The tanks on Earth were often equipped with all kinds of advanced computer assistance. They were composed of weapon systems, fire control systems, power systems, communication systems, armored bodies, and other systems. They were also composed of at least four members: the commander, the gunner, the driver, and the loader. If automatic loading was achieved, the position of the loader would be saved.
In Prandal, although there was no computer, automatic loading was not a problem at all. Simple repetitive work could be achieved through the use of alchemy puppets. If the souls of magical beasts were used to refine the puppets, the degree of intelligence could be further improved.
Moreover, there was no need for radar here. The five senses of the Apocalypse were very sharp, and the skills of the Ranger allowed them to accurately lock onto the enemy and shoot. Ordinary soldiers could even be trained to shoot by sight.
Therefore, the lack of computer assistance was not a problem at all.
The biggest problem was the radio communication problem. It was very troublesome to contact each other in battle. Without a convenient radio walkie-talkie, the sealed tank would only fight alone and might even accidentally injure its allies.
Therefore, Tang En thought of Ellington's loudspeaker broadcast.
Previously, he wanted to further explore the function of the magically modified loudspeaker.
Now, it seemed even more necessary.
Alinx.
The Alinx branch of the Tang Daily was empty. No one knew when they left, but strangely, people could still receive the Tang Daily every morning.
It was distributed to their door for free.
Two shocking news spread throughout Alinx at an incredible speed, and it was quickly learned by the lurking spies and spread out.
In order to fight back against the invasion of Kasparmi Castle, Ellington announced the launch of a counterattack against Kasparmi Castle!
If the first piece of news was still within the acceptable range, then the second piece of news was simply absurd!
The Lord of Ellington, Tang En, denied the rule of His Majesty Girard and declared the independence of Ellington!
At a noble's banquet, a group of people whispered about this shocking news.
"Ellington declared independence!? What a joke! "
"What!? Ellington became independent!? Will the price of the Datang Chamber of Commerce's products increase? "
"Datang Chamber of Commerce? What are you thinking? The Datang Chamber of Commerce is empty! "
"It's true?! Could it be that Lord Tang En was really the illegitimate son of the late king? Otherwise, they wouldn't have reacted so strongly to His Majesty Girard's coronation! "
"Even if he is the illegitimate son of the late king, how dare he declare Ellington's independence?! If it wasn't for the Datang Chamber of Commerce, I wouldn't have even heard of Ellington! "
"That's right. Given Ellington's strength, if His Majesty Girard were to attack the border in a fit of anger, wouldn't he be wiped out in an instant?"
"But the biggest problem is that he really did it! What kind of confidence did he have … God! It was Charles Cartier! He's coming! "
"Shh …"
"What are you guys talking about? May I join in?"
Ever since Girard's coronation, the past few days had been glorious. Charles, who had been full of smiles, swirled his wine glass.
"Of course! Sir Charles, it's our honor. We're discussing which of the dancers who performed in the Grand Theater yesterday was prettier. The members of the opera troupe who performed for His Majesty Girard's coronation yesterday were really good. "
"Haha, as long as Count Yoven takes out gold coins, those performers will obediently offer themselves to him."
"That's true. Did you guys notice that the lead dancer yesterday had a great figure …"
Listening to these nobles discussing which girl had a better figure and appearance, Charles was in an exceptionally good mood. That's right, he had already enjoyed the beauties of the opera troupe last night.
In terms of wealth, in the entire Irus Empire, apart from the Spade family, which other family could compare with the Cartier family?
Now, His Majesty Girard was on the same side as them. They no longer had to worry about how to deal with that damned Victor.
The only fly in the ointment was that Charles took a sip of wine and sighed inwardly. He did not put the crown on his head.
Not far away, Morton tried his best to imitate his elder brother's manner, but no matter how he tried, he could not do it as naturally and freely as he did. Finally, he gave up in disappointment, and ran to a corner to eat and drink to his heart's content.
Not far away, Aubrey and Aradeline, who were whispering to each other while observing the nobles in the corner, noticed Morton's decadent expression. They looked at each other and nodded slightly. While Charles was not paying attention, they quietly took Morton out of the banquet hall.
"That's enough. It's very quiet here, and no one will come here. The eavesdropping spell has been isolated."
Aradeline tore a magic scroll and closed the door.
Morton, who was holding a pastry in one hand and a glass of wine in the other, did not realize what had happened until Aubrey let go of his mouth.
"Damn it! Who are you!? I'm Morton of the Cartier family! You — "
Morton suddenly sucked in a breath of cold air. No matter how stupid he was, he still recognized Aubrey and Aradeline. These two were the two sharp swords of the Irus Empire.
"You want to kill me!?"
Morton's expression suddenly changed. The Cartier family, the Feier family, and the Bolette family had been holding grudges for a long time. Now that Victor was dead and the empire's situation was unstable, it was normal for them to take advantage of this time to make a move on him.
"Is this idiot really the second son of that old fox Frank?"
Aubrey looked at Morton suspiciously. Could this guy be the child of Frank's wife and someone else?
Morton's face turned red, and he said emotionally, "You can kill me! But you can't insult me! The blood of the Cartier family flows in my veins! "
"It's not Frank's character to be so easily agitated."
Aradeline shook his head. "But there's no magic in the blood at all. That's exactly the same."
Having been hit where it hurt, Morton became even more agitated. "Damn it! As elders, is this how you humiliate your juniors?! "
"We don't need to deliberately provoke you to deal with you," Aubrey said disdainfully.
Aubry said with disdain, "Tell me, what role did the Cadier family play in this conspiracy?"
Morton was stunned and said subconsciously, "Conspiracy? What conspiracy? "
Aradeline was stunned. The confusion on Morton's face was not fake. "What should we do? He doesn't seem to know."
Aubrey said darkly, "Then kill him. I've been annoyed with that old fox Frank for a long time anyway."
"No!"
Morton actually hid behind Aradeline in fear. "Duke Aradeline! You're the Grand Duke of Condemnation! Do you want to see him kill an innocent person without any evidence?! I didn't do anything bad — those girls slept with me willingly! "
"This guy!"
Aubrey was furious. "His brain works pretty fast at times like this!"
"He's right. You can't transfer your anger at Frank to him. He's innocent — compared to Charles."
Aradeline looked at Morton and said in a low voice, "If you want me to protect you, then tell me everything you know. Otherwise, I can't protect you. First, tell me where your father went. Why hasn't he shown up recently? "
Aubrey glanced at Morton from the corner of his eyes as he picked his nails with the table knife in his hand. The threat in his eyes was very obvious.
Morton swallowed. He did not doubt that Aubrey could easily tear his throat with the table knife. The fear of death, his dissatisfaction with his father Frank, and his jealousy of his brother Charles — all these factors combined made him choose to surrender directly.
"I'll talk! I'll talk! "
Morton did not have the guts to not surrender. In his eyes, preserving his own life was the most important thing. He spilled everything he knew like a bamboo tube filled with beans.
"My father disappeared a few months ago. He said that he wanted to completely control the power in his body. The next time he appeared, it would be the moment when the Cardier family reached the peak of glory. I don't know where he went either. In short, after he left, everything in the family was handed over to my brother."
"Power?"
Aubrey and Aradeline looked at each other and immediately asked, "What power? Isn't the Cardier family unable to awaken talents due to bloodline? "
"I don't know either. It was a man in black who suddenly appeared, and he bestowed great power to my father!"
Morton's eyes shone as he said enviously, "That power was very powerful. My father immediately gained the strength of a super master, but the aftereffects of using that power were also very severe. He had to constantly … constantly …"
"Constantly what?"
"Constantly eating people."
"Eating people!?"
"That's right. Or rather, devouring flesh and blood and life force … After using that power, my father would become very old, but after eating those female servants, he would immediately regain his youth and become young and powerful."
Facing Aubrey's cold gaze, Morton shrunk his neck and closed his eyes as he said, "I only know that my father and brother called that man in black 'Emissary' or 'Venerable One' … As for his name, I don't know. I wouldn't know even if they killed me!"
The two looked at each other, and Aradeline continued to ask, "After they obtained the power, did their emotions change greatly, or did their behavior change from before?"
Morton shook his head and replied honestly, "That's not the case. Rather, after gaining power, they became more confident and ambitious."
"No change … They seem to be different from Girard."
Aubrey frowned. "You're not lying?"
"Of course I'm not! If you don't believe me, look outside at my brother! "
Morton panicked. "He also received the blessing. Do you see any difference from before?"
No, there was no difference at all!
