Chapter 468: One Year
The depressed person along the way was François, the space folding instrument disappeared, he should have been happy, in the future, the royal family of Western Sahara only needs to continue to perform the determination to guard the passage in front of the dukes on time, and there is no need to worry that the space folding instrument in the hands of the Mithril Society can threaten the world.
He didn't know what Jacques and Shaw were talking to, and he didn't dare ask, but Jacques and his cat, in François's eyes, were powerful and mysterious, and he believed that the cat was a beastmaster.
How could he make the beastmaster follow!
Something must be wrong here!
In addition to Jacques, there was another annoying person who made François depressed, and that was Robert, knowing Robert's identity was actually a major blow to François.
From the beginning, he didn't like the guy, and at first, François, as the second prince, had the advantage and forced Robert to bow his head, but gradually he found that he couldn't defeat him again.
In the past, even if he suffered a little loss from Robert, he would comfort himself that he would definitely take this rebellious guy for his own use in the future, he felt that Robert had the same enemies as him, and everyone would sooner or later stand in the same camp.
However, the reality is that Robert's enemy is himself, the royal family, and the entire empire.
On the one hand, he is glad that he was able to learn Robert's identity during this adventure, but on the other hand, he is troubled by the lack of effective means to deal with Robert.
Isn't it time to clean up the Mithril Society?
In the past, the royal family only cooperated with each other and secretly supported a certain vein, but did not really get into it. And the previous presidents of the Mithril Society, even if they cooperated with the royal family, protected their core secrets very well. Therefore, now the royal family only has information about some peripheral organizations, and the official members of the Mithril Society are still in a fog.
But with Robert's coordinates, digging deep into the interpersonal relationships around him should be rewarding.
What about assassinations?
The Mithril Society's top-level combat power is very powerful, and they have many source energy skills and magical items that have been passed down from ancient times, which is not realistic!
François looked at Sandra again, and immediately felt that she was a strange thing!
The contender for the president of the Mithril Society, and it can even be said that the real president in the legal sense, Robert is just an agent.
If you nurture her......
Of course, there's a way to get rid of Robert!
War!
Thinking of this, François couldn't help but get a little excited.
......
In the end, François and Annan left first, while Jacques and the others took Sandra to visit the Occult Academy on the outskirts of the Misty Mountains.
Jacques didn't enter the academy, but looked at the place where his parents had lived for a while, and then left Sandrola behind, and the four of them left.
The four of them then traveled through the Northern Regions and Saxony, through the Desert of Death, and into the Kingdom of Light.
With Fat Tangerine there, the Death Desert was just an ordinary landscape, and deadly sand scorpions would not appear within five miles of them at all.
After Royol met Bai Jia and Emma, as well as Lin Jian, who worked diligently, Fat Orange decided to go to his Beastmaster Ruins to get the Orb of Wishing Power.
This trip was even accompanied by Bai Jia, who hoped to be able to comprehend the opportunity to break through the god level by visiting the ruins of the Beastmaster of Fat Orange.
The ruins of Fat Orange are not far from Royol, and the entrance is in a tidal cave by the sea, which only emerges from the sea for a short period of time each day.
This is indeed a node with abundant source energy, no wonder Fat Orange chose this place to build his own ruins, and the ruins can be supported by the surrounding source energy.
After recovering his god-level strength, Fat Tangerine took the Wish Power Bead again, only to realize how much energy he had wasted in the middle of the Wish Power Bead before himself. If you take the time to absorb it slowly, slowly convert the power of faith into energy, treat each faith carefully, realize their wishes, give them, and then get feedback, back and forth, at least double the energy you got before, and all you pay is time. 軒軒書
So Fat Tachibana decided to retreat in his ruins and slowly absorb the Wish Power Beads.
Naturally, Jacques wanted to stay with him, and he could also share the energy from the ascension of the fat orange, and more importantly, Jacques also needed time and circumstances to calm down and find an opportunity for himself to become omniscient.
In the same way, Lily also needs to retreat to impact the All-Knowing, she has a more solid foundation than Jacques, precisely because she lacks an environment with abundant energy to accumulate.
Naturally, Bai Jia and Marianne couldn't stay, they had too many things to deal with, but Emma and Alyssa were still a long way from the Omniscient, so they stayed behind to cultivate together, and at the same time were responsible for traveling back and forth to Royol to prepare various necessities of life.
So Jacques, Lily, and Fat Orange went into retreat in the ruins.
......
A year passed, and in the course of the year, Fat Tangerine absorbed two Wish Power Beads, and Jacques and Lily also had their own gains.
Surprisingly, the two continents did not change much during the year.
Here in the Kingdom of Light, Bai Jia and Hei Shuo are each responsible for a piece of land, and everything is in order.
Half of the population of the Kingdom of Light has migrated to the New World, mainly on the East Coast.
Hei Shuo built another new city next to Tavaré, and relocated all the people of the kingdom of God to the new city, and the old city surrounded by broken walls became an open free port, where people of any country, any power, and any faith could trade freely as long as they paid a very low tax rate.
The existence of the free port turned the economy of the entire region, and merchants from the north and south of the New World and the empire came to visit.
The fleet of the Kingdom of Light cruised day and night to ensure the safety of the nearby seas, and no pirate dared to approach the central waters of the New World.
However, the Freeport of Tavare is not the achievement that Hei Ye is most proud of, and the analysis machine that moved from Silver Mountain to Tavare New City is his favorite.
In order to avoid the noise of his wife and newborn, he decided to go to Freeport at the invitation of the black master, but as soon as he got off the ship, he was fascinated by the analysis machine, and stayed in the workshop day and night, rejoicing in every formation deduction.
During this time, the proudest achievement of Hei Ye and Graves was that they reproduced the metal ball that originally belonged to François. At that time, he used this magical item to attack Fat Orange, but was destroyed by Fat Orange's counterattack, and Jacques collected all the pieces and gave them to Marianne to bring back to Master Black. It took Hei Ye and Graves four months to reproduce this metal ball, a magical item that can amplify the power of the Source Energy Technique by three to four times, extremely explosive, and the extra cost is very low, but the disadvantages are the long cooldown time and the cost is too high.
The northern part of the New World.
With the support of the two beast kings, the royal family acquiesced in the autonomy of the three cities, and the representatives sent to negotiate only repeatedly struggled with the amount of tribute to be paid each year.
After the three mayors put their minds at ease, they began to put more experience in the construction of the railway network and the dredging of inland waterways, and they also experienced the feeling of having money to do things.
The rebellion in the mountains of Draeno in the north and the self-reliant kingdom of the Silver Dragon were beginning to be forgotten by the people of the northern New World.
Equally happy were the southern colonies of the New World, the former Duchy of Cartile, which had also declared self-government, were also building a railway network in a big way, just as it had been in the empire eight years earlier, eager to build railroads to every town.
In contrast to the jubilation of the New World, the two principalities of Stuart and Castile were the richest coastal areas, one losing its colonies in the New World, and the other losing half of its own territory, although it still received the annual tribute income from the colonies.
Now both injured are silently licking their wounds in the hope of recovering as soon as possible.
The Duchy of Saxony, the most non-existent, still lives slowly and traditionally.
On the one hand, the legion began to assemble gunpowder weapons, and on the other hand, the ground was completely cleared, which made it difficult for the guerrilla revenge army to resupply, and had to retreat to a small coastal area along the river, otherwise it would be cut off from supplies.
At the end of a quiet year, Freeport Tavare welcomed a merchant ship from the imperial capital, and a blonde and a red-haired man disembarked with a few companions.
Soon after, two new shops appeared on the busiest street in Freeport.
The two shops are next-door neighbors, one is a tavern that closes during the day and opens at night, and the other is a Mithril shop that closes during the day and at night.
One is called "The Flower of the Heart" and the other is called "Lul and His Daughter".
