The capital is in the northern part of the Federation, thousands of kilometers away. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The carriage was already very fast under the bonus of spells, but it still walked for more than half a month, during which thieves were rampant, and from time to time there were homeless people who lost their homes due to famine and war blocking the road, but fortunately, Shiryl at the level of a great knight was in charge of cleaning up.

Anyang is not in a hurry, he has accepted too many new things these days, and it just takes some time to digest.

At the same time, there are also a lot of experiences along the way, whether it is to cultivate the mind or increase knowledge, it is a good choice.

Especially when he had a vague sense that the atmosphere in the northern part of the Federation was about to move from the 'Middle Ages' to something like the period of the steam industry and the period of bourgeois enlightenment, he was even more interested, and he would stop for a moment to observe everywhere he went.

It's a wonderful feeling of witnessing history.

The group finally arrived in the capital.

Spanning most of the Federation, the four of them were somewhat dusty, their aristocratic bearing was no longer there, and there were too many thieves, and the two reserve knights had dark red blood stains in the gaps in their armor, and they were fully armed, which led to being stopped at the gate of the capital.

"Stop checking and show out your identification!"

Dan Yu licked his dry lips and stepped forward, taking out his noble identity certificate while a guard negotiated.

"My lord, we are nobles from the Marquis of Boer in the southern part of the Federation, and we have experienced many battles along the way, now can you let us enter the capital to find a place to rest, my lord and I will be grateful to you, this is a reward."

As he spoke, he pulled out two silver coins.

"Nobles from the south!"

The guards took their identification, and unceremoniously took the two silver coins and threw one to their companions. I don't know if it was simply because he was afraid of the lack of silver coins or looked down on the southern nobles, he said in a somewhat disdainful tone, but he quickly let him go.

But You's eyes were gloomy, and he rode his horse into the city.

Shiryl followed in a carriage.

There was also a group of cavalry escorting a nobleman from afar and was stopped, also from the south, and two hot-tempered knights clashed with the city guards, apparently also because of the city guards and arrogance and contempt, and almost drew their swords.

"Damn the northern pigs!"

"The little nobleman from the south, I respect your status as a knight, but this is the capital, you'd better be restrained!"

"Damn, a group of pigs who only know pleasure, thanks to our southern knights blocking the ghostly slaves, you can rest assured, and now even a small city guard dares not to take us seriously! Do you dare to accept my challenge? ”

"Is the Federation supported by your southern side alone......

The voice gradually faded away, and An Yang became a little clearer.

The Confederation was originally made up of a few small states, but now it has almost merged with each other, leaving only the north and the south.

But the gap between the North and the South has been around for a long time, and it cannot be resolved overnight, and perhaps an all-out war is the quickest way.

Specifically, the North looked down on the people of the remote south, denouncing them as hillbillies, and the South looked down on the northerners, believing that the people of the north had lost the tradition of the Mesoyalan Federation of good knights and had been reduced to the point of only pleasure.

The two quarreled with each other and became more and more violent.

It is said that even in the front-line barracks, the knights from the north and south often clashed, but the outcome can be imagined......

From Anyang's point of view, the situation in the Federation is also interesting, with the north representing the prosperous and advanced side, and the southern part representing the backward and conservative side. One side controls the economy, the other dominates the armed forces, and a balance can barely be reached.

But he knew that balance wouldn't be long.

The north became more and more prosperous, the level of industry increased, and the knights were more focused on equipment, so they were despised by the knights of the south, while the nobles of the north were becoming more and more open-minded, actively accepting new things, and even daring to put down the power in their hands.

The south is still a remote area, and most of the lords follow ancient laws and maintain absolute control over their territories, and the knights also flatter the most primitive force, constantly refining their bodies and combat skills to reap the status of loyalty to the lord.

Anyang felt that the Federation had begun to have the necessary conditions for reform, and it also had a guarantee of survival in this troubled era.

The southern lords are responsible for defending against powerful foreign enemies, and the northern nobles are trying to develop and forge ahead, and it seems that the two sides are full of contradictions, but in fact, a clear division of labor has just been completed, even if the current federation is still not strong, but it has the capital to fight for hegemony.

The real-world Britain is the most successful example of this, leading the Industrial Revolution and building an empire on which the sun never sets.

Of course, the Federation just had a chance.

Ancient China, in the real world, also had several opportunities to enter the capitalist era and the age of discovery, but they were all unsuccessful for various reasons, and the same is true in this world.

After all, there is no room for error in this kind of earth-shaking change that will be completed in the past hundred years.

For example, the early outbreak of the conflict between the North and the South, the total defeat of the front, the financial constraints of the Federation, the encounter with a powerful foreign enemy, and even a mistake in the resolution of the Parliament, a large protest by the people at the bottom, may lead to the failure of the reform of the Federation.

Moreover, Anyang did not know the situation in other countries, nor did he know what the attitude of that group of mysterious people was.

However, as a ruler of other worlds, An Yang felt that being able to witness such an era with his own eyes, and to be able to see with his own eyes this event, whether it succeeded or failed, was enough to be recorded in the history of future generations, and it was also a great improvement to his knowledge.

The dusty carriage clanged forward, and the pedestrians around them gave in under the pressure of the two knights.

An Yang lifted the curtain and looked out the window.

Compared to the remote war-torn areas in the south, the northern cities along the way already have a somewhat prosperous feel.

The federal capital is even more prosperous, the streets are very spacious, and there are even special horse lanes, and there are special people responsible for cleaning. After walking through the old town, almost all the houses you see are built to the same specifications, and the shops on both sides are facing the street.

The Gothic-like buildings are quite tall, and girls' underwear hangs by the windows.

Especially in the center of the city, there is a street lamp at intervals on the side of the road, so it must be a long time to light up at night.

"No wonder so many nobles want to settle here."

It is undoubtedly a very different style from the south.

Occasionally, a magnificent carriage would pass by, with a slightly different style from the south, and the people in the carriage would look at them curiously. Sometimes a knight in bright armor can be seen riding by, and the sound of iron hooves is louder, and the horse is taller and larger than the southern horse.

The two reserve knights, Dan Yo and Martin, were a little distracted.

Anyang quickly lowered the curtain, these were just some new ideas for him, and there was really not much to marvel at.

Shiryl's voice came from the front of the carriage—

"Are we looking for a hotel to stay in first?"

"Hmm."

"Okay."

After about half an hour, they found a nice-looking inn with luxurious decorations.

Danyou dismounted and went to negotiate with them, but the men ignored them as soon as they heard the southern accent, until they found that the reserve knight was already showing signs of anger, and they became serious with a little fear, but they had wasted a lot of time.

The room was expensive, a full thirteen silver coins a night.

When he walked up the stairs, Dan You was still a little angry: "These northerners really don't know whether they live or die, they are just civilians, if I were in the south, I would have killed them all!" ”

An Yang smiled knowingly and did not speak.

This is true in the south, where it is thankful that civilians who have endured war for many years can afford to eat, and on the contrary, the status of the armed class has increased. Civilians anger knights, even if they are just reserve knights, it is estimated that there is only one way to die.

And although the civilians here are also afraid of knights, they are not so exaggerated, and sometimes even dare to contradict the reserve knights.

It seems that the rights of the nobility have also been weakened somewhat.

Anyang didn't know if it was just the 'special' treatment of the southern aristocracy or the whole aristocracy, but the rise in the status of the commoners was barely the beginning of a change of the times, especially if the draconian laws replaced class rule.

In particular, there is no such thing as royal power in the Federation itself.

He vaguely remembered that one of the fundamental reasons why Britain stood out was that the royal power was weakened earlier than the other kingdoms.

Although the hotel room is expensive, the environment is very well configured, better than all the hotels I stayed in along the way. Especially for Shiryl and the two reserve knights, this was probably the best room they had ever stayed in, second only to the noble's bedroom.

Anyang did not share a room with Sheryl again.

…… I'm afraid I can't help it!

The next day, they began looking for the Pierce Medical Society.

The contempt of the northerners for the southerners still caused them a lot of problems, but they soon learned that the Pierce Medical Association had changed its name to the Pierce Relief Society a few years ago, and it was in full swing all these years, and the address was just south of the capital.

"Master Ain, it's almost night......

"It's okay, it's just right in the evening."

"Yes."

Dan Yu quickly turned the horse's head.

Twenty minutes later-

"Here we are."

"Hmm."

Anyang opened the curtain and went down, only to see a building that looked a bit like a church, very tall, white walls, carved with strange reliefs, quite a solemn feeling. There is a sign in front that says Pierce Rescue Society.

As soon as he walked in, a girl quickly greeted him.

"My lord, are you here to donate?"

"Uh...... No. ”

The girl was a little disappointed, but quickly said, "Oh, in this case, who are you looking for?" ”

"I was introduced by Oliver Chaplin to His Excellency Advin Reese."

The expression on the girl's face gradually changed to stunned: "I'm sorry, may I ask Mr. Oliver Chaplin ......"

“…… He is a student of His Excellency Advin Reese. ”

The girl frowned, and immediately said, "Please wait a moment, I need to ask Mr. Adwin to know." ”

An Yang nodded.

The girl walked in.

After a while, she came out with some surprise: "Sorry to keep you waiting, Advin Rees is my grandfather, I really didn't know he also had a student named Oliver, now please come with me, your entourage can wait here." ”

An Yang nodded: "No problem." ”

He also vaguely guessed that Adwin must have been sneaky when he taught Oliver the occult arts, and even the identity of Adwin's apprentice was not necessarily known to outsiders, so naturally, others did not know that he had such a student.

As the girl, who was about his age, walked into the façade of the building, he met an old man.

"This is my grandfather."

An Yang nodded: "Yes." ”

"This is ...... An adult introduced by your student. ”

"Hmm."

The old man only nodded.
