Chapter 435 - 407 We Also Split Up
Arthur Laine was indeed a formidable weapon, and when deployed, it would cause terrifying damage, but it could only be used as a critical card, not thrown out at the beginning of the game to end it. On the contrary, playing it too early would only give the Laine people time to prepare.
Even a nuclear bomb, no matter how powerful, isn’t enough to destroy a country, not even a small one.
A great nation with a population of hundreds of millions, and with plenty of mid to high-level talents, as long as the core of Laine hadn’t been completely abandoned, the Empire would have a very powerful ability to repair itself. Now, the mainland nations were all tacitly uniting against Laine, but their goal was just to reclaim lost lands, not to join forces and obliterate Laine.
Anyone with a bit of sense would know that Laine was far from destruction at the moment.
Withered Rose was very unwilling to accept this, but she had to admit that what Amberser said was right.
If it was only a matter of changing an Emperor for the Laine Empire, there would be no point at all. Withered Rose hated the name Laine; she wanted everything that the name stood for to vanish into thin air, not for Arthur Laine to become the Holy King of mankind once again.
Withered Rose clenched her fists, saying excitedly, "Is there really no way, how much longer must we wait for this Empire to be destroyed?"
With the obsession of a Lich touched, Withered Rose was already completely unable to remain calm, she couldn’t even think coherently at the moment. Withered Rose could only look at Amberser, as if he was her only hope.
Amberser reassured her, "Don’t be nervous, I have long had a plan. A city destroyed by external forces will be rebuilt by its people, but a tower that collapses from within is only going to be spurned by the survivors. Only if Laine splinters from within does it stand a chance of destruction; otherwise, the more pressure it faces now, the more it urges the Laine people to set aside their differences and unite."
Damage from outside will leave fond memories in the hearts of those involved, but if they self-destruct through their own folly, the survivors will only want to quickly forget the past, and to forget is the true destruction.
