Chapter 1556: Chapter 52, Black Hand_3
The military and the government have both verified this, but it’s not merely a verification; it represents a compromise achieved among the various forces of the Kingdom on the list of enfeoffment.
Theoretically, the King has the power to overturn everything and start anew, but in reality, Caesar IV can only make minor adjustments.
He could remove a few that he disliked or add some barely qualified confidants without issue, but any more than that would cause trouble.
In fact, Caesar IV has done an excellent job with the enfeoffment of the nobles. Other than occasionally adjusting the location of fiefs, he hardly interferes.
Inserting confidants is even more out of the question!
The front is not the rear; without some ability to fight, one would only contribute to the enemy’s achievements.
Even if he were to favor his confidants, it would be on the merit of their battlefield achievements, proving their abilities, before Caesar IV would dare to use them heavily.
“Your Majesty, aside from the enfeoffment of the Noble Lords, the current international situation is also gradually changing.
The number of Earth Core Entrances is increasing, as if someone is intentionally unsealing them, releasing these ugly creatures.
It is said that traces of an Elven Powerhouse have been detected near the Earth Core Entrances, suspected to be the work of the Elf Race.
The Alliance is closely monitoring this, but unfortunately, the number of Sanctuary Powerhouses within the clan is too few, and our territory is too vast.
Even if there is an Elf Sanctuary going deep, it would be difficult to encounter them, let alone capture them!”
Marquis Omar’s complaint made Caesar IV furrow his brow.
Many suspected possibilities might reveal the truth of the matter.
In terms of understanding the Earth’s Core Seal, no force on the continent can compare with the elves, as most seals were completed by their ancestors.
From the Ancient Era to now, the lineage of the Elf Race has remained unchanged, having these sealing records in their possession is not surprising.
When outsiders break the seal, the commotion is earth-shattering, but it’s different when the masters of these seals are involved.
Recently, the Earth Core race invasions have all erupted within the territory of the Human Race, increasing the suspicion of the Elf Race.
The Human Alliance is only observing instead of forming a task force, likely having concluded that the elves are the masterminds.
Since they are already adversaries, striking covertly is expected and doesn’t warrant much discussion.
“If the masterminds are the Elf Race, then the Earth Core Species and Alien Coalition jointly opposing Our Human Race is not without reason.
Forget it, there’s no need to delve deeply into such matters. Without evidence, those elves would never admit to anything.
The current situation is not suitable for starting a war with the elves, so let’s not complicate matters.
Jot down the account for them for now. When our race unifies the continent, we’ll gradually settle these accounts with them!”
Caesar IV said with a hint of helplessness.
Among the many Human Kingdoms, the Five Nations Alliance is the least willing to initiate a continental war at present.
Once war erupts, the development momentum of the Alpha Kingdom will inevitably be affected, and the other four countries, due to their poor geographical locations, will become primary targets for alien attacks.
Even if the Human Race can achieve final victory, the Five Nations Alliance, positioned at the frontline, would suffer substantial losses and become the major loser.
To prevent the situation from spiraling out of control, they can only feign ignorance for now. Even if war is imminent, it must be postponed until the troubles with the Earth Core Species are addressed.
The current issue is that while the Five Nations Alliance wishes to delay, the Alien Coalition may not agree.
Teaming up with the Earth Core Species, driving the Human Race from the position of continental hegemon and redistributing the spoils is too tempting to resist.
