Magic Industry Empire - 1094. Chapter 1094 City Magic Defense System
A magic airship slowly fell from the air.
As soon as it was settled, Princess Caroline…oh no, Grand Duke Caroline, who had already taken over the position of the Grand Duke, led a group of subordinates to greet him.
The hatch of the magic airship opened and Xu Yi walked out of it.
“Hey, dear Xu Yi, you are finally here. I’ve already waited impatiently.” Grand Duke Caroline walked over, gave Xu Yi a big hug, and then utterly ignored the gazes of everyone around him. He started to move towards Xu Yi’s face.
Xu Yi quickly turned her face away, avoiding her mouth and just let her kiss her face, and then kissed her on the cheek again, which is regarded as completing this obviously more intimate etiquette.
“Hey, Caroline, you are the one who will be married next month, why are you so bold?” Xu Yi whispered in the ear of Duke Caroline.
“Bold? Are you there?” Grand Duke Caroline smiled and let out a sigh of relief, making Xu Yi’s ears itchy. “If you promise me now, what do you think of me going back and returning the marriage right now?”
“Naughty.” Xu Yi lightly scolded, letting go of his hands, gently pushing Duke Caroline’s body away, and then coughing lightly, and said seriously: “Are you all ready?”
Grand Duke Caroline shrugged: “I don’t have much to prepare, anyway, it’s mainly waiting for the people you send to come over.”
“Um.”
Xu Yi nodded, beckoned behind him, and a group of people of various colors in the uniforms of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce and others filed out of the magic airship.
“These are some of the personnel responsible for initial surveying and mapping who came with me this time. Come, let me introduce, this is Gustalo, the person in charge of the Magic Defense Project of the Dole City System.”
A tall, middle-aged human man walked up and bowed to Grand Duke Caroline.
“Have seen the Grand Duke.”
Grand Duke Caroline looked at him up and down, smiled and stretched out his hand.
“Since President Xu sent you over, I have full confidence in you. Director Gustallo, the overall defense of Dole City is all up to you.”
Gustallo hesitated for a moment, took Grand Duke Caroline’s outstretched hand and gently kissed, and replied respectfully: “I will serve you wholeheartedly.”
“Very good.” Duke Caroline circulated his eyes, scanned the other New Flying Chamber of Commerce employees behind Xu Yi, and made an inviting gesture. “I have set up a banquet in the city. Please President Xu and everyone to follow me.”
Xu Yi shook his head and glanced at Gustalo and said: “Time is running out, they don’t have so much time to attend a banquet. Gustalo, you should hurry up to investigate the conditions of the city wall now, and strive for today. Just take out the rough data. The R&D center is still waiting.”
“Yes.” Gustalo immediately nodded in response, then turned his head and said to Caroline: “Your Excellency, please send some people familiar with Dole City to do this work with us.”
Grand Duke Caroline was a little stunned: “You don’t need to be so anxious, right? You come so far, at least you have to eat a meal to get used to it.”
“No, we don’t actually have that much time. The next wave of attacks from the Marlow Empire will not be known. Moreover, as long as they come again, they will inevitably be a very fierce wave of attacks. The precious land was snatched back by the Maro Empire in a blink of an eye, right?” Xu Yidao.
Grand Duke Caroline sighed slightly and beckoned backwards, and the two officials of the Principality of Drake who followed her to greet them quickly walked over.
“Director Gustaro, these are our two officials responsible for the overall defense of Dole City. If you have any questions, you can ask them.”
“OK.”
Director Gustalo stopped being polite, and went straight up to talk with the two officials.
“Xu Yi, I am very surprised a lot of times. How did you train your chamber of commerce employees to look like this? It seems that their eyes are only work, nothing else.” Grand Duke Caroline looked at it. Gustalo and another group of employees of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce also joined in the heated discussion, and couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.
Xu Yi smiled and said: “It’s not as exaggerated as you said. The employees of our chamber of commerce are also very good at playing when they are idle, but they have always been very serious when working. This is my strict requirement of them. Of course, they can accept and do it consciously, mainly because they feel that their work is very fulfilling.”
“Sense of accomplishment?” Grand Duke Caroline frowned slightly. “What kind of sense of accomplishment?”
“Think about it, because of their hard work, they can make Dole City, an unremarkable small city, able to withstand the attacks of the huge Maro Empire. Isn’t there a sense of accomplishment yet?”
Grand Duke Caroline was silent for a moment, and then asked: “Xu Yi, you answer me seriously, after the construction of this city system magic defense project, it can really make Dole City extremely stable, enough to withstand the attacks of the Marlow Empire army. ?”
“Urban defense has never been solved by a single system alone, but I can tell you that as long as there is no problem with other aspects of Dole City, then this set of defense system is enough to make Dole City persist for at least one month. It will fall-no matter how many troops the Marlow Empire sends.” Xu Yi replied sternly.
“What if the Marlow Empire dispatches a magister?” Grand Duke Caroline asked again.
“Magic?” Xu Yi laughed. “Hey, if the Maro Empire is willing to risk the taboos of all the magicians on the entire continent and go against the tradition to send a magister to attack other countries, then he has already lost half. As for the magister himself…I admit the magister himself. The ability is very powerful, but you have to remember that a person’s role in war is very limited. Even if the Marlow Empire really dispatches a magician, there is nothing to do with this set of magical defense system that our Chamber of Commerce has developed and carefully built after long-term research and development. .”
Grand Duke Caroline looked at Xu Yi suspiciously, wondering why he was so confident.
Magisters have always been the top combat power on this continent. In the historical wars on Sainz, as long as either side of the war has more Magus-level wizards, it is enough to decide one. The outcome of the battle.
And once even the magister appeared, it was enough to make the balance of victory and defeat in this battle quickly fall to the side with the magister.
The reason why the Maro Empire and the Candela Empire have been able to stand on the Sainz Continent for so many years, in addition to their national strength remains absolutely strong most of the time, when they decline, there will also be magisters sitting, making other countries unable to It really matters to defeat them.
At the beginning of its establishment, the Wizards’ Guild determined that the magicians should not participate in the war to invade other countries. Although it guaranteed that the two empires could not easily invade other countries, it also allowed the two empires to stand tall.
But this tradition is just an unwritten rule that is commonly known as a convention. In case the Maro Empire really breaks this tradition, the entire continent except the Candela Empire and the Mana Magic Kingdom, which has the third largest number of magisters, can treat it. Except for restrictions, other countries and forces are not qualified.
This time, the Candela Empire and the Maro Empire are extremely rare to unite, and even united with the Mana Magician Kingdom and other countries to declare war on the New Flying Merchants Association. The most worrying aspect of the New Flying Merchants Association is that the other party will be dispatched. The problem of the Magister’s involvement in the invasion war.
Although so far, the other party has not meant to break this tradition, but no one can guarantee that the other party will never do so.
After all, even the almost impossible thing that the two empires joined forces has happened, and it is not completely impossible for something other unthinkable to happen.
However, now Xu Yi told Duke Caroline that the role of the Magister in the war was very limited.
“To tell you the truth, Caroline, the ultimate goal of our Chamber of Commerce to develop this urban defense system is actually the magister in case there is a possibility. Regarding any of the conventional armies of the two empires, even if we do not include us Including the guards of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, even your own army in the Principality of Delar is not very afraid, are they?”
“Hmm…” Grand Duke Caroline nodded gently.
When the armies of the Duchy of Drake and the Kingdom of Lampari fought against the combined forces of the Malo Empire and the Frankish Kingdom, the opponent had no power to fight back on the frontal battlefield.
Given the huge gap in combat power between the two sides, the so-called gap in military power is simply irrelevant.
In fact, even if it did not join forces with the Kingdom of Lampari, relying solely on the army owned by the Duchy of Drake, not to mention that even the regular army of the Maro Empire was also cleaned up, at least there would be no pressure against the army of the Frankish Kingdom. At all.
“So, this time I will assist you in building this urban defense system in Dole City, not far from the border of the Maro Empire. To put it bluntly, it is to defend against the possible offensive or even possible defense of the Maro Empire. The magister that appears.” Xu Yi continued. “Think about it, what do you think the Maro Empire will think if even the Magister is dispatched and unable to conquer this city? What will other countries on the continent think?”
Grand Duke Caroline thought for a while, then smiled.
“If even the Magister can’t do anything about us, it means that this land will truly fall into the hands of our Duchy of Drake, and no one can take it away.”
“Yes. At that time, you are no longer just the Grand Duke of Drake, but the Queen of Drake Kingdom.” Xu Yi smiled.
