"My king, the church has completed the reorganization according to your will. With the joint efforts of many monks and nuns, the congregation in the entire Fengying Plain believes that you are the incarnation of my god in the world, the inheritor of the blue dragon, and the future King of the Continent!"
Inside the Eagle Fort, the people from the church arrived the next day, and the archbishop saluted Wu Ming respectfully, with a humble gesture that had never been seen before: "I also brought new teachings and classics of the church, please my king advise."
"Um… "
Sitting on the throne, Wu Ming waved his hands casually, asking a servant boy to put away the bundle of sheepskin scrolls and thick books, and tapped the armrest intentionally or unintentionally with his index finger.
The regular sound and the unspeakable silence immediately made the archbishop's face sweat.
"The matter of Arthur and the sword in the stone... you already know!"
Wu Ming said in an affirmative tone.
"Yes… "
The archbishop bowed and answered, with bitterness in his voice.
For the church, both the Lionheart King and the Conqueror King are ancient kings. Even though they have a little prophecy ability, when it comes to such an important figure and the future direction of the world, even the archbishop himself dare not make a decision.
Therefore, the entire church maintained a delicate silence during the Battle of Eagle Castle.
It seems that they want to wait for the two heirs to the king to decide the final outcome.
It's just that even if they couldn't imagine it, the result would appear so quickly that they almost didn't even have time to react and show kindness.
After World War I, the inheritors of the Lionheart King were defeated by the King of Conquerors.
"Then what are you going to use to calm my anger?"
Wu Ming had a playful smile on his face.
Although the church is very useful now, at the critical moment, it should be beaten a few more times.
"We are willing to offer you several fragments of the "Book of the Sages" as a proof of surrender!"
As if he had already made up his mind, the archbishop took out a roll of parchment from his arms and handed it to the servant boy beside him.
"The Book of Sages?"
Wu Ming's eyes lit up slightly.
There were five kings in ancient times, and the great sage who established the university city was the most maverick among them. In his life, he never took the initiative to expand an inch of land, but used wisdom and sharing to bring together many federations and nobles. Attracted over, formed an alliance, with the title of 'Uncrowned King'.
He is also the only king who has not left a king's certificate.
It is rumored that in the last period of his life, the great sage recorded all his wisdom and knowledge in the "Book of the Sage", but because of competition, the book of the sage was scattered, and today's University City The scholars inside have kept most of the remaining pages, and have been pursuing the rest, with the greatest wish of collecting all the books of the sages.
The well-wrapped sheepskin scroll was opened, and there were several broken pages inside. The taste of the vicissitudes of history made Wu Ming know that the above was indeed an authentic work.
And based on the relationship between the church and the great sage, it is indeed very possible that there are a few broken pages in custody.
"I promise, my lord, these are the pages that suit you best!"
The Archbishop spoke with confidence.
Wu Ming pondered for a while, and then slowly spread out those few broken pages. Immediately, his pupils shrank slightly: "This is... a map of the Sear Continent?"
"good!"
The archbishop took a deep breath: "This is the era of the great sages. After traveling all over the world of Searle, the map of the continent drawn is the best in accuracy and proportion. It is also covered with a layer of magic power, which can automatically zoom in and out. To shrink each area, even with the strength of our church, it is impossible to print all the contents... "
'Can you keep zooming in and out? Satellite map? '
Wu Ming was also a little shocked in his heart, and a layer of hazy brilliance appeared on his hands.
Under his thoughts, the maps on those few broken pages began to enlarge or shrink according to his thoughts: "Although we can't see the real-time situation and are a bit outdated, just the directions of these mountains and rivers, as well as the continents The location of all cities is already a priceless treasure!"
The thoughts continued to magnify, and Wu Ming even directly found the Eagle Fort where he was, and the whole picture of the Death Canyon appeared in front of him.
If the Wellington family has this map, it is not impossible to find another passage in the mountains and try to bypass the natural danger.
"What about the Seer continent?"
Wu Ming's heart moved, and he continued to control the proportion. The whole world shrank at once, and finally condensed on the pages of the book.
The whole picture of Seer Continent suddenly appeared in front of him.
In the central hinterland of the entire continent is the vast and boundless Fengying Plain, and the highlands in the west are also very conspicuous.
In the southern part of the Fengying Plain, there are rugged mountains, with a large number of wild beasts and ogres raging. Even the most powerful caravan will have to spend more than several years to pass through it once, and more than half of it will be lost.
After crossing this land of death, you can go further south to the University City, which is composed of large and small aristocratic dominions and small federations. The political environment can be said to be the most relaxed in the entire continent, and there are a large number of free people and scholars. The university city founded by the great sage has great influence.
If you go east from Fengying Plain, there is a sea. On the many nearby island chains, Emerald Port is like a bright pearl in the deep sea. It is the largest port of call for all merchant ships and the settlement point for trade, and the owner is extremely rich.
In the last north, a large piece of wilderness emerged on the map, shaped like a horn. This is the Horn of Storms. It is rumored that in the extreme north of the Horn of Storms, there is an endless storm that spans the sky and the earth. Any scholar who sees that scene, They will regard it as the end of the world.
The storm warriors produced on the Cape of Storms are the best fighters and gladiators, and enjoy a high reputation in the continent of Searle.
There, the lordship system has changed, large and small tribes are distributed in the wilderness, and the chiefs and heads of the tribes are the most powerful. They follow the law of the jungle. In the eyes of many nobles, it is the most poor and barbaric wild land.
"Nice! You're doing a great job!"
A smile appeared on Wu Ming's face.
This map is almost an artifact in the hands of a king who intends to expand!
It was like the high ground that was about to be attacked. After just a few glances, Wu Ming determined the location of Lionheart City and worked out several marching routes.
He had had enough of the distorted maps and the imaginary returns from the scouts.
"My king, I hope you will unify the mainland as soon as possible. We need a unified empire to face the imminent catastrophe!"
The archbishop looked resolute, as if he had placed all bets on Wu Ming: "The glory knights of our church, as well as all the warriors and mercenary groups, are willing to fight for the blue dragon banner!"
"very good… "
For Wu Ming, it is beneficial and harmless to keep the church now.
He pondered for a while: "I'm already somewhat sure of the attack on the highlands. The key is the university city in the south. Can you influence the opponent's choice?"
"In the south, the union system and federal system prevail, and even the university city only has the right to make suggestions!"
The archbishop is very cautious in these matters: "I can write a letter so that scholars will try to accept your existence, but it will take time and some luck, you need to show them that you have the power to unify the entire continent! "
"This problem, after unifying the highlands, I will naturally show them."
The Fengying Plain is a well-known granary, and the professional knights and soldiers produced in the highlands are also well-known on the mainland. Although fighting alone will definitely not be the opponent of the Storm Warriors, but in the scale of the formation of the system, those who fight on their own The brutal and ferocious storm warriors are bound to suffer a crushing defeat!
The food in the Fengying Plain, together with the soldiers on the high ground, is a combination full of deterrence.
The Wellington family on the high ground has always been obsessed with invading the Fengying Plain for this reason.
It's just that the red lions couldn't imagine that the sheep led by a blue dragon defeated them easily.
"With the map and soldiers, the highlands are fearless, and the university city can't hinder me. Then tell me, where is our next enemy?"
There seemed to be flames in Wu Ming's eyes.
Even though the five ancient kings only conquered one or a few of these five regions, and ordered the nobles in other places to swear to submit, their actual ruling power is quite suspicious.
But what he wants is not this name, but the real rule!
"The Book of the Sages has been scattered, and there is no power to change the situation immediately. The only remaining enemies of my king are the Horn of Storms and Emerald Port...that is an area controlled by a group of barbarians and businessmen. But they don't know the way of union, the latter can only make money, for Jin Delong, he can sell his own sword... "
"And the storm scepter passed down by the Storm King and the cloak passed down by the Emerald Queen have long since disappeared, without any clues... It is difficult even for a king to unite these two disjointed places."
The archbishop answered frankly.
It seems that this is the reason why he has really taken refuge recently.
After defeating Arthur, Wu Ming is almost certain to unify the entire continent!
"Storm scepter, emerald cloak?"
Wu Ming silently chewed on the names of the last two certificates of kingship: "I have a hunch...they will definitely appear before the imminent catastrophe, but...no matter who the new king is, he has no time!"
The key to fighting for hegemony in the world is to strive to be the first step by step and occupy the general trend.
The highlands were defeated in the first battle, the elites were completely lost, and they were completely powerless to resist. The remaining three regions were also in a mess, and it was extremely difficult to unite.
With this opportunity, Wu Ming can calmly clean up the high ground, and finally integrate the forces of the two places to defeat the other resisters one by one.
This has almost formed a general trend of snowballing, and no one can stop it!
