Chapter 619 Adwin(1/2)

The capital is in the north of the Federation, thousands of kilometers away.

The carriage was already fast with the bonus of spells, but it still took half a month to walk. During this period, thieves were rampant, and refugees who lost their homes due to famine and war were blocked on the road. Fortunately, Sheriel, a Knight-level, was responsible for cleaning up.

Anyang is not in a hurry. He has accepted too many new things these days, and it just takes some time to digest them.

At the same time, I have rich experiences along the way, and it is a good choice whether it is to cultivate the mind or increase knowledge.

Especially when he felt that the atmosphere in the northern part of the Federation was a little bit about to move from the "Medieval" to the steam industry period similar to that of the bourgeois enlightenment and reform period, he became even more interested and would stay for a moment to observe every time he went.

This feeling of seeing history is wonderful.

The group finally arrived at the capital.

Spreading most of the Federation, the four of them were somewhat dusty, with no noble demeanor anymore, and there were too many thieves, and there were dark red blood stains in the gaps in the armor of the two preparatory knights, and they were fully armed, which led to being stopped at the gate of the capital.

"Stop checking and take out your ID!"

But Yu licked his dry lips, and immediately stepped forward, taking out his aristocratic identity certificate while a guard negotiated.

"Sir, we are nobles who were brought from the Marquis of Boer in the southern part of the Federation. We have experienced many battles along the way. Now, can we find a place to rest in the capital? My adults and I will thank you. This is a reward."

As he said that, he took out two silver coins.

"A noble from the south!"

The guards took their ID certificate and took two silver coins without hesitation and threw one for their companions. I don’t know if they simply thought there were fewer silver coins or looked down on the southern nobles, but he spoke a little disdainful, but he still let it go quickly.

But You looked sinister and rode his horse into the city.

Sheriel followed closely behind in a carriage.

A team of cavalry next to him was stopped while escorting a nobleman from afar. It seemed that they were from the south. Two violently tempered knights clashed with the city guards. Obviously, it was because of the city guards and arrogance and contempt that they almost drew their swords.

"Damn Northern Pigs!"

"I respect your knight's identity from the south, but this is the capital, so you'd better restrain yourself!"

"Damn it, a group of pigs who only know how to enjoy themselves. Thanks to our southern knights blocking Younu, you can feel at ease. Now, even a small city guard dares not take us seriously! Do you dare to accept my challenge?"

"Is the Federation supported by your southern part alone..."

The sound gradually faded away, and Anyang was a little clearer.

The Federation was originally composed of several small countries, but now it has almost integrated with each other, leaving only the north and south.

But the gap between the north and the south has been around for a long time and cannot be resolved overnight. Perhaps a full-scale war is the fastest way.

Specifically, the north looked down on people from the remote south, denounced them as rural blouses, and the south looked down on people from the north, believing that the north had lost the tradition of the Mesoauran Federation's abundant knights and had fallen to the point where they could only enjoy themselves.

The two argued with each other and became more and more intense.

It is said that even in the front-line military camps, the knights in the north and south often clash, but the ending can be imagined...

Judging from Anyang's perspective, the situation in the federal state is also very interesting. The north represents prosperity, the advanced side, and the south represents backward and conservative side. One side controls the economy and the other side controls the force, and can barely reach a balance.

But he knew that such a balance would not last long.

The north is becoming more and more prosperous and the industrial level is improving. The knights focus more on equipment, so they are despised by the knights in the south. At the same time, the nobles in the north are becoming more and more open-minded, actively accepting new things, and even dare to give up their rights.

The south is still a remote area. Most of the lords follow the ancient laws and maintain absolute control over the territory. The knights also flatter the most primitive force and constantly temper their bodies and combat skills to gain status by serving allegiance to the lord.

Anyang feels that the Federation has already begun to have the necessary conditions for reform and has a guarantee of survival in this chaotic era.

The lords in the south were responsible for resisting powerful foreign enemies, while the nobles in the north worked hard to develop and forge ahead. It seemed that the two sides had many conflicts, but in fact they had just completed a clear division of labor. Even though the current federation was still not strong, they already had the capital to compete for hegemony.

Britain in the real world is the most successful example. They led the industrial revolution and established the Empire of the Sun never set.

Of course, the Federation just has opportunities.

In ancient China, there were opportunities to enter the capitalist era and the Age of Discovery several times in the real world, but they were not successful for various reasons. The same is true for this world. With opportunities and conditions, it does not mean that it will be completed.

After all, there is no way to make any mistakes in such a drastic change that takes more than a hundred years to complete.

For example, conflicts between the North and the South broke out early, wars on the front line were completely defeated, federal finances were tight, encountered strong foreign enemies, and even a mistake in a parliamentary resolution, and a large protest from the lower class people may lead to the failure of federal reforms.

Moreover, Anyang does not know the situation in other countries, nor does it know what the mysterious people are about this.

However, as a ruler of other worlds, Anyang felt that being able to witness such an era with his own eyes, being able to see this event that is enough to be recorded in the history of later generations, and it is also a significant improvement in his knowledge.

The dusty carriage jingled forward, and the pedestrians around them gave in under the pressure of two knights.

Anyang lifted the curtain and looked out the window.

Compared with the remote war-torn areas in the south, the northern cities that have come along the way have become a bit prosperous.

The Federal Capital is even more prosperous and atmospheric, with spacious streets and even dedicated horse roads, with dedicated people responsible for cleaning. After passing through the old city, almost all the houses built according to unified specifications, with shops facing the street on both sides.

The buildings similar to Gothic buildings are quite high, with girls' underwear hanging by the windows, waving in the wind.

Especially in the center of the city, there is a street light at every distance on the roadside. I guess it will be that the lights are long at night.

"No wonder so many nobles came here to settle."

This place is undoubtedly a completely different style from the south.

Occasionally, a gorgeous carriage drove by, with a slightly different style from the south, and the people in the car would look at them curiously. Sometimes, a knight with sharp armor could be seen riding by, with iron hooves sounded, and the horse was taller than the horse in the south.

But both Yu and Martin, the two preparatory knights, were a little tragic.

Anyang quickly put down the curtain. These were just some new ideas for him, and there was not much to be amazed.

Sheriel's voice came from the front of the carriage

"Are we looking for hotel accommodation first?"

"Um."

"OK."

About half an hour later, they found a hotel that looked very nice and decorated with luxurious appearance.

But Yu dismounted and negotiated with them. However, these people ignored them when they heard the Southern accent. They found that the Preparatory Knight had already shown signs of getting angry. They were a little scared and became serious, but they had wasted a lot of time.

The room was very expensive, with thirteen silver coins a night.

When I walked up the stairs, Danyou was still angry: "These northerners are really ignorant, just civilians. If they were in the south, I would have killed them all long ago!!"

Anyang smiled knowingly and didn't say anything.

This is indeed the case in the south. It is thankful that the civilians who have been through wars all year round can afford to eat. On the contrary, the status of the military class has improved. Civilians angered the knights, even if they are just reserved knights, they probably have to die.

Although the civilians here are afraid of the knights, they are not so exaggerated and sometimes they even dare to contradict the reserve knights.

It seems that the rights of the nobles are also faintly weakened.

Anyang doesn’t know whether it is just the ‘special’ treatment received by the nobles in the southern region or that all nobles are like this, but the improvement of civilian status can barely be regarded as the beginning of the changes of the times, and this is even more so when strict laws replace class rule.

Especially the Federation itself does not have the idea of ​​royal power.

He vaguely remembers that one of the fundamental reasons why Britain stood out was that its royal power was weakened earlier than other kingdoms.

Although the hotel rooms are expensive, the environment is very well configured, which is better than all the hotels I have stayed along the way. Especially for Sherry and the two Preparatory Knights, this is probably the best room they have ever lived in, second only to the noble bedroom.

Anyang did not live in a room with Sheriel.

...I'm afraid I can't help it!

The next day, they began looking for Pierce Medical Association.

The contempt of the northerners towards the southerners still caused a lot of trouble for them, but it was soon found out that the Pierce Medical Association had changed its name to the Pierce Rescue Association several years ago. It has been in full swing these years, and its address is just south of the capital.

"Master Ain, it's almost evening now..."

"It's okay, it's just the evening."

"yes."

But You quickly turned his horse's head.

Twenty minutes later

"arrive."

"Um."

When Anyang lifted the curtain down, he saw a building with a slightly church-like style. It was very tall, with strange reliefs carved, which felt solemn. There was a sign in front of it, which read the Pierce Rescue Association.

As soon as he walked in, a girl came over quickly.

"Sir, are you here to donate?"

“Uh… not.”

The girl was a little disappointed, but she said quickly: "Oh, that's the case, who are you looking for?"

"I'm introduced by Oliver Chaplin, come to His Excellency Advin Rees."

The expression on the girl's face gradually turned into shock: "I'm sorry, Mr. Oliver Chaplin is..."

“…is a student of His Excellency Advin Rees.”

The girl frowned and immediately said, "Please wait a moment. I need to ask Mr. Adevin before I know."

Anyang nodded.
To be continued...
