World setting
In October 1842, the Ottoman Empire collapsed under the influence of the Skull and Bones Society, and it was supposed to be a great chaos. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info But under the threat of the Ming Kingdom and the Army, the Skeleton Society had to temporarily retreat from the Ottoman Empire. The Ming army marched straight in, but then met with fierce resistance from the locals, and on the 15th of the same month, the establishment of Soviet power was proclaimed, and the speed of the Ming army was so rapid that the Ming state was in vain.
This time the fall of the Ottoman Empire is known in history as the "October Revolution".
Under international pressure, the Ming withdrew their troops from the Ottoman Empire.
On the 22nd of the same month, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was formally established. And befriended the Ming Kingdom.
In October 1856, Su Ming formally established diplomatic relations and established the "Su Ming Communist League".
In November of the following year, Gear Street in England was established
The famous Gear Street in the Empire is full of 'scientists' and 'inventors' who are not taken seriously by the Empire.
Alien to the beautiful surroundings of the Empire, the smell of motor oil and rusty metal pervades the place. But the people here are enthusiastic about it, and even if most of the people in the empire don't want to acknowledge the merits here, the people here have made indelible contributions to the empire. Speeding locomotives, yachts in the sky, strange machines that once required strange people to drive, now even ordinary people can enjoy them.
The scene of the strange man and the airship flying side by side in the sky will soon be seen.
And the residents of Gear Street, that is, the Ministry of Science and Technology, live here, as always, or unusually.
In January 1858, the spiritual leader of Gear Street in England, Jack Simon Capek, was received by the Queen.
"The technology in this world is very abnormal. ”
He said this to the young Queen.
Indeed, less than a hundred years ago, the best rifles of the time had a range of only 50 yards.
Today, the armies of various countries are equipped with pistols with more than four times the effective range, not to mention the motorboats flying in the sky, the chariots roaring through difficult terrain, the sniper rifles with a maximum range of nearly 2,000 meters, the 'missiles' that can flatten mountains, and the 'ships' that sail at a speed of 30 nautical miles in the depths of the ocean, all of which were just science fiction things a hundred years ago.
It's too unusual, and it's really unsettling.
And with this anomalous technology, the "power" that appears in the world.
They call it a "stand-in."
The Queen had Jack Simon and his wife join the Hunters' Department to investigate the matter.
And in 1868, two members of the Capek family, who had reported to the queen that the investigation had made some progress, were found dead in the laboratory.
"Soviet-Ming Communist League": The full name is "Soviet-Ming Communist League", which is a private mercenary industry funded by the government. As a mercenary, he travels back and forth between various countries, and is a militia that can be relied upon. Although the Ming Kingdom was still a monarchy, its king established a multi-factional inner court. The king of the Ming Kingdom allowed the existence of the Su-Ming Communist League in order to use it as a restraining force.
Thanks to the powerful armies of the Soviet Union and the Ming Kingdom, this alliance became an obstacle to the United States, which wanted to intervene in the affairs of the country, and was the main opponent of the Skull and Bones.
Skull and Bones Society: The monogram of the "Skull and Bones Society" is a skull emblem with the words "322" written in Arabic numerals. The group embraced the legend that when the Greek orator Debossthenes died in 322 BC, the goddess of eloquence ascended to heaven. This society thus called itself the Eloquence Club and believed that in 1832 the goddess of eloquence had returned. "322" thus became the code of this organization.
The Skull and Bones Society was founded by William Russell, a student at Yale University.
At any time, in any field, the president can call on members to do whatever they think is the right thing to do.
The Skull and Bones Society is not affiliated with any country, but it is a great search for 'mysterious' forces in the international community and interferes in the affairs of other countries, which is deeply hated by many countries.
In essence, they are no different from terrorists.
Gear Street & Science & Technology Department:
Although it is a street, it is a vast area that occupies nearly half of the capital of the empire, and it really cannot be called a street. Simply because it grew out of what started as a small street. It's full of explosions and experiments. Gear Street profoundly changed the way of life of the people of the Empire, and also made the Empire leap to the top of the world - thanks to the combat power rationed by Gear Street to ordinary people, which made the Empire come to an unprecedented period of strength. The Queen was very appreciative of the people here, but most people, including the Imperial Councillors, were not very interested in the people of Gear Street.
Maybe it's because these guys are no different from crazy people who are shouting about conquering the world.
Hunter Division: A special unit made up of some of the Strangers and Gear Street's combat experimenters. The Hunters Department is responsible for special events that the Imperial Police can't handle, and it's also responsible for trying out some new works from some of the most well-known people in Gear Street, and of course, after confirming that it's not dangerous, the subjects are naturally 'special people that the police can't handle'.
And in England, their main enemy is the Skull and Bones Society, which are trying to infiltrate the Queen's territory.
The Hunters' sphere of influence does not extend beyond the United Kingdom, and the Hunters will only appear in the United Kingdom itself, except for special joint operations.
Red-haired "Travelers", "Gingers": It is rumored that there is such a group of people in the world. They all have red hair, and they usually have multiple nationalities and have a variety of identities for the convenience of travel.
And what they have in common is that they are travelers.
Traveling to various parts of the world, it seems to be aimless, and it seems to be for some special purpose.
I don't know if I feel that such a person has become a symbol.
To see where tourism is developed, just pay attention to the number of red-haired people there.
The Redhead Club is a purely traveling club made up of vampires.
As early as hundreds of years ago, the war between vampires and humans in the world began, and one day it ended abruptly.
It's as if the vampires have disappeared from the world.
In fact, they have established their own kingdom by keeping their names invisible.
Xichang: If the purpose of the establishment of the "Dongchang" in the state of explanation is to monitor the behavior of officials, which is hated by officials, then Xichang is the secret service of the Ming Dynasty.
Most of the members of the West Factory are "capable people" who are recruited from the private sector.
Some of them, after unified training, are responsible for dealing with institutions within the country. Xichang directly obeyed the orders of the Ming monarch and was not subject to the control of any other institutions and individuals.
In a sense, it is equivalent to the monarch's Praetorian Guard.
However, the West Factory can only obey the orders of the emperor like the Hunter Department, and is responsible for dealing with the yamen in the country and the things that cannot be handled by the catcher.
Chivalry: Traveling in the countries surrounding the Ming Kingdom, warriors in fancy costumes can be seen everywhere. Usually these people don't carry guns.
Some of the chivalrous men of the Ming Kingdom were "co-opted" into the West Factory, while some of them began to travel in the countries surrounding the Ming Kingdom.
There are few knights that can be seen in Europe.
They are all free and loose people, and even the language barrier does not affect their journey.
Penglai: A coalition of "non-humans". Based on a small island in the western Pacific Ocean, few people know about their existence except for secret organizations such as the West Factory and the Skull and Bones Society.
Vampires, monsters, werewolves. Anything you can think of exists here.
And the West Factory and the Skull and Bones Society once secretly joined forces to find the location of "Penglai", and finally after losing dozens of people, they failed.
It is said that science and technology, which has revolutionized the world, have penetrated from Penglai to various countries.
Therefore, the geographically closest power, the Ming State has a terrifying army.
Magic: A legendary being. To this day, even in the ancient Orient, there are still materials similar to the type of 'magic'.
Depending on the country and culture, 'magic' has different names, and the 'magic' of different countries has one thing in common - it has been almost forgotten. And there are only a few hundred people in the world who know magic.
DIO: A book with the letters "DIO" in gilt font on the title. The book handed over to Dior by the previous "DIO", and the person who holds the book is the current "DIO". It is a magical creation that will be stored in the human body, and it can be taken out and recorded at any time, and just one possession will give the holder the power of the "DIO" of the past recorded in the book.
