"Looks like I need to build a bigger dock in the [Sorcerer's Garden]."
Looking at the four armed merchant ships lined up on the shore, the "flesh puppets" in iron armor were moving a large amount of wealth onto the shore like ants moving house.
The fourth-level battleship that was thrown here when he obtained information about the ghouls before the war, the legendary warship [Miracle Crown], and the legendary warship that was slowly repairing itself, [Sea Spirit].
Elvin, who stood at the top of Posedia City, touched the [Hermit Shell] in his arms and sighed helplessly.
"Sigh, this is probably … the trouble of the rich."
Looking at the second floor of the city, he saw the men and women lined up in four groups under Plum's lead. Rubbing his eyebrows, he fell into deep thought. He still needed to think about how to deal with this group of families.
They were very important to begin with, and they were involved in a huge amount of wealth that even the king would be jealous of. He could not just throw them away like that. Whether they were left to fend for themselves or fell into the hands of the kingdom, there was a risk.
Besides, Elvin was not a demon. He did not like to kill people without a reason.
After glancing at the group of men and women who had been controlled by the spell and appeared to be in a daze, Elvin's eyes flashed as he came up with an idea.
They were the close family members of the 22 core members of the Constitutional Assembly. There were a total of 116 people, and most of them were women, accounting for two-thirds of the total number.
Most of the people in this group were the standard elites of this era. Even the foppish guy among them was at least proficient in grammar, mathematics, and some swordsmanship.
Among them, there was also an outstanding talent who was not inferior to his top management talent, Hawkins. In terms of achievements, Hawkins was even better.
It would be a waste to just lock them up and make them work until they died in the mines.
Therefore, considering the serious shortage of talents in the territory.
Elvin decided to personally change their appearance from the genetic level, and then let Olivia implant false memories in them from the spiritual level. Under the premise of preserving their identity, they would become loyal and capable subordinates.
Then.
The families of many members who were originally political prisoners of the alliance would disappear. After this group of people changed their identities, they would become the high-end talent reserve under Elvin with the identity of the descendants of the fallen merchants.
Even the worst of them could be sent to be a grammar teacher for the Atreans who were constantly naturalizing as the spiritual wave became more and more intense, helping them integrate into the warm family of Georgia.
Snap!
Elvin snapped his fingers lightly.
"There is no need to kill people, and I can still kill many birds with one stone. Primitive accumulation and talent reserve are all in place. This gift package is really considerate. "
.....
At this time, the sunset on the horizon gradually glowed red.
The navies of both sides, who had just experienced a great battle, had all landed on the shore.
After dealing with the prisoners of war, the Alliance Army was divided into dozens of small troops. Under the command of a large number of grassroots officers, they headed inland at the first time. They would be the first to enter the nearby county capitals.
And the first city to be liberated from the "evil clutches" of the bourgeoisie was Hereford City.
The civilians of the city lined the streets and shouted:
"Long live the Alliance!"
"The Goddess' warriors have come to save us!"
"We are still Tulip people, not slaves of the Ilya Republic!"
The people, who had been tormented by the capitalists for three months, were no longer as infuriated as they had been at the beginning when they couldn't wait to exterminate the nobles and the royal family.
That was why happiness came from comparison.
During this period of time, they were not only slaves for industrialization, but also food for the ghouls. Although his life in the past wasn't that great, compared to now, it was simply heaven!
After completely liberating the city of Hereford and pacifying the people, the Alliance Army quickly advanced.
If the Alliance Army had not followed Elvin's strategic plan and chosen the third level of people represented by the capitalist, they would have rushed over as soon as the uprising was completed.
How could the civilians who could only fight desperately to protect the fruits of the uprising be as relaxed and happy as they were now?
Once again, it proved that Elvin's guiding principle of understanding the class conflict was not wrong.
So.
After Elvin dealt with his spoils of war, he brought his sister and Olivia back to Hereford City, which had been turned into a military camp. The "Halberd of Lightning", who was in charge of the overall situation, immediately found him.
"Master Garriott, is there anything else we need to pay attention to in the next strategic process of the Alliance?"
In front of Elvin, who was only a Major General, Augustus did not have the arrogance of a Titled Knight.
This Titled Knight saw it very clearly.
Although he himself was a Grade 4 Adept, he had never killed a Grade 4 Adept before. However, this ferocious man who seemed to have the temperament of a scholar had nearly killed two Grade 4 Adepts despite being an upper Grade 3 Adept. Even if he wanted to deal with Huggins and Pikeman, it wouldn't be harder for him.
As the number one hero of this war, he was also the chief designer of the strategic plan. It was just that before the war began, he had not stood on the front stage.
"Sir Augustus, you are too kind. There is no mistake in the guiding principle, and the strategic direction has been fully planned. The rest of the work will be done according to the actual situation.
The only thing to pay attention to is the discipline of the military. Now is the critical moment for the Alliance to rebuild the trust of the people of Ilya. We must restore the image of the [Royal Power] in the hearts of the people. This is the prerequisite for all the subsequent work of the Alliance. "
"Alright, I understand. I will arrange it now."
Augustus nodded solemnly, as if his words were the golden rule.
Anita and Olivia, who were following behind Elvin, looked at the back of their younger brother (fiancé). At the same time, their hearts were filled with an invisible emotion. The feeling of teaching a Guardian of the Kingdom how to do things was simply … too good to be true!
Suddenly.
* Clang! Clang! Clang! *
As the distant sound of a bell rang in the void, the sky, which was already close to dusk, suddenly turned bright again as if time had reversed.
At the same time, the many residents and soldiers in the city raised their heads and shouted "Miracle" and "Angel".
Pieces of feathers that looked like condensed sunlight fell from the sky. The holy and warm power instantly dispelled the chill of the late autumn season.
Then.
The heavily wounded in this war were gradually out of danger, and the lightly wounded were immediately healed. Even those who were not injured were all glowing with glory.
With the protection of the battlefield's miracle medicine, "Penicillin", the indirect death rate should be reduced to an unbelievable level.
What was even more far-reaching was the large-scale blessing from the angel this time. It showed that in this war that determined the future of the Tulip Family, the righteousness of the victorious side had been recognized by God.
Three minutes later, the light in the city gradually dissipated.
However, the light on Elvin's body became brighter and brighter. It even slowly formed a shining halo with a cross-shaped star above his head, illuminating the entire street.
Anita and Olivia were then followed by the exclamations of surprise.
In the nearby Alliance fleet, the priests from the "Church of the Iron Cross" had already knelt down. They were so excited that they looked like they were about to faint at any time. They kept shouting:
"A saint recognized by God!"
"St. Elvin!"
"St. Elvin!"
Elvin slowly lowered his head at a loss. He looked at the black cross emblem with an anchor point at the bottom that suddenly appeared on the back of his left hand.
After recognizing what it was, his expression instantly became very interesting:
"This is the church's … Sacred Mark? It represents a saint whose status is not lower than the church's archbishop! "
Realizing that this was the masterpiece of the holy angel that had just appeared, he could only laugh and cry:
"Brother, can this thing be forcefully bought and sold? I'm at most a freaking believer. "
.....
In the next few days.
As the Alliance sent troops from all directions to enter Ilia, the situation in this turbulent country gradually stabilized.
And the prelude of the Alliance's rewards gradually opened with the arrival of the reward order for the number one meritorious minister.
Without a doubt, with Elvin's battle record of killing a Fourth Order, he could be regarded as another guardian of the kingdom. If he was a proper Knight, at this time, he would be able to establish an independent country.
Of course, the reward could not be too stingy.
And after three years, the Queen had promised to give him the title of Earl in the Upper Council. Naturally, it was impossible to simply give him the title of Earl. Her Majesty the Queen could not afford to lose face like that.
From Viscount directly to Earl, he was promoted to Marquis and became one of the top nobles in the kingdom.
In fact.
After seeing his performance in this battle, the Queen wanted to directly give him the title of Prince and firmly tie him down. Unfortunately …
This title promotion order was also within Elvin's expectations.
Even in the ancient feudal period, starting from Marquis, the territory could already be called a Marquis Kingdom. In addition to being restricted by the suzerain in politics and diplomacy, the law, tariffs, and so on enjoyed complete autonomy.
Not to mention that Elvin's base camp was actually a new continent separated by a sea.
Before obtaining the 120,000 square kilometers of Ugor Island, the mainland area of the Kingdom of Faletis was only a little more than 600,000 square kilometers.
If Elvin's original Georgia territory (100,000 square kilometers) was placed in the mainland, not to mention a Viscount, it was completely qualified to be a Duke's territory.
After putting down the worries of being forcibly tied to the church's war chariot, he gladly accepted the new title of Earl.
Elvin, his sister, and Olivia, who were still in Ilia, looked at the map of the Ilia Kingdom in front of them together and were thinking about the same question:
"So, where should we choose the second territory of our Marquis Kingdom?"
