Extraordinary pedigree

Terra Calendar 1591.1.10.

07:00 AM.

The junction of the above-ground plates (repeat the continent).

Nirvana Water City.

Buzz——

The tremors through the plane gate gradually subsided, and Mole, a special operator of the Administration, stabilized his steps. His eyes passed through the slowly dissipating blue light and saw the magnificent scene of Nirvana Water City for the first time.

"This is the Reunion Continent..." Mole took a deep breath and walked into the bustling crowd.

The junction is located at the delicate balance point between the present world and countless planes. It is also one of the darkest areas of the Triangular Trade.

Merchants from various worlds transport cheap industrial products to the border areas in exchange for financial slaves (beast masters, other non-human races), transport the financial slaves to the city of the New World (Edici Federation), sell them, and buy back production raw materials from the New World. The finished goods were then transported to border areas in exchange for slaves, completing circular trade.

As the central trading place between the worlds and the new world, the junction has two main sections: above ground and underground.

Each plate has unique characteristics and inhabitants, and together they form a diverse and complex ecosystem.

The Aboveground Plate is a vibrant world of dense forests, vast plains, towering mountains, and winding rivers.

The sky here is shrouded in a mysterious light all year round. The changes in day, night and seasons are completely different from those in the real world. The residents of the above-ground plate come from all planes, including humans, elves, dwarves and more fantasy races.

Here they established various forms of social organization, from simple tribes to complex kingdoms and republics, each culture bearing the unique imprint of its original plane.

The above-ground plate is also called the repeat continent.

As for the reason, it is naturally because the formation of the junction is inseparable from the six duet performances of the "Crimson King". Since the Red King launched the performance, Terra's pattern has inevitably moved in a direction that no one expected. hurricane.

In addition to the Duo continent, there is also an underground plate called "The Other Shore" at the junction.

Different from the prosperous scene on the ground, the underground plate is a field full of unknowns and dangers.

There is a vast network of endless caves, labyrinths and underground cities, hiding ancient secrets and powerful magic.

The environment of the underground plate is extremely diverse, from blazing lava lakes to icy underground rivers. The creatures that live here are equally diverse, including underground gnomes, ghosts, evil spirits and other more mysterious beings.

These creatures are often hostile to outsiders, but some seek allies.

The area on the other side was originally going to be called the "Abyss", but the worlds seemed to have a tacit understanding and didn't want to give this name to the underground plate.

Because the term "abyss" already has a default endorsement in the hearts of all races.

Although they don't call themselves Abyss, what they do is no different from Abyss Demons.

Whenever those lunatics who uphold human supremacy go crazy against all races, gods and demons in the sky, this behavior is called by scholars from all walks of life - an abyss explosion.

According to the analysis of historians in various worlds, a new round of abyss eruption cycle is coming again, and a new round of abyss eruption is bound to sweep across all worlds. The abyss will definitely annihilate all living creatures in sight as its own enemies.

They would even..., no, they would definitely take action against their "common people" in Terra.

No matter what, all realms are ready to resist the abyss and fight to the death with those crazy demons who call themselves "angels".

The Management Bureau is regarded as a vicious dog force formed by the spread of pollution in the abyss, and as a special operator under the vicious dog force, Mole's eyes are quickly scanning the Nirvana Water City where he first set foot. This mysterious city-state located at the junction of... Its unique aquatic structure and turquoise glow greet the eye.

After Mole took a deep breath, he blended into the hustle and bustle of the adventurer area on the north side. The air here was filled with moist breath and the fragrance of various planes.

Five days ago, the appointment of the Director of the Administration penetrated his daily life like a beam of light. Under the guidance of the Director and the genealogy think tank [Adam], he was busy adjusting the [Module] loopholes in his body, and at the same time screening out the ones that could match his A task force that goes into dangerous situations together.

His brief run-in with Special Operator Moon Rabbit.

He has a preliminary grasp of the upcoming scientific research tasks and newly equipped equipment.

Time seems to be running out of time during this preparation, and every minute and every second is urgent and precious.

The director's expectations are more important than Mount Tai for Mole. According to the details revealed by the director, the Bureau will start cleaning Hell's Kitchen when Midwinter comes.

And he must bring [Operator Qingniu] safely back to the world before Midwinter, and at the same time, he only needs the remaining week to complete the running-in of the three task force branches that have just taken shape.

According to Xia Xiu's plan, he will set up twelve special-level operators in the Management Bureau. Each special-level operator will lead a task force branch to complete all the tasks assigned by him - the twelve special-level operators will only listen to him. The instructions are only responsible to him.

At this stage, Xia Xiu planned to use war to support war and sharpen his task force in battle, so he first selected three special operators to build a basic team.

With the basic team in place, subsequent development only needs to be gradual and cyclical.

But now the basic team is short of two, so Mole needs to bring Evan Rowell back to the Bureau within two days. The other person is an operator selected by the director, and he has his irreplaceable uniqueness.

As an operator who has learned about the director's "Family Plan", Mole knows how important Qingniu's talents are to the plan.

"Nirvana Water City is located in the southern area of ​​the junction. It is a unique city-state built on a vast lake."

While walking in Nirvana Water City, Mole recalled information about Water City in his mind.

"The people in power in the water city are the Nagas. The political system of the city-state is built around the ancient traditions of the Nagas and the worship of the water element, forming a unique political structure that combines centralization and parliamentary systems. The Naga Queen is the supreme leader of the city-state. A ruler who serves as both a political leader and a supreme priest.”

The mole was standing right in front of a statue of the Naga Queen. The statue was carved from rare deep-sea jade, showing a soft blue-green color.

The image of the queen in the sculpture is both solemn and beautiful, with a human head and a snake body, symbolizing the noble lineage of the Naga tribe.

Her face is delicately and kindly painted, showing wisdom and compassion, but her eyes contain an inviolable majesty. She holds an orb symbolizing the water of life in her hand, as if she is silently guarding the peace of the entire city-state and its residents.

In Water City, the Naga Queen is regarded as the spokesperson of the Naga gods in the mortal world and has the final decision-making power.

The queen's responsibilities include making laws, supervising their implementation, leading religious ceremonies, and maintaining peace and order within and outside the city-state.

Under the queen is the Water Council, composed of nobles, wise men and magicians from the Naga tribe. They are responsible for assisting the queen, discussing and reviewing major policies, and managing the daily affairs of the city-state.

Members of the Water Council are also responsible for overseeing the operations of various administrative departments and ensuring that laws and orders are effectively implemented.

The reason why Mole knows so much about Shuicheng is because of a statement they received five days ago.

A rejection of the Authority’s statement establishing diplomatic relations:

"After carefully considering and evaluating the current international situation and the basic positions of both parties, we regrettably found that at the current stage, the two parties have large differences on some fundamental principles. In particular, the basic positions of Nirvana Water City and the Authority The human supremacist policies promoted are incompatible.

We firmly believe that true peace and prosperity are based on mutual respect and equality, not just for humans, but for all life forms inhabiting our vast universe.

Therefore, after careful consideration, we have decided to hold off on establishing formal diplomatic relations at this time.

At the same time, we also see great potential for cooperation with the Authority in many non-political areas, such as scientific and technological exchanges, thaumaturgy projects and environmental protection actions. We eagerly look forward to more in-depth discussions and cooperation with the Authority in these areas to jointly promote our shared home.

Here, Nirvana Water City reaffirms our commitment to peace, diversity and inclusion, and is willing to find more ways to promote understanding and cooperation in the days to come to build a better world for all of us.

salute,

Nirvana Water City Queen. "

That's what the statement says.

Moreover, the statement was issued not long after the Authority announced that the director had taken office.

Mole still remembers the scene five days ago.

At that time, I was making detailed adjustments to the [Module] in a dark room with the Director.

Suddenly, the door was gently pushed open, and Intelligence Chief Pansy Jane walked in steadily.

She held a document tightly in her hand, which was a statement from Nirvana Water City.

When Pansy Jian handed the statement to Xia Xiu, he stopped what he was doing, took the document, and quickly scanned the paper.

Soon, a sunny smile appeared on his face, which was his unique smile that could infect everyone around him.

He said softly in an extremely puzzled and slightly sarcastic tone:

"They actually thought I was begging them?"

Mole was stunned for a moment. After he realized what he was doing, he couldn't help but feel speechless in his heart for the stupidity of the leader of Water City.

The Management Bureau has issued requests for the establishment of diplomatic relations to many bordering plane regimes. Most of those regimes who have received requests have treated them coldly.

The Management Bureau also knows what role it plays, so it doesn't feel anything. This is just going through the motions. Let's say hello to them "politely" first.

This is the first time Xia Xiu has seen something as pure as Shuicheng.

Do they really think that the Administration is asking them?

What's behind the Authority?

Heaven!

When does the Kingdom of Heaven need to ask for opinions from aliens?

No member of the Dream God Clan would dare to have such a ridiculous dream.

Although the statement from Shuicheng was wrapped in a cloak of politeness and diplomacy, its essence was a challenge to the authority of the authority and a veiled disdain.

Mole is 100% sure that if the director had not been entangled in the messy affairs in Hell's Kitchen, a pure person like Shuicheng would have been hit with an iron fist of sanctions immediately, making Shuicheng understand what the real power is. .

But just because you can't stand an iron fist now doesn't mean you won't have a chance in the future.

Because Shuicheng is "pure" in more ways than one, it also has many tricks that make people's eyes darken.

After briefly glancing at the statue of the Naga Queen who was "working hard to govern" the water city, the mole slowly traveled along the north side of the Nirvana Water City, and finally arrived at the inaccessible slave agricultural area.

This area is far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and looks particularly lonely and gloomy.

Here, the vast waters are divided into special underwater farmlands, in which various strange aquatic plants grow. They either emit a faint light or exude a charming fragrance. This is specially for deep-sea slaves. The working environment designed by Yushou.

On the water, supervisors and managers stood on the floating platform. Their eyes were cold and alert, and they glanced around with sharp eyes from time to time.

Under the water, the water beasts were working hard day after day.

These beasts have a variety of forms, from fish tails to creatures covered with scales. They either work alone or work together in groups, but without exception, their expressions reveal endless excitement. Exhaustion and despair.

The bodies of the beast masters are bound by special tools and shackles. They use their special abilities, such as controlling water flow or changing the growth rate of plants in the water, to complete heavy farming.

Although their movements under water appear light and agile, that is simply because they have been forced to adapt to such a life.

Whenever a beastmaster slows down due to excessive fatigue, he will be immediately punished by the supervisor. Even under water, the sharp scolding can be clearly heard in every corner.

There is a depressing and heavy atmosphere in the air in this area. Even the mole far away from the water can feel the sadness and despair coming from underwater.

The slave farming area is not only a witness to the economic prosperity of Nirvana Water City, but also a direct manifestation of its dark side - here, the beast masters are deprived of their freedom and forced to pay the price for the greed and luxury of others.

This is another "pure" manifestation of Shuicheng - the establishment of a slave agricultural area in an aboveboard and aboveboard manner, and it is also open to the public and allows tourists to watch.

The slave farming area of ​​Nirvana Water City is a disputed area located on the edge of the city, far away from the main commercial and residential areas.

This area is a direct product of the Black Triangle trade, involving the trade and utilization of deep-sea slave beasts.

These beasts are mainly water-based creatures with unique abilities that allow them to plant and harvest crops underwater, and these crops are sold to participants in the Black Triangle trade such as the Golden Court.

The slave farming area was designed as a semi-underwater agricultural production base.

There are habitats specially designed for water slave beasts, as well as underwater farmland suitable for growing aquatic plants and other special crops.

On the water's surface were living quarters for overseers and managers, as well as facilities for storing and transferring agricultural products.

The beastmasters who are forced to work here are in a difficult situation.

Although their ability to work underwater is highly utilized, they are deprived of their freedom and live in crude conditions with long working hours and little rest.

Beastmasters are assigned to different crop production tasks, including underwater farming, plant cultivation and harvesting.

The slave agricultural area produces a wide variety of crops, including but not limited to special aquatic fruits and vegetables, medicinal materials and other rare plants. These products are extremely valuable in the Black Triangle trade.

The agricultural products produced were first transported to the market inside Water City for preliminary trading, and then most were sent to areas such as the Golden Palace, where they became luxuries for nobles and wealthy businessmen.

Such a complete slave chain was openly displayed to the outside world in Shuicheng.

This made Mole not know how to "praise" the great wisdom of Shuicheng's leadership.

There is a huge difference between doing some things openly and doing them secretly.
