Chapter 19 The Unification of the Continent
"This ......" Watching all this happen in the blink of an eye, Dino didn't know how to describe the horror in his heart at the moment, in order to be able to capture all the lands of Punk in the shortest possible time this time, the empire specially invited four Saint King-level powerhouses from the Holy See.
O Holy King!
The entire continent is standing at the pinnacle of existence, Dino also has great confidence in this operation, but the result made his mouth bitter, the two holy kings and powerhouses, before they even had time to exert their might, were blown up in the Tanggu fortress, and the other two, but the woman who appeared inexplicably, casually played the instrument, and died very simply, Dino felt that maybe dying in the previous fortress was more dignified for them.
Looking at the eyes of the two women, Dino straightened his waist, even if he died, as an imperial general, he would die with dignity, as for resistance, Dino had already given up, and the person who could kill the two Saint King powerhouses so casually would not even be able to resist at all.
"Are you willing to surrender?" Xiao Zhao looked at Dino and said indifferently.
Dino looked at Xiao Zhao and felt a little ridiculous, how ironic was the dignified military god of the Ole Empire, surrendering to a territory that had not yet been formally established? But to the mouth, in the end did not come out, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves has sounded in the distance, Rong Ma has been a lifetime, he can naturally hear that it is the sound of the army, people are considered tigers and tigers, the other party is obviously ready for a counterattack, now Tanggukou has been blown up, the heavy troops gathered by the empire in the northeast have disappeared in less than a minute, and in the northeast, there are no troops to resist the invasion of the other party.
Shook his head. Dino quietly closed his eyes, waiting for the end of his life.
"It's a pity." Look at Dino's attitude. Apparently having already supprung up a will to die, Xiao Zhao shook his head. The country is ruined, there will always be many heroic people, such people, even if they are enemies, should not be humiliated, with a wave of his hand, a cold air surged, and in an instant, Dino was frozen into an ice sculpture.
Xu Da led the army and soon arrived. After looking at the ice sculpture of Dino, he sighed, and after saying goodbye to Xiao Zhao and the Golden Swallow, he led the army to quickly pass through Tanggukou and rush towards the interior of the Ole Empire like a flood that burst the embankment.
The year 10372 of the Guangming calendar, also known as the last year of the Guangming Dynasty in later history, was the year of the end of an era.
The era of the Holy See of Light began from that moment with the fall of the Pope, the Archbishop, the Holy Maiden of Light, the Inquisitors, the forty-three Holy Kings, and hundreds of Holy Master-level masters. The curtain gradually came to an end, and it was very prosperous, and the Bright Holy See, which had been in charge of the mainland for nearly 10,000 years, was in the following month's campaign. The backbone was completely wiped out.
After Xu Da broke through the Holy Capital and destroyed the Temple of Light, from the Temple of Light. A large amount of incriminating evidence has been searched, revealing the Holy See of Light, which has always been believed in by hundreds of people. It turned out to be the largest slave trading group on the mainland, and almost all of the slave trade was supported by the Church of Light. At this point, the prestige of the Church of Light in the mainland has fallen to its lowest point, and a large number of believers have been lost, even some staunch Bright believers, under the slogan shouted by almost everyone on the mainland, can only hide themselves.
And with the Holy See of Light has the same fate, there are also four families, this time, the four families united with the Holy See of Light to persecute Zhuo Ao, but instead of being calculated by Zhuo Ao, an explosion not only blew up the foundation of the Holy See of Light, but also ruined the future of the four families.
After Zhuo Ao eliminated the masters of the four major families, he immediately asked Zhao Yun to wave his army north to attack the Bantu Empire.
In the following year, although the remnants of the four major families united with the Church of Light to resist the invasion of Zhuo Ao, but without the Holy Emperor powerhouse, in the face of the four angels of the Holy Emperor realm sent by Zhuo Ao, the prestige of the strong fell one after another, and finally the four major families had no choice but to give up the interests of the continent and flee to the sea with their clansmen. The elites all fell in this battle, and the Bright Sect, except for the Pope who was exiled to the Great Summoning Space by Zhuo Ao, all the powerhouses above the Sanctuary were exterminated, and the cultists were dispersed, and since then, it has been strictly forbidden to spread the Bright Faith on the mainland.
It's not that Zhuo Ao opposes religion, in fact, although the power of faith for Zhuo Ao can speed up his practice in a short period of time, but these beliefs are often mixed with the private messages of many believers, and over time, it will affect Zhuo Ao's state of mind.
Therefore, Zhuo Ao actually hopes that someone can share the power of these beliefs for himself, but everything has a premise, that is, the premise of faith, must be loyal to the country, under this premise, no matter what you believe, Zhuo Ao is holding a supportive attitude, but if you cross this bottom line, then you can only say sorry.
The biggest problem with the Church of Light is that its background is too strong, and the Lord God of Light has always indirectly controlled this material plane through faith, which is absolutely not allowed by Zhuo Ao, so his faith must be eradicated.
At the same time, Zhuo Ao through Shellaire's relationship, and several other elf kings in the Death Mountain Range had a meeting, in the territory under their control, the elves and humans enjoy equal status, not to discriminate and buy and sell elves, and at the same time, as long as it belongs to their own territory, permanently cancel the slave trade, and at the same time, under the premise of allegiance to the empire, Zhuo Ao will never interfere with the faith of the elves, and can even let the elves spread the faith among humans.
Not only elves, but also orcs, dwarves, and sea tribes can enter the territory controlled by Zhuo Ao to obtain equal social status, and they can also spread their own beliefs, but the premise of everything is that each race must recognize Zhuo Ao's dominance and join the empire established by Zhuo Ao.
Although there is a certain sense of identity with Zhuo Ao, but the continuous persecution of human beings for thousands of years cannot be eliminated because of Zhuo Ao's words, for Zhuo Ao's request, the kings of all ethnic groups did not directly refuse, after all, for them, the living environment of the ethnic group has been extremely bad, and they need Zhuo Ao's help.
In the end, the two sides reached an agreement, although they could not integrate all the races into the human race at once, but they would send a group of elites to help Zhuo Ao in the battle, so as to obtain the qualification to enter the town of Punk.
Punk Town, or Punk City, has always been inhabited by various ethnic groups in the past hundreds of years, and now the scale of Punk City is dozens of times larger than in the past, and there are already a large number of foreign races living there, and now send more people in, there will be no problems in life.
As for what happened next, it depended on whether Zhuo Ao could guarantee that the slave trade would be eradicated under his rule, as Zhuo Ao said.
Next, Zhuo Ao spent two years to completely occupy the two major empires of the Ole Empire and the Bantu Empire, and ascended the throne on September 5 of the third year, officially establishing the Shenwu Empire.
In the Ninth Five-Year Plan and even the number of respects, this year, Zhuo Ao abandoned the original bright calendar on the mainland, and turned to the Shenwu era to time, with the first year of Shenwu as the first year to start the time, and at the same time obtained detailed information from the hands of various ethnic groups, as far as possible to restore the history, the time before the first year of Shenwu, with the first year of Shenwu as the time unit, convened scholars of all ethnic groups to compile history.
At the same time, Zhuo Ao, who annexed the Ole Empire and the Bantu Empire in one fell swoop, did not continue to wage war abroad, but began to stabilize the country, and a large number of policies for the benefit of the people and magical technology items were continuously introduced into the people, and at the same time, a special magic research institute was established to specialize in the study of magic technology, while T-X's underground base stopped exporting technology to the outside world, and was specifically responsible for absorbing the research results of the major magic research institutes and bringing forth the new.
In the following ten years, although the Shenwu Empire did not expand externally, its national strength was thriving, and the elves, beasts, dwarves, and sea tribes successively chose to join the Shenwu Empire.
With the addition of the Sea Clan, Zhuo Ao's sailors began to form, and established a water capital in the offshore, as the first water city of the Sea Clan, and at the same time, after the successful trial of the magic ship from the Institute of Magical Science, it was quickly used in the navy, with the approval of Zhuo Ao, after ten years of recuperation, the army of the Shenwu Empire began to show its hideous minions to the mainland, and in less than five years, the other two empires were wiped out, and more than 20 principalities were included in the territory of the Shenwu Empire.
After several troops, with the support of advanced scientific and technological weapons, the army of the Shenwu Empire was like a bamboo, and it took another ten years to incorporate the entire continent into the territory of the Shenwu Empire, which was the first time since the era of the gods that the continent was truly unified.
Ten years later, the former Punk Town has now been established by the Shenwu Emperor Zhuo Ao with supreme supernatural powers to become a city suspended in the sky, and it is everyone's dream to be able to enter the imperial capital to live on this continent.
In the depths of the imperial capital, in the golden palace, the fire unicorn lazily lay on the edge of the pond in the garden, enjoying the sunlight, and the fire monkey lay on the fire unicorn's head, trying to arouse this big sloth to play with him.
Suddenly, the ears of the fire qilin, who was sleeping with his eyes closed, moved, and a pair of eyes opened, looking at the depths of the palace suspiciously.
"Boom~"
A monstrous momentum erupted from the deepest part of the complex, and in the sky above the palace, countless golden mist gradually converged into a golden auspicious cloud, and among the auspicious clouds, there was a faint real dragon swimming.
In the palace, countless palace guards and palace maids looked at this scene in surprise, feeling the majestic but not strong momentum in the momentum, presumably someone broke through, but I don't know who it is this time?
As the core of the entire continent, in this palace, even the palace maids and guards have a good cultivation, cultivation breakthrough, in this palace, but this momentum is not strong, and it is not too high a level, in the palace, there are only a few people who can feel the feeling of the Tao contained in this faint momentum, which ordinary people can't feel at all, in this palace, only one person can achieve this step.
