Newinn Harbour, Royal Naval College, belongs to the secluded office of the Deputy Chancellor.

On the wall hangs a bust of Her Majesty Betisia Falletis belonging to the current Queen, behind him is a huge map of the explored world, and the mahogany shelves are filled with books on geography, politics, economics, armament, literature, art, and more.

Of course, there is also a weapon rack with muskets and various sophisticated cold weapons.

Obviously, in addition to the vice president of the academy, as a crown prince, His Royal Highness Livina's daily life is also unusually fulfilling!

"Well, Lieutenant General Gustav and the Donglunzhi Company are moving very fast, and the first batch of silver ingots has already been produced in the absence of a relevant foundation in the kingdom's colonies?

Although it is only the silver mines on Island 3 that are shared equally with Sack and Atlan, this year should be enough to give the kingdom's chancellor of the exchequer a little relief.

Along with the specific course of action, a detailed battle report and a drawing of the battleship were sent?"

I didn't look at it for the first time.

Livina, who had been dealing with administrative affairs for half a day, stretched a lazy waist a little unladylikely. The tightened naval uniform outlined the perfect figure of this peak knight, but it was a pity that no one had the eyes to see the beauty of Her Royal Highness at this time.

In order to cultivate the power of the crown prince, all the information that is currently passed back to the royal capital Bekele, various documents that need to be read by the queen, and administrative decisions of the kingdom will be passed on to Livina as well.

Although these things have already been approved by the queen and the adults in the royal capital, it is just a formality to her. But she also needs to give advice, because a lot of teachers are still waiting to approve her "homework".

Now that there is no hurry to carry out the transfer of power, it is obvious that having enough experience is the path that any good heir must take!

Moreover, the situation of Phaletis is different from that of Syrius, although the queen balances the interests of all parties well, and controls the army and the most high-end supernatural power with absolute power, but it is still far from the totalitarianism of Sylius.

Because the economic base determines the superstructure!

The steam industry, which is now flourishing in China as a model for the mainland, cannot tolerate a political system in which power is excessively concentrated and vainly attempts to control and possess everything.

When most people lose their initiative, their avenues, and even their personal wealth, the country will only be dead, especially in business and industry.

So after going through several adaptive reforms.

It is not so much the supreme queen who rules the country, but a large group of interest groups that share the same ideals and goals as the queen, except that Her Majesty controls the vast majority of the armed forces and guards the country.

And Livina's performance is of course stared at by many pairs of eyes, even though she is now the only legitimate heir.

But if the performance is really substandard, it even harms the interests of the ruling class because of lack of ability. Then the rights that belong to her part will inevitably be weakened by the members of the upper parliament, led by the great nobles, who also adopt the hereditary system.

This is a game of politics, unless you want to be a tyrant who rules by force, which has nothing to do with whose fist is bigger.

"Hey, sometimes I really envy my eldest sister."

Livina looked out the window at the rejuvenating scenery of the campus, patted her cheek gently, withdrew her inexplicable divergent thoughts, and picked up the drawing.

Just looked at the signature, and a smile appeared on her face:

"Worthy of my guardian knight!

The battle for Potosi was impressive.

He was the first to get the information about the silver mines, and blocked the main supply lines of Syrius while hiding himself, and finally completed the battle to break the island of Qian.

Syrius, who took advantage of the time difference to give the overall strength an advantage, also had to compromise and cede a part of the interests that belonged to Potosí.

And it didn't take long for him to be successfully promoted to an official wizard, which is really impressive.

Let me think about what should I reward him with in addition to the military service?

Higher privileges in the 'Violet Eye'?Sea Treasures?Sorcery Materials?Mystical Knowledge?or"

Because of Aivan's identity as a guardian knight, of course, his combat exploits are also part of Livina, and his recent performance has given her a hard face.

Even the finished silver ingots belonging to Silver Mine No. 3 have not yet been shipped, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has received a lot of praise in recent times.

Even the "Rose Sword Saint", who has never paid much attention to mundane affairs, has rarely expressed his concern for him, and it is obvious that he is already "Jane in the Emperor's Heart".

Of course, she was in a good mood when she saw Aven's name.

Then I looked at the content on the drawings, the structure of the ship, the principle of transformation, the firepower configuration of the whole ship, and the performance parameters for a long time before I sighed with a complicated face:

"Phew! Evan didn't study under the headmaster of Princeton, and he didn't know whose loss was. ”

The invention of weapons can only be of maximum value in the hands of large forces at the level of the state, and besides, the renovation plan was completed by Evan and the ship engineer named Walkley Jeffrey, so there is no need to continue to hide it.

simply dedicated to his lord, he is still very relieved of Livina's style, at least he will not let himself suffer.

Suddenly.

Knock! Knock!

"Come in. ”

Linda, an assistant in military uniform, pushed the door open and placed a pot of freshly brewed black tea and a letter from the "Violet Eye" on Levina's desk.

"Your Highness, rest for a while, there is also a personal letter of yours here. ”

Putting down the drawings of the heavy cruiser, he picked up the letterhead that had been sealed by the receiver of the Witchcraft Society, and pulled out a piece of paper, which was as thin as a cicada's wing, with some surprise.

The slender eyebrows are slightly raised:

"Huh, an urgent letter from the 'Spirit Courier', and the one who sent it turned out to be Aven?

Not long after he was officially promoted, he already had his own Spirit Messenger?"

Unfolded the letter and glanced at it roughly, and couldn't help but let out a chuckle:

"This is the Overlord Disqualification Plan against Syrius? Hehe, our Captain Aven is not small!"

When she saw the title, Livina knew what the letter was about, and she didn't pay much attention to it at first, after all, with her experience and experience at this time, she couldn't imagine how to completely pull the seemingly invincible Sylius off the altar.

Not even among the top echelons of the kingdom could come up with a feasible plan, and Levina didn't think that a young man who was now only seventeen years old could have such a far-sighted vision.

If someone else writes this kind of thing, even if it is one of those young nobles who claim to be elite in the royal capital, I am afraid that she will throw it directly into the trash without even having the interest to glance at it.

But even if it's just for the name Aiwen, it's worth taking the time to read this letter, and by the way, write a reply letter to give him some guidance, what is the situation on the mainland, what is strategy, and what is the game of great powers, otherwise I'm sorry for the theoretical knowledge I learned.

Even if I don't think the plan in the letter is feasible, this guy's original intention of giving advice to the kingdom must be resolutely maintained!

However.

Although the paper is thin, the amount of information in it is really a lot, and there is not a single false emptiness, or any inexplicable slogan. A large number of theoretical analyses and specific solutions, and a clear list of various data.

Just by glancing at the text, Livina was already completely trapped.

Subsequently, after reading it again and again, the expression on his face is constantly changing.

Wow

It wasn't until the pot of tea sent by Linda was almost cold that she suddenly stood up and almost knocked down the chair behind her:

"Linda, quick, let's go to Headmaster Princeton, I need to use his power to talk to His Majesty instantly!"

Before she walked out of the room with the wind, she didn't forget to pick up the blueprint of the battleship.

If this "Overlord Disqualification Plan" can be implemented smoothly, perhaps this new type of warship that abandons the battle of the Grand Fleet and is specially born to break the engagement will have a very different meaning for the kingdom!

Time flies.

A week later.

Santa Cruz, the capital of the king of Cyrius, whose streets and alleys still have the festive atmosphere of the previous engagement ceremony, ushered in a battleship with fiery red sails.

After escaping from the "maelstrom", the "Red Maple" did not dare to cross the "Black Sea Eye" along the established course, but yawed north into the Trident Current, and returned home with the help of its extraordinary ability and current.

Under normal circumstances, the shortest route of the Grand Fleet through the "Eye of the Black Sea" would take more than two months, and the voyage from the "Eye of the Black Sea" would take more than a month, and the "Red Maple" would take only eight days.

But they did not bring good news to the high-level executives of Sylius, who had been waiting for a long time.

Or rather, it is more appropriate to bring bad news.

The Great Fleet, laden with countless gold and silver treasures, was annihilated by the invincible "Maelstrom" Karybdis in the "Eye of the Black Sea"!

Shocked by this news, from Philip II to the high-level of the kingdom, they no longer cared about pursuing this natural disaster or a man-made disaster, and even more so concerned about the huge loss that was enough to make people vomit blood.

Because the more pressing problem is in front of them.

The collapse of the Jumbo Fleet also means that the military spending of this country for almost the next whole year has been wasted!

And we must do everything we can to make up for it, otherwise the chain reaction will be triggered by this, which no one dares to imagine.

And where will such an astronomical deficit be compensated?

"Or an overseas colony"

Meanwhile.

The aftermath of the earthquake has spread far away.

Even under a strong blockade, the impact of this news is no less than that of a financial tsunami in the modern world.

From the Peacock Islands in the east to the New World in the west, across the eastern and western borders of the world that mankind has discovered, many people smell a faint breath of anxiety in the air, from every Sylius garrison base that is like the Great Wall of the Sea around them
