Dengzhou. Schroeder's heart pounded uncontrollably as he watched the moving steam locomotive. The stimulation he had received in Dengzhou these past two days was quite significant. Before coming to the Great Yu Empire, he had never paid attention to this country, until the Dutch brought back steam engines from the Great Yu Empire and spread the news of the Great Yu Empire's prosperity throughout Europe. This made King Frederick II of Prussia quite interested. Especially when he learned that France…-

On Thursday morning, a well-dressed Luca stood outside the Liji Agricultural Group's office building and let out a heavy breath. This kind of monopolistic corporate group still put a lot of pressure on him. The Federation was always a place where many interesting or noteworthy things happened. If you went to the countryside and found an ordinary, uneducated farmer and asked for his opinion on the Liji Group... He would, in that moment, utter every dirty word he knew in his life to "praise" the…-

In the morning, Corinda brought back the newspapers from the paper box and placed them by the side of the table. Lance casually flipped through them. The front page of Golden Port Today had several headlines. One of them caught Lance's attention—"The Cassia Family has Officially Become a Thing of the Past." He turned to the fourth page. The subtitles on the fourth and fifth pages were "The Demise of the Cassia Family." There were many photos inside, all in pairs for comparison. The first to…-

Go to the Desert to sell wine? It must be a trustworthy person. So, the scope was narrowed as much as possible, preferably finding someone within the Li clan.

The autumn harvest was over, and the grain was stored in the granaries. The people of Hexi Fortress had completed the most important agricultural task of the year. The lively scene in the fields gradually faded. On the thousands of mu of land, only stubble and scattered stalks remained, empty and quiet, carrying a trace of loneliness after the harvest, waiting for the spring of the coming year to plant grain again. But this did not mean the people's farm work was over. There was even more…-

Li Xiao had just returned from Wuya Village, passing by Hedong Fortress just at noon. So he rested for a moment in Hedong Fortress, planning to set off for Hexi Fortress in the afternoon. Luo Ping wanted to prepare well and treat Li Xiao. But he was directly refused by Li Xiao. "Uncle Luo, we aren't strangers no need to be so polite." "It's the busy autumn harvest time now— work in every family is tight." "We can't delay the autumn harvest because of us." "Everyone should just do…-

“Ollie, you and Melancholy Uncle go first. I want to take the rest of the children and escape together. A true Hero should not fear hardship. I am a Knight. The Courage creed will grant me strength!” Arno said, his eyes clear and resolute. “Arno, your current strength is insufficient to protect these children and safely escape the fortress. You and Ollie go to the gathering point. I will find a way to lead this group of children out.” Ancestar said. “Melancholy Uncle…” Arno tried to say…-

“You will immediately use the shadows to summon all the dark priests at every node. We cannot wait. Since the legion has already been alerted, Moore Rona will certainly take action. We need to concentrate our forces and launch a preemptive strike!” The hooded figure in the main chair suddenly stood up, his voice slightly raised. “Alexius Rona, are you once again going to raise your hand against your own kin?” A seductive voice drifted in and out, sounding like fingers stroking a lover’s…-

Late at night, in the bushes behind the relief home, the orb of the Lesser Light Spell emitted a bright glow. Ancestar sat on a high branch, vigilantly watching the surroundings. “Ollie, I really don’t understand what an imaginary number is. Why do imaginary numbers exist?” Arno scratched his head, looking troubled and distressed at the exercise book. For Arno the poor student, being able to perform meditation with the Minimal Meditation Spell—the single-rune Spell Model of Lesser Mana…-

One week prior, Betty listened to the perfunctory words of Bayen the black cat at the gathering and sank into contemplation. She dragged Donna back home and immediately dedicated herself to research. “I don’t need to try and create a mechanical titan from the start. That is indeed too delusional!” Betty stared at the small steam boiler before her, deep in thought. “I should start with something simple and small-scale. A mechanical assist device, similar to armor, might be a good research…-
