Chapter 1405 Three Forces

"This Nia Angel is quite interesting..." Lin Jiu sighed in his heart. While letting his heirs inherit the empire, he asked the queen to train the successors who were secretly waiting for the Solitude of Fire. At the same time, the documents about the Dark Abyss, which have little effect on the monarch but are very important to the inheritors of the Fire, are in the hands of the core of the royal family.

Lin Jiu thought about it for a while, but he didn't have any objections. On the contrary, he felt that this arrangement was very safe. Nia Angel made this arrangement because she obviously knew that the inheritor of the Fire was unknown and could not pass it on to future generations. Regarding core information, the most effective way to preserve it is to have it in the hands of the monarch of a powerful empire.

The Niah Empire is still the most powerful kingdom on the Fahd Continent. Even if Lin Jiu does not appear now, without the intervention of the power of the dark abyss, the Niah Empire can still exist for a long time, until the arrival of the inheritors of the Fire.

At the same time, the literature and information about the Dark Abyss can also be well preserved and not easily leaked. Lin Jiu was thinking about an issue, which was how dangerous the Dark Abyss was in Nia Angel's eyes, and the relationship between the Fire Inheritor and the Dark Abyss.

If the Dark Abyss is extremely dangerous to Fahd Continent, and it is recorded in the documents held by the monarch, then he and Leo Angel, the current monarch, have a basis for cooperation.

As for the danger of the dark abyss, Lin Jiu is basically certain that it exists. After all, according to the information revealed in the world introduction, the root cause of the war among the kings is not the greed of human nature, which makes them turn against each other, but the erosion of the power of the dark abyss. The Dark Abyss is a special area specially marked by Samsara Paradise. That is Lin Jiu's destination, so Lin Jiu hopes not to waste time in the Niah Empire.

Lin Jiu looked at the time and suggested to Bert: "There are no secrets going on, or in other words, if there is anything, you should make it clear to your successor. We can chat while eating."

"It makes sense." Burt Angel called Roy in, and Gungun and Isabella also entered the house. Following Bert's instructions, Roy quickly arranged the food and set up a large table in the room. After all, with Bert's current situation, it is not convenient for him to move around outside. They could only enjoy the food in this room. Fortunately, the food standard of the Blackwater Legion was quite good.

Lin Jiu exchanged the information obtained with Isabella and Gungun. On the other side, Bert was also explaining Lin Jiu's identity to Roy and what they needed to do. Not surprisingly, this cold-faced young man named Roy was the helper for Lin Jiu's next actions.

At the end of the exchange, Bert and Roy explained the matters, which was actually similar to explaining the funeral affairs. Bert's current state was that he was barely surviving. It is very possible that Roy died on the back foot just as he started to take action with Lin Jiu on the front foot. After listening to Bert's explanation, Roy still had the same cold face, but he could detect a bit of curiosity in Lin Jiu's eyes.

You must know that Roy also has the surname Angel. Generations of the Nia Empire have basically grown up listening to the legend of the first king, Nia Angel, not to mention Roy, who is a descendant of the royal family. According to Bert, the man in front of him is his grandfather, the inheritor of Nia Angel, and the ring on his hand is the symbolic power of the First King.

"Okay, now let's talk about the situation in the Nia Empire." It is inevitable that Lin will deal with the current monarch Leo Angel after a long time. The man in front of him, Roy Angel, the monarch's nephew, was the bridge of communication between them.

Before formally dealing with the imperial royal family, Lin Jiu certainly had to understand the current Niah Empire. When he first arrived, he only had a little understanding of the overall situation in Fahd Continent, and he needed to explore the rest by himself.

The next person to speak was Bert. He was almost a veteran of three dynasties. He had experienced three generations of monarchs since the disappearance of the first king, including now. Although he does not care about the internal affairs of the empire, he is very familiar with the political institutions and power organs of the empire.

In addition to the king, the Nia Empire is dominated by three power agencies. They are the Noble Council with the nobility as the core; the Church of the Sun with the church as the center; and the military under the direct jurisdiction of the monarch.

Let’s talk about the power held by the Parliament of Nobles first. Among the country’s population, the number of nobles is at least 100,000, and its branches have a population of tens of millions. Among them, only noble patriarchs with pure blood can enter the Noble Council.

Parliament controlled most of the country's renewable resources and the distribution of land. It often granted land to nobles of lower descent, making them landlords, who then hired tenant farmers to work.

Outstanding noble patriarchs among the lesser nobles can apply to join the Noble Council and participate in higher-level imperial politics. The royal family is also a part of the nobility, but only a part. The origin of the Noble Council was the development of the subordinates who fought with Nia Angel, that is, the nobles.

Opposite to the Noble Council is the Church of the Sun, which was established by the First King Nia Angel himself. Believers account for more than 10% of the country's total population, about 450 million people. Among them are church elders who have certain autonomy in local affairs and also check and balance the landowners canonized by the aristocratic assembly. The highest presbytery of the church resident in the royal city is called the Holy Presbyterian Church.

Yaori Church can propose solutions to special events and important events. The honorary bishop of the church is held by every monarch of the Nea Empire. The purpose of the early king's promotion of the establishment of the church was mainly to deal with the erosion of the Fahd Continent by the power of the Dark Abyss. The name of the church is "Yuori", which also corresponds to the dark abyss.

The third party is the three divisions under the direct jurisdiction of the monarch, of which the Military Division, which represents the military power, is the core. The three departments are the Military Affairs Department, which controls the mobilization of the national army and takes orders directly from the monarch; the Supervision Department, in layman's terms, is used to supervise all officials; and the Central Department, with the monarch as the core, implements legislative power.

Lin Jiu also had a general understanding of the situation under Bert's introduction. The monarch's power is dominated by three departments, which respectively represent military power, legislative power, and supervisory appointment power.

The Noble Parliament, which represents the power of the nobility, controls the empire's logistical resources, such as land, food, commerce, etc., which is a power dominated by financial power.

The Church of the Sun is a force that Bert is relatively familiar with, because his research on the power of the dark abyss was carried out jointly with the elders of the Church of the Sun. As mentioned before, some strong men were eroded by the power of the dark abyss or the power of ancient dragons and transformed into great monsters. Such situations were handed over to the Yaori Church for handling. Simply put, the Church of the Sun is equivalent to an elite special forces unit that specializes in solving special incidents.

After roughly understanding these situations, Lin Jiu became very interested in Yaori Church. On the one hand, it is because he has the title effect and can play a role, and there is a high probability that the Church of the Sun will be a help; on the other hand, it is because of habit that every time he enters the mission world and hears about the church, he will always pay attention to it habitually. .

Among the three major forces, two of them were likely to provide him with assistance, which made Lin Jiu feel good. But there is no excitement. After all, it is all uncertain, and everything must be based on the actual situation.
