A few days later.

Her Majesty the Queen's personal presiding over the promotion of military ranks was both solemn and uneventful.

Today, when the kingdom is relying more and more on the navy, the promotion of every rear admiral is not a trivial matter.

In the rank of the Navy, Commodore is somewhat similar to the fourth-class ships in the battleship sequence as a compromise plan, and the significance of the rear admiral is already equivalent to the main third-class ships in the battle line.

Outsiders can't understand it, but they all know it inside the kingdom's power system.

As a result, many big people who are in the royal capital have come to watch the ceremony in person, wanting to see the "naval supernova" whose name has only been heard of in recent years.

Although Evan is a little too young, if he were placed in the normal five-year enrollment of the Royal Naval College, the age of eighteen is only just aboard the warship, starting from the warrant officer candidate.

However, the strong strength and irrefutable merits make it impossible for the stubborn old-fashioned school to find the slightest fault.

Coupled with the legend of the "Destroyer of the Country", which was created by Crown Prince Levina and gradually spread among the royal capital Bekele, propagating the heroic deeds of Evan personally killing the King of Dahomey (falsely rumored, in fact, only the queen), the guests of slightly lower status did not dare to speak loudly in front of him.

More than halfway through the banquet to commend some of the meritorious personnel of the "Battle of Benin", Queen Isabella has already left the venue under the escort of female officers and guardian knights.

Aven, who had changed from brigadier general to major general with the rank of brigadier general on his shoulder, held a wine glass and dealt with the enthusiastic spectators with ease.

"General Gariot, congratulations!"

Some people simply want to expand their network and connect with the potential stocks in this navy.

"Hello General, I'm the president of the Claudias Pharmacy Chamber of Commerce, I wonder if the General has time?

We are very interested in your new drug 'Penicillin' for the Coalition Army, and if you are planning to expand it to the civilian sector, I believe that Claudius is the best choice for you." ”

Someone took a fancy to the huge business opportunity in Aiwen.

"Your Excellency, I am the niece of Earl Hogan, Chancellor of the Exchequer, do you have the privilege of dancing with you?"

Ahem, there are also people who are obviously greedy for the body of His Excellency Major General.

But they were all accompanied by Evan to the banquet, and Olivia, who had been on guard, was all "driven away". Although not a lady in the traditional sense, Olivia, who was born in a noble family, is far more comfortable with such occasions than Aven.

“......”

Although even the Golden Lion may not be liked by everyone.

But when Ai Wen was in the limelight, the people who dared to come up and touch the moldy head were either stupid or stupid, but everyone in the group of guys in the royal capital had big aristocrats, big businessmen, idealists, and careerists... But there are no fools and fools.

While the atmosphere is very harmonious, it also allows Ai Wen to greatly expand his contacts in the political arena of the royal capital. I'm not going to follow the path of a government official, but I don't know when I can use this kind of thing.

For example, in an exchange with several officials of the Kingdom's diplomatic department, he learned about it.

Although it has not been officially announced to the public.

However, the armistice between Tulip and Cyrius was officially signed before the wedding of Philip II and the coronation of the emperor, and on the premise of returning the detained people and some of the goods, the current situation in the southern continent was generally maintained.

They also told Aven a gossip that he didn't know was true.

"In the matter of being crowned Emperor of the Holy Lothar Empire, Philip II seems to have the support of some of the 'Eternal Flame' clergy. ”

"Is there such a thing? The most radical and fanatical priests on the continent have taken the wrong medicine?"

The official who provided the grapevine shrugged:

"The specifics are unknown, but it's true that Hirius has a good show next month. They sent a diplomatic note in advance, inviting the tulips to the ceremony, and we will know when the foreign secretary returns. ”

Others have interjected, and the crowd of people eating melons is not afraid of big things when they see the excitement:

"It would be great if there was a split within the church, or a break between the royal family and the church. ”

"Hahaha, yes, that's right. ”

Although even outsiders know that this matter is not over, this beautiful victory still showed the entire civilized world the power of tulips after all? Even the merchants of the alliance can clearly feel the subtle transformation of the attitude of the trading partner when they are trading abroad.

These diplomats are even more aware of this.

It is also one of the intuitive manifestations of the promotion of tulips' international status.

Now it's up to Philip II after his wedding scheduled for late February? Will there be any new moves? Or at that world-renowned and influential wedding, where will the national games of the world's largest power turn?

......

The core area of the royal capital? A luxury villa that originally belonged to the royal family has just changed owners.

Rewarded by the Queen? It has become Evan and Olivia's new home in the royal capital.

Although the villa is nowhere near as grand as the Orange Leaf Castle, it was built by skilled royal craftsmen? Sophisticated and elegant. Marble sculptures, fountains, well-tended gardens, royal furniture... It is already a collection of works of art in itself.

Maybe the little nobles in the countryside are willing to exchange their ancestral territories.

Although it hasn't been long since the two of them moved in, how much has changed here? Strange plants of all kinds crawl all over the corner in an orderly manner.

The hanging wind chimes that replace the whale oil lamps in each room, the giant vines used to watch the home nursing home, the wizard flytrap, the Brot flower that releases hypnotic gases and is not very lethal... And three or five of them have initial enlightenment wisdom? A bird of prey that can record everything it sees.

For a senior wizard of the "Living Chemistry School", this is not a piece of cake, choosing the right seeds to be born with witchcraft, and not advocating all wild druids who conform to nature, it is the job of wizards to transform and use nature.

Have been adrift at sea since joining the army? Even the port of Hatrafa as a base camp exists mainly as a military fortress? It's the first time that Evan has managed his own house with all his heart.

Not only will the king have to live in the future, but Uncle Geer's family may also have to be received by the queen because of their performance in the war, and they will be able to live here.

"Hey, mistress of the house. ”

"You scream again. ”

"The mistress of the house!"

"Hey, hey, hey..."

Standing in the doorway before the snow had melted, the girl leaned on Aven and laughed happily.

The brass sign at the door originally read "Galiot Residence"? Just now Ai Wen waved his hand, and the handwriting on it automatically wriggled and changed? It has become "Galiot and Amor Mansion", which means similar to the woman's name written on the real estate deed.

And it's clearly outside? Obviously, he is telling the entire school-age girls who have ideas that this high-quality golden beetle son-in-law is already famous.

When you accompanied Evan to the banquet before? The group of well-born warblers around Evan had already made Olivia's new life vigilant.

After living in this house? There are also many famous ladies who visit for some reason? The idea of fighting is known to passers-by.

For Olivia, Aven's attitude is much more than the house itself. Practical actions are far more effective than a hundred love words, at least to prevent him from going to the sea... The possibility of Aquaman.

The two of them walked hand in hand to the martial arts arena attached to the courtyard, where the alchemy workshop spread out from the toy box was standing.

During this time, the restoration work of the toy soldiers has been completely completed long ago, and the combat effectiveness has been completely restored.

The thunder-attribute transcendent weapon that had been in the spirit realm for several days, relying on the equipment in the alchemy workshop as an aid, had finally been completely formed after several days of fusion.

Based on the sharp claws and sharp beak of the Thunderbird that were retained after making the [Thunderbird Robe], the spiritual materials that resemble a combination of information, energy, and rules are fused with the form of existence.

In the end, he formed the innate [Extraordinary Weapon Thunder Fang].

The finished product is a heavy hand and a half-sword, and the whole body is made of translucent dark blue bone, with layers of thundercloud-like lines on the surface.

In addition to its super high strength and excellent thunder attribute amplification, it can also summon an elemental lightning spirit "Thunderbird" with third-order strength from the spirit world.

The strength is in no way inferior to the "blood lake light".

Seeing Evan hang the new weapon around his waist, Olivia helped him tidy up his clothes and nodded in satisfaction, then asked:

"The matter of the royal capital is over, and only the task of liaising with the 'Angry Waves Church' remains, when will we leave for the land of the south wind?"

"Haven't we already made a plan for the cultivation of organic gemstones?

I can't wait to try out the upper wizard's biomodulation lab. ”

......

Black Sea "eye of the storm", underwater city Heraclian.

The storm howled for years on the sea, but there was peace and tranquility beneath the water.

Raging Waves Church Headquarters.

"Your Excellency, Lord Huggins brought back a large number of extraordinary ships from somewhere some time ago, and the goddess personally took action to transform them into a true legendary battleship, the Sea Soul.

Our priests thought they would be able to launch a counterattack against the sea monsters with strong reinforcements.

However, in several recent battles with the "Mother of Sea Monsters", Lord Huggins has refused to allow the legendary ship to fight on the grounds that the crew is not ready. You see..."

When he gave Even the [Tranquility Talisman] half a year ago, Fisher was only a second-order patriarch among the priests, but at this time, he had already changed into a bishop's robe.

This terrifying speed of promotion was something that transcendents of other paths would not dare to ask for.

At this time, the new bishop's face was cold, the wisdom of the goddess was enlightened, and the experience of more than a year in this position made Fisher no longer the ordinary whaler he once was.

"Don't worry about him for the time being, under the command of the pseudo-god who stole the throne, I can't wait to knock his bones and suck his marrow at this time.

Huggins couldn't have been with the Brotherhood of the Deep anymore.

The 'lawless' are different from us believers after all!"

After such a long time, Fisher has already understood that there is no such thing as "loyalty" in the heart of this Black Sea Pirate King, and the source of the core power of the "lawless" is to do whatever he wants, even the goddess who is the source of the transcendent may not be able to restrain him.

However, as long as he naturally stood on the opposite side of the "Deep Sea Brotherhood", it would already be a huge help to the "Angry Waves Church", which was the extraordinary deterrent power of the fourth-order peak.

"The ancient tortoise Kraken... If we don't get foreign aid this time, I'm afraid it will be dangerous. ”

The priest from the Tulip Taylor Kingdom had a worried look on his face, except for the "Great Vortex" Karybdis, even if he added the "Octopus Ghost" Huggins, who did his own thing, there was still a gap between his fourth-order peak transcendence and the "Deep Sea Brotherhood".

The Kraken, the "King of the Sea Monsters", the ancient tortoise, may be his last chance.

Fisher put his left hand, which was missing his little finger, on his chest, and his face was sacred:

"It's a difficult situation, and it's time to test our faith in the Goddess.

I will leave as soon as possible to meet with the Tulip representatives, the thirst for land in the island nation is limitless, and they will definitely not be uninterested. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency, glory to the Goddess!"
