The Azeroth Continent.
Since the tripartite talks in Meazza, the entire continent has finally entered a true era of peace. The era of endless war has ended, and countless displaced civilians can finally return to their hometowns or find new homes and begin to recuperate.
In particular, the Northern Region Southern Region were almost completely rebuilt on the basis of the original power structure and social class. The series of unprecedented and strange policies of the [ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ] changed the views of countless people and the social class, which greatly benefited the common people in the Southern Region and Northern Region, especially the lower class.
This change triggered a series of chain reactions.
Most notably, the entire human social system has unleashed an unprecedented vitality.
Civilization progressed at a speed never seen in the past thousand years. Whether it was Dou Qi, magic, agriculture, architecture, art, medicine, or music, all experienced an explosive growth and flourished rapidly in a short period of time.
War and the new policies of the [ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ] are considered the root of progress.
Moreover, the existence of the Northern Region Empire is a deterrent to the entire continent. Ever since the [ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ] revealed his intention not to expand and his expectation of peace, the flames of war on the entire continent were quelled almost overnight. In particular, the Barcelona Empire and the Juventus Empire, which had always been extremely warlike, almost became extremely subdued.
No one wants to rashly ignite the flames of war at this time, incurring the wrath of the [ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ], for then no one would be able to withstand the Northern Region Empire's thunderous blow.
Especially now that even the Holy Church has sided with the [ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ], the implementation of Platini and Blatter's policies, and the return of Stábile, mark the end of the confrontation between the Northern Region Empire and the Holy Church, and the beginning of a honeymoon period with lightning speed. When the [ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ] truly becomes a man who holds the two prominent powers of Emperor of the Northern Region Empire and Pope of the Church, as agreed in the tripartite talks at Meazza, then no one or any force on the entire continent will be able to oppose him.
Of course, there were also some forces and individuals who were unwilling to see the [ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ] dominate the world, and they secretly carried out various provocative actions to try to incite war between the Northern Region Empire and the Holy Church. Unfortunately, all such schemes failed under the iron-fisted suppression of the two giants and forces.
Now, everyone on the entire continent is eagerly awaiting the day when the Northern Region Empire and the Holy Church will unite as one.
As time goes by, the agreed-upon date for the tripartite talks is fast approaching.
On this day, the eyes of the entire continent were turned to the Holy Mountain of Sicily Island.
As agreed, the Human Emperor of the Northern Region will receive his coronation from the old Pope Stábile here, officially becoming the Lord of the Holy Church. This will be a glorious day that determines the fate of the entire continent and changes the course of the continent's history for a thousand years.
Half a month ago, the emperors, top nobles, and renowned super-powerful figures of the major super empires on the continent all received invitations from the Holy Church, hoping that these important figures could attend the coronation ceremony and witness this historic moment. Many people considered it an honor to receive such an invitation, because it meant that their status and position had been recognized by the continent's overlord.
Three days ago, Sicily Island became incredibly bustling.
For the first time in over a thousand years of mainland history, so many non- Holy Church figures have appeared on Sicily Island. Knights in silver armor stand in neat formation, white-robed priests chant the Holy Spirit's hymn, and the entire Sicily Island is bathed in a silvery glow of victory, with angels with outstretched wings seemingly dancing in the distance...
Amidst the fervor of the crowd, Alexander, the Human Emperor of the Northern Region, descended upon the island.
This is an unprecedented event.
Apart from Pope Stábile, who was unable to attend the welcoming ceremony in person due to old age and poor health, all other high-ranking members of the Holy Church were present at the welcoming site, paying their respects to the [ Human Emperor of the Northern Region ] with the courtesy due to subjects meeting His Majesty.
On the Northern Region Empire's side, eight of the legendary twelve Gold Saint who guarded the twelve sacred palaces of the [ Sky City ] and the veteran warriors who had followed Alexander since he was just King of Chambord arrived. In addition, there were also powerful figures from the Northern Region Empire's Dark Hall and the [ Black-Robed Holy Temple ]... These super-powerful figures from the Northern Region Empire, who have recently been making waves, all appeared in Sicily Island.
Clearly, both sides attach great importance to this coronation ceremony.
On this day, almost all the most noble people, the most powerful warriors, and the strongest forces on the entire Azeroth Continent gathered on Sicily Island. If someone could wipe them all out, the entire continent would instantly descend into chaos.
However, it is clear that this possibility does not exist.
Everything is ready, except for the east wind.
On this day, the sea surged, the Sun rose from the eastern horizon, and as the first rays of light shone on the Holy Mountain of Sicily Island, the coronation ceremony officially began.
Majestic knights, clad in silver armor and riding white warhorses, circled the beaches of Sicily Island. Silver and red banners fluttered in the morning breeze like dragons. Priests chanted hymns of the Holy Spirit on the steps leading to the shrine, their voices echoing across the land and sea. The clear harmonies of the choir's beautiful young girls and boys added to the sacred atmosphere...
This is an essential part of the coronation ceremony for a new pope.
Meanwhile, the top nobles and super strong individuals from across the continent appeared before the sacred hall atop the Holy Mountain. The 1,001 white jade steps radiated a sacred glow under the first rays of the morning sun...
This is indeed a sacred place.
Everyone felt as if their souls had been Cleansing amidst the songs of the creatures that filled the entire island and the white light.
In the distance, on the white steps, the powerful figures of the Northern Region Empire slowly appeared one by one.
They were the most loyal warriors, standing on both sides, forming a path of Glory, kneeling on one knee, raising their weapons high, their bodies surging with a powerful aura, like gods welcoming their king.
Then Sun Fei appeared in front of the first step of the 1001 steps.
He, dressed in a pristine white robe, linked arms with the beautiful and flawless Queen Angela in a long black dress on his left and with the Valkyrie Elena in bright red armor on his right. The three of them stood side by side, attracting the attention of the entire world. Amidst the chorus of songs from the heavens, they slowly ascended the steps!
The church bells rang at that moment.
The bell would ring once for every step Sun Fei and his two companions took up!
The emperors, nobles, and powerful figures from various countries on both sides of the steps all stood up in unison. No one dared to sit rudely at this moment, because the man and two women walking past them could now be considered the most powerful figures on the continent.
At that moment, almost everyone had a misconception.
This scene seemed strangely familiar.
Especially when everyone's gaze fell on Sun Fei and Angela, this feeling became even clearer; this scene had definitely happened before, as if...
