However, she soon realized that her voice was too loud, so she quickly covered her mouth and lowered her voice, "What on earth is going on? Who are Dione's parents?" "I told you, you might be scared." "Could it be... the King of Thrace?" "No, I suspected this before, but it wasn't the King of Thrace." Hilde looked around, then leaned close to Sophia's ear and whispered, "Underground, there is an ancient temple dedicated to Apollo, and Dione's mother is a priestess dedicated to Apollo. That's not all, but Dione's father is actually Apollo." "..." Sophia raised her head in surprise. "A-Are you kidding?" "I am kidding." "A-Apollo!?" This is the current situation.
Sophia was confused. When she first heard this, she thought Hilde was joking, but now it seems that Hilde was not talking nonsense, but telling the truth. At this time, Hilde continued: "Alas... I don't really believe it, but after seeing the situation inside, I have to believe it. Anyway, no matter what, just think that Dione is Apollo's child, but don't be too surprised, Apollo doesn't like Dione, so he took Dione's power away a long time ago." "Does Dione know?" "How could I know?" Hilde shook her head. At this time, Sophia continued to ask: "So, are you going to tell Dione about this?" "Don't worry, let's talk about it later." "OK……" This news really surprised Sophia. She didn't expect that Dione, who lived with her, was actually a descendant of God, which was something that only existed in legends. Sophia was completely confused. In front of her, Hilde was the oracle of Athena and had a close relationship with Athena, while the innocent Dione was the daughter of Apollo. In the end, she was the lowest in this circle, a slave from Carthage. Thinking of this, Sophia felt deeply helpless. "Then if you say so..." "Ok?" "In that case, Dione is really amazing!" "Ah... maybe." Hilde didn't know what to say. Dione no longer has any divine power and is actually just an ordinary person. And even if there is any relationship with Apollo in the future, it can only be a bad relationship, not a good one. From the matter of the Thracian King, Hilde can basically be sure that Apollo will never stand on the same front with her. He can only be her future enemy, and will never become her friend... Although Hilde does not even trust Artemis, the only people Hilde can trust in this world are her mother and Sophia. "It seems we can no longer underestimate Dione."
"Ah, why do you look down on her?" Hilde shrugged helplessly. "Just treat it as normal." "But……" "I know how you feel, but we all have to be clear that Dione is a good child and an inseparable family member of ours. Not to mention that she is Apollo's child, she is Hades' child and has nothing to do with me. Dione is Dione. What's more, her biological father is not a good person at all." Hilde reached out and held Sophia's hand. "Let's go, let's not waste time here, let's go back first." "Okay, okay!" After blocking this piece. Hilde also figured out the situation here. However, the underground ruins may be discovered sooner or later, and since it is a temple dedicated to Apollo, it is entirely possible to attract Apollo back. After all, it is possible that Apollo has returned to heaven, and even if the Thracian king is dead at this time, Apollo may not know... So, this makes Hilde worried, what if Apollo comes back to have some fun, and comes back to find that not only the Thracian king is dead, but also the women he hid in the temple who are read as priests or written as sex slaves have been killed by Hilde. I guess he would be very angry. Of course, this is just looking at this matter from a mortal's perspective. What the specific results will be, we will have to wait and see. The third adjustment, the fifth section, the next round of capital relocation plan However, here is the situation found. This made Hilde more determined to relocate and immigrate. Adlicia is indeed not suitable to be the capital of Upper Thrace Province, and the city must be abandoned. The underground temple always gave Hilde an uncomfortable feeling, so in order to avoid some unexpected situations, the relocation of the capital must be put on the agenda. Hilde thought so, and then returned to the room they had lived in before with Sophia. "His Majesty!" At this time, Dione saw Hilde coming back. He ran over and hugged Hilde's slender waist. "You are finally back!" "I'm sorry, I was out for a long time." Hilde gently touched Dione's head. However, Hilde's mood is a bit complicated now. This little girl in front of me...is actually the daughter of Apollo. Thinking of this, Hilde was a little emotional. She never thought that she had been using Apollo's daughter as food for such a long time. Hilde didn't know what to say... However, Hilde thought that it would be better not to tell Dione about this matter. It would not be too late to tell Dione about this matter after she grows up. Hilde thought so, and then said to Dione: "Dione, did you not get enough rest at night?" "Oh, yes." Dione nodded straightforwardly. Hilde smiled and said:
"I'm sorry to bother you." "It's okay, as long as you're okay." Dione was a very innocent child, without any bad intentions... Therefore, every time he saw Dione like this, Hilde's conscience, which was almost gone, would still ache a little. Hilde was stunned for a moment, then picked up Dione, and said to Sophia, "It turns out that the city is not suitable for us to live in. Let's go out and sleep in the barracks. You and Dione should have a good rest first. I have some things to deal with later." "Sissi, let me accompany you." Sophia walked up to Hilde and gently took her hand. "I'm afraid something might happen to you." "What could possibly happen to me? Huh?" Hilde couldn't help laughing. "You two being safe is the best thing for me. You two had so much blood sucked last night, you two must get a good rest, otherwise, I will be angry." Hilde couldn't help pinching Diony's nose when she said this, "You also remember to get a good sleep when you get outside, and you have to eat whether I am here or not, got it?" "understood!" Dione reached out her hand and pounded her chest. "Guaranteed to complete the mission!" "Okay, I'll check when I get back." Hilde raised her head and looked at Sophia: "Take good care of her, and you should have a good rest too." "Okay, Sissi." Sophia had no choice but to agree. Afterwards, Hilde sent Sophia and Dione out of Adlicia and arranged a separate tent in the military camp outside the city for the two to rest and sleep. Then, Hilde summoned Sitalses and Damianos, the governor of Upper Thrace, and the two followed Hilde to a high ground outside Adlicia. Here, they could have a panoramic view of Adlicia in the valley. “What a tiny city.” Hilde said with some emotion. "A city like this cannot guarantee the normal operation of the Upper Thrace province." "Your Majesty, do you mean to move the capital?" Damianos asked tentatively, "Does that mean that we should abandon the city of Adlicia and find a new place as our capital?" "Well, what do you think?" "It all depends on His Majesty's orders." Damianos quickly lowered his head. "This is what I think. On the one hand, as you can see, Adlicia is a place with inconvenient transportation and fierce and undisciplined people. It takes a lot of manpower and material resources to stabilize the Adlicia people's rebellious emotions. Once there is a change in the province of Upper Thrace, the Adlicia people are likely to become a threatening existence. We must pay attention to this. To the north of the province of Upper Thrace is a vast hilly area that has not been developed yet. There is abundant water and grass there. Whether it is grazing or farming, it is a very reasonable place. Don't you think that putting the capital in the northern hills is a better choice?" "Yes, Your Majesty." Damianos bowed his head and said: "That's what I thought."
"Ah, very good." Damianos had this idea, but because Sitalces was an Adelisian, Damianos took Sitalces' feelings into consideration and trusted Sitalces to help him solve the Adelisian problem, so he never mentioned this matter. But now that Hilde has taken the initiative to bring up this matter, Damianos feels that there is no need for him to remain silent. This matter must be resolved. The terrain of the Upper Thrace province is more troublesome. The south is a great plains area with relatively flat terrain. In the middle is a huge mountain range, and Adlicia is located on top of it. As for the north, it is a typical hilly area. Although the terrain is not particularly flat, the environment is still quite good. At the same time, because the northern region borders the Getes and the Kingdom of Scythia, it is also very important from a political and military perspective. Therefore, Hilde does not want to give up that area. She must strive to build enough population and cities in that area to consolidate her oppression of the Kingdom of Scythia... Now, move the capital to the north. Maybe it is the best choice. "Sitarces." "exist." Sitalses, who had been silent just now, came behind Hilde at this time. "Your Majesty, please speak." "Do you have any suggestions?" "Your Majesty, no." Sitalses knelt on one knee and said sincerely, "I know very well that there is no hope for the people of Adlisia. Now, the best option is to let them leave here and turn Adlisia into ruins. Your Majesty, please don't worry about me. For me, a homeland that regards me as a traitor has no meaning anymore." Sitalces's heartfelt words. Even Damianos, who was standing nearby, was moved. This awareness is truly extraordinary. Hilde nodded and said to Sitalses, "I understand what you mean." The beginning of the migration plan Now it seems that Adlicia's abandonment is a foregone conclusion. Since Sitalses had no objection, Hilde decided to start doing this now. So, on the same day, Hilde discussed the specific process of moving the city with Sitalces and Damianos. First, Hilde selected a site and decided to find a suitable place to live in the northern hilly area of Upper Thrace. Finally, a relatively flat plain in the hilly area was chosen. There was a small river here, which was enough for a city of tens of thousands of people to drink water for daily life. At the same time, the flat terrain was conducive to the construction of the city. The surrounding riverside land and the forested mountains could easily make charcoal, and then make bricks. But the Adelisians cannot gather together. So the second point is to break up the Adelisians. As long as they are separated, they will not be able to continue causing trouble. Therefore, in Hilde's plan, the Adlicians, who currently have a population of more than 10,000, will be divided into more than a dozen parts and migrated to different regions, such as the nearby Danube Province or the Black Sea Province. The Adlicians who remain in the Upper Thrace Province will be reduced to only 2,500 people, and these 2,500 people, almost all of them are women, who will go to the new city site with the garrison troops stationed in the Upper Thrace Province and start building a new city. Building a new city takes a long time. However, this time, Hilde brought an entire army with him.
One legion plus the troops brought by Hilde, totaling more than 10,000 people. It's not like Hilde has never made soldiers do rough work before. Therefore, after the specific plan was implemented, Hilde began to order the troops to take action. The first thing to do is to classify the residents of Adlisia. Most of the people in Adlisia are old, young or female, and the elderly are no longer meaningful for pioneering. They can only farm on one acre of land to support themselves, so they will be distributed to other provinces as a cheap supplement to the labor force. Young women and children are very important. Women who have lost their elders have almost lost all their resistance.
