Southern Continent’s "Treasure Tree Bay," a large fortress "Tetadis Fortress" jointly managed by the Tulip Alliance.
Exclusive lounge for the captains.
A sharp officer with short brown hair dressed in the Tyrone Kingdom’s military uniform, put down the expired newspaper in his hand, sincerely praising the Colonel Captain beside him:
"Ah, Captain Gel, your family has truly produced an extraordinary person!"
For those who have been stationed in the remote areas of the Southern Continent for a long ti, besides the military’s internal bulletins, they can only rely on these expired newspapers to learn about news from the other two continents.
And this issue of the "Beckler Post" dedicates an entire front page to praise the Deputy Commander of the New Continent Guard, Brigadier General Aiven Galliot, and his trendous contribution in leading his subordinates to capture the mastermind and solve the rampant infectious epidemic in the New Continent.
At the sa ti, to comnd his achievents, the Royal dical Society has prepared to award him a Hippocrates Level 1 dal, which hasn’t been awarded for at least three years.
The nearby captains of the stationed fleet all chuckled and agreed:
"If my son were half as excellent as Brigadier General Galliot, I’d laugh myself awake from my dreams."
" too!"
"By the way, Colonel Gel, find a chance for the juniors to sit together. My daughter is pretty and a top talent at the Tulip Art Academy... Hey, hey, why are you pulling ?"
As colleagues who have worked with Gel for a long ti, they naturally know the relationship between the two very well. Although of different surnas, the Brigadier General is practically the sa as Gel’s eldest son.
So even received several high-quality potions, which are extrely hard to obtain through the kingdom’s channel, from Gel’s hand, all thanks to Aiven who hasn’t forgotten his uncle after achieving success.
Receiving the treatnt of being the center of attention, Gel also felt emotional, originally predicting that Aiven would beco a general within ten years. How much ti has passed for it to be the ti of an uncle benefiting from his nephew’s success?
However... this feeling is truly damn good!
Gel’s gaze penetrated through the fortress window, across the infinite Black Sea, as if seeing the vast continent on the other side of the ocean.
"This probably isn’t your limit, Aiven. But I should be there soon too, once the stationed mission is over, I’ll focus on my breakthrough!"
Instinctively touched the amber potion that never left his person in his pocket.
....
"Treasure Tree Bay" is located 2300 kiloters north of Agulhas Cape, the southernmost point of the continent.
At the beginning of the Southern Continent colonization, the dry and rain-scarce, subtropical, semi-desert climate area was essentially an uninhabitable land.
But as latecors in colonization, the Tulip Alliance had no qualification to be picky.
After securing a barely better spot in the Zaire Basin, they helplessly continued to explore areas contemptuously disregarded by the stronger nations further south.
Maybe it was really a change of luck, as they went on to discover two great treasures in this barren land at the Southern tip of the continent!
One of these is the Witwatersrand Basin found in the central plateau area.
It contains a gold-bearing conglorate belt stretching hundreds of kiloters, producing 10 grams of gold per ton of gold-bearing conglorates on average, with proven gold reserves of 12,000 tons, known as the Land Gold Mine.
It’s also one of the foundations for the initial rise of the Ilya Kingdom after discovering the new route.
As the gold mine’s proven reserves continued to increase, the Ilya Royal Family soon realized they couldn’t monopolize it, thus, through layers of interest exchange, each nation in the Tulip Alliance now holds shares in the gold mine.
They united the entire Tulip force to hold this firmly!
The other is "Treasure Tree Bay" located on the west coast.
Even if the climate, soil, and geographical location of this place are harsh to the point of being unsuited for large trees to grow, the wizards’ surveys found that it is actually at the crucial "Magic Elent" node of the whole continent.
The extraordinary power created a batch of unique oak species—"iron oak".
"Iron oak," as a top-tier shipbuilding material, excels in hardness, toughness, and water-swelling rate. The best quality of it is called "Treasure Tree," a material used for constructing legendary battleships, also the origin of the na "Treasure Tree Bay".
Thanks to the addition of extraordinary power, legendary battleships existed even before the first battleship launched in a true sense. It’s only after that the classification of ships from level one to six occurred.
Subsequently.
Struggles around "Treasure Tree Bay" have been the most intense, the gold mine might require weighing the consequences of one against six, but "Treasure Tree Bay" is like a natural nuclear arsenal in this era, sothing strong nations will do whatever it takes to get a share!
Especially as the Tulip discovered this treasure spot extrely late, only after the pattern of the New Continent’s colonies was established.
By then, Hilus already possessed the capital of an overlord, carrying the boundless might of utterly destroying the two great Native Empires of the Atrean people, their approach started to appear domineering. anwhile, the Desert Kingdom Heimar remained increasingly complacent, resting on its advantageous geographical position, subsisting on past glories.
With Hilus, the Tulip Alliance, and Atlant as the main forces capable of taking a bite, they fought over a dozen battles of various sizes.
Finally, with a contract, the interests in "Treasure Tree Bay" were fixed among them.
As the original discoverer, the most powerful Ilya, Phaletis, and Tyrone of the Tulip are conducting substantial governance over the place.
