Chapter 367
(Sorry, I had something temporary at home these past few days, I will make up for the missed updates in the next few days)
Rin Tohsaka: "However, why did you suddenly have such an idea?"】
Feng Xi: "Idiot, resources, resources."】
Feng Xi: "These resources in Albion are like resources like ore and oil, they are non-renewable, dig as much as you can. How many years has the Clock Tower been developing Albion, how many resources do you think are left on it?"】
Rin Tohsaka: "I see, the resources on it are almost empty, so we must continue to develop downwards."】
Waver: "This is profit. As long as there is profit, even dangerous things can be tried."】
Kayneth: "However, this plan is not so easy to pass."】
Rin Tohsaka: "Why?"】
Kairi Sisigou: "Limited ability, little girl, if the Clock Tower had the ability to continue developing downwards, do you think they would stop developing?"】
The limit of the Clock Tower's development of Albion is 80, 00 meters underground, which is the head of the Albion dragon.】
Being able to reach here is largely thanks to the Crown Dragon Albion, otherwise, with human strength, it would be impossible to chisel to here at all.】
【Second: "I investigated the market price of the main spell bodies that can be collected from the labyrinth, and it has soared very high in the last ten years. In other words, this can naturally be interpreted as a decrease in the mining volume of the labyrinth, right? Then, the idea of making up for the decline in production with redevelopment will naturally appear."】
【Magdanyl: "I see, it makes sense. Do you have any other insights?"】
【Second: "I heard that the labyrinth might have smuggling. In that case, redeveloping the facilities is also an effective way to prevent smuggling. If it doesn't go through the Crown Resolution, even Trambelio can't make a move on the Spirit Tomb of Albion, right?"】
【Magdanyl drank a sip of the red wine at hand and nodded: "Hmm, the smuggling problem has been a topic from time to time since before. Considering the structure of the Spirit Tomb of Albion, it should be impossible in principle... However, we don't fully know that huge labyrinth, and we can't completely deny the possibility that someone is smuggling somewhere."】
【"Precisely because of this, we need to re-examine various facilities. As long as redevelopment work is carried out at the same time to increase the supply of spell bodies, research can also gain momentum. Don't you think doing so is killing two birds with one stone?"】
【Second: "In history, the redevelopment plan for the Spirit Tomb of Albion should have been discussed many times. The discussants at that time were the Lords of the generations before us, which means that everyone has been looking forward to the benefits of redeveloping Albion since before?"】
【"However, every discussion was shelved because it might cause the depletion of labyrinth resources. The danger of the labyrinth itself is already very high, and the danger will increase as we enter the unexplored areas for the sake of redevelopment. Even if we are committed to the redevelopment plan, it is difficult to judge whether the plan can proceed smoothly."】
【Magdanyl: "Of course, that's because I think it can be done now. Rather, now is the best time. The mystery we maintain will gradually decline with the trend of the times no matter what. Listen, if it is in this era, we still have enough mystery to challenge the labyrinth, and the Clock Tower as a whole can be well prepared, providing sufficient support from the ground. As for whether the next generation can do this, I have doubts about this. Yes, as the Democratic faction of the Clock Tower, I think this is the moment to promote the redevelopment plan of the Spirit Tomb of Albion!"】
【Inorai interrupted: "Hey, hey, summarizing the above statement as the policy of the entire Democratic faction is too much, Magdanyl?"】
【Magdanyl's words just now were indeed out of proportion, even if everyone belongs to the Democratic faction.】
【Magdanyl: "What a headache, I originally thought the beautiful Lord Valerius would agree with my opinion."】
【Inorai: "I am not opposed to it, little brother Magdanyl. However, as the leader of Valerius, I hope to have more information to judge. For the policy of the Clock Tower and the direction of modern mages, what is correct? We need to determine it clearly without slackening, right?"】
【Magdanyl: "Being rated as lazy, I can't stand it."】
【"Ah, mother told me that our family follows the will of Lord Valerius."】
【Melvin, who has always been a transparent person, also interrupted at this time.】
Kayneth: "Hehe, sure enough."】
Waver: "Not many people are willing to agree with this proposal, even Valerius, who belongs to the same faction, is a bit wavering."】
Kayneth: "After all, this involves a lot of interests."】
【Magdanyl: "The leader of Wayne's said so. Hmm, I certainly understand Inorai's meaning. Information is currently being collected. I promise to collect enough information before the Crown Resolution."】
【Reines: "As expected of Lord Trambelio."】
【Second: "In that case, as Lord Valerius said, please let us read that information before making a judgment. If it can be read at the Crown Resolution, it should also be a useful material for other Lords."】
【"Sigh, is the situation supposed to become like this?"】
【Magdanyl scratched his head and said helplessly: "However, this is an opportunity. The Spirit Tomb of Albion is, as the name implies, the foundation of the Clock Tower. When changes happen there, we naturally have to change. Moreover, if we hope for good changes, now is the best time."】
【"In short, this time I want to inform you of this process. If you were suddenly notified at the Crown Resolution, you would probably feel troubled, right?"】
【"The date of the Crown Resolution should be decided soon. Anyway, every Lord already knows about it, so it will be decided within a week."】
【"I am looking forward to it."】
【Inorai smiled and drank the red wine in one gulp.】
【Second: "I hope the two will be merciful."】
【After the meal, the two were taken to a guest room by Melvin to rest.】
【Although he was very unhappy about Melvin selling him out, the Second still said thank you.】
【At the very least, he doesn't have to wait until the Crown Resolution to know about this and be passive.】
【At the same time, the situation where the Crown Resolution and Heartless's actions coincided so coincidentally doesn't look like a coincidence at all.】
【The Second has reason to suspect that there are still Heartless's partners in the Clock Tower.】
【Because Zepia reminded him before leaving that Heartless is his enemy, but not necessarily the enemy of the Clock Tower.】
Rin Tohsaka: "Does this count as a statement?"】
Waver: "Of course not, whether it's me or Lord Valerius, it's considered coping."】
Kayneth: "After all, if you make a statement now, it will be difficult to meet with the teacher later."】
Lord Yulifeis "Lufreus Nazare Yulifeis" is Kayneth's teacher and Sola's father.】
Waver: "I'm afraid the other party will also use this relationship to talk about things."】
Kayneth: "That's right."】
Waver: "But what is the purpose of the other party finding us, is it to oppose Albion's redevelopment plan, or is there another purpose?"】
Kayneth: "This, who knows."】
【Time came to noon the next day, hotel.】
【"Wow, the teacher died so thoroughly!"】
【Gray brought Yvette here, and as soon as the other party saw the Second lying on the sofa, she shouted directly.】
【Reines, Flat, and Svin are not there; they continue to investigate Heartless and the Crown Resolution.】
【As for Aozaki Touko, this woman disappeared directly after happily listening to the Second's report for a while yesterday, which is very consistent with her style.】
【The Second sat up exhausted and said: "The meeting made me a bit tired."】
【Yvette: "How about this, I can help you recover your energy in bed. It's popular for mages to supply energy by connecting magic circuits through stimulating drugs and sexual experience, why don't the Modern Magecraft Department try to introduce it?"】
Caules: "Pfft—is there such a saying..."】
Fiore: "What's wrong, Caules, did you think of Fran?"】
Caules: "Sister! What nonsense are you talking about!"】
Ken-nyan: "???"】
Sola: "Pah! How shameless!"】
Iskandar: "Hahaha, kid, people are so proactive, just follow them."】
Waver: "..."
Second: "..."
【Second: "Let's stop the jokes here, how is the matter I entrusted to you going?"】
【Yvette: "Hmm, the teacher doesn't understand the mood of the magic eye girl nowadays! However, little Yvette, who is loyal and a cheap spy to hire, will answer you! The neutral faction including Meuniere doesn't seem to attend the Crown Resolution this time."】
【"Is that so?"】
【The Second breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Those who will be the first to buy spell bodies excavated from Albion are originally the Aristocratic faction and the Democratic faction with more abundant funds. Although it can't be called a poor organization, for the neutral faction that is only interested in research, the difficulty of obtaining rights is very high now. I thought there was an 80% chance they would do this, it is worth being happy to be able to confirm this point for the time being."】
【"Ah, I have another thing to report to the teacher."】
【Yvette took a sip of the tea handed by Gray, and as if thinking of something, said: "Atram Galiasta, who flew to the Far East to participate in the Fifth Holy Grail War, is said to be dead."】
Waver: "!!!"】
Rin Tohsaka: "Hmm! That arrogant guy, died so quickly! It's only been a few days?"】
Tokiomi Tohsaka: "The Fifth Holy Grail War, is it so fierce?"】
Waver: "It's more than fierce, it's dangerous."】
Rin Tohsaka: "Could it be faking death?"】
Feng Xi: "Do you think that guy's personality would do this?"】
Rin Tohsaka: "... o."】
Judging from the time in the video, this Atram should have just stepped on Fuyuki with his front foot, and hung up not long after his back foot.】
No, is this Fifth War so fierce, killing one first as soon as it starts.】
