Chapter 510 Seeding Island and Territory Replacement

Mid-May.

The sun is shining, clear blue sky.

Five hundred kilometers west of the kingdom of Pharetis, a Level 4 battleship flying the long flag of Pharetis blue stayed on the sea in the form of a sailboat.

On the deck, three youngsters, two men and one woman, wearing wizard robes with navy uniforms, are raising their hands to sing around a brass apparatus composed of rune discs, crystals, and gears. With a lot of mantras.

As they chant continuously.

A blue beam of light soaring to the sky shot out from that strange device, and a circle of bright ring-shaped light beams bloomed, magnificent.

Meanwhile.

In their north, south, and east, different numbers of beams of light rose simultaneously.

detu——

The last incantation seemed to contain inexplicable fear.

With numerous blue light beams as the center, one after another invisible light waves spread rapidly.

On this huge oval Sea Territory, which may have a total area of more than 160,000 square kilometers, human beings and all kinds of animals were instantly enveloped in a deep sense of panic, and they could no longer care about other things, desperately trying to get to the sea. flee.

The spell has only one effect: mobs banish.

However.

This is the sixth time that [Witchcraft·Biological Expulsion] has been activated in three days, and the animals that escaped have been sparse, and the remaining ones can only go with the flow, or even completely. Unlucky bastard who can’t move.

Soon this area was almost extinct. Although it was still the green sea and blue sky, it looked a little lifeless after losing most of the creatures.

It took three days to finally complete the task of socializing and befriending. The only woman among the three let out a sigh of relief:

“Anthony, guess what the kingdom is doing here. ?”

“Come, look at my eyes.”

hearing this Anthony rolled the eyes hard, so that Dilis could see the whites of his eyes.

The brown-haired young man Alva next to him laughed heartily:

“Haha, Dilis, do you want to see me?”

“Idiot, Don’t!”

These three wizards are none other than Alwin’s friends whom Alwin has not seen for almost two years: Dilis, Anthony, and Alva.

Under the command of the chief great wizard Princeton, all the wizards of “Eyes of Violet” were mobilized to go to sea with the cooperation of the Royal Navy to carry out this task that no one could understand.

Don’t tell them, even the official wizards don’t know the inside story.

“If Alwin comes back, he should be qualified to know because of his status?”

While muttering, Anthony looked at the exquisite pocket watch in his hand.

What the senior executives want to do, with the task deadline approaching, the answer should be revealed soon.

at the same time.

The kingdom’s strongest battleship “Steam Fortress” has slowly approached the center of this oval Sea Territory, and it is only a few kilometers away from the predetermined position determined by the wizards of the alchemy school. distance.

Whoo—

The sea breeze blows.

Wearing a solemn, deep blue dress that is only worn at major celebrations, Queen Isabella stood quietly at the bow of the ship, and beside her was Crown Prince Livina in a navy dress .

Following are members of the upper house represented by the great nobles, important ministers of the kingdom, chief and second seats of the think tank, envoys from various countries within the alliance, and a priest.

“Ambassador Steele, don’t you have any inside information from Taylor? What is Phalatis doing? He even dispatched a Legendary battleship. Is this a new weapon to be tested?”

p>

“What new weapon will be tested by Queen Your Majesty?”

“What’s that for?”

“Oh, wait a minute and you’ll find out. ”

The people inside the kingdom are still calm, and the envoys of the various countries in the alliance have begun to whisper, whispering about the purpose of Pharetis to convene everyone.

Except for a few parties, the queen and the crown prince, only a few high-level people who are absolutely loyal to the country know what they are going to do now.

The envoys from the tulip countries, Bishop Benedict of the Faretis district representing the “Iron Cross Church”, who came here by invitation, don’t know what ceremony they want to see here.

Standing behind Isabella, Princeton took out his pocket watch and glanced at it, bowed slightly to the Queen and reminded:

“My esteemed Your Majesty, the time has passed. It’s here.”

After the battle to protect the “King of Sea Monsters” ended, the three people who did not dare to delay for a moment took the “Steam Fortress” together, and the “Blue Hole” determined by the church was directly transmitted to Fa Letis offshore.

While saving a lot of rush time, it also avoids the “brother’s” possible last resort – snatch the island and destroy it!

In the depths of the Black Sea, there is a large trench that can submerge even the highest mountain on the land. If you drop the island in there, you will not be able to turn a wave.

This is not a guess. After empathy, this is the most likely compromise that brother will take after he fails to kill Kraken.

However, because of the “blue hole” that cannot be intercepted by ghosts and ghosts, this worst situation cannot be turned into reality after all.

After returning to the kingdom, the trio immediately met Queen Isabella, and the departments across the Phaletis began to operate with unprecedented efficiency.

As long as the island doesn’t fall into the sea for a day, it could be taken away, and Queen Your Majesty will have an extra day of sleep and food.

And today is the day when all the pre-work is done and the island can really put down roots!

Isabella was instantly refreshed when she heard that the scheduled time had finally come, and looked up at the sky:

“Where’s General Garriott?”

“ Your Majesty, they’ve come.”

tone barely fell.

唳——

A blue electric light shot down from the sky, and the huge thunderbird flew around the “Steam Fortress” amid the exclamations of the envoys. A valiant and formidable looking black-haired female officer rides on the back of a bird and salutes the Queen from afar.

Your Majesty, the queen who has regained her graceful posture, smiled and waved.

sou!

Alwin has come to the sky above the predetermined position with a flutter of wings, hovering a little here, Olivia has already turned the light-shaped pocket island “Ugol” threw it down.

Just a few minutes later.

gu lu gu lu

Amidst the surging water, a small island tip shrouded in a haunting light emerged from the water. Then it expands rapidly like a water-absorbing sponge, getting taller and bigger.

In the blink of an eye, it has grown into an oval island, and the layer of aura on the surface protects the island from being immersed in seawater and avoids the tragedy of turning into a saline-alkali land before it is put into use.

Then it seems to expand from another dimension, and it keeps getting bigger and bigger in equal proportions.

This slowly unfolding method allows the seawater to recede naturally, and there is no terrifying natural disaster like a tsunami caused by the backlog of huge amounts of material in the seawater.

“Hahaha, it’s done!”

“God bless Pharretis!”

“Long live Your Majesty, Queen!”

See this mythical and mysterious scene.

On the “Steam Fortress”, which has begun to slowly retreat, all the high-level officials of the kingdom who know the inside story, except for those who are stunned and uninformed, burst out laughing.

When the shortest route between Cyrus and the new continent is blocked by Hipponoa’s “Eye of the Storm”.

The location where this island landed directly faced the only way to communicate the old and new continents – the westerly warm current, also known as the “Trident current” by navigators.

The starting point is the “yellow golden sea” in the middle of the new continent, which traverses the entire Black Sea from southwest to northeast, and when it reaches the old continent, it is divided into three parts at a place slightly west of Ugol :

One is the Canary Current that rubs the Ilia Kingdom to the south and reaches the Sea of Treasures, one is the Ilminge Current that continues northwards into the Northern Islands, and there is a smallest Tezca Current. Return to the north of the new continent.

This is an important sea passage linking new and old continents, and a return route in triangular trade, of course limited to the passage of powerful large-scale fleets.

This is off-limits for lone boats or undersized fleets.

The put down roots of this “Ugol Island” means that the sphere of influence of Faretis has been advanced at least 350 kilometers in the direction of the sea, and it has also completely occupied the branch of Trident. .

Whether it is the powerful Atlan in the northern archipelago, or the Cyrus Empire, which needs to turn south from here, it is almost a must-have place for the large-scale merchant ship fleet to pass through.

equivalent to artificially creating a Treasure Gathering Pot of infinite opportunities.

Because of this transportation hub-like location factor, even a stone island with nothing can make a lot of money, not to mention it is a treasure island with rich minerals and fertile soil.

Once they got their roots down, they were confident they could turn this into the center of the Tulip Union, or even the entire old continent’s trade center.

The future of ocean development will also belong to Phaletis!

This is also the original intention of this group of high-level leaders to select the site for the island.

When the Legendary battleship was boiling, Alwin and Olivia in the sky occupied the special seats with the best view.

Looking at the large island that seemed to be gradually unfolding from another dimension, Olivia hugged Alwin’s neck and asked softly:

“Alwin, the matter of the territory has been handed over. Is it?”

“Hehe, I heard that I’m going to do a territorial replacement. It’s too late for Queen Your Majesty to be happy, and the various documents for the promotion of the title have already been done immediately.

As long as we return to the new continent, we can go to the Georgian Governor’s Mansion for final confirmation.”

Alwin knew very well that based on the significance of this island to the kingdom, if he dared to choose the territory here , I don’t know how many crafty plots and machinations I will experience in the future.

The mind is darker. Maybe it is not that no one in the high-level kingdom of the kingdom wants to directly seize his ownership of the island. In the face of the great interests, the so-called commitment and credit are not binding in the slightest.

Many people, even Queen Your Majesty, may be greatly sighed in relief by their choices.

So Alwin finally made a land swap with the kingdom.

Then acquires a new continent, a large tract of land immediately north of Far Sail Territory – the Imperial Family Colony Georgia, rich in iron ore, coal and white oak trees, between Far Sail Territory and the self-governing colony of Charles Territory. The area has reached 100,000 square kilometers.

Alwin didn’t feel like he was at a loss.

If you choose a place as the foundation of a country’s development, ignoring all external factors, a vast continent with a pleasant climate is of course much stronger than an island country with limited resources.

The foundation of Phalatis and even the entire alliance is in the Tulip Islands. Whether it is the royal family or the great nobles as vested interests, the foundation of their rule for hundreds of thousands of years is here, and it is impossible to give up.

But for Alwin, that concern was entirely absent.

And he knew very well that it might not take several decades, after a large number of steam-powered ships went to sea and the logistical support network was gradually built.

By that time, the role of ocean currents is important, but they can no longer restrain those powerful steel ships.

After explaining to the girl on his back, Alwin smiled and said:

“60,000 square kilometers of land has been exchanged for 100,000 square kilometers of Georgia, plus a viscount title. , we still earned it. Hersey, we are also neighbors in the material world in the future, are you happy?”

Olivia of course knows that Georgia, which has not been developed for too long, has the current level of development. It is also in the lower middle of the six Imperial Family colonies. It is self-evident for whom Alwin chose to make his territory.

Wrapping her arms around Alwin’s neck, the girl answered earnestly, as if saying “I do” in a sacred ceremony:

“Happy!”

I have made up my mind to do my best to help Alwin develop the territory as soon as possible.

At the same time, an old father involuntarily led by Yuanfan shuddered.

As for the title that is a little lower than the territory, Alwin doesn’t care too much. Viscount Jerome, the leader of Ilya’s business aristocracy, has not controlled the political situation of that country together with Wright?

He is very clear about the thoughts of the senior management.

It just made him get huge economic benefits while excluding him from the center of the kingdom.

Whether it is a traditional aristocrat or a court aristocrat, the ancestors of the great characters of the dozens of kingdoms all started at least count.

After several shuffles and tens of hundreds of years of interest struggles, the interest pattern finally formed, and no one wants to have another tiger that eats meat.

Economic rights can be given, but political rights cannot.

Even the Aymore family, which is a marquis, has completely withdrawn from the core power circle, not to mention the boy who seems to be just lucky.

However.

Alwin still retains ownership of a port city on Ugol Island.

In any case, the development level of the new continent is still too low, and the value of this golden channel is still huge. when the time comes the combined forces of Garriott and Elmore are fully qualified to have a share of this feast!
