The Idar people have already begun to pack their bags and prepare to leave.

so……

Today, Salazar naturally does not need to lead the soldiers of the Principality of Idar, nor does he need to go to the forest near the city-state to have a series of friendly exchanges with the mutants.

After saying hello to the Idar soldiers who were already familiar with him, Salazar happily walked out of the house, opened his arms, and let the pale golden sunshine shine on his body.

The sun in the sky was still the same, and the temperature outside was quite cold, but after receiving Captain Hausen's promise, Salazar suddenly felt that his whole person had become different.

That's the Principality of Idar!

A powerful and mysterious country on the other side of the ocean!

Although Salazar's understanding of the Principality of Idar only came from a few words from the soldiers of Idar, even this was enough to make him deeply curious about the Principality of Idar, and even longing for it!

Because according to the description of the Idar soldiers, the Principality of Idar is simply a paradise on earth!

The Lighthouse of Alexandria stands in the Merlin District, the Fortress of Namur stands on the banks of the Solon River, and the hanging gardens built on the mountain...

These magnificent buildings are all symbols and proof of the great strength of the Principality of Idar!

Through conversations with Salazar, the Idar people learned about the many differences in this continent.

And Salazar also heard about the magical land located on the other side of the ocean while communicating with the Idar people.

According to the Idar people, although the Principality of Idar is only a vassal of the Norman Empire in name, it is actually a completely independent principality and the only powerful country on that continent with the ability to sail across the ocean.

The Idar people have three-masted warships that can navigate the sea, magic artillery that can destroy the world, and a well-trained and powerful army.

besides,

There is also delicious white bread, the work-point system created by the Stuart family, and a fair and honest administrative organization...

And more importantly...

The Idar people don't have to worry about the existence of mutants, and they don't have to worry about their own life and death all the time, because there... there are no mutants at all!

As an indigenous resident living in the Forsaken Land, Salazar's hatred for mutants is almost engraved in his bones.

His parents, his friends...

Those who were close to him almost all died at the hands of mutants.

Not only Salazar, but almost all the indigenous residents have had relatives and friends killed by the fangs and claws of mutants in their life trajectories.

Perhaps it is for this reason that after seeing the Idar people's powerful power that could easily kill mutant species, the local indigenous residents naturally felt a kind feeling toward the Idar people.

so……

When he thought that he might be able to become a member of the envoys and follow the Idar ships to see the world on the other side of the ocean, Salazar suddenly felt a burst of joy in his heart.

This sentence is a rare opportunity!

Thinking of this, Salazar not only accelerated his pace, but also walked towards the center of the Padilla city-state.

He wanted to report this exciting news to the elders on the body of elders as soon as possible.

…

Standing alone on the terrace on the second floor of the house, Captain Howson watched Salazar's figure disappear at the end of the street from a distance.

Inviting the envoys from the Padilla City State to visit the Principality of Idar was Captain Hausen's final decision after weighing it several times.

This not only shows the people of the Padilla city-state that the Principality of Idar is willing to live in peace, but it is also Captain Hausen's choice for the upcoming expansion plan.

As the commander-in-chief of Idar's ocean-going fleet, Captain Hausen shoulders a much heavier task than it appears on the surface.

For example...

Captain Howson's experience and knowledge, as well as the suggestions he made to Bruno Stuart, Duke of Idar, will greatly affect the development of the entire Forgotten Land by the Principality of Idar.

As early as when Captain Howson led the three-masted warship of the Idar Navy to set sail, Bruno had met Captain Howson alone and explained many matters about the Forgotten Land.

The choice of expansion plan is undoubtedly an important issue.

Different colonial expansion policies will have completely different impacts on the future of the Principality of Idar.

Even the expansion methods and governance policies adopted by the same country in different locations are very different.

For example, in Bruno's previous life, John Bull's form of rule over colonies such as India was somewhat similar to ancient China's policy of restraint, appointing local officials and dignitaries to preserve the culture, habits and social structure of local residents.

As for the American continent, John Bull moved more businessmen, soldiers, craftsmen, missionaries and other people from various industries to settle in the colonies. However, this colonial method also had significant shortcomings.

That is, when the colonial power is weak, the sovereign country can still exercise long-arm jurisdiction; but if the strength of the colony gradually increases, it will be difficult for the descendants of the first batch of colonists to have national identity with the sovereign country, and independence will become a

The final choice.

The distance, the needs of the home country, the development level of the colony...

The above are all issues that need to be taken into consideration.

Moreover, Bruno had mentioned relevant issues to Captain Howson long before he arrived in this land.

Perhaps it is because Bruno himself lived in a peace-loving country before traveling through time, and he does not like blindly killing or looting.

As a subordinate of Bruno, Captain Howson was naturally deeply influenced by his own Duke.

Since in this land on the other side of the ocean, mutant species are the primary enemy in the eyes of mankind, then Captain Howson will naturally not start an internal strife and wield a butcher knife against his own people.

Assimilate the indigenous residents living on this land quietly, let them spontaneously fall into the arms of the Idar Principality, and eliminate the threats hidden deep in the dense forest under the leadership of the Idar people. This is...

Captain Howson's truest thoughts today.

"If the rulers of Padilla City-State are smart people, they will naturally understand that only by joining the Principality of Idar can they have a bright future..."

The adjutant on the side pondered for a moment and said: "But if they don't want to..."

"Then except for the ruler of this city-state, all the indigenous residents living in this city-state will have a bright future..."

Looking at the city-state in front of him, Captain Hausen said calmly.

…

The residence of the Elders is located in the center of the city-state, next to the largest market in the Padilla city-state.

only……

Unlike the market in the Principality of Idar, it is no longer easy to survive smoothly on this continent that is invaded by mutants.

Therefore... weeds and fruits in the forest, captured prey, and simple weapons for self-defense are the most important goods in the trading market.

The teeth of the mutant species acted as currency here, becoming hard currency in the market.

no way,

Different external environments create completely different social conditions.

In this land, only those with the ability to fight against mutants can be considered to have the capital to survive.

The stronger the warrior, the higher social status and more wealth he will naturally obtain.

As for the mage...

The situation in the Forsaken Land is completely different from that of the continent where the Principality of Idar is located.

Here, divine power and magic are intertwined and mixed. Even newborns with magical talents have difficulty applying magic effectively. The time for chanting spells increases exponentially.

so……

Compared to mages, powerful warriors are more respected.

If you want to make money, the most convenient way is to hunt mutants!

The teeth of mutant species are also the only "currency" accepted by all city-states on this continent.

The market in front of you is bustling with people,

only,

At this time, Salazar had no intention of wandering around in the market. He walked straight through the crowd without stopping at all, and hurriedly opened the door of the elders' residence.

After Salazar recounted today's conversation with Captain Howson in front of the three elders, the reactions of the three elders present were almost exactly the same as his reaction at that time.

"Invite five envoys to...the Principality of Idar?"

Listening to Salazar's description, the three old men in front of them couldn't help but feel slightly moved.

"The Principality of Idar...is really on the other side of the ocean?"

The one who spoke was the old man sitting in the middle, who was the most respected elder in the entire body of elders.

The Great Elder's full name is Sherman Goldberg. Although he was not the most powerful warrior in the city-state when he was young, he was the most flexible one among all the people.

It was also under his leadership that the indigenous residents of the Padilla city-state began to try to set traps to explore the living habits and group size of mutant species, so that when the beast tide arrived every spring, they could make more decisions in advance.

Be fully prepared.

That’s right! Beast tide!

The word beast tide is the nightmare in the hearts of all the indigenous residents living on this land.

On this continent, although the cold winter is difficult to survive, this season is often the most relaxing time for everyone.

because……
