Abomination and the Legendary Dragon King

Chapter 349 Seventeen Kingdoms

The empire's military strength and war reserves are still able to deal with threats from the sea and the southern border, but it is sad that these two wars have not yet ended, and Bretogenia has to pay for the empire's finances. The problem is to think of a way.

In the past, the income of the empire was mainly from the auction of the treasures harvested from the ruins of the Felin Desert. Although these things were extremely expensive and very profitable, they were still a bit stretched to support the transportation of a country.
Fortunately, the citizens of the empire are very hard-working, and the food and alcohol grown by the mushroom people can basically meet their needs, and they can barely get by.

It is obviously impossible to support the wars on both sides with the current income of the empire alone. Soldiers' allowances can be deducted, but the update of weapons and the maintenance of ship armor obviously cannot be fooled, which will cost a lot of money.

There are still not many gold coins left in the imperial treasury, and in recent years, the empire has vigorously built warships in order to eradicate the threat at sea, and various high-level warships were dispatched to the battlefield above the offshore sea like dumplings. The black iron obtained by the empire from dismantling cities has basically been exhausted, and there are very few gold coins left.

Fortunately, the empire found many good treasures from the offshore islands and the pirate forces who died in battle. These things were transported to various countries in Tyrael for auction together with the ruins in the Felin Desert. The money is enough to reach the state of supporting war with war.

When it comes to the trade of the empire, we have to mention the contributions made by the sisters of the drow queen Helister to the empire. During the years when the red dragon was asleep, the drow queen and the ancestor of the vampires have been staying in the Western Holy Alliance , to operate the sales channels of the empire.

Unlike the First Empire, the Holy League of the West is more like a federation of merchants. The member states of the federation are small in size, and many of them are just a large city, and the power in the city is also extremely dispersed. Most of them fell into the hands of nobles or big businessmen, but not a lot of power in the hands of kings or heads of state.

The Holy League of the West has a total of [-] member states. The laws, customs, and national systems of different countries are different, making this loose federation the largest force in the entire Tyrell continent after the First Empire. However, the internal forces are very loose.

The country's economy is extremely developed, not even inferior to the First Empire.

The high-end level of combat power is not weak, many powerful legends and even demigod mages live in seclusion in the Western Holy Alliance, and the king of this alliance, Adelaide, is also one of the strongest in Tyrael.

Many years ago, he had broken through to the powerhouse of the demigod, and had a brilliant record of defeating the dragon of the Conferred God.

Princess Tillins of the Holy Alliance of the West is also an extremely rare genius. She is famous throughout Tyrael for reaching the realm of the legendary king at the age of less than 30. Such a powerful talent is also extremely rare in this era of talents. of.

During the years of the gradual decline of the First Empire, especially after being caught in the vortex of power struggles, the Western Holy Alliance's ambition to surpass the Empire has become more and more obvious.

In many trade occasions, this ancient and powerful country was more or less provoked, but in most cases, these small actions were not taken seriously by the First Empire.

After all, although the Western Holy Alliance has developed rapidly in recent years, there is still a big gap from the old powers, especially in terms of military strength and national heritage.

The First Empire didn't know how many streets to throw away from this loose federal state.However, the nobles of the Holy Alliance of the West didn't care about this. These wealthy businessmen or nobles' emphasis on face and self-satisfaction are amazing, and they have obtained the same status as the First Empire on some formal occasions. The treatment is enough to make these sub-merchants feel happy and satisfied.

"Businessmen are short-sighted" This is the evaluation made by Your Excellency the Valkyrie after reading the secret letter of the ancestor of the vampire, Lilith.

The pursuit of taste and prestige by these merchants in the Holy Alliance has provided the Red Dragon Empire with considerable funds, whether it is the relics mined from the Feline Desert in the past or the rare treasures dug out from the offshore islands. , can be sold at a pretty good price among the Western Holy Alliance.

These merchants still look down on the Red Dragon Empire so far. In their view, those barbarians of different kinds are lowly embryos who risk their lives to mine minerals for them. They are no different from the most vile miners on Tyrael. It is also in line with the identity of those orcs.
What these merchants don't know is that the aliens they look down on now are about to grow enough to threaten the dominance of human beings on the continent of Tyrael, and after the Red Dragon Empire completely conquers and digests the entire offshore area, it may be possible. Remove the "already" above.

Bretogenia is also naturally happy to paralyze these rich merchants of the Holy Alliance of the West, so that those lovely elf ladies and sisters also take on the work of the War Bureau while auctioning the goods.

Those drow or vampires lurking in foreign countries try their best to meet the requirements of those guys. Of course, this requirement is for goods, not for special services.

In fact, both the drow elves and the vampires can be regarded as the existence of the pinnacle of humanoid appearance in the multiverse, and some merchants with perverted hobbies seem to have a different kind of attitude toward this kind of human daughter-in-law idea.

But the fate of these guys is often miserable. After all, although those elves are beautiful, they are also legendary assassins who are proficient in poisoning and assassination.

Thanks to the large amount of financial aid from the Holy Alliance of the West and the ignorance of the First Empire, which is the most powerful force on the continent of Tyrell, this emerging empire was able to calmly face challenges from the sea and land at the same time.

This series of wars is like a whetstone sharpening the sharp minions of the empire, and after Alex wakes up and the Red Dragon Empire has devoured and digested the gains brought by these two wars, these stupid humans will Gradually, I realized what a terrible monster I had raised during these years.

However, the development of things is not always satisfactory. In the sixth year of the Red Dragon Empire's war to conquer the sea, the war has basically entered the final stage, and there is no longer any large-scale war in the entire offshore area. of resistance.

At this time, the situation on the battlefield changed.
