Chapter 1776: Queen of the North

?

Wang Jian is known to be loyal to Death Monarch. Someone this loyal would never disobey the order of Death Monarch

Even more so when Death Monarch is there in Pandemonium.

But Wang Jian has never go to the court to pay tribute to Death Monarch

Yes, Death Monarch is not the kind of person to give order to pay tribute.

Even when he is on the throne, he never needed to give any orders for the city lords and the kings and princes of Pandemonium to give him tribute but every year, there would always be tribute towards him

But there was an incident around four years ago where Sasha declare that Death Monarch summon Wang Jian to the capital.

No one feel weird about this.

Death Monarch had decreed it so Wang Jian, the most loyal subject of them all would surely come and accept the decree.

But somehow, this loyal subject did not go to the Capital.

And Sasha never issue this order again.

Wang Jian simply ask an envoy to come to the capital and questioned the court, Is the minister of the Central government the minister of Death Monarch or the minister of Sasha.

Nobody understood this line of questioning.

But the way the envoy of Wang Jian said, it is like a reminder to them.

Some people begins thinking of something and some reach a terrifying conclusion but no one said anything.

Until they are absolutely sure they would not do anything

But that is the beginning of the crack of trust between the military faction and the government faction.

These two factions had just reconciled but that reconciliation could only be glued by a strong leader on top to act like a father to these two unruly children.

When the father is there, they did not even dare to take a hard breath.

But if the father is an imposter, then the old conflict that has just been managed would surely be opened up again.

And this time, this should not be a matter of the military against the government forces. This is to oust the usurper.

The envoy that Wang Jian sent, was it simply to give a reason? Or is it to give a warning to remind them?

Sasha also remain silent about this matter.

This shock Pandemonium.

And then when this news is spread out, it shock the world

The shock is not what Wang Jian had done.

The shock is what didn't happen. Death Monarch is a carefree ruler. His method of governance could be said Laisse's faire.

He did not care that much about governing. He leave all the governance to the talented people of the world.

Those talents could show their talents to govern and Death Monarch has a powerful force to deter the world.

The minister rules the world for him but the minister must remember if they crossed the line, especially against Death Monarch, there would probably no ash would be left of you in existence if you anger such a powerful being out of nowhere.

He created the world order; he controls the world order and he is the world order.

there is never a case where someone disrespected him and disobey his order and not get punished.

Narleod had to give up an arm just because Death Monarch doesn't like his eyes.

If this happens, what would people think. So, even if only for face's sake, Death Monarch should punish Wang Jian.

But there is no punishment that came from the Death Monarch. And so, people began to feel weird.

Death Monarch did not dares to punish, Wang Jian dares to rebel?

This is very much absurd.

Even Sasha has come out and said that Wang Jian is still the most loyal subject of Pandemonium.

So, if this is the cases then why is there such a drama?>

And then a rumor begins to spread.

The Imposter Death Monarch. This is the only way to explain why Wang Jian that stupid loyal idiot could rebuke the imperial edict.

Yes, even though Death Monarch never specified what kind of government is for Pandemonium, many people could see that the government of Pandemonium is like an imperial family ruling the world.

One word to rule the world!

That is Death Monarch. There is kings that is loyal to him, princes and general to guards his border, and when he gives order, everyone would bow their heads and pledge their allegiance.

There is council, there is ministries, there is discussion, but when Death Monarch decided, his words trumps all laws and trumps all discussion

This is the absolute peak of absolute monarchy!

And they are not the only strange ones.

Lady Freya of the North also never sent any messengers to the Centre Palace.

All of this started ten years ago. Ten years of no contact with the Centre Palace

Out of the five regions of Pandemonium, Lady Freya has one of the fiercest and strongest

military unit.

Ten thousand strong men, valiant, brave and a little bit crazy.

It is called the Flying Berserk Cavalry unit.

Why is it call Flying Berserk Cavalry?

Because they all rode red winged horse into battle.

A Pegasus of a different breed.

This is Freya own innovation.

She found a way to breed Pegasus with certain horses that would provide her army with a

Pegasus like a Fergana horse

This Pegasus also has different abilities from normal Pegasus in that they could spew fire

from their nose and mouth.

They are also extremely loyal.

It took ten years to finally armed all of his ten thousand men with this horse.

It is said that even if Divine Comprehension leveler in the peak realm would find it hard to survive if Freya mobilize all ten thousand of her men with their horse

Before, the name of this unit does not make much sense. At that time only Freya rides a flying

horse.

But with the wealth that Freya had accumulated he managed to arm all of her men to the teeth

If Wang Jian army is known for their discipline, Freya army is known for their fierce and almost manic attack.

But this manic attack and this fierce unit is almost unbeatable when fighting against people of the same realms against them and leaping realm to fight is not something that is rare in this

unit.

And this is the sharpest blade in the north

The north is cold and full of icy mountains and Freya created a Hall for herself on the largest and tallest mountain in the northern region.

This mountain is in the middle of the region and it is so tall that it is above the clouds. There is a Hall that is so big it could fit twenty thousand people. This is where Freya lives with her soldiers. Below the mountains are villages and cities.

Wang Jian uses a slightly democratic way to rule his region with ministries and mostly is a hands-free manager that let the submanagers handle it for him, if any problems occurs. Freya is a good warrior, she has the Valkyrie class, fighting with people one on one, she rarely loses and almost invincible against people of the same realm.

But she also shares the same thing as Wang Jian. And that is her inability to lead and govern a

kingdom.

She is given the powerful title the Queen of the North, Lady Freya. Most of the people in her

region is like her.

Warriors, or soldiers, miners and workers.

Freya chooses military dictatorship to govern her kingdom of the north

But even though it is called military dictatorship, most of them time, living under her did not

constitute heavy labor nor suppression of any kind. Instead, Freya rarely governs.

when she needed something, she simply ask the laborer to find it for her.

Fail, and you would be thrown to prison.

Succeed, and you would be rewarded.

She tries to imitate Wang Jian methods but she did not have many talents in her region, so she

usually trusted important matters to her soldiers.

Wages of energy stones in Freya territory is the lowest among all the other four regions.

The way the North operates is by selling resources to the other regions while at the same time

keeping cost low in the region.

The way that Freya achieve this is strengthening the military and using the military.

She uses her men to clear out dungeons and dangerous zone.

She even create a dungeon for the people in the region and anytime anyone want to enter they

have to pay.

Escorting inside the dungeon, more energy stones.

Wanting to be a group and quickly break through from the Pillar Forming stage? You guessed

it.

More energy stones.

As for the more menial task, she let the machine from Order of Thinkers to do it. The surplus is

used to employ people to give them energy stone so that they could keep the economy going.

But most of the time, Freya is all over the north fighting some monsters and clearing out

monster nest.

Sometimes, she would go out of Pandemonium and hunt gigantic creatures. These gigantic creatures body then would be brought back to Pandemonium.

With most of these creature's body possessing great benefit to people, it would be sold in the

market or get auctioned off.
