Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1240 Building Tower Power Severton Mystery Lock

Seeing Hawke get up, Schom immediately frowned, and he immediately realized that what Hawke said next might be his real intention.

As a result, Schom looked at Hawke more and more unkindly, recalling the experience of being interrupted by Hawke many times before, he also immediately interrupted Hawke's speech:

"Hawk, I convened this temporary meeting just to announce the results of the investigation into Cliff's death. If you have anything to do, you can convene everyone next time to discuss it. Now we all have to go back and rest!"

"Next time? When is next time?"

Hawke glanced at Schom with disdain, then swept his eyes over everyone, and said loudly: "It's rare for everyone to come this time, what I want to say is not only my personal matter, but also closely related to everyone! "

Hearing this, Magna and the others paused the idea of ​​leaving immediately, and looked at Iolum in unison. Iolum had no objection to this, but nodded, and said to Hawke:

"Since everyone is here this time, Lord Hawke, if you have anything to say, you can say it now, and you don't have to wait until next time."

Iolum even spoke. Although Schom was dissatisfied, he didn't say anything. He just sat down resentfully, his face became more and more gloomy, and he barely concealed his malice towards Hawke.

"Everyone, I checked the royal power transfer agreement signed between the Nether family and the Severton Council, which clearly mentioned that Severton has certain public attributes, and any lord of Nether has the right to build a mage tower in Severton!

"However, for nearly a hundred years, the Severton Council, or the Seven Towers, has tried every means to obstruct this power that should be enjoyed by all lords. I express my serious protest against this!"

As soon as these words came out, not only Schom, but even the rest of the Seven Towers looked at Hawke very unkindly.

Even Iolum was quite dissatisfied with this, but he didn't show it. Although he was neutral, he also had the premise of maintaining the stability of Netheril.

Now that Hawke raises such a question, is it possible that it is to make Netheril more stable?
But no matter how dissatisfied everyone in the Seven Towers and Iolum were, Magna, Braun, and Vader's eyes suddenly lit up, and even the federation directors who were listening outside the meeting hall also showed each other that they could not knowing eyes.

You must know that most of the directors who came to observe this time are not affiliated to the Seven Towers. They all represent the forces behind them. Now someone has finally broken the essence of the Seven Towers' monopoly and wants them to obtain greater authority and benefits.

It's too late for them to be happy, how can they object, how can they be dissatisfied!
Today, most of the mage towers in Severton are concentrated in the old city, which is the private plot of the Seven Towers, and the number of mage towers in the new city is almost a handful.

But which archmage doesn't want to have his own mage tower in Severton!
For nothing else, even if it's just a temporary residence, that's great!
"I hope that the Seven Towers can let go of the control and interference with the construction of the Mage Tower, so as not to tarnish the legitimacy of the Severton Council!"

Regardless of Lord Hawke's performance in the past, just looking at his words, it really makes people think that he is a decent person who has been wronged but bravely and firmly continues to pursue justice!
But no matter what, since the words have been said, the Seven Towers must respond.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the meeting hall gradually became weird, Badigal immediately stood up and argued: "The Severnton Council has never prohibited any Nether Lord from building a mage tower in Severnton. If you want to build a mage tower in Severton, you can submit an application to the Severton Council first."

"Submit the application? Will the application be approved?" Hawke asked rhetorically.

"I think it's not difficult to pass as your Excellency." Badigal still didn't give a clear answer.

But Hawke didn't care, but continued: "So what if it's passed, all the quarries around Severton belong to the Lord of the Seven Towers, and the cost of element transformation is too huge!
"That's not to mention whether a thief will come to the construction site at night to sabotage, or the price of mithril and gemstones on the market will suddenly increase, or the fluctuation of the Severton Mystery Lock will cause the element pool to be poorly connected!"

After finishing speaking, Hawke turned to look at the more than a dozen federation directors who were listening outside the hall, and asked, "Who do you think can build a mage tower in Severton under such circumstances?"

The directors all bowed their heads in silence, and no one answered, but they all had a common answer in their hearts, that is - only if the Seven Towers belonged, could a mage tower be built in Severton!

However, Badigal also had a plan for this, and immediately explained: "Since you mentioned the mythos, you should know that the construction of the Severton mythos started nearly a hundred years ago, and it has not yet been completed.

"In order to reduce the interference with the construction of the mythos, the site selection of any new mage tower must go through multiple verifications, and it is confirmed that there is no serious interference with the mythos before the Severton Council will agree to the application.

"The fluctuation of the mythos that you just mentioned caused the poor connection of the element pool. That is because the Mage Tower was built earlier than the construction of the mythos, and interference is inevitable.

"Constructed after the start date of Mysuo, or the Mage Tower that has been renovated and maintained by the Seven Towers, there is no such problem!"

This explanation seems reasonable at first glance, but in fact there is a very fatal loophole. If Hawke hadn't received the news in advance, he would probably be devolved into it.

As for the loophole, Hawke didn't shy away from it, and pointed it out in front of everyone: "Your Excellency Badigal, if my information is correct, the Severton Mystery should have been completed not long ago! "

As he said that, he further questioned Iolum: "Master Iolum, as the president of the Arcane Federation, you should have the secondary authority of the Sevington Mystic, and you should also know the end of this Mystical. Is it finished? Here, I would like to ask you to give a clear answer!"

Being persecuted by a junior like this, although Iolum didn't show any joy or anger on his face, he was also very dissatisfied in his heart, but this kind of problem, if it is really serious, is not difficult to investigate, so—

He couldn't hide anything about this kind of issue, otherwise it would damage the foundation of the Austrian Law Federation's existence.

Even if this kind of problem can't be investigated, he doesn't bother to lie, just do what he wants!
"Master Iolum!"

There was a flustered look in Badigal's eyes for the first time, but Iolum still shook his head slightly, and said the answer that was hard for Badigal to accept:
"Yes, just a few days ago, the Sevington Mystery Lock, which took nearly a hundred years to build, was completed!"

Of course, strictly speaking, the current Severton Mystic has little to do with the Severton Mystic planned a hundred years ago, but it is not wrong to say that it has been built for nearly a hundred years.

It's just that the research on the mythos in the Seven Towers has been very limited in the past hundred years, and only in recent years have there been breakthroughs, which also prompted the rapid construction of the Severton mythos.

　The key technology of the mytho was given to the Seven Towers by Ilfaron through Randall. Iolum may know about it, but he may not have obtained this part of the technology.
