Struggle in the Steam Age - Chapter 705
After urging the marriage from his old father before, Lawrence also realized the imperfections of his previous ideas. Therefore, after the Earl’s Mansion was completed two weeks later, the wedding was naturally listed on the schedule.
According to the original plan, the Earls Court should not be completed until a year later. However, due to the recent wave of immigration and the influx of wealth, with sufficient manpower and equipment, this mansion will naturally be completed ahead of schedule.
More importantly, after this period of construction, the entire island has changed from a remote and wild island into a jewel in the southeast of the Star Sea, making the entire sea area prosperous.
Although from the point of view of the nobility, it is indeed a big problem that Lawrence does not have a legal heir. But considering Lawrence’s religious identity and relationship with Nora, this situation is not a big problem.
Because even if he does not have his own children now, but with a regular church as the backing, he can naturally maintain the continuity of all policies on the island without any problems.
Although traditionally this kind of wedding is not suitable for inviting too many outsiders, Lawrence, who wants to give Syphil a grand wedding to make up for the lack of engagement, naturally has a compromise.
So at the wedding, not only did Nora personally show up and produced some miraculous audio-visual effects to send her own blessings, but also those islanders who got a holiday because of Lawrence’s marriage also stood on the side of the road and cheered. Expressed his blessings to them.
For Lawrence, the life after marriage is not much different from before marriage. As for the issue of heirs, he is not in a hurry for the time being. After all, the higher the transcendent level creatures in this world, the more difficult it is to reproduce. This is especially true for warlocks like Lawrence whose power comes from blood.
For example, in some sorcerer families with a long heritage, cases of not giving birth to children for more than ten or twenty years after marriage abound.
Therefore, the retainers who were well aware of this situation did not urge Lawrence overtly and secretly in this regard.
After all, this matter was not urged, and more importantly, Lawrence’s religious power, even if there is really no heir, can turn this territory into a church leader, and then everything will be business as usual.
So under this premise, Lawrence finally stopped his busy pace for a while and ushered in the first long vacation after coming to this world to be able to completely relax himself.
Although as a lord and church leader, he is not suitable to leave the island too far alone, but only around Neuschauer there are many places to relax for everyone to relax.
So Lawrence has developed a very good vacation plan, intending to take this opportunity to spend a quiet honeymoon with Syfier.
As a result, only halfway through the honeymoon, Nora appeared nervously out of her kingdom of God, and then found Lawrence and asked him to do something.
“Please, I only rest for a month. What is the urgent need for everyone to mobilize.” Lawrence looked at her helplessly after discovering that it was the little doll who came to the door.
“Sorry, my brother, it’s really embarrassing to disturb you on your honeymoon, but the incident I’m encountering right now is likely that the two of us have a very close relationship.”
After hearing what Nora said, Lawrence also realized the importance of the current situation, so he quickly greeted Syfiel and left the beautiful golden beach on the island of New Sauer.
When Lawrence got dressed and got on the carriage to Earls Court. So Nora floated across from his seat while explaining to Lawrence what she had encountered this time.
“A while ago, jackals I had never seen appeared in my kingdom of God. After questioning, I realized that those jackals came from the central part of Yanzhou on the main plane.”
“Central Yanzhou!?” Lawrence showed a look of shock. Because of his childhood experience, he will prepare in advance and summarize afterwards as long as he has the conditions.
For example, after Lawrence and the others found the astral plane before, he specifically used the resources at hand to inquire a series of knowledge about Jackals and learned about this race.
The Jackals are a wise race with a small population, and they have experienced the dawn of civilization almost at the same time as humans. In the age of the ancient Nile civilization, they, together with humans and dwarves, constituted the core race of that civilization.
However, after the large-scale invasion of the lower planes induced by natural disasters in the later period of the ancient Nile civilization completely destroyed this civilization, the jackals who grew up with this civilization also suffered a fatal blow in the disaster.
Moreover, unlike the humans and dwarves of the Nile civilization, the Jackals mainly settled near Amarna, the capital of the Nile civilization. And the center of this disaster is Amarna.
In the conspiracy that destroyed the entire Nile civilization, the power from the lower space colluded with the fallen aristocracy and used a cruel and evil blood sacrifice to completely destroy the core of this civilization.
After losing the ruling core, a civil war broke out in the Nile civilization that was already decaying at that time. In turn, the blood and souls of the dead conjure more evil existences.
In the end, the entire civilization was destroyed in the flames of war and civilization. At the same time, most of the land on which one lived was also destroyed by various evil and death forces.
Naturally, the intelligent creatures living on this land also have to move to other places, in order to continue to be able to thrive, instead of disappearing completely in the long river of history.
It is different from humans, dwarves or other ethnic minorities. At that time, the Jackal villages, which were the core of the warrior class of the Nile civilization, were basically all distributed in the core area of the disaster, so the seven or eight layers of power were lost in the first place.
In the ensuing civil war, as the main force of the war, it was difficult for them to stay out of the matter, and then they were further severely weakened in the **** civil war.
So when the power of evil and death began to expand, bit by bit eroding the original fertile and peaceful land and forcing the former settlers to leave, the overall strength of the Jackal was already less than 5% of the original.
To make matters worse, at this time, the jackals who lost their leadership core due to the collapse of the capital were scattered throughout the Nile River basin in a very scattered state, so their escape route was naturally scattered and independent.
According to the information that Lawrence can find now, Jackals at that time had two main choices. One of them is eastward into the emerging Nineveh civilization and survive as a minority group.
The other is all the way west, scattered scattered along the series of fertile coastal plains on the southern shore of the Sea of Earth. UU reading www.uukanshu.com restored the state of one small tribe after another in the early days.
These two Jackal races still exist, but they have basically forgotten all their ancestors and are no different from the locals.
Especially after God Habi was hit hard and fell in that accident, they quickly abandoned their original beliefs and chose the same beliefs as those around them after finding that there was no response to prayers.
This is why Nora didn’t pay too much attention to it after obtaining the priesthood of Jackal, because according to tradition, racial gods cannot do whatever they want with their own race, and they are also subject to various rules.
Although it was because of polytheistic beliefs, Nora could also spread her beliefs to the group of jackals. But when the other party has the main belief, her belief is at best an auxiliary belief.
Moreover, Nora can also be sure that apart from the two groups of jackals scattered on both sides of the Nile River, she did not actively contact jackals in other regions.
Therefore, even she felt baffled by the existence of these jackals from the central area of Yanzhou.
