Chapter 66: The Queen
Kingdom of Angela.
With the Council of the Seven Kings about to be held in the capital of Angela, preparations are in full swing from the royal palace to the market.
Of course, while preparing for the Council of the Seven Kings, Angela also frequently sent troops to the borders of the rival kingdoms to show its strong force and confirm the supremacy of the Kingdom of Angela among the seven kingdoms of humanity east of the Misty Forest.
Among the seven kingdoms of mankind, the hostile kingdoms of Angela include the Kingdom of Eternal Winter, the Kingdom of Timberwolves, and the Kingdom of Falcons.
As for the three kingdoms of Sunset City, Falling Star City, and Finlay, Sunset City is west of the Angela border and has to resist the invasion of Warcraft, so the attitude towards Sunset City should be relaxed, but there are certain sanctions in terms of commerce, which has caused Sunset City to not develop.
The status of Falling Star City is somewhat special, because the founder of the Kingdom of Falling Star City was the sister of the founder of the Kingdom of Angela, so the two countries lived in peace in the past, but as Angela grew stronger, Falling Star City finally surrendered to Angela, however, the two countries signed a relatively equal joint military agreement.
As for the Finlay Kingdom, it is almost a vassal of the Angela Kingdom and a big granary of the Angela Kingdom, the military strength of the Finlay Kingdom is almost non-existent, and the formed army only has a 3,000-strong king's guard to protect the royal capital.
Therefore, since the arrival of late spring, Angela's major legions have also frequently dispatched to attack the three rival kingdoms, in order to dominate the Council of the Seven Kings.
Of course, in terms of intelligence, the Angela Kingdom is also quite good, just after the matter of the Wind Castle Legion urging the Sunset City royal family for military salaries was exposed, the spies planted in the Sunset City Kingdom had already sent the information to Angela.
Queen Kslear III was reviewing some important documents in the government hall, and when she saw the information of Sunset City, a smile appeared on her mature and beautiful face, and she said to herself: "Although there is a proton, Sunset City has caused problems within the Quinn royal family due to the problem of the throne, and the military salary of the Wind Castle Legion cannot be paid, it seems that my strategy is right, since I can't destroy Sunset City, then I have to drag down the Quinn royal family economically." ”
The queen groaned slightly, and then said: "Tell the former prime minister, send a letter to Quinn, and say that if the new king of Sunset City inherits the throne and sends a proton to come, I can borrow five million gold knives from Sunset City in the name of Queen Angela to help her tide over the difficulties." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Not far away, the silent attendant immediately said yes and left the hall.
"However, Quinn actually wants to pass the throne to the seventh prince Mars, which is kind of interesting!" the queen whispered to herself.
At this moment, she thought of Mars, who had been trembling in front of her for many years, which made her feel very comfortable, and she dropped the quill pen casually, stood up, and ordered: "This king is happy today, and he will feast the ministers at night, and you will wait for the order!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The attendants immediately bowed and respectfully exited the hall, and the queen no longer reviewed the papers, but admired a treasure sent by Fallen Star City, Blood Coral.
This is a treasure from the deep sea, one meter high and two meters wide, like a tree without leaves in winter, but the whole body is blood-red, as if blood is injected into it, but it is extremely hard, and it is extremely smooth under the touch, which is extremely magical.
The queen chuckled lightly and said in a low voice: "Sally from Falling Star City actually sent a royal treasure from Falling Star City, which is a bit interesting!"
For this blood coral, the queen still knows some stories, when Ksliel I ascended the throne, he mentioned that he should let Falling Star City pay tribute to this blood coral as his defending gift, but was rejected by the queen of the Falling Star City's generation, and the military power of Falling Star City was also very strong at that time, and he was not afraid of Angela at all.
Therefore, Kslear I regretted not seeing Blood Coral for the rest of his life.
Later, Kslier II, that is, after her mother inherited the throne, also wanted Blood Coral, but Blood Coral was the treasure of the royal family of Falling Star City, and her mother was a kind person, so she did not embarrass the declining Falling Star City.
And when she inherited the throne, she thought about asking for Blood Coral, but faced with a war with the Eternal Winter Royal Family, and signed a joint military agreement with the Royal Family of Falling Star City, so she held back.
But the situation of Falling Star City is getting worse day by day, and the economy is not as good as a year, and finally Falling Star City surrenders and sends Proton to Angela, she naturally will not let go of asking Sally about Blood Coral.
Unexpectedly, less than a year after Sally left Angela, she sent her blood coral.
Blood coral, a treasure, no one knows what it does, but since it was delivered, it has been placed in this queen's exclusive government hall.
The queen can admire blood coral at any time.
"What is the purpose of this blood-colored thing?" said the Queen, who was eager to find out what was so special about this treasure.
Is it just that Her Majesty Grandmother likes it?
......
For many students of the Ten Thousand Courts, learning those boring basics during the preparatory period is the most distressing time.
These basic knowledge not only takes a lot of time to memorize, but also must be mastered thoroughly, because if you choose to pursue research in the future, it is a valuable asset and a stepping stone to the field of research.
Of course, even when choosing support and combat, this knowledge has a certain usefulness.
As a result, Mars, a prep student, lived a very fulfilling day, absorbing knowledge like a giant leech, and then drawing inferences from others, which deepened his understanding of magic.
Originally, he thought that magic was like a life skill, such as a carpenter has the skill of building a wooden house, a stonemason has the skill of making stone tools, and so on.
And he just has the survival skill of magic.
However, after this period of study, especially the basic courses of the Ten Thousand Courts, he understood that magic is not only a survival skill, but a vehicle to study all things, trace the mysteries of life, and a way to higher life or to evolve a country to a higher civilization.
That's right, after this period of study, a word was born in Mars's mind, civilization.
There is no suspense that the civilization of the Barlov world is much higher than that of the seven kingdoms of mankind in the outside world.
And the Ten Thousand Courts are the core of the civilization of the Barlov world, and the source of power to promote the progress of the entire Barov world civilization.
Mars was in the middle of it, empathized, although he didn't know much, but the words that were unfamiliar to him in the basic class, those material terms that sounded awkward, shocked him, but he had unprecedented motivation, he completely liked it, this is the academic atmosphere he pursued!
