Chapter 728: Two Focuses

The battle that took place in the North Sea attracted the attention of many people, because the victory or defeat between the two sides was related to the final belonging of this sea area in the North Sea, and it was decided whether the new king ruled this sea area, or the old king defended her royal power.

In addition, it is not only the forces of this part of the North Sea that are involved in this battle, but also those forces around them, some of whom have supported a large number of supplies for their allies, and some of them have even gone directly to the battlefield and led the army to support.

The pirates in the English Channel who died in person were the ones who had lost many years ago, and their power was shrinking day by day, and their territory was shrinking every year, but they did not have the courage and strength to fight against the Baltic Empire, and the battle had completely broken their backbones and made it impossible to stand up straight.

So these pirates in the English Channel set their sights on their neighbors, the North Sea waters in the north, and they made contact with some pirates in the North Sea, and carried out a certain degree of cooperation, hoping to survive hard in the cracks next to the Baltic Empire by holding together.

This is the route they have found with great difficulty, and they have finally regrouped through the North Sea Pirate line, through the operation of the Celtic to Scandinavian maritime trade, so there is no way they can give up the North Sea Pirate line.

In addition to the English pirates, another force joined the battle, and that was the United Kingdom in Scandinavia, and after taking over the navy of the original empire, Gohm focused on the situation in the North Sea.

Despite the country's problems, the unstable situation, and the occasional rebellion, the Attila Empire also stirred up disputes on the one hand, trying to plunder supplies through small-scale engagements and obtain more supplies to survive the cold and harsh winter of Scandinavia.

But Gohm decided to send his troops into the fight, joining Francis Drake's side, knowing that the rebels were more or less supported by the Baltic Empire.

Without the support of the Baltic Empire behind him, it would be hard for him to believe that those guys could force Francis Drake into such a difficult situation, but the [Demon King of the Storm] really has the power to control the storm and can occupy an absolute home advantage on the sea battlefield.

Even Gomm had never really experienced a catastrophe at sea, but just through the imagination of other people's dictations, book records, etc., he could imagine the horror of Francis Drake.

Not to mention, in the rumors, she still holds the proof of the overlord of the North Sea in her hands, which is something that only gods can grasp a long time ago, and it is the proof of the overlord of the sea area.

And, more than just a simple nominal proof, the person who is rumored to have this thing will be able to obtain the favor of that sea, and the existence of the illegitimate child of Lady Luck will have unparalleled fortune.

Based on this judgment, Gohm is unwilling to let the North Sea fall into the control of the Baltic Empire, if even the North Sea is included in the territory of the Baltic Empire, then the Baltic Sea will really become the inland sea of the Baltic Empire, and Scandinavia will be completely surrounded by the Baltic Empire.

At that point, Scandinavia's connection with the outside world will depend entirely on the Baltic Empire, and even if you buy a piece of paper from outside, you will have to pay a tax to the Baltic Empire.

Well, although the economy of the United Kingdom is actually deeply affected by the Baltic Empire, it is heavily dependent on the blood transfusion of the other side to maintain the normal operation of its finances.

In addition to these two powers, the North Sea was bordered by Scotland and England in the Celtic Isles, but neither of these places had a long tradition of valuing the sea.

The various races living in it can only operate inshore and do some simple fishing work, so they don't care who controls the North Sea, because in the short term, the change of regime in the North Sea will not be able to change their lives.

The most profound impact on this war was actually the Baltic Empire, whether they personally participated in the battle, how much support they had for those pirates, and to what extent, were the focus of attention.

The battle in the Ural Mountains has received little attention, because with the arrival of autumn, the temperature drops, the intensity of the war is also decreasing, the Baltic Empire has not sent more reinforcements to support, and the coalition forces in the Ural Mountains have not continued to besiege the camp.

Autumn and winter are very critical periods for a tribe, and only when autumn is well prepared can their winter be relatively peaceful.

After confirming that the Baltic Empire is not making much of a move, and that the level of threat to them is not as expected, they will not spend much time on it.

After all, the tribes living in the Ural Mountains are short-sighted, and they are very conservative, following the traditions that have lasted for thousands of years, and nothing will change.

However, the auction that was being held in Jutland in the Baltic Empire was held as normal, and this auction would last for a whole week, and it had been held for six days now, with the last day left.

The first six days of auction are all more everyday things, and only on the last day will the most precious things be on display, and not all people can resist their inner impulses in the face of such treasures.

It was dealt with by the Imperial Intelligence Forces alone, and there were no less than 100 people, including three legendary warriors, one of whom managed to escape from Hassan's hands.

These legends are legends that do not belong to any forces, because they are alone and have no drag, so they are not afraid that the retribution of the Baltic Empire will affect their country and power.

In order to prevent this, or worse, from happening, the city of Jutland was put on the highest alert, and all the troops were assembled to patrol the city in their own way.

All the casters have entered their respective magic towers, and all the services of the magic towers have been opened, now is not the time to save energy, if this auction will change because of this little bit of energy, it will really be taking the sesame seeds and losing the watermelon.

A large number of sea tribes have gathered around the harbor, and these are all loyal to Semiramis armies, with these sea tribe armies defending in the sea, which can completely cut off the possibility of the enemy attacking from the sea.

The premise is that there are enemies who are willing to foolishly provoke the mighty Baltic Empire for the sake of this auction.

The final auction took place in the square in front of the castle in the center of Jutland, but it was heavily defended by the casters.

High in the sky, those dragons are constantly patrolling to ensure the safety of this airspace, even a small bird is forbidden to enter, these dragons actually want to participate in the auction, because they want to get those precious treasures in the auction, and they want to get these treasures without paying any price.

But, despite the longing in their hearts, they resisted it, knowing that the woman was presiding over the auction, and if they chose to betray, the best they could have been reduced to a test object on the caster's test table.

Thinking of this, the dragons shivered, and their eyes flashed with fear, no matter who entered the caster's laboratory and witnessed their experiments, they could still be calm and at ease, not to mention that they were still of the same kind of physiology as them.

Looking at those people who are tied to the experimental table, wailing as experimental subjects, no matter who they are, they will feel fear from the bottom of their hearts, after all, those who see such a scene are afraid that they will become experimental subjects on the experimental table.

It was in this thick swing that the grandest and most precious auction began, and the entire hall was densely packed with people, all of whom had a semi-enclosed compartment to ensure that they could not watch each other.

Although there are many people, they are much less than a few days ago, because today's auction is full of the most precious things, at least in the main plane.

However, it would never be so precious as to involve a god, and the Baltic Empire would never risk offending a god in order to gain such a small benefit.

The whole room was very silent, and everyone who came to the auction was silenced in that small cubicle, and they could not do anything other than conduct the auction.

Each compartment has a coffee table and sofa with some simple food and drinks on it, as well as a small toilet for guests' convenience.

There is a device on the coffee table that can be used to view the status of the auction items, and through this device, you can bid on the auction items, and it looks like a small TV that can be operated in a certain way.

If you have been to the place of trading and participated in the auctions there, then you will definitely not be unfamiliar with these arrangements of the Baltic Empire, which is completely simplified and simplified.

The auction began as scheduled, and a young woman in a black dress appeared on the video screen, with a strange ornament in her ear and a sweet smile on her face.

The woman's voice was heard clearly in every compartment, in everyone's ears, as she introduced the first item, an axe suitable for a legendary warrior.

It doesn't seem to be very precious, as if every of the more famous Legends has such a weapon, but in essence, more Legends have ordinary weapons in their hands, which are not very good for them, and sometimes put their battles in a bad position.

When this weapon first appeared, there was a scramble, and the legends of the Northland liked to use the axe as a weapon, and every second, someone was raising the price, but the final transaction price was not high, because the people who were in demand for this weapon were not relatively wealthy.

After the first product was quickly completed, the appearance of the second product completely aroused people's scramble, which is a magical wooden barrel that can produce one bucket of water per day.

Perhaps in inland places where there is no shortage of water, such a thing would seem very unnecessary, but at sea, on islands, in some arid places where there is no water source, this thing can be compared to an artifact.

If you are in the desert and have this thing, you can easily control a tribe of hundreds of people and become the leader of that tribe, because all people in that environment can only rely on such things to obtain water and survive.

The second item succeeded in attracting the attention of the owners of merchant ships or chieftains of a tribe who were richer than the previous legends and were willing to spend a lot of money on it.

The auction of more than a dozen items was also very successful, and all of them sold more than the value of the item itself, and the atmosphere of the auction began to become lively.

Atmosphere is contagious, it's like that on the battlefield, and it's the same here, plus the girl who is auctioning, and some proper guidance in words.

The appearance of the twentieth product completely triggered the atmosphere of the whole venue, as if a stone was thrown from high in the sky on the calm lake, and the water waves kept reverberating.

They were three merchant ships that had just been in service for less than half a year, and in an era when maritime trade had been opened up, merchant ships represented a cornucopia of profits that could bring in a steady stream of revenue.

Moreover, this is not an ordinary merchant ship, it was made by the Baltic Empire, it can be equipped with large weapons, it can provide the sea tribe in and out of the cabin, and the special sails can still maintain a certain speed when the wind is against the wind, and ordinary pirates have nothing to do with this kind of ship.

This kind of merchant ship is a commodity that the Baltic Empire is completely closed to the outside world, and the people outside have no way to get it at all, and even if they do get it, they will not dare to use it, they will be afraid of the blow from the Baltic Empire.

But now this released product is different, they can use money to get this cash cow and cornucopia, and they don't need to worry about retribution from the Baltic Empire.

This thing is obvious, it can appear in this auction, it is the Baltic Empire that takes it out for auction, they don't have to think about something deeper, they just need to know that this thing must be taken.

It's like a volcano is about to erupt, and even people from outside who can't join the auction can feel the atmosphere.
