Volume 6 Chapter 151 - Attacks On The Sea (1/2)

Quincy Rachel knitted his brows to look at the map.

“It’s because of the iron mines in the Samarant Duchy?”

“That’s right.” Garn Sauron nodded with a smile, “In my opinion, this Duke Winnes actually is quite perceptive and decisive. He can determine that steel will be the most important material in the magic machine industry in this short period of time before decisively using the military magic machines we gave him to attack the Samarant Duchy, this really is admirable.”

Quincy Rachel carefully looked at the map for a bit before slowly nodding.

“You’re right. The Winnes Duchy almost has no iron mines at all and they even only have a few Magic Crystal mines. If they want to develop their magic machine industry, they will be very limited by these natural conditions. The Samarant Duchy is very rich in these resources and the Winnes Duchy had risked it all to attack the Samarant Duchy, so you can really say that Duke Winnes is decisive.”

“It isn’t just this, I suspect that he took this chance to show his determination to sir chairman, even…..forcing sir chairman to express his stance…..” Garn Sauron said in a deep voice.

“Un? Why do you think this?” Quincy Rachel was instantly surprised.

Garn Saurojn tapped on the Winnes Duchy on the map and said in a thoughtful voice, “Quincy, you’ve also met Duke Winnes, do you think that he’s an impulsive person?”

“No, he should be a very capable man no matter how you look at him.” Quincy Rachel shook his head, “Of course, this is what he should have as the duke.”

“You’re right.” Garn Sauron nodded, “Although I appreciate that he can see that the core of the magic machine industry lies in seizing various resources and has such shocking willingness to act, if you think carefully about how he had attacked the Samarant Duchy, he wouldn’t choose to do this with the Winnes Duchy’s current situation.”

“The safer way is to keep working with our company and increasing the level of their magic machine industry, getting more and better military magic machines from our company. Once he has built up his strength, then he should move. After all, with the Winnes Duchy’s situation, it hasn’t reached the point where they need to wage war to steal resources just yet, right?”

Quincy Rachel was silent for a bit before giving a nod.

“That’s right, but Garn, why do you mean by forcing sir chairman to express his stance?”

“The Winnes Duchy is one of the first partners that we announced last time, while also being the first country to reach a second grade magic machine industry ranking. When it comes to sir chairman’s plan, they are a very good representative country. Look, sir chairman even awarded them with some high level military magic machines as encouragement, which shows that they are viewed differently for him. So Duke Winnes daring to take such a risk should be deliberate because as the representative country for our company’s plan, sir chairman would be biased towards them.”

“Then you mean…..sir chairman will support him?” Quincy Rachel knitted his brows to ask, “I feel that with sir chairman’s normal temper, he might teach this restless fellow a lesson that he would never forget.”

Garn Sauron gave a bitter laugh and slowly shook his head.

“No, I don’t think so. I feel that…..sir chairman had already expected this, so he deliberately sent this batch of high level military magic machines as a reward to the Winnes Duchy. It’s to support Duke Winnes in doing this.”

“It can’t be, right?” Quincy Rachel was stunned, “Hasn’t sir chairman always been a firm supporter of peace? Why would he……”

“Who told you that sir chairman is a supporter of peace?” Garn Sauron glared at him, “You think that someone who supports peace would provoke the Magicians Guild’s headquarters?”

“This……” Quincy Rachel’s face twitched, “It can’t be said that sir chairman provoked them, right? It’s clearly the Magicians Guild headquarters forcing our company, so sir chairman had no choice but to fight back.”

“But if sir chairman acted peacefully enough, this matter would haven’t gone this far, right?” Garn Sauron spread his hand, “Look, the Magicians Guild has already torn all face with our company and many countries that are deeply involved with the Magicians Guild have put our company on the do not welcome list. Actually, there are times that I feel that I don’t understand, it’s impossible that sir chairman doesn’t understand the consequences of doing this, so why is he so determined to do this?”

Quincy Rachel was silent for a bit before giving a sigh and shaking his head, “We shouldn’t be trying to guess what sir chairman is thinking. As subordinates, we should just do our own work.”

Garn Sauron stretched out a finger and shook it in front of Quincy Rachel before saying while laughing, “Don’t assume that I’m blaming sir chairman behind his back. Actually, I appreciate sir chairman’s methods very much. If we can’t face the Magicians Guild, how can our company steal the important magicians from the control of the Magicians guild? Don’t you think so?”

Quincy Rachel rolled his eyes at Garn Sauron, “Alright, before you go crazy, I still urge you to study the safety of our route first. The company headquarters gave the latest warning, according to the latest information, the Magicians Guild is working with some countries and organizations in secret to cause trouble for our company. People like us who wander outside should be more vigilant.”

Garn Sauron curled his lips in disdain, “No matter how powerful the Magicians Guild is, can they take care of us on these vast seas? I don’t believe that there is a fleet that can resist the powerful attack of our guard fleet on these wide seas in this world.”

Quincy Rachel wanted to refute him, but he felt that he was right because the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s guard fleet were invincible on the seas, so there was nothing to worry about.

So he shook his head and didn’t say anything else.

The Winnes Duchy was at least three thousand kilometers away from the Stantine Duchy in a straight line, a sea route would be over four thousand kilometers.

Although the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s Magic Ships were fast, a single trip would take a week.

After leaving the Winnes Duchy harbour, the fleet went deeper into the seas and headed west when they were around seventy kilometers away from the shore.

The sea route the Frestech Chamber of Commerce developed with the Candra Empire’s navy was limited to the southern seas of the Candra Empire, it hasn’t developed to the deep seas yet, so the fleet needed to sail around a thousand kilometers before they could reach where the Frestech Chamber of Commerce controlled the signal, where they could contact the Frestech Chamber of Commerce’s guard fleet and the Candra Empire’s navy.
