Chapter 1488 Lancaster's New Maxim: Rule the World with the Lower Body? (Part 3)

At this moment, Cromwell transformed into a white stork with a wingspan of dozens of meters, half-human, half-bird.

Whoosh—!

In the next instant, a gust of wind suddenly swept through the cross-shaped Financial Street, dispersing the clouds overhead and revealing the majestic pyramids floating in the sky.

A breathtakingly beautiful, poised and dignified figure in a red dress wielded a golden holy sword, stepping down from the void.

Behind her, a grand golden light far surpassing the Netherland Kingdom by tenfold, linked together to form the most lavish gown in the world at the feet of the girl.

In an instant, it drew the attention of everyone on Financial Street.

“Is that the owner of Financial Street, Lady Friday?”

“No, I saw this face at the International Port before. It’s the Queen of the North Sea Empire, the Finance Queen, Mithril Dragon, Flower of the North, Catherine Lancaster!”

“Lady Friday is actually the Finance Queen? How is that possible? When Financial Street first appeared, she was a low-sequence Second Order Mithril Knight.”

Buzz…

Financial Street is frequented by numerous Transcendents from morning to night, and today, they finally saw who the mysterious Lady Friday truly was, stirring the whole Financial Street.

Yet the facts were indisputable.

Previously, the reputation of the Finance Queen was also very prominent, but she was always regarded as a dependent of Pirate Emperor Saint Byron.

Today, her image transformed drastically.

Who wouldn’t know, Financial Street, almost connecting every Transcendent, is a colossal Financial Empire, comparable to no country in the real world?

Its influence even extends beyond independent countries, impacting every corner of the Silver Continent where Transcendents are present.

The two titles, Finance Queen and Lady Friday, merged into one, and Catherine instantly leaped to become one of the most influential figures in the entire Silver Continent and even the whole world.

It also made countless neutral forces caught between the Orthodox Alliance and Protestant Alliance suddenly clear the situation.

Initially, Byron broke through the limitation of one country in Hightins, capturing the Five Bay States, relying on the Queen War Queen Violet’s strong claims over Iron Anchor Bay and the Three Nations of the Eternal Night Peninsula;

Then they established the Sacred Golden Empire in the Bantaan Archipelago, building diplomatic relations with various countries, tightly controlling the throat of the Southern Continent, utilizing the Sacred Golden Empire’s Finance Queen Catherine, thriving the operation of various precious resources and financial business;

A few days ago, the Desert Empire of the Eastern Continent announced the change of dynasty, and people finally realized in shock that even the World’s Foremost Beauty had become the Royal Lover of His Majesty Saint Byron, having born him two children.

Two queens and one lover, three women managing one Great Empire each, among the top powers in the three continents.

Along with the online Financial Empire, covered on both sides, if not for the Triple Crown on the Pope’s head, who’s the boss of the Material World might still be unsure.

Countless people are driven mad with jealousy.

“North Sea Empire’s cards are revealed one after another, who knows how many remain unrevealed. Everyone says the Habsburg Royal Family of the Holy Silver Empire ruled the world with their lower bodies, using marriage instead of bloodshed. Actually, those who truly rule the world with their lower bodies should be your Lancaster Royal Family, right?”

Even if someone told them now, that on the unconquered territory of the West Coast, there exists a fourth woman with the surname Lancaster, they absolutely wouldn’t have any doubt.

Even though neither the Fire Worship Empire nor Star Moon Empire have any woman in power.

Catherine did not care what those below were thinking but pointed her sword at Cromwell, who was integrated with the national treasury, and rang out her long-prepared opening statement:

“I have a sword, with gold as the sword edge, silver as the blade, credit as the spine, finance as the hilt, commerce as the scabbard, and products as the weight ball. Ruled by market principles, executed with power, law, and force, ‘investment’ as slashing, ‘consumption’ as thrust, ‘export’ as cutting. This sword pierces straight ahead unstoppable, raised high with nothing above, pressing down invincible. Please, Lord Cromwell, test the sword! North Sea Empire’s treasury against Netherland Kingdom’s treasury, let us have a fair duel.”

At this moment, “Supreme Art can kill a nation!” is no longer a youthful ambition and big talk.

Catherine condensed her financial prowess into a tangible holy sword, capable of cutting people and actualizing engagement with the treasury of other countries, truly slaying other countries’ financial systems and commerce.

Especially against those economies already bleeding heavily, utterly devastated.

Upon saying this, the financial transformation of the North Sea Empire enveloped her body in endless golden light.

Awo—!

Accompanied by a high-pitched dragon’s roar, a gold giant dragon, hundreds of meters long, wielded a hundred-meter long sword, striking down towards Cromwell transformed into a white stork.

“You call this a fair duel? Shameless!”

[Protector of the Realm] nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood upon hearing Catherine’s shameless words learned from some rogue.

The opposing golden dragon was radiant while his white stork was battered and bleeding profusely.

This signifies that after suffering from the tulip bubble, the Kingdom is still hemorrhaging.

The East Coast financial center, even when intact, might not manage to defeat the North Sea Empire, let alone now?

What irritates him the most is the fresh blood flowing from him, continuously gathering into the opposing national treasury draped behind.
