"Companions of the hero?" Horkels III was obviously quite surprised by this title.
"Your Majesty, these four young people in front of you once met and traveled with our founding heroes for a period of time," Archpriest Meron explained. Then he turned to face Enleco and the others and asked, "I didn't say it wrong."
Apart from nodding their heads, what further response could Enleco and the others have to this question
When people around him heard the news, they were all shocked. But then I thought that for the three-headed demon wolf, which can live up to several thousand years, five hundred years is just a short period of its long life. And for Warcraft, human reputation and status are completely meaningless, so it is understandable that Enleco and the others are lucky enough to be able to travel with this hero of all mankind five hundred years ago.
From the envious and longing gazes cast in the eyes of others, Enleco deeply felt how high the status of the somewhat rogue old wolf was in everyone's minds.
"Oh, Your Majesty, the Victory Day celebration will be held in a few days. We might as well take this opportunity to ask these young people to give us a good performance of how they met the founding hero Vantas. My Majesty, you see What about my proposal?" The great wizard Kobe Leo suddenly put forward such an opinion.
"Well, okay, quite good. I really want to see this wonderful show as soon as possible. Distinguished guests, can you satisfy my small wish?" Horkels III asked.
Before Enleco and the others could react, Princess Frannie had already agreed. She said: "It is our greatest honor to be able to serve His Majesty, and we will do our best to achieve your wishes."
"Thank you." Horkels III bowed to express his gratitude, then turned around and ordered the attendants behind him: "You must meet the requirements of these gentlemen as much as possible and provide them with the greatest help."
After giving all these instructions, Horkels III, accompanied by the chief priest of Meron, continued to explain the legends and stories on the reliefs on both sides one by one.
Although the narration of Horkels III is still so excellent, and the stories are indeed more exciting than the last, it is obvious that everyone's interest has turned to the three young people, if not out of politeness, just I'm afraid no one will want to continue listening. Anyway, at least Enleco himself didn't hear what Horkels III was saying at all.
After turning around the entire hall, everyone walked out of the door at the back. A square appeared in front of them. The square was circular, with twelve tall marble pillars standing evenly around it. Each pillar is thirty meters high and up to two meters in diameter. In the center of the square, there are four-meter-high bronze statues facing each of the four directions. Among them, the one facing the east has three majestic giant wolf heads. It looks like the old wolf they met in the dreamy magic forest. Touch the same. It seems that when this statue was made, the old wolf was carefully carved stroke by stroke. Just take a look at this statue and you can be sure of this. Even some of the details on the old wolf's body are exquisitely carved. However, after looking at it for a long time, Enleco felt that this statue was not completely acquainted with the real old wolf. If there was anything about this statue that was most different from the real old wolf, it would be the solemn and solemn expression of the old wolf on this statue. In Enleco's memory, the old wolf has never been so serious. Sometimes Enleco often thinks that if the old wolf also becomes a human, this guy will definitely become exactly the same as Victor, Chris, and Joe. This may be the most realistic side of this alien hero.
However, Enleco only dared to think about these words in private, and did not even dare to say them out, because he knew very well that if others knew that this was how he viewed heroes, others would definitely do everything possible to do so. Reversing Enleco's wrong idea. (Of course the method will definitely be a little violent) What's more, Enleco knew that even among the four companions who were familiar with the old wolf's temperament, there must have been a steel defender who resolutely maintained the sacred image of the old wolf. This Of course, there is no doubt that the person is Kate, who is an absolute hero worshiper. If Kate does not know the true identity of the old wolf, he will definitely agree with his views on the old wolf. But now, once he knows that Enleco is disrespectful to the old wolf, Thoughts, he must be the first one to jump out and brainwash Enleco.
While looking at the sculpture of the old wolf, Enleco followed the crowd across the square. At the other end of the square is a row of single-story buildings arranged in a crescent shape.
Everyone walked into the building through a semi-garden gate. Enleco had always been very curious about these strange-functioning buildings in the Kaoqi Kingdom. For example, a building with a completely arc-shaped structure like this, in The Kingdom of Sophie is completely invisible. Since entering the Kingdom of Kaoqi, Enleco has been amazed at the Kaoqi people's fine mastery of arc craftsmanship. The Kaoqi people can often build various structures using only simple arcs. Buildings with different purposes, such as arc-shaped arch bridges can be seen everywhere in the Kingdom of Kaoqi. This kind of exquisitely made bridge can stably fly across both sides of the river without placing additional piers. This kind of craftsmanship amazed Enleco in terms of practicality and beauty.
And this wonderful building that appears in front of Enleco is obviously also an exquisite creation of the exquisite arc craftsmanship of the Kaoqi Kingdom. Snow-white marble arc-shaped walls stretch out from the left and right sides, and the entire roof is also inlaid with arc-shaped marble slabs. The shadows of beams and columns are completely invisible, and the rafters are carefully arranged under the roof. Obviously they are just for decoration. It can be seen at a glance that they cannot bear any power at all. A silver mirror with a diameter of one foot hangs every two meters against the arc-shaped wall. The whole room is quite bright through the sunlight reflected by countless silver mirrors. Enleco is very interested in this design. In his home country, Sophien Kingdom, special magic and special instruments must be used to keep the room bright. It's not something that ordinary people can use. Enleco had only seen such a device once in the palace hall of Sophie Kingdom.
However, Enleco was soon attracted by another thing. He saw a long arc-shaped table placed in the room. There were various tableware on the table, and two rows of young maids came out from both ends of the arc, each of them holding a beautiful dinner plate in their hands. From the dinner plate, Enleco could even smell the alluring aroma.
Although Enleco hated almost all diplomatic etiquette and palace lifestyle, there was only one ceremony that he would never object to, and that was the banquet. Although the palace banquet had countless cumbersome rules that people were not used to, but, When he thought of those delicious dishes, Enleco felt that any hardship was worth enduring. From this point of view, Enleco was somewhat influenced by Victor.
However, Enleco was still very concerned about the princess's ban on eating. After all, he had once again lost the face of his arrogant princess. He didn't know what punishment was waiting for him when he returned. If I let the princess find some faults again at the dinner table, I'm afraid that my life will be very hard in the future. You may even have to walk away without being able to eat.
After thinking about it, Enleco quietly approached the princess, leaned behind the princess and asked softly: "Your Highness, what should we do next?"
The princess covered her face with a fan and said softly: "Be careful yourself and don't make a fool of me again, or else I'll look good on you when I go back."
Enleco was really elated when he heard the princess's ban. You can enjoy delicious food later. As long as he pays attention to his appearance, he can indulge his appetite and eat.
But soon he couldn't be happy anymore. The voices of two people talking slowly floated over from both ends of the arc. Listen carefully, it was the two exchanges between himself and the princess just now. The tone and voice were really the same. The same thing happened. Seeing the princes, nobles and ministers of the Kingdom of Kaoqi laughing and laughing, even Horcols III could not keep a serious expression, and all the members of the delegation from the Kingdom of Sophie were dumbfounded.
At this time, the only Chief Priest Meilong who could remain serious explained: "This place is called the real hall. It is the crystallization of ancient architecture. There is a rather strange feature in this hall. If you speak in a normal tone, it will not What abnormal phenomenon will happen? However, once someone whispers in a very low voice, the special structure of the hall will amplify the sound and then spread it back like an echo. Therefore, this hall has always been used as a banquet for guests from all over the world. A place to show sincerity and no deception.”
After hearing this, listen to the conversations that filled the hall over and over again like echoes in the valley, and look at the ministers who filled the hall laughing heartily, and the members of the national mission behind them who were struggling to hold back a smile. At this time, the princess really hated this damn Enleco. In the princess's heart, Enleco has been sentenced to various forms of capital punishment countless times.
In fact, at the first sight of Her Royal Highness the Princess's swollen cheeks and her hands that were slightly white from holding them tightly, Enleco knew that his situation was quite bad now, and the fierce look from the Princess made Enleco Lecco seemed to be back at another dining table for a moment. The dining table that he remembered so vividly was the dining table they had been using in Chris's laboratory. The fierce look the princess gave her just now was so similar to the way Magician Chris looked at her when she knew she was Victor's disciple. After that, Chris's brutal persecution of him was a painful experience that he would never forget. Now, when he thinks of it, Enleco still shudders in his heart. For a moment, Enleko even considered whether to apply for political asylum from Horkels III. Perhaps, being a fugitive is far better than going back to face the angry princess.
Now that he has made enough fools of himself, Enleco is not too worried. Enleco, who has put down the burden in his heart, is very happy with this meal. Anyway, he has to face a princess who will definitely go crazy when she goes back, so it is better to have fun in time. Enleco is most concerned about it now. Enleco talked and laughed at the dinner table, and his natural, generous and polite demeanor greatly changed the impression of Enleco on the ministers of the Kaoqi Kingdom. In front of them, Enleco now looks like a seasoned professional diplomat, instead of the shrunken little princess's follower and the hilarious court juggler at the beginning.
Enleco's skillful diplomatic style not only surprised the officials of the Kaoqi Kingdom, but also surprised the members of the Sophien Kingdom's mission, including the princess.
It turns out that in their eyes, Enleco is just a magician who knows strange magic, has great potential, and may even be able to hide his extraordinary strength. But other than that, Enleco is nothing, that is, he does not have good skills. Education cannot be called any other specialty. Unexpectedly, this ordinary Enleco actually had quite good diplomatic potential.
The princess on the side has already made up her mind. After returning, she must take care of this living treasure that can go off at any time, and give him some comprehensive training to see how much he can absorb. Maybe, this guy is really a piece of cake that no one pays attention to. Where's the baby? However, of course, the premise of all this is that Enleco must pay a sufficient price for this embarrassing behavior (which also caused the princess to be embarrassed) before he can consider it.
Seeing Enleco's performance, even Joe, who never spoke at the side, was surprised. He had no idea that Enleco had such a trick. Although he usually looks carefree, it does not mean that he does not care about national affairs. Joe likes to serve the country in another special form. For example, discovering talents is his greatest contribution. Many knights in the Kingdom of Sophie are It was Joe who dug it out from among the common people. Therefore, when the issue of Enleco's education was mentioned in the Kingdom of Sophie, the princess immediately thought of Joe. After all, Joe's expertise in this area was recognized by everyone. Now Joe is thinking about how to save Enleco's life first when he goes back. Joe has no objection at all to giving Enleco some punishment and making him suffer. It can be seen that she has serious violent tendencies like the current princess. However, Joe's principle has always been that life is precious, health is priceless, and freedom is the most basic. Therefore, he has always been opposed to Chris's completely violent approach, and he was very angry that Enleco was forced to become Chris's private property. Deeply sympathize with the property matter.
However, despite his deep sympathy, Joe was still just watching with the mood of watching a good show, just like those theater fans who cried to death for the tragic experiences of the characters on the stage. For Enleco, Joe is absolutely not interested in Kris begging for mercy or helping Enleco regain his freedom.
Just like now, while Joe was thinking about how to save Enleco's life, he was also thinking that he couldn't take advantage of this kid and let him get through easily, but he felt really bad about it. I have to think of some way to tease this kid. Let this kid suffer more.
At the dinner table, everyone was thinking about their own thoughts while tasting sumptuous delicacies. Enleco was now so impressed by the palace cooking skills of the Kaoqi Kingdom. Sure enough, the whole world turned Vedsk, the capital of the Kaoqi Kingdom, into a feast. It is not unreasonable to call it the capital of gourmet food. The Kingdom of Kaoqi does have unique accomplishments in gourmet food. There are a total of 108 dishes of various colors on the table. Not only are they all exquisite and delicious, but what surprised Enleco most is that, None of the main ingredients used in all the dishes are repeated, from the first dish of oyster bisque to the last dish of grilled butter dragon wings. Each dish is carefully selected and made using different cooking techniques. This banquet not only opened Enleco's horizons but also whetted his appetite. Among these dishes, Enleco is most interested in various varieties of dragon meat, including delicious sea dragon meat, tender and crispy flying dragon meat, moderately sweet and sour cloud dragon meat, and sweet but not greasy wind dragon meat. , even when he took a bite of the fried Spinosaurus meat, he deeply regretted it. If he had known that this animal was so delicious, there would be such a large group of Spinosaurus in Chris's laboratory. At that time, he would have wasted such delicious food. For food, if one or two animals had been secretly slaughtered at that time, Chris would never have discovered it.
After having a full meal, the host was so kind that he invited everyone to rest in the side hall. Enleco knew that according to diplomatic practices, this was an opportunity for the main representatives of the two countries to have informal contacts, so only Her Royal Highness Princess Franny followed Horkels. The third generation walked into the small living room on the left side of the hall, and the rest of the people roamed freely in the hall and square chatting.
Aimless Enleco, Kate and Jerry were invited by Archbishop Meron to follow him to the private laboratory located south of the temple.
As soon as he entered the laboratory, Enleco also felt like he was in a foreign land. The chief priest of Meron obviously noticed Enleco's reaction and explained: "The place you are now in is a place where humans and gods have existed since ancient times. A place for communication.”
When Enleco heard this, he immediately realized that this was the same place that connected two different spaces like Chrissy's laboratory, except that Chrissy's dreamy forest was connected to the devil world, and what was connected here was obviously the gods. The heaven where you are. Since I have been in the demon world for a period of time, I am very sensitive to the anomalies in this space. It would be impossible for others to detect such a slight difference in space, and this may be thanks to Magician Chris who once threw Enleco into the devil world.
The great chief priest of Kaoqi asked the three young people to sit down on the brocade group. To be honest, Enleco really liked this special custom of the Kaoqi Kingdom. Kaoqi people did not like to sit on the sofa or sit on the sofa. On the chair, during normal leisure time, Kaoqi people will sit in a brocade stuffed with thick cotton or goose down. This brocade is quite comfortable. Therefore, Enleco bought two such brocade groups as soon as he arrived in Caladan.
While the four of them were resting, they were talking about the topic of Old Wolf. As the chief priest of the Kingdom of Kaoqi, Meron did pay a lot of attention to everything about the Warcraft Vantusi, one of the founding heroes of the country.
Facing this great magician who is famous for his wisdom all over the world, the three trial students felt that they could only fully communicate with him. Enleco really didn't know how to explain his experience with Lao Lang.
After listening to their statements, the old magician leaned back slightly, buried his entire body in the brocade ball, and relaxed his muscles and bones as if he was asleep. After a long period of time, the old magician asked: "You should know the current situation, right?"
"Yes, we know your country is preparing for war." Kate said succinctly.
"Yes, since the death of my old friend Ross, the whole country is sliding into war."
"With your high moral character, you should be able to make a powerful contribution to peace." Kate thought for a while and then added: "If you are willing."
"I understand what you mean. Everyone wants their country to be strong and prosperous, and I am no exception. But it is not having powerful force to conquer others that is truly prosperous and prosperous. I know this much better than you. "The old magician said.
Kate felt quite embarrassed for a moment. He stood up and apologized: "Dear officiant, please forgive my presumptuous words just now."
The old magician waved his hand and said: "It's okay. Many people will misunderstand each other. As long as the misunderstanding is resolved, it will be fine."
After thinking for a while, the old magician said: "I believe you should know that Mr. Kobe Leo does not agree to launch a war, but he cannot influence the will of the court. Due to Ross's death, the hard-line forces in the original government are Gradually raise your head, and if you want to reverse the current situation, maybe the hope lies with you."
"On us?" Kate asked doubtfully.
"What can we do?" Jerry was equally confused.
Enleco pondered for a moment. He vaguely seemed to have discovered something, and then asked: "Great mentor, are you talking about the fact that we met Fantasi, one of the twelve heroes?"
The old magician nodded and said: "The legend is not just a legend, it also represents the people's hearts. It is difficult for anyone to attack the heroes who founded the country. Therefore, if you want to promote peace, you can create The image of the disciple of the national hero appeared in front of the people of the Kaoqi Kingdom. Sometimes what the people need is a symbol, whether it is a god or a hero, a correct symbol can lead in the right direction. And a correct Direction can prevent many mistakes."
After hearing the old magician's words, the three trial students fell silent. Each of them had their own unique understanding of the old magician's teachings.
What Kate was thinking about was how to use the image of the hero Vantas to create a basis for peace between the two countries.
Jerry only noticed what the old magician said about appearing as a disciple of the founding hero. If he could do this, then he would definitely be safe in the land of Kaoqi Kingdom.
The issues that Enleco was thinking about at this time were completely different from those of the other two trial students. At this time, he neither thought about the security of the Sophie Kingdom nor the invasion of the Kaoqi Kingdom. Instead, he thought about Deep in his heart, he was thinking about the direction over and over again. As for why he thought of this question, Enleco himself could not answer it. However, Enleco vaguely felt that whether it was the Sophie Kingdom or the Kaoqi Kingdom, Neither is quite in the right direction.
The three young people were sitting there silently thinking. In another room, another young man was also deep in thought, but unlike Enleco and the others who were thinking about almost philosophical issues, what this young man faced was completely real. The practical problems in
This young man is Her Royal Highness Princess Franny of the Kingdom of Sophie.
Since the banquet ended, Her Royal Highness the Princess followed the Emperor to the small living room next to her.
Sitting down on the two sofas in the living room, Her Royal Highness the Princess was about to speak, but Hercules III was the first to say: "Dear Her Royal Highness the Princess, you are really beautiful, and you specially chose the color I like. and style of clothing, which moved me quite a lot, but I already knew all your arrangements before you arrived in Kaoqi, and I am very sorry to say to you that I already have a lover I have loved for a long time."
After hearing what Horkels III said, the princess was quite surprised, because from the intelligence collected so far, it seemed that Horkels III was not a very capable, fast-thinking and decisive king. Moreover, judging from all the performances today, Horkels III is indeed as analyzed in the intelligence, a frank and casual young emperor with no dignity. However, he did not expect that once he was alone with him, this ordinary and ordinary man would become What a majestic king immediately showed his edge.
Seeing the princess stunned for a moment, Horkels III continued: "I don't want to base the interests of the two countries on the basis of marriage. Maybe I can tell Her Royal Highness frankly that I don't want to launch a campaign. In the war between the two countries, those who want to provoke the war most are the local nobles. They hope to use the war to further expand their sphere of influence and increase their wealth. All of this is exactly what I don’t want to see. Yes, now except for Kobe Leo and the Holy Knights, almost everyone in the court is in favor of launching a war. These people are mainly the current prime minister Somilet and Duke Haguero. The Somilet family is One of the most powerful nobles in the Kingdom of Kaoqi, Duke Hegeero has the support of all the nobles in the foreign domain. My position is also quite difficult. If it were not for the strong support of Kobe Leo and the Holy Knights, I might not even be able to do so. It’s not easy to keep a seat either.”
"So, will you let them start a war because of the pressure?" the princess asked eagerly.
"If the war can change the fundamental problem I face, I will agree to launch the war. But if war breaks out, the power of those nobles will eventually expand further. What countries will I give them to conquer at that time?"
The princess could clearly feel the teasing in the emperor's words.
Indeed, from the standpoint of Horkels III, he was unwilling to launch a war that would not benefit him in any way. Therefore, out of interests, Horkels III should be in the same position as them. Of course, , All of this has a prerequisite, that is, all what Horkels III said is true.
Should we believe what Horcols III said? If Horcols III's words are true, how should they complete this mission? If they help Horcols III seize power, this hidden king Will it become a new threat to the Sophie Kingdom? If you want to help Horkels III, which aspect should you start from? Is it better to turn the Kaoqi Kingdom into a unified country with Horkels III as the center, or try as much as possible Is it better to divide this powerful country? What is the comparison of strength between the two sides of the Kaoqi Kingdom? How many friends and enemies do they have in front of them? Who are these friends and enemies? Which interest group does the thieves group chasing them in the wasteland belong to
Countless questions floated in the princess's mind.
For the first time, the princess felt the limits of her abilities regarding the various problems in front of her. The princess has always believed that she is a wise leader and a natural diplomat, so she has to do everything. All of this has indeed won her countless praises, and this Once, compared with the secretive Horkels III in front of her, the princess deeply felt that she was far inferior to the emperor in terms of leadership talent, and the ups and downs along the way also made the princess Realizing his immaturity, without the help of seniors like Joe and Mados, he might have died in the wilderness long ago. Now facing so many problems, the princess really hopes that either Qiao or Mados can be by her side. Perhaps for the first time in her life, the princess wonders whether the decision to serve as the leader of this mission is a mistake. decision.
The first informal contact ended very quickly. His Majesty Emperor Horkels III just listed the difficulties he faced to Her Highness the Princess, which made the Princess very troubled. Before discussing it with Qiao and the others, Her Highness the Princess even asked They had no idea, so after a series of polite diplomatic exchanges, the princess took leave of His Majesty and thanked His Majesty for the hospitality he had shown them.
Surrounded by the Holy Knights, Her Royal Highness the Princess returned to the hall. All the members of the envoy were already waiting there. Her Royal Highness the Princess took a look and found that Enleco was missing. Then she shot left and right several times, carefully I checked all the personnel several times, and sure enough, those three bastards who had made a fool of themselves to the point of harming the country were hiding. Now, the princess was in a terrible mood, and she wanted to take the opportunity to vent her anger. Unexpectedly, these smart guys guessed in advance that the angry princess might cause trouble for them, so they had to take the opportunity to escape early.
"Where are Enleco, Kate, and Jerry?" Princess Gilid asked.
Looking at the livid-faced Princess, none of the attendants around her dared to answer casually.
At this time, Joe came over and said: "Enleco and the others were invited by Archbishop Meron to his laboratory. We can go back first."
"Hmph, I think they took the opportunity to escape," the princess said angrily, immediately grasping the key point.
"Hey, why do you care whether they took the opportunity to escape? Just give them a note and go back to settle the matter later. They will come back eventually, and then we will settle the ledger with them." Qiao said
High, really high. At this time, the princess truly admired her uncle from the bottom of her heart.
So insidious, so vicious, with such a long list of charges, I hope I will never fall into the hands of this imperial uncle. This is the view of almost all the members of the mission present.
Her Royal Highness, who finally felt a little more relaxed, returned to the hunting palace in the south of Vedsk City under the protection of the envoys and the escort of the Holy Knights. This is the place specially set aside by His Majesty Horkels III to house the members of the envoy.
As soon as she returned to the station, the princess held a secret meeting with several important figures of the mission. Unfortunately, Kate and Jerry were missing from the original important figures of the mission.
At this time, Kate and the others were wandering outside as the princess expected. They didn't dare to return to the camp for a while. When they thought of going back, they would have to face the furious princess. Enleco and the others were really the bigger one.
Except for Kate, who has a firm belief as a descendant of knights, her confidence has never wavered. The other two people have repeatedly considered the possibility of defecting abroad and requesting political asylum. This may be the bad nature of the two children of profiteers.
However, they didn't know that as soon as they walked out of Archbishop Meron's laboratory, two people quietly entered the room, and one of them arranged for a few men to secretly monitor these young people.
The two people who entered Meron's laboratory were really His Majesty Horcoles III, the Emperor of the Kaoqi Kingdom, and Kobe Leo, the Great Mage.
As soon as he entered the laboratory, Horkels III asked directly: "High Priest, what exactly did you discover just now?"
When Archbishop Meron heard Horculs III's question, he slowly stood up, walked to a desk by the window, picked up a thin crystal mirror from the desk, then turned around and walked back to the laboratory Directly in front of him, with a slight rustling sound, a crystal moon-white light poured down from the roof. High Priest Meilong embedded the crystal thin mirror into the white light, and the light held the crystal mirror firmly like substance. It has to be fixed in mid-air.
The crystal mirror slowly rotated. A golden light is emitted from the crystal mirror, and this light reflects countless images in mid-air. Although these images are not very clear, you can still roughly see what is happening in them. What is surprising is that the images reflected in them are It was exactly the scene where Enleco and the others met the old wolf, and that scene appeared from the images reflected by the golden light.
As the image played, Archpriest Meron sometimes skipped one or two irrelevant scenes, and the final image showed the thrilling fierce battle between Lao Lang and Chris. This fierce battle made Hocoles III and Kobe Leo stare straight in the eyes. Although it was impossible to accurately grasp the fierce battle situation through the blurry images, Hocoles III and Kobe Leo were both interested in magic. Those who have done deep research can still appreciate the intensity of this magical battle, and even their understanding of this fierce battle is far greater than that of Enleco and the four of them who were immersed in it at the time.
As the fierce battle ended, countless bolts of lightning flashed, and then everything became pitch black. When the image appeared again, the scene in front of them had been replaced by Sophie, the capital of the Kingdom of Sophie.
Seeing this, High Priest Meron stopped the rotation of the crystal mirror, and the golden light instantly retracted into the crystal mirror.
Horcoles III, who was tense, and Kobe Leo, who was sweating profusely, found two Jin Tuan sitting next to them.
"I didn't expect that there is such a powerful magician hidden in the Kingdom of Sophie," the great magician Kobe Leo muttered there, "I have never heard of such a person before."
"It seems that our intelligence is not sufficient," said Horkels III.
After a while, Horkels III asked again: "Grand Priest, you should already know the identity of this person."
"Yes, you will never imagine that that person is Princess Chris, the younger sister of the current king of Sophien Kingdom," Archpriest Meron replied.
This answer really shocked the two dignitaries present.
"If those tough guys know this, I don't know if they will have any plans to attack the Kingdom of Sophie again," Kobe Leo, the Great Mage, whispered beside him.
"Indeed, we should consider this. The Kingdom of Sophie has always been famous for its magic. It is not surprising that they have people with various talents in this area. If they want to rely solely on powerful forbidden magic, It may not be possible to make them surrender. If those tough guys are allowed to attack without authorization, the Kaoqi Kingdom may not be far away from being destroyed," said Horkels III.
"Yes, one Mados can make an entire army cross the Valkes Mountains without knowing anything. A trial student Enleco was able to break my forbidden spell and destroy the Mekarus Fortress. Now Another magician was discovered who is not afraid of forbidden spell attacks at all, and his strength is even higher than that of the legendary heroes. There is also a Naga Great Mage in Sophien Kingdom. We still don’t know his strength. As for whether he can still There are other hidden powerful magicians that we are not sure about yet. According to the current situation, it would be a blessing if the Sophie Kingdom did not take the initiative to attack us." Kobe Leo said from the side.
"What do you think, officiant?" Horkels III asked.
"My Majesty, you already have the answer in your mind, don't you?" the chief priest asked.
"Haha, I know it is completely impossible to keep any secrets in front of you." Horkels III continued: "I have already thought about it, and try to avoid a war with the Kingdom of Sophie as much as possible. This time Sophie The En Kingdom sent the envoy to show their goodwill to us, so I want to take this opportunity to form an alliance with them. It is better to be an enemy of such a dangerous opponent than to be a friend of such an opponent."
"Your Majesty, I agree with your opinion," Kobe Leo said with certainty.
"It's just, how do Somyret and Haguero convince them?" Horkels III raised a difficult question.
"My Majesty, I think you have always had enough ability to influence them. Isn't that the truth?" the chief priest asked.
A hint of surprise flashed across the eyes of Horkels III.
The chief priest continued: "Hasn't Your Majesty ever thought about expanding the territory of the Kingdom of Kaoqi, or even unifying the entire world?"
Kobe Leo, the great wizard who couldn't hear what Meron meant at all, sat up straight and looked at the wise man in front of him in confusion.
"Indeed, I really want to expand the entire territory outwards. However, I have not thought about ruling the entire world. This is not something that my generation can accomplish. I just want to leave a more favorable foundation for my descendants to unify. The affairs of the world can be left to the descendants." For the first time, His Majesty the Emperor Horcoles III, who was calm and sophisticated, stood out in front of others.
The great wizard Kobe Leo looked at Horkels III carefully for a long time, as if he didn't know his emperor at all.
Hockers III saw Kobe Leo's surprised expression and smiled: "Young man, don't be surprised, I already had a bit of ambition, haha, because I completely trust you two, I showed my true colors to both of them. I hope you two can still trust me and help me as before."
"So, does it seem that hardliners such as Somilet and Hegeero are also loyal to His Majesty?" asked the great wizard Kobe Leo.
"No, they all have their own ideas and interests. I just make appropriate use of their ambitions to promote the goals I want," Horcoles III smiled.
Suddenly, Horkels III asked the High Priest Meron: "Master Priest Meron, can you predict for me what the future will be like?"
High Priest Meron stood up silently. He gently covered his face with his hands, and sang softly and lowly from his mouth. The long and slow sound seemed to come from the distant starry sky. It's everywhere and nowhere to be found. Following the low chanting, the crystal mirror hovering in mid-air began to rotate slowly again.
A series of golden handwriting appeared out of thin air in mid-air. These words disappeared quickly like burning pieces of paper, and then new handwriting appeared.
Looking at the handwriting appearing in mid-air, High Priest Meilong whispered: "
The ancient stars began to turn slowly.
Visitors from other worlds open a new door.
The angry God of War blew a loud horn.
Countless new visitors will be added to the Netherworld.
The word of truth spreads in twelve directions.
All the kings will sit together.
The new kingdom will have no borders.
After the three festivals a fourth celebration was added.
Everything will last until the next turn of the stars. "
After listening to the prophetic poem recited by the chief priest, Horkels III jumped up with joy. He excitedly rushed out of the laboratory, rushed out of the hall, and walked straight to the center of the square. He strolled around the square. Wandering around, there stood doubtful attendants in the distance. They didn't know why the emperor was so happy. They had never seen his majesty so excited.
In the Meron laboratory, the great wizard Kobe Leo was still sitting quietly in the brocade group, with no happy expression on his face.
Long years of magic practice have made him much deeper than the emperor. He is very clear that since ancient times, God's prophecies have always been vague and confusing to the people of the time. There has never been such a clear prophecy.
Of course, he would never suspect that Meron was causing trouble. The character of the high priest was well known to him, so he immediately thought of another possibility for this prophecy. The prophetic poem might hide another explanation. There have been many incidents in history where people misinterpreted prophecies, among which the most serious The one time was the prophecy that led to the demise of the ancient magic empire.
"
The stars of the zodiac twinkle.
Twelve humans.
will be able to achieve eternal existence. "
Because of this prophecy, there were exactly twelve magic emperors in the ancient magic empire at that time. Therefore, these people believed that they would follow this prophecy and obtain eternal life, so they devoted themselves to researching the method of immortality, which caused resistance in all aspects. In the end, the entire Magic Empire was destroyed, and the twelve heroes from various countries who destroyed the Magic Empire remained famous forever.
Thinking that the same thing would happen to him, the great wizard Kobe Leo was really worried.
"It's a blessing, not a curse. It's a curse that can't be avoided," Chief Priest Mei Long consoled him.
"It would be nice if I could stop worrying. But I know clearly that we are heading towards destruction, but I still want to continue to promote the process of destruction. I am not like you who can see through everything. I will still be confused about the future that I have no idea about. When there are doubts, there will be worries." Kobe Leo said.
"I believe that the final king is definitely not our monarch. Can you tell me who is the final winner?" Kobe Leo asked.
"There is no ultimate winner," Archpriest Meron replied.
"How is this possible?" Kobe Leo, the great wizard, asked doubtfully. After thinking for a moment he asked another question that had been on his mind for a long time: "What is the word of truth."
"Soon, you will know that this word of truth will soon appear in our Kaoqi," the high priest Meron said with a smile.
"So, can you tell me who is the person who dominates the Wheel of Fortune?" Kobe Leo asked with concern, but he did not have high expectations for this report, because since ancient times, All prophets have the problem of being mysterious. After spending so many years with Archbishop Meron, Archmage Kobe Leo knows very well that the master priest also has these common problems of prophets.
Sure enough, the officiating master smiled and said: "The wheel of fortune cannot be pushed by a single person. How could we, our Majesty, and I push this heavy wheel without you?"
Look at the officiant in front of him who smiles like an old fox. Kobe Leo, the great wizard, is really helpless. It is indeed difficult to get clear and reliable information from the prophets. These guys are not giving you some ambiguous information. Tip, I just want to give you an answer that is easy to misunderstand. Many accurate and reliable prophecies were slowly verified by later generations long after the event happened. Therefore, sometimes, Kobe Leo, the great wizard, really feels that it is better to These guys are called prophets. It would be more appropriate to call them mysteries or political commentators. It's a pity that this hateful guy is his old friend.
Thinking of this, the great wizard Kobe Leo shook his head and stood up to say goodbye.
At this time, Archbishop Meron suddenly asked: "Do you have time to go to Sophie's envoy to say hello and ask those young people if they need extras? I was very good at acting when I was young. ,"
"Haha, your acting skills are even more perfect now. How come you are inexplicably interested in acting now?" Kobe Leo, the great wizard, couldn't help laughing.
Chief Priest Meron blinked twice with his completely blind eyes and said with a smile: "How could I let go of this opportunity so easily when I can perform on the same stage as a hero?"
Hearing the meaningful words of the old prophet, Kobe Leo was stunned for a moment, and then nodded. He was also thinking in his mind whether it would be more appropriate for him to have a part in this performance.
After sending away the great wizard Kobe Leo, Meron's laboratory became quiet. The high priest Meron, who was alone, walked to the crystal mirror. At this time, a few lines of text appeared on the crystal mirror again,
"
God's voice is delivered by the devil.
My greatest enemy will accomplish what I cannot accomplish.
The war between gods and demons writes the final chapter.
Order and chaos will merge into one. "
The chief priest fell into deep thought. Even though he was the spokesperson of the gods, Meron still could not fully understand the true intentions of the gods in heaven. He only knew that the gods would use the hands of the three young people to push the wheel of destiny forward. Moreover, he also deeply understood I sensed that the axis of fate was in the hands of the young man named Enleco.
However, the chief priest really did not dare to be extremely certain about God's final prophecy. He just suspected in his heart that Enleco might be a god-tender like him, but Enleco had the power of a demon.
The chief priest could even guess which demon was behind Enleco. The only powerful enemy in the life of Aitalotanskat, the God of Wisdom, is the demon elder Mostracca Orpheus, who is known as the brain of the demons.
