fanatical gaze that showed no regard for life or death, many high-level professionals were actually a little awed for a moment.

Without paying attention to everyone's gazes, Ling suddenly stood up, took two steps, which was uncharacteristic of him, and walked to the other end of the long table, facing the leader from a distance.

Although he was standing at the end of the long table, his dignified posture made it seem as if he was standing at the head of the table.

"Support the independence of the rebels and let them attract the attention of the higher-ups. Incite the small and medium-sized nobles to form an alliance to fight against the big nobles. Didn't we do these things before?"

As he spoke, Zero opened his hands slightly.

“Before this, I had carefully studied the system of the Gloria Empire.

The royal family is at the top, followed by the four great families, and then the nine marquises, and then hundreds or thousands of earls and viscounts. "

"And each of the nine marquises is at the ninth level, or even at the ninth level limit. But their territories and resources are far inferior to those of the four major families in the empire.

I haven't been able to gather more information about them, but from a logical point of view, are they really willing to accept this situation?"

Looking at the many members who seemed to be thinking about something or showing surprise, Zero waved his hand vigorously.

“So now they have a great opportunity.

There are still problems with the ruins, and this news will soon be known to everyone. Under normal circumstances, even if it is excavated, the biggest benefits will be taken away by the royal family and the four major families.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

But now, the royal family and the four major families failed to find the key in the first time, so they had an opportunity.

If a certain marquis were to obtain the secrets in the ruins, their strength would probably instantly rise to the level of the four major families. Who could refuse such a temptation? "

"Well, if this is the insight you offer, Zero, then I have to say that your vision is much more superficial than you've shown before!

Even if they obtain the secret of the ruins, aren't they afraid of the sanctions from the four great families and the royal family? Moreover, what if the things in the ruins cannot be immediately transformed into combat power? "

Hearing Ling's words, An Yuan, who was sitting in the third seat on the right side of the long table, snorted and started to criticize him with a disdainful tone.

"Your doubts are reasonable, Lord Anyuan. The question you just asked is much smarter than the image you have shown before."

Zero nodded to him politely, and then gave a detailed explanation amid the strange looks of everyone and Anyuan's furious gaze.

“The marquises might not dare to show it out of fear under normal circumstances, but now that the web of fate has made clear revelations, it is enough for them to take a gamble.

One or two marquises cannot compete with the four major families, so they can temporarily unite secretly.

We don’t need too many. As long as four or five marquises who want to go further join forces, they will be enough to compete with any of the four major families.”

“As for the sanctions imposed by the imperial family and the four major families, according to intelligence, the imperial family may have long had the idea of ​​weakening the four major families.

If a certain marquis can really successfully obtain the secret of the ruins, as long as he is willing to share it with the royal family, then the royal family will come forward to help him withstand the pressure from the four major families. "

Zero's tone gradually became higher and more persuasive.

"So, what we need to do is to secretly contact the Marquis of the Empire and 'help' them unite temporarily."

"It's a simple truth. All conflicts originate from the imbalance in the distribution of benefits. So we can completely persuade those who have gained less benefits to unite and attack those who have gained more."

"At that time, the four major families and the marquises will fight among themselves, the small and medium-sized nobles will form an alliance to fight against the rule of the big nobles, the royal family will be busy balancing the intensity of the domestic conflict, and the rebels will run rampant in the country, looting and causing chaos.

By then, how much power will the Empire have left to defend itself from the outside? Will it have to rely on the Professional Academy Alliance, which remains neutral forever?"

As he said this, Ling smiled, but due to the projection, no one could see it.

"The empire's defense is like an extremely strong fortress. But if every brick and stone that makes up the wall has its own ideas... then even the strongest fortress will collapse!"
