Your Majesty, the Spectacle Has Missed the Country!

Under the threat of mutant species,

Most of the people in the Forsaken Land have developed the habit of acting vigorously and resolutely.

Because any slight delay may put them in a desperate situation when faced with threats.

Now that Great Elder Sherman Goldberg has made a decision, and the city-state of Padilla is indeed facing the threat of the beast tide, then...

A team of five messengers, headed by Grand Elder Sherman Goldberg and with Salazar as deputy, was formed in a very short period of time, and a list of names was also sent to Captain Hausen. before.

November 23rd, 538th year of the New Calendar.

With the first horn sound in the early morning, the three-masted warship "Explorer" swung away the mutant corpses floating on the sea, carrying the envoys from the Padilla city-state and the mutants roaring in the cabin. species, and finally embarked on the return journey to his homeland.

On the coast of the Forgotten Land not far away, in addition to the indigenous residents of the Padilla City State who came to see them off, a group of twenty Idar soldiers lined up neatly and headed towards the distance. The departing warships saluted with standard military salutes.

They will stay on this land as a garrison for the Idar people, and continue to collect all information about this land for their colleagues who have left.

Standing on the deck of the three-masted warship, Sherman Goldberg, the great elder of the Padilla city-state, looked at the land gradually disappearing from his eyes.

He looked at the rolling waves in the distance, and a rather complicated emotion gradually emerged in his heart.

This year's Grand Elder is nearly sixty years old, but this is the first time that Goldberg has left the land behind him.

The Principality of Idar...

Although in these days, this name has been mentioned over and over again by myself, lingering in my mind, but...

When I actually stepped onto the Idar ship and followed the Idar soldiers in front of me to the land on the other side of the ocean, I still couldn't avoid the tension deep in my heart.

If the attitude of the Idar people towards the Padilla city-state is not what he expected, and if he fails to move back to reinforce the army before the beast tide comes, then what should he... do?

finally……

After a long time, Sherman Goldberg slowly raised his head.

The sails of the three-masted warship were fully drawn, and the strong bow broke through the oncoming wind and waves.

At this moment, his eyes had become extremely determined.

Because... behind him are countless residents of the Padilla City-State who are waiting for news, and his conversation with the Idar people will also be related to the future of the entire Padilla City-State.

…

At the end of November, the Principality of Idar.

Although the cold wind in winter has become biting, the entire Principality of Idar is still in full swing.

The Idar Railway General Administration was officially established a few days ago. Both the refugees who had just entered the Idar Principality and the workers who were already engaged in the construction of wonders have once again invested in another large-scale construction site.

Starting from Fort Mann in the south to Valens Plains in the north,

Construction of a railway that passes through important industrial and commercial towns such as Idar City, Merlin District, Solenberg, and Cologne Industrial Zone has officially started on this land.

Once this railway is completed, it will inevitably become a transportation artery running through the entire north and south of the Idar Principality, making the entire eastern part of the empire more closely connected than ever before.

Of course, preparations for the construction of the railway began at the same time as the Idar Central Station located on the southwest side of Idar City.

As a replica of New York Grand Central Station, although the wonder rating of Idar Grand Central Station is only [SS] level, and it can only provide one hundred brilliance points after completion, but... some points are always better than nothing.

In this regard, Bruno is not picky at all.

after all……

As long as you have Brilliance Points in your hands, you can redeem enough good things from the mall of the wonder construction system, which will be of great benefit to the future of the Principality of Idar.

In the last life, New York Grand Central Station was located in the center of Manhattan, New York City. It was built by the Vanderbilt family, the king of American railroads. It is not only a famous landmark building in New York, but also a public art museum.

You know, the scale of this station is extremely huge.

The number of platforms alone is forty-four, not counting the more than sixty tracks leading to the train station.

Therefore, Bruno planned to give this wonder a good makeover.

For example...

The number of railway tracks is definitely not enough. Not to mention now, even when the Idar Principality occupies the entire continent, such a large number of railway tracks will not be needed at all.

Because Idar City is located in the easternmost part of the empire, although it can be regarded as the transportation hub of the eastern part of the empire, it is not the transportation hub of the entire continent. Therefore, in Bruno's opinion, only ten or twenty railway tracks need to be retained, which is completely sufficient. .

As for the rest of the place…

Although New York’s Grand Central Terminal was known as a public art museum in its previous life, it wasn’t really an art museum after all, right?

Therefore, Bruno plans to use the saved building area to build an exhibition hall that records the development of the Principality of Idar, which can also be regarded as enriching the cultural life of the Idar people.

Of course,

This is not enough!

Bruno even asked the great engineers of the Idar Principality to reserve the location of the bus station in advance. In this way... when the magic car powered by magic comes into being in the future, the long-distance bus terminal of the Idar Principality will also be considered There are ready-made ones.

The laying of railways, the construction of Idar Central Bus Terminal, and the successive large-scale infrastructure projects have not only provided a new source of livelihood for those people who were originally facing unemployment due to the completion of the construction of Idar Public University, but also provided a new source of livelihood for the Idar Immigration Administration. You can continue to receive those refugees who are blocked from the principality.

And a very important point is...

Since when other wonders were being built, the people on the construction site were able to find a suitable job whenever the wonders were completed, so the possibility of unemployment was not taken too seriously by the refugees.

But after the construction of Idar Public University was completed, when nearly half of the people could not find suitable jobs and once again faced the risk of losing their source of livelihood...

Naturally, a sense of potential crisis gradually arose in the hearts of these refugees.

After all, they had indeed been anxious for a long time before the Idar Government Office officially announced the large-scale infrastructure plan to build the railway.

And this makes them work harder and harder, hoping that their performance can be seen by the supervisor, so that they can get a higher score and find a good place to go after the project is completed.

Of course,

The reason why these refugees are unable to find jobs is not due to a surplus of labor.

Because the manufacturing of many large-scale production machines requires the production of the Idar Steel Factory in the Grand Heights.

The construction and popularization of new machines such as the Jenny Machine also take time, and businessmen and funds from all over the world are constantly pouring in, so...these problems today will always get better as time goes by.

But even so, Bruno was not idle.

He is not only trying to increase the number of jobs in the Principality of Idar by expanding the scale of the Stuart family's industry.

At the same time, it is also calling on merchants to further expand investment and allowing them to gradually deliver goods and industrial products to the inland areas of the Kingdom of Basel and the Norman Empire through the sales channels of the Idar Chamber of Commerce.

Even if it's no good, it's okay to wait until winter is over to distribute land to the refugees for farming, right?

…

The Principality of Idar in winter is indeed thriving amidst the cries of railway workers.

only……

During this period, the Principality of Idar did not develop entirely according to Bruno's original trajectory.

For example, the replacement opening ceremony of Idar Public University was not held as planned.

To be honest, the opening ceremony is actually just a gimmick.

Taking the opportunity to increase the cohesion of the Idar Principality and show the Idar Principality's comprehensive national strength to the Idar people is the most real purpose of Bruno's opening ceremony.

It is precisely for this reason that if an opening ceremony is really to be held, it will naturally require considerable preparations.

How to demonstrate national strength? How to organize people? How to promote it?

These require the Government Affairs Department to free up manpower to make arrangements.

But……

The sudden change in the situation in the interior of the empire forced Bruno to temporarily cancel the opening ceremony of Idar Public University and leave the task of demonstrating national strength to the New Year celebration of the Principality of Idar.

And there is only one reason for all this!

That is……

The church that had been silent for a long time finally came to an end in person at the end of November!

November 27, 538 in the New Calendar.

This should have been a normal day.

But on this day, under everyone's astonished gaze, the Cardinal Archbishop Camus Blanchard of the Church of Light announced that the exiled eldest prince Pitzman was the only legal heir to the Norman Empire!

The Church of Light declares that Rez Alexander, the second prince of the Norman Empire, was ambitious, killed his king and his father, persecuted the people, disobeyed the gods, and was displeased by the God of Light.

Therefore, the church refused to recognize Reitz's rule over the Norman Empire, and on November 27, 538 in the New Calendar, he proclaimed the eldest prince Pitzman as emperor in the holy city of Bethlehem, establishing the Second Norman Empire!

As soon as the news came out, the whole country was shocked!

The situation in the empire, which had been gradually calming down, became confusing again.

The imperial nobles, who originally felt that they had escaped the vortex of the war, were completely panicked.

To know,

Since the establishment of the Church of Light and the founding of the Norman Empire, the church, as a representative of divine power, has never intervened in the regime change of the Norman Empire, nor has it ever expressed any objection to the succession of the throne.

therefore……

The entrance of the Church of Light undoubtedly caught everyone off guard and made them tremble.

This has never happened in many years!

And for the newly born Rez regime, this is undoubtedly an extremely heavy blow.

Because... there are too many believers in the Church of Light!

The interior of the empire was different from the Principality of Idar, and the Alexander royal family did not control the direction of public opinion.

In addition, civilians were already half-informed about many things. Therefore, under the deliberate promotion of the church, Reitz's reputation among the civilian class almost reached a new freezing point.

This was supposed to be the time for him to consolidate his position, win over the nobles, and start to recuperate, but... the church's entry undoubtedly completely disrupted the rhythm, and it had a huge impact on Rez.

and……

It wasn't just Rez who was affected.

When Bruno received the intelligence from the Idar CIA from Krell, he was also extremely shocked!

The time and method of the church's entry were far quicker and more direct than Bruno had originally expected!

But what Bruno doesn't know is...

It was precisely because of the widespread spread of Protestantism in the eastern part of the empire that the leaders of the Church of Light sensed a potential crisis, so the time for the Church to take action was advanced!

After all...as the guardians of Protestantism, the Stuart family and the Principality of Idar are different from any other force. The beliefs spread by Protestantism are a major event that directly affects the foundation of the Church of Light!

The entry of the church made the entire Principality of Idar become more nervous than ever before.

The three consecutive issues of "Daily Idar" used front-page headlines to detail all the evil deeds the church had committed, criticizing it for confining the minds of the common people and the luxury of the church's top leaders.

In addition, "Idar Daily" also specially published interviews with Will Roach and others, and gave a detailed introduction to why they left the church and defected to the Principality of Idar.

Under Bruno's deliberate public opinion offensive, at least in the eastern part of the empire, except for a very small number of die-hard believers, Protestantism has become the absolute mainstream in society.

but……

This is not enough.

Although the Church of Light has not shown any obvious hostility to any force, under Bruno's order, the Idar Public University and the Idar military jointly issued the "Notice on the Establishment of the Idar Army Officers Academy."

The contents of the "Notice" include...

Part of the campus area of ​​the Idar Public University will be designated as the temporary residence of the Idar Army Officers Academy, and outstanding officers and soldiers from the Idar army will be selected to study at the Officers Academy, etc. UU Reading www.uukａnsｈhu.net

In fact, as the weapons and equipment of Idar's army gradually changed, Bruno had long had the idea of ​​establishing a specialized military academy.

Moreover, during the battle with the Odins at that time, Idar's army had already exposed many potential problems.

But the question is...even if a military academy is built, who should teach it?

Including Bruno, no one has ever been exposed to brand-new weapons and equipment such as magic rifles and magic cannons before, and all military strategy research needs to be started from scratch.

so,

While asking Sam Layton, Sarah Coren and other senior generals of Idar's army to study new tactics, Bruno had already exchanged relevant military teaching materials from the system mall.

After so many days of deliberation, it was finally time for the Idar Army Officers Academy to be officially opened.
