Necromancer: Becoming a God from a Lord

"The Spellcasters Federation is an ally of our Spark City. If the Lord of the City allows them to set up a branch in the North, I think we should inform them of the alien enemy information of the [Continental Center] as soon as possible." Reiner's tone was cold and rigid, and he was clamped with The strange voice of metal friction sound said, "After all, in the future, they are very likely to be the allies we can win over in the first place. Those mage battle groups entrenched in the Evil Moon Mountains are a stronger force to defend against the enemy."

[More powerful] The four words immediately stinged Pierce's nerves. He raised his eyebrows and sang a rare opposite to his "old colleague". "Strong aid? Can they counterattack to Xieyue Mountain today North’s record is still a situation created by the anti-magic weapons we support. Mr. General Manager, do you really think that those fancy combat mages can compare to the loyal elite soldiers under the command of the adults?”

The two city lords' direct senior management suddenly started to argue, which made the atmosphere in the entire conference hall a little awkward. Fortunately, the chief consultant Asdaren stood up at the right time to reconcile, "The strength we have must be better than those traditional and conservative mage warfare. The group, but they are not completely without advantages, at least in terms of flexibility and mobility…”

Those scout mages who have been wandering on the front line of life and death for many years and have rich experience in fighting with the demons are indeed comparable to the top special combat soldiers in a sense, and even the bloody warriors under Harvey himself dare not defeat them lightly.

"In terms of flexibility and mobility, we are not inferior to those combat mages when equipped with military off-road magic motorcycles, right?" Wo, who is the battalion commander of the first battalion of the North Frontier Army and also the captain of the special operations squad, is he?" Yes, it is rare to speak hard to justify your reputation.

When Chris heard this, he couldn't help but interrupt, "There are always magic bikes that cannot be crossed, and you can't fly like them..."

"I...I'm just giving an example, and let's talk about it... Not everyone in the Mage Team of the Federation is high-level, but our special team has a full range of magic motorcycles."

Christ was speechless and closed his mouth and looked up at the sky.

When Harvey came back to his senses from his thoughts of refining steel with Shadow Disintegration, he realized that the atmosphere at the meeting was a bit stalemate. He quickly clapped his hands and said, "Let's have been on the go for a while. We have been arguing for a whole morning, so let's eat something here. Then discuss."

The servant received his instructions and pushed the dining carts from outside the conference hall to bring the freshly baked dessert fruits and tea drinks to the table, everyone was placing their stomachs, and went to the balcony to smoke cigarettes. The tension suddenly eased.

Since Harvey revealed to officials that the Federation requested the establishment of a branch in Spark City, the atmosphere has been a little bit wrong at the work meeting in recent days.

Harvey can clearly see that the officials under his command have already vaguely divided factions. The Executive Office led by Reiner is a gentle and conservative style. They follow the talent introduction concept that Harvey always adheres to, believing that as long as it is not an enemy. Forces, all organizations that can be used for themselves should maintain good alliances and subtly use "sugar-coated shells" in close cooperation and exchanges to slowly and completely assimilate the other party into its own camp.

Advanced magic technology, alchemy creation beyond the times, comfortable and convenient living environment, generous rewards and welfare benefits... All the things in these Spark City that are different from the outside world can be their bargaining chips for attracting talents and labor. Compared with The destructive weapons of real guns and live ammunition in the Northern Army and the "sugar-coated cannonballs" held in the Executive Hall are the weapons that most people have no ability to resist.

This kind of gentle and inclusive style to the outside world naturally attracted the favor of Chris and other alchemists who were originally from the Alchemy Secret Association and had a deep connection with the Federation. Therefore, when the Executive Office implemented a certain measure, the Alchemy Laboratory General It is the first time to stand on their side.

The Northern Army represented by Pierce, as well as the Defense Forces and the Police Department, were radical and xenophobic. The army itself was a closely-knit armed organization. In addition, most officers from all walks of life were from wastelands or were refugees or untouchables in the southern border. Naturally, it excludes those power classes that have always been high, whether they are ordinary Southern nobles or arrogant Federation spellcasters.

The necromancers who have been discriminated against by orthodox spellcasters in the past should have stood on the side of the army, which surprised Harvey - the spellcasters in Spark City actually picked up a group with soldiers composed of mortals. It's true that I saw a ghost in broad daylight.

However, it is completely understandable. After all, the Academy of Magical Sciences where the Necromancers are located is currently leading the teaching work of the Territory Spellcaster Academy. This group of discriminatory people naturally do not want the Federation to gain a foothold in Spark City and squeeze out the interests of their faction. and a right to speak.

Unfortunately, the radical faction led by the army has been dealing with others with guns for a long time, but their understanding of personnel relations and current political situation is far less than that of the Executive Office. The only ones who can reconcile Asdaren and Duncan are the leaders of the city lord. Some of the time they are on the wall. During passionate debates at the conference, radicals are often refuted by conservatives and retreat step by step, and finally they have to hold back their anger.

As long as Harvey doesn't make the decision, today's scene is probably similar to before, and it's just another unilateral debate.

It is normal for factional struggles to exist in a large political organization. Harvey had seen this many times when the Spellcaster Forum was established. Even in virtual "Internet forums", people would form groups and exclude others because of their conflicting positions and ideas, not to mention reality.

This is also a simple means for those in power to check and balance the power of their subordinates, as long as they do not indulge or favor one side.

However, the current situation is different from the past. The information that the exploration team encountered the skinned aliens in the north expansion made Harvey feel nervous that he was attacked from all sides, but he did not know the true details of the enemy. The secular nobles and the church in the south did not know when to withdraw their hands and start to cause trouble for themselves, the mage lord who occupied a large area of ​​Saint Valen.

In this special period, Harvey felt that it was natural to let the "militant faction" have the upper hand, which would be more beneficial to the situation.

...

After a short recess, Harvey took a sip of tea after returning to his seat, cleared his throat and said seriously: "Regarding whether to accept the Federation to establish a branch in Spark City..."

The opening was the highlight of today's debate. All the officials involved immediately sat up straight, tilted their heads and looked at the highest authority in the territory with burning eyes.

No mistakes, one post, one content, one 6, one book, one bar!

"I think the Federation's traditional branch operation model is too backward and is not conducive to developing a close cooperative relationship with us...I plan to re-establish a [New Federation] in Spark City, abandoning the past habit of only accepting orthodox spellcasters - alchemical life, blood warriors, alchemists, marginalized spellcasting factions, and even alien races that maintain friendly relations with us should all be included and treated equally."
