Chapter 65: A new great sage?
After solving the erosion of Nephren previous life, the two took the airship back to the fourth fairy warehouse. As soon as they came back, they received a lot of attention.
Needless to say, after learning that Nephren had become the first golden fairy in the world to break free from the erosion of her previous life, Chtholly was so excited that she almost cried.
Not only was he happy for his friend's recovery, but he was also excited to see the future of his race. And Yatogami Tohka received no less attention than Nephren.
After all, the golden clock in her right eye was too eye-catching.
Facing everyone's questions, Yatogami Tohka will tell what happened on the second floating Island. Suowong death, the progress of the experiment, and the fusion of the spirit crystals...
After listening to these things that were filled with so much information, everyone was silent for a while. The reasons for their silence were different.
"I didn't expect that Suowong would die before me." Upon hearing the news of Suowong death, William's expression was somewhat complicated, and he said with a wry smile. No one could tell how long Suowong, who had cursed himsSpirit and distorted his life form, would live. But William thought, this guy has lived for five hundred years, and it shouldn't be a problem to live another hundred or eighty years. If anyone is going to die, it should be him, the guy with all the injuries, who should die first.
In this way, he would not be the one who needed to grieve for his friend's death. But he did not cry or have an emotional breakdown.
Even the disappointment on his face only lasted for a moment before disappearing.
They were all brave men, ready to sacrifice for their ideals, and ready to learn about the sacrifices in battle. After all, before meeting Suowong, William had already thought he was dead.
It was already a blessing to be able to meet him again in the world five hundred years later.
Besides, now was not the time to reminisce about old friends.
"Now that Suowong is gone, things are probably going to change for the Floating Continent Archipelago."
Coming out of his brief meRhancholy, William took a deep breath and his expression became serious: "As the great sage of the floating continent archipelago, his existence is like an anchor for the residents here. Now that he is gone, turmoil will probably ensue."
There are several kingdoms on the floating continental archipelago.
Different orc royal families and nobles ruled over different floating Island, often competing against each other in secret. If it weren't for the great god Suowong who kept them under pressure, wars might have broken out between them long ago. Orcs are a race that admires strength.
When Suowong was around, they would respectfully listen to his words and accept the control of the coalition government. But now that Suowong is gone, these kingdoms will surely fight each other for territory like wild beasts without shackles. During these days of study, William has already sensed the political vortex of the floating continent archipelago.
"What should we do then?" Chtholly asked worriedly.
"The mission of the Golden Fairy is to destroy the invading Sixth Beast. No one should pay attention to you." William said, "After all, the premise of internal strife is the stability of the outside world. They may become enemies, but their common enemy must be the Seventeenth Beast."
"Don't we still have Lord Ebon Candle in the Floating Continent Island?" Nygglatho, "He can take the place of the Great Sage." "Impossible." William shook his head, "The reason he was willing to create the Floating Continent Island with Suowong was just to leave a memory. It doesn't matter to him how many orcs die. As long as the orcs don't fight to the point of extinction, he will never interfere."
Listening to William's analysis, Yatogami Tohka nodded in agreement. In the original novel, after Suowong death, a large-scale civil war did break out in the floating continental archipelago. Some kingdoms even transported the Seventeen Beasts that were supposed to be on the ground to the floating continental archipelago and dropped them into the territory of the hostile kingdom. If such a thing really happened, it would not be of any benefit to Yatogami Tohka .
Regardless of whether the Golden Fairy will be involved, even if not, her planwill be difficult to execute. After all, if she wants to counterattack the ground and take back the Rhan, she needs all the orcs to unite. Not only to help Suowong fulfill his last wish, but more to complete the second branch mission. In order to achieve this goal, the Orc Kingdom must stand on the same front.
"I have a proposal."
Just as everyone was worried, Ithea raised her hand and said, "Why don't we let Tohka be the new great sage?"
"Huh?"
"Comrade Ithea , are you awake?"
"Don't joke around at this time, okay?"
As soon as this proposal came out, it immediately attracted siege from people around.
But Ithea didn't think her proposal was bad at all, and instead argued with those who opposed her. To be honest, this was indeed a feasible plan.
Suowong departure left the Floating Continent Island without the anchor that stabilized it.
So, what needs to be done to stabilize the floating continental archipelago again? The simplest answer is, of course, to build another anchor.
To become a great sage, one needs not only wisdom, but also strength. However, under the leadership of Suowong, the Floating Continent Island already have a complete operating system, so there is no need for the latter to change anything. Therefore, the new great sage needs more strength.
Both Suowong and Ebon Candle have the absolute strength to suppress the orc kingdoms in the floating continent archipelago.
However, the former is now dead, and the latter has no intention of taking over, which will inevitably lead to the floating continent archipelago falling into a state of leaderlessness in the future.
Since there is no leader, the Orc Kingdom will use its own methods to decide on a new leader. However, most orcs are of average strength, and no matter how strong they are, they will not be strong enough to daunt others. Therefore, the Orc Kingdom will definitely not submit to each other, and the final winner can only
be decided through war.
If this happens, it would be better to just put Yatogami Tohka in the position of the Great Sage. After all, in terms of power, she, who has two spirit crystals, is probably already beyond Suowong and Lord Ebon Candle . All we need to do is to defeat all the orc kingdoms one by one, and the floating continent archipelago will be able to return to a stable state. Even if someone is not afraid of power and still uses Yatogami Tohka legitimacy to say that it is, it is just a small problem.
At that time, we can just take Ebon Candle out for a walk and have him endorse Yatogami Tohka . Although this lazy guy is unwilling to spend time ruling the floating continent archipelago, it doesn't matter if he helps. [Let Yatogami Tohka be the Great Sage]
At first, everyone thought that this proposal was outrageous, outrageous to the extreme. But as Atheya argued, everyone thought about it and felt that it made some sense. They just felt that Yatogami Tohka had nothing to do with the title of Great Sage. But in the final analysis, Suowong more accurate position is the leader of the Floating Continent Island, and Great Sage is just a title. If Yatogami Tohka really becomes the new leader, she can let others call her anything she wants. Queen? Venerable? Lord?
The name can be changed at any time, it's not a problem at all.
Everyone looked at each other.
This proposal of Ithea ...
It seems like there is really a way out?
Chapter 66: Draft of the Golden Fairy Human Rights Act
Time passed quickly and a month passed.
During this time, the news of the great sage's death spread to the floating Island at the speed of wildfire. Some people mourned for him, some were confused about the future, and some didn't care at all. But no matter who they were, they could clearly feel that with the death of the creator of the floating continent archipelago, the situation between the various orc kingdoms became impetuous.
Just as William expected.
The Guardian Wings Army, which lost Suowong supervision, gradually formed different factions under the infiltration of various kingdoms. The original mission of the Guardian Wings Army was to eliminate the invading Sixth Beast and protect the safety of the floating continent Island. However, now that the First Floating Island has gradually lost its absolute voice, the Guardian Wings Army has gradually taken on different political colors. In some kingdoms, some legion commanders are even prohibited from entering the airspace of their kingdoms because they are too close to the enemy kingdoms. The tension between the kingdoms is getting stronger and stronger.
The 4th Fairy Warehouse, which was affiliated with the 2nd Division, did not make any moves. They did not express their political stance, nor did they ask Yatogami Tohka to act according to the plan. They just quietly carried out the annihilation mission assigned to them by the Guardian Wing Army, as usual, as if nothing had happened. William was waiting.
Everyone at the Fourth Fairy Warehouse is waiting.
The long-awaited news finally reached the Fourth Fairy Warehouse today.
The floating Island where the fourth fairy warehouse is located, the mooring dock.
As the roar of the engine stopped, the hatch opened, and the floating ladder was placed on the dock. Baroni, a rabbit from the United Government who had met Yatogami Tohka and William, walked out of the airship. He was a first-class military attaché of the First Floating Island United Government, or in other words, a member of Suowong faction. He came here today for only one purpose.
GRhancing at the people who had been waiting for him at the dock, Baroni pulled out a document with a gold border and an official red seal. "The new bill from the coalition government, the Draft Golden Fairy Human Rights Bill, has been passed."
Baroni stood up straight and read out with a serious expression: "In accordance with the will left by the great sage before his death, from today on, all golden fairies will no longer be regarded as weapons, but citizens of the floating continent Island with the same rights as orcs. The information control law will also be invalid from today, and all information belonging to golden fairies will be released. Your history and achievements will be known to all citizens."
"Yeah!"
"I have finally waited for this day..."
"Go wherever you want!"
When Baroni read out the last word, almost everyone present cheered. This was a historic moment on the floating continent archipelago.
It is a memorable day for all the golden fairies.
They had waited so long, and the day of liberation had finally arrived. From today on, their race would have equal human rights with other races, and they would no longer have to sacrifice for anyone unless they were willing. The name of the Fairy Warehouse would also be swept into the garbage heap of history.
At the same time, they do not think that this is only temporary freedom.
Because once the intelligence of the Golden Fairies is no longer controlled and known by ordinary orcs, the military will never be able to use them as weapons. If they want to withdraw this draft one day, they will not only face the anger of the Golden Fairies, but all the conscientious orcs in the entire
floating continent will stand against them.
Just like what Limestone Skin said.
Golden Fairys are all admirable warriors.
They have given too much to the Floating Continent Archipelago, and the entire Floating Continent Archipelago owes them. They should be respected as heroes, not used as weapons.
Even in the Guardian Wing Army, many officers regard the Golden Fairy as a tool for promotion, but with Yatogami Tohka continuous efforts these days, at least in the Second Division, ordinary orc soldiers have already fully accepted the Golden Fairy.
Of course, this is also because the first-class military attaché of the Second Division is an open-minded officer like Gray Rock Skin. But no matter what, the future awaits the Golden Fairy, and there must be a bright future. "When this news ferments and spreads to the entire floating continent archipelago, the third branch mission will be completed." Hearing this news, Yatogami Tohka was in a good mood.
She has lived in this world for two months, staying much longer than the last time. However, she has not completed any of the side quests.
The first branch mission was only a quarter completed, and the second branch mission had not even started. But now, after her own dedication and the efforts of Ebon Candle and Suowong, the third branch mission was finally completed. And she was 80% sure that it would be completed perfectly.
"It seems that the refining method given by Suowong is indeed correct. Lord Ebon Candle should have succeeded." Since the
Golden Fairy has been officially announced to be liberated, it can only mean one thing.
During this month, Lord Ebon Candle really created the so-called [Soul Crystal]. Moreover, the Soul Crystal created by using the Spirit Crystal as a reference must have the function of replacing the Golden Fairy. At that time, the deal reached between Yatogami Tohka and Suowong was that she would lend them the Spirit Crystal for research. If the Soul Crystal created was useful, he would agree to release the Golden Fairy. With the birth of the soul crystal, the deal is considered complete.
"Ms. Yatogami, Mr. William."
After handing the document declaring the Golden Fairy's freedom to Nygglatho, one of the managers of the Fourth Fairy Warehouse, Baroni came in front of the two of them and lowered his voice: "The lord of the Second Floating Island, Lord Ebon Candle wants to meet with you. The lord said he has something important to discuss with you."
Hearing this, William and Yatogami Tohka looked at each other.
As expected, after completing the production of the Soul Crystal, Lord Ebon Candle invited them to witness the birth of this product. They had no reason to refuse this invitation.
They are all very curious about soul crystals.
What's more, if you want Yatogami Tohka to replace Suowong and become the new "King" of the Floating Continent Island, although strength is the most important, if you want to make the Orc Kingdom obedient, both the big stick and the sweet dates are indispensable.
If they could persuade Lord Ebon Candle to give them the soul crystals to distribute, wouldn't it be easy to unite with the Orc Kingdom and counterattack the ground? Thinking of this, William became more and more excited.
"Well, let's go."
He took a deep breath, and followed Baroni into the airship with Yatogami Tohka .
"This is the first step to realize the plan."
