Half a year later, November 191 of the Haiyuan Calendar.
The chaotic region of Cabral, which was supposed to be the backyard garden of the Duchy of Garot, was intervened by the followers of the ancient gods. After experiencing a chaotic situation in which countless small forces quietly disappeared, the Duchy of Garot was now in a state of chaos.
Together with the former Deputy Royal District of Shilius and La Plata, it had formed a whole — the Federation of the Golden Palm formed by 27 countries (states).
The name came from the old name of the Atlian natives for Cabral, "Land of the Palm Trees."
The "Federal Convention" jointly introduced by the representatives of the 27 countries was the fundamental law.
The convention stipulated that on the premise that each country (state) retained its sovereignty, freedom, and independence, there was only a congress in the center of the confederation, where each country (state) would send 2-7 representatives every year, and each state would only have one vote.
At the same time, the congress was authorized to handle certain foreign affairs, declare war, regulate the coinage of precious metals, determine the standards of weights and measures, borrow money, establish a postal system, build roads, and recruit armies and navies.
However, these powers were not exclusive to the congress, but shared by all the countries (states).
The most important thing was that the congress itself was not qualified to tax and raise funds from the federal citizens, and could only collect funds from the states.
Even with such a loose federal system, the originally chaotic Cabral had been unified into a behemoth with a population of close to 40 million that no one dared to underestimate.
The congress of the Federation of the Golden Palm was located in Camsid City, which was the closest to the Fog Sea. During the recess of the congress, there was a standing committee appointed by the congress to handle daily affairs.
Tap … tap … tap …
Standing committee member Madam Yeherr walked out of the congress building in exquisite high heels produced by the duchy, followed by the hook-nosed youth, Giant Falcon God Fronida, and Flake, who had been promoted to commander of the Faceless Men.
After the three of them boarded the carriage waiting at the door, Fronida bowed to Yeherr and asked,
"Madam, are we returning to Amapa today?"
Amapa was the northernmost state of the Federation of the Golden Palm, with an area of 140,000 square kilometers, bordering Shilius' New Granada.
It was also the current stronghold of the Church of Mourning in the Southern Continent, where it enjoyed complete sovereignty.
Although the Federation of the Golden Palm received far less attention than the Lowland Republic of the Source Continent, the founding of the nation had been completed, and the masterminds behind the scenes naturally divided the fruits of victory without hesitation.
They were led by the "Corrupted Adherent" Yellen and the "Blasphemer" Bradley.
The Chief of the Curse School, "Death Messenger", the High Totem God, "Rain God" Chuck, the "Voodoo" and "Pope" Lavieu, "Church of Mourning" Yeherr had replaced the Evangelical Church.
These six high-level Extraordinaires occupied the wealthiest places in the entire Federation, and each of them had become a local tyrant.
There was a small interlude.
The Church of Evangelism that was already "incurable" had been completely abandoned by the Disease Angel. It very "wisely" entrusted the great responsibility of spreading "Its" glory in the material world to the Church of Mourning.
At the same time.
After an intelligent creature was corrupted, although their intelligence would not be affected, their strength would be greatly increased. . to the Chaos God To the God to's to God to be to the God
The faith that could provide for the Chaos Worm was less than one tenth of the real believers. The other ancient gods, including the God of Black Wings, did not enjoy any benefits at all.
To the gods, worldly benefits were nothing, but faith was something they had to fight for.
In the end, the Federation was formed, which did not seem to be conducive to centralized governance.
Of course, because of the Gorse and part of the Invincible Fleet, the chaos in the Southern Continent had far exceeded the expectations of the Ancient Gods.
The situation where everyone was in charge of their own affairs gave Elvin, who had returned triumphantly, the opportunity to mix a lot of sand into the federation.
As for how many people he had bought, how many Faceless Men he had sent, and how many potential fence-sitters he had indirectly controlled … Probably only Elvin, Olivia, and the Chief of Intelligence, Besmir, knew.
The biggest contributor was, of course, the "Raven Lady" Yeherr, who had entered the core power of the Federation of the Golden Palm early on.
"Sigh, this is all master's mission!"
Yeherr reached out and touched the lock mark on her chest, which was now hidden under her skin. From now on, she could no longer be an evil deity without any scruples.
The "Raven Lady" had no choice but to become one of the heads of the duchy's secret service in the Federation of the Golden Palm. But because the path of transcendence could not be deceived, the Ancient Gods' Kin could not imagine any reason for her to betray them.
Furthermore, with the world's consciousness acting as a witness to the contract, the Sworn Prison wasn't something inferior existences like the high-ranking existences in the spirit world could compare with. Even someone as powerful as the Disease Angel wouldn't be able to discover any clues.
"Today, I'm going to visit that strange Crown Wizard and find out what he's really like. You two are not of sufficient transcendence, so you don't have to come with me. "
"Yes, ma 'am."
Flanida and Flake looked at each other. Naturally, they knew who Yeherr's mission target was.
If the Tulip Alliance was the force that benefited the most after the fall of Shilius, then the person who benefited the most was none other than the "Death Messenger".
This was because the first seat of the School of Curses had used the [Curse of the Nation] on the Shilius Empire to become a Grade 4 Crown Wizard.
He broke through the limits of human knowledge and obtained the [Crown] bestowed by the World's Origin!
There was also the fundamental spell of this path that came from the knowledge of the school and transcended it — [Root Spell: Forbidden Spell].
Relying on the technological hegemony that surpassed all human beings, the powerful power of this path was condensed into one sentence. It was somewhat like the [Legendary Battleship Technique] of the legendary battleship. It was a great spell that could achieve miracles.
For example, a small spark could burn a city to the ground, and a breath of air could freeze a large lake.
Although it was not as absolute as the [Titled Sacred Weapon], it was not something that could be compared to the "Elemental Activation" and the "Elemental Activation" of the superior wizards.
For such a mysterious existence to become a Grade 4 "Crown Wizard", one could imagine the pressure on Elvin's side.
Before he could get the exact information of the opponent and make targeted precautions, he could only rely on the nature of the "Primo" immunity to most curses, and the "School of Curses" of the opponent to make him hesitate.
Elvin should be thankful that he did not continue to cause further damage to the Shilius Empire.
This allowed the "Death Messenger" to only break through to Grade 4 and not complete the great feat of [Truth Concretion].
With the destruction of the medium [Sea King], the first layer of the [Golden Olive Triple Crown] had completely collapsed, and [Black Olof] was only a half-finished product.
As early as half a year ago, when the war had just ended, all the members of the "School of Curses" had quietly left Shilius and returned to the New World.
Back then, they had borrowed the power of [Mysterious Origin – Black Olof] to forcefully modify the contract with Shilius and spread the consequences to all the members of the school, borrowing the strength of the entire school to resist the backlash.
As long as the Shilius Empire's fate declined fast enough and thoroughly enough, the entire "School of Curses" would welcome their own nirvana rebirth.
Currently, the Nirvana Rebirth that they had envisioned could not be achieved for the time being. However, with the support of a rank 4 Crowned Sorcerer and the half-completed [Black Olof], the 'School of Curses' had successfully broken free from the restraints of the contract.
For the time being, they had joined the side of the ancient gods and planned for the future. They had become a great enemy that the Duchy of Garot had to face.
.....
Duchy of Garot, White Swan Castle.
In the guest room that belonged to the Grand Duke, the chubby trade director of the Donglun Company, Nekardo, stood up and said goodbye.
"Your Majesty, I will immediately depart for the Peacock Islands. Once again, thank you for giving me this opportunity. Nekardo will definitely live up to your expectations! "
Over the years, with the help of biological enzyme preparations, Nekardo's appearance was not much different from Elvin when he first came to the New World.
Elvin waved his hand and encouraged him.
"Go ahead and do it. Whether it is your ability or your character, Madam Olivia and I have full trust in you."
After the war, the work of taking over the various interests had come to an end, especially the largest piece of cake — the Peacock Islands. The Tulip Family continued the way Shilius used to rule.
The Donglun Company became the nominal ruler of the Peacock Islands in the capacity of a business group.
According to the distribution plan agreed upon before the war, several monarchs restructured the shares of the Donglun Company, which was originally solely owned by Faletis.
The Duchy of Garot took 40% of the shares, Faletis took 30%, Tyro Kingdom took 20%, and the other three countries, who were mainly responsible for the distribution of shares, shared the remaining 10%.
Duchess Olivia Garot was the major shareholder and chairman of the board of directors. She had the highest authority in the Donglun Company, such as convening the board of directors and dismissing the CEO.
The management organization was an executive committee composed of representatives from seventeen countries. Nekardo was one of the executive committee representatives sent by the Duchy to the Peacock Islands. He was the spokesperson of the Duchy's rights.
As for the CEO of the Donglun Company, it was still the Great Knight Nehemiah who had led the business organization for more than twenty years.
Nekardo did not use [Dream Cruise] to quickly teleport. He also shouldered the task of taking a large flying scissors to the New World — the Peacock Islands route.
Now.
Almost all the ordinary merchant ships in the Alliance had stopped construction and were gradually becoming popular. It did not take more than a month for flying scissors to cross the Black Sea. The transportation cost was greatly reduced.
With the increasingly prosperous ocean shipping, the development of the Duchy was naturally on the fast track.
Even if the steam-powered ships were launched in the future, limited by the supporting facilities and other factors, the flying scissors would not be completely eliminated in a few decades.
As soon as Nekardo left, Milan pushed the door open excitedly.
"We're all ready. We're just waiting for you. Go, let's get to work! Let's get to work! "
The news of Death Messenger's promotion put a lot of pressure on the higher-ups of the Duchy.
Even with Eherr the Raven, the mole, and the Faceless agents in the Confederation of Golden Palm had completed a large-scale infiltration and could easily obtain the menu of several high-ranking Transcendents.
Elvin was still deeply afraid of this sudden rise of a strong neighbor, and the sense of urgency had turned into a force that spurred him on.
Our slogan is: infrastructure! Infrastructure! Infrastructure!
After half a year of preparation, the Sea King and Valhalla that they picked up would be put to great use after being processed.
Elvin had a bold idea this time. He wanted to build a living biological battleship — the Legendary Battleship, Gem Creek!
