Extraordinary Voyage Chapter 309: Silver Island Chain and Holy Baptistery
After half a month.
The news of the revival of the Black Sea goddess Hipponoah has already spread like a whirlwind across the three active continents.
Countless countries and forces are evaluating how this existence will affect the current maritime shipping, whether it will cause turbulence in the continental structure, and whether it can benefit from it.
The recovery of this goddess is like a large rock thrown into a calm lake, with waves of ripples that can't be calmed for a long time.
South of the Old World.
Alfonso Peninsula is adjacent to the Black Sea and the Treasure Sea at the same time.
On this fertile land rich in mineral deposits, three countries of equal strength once coexisted. Although there will not be endless battles for years, there has never been a real peace in the history of the Alfonso Peninsula for hundreds of thousands of years.
Until 200 years ago, the era of great navigation began.
Under the leadership of a wise king, one of the countries seems to have taken advantage of the east wind and installed an accelerator. In a short period of time, its comprehensive national strength has far surpassed its peers, and even ranked among the world's powers.
But just over a dozen years.
The two neighbors of the Alfonso Peninsula, the Umayyad Dynasty and the Grand Duchy of Algarve, have been eliminated one after another, and they have become the ultimate victor who dominates this fertile land!
The royal family has won unanimous support from all over the country because of such amazing achievements, and enjoys the supreme right of this country!
Moreover, for more than a hundred years, its pace of expansion has never stopped. Whether in terms of strength or national territory, it has become a world-wide power.
This country is the number one sea power that ruled this era of navigation-the overlord Hilius!
The jewel of Hilius, the royal capital Santa Cruz.
The "dome palace" belonging to the residence of the king and the royal family alone has a construction area of more than 200,000 square meters.
The ceremonial hall, concert hall, banquet hall, gallery, stables, gardens, sculptures, monuments, royal chapels... together form a small city, which brings together various treasures and artistic treasures from all over the world. Called the Museum of All Nations!
Like the footsteps of this country’s external conquest, this palace has never stopped expanding since the time of the great voyage. Every time a country is conquered, every time a colony is established, there will be an extra unique building with local characteristics!
It is talked about by all the citizens of Hilius.
Today.
Philip II, dressed in a formal dress and wearing a shining crown, summoned his subjects in the domed palace where he was discussing matters to "welcome" a guest from afar.
Boom——
Vases decorated with enamel, malachite, and gold rims were pushed to the ground by the "furious" King.
An official nearby "faithfully" recorded His Majesty's words and deeds.
‘His Majesty lost his collateral to the bank group-the ‘Thistle Crown’ that still belongs to Hilius was thunderous and furious...
Smashed the precious vase of precious treasures from the Peacock Islands tribute... vow to hold the Dutch bank group accountable! ’
However.
The Philip II in "Wrath" glanced at the well-dressed young messenger standing under the steps, and saw that although he was respectful but still not humble, he felt a moment of boredom.
Sit back on his throne and cough slightly.
"Cough!"
One of the following subjects showed up more and more when he saw this. He first glanced at the messenger, and then said respectfully to his king:
"Your Majesty, the Netherlands bears the inescapable responsibility for the loss of the'Thistle Crown'! Although the treasure was looted and lost, the top of the board of directors is still there.
They must compensate the kingdom for its losses. No matter which country’s judges are allowed to judge, the truth lies on the side of the kingdom! "
His majesty, who was powerful and powerful on the throne, quietly quieted the golden armrest of the throne without comment, and then once again turned his attention to the other subjects.
Immediately another person walked out of the queue and bowed in salute:
"My Majesty! The judge is right, but I have one more thing to add.
Our collateral is tied to the Kingdom’s loan. The current situation is that even if we eventually repay the loan, the Dutch bank group cannot return the collateral to us.
So, I think the kingdom will temporarily stop repayments before the bank consortium retrieves this collateral! This is a very reasonable request. "
"Well, what the Chief Justice and the Chancellor of the Exchequer clearly made sense. Messenger Silas, what do you think?"
The king's eyes were cunning.
Obviously by now everyone already knows what Huggins did with that crown, and finally understood the potential value of that crown.
Although Philip II just heard that the sapphire on the crown was actually the "heart of the sea" representing the authority of the Black Sea, he was so sad that he wanted to vomit blood.
If there can be a Poseidon who is under his control, even if he is only close to him, then who else will be the opponent of Hilius in this sea? !
But now that I have lost that treasure, it is too late to say anything.
As a talented king, even thinking about the emperor's throne, he is now thinking of course to find a way to recover the loss from other places.
So.
Are there any better claimants than the "Netherlands Bank Group"? And the victims of this incident are far more than their own family.
Although "Heart of the Sea" is good, the huge wealth belonging to the "Netherlands Bank Group" is not bad at all.
The young man named Silas standing under the steps smiled slightly:
"Your Majesty! Since I am here on behalf of the bank group, of course I am with the sincerity of belonging to the bank group.
We all know very well what is currently lacking in the Kingdom of Sirius. Real gold and silver are more useful than a crown that can be seen but not used! "
Philip II didn't care too much about his understatement of "Can you see or not", but asked with interest:
"Oh? Real money? Does the messenger agree to our request?"
"No, no, no, you have misunderstood what I mean. Of course business is one size and one size.
The bank group does not have the ability to claim the lost property from a demigod, but it can bring you more wealth, and the amount of this wealth will definitely satisfy you, please see! "
As I said, I took a document from my leather bag and handed it to the waiter on the side, indicating that it would be dedicated to the king.
When he heard the word "wealth", Philip II suddenly became interested and forgave the other party for his little rudeness in refuting him.
Slightly expecting to receive the documents that have been verified by the "waiter" and have no problem, expand to see:
"A report on the exploration of mineral reserves? It is located on an island in the New World, discovered by Potosí.
Silver reserves are abundant...The estimated reserves are 25,000...tons? ! ! ! "
Boom——
Philip II stood up suddenly, because he was too excited, he kicked another vase standing next to the throne to the ground, but he didn't care about the distress at all, so he asked eagerly:
"Where is Silver Island?"
Can't help the current most noble king in the mainland not excited.
What is the concept of 25,000 tons? Converted to 55.1 million pounds, even if they were all cast into 32-pound cannonballs, nearly two million cannons could be fired!
To what level can the kingdom’s armaments be raised by buying artillery and shells? This is an account that children can calculate!
That kind of meaning is not necessarily weaker than getting the help of a demigod.
Seeing this number, Philip II had already completely forgotten the topic of "Responding to Changes in the Situation in the Black Sea after the Recovery of Hipponoah", another purpose of this gathering of his subjects.
A wink at the "thorn fire" among the four guardian knights of the kingdom sitting next to him. The latter nodded and turned into a red whirlwind to completely seal off the discussion palace.
‘Huh! The greedy King of Hilius really took the bait. ’
A gleam of successful strategy flashed through the eyes of the youth messenger.
The Potosi island chain named after the discoverer is a veritable "Silver Islands", which was born as a result of a volcanic eruption, but the island is not currently controlled by Sirius or any civilized country Within range.
It is the homeland where a group of New World natives finally retreated in the cracks of many forces.
After the expedition of the bank group discovered the island, it was because of many factors that they did not start to excavate it for a long time. Even with hands, this piece of fat may not fall into the mouth of the bank group.
If long-term occupation and continuous mining cannot be guaranteed, it's almost the same as watching a splash.
However, at present, it seems that the bank group, which has been badly injured, can use a piece of news that is only a mirror image of itself to get a profit exchange enough to make up for the shortfall and survive this crisis.
By the way...Hilius, one of the chief culprits that indirectly led to the catastrophic events of the banking group, can also learn a lesson!
Ihilius' hegemony will inevitably lead to fierce conflicts with several other colonies. The key is to let them give up on them even if they know the consequences?
Why did the Netherlands, who didn't have a peak fourth-tier powerhouse or not qualified to have a fourth-tier powerhouse, stand for three hundred years?
It seems that too many people have forgotten the **** methods used by the bank to make a fortune!
.......
The Kingdom of Falitis "Newin Harbor".
After more than 20 days of trekking at sea, Aiwen and the crew of the "Cape Storm", who faced the "War of the Gods", returned to Port Newin exhausted physically and mentally.
"Is the autumn voyage to the New World this year not over yet?"
Stepping off the battleship, Ivan accidentally discovered that there were a lot of ocean-going merchant ships in "Newin Harbor" with extremely deep drafts, which were obviously fully loaded.
"Be careful! If these cashmere rugs are soaked in Shanghai water, I will peel off your skins!"
"Go to reminder, why haven't the transferred goods come?"
"..."
There is noise in the port.
After landing with a group of crew members, Aiwen, who just wanted to finish the report earlier and go back to rest, hadn't realized the meaning behind this scene, so he left it behind in a blink of an eye.
The current Aiwen is not interested in things that are not related to him at all.
"Holy Baptismal Water?"
Unexpectedly, when reporting to His Royal Highness and the Military Headquarters later, he suddenly got a surprise.
Before the bishop of "Newin Cathedral", Benedict gave Aiwen the reward for inventing the "Song of the Sea Monster" before he left, and it was finally delivered when Aiwen went to perform the mission in the Kingdom of Tyrol.
But he felt it was a rewarding taste.
"Why? Don't you want it?"
Sitting behind her desk, Livina played with a bottle of medicine that looked clear but slightly silvery, and joked at Aiwen who was standing in front of her.
According to the legend, the holy baptismal pond in the kingdom of the goddess is the place where the devotees who go to the kingdom of the gods reshape their bodies and get a new life. Another said that this is...the place where the goddess bathes.
But no matter what the real situation is.
This kind of "Holy Baptismal Water" can only get a very small amount of output through the ceremony in the annual Christmas Mass held in the "Iron Cross Throne", the land of the goddess miracle.
It is absolutely impossible to be bestowed without an undisputed merit for the church and the goddess.
The effect is also very direct:
After taking the official Cavaliers, they can expand their potential without side effects and gain the most perfect foundation~IndoMTL.com~ And depending on the original body foundation, within a period of one month to one year, it can reach two percent. The rank is officially the pinnacle of knights.
Of course, the effect is only limited to the body. The human mind and will are parts that the true **** cannot fully manipulate, and they are also parts that truly belong to the mortals themselves.
Perhaps for orthodox knights who are really interested in inspiring fighting spirit, even if they would rather become a peak knight two years later, they are not willing to take this shortcut, such as: His Royal Highness Livina himself.
Because although there are no side effects, the double tempering of the body and the soul when a little progress is made through hard practice is not good for tempering the will to stimulate [fighting].
However, this small shortcoming is nothing at all to Irving, a guy who has figured out that he wants to find a different way.
Furthermore, at the level of his current senior official knight, as long as he drinks this potion, it may not take two months to become a pinnacle knight!
Easily gain a powerful force that others can't ask for for ten, twenty, or even a lifetime!
