Chapter 2532: The Lone Commander

Under the new rules, once those people band together, although their numbers do not account for two-thirds, they still exceed one-third; it can be said that from now on, nothing can be passed without their consent.

Therefore, even if Xia Duo agreed to sell 【Mythallar】 to councilors originating from the Tianshui Three Planes, the Seven Towers would not agree, and other Main Plane councilors would not agree either.

In fact, before the Tianshui Three Planes were connected to the Main Plane, the Seven Towers had already discussed the 【Mythallar】 issue with Xia Duo, and both sides reached a consensus: for a short time, 【Mythallar】 would not be sold to any councilor originating from the Tianshui Three Planes.

As for how long this "short time" actually is, both sides did not set a specific time, but rather determined it based on the actual situation of the people from the Tianshui Three Planes integrating into the Main Plane.

Besides 【Mythallar】, there are many other areas where the Main Plane can exert leverage over the Tianshui Three Planes, for example, the distribution of Mithril; in the past, the Tianshui Three Planes were completely controlled by the Seven Towers, and all resources were also controlled by the Seven Towers.

In other words, those twenty-some councilors from the Tianshui Three Planes, apart from the people themselves, have nothing else; it can basically be understood that they originally belonged to the Seven Towers and have now separated to strike out on their own.

It is similar to how Saville went to the Nan Jing pioneer territory with nothing in the past; not to say they are destitute, but at the very least, they are completely incomparable to the Great Arcanists of the Main Plane.

Therefore, the process by which those Tianshui Three Planes councilors obtain vassals and resources is actually also the process of their integration into the Main Plane.

And in this process, even without the interference of the Seven Towers or other Main Plane councilors, it is highly probable that they will spontaneously differentiate into different factions.

And now, whether it is the Seven Towers or Xia Duo, neither is actually willing to see them band together.

After all, before today, the councilors have had more or less exchanges with other councilors and roughly know what everyone's opinions are; if it is certain that it cannot pass, and this topic is not very necessary or urgent for oneself, then temporarily giving up is not a bad choice.

……

The Arcanist is not actually wanting to obtain a 【Mythallar】 immediately, but wants to confirm this "qualification of possession," ensuring that it can be possessed in the future.

As far as I know, currently in Netheril on the Main Plane, there are only three known Mythallars; one is in the hands of the Seven Towers, having become the Energy Core of Xin Saiwendun.

This thing simply has no defective products; as long as it can operate, it is a qualified product.

Very quickly, all adjustments related to the topics were completed, and in this process, the relevant procedures were also confirmed; what followed was the formal meeting.

Only in this way can the yield rate be guaranteed; in fact, 【Mythallar】 does not have a yield rate in the ordinary sense. If it is unqualified, it will disintegrate directly when the last step of the manufacturing process is started, unlike ordinary products that can still be sold as seconds.

"Understood, understood."

It is possible, but currently the construction period is tight; even if a new order is accepted, it is very difficult to put it into production immediately.

"Is there anything that needs to be changed? If not, then once we are outside, we will follow this procedure and order."

Next was to confirm the specific procedures. Badijiaer read through the topics he had drafted in advance, which were all in the previous meeting outline, then introduced the topics submitted by each councilor, and then asked everyone:

……

After Badijiaer finished speaking, a councilor immediately proposed, "I need to adjust the order of the topics, move the topic I submitted to the front, hmm—let's move it to the third!"

So after hearing about the corresponding situation, the Arcanist leaned toward Xia Duo without any hesitation; he could foresee that the future would be the era of 【Mythallar】.

"Good, then it is settled. The third topic is the Western Development Plan submitted by Councilor Ka En, and other topics will be shifted accordingly. Is there anything else that needs to be changed?"

And Xia Duo also adjusted his own motion, changing "Open up free migration for all territory residents within Netheril" to "Each territory should formulate clear and specific laws regarding the promotion and migration of free citizens."

Or it could be said that what follows is a performance by the rulers under the new order in front of the public, mainly showing the operation mode of the new order and the consensus of the Netheril rulers. Badijiaer asked again, so some councilors adjusted the topics they submitted, either modifying them, adjusting the order, or even withdrawing them.

Of course, Xia Duo's other motion regarding "Suggesting the addition of remote meeting forms for council meetings and plenary meetings, and determining the meeting form before each meeting" was also retained, though it did not mention any Tower of Time plan.

This was not entirely a stalling tactic; in fact, even for the current orders, Xia Duo does not have much time to complete them. If it weren't for the signed contracts, he would even want to resell these orders to the Seven Towers.

The first plenary meeting of the Seventon Council is of extraordinary significance. If the first one results in a failure to pass, those who don't care naturally won't mind, but those who care about this point naturally hope that this will not happen to them.

"Councilor Ka En wants to move the topic to the third; do those of you in front have any objections?"

That legendary Chang'an City, the Arcanist had heard of it while in the Golden Plain Plane, and was even more shocked after seeing it with his own eyes; such a behemoth was supported by 【Mythallar】.

"That is as it should be." Almost everyone agreed.

So when that councilor from the Golden Plain Plane asked Xia Duo again whether he could reserve a 【Mythallar】, Xia Duo's answer remained—

In fact, even without onlookers, as Great Arcanists standing at the pinnacle of Netheril, scenes like shrews cursing in the street rarely occur between them.

And combining it with the "restricting lords from disposing of residents at will (mainly referring to negative treatment)" proposed by Niya, it counts as a motion jointly initiated by the two.

One is with Kelifu, and Kelifu intends to use it to build a magnificent Temple; the remaining one is undoubtedly in the hands of Xia Duo.

Of course, to avoid the councilor from the Golden Plain Plane overthinking, Xia Duo still explained a few words, "【Mythallar】 involves over a million elements, and manufacturing is not easy. I hope Councilor Arcanist can understand."

The biggest bottleneck in 【Mythallar】 manufacturing is not the materials, but the Great Arcanist as the manufacturer themselves. Due to the excessive production elements and the overly precise production process, only a Great Arcanist can do it personally, and it is best if one person does it alone.

But he had mentioned the Tower of Time plan when communicating with various councilors before; as long as this topic is passed, it will not be difficult to operate the adoption of the Tower of Time plan later.

"The meeting later will be held at the Arcane Plaza. Besides the actual participating councilors and lords, there are also a large number of mass representatives watching. I hope everyone will maintain their demeanor when speaking and safeguard the unity of the Council."

"None."

Without a Mythallar, there is no instant and convenient War Spell movement platform, no sufficient deterrent power, and naturally no sufficient volume of voice or right to speak.

With the arrival of the last few Seven Towers councilors, Badijiaer began to confirm the meeting procedures with everyone, mainly emphasizing the meeting principles mentioned in the meeting outline previously sent to everyone.
