Chapter 526: Secret War Order and Biological Airship
Translator: Lonelytree
If Rhaegar wasn’t willing.
Then, kill him.
They would replace him with someone else who was willing.
This was also why Rheagar had such a difficult time making a decision.
Just as Margaret had said.
He had placed all the danger on himself.
Many people were in the prime material plane, and Escana wished for his death.
Of course.
There were also many people who wished for him to live.
Matthew was one of them.
He knew very well what it meant to be an easy-going feudal lord in this turbulent era.
He had lived in Rolling Stone for so long and had developed feelings for her. He did not want to wander around again.
Hence, Rheagar had to live.
“You just mentioned war. Since the prime material plane is going to war, why do you have to go to the Bloodbath Plains?”
Matthew suddenly asked.
Margaret shook her head.
” The intensity of the upcoming war in the prime material world is nothing compared to the bloody war. You should know about the secret war order. It will be fully released next month at the latest. It will strictly control the intensity of the war in the prime material world.” Matthew was stunned. “Secret war order? What’s that?”
Margaret raised her eyebrows.
“Didn’t Isabelle or Edmond tell you?”
Matthew said truthfully, “They haven’t been looking for me recently.” Margaret was not surprised.
” That’s why my mentor, Soria, is the best. Everything is calculated with money. She won’t give you the cold shoulder for no reason, and she won’t reward you for no reason. Everything is fair.
“I’ll get you a copy. There are a lot of troublesome terms anyway. It’s like playing house for children.”
As she spoke.
She handed a thick magic document to Matthew.
Matthew quickly read it.
He discovered that this secret order was for all the mages of the Seven Saint Alliance and the lords of all the city-states within the alliance’s radius!
As Margaret had said, this secret order had many restrictive clauses. On the surface, it seemed to be to ensure that the intensity of the war would not go overboard.
Matthew noticed a few key pieces of information.
[- -Mage registration principle:
All mages of the Seven Saint Alliance had to register their city-states or not participate in the war within a month of the order being issued.
Mages who chose not to participate in the war were not allowed to side with any faction in any way during the war.
They had to avoid wars between mortals to the greatest extent.
No excuse is allowed (unless the mortal lord takes the initiative to attack);
Mages who chose to participate in the war had to abide by the principle of one person, one city. In other words, a mage could only be registered under the name of one city, and could not be affiliated with multiple cities. However, a city could register many mages under its name.
Mages shall try not to hurt civilians during war.
Forbidden experiments must not be conducted in the name of war;
Battle principles:
City-states with similar strengths could resolve their conflicts through fair and open battles with similar numbers of participants.
The location of the battle would be decided by both sides through negotiation. The Seven Saint Alliance would send a referee for any battle to ensure the smooth progress of the battle.
Before the battle, both sides must sign a voluntary agreement. As for the outcome of the battle, both sides must strictly abide by it.
Usually.
The total number of people in a single battle would not exceed 1,000.
Surprise attack principle:
During war, surprise attacks and long-range attacks were not prohibited.
However, cities that used these strategies and were discovered would be deprived of the opportunity to apply for a battle.
-Principle of equality:
When one party in the war acts without restraint, the other party can retaliate in equal measure, but the retaliation must not exceed a certain limit.
There were 47 pages of such detailed rules.
Matthew was speechless.
Could the intensity of war be controlled at the macro level and manipulated at the micro level?
He could understand the conflicting attitude of the Seven Saint Alliance’s upper echelons towards this war.
They hoped that this heated war would not harm too many lives, but they also knew that objective laws could not be avoided.
The outer planes were eyeing them covetously.
Aindor, who was still stuck in an agricultural society, needed to be warned of the fire.
However, they didn’t want the fire to hurt their foundations.
This contradictory mentality was vividly reflected in this secret order.
It gave people the feeling that they wanted everything.
“It’s clearly a direct order. Why is it called a secret order?”
Matthew asked, puzzled.
Margaret chuckled.
Because this detailed guide will not be publicly announced. It will only be secretly distributed to the target group. Everyone has a tacit understanding.”
Matthew was even more speechless.
“Can the intensity of war be controlled?
Once the war starts, how can it be stopped so easily? Even the lofty Legendary-mages can’t underestimate the anger and hatred of mortals.” Margaret waved her hand.
I’m not sure. I heard that they probably think that as long as the Legendary-mage doesn’t participate, the situation will be under control.” Matthew shook his head gently.
The Seven Saints might not participate, but they should have friends, family, children, and descendants, right?
The simple principle of an eye for an eye should be understandable to all.
And once the rules were broken.
The so-called secret order would become a joke.
But Matthew didn’t say anything.
He couldn’t think of a better solution either.
However, this secret order made him feel the confusion and weakness of the Seven Saint Alliance.
Perhaps after losing the Calamity Mage..
The Seven Saint Alliance, which seemed to be glorious for a time, was also walking on a small path towards ruin..
