To our new neighbors:
The Holy Roman Empire hereby warns you to surrender to us immediately and hand over your islands, or we will send a fleet to blockade and surround your territory.
After you surrender, we will determine your treatment based on your bloodline. It should be noted that regardless of your bloodline, we will spare your life.
If you have the blood of Holy Rome flowing in your veins, you will become a full member of our society and be granted a title, supporting our Holy Emperor.
If you were an ordinary white Europe, you could become a servant of the seven electors...
Having read this far, Zhang Tianyuan was too lazy to continue.
Where did this Shenluo come from?
Are you out of your mind?
Does he really think that changing his name to Holy Rome makes him Holy Rome?
These people are no better than mules and horses!
If these people were even remotely Rome, they wouldn't resemble mules and horses so much.
Fleet?
How many divisions could these people possibly have?
How many RPGs can they withstand?
Can it withstand the cannon fire of modern warships?
Zhang Tianyuan completely disregarded this so-called threat from the Holy Rome.
The fact that they still had to rely on flying arrows to deliver messages shows that these people's technical skills were not very good.
On the way back, Zhang Tianyuan discovered many more of the same flying arrows carrying messages.
These people must have come many times before, but he's never home.
Several nautical miles away, a medium-sized ocean-going vessel is sailing along the newly established route.
Even on board, Captain Derek, dressed in simple armor and exuding Shenluo style, is directing his crew.
"Ahead, there's another newly appeared island. Its inhabitant is mysterious and arrogant, never responding to us. Let's go check it out this time."
As a baron in the Holy Roman Empire Alliance, Derek's task was to "recruit new members" for the empire.
In simpler terms, it means bringing new players into your Soyuz to strengthen both the Soyuz and your own power.
Derek had been thinking about that small island for a long time. Although it was small, its location was good, and it could serve as a transit point and warehouse at sea.
The lords above are a bit troublesome, though.
He had never seen such an arrogant, or rather, cautious, novice.
No matter how warmly they invited them
However, the island's lord never appeared. Each time, they could only sheepishly fire wildly at the island before leaving.
Moreover, that lord seems to be a fool.
So much time has passed, and he hasn't seen a single resident on the island, not even a single field or a single new building.
That coward on the island seems to have no idea how things will develop.
If it weren't for the newbie protection, Derek was confident he could bring that island under the rule of the Holy Rome Alliance within ten minutes.
Derek had gone to that island countless times.
He hadn't even expected to see the lord this time, but then his clone crew suddenly came over and reported that they had spotted people on the island.
Derek immediately perked up, grabbed the cheap binoculars, and sure enough, he could vaguely see a figure moving on the island.
"Quickly! Get the bows and arrows! Prepare to shoot the people on the island!"
Derek shouted excitedly.
There is another way to attract new users.
That means killing the lord, then you can obtain their inheritance and freely seize their territory.
Given the foolish man on the island's disdain for him, and the fact that the island had no troops, Derek had long ago decided to make it his own territory.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have come so many times so diligently.
Wow!
The idle crew members on the ship all drew their bows and aimed in unison at the figure on the island.
Derek looked at the figure standing on the beach through his binoculars, his excitement growing. The distance between them was rapidly decreasing, from a few kilometers to a few hundred meters.
But the fool on the island remained motionless.
This is a fantastic opportunity!
Just as Derek was about to give the order to fire the arrows.
Suddenly, a bright flame rose from the island and flew over at an extremely fast speed.
"What was that?" Derek asked curiously, putting down his binoculars. Then he saw something flying rapidly toward them, followed by a loud bang that exploded nearby.
The strange flying object did not hit directly.
However, the enormous impact caused the ship to tilt.
Derek collapsed onto the deck.
The clone crew members around them were even more uneasy, constantly asking what that thing was.
Derek's memories gradually
Awakened, he remembered seeing those flying, exploding things before joining the game...
He's a modern man, after all.
"That's... a rocket?"
"Why does something like this exist now?!"
"Turn around! Turn around immediately!!!"
Derek screamed.
He couldn't understand how anyone could have developed technology to the point of using rockets.
They're still playing with bows and arrows!
At most, he'd play with matchlock guns.
But what the hell is a rocket launcher?!
"Is it Wishing Machine?" Derek thought of the only possibility, but he couldn't understand where the energy points for wishing for an RPG came from.
On the island.
Zhang Tianyuan was wearing full protective gear, protected from head to toe, and was holding a pair of binoculars, observing the situation several hundred meters away.
"Didn't win."
"Let's fire another one!" With that, Zhang Tianyuan loaded the rocket and pulled the trigger again.
laugh!
Before Derek's ship could correct its course, it was hit squarely by a rocket, and with a deafening roar, the ship began to disintegrate in the violent explosion.
Zhang Tianyuan watched the wrecked ship slowly sink to the bottom of the sea before turning his attention to the system notification that had just popped up:
"Congratulations! You have defeated Lord Derek and acquired some of his resources. His territory is now open; please go and occupy it as soon as possible."
School blueprints, No. 4
Level 1 Design Institute Blueprint, No. 1
Wishing Machine wish count 1
Zhang Tianyuan was stunned for a moment before he realized that he had just killed a lord.
He opened the panel to check the rewards.
All four school blueprints are for beginners and aren't very interesting.
The key point is that [ Level 1 Design Institute Blueprint ].
This is a tall building resembling a grand hall, with a huge compass sculpture in the center, giving it a futuristic feel.
Zhang Tianyuan curiously clicked on the introduction:
" Level 1 Design Institute Blueprint can be enchanted once every sixty days after completion. The enchantment effect depends on the type of blueprint and its completion level."
Zhang Tianyuan was immediately startled.
Can this design institute enchant blueprints?
Are there those kinds of blueprints that can be automatically printed out after resources are provided, and even come with various enhancements?
Just as Zhang Tianyuan was filled with joy...
Hundreds of kilometers away.
A minor disturbance occurred at the headquarters of the Holy Roman Empire Alliance...
