Elite Mages’ Academy

Chapter 158: New Washington Conference

New Washington.

Since the bi-lunar festival, the New World has entered autumn. This bustling city with a century-old history is obviously deserted in the bleak autumn breeze. Many of the noisy stores in the past are still closed, especially with a large number of elves. Quietly left the city in large numbers.

At this time, nearly half a month has passed since the Single Moon Festival known as the Day of Nightmare. The whole city could not forget everything that happened that night. The sudden **** moonlight enveloped the entire new Washington, which was a great influence on the colonization. For the readers, it is shocking to this unprecedented scene, but it is terrifying to the local indigenous people.

In the heart of the city, in the palace area, the undead skeletons that wreaked havoc in the palace that day were completely cleaned up, and the remains were completely burned to powder. In order to prevent future situations, the Adjudicator Academy also carefully inspected the places where the bodies might be buried. , Leaving no omission.

The Adjudicator Academy’s response measures can be said to be quite rapid, but a lot of impacts were caused after all, and it is difficult to reverse them in a short time.

In a hall of the imperial palace, around a huge round table, there are a dozen Americans sitting in a heated discussion.

"In the past two weeks in New Washington, business transactions have dropped by 12%, and many of the daily necessities have almost completely stagnated. If this continues, our income this year will drop a lot."

"Business is second. What I am worried about is the population problem! This is the population access data I have just obtained from the City Defense Department. In just ten days, nearly 450,000 people have left New Washington! Our whole city is only more than one million. People!"

"Population is still very important to us. The various infrastructure constructions of the colonies require a lot of labor. Our tax revenue mainly comes from the local indigenous people. A lot of hard work cannot be done by the people in our college. This issue really needs to be paid attention to. "

"I've seen the statistics of the Defense Department. Not many natives have left. The second and even third generations have basically taken root, and their families and businesses are in New Washington. They can't go if they want to. What worries me is that they are still elves. Clan, didn’t you notice it. From the day before yesterday, the elves in the city suddenly left in large numbers. Many shops opened by the elves were also sold at low prices. It seems that they have no plans to come back!"

"How long is the Peace Alliance Treaty between our Arbiter Academy and the Elves?"

"I remember that there are more than ten years left in the Hundred Years Alliance Treaty. The Elves are a race that attaches great importance to promises and credit, so there is no need to worry about them breaching the contract."

"What about ten years later? What if the elves refuse to renew the contract?"

"It's not a matter of thinking about ten years from now, and the topic should not be too far-fetched reads; you guys should think about how to save the new Washington's fiscal revenue this year!"

"Enough!" There was a sudden shout of anger in the noisy hall, and the man sitting in the corner shot up. Unlike other people who wear casual clothes, this man has a silver armor and a helmet on the table. His face is full of impatience and contempt, and his deep and deep voice echoes in the hall.

"You have been discussing demographics, finances, and contracts for the elves. I said, have you left the college for too long and have forgotten who we are?"

There was a commotion in the hall, and an older man stood up and said displeased: "Captain Harry, today this is the municipal meeting, and you are the leader of the Dragonhawk Knights. It stands to reason that the military department has nothing to do with this meeting. If it wasn't for you to report on important matters, we had no plans to let you participate!"

The heavily armed man was Harry. He sneered: "Don't forget that we are colonists! If the population is gone, we can plunder again, and we can rob our financial means. As for the elves, huh, even if that weak and incompetent race really wants to fight us, what can we do? I'm so scared!"

"Harry, what do you mean by this, just say it if you have something, don't be cynic!"

Harry took a deep breath. Temporarily suppressed his anger, and said in a cold voice: "So much was discussed in the meeting today. But you seem to have forgotten one very important thing! Lilith disappeared after that incident, and there is no news. Doesn't anyone care?"

"Lilith, you also know the character of that woman. Do whatever she thinks of. She doesn't know how to behave. Maybe she has found some interesting opponent. She has left New Washington first. Maybe she will be herself after some time. I'm back." The man who spoke earlier said perfunctorily.

A hideous look appeared on Harry's face, and he said angrily: "It seems that you don't know the importance of Lilith to the Arbiter Academy!"

"We naturally understand the importance of Lilith, Commander Harry, I can understand your feelings, but now is not the era of colonization by war alone. Economics and commerce are also very important. Everything we do is to judge. The interests of the college."

"Speaking of Chief Hari, you said that there is an important report here today, is that what you mean?"

Harry took a deep breath, shook his head slowly, and said, "He disappeared with Lilith that day. There is also a student of Dawning Academy we invited."

The short man closest to Harry was almost falling asleep. After hearing Harry’s words, he immediately opened his eyes, twisted his hips, and adjusted his slightly bloated body to a more comfortable sitting posture. Then he said slowly: " This matter belongs to my Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This Shuguang student named Xiao Lin was indeed invited by us to participate in Professor Brown’s work. After the Blood Moon incident that day, Head Harry and I interrogated the student who was controlled by the undead. But unfortunately, no information was obtained."

The man headed by the round table wore glasses and seemed to be the host of this meeting. He frowned and asked, "Is Dawn Academy? That's a bit troublesome. We also have an alliance treaty with Dawn Academy, so we can’t let the relationship be made. Nervous, what grade is this student in Dawn Academy and what is his strength level?"

The short man replied: "The freshmen who have just entered school have not yet reached the level of black iron. They rely on the anti-gravity accessories and super potions we provide to work in New Washington."

The man with glasses breathed a sigh of relief: "Freshman? It's nothing, can you hide the Shuguang Academy temporarily?"

The short man spread his hands: "This is what I am going to report today. I am afraid that this matter is a bit tricky. There is also a minister of Dawning Academy who accompanied Xiao Lin, who sent the information to Dawning Academy as soon as possible. It’s impossible to hide it. Now the special investigation team dispatched by Dawn Academy is already in my Ministry of Foreign Affairs. I would like to ask the city hall, what should I do?” (to be continued) Ps: Book friends, I am The end of the cabbage, recommend a free novel App, support novel download, listening to books, zero ads, multiple reading modes.
