"Battleships are going to be used? Could it be that those nobles really intend to rebel? ”

After Joshua heard Israel's murderous words, he felt a little strange, he frowned, and said to the person on the other side of the light curtain: "It's just the spread of transcendent knowledge, the popularization of magic, fighting spirit, and rune knowledge, even the most radical nobles will not rebel because of this." ”

"You think I'm just going to deal with a certain group of people?"

Israel shook his head: "Don't talk about strength, I'm still an emperor after all, although I don't have absolute control over the local nobles who are divided, but they won't set off a rebellion against me for this kind of thing, the orcs and dragons have just passed, and the anti-war forces of both the army and the people are also very large, and it is impossible for them to gather the army." ”

"What I'm worried about is the covert sabotage by those who have been robbed of the right to speak and the right to interpret extraordinary powers, and the new floating warship is just a suppressive force to maintain order in the possible chaos."

To this explanation, Joshua nodded, and as soon as he said this, he understood.

The so-called right to speak and interpret is, in a sense, power. The core power of religion is the right to speak and interpret things such as gods, the afterlife, the future and miracles, and those who collect money through the imparting of supernatural power and gather their own power to become local emperors are to gain benefits for themselves through the right to speak and interpret supernatural powers. The great nobles may be afraid of the power of the three legends of Israel, Nostradamus and Joshua to raze the earth, but these little people are not afraid, after all, they will not fight head-to-head, but will only use fraud, incitement and all kinds of trickery to stir up the situation and add trouble to everyone.

But as soon as the floating battleship appears, any chaos and trouble will be solved—under the absolute violence that hovers over the city, no one will dare to think carefully, and even the brave will not be able to find other accomplices.

- It is just a reminder that this kind of violent rule by extreme power cannot be sustained for long.

Joshua originally thought that this method was a bit too tough, but if you think about it carefully, the Northern Empire was originally a feudal centralized and dictatorial empire, and the mainstream gods it believed in were also gods of power and justice - so it seems that for the people of the empire, this method is probably very ordinary.

Israel's matter was almost finished, and he came to communicate, just to inquire about Joshua's recent whereabouts, and by the way, to tell it about the changes in the abyss during this time, and now that he knew the reason, then His Majesty the Emperor still had many things to do.

"Adrian seems to be still in your place, some of the elf cards he has been working on recently are selling very well in aristocratic circles, and Baron Deriman gave me a limited Deluxe Collector's Edition card table yesterday...... It's not easy for young people to do something, Joshua, the next time you meet Adrian, tell him not to come back in a hurry, I let him out just to let him do his own business. ”

Before leaving, Israel said to Joshua that he, the father, seemed to be very concerned about the whereabouts of the Six Princes.

"I'll tell you." Joshua agreed earnestly. As for the leprechaun cards...... He only remembered the embarrassing appearance of the two legendary mages playing cards and cheating on each card, and he didn't remember anything else.

And after Israel, on the other end of the light curtain, it was Master Nostradamus. Originally, in the Star World, the old mage's hair that had returned to his middle-aged appearance turned pale again, but the wrinkles on his face did not rise back, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and after seeing Joshua, he said in a rather relaxed tone: "Joshua, you and Israel have talked so much, and I, an old man, don't talk much nonsense...... The two best mage academies under the Guantian White Tower recently said that they want to send a group of students to us for exchange and study, exchange magic and various aspects of technical research with each other, this is a matter in your territory after all, if you want it to happen, you still need to speak. ”

"As long as it's not a spy, it's all easy to say."

Joshua simply agreed, he has always had a positive attitude towards technical exchanges, there is no future behind closed doors, even if the species is hybridized better, ideas, inspiration and technology are no exception.

After a little discussion about the exchange plan with the Academy of the Guantian White Tower, Joshua closed the light curtain amid the old mage's farewell.

"It's almost done."

He let out a long breath, and then thought in his heart, "The ancient dragon blood was also transferred to Number 3 just now, and she will give it to Ciel and Fina, and I can probably really rest for a while to settle down and digest the recent harvest." ”

Joshua recalled the extremely fulfilling five years since he came to the Mycrof continent in 831, and couldn't help but sigh long: "I have been playing for almost five years in a row, and I have never rested, although it is very cool, but in order to ensure that there is no complete state without any dark injuries and dead ends, I must also conduct a thorough rest and self-examination." ”

Anyway, the dragon plague has been extinguished, the cultists have disappeared, the earth god cult has fallen apart, the flames have been rekindled, the abyss demon is now estimated to be too busy to take care of itself, the evil god is still decades away from the McCrof world, plus because of the appearance of the Ten Thousand Worlds Sacrifice Ground...... Now there are almost no big things for the warriors to make a move, and everyone is looking forward to the future development, so that the whole world can be divided a lot.

Because of Joshua's all-out fighting and hard work in the past five years, the Mycrof Continent, which is known as the never-ending strife, has really entered a rare period of peace, but I don't know how long this precious peace can last.

"In short, it's okay not to make any big news, just be an ordinary earl and manage the territory."

In this way, Joshua made up his mind about his future period.

So, two months later.

A huge humanoid steel statue resembling a certain lord suddenly appeared in the outer city of New Moldavia overnight, just south of the city, and shocked the whole world.

This huge statue depicts a certain armored warrior standing with a sword, the length and width of its base alone exceed 120 meters and 80 meters respectively, and the height reaches an incredible 280 meters...... Regardless of the large amount of materials used, this kind of technology is leading even in the whole world.

In this regard, the local residents were naturally shocked and cheered, they were quite emotional, the lord of the northern land finally remembered that his territory needed a landmark building, and praised all the details of the magnificent statue - Moldavia, as a new big city, compared with other traditional big cities, is worse than some heritage and fame, and now, the sudden appearance of the huge lord statue undoubtedly makes up for this shortcoming, so that the local residents have the capital to brag after going out.

And a certain lord was rubbing his forehead in distress in the hall of his lord's mansion at this time.

"Damn, it's all the fault of No. 3 and Hotaru before, and it was accidentally too big...... It's just that there is a little distraction in the mind, and the deviation is so big. ”

He looked at the steel power mist in his hand with considerable concern: "It seems that there is still a long way to go to reach the point where you can create a heart of fusion core in a single thought." ”

In the lord's mansion, the rest and cultivation of the warriors continued, and at this time, in the north of the Winter Castle Academy, in the dazed sea, in a small camp.

The cold wind beat the skin walls of the tent back and forth, and the cold frost and snow particles passed through the cracks and threw themselves into the pyre in the tent, and the already dim flames suddenly began to sway and hiss, and five young men with serious faces sat by the fire, staring at the flames that were about to be extinguished.

They wore black windproof cloaks of Wintercastle Academy, with swords, staffs, quivers, and longbows hanging from their waists and backs, and runes on the iron blocks on their cuffs flashed, as if sending a message to the distance.

These five people are the five registered disciples that Joshua has accepted before, the human brothers and sisters Ivan, Amira, and their hundred dragons, the dwarf Nick, the knight's daughter Karin, and the Seventh Prince of the Empire, Alva, who has only recently joined this team. These five are all senior students at Wintercastle Academy, and they have much more free time to master than the heavy theoretical courses of previous years, and many teachers have stopped teaching the basics, but have issued many practical tasks and topics, so that these students can experience the power of extraordinary power in the midst of combat and the threat of nature.

Now, the team of five has been tasked by a dragon trainer to come to the dazed sea at the end of the world to find the exact location of the South Magnetic Pole, which is gradually changing.

Because the flames are rekindled and the world recovers, the original stagnant world magnetic field begins to gradually change, and the change of the magnetic pole is one of them, the original Moldavia, in fact, can not see the aurora, but now in Moldavia, as long as the lights in the city are not bright enough, then you can often see the turquoise or golden aurora swaying in the sky. There is no doubt that this is a major event that can affect the entire world, and it is extremely important information for many mages who study the structure of the world itself.

Although it is said that the two deans of Wintercastle Academy can almost calculate the specific location of the magnetic pole in an instant through their own strength, in order to temper the students and let them experience it for themselves, neither of them made a move, but issued a task for everyone to choose to complete.

"It's said to be a blank sea, but it turns out that almost all of the places are ice fields, and only a little bit of water is not frozen."

Before the fire, the dwarf Nick muttered to himself, "There are icebergs everywhere, and God knows when the ice under your feet will break, what kind of magnetic poles to look for in such a place, sure enough, we have gone crazy." ”

Because the places where the dwarves live are all hot lava fields, or dark underground, so he is extremely disgusted with this extremely cold, and there is a full half year of daylight place, Nick, who has been in the dazed sea for almost twenty days, is really about to go crazy now, no matter how strong he is, he can't bear this kind of physical and psychological double torture.

"Keep going crazy too!"

But on the other side, Ivan, as the leader of the team, shook his head firmly, and the white-blond haired hunter boy casually added a fire to the fire, then looked around at his four teammates, and said firmly: "Just the ice field, just looking for a magnetic pole...... We've even killed a lot of Origin Realm Dragon Beasts, will we still be defeated by the wind and snow? ”

"And most importantly, you're willing to lose to a teenage girl?"

As soon as this little girl was mentioned, an inexplicable motivation erupted in the entire team.

"yes...... How can you lose to this guy who came later! ”

"Damn, it's clear that we came first!"

Amira and Karin gritted their teeth at the same time, their eyes revealing a strong sense of struggle, and although Alva on the side did not speak, his heart was also full of unwillingness and unhappiness.

Lisa Chronos, this is the common opponent and competition goal of the five members of the team.

Two months ago, this mysterious little girl who was brought back by everyone's master, the legendary powerhouse, Joshua Van Radcliffe, entered the Winter Castle Academy under the recommendation of the warriors, and at the beginning, the five members of the first team also took care of this little girl with dragon horns and dragon tail, and knew at a glance that she was not an ordinary human because they were also close to Joshua, and they even helped Lisa to learn basic transcendent knowledge and assist in learning various magic skills.

Outcome...... It was they who were quickly overtaken and beaten.

It's not that Lisa is strong - although the talent and cultivation techniques of the dragon girl are all first-class, but the five people in the first squad who can pass the mist test of divine doom and also learn the exercises taught by Joshua are not soft persimmons, in fact, because the world is different, Lisa, whose strength is slightly reduced, is in an all-round weakness when facing the first squad with more combat experience and older age, basically everyone in the team, Including Alva, who has just joined the team for a short time, can deal with the simple attack methods of the dragon girl with one hand...... But the premise is that there is only one dragon girl.

But how could Lisa fight alone? Behind her, there is also the guidance of a former fire demon syndicate!

As a former Extreme Demon, although the Syndicate felt that the strength of Joshua's other disciples was quite extraordinary, he could still accurately grasp the weaknesses of each person in the five-person team, and under the guidance of this old man, Lisa challenged various levels and successfully defeated the five seniors after a difficult battle! And under the syndicate's rather wicked gestures, the rather naïve Lisa also told them that she was the only official disciple of Joshua.

"Brothers and sisters, come on! One day, you too will become Master Joshua's true disciples! ”

Lisa was just genuinely cheering up, but in the hearts of Ivan and the others, it hurt like being stabbed hundreds of times with a knife - they had worked hard for so long, and now they were still Joshua's registered disciples, and a little girl who suddenly appeared suddenly became an official disciple...... It's really devastating!

"Do you mean...... Is that rumor true? The lord appreciates the rumors of a young girl......"

In the hearts of his disciples, Joshua who was killed was actually just forgetting to tell the people of the first team that they had already turned positive, he always thought that Ivan, Amira, Karin, Nick and Alva, who had been able to teach him the exercises to Xiaocheng, had already had the consciousness of becoming his real disciples, but the warriors forgot, sometimes a simple confession was more uplifting than any words.

And now, Lisa has also taken on the same task as Ivan and others, to detect the specific location of the magnetic poles of the Microf world, and it has become a complete competition between them, but if Joshua sees the healthy competition between Lisa and the first team at this time, maybe he will deliberately hide this point, so that the young people can have a little vitality among themselves.

Just when everyone was working hard to improve themselves during this peaceful time, Joshua, who was staring at the huge metal statue he had accidentally created at the gate of New Moldavian City, which is the combined name of the original main city of Moldavia and the four new satellite cities, suddenly sensed a fluctuation in the distance that made his heart palpitate.

It was not the vigilance caused by the proximity of a powerful force, nor the excitement of burning battle intent, but a more ordinary, more ordinary, as if it were a resonance......

Joshua shifted his gaze to the direction the wave was coming from.

"Is it the fluctuation of the first number?"
