Chapter 962: Countermeasures
"What force could do such a thing?" the maid did not immediately answer Latinia's question, but asked her rhetorically.
"Assassinate several great nobles at the same time......"
Latinia fell into deep thought, the military strength of the Mor Commercial Federation is indeed not strong, but as merchant nobles, the great nobles of the Mor Commercial Federation are quite rich, and they understand the truth that 'wealth only has real value when it is circulated', so they will not hoard their wealth in their own warehouses like the nobles of other countries and do not use it.
While cultivating their own family talents, they will also use money to hire some mercenaries and adventurers, and will use the money to buy the second half of the lives of some retired mercenaries and adventurers, so that these people can work for them.
This kind of work is relatively easy and has a lot of pay, so many adventurers and mercenaries want to get a job with the merchant nobles before they retire.
They don't lack protection, and because they're rich, even more than many mages, they generally carry a lot of magic items and even magical artifacts.
These things can protect their lives, and because each great noble family has an orderly inheritance, almost every heir is a professional, although they will not become 'extraordinary', but they also have considerable strength in their own right.
There are not many organizations that can be assassinated under this layer of protection, and there are not many organizations that can do this kind of thing.
Latinia asked Serena to find a way to help her mitigate the effects of the crisis, at least not to allow the Wealth Church, which had once again entered a period of development, to decline.
The maid knew that Latinia wanted to use the power of the Duchy of Sorrow to stabilize the trade crisis brought about by the Mor Merchant Federation entering a state of combat readiness this time, but this is the case with the commercial trade in this era, and even the Principality itself will be greatly affected by the fact that the Mor Merchant Federation has entered a state of combat readiness, let alone stabilizing the situation.
It's too difficult, even the current Duchy of Sorrow can't do it.
After a series of thoughts, Latinia also reacted.
Until now, they only knew the news, and they didn't understand what kind of conspiracy was hidden behind this matter.
It would be fine if this matter was only for the purpose of targeting the Moore Merchant Federation, but if the assassination of the great nobles of Moore was just the beginning, and the real purpose was actually to calculate the Duchy of Sorrow or the Church of Wealth?
The business of the Mendes Continent and even the entire Slo Mendes Continent will be plunged into a turmoil, then she Latinia will definitely take the Wealth Church to save the situation, otherwise she and the Wealth Church will be weakened.
Now that she has ended up with the Wealth Church, the head maid of the Principality of Sorrow will definitely not sit idly by, and will definitely follow her to save the continent's commerce.
If the mastermind behind the scenes is not targeting the Moore Merchant Federation, and doing this kind of thing is just to lead them down, with the intention of calculating them, then their rash action is just killing them.
However, if the purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes is actually the commercial trade of the entire continent, no matter what they do, in the end, the business behavior will be greatly impacted, whether it is indifference or the end of the rescue, it can make the mastermind behind the scenes satisfied.
Now they don't know anything, and acting rashly is to leave someone else's handle, so the best action now should be to stand still......
Even after knowing this, Latinia was still not reconciled - could she only watch this great development opportunity go away from her? Can she only watch the decline of business, and all countries and people will be affected by this shock?
"Latinia, I know you're sad...... the maid took a light breath and sighed, "But, I'm also unwilling! Now when the [Star Sea Boat] conducts research, it needs to consume a lot of materials every day, and the materials consumed by the Court Mage Association of the Kurkut Empire are probably even more astronomical, if business behavior plummets, it will be us mages who will be affected the most." ”
"No mage organization dares to guarantee that the materials they have can continue to be consumed for several months, even if we are backed by the Black Forest, now the magic technology has entered a period of take-off, all kinds of ideas collide together, after inspiration and fusion, every day there are new technologies in this world, especially now that the research of the 'Internet' has entered the final stage, the accumulated world of Assatom has begun to move forward again!"
Serena's face slowly darkened, and by the end, her face was so gloomy that it seemed to be able to drip water.
"But these developments have all been piled up with magical materials and research, and we have spent a lot of money, but we have also gained enough things, whether it is merchants or we mages, we have made a lot of money. However, if there is no supply of magical materials, or if it is reduced, then the speed of research will be slowed down, which means that the progress of society will be delayed - and it will be farther and farther away from my desired goal!" the maid gritted her teeth, and the listener fell silent.
Since breaking the restrictions on trade between tribes, trade has become an indispensable part of human life, perhaps for the people at the bottom of this era, commerce is not necessary, but for the entire human society and even the entire intelligent race of the Slo Mendes continent, commercial behavior is very necessary.
Today, the continent of Slo Mendes has entered a period of rapid development, and new magical energy technologies have appeared one after another, laying a solid foundation for the future era, and in this period, commercial trade is especially important.
However, the Principality of Sorrow and the Church of Wealth alone cannot make up for the missing parts, and they must beware of knives that do not know if they exist......
It is not possible to transfer the commercial center to other places so easily, and the reason why the Moore Merchant Federation was founded there is because of its excellent geographical location!
Even if the earth reaches the 21st century, the commercial center must also pay attention to geographical and human factors, and it is impossible to casually transfer to a certain corner, let alone the world of Assatom in this era.
"Then we can just do nothing?" Latinia pursed her lips tightly, her brows furrowed, and her knuckles were already white.
The anger in her heart is burning, if she can find the mastermind behind the scenes, she will break those masterminds into pieces, and then take them all to feed the pigs and dogs!
However, the maid's next answer surprised her-
"You can do it, but at the same time, you have to be careful!" the maid nodded and said seriously: "Now those people dare to do this kind of behavior, which means that if their real target is the commercial trade of the mainland, then they may attack the church next, and the business alliance will definitely be hit by them." If possible, I hope to be able to summon the invoker and the Holy Spirit from the kingdom of God, and if anything happens, let the invoker and the Holy Spirit come down immediately, and do not be stingy with divine power, because this is a war!"
Even though it's just in case, if something does happen, then it's too late to regret it.
"Yes, it's a war......" Latinia nodded in agreement, and she smiled nervously at this point, "It's a war!"
She had already decided that the mastermind behind the scenes was mainly targeting the Continental Business and her Church of Fortune, and whether or not the target of that group of fellows was really the Moore Business Federation, she had already made up her mind to summon the Merger and the Holy Spirit.
Even if they needed divine power to survive in the mortal world, and they couldn't return to the kingdom of God, she didn't care about that anymore.
Someone had already 'declared war' on her, and as a god, how could she not respond to those enemies?
Whether or not this is a conspiracy against her, the masterminds behind it are all dead - they'd better not do anything afterward, or they will die at her hands no matter how many people they send!
