Three days later, the Sack Kingdom officially announced that the Sack Kingdom's magic machine research facility had solved all the technical problems of the Magic Cannon and had successfully developed the Magic Cannon.
This news spread to several surrounding countries at an unimaginable speed, and then to several countries even further away on the continent at the same speed.
When this news came out, the entire continent fell into an uproar.
Since the results of the two battles between the Kingdom of Ruhr and the Kandla Empire came out, almost all the countries on the continent recognized the power and importance of the military magic machines. The two empires didn't hesitate to join the ranks of those seeking military magic machines.
However, the military magic machines were only controlled by New Flyer, no one else could make them. So even the Kandla Empire and the Malor Empire had to lower their noble heads and take the initiative to cooperate with New Flyer.
As for the other small countries, they were like ducks to flock to the military magic machines, but they had to look at New Flyer's face before they could obtain the military magic machines.
At this time, there was another country that announced that they could also make military magic machines and that it was the high end Magic Cannon. This was no different from a stimulant to all the countries and powers on the continent that wanted to obtain the military magic machines.
Even if the Sack Kingdom had only released this news and said that they had successfully developed the Magic Cannon, for most of the countries and powers, they cared more about the meaning behind this news.
Because this meant that the military magic machines would no longer be exclusive to New Flyer!
The Sack Kingdom also released news that they would be holding a military magic machine exhibition on a certain date. Other than showing off the newly developed military cannon, they would also be showing off the other low end military magic machines that they had developed.
Because of this exhibition, the Sack Kingdom instantly became the center of attention of the continent. The newspapers of the various countries in the southwest corner of the continent all reported on this matter. Even when people were talking in private, they were all focused on this topic.
Under the influence of this atmosphere, the New Flyer that everyone paid attention to was suddenly thrown to the back of their minds, as if they had been forgotten by everyone.
Of course, there were some people who couldn't forget the New Flyer no matter what.
Sir Alex Ferguson was one of them.
This was Sir Alex Ferguson's third visit to the New Flight Commerce Main Base in the Principality of Constantine.
Compared to the last two times he came here, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's main base had clearly changed greatly. There were countless new tall buildings that had appeared on the barren land last time and there were countless people moving back and forth between these tall buildings, looking very busy.
The New Flight Commerce Main Base was still as busy and prosperous as before, like it wasn't affected by the Sack Kingdom's announcement at all. Everything continued in an orderly manner.
After Sir Alex Ferguson jumped out of the horse carriage, he reached out to rub his aching waist. Then he looked at the Magic Sedan beside him and a look of envy appeared in his eyes.
It would be great if he could have a Magic Sedan. That way the three thousand kilometer journey from the Magician's Union headquarters wouldn't be so hard to endure and it would be several times faster.
It was a pity that the headquarters were still very dissatisfied with the New Flyer, so he didn't dare take the initiative to buy a Magic Sedan to show off in the headquarters and attract criticism.
Then again, he was representing the headquarters to denounce the New Flyer, so if he came in a Magic Sedan produced by the New Flyer, he wouldn't have enough confidence.
"Why can't any other company produce a Magic Sedan?" Thinking of this, Sir Alex Ferguson couldn't help complaining in his heart.
"The Sack Kingdom can even produce Magic Cannons, so a Magic Sedan should be simpler than a Magic Cannon. These companies really are useless … …"
After muttering this in his heart, Sir Alex Ferguson saw that at the entrance of the New Flyer headquarters, Xu Yi was leading several people wearing the uniform of the Magic Research Institute of New Flying Chamber of Commerce out.
Looking at the magician rank badges on their chests, Sir Alex Ferguson couldn't help narrowing his eyes.
These researchers from the Magic Research Institute of New Flying Chamber of Commerce were at least Eighth Grade Magicians and there were three Ninth Grade Magicians.
Adding in Xu Yi who was a Great Magician, these people who came over didn't seem like much, but they were a magician power that couldn't be ignored.
Then thinking about the fact that the Magic Research Institute of New Flying Chamber of Commerce had over seven hundred magicians, with most of them being High Grade Magicians, as well as the three thousand Low Grade Magicians working in the New Flyer factories, the magician power of the New Fei Chamber of Commerce was even more terrifying.
Moreover, other than the chairman Xu Yi who was a Great Magician, there was also a Great Magician from the Lampari Kingdom working for the New Flyer. Adding in the rumours that there was an unknown Great Magician secretly working for the New Flyer, it was equal to the New Flyer having three Great Magicians.
If one added in Teacher Carmilla who was the ultimate magician, the magician power that the New Flyer had could be considered terrifying.
"Sir Alex Ferguson, welcome to the New Flyer again."
Just as he was thinking about this, Xu Yi had already led his people to welcome Sir Alex Ferguson, smiling as he extended his hand.
"Hello, Chairman Xu, it's a pleasure to see you again."
Sir Alex Ferguson hurriedly stopped thinking and extended his hand to shake Xu Yi's hand. Then, he looked at the magicians beside Xu Yi with a puzzled gaze.
"These are …"
"Oh, they are researchers from the Academy of Magic of our Chamber of Commerce. They heard that Sir Alex Ferguson was representing the Magician's Union Headquarters to discuss some issues regarding the rights of magicians. They were very interested, so they wanted to listen in." Xu Yi smiled as he explained.
"Listen in?" Sir Alex Ferguson frowned.
This time, he was representing the Union Headquarters to discuss with Xu Yi. Xu Yi had been notified in advance, so there was no way he didn't know.
This wasn't something that was suitable to be discussed in public. But now, Xu Yi was acting like this. What was the meaning of this?
Xu Yi acted as if he didn't see the expression on Sir Alex Ferguson's face. He smiled as he extended his hand and made an inviting gesture.
Sir Alex Ferguson could only compose himself and follow Xu Yi into the New Flyer Headquarters building.
Xu Yi had already prepared a conference room in the building and directly led Sir Alex Ferguson in.
After the group of people took their seats, Xu Yi said a few words of welcome to Sir Alex Ferguson and went straight to the point.
"Sir Alex Ferguson, regarding the Union Headquarters' request for our Chamber of Commerce to stop forming the Magic Machine Patent Protection Union, our Chamber of Commerce has decided to reject this request after discussion. We hope that you can pass on our decision to the Union Headquarters."
"Ah?" Sir Alex Ferguson was a little dumbfounded.
This time, he was indeed representing the Magician's Union Headquarters to formally warn New Flyer and ask them to stop forming the Magic Machine Patent Protection Union. Otherwise, New Flyer would be punished by the Sorcerers Guild.
But he never thought that before he could say anything, Xu Yi would actually reject it in advance!
What gave him the guts to reject it?
After the shock, a trace of anger welled up in Sir Alex Ferguson's chest.
"Chairman Xu, do you know the consequences of doing this?" Sir Alex Ferguson asked with a sullen face.
Xu Yi smiled slightly, "I don't know."
"You …" Sir Alex Ferguson was instantly enraged, but after seeing the smile on Xu Yi's face, he forced himself to calm down.
"Chairman Xu, I'm here this time to represent the Union Headquarters to officially pass on the decision of the Union Headquarters to New Flyer.
You New Flyer must stop forming the Magic Machine Patent Protection Union, or you will be punished by the Union Headquarters!
This is the decision of the Elders of the Union Headquarters. Chairman Xu, your Chamber of Commerce must comply! "
Xu Yi smiled without saying a word. Not only did he not respond, but he leaned back against the chair and looked at Sir Alex Ferguson with a calm and unruffled expression.
"Sir Sir Alex Ferguson, I have a question." A middle-aged researcher who looked to be about forty years old beside Xu Yi suddenly spoke up.
Sir Alex Ferguson frowned and looked at him, thinking that Xu Yi had indeed come prepared by bringing these people here.
After glancing at the grade-9 mage badge on the middle-aged man's chest, Sir Alex Ferguson nodded, "Speak, what's the question?"
The middle-aged man stood up and bowed to Sir Alex Ferguson to show his respect, then asked, "Sir, I don't understand the decision of the Union Headquarters.
Why does the Union Headquarters want our Chamber of Commerce to stop forming the Magic Machine Patent Protection Union?
What's the reason? "
"Reason?"
Sir Alex Ferguson glanced at Xu Yi, who still had a smile on his face, and snorted coldly, replying, "The protection and use of magic-related patents is a power that only the Magician's Union Headquarters can exercise. Apart from the Union Headquarters, no other person or organization has the right to exercise this power.
Now that New Flyer wants to form the Magic Machine Patent Protection Union, it's tantamount to violating the authority of the Union Headquarters.
The Elder's Union Headquarters took into account that this is your first offense, and that what New Flyer is doing is beneficial to the development of the continent's mages, so they decided to give you a way out and not pursue this matter.
But if you still insist on doing this, then don't blame the Union Headquarters for being impolite! "
"Sir, although what you said seems very reasonable, but …" A trace of mockery flashed across the middle-aged man's face.
"If I remember correctly, the words' patent 'and' magic patent 'were originally proposed by New Flyer to the Union Headquarters, right?"
