Chapter 1591 The King's Speech

[Latest report] Tomorrow is 515, the anniversary of Qidian, the day with the most benefits. In addition to gift bags and school bags, you must watch the 515 red envelopes this time. There is no reason not to grab the red envelopes. Set your alarm clock~

Downton snapped his fingers, and the map hanging on the wall of the castle hall, where the Great Wall was located, lit up.

"You're not mistaken?"

Many people stood up in shock and stared at the map in astonishment.

The Great Wall, one of the three natural wonders, is actually an interdimensional transmitter of Titan? This is really ridiculous!

"This joke is a bit cheap!"

Archduke Dupont curled his lips, if his own intelligence system was backward and he didn't find it, then forget about it. Are those of other wealthy families just decorations?

"I, Saint Lily, have never told a lie since I was born!" Saint Lily's tone became stern, staring at Dupont, "You want to duel with me?"

"Haha, how is that possible?"

Dupont changed the subject.

Everyone was silent.

How many years has the Great Wall of Despair existed? At least millions of years, and documents with clear historical records can be traced back to the Age of Giants.

A facility that can launch across planes, you can even imagine on your knees what a brilliant cutting-edge technology it represents, but it has been wasted for such a long time.

Every person in power present looked regretful. Even if they died once, they could not offset this loss.

"Well, if it's a Titan launcher, that's a prehistoric-built device, how do you guarantee that they'll function properly?"

Archduke Hohenzollern asked.

Saint Lily wanted to explain, but Downton stopped her, "Elaine, you introduce me!"

"Through Dvořák's heart, my brother received part of the Titan knowledge inheritance. He can repair the transmitter."

Elaine stood up and, as a representative, gave a generous explanation.

Saint Lily pursed her lips. She knew that Downton was doing it for her own good. After all, the Saint's position should be fair and just. Otherwise, it would undermine her majesty, but she didn't care.

There was sudden silence again, everyone was speculating on how much cutting-edge technology Delankfurt had mastered, and whether it would become the tenth largest empire.

"If I join your plan, can I share my Titan knowledge?"

After careful consideration, Rockefeller asked.

Everyone's eyes were suddenly fixed on Downton.

"certainly!"

Downton nodded.

“How open will you be?”

Rockefeller refused to give up.

"Depending on your contribution."

Downton inspected the whole place, "Don't worry. These promises will be written into the United King's Contract."

"Then, I'll join!"

After Rockefeller expressed his stance, he leaned back on his chair and closed his eyes. He was a wealthy member of the Kuta Magic Empire, and this empire, just like its name, relied on magic technology to build a country, and the cutting-edge technology it mastered ranked first among other countries.

Once this advantage is lost, the status will plummet.

This kind of decision was so important that the kings could not make up their minds. They could only discuss it with their respective allies.

"Even if you have an interdimensional launcher that can land on the Peak of Despair, how many people can you take there? That's the evil god's lair, and it's definitely easy to defend and difficult to attack!"

Archduke Dupont, who received the signal from Floris's eyes, raised his objection again.

"One hundred thousand people!"

After Downton reported the numbers, the originally noisy atmosphere immediately became quiet. Everyone present lost interest. One hundred thousand people? One million people. None of them felt that they could conquer the Peak of Despair.

"Plane launchers are not unlimited airdrops. The so-called surprise attack means taking them by surprise. After the first wave of airdrops, of course, you can also launch the landing module, but the evil god army must have prepared the emergency response, so the soldiers who airborne afterward will have a narrow escape."

Downton explained.

"For jihad, death is inevitable."

The Archduke of St. York, who has always been known for his straightforwardness, added that this is actually the voice of others. If the success rate can be increased, it doesn't matter how many people die.

"Please don't underestimate these 100,000 people. In order to kill the evil god, I hope you will send out your ace army at the bottom of the box."

Downton spoke sincerely.

The kings did not speak, but the hypocritical smiles that overflowed from the corners of their mouths already explained everyone's attitude. Are you kidding me? Each family's trump card is the foundation for ensuring the existence of the family. Who would leave it to you to waste?

"Downton!"

Di Lanxue persuaded her that she was afraid that the plan would succeed because it would mean that Downton would die.

"Everyone, in order to increase the combat effectiveness of the surprise attack corps, I will issue a magic light wheel to every soldier."

Downton had already guessed the attitude of these people, so he prepared a backup plan.

"what is that?"

Dupont frowned. The new terms that kept popping up in Downton's mouth made them confused and made them feel like idiots.

"The miniaturized Star-Lord of Flame can also be understood as the God of Magical Machines, and can be used by a single soldier!"

As soon as Downton's words came out, the whole audience burst into shock.

"What?"

Floris was the first to stand up and looked at Downton in shock. The magical weapon god developed by Heinrich was the trump card of the Schuppelong family, and he had been working on miniaturization without success.

, I didn’t expect Downton to do it.

"Drankfurt already has this technology?"

"I heard that Downton has borrowed a lot of cutting-edge scientific and technological talents from several countries such as Great Britain. Even if it is not developed successfully, it is almost there."

"It's too scary. Soldiers equipped with the Flame Star-Lord cannot even be stopped by super-level monsters, right?"

The kings are worried, and strong armed forces always make people fearful.

Downton bent his fingers, knocked on the table, and said in a calm tone, "Of course, as compensation to the Allies, I will share this technology!"

All the discussions disappeared. Hundreds of kings and heads of wealthy families in the hall looked at Downton. They were confused at first, thinking they had heard wrong. Then they were shocked, then excited, and then helpless. That expression

, it’s like watching a wealthy heir squander tens of billions of inheritance overnight.

"He is definitely a prodigal!"

"If I were Downton's father, I would crawl out of the grave in anger and strangle him to death."

"But this seems to be the wealth that Downton saved himself!"

Muttering, whispering, this time, many kings raised their hands, especially those from second-rate countries. They hoped to use this cutting-edge technology to extend their reign.

"What are you doing this for?"

Di Lanxue stared at Downton blankly. There was worry and admiration in her eyes, but most of all, she was admiration. This is a man who has the world in his heart!

"To end the war as soon as possible!"

Downton replied.

The hall fell into silence once again, and some kings who still had some sense of shame looked embarrassed and ashamed. Compared with the noble Downton, they were a group of despicable people who only cared about their own interests.

"These people can still be fought for."

Homer suggested, "But you're such a shady guy. It's obvious that Frankfurt can't support the huge investment in research and development!"

"This kind of technology cannot be exclusive. Whoever owns it will be waiting to be destroyed by other empires. Furthermore, if I want to attack the Peak of Despair, I can only cooperate with them. Instead of sharing it for nothing, why not

First, let’s squeeze out a lot of human and financial resources!”

Downton curled his lips, what is the miniaturized Star-Lord of Flame? After getting the metal heart, even the large-scale Star-Lord is not impossible to imitate.

Of course, the development of small-scale products is also about accumulating technology and training talents. It can be said that Downton is using everyone's money to build technical reserves for itself.

"How to distribute it? Everyone can't get the same thing, right?"

Rockefeller was more serious.

"Of course it's based on contribution!" Elaine explained, "Brother can't arm these top-notch equipment to other brands, right?"

"Downton, please make your statement!"

Queen Liv interrupted everyone's discussion, which was the practice of the king's meeting to persuade the participants.

"Everyone, please read history. The longest of the seven holy wars lasted twenty-eight years. The shortest lasted twelve years. Are you prepared for a long-term war?"

Downton stood up and spoke sincerely, "In the seven holy wars, a great Holy Coffin led the continental coalition forces to fight against the Evil God Army, but it was still so time-consuming. What about us? Nothing!"

The kings were silent and glanced at Downton. In fact, if Downton hadn't come out of nowhere, the current situation would have been extremely bad.

"After the evil god awakened, he became stronger each time, and the same goes for his legions. This time, we lost Lombardy, which has never fallen before!"

"Even if the coalition performs at a divine level and has a large number of talents, and it takes the same number of years to win the Holy War, the military expenditures consumed and the number of soldiers lost in the war will still be an astronomical figure, and it will take hundreds of years to recover."

"If the surprise attack plan succeeds, its value will be immeasurable. Gentlemen, we must give it a try. Even if it fails, given the current situation, we can still afford it!"



Downton lists the pros and cons one after another, so perfect that it is impossible to refute.

"Everyone, I have finished speaking."

This means it's time for questions.

As expected, Archduke Dupont was the first to raise his hand.

"please!"

Elaine made a gesture of invitation.

"Do you have a budget?"

DuPont is indeed a treacherous charlatan, and the most pointed question comes up. Having said all that, the question that everyone is most concerned about is how much money is spent.

"The initial investment is 200 billion gold coins."

The figures in the Downton newspaper immediately made everyone's eyelids jump. At least second-rate countries felt quite pressured to bear the burden.

"This includes the repair of the Titan launcher, the development and improvement of the first-generation battle armor of the Flame Star-Lord, the reserve of strategic materials, and the establishment of a training base for super magic soldiers..."

Downton's description made many people nod. All this money is necessary.

"You've said so much, but it seems like it takes a long time to prepare?"

The Archduke of Bourbon frowned. He wanted to see the effect as soon as possible, otherwise if it drags on, who knows where Downton spent the gold coins?

"That's why we must concentrate the power of the entire continent to build this surprise attack regiment. The maximum time limit is one year. If it cannot go out by then, Delankfurt will automatically dismember it to compensate for the losses of all allies, and I will also die to apologize.

."

Downton spoke firmly.

"Downton!"

Di Lanxue and Sissi were startled.

“Are there rules on budget shares?”

Rockefeller interjected.

"Every country has a limit that it can afford based on its comprehensive ranking. If it cannot reach it, sorry, it will be kicked out. Of course, if you are willing to spend more, you can start to do it. In return, you will have more successes.

."

Downton explained, "The budget includes not only money, but also talents, minerals, etc."
