Terra Calendar 1591.1.10.

07:00 AM.

Junction and above-ground plates (repetition continents).

Nirvana Water City.

Buzz –

The tremor of the Dimensional Gate gradually subsided, and the Authority's Task Force Mole steadied his footsteps, his gaze passing through the slowly dissipating blue light, and he saw the magnificence of Nirvana Water City for the first time.

"This is the ...... of the Ensemble Continent" The mole took a deep breath and paced into the bustling crowd.

The Junction, located at a delicate balance between the present world and countless planes, is one of the darkest areas of triangular trade.

Merchants from all realms transport cheap industrial goods to the border in exchange for financial slaves (beasts and other non-human races), transport financial slaves to the city of the New World (Addisi Federation) and sell them, buy back production materials from the New World, make goods and transport them to the border in exchange for slave financial subordinates, and complete the circular trade.

As the pivotal trading hub of the Realms and the New World, the Junction has two main plates: above and below ground.

Each plate has unique characteristics and inhabitants, and together they form a diverse and complex ecosystem.

The above-ground plate is a vibrant world with dense forests, vast plains, towering mountains, and meandering rivers.

The skies here are shrouded in a mysterious glow all year round, the day, night and seasons are very different from the current world, and the inhabitants of the earthly plates come from all planes, including humans, elves, dwarves, and many more fantastical races.

They established various forms of social organization here, from simple tribes to complex kingdoms and republics, each bearing the unique imprint of its original plane.

The above-ground plates are also known as the Repeat Continents.

As for the reason, it is naturally because the formation of the junction is inseparable from the six ensemble performances of the [Crimson King], and since the Red King launched the interpretation, Terra's pattern has inevitably rushed in a direction that no one expected.

In addition to the Symphony Continent, there is also an underground plate called "the other side" at the junction.

Unlike the bustling scene above, the underground plate is a field full of unknowns and dangers.

It's a vast network of endless caverns, labyrinths, and underground cities that hide ancient secrets and powerful magic.

The environments of the subterranean plates are extremely diverse, from red-hot lava lakes to icy underground rivers, and the creatures that inhabit them are equally diverse, including underground gnomes, ghosts, evil spirits, and other more mysterious beings.

These creatures tend to be hostile to outsiders, but some seek allies.

The area on the other side was originally going to be called the "Abyss", but the realms seemed to have a tacit understanding that they didn't want to give this name to the underground plate.

Because the term "abyss" already has a default endorsement force in the hearts of all races.

Although they don't call themselves the abyss, what they do is no different from the abyss demons.

Whenever those madmen who exalt human supremacy "go crazy" against the heavens and all races, gods and demons, this kind of behavior is called the abyss eruption by scholars in all worlds.

According to the analysis of the historians of the worlds, a new round of the abyssal eruption cycle is about to arrive, and a new round of abyssal eruption is bound to sweep the worlds, and the abyss will definitely annihilate all living beings as its enemies.

They even ......, no, they will inevitably do something to their "kindred" in Terra.

In any case, the worlds are ready to resist the abyss and fight to the death against the mad demons who call themselves "angels".

The Authority is regarded as a vicious dog force formed by the spread of pollution in the abyss, and the eyes of the Operator Mole, who is under the Vicious Dog Force, is quickly sweeping over the Nirvana Water City for the first time, this mysterious city-state located at the junction, with its unique water structure and blue-green brilliance.

The mole took a deep breath and blended into the bustle of the adventurer's area on the north side, the air filled with the smell of humidity and the fragrance of various planes.

Five days ago, the Director's assignment pierced through his daily routine like a beam, and under the direction of the Director and the Genealogical Think Tank [Adam], he was busy adjusting the [mod] loopholes on his body, while screening the task force who could go with him in danger.

His brief run-in with Special Operator Kyaukyue Rabbit.

He had a preliminary grasp of the upcoming scientific tasks and the newly equipped equipment.

Time seems to be peeling back in this preparation, and every minute and second is urgent and precious.

The Director's expectations are heavier than Tarzan for the Mole, and according to the details revealed by the Director, the Authority will begin a cleansing of Hell's Kitchen just in time for Midwinter.

He must bring [Operator Green Bull] back to the world before Midwinter, and only have one week left to complete the three fledgling task force branches.

According to Xia Xiu's plan, he will set up twelve special operators in the Authority, and each special operator will lead a task force branch to complete all the tasks he has assigned - the twelve special operators only listen to his orders and are only responsible to him.

At this stage, Xia Xiu plans to use battle to raise the war and sharpen his task force into a sharp blade in battle, so he first selects three special operators and builds a basic team.

With the foundation team, the subsequent development only needs to be cyclical and gradual.

And now the basic team is missing two, so the mole needs to bring Evan Lowell back to the Authority within two days, the other party is an operator selected by the director, which has its irreplaceable uniqueness.

As an operator who has learned about the Director's "Family Plan", Mole knows how important Qingniu's talent is to the plan.

"Nirvana Water City, located in the southern region of the Junction, is a unique city-state built on a vast lake."

While walking in Nirvana's Water City, the mole recalled information about Water City in his mind.

"The rulers of the city of Water are the Naga, and the political system of the city-state is built around the ancient traditions of the Naga and the worship of the water element, forming a unique political structure that combines centralization and parliamentarism. The Naga queen was the supreme ruler of the city-state and served as both a political leader and a high priest. ”

The mole was standing in front of a statue of the Naga Queen, carved from rare deep-sea jade with a soft blue-green hue.

The image of the queen in the sculpture is both solemn and beautiful, with a human head and a snake body, symbolizing the noble blood of the Naga people.

Her countenance is delicately portrayed and kind, full of wisdom and compassion, but there is a majesty in her eyes that cannot be desecrated. She held a jewel symbolizing the water of life in her hand, as if silently guarding the peace of the entire city-state and its inhabitants.

In Watercity, Queen Naga is regarded as the mortal spokesperson of the Naga deities and has the final decision-making power.

The queen's duties included making laws, overseeing enforcement, leading religious ceremonies, and maintaining peace and order within and outside the city-state.

Below the queen is the Water Council, which is made up of nobles, wise men, and magicians of the Naga tribe, who are responsible for assisting the queen, discussing and deliberating on major policies, and managing the day-to-day affairs of the city-state.

The members of the Water Council are also responsible for overseeing the functioning of the various executive branches and ensuring that laws and orders are effectively enforced.

The reason why the mole knew so much about Watertown was because of a statement they had received five days earlier.

A rejection of the Authority's statement on the establishment of diplomatic relations:

"After careful consideration and assessment of the current international situation and the basic positions of the two sides, we regret to find that at the current stage, there are considerable differences between the two sides on some fundamental principles. In particular, Nirvana's basic stance is incompatible with the human supremacist policies advocated by the Authority.

We are convinced that true peace and prosperity are based on mutual respect and equality, not just for human beings, but for all life forms that inhabit our grand universe.

Therefore, after careful consideration, we have decided to postpone the establishment of formal diplomatic relations at this time.

At the same time, we see great potential for cooperation with the Authority in many non-political areas, such as scientific and technological exchanges, thaumaturgical projects, and environmental protection initiatives. We look forward to further discussions and cooperation with the Authority in these areas to promote our shared home.

Here, Nirvana Water City reaffirms our commitment to peace, diversity and inclusion, and is willing to find more ways to promote understanding and cooperation in the days to come to build a better world for all of us.

salute

Queen of Nirvana Water City. ”

That's what the statement is about.

And it comes shortly after the Authority announced that the director had taken office.

The mole still remembers the scene five days ago.

At that time, he was working with the Director in the dimly lit room on the detailed adjustment of the [mod].

Suddenly, the door was gently pushed open, and Pansy Jane, the chief of intelligence, walked in with steady steps.

She clutched a document in her hand, a statement from Nirvana Water City.

When Pansy Jane handed the statement to Xia Xiu, he stopped what he was doing, took the paper, and quickly swept his gaze over the paper.

Soon, a sunny smile appeared on his face, a smile that was characteristic of him and that could infect everyone around him.

He whispered in a very confused and slightly mocking tone:

"They really think I'm asking for them?"

The mole froze in place for a moment, and after reacting, he couldn't help but feel speechless in his heart for the stupidity of the leader of the water city.

The Authority has made requests for the establishment of diplomatic relations with many of the planes in the borderlands, and most of those regimes have been treated coldly as turtles with shrunken heads.

The Authority also knows what role it plays, so it doesn't feel anything, it's just going through the motions, and first say hello to them "politely".

It was the first time Xia Xiu had seen such a pure commodity as Shuicheng.

Did they really think the Authority was asking for them?

What's behind the Authority?

Heaven!

When does Heaven need to ask for an alien opinion?

The people of the Oneiroi Clan would never dare to dream such a ridiculous dream.

The statement from Mizujo, wrapped in a veneer of politeness and diplomacy, was in essence a challenge to the authority of the Authority, a veiled disdain.

Mole is 100% sure that if the director hadn't been entangled in the mess of Hell's Kitchen, with such a pure commodity, Mizuki would have really taken an iron fist of sanction immediately, so that Mizuki would understand what the real power was.

However, if you can't stand the iron fist now, it doesn't mean that you won't have a chance in the future.

Because of the "purity" of Water City, there is more than one, and it also has many eye-catching operations.

After a brief glance at the statue of the Naga Queen of the Water City, the mole slowly traveled along the north side of the Nirvana Water City, eventually reaching the inaccessible slave farming area.

Far from the hustle and bustle of the city, this area is particularly lonely and gloomy.

Here, the vast expanse of water is divided into special underwater farmlands, in which a variety of exotic aquatic plants grow, which either glow faintly or emit a charming fragrance, which is specially designed for the working environment of the slaves of the deep sea.

On the water, on the floating platform, stood overseers and managers, their eyes cold and wary, from time to time scanning the surroundings with a sharp gaze.

Underwater, the beasts of the water system are working hard day after day.

These beasts come in a variety of forms, from fishtails to scale-covered creatures, farming alone or working in groups, but all of them have expressions of exhaustion and despair.

Bound by special tools and shackles, the beasts use their special abilities, such as manipulating the flow of water or changing the growth rate of plants in the water, to complete heavy farming.

Although their movements underwater appear light and nimble, it is only because they have been forced to adapt to such a life.

Whenever a beast slows down due to exhaustion, it is immediately punished by the overseer, and even under the water, the shrill shouting can be clearly heard in every corner.

There is an oppressive and heavy atmosphere in the air in this area, and even moles far from the surface of the water can feel the sadness and despair coming from underwater.

The slave farming district is not only a testament to the economic prosperity of Nirvana Watertown, but also a direct manifestation of its dark side, where the beasts are deprived of their freedom and forced to pay for the greed and luxury of others.

This is another "pure" manifestation of the Water City - the establishment of a slave agricultural area in the open, but also open to the public, allowing visitors to see.

The slave farming district of Nirvana Water City is a disputed strip located on the edge of the city, far from the main commercial and residential areas.

This area is a direct product of the Black Triangle trade, which involves the trade and exploitation of deep-sea slaves and beasts.

These beasts are primarily aquatic creatures with unique abilities that allow them to grow and harvest crops underwater, which are sold to participants in the Black Triangle trade, such as the Golden Court.

The slave farming area was designed as a semi-underwater agricultural production base.

The area has habitats designed for aquatic slaves, as well as underwater farmland suitable for growing aquatic plants and other special crops.

On the water, there are living quarters for overseers and managers, as well as facilities for storing and transporting agricultural products.

The beasts who were forced to work here were in a difficult situation.

Despite the fact that their ability to work underwater was highly exploited, they were deprived of their liberty, lived in poor conditions, worked long hours and had few breaks.

The beasts are assigned to different crop production tasks, including underwater farming, plant cultivation, and harvesting.

The agricultural areas of the slave areas produced a wide variety of crops, including but not limited to special aquatic fruits and vegetables, medicinal herbs, and other rare plants, which were extremely valuable in the Black Triangle trade.

The produce was first shipped to the markets inside the city for initial trading, and then most of it was sent to areas such as the Golden Court, where it became a luxury item for the nobility and wealthy merchants.

Such a complete slave chain is generously shown to the outside world by Shuicheng.

This made the mole not know how to "praise" the cleverness of the leadership of Shuicheng for a while.

There are some things that can be done openly and secretly, and the difference is very big.
