Wizards are mighty

"Bang!"

A dull sound of banging on the table sounded in the simple conference room.

One of the deputy leaders and chief of staff of the resistance army was browsing a document with a gloomy expression.

This document was compiled from information provided by a large number of informants. It records the contents of multiple gatherings of nobles in the Southern Continent, as well as various regulations of the Steam Federation civilization.

Yes, the resistance's intelligence work was pretty good. Before the nobles announced the establishment of the Steam Federation civilization, they had already obtained relevant data.

And this incident dealt a huge blow to the resistance.

Because before this, the banner of the resistance army had always been to revive the glory of the steam civilization of the past, and it had attracted many people with lofty ideals.

If those nobles hadn't attacked each other every day and acted recklessly, they wouldn't have been able to recruit various high-level talents so easily.

But now, it seems that the nobles have not continued to use this free time to fight for power and seize more resources as they had expected.

Instead, they united.

There must be a ghost in this.

In fact, he had already guessed this ghost before.

After all, those mysterious visitors who fell from the sky would not have been invisible as long as they were not blind.

Another document he just obtained confirmed his suspicion.

"New invader...wizard civilization?"

The chief of staff stared at the paper in his hand solemnly.

It is filled with the various movements of Vic's cannon fodder slaves and maids over the past few months.

Of course, this also includes the "notice" conference a few months ago.

During these days, they made no attempt to contact the intruder.

The reason is simple.

The attitude of the intruder is really unclear, and rash contact may cause considerable danger.

And the other party communicated with the nobles immediately.

This is definitely not a good thing for them.

But if he combines the contents of these intelligence, he can now draw a worrying conclusion.

That is, these invaders may not intend to completely control and exploit the people in their steam world.

Instead, they want to find some agents here, and then let the agents help them protect the intruder's own interests.

This is an opportunity for the resistance, but the corresponding risks have become greater.

If they take the initiative to expose themselves, but the invaders from another world look down upon them, but directly inform the nobles of their existence.

Then they will be completely under siege.

The current Southern Continent is not as chaotic and loose as before.

Although only a few months have passed, in these few months, the most basic order has been established and consolidated.

At least if the nobles want to fully pursue them in the southern continent, they can still do it.

On the other hand, if those invaders feel that they are more suitable to become the leaders of steam civilization than the nobles.

Then they can get a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and unimaginable benefits.

Not only is there hope to replace the original southern continent's ruling class, but even further development is not impossible.

Should we take the risk and try to contact the invaders of the wizarding civilization?

The chief of staff hesitated.

Logically speaking, he can decide on his own to a certain extent the strategic actions of the resistance organization's diplomacy.

But such an important matter must not be so casual.

If something happened, he couldn't bear the responsibility.

It was precisely because of this that he convened this action meeting for the senior leaders of the resistance to discuss it together. Among them, the opinions of the resistance leader Suraya are very important.

Although the organizational structure of the resistance is relatively decentralized, Suraya, as the actual leader and spiritual leader, is quite prestigious in the resistance.

There is a high probability that the final outcome of this meeting will depend on her thoughts.

Because they currently have too little information about all parties, no matter what choice they make, it is actually a big gamble.

If the bet wins, everyone is happy; if the bet loses, everyone is finished together.

Of course, it is also possible that the invaders don't want to care about them at all, but leave it to the local nobles in the steam world to deal with it.

This is also a bad situation for the Resistance.

Because after losing their concealment, it is difficult for the rebels to defeat the regular army to a certain extent.

It is almost an impossible task to capture the city in one fell swoop while the opponent is alert.

At that time, they may only be able to try to compromise, coexist with the nobles to a certain extent, and wait for an opportunity to rebel one day in the future.

I just don’t know if the nobles will give them a chance.

All I can say is that there is little hope.

Therefore, this decision seems extremely important.

Extend your head and cut your head, then shrink your head and cut your head.

If you don't choose, you are likely to die slowly.

If you choose, there is only a glimmer of hope.

…

"Hey, can't these damn intruders stop for a while?"

"The previous group of Cavers have just left, and now a stronger group of wizard civilization has arrived."

"Wizard civilization...Wizard civilization..."

"What kind of monsters are they!"

A resistance officer wearing a high-level combat uniform hammered the table, feeling a little desperate.

The benefits and disadvantages brought by the different attitudes of these new invaders are naturally not difficult to understand for the top leaders of the resistance army who are in a meeting.

They all frowned and were very troubled by this.

The resistance army was born when the internal power of the steam world was empty after the withdrawal of the Carver civilization.

They actually had the idea of ​​resisting the invaders and revitalizing the steam civilization a long time ago.

But due to the strong pressure of the Carver civilization, they have never dared to take organized actions.

But compared with the Carver civilization, the new wizard civilization is obviously more powerful.

It is absolutely impossible for them to succeed in any armed confrontation.

Compared with the previous one, the only advantage is that these invaders who claim to be wizard civilizations seem to look down on their steam world.

There is only one so-called wizard in the entire southern continent.

This is what they learned from some public or semi-public information.

And it is also very simple to resolve the current situation. It is enough to convince that wizard.

The problem is, from which direction to start?

If we really do nothing and just show our identities, the chances of losing the bet are too high.

…

"Okay, stop frowning."

Just when the conference room was quiet and only the sound of papers flipping was heard.

Suraiya, who was sitting in the first seat, suddenly spoke.

"Since the situation has come to this point, let's face the reality."
