Chapter 892 Occupied
When the new continent was due to the “spirituality overflow” in the last game, it caused a firestorm in Transcendent World. When foul wind and bloody rain.
In the mundane level of the material world, a landmark event with far-reaching consequences like a landslide and tsunami occurred.
The old continent north, Atlan, Iceland, the capital “Oslo City”.
Squeak—!
Under the escort of the palace guards, a black convertible car with a luxurious interior with a jewel logo and powered by an internal combustion engine slowly parked at the door of the palace council hall.
“Your Majesty, be careful.”
The escort walked down with an old king wearing a gold crown and a ruby cane in hand.
It has been proved that even after many improvements by “steam and mechanical gods”, steam turbines are more suitable for developing into external combustion engine power sources for railway locomotives, ships, giant Divine Weapons and other large-scale machinery.
In the pursuit of miniaturization and comfort in automobiles, engineers are more willing to use lightweight power units with higher power-to-volume ratio and power-to-weight ratio.
And, for the dignitaries.
The pomp and comfort are much more important than the technical maturity. The steam locomotive with black smoke all the way is really difficult to meet their needs.
Additionally.
I want to put the fledgling electric vehicle on the market as a mature commodity on a large scale.
Whether it is chips, batteries, or the infrastructure of power equipment in the world, they are all major obstacles that are difficult to solve in a short time.
Therefore, the internal combustion engine vehicle has gradually become a standout in this field.
Especially in these years, lead-acid battery, internal combustion engine ignition, rubber pneumatic tires, spring suspension and other technologies have been conquered by Garriott dukedom’s technicians one after another.
It is natural for them to launch a relatively mature “internal combustion engine car”.
At present, high-end customized services are still the main focus. The factory can rely on skilled craftsmen and modern assembly halls to prepare each car with nothing common with each other according to the buyer’s requirements.
With the engine in the front and the deerskin seats in the rear with gold and ivory trim, a premium sedan with clutch, transmission and rear driveshaft was born.
What? Is follow-up maintenance expensive? Can’t match parts between vehicles?
tsk tsk, what we want is this unique and unmatched, noble and luxurious tone.
If you are like others, the dignitaries are not happy!
And on the cars produced by dukedom “Tlaloc Electric Company”, there is also the car logo “Gem Emblem” designed by Duchess Garriott, fashion vane, great scholar Olivia Your Majesty .
It is even more attractive (price increase) for it.
Take this luxury car sold to King Harald I of Atlan, for example, it cost the royal family a full 300,000 pounds, which is the astronomical price of 10,000 Golden Lions!
Be aware that a few years ago, when sailing battleships ruled the sea, this amount of money was almost enough to buy a Level 4 battleship.
Cough, it’s not a major event anyway, and it’s not a garden for Lafayette.
Even if it’s the same level car, there are still three in the palace.
There are also radio transmission equipment, radios, radio broadcasts, phonographs, record players, cameras, telephones across the Black Sea.
Lack of money? Just collect taxes.
The old king walked up the steps with a cane, still thinking about this major event about his family’s prosperous life.
‘Well, the “landscape tax” was just added this month (residents whose houses face the sea must pay a tax ranging from 50-100 copper fuers per year).
Let me think about it, next month there will be an additional “beggar tax” in the whole country, you have to pay a golden lion tax before you are eligible to beg in the city, hahaha ‘
p>
Harald I secretly praised himself as a genius in “tax collection”, and then walked briskly into the council hall and sat on his throne.
Looking at the ministers who have arrived below, I sigh again, at my current age, I still spend half an hour working every day. I am really a wise man!
Then, the Chancellor stepped forward with a beaming face, offering King Your Majesty a piece of news that made him feel better:
“Your Majesty, good news. , Goddess blessing, in our colony ‘Big Cape’ in our new continent, geologists have discovered abundant oil resources.
We can take these ‘black gold’ and go to further negotiate terms with Tulip, at least The high-quality steel that the arsenal needs in the future can be solved.”
Hearing this, Harald I nodded him approvingly:
“Well, yes, if we can win Garriott dukedom It would be better to set up a factory here. The complete oil industry chain in the hands of the Duchess is a river flowing with gold!”
At this time, while the king was in a good mood, The Minister of Foreign Affairs stepped forward and said respectfully:
“Your Majesty, how do we respond to the note from [Aegis of the Sovereign]?
The number of monarchy countries that have joined it now has become more and more numerous. The more, even the Cyrus Empire, under the leadership of the regent Queen Teresa, has put aside the hatred of the past and sent a mission to actively negotiate with Tulip.”
However.
Without waiting for King Your Majesty to reply, the Chancellor of the Exchequer jumped and shouted:
“Atlan has its own national conditions, if you join an international organization dominated by tulips, The civilians have not yet succeeded in rebelling, and we will first become the vassals of Tulip from politics, economics and military.
The two young monarchs who are now leading Tulip are not good people, they want to Don’t you understand what the hell is going on?”
The great characters in the audience secretly despised in their hearts:
“I think you are simply reluctant to implement” The social wealth redistribution system in the King Power Reform Plan, right? In order to ease social contradictions, we must give the gold and silver that we have already obtained to those whore people.
Ahem, in fact, we are also reluctant to give up.”
So, as usual, the issue was put on hold again in the quarrel as it should be by rights.
Obviously, the problem that Atlan has accumulated for a long time is not the problem of a ruler himself, but that the entire ruling class has been rotten from top to bottom.
It wasn’t all good news from the Secretary of Defense:
“Your Majesty, under the auspices of Ms. Cathy Moral, Chief Scientist of the Academy of Engineering.
We already have 12 ironclads, and a full-heavy battleship comparable to the Tulip [Armed Knight], enough to defend our defense.
But our treasury is currently.”
Although they are short-sighted and greedy, they are not stupid. In addition to maintaining a decent life for the powerful, they practice the standard Songun politics. like this.
As for the “democratic flood”? So far, no kingdom with the title “Knight” has been heard of being overthrown by a mob.
This is also the main reason why they are not enthusiastic about [Aegis of the Sovereign], and they even want to watch the show for the Cyrus Empire, which has already begun to act.
Hearing the words of the Minister of Defense, the king who was sitting high on the throne waved his hand. The following words were obviously not what he wanted to hear. Instead, he suddenly asked a question that was irrelevant:
“What do you think of me proposing to Ms. Moral?”
All the vassals looked at this young man who was wise and talented, but now he is too drunk. Your Majesty looked at each other in blank dismay.
Although not many people know the true identity of the Demon God, as long as they do, they are all shocked by Harald I’s bold idea.
They couldn’t figure out whether this Your Majesty was going to “feed the devil” or “love the sex like life”.
“That.”
“en? What’s going on? Are those pariahs who overestimate one’s capabilities still making noise?”
Harald I suddenly turned Head looked towards outside the hall.
After a wave of extraordinary power, the voice outside the palace suddenly became louder:
“We want to eat, we want to work!”
“Damn the window Tax! Fireplace tax! Landscape tax! Fat corpse tax!”
“The king, the lord, the church, you are all vampires!”
The huge demonstration has lasted for more than half a year month, but the great characters in the chamber simply ignored their demands.
This is the inferiority of the leader. Absolute power brings absolute corruption. Like capitalists, they all have to drink blood and eat flesh.
“Go! Go! Go!”
“Atlantic people don’t need a king who only collects taxes!”
“We want our own elections Head of State!”
“.”
At this moment, outside the gate of the palace, the crowd was surging, and at least 50,000 to 60,000 people gathered in several nearby blocks.
Without a leader, this is just a mob.
But.
In order to make achievements in front of the “God of Black Wings”, Tru Nimbra, the “God of Music and Opera”, was personally in charge, bringing together a total of eight democratic leaders, who are also third rank. 【politician】.
They jointly used the most basic ability-[Public Opinion Rush], arousing the emotions of the demonstrators, setting off a wave of heaven shaking, earth shattering!
Even in the “spirituality vision” observation, a roaring giant wolf illusory shadow was formed in the sky above the city, which is the embodiment of the people’s consciousness and national character in this country.
Tru Nimbra, disguised as a mortal and a bystander the whole time, finally raised his eyebrows.
“Hahaha, this is the assembly!
For justice and democracy (crossed out), for world peace and stability (crossed out), for the freedom of the people of Atlan And liberation (crossed out), for your land, wealth and capital tide, nice!
We are here.
O king, please give this country back to your people Let’s go!”
In the palace, there is a man who is two meters tall with a bare upper body, blue and black long hair like needles, like a wolf like a bear, simply a man with a wild beast in human form, looking towards the outside of the palace intently .
He looked solemn, far from the carelessness of a group of powerful and powerful people.
This is the last title Knight of the Atlan Kingdom – “Bloodthirsty Wild Hunt” Dominic. He is not a member of the royal family, but a genius Knight who made a strict contract with the royal family.
Since the “Title Knight” can use the power of “letter”, he is naturally very sensitive to this so-called “public opinion”.
In Dominica’s spiritual sense, the originally scattered and disordered public opinion has been unified into a whole by an inexplicable force, possessing a terrifying force that threatens a fourth rank transcender.
If these people are citizens of other countries, it doesn’t matter, but they are all their own compatriots, and they are also the fundamental source of strength to support [Title·Bloodthirsty Hunt].
The principle of “water can carry a boat and capsize it” is the same no matter which world it is in.
If you go out to face this turbulent public opinion at this time, maybe you will be directly knocked down, and the [Title] will collapse!
A drop of cold sweat gradually dripped from the forehead of the “Title Knight”.
“Suffer! Suck! Suck!”
