Chapter 1057 The Meeting that Opened the Curtain of the New Era
After discovering the vitality of this small border town, the Locke royal family immediately sent Prince Lanchester to check the situation of the city, and also met Held and Auston at this time.
These two people have long been prepared, but they are just waiting for the influence of the new alchemy props to continue to expand, when they can attract the attention of the Locke Kingdom, that is, when they come into contact with the Locke royal family.
When Lanchester saw with his own eyes that the desolate frontier town developed into a prosperous trading city with the help of new alchemy tools, he could hardly believe his eyes.
When it was discovered that the two deans of the Golden Rose Academy were both seventh-order epics and willing to cooperate with the Locke royal family for a win-win situation, the prince agreed without much thought.
Because he knows very well that if the Locke Kingdom is unwilling, some countries on the alchemy continent are willing to cooperate.
And Held and Auston chose the Kingdom of Locke, which can only be said to be their luck.
In the next time, after taking Lanchester to visit the whole city, Held and the two went to the Golden Rose Alchemy Academy to visit the manufacture of new alchemy props.
As for the sage's stone becoming the core secret of the Golden Rose Academy, the manufacturing method is limited to those core members who followed them to death in the early years. Even if Lanchester is a prince, there is no chance to watch the manufacture of the sage's stone. .
However, Lanchester didn't mind, but quickly reached an agreement with the Golden Rose Academy and invited Held and Auston to the capital of Caron.
Held and Auston went there with pleasure and met King Meno I, which opened the prelude to the reform of the Alchemy Continent.
Since the discovery of the Alchemy Continent fifty years ago, it has entered a long period of chaotic occupation.
The major churches have had a tug-of-war here, and because the Kingdom of Locke is too poor, too remote, and truly a place where birds don't shit, it has become a place where no church is willing to waste time fighting for the power of faith.
Although there are many churches set up here, they have not invested too much power. On the contrary, there are many supernatural beings of dark forces such as undead, demon warlocks, blood races, etc., which has also led to a mixed situation in this country.
Although the Locke royal family has the supreme ruling power, the area they actually control is less than the kingdom's general territory. The rest are either under the control of the major nobles, only nominally obeying the royal family's orders, or they are controlled by those powerful dark supernatural beings. Control, simply ignore the Locke royal family.
With the end of the meeting between Held and Auston and Meno I, which later generations called "the meeting that opened the curtain of a new era", drastic changes took place in the Kingdom of Locke, and the Golden Rose Academy was quickly established. For the Kingdom's First Alchemy Academy.
Began to cultivate a large number of alchemists, bringing the never-before-seen sage's stone to the Kingdom of Locke, as well as new alchemy props that use it as an energy system.
In an instant, the Sage Association relied on the Sage's Stone System to rapidly expand and expand, and its influence affected the entire Locke Kingdom, and even radiated and expanded wildly towards the surrounding kingdoms.
With the help of the Sage Association, the Kingdom of Locke began to develop at an alarming rate through new alchemy tools.
"This is a brand new era, a country where ordinary people can see hope!"
"Ordinary people are finally no longer useless!"
"We can also do what extraordinary people can do. This is simply a miracle! May the Golden Rose Academy live forever!"
Members of the Sage Association came to the front and implemented new alchemy tools throughout the Locke Kingdom.
In just a few years, new alchemy workshops appeared in the entire Locke Kingdom.
With the continuous establishment of new alchemy workshops, various new types of magic crystal alchemy items have been brought. The magic crystal items that can only be used by extraordinary people have begun to be popularized in batches.
What restricts the development of alchemy is not the difficulty of alchemy and the difficulty of manufacturing alchemy items, but the scarcity of extraordinary people.
Even with the advent of the age of gods, the superhumans have spread to an unimaginable level. There are hundreds or thousands of low-level supernatural apprentices in every large city, but compared to a city system, this is far from enough. of.
However, in the Kingdom of Locke, this restriction was broken, and a large number of ordinary people could also use alchemy props, become a member of this extraordinary system, and began to integrate into this era.
A large number of workers, peasants, mercenaries, extraordinary people, and even rich people from different classes have chosen to join the Sage Association.
When the Sage Association swept in the power of all classes like a black hole, it was destined to usher in a drastic change.
In less than half a year, with the help of the power of new alchemy tools, the Locke Royal Family and the Sage Association swept away all the resistance forces in the territory and integrated the power of the entire kingdom.
After obtaining a stable and unified social environment, the Kingdom of Locke has exploded with amazing potential.
By importing and exporting sage stones and new alchemy props, this place has become an ocean of wealth, and countless merchants from the alchemy continent have come to trade, bringing countless wealth to it.
The national strength of the Locke Kingdom began to grow by leaps and bounds, and it also attracted the jealousy of neighboring countries.
Soon, a first war against the Kingdom of Locke broke out.
The three surrounding countries bordering the Kingdom of Locke joined together to form a coalition of hundreds of thousands, and launched a surprise attack on the Kingdom of Locke without any warning.
And Held and Auston have learned from the blood of the first sage association, and the experience of many kingdoms in history as a foreshadowing. It has long been expected that as the Kingdom of Locke becomes more and more prosperous, it must be faced with beasts. of coveted.
So from the beginning, they were prepared for war, and they never let down their guard for a moment.
When the three-nation coalition army had not yet entered the territory, it was discovered, and the Kingdom of Locke and the Society of Sages quickly mobilized their troops to prepare for battle.
Ordinary people in the Locke Kingdom can control alchemical weapons, which allows them to arm an army fully equipped with alchemical weapons in a very short time.
The three-nation alliance thought it was a surprise attack, but as soon as it entered the territory of the Locke Kingdom, it was baptized by a round of alchemy cannons, and the vanguard lost more than 100,000.
Just when the Three-Power Allied Forces were beaten, a large number of war airships flew over in the sky and carried out a second round of bombing on the ground again.
After two rounds of attacks, the three-nation coalition forces were completely in disarray. In addition, the command system was not unified, and they could not organize an effective counterattack. They were quickly killed and fled.
Although the first foreign counterattack was victorious, it did not scare away those jealous, but made them usher in the second war soon.
