Steel, Explosives, and Spellcasters

Chapter 1041: Chapter 70 Thunder

In the early morning, the messenger galloped into the city.

By noon, the bad news had already spread throughout Steel Castle.

The anticipated scene where “Solingen State makes a call and all other autonomous states swiftly gather to respond” did not happen. Instead, the representatives from Solingen State were shocked to find themselves in the minority.

Steel Castle’s hasty counterattack with the force of one state against the well-prepared Upper Chamber was an arm-wrestling match that ended in a scene too ghastly to witness. Not only did they fail to overturn the embargo law, but the pro-Federated Provinces representatives took advantage of the situation to push the embargo law through the Lower Chamber with three calls, solidifying it into formal legislation.

In the Monta Republic’s political system, the role of the Upper Chamber is to restrain the local Montan factions. Although the Upper Chamber only has an incomplete legislative function, it also possesses absolute veto power.

From the moment the embargo law became official legislation, unless the Monta Republic’s constitution was rewritten or the Upper Chamber cleansed with blood, there would be no chance to repeal it.

At noon, Ironhand Gaisberg was the first to send someone for a secret visit to the household of Baron and Lady Granashi.
