Miao Jie: “The Tiber crystal liquid at high temperature will seriously corrode the building, causing serious damage to the building structure. But as you think, this incendiary bomb is ineffective against us and other creatures with demon blood.”
Upon hearing this, Zelen’s face became quite embarrassed.
Although everyone knows that the Rimai people are also intelligent creatures with demon blood; but the Rimai people and the demons are definitely not the same kind, and have been absolute mortal enemies since their birth.
But it’s good, at least now it can be determined that items related to the demons will not cause any harm to the Rimai people, and can even be used normally by the Rimai people without any adverse consequences.
If a coin were used to describe the relationship between the Rimai people and the demons, it would be a positive and negative relationship.
In short, instead of continuing to look at the situation at the Yufeng Aerial Outpost, Bourne in the parliamentary conference room handed over the current situation faced by the Takagi Kingdom in the form of a document to other officials for reading.
Lux: “Looking around, there is no reliable rebel force.”
Bourne: “If there is a powerful rebel force, I guess…if I have to say it, there is actually one.”
Lux: “What does it mean to have an arsenal that can produce rifles, machine guns, and ordinary rifle ammunition? Don’t you see what any arsenal here can do?”
Bourne: “Lux, you can’t say that. The gap between them and us is huge, very big, so big that you can’t believe it.”
Lux: “Ha…”
indeed.
The Takagi Kingdom is just a country with modern weapons and equipment, but the overall society is still in the era of pre-modernization and even traditional monarchy.
Just because the Takagi Kingdom is now the king, Takagi Shungo has to listen to the cannon blasting the death row prisoners every day. This can explain the current situation of Takagi Kingdom and the crisis hidden in the dark corners of Takagi Kingdom society.
To be more precise, in order to preserve his royal power, today’s King Junwu does not hesitate to use cruel punishments to stabilize his rule. Under such a rule, the people of Takagi Kingdom will sooner or later embark on the road of rebellion one after another in the most cruel way.
Bourne: “Therefore, I hope that everyone will cooperate to allow more Kuroge to break with the Akitsu Empire and even the Takagi Kingdom that enslaved themselves.”
Senagou: “About this…well, I think we can wait and see what happens. Anyway, there is another country that cares more about their situation than us.”
Although Senagu did not say it explicitly, congressional officials all knew that there was a country in the south of the Takagi Kingdom that had long been accused of “poorly dressed female people” and “it is unclear whether a wandering woman is in power.”
It has obvious characteristics of a matrilineal society, a unique system of taking one’s mother’s surname, and even the Negan Empire with incredible technology.
Not to mention being a trap, this country is also the culprit that has caused the Takagi Kingdom to face economic crises many times.
As for why…
Very simple.
If this is not done, the Negan Empire will be invaded.
The number of people in the Negan Empire is not large, not even reaching the level of 13 million. It is no match for the Takagi Kingdom, which already has hundreds of millions of people.
Even in the past history, the Takagi Kingdom once thought about how to encroach on the territory of the Nigan Empire. However, such conspiracy was repeatedly uncovered by the border guards of the Negan Empire, causing the Takagi Kingdom to have a long-term diplomatic excuse and had to temporarily bow its head.
Of course, regarding the issue of economic crisis, because the current high-level officials of the Takagi Kingdom have completely turned to the Akitsu Empire, the Takagi Kingdom has always used the currency of the Akitsu Empire to ensure its daily economic activities.
In other words, the Takagi Kingdom actually bowed to the Akitsu Empire in terms of economy, language, writing, and military. No matter which rebel force wants to truly complete the cause of independence, the above things must be resolved.
But this is unlikely to be easily solved.
With just an economy, the Takagi Kingdom is basically unable to be independent.
In particular, the printing plants and mints of the Takagi Kingdom were restricted by the past servant treaty, and they were all located within the territory of the Akitsu Empire. In other words, the Takagi Kingdom has no money at all.
In other words, if the Takagi Kingdom did not want to be controlled by the Akitsu Empire, it would have to establish its own money printing plant and mint, and then it would also need to establish a sufficient number of banks to ensure its daily commodity economic activities.
However, is this possible?
It is absolutely impossible for the pig-headed men of the Akitsu Empire to let the Takagi Kingdom possess this thing easily.
What’s more, if you switch to the Negan Empire in the south, there are many bankers in this country to harvest the leeks of the black-haired kobolds. Especially when not everyone with black-haired kobolds can count, and can only add and subtract within twenty at most.
Yes.
When it comes to education, the level of Takagi Kingdom is also unsatisfactory. After all, their officials don’t want the people to be smart at all…
