The first region in the world that openly accepted the Familia was not Vinaya, but the ice and snow kingdom of Dalyat in the north of the Minsk continent.
As early as more than two hundred years ago, when the power of the Orthodox Tribunal had not weakened, the judges of the Orthodox Tribunal were hunting down members of the underground church and the families of various evil gods everywhere. Even the royal families and nobles of other countries were in front of these judges.
In an era when there were no privileges, Dalyat resisted the pressure from the Orthodox Church and openly accepted immigrants from the family members.
The reason why Dalyat made such a shocking decision was mainly because the two great powers in the south, the Kingdom of Maris and the Kingdom of Saville, put too much pressure on it.
The great powers were annexed.
In the Minsk continent more than two hundred years ago, there were not the three countries of Dalyat, Maris and Savile as they are now. At that time, the three countries were only the three largest powers in the Minsk continent, among the three major powers.
It contains dozens of countries of different sizes.
The largest of these countries occupies more than a dozen cities and can compete head-on with the three major powers, while the smallest has only one city and feels more like a lord's territory than a kingdom.
This situation has been going on for a long time. After all, the first countries on the Minsk continent were independently formed from the pioneering ridges of the French Empire and hundreds of desert tribes. This continent has the largest number of countries.
At one time, it even reached more than 5,000.
However, this situation changed more than two hundred years ago. At that time, the Kingdom of Maris and the Kingdom of Saville launched a lightning offensive against the Minsk Mountains and the surrounding areas of the Guga Desert, which took less than a year.
All the surrounding small countries have been eliminated, reducing the number of countries in the Minsk continent from more than a hundred to three.
Dyliad, whose original strength was similar to that of the other two countries, suddenly felt that its strength had been stretched a lot. Dyliat's senior officials knew better that when the two southern countries digested the land and population they occupied, they would inevitably
Target it, and now it has no way to increase its national power in a short time.
Therefore, the kingdom's adviser gave the king an idea to grant residence rights to the dependents, allowing these dependents with special powers to serve the country, join the army, and resist foreign lands.
In the end, this policy was implemented, and achieved very good results in the subsequent Patriotic War. It could not help but repel the two southern kingdoms, and also pushed the territory of Dalyat hundreds of kilometers southward.
However, some of the shortcomings of this family immigration policy began to emerge, such as discrimination, such as the problem of the family being out of control, etc., which caused various turbulences within the Kingdom of Dalyat.
After his death and the new king's accession to the throne, he abolished this policy and closed the door for family members to immigrate.
However, even so, many dependents have settled down in the Kingdom of Dyliat, and it is still the kingdom with the largest number of dependents known to this day.
Like the current commercial ocean-going sailing ship that belongs to the Snow Queen, the people who control the ship are all members of the family, which is absolutely invisible in other places. However, to ordinary people, these crew members are also ordinary people, so there is no
Like Leo, he was surprised after learning about the actual situation of the sailboat.
The appearance of the entire ocean-going sailboat looks like a modified sea monster ship. The sea monster ship is the largest sail-powered ship in the world of Velen and the last masterpiece of the sailboat. The ship is nearly 700 meters long.
, there are eight levels of cabins, seven main masts, four main sails and three jibs respectively hung. In addition, there are fifty shooting holes on both sides of the hull dedicated to the use of giant mechanical crossbows.
Such a giant sailboat, which can be called a masterpiece, should have made a splash on the sea. However, during its first voyage, it encountered a large sea battle. The person directing the war happened to be a general who was very proficient in naval battles. He easily
I discovered that the flaw of this sea monster is that it is difficult to turn, and it takes more time than other ships.
The final result is self-evident. The monster ship was sunk on the first day of its voyage, and ships of this type were shelved.
But later, somehow this kind of ship was spotted by the Snow Queen, and she was rebuilt, modified, and incorporated into her private commercial fleet, becoming a unique logo of the Snow Queen Chamber of Commerce.
When Leo boarded the sailboat, he had already used his spiritual net to get a thorough understanding of the entire ship's situation and understood all the secrets of the ship.
The reason why Leo was able to master the secrets of this ship so easily is probably because when the Ice Queen was building this ship, she never thought that there would be a spiritual skill like the Spiritual Net that could easily scan the entire ship.
, and never expected that a wizard like Leo, who was proficient in the Gamore language, would be able to identify all the Turing roots and layout techniques on this ship.
However, it is more likely that the Snow Queen felt that even if someone could decipher all the secrets of the ship's operation, there would be no way to imitate it, because after Leo analyzed all the secrets of the ship's manufacturing and operation, he made a slight estimate of the manufacturing process.
The price of such a ship. If he invested all his current wealth, he might be able to build one. But the problem is that even if he has money, he will not be able to build it because he does not have enough psychic materials.
The biggest difficulty in building this strange ship is not the various Turing roots and divine runes scattered all over the surface of the ship. With Leo's current knowledge, he can easily draw these Turing roots and divine runes.
Substitutes can also be found. The real difficulty is where to find so many psychic materials with the same psychic wavelength.
When Leo uploaded it, he discovered that all the psychic materials in the entire ship were of the same wavelength. Whether it was the keel and deck used to build the ship, or the specially made bow statue and sails, they all emitted the same psychic wavelength.
And this completely unified psychic wavelength makes the psychic fluctuations of the entire ship very powerful.
If this ship is alive, then this ship is definitely a psychic creature with a psychic level of five or above. Put on the battlefield, such a psychic creature can already influence the situation of a naval battle.
However, it is obvious that not many people can truly understand the true power of this ship. Compared with such a sailboat, the ocean liner Miracle Star of Nova Shipping Company docked at the first pier not far away is ordinary people.
The wonders of the sea in your eyes, the huge sea monster that cannot sink.
In terms of single volume, the first pier with a total length of 4,000 meters must be cleared of all ships before this giant ship can dock. Moreover, the body of this giant ship cannot fully enter the pier, and one-third of it is exposed outside the pier.
in the sheltered bay.
In addition to its length, the nearly eighty-meter-high hull makes it look like a mountain, standing on the pier. Counting the chimney, the height reaches more than 100 meters, even in urban areas far away from the pier.
, and you can still see the ship’s seven huge chimneys standing tall.
Half a month ago, the publicity for the maiden voyage of the new star shipping company's giant ship had already been launched in the Port of Set. Not only the Port of Set, but also other port cities, inland cities, and even foreign countries in the Kingdom of England.
There was publicity for this maiden voyage.
So in the past two days, when this huge ship was docked at the port for repairs and waiting to set sail, the entire Port of Set was like a festival. Countless people from all over the country came here to look up at this great miracle, which can be called the world's highest technology.
The tickets for the high-class cabins were not sold to the public at all, but had already been booked by dignitaries from various countries. These dignitaries came to the Kingdom of England early and waited for the day of sailing. However, the tickets for the second-class cabins were sold out in less than half a day after they were put on sale.
Tickets for lower-level cabins are also being sold one after another, and the ticket price was once as high as three times the pre-sale price, and it is still difficult to get a ticket.
For everyone who bought a ticket, this Miracle Star's maiden voyage around the world is definitely something worth showing off for a lifetime, but in Leo's eyes, taking this Miracle Star is definitely not a good choice.
When Leo asked the butler to order a ticket to the Minsk mainland, the butler mentioned the Miracle Star's maiden voyage and also said that he could buy a high-class room. At that time, Leo felt something was wrong.
Because when he heard about this giant ship, he couldn't help but think of the stone city where Poseidon lived.
And now after seeing this giant ship with his own eyes, Leo was more sure of his previous feeling, because he felt an inexplicable force on this giant ship. This power was not radiated by the giant ship itself, but something like
An external force enveloped him. What was even weirder was that he could only vaguely feel this force, but he could not clearly see the details of this force either with his mental net or with his spiritual vision.
"It's really a miracle of the world, isn't it?" When Leo stood on the bow of the Snow Queen and looked at the giant ship in the distance, a rough and heroic voice came out next to him, followed closely by a waiting captain.
Hat, a bearded old man with a pipe in his mouth walked up to Leo, looked at the Miracle Star in the distance with envy, and said: "If I can have the opportunity to become the captain of that ship, command
If that ship sails once, I would be willing to die."
"In that case, you will really die." Leo turned his head and looked at the old captain of the Snow Queen, but did not say what he was thinking.
In Leo's mental network perception, this old captain who looks no different from an ordinary old man is actually a deeply mutated family member. He looks like some kind of insect, but because of his perfect skin,
Disguising his mutated state so that he doesn't look abnormal.
Although Leo didn't speak, the old captain couldn't help but feel guilty, and felt that the other party might have seen through his true situation, and this feeling was even stronger than when Leo boarded the ship this morning.
.
Just in the morning, Leo boarded the ship and scanned the entire ship through the spiritual network. At the same time, he also scanned the Familia crew members on the ship and roughly grasped some of the conditions of these Familia crew members.
Among these Familia crew members, the vast majority are hidden Familia, and they do not have any mutated state on their bodies. However, there are three people whose mutations have reached the complete state, and they have to use other means to cover up their monster appearance.
It's just that they all still maintain a rational state and are not affected by the mutation. If only one person is like this, it may be a coincidence, but if several people are like this, it means that the Ice and Snow Queen must have mastered a method that can prevent the family members from being affected by blood.
Methods.
However, due to some special reasons, they are very sensitive to external power fluctuations. When Leo used the mental network to scan them, they also felt something, but they didn't know what was going on. They just knew that it came from Leo.
Therefore, in the past few days, their attitude toward Leo was mostly to keep a distance. As long as Leo did not cause trouble to them, they would not restrain Leo.
It is very rare for the old captain to take the initiative to talk to Leo like today. Now that he has taken the initiative to talk, the old captain will naturally not give up. Feeling uncomfortable under the pressure, he said in a deep voice: "In an hour, we will sail.
,Is there anything else you need to buy here?”
"There's nothing to prepare." Leo responded casually.
"Uh..." The old captain wanted to say something more, but didn't know how to say it.
Seeing the old captain like this, Leo simply expressed his concerns for him and said, "You are worried about me causing trouble on the ship, right?"
"Ah?" The old captain didn't expect Leo to speak so directly. He was stunned for a while, then his face turned red and he said, "I am indeed a little worried, because the alarm in my room has not stopped since you boarded the ship.
, the power you possess can already pose a threat to this ship."
Leo looked down at the deck of the ship at his feet and asked doubtfully, "Can this ship think about problems and identify dangers like a living person?"
"Of course not." The old captain shook his head repeatedly, then stamped his feet and said, "It can only simply sense the degree of danger of the guests when they board the ship."
Leo shook his head. Unlike the old captain, Leo really found out all the secrets of the ship through the spiritual network. He also knew the function of sensing the status of boarders, and he even knew how to block it.
However, he heard from the old captain that the ship seemed to be able to automatically scan boarders, and could also proactively analyze the degree of danger and issue a warning to the captain.
Obviously, this ability is similar to low-level artificial intelligence. Leo did not find similar effects from the Turing root and other runes on the ship.
"Is there any secret that I haven't discovered?" A trace of doubt appeared in Leo's heart, but there was no abnormal expression on his face. Instead, he calmly said to the old captain: "I am just an ordinary ship passenger. I have reached my destination.
We will get off the boat and we won’t cause any trouble, don’t worry about that.”
