The continent of Chalkekinia was completely messed up by Amata Meima.
This 'Zero Demon World' has not seen a world war of this magnitude for thousands of years.
This can be seen from the fact that they have developed for nearly six thousand years, but their magic and technology are still so backward, and their population has not even grown.
After all, war is the catalyst for civilization and progress.
The main reasons are believed to be three points according to Mr. Xiu's research.
The first point is the unity of belief.
As mentioned before, except for the elves, all the kingdoms on the continent believe in the ‘ancestor’ Brimir.
This belief has already reached the point of being deeply rooted in the hearts of the people under the consolidation and maintenance of the Papal State of Romania.
They even hold the power and qualifications to confer royal authority.
The second point is that the level of magic is fixed.
It seems that only those who have a certain blood relationship with the 'ancestor' Brimir, that is, the nobles, can master the power of magic, which leaves the common people without the ability to fight against the nobles.
Maybe someone has tried it before.
That’s why we have thermal weapons like the current ‘flintlock’ and ‘breech-loaded artillery’.
But it is obvious that they have not continued to develop, but have remained at this level of being slightly useful, but still lagging behind compared to magic.
Why?
Because there are also wise people among the nobles of the past dynasties!
The last point is that of the five kingdoms on the continent today, the ancestors of three royal families are the sons of Brimir, the "ancestor", and the first pope of Romania was a disciple of Brimir, the "ancestor".
In other words, only the Kingdom of Garmania came into being later.
certainly.
There are actually many principalities and princes on the mainland, but their land area is too small and their national power is too weak, so they are not worth mentioning.
That in this case.
The so-called international situation has completely become a family matter of the 'Blimire family' for a long time. Even if there are occasional conflicts, it will not lead to a big fight.
Even if someone lost his mind during this period, the popes of the past generations would be responsible for mediating or punishing them.
So this is an extremely depressing and desperate world for the common people, because the nobles have not given them any way to rise.
The highest status that civilians can achieve is that of captain in the army.
Forget about knights, generals and the like.
However, there is a special exception in everything, and that is Captain Anies, who leads the gunners team and serves as Queen Henrietta's bodyguard.
This woman with short blond hair and a majestic temperament has mastered the accuracy of the fire gun to the point where she can hit it with perfect accuracy.
Coupled with his superb swordsmanship, his strength is enough to easily defeat any magic knight below the 'Triangle' level.
But how many geniuses are there at this level?
----Dividing line----
United Harbar Romanian Empire.
The geographical location of this religious country is exactly the same as the Italian Peninsula, so this world can be regarded as a parallel world.
It's just that there is a small red moon in the sky and an extraordinary system like magic.
"Your Majesty, why do we allow those kingdoms to kill each other?"
Giulio looked at Pope Vittorio St. Rebare St. Aegis XXIII, who was sitting on the throne with confusion, and was also his master.
Yes.
This handsome-looking young man with blond hair, wearing white clothes and a blue cloak, but with one red and one blue eyes, is actually a familiar of nothingness summoned from another world just like Hiraga Tateto.
And His Majesty the Pope, who has the same golden hair but long straight hair, is naturally a void user!
"Hey - Giulio, I once told you that our world is on the verge of doomsday, and the only way to save all people is to take back the 'Holy Land' occupied by the elves, and then open the 'Gate to the World' there to invade the other side.
A world, and occupy a land that can survive in that world..."
Pope Vittorio spoke slowly and with a heavy expression, while Giulio stood at the bottom of the hall and listened silently.
"But the elves are very powerful. Their magic and their warships are far superior to our human kingdom. So if we want to achieve the first step goal or even the second step goal, we must unite the power of all kingdoms.
.....”
"I originally wanted to find an opportunity to hold an alliance meeting, but the actions of the Kingdom of Albion made me think of another possibility!"
Pope Vittorio looked at Giulio with burning eyes.
"Just let a certain kingdom unify the human countries of the entire continent. This can also concentrate all the power, and it should be more cohesive than a loose alliance..."
After hearing this, Julio suddenly understood and finally understood what the other party was thinking.
"But Your Majesty, not only will this cause countless casualties, but a kingdom that unifies all countries will definitely threaten our Romania's status."
When the power of royal power is far greater than that of divine power, is royal power still willing to squat under divine power?
However,
Pope Vittorio calmly asked back: "The world is going to be gone, why do you care about this?"
"this......"
Giulio was speechless, and then he heard the other person say in a low voice:
"As for those who died during the reunification process, it can only be said that they are necessary, otherwise everyone will face death, and we can only choose to save most people."
Giulio couldn't refute, because he knew that the "Wind and Stone Disaster" did exist.
Now, in some parts of the continent, there has been a terrifying phenomenon of cracks in the ground, and then automatically floating into the sky.
I believe it will become more serious in the future, and eventually the entire continental plate will fall apart and become empty islands or fragments like the Kingdom of Albion.
At that time, the original natural ecology will completely collapse, and many more people will die than in the current war!
After a while.
Giulio asked again in confusion: "In that case, why don't we help a certain kingdom?"
"Because we are a religious country and a neutral country, and I can't see which kingdom can unify the continent, so it is better to let it go..."
Pope Vittorio answered him in a faint tone, and then gave instructions to Giulio.
"But I need you to go to the Kingdom of Tristeyn to ensure the safety of the void user named Louise. She is needed whether it is to open the 'Gate to the World' or to conquer another world later.
Void magic!"
"I see......"
Giulio nodded, then swung his blue cloak and strode away from this magnificent cathedral with buildings made of gold and emerald everywhere.
"Honorable 'Ancestor' Brimir, please have mercy on your descendants, so that we can successfully thrive in another world..."
Pope Vittorio closed his eyes and prayed sincerely in his heart the words he had recited countless times.
As the only person in the world who knows the information about the end of the world, the pressure on him is unimaginable by others.
Because he is the pope, he wants to save all people.
Even if it requires sacrificing tens of thousands of people for this, he will not hesitate to invade other worlds for this!
