Victory!

All the previous for the big win!

The five free trade city-states of Braavos, Rollas, Norvers, Kohor, and Valantis, as well as the monster city of Mataris, and Meereen, Yuankai, and Astapo in Slave Bay, sent an army of six or seven hundred thousand, and also contacted the Dothraki.

Defeated by the guns, magic, swords, and dragon flames of the Mill army!

Looking at the tens of thousands of captives, the inhabitants of Mill City cheered to the sky.

The prisoners of war were arranged, returned to the Doge's Palace, a grand dinner was ready, and everyone was enjoying the joy of victory.

Possess a dragon and master light and magic.

In the victory of the war, Arthur did not find it difficult, and what really gave him a headache was control, governance, and reform.

After the party.

Naturally, in the bedroom, the madness that makes Arthur feel bored.

I don't feel it, numb movement, pretend to be happy.

He was actually thinking about how to take over Rees and Pantos, who had lost their army and had been breached by the city, whether to go north to take Braavos first, or to take Valantis south first......

Loss of coalition forces.

Braavos, who has an iron vault, still has the strength to fight.

It shouldn't be that easy to win.

But......

Braavos's Aquaman tried to send a navy to attack Mill, but due to the existence of the Iron Fleet, their navy was wiped out without accident, and the warships were captured by the Iron Islands pirates.

If the land and sea are flanked.

It will definitely reduce the difficulty of taking Braavos.

As for Valantis, because of the existence of the Church of Lahlo, they can help in the siege, and it is not difficult to take it and take it over.

But......

He didn't want to use the people of the Lahlo church.

After a night of madness.

The bored Arthur quietly left the bedroom and immediately rushed into his official business.

While he was busy training talents, reforming the land of strife, developing territory, taking over and expanding outward, and worrying about Angela's situation, the Lahlo church in Mill was also secretly moving.

The Church of the Light, which had not been formally established, was blocked.

There were not many priest apprentices in the first place, but they were snatched away by the Lahlo Church!

There are only about 300 priests and apprentices in the Church of the Light, of which more than 100 are adult Westeros, Mills, and Telos, and the rest are orphans who have lost their parents.

Because of universal education.

The orphans adopted by the Holy Light Church have enlightened their minds, and they know very well that everything they have now is Arthur, although they are not yet loyal, but they have established the correct three views, and they all know how to repay their kindness.

Children are like this, and adults in the Church of Light are no worse either.

Even if you have seen the divine power of the Lord of Light.

Knowing that becoming a priest and monk in the Church of Rahlo can be powerful, none of them have ever wavered in their faith in the Light.

Because of the Children of Light.

The Church of Lahlo did not dare to go too far with the people of the Church of the Light, but just locked them up and then preached the greatness of the true God Lahlo.

Arthur, who heard the news, immediately rushed back from the land of strife to ask for someone.

In this regard, Bennero released him without the slightest embarrassment, but also took the opportunity to propose that the belief of Essos only belongs to the supreme true god Rahlo!

Alonsos and the others can train transcendents who wield the power of the Light.

But the Holy Light Church should not exist, at least change the name of the church, it can become the prince's private transcendent organization, and it must not be preached in any form!

The Church of Lachlo is powerful.

This time the Church of the Holy Light will be suddenly blocked, and all the apprentices will be taken away, and no one can guarantee what will happen next time.

He was a soldier, a tax collector, a businessman.

The bent and resilient Alonthos understood that mortals could not be enemies of the gods, and that they had to back down in this matter.

"The Church of the Light will be renamed the Church of the Light. ”

"We also do not proselytize in any form to compete for the faith. ”

Taken by the power of the Lord of Light, the helpless Arthur and Alonsos chose to bow their heads.

In this regard, Bennero did not embarrass the prince, and hurriedly sent more priests and monks to serve him, and even ordered the Warriors of the Hand of the Holy Fire to overthrow the nobles of Valantis and control the city of Valantis, as well as the nobles, wealthy merchants, slave owners, and slave merchants in the city.

You don't need Arthur to send troops, you just need to send someone to take over.

One hand turnip, the other hand stick.

Benneiro had a good time.

However, compared to their success in dealing with the Church of the Light, the mission in Westeros was still greatly hindered by the Church of the Seven.

Moreover, in Mill and the Land of Dissension, there is another Church of the Drowned God with the protection of the gods and a tough attitude, and they have separated their faith.

For Telosi and the Stone Steps Islands, there is no way to plug in.

In order to deal with the Church of the Seven and spread the faith in Westeros, Beneiro chose to avoid conflict with the Church of the Drowned God and temporarily abandon the sea and coastal areas.

The church is fighting for faith in a frenzy.

Mill and the Land of Discord never ceased to grow and grow.

"Your Highness, we have developed a steam engine!"

Compared with the expansion of the army, the cultivation of talents, the construction of places, with the help of magic, breakthroughs have also been made in scientific research, and doctors and bachelors have finally succeeded in building a steam engine!

"Take me there!"

Hearing the news, the busy Arthur immediately put the problems of the Church of Light behind him.

A sealed boiler that boils water to produce high-pressure steam has been successfully built!

Using wood and coal as a heat source, the steam expands, which can push the rubber that is hard to find, and the work of making a plug is done!

"That's right, it's the steam engine!"

"Immediately divide some people to make railways according to this drawing, leave some people to develop various uses of steam engines, and the rest of me will start research on trains and other things!"

In ecstasy, he drew the drawings of the railway, and Arthur immediately arranged for the people to create the era of the railway.

The railway is simple.

Just lay it according to the drawings.

With the help of magical magic, Arthur's guidance, doctors and bachelors quickly solved a series of problems such as the condenser of the steam engine, the external insulation, the condenser with the cylinder walls separated, the slip of the plug, the moving gears, the connecting rod mechanism, the governor, the throttle valve, the pressure gauge, and so on.

A high-voltage model for trains was then designed.

The epoch-making large-scale transportation was born in the half-year busyness of everyone day and night!

There are steel mills to manufacture.

Tens of thousands of captives and workers contributed.

With the completion of the laying of the railway.

The monsters made of steel screamed and drove on the railway, so that the first experiment was tried and succeeded, without many accidents!

With a strong push, Mill is completely connected to the Land of Dissension!

However.

Sent people to take over Rees and Pantos, let the Iron Islands blockade Braavos, ordered the Randolph Tali army to go to Valantis, and when Arthur happily used the railroad to expand outward, Bennero of the Church of Lachlo also secretly sent the Hand of the Holy Fire to Westeros.

While Ryan, Varian, Robb, Edmu, and Hightower were busy digesting the prisoners of war.

The Order of the Hand of the Flame has launched a surprise attack on the Starry Sanctuary in Old Town!

Slaughter hundreds of Cult of the Seven monks!

The Hightowers are furious, but Melisandre suddenly appears, and even though the old man has mastered magic, he is still very afraid of the Red God Cult, and even more afraid of the Lord of Light, and does not dare to conflict easily.

After a moment's hesitation, the Starry Sanctuary had turned into a sea of fire.

Losing its southern base and hundreds of monks, the Church of the Seven Gods without the protection of the True God was defeated in front of the Church of Rahlo, and the only transcendent was defeated with two punches and four hands, and then was chased and slaughtered by the Red God Priests, Monks, and the Sacred Hand Warrior Order.

There is no need for Robert and Ryan to support them.

The Church of La Herlo carried out a large-scale mission directly in Westeros.

"These guys are so arrogant!"

The behavior of the Red God Cult no longer takes the Westeros royal family and nobles into account.

Robert, Ryan, Varian, Robb Stark, Edmure Tully, Ellalia Sander, Layton Hightower, and Deacon Tully, who took over the High Court and Hornland, were all furious.

"They have the strength!"

Seen the power of Rahlo, the Lord of Light.

The grumpy Robert was uncharacteristically calm in the Imperial Council.

"If the Seven had not fallen the Six in the Battle of Winter, the Church of the Seven might have become the same as the Church of Rahlo. ”

"We are too weak to blame. ”

Ryan frowned: "But Father, are we not going to do anything, and let the Church of Lahlo persecute the Seven Monks and grow in Westeros?"

"Can you deal with the Lord of Light?"

Robert rolled his eyes, asked angrily, and then muttered, "In the face of the gods, we who are just mortals can't do anything, at most talk to them about the clear division between theocracy and clerical power, let those who belong to the gods belong to God, let those who belong to the church return to the church, and what belongs to us belongs to us!"

"Is that all there is to it?"

Ryan and Varian, who participated in the Imperial Council, were very unwilling, but those who still had reason also knew that mortals could not be enemies of powerful gods!

......

Back to Mill's side.

There is the eight-clawed spider Varys, the intelligence director.

Arthur and Daenerys soon learn that the violent defeat of the Church of the Seven by the Church of Lachlo has brought the battle of faith in Westeros to an end.

With the advent of railways and trains, steam engines for textile, mining, and other uses were also studied.

The Land of Discord has successfully entered the Industrial Age!

Looking at the rise of technology, Malvin believes that it is not spring to stand alone.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, I have a very important proposal. ”

"Tell me about it. ”

Arthur liked to build infrastructure, but he didn't like to waste valuable human resources, and he would unify the whole of Essos in the future, so he did not build a palace in Mill so far, and only expanded the Governor's Palace of Mill as a temporary administrative center.

In the conference room of the administrative center, the queen and the princess, who heard the words, suddenly stopped reading the documents.

Malwyn: "Schools have been built in Mill, Telosi, and the Lands of Discord to train students from all walks of life to make the kingdom stronger. ”

"But... I found... We are also missing an extremely important school ......"

"A magic school that trains spellcasters!"

"School of Magic!"

Hearing this, Arthur's eyes immediately lit up: "That's right, we need a magic school to train spellcasters!"

Research powerful muskets, cannons, epoch-making steam engines, and trains that connect Mill, Discord, and Pantos.

Dr. Ryan and other ministers from the school city were a little unhappy when they heard this.

Having developed technology with their own hands, they believe that technology is the future of mankind, and they are even more reluctant to magic than before.

Tyrion, Jorah, Jon, and the others take an objective view of the matter.

They felt that it was good to have the steam engine and the train studied successfully with the help of magicians, and to establish a magic school to train people like spellcasters.

Daenerys, as the Queen, agrees with this.

However, she thought about it carefully and asked, "Scholar Marvin, you will definitely be very busy after establishing the magic school, can you take care of the government affairs here?"

"This... Maybe you can't take care of it......" The old magician frowned and groaned for a moment, then looked at the old wizard next to him: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, don't forget Ambrosius, his magic attainments are not inferior to mine. ”

"No, my ability to teach students is too poor. ”

Ambrosius shook his head, he could certify magic with Arthur and Gianna, but he didn't have much talent for theorizing and teaching students.

Otherwise, when the two of them were in Westeros, the increase in magic would not be so slow.

Gianna: "I agree, Mr. Ambrosius is really not fit to be a teacher.

Arthur thought for a moment and suggested, "Master Malwey, if we just set up a junior spellcaster academy, I think those four of your students could be the deans. ”

"And you can name the principal and take care of the school affairs once in a while. ”

"What about this suggestion?"

Hearing this, Malwin suddenly looked at the four students who had been helping him.

Among the four of them, two were born in the school city, and the two were gifted witches, although the two male students were in the school city, and were rejected by Dr. Ryan and others, who were disgusted with the demon law, but they were also masters of a wealth of knowledge and passed the assessment to get the Valyrian necklace.

The four of them have been following him for a few years, and they can be regarded as knowledgeable, and they also have their own understanding of magic.

"Godric, Salazar, Rowena, Helga, do you think you are up to the task of teaching your students?"

Hear what the teacher said.

Godric, Salazar, Rowena, and Helga looked at each other, and then said in unison firmly, "Yes!"

I had seen the strength of several people in the Battle of Winter, and everyone agreed with Malwin's decision.

Arthur: "So... Where do you want to build the school?"

Thinking of the prince's second five-year plan, Marvin asked, "Your Highness is sure to rebuild the ruined homeland of Royna, clear the stone people of the Broken Collar, and establish a capital in the middle of the Lorne River in the heart of the free trade city-state?"

"Yes. Arthur nodded: "After that, we will expand to the Great Grass Sea and Slave Bay, and we will try to rebuild the Valyrian Fortress of Freedom." ”

Malvin said, "So... I want to build the Academy of Magic in Dagger Lake. ”

"The most central and nice place in the free trade city-state. ”

Dr. Ryan raised an eyebrow, a sneer on his face, "But you want to establish an academy in the ruins of A. Noi, the forest of Kohor, or a golden field of the wilderness?"

"And then constantly being attacked by river pirates?"

"I will establish an academy in the center of Dagger Hu. Ignoring the ridicule of his old rival, Malvin said calmly: "As for the river pirates of the Lorne and Gene rivers, I believe that Godric, Salazar, Rowena, and Helga have enough strength to solve them. ”

"However, I hope that Your Majesty and Your Highness will allow the booty they have seized from the river pirates to be used to establish the Academy of Magic and recruit students. ”

Ryan raised his eyebrows: "Don't need Your Majesty and His Highness to send troops?"

"Of course you do!"

Ambrosius couldn't help but speak: "Godric, Salazar, Rowena, Helga, there are only four of them. ”

"What about the materials and manpower needed to establish the Academy?" Dr. Ryan asked, adding, "Mill is not close to Dagger Lake. ”

Daenerys doesn't treat her fellow academics badly.

Moreover, having seen the important role of spellcasters in war, she understands that power is the foundation of rule, and she agrees to train spellcasters without hesitation.

"We will give our full support to the establishment of the Academy of Magic!"

Moreover.

At the beginning of the industrial age, the economy of Mill and the Land of Discord took off, and the financial expenditure easily supported the construction of the railway network, and it was only necessary to establish a mere magical academy.

They can afford to pay for it!

Holding the light and magic in his hands.

Power and status never made Arthur forget that he was a transcendent being.

The path of the Holy Light can only be explored alone*|groping, although the improvement of strength is faster than everyone else, but this is the first opportunity to awaken the power, in fact, it does not surpass others too much.

But.

The way of magic is different.

With Ambrosius, Malwyn, Gianna, LeBlanc, Antonio and other pioneers walking together, they can recognize and support each other.

The ascension of Arthur's magical realm has caught up with the Holy Light!

The reason for the urgent improvement of his strength is because the King of Red God Light, who has bad intentions towards him, does not want any accidents, he can only desperately become stronger, strong enough to control his own destiny!

The light is strong.

The power of the Holy Light can be cultivated, and there are side effects that worry Arthur.

As he formed the Source of Light within his body, he even felt that he would completely deform into a creature of Light and become no longer human......

So.

Magic is the best option!

Moreover.

Science can explain the origin of all things, and magic can grasp the root of all things through knowledge and power!

Whether it's becoming a god.

Or transcend God.

Spellcasters can grow to!

The establishment of a magic academy is important, and Arthur is willing to spare no effort to help, and he also plans to recruit Antonio to build a mage tower dedicated to magic research!

......

Westeros' side.

Killing the hundreds of monks of the Seven Gods in the Church of the Stars, the Church of the Seven Gods no longer has many missionaries, and Melisandre of the royal family and nobility knows.

To that end, she entered King's Landing.

In the throne room, Robert sat on the iron throne with a gloomy expression, Ryan, Varian, and Barristan stood in front of the throne, and the great lords of Westeros and the nobles who were ranked in high numbers all responded to the emperor's call to discuss the matter.

"I never knew the Red God Cult was so cruel. ”

"I have allowed you to preach in Westeros, but why are you attacking Old Town and slaughtering thousands of innocent believers?"

Listening to the emperor's deep question, Melisandre said expressionlessly, "The war was provoked by the Church of the Seven Gods first. ”

"I don't care how you fight!" Robert, who heard this, roared arrogantly, "You Lahlo church must give me a satisfactory explanation!"

"Otherwise, our entire empire will be the enemy!"

"That's right. ”

The Great Lord and many of the nobles who deserved the rank chimed in.

While their belief in the Seven Gods is not very devout, the Church of Lahlo can raid Old Town, slaughter in the Church of the Stars, and powerful samurai orders can raid the Riverlands, the North, the Vale of Arryn, Riverlands, Stormlands, Dorne, High Court, and even the Imperial Realm.

Then slaughter Riverrun, Winterfell, Eagle's Nest, or the Red Keep!

The Sacred Fire Hand Warrior Regiment composed of transcendents who have mastered divine arts, and the transcendents in the north are just shapeshifters who control animals, and the mages of the old town can't stop it, how can ordinary knights and soldiers stop it?

Look at the nobles of Westeros who are afraid of the strength of the church.

Melisandre smiled, "Ladies and gentlemen, we slaughtered the monks of the Seven Gods only to facilitate their mission, and the Order of the Warriors of the Hand of the Holy Fire will soon return to Essos. ”

"Returning to Essos soon?"

Robert suddenly became angry, glared at her and asked, "If you kill someone in my empire and leave, do you not exist as my emperor?"

Berry Dondelion and Sandor Clegane, who were standing behind the red-robed woman, hurriedly knelt down.

"Nope. Melisandre said lightly: "How dare I be disrespectful to Your Majesty." ”

Such an attitude.

Such an answer.

All the nobles present felt that the red-robed woman was full of contempt for everyone, and Robert on the Iron Throne did not feel her respect for him.

The grumpy warrior emperor can bear it so much?

However.

Robert stood up angrily, and the fire in the throne room suddenly rose, then turned into a fiery serpent and flew around Melisandre.

"Your Majesty, please look at my tricks. ”

As the red-robed woman said, the fire snake bloomed and bloomed red flowers, causing the lords and nobles in the throne hall to retreat.

"The flame is beautiful, but it is dangerous, and ordinary people have no way to extinguish it, but to wait for it to burn out. ”

With great power, he is one of the strongest transcendent warriors in Westeros, and as the emperor of great achievements, he was threatened by the red-robed woman who showed his strength, and the angry Robert's face was flushed, and his fists were clenched.

However.

Not only Robert, but also Ryan, Varian, Barristan, and Old Francis, who were standing in front of the Iron Throne, all felt an invisible coercion.

Having participated in the Battle of Winter, they have experienced this familiar coercion, and it is the divine power of the Lord of Light!

The lords and nobles standing around the red-robed woman were also affected by the divine power, and they all broke out in a cold sweat, and their faces were pale.

"Who said that?"

At this moment, a crisp and beautiful female voice sounded, and Aishara walked in through the door of the hall.

After learning magic from the Towering Tower, she didn't perform brilliantly in the Battle of Winter, and at this moment she unleashed the powerful aura of all her previous actions.

The powerful mana condensed invisibly, directly impacting Melisandre with the help of the Lord of Light's divine might.

Robert, Ryan, Varian, Barristan and others were instantly freed from coercion.

"Zheng Zheng Zheng~"

The throne hall suddenly burst into the sound of sword drawn.

Berry and Sandor, who were kneeling behind the red-robed woman, turned pale, and neither knew which side they should be on now.

"Your Majesty, and all of you present, we in the Lahlo Church have the intention of provoking war. ”

"Everything today is the will of the Lord of Light!"

Melisandre said, her brows furrowed, and she looked at the female mage who had broken through Shenwei with her mana, "It's just... The appearance of Princess Aishara was completely unexpected by me......"

...... To be continued......
