On July 17, Year 220 of the Haiyuan Calendar, the Storm Belt at the end of the world.
The power level was beyond that of a true god. It was like a fierce storm that could tear steel apart. It had been raging for millions of years and had stopped all the mortals in the material world and even the gods from further exploring the truth of the world.
Of course.
In the past tens of millions of years, the weak human beings couldn't even conquer the Shattered Star Sea, which had terrible weather and was full of dangers, let alone the Storm Belt set up by the Observer Civilization.
However, today …
Boom!
A [Leyline Seal — Alter] was smashed onto an island that was only two kilometers away from the 'Storm Belt'. The nearby storm seemed to have stopped for a moment.
Then, a gigantic stone tablet the size of a small mountain fell from the sky, causing the entire island to shake violently.
On the smooth stone tablet, which seemed to have been split by a sword, was written, "The end of the world, I've come, I've conquered!" It was signed by … Anita Garriott.
After a loud dragon roar.
In the sky, an Upper Level Oceanic Emperor Dragon that was more than 30 meters long turned back into a human and slowly landed on the top of the stone tablet.
Anita, who was as beautiful as ever, was wearing a white shirt with flowery sleeves and brown slim pants. She gently combed her long emerald hair that was like clouds.
Looking at the Storm Belt that was close at hand and the dukedom's combat personnel who landed on the island in warships and airships, she felt the [World's Favor] that was almost boiling in her body. She was very happy.
"We finally succeeded!"
The exploration of the Shattered Star Sea began in Year 198 of the Haiyuan Calendar. It had been 22 years since then.
Since the beginning of the Steam Industrial Revolution, human science and technology had been continuously improving.
By building stable logistics bases, using steamships, airships, warships, and [Colossi] to occupy islands, and using the [Leyline Seal] to suppress the rioting magic elements.
The massive resources in the Shattered Star Sea were continuously transported back to the civilized world, further accelerating the speed of technological progress.
It took the Duchy of Garriott eight years, which was Year 206 of the Haiyuan Calendar, to take the lead in advancing to the Eastern Islands of the Fourth Era where Jondrilick was located.
It was in this year that a vision fell from the sky. The moon hanging high in the sky shone brightly, and the material world welcomed its own [Goddess of Stars and Moon].
At the same time, the [International Democratic Alliance] and the [Monarch's Shield] were two major political, economic, and military groups.
It had also experienced a profound change from an arms race that had been restrained in the past to friction and conflict that had been completely put on the table, even if this conflict had temporarily stopped outside the civilized world.
Then, it took another six years, and in 212, they advanced to the East Two Islands where the Muria Civilization was located in the third era.
Five years later, in the year 217, they had advanced to the second era, "Eikottel."
Perhaps it was because more high-yield crop seeds from this "food civilization" were brought back to the human world.
One day in the summer of that year.
With the Duchy of Garrett as the center, all the crops in the land began to grow wildly. When autumn came, there was no doubt that it would usher in a bountiful harvest that had never been seen in the entire fifth era of human history!
After that, the Goddess of Bumper Harvest quietly went online.
After that, another three years passed.
By the time it was Year 220 of the Sea Origin Calendar, humanity had already advanced to the western islands of the First Era, where the Gendaya civilization was located.
At the same time, they had also arrived at the original location of the "Golden Kingdom" at the end of the world.
However, no matter how fast the mortals progressed, all the most dangerous areas of the "Time Prison" had been removed before they explored.
Elvin, Olivia, and Milan's "tumor" removal team was qualified.
Especially after Olivia obtained the [Moon Authority], [Spiritual Purification] could be directly used by the celestial body above her head. It was simply against the rules.
It was also because their speed was fast enough.
Mortals had no idea that there were such strange scenes as the "Time Prison" and the "Lost Race of the Era" in this world, let alone that everyone's good days had begun to count down.
At this point.
The "Great Voyage Era" that had lasted for 220 years was finally completed under the leadership of the Tulip Alliance.
Because of this major event that had deeply affected the course of human history and the history of the world, the power of the "Goddess of Royalty and Navigation" had once again received a huge boost.
Although it hadn't been long since she ascended to the throne of a true god, after experiencing a series of expansion and major events, the "Queen of the Sea" Hercaterpillar was by no means weak among the Seven Gods.
As for Anita, who led the Duchy's exploration team and ate the largest pieces of the cake, the rich [World's Favor] was almost overflowing from her body.
Even if she was a pure-blooded giant dragon and had a much harder time leveling up compared to normal humans, it was only a matter of time before she became a Level 5 Dragon King.
At this moment, the sound of surging water in her body was like a surging river, faintly resonating with the sea beneath her feet.
Perhaps after a short sleep, she would already be a Level 5 Dragon King in the material world when she woke up.
Snap!
Anita reached out and snapped her fingers, connecting to the [Mental Network]. She "arrogantly" ordered the other side of the radio wave.
"Elvin, it's done. Prepare a celebratory feast for me!"
"Haha, roger that!"
.....
The "Sea of Stars" at the periphery of the world.
In the middle of the vast silver ocean, there floated a vast 'star' with black, red, and gold as its main colors.
In the deep palace that looked like a military fortress, a tall angel was playing chess for his own amusement.
He wore a snow-white robe, and behind him were three pairs of wings that seemed to be made of pure gold. His entire body was rippling with circles of golden divine light, gorgeous and dazzling.
It was one of the incarnations of the "God of Black Wings" — the "Prosperity Angel."
Clack!
Holding the black chess piece, he gently placed it down. After the black infantrymen in his hand ate the white cavalry, he advanced to the opponent's bottom line and ascended into a chariot according to the rules, blocking the white king.
"Heh … True God? The World's Will? "
At this point in the game, the "Prosperity Angel" stared at the empty opponent seat and sat up straight again.
Obviously.
In this chess game, his imaginary enemy seemed to be a True God, or perhaps … this world?
"[Mythical Battleship Najirfa] has been prepared, and all 42 offerings have been gathered. Now … it's time for the [Capital Trend] to be sublimated!
These chess pieces that I've painstakingly cultivated for many years, please don't let me down. Don't you think so … His Majesty Bilreth? "
Rumble …
Although the curtains in the palace did not move at all, there seemed to be a storm whistling in his ears.
At the same time, the vast black, red, and gold star of the True God's divine kingdom flickered, like a bright "Mars" that was about to jump on a horse and go to war!
.....
On the central avenue of Camsid, the capital of the Federation of Golden Palms, in the banquet hall on the top floor of the Marigold Building.
"Cheers!"
"To the federation's new overseas colonies!"
"To our successful harvest again! Hahaha … "
Here, well-dressed gentlemen and ladies were toasting each other, and it was like a different world from the bleak scene of the outside world.
Some sociologists and financial scientists had realized that the possibility of economic crisis had been created after the emergence of money, but it was only realistic under the capitalist mode of production.
This was determined by the basic contradiction of the capitalist mode of production, that is, the contradiction between the social nature of production and capitalist private ownership.
It had been concluded that there were four different stages: crisis, depression, recovery, and boom.
This kind of crisis would occur every seven to ten years. The Federation of Golden Palms had only been established for a short 20 years, but it had already experienced three financial crises.
And every financial crisis was a long-planned and precise directional explosion. The shiny new financial buildings were always built on the ruins of thousands of bankrupt people.
In the eyes of these multinational corporations, all living beings were leeks.
In order to better harvest, they had even established a whole set of ruling arts.
From the economy, culture, education … Many aspects, in the "pigsty" that was carefully designed by capital, they cultivated the most obedient people, and also made the ruling class always the ruler!
Of course.
Even these social elites who boasted that they stood above all living beings did not have the means to know what the world was going through, and the evil gods could not tell them.
They regarded all living beings as leeks, but didn't the gods also regard them as chess pieces?
Now, the crisis of the world was not known to the capitalists, and they were still thinking about their own capital.
"Not enough, not enough. Most of the land in this world is still a dark place where the light of democracy can't shine!"
The president of the Central Bank of Golden Palms and the current executive chairman of the Eye of Wealth, Argo, held a wine glass, but he was not satisfied with the "harvest" that came once every ten years like some people.
Now.
With the completion of the "Shattered Star Sea", the interests of the entire material world were completely divided up.
At the same time, the "Electrical Industry Revolution" finally surpassed the "Steam Industry" and became the mainstream with its own advantages, allowing many countries to complete the second industrial revolution and create unimaginable wealth.
With limited resources, many forces had unprecedented power, and this situation naturally began to fuel the ambitions of some people.
Of course, the rest was … the redistribution of interests around the world!
The world was bustling for profit, and the world was bustling for profit. Many problems in this world were ultimately problems of profit.
On the other hand, the greed of humans was … limitless.
