The climate of the Southern Continent is slightly different from the rest of the Miracle Continent, and the Southern Continent is slightly hotter in summer, especially in the surrounding areas near the Wild Lands, because of the scarcity of rain and the blowing of wind and sand, so it is not only hot, but also very dry. Although in the past year or so, the Void Principality has implemented many strategic construction policies adapted to local conditions, and even spent a lot of materials and money to hire druids known as "nature fanatics" and a large number of magicians to carry out greening construction, but in the short term, the effect is little.

But in any case, the environment of the entire Void Principality is indeed changing for the better.

The Black Swan Castle, one of the five most famous castles in the Southern Continent, has finally ushered in a large number of black swans since the First Ryan and Dabiang Wars. As a result, after the news of the Black Swan's reappearance in the Black Swan Castle spread, the castle's fame was soon restored to a peak state.

Of course, many nobles of Ryan cursed Sean in a sour whisper. After all, there was a saying in the Black Swan Castle a long time ago that if these black swans who are not afraid of the living appear in the Black Swan Castle, then this symbolizes that the owner of the castle has been favored by the goddess of luck.

The afternoon sun shines on the Black Swan Castle, casting a golden glow over the entire castle.

After several renovations, the Black Swan Castle has not only completely restored its former glory, but even because it is a product of Sean's real name, the value of the Black Swan Castle has increased exponentially.

Any aristocrat is inseparable from the face project.

Even if Sean is an archduke. And it may be the most unassuming and image-careless Grand Duke in the history of the Miracle Continent, but it is impossible for his followers to really ignore him because of Sean's casualness.

Originally, the Black Swan Guards, who were responsible for the security of the Black Swan Castle, only had about a hundred people. Today, it has grown to 300 people. These guards are made up of the most elite of the entire Void Principality's armies, and each of them has the personal strength of the highest silver pinnacle. Although they do not pay more attention to various combat skills than adventurers and mercenaries, as soldiers, they have a strong combination of skills and battle formation skills.

After a series of selections, these three hundred people have undergone hellish training by Rena, William, Alfred and others, and now they can be compared to a fourth-level army of 1,000 people. Their equipment supply and selection have the highest priority among all the armies of the entire Void Principality, because this guard is now not just responsible for guarding the Black Swan Castle, they are also William's personal guard for Shaun.

Void Shadow.

In the study on the second floor of the Black Swan Castle, there is a huge floor-to-ceiling window.

From this location, you can see the entire vestibule of the Black Swan Castle as well as the outer city walls and halfway up the mountainside. When the afternoon sun shines and falls. Through this window, most of the study room is reflected, and the brightness of the entire study room has been improved a lot.

Cecilia was standing behind the window, gazing out at the landscape.

The sun shone on her body, making her blonde hair look even more brilliant, as if bathed in divine light.

Today's Cecilia is no longer the ignorant little girl she was back then. After a series of events, Cecilia's growth rate is extremely rapid, even amazing, especially since her dual talents in politics and military have almost been tapped to the limit by Neil and William - in the past year. Almost all of the military and political discussions concerning the Void Duchy have Cecilia's involvement.

Especially in the discussion and decision of some major events, whether it is William or Neil, the final decision will be handed over to Cecilia. It's up to her to decide.

Because all the followers of Sean's inner circle know very well that Cecilia is the most irreplaceable person in Sean's heart. So in the Void Duchy in Sean's absence, Cecilia's identity is like a hostess who controls the overall situation. Of course. Her abilities did not disappoint, and the entire Void Principality was in the year that Sean left. It has been thriving at a steady and rapid pace.

Especially in the diplomatic matter of the Wild Federation, Cecilia's decisions and actions are even more impeccable.

Sean's original plan for the Wild Federation. It was only a prototype, and he was thinking of forming an alliance with the twelve councils of the Savage Federation. However, this plan is based on mutual trust, and if Sean fails to satisfy the appetites of his parliamentary allies, the so-called alliance will appear to be non-binding, and may even break.

And Cecilia, in the past six months, her main goal and direction is to deepen her influence on the Barbarian Federation.

Of the twelve councils of the Savages, five of them have now sworn allegiance to the Void Principality, not Cecilia personally, thanks to Cecilia's strong intervention and intervention. Although Cecilia and Clov have a strict disagreement on this point, according to Clov's thoughts, Cecilia's contribution to the Void Principality is understandable, but in the policy of the Savage Federation, Clov believes that Cecilia must think about herself, especially to prepare for the future restoration of the country, so these barbarian tribes should swear allegiance to Cecilia, not the Void Principality.

Everyone knows that the Void Principality will only be Sean's word, even if in Sean's absence, Cecilia has the identity of the mistress and the right to match it, but this Duchy will not be Cecilia's after all.

But Cecilia still chose to ignore Clov's advice.

Now there are five seats in the Barbarian Council that have sworn allegiance, including the Barbarian Winter tribe commanded by Tedamir, the Wall tribe led by the old werewolf who sent his daughter to study in the Void Duchy, and the Tarba. The Heavy Hammer and the blood-eyed goblin Carlos merged to form the Red Rock Tribe, Saloki. Five tribes, including the Eye of the Storm tribe commanded by Snow Wind, and the Roxi tribe ruled by Kruma and Cruz.

As for the two dwarven tribes, Copperbeard and Anvil, although they did not swear allegiance, their most important mineral resources were firmly grasped by the Void Duchy. Unless a more powerful external force intervenes, it is impossible for these two tribes to turn against the Void Duchy. And even in the parliament of the Union. These two are also unwavering Void parties, so they actually swear allegiance or not. It's not important at all.

As for the remaining five tribes, the Great War Drum Tribe, the Lionheart Tribe, the Eagle Tribe, the Stone Hammer Tribe, and the Hadex Tribe, the first three have also been somewhat shaken by Cecilia's offensive recently—not simply the will of the tribal chieftain, but the loosening of faith within the entire tribe.

The reason for this is that after the Wild Winter tribe officially swore allegiance to the Void Principality, they received a series of important support from the Void Principality, including scientific research, mineral resources, a large amount of food and seeds, and even the training of commanders.

You know, in all the barbarian state-seat tribes. The Wild Winter Tribe can only be regarded as a toddler who has just learned to walk. But now, in a year, this toddler has become a behemoth who can stand up and sit side by side with the four barbarian tribes - in the competition composed of all the barbarians in the whole wild land a few months ago, the wild winter tribe has become a well-deserved god in the hearts of all the barbarian tribes in the whole wild land except for the four major tribes.

Originally, among the barbarian tribes, the strongest individual combat power was undoubtedly the Great War Drum Tribe, and the champion of group combat was always only born between the Lionheart King and the Eagle Tribe, and the display of totem and witchcraft was firmly controlled by the Stone Hammer Tribe. As for other horse races, hunting, positional warfare, and many other events, they are only produced in this large tribe. But this year's event. All the project champions were all included in the Wild Winter Tribe, and the four major tribes were not shocked that there were ghosts.

So when the event ended, except for the Stone Hammer Tribe, the other three tribes and the Void Principality instantly became closer.

At this time. It was Cecilia's rare break.

In recent times, Cecilia has been squeezed into four hours of sleep a day, sometimes even less. Of course. This is not to say that she has endless business, but after normal business. She also set herself an extremely strict cultivation time, and Cecilia did not want to give up her innate talents and abilities. And the achievements of the lower sanctuary are obviously not satisfied with Cecilia.

From the lower Sacred Realm to the Middle Sacred Realm to the upper Sacred Realm, the ascension of these three realms does not depend on a person's accumulation. The ascension of the Sacred Realm realm is not like the accumulation of fighting qi in the Silver Realm or the condensation of Dou Qi in the Golden Realm, but depends on a person's ability to perceive and understand the law.

On the Miracle Continent, there are many people who have not been able to break through to the Median Sacred Domain in their entire lives, but there are also many people who have suddenly advanced to the Median Sacred Domain or even the Upper Rank Sacred Domain one day. What's more, in just one or two years after entering the lower Sacred Domain, he directly broke through to the Middle Rank Sacred Domain, or even the Upper Rank Sacred Domain.

It can be said that the length of time for the realm of the Holy Domain to ascend is the true interpretation of "genius".

However, Cecilia had been stuck in the Lower Sanctuary for more than a year, but she had never been able to become a Mid Sanctuary, which made her feel a little confused. It is precisely because of this confusion that Cecilia tries to seek the opportunity for epiphany in other ways, so she will officially intervene in all the affairs of the Void Duchy, but in this way, her rest time will naturally be greatly shortened.

William and Hela had expressed concern and deliberately did not consult Cecilia. But I couldn't bear that this beauty, who is now looking like a country and a city, would go to the Void City to find William and Hela by herself, or even simply stay in the conference room, William and Hela expressed their helplessness, so they had to carry out a strict negotiation of the rest time.

The four-hour break was already the result of a full day of bargaining between Hela and William.

In this regard, Hela has said that if Cecilia is exhausted by this, will Sean cut the two of them?

After thinking for a minute, William said that Hela would probably survive, and that he would probably be out of luck.

So, Hela continued to arrange tasks for Cecilia with peace of mind, but William looked particularly sad.

"Whew." Cecilia let out a soft snort, exhaling a breath of turbid air, and then her face turned rosy again, and her eyes brightened, "The break is over." …… Next, I'll see what the work is going to do. ”

As she spoke, Cecilia turned around, then returned to her desk and began to read the text on her desk.

Soon, a bag with a red label caught Cecilia's attention.

The bag is marked with a red seal with the word "confidential" written on it. Cecilia was sure that she hadn't seen this article before-all the texts on the table were escorted by someone sent by the Void City, and if there was a special text or a confidential text, then the Void Shadow would be dispatched to personally take care of the transportation, and this time in this batch of Wen Jiàn's escort, there was no Void Shadow Guard.

"Come out." Soon, Cecilia realized what was going on, and she spoke in a deep voice.

In a shadowy corner of the study, there was a blur as a figure stepped out of it, came to Cecilia's front and fell on one knee.

"Who are you?" Cecilia looked at this young and unfamiliar face, "It seems that the Black Swan Castle is not in charge of you. ”

Today's Void Realm intelligence network has completely covered the entire Void Principality, and even radiates out to the surrounding areas with this as the core. It is precisely because there is too much information that the Void Realm needs to be responsible for now, so new class authority has begun to be established internally, including the superior heads and subordinate executors of each region, and of course, the general person in charge of coordinating a region.

The Black Swan Castle is one of the two important regions of the Void Principality, and now it is controlled by Cecilia herself, so she naturally met with the person in charge of this area at the first time, and at the same time met all the subordinates under her command. The person who appeared in the castle in front of her calmly was someone Cecilia had never seen before, so she naturally asked who the other party was.

As for not attacking at the first time, it was because if it weren't for the insiders of the Void Realm, it would be impossible to enter the Black Swan Castle.

Don't look at the Black Swan Castle, there are only three hundred Void Shadows in charge of guarding, but in fact, in the shadows, there is a special force of Void Shadow Blade responsible for interception and counter-assassination. And if someone wants to dive into the ground, then they will find something even more terrifying - Sheena has now officially become a character who can take charge of herself, especially the Ice Spider Queen, who has a soul contract with her, and uses the underground of the Black Swan Castle as a nest to form an extremely terrifying underground spider cave world.

"I'm Spector." The young man kneeling in front of Cecilia said in a deep voice, "On the orders of Lord Hela, bring the secret order. …… The second phase of the Void Empire project has been successful, do you want to start the third phase of the plan? (To be continued......)
