Chapter 284 The Royal Capital

The black collar gave Sean the feeling that it still hadn't grown to its final form, but the double-sized thunder tower had no obvious effect on it.

Sean couldn't help but wonder, if the thundering golden eagle wants to fully grow up, it must be struck by lightning?

However, for a period of time, Sean did not encourage Black Collar to make this dangerous attempt.

After all, the thunder tower is controllable. If something goes wrong, it can immediately cut off the energy transmission line and terminate it.

Natural lightning strikes, not to mention completely uncontrollable, and frighteningly powerful. If a mistake were made, a thunder would turn the black collar into a roasted eagle, and he would not even have a place to cry. After all, this manned helicopter is now the only one owned by Ashan.

, he hasn’t started enjoying it yet.

It’s better to wait until there is a substitute for this dangerous attempt.

In addition, Sean also went around with a black collar and went straight to the Sansett Giant Eagle's nest on Sansett Peak, killing its tribe.

The whole process went smoothly beyond imagination. Not only was Black Collar extremely cooperative, but the surviving Sangset Giant Eagle also couldn't muster the courage to resist in front of Black Collar. Black Collar only roared a few times, and the remaining Sangset Eagles

The Giant Eagle of Seth honestly lined up and returned to the northern fortress with it.

A total of eight Sansett giant eagles and seven Sansett giant eagle eggs were returned during this trip.

Those seven Sanset giant eagle eggs made Arnold feel like he had found a treasure, and he stuffed them all into the energy reaction chamber, hoping to see if he could directly hatch a young thundering golden eagle.

If it succeeds, the growth process will not be as troublesome as a black collar.

Together with the four Sanset Giant Eagles that Sean and the others had previously captured, all twelve were kept in captivity in the Northern Fortress.

However, in a short period of time, there is no possibility for them to be domesticated and join the leadership of the Eternal Night Army.

Because compared to black collars, they are embarrassing in terms of size and ability.

It certainly can't carry people. It can barely carry a half-grown child and it won't fly very far, so it doesn't make much sense.

There is no aerial combat these days, and even if it is completely domesticated, there is no opponent.

As for the ground, despite the fact that they were able to tangle with Skullcrusher McGee, Baozi and Arnold, two champion knights and a great knight, it was because the leader of the Eternal Night Army had the intention of catching him alive at the beginning.

Didn't prepare too many long-range attacks.

If they arrive at the military formation and they dare to charge down, an archer from the Hundred Guards will teach them how to be an eagle.

Their greatest use now is either to awaken under the stimulation of the energy reaction chamber, or to keep laying eggs to see if any of their offspring can start the road back to ancient times.

The possibility of the former is basically unlikely. They have been hovering over the northern fortress for more than half a year. If they had awakened, they would have awakened long ago. They would not wait until now. It would be more interesting to see the fate of their descendants.



Valesta.

The capital of the Byron Alliance.

Known as the brightest pearl in the Ashan continent.

It is called the center of the world, at least the people of Valesta firmly believe that, as long as they are not born within the walls of the royal capital, they will despise them as country bumpkins, including the five satellite cities that guard it.

But they do have something to be proud of, because Valesta has created many bests.

Asshan is the oldest city in recorded history, with a history of more than two thousand years.

It is Saya of the Elf Empire and Valletta of the Ancient Andis Empire.

At that time, although it was not a royal capital, it was an outright military town.

This is determined by its geographical location.

Whether it is the center of Ashan is still debatable, but it is definitely the center of the Asia Minor plain. It is like a giant squatting on the bank of the Jacob River.

While firmly holding the plains of Asia Minor in his hands, he looked down at the Carthusian military leader, with his back against the Broken Vein Grassland, his left shoulder carrying the Twin Peninsula, and his right shoulder holding the Manyu military leader.

Whether it is the Elf Empire or the Ancient Andis Empire, or the Yang or Byron Alliance, they are all agricultural civilizations. Food farming occupies an absolute core position. Controlling food naturally means controlling the entire empire.

At its peak, the Ancient Andis Empire had four major granaries, but there were still problems of size, geography and transportation.

Needless to say, Huayu Plateau, its unique geographical factors determine that it can only be self-sufficient no matter what age it is.

Although there was a water transportation line from the Donau River to the Jakob River in the Jiangnan Plain at that time, the transportation was quite convenient, but when it came to transportation, freight would be incurred, especially long-distance transportation, not to mention that there was also a Guan

Brisan, the imperial capital of the Dis Empire, needs support, and a lot of food will flow here.

The situation of Manyu Military Leader is similar, but its main support is in the direction of Odin Steppe.

As the first of the four major granaries, the Asia Minor Plain not only has the largest area, but also has the most places to support food. Not only the Carter military leaders, but also the Twin Peninsulas are in demand for food. It is just a question of quantity, so its status is naturally important. As the ruler of the Asia Minor Plain

Valesta is naturally a top priority.

Not only does it have an important military position, it is also an important economic thoroughfare. These military leaders have to pass through here when visiting each other.

The best of the other is the most populous.

It is the most populous city in Ashan. The recorded population alone exceeds one million, not to mention the large number of illegal households.

The huge population base is destined to be the busiest city in the world, the liveliest city, the city with the most nobles and nobles, and the city with gold flowing everywhere. It attracts countless Byron people to come to gold mining every year.

Gold mines were found here, and those who became masters were only a few among the few. Most people met with disgrace here and returned to their hometowns in despair. Some of them directly became its spacious underground tunnels.

One of them is slowly rotting here.

Therefore, in addition to these beautiful names, it also has some not-so-good names, including the city with the highest cost of living, a paradise for winners, a hell for losers, a city with the most complicated interpersonal relationships, and the most private transactions.

The city, the darkest city, the most luxurious city.

It is these many faces that constitute this living city.

Its fame and notoriety continue to spread far and wide, attracting all kinds of people to Valesta.

Among these many names, Valesta also has an inconspicuous name: the city of public opinion and fashion trends.

Needless to say, the latter is derived from the circulation of personnel and the largest number of lords and nobles.

Especially those aristocratic women who like luxury and comparison, leading the fashion of the entire Byronic League.

Although the Byronic League did not implement an imperial system, except for the Asia Minor plains which were directly under the royal family of Lancelot, it had very limited control over other military leaders.

But after all, they have a common enemy, the Odin Orcs. They also signed the Magna Carta and have common obligations and responsibilities. The Strachey family and the Lancelot royal family are basically one, advancing and retreating together. Lancelot

The royal family's voice is naturally the loudest, and many decisions here will directly affect the entire Byron Alliance.

Several other grand duke families have long been accustomed to this model. They all have their own ears and tongues here, and they can control the power game remotely.

The biggest hot topic in Valesta right now is the Baron Evernight who was recently consecrated by the Princess Regent and his force, the Evernight Army Commander.

There are too many areas of controversy.

First of all, who are Sean Don Augustine, the Baron of Eternal Night, and the leader of the Eternal Night Army?

She even asked the Princess Regent to confer the title herself. You must know that since Sophia became regent, the number of times new nobles have been conferred is very few. It would be unimaginable if she did not make a great contribution to the benefit of the entire Byron Alliance. She is even more committed to weakening the old ones.

The power of the nobles and nobles took back the power and land in their hands and implemented the New Deal.

The most important thing is that this Baron of Evernight seems to have jumped out of thin air. No one has heard of him before.

The name Yongye Army Leader also makes people confused when they first hear it.

Even the most ignorant farmer knows that when the Byron Alliance was first established, there were only eight military leaders, and there was no Eternal Night Army Leader among them.

It wasn't until someone revealed that he was an Andis from the Andes Mountains that people suddenly realized.

They are not unfamiliar with the Andis Mountains. After all, there is the Sanset Peak, known as the roof of the world. The war and mutual plunder between the Manyu military leader and the Andis people has lasted for many years. There are many Andis people.

The prisoners of war were taken as slaves and flowed to the plains of Asia Minor.

There were also large serf households here at that time. With the slave liberation movement, these Andis and their descendants gained their freedom and joined the Byron League as freedmen.

However, obtaining the status of official free people does not mean that they can fully integrate. The status difference formed by slave status for a long time will not simply disappear. Racial discrimination has always existed, which has caused those Andy

The Si people and their descendants are relatively close to each other.

I have always had a good impression of my hometown, the Andes Mountains, and it has not disappeared over time. On the contrary, it has continued to settle with the existence of racial discrimination. Many people often talk about it and make many admirers.

People in London heard this name by the way.

In addition to this, it was also because just a few years ago, they had just been talking about this name - because of Jacob Jiang Fuliu.

The reflow of the Jacob River has naturally had an impact on this place, and the disadvantages are minimal, while the rest are all advantages.

Because its geographical location is considered to be the middle and lower reaches of the Jacob River, when the flood peak reaches here, it no longer has the terrifying and destructive power. After all, due to the rainwater from the Asia Minor Plain, the river section here has not dried up. It has always been

An important lifeline of the Asia Minor plains, both for agricultural irrigation and transportation.

When the royal capital of Valesta was established, it was also when the Jakob River was at its peak. After its reflow, not only would it not have an impact on it, but on the contrary, its transportation would become more convenient and its economic status would rise.

Due to the surge in water flow and the rise in water levels, the Jacob River can once again use various large ships, and once again restored the scene of running east to west. Even some large ships can travel upstream from the Zambian Inland Sea and directly penetrate three miles inland.

More than a hundred kilometers long, this area directly became part of the coastline, and trade flourished.

The Andes Mountains, the source of the Jacob River, naturally became famous.

It's just that the Yongye Army leader has done a very good job of keeping its secrets. If it weren't for a thoughtful person like Sir Kleist, it would be really difficult to discover the pivotal role they played in this matter. Instead, most people would pay more attention to it.

Bet on the regent princess who makes big moves from the beginning.

Even though he is only three years older than Sean, it is natural that he has a distinguished life experience and brilliant achievements and is even more eye-catching.

What's more, the regent princess has indeed benefited a lot from it. Her territory has been completely integrated and connected through Jacob Jiang. In a short period of time, her status is unshakable.

When the leader of the Yongye Army gets used to the name of military leader and clearly wants to be on par with the other eight military leaders, it is inevitable that he will attract countless criticisms and criticisms.

Putting aside the fact that the current military leadership structure was established hundreds of years ago, how can you, a remote and remote wilderness, be qualified to keep pace with others and call yourself a military leader?

What does this mean?

Prepare to become the ninth military leader of the Byron Alliance? Become the ninth grand duke family?

But now you are the lowest baron, and you have sworn allegiance to the regent Princess Sophia.

Other grand ducal families are not happy either. Once this kind of precedent is set, it's okay. Is it possible that these grand ducal families will also have to swear allegiance to the Lancelot royal family in the future?

Even if the Yong Ye military leader is a self-proclaimed military leader, it won't work.

It is precisely because of these concerns that the title of Baron Eternal Night encountered far greater obstacles than Sophia expected when it was put into practice.

Up to now, Sean's title of Baron Evernight is still fake, because the last step of the canonization, registering the family coat of arms and logo in the Heraldry Court, has not yet been completed.

In the eyes of the orthodox Lords, if this step is not completed, there will be no legal benefit in the true sense.

Secondly, the entire process of canonization was too arbitrary and completely inconsistent with the previous prudence and solemnity. It was full of strong transactional flavor.

Those lords and nobles are not fools, so how could they not see the secret behind it? This is simply a matter of affiliation, and both parties do not need to perform their duties of loyalty at all.

The Byron Alliance gained almost nothing from this, but the Andis people became a part of the Byron Alliance in the name of the Eternal Night Army Leader.

This is definitely a bad trend. Once it starts and everyone follows suit, it's possible that those Odin orcs who are willing to be loyal to a certain family can also become part of the Byron Alliance.

Normally, the lords and nobles would take pleasure in poaching the Byron Alliance one by one, but this time they have become out-and-out loyal men, and each one is more capable than the other.

The reason is that they did not benefit from it.

The most critical step in the matter of Baron Yongye is stuck in the Heraldry Academy.

The House of Arms, as the name suggests, is the place where the coats of arms and emblems of all Lords and Nobles of the Byron League are registered. They faithfully record the rise and decline of each of the mainstays of the Byron League - the noble families.

Although this department is located in Valesta, it is not under the direct control of the royal family, but is jointly run by eight academicians.

The eight academicians represent the eight great ducal families. Only the most upright and selfless people from the eight great families can serve as academicians.

The power of this department can be said to be very small. Even the Qingshui Yamen may not necessarily have a few things done throughout the year. After all, the changes in a noble family take decades or even hundreds of years, and the entire Byron Alliance has

To say more or less, as for those knight families, they are not qualified to record them. If you want them to write, they must at least start as barons.

The power of this department can be said to be very great. If it does not pass their review, even if the regent princess personally speaks, it will not be used.

I don’t know if this is a common problem among government departments. The longer it is established, the more internal regulations there are and the more delays it takes to implement it.

As for the Heraldry Academy, which has existed since the establishment of the Byron League, it is even more decrepit, exuding an aura of decay from the inside out.

The Princess Regent had already submitted Baron Evernight's review for a year and three months, but it took less than half a year for the review to actually begin.
