It is undeniable that the two campaigns mentioned earlier to lead the large-scale development were really hard and tiring in the early stages. Many people could not persist at all, gave up halfway, and ran back to their hometowns to live their original lives.

But most of these people regretted it a few years later, because those who went with them and persisted have gained a new and better life.

Some people who have missed it or failed to catch up hope to gain a new life of their own from this major development.

This will be a new round of racial and population integration for the Eternal Night Army.

We have deep confidence in this from top to bottom.

Not only do they have rich experience in this matter, they also believe that those Huayu Plateau people cannot refuse a better way of life.

In this area, they are definitely doing much better than the original ruling class of Huayu Plateau.

Not to mention pushing the time forward twenty or thirty years, even if it is more than ten years, the annexation of a military leader will definitely cause a major earthquake in the entire Ashan continent.

Nowadays, it has not caused much waves. Except for a burst of celebration within the Yongye Army, other forces have responded mediocrely. They have neither sent congratulatory letters nor excessive condemnations.

Except in the eyes of many people, it is only a matter of time before the Yongye Army annexes the Huayu Plateau. The strengths of both sides are there. After any force develops to a certain level, outward expansion will become an instinct.

Then their eyes were attracted by another thing - the Holy See of Saint Ether was officially reorganized into the Saint Ether Empire, and Pope Saint George became the founding emperor of the empire.

The interests involved in this matter are far greater than the annexation of an isolated flowery plateau.

This means that the rights of a quarter of the territory of Ashan continent are facing a new reshuffle. In order to preserve their rights or to obtain more power, everyone is racking their brains and making calculations.

Including the secret coven of witches who were driven to the North Island of the Twin Peninsula.

They desperately want to take back the South Island from the Holy Ether Empire.

They know this is their last chance.

If we cannot take back the South Island of the Twin Peninsula before the Holy See Empire has a firm foothold.

Not only will they not have the chance to take it back in the future, it will also be difficult for them to keep Beidao.

After dealing with the Holy See for so many years, the witches in the Conclave know very well that the fanatical believers of the Holy See are a group of lunatics, and Pope St. George is the lunatic among lunatics.

Before the Holy See had complete control, it had already formed the Sword of Saint Ether and waged war against them for hundreds of years.

Not to mention that now that he has a unified political power, he will not allow them to peek from his side.

I will absolutely spare no effort to eradicate them, even if I have to pay a price that is inconsistent with the harvest.

It won't be long before a new decisive battle will break out between the Conclave of Witches and the Holy See Empire. By then, either you will die or I will die.

Many people on both sides have similar realizations and are preparing for this matter.

…

Wanta Mountain City.

White Tower.

After Pope St. George announced the establishment of the Holy See Empire, it was the eve of Archduke Christian's official surrender to the Eternal Night Army.

The main leaders of the Witches' Conclave were summoned.

"What is the purpose of the president convening a top-secret meeting at short notice to call us all back from so far away? My ocean exploration has just gained some insights!" Elder Cynthia, the supreme commander of the witch fleet, revealed a touch of excitement in her words.

dissatisfied.

She is different from most of the secret meeting elders who are resident in Wanta Mountain City. She spends most of her time floating on the sea. It is not easy to participate in a secret meeting between witches.

In addition, due to limited communication conditions at sea, she did not participate in most secret meetings, and she accidentally caught a cold from such secret meetings.

Now that things are going on, being urged to come back by eight hundred miles of urgent letters, it is inevitable that I will feel dissatisfied.

"You can sit still. The Holy See has completely broken up and replaced the Lancelot royal family. We have no last breath. Of course, we have to make plans for our future. You and your fleet are also meeting in secret.

If the part of the secret meeting on land is lost, your fleet will be rootless duckweed floating on the sea, will fall into continuous weakness, and will die sooner or later." Elder Sophia comforted on the side.

road.

One of the two is responsible for the most powerful force of the Witch Conclave, and the other is responsible for the intelligence department. They have more opportunities for cooperation and contact. Their relationship is closer than that between other elders, and they naturally speak much more casually.

"What did I think?" Elder Cynthia shrugged. "When that unlucky Laurie fell from the air and died for unknown reasons, the Lancelot royal family was already dead in name only. It was only a matter of time before it was replaced by the Holy See.

question.

No, it must be that idiot Lowry who believed the slander of St. George, the hungry wolf that eats people without spitting out bones, and when he fully cooperated with the Holy See, today's fate was already doomed. Everything is his own fault, and we only indirectly

of victims.

We have reached a consensus on this matter a long time ago. What I am doing is preparing the safest escape route for you and me. You should give me enough support so that I can do my job with peace of mind. As for

Just hold the secret meeting, and when you have the result, just notify me, just like before.

I have never expressed any objection to this matter, nor have I ever refused to implement your decision."

"Elder Cynthia in my memory has always been heroic and never backed down. Why is she so focused on the evacuation plan this time? Could it be that your fleet was already beaten in the last war and is scared." Witches' Conclave

Elder Patricia, the leader of the hawks, asked in a sinister tone.

"What did you say?" Elder Cynthia's fiery temper was revealed at the drop of a hat. Her long blue hair moved automatically without wind, and a surging tidal aura surged through her body. "Old guy, don't be so weird here. The last war

The defeat was a defeat on the part of the army. What does it have to do with our fleet? Even if we are held accountable, we cannot be held responsible.

As for the big evacuation plan, you also held a top-secret meeting to discuss and decide together. I was not invited to participate last time.

I'm just implementing your decision.

If you were dissatisfied with the evacuation plan, why didn't you raise it during the last top secret meeting?

Now you are saying weird things to me, an executor?

Aren’t you slapping yourself in the face?”

"Of course I raised objections. I raised them during the last secret meeting, and I will raise them again this time." Patricia said with an angry face, "Be timid before fighting. No wonder we have repeatedly failed in the war with the Holy See.

, I think the root cause is here, because you are afraid of death and sacrifice. In every war, you cannot risk everything, and you will naturally be suppressed by the enemy."

"Elder Patricia is oversimplifying the war." Before Elder Cynthia could speak again, Elder Sophia retorted, "The courage you mentioned is just a part of war, including personnel supplies, logistical equipment, external

Which one does not play a vital role in the general environment? The important members of our secret society are limited in number due to their own bloodline, and ordinary people have a very weak sense of identity with us.

In this regard, the faith of the Holy See has the power to confuse people's hearts. A little show of miraculous power can make those stupid farmers become their fanatical believers and raise their weapons against us."

"I don't agree with Elder Sophia's view." Elder Irene couldn't help but join in the debate. "The bloodline mentioned by the elder limits the development and growth of our secret society. This threshold is not ordinary.

What is determined by others is determined by ourselves.

Because we unconsciously think that we are superior to others and that it is those of us who stand on top who are pushing the world forward.

Intentionally or unintentionally, the number and power of ordinary people are ignored.

We forget that we are the minority in this world.

Don’t deny it, there is a living example right in front of us.”

"The example of Elder Irene, isn't it the leader of the Yongye Army?" Elder Sophia asked rhetorically.

"That's right, they are the leaders of the Yongye Army." Elder Eileen nodded, "Looking at their rise and development, it is a victory for ordinary people."

"Hahaha..." Elder Sophia laughed loudly, "Elder Eileen seems to have given an example that is completely opposite to his own conclusion. In my opinion, the rise and development of the Yongye Army has always been controlled by a few people.

In his hands, or more accurately, it has always been in the hands of one person, the young lord.

You analyze their development trajectories in detail.

Did the expansion and development of the Yongye Army Leader have nothing to do with that young lord?

Including this latest time, didn't it also start when the young lord woke up from his deep sleep.

In the past five years, they have at best maintained their situation without shrinking, but they have not made rapid progress like they are now.

At best, most people are attached to her.

The decision made by our secret meeting to use warlocks to lead ordinary people was not wrong, but there was no outstanding figure like Sean among us who played a key leading role.

We failed to bring Ms. Elena and Lord Sean back to the secret meeting at the beginning, and letting them go their own way was the biggest failure of our secret meeting.

I remember Elder Eileen was very helpful in letting things go."

The accusation in Sophia's words was clear on the surface.

The implication is that if Elena and her son Sean were brought back to the Conclave of Witches and started to be trained by them, everything Sean created should belong to the Conclave of Witches, and their situation would be greatly improved.

"The theory of cause and effect mentioned by Elder Sophia is simply not true. Of course, it was Lord Sean who became the leader of the Yongye Army. It was also the leader of the Yongye Army, and his unique exit at that time, that made him what he was. If it weren't for General

He stays in the Andis Crater and among the Andis people. Do you think Lord Sean still has a chance to rise?"

Eileen asked in an equally aggressive manner, "Don't put your own responsibilities on assumptions. Everyone here has an unshirkable responsibility for the secret meeting to be in its current situation, including myself. We must face one point squarely. In order to

Only then can we find a better way out.”

Sophia snorted, "I would like to know where the better way out that Elder Irene said is."

Erin answered without hesitation: "It's time for us to face ourselves, figure out our own strengths and weaknesses, and position ourselves.

Compared with the Holy See, our faith is not pure.

Compared to the Warlock Alliance, our academic component is not specialized.

Compared to noble families, our governance methods are imperfect.
