Chapter 708 Federation Situation
Four-leaf Crystal Star Region, Emerald Skirt North District 5, Gladiolus Manor.
This is the manor built by the local government for Heshia, thanking her for her contribution to the improvement of the environment of Emerald Skirt. The manor covers a very large area, and the stand on the hill overlooks the large blue sea of flowers below. It is taken care of by the vampire maids on a daily basis, and Tilan occasionally lives here.
"Olesi, don't move yet."
In front of the dressing mirror, Tilan helped Orlesi comb her hair, then arranged her hairstyle and decorated it with a snow-blue and two-color headband.
Orlesi in the mirror opened her eyes slightly, with some expectation and happiness in her eyes. She was wearing a shoulder-baring long dress today, and the style and headband were the same, both with snowflake white and indigo as the main colors.
Compared with Tilan, Orlesi's figure and temperament are much more mature. When the two stand together, outsiders may think that Orlesi is the older sister type.
"Okay." After combing, Tilan put down the headband in her hand, so that it fell together with Orlesi's silver snow long hair, setting off each other.
Orles turned her head and looked at her current appearance. She was very satisfied and happy.
"Thank you, Tilan." She spoke more coherently now.
Then the two walked out of the house and walked along the path on the hillside. On both sides of the path were half-human-high blue flowers.
After returning to the Federation, Tilan did not hand Orles over directly, but continued to keep her by her side. For this, the elf families were very dissatisfied at first. After all, Orles was an ice elf and the most talented singer in the elf faction.
But in the end, Tilan still "convinced" those elf families, because without her risking great danger to rescue Orles, the other party would have died in that battle.
At the same time, Tilan also told those elf families that if they wanted Orles to survive the weak period and not be involved in the current chaotic situation, keeping her by their side was the best choice.
After the battle three years ago, many people thought that Orles had died on the battlefield. If she reappeared now, it would inevitably cause an uproar, disrupt the situation, and push the elf faction to the forefront. After experiencing the previous moral kidnapping and coercion, many people in power in the elf faction calmed down a lot. Considering that what Tilan said was true, they finally agreed to this decision. However, they also asked to send a certain number of elf maids to protect Orles and prevent her from being harmed.
Tilan did not object to this and readily agreed. So the two sides agreed to let Orles return to the central star field in five years.
In this way, Orles and Tilan came to the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Field together, and now they live in the Gladiolus Manor. The scenery here is very good, there are no people around, and it is also very quiet and safe.
"Tilan~" Orles walked in front and stepped into the soft grass below. There are also sparse flowers and plants here, but they are not dense, suitable for camping and playing.
"Okay." Tilan walked over and looked at Orles holding up a translucent water ball. The flowing water inside reflected the sunlight, which was quite beautiful.
After arriving at the grass, Orles and Tilan played water polo. The process was similar to beach volleyball, hitting it back and forth to prevent it from falling to the ground.
However, both of them were extraordinary people, so the specific play must be different from that of ordinary people.
"Explosion~ Ice ball~" Orles lifted the water ball in her hand, made it fly into the sky, froze it into a hard ice ball, and then suddenly flew out and shot at Tilan.
For such an attack, Tilan also used a method to deal with it. She put her hands in a triangle in front of her chest, and then a series of flowing rings flew over and continued to expand. When the water ball flew over these rings, it was detained by the force field in them, and its speed slowed down rapidly, and finally fell gently into Tilan's palm.
The pale white light flowed, and the ice ball that was originally frozen into one melted and turned into a crystal clear and flowing water ball again, spinning in Tilan's hand.
This time it was Tilan's turn. She gently threw the water ball up, then turned her fingers slightly, and the water ball above it spun rapidly and transformed into a ring shape.
After that, the girl waved her fingers, and the high-speed ring swooped down and flew out, rushing towards Orles with a large arc trajectory.
Orles also prepared several hexagonal ice shields for this. They quickly spliced together in the air to block the incoming water ring. The two rubbed against each other in the air, raising a large amount of ice debris. Then the water ring slowly slowed down and turned into a round sphere again, falling in front of Orles. This time it was her turn again.
In this way, you go back and forth, and the water ball keeps changing in the hands of the two, showing various trajectories and possibilities.
Although Tilan is absolutely sure to win, she doesn't have to win every game. In this situation, she would rather have fun with Orles, without thinking about winning or losing or suppressing the other party.
After two hours, Orles was finally a little tired of playing, and Tilan stopped, put the water ball in place, and walked over.
"Let's go sit over there for a while." The girl pointed to a small wooden stand with benches for resting and watching the scenery.
"Okay~" Orles stood there, stretched out her hand, and waited for Tilan to go over and hold her hand.
Seeing this scene, Tilan couldn't help but smile, then she quickened her pace a little and came to Orles' side, and then the two of them walked hand in hand to the stand on the hill.
Sitting here to rest, the breeze blew along the slope of the hill, bringing up many flowers and plants, and there was a faint fresh fragrance of flowers in the air.
After the two sat down, Orles talked about the happy things she had encountered recently and the new things she had learned. Tilan listened quietly, occasionally nodding and praising.
"Tilan, what was my personality like before? Those maids said that I used to be very confident and quite "noble." She actually didn't quite understand the word "noble" now.
"Before..." Tilan thought of the scene when they first met. At that time, Orles took the initiative to go to the podium to introduce herself. She really had the pride and generosity cultivated by the elf family, and she was also very proactive in many things.
"Probably like a white rose." Tilan thought of the flower language of white roses: purity, nobility, innocence, and pride.
"Really?" Hearing that Tilan also agreed, Orles felt that she must have been great in the past, and felt a little proud.
"Yes." Tilan replied with a smile.
Then the two of them leaned on the bench to look at the scenery. Tilan talked about some things in the past at school, the time she, Orles, Shui Yanqing, Blanche, and Odney and Pulin spent together.
"Blanche." Orles remembered something about this name.
"When I mentioned it to the maids before, their expressions changed a lot. Did Blanche and I have a bad relationship before?" Orles tilted her head.
"Well, actually you had a good relationship in the past." Speaking of bad, maybe it was because she and Shui Yanqing liked to quarrel, but not Blanche.
"It's just that something happened later, and you had an unavoidable conflict because of the situation." Tilan thought of the war three years ago. Both sides took great risks to participate in the war, but the result was unexpected.
"Then, can I still be on good terms with Blanche in the future?" Orles asked Tilan.
"We can be reconciled." Tilan held her hand and told her so.
"That's good~" Hearing the girl say this, Orles became happy again. Maybe in her opinion, as long as they can be friends, they should be good people.
Tilan thought a lot about this, such as the future relationship between the Central Star Region and the Western Star Region, and the various situations that Orles will face in the future.
It seems that in the next few years, Orles will have to slowly teach her some political things. Not to say that she will be very powerful, but at least she must learn to protect herself.
...
Time passed, and in the years that Tilan was away, a lot of changes took place in the Federation.
First of all, because the authority of the Central Star Region was no longer there, the various regional star regions began to make many decisions independently. Whether it was for the sake of development or for the sake of interests, the policies and guidelines of each star region were different from the past.
In addition, because the taxes paid were greatly reduced, many local star regions had more sufficient finances. Some of this money was used to develop the local economy, some was used to improve the environment, and some was used to provide welfare to win votes. Therefore, many star regions became more dynamic, and various large and small projects began to be launched.
However, some of the already poor star regions, due to the lack of central government funding support, began to become more difficult and had to seek help from the surrounding star regions. Their economy depended on the support of the surrounding developed star regions. In this process, the poor star regions had to give up a lot of autonomy, while those developed star regions took advantage of this to gather the surrounding backward star regions and let them follow their pace.
Over the years, groups of different sizes began to take shape in various places. If there were singing girls in a certain star region, they could often integrate the nearby star regions very quickly and easily to form a group with a common front. Therefore, the representatives of the groups in various local star regions are often familiar singing girls.
In the northern star region, the orc faction headed by Eluklu formed a loose alliance. They were numerous and had great influence in various star regions in the north. However, because there were many subdivided factions within the orcs, the power was mixed, and the degree of unity was not as good as some small groups.
Apart from 'Light Purple Foam' Elklu, the other divas born in the Northern Star Region include 'Moonstone' Eutimene, 'Pomegranate Shattered Dream' Arnantha, and 'Long Wind Horn' Queqin. However, for various reasons, the influence of these three in the Northern Star Region is much less than that of Elklu.
First is 'Moonstone' Eutimene. This veteran diva is now 93 years old. Although she can live for a long time as a transcendent, her appeal and strength have declined a lot compared to her youth.
Secondly, 'Pomegranate Shattered Dream' Arnantha, although she was born in the Northern Star Region, she actually grew up and lived in a remote military region for many years. She has been out of touch with the Northern Star Region for a long time. Her main supporters are also in the military, not in the Northern Star Region.
Finally, there is "Long Wind Horn" Kuiqin. Her situation is quite special. First of all, she was born in a relatively primitive tribe, which is on the edge of the federal jurisdiction. She was used to herding life since she was a child. Influenced by local traditional concepts, she was unwilling to move to a big city. Even after accepting the title of singer, she did not come to the central star field to go to school. She stayed there all the time and rarely released songs or appeared in the public eye. Therefore, her popularity was limited to the local star field.
The Western Star Region is still led by "Ten-pointed Sun" Blanche, and "Red Carnation" Chi Wanxin is also assisting. However, because the latter joined the team too late, she was not recognized by all forces in the Western Star Region and only acted as a deputy.
The Eastern Star Region is the richest and most numerous star region in the Federation, apart from the Central Star Region. The Eastern Star Region has the most singers among the major star regions. The most influential one is Luo Fenghua, the Red Ray, who has been recognized by many Pan-Eastern forces. The second most influential one is Otiberius, the Purple Flower, and Fui, the Mercury Bell. These two Moon-level singers are older than Luo Fenghua, but the former was promoted to the Moon-level too late, and the latter is also older, so her activity and influence are not as good as Luo Fenghua. The
next row is the group of Star-level singers in the Eastern Star Region, including Shela Lanco, the Rhythm of the Star Ring, Jian Xiner, the Flower of Confinement, Odney, the White Swan, Gwenna, the Pulp Boat, and other twelve singers.
In the southern star region, the most famous one is Tilan, whose current title is "Angel of the Shining Moon" or "Angel of the Gray Moon". Some people also call her "Black Angel" Heshia, which is quite confusing. The next one is "Falling Cloud Veil" Masha, who is at the Moon level, followed by "Flame Sugar" Pulinkoko, "Elegy of Thorns" Inor, "Rin Flower Bird" Katerin, "Stone Blue Flower" Greyer, "Poison Dream Scorpion" Yahmose, and "Nine-Colored Nautilus" Muyawati.
In the central star region, after the disappearance of Orles, the one who is now the leader is "White Rose Harp" Ewen Qilin. Her talent is actually better than Orles, but she has always had psychological barriers, which prevented her from breaking through to the Sun level. As a singer of half-elf descent and born into a famous family, she is actually recognized by all forces in the central star region. If it weren't for the birth and appearance of Orles, she would most likely be the official representative singer of the Federation in the next hundred years.
Next, the older generation of singers include Idria, the Ultramarine Dye Painting, and Geyel, both of whom were famous figures in the previous generation.
In the Central Star Region, the new generation of singers are represented by Shui Yanqing, the Blue Bubble, Meilulu, He Xiao, Sarah, Kosnad, and Xiang Keer, the Green Jasmine.
There are currently 52 active singers, and about 19 of them have retired or given up their status as singers, including Yulan Duojia, Mei, the Dot Recorder, and Grid, who gave up her status as a singer. In terms of the number of singers
, the number of singers in the Central Star Region is about twice that of the East or South. This is because the Central Star Region is the core region of the Federation, with many star regions and a population several times that of other star regions, and the Central Star Region is the most prosperous and core area in the Central Star Region, gathering many residents.
The northern star region is remote and has many desolate planets far away from the civilized society of the Federation. Its population is also smaller, with only four singers. The population of the western star region is much larger than that of the northern star region, but it is still far from the more affluent eastern and southern regions. As for the central star region, the gap is even more obvious.
The situation in the Federation is very different from that 400 years ago. At that time, the economy of the Western Star Region was connected to that of the Central Star Region, and it was the second most developed region after the Central Star Region. It also had a large population and a large number of singing girls. However, with the advent and end of the civil war, the political and economic status of the Western Star Region in the Federation plummeted, and the number of singing girls born subsequently continued to decrease. A large number of people migrated out, and finally formed the current situation.
In the three years since Heshia left, all forces have gradually become active, far from the situation in the past when the Central Star Region dominated alone. This has also led to the current complex and changeable situation, with various forces squeezing or uniting with each other, and forming different alliances.
"It's really a headache." The girl closed the record board after flipping through the information.
I thought it would be much easier after returning to the Federation, but it seems that there are still many things to be busy with.
The country is still in turmoil, on the verge of collapse. All forces have different ideas, and after losing the suppression of the central parliament, the forces in various places gradually colluded and united to form a piece of iron plate, far from the scattered state in the past. Now even the trial court faces much greater resistance when dealing with many problems, and it is not as smooth as in the past.
It can be predicted that if it continues like this, even if the Rose Federation exists on the surface, it has actually become a separate system and split into different regions.
