Just as the Federation President was reflecting, a secret meeting was taking place on the other side of Sky City. The people in the meeting were the core members of the [Silver Hands]. There were a total of five people, known as the "Silver Five Fingers".
The five of them were all old men, and the youngest among them was already over 65 years old. They were the true masters behind the top five aristocratic families in the world, the true powerhouses of a region.
The series of actions that the [Silver Hands] took against Shanhai City didn't alarm these five people. Because as far as they were concerned, Ouyang Shuo was only a young fellow that had just come out into the world, and he wasn't worthy of their personal attention.
This view was no different from that of the Federation President.
However, as Shanhai City was about to be established, the situation had changed. That night, the five Magnates finally sat together and seriously discussed their strategy against Shanhai City.
The one who was speaking was the leader of the [Silver Hands], codenamed [No.1]. [No.1] said, "Now it seems that even with the help of other regions, the [Yanhuang Alliance] won't be able to suppress Shanhai City in the China region. My opinion is to adjust the strategy. As long as we destroy Shanhai City's overseas forces, we can trap Shanhai City in the China region. This way, no matter how powerful Shanhai City is, it won't be able to shake the foundation of the organization. What do you guys think? "
The others didn't have any objections, but [No.2]'s face obviously darkened. He was Di Chen's grandfather.
[No.1] smiled and said, "[No.2], you don't have to be depressed. The organization will continue to support what should be supported. No matter what, the organization needs the [Yanhuang Alliance] to hold Shanhai City in the China region. If you want technology, weapons, and talents, it's all just a matter of a word. "
[No.2] nodded silently. He could only blame his bad luck for encountering such a thing. Who asked Ouyang Shuo to appear in the China region?
Speaking of which, [Number Two] had met Ouyang Shuo once.
It was during the first year of Gaia. Feng Qiuhuang wanted to leave the Feng Family and go solo, and Ouyang Shuo rushed to Luo Feng City to support her.
At that time, Ouyang Shuo was too arrogant, and [No.2] was not optimistic about him.
Who would have thought that in just three years, the once arrogant youth had completely transformed into a calm and cunning king, pressuring the members of the [Yan Huang Alliance] to the point where they couldn't breathe.
Even Feng Qiuhuang, this girl, soared into the sky and completely turned the situation around. She sat on the throne of the Feng Clan's Patriarch, which made these old men's jaws drop.
Although his grandson Di Chen had already grown up, he was still nothing compared to him.
"This game is really tempering." [Number Two] sighed with emotion. If Ouyang Shuo, the "anomaly", didn't shine brightly, he might feel gratified for his grandson's growth.
The federation's original intention of designing 'Earth On Le' had basically been achieved.
Fortunately, the five Giants were people who were used to seeing big storms and big waves. Even though Ouyang Shuo was dazzling, he wasn't worthy of them taking the trouble to deal with him. After a brief mention, this matter was dropped.
[Number One] finally said, "Prepare for the Mediterranean Sea as well. Don't let Shanhai City really rise overseas. If that's the case, I'm afraid we'll really be in trouble. "
[Number Four] listened and nodded. He was the true overlord of the Mediterranean Sea.
After discussing the matters of Shanhai City, the five old men started to talk about other matters. They talked about some interesting matters of the younger generation of their clans. It was a joyous and harmonious atmosphere.
In comparison, they were more relaxed than the Federation President.
Gaia Year 4, 17th April, Shanhai City.
Tomorrow was the coronation ceremony. Shanhai City was already tense. The preparations for the various ceremonies were nearing completion. They were doing the final rehearsals and confirmations.
The entire city was drowned in noble gold and festive red. The entire central street was covered in a thick red carpet. It was extremely shocking. Teams of imperial guards dressed in red armor patrolled the main streets. The central street, in particular, had been cleared a day in advance.
Unauthorized people were not allowed to approach.
The various landmarks in the city were also decorated with lanterns and streamers. It was much grander than the lantern festival. The citizens, merchants, and schools in the city took action spontaneously, decorating their respective territories in a festive manner.
As for the main venue of the coronation ceremony, Royal City, it was even grander. Every main street was covered in red carpet, decorated with various auspicious patterns of fresh flowers.
On every street in Royal City, there was an imperial guard standing guard every meter. There were also teams of imperial guards standing in front of the various government offices. The 3,000 Divine Martial Guards shouldered the heavy responsibility of guarding the palace.
The atmosphere of the entire Royal City was solemn and solemn. There was no room for trifling. The officials who came and went also subconsciously tightened their faces, not daring to speak loudly.
The plaque of the Protectorate of Southern Border had been taken down and replaced with a plaque that read "Summer Palace".
A viewing platform was set up in the square in front of the Summer Palace. It was prepared for the military parade of the coronation ceremony. For the coronation ceremony tomorrow, Shanhai City would hold the grandest military parade in history.
The Imperial Guard, the City Guard, the Dragon Stallion Army, the Stalwart Tiger Army, and the Hidden Leopard Army would each send one of their most elite brigades to participate in the parade. The Xunzhou County Guard Division, as the representative of the local guard divisions, would also send a brigade to participate. Then there was the navy. The five fleets would each send a sentry sergeant to participate in the parade, including the flintlock squad. The Marine Corps, which was currently undergoing training in the Special Warfare Base, would also send a brigade to participate in the parade.
The Cliff Mountain Fleet would also send a battalion of sailors to patrol the Friendship River outside the city on warships.
During the parade, there would also be a display of twelve P1 cannons. Even the newly formed war elephant unit would send nine war elephants to participate in the parade. At that time, the aerial unit would also perform in the sky above Shanhai City.
The only ones who could not participate in the parade were the Divine Martial Guards. The Divine Martial Guards would not leave Ouyang Shuo's side for the coronation ceremony the next day, so there was no way for them to participate in the parade.
In addition to the army of Shanhai City, Fallen Phoenix City, Hardstone City, and Black Lion City would each send a brigade to participate in the grand parade as allies.
There were more than 30,000 officers and soldiers participating in the parade. It was truly a majestic sight.
At this moment, all the troops participating in the parade had gathered in Shanhai City in advance. They were stationed in the Royal Guards' camp, training day and night in preparation for tomorrow's parade.
…
At nine o 'clock in the morning, the Queen of Atlantis and her entourage arrived at Shanhai City through the teleportation formation in the Base City.
Ouyang Shuo personally rushed to the teleportation formation to welcome them.
The lineup of Kalia and her entourage was somewhat beyond Ouyang Shuo's expectations. In addition to the Atlantean diplomatic group, there were actually ten Mediterranean Sea Lords accompanying them.
Ouyang Shuo immediately understood that this was the surprise that Kalia had mentioned. She had also put in a lot of effort. Previously, when she knew that Shanhai City had encountered difficulties in inviting the lords, she used some unknown method to bring the Mediterranean Sea Lords over.
"Is this Shanhai City? It's really spectacular! "
Even though Kalia was born in the mysterious Atlantis City, she did not hide her admiration for Shanhai City. Both cities had their own charm and represented the charm and heritage of the Eastern and Western cultures.
Kalia smiled slightly and began to introduce the ten accompanying lords to Ouyang Shuo. It could be seen that these lords were in awe of Kalia. He really did not know what means this queen had used.
Ouyang Shuo shook hands with them one by one.
"Please!"
After a brief exchange of greetings, Ouyang Shuo personally led the way.
In order to entertain the distinguished guests participating in the coronation ceremony, the Construction Department specially transformed the pavilion that was previously built in the Southwest University China Hall to entertain the disciples of the Hundred Schools of Thought into a posthouse to entertain the distinguished guests.
Naturally, it was also extremely luxurious.
In the posthouse, Ouyang Shuo talked with Kalia alone for half an hour, mainly about the latest situation in the Mediterranean Sea. Speaking of this, Kalia's smile had already disappeared.
Kalia reminded him, "Ouyang, the Mediterranean Sea has been very treacherous and unstable recently. You have to be careful."
Ouyang Shuo nodded and mentioned the [Silver Hand] to her.
Kalia was greatly shocked when she heard this.
"No wonder the members of the Mediterranean Alliance are wavering this time. Even Henry did not agree to attend your coronation ceremony. So that's why. If that's the case, can you handle it? "Kalia was a little worried.
Ouyang Shuo smiled and said, "There might be some turbulence, but it's alright. I know what I'm doing."
"That's good." Kalia smiled and suddenly said playfully, "Ouyang, I want to meet your wife. I want to see what kind of legendary woman she is to be able to capture your heart."
Ouyang Shuo shook his head in amusement. Western women were just that bold.
"Alright, I'll have my attendants send you to the palace later. You guys will have a good chat. "
Kalia smiled and clapped her hands. "That's great!"
Ouyang Shuo's schedule was full today. Kalia was a considerate woman and did not ask Ouyang Shuo to stay for long. She smiled and said, "Ouyang, go ahead!"
"Then have fun." Ouyang Shuo bade farewell and left.
… …
Kalia seemed to have made a good start. Following that, distinguished guests arrived one after another. Without a doubt, those who came today were the allies of Shanhai City. There was no need to mention Feng Qiuhuang and the others.
The three ancient tribes, the Yellow Emperor Tribe, the Yan Emperor Tribe, and the Shang Tribe, also arrived one after another. What surprised Ouyang Shuo was that among the Yan Emperor Tribe's delegation, he saw the girl that he had met once before.
After not seeing her for three years, the little girl from back then had already grown into a slender and elegant young lady.
"Big Brother Ouyang!" The girl greeted him crisply.
Ouyang Shuo smiled. For some reason, he had a natural good impression of the girl. The girl also knew that it was Ouyang Shuo who secretly arranged people to save her life on the battlefield map. Naturally, she was very close to Ouyang Shuo.
However, after entering the wilderness, the Yan Emperor did not allow the girl to go out. Otherwise, the girl would have run to Shanhai City to play with Ouyang Shuo.
This time, when she heard that Big Brother Ouyang was going to ascend the throne, the girl pestered the Yan Emperor to let her come with the delegation. The Yan Emperor could not resist and finally agreed to the girl's request.
