Chapter 401: The Former Denisoa
Salvatore frowned, put the cigar he had just lit to his mouth, and carefully flipped through the paper handed in by Longjing Tea.
He had never smoked before.
Because of the curse [Sleepless Reflection], Salvatore was forced to stay up late every day, and could not sleep until 3 a.m. He can only sleep for six hours a day at most, and he is on the verge of sudden death at any time.
Whether it was cigarettes or alcohol, he didn't dare to touch it. Those stimulant-type transformation products, he only dared to take those with lower side effects and stronger tonic repair ability for the body.
After all, he couldn't catch up on sleep.
Salvatore's biggest problem.
The difference now is that he has successfully advanced to become an alchemist.
His cigar was a spell he had made for himself. It was not tobacco leaves, but an unknown medicine that he had refined to repair the body.
The ancient profession of "alchemist", which is a silver rank, has not been completely eliminated until modern times, and it obviously makes sense.
A large part of the reason for the rise of transformation wizards is because the transcendents of the "blood service" era will be easily hunted if they do not have enough self-protection ability.
Especially in that era, except for the Duchy of Winter, which was founded by the people of the Winter family in an instant because the old grandmother was still sleeping, and the Cult Kingdom, which gathered a large number of righteous gods and thus easily supported the small enchantment, the old rule in other places had completely collapsed.
At that time, the Church had not yet established Sky City, and many churches were huddled together on the ground. The mutual conquest and crusade between the Orthodox Churches alone is enough to make the church a mess.
And the Duchy of Winter...... No one will go.
Even vegetable resources are very scarce in the Duchy of Winter, especially during the winter years. The Winters even had to eat a lot of the raw flesh of the Frost Beast to replenish their vitamins, not to mention the blizzard that enveloped the entire territory.
At that time, many of the Winters were forced to flee from the Duchy of Winter and became mercenaries of other countries. A large part of the winter bloodline that remains in other countries today comes from this historical background.
The transcendents can only go to the territory of Silver Sir and Yaon.
At that time, Sir Silver resided in the capital of present-day Noah, and Sir Silver resided in the capital of the Kingdom of Denisoa. Therefore, the remnants of the transcendents immediately began to strangle each other around the two places here.
But at that time, the kingdom of Noah was not established at all, and Denisoa was still a principality. It was not so much a conquest of various countries for territory as a brutal "war of expulsion".
In addition, there was no underground federation at that time, and the wise men were very clearly aware that after a large amount of land subsidence and the collapse of the Great Enchantment, it would instantly lead to a shortage of resource varieties. The restrictions of the gray fog and the enchantment will limit the ability of the people in each enchantment to communicate with each other.
The resources after that may not be enough to keep everyone alive at that time.
Therefore they need a war.
Use war to relieve population pressures...... Redistricting of tenure of habitable land.
It was a war that required little to no prisoners. It was also the world's first war that did not aim at resource plundering and population plundering.
Even if the warlords on all sides know that eventually everyone may gradually merge, the fewer people left of the enemy, the better the life of the friendly people will be, and the higher the power of the friendly side.
"Winter" has irreplaceable significance, because they are the only ones who can tame the Frostbeast, and the Frostbeast is the only ration in winter.
The original "Noah" had extraordinary political wisdom, persuasion, deception, betrayal, alliance, and finally established his rule with absolute military superiority under perfect operation.
Eventually, the Church established the "Chapel of Purity", in which the pope of the seven gods took turns as pope instead of a separate king.
At that time, the Grand Duke of "Denisoa" established himself as queen at the first time. voluntarily relinquished most of the powers that had belonged to the king and established the Privy Council.
In the "Denisoa Privy Council" system, the Privy Council is divided into three levels: "Advisory Council", "Committee" and "Member Council".
Among them, the "chief adviser" is appointed by the contemporary pope of Jaon, who has the right to select several people from the committee to serve as advisers each year; "Members" and "members" can roughly correspond to members of the upper and lower houses, who have the power to propose and amend certain bills. After the proposal proposed by the member council is passed, it needs to be passed by the committee and entered the advisory board; Bills proposed by the Committee can go directly to the Advisory Board.
The powers of the advisers were greatly enhanced, including the core ministers of foreign affairs, finance, national defense, culture and education, and justice, all of which were selected only from among the advisers, and the council of advisers could pass or veto a law without passing the king, as long as the majority agreed. The only power reserved by the king was to "remove advisers", and in other cases the king was only on an equal footing with other advisers.
- The first advisors, on the other hand, were chosen directly from the native nobility. It can also be purchased with sky-high funds.
There is no doubt that Grand Duke Denisoa directly betrayed his existing political power.
His aim was to use a portion of the power that might be taken away from him as a bait to end the war as quickly as possible, rather than trying to preserve and consolidate his precarious power as the new king during the war.
This seemingly thirst-quenching change allowed Grand Duke Denisoa to instantly gain the support of many of the great nobles in the original principality who were originally opposed or neutral, and raised a huge amount of money in a short period of time.
He then used this huge amount of money, or the quota of the "advisory council", to bribe the nobles of other countries to buy intelligence or ask them to betray at a critical moment; They also used the quota treatment of the "committee" to go to home and abroad to collect a large number of extraordinary and outstanding technical and military talents, and then used the "member council" to collect outstanding veterans, workers, and businessmen.
The betrayal of a large number of nobles and transcendents, as well as the betrayal that may be faced at any time in the future, made Denisoa panic in front of him, and there was no one enemy. And the nobles who defected to Denisoa also entered the committee.
In the end, the kingdom of Denisoa was initially formed.
Because of the decisiveness of Grand Duke Denisoa, they were the fastest country to end the bloody war and establish a stable rule. Because of this, they suffered the least losses in the end, and even concentrated more talents than the Catholic Nation.
As for the submission of the Fields Islands, it was after the end of the blood service.
And the transcendents who are unwilling to join, or even simply hostile to Noah and the Denisoa family, have only one final place to go after the establishment of the Noah Kingdom and Denisoa.
That's underground.
At that time, the underground world was a forbidden place where there were no moral laws to speak of.
The current legacy of the Transforming Wizard was formed in the early days of the Blood Service - in order to be able to play a role in the Legion War, in order to be able to form combat effectiveness when alone. The inheritance of the "alchemist" was completely outdated at that time.
But for Salvatore...... "transformation wizard" is outdated, and even a little off the original path.
The core idea of the school of transformation is to create what is not what is out of what is already there.
And today's transformation wizards......
How long has it been since a new invention has been made?
Decades have passed, and almost all of them are improvements of old inventions.
There was a time when many new inventions were made every year, but no more.
Salvatore didn't know how far he could go......
- He just didn't want to, he just threw in the towel before he tried.
