"Okay, it just so happens that I also have some things I want to ask Miss Broniance. Speaking of which, has Miss her been under the Black Tower for the past few days?"
Jenkins asked.
"Yes, the teacher must concentrate on preparing for the divination of the tower. She believes that understanding the internal structure of each layer is of great significance in helping you win the final victory against the Difference Engine."
"I may not be able to defeat the believers of lies~"
He refuted a sentence, and wanted to warn them that the tower was very dangerous, and they had to make complete preparations before divination. But it happened that Miss Bevanna came back at this time, and this topic was temporarily suspended.
In the afternoon, talk to Miss Bevanna about Wang Hun in the church, and go to the reception in the evening, where Jenkins' followers will celebrate their victory. Those nobles who want to get to know the new king should also rely on this opportunity to at least let Jenkins know who they are.
Fortunately, Jessica is here. Although she is not feeling well, because she still has two bodies, Jessica can also help Jenkins deal with many things. If it is only on his own, Jenkins may really have to consider the matter of quickly abdicating after getting the [Uncrowned King].
The banquet didn't end until ten o'clock in the evening. This time Jenkins was the host of the banquet. He couldn't leave first, he had to stay at the end, and waited for all the guests to leave, as well as those who wanted to talk to him after the banquet was over. , he can leave.
Therefore, when Jenkins came to the Church of the Sages in a black robe, it was already close to midnight. He took his white cat up the steps of the main entrance. Tonight there were guards at the entrance of the church. After seeing him from a distance, one of them ran into the interior of the church. When Jenkins arrived at the entrance, Miss Bevanna had already Welcome out.
The Church of the Sages predicted that followers of lies would come to visit in the near future, and had already prepared for the recurring night conversation. When he came last time, he asked to prepare for the final negotiations as soon as possible, and stated that he might come to the Church of the Sage next time to inform the news.
So after other churches got the news from the Church of the Sages, they also arranged for representatives to wait in the Church of the Sages, so this time more people talked to Jenkins.
"Why don't you go to Evergreen Forest?"
The people from the Church of Mechanics raised this question again.
"Because it's so far away, don't you think we don't live in the city?"
Jenkins also gave a different answer than last time.
He first asked about the arrangements for the final negotiations. The church did not have any questions. The joint meeting of the twelve churches has basically formulated policies and guidelines for the next period of time. Unlike the Three Kingdoms, which have completely different interests and demands, the conflicts of the Church can be reconciled.
As for the Three Kingdoms, Queen Isabella agreed to participate in the final negotiations, and the church was gradually letting her understand what was going to happen in the material world. Salhi II is still in communication. Although the old king is very open-minded, he cannot give an immediate reply to such an important decision.
There are still some problems with Cheslan. The believers of lies require the participation of national representatives in the negotiations. The second prince who is now residing in Nolan, although he has the will of the proud Tarkov and is the legal heir, he really has nothing to do. rights, and is still waiting for the other two countries to help restore the country.
The church understands that believers of lies mean to integrate all the power of mankind, so they also hope that the one who will finally sit at the negotiating table will be the real king with real power.
In order to achieve this goal, the church has explained the situation with Salhi II and Queen Isabella, and intends to take advantage of the current fire in the south and the spread of the curse of mechanized corpses, so that the northern kingdom and Fidetictli can immediately Send out troops and directly attack Turin, the capital of Cheslan.
With the cooperation of the church and the chaos in Cheslan, it may take a long time to quell the rebellion, but it may take a few days for the second prince of the Aresio family to take over the administrative power of Cheslan.
Especially now the space-specific area near Nolan, able to connect directly to Turin in Chezlan.
The final negotiation in preparation has not yet selected a location, but this time the representatives of the Twelve Churches gave a precise estimated time point, which is Friday of this week.
It's Monday night, and the clock is a few minutes away from the stroke of midnight, which shows that the church is confident that the matter of Cheslan's representative will be resolved as soon as possible. Now that the High Tower Agreement has expired, if the Twelve Churches really decide to unite to do something, the kingdom of mortals will not be able to stop them.
At the same time, the church also hinted that it wanted to take over this negotiation and wipe out all the cultists entrenched in Nolan. But this matter has nothing to do with the believers of lies. Jenkins can know the details by asking the church with his own identity, so he didn't ask much.
The lie believers claim that the purpose of coming here tonight is to obtain news related to the negotiation. But the church intends to take advantage of this opportunity to trade the one representing the dragon among the four king souls.
Therefore, when Jenkins hugged the cat and claimed to leave, and came back two days later to inquire about the progress, Miss Bevanna, who was the owner of the church, stopped him:
"Actually, there is one more thing that needs to be discussed with you."
"Anything else? Something to do with Jenkins Williams?"
Seeing him, she guessed it immediately, and Miss Bevanna was also happy that she didn't need to explain further:
"Yes, related to Jenkins. Now four…"
"There is no need to explain. Since he has the ability to expose Miss Fabri's deception, we will not hold him for it. We appreciate such a smart person. If there is a chance, I would also like to have a talk with this young and promising king. Talk. Rest assured, this will not affect the cooperation between us, nor will we take revenge on the new king who came to power. Believers of lies are not people who hold grudges."
He waved his hand and said, then got up again:
"I didn't have anything to do and I left. It's so late and my cat is sleepy."
Saying that, White Cat Vanilla yawned very cooperatively.
"No, it's not Miss Fabry's business. It's Wang Hun's business."
"Wang Soul?"
He supported the table with one hand, but did not sit down again:
"Let me take a guess."
He smiled and looked at the people at the table, and they all tried their best to avoid staring at him under the lamp:
"You found other king souls? Wait, oh, I probably understand, that's why."
"What do you understand?"
asked Miss Bevanna.
"This is not important, but I think, you want the soul of the dragon?"
The scene was quiet for a while. Other churches had little to do with this matter, so they didn't speak. Miss Bevanna nodded despite the pressure. She knew that if she did this, she would definitely be ridiculed by believers in lies or blackmailed, but this was a last resort. The Holy See has sent an order to get the Dragon Soul here at all costs.
About Alexia
1,
So far, the future without the arrival of outsiders is almost clear.
Based on the spirit of no spoilers, a brief summary:
The outsiders did not come, so like all the past eras, nine saviors came into being to compete for the identity of the savior, including Hathaway, Jessica, Mr. Hood, and many outsiders. and familiar people. However, the winner of the competition chose Jenkins, the original owner who also used mechanical power, who bore the guilt.
Of course, although he won the battle for the status of the savior, he still failed to save the world, just like those losers in the past (such as the savior buried by Jenkins in the chapter "Madmen and Fools"). Just like the prophecy of the parchment in the first volume of this article, the original owner became a beast of disaster, wreaking havoc at the end of the era. Then Alexia, the only mortal in this era who relied on herself to reach the godhood, will defeat the beast of disaster and prevent the doomsday in a true sense.
Yes, Alexia is the one who saved the world in the original world.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, atheism (do not believe in any other gods), thirst for knowledge (share the same pursuit with the sage), outstanding talent (possible to become a god by itself), and research on the difference engine since many years ago (Have the deepest understanding of the beast of disaster), isn't this the standard configuration for the savior to become a god in this century
I'm surprised that everyone didn't see it. The author thought it was obvious.
2,
It was mentioned earlier that Hathaway might have been the one who saved the world originally, because she is as much loved by many people as Jenkins is now. But there is a difference between Hathaway and Jenkins and Alexia. She is always human and has never shown the same "divinity" as Jenkins and Alexia.
To put it simply, she is not as transcendent as outsiders and mathematicians. Jenkins is detached because he doesn't belong here, so he doesn't care, and Alexia is because of her own reasons, making her only pursue the way of mathematics.
The gods of this world are not the personal gods of the traditional western gods, nor the gods who have too many ties to mortals, covet the pleasure of mortals, and seem to be just powerful mortals.
So, Hathaway and Alexia are different from Jenkins.
3.
Did the arrival of outsiders make Alexia lose a lot? No, in a world without outsiders, she finally became a god by saving the world, took over the position of the sage, and became the new god of knowledge. The price of saving the world, the loneliness of being alone all the time, and the various hardships endured for the purpose are the process.
In the world where outsiders come, she is no longer alone. With a lover she is quite satisfied with, she doesn't have to pay a price to save the world, and she doesn't have to experience all kinds of difficulties and dangers. "The road of time is wider. Even, at the end of the story, she (no spoilers).
Therefore, the arrival of Jenkins is a good thing for everyone, including the original owner Jenkins, Alexia, and everyone.
