Chapter 403 - The Peace Conference
Lei Luo and Allie looked at each other, having just gone through the first baptism of life and death.
Both of them were at the emotional peak of their lives.
It was in this context that Lei Luo made his promise to Allie.
It should be said that, in a way, Lei Luo"s words were somewhat impulsive, but Lei Luo used his life to fulfill his impulsive promise.
A day later, in the first province at the imperial capital where the senate was...
Ever since the Black Knights" rebellion, the No. 1 conference hall, which had been sealed up had been reopened.
The people gathered here were the princes who actually controlled the fate of the entire empire.
Historians generally believed that this conference was the last chance for mankind to peacefully solve the problem of the magic conductor.
Therefore, this meeting was called the "Peaceful fall" meeting.
The beginning of the meeting was inaugurated with Calasio"s introduction.
This middle-aged man, who relied on his family"s bloodline to obtain the status of a feudal lord, was now in his fifties. It should be said that his talent was not too bad, but he did not have any interest in learning.
Over the years, he ate, drank, played, indulged in extravagance and debauchery. To this day, he was a completely mediocre person.
He used his hands and feet and his extremely exaggerated expressions and actions to help explain what had happened to his non-nominal subordinates.
Most of the people present were disdainful of his exaggeration and cowardice, but their faces were full of sympathy and deep affection, and because of this, Calasio felt a sense of accomplishment.
After Calasio finished his demonstration, Gao Ze was the first to speak.
"As the core of the empire, the magic shooters of our fifth province have already been cleared below the danger line. In that case, I personally suggest that we make a prompt decision and immediately notify the alliance leader of the entire empire in secret to mobilize the army and deal with the problem of the magic shooters of the entire empire in an extreme amount of time."
It was obvious that Gao Ze had already investigated the magic conductor data of the alliance that he could influence. He was confident that he had the ability to control it.
"I object. Although the magic conductors of the fifth province have almost been dealt with, what about the other provinces? If they start fighting in such a hurry, the magic conductors will definitely have a huge riot."
"Everyone, please don"t forget that, to a certain extent, the magic conductors have the ability to replicate."
"Even if magic conductors are at a disadvantage in certain aspects, their terrifying ability to reproduce will offset all the disadvantages. If they really cause a ruckus, the situation of the riot from back then will be repeated."
"Griffin almost immediately voiced his opposition, even though Griffin had already thought of ways to hint to the alliance leaders and suzerains that they should consider reducing the number of magic conductors."
"But his subordinates, who are also full of the desire to expand, have produced too many magic conductors in large quant.i.ties in the past few decades in order to expand production. Even if the production has shrunk in the past few years, the total number is still extremely shocking."
"Then are you trying to say that we should allow the suzerains to continue producing magic conductors?"
"Do you know that there are millions of new magic conductors in the empire every day? Who knows, there might be an unprecedented great uprising."
With these two people as representatives, the meeting room was immediately divided into two factions.
They were caught in a long argument, and only three people remained silent from the beginning.
One was Ulysses, the other was the honorable King Papafilin, and the other was the Knight King Graham.
When the argument reached the end, Gao Ze said loudly, "It"s meaningless to keep arguing like this. Let"s just vote."
As soon as he said this, everyone quieted down.
"Everyone has been arguing for so long, but our most honorable king of glory hasn"t said a word. Why don"t we invite the king to say a few words?"
The Knight King Graham, who had been closing his eyes and meditating with his beard, opened his eyes at this time.
He threw out this sentence.
Papafilin seemed to be a little surprised to hear Graham say this.
He first glanced at Graham indifferently then turned his gaze to Ulysses.
"I"m not the only one in the entire meeting room who hasn"t said a word."
"Although Prince Ulysses is young, his reputation as being extremely intelligent has already spread throughout the empire. We old fellows might as well be humble and listen to the opinions of the young people."
Hearing Papafilin"s words, Morse could not help but show some displeasure on his face.
Meanwhile, Papafilin"s words also made Ulysses feel very surprised.
The reason why he did not speak was not because he was arrogant and thought that he was amazing.
It was because he knew that there were not many people who were inferior to him in terms of intelligence.
It was only because everyone had their own ulterior motives that they would act so mediocre at the meeting table.
Thus, he had been studying silently for the past few hours.
But now that Papafilin had said so and since everyone"s eyes were on him, it was impossible for him to remain silent.
After pondering for a moment, Ulysses stood up and bowed to everyone present.
"Seniors, in my opinion, I think we can issue the senate order, the "magic guide preferential treatment law," which states that all magic guides must have the same food, clothing, and other conditions as before and can not be changed. As long as we do this, then 99% of the magic guides will not cause trouble."
At this point, Gao Ze continued, "Although there is only a one percent chance, there are 65 million magic guides who can give birth. Moreover, the reason we allow them to give birth is precisely because these magic guides have to carry out more complicated work. Their thoughts are also more complicated. They are the elites among the magic guides. What should we do with these people?"
Ulysses bowed to Gao Ze before replying, "I think we can let them return to human society and become a part of it."
"This is a very good suggestion, but I feel that this is an impossible task."
Papafilin finally spoke. Everyone"s gaze naturally focused on him.
"First of all, for a long time, many people no longer see magic conductors as humans but as beasts."
"There are many such fundamentalist lords. This is no longer the era of the empire, and the senate does not have the authority to order the lords."
"Even if we issue such an order, the lords might not follow it."
"I believe that when that time comes, there will be endless cases of people secretly torturing and killing magic conductor Ke Yu."
"A fox mourns the death of a rabbit. It is difficult for the surviving magic guide Ke Yu to not feel fear."
