Arthur spent about a week in Wellington, not only visiting Victoria University of Wellington, but also giving lectures inside Victoria University for more than an hour.

Although I don't know what the actual impact will be, judging from the awe-inspiring and enthusiastic eyes of the teachers and students of Victoria University of Wellington, and the hard work of the students, the effect of the speech should be good.

After leaving Wellington, the cars that were transported with the fleet came in handy.

By car, Arthur headed northwest to Opunaki, a small town in the Tasman South Taraki Bay.

It's not much like the average fisherman town in New Zealand, but it means a lot to New Zealand and Australasia today.

Since Typhoon landed in New Zealand on 8 November 1903, the situation in New Zealand and Oceania as a whole has changed dramatically.

First, New Zealand voted to join Australia after the disaster, forming the Commonwealth of Australia and New Zealand, and then the current Kingdom of Australasia.

The first area where the typhoon made landfall in New Zealand was Opunaki, a small town that looked no different from other areas.

In addition to the current town of Opunaki, there is also a monument to the typhoon at that time.

The monument attracts many Australasian visitors, and it is one of the great disasters not only in New Zealand, but also in Australasia.

The disaster cost New Zealand not only more than 100,000 people, but also millions of cattle and sheep and large crops, which is why the total population of New Zealand is only 1.35 million so far.

Arthur stood in front of the Typhoon Disaster Memorial for a long time and presented a bouquet of flowers.

While this was a normal move for Arthur, it was grateful to many New Zealanders who had personally experienced the typhoon.

After all, after that typhoon, Australia not only made a donation to New Zealand, Arthur also made two donations in the name of the Duke of Australia and a private person.

After doing what he had to do in the small town of Opunaki, Arthur followed the Western Highway of North New Zealand, all the way up, through New Spurmouth, Piopio, Hamilton, Huntley, Waikato Harbour, Manukau, and finally arrived at his second destination in North New Zealand, Auckland.

At this time, Auckland was the aftermath of the disaster, and has quickly rebuilt into the second largest city in Northern New Zealand.

This is because many Auckland citizens chose to stay in Auckland, even if Auckland was devastated by a typhoon and became a wasteland.

When he arrived in Auckland, Arthur found that the area had been rebuilt well. Although the industrial area is not very developed at the moment, agriculture and livestock are everywhere, which is a clear indication of the current state of development in Auckland.

Within Auckland, there is also the University of Auckland, one of New Zealand's three universities. As is customary, Arthur also visited the University of Auckland and gave a lecture.

Aucklanders are even more grateful to Arthur, after all, if it weren't for the generosity of Arthur and Australia, Auckland would not have been able to rebuild so quickly.

Suffice it to say, Aucklanders were able to quickly return to their pre-disaster good life in a matter of years, thanks to Arthur and Australia's donations.

After an equally boring but obligatory inspection and review, Arthur sailed his fleet to Picton, the capital of South New Zealand, across the sea from Wellington.

The state of Northern New Zealand and the state of Southern New Zealand are very different in terms of development.

South New Zealand is larger than North New Zealand in terms of area, but South New Zealand has about half the population of North New Zealand.

As the largest city in Southern New Zealand, Picton has a population of over 80,000. But Auckland, New Zealand's second-largest city, has a population of more than 100,000 after the disaster.

If Northern New Zealand has a certain scale of industry, then the only advantages of the New Zealand state are animal husbandry and agriculture.

Southern New Zealand is far behind in all respects compared to Northern New Zealand, and this is what Arthur knows best after passing through North and South New Zealand.

But Southern New Zealand also sees more lush farmland and larger pastoral areas, and the faces of the people of Southern New Zealand are also full of smiles.

There is really nothing to visit in Southern New Zealand, the three major cities of Picton, Christchurch and Invercargill are all small cities with populations of no more than 100,000, while the total population of Southern New Zealand is less than half of that of Sydney.

After a quick round of the three cities, Arthur inspected the New Zealand garrison in Picton.

After encouraging all the soldiers, and personally handing out the salaries and supplies to some of them, Arthur was satisfied with his journey in New Zealand and headed for the colony of New Guinea, the next destination of his cruise.

After years of construction in the colony of New Guinea, its capital, Port Moresby, has grown into a city of 50,000 people.

And because of Arthur's strategic granary plan, New Guinea has always been regarded by the Australasian government as a natural granary, and it is also one of the experimental sites for Australasian mechanized agriculture.

New Guinea now produces more than one-sixth of Australia's food production, enough food for more than four million people to eat for a year.

Because of the good relations with Germany, part of the grain produced in New Guinea was directly transported to German New Guinea in the north, which also led to the fact that German New Guinea did not have much arable land, after all, Germany did not have the heart to vigorously develop farming in such an area.

The officials of the colonial government of New Guinea attached great importance to Arthur's review, and Arthur also symbolically encouraged the officials, and followed the important officials of the colonial government to visit several large plantation areas in New Guinea.

A review of New Guinea's troops followed, and these operations also cost Arthur three days in New Guinea.

After doing this, Arthur hurried to Timor in Australia, where he continued his next leg of the cruise.

The Governor of Australian Timor is Roman Pito, a member of the Royal Parliament and an official from New Zealand.

As one of the first New Zealand officials to swear allegiance to Arthur, it is not surprising that Roman Pito was given the status of Governor of Australian Timor, after all, the team brought by Arthur from Britain was basically entrusted with important duties, and the vacancies could only be promoted from Australian and New Zealand talents.

But that would be a good thing, and at least it would reassure the Australian and New Zealand forces loyal to Arthur.

After all, if Arthur only recognized the officials he brought from Britain, then the local forces of Australasia would not be able to integrate into Arthur's core subordinate circle, and his loyalty to Arthur would naturally decrease.

As the latest area to be incorporated into the territory of Australasia, Australian Timor naturally has a small population.

Even after several years of development, the current population of Australian Timor can only exceed 10,000, and almost all of the population of Australian Timor is distributed in Dili, the capital of Timor.

If New Guinea is an important food producing area in Australasia, then Australian Timor is more of a military fortress and outpost.

Although it has only a population of just over 10,000 people, Dili has a garrison of up to 3,000 people and a number of radio stations to keep in touch with Australasia.

In fact, Arthur and the government did exactly that. Australian Timor could not be developed in a short period of time, so the government directly used it as an outpost for the defense of Australasia.

Because there are still thousands of Portuguese residents in Australian Timor, Arthur spent the shortest time in Australian Timor.

Although Arthur was interested in witnessing the folk life of Australian Timor, he thought about it and forgot about it.

After all, it had only been more than two years since the land was annexed by Australasia, and the city of Dili was home to thousands of grape residents.

Although in order to maintain the stability of Australian Timor, after the formal annexation of Timor, the Governor of Roman had already organized several seizure operations in the area, and the inhabitants of Australasia were not allowed to possess thermal weapons, and the possession of thermal weapons by the inhabitants of Australasia had to be registered with the government, and each use of weapons had to be reported.

But who can guarantee that there will be no hidden heat weapons among these Portuguese residents, just waiting for the arrival of high-ranking Australasian government officials and Arthur.

As the saying goes, no matter how high his kung fu is, he is afraid of kitchen knives, even if Arthur is fully prepared, he will not bet on whether someone will assassinate him.

After all, are there few such examples in history? There is a very similar one, that is, the Austro-Hungarian Crown Prince Ferdinand, who caused the First World War.

There were also many kings and high-ranking nobles, including King Alexander I of Serbia and King George I of Greece.

The bloody cases of these people tell Arthur a truth, that is, no matter how noble his identity is, no matter how many people love him, he is an ordinary person, and he will still die if he is shot.

A good king is not right, he wants to gamble his life, Arthur is not so stupid.

In fact, as long as Arthur doesn't take any chances, the chances of being assassinated are almost nil. After all, there is a regiment of troops protecting it on the surface, and there are many intelligence officers of the Royal Security Intelligence Service secretly following behind, and if there is any change in Arthur's surroundings, these intelligence officers will take action as soon as possible.

Not to mention those who can get within 300 meters of Arthur, they are definitely all those whose identities have been checked.

Those who can get close to 200 meters will even have to be searched for another round. Unless it is a minister or official that Arthur trusts in particular, Arthur's guards and members of the Royal Security Intelligence Service will not be merciful, and if they are not subject to inspection, they will be arrested first.
