Realm of Power

The fat man's study is still in the same place, which is the top of the connection between the Vic Harbor Lighthouse and the castle. It is also an excellent location for overlooking the scenery. On one side is the beautiful sparkling sea, and on the other side is the crowded street market full of infinite vitality. lane,

The construction pattern of Vic Port is like seven huge inner rings. With Vic Castle on the top of the mountain as the commanding height, seven consecutive city walls surrounding it turn the entire city into seven blocks, connecting the inland river to the sea. Haikou is wonderfully introduced into the street circulation. Merchant ships carrying goods, carriages loaded with goods, and cheerful pedestrians on the streets all walk on the same plane, integrating artistic beauty and the defensive practicality of the castle.

Walking on the ring road at the bottom, as long as you stretch out your hand out of curiosity, you can touch the surface of the ship sliding along the river. It looks so incredible that anyone who comes to this city for the first time will feel Everyone will feel a shock from the soul. There are countless shops along the street. Couples walking arm in arm with each other and letting out a burst of joyful laughter from their mouths.

The city of Vic in the North is called the "City of Hope" by all Salanders.

The unbearable harm left by the smoke of war can no longer be seen here. The bustling streets and peaceful life make it easier for people to forget the suffering that has happened here, whether it is the original northerners or the Sasha who migrated from the central part of the country. The Rand people already regard this place as the center of the north, the new Kyoto of the Salander people.

The people from Wikiia across the sea regard this place as the most prosperous trade center, a place where countless dreams of wealth can be achieved. The best way to heal the wounds of war is to fill them with peace and development. Here, trade from all over the continent Cargo piled up like mountains, and there were fleets turning to the port of Rode Sea. There are also caravans from the central Kingdom of Ruidian. Recently, even sporadic fleets have arrived from the far northern polar regions.

This is a simple microcosm of the entire northern Salander. In the war with the Normans, the northern part of Salander suffered the least losses and trauma because of the obstruction in the middle. As the Falcon Empire established its dominance over the entire Salander . Among the original several traditional northern forces, several large families who firmly supported Nilay during the civil war became part of the Northern Dominion.

Their territory was retained, but the number of troops was reduced. As compensation, the empire gave them the power to form family caravans, and their goods were only charged one-half of the normal trade tax within Salander.

Deter with force. In exchange of wealth for loyalty, the various forces in the north successively recognized the Grand Duchess Nilai as the co-owner of the north, and the Falcon Empire also completed the alliance of interests through Nilai. He firmly tied the northern region of Salander to his rolling chariot.

Beautiful scenery and developed maritime trade. It also made this place a pure land where countless nobles who were affected by the war in Ikadiva aspired to migrate. They sold their land and manors and villas and came here with their families. They injected new vitality into the recovery of the north. In just one year, the population of the north quickly increased from 500,000 to 3.5 million. people, accounting for three-fifths of the entire Salander population,

The trading status of the northern port of Salander is like a huge commodity transfer station. The advantage of a convenient crossroads on the sea has also changed the mentality of the Salander people. With the prosperity of commercial activities, the original ethnic groups Boundaries have gradually faded through mutual exchanges and integration. Even a stranger who has just stepped off the ship will feel a warm atmosphere from the huge slogan "Saland welcomes you" erected at the port.

"Your Majesty," the beautiful Nilai gently pushed open the door of the study. She poked her head playfully and took a look. The person on duty last night was Rui Tangtingna, the princess of the East Court. When she passed by the door corridor just now, Nilai did not see Rui Tangtingna. It is possible that Tang Tingna went back to her room to rest, or there is another possibility that she was in the silly fat man's room.

This has become a tacit understanding among many princesses. Fatty is not a very proactive person, so taking the rotation is a rare opportunity to get close to the Vekia Falcon.

Anyway, they are both princesses in terms of status. Even if they stay on duty in His Majesty's bed in the middle of the night, it is not unusual. In fact, in the eyes of many princesses, staying on duty and staying in bed have the same meaning.

But not all princesses are like this. Several princesses who have various intractable entanglements with fat people, such as Princess Harau of Raedian and Princess Agrahelen of Nord, are still very serious during the night watch, but in fact Everyone knows that time will change everything. When will I get to His Majesty's bed? It's just a matter of time.

Hearing the charming voice coming from behind, the fat man, who was thinking about the fate of the empire in his mind, turned around from the window sill protruding from the wall, "What's wrong? Why did my Grand Duchess get up so early today?"

There was an interesting sneer on the corner of the fat man's mouth, and his black eyes were bright and bright. Looking from the window sill behind him to the sea, he could see the white sun that had just risen from the sea. Under the sunlight, it was filled with The misty and quiet Vic Harbor is like a girl in a white dress bathing in the morning light. Various fleets of ships are lined up and moored in the harbor below.

At the upstream military port ten miles away from the port, a row of Dragon Tooth battleships were arranged majestically in two rows, with their white sails erected. In the nearby dock, two large supply ships were being renovated swayingly out of it, and a dragon was being repaired. The Japanese warship was dragging a medium-sized warship into the military port, dragging a white water line on the sea.

"I heard that the navy has found a sea route to the opposite Obaro continent. I wonder if it is true." Nilai asked hesitantly on her pretty face.

"I guess so. At least now we don't have to grope forward." The fat man nodded affirmatively. "According to the report of the Navy Department, a Dragon Tooth ship responsible for exploring the offshore currents accidentally encountered a fleet from the Obaro continent in the open sea. This time we got a very useful person, a governor of the Obaro continent port. I believe that with such a person in hand, the empire's pace to Obaro continent will be much faster."

"The empire's pace to Obaro... Your Majesty, are you going to expand the territory to Obaro continent?" Nilai blinked her beautiful eyes with a strange expression, and said in a somewhat cold and dissatisfied tone, "After experiencing the horror of war, I know the preciousness of the current peace situation. Nilai really doesn't want to see the scenes of relatives being slaughtered and people being displaced. Isn't it good now? Why go to Obaro?"
