The expressions of the representatives of the various countries in the venue were uncertain. Harris clearly did not mind exposing their ambitions.
"This is mainly to ensure that after Allen enters the underworld, some countries will not do anything to harm the alliance … At this moment of life and death, the situation of being hostile to the Magic Empire like before must never happen again," Owen raised his index finger and said loudly, "When the wizard emperor of the Magic Empire enters the underworld to fight for the living, as his father, I have to make sure that he will not be disturbed by the living. So, when the time comes, there must be no conflict between countries … Otherwise, the Magic Empire will lead the other member states to sanction the countries that are still selfish in this special time …" He put down his hand and begged solemnly, "So I sincerely hope that all of you can join the alliance with the primary goal of fighting against the God of Death. Let's work together to fight against the God of Death and return peace to the world."
The representatives in the audience looked at Owen. They knew that the Magic Empire thought that it was not enough for them to only be the president of the International Union of Wizards and Wizards. Instead, they wanted to take this opportunity to maintain their status in the international community. As long as Allen Harris really saved the world, the prestige and the subtle advantage brought by the influence would allow them to maintain their status as the world's policeman and mediator.
He would sign a treaty with the various countries and become the leader of this new, world-wide, and more powerful allied empire outside of the International Sorcerer Union.
"France will join the Empire Alliance and become a member state!"
"The Netherlands will join as well!"
"Luxembourg will join as well!"
Other than the Magic Empire's staunch ally France, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, and other small European magic governments that were close to the United Kingdom and Germany were the first to agree. These small magic countries had a small population of wizards and were not strong enough. They did not have much say in the international community. After witnessing the power of the underworld, they knew that their resistance was too weak in the face of such a large number of undead creatures. Now, in order to survive, they had to rely on the Magic Empire.
"Minister Harris, the president of the International Wizard Federation is Principal Harris. It's enough for him to lead all of us …" The new representative selected from India due to the death of the old representative in the Duel Competition explosion, a middle-aged wizard who was quite handsome named Aamir Bajan, stood up. When he saw Owen looking at him, he said hesitantly with a guilty conscience, "Minister Owen, I mean … Isn't it too troublesome to build another set of stoves? No one dares to disobey you at this time … "
"Mr. Baqiang, this short period of time is to allow the Magic Empire, as the leader and the actual executor of this operation, to fight against the Grim Reaper more efficiently … Of course, we adhere to the principle of voluntariness. Countries are free to choose whether to join the Empire Alliance or not. No matter how many countries there are in the end, Allen will still go to the underworld to fight against the Grim Reaper …" Owen was not angry at all. He nodded at Aamir Baqiang and said, "But I have to be honest. If something like the underworld happens in a non-allied country, it is very likely that this country will have to solve the problem on its own … After all, energy and resources are limited. The Empire Alliance must prioritize the safety of its members and help other countries to fight against the Grim Reaper …"
"I just have a little doubt, Mr. Owen. Please don't mind. India is very willing to sign an alliance treaty. We agree with this idea very much …" Aamir Baqiang quickly shook his head and agreed, although he sounded a little embarrassed.
"Now the news that Goddess Ravenclaw can protect the Floating City from the Grim Reaper's attack is widely known. What I want to tell everyone is that this is true, not a rumor." Owen puffed out his chest and said loudly to the other representatives who did not have anything to say, "I also want to emphasize and warn everyone that although the population that the Floating City can accommodate is not fully saturated yet, and it can still use the Traceless Expansion Spell and the more time-consuming real filling to expand the city, these are all conditional and will take a lot of time to complete. I'm afraid it can't keep up with the growth of the Floating City's population. In other words …" He looked guilty. "In other words, if the battle can't be resolved in a short time and the situation on the ground deteriorates, then the Floating City's position will be in a situation where the supply of the Wizards from the new alliance can not meet the demand …" Owen paused and his eyes swept across the venue that was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. "So we can only make such a decision. The Floating City will give priority to the temporary shelter plan of accepting the wizards from the new alliance member states … The specific amount of distribution will also need to be negotiated with us based on the resources that the member states can provide …" As soon as the noise rose from the audience, Owen spread out his hands and said in distress, "I'm sorry, representatives, this is not the Empire's intention to take advantage of the situation, but it's really because of the urgency of the situation. According to our estimation, the number of refugees that the Floating City can accept in the most ideal state … can't be self-sufficient for a long time … The expansion of the city can't keep up, so we need everyone's support. Please rest assured … The Empire has no intention of taking advantage of the members' resources. When the time comes, the member states can send their own representatives to supervise. I guarantee that the resources of each country, except for some rare resources that Lady Ravenclaw and my son Allen personally requested to go to the Underworld, the Empire will provide gold coins or other common materials as compensation. Most of the resources will be used on the people of your own countries. If the war falls into a tug of war, the Empire will also try to help everyone get through the difficulties while working hard to expand …"
The questions that were about to be raised in the conference hall turned into whispers.
Member of Parliament Bokov took out his Volga and sipped on it. The Indian sorcerer Ba Qiang pulled the Totti that was wrapped around his waist and frowned as he pondered … These big countries knew that this was Harris' scheme, but there was nothing they could do.
Since the beginning of the conference of the International Wizard Union, the wizards of various magic countries had already known about the general situation of the end of the world. Now that the floating city was protected by Ravenclaw, it was confirmed that the floating city was safe for the time being. It was obvious that Harris would soon let everyone in the magic world know about it.
Most of the leaders and nobles of these countries were secretly in contact with the former Magic Kingdom and the current Magic Empire. They began to move their families in advance in an attempt to secure a position on the floating city.
As leaders, most of them had to set an example. Previously, they had shown their noble attitude in front of the media. After all, things had not developed to the point of endangering themselves. Therefore, most of the members did not choose to come to the floating city directly. Instead, they went on a business trip with the Union.
But now, the Magic Empire's decision was tantamount to putting these problems on the table. Not only did it eliminate the possibility that some countries did not want to join the Empire Alliance, but it also ruined their plan of doing nothing. Moreover, the Magic Empire also threw the problem of choosing the candidates to themselves.
The quota was there. Who could migrate was not only decided by the floating city and the Magic Empire, but also the result of the will and efforts of each country.
The resentment and abuse of the wizards who could not migrate to the floating city because of the quota would not only be borne by the Magic Empire, but also by their own governments.
Most importantly, the Ministry of Magic in each country had begun to riot because of the news that the end of the world was coming. They knew that they had no choice.
