20 The Twelve Empires (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Picking up a gold coin, Saga stared unblinking.
The round surface of the coin is not smooth, but is engraved with different patterns on the front and back, one of which depicts a sun with a fiery crown, and the other side depicts a miniature mountain river.
On the planet Saiga, the monetary system has never been unified because of the coexistence of many empires.
Through the Dragon's Legacy, Sachar recognized the gold coin.
The Solar Gold Coins, gold coins minted by the Char Empire on the continent of Yar east of Thorn Island, also have different patterns printed on the gold and silver coins, one side is the same miniature mountain river, and the other side is the moon and stars.
Yar Continent, one of the six continents, is adjacent to the Claes Continent.
Both are located in the northern hemisphere of Saiga.
At the same time, due to the fact that some plates are connected together, with the Midahga Mountains, the Kaki River, the Red Sea, the Falling Star Sea, the Gus Mountains, the Blue Dragon Strait and other places that form a long line on the surface of the continent as the dividing line, the Yar Continent and the Claes Continent are known as the place where the sun rises, and the surface area of a single continent is more than one billion square kilometers.
The Char Empire is located in the eastern part of the Yar continent.
It is a magical empire dominated by humans, monarchies, and a mix of multi-intelligent creatures.
The Char Empire's magically forged sky town pressed the region, hanging between the flowing wind and floating clouds, high above, overlooking all things, with many spellcasters, also known as -
Empire of the Clouds.
The Empire of the Heavens is one of the twelve empires of the planet Saiga, and the comprehensive national strength is among the best, and the proportion of extraordinary people with the talent for spell-casting is terrifying, reaching an incredible level, and all the people are extremely worshipful of magic, and only those who show the talent for casting spells can be recognized as the people of the sky.
As long as you know magic, no matter what race, you can enjoy VIP treatment in the Sky City of the Cloud Empire, receive a warm welcome, and there will be countless enthusiastic spellcasters to discuss magic and study the truth together with you, and you will feel that this place is like a paradise on earth, as if it is a holy place for spellcasters.
But if you can't magic............
It's best not to go to the Empire.
This is a paradise for spellcasters, and at the same time a hell for those who have no talent, the human spellcasters of the Cloud Empire are arrogant to the extreme, treating ordinary human beings who can't cast spells as if they were beasts, even if they are warriors and thieves at the legendary level, in their opinion, they are just a little more powerful, legendary beasts with human skins.
Examples of human magic experiments abound, and they are allowed, and there are even special shops selling 'experimental materials', and some spellcasters who belong to the Empire that prohibits human magic experiments often come to the Empire to conduct the magic research they want.
The laws of the Empire protect only the citizens of the spellcaster.
Other than that.
Dragons are spread across the infinite multiverse, and the Dragon's Legacy is also recorded, so Saga has infinite multiverse cognition.
He knew that the world he was in was only one of the endless worlds like stars, in the main material plane.
Plane –
In Zachar's current understanding, it refers to the collection of countless worlds.
Endless worlds vary in size and shape, whether it is a landmass, a planet, a galaxy, or even a vast universe.
The relationship between the plane and the world is like a big bubble wrapped in countless small bubbles.
The diaphragm that separates the 'bubble' is called the crystal wall, the plane barrier, and between the crystal walls is an amber-like fluid called phlogiston, in addition to powerful props such as teleportation arrays, magic ships and some special spells, some powerful creatures have the ability to directly travel between the world and the plane.
There is also more than one plane.
In addition to the main material plane, there are also the Bottomless Abyss, the Elysium Realm, the Nine Layers of Hell, the Astral Boundary, the Chaos Sea, the Machine Realm, the Wind Howling Abyss, the Beast Country, the Hero Realm, and the Heavenly Mountain............. and other gods, mechanical mounds, oracles, demons, elemental lords, animal lords, demons, and other beings live in the outer planes.
However, even in the endless world of the main material plane, the planet Saiga is special.
Because in the vast majority of worlds, in the same era, only one magical empire can be born, and more can have two or three confrontations with each other.
But!
There are twelve empires that exist and are still thriving on the planet Saiga!
The twelve empires are like the sun hanging in the sky, plus nearly 100 kingdoms, hundreds of principalities, incalculable small federations, tribes, independent cities, etc., all of which shine together to illuminate the endless and magnificent beauty of the planet Saiga.
Except for the Sky Empire.
There is also the Skaven Empire, which is also located in the east of Yar, almost coexisting with the Char Empire underground, and the Skaven Empire, which is engaged in friction and trade at the same time.
Straddling the continent of Claes and Yar, the Tur Empire is located in the north of Yar and east of Claes, which is a Ten Thousand Beast Empire ruled by several Beast Emperors at the same time and many orc races coexist at the same time, and extremely advocates violence.
Located in the northwest of the Claes continent, the Calvin Empire, the Elven Empire, the Natural Empire, the navigation magic warships are very developed, romantic, and have the best natural magic academy, welcoming all citizens of the empire to exchange.
In the middle of Claes, only human citizens are recognized, the Iglam Empire is good at war, and is good at metal, steel, and magic construction.
............
Yar and Claes are two continents with five empires.
And the most outrageous thing is.
Four of these five empires are high powers!
Only the Skaven Empire is an ordinary empire, occupying an imperial seat in the parliament of the higher powers, and they are both empires, but their status and influence are not comparable to those of the higher powers, which is a natural thing, and the five high empires are fighting with each other openly and secretly, but at the same time they jointly suppress other empires, so as to consolidate their high status in the empires.
Four of the five higher states are similarly distributed.
This may seem a bit bizarre.
But it makes sense to think about it.
In the two super giant continents of Claes Continent and Yar Continent, all kinds of resources are incomparably rich, and it is a land that can give birth to the strong, and at the same time, because too many empires, kingdoms, city-states, etc. were born here, the involution is very serious, the weak have long been eliminated, and the obscurity is extinguished, only the strong can rise and go to glory.
The remaining four continents are basically only one empire in each continent, and there are a total of nine empires on the continent of the planet Saiga.
In addition, the five high empires also have differences in strength.
The Yunxiao Empire, the Demon Empire, and the Divine Empire - these three are the upper three kingdoms, and their comprehensive national strength is among the best.
The Empire of Nature, the Empire of Ten Thousand Beasts - these two are the next two kingdoms.
The two lower kingdoms are close to each other's comprehensive national strength, stronger than other empires, and all of them are slightly weaker than the clouds, magic weapons and sacredness.
In the four oceans beyond the six continents.
There are also sharks, krakens, and demon fish, three major sea clan empires.
Six continents and nine empires, four oceans and three empires, together constitute the twelve empires of the Saiga planet, as for the kingdoms, principalities, independent city-states and so on under the empire, there are even more stars, countless, they are either completely independent, or follow a certain empire, according to the instructions of the empire quietly affect the pattern of the Saiga planet, support the alliance, suppress dissent.
More than 2,000 years ago.
Under the leadership of the five high empires, many empires signed no-war agreements, and the planet Saiga entered a new era of apparent peace.
However, it is only superficially peaceful.
The flames of war have never been extinguished, they have been burning cruelly.
In addition to many empires, there is also a deep sea dragon city known as the Holy Land of the Sea Clan, which is respected by the three major Sea Clan empires; Straddling the plane barriers, with branches in the endless world, the slogan is [Towards Heaven and Abyss]'s Adventurers' Association; Cross-plane and cross-world, only recruit gifted spellcasters, the Wizards of Truth Society dedicated to the study of the truth of spells, and so on...... A huge force that many empires also attach great importance to.
"The Twelve Empires............ The power of the Red Dragon Lady is actually a principality at most, and the territory is far from enough, but it has the corresponding military combat power. ”
Zachar's thoughts withdrew from the memory of the inheritance and shifted to the gold coin in front of him.
Under Zachar's gaze.
The precious metal currency belonging to the Empire of the Heavens glows with a faint elemental aura.
In particular, the Solar Gold Coin is the most intense.
If there are thousands of Sunrise Gold coins gathered together, they can attract elemental energy to converge, achieving the effect of greatly increasing the concentration of surrounding elemental energy, and a single absorption can also help increase mana.
With this effect, the value of precious metal currencies speaks for themselves.
They are not only currency that carries the credibility of the empire, but also have commodity value in their own right, and because agate, jade, crystal, diamonds, and other gems can absorb elemental energy more than metal minerals, they are often more valuable than precious metals if they become magic gems.
However, although there are no more precious magic gems here, Sachar is already satisfied.
If there were magic gems, the caster's staff would not be a bare short wooden staff, so Saga was prepared.
Seventy percent of those gold and silver coins came from the caster's purse.
The rest was scavenged from other adventurers.
"Take it away, take it all!"
Saga picked up gold and silver coins and shoved them under the scales around his neck.
Dragon scales are a layered structure, and the most superficial layers can even be erected diagonally under the control of the dragon.
It's nice to be filled.
Many dragons will keep their beloved collections in the scale armor layer close to their bodies.
In most cases, some bits and pieces of gold coins or gems, in the absence of space equipment, dragons tend to stuff them into the scale armor compartment to carry, which will not make the dragon feel uncomfortable, the feeling of being filled is very fulfilling, some dragons who especially like to carry treasures with them, it is simply a moving treasure trove, ordinary people can never imagine how many treasures can be hidden under the scales of a dragon.
When some transcendents fight dragons, there is a chance that the dragon's body will burst gold coins when they hit the dragon's body, and this is the reason.
