Chapter 280 The Old Leader's Preparation
Today, a piece of news came that shocked observers from various countries. A spellcaster named Roland miraculously launched a coup within the Locke Resistance and ended the rule of the Locke Resistance, replacing it with a new force called the War Council.

Ever since the Green Tide swept across Donnar, all parts of Donnar have fallen into a bottomless abyss. This situation became even worse after the United Army was defeated in a series of conflicts with the Green Tide.

Since Locke came to power, the incompetent rule of the rebels has led to a de facto warlord separatism within the rebels. Factional conflicts have also plunged the rebel center into chaos. The open conflict between local and border factions has further exacerbated the division of the rebels.

However, what none of the forces expected was that Roland, the mysterious spellcaster from the North, seemed to have instantly assembled an elite force. With the support of fanatical revenge elements, he launched a coup in Black Rock City and formed a new warlord force called the War Council.

Currently, with the support of fanatical revanchists, the War Council has swallowed up the entire resistance army at a whirlwind and carried out a large-scale purge of all opponents.

A war machine with Roland as the absolute core and relying on the army to enforce autocratic rule is being rapidly built on this suffering land.

In the capital of Apocalypse, the War Council publicly declared that they would eliminate all the green-skinned orcs in Donnar at all costs and means, and any opponents would either leave or die.

No sacrifice is too great to accept, and no betrayal is too small to forgive.

At present, the United Army has not made any response to the formation of the War Committee, but according to rumors, the United Army's intervention forces are being mobilized to the border areas of both sides.

Military commentators commented: An unexpected spoiler.

In Ginza Castle, the old captain looked at the newspaper in front of him with a look of disgust.

Have these political groups in the Tower of Truth been kicked in the head by a donkey? What kind of things are they writing now? They don't write about important things, but just write about these trivial things.

He is just old and confused. Why would he want to learn about Roland's situation through the newspapers of these political societies?

These political societies know less about Donnar than even the old leader. At least, the old leader had sent people to Donnar, but these political societies probably have never been to Donnar, so how could they know any valuable information?

However, the newspapers of these political associations are not without value.

Putting aside their various outrageous remarks, their diverse and colorful political ideas in newspapers are still quite attractive.

As the most elite and intelligent group of people in Sinnar, the political ideas of the political associations they formed still have certain value.

After the Rose War, not only did they begin to think about the future of the Silver Empire, in fact, the top leaders of the Silver Empire also began to think about this issue.

After political societies started newspapers to publicize their political ideas, some nobles, kings, and spellcasters who wished to remain anonymous would often publish their ideas in the newspapers.

Moreover, since the spellcasters of the Tower of Truth look down on all other classes equally, to them, there is no difference between nobles, merchants, and slave owners.

As long as the caster finds the content of the submission interesting, it will be reported. In addition, some casters really value their political ideas, so they take people to inspect various places and publish what they see and feel in the newspapers.

Therefore, the newspapers published by these political societies became a platform for communication among all classes in the Silver Empire. Of course, if one wanted to speak out, one either had to be rich or powerful, or at least literate.

Therefore, these communication platforms are still just games for a few people.

However, this is already a great progress. At least it is no longer just a political game between nobles and some spellcasters.

As the leader of the Knights of Radiance and a high-ranking official in the Silver Empire, the old leader is naturally aware of the changes brewing in the Silver Empire. That is why he pays attention to the newspapers of these political societies every day.

Although the above concepts are still a bit immature, wasn't the current system of the Silver Empire also slowly explored and matured from immaturity? The old leader believes that the future belongs to them.

However, this did not prevent him from complaining about the newspapers they published, saying that they had no work to do and were using the War Committee's affairs to take up space.

Compared to them, the old captain knew more about Donnar's affairs.

The War Council is indeed a new force established after overthrowing the Locke Rebellion through a coup, but the following rumors are pure nonsense.

Although the War Council and the Allied Forces chose to avoid talking about each other, the situation between the two sides was still relatively harmonious.

The main reason was that Roland acted too quickly and too harshly. All the coalition forces stationed inside were killed in the civil war. In addition, the war committee also strengthened the defense of the passage, so even if the coalition forces wanted to interfere, they were helpless.

Moreover, the Silver Empire supports the United Army not to cause a civil war, but to have them fight against the Green Tide.

Therefore, after the War Council's external announcement spread, the Silver Empire used its influence within the United Army to restrict the actions of the United Army.

Therefore, although the relationship between the War Council and the United Army is not very good, they have not yet come to a direct fight.

Moreover, the two sides only have no contact at the official level. Other contacts have been gradually rebuilt and business exchanges have returned to normal.

The old captain looked at the information on the table and felt a little emotional.

Previously, the old captain sent someone to ask Roland if he wanted to spend the money he had deposited here. Roland agreed immediately and directly and unceremoniously gave the old captain a long list.

Roland had no interest in the weapons and equipment that the old captain mentioned. On the contrary, the list Roland gave was mostly basic materials that had undergone basic processing, relatively cheap extraordinary materials that could be mass-produced by various schools in the Tower of Truth, and a few expensive precision equipment.

In addition to the materials, Roland also asked the old captain to help buy as many slaves with some skills as possible.

After making a list, Roland also gave the old captain a message, telling him not to rush to deliver the items. As for when to deliver the items, the old captain would naturally understand when the time came.

And now, looking at the war committee formed by Roland, the old captain really understood.

No wonder these are the things they bought, it turns out they were prepared for the War Committee.

Yes, a big force cannot rely entirely on imports for weapons and equipment. It would be best if they could produce them independently.

Perhaps, when Roland entered Donnar, he had already decided to overthrow the Locke Rebellion?
The old captain turned his head and looked out the window, feeling a little emotional.

Is this the wisdom of the spellcaster?
