Chapter 836: Blooming Everywhere

Titan City.

As an industrial city in the west of Bracada, it was originally very prosperous.

There are factories in large areas that can produce a large number of industrial consumer goods every day,

Magic crystal lamps that can illuminate, automatic beds that can rise and fall, fully automatic vibrators...

All kinds of products for enjoyment have brought rich tax revenue to Titan City.

But after the economic crisis in Bracada, Titan City was the first to fall, because the materials produced by Titan City were not necessities of life.

Of course, there are indeed a few creatures that pursue enjoyment or even more than life, but for the vast majority of creatures, when survival becomes difficult, enjoyment will definitely be abandoned first.

Under the impact of the economic crisis, Titan City is in a depression.

Many mages living in Titan City came from remote Acropolis and County City.

They sold their real estate in their hometowns a long time ago, rented houses in Titan City to survive, or paid high loans to buy houses.

If Titan City can continue to prosper, they may work in Titan City for a long time, take root, and eventually become residents of Titan City.

However, now they have become the first victims of the economic crisis.

Countless factories closed down, and a large number of wizards and djinn lost their jobs.

Without work, there is no income, and without income, they cannot pay loans and rents. They were driven out of their homes and wandered on the streets.

Until then, they sadly discovered that they had been homeless for a long time.

A piece of torn paper, a rotten wooden board, a dirty tent, a not-so-big recliner...

They were looking for everything they could find to give them shelter and support them to become lonely ghosts in Titan City.

Sadness and despair enveloped them.

But they were not stupid, they were waiting, waiting for the economy of Bracada to improve.

The long-term affluent life made them believe that this economic predicament was only temporary and would get better sooner or later.

But suddenly one day, they found that the relief office that had distributed food to them was closed.

They could no longer receive relief food.

This is not because Bracada does not issue relief food, but because of the civil war, the price of food in the whole Bracada is rising. The greedy city lord of Titan City could not resist the temptation and resold the relief food and put it in his pocket.

Hunger.

This word that the wizards and djinn had only heard of but never experienced came upon them in an extremely cruel way, catching them off guard.

Whether it is a wizard or a djinn, they have the ability to cast spells and fight. If they are in the wild, they can still survive by hunting.

But this is Titan City. The only wild animals they can find within a radius of dozens of kilometers are goblins.

However, goblins are special life forms. After their meat is cut off, it will only turn into streams and disappear, and cannot be eaten.

Long-term hunger will not only cause malnutrition, but also stimulate the survival instinct of organisms.

Those wizards and djinn are forced to face choices.

Either eat their own kind crazily, or start a rebellion and go to the hands of the wealthy nobles in Titan City to snatch food with their lives.

When the first pair of hungry red eyes stared at the City Lord's Mansion, the surging tide of rebellion was uncontrollable.

"Why! Why can they live in a magnificent house, hug their delicate wives, eat food that we can't afford after working for a whole year, and enjoy life to the fullest.

And we have to live in this cold winter night, starving and chewing grass roots and tree bark?

Those bastards exchanged our life-saving food for gold coins and bought gorgeous bracelets for their concubines.

They are eating our flesh, drinking our blood, and chewing our souls!

Since they won't let us live, we will fight them!

I want to rush in City Lord's Mansion, open the granary of the City Lord's Mansion and eat your fill.

As long as you follow me, I promise that all the food in the granary will be divided equally among everyone, all the gold coins will be divided equally among everyone, and even the wives of the City Lord can be used in turn.

I know that the City Lord is a legendary hero, and you are all afraid of him.

However, we have reached a desperate situation. We will die if we resist, and we will die if we don't resist, so why not try to resist.

What if, what if, we win! "

The first mage stood up and shouted, and the hot flames ignited instantly.

That night, countless mage lamp gods attacked the City Lord's Castle!

If the City Lord of Titan City is a smart man, knowing how to take care of the interests of his subordinates while being greedy, there is no need for the garrison of Titan City to take action. The guards of the City Lord's Castle alone can rely on the defensive buildings of the City Lord's Castle to stop the rebels.

However, the City Lord of Titan City can even do such a thing as reselling relief food. How can he have such a brain?

Those guards had long been fed up with the oppression and capriciousness of the city lord, and they had no choice but to be subordinate to him.

So, facing the attack of the rebels, the guards of the city lord's castle not only did not defend with all their heart, but quietly opened the gate of the city lord's castle.

The rebel army rushed in unimpeded.

Until this time, they had no way out.

Even if they retreated now, they would be liquidated by the city lord in the future.

Only by killing the city lord can they have a chance to survive.

Therefore, facing the legendary city lord, they were like bloodthirsty jackals, fearlessly launching charges again and again.

No matter how powerful a legendary hero is, if there is no help from the army, it is just a stronger army.

His magic will be exhausted, his arrows will be used up, and his physical strength and willpower have their limits.

And the chubby Titan City Lord who just got up from the bed had long neglected the training of his own combat power in the midst of decadence.

Facing countless fearless wizards and djinn, he couldn't even escape.

When his magic shield was broken, countless frost, flames, lightning, and ground spikes continued to emerge from his body, piercing his heart and dying.

In the end, he became the first city lord of Bracada to die at the hands of the rebels.

And Titan City also became the first city in Bracada to spontaneously rebel.

The city lord of Titan City died with his eyes open. Until the moment he died, he couldn't understand why the garrison of the military camp had not arrived, even though he had persisted for so long.

…

…

The turmoil in Titan City had just begun, and it was seen by the goblins hiding in dark alleys, cellars and other dead corners of the city.

When the turmoil occurred, countless intelligence was passed to Qi Ge through the conch.

Under Qi Ge's command, the fairies acted quickly.

They set fire to the military camp, created the illusion that the camp was attacked, destroyed the city gate, blocked the army's advance, used fairies to spread information to the troops, and caused the troops to riot...

Various measures successfully delayed the army supporting the city lord's castle, and also made the city lord of Titan City lose the possibility of turning the tables.

It was not until Qi Ge confirmed that the Yasha fire in Titan City had been taken over by the rebels that he was completely relieved.

The defenders of Titan City failed to protect the city lord, leading to the fall of Titan City.

According to the laws of Bracada, once Titan City was suppressed, they would be convicted or even executed for poor defense of the city.

In order to survive, they would have to cooperate with the rebels.

The matter was settled, and Titan City had no room for maneuver and could only rebel to the end.

The rebellion of Titan City meant that rebellious cities appeared on both the east and west lines of Bracada at the same time.

The military system of Bracada is very special.

Except for a very small number of central troops, most of the troops are funded by the lords themselves and belong to the lords' private army.

This can greatly reduce the central military expenditure in normal times, allowing the central army to use all funds to build elite troops.

With enough elite troops, Thunder City can easily suppress local rebellions.

But at this time, the biggest drawback of this system was finally exposed.

When rebellions occur in many places and the central army has no way to solve them quickly, Thunder City will face a very difficult problem of insufficient troops!

If the central army is insufficient, the task of suppressing the rebellion can only be handed over to local lords.

However, in Bracada, suppressing rebellion wars and foreign wars are different.

In suppressing rebellion wars, the war rewards that lords can get are very limited and will lose money.

In Bracada, which encourages business, local autonomy, and the central parliament as the core of the country, all actions are business actions!

The key point is that all actions are business actions, including wars.

And the essence of business behavior is to make money. Because unprofitable and loss-making business activities will lead to the death of business entities.

Even if some business activities seem to be loss-making now, that is because these business activities can make more money in the future.

How can the lords be willing to work hard when they know that they will lose money after the war of suppressing the rebellion?

Therefore, if the suppression of the rebellion is handed over to the local lords, the local lords will definitely not work hard, and try their best to pretend, deceive their superiors and subordinates, reduce their own losses, and strive for more benefits.

Even when the Lighthouse City suppressed the rebellion, the central army was watching, and those local lords dared to trade with the rebels in Lighthouse City.

Let them suppress the rebellion on their own, God knows what they can do.

Therefore, Bracada has only two choices at this time.

Either the Bracada central government increases the rewards for local lords to suppress the rebellion, so that the local lords' war income will change from losses to profits, and then hand it over to the local lords to suppress the rebellion in Titan City.

Or, leave Titan City alone, wait until the Lighthouse City is suppressed, and then transfer the central army to continue suppressing the rebellion.

There is a problem with the first plan, that is, the risk problem.

Countering a rebellion is a war, and all war actions are high-risk actions. In business, high risks must correspond to high returns, otherwise no one will do it.

High-risk, low-return business actions can only deceive fools. Local lords who have the ability to suppress rebellions are all legends, and they can't be that stupid.

Just like the stock market and the bank, if you deposit money in the bank, you will definitely make more money than if you put it in the stock market. Who would still speculate in stocks?

Therefore, in order to make the local lords do their best in suppressing the rebellion, the central government of Bracada, that is, the Thunder Temple and the Grand Council, must pay a great price.

Maybe they have to promise the local lords that after the rebellion is successfully suppressed, the city that has been suppressed will be handed over to them.

In the system of Bracada, such a high price must be paid, and a meeting must be held to discuss.

At this time, the permanent members of the Bracada Grand Council who are influential enough are only four [Escher], [Favner], [Dareth], and [Agaide].

The first two are still suppressing the rebellion in Lighthouse City.

The latter two are all people of Seven Pigeons.

What is it called covering the sky with one hand?

Agaide proposed not to give up the interests and wait until the rebellion in Lighthouse City was quelled before taking care of Titan City.

Dairis agreed.

The proposal was passed.

Thunder City didn't care, and the local lord didn't want to care. Titan City, no one cared!

The rebels in Titan City huddled in the city fearfully for a week, making all kinds of preparations, waiting for the harshest trial from Brakada.

The result was a lonely wait.

They were still waiting, but no one would come.

But time will not stand still.

Outside Titan City, a bigger storm is brewing.

…

“Selling newspapers, selling newspapers, Thunder Monthly, looking at the whole country!

Titan City has rebelled! ! Come and see! "

In Maple Leaf City, the goblins selling newspapers were waving newspapers and shouting with great force.

They have never pushed so hard to sell these scraps of paper that have nothing to do with them.

Because they already understood their mission from the moment they got these newspapers.

Running from one alley to another, they never stopped.

The roaring sound is still useful, the carriage passing by, the pedestrians who have just got off work, the old man who has nothing to do...

Many, many people of all kinds bought newspapers one after another from the goblins.

"Hey goblin, stop."

A dirty wizard homeless man blocked the way of a newspaper goblin.

He mercilessly snatched a newspaper from the goblin and kicked the goblin away.

Seeing the goblin rolling on the ground in embarrassment and struggling to get up, he mocked contemptuously and threatened:

"Fairy, when people from your newspaper office ask, you just say it's lost, do you understand?

If you dare to say that I took it, when I come out of the cell, I will break your hands and feet and hang you on a tree to starve to death! "

The mage tramp threatened the poor goblin and then swaggered away.

If there is one missing copy of the newspaper to be sold and the accounts are not paid, the goblin will be severely beaten by the newspaper company.

If it were in the past, the newspaper seller would be squatting in the corner, silently wiping tears.

But now, he just glared at the mage tramp hatefully, adjusted his clothes, and continued to hold up the newspaper and shout, not wanting to waste even a second.

"Titan City has rebelled!! Come and see!"

The goblins screamed at the top of their lungs, colliding in the air and echoing over Brakada.

Like a huge ghost, floating over Bracada.

Thunder Newspaper Company, which publishes newspapers, never dreamed that they only published 3 million copies of newspapers, but the goblins sold 30 million copies!

Underneath every thieves guild, there is a large group of goblins working hard for this purpose.

"Have you heard? Titan City rebelled, but Thunder City didn't care."

…

"You know, the counter-rebels are in big trouble in Beacon City, and Titan's troops suffered heavy casualties."

…

“I’m going to tell you a top-secret news, but you must never tell anyone else.

The God King was attacked by the Lord of the Abyss last time, and the source was injured. The Kingdom of God has been sealed and fell into a deep sleep. Whoever can get the Tears of Asa in Thunder City will be the new God King. "

…

Thanks to the efforts of the goblins, countless rumors that are difficult to distinguish between true and false continue to ferment in Brakada.

The soil of economic crisis grows wildly without anyone's control, and flowers named ambition and sin bloom.

Titan City has made a good start, and countless careerists have made their debut in Brakada!

The seven pigeons located in the God's Chosen City planted red flags on the map of Brakada.

Each red flag represents a city in rebellion.

Starting from Titan City, 18 cities rebelled in less than a month, and this number is still soaring!

"A world full of red flags is coming.

The long-cherished wish of the fairies has begun to come true. "

The red color of blood reflected in Qi Ge's eyes, and he planted a special red flag at the northernmost point of Brakada.

Gaze, Yongshuang Icefield!
