Lesson 55 Alliance

The carriage walked slowly along the road in the setting sun, occasionally rolling over the pebbles in the road, causing a slight tremor.

Inside the carriage, Green was holding a copy of "A Brief History of the Alliance: From the Dark Ages to the New Age" from Roosevelt, while Master Tony on the side closed his eyes, as if the changes around him had nothing to do with him.

When he arrived in this world, Green had no knowledge of the world and no time to understand it. So, now that I have time, in order to be able to play the garbage game of reality, I quickly replenish the world view.

Turning the page, Green couldn't help but glance at Tony, then closed the book and said to the old magician: "Senior Tony, there is something I've always been curious about, I don't know what you think. ”

"What's the matter?" Tony opened his eyes and smiled at Green, "I'd be happy to answer your questions, if I knew." ”

Green pursed his lips and nodded, "I've always had this question: How do you think the alliance fell apart?" ”

Most of the current history books in the Loren world can only be traced back to the era of Clash of Kings before the [Hundred Years of Dark Age] brought by the Emperor of the Eternal Night, and even the historical records of the Clash of Kings have been blurred.

The history of the Ten Arcane Dynasties, or even the older history of the Elven Magic Empire, which is believed to be a legend, has no systematic account at all, and one can only speculate on some clues in ancient ruins and ancient records.

As for the Arcane Empire fighting against the gods?

Hehe......

And the detailed historical record, presumably from the time of the Union, began.

During the fight against the Emperor of the Eternal Night, the survivors of the Order of the Eternal Night campaign formed a short-lived alliance to fight against the Emperor of the Night, known as the Alliance of the Dawn.

In the books, the alliance is quite highly evaluated, believing that if it were not for the existence of the alliance, the world would have been ruined under the blade of the emperor.

During the existence of the Alliance, the various races came together to fight against the army of the undead. At that time, there were many heroes, and there was a role like the Red Lotus Brave who saved the world.

However, it was such an alliance that fell apart after the Red Lotus Warrior defeated the Eternal Night Emperor, after only four hundred years.

This is why there are various countries now, otherwise the entire Loren world would still be under the management of the Alliance.

"The statement in the book is that the Helena incident led to the collapse of the alliance, but this author has brought it over in a few words, and I am very curious!" Green opened the book, pointed to one of the lines and read, "'At the end of the Alliance, the Helena incident opened the prelude to the collapse of the Alliance, the four continents became independent, and the Alliance existed in name only, until the establishment of the Toronto Empire, the Alliance finally disappeared into the river of history......"

The Helena incident is probably the second largest event in the history of the alliance, the first major event is that the Red Lotus Brave defeated the Emperor of the Eternal Night, and the second event should be the turn of this major event that destroyed the alliance.

Then Green closed the book and spread his hands, for there was no content behind it.

"Hehe, Mr. Green was so focused on studying magic before, he didn't even know about this kind of historical event...... "Tony said with a smile, "This is something that will be talked about by teachers in elementary school......"

Green shrugged his shoulders and looked helpless: "When I was very young, I followed that bad old man, and I stayed in the real room all day long, and I read some magic books, and I couldn't find this kind of thing on the shelf......"

"Oh hehe...... "Master Tony laughed dumbly, "Mr. Green and your teacher have a good relationship......

"......" Green pursed his lips with a disgusted expression, "who has a good relationship with him!" ”

"Hehe......" Tony smiled, but in the end he couldn't see anything in Grina, so he sorted out his thoughts and said, "Actually, this is the way it is......"

After the Red Lotus Warrior slashed down the Emperor of the Eternal Night and allowed the sun of dawn to rise again, it took another hundred years to clear the remnants of the undead legions on the rest of the continents, allowing people to move back to their homeland and thrive in the world of Loren.

Time flew by, and the Red Lotus Brave finally relapsed due to an old injury and left the alliance at the age of two hundred and forty-six.

In the years that followed, the alliance changed more and more.

First of all, under the constitution of the alliance, the more qualified young people will have access to more resources, and the amount of such resources is very huge, which can cultivate more talents in the presence of foreign enemies, which is quite right.

But without the threat of the Emperor of the Eternal Night and the undead, people who are good at infighting began to gradually control these resources, and gradually formed one big family after another.

At that time, Helena was known as the first beauty in the world of Loren, and was loved by many people and had countless suitors, but she was forcibly married by the heir of a big family at that time.

Under another constitution of the alliance, it was stipulated that everyone was equal, and the heir of the large family forcibly married Helena, against the woman's will, and Helena tried in vain to fight through the alliance charter to get rid of the threat of the heir.

As the incident grew, the majesty of the Alliance's charter was threatened, and the relationship between the Alliance's management and the family deteriorated, and finally the family declared its independence from the Alliance and destroyed the teleportation array from the Eastern Continent to the Northern Continent.

Due to the very poor navigation technology at that time (after all, it was originally a continent), and the [Dark Age] let most of the technology be destroyed by the blade of the undead, so as long as they destroyed the teleportation array, and then grasped the control of the sea at sea, the alliance would have nothing to do with them.

Sure enough, although the alliance sent an expeditionary force, it was damaged by a storm, and was defeated by the independent family at sea, and returned to the Eastern Continent, where the headquarters is located.

When other ambitious families saw it, they followed suit, destroying the large teleportation magic array between the continents, declaring independence, and the powerful feudal empire, and the weaker feudal kingdom or principality.

All of a sudden, the alliance fell apart, and to paraphrase a well-known phrase, it exploded in an instant!

It was not until the headquarters of the Alliance, the Eastern Continent, also abandoned the alliance system and established the Eastern Continent's powerhouse, the Toronto Empire, that the history of the alliance came to an end.

Then the countries of the four continents were divided and merged, which continues to this day.

Over the years, the connection between the continents has been restored, people's navigation skills have been ******, and the large teleportation magic array that had been destroyed back then has been restored.

Of course, there are strange things in this world everywhere, and the Southern Continent is one of them.

For example, the alliance used to have the only alliance gold coin, and now the other continents use the same alliance gold coin style of the year, with the head of the Red Lotus Warrior on it, only the southern continent in order to reflect the determination of the anti-alliance, each country in the whole continent will use its own minted gold coin.

Although the Southern Continent also uses alliance gold coins now, Green said that the black merchants he met before were really black, and when he first exchanged gold coins, he had never even seen alliance-style gold coins.

In addition, the area of the Southern Continent is very small, so small that it is less than one-tenth of the area of the second-smallest Western Continent, and the national strength of the countries on the Western Continent is also pitifully low, and no country can have the economic strength to rebuild and maintain a large teleportation magic array, so the only way to reach the Southern Continent is by boat.

This is also the reason why everyone refused when Green wanted to be able to use space magic to complete the task alone.

Who believes it?!

"So, in essence, the collapse of the alliance is an inevitable result, Helena's matter is just the fuse, the fundamental reason is the system of the alliance......" Tony said eloquently to Green, "The alliance system is a wartime system, a qiē serves the war, under the threat of survival, everyone can cooperate sincerely, but once the powerful external threat is lost, it will inevitably collapse, and it is a miracle that the alliance can survive for so many years after defeating the Emperor of the Eternal Night!" ”

"Then why not restructure?" Green blinked, "Someone must have thought of this, right?" So why not change that? ”

"Hehe, in fact, even if the system is restructured, it will be difficult to continue......" Tony smiled, touched his beard, and looked like an old god was there, "Just talking about faith, do you mean that the orcs who lived with humans at that time were willing to believe in the beast god?" Or the Templar gods? Or the dark gods? ”

"Uh......"

"Tradition, always a strange thing, a concept, is also difficult to change. From the moment the alliance was born, it was destined to perish with the Emperor of the Eternal Night......" Tony concluded by a sentence.

"Well, Tony-senpai, you convinced me, very incisive point of view......" Green nodded, looking thoughtful, and then exclaimed sincerely, "You are so knowledgeable! ”

Tony waved his hand and said, "Haha, I'm just more interested in history, if you have any questions about history, you can also come and ask me, I still know a lot about this period of history......"

"Of course! Actually, I still have a few questions......"

As soon as Green was about to ask a question, a knight outside the car stepped forward and knocked on the door, and then said to the two people in the car: "Lord Tony, Lord Green, it's getting late, why don't we camp nearby?" ”

Only then did Green realize that the world outside the car had darkened, and he had a pleasant discussion with Tony, an erudite historian, that time had passed so much before he knew it.

Hearing the knight's words, Tony stretched out the window to take a look, then nodded: "Then rest here!" ”

The knight nodded, stopping the convoy, and the knights began to expertly prepare for the night.

"Let's go down and walk! I'm going to rust in this car! Green saw a small lake outside and headed Tony on.

"Huh! All right! Tony readily agreed.

"Speaking of which, isn't that guy in the carriage going to come down? You won't even have dinner with us, will you? Is it that you won't get off until your destination? Green suddenly remembered what the man in the novel had done to keep the mystery alive, and asked.

Tony glanced at the other carriage behind him and said helplessly, "It seems very likely......"

"And what about his urgency?"
