Mage? Spell Engineer!.

Chapter 487 What do you want?
Outside the palace, the guards watched as the rioters lit torches. There were even a few mule carts pulling in beer and bread, which were distributed as orderly as possible to the vanguard members on the front line.

The guards and the governor of the city hall were amazed when they saw this strange phenomenon. Shouldn't these unruly people just rob? How could they be so orderly, with one group eating and another on guard, and even passing food and drinks around? These rioters...are not in chaos at all!
Could it be that they are professional traitors?

For a moment, both sides were relatively calm again, and the guards' stomachs and throats made rumbling sounds.

After the mule carts left and everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, a leader kicked an empty wine barrel away, using it as a signal to resume shouting: "We want to see the king!" "Let that old turtle out!" "Or let us in!" The rioters, who had obviously received supplies, shouted even louder and more forcefully.

You continue working right after eating. This is not only professional but also very ethical!

The captain of the guard could no longer bear it. He approached the consul carefully and whispered, "They are playing tricks on us! As long as you give the order, we will immediately open fire and defeat these unruly people!"

The governor did not want to take the responsibility. He vaguely felt that there was more to these "professional players" than meets the eye. Moreover, judging by the tone of the current newspaper media, if he dared to order the shooting of these people tonight, he would be severely criticized on the front page of tomorrow's article.

If he really killed someone, in the eyes of the consul, he would have killed his own career.

So he insisted on waiting for the king's order, and the matter dragged on like this. The patience of both sides was exhausted bit by bit, and they were finally on the verge of accidental firing and loss of control.

"Let us in!" "Get out of here!"

When the volume of both sides was about to reach the maximum, the world suddenly became quiet. The thousands of people in front of the palace could not understand what was happening. They panicked at first and thought they were deaf, but soon they realized from the confused expressions of the people around them that they were not the only ones who were suddenly enveloped in absolute silence.

Crackling. A soft sound announced that everyone's hearing had been restored, and then a huge ball of light floated from the palace, illuminating the open space in front of the palace like daylight. When everyone got used to the sudden brightness, His Majesty the King had already appeared under the ball of light.

He was expressionless and alone, and at least in the eyes of ordinary people, there were no three invisible red-robed wizards floating beside him.

King Albert took out the improvised document like a puppet and read it to the guards and the chief consul in shock. The king admitted that it was his wrong decisions in the past that caused the rift between Bain and the Empire and the current economic blockade. At the same time, his past arbitrary decisions prevented the Bain Kingdom from taking the right path.
“Looking at the powerful countries in the world, they all work together and invite representatives from all walks of life to discuss state affairs, which leads to stability, prosperity and development. The unfortunate incident that happened today made me deeply realize that the era when the kingdom was the private property of the nobility and the monarch was arbitrary is over.

"I have listened to opinions from all sides and have decided to accept the Empire's reform proposals. I will re-elect representatives to the Imperial Parliament and establish a Senate elected by public elections. This will be included in the law code of the Kingdom of Bain. I will personally visit the Imperial Capital to repair the Empire's relations and take it as my responsibility to seek the welfare of the people."

This "repentance edict" was written on the spur of the moment, and the words used were rather twisted, as there were doubts about its sincerity. But this did not prevent the audience from being shocked, and even the anger disappeared. Some people even squeezed out a few tears from their eyes and took the lead in applauding.

Suddenly, strange applause resounded in front of the palace, and the king looked as pale as paper under the shining huge magic ball.

Feuerbach watched everything with a frown on his face. He used the [Communication Technique] to solemnly say, "Master Rorschach, you have forced and manipulated the monarch of a country, setting a bad precedent since the Age of Silence."

"Really? But without me to speed up, the rule of the Ludwig family may not last long." Rorschach did not shy away from Eugenie, who was born in a royal family: "His Majesty Albert's throne is a reef sandwiched between two ocean currents, which will be washed away by the Empire and the Republic. "Compared to the collapse of the sky and the earth, he or his successor will fall from the throne. We are giving him a hand and let him live a leisurely nobleman in peace. At a time when civilians cannot eat without working and cannot live without fighting, they can still watch opera and recall the glory when they were in power.

"By the way, you can also enjoy the super luxury car given by the Special Administrative Region."

Feuerbach thought Rorschach was quite harsh, but he couldn't refute it. Rorschach didn't want to stop talking: "Besides, I'm not trying to create a puppet. I can only influence the special zone. As for the future of the entire kingdom, I respect the public's choice."

He can strike hard at industry associations and aristocrats that hinder him from doing what he wants, but for ordinary people, Rorschach is willing to take advantage of the situation and exchange interests for public opinion.

"Hmph, when you hold Byrne in your hands, will you 'respect' the fate of the Empire and Valois?" Feuerbach sneered. What he was most worried about was not the present, but that Rorschach was too young! Moreover, he did everything very quickly, so quickly that everyone let him grow and act boldly to the point where he is today.

"If that day really comes, and you still think I did something wrong, let the Arcane Senate, the Owl Arbitration Tribunal, and that whatever Brotherhood come together, and call on all the 'righteous wizards' to beat me up." Rorschach didn't care. He was more concerned about whether the extras that Varan had found were working hard.

Well, the incitement is very effective. Today is a victory dinner and a unity dinner.
Feuerbach finally sighed: "I hope that history books will not record me as an accomplice of you and your disciples."

"You are becoming more and more humorous. We are clearly in a cooperative relationship."

Back to the point, the chief of the Arcane Tower cheered up: "Mage Elizabeth, although you have temporarily left the Arcane Tower, as a great mage and a substitute member of the Senate of the Arcane, there is an important project that needs your help. It will lay the foundation for the existence of the future cross-continental magic guild."

Why is it so important to have a meal? Elizabeth Eugenie and the other two great wizards moved to Munich's guild to discuss in detail. Feuerbach relayed Kano's idea and said, "The Tower of Mysticism and Master Rorschach's Magic Tower will cooperate to jointly monitor the Transformation System of the Tree of Truth - the Second Branch."

The types of spellcasting that the thirteen magic towers are responsible for monitoring have been delineated. Rorschach added: "Spellcasting involving the 'Spell Cloud' system will be reflected synchronously on the Tree of Truth, but the information of the spellcaster may be in the spell cloud, which makes it more difficult for the Senate to observe. Therefore, we will regularly report the activation of high-risk nodes to the Senate."

If nodes such as "Withering", "Corruption" and "Polarization" involving the necromancy system or other risks are activated, the tower spirit will record the information and Rorschach will report it to the Senate.

"How far have you gone?" Elizabeth originally thought that Rorschach was crazy enough. It turned out that Feuerbach, who seemed to be mentally stable, was actually trying to monitor the spellcasting activities of the whole world. No, it was the actions of the entire Senate's top leaders.
"Well, currently only Master Kano has successfully reached the original layer and observed the legendary Tree of Truth."

"That means we haven't even completed the first step." Rorschach was optimistic. "But I believe that with the joint efforts of the 13+1 magic towers, we can soon turn the vision into reality, and the research projects we are responsible for can start immediately."

Elizabeth felt terrified, but she still accepted Feuerbach's invitation. She couldn't imagine what the outside world, the world of wizards, would become if she stayed in the palace of Würzburg for a while longer.
