Master Tongtian

Chapter 380 It’s too much! (33)

One o'clock.

Rosen brought a group of Baisha City's great mages back to the VIP reception room of the Governor's Mansion.

"Sit down, masters."

The various archmages looked at each other, unsure of what Rosen was thinking.

But they had been busy for most of the night, were tired, hungry, and thirsty, and their magic power had been sealed by the extraordinary, so they had no choice at all.

At this time, they resigned themselves to their fate and sat down on the leather chairs.

"Come here, serve some good tea to all the archmages, and some snacks to fill your stomach."

Several maids walked in sleepily, made fragrant tea for the archmage, and brought plates of smoked fish, bacon and other snacks.

With the extraordinary seal, these great mages are just ordinary people.

Rosen was not worried about their resistance, so he sat down across from everyone.

"After a busy night, all masters must be exhausted. Come, have something to eat and drink."

Now that they have all fallen into this situation, the great mages are no longer reserved and simply let go, eating and drinking as they should.

Rosen didn't bother him and just waited patiently.

When everyone was done eating and drinking, he looked at a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face and beard in the crowd, and smiled lightly.

"Master Godel, I heard your report at the university meeting. I didn't expect that in just a few months, we would become enemies. It's really regrettable."

Seeing that Rosen still remembered him, Godel was not surprised and sighed softly.

"Nothing to regret."

"In college, everyone is a mage who pursues magic, but mages also have earthly interests to fight for. It's just a coincidence that our paths conflict."

But having said that, excluding conflicts of interest and talking about character alone, Godel felt that Rosen was pretty good, at least he didn't humiliate himself when he had the upper hand.

Rosen also took a piece of dried smoked fish and took a casual bite, asking questions knowingly.

"Then may I know what the specific conflict is?"

As soon as he mentioned this, Godel snorted coldly.

"You sold guns to Raven, which led to the defeat of the White Sand City Marine Corps. At least six thousand soldiers died and more than ten thousand soldiers were seriously injured. This is the biggest conflict!"

Rosen looked stunned and immediately asked again.

"But if the Ocean Legion doesn't invade Raging Waves City first, Archmage Raven's Storm Alliance Army won't counterattack for no reason, right?"

"And the actions of the Marine Legion are strictly speaking treason."

Gold was stunned for a moment and had no words to refute, because Rosen was right.

Rosen saw the divine iron core carried by Gold again. As soon as he thought about it, the core was in his hand. After observing it carefully, he smiled slightly.

"It actually has to be roasted on the fire, interesting~"

Godel's face darkened: "I admit that you have superb magical achievements, but there is no need to humiliate us."

Rosen immediately put away his smile and said sternly: "Let me tell you straight, my White Whale Island will remain neutral in all future wars in the East. No matter who comes to me to buy a gun, I will sell it."

"I know that the major lords will definitely dislike my behavior and will send various people to deal with me and my weapon refining workshop. But since I dare to sell, I naturally have countermeasures to deal with the attack."

Godel recalled his previous experience and sighed.

"You won, you have the right to say so. But if you do this, we people from the East will be killed in rivers of blood."

After saying this, the other archmages also looked at Rosen with hatred.

Rosen asked again: "Am I really the one who caused the rivers of blood to flow in the Eastern Territory? I'm afraid it's the greedy big lords, right?"

"These big lords are greedy and want to covet the Storm Crown, but they hide behind and don't take part in the battle. They only send a group of civilians to charge them. In the end, it's the civilians who die, but it's the big lords who benefit."

"And now, a group of civilians have worked hard for the great lord and been captured by their opponents, but they are still trying their best to protect the great lord's reputation. Don't you think it's sad?"

The great mages were all startled by this.

Godel frowned and said: "The lords have the right to do this. This is their inherent authority."

"No, their authority comes from the Duke of Storms and from God. But now that they have betrayed the Duke and God, this authority is no longer there!"

"Now they are just a group of greedy and cowardly conspirators!"

In a place like the Eastern Territory, the belief in the Golden God is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. If it weren't for the ridiculous behavior of the Storm Duke, he would never have ended up in this situation.

And even at this point, no one dares to take advantage of Storm Crown. At most, they just want to take advantage of Raging Wave City and take the opportunity to get rid of the suppression of Storm Duke.

So Godel shouted back.

"No one covets Storm Crown. We just want the Duke to pay back the money, but the Duke chooses to default on the debt!"

Rosen smiled: "Master, most ambitions are not innate, they are inflated little by little!"

"And you also used the wrong wording. The Duke owes money to the great lord, and it has nothing to do with you."

Godel immediately shook his head.

"No, it has something to do with me. I have 50,000 kronor in the Deep Blue Bank, but I can't withdraw it because the Duke defaulted on his account."

Rosen immediately retorted.

"You are wrong! The contract partner for your deposit is Deep Blue Bank. After you deposit the money and pay the custody fee, the bank is obliged to keep the deposit for you."

"But the bank lent the money to the Duke without your permission, resulting in the money being unrecoverable. This is the responsibility of the bank and the lord, and it has nothing to do with you."

"Your lord should be responsible for his own mistakes, instead of passing his mistakes on to you and deducting your money to make up for his losses."

"So, the one who really refuses to pay back the debt is your lord!"

"And you have neither the obligation nor the need to take responsibility for your lord's mistakes, right?"

This is not what Rosen said randomly, it is a fact obtained after careful investigation.

These days, the banks are not perfect, the lords are ridiculously powerful, and there are many cases where depositors' money is used to lend money, leading to thunderstorms.

"."

All the mages looked at each other, speechless to refute.

They are all logic mages, and they are the most logical. In fact, they all know in their hearts that Rosen is right, and they have even had similar thoughts before.

It's just that the authority of the five major families suppressed their thinking, making them afraid to think deeply.

But Rosen had no scruples and spoke directly.

Godel pursed his lips and wanted to refute, but in the end he couldn't find a point to refute.

After a long time, he sighed.

"Things are not that simple. If I ask the lord for money, the lord will only blame the Duke for his fault. And my whole family lives in Baisha City, so it is impossible for me to completely fall out with the lord."

Other civilian archmages also nodded in agreement.

"Yes, your words are logically correct, but when people live in this world, there are all kinds of entangled interests, which are impossible to calculate."

"Even if we know it is the lord's fault, we still have to protect his interests. Only when his interests are protected can we get our money back."

Finally, a great mage asked this question.

"Master Rosen, what exactly do you want to say?"

Rosen laughed: "Finally we got to the point."

He looked around at the group of archmages who were born from common people and minor nobles, and spoke his thoughts word by word.

"I admire the knowledge of all the masters very much, and I very much hope that you will join me on Beluga Island and build a large floating city with me."

"."

Without waiting for anyone to answer, Rosen continued: "I know you are worried about your family. It doesn't matter. I will send someone to pick up your family and friends now."

"I promise that my Beluga Island will not only keep your family away from disputes, but the treatment I will provide will definitely be twice as good as what you get in White Sand City!"

"If you have money in Deep Blue Bank that you cannot withdraw, don't worry. Just send a transfer statement stating that the account will be transferred to the Islands Development Bank."

"Then you go directly to Islands Bank to withdraw money. You don't need to do anything else. I will go to Deep Blue Bank to collect the debt on your behalf."

The archmages were unable to confront the lord due to their limited abilities, but Rosen could easily do so.

When the other party comes to him to buy a gun, just add an extra sum.

As soon as these words came out, all the great mages looked happy.

What they had saved in Deep Blue Bank was the hard-earned money they had saved for most of their lives. It felt very bad to be stuck like this.

Now that Rosen is willing to help them out, it is naturally a great thing.

Rosen continued.

"And our White Whale Island has the most advanced technology in the entire Golden Land and the best endless mana core. In our White Whale Island, such a core is garbage."

While talking, Rosen took out the endless mana core for his own use and put it together with the core of Baisha City.

Comparing the two sides, one is elegant and beautiful, just like a creation of God, while the other is rough and wild, with some vegetation ash on the surface, and is almost the same as the stones on the ground.

The archmages were immediately moved, even Godel was no exception.

He was born as a commoner, and even though he had reached the pinnacle of achievement, he still had to succumb to the level 7 archmage and had to personally risk his life to get treatment.

I didn't think it was a big deal because everyone does it.

But now there is such a strong man who is willing to help him solve all the troubles in the world and ask him to focus on studying the great floating city that fascinates countless mages!

I was very, very excited, and subconsciously wanted to agree.

However, the pride of the people of the East, the reserve of the peak mage, and the moral concepts he had been instilled in him since he was a child constantly blocked his thoughts, making it difficult for him to speak.

Rosen felt that the heat was almost there, so he kept up his efforts.

"Masters, I am indeed from the North, but I am even more from the Golden Land."

"In my mind, the difference between the North and the East is only geographical, not racial."

"I have published many important magic papers in the past. I believe that my results have played a certain role in promoting the development of magic in the Golden Land."

This is true, but Rosen's statement is greatly modest.

More than just a little bit, it simply advances the logic system a big step forward.

Rosen continued: "If I was stuck on the difference between the Eastern Territory and the Northern Territory, I should hide this conclusion and let everything rot in my stomach. But is this right?!"

All the masters shook their heads.

That is naturally wrong.

If everyone hid some good things as family heirlooms, then it would be a blessing if the magic of the Golden Land could not go backwards, let alone develop forward.

Looking at the various archmages, the hostility on their faces has completely dissipated.

Rosen knew almost that.

"Masters, you don't have to do anything. Just nod and provide a list and address. My people will set off to Baisha City to pick you up immediately!"

"Before the sun rises, your families will be reunited on Moby Dick Island."

With that said, he handed the pen and paper to Godel.

When the words reached this point, Godel let out a long sigh, took the pen and paper, and wrote down the address and names of his family members.

He has a small family, including his wife, children, and apprentices, a total of 13.

As soon as he relented, the other 13 archmages who followed his lead also started writing.

Finished quickly.

Rosen took the list and looked at it carefully. The total of 14 masters, family members and direct apprentices amounted to about 130 people. Three large suspension vehicles could pick them all out.

"Don't worry, masters, I will arrange to pick you up now."

Knowing that the other party must be confused, he just started doing it without explaining.

In front of the 14 masters, he took out the communication gem and began to arrange to pick up people one by one.

Beluga Island is 650 meters away from Baisha City. There are three relay signal stations in the middle, so you can directly contact the intelligence operators in Baisha City, and then ask them to arrange a pick-up.

There are also several secret suspension vehicle bases outside Baisha City. On weekdays, suspension vehicles help transport various commodities. When needed, they can also be used to transport people.

As long as the secret operators in Baisha City pick the people up at the secret stronghold and bring them back directly.

A group of masters watched and listened, and their expressions gradually changed.

Godel couldn't help but ask: "Count, is this a magic wave weapon used for long-distance communication?"

Rosen shook his head: "It's a long-distance communication weapon, but it has nothing to do with mana waves. It uses another set of theories."

Then without further explanation, he continued to sign up.

A group of great mages looked at each other, feeling more and more that the owner of the White Whale Island had amazing methods.

Not only are his magical achievements astonishingly high, but his tentacles are also astonishingly long.

Judging from his appearance, he seemed to know every move in the entire Eastern Territory.

He even has a close relationship with the extraordinary mermaid lord, which makes people feel like this guy is omnipotent.

Anyone with eyes can understand that following such a lord obviously has a better future than following the five major families.

About two hours later, I received a response from the secret operators of Baisha City.

"Lord, everyone has picked up the hover car and has taken off to Beluga Island. We will arrive in one and a half hours."

"Thank you for your hard work, please be safe."

After closing the communication, Rosen looked at each of the archmages, and found that they looked at him with a hint of awe, even the peak archmage Godel.

Rosen immediately knew in his heart that these archmages had been conquered by him.

He smiled and said: "If you are sleepy, I will arrange for you to rest. If you are worried about your family, then wait here for a while. They should arrive at about 5 o'clock in the morning."

Godel immediately shook his head: "Let's just sit and wait. We always feel uneasy if we don't see anyone."

"Then I will wait with you all."

An hour and a half is not long.

Not even an hour and a half later, three large, boxy hover cars landed in the Lord's Mansion Square.

After the car door opened, male and female passengers with bewildered faces got out one by one.

When the archmages saw that it was indeed their own family members, they immediately let go of their worries.

Godel also saw his family, including his wife and son, his gray-haired parents, and three personal apprentices who had devoted their efforts to training for many years.

He suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and no longer had any worries.

He smiled and waved to everyone in the group, then turned around and asked Rosen.

"Earl, do you really plan to build a large floating city?"

Rosen looked at the archmages in front of him who were reunited with their families, and answered softly.

"In fact, I have invested 3 million crowns, and this is obviously not enough. Not only does it require countless money, but it also requires countless talents."

"That's why I have to amass wealth in such an annoying way."

Godel was originally very unhappy with Rosen's way of making war fortune, but after hearing this, he was shocked and couldn't help but stare at Rosen, trying to see through his sincerity.

Rosen looked at him without blinking.

"Master Godel, those short-sighted and greedy great lords should be eliminated by the times."

"As long as I'm here, they will become poorer and poorer, and they will lose their glory the more they fight."

"Until one day, when our great floating city rises to the sky and blocks out the sky, there will be an indelible monument built by our mortal hands in the history books of the Golden Land!"

"The glory lost in the East due to the war will be restored in an instant, making all mortals look up."

Gold was shocked. After a long silence, he let out a sigh of relief.

"The count's courage is truly beyond this world!"

He was convinced.
