Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1486: Signs Of Civil War

On the night of the invasion of Nelm, the floating island of Babylon collapsed. The families had already withdrawn most of their manpower and resources in advance because of the conflict with the federation under the control of the fake President Alain at that time. Instead, they had retained their vitality. In the subsequent ground wars, although the various clans had contributed, the main force in the ground wars was still the Federation Army. Most of the clan's private troops played a supplementary role and their losses were limited. After the war, the Federal Government suffered the greatest losses. As for the nobles, they also suffered some losses, but compared to the Federation, they suffered much less. This was especially true for the Smith Clan, which had a deep foundation. The invasion war did not hurt their bones, and they still retained their enormous potential.

Of course, in terms of benefits. The only one who benefited from the war waged by the people of Nelm was Beskard. Earlier, Old Horn had created his own Star Destroyer, causing it to land on the ground, buying valuable buffer time for a series of federal operations. Afterwards, Alan attacked Mo Suo, forcing the people of Nelm who were fighting on Earth to choose to retreat, resolving the Earth's crisis in one fell swoop.

It could be said that in this so-called second war of dawn, Beskard, the old and the young, were in the limelight. Especially after the news of Allen joining the battle spread out, the family's reputation had been greatly shaken by Horn, but now they were on another floor. As a result, Beskard has attracted a large number of talents in just a few months, bringing Beskard decades, or even hundreds of years of talent potential. Similarly, if nothing unexpected happened, the clan would continue to prosper and grow stronger in the next hundred years.

By contrast, the Alexandrian family's situation was not so optimistic. Before the night of the invasion, Horn's layers of decorations were so heavy that he couldn't lift his head. After the night of the invasion, the people of Nelm attacked many factories and cities on the surface, including several family businesses belonging to Alexander. Although the Alexandrian family was not bankrupt, they had no choice but to adhere to the name of the Smith family. Compared to ten years ago, they were far inferior.

At this moment, Maine, who was sitting beside Wigg, no longer had the demeanor of a noble like before. He lowered his head slightly. It was clear that Wigg was the main reason for all the decisions made here.

Capulo wasn't in a hurry to answer Wigg's previous words. Instead, he looked at the two of them. His gaze lingered on Maine for an exceptionally long time, and his gaze carried a hint of amusement.

"When did the Alexandrias and the Smith family become partners? The world is changing so fast that I'm at a loss for what to do." Capello laughed dryly and said, "Mr. Main, you're actually a genius. It's a pity that you're in such a hurry. If you hadn't underestimated Horn and Beskard, you wouldn't have fallen into this kind of situation. Well, you're an ally of the Smith family. It's ugly, that's, hey."

He didn't continue, but Main wasn't stupid, so how could he not know what Capulet meant? His face immediately turned red, but his head was buried even lower, lest Capulo should see the anger in his eyes. Capullo knew exactly how Maine would react, but he didn't care. Instead, he looked at Wigg. Seeing that Wigg was smiling and indifferent, he knew that the Smiths did not value Maine as an ally. Otherwise, it would be time to stand up for Maine's honor. With a simple sentence, he could gauge the two families' general alliance attitudes. This information was enough for Capulo.

Only then did the old lion cough dryly and said, "Our close ally has left, and he should not be coming again in the near future." According to Mobbit's temperament, the foreign enemies had already been cleared, so the next step was naturally to clear the interior. Although I took the opportunity to pull the golden lion out of the federal military system with the fake president, and had already operated it for many years before doing so, ensuring a smooth transition for the golden lion, my decades of endurance were not in vain. "

Capullo grinned at Maine and said, "Mr. Maine should learn from me. If you want to achieve great things, you have to learn to bear with it. Isn't there a saying in the East that if you can't bear it, you have to conspire?" If it was me, I wouldn't have touched this little fellow Allen back then. If I wanted to deal with him, I would have to deal with a big shot like Old Horn. Unfortunately, though Mr. Main is clever, he has obviously used his cleverness to the wrong extent, which is why he has provoked such a stench. "

The corners of Maine's mouth twitched and he forced a smile, but it was just a superficial smile. It looked extremely ugly.

Capullo took a puff of his cigar and continued, "What do you say, even though I've been preparing for this for decades." However, it was still a bad name. Previously, due to the common enemy of Nelm, the Golden Lion still maintained its establishment. Now that the war was over, many officers and soldiers in the divisions had resigned. I can understand their mood, but also very happy, because they still remember that they are a soldier, they still maintain the honor of a soldier. I didn't stop those who wanted to leave. They had the right to do what they wanted to do. Even if they join the Union army again, they will become enemies with me one day. But at least today, I'm proud of them. "

"In other words, I'm afraid that the Golden Lion will only have half of its strength in the future? Or even less?" Wigg asked with a smile.

"That's possible." Capulo nodded and said, "But it doesn't matter. As long as I'm alive, the golden lion will always be a lion." And now that the war is over, you should know how many cities have been destroyed and how many people are homeless, needless to say. Therefore, if the soldiers were gone, they could still be recruited. It won't be long before the Golden Lion regains its original structure, and its scale will be even greater than before. "

"It seems that Sir is very confident in the future of the Golden Lion." Wigg nodded and said, "Then I'm relieved. I'm not afraid to tell the truth when I visit today." What happened in the Federation before had already frozen our affairs. Although it was because of a fake president, it could be seen how big the loophole in the Federation was. Otherwise, how could the fake president named Alan have exploited this loophole? Right now, both my brother and I have lost faith in Mobius. There are quite a few people who think the same as us, and several families have already revealed the same thoughts. We want our families to take root in the right soil, and Mobius obviously can't give us that soil. "

"If Lord Capulo is willing to set up a new government, then our families will be happy to support a new government with an army like you and a Golden Lion." Wigg glanced at Maine and said in a relaxed tone, "After the first dawn war, the planet was governed by a single regime. Now that it has been proven that such a model for a single ruling body is no longer suitable for the current situation, perhaps the Federation must admit that people want to have other ruling bodies to choose from, not just the words of the Federation."

Maine nodded in agreement.

Capulo smiled dryly and said, "Brother Wigg, you don't have to probe me anymore." Did I let the golden lion leave the federation just for fun? Of course, my goal was to become the president myself. Marshal: I've been doing this for decades, and I think it's time to get a promotion. However, Mobie will not be willing to accept our thoughts. I can guarantee that. Before kicking out the people of Nelm, this President had already planned to expel the invaders. How could he settle things with people like you and me? "

"Naturally," said Wigg calmly, "I would have thought the same thing if I were Mobius. I just know that Mobius is only one person, and he can't decide what others think, can he?"

"That's right. That's why he will ask for negotiations. The negotiations will naturally be fruitless. In that case, the only thing left is war." Capullo leaned forward and said, "War is my old profession. You don't know how hard it was to endure the decades I avoided the New Party without thinking about war." So if Mobbit wants to fight, I'll fight with him. The question is, brother Wigg, are you ready? If you're going to support me, I don't want to be just blabbering. And if you invest, you will become Mobbit's enemies. I want to know, are you ready? "

"We are also businessmen, how can we not know that there are risks in investing?" Wigg said with a smile on his face. But instead of investing in Mobius and not reaping any benefits in the end, it would be better to gamble with Lord Capulo. So before the visit, Big Brother had already said that as long as Lord Capullo was willing to form a new government, the Smith family and Alexander's army could be handed over to Lord Capullo to replenish the emptiness of the Golden Lion's attrition.

"Alright!" "Three days from now, I will officially announce that the 17th and 18th districts on the surface will become my districts. Tomorrow, I will meet with the leaders of Light Concealment Society and Freedom Gate. If nothing unexpected happens, the three of us will reach an agreement and form an alliance."

"If I were Mobbit, I wouldn't be able to sleep from tonight onwards." Wigg laughed.

The news that Wigg Maine and Capulet had met that day had appeared in the evening in the form of intel in front of Mobius' case. Mobius sighed as he looked at this piece of information, causing Windsor Belo to look over as well. When Marshal Greed saw the murderous look on his face, Mobit said in a low voice, "The thing I was worried about has finally happened. Capullo is really unwilling to be lonely." The Smiths and Alexandrias were the golden lions who intended to support him, and after these two families, there should be other families joining them. Now Capulo wants soldiers, money, and money. If it were me, I would also be the king. "

"I wanted to use some buffer measures after expelling the Nelm, but now that Capullo is declaring independence, we can't just ignore it. At that time, the Civil War will be inevitable." Mobie said solemnly.
