Chapter 719: A frank meeting
Kashin was concentrating on recording the meeting contents, his pen tip dancing on the paper quickly, as if he wanted to deeply imprint every word on the paper. His concentration and seriousness made consultants Zaire and Bayan sitting next to him admire him again and again.
They were very surprised by Kashin's behavior, because they did not understand the needs of the family novel industry, and thought that the reason why Sir Kashin was so good at fighting was entirely because he had a deep understanding of the battlefield. Now seeing that he even took notes of the meeting so seriously, they admired his professionalism even more.
At this moment, the door of the conference room was slowly pushed open, and Kabaeva, wearing a white armor and a cape embroidered with gold silk cloud patterns, walked in like a dazzling pearl. Her appearance instantly attracted everyone's attention, and her gorgeous dress was dazzling and eye-catching.
Kabaeva walked to the conference table with a smile on her face. Seeing this, everyone stood up and saluted her. Kabaeva smiled and waved to everyone to sit down, and then said in a gentle tone: "Dear colleagues, there is no need to be polite. Please sit down and talk! The atmosphere of today's meeting is relatively relaxed. It is not an official meeting, so don't be restrained. After we finish talking about business, we will serve wine and meat. You can eat and chat and enjoy this rare time."
After everyone was seated again, Kabaeva, like a wise prophet, began to expound her grand vision for the new order. Her voice was clear and firm, like a nightingale singing in a valley, full of determination and confidence.
She said passionately: "Our goal is to eliminate the church because it is like a cancer that has brought endless suffering and disasters to countries around the world. The existence of the church is not only the root cause of national disasters and disasters, but also makes people live in dire straits, like they are in purgatory, suffering from hunger and unable to live and work in peace."
To achieve this goal, it will be a protracted war, so all parties must work together without distinction. Of course, the Magic Island will undertake the main combat tasks and reshape a new order of world civilization, progress and prosperity dominated by magicians.
These words were like a torch, igniting the passion in the hearts of the magicians. Indeed, the charlatans of the church were like dark clouds covering the world. Only magicians could dispel this haze and lead mankind towards progress...
So the first step is that Kabaeva would never say that there was a problem with the materials and that she was being strangled by the Zaun Empire.
She said righteously that in order to ensure its status as a superpower, the Zaun Empire supported the expansion of the church's armed forces, so that other countries were ignorant and dark and could not compete with it.
Therefore, before we embark on an attack on the church headquarters, we should first find a way to plunge the Zaun Empire into chaos so that it can no longer provide assistance to the church forces.
After all, as the vested interest of the old order, the Zaun Empire's philosophy is contrary to that of the Magic Island.
If we want to govern the world with a completely new system and establish a healthy order, we must suppress those vested interests and form a new ruling force...
The applause was so loud that it seemed to blow the roof off. Kabaeva smiled slightly, took out a delicate kettle from her bosom, took a sip elegantly, and then quietly waited for her fellow magicians below to calm down.
Seeing this, Kashin could not help but nod his head in approval. He knew very well the real reason behind this battle, which was actually to fight for a material called "devil iron".
However, what is unexpected is that Kabaeva can make this seemingly ordinary battle for resources sound so noble.
In fact, the so-called "devil iron" is distributed all over the world, but only the devil iron produced by the Zaun Empire is different, containing a trace element called "earth flame essence". The presence of this trace element makes the devil iron of the Zaun Empire have unique properties and value.
However, due to the need for commercial confidentiality, most magicians do not know the specific composition of "Earth Flame Essence".
Only a few high-ranking officials and a few core members of the alchemy laboratory knew the inside story. And all this was thanks to the gag order issued by Vita.
Master Kabaeva waited for a few minutes and continued with a smile: "My fellow comrades, with so few of us, we can't actually shake the Zaun Empire in the slightest. After investigation, we found that their magic power is very strong! There are about one million registered knights, not including two million regular troops.
The total number of magicians is 300,000. Due to the vast territory and abundant magical material resources, they can afford to support such a large number of magicians..."
These data are breathtaking...
The magicians they have mobilized now are only a few thousand people. How can they possibly fight against such a powerful organization? Therefore, everyone, including Kashen, is looking forward to what will happen next.
Especially some magic associations of small countries are starting to back off. The regular army plus registered knights exceed the total population of the small countries. Why are they still fighting like this?
Kabaeva knew that they had many concerns. When she saw that everyone present was somewhat depressed and there was no possibility of victory, how could they be so motivated!
"Alright! More people may not determine victory or defeat! At this moment, the regular army of the Chester Kingdom has been at war with the Zaun Empire, and has expanded its territory by hundreds of miles. Although it caught Zaun off guard, the country is too big and will not react. When they send out troops, the real fierce battle will begin..."
At this time, the conference room was dead silent. Everyone held their breath and waited quietly for Kabaeva to continue speaking. They knew very well that if Chester, which Kabaeva was talking about next, was a big country, then compared with Zaun, its size might be only one-fifth of Zaun. In this case, the other party might not take Zaun seriously at all. After all, the gap in strength was so obvious that it was almost impossible to pose a substantial threat to the Zaun Empire.
However, just as everyone was thinking about it, Kabaeva suddenly spoke up: "Okay, it seems that what I said just now scared everyone! However, I will not deceive you with false data. Although Zaun is powerful, it is not invincible! We must first put the difficulties in front of us, and then find a way to solve this dilemma. This is the right way. I will not lie to you and say that the enemy is vulnerable at the beginning. That will not help solve the problem at all!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the conference room exploded. Someone asked loudly: "Master, what should we do?" Then, another person echoed: "Yes, Master, under normal circumstances, we are definitely not able to defeat them, especially those war eagle trainers, who are a huge threat to us! Master, please tell us clearly, how should we act..."
For a moment, everyone was talking, and all kinds of voices were intertwined. Zaire and Kashin were whispering to each other. Others were also discussing countermeasures, especially the representatives of the Magic Association of those small countries, who really didn't want to get involved in this fight.
