Chapter 249 [Ten Thousand Years of Human Emperor]

This must be considered a huge secret gossip?

Nene looked carefully at the aunt who claimed to be a vegetable seller. Suddenly, he heard so many secrets about Merlin, the God Emperor Odin, and King Lantis, and other worldly great figures. Not only did he not have any smugness or joy, but he became more panic.

This...this...

She knew so many things, and so many secret past events of Merlin, one by one, was the only one that she knew - what was the origin of this woman herself?

But Sofia himself seemed to have fallen into a certain mood and melancholy, so he simply grabbed the bottle of wine, raised his head and ate it, drank the wine in the bottle in one breath, then slapped the table hard and shouted: "Get the wine!"

The one-eyed person hiding behind immediately responded, and walked out with his eyebrows down. Seeing the empty bottle of wine in front of Sofia and the blush on his wife's face, he couldn't help but smile and said, "I said, you have never been drunk, so you should drink less."

When Aunt Sofia heard this, her eyes widened, she slapped the table hard, and shouted, "Where are so many nonsenses coming from? Just take them if you ask them to take them!"

One-eyed one-eyed person was obviously a typical person who was afraid. He immediately shrank his neck and ran away with sighs. After a while, he brought a bottle of wine and placed it on the table, but he stood there, looking at Aunt Sofia with some concern, and refused to leave for a long time.

"What are you doing here?" Aunt Sofia raised her eyelids, snorted, and shouted domineeringly: "Women's talk, men should not get involved - do your work later!"

As soon as he said this, Nene was nervous and heard it, and almost laughed out loud on the spot - this woman who claimed to be selling vegetables was so fierce. It seemed that this tavern owner had a lot of trouble on weekdays.

One-eyed sighed, but due to his wife's tyranny, he did not dare to disobey it. He could only turn around and run back to the back, but hid at the door, pricking his ears and eavesdropping.

Aunt Sofia didn't know how her husband was doing, and didn't care about this. She picked up the bottle in front of her, but this time she sent it to her mouth and refused to drink it. Finally, she sighed and put the bottle back on the table. She looked up and stared at Nene, but suddenly asked a sudden question:

"Little girl, do you know, who are the strong people in the world today?"

Nene was stunned. The question was a little confused, but she hesitated for a moment, thought a little, and replied: "I heard that there were several great magicians in the Byzantine Empire Magic Union. They had superb magic power. They were just low-key in their daily lives and did not want to be exposed to others. I think they were all very strong. I also heard that there was a great sword master who decided in the past. He had saved Emperor Contos's life on the battlefield. He once fought against the God Emperor Odin. He thought he was also a strong man with great martial arts skills. As for the others... In the Odin Empire, the God Emperor himself had no need to mention, and there was Hasting, known as the God God of Odin. He fought countless times in his life, but he had never been defeated. I don't know how many Byzantine generals had been killed under the Triangle Battle Gun. I think he was also a top strong man... As for Landis, it was naturally Merlin..."

Speaking of this, Nene suddenly had a flash of eyes and smiled, "You old man, although I didn't see your origin, I think I am also a hidden strong man..."

Aunt Sofia looked like a smile on her face: "What else?"

"And..." Nene frowned and thought: "I can't think of it."

Aunt Sofia looked at Nenedo and suddenly asked, "You talked about Byzantium, Odin, and Landis, but why did you forget the last force on the mainland?"

When she said this, her eyes flashed, smiling, and her expression seemed to be a bit mocking.

When Nene heard this, his expression was slightly moved: "You..."

"Don't pretend to be stupid, I'm talking about Babylonian Freedom!"

Nene's face changed suddenly and she closed her mouth tightly.

If we talk about the three major forces in the human world today, they are naturally Byzantine, Odin, and the Kingdom of Landis. But in addition to these three major forces, there is another special existence: the Babylonian Freedom.

However, compared with these three powerful countries, the Babylonian Freedom is so small.

As a powerful force, the territory of the Babylonian Free Territory is weak. As the name suggests, the so-called Free Territory is just a city-state. In the east of the mainland, it is located in the central and northern part of the chaotic Territory, which is another powerful force of mankind.

Speaking of territory, the Babylonian free territory's sphere of influence is not even one tenth of that of a county in the Byzantine Empire.

But speaking of the long history, this third-party force that exists outside the powerful empires of the mainland has even a longer and legendary history than the two thousand-year-old empires, Byzantine and Odin.

The Babylonian Freedom is centered on the oldest city on the continent. The Babylonian Old City is the only city with the Freedom... and the only territory.

In the ancient history of the continent, it is said that in ancient times, in the ancient human world before the Byzantine Empire and Odin appeared, there was once a huge empire. The territory of the ancient human empire encompasses the entire continent, and even most of the territory of the current two empires, Byzantine and Odin, belonged to the great human empire in ancient times.

Unify the entire continent, with a vast territory and a strong national power... It is said that the ancient empire was once the most powerful era of human beings, and even other races had to bow their heads to the human beings at that time.

But unfortunately, in the long history, the once-promising ancient super empire finally collapsed. After several years of time and the long history of changes, the continent finally split into countless small countries. Thousands of years ago, Byzantine unified the southern part of the continent, while Odin unified the tribes in the north and south, which became a situation of confrontation between the north and the south of the continent.

The ancient empire that once existed did not even record much of its history in the past.

However, this ancient city of Babylon was once the imperial capital of the super empire in ancient times, but has been preserved.

If the Osgilia Emperors are the most powerful cities on the continent now and the crystallization of the Byzantine Empire civilization, then the ancient city of Babylon is the oldest city in the world of mankind and the remains left behind in the most glorious era of the human world.

The city of Babylon is located in the Confused Territory. From a geographical perspective, it is just sandwiched between the three regions of Odin, Byzantium, and Confused Territory. From ancient times to the present, it has maintained its status outside the two empires and has its own unique system.

Although this power is extremely weak and only has one city, for thousands of years, no matter how the two empires of Odin and Byzantine expanded to the outside world, they have never had the idea of ​​babylon.

There is even more strange thing. There is a similar legend in both the Odin Empire and the Byzantine Empire: the royal family left an iron rule since ancient times: Babylon is a place that will never be conquered!

For thousands of years, the Odin Empire and the Byzantine Empire have fought peace and harmony. Whether Odin has overwhelmed Byzantine power or Byzantine power has overwhelmed Odin, the two empires have never sent even one soldiers to fight the Babylonian Freedom.

As a small city-state, the Babylonian Freeland has always maintained this free attitude. Although the population of Freeland is not large, most of them regard themselves as the inheritors of the ancient authentic direct civilizations of human beings.

Moreover, because it has not been baptized by war for thousands of years, the Babylonian Freedom became the only safest and most transcendent force on the continent. Because of such a peculiar status, the Babylonian Freedom became the most prosperous commercial area on the continent and the richest force in legend.

After thousands of years of peace and the eternal neutrality between the two empires, the Babylonian Freedom has accumulated amazing wealth. Legend has it that there are merchants from all over the world almost every day, with amazing transaction volumes every day, and almost all the most rare and rare goods in the world can be found there.

Legend has it that the walls of Babylon City are all made of gold bricks, and every household does not need lights to illuminate them, but night pearls and gems. The city is bright and bright for many years. Merchants of any country or force can be freely protected and not harassed there.

Furthermore, when the two empires on the mainland often encounter situations of conquest against the enemy. Once the two countries declare war, they will naturally begin to retreat and leave each other. Once this time comes, it is often time for Babylon to freely lead the way to make a fortune - after all, once the business path is cut off, the merchant groups of the two countries must continue to trade, and if Babylon free leads to a permanently neutral third party, it is necessary to carry out the transaction.

Over time, the City of Babylon has another name: the City of Eternity.

As a free regime, the Babylonian political system is different from the three powerful countries of mankind in the world. It is not a pure monarchy, but a senate system that existed in Byzantine.

In the Babylonian Freedom, there is a freedom guild who manages the management of cities, including setting tax rates, controlling the operation of cities, etc. All members of this guild are merchants - in Babylon, it is also the only area in the world where there is no traditional "noble" class.

And in Babylon, there is a special and transcendent existence, which is the "City Lord" of Babylon.

The city lord is hereditary system. Legend has it that the city lord is a descendant of the ancient human super empire. He has the noblest bloodline among humans in the world today and is the real gate of the emperor and nobles of thousands of years! If we must say that the only "noble" exists in the Babylonian Freedom Territory, then it is the "city lord" of Babylon.

The city lord has a transcendent and noble status in Babylon, but he does not have absolute dominance like the emperors like other empires. Although he is transcendent in his position, most of the power is still in the hands of the guild. The city lord only has legal immunity and the right to pardon. At the same time, the city lord is not allowed to engage in any form of business, but he can obtain a certain proportion of taxes from the annual commercial income of the city of Babylon.

With thousands of years of peace and endless trade exchanges, you can imagine how amazing wealth such a noble family has accumulated!

It can be said that if we talk about the most powerful families in the human world, some people might think it is the Byzantine royal family, the Odin royal family, or the Landis royal family...

But if we talk about the richest family, there is no doubt that they must be the lord of Babylon!

This series of imperial and noble bloodlines that have been for thousands of years have long been given to the world as a halo of mysterious legends, especially their pride and dignity.

There was a legend that hundreds of years ago, the Byzantine Empire was once the most powerful era, which almost made the Odin Empire breathless, and it was very likely to defeat Odin, and even reunify the continent. At that time, the Byzantine Emperor was proud and Zhiman, and he finally had the idea of ​​this fat piece of Babylon. However, due to the iron law of the royal family in the legend, he did not dare to send troops to invade, but came up with an idea and sent an envoy to Babylon to freely seek the meeting with the city lord at that time.

I hope to marry the eldest daughter of the city lord as his wife and promise that once he gets married, he will give her the status of queen. The Byzantine emperor's idea was also very cunning: Legend has it that the city lord at that time had no son. After the city lord died, after the city lord married the city lord's daughter, the emperor could justify his inheritance of the city lord's position: with himself, he had the two identities of the Byzantine Emperor and the city lord of Babylon, and naturally he would have the opportunity to annex Babylon in the future by peaceful means.

But in the end, the city lord refused the powerful Byzantine royal family without hesitation.

The reason why the city lord at that time refused was extremely arrogant: bloodline!

His reply was: Although you are the emperor of Byzantine, when it comes to bloodline, your ancestors are just a low-level nobleman. My Babylonian family was a real human emperor in ancient times! How can you, a native chicken and wild dog, be qualified to be my daughter? When it comes to qualifications, any civilian in the city of Babylon, if you follow it, your ancestors' bloodline may be ten times more noble than your Byzantine emperor! If you want to marry my daughter, wait until you really unify the mainland and become the common emperor of the human race!

Although the Byzantine emperor who had been stolen after taking it, he was helpless to Babylon and had no choice but to give up in the end.

There is another legend of the Babylonian Freedom Territory: after all, it is located next to the Chaos Territory!

Although the two great empires of humanity will not provoke it, the Confusion Corps is not the world of human beings! There are still elves, legendary giants and other races inhabited.

Those races have been not very friendly to humans since ancient times.

But Babylon is located in such a wilderness, but it is safe and sound. Both the proud elves and giants rarely provoke the Babylonian Freedom. Even the irritable dwarves are willing to trade some of the iron tools they forged with the Babylonian Freedom.

The ultimate reason is that in the legend, there is a mysterious refugee in the city of Babylon.
