Ge Lie lightly twisted his beard and said: "No matter who succeeds the Assyrian Empire and who is in power, first of all, it must maintain the stability of the empire and control the situation. The assassination of the emperor is a major event. If it is not handled well, it may trigger a mutiny. In order to prevent civil strife, it is also necessary to show strength to the outside world, and at the same time prevent being attacked by others. It is inevitable to make arrangements for heavy troops to overwhelm the border. As for whether this battle can be fought or not, it depends on the attitude of the Kingdom of Baron."
Prince Feng Niu nodded and said: "Once the news of Sinakh's assassination spreads, the people of the Baron Kingdom will be greatly boosted! Assyria's military expansion has reached its limit, and the large territory occupied behind the front line needs to be consolidated. In fact, it is unable to continue to launch in this period. Large-scale battles, this can be seen by the top leaders of all countries.
But ordinary people and soldiers feel differently. Sinach's brutality is terrifying. I heard that he has killed with his troops, and sometimes the people of the city-state flee before the battle, and the city-state's garrison is also collapsed. But now that the situation has changed, it can gather the confidence of the people and stabilize the Rees River defense line. I will send envoys in the name of the king to express condolences to the Assyrian Empire and Queen Semir, and not to provoke them for the time being, nor to provoke an excuse for war. "
Ge Lie nodded: "That's good. Since you have made such an arrangement, our goal of assassinating Sinah has been achieved. I left the city-state of Syria in the name of visiting Salem, but I went all the way to the city of Rees. I also brought the high priest of the city-state of Syria, my student Wallace, here. The days of leaving are not short, and we are going back."
The great magician was straightforward, got up to leave after saying these words, and everyone walked out of the curtain together to see them off. Before Ge Lie left, he looked back at Feng Niu and Princess Xiaoqian meaningfully, and finally said: "I heard that Hammurabi II is seriously ill. Whoever inherits the throne of Baron should take care of himself." , the turmoil in Tianshu Continent is by no means over."
Everyone stood in the open space and watched Ge Lie and Hua Laite take the shuttle away, but Yolio didn't go with them, and was still standing behind Amon. Princess Xiaoqian asked suddenly: "Feng Niu, you said that you don't want to provoke the Assyrian Empire right now, but the assassin is Jill, and everyone knows that he is the hero of the Baron Kingdom, and it is impossible for the Assyrian Empire not to track down the assassin and give an explanation to its subjects." , how do you plan to deal with it?"
Prince Feng Niu gritted his teeth and said: "This is not easy to handle! Just say that Jill cannot be found, and no one knows his whereabouts. This is how it is handled in diplomacy. It is a step down to save face. Does anyone really dare to go deep into the Baron Kingdom?" Are you looking for Jill? With a hero like Jill, the morale of the army and the people will be boosted, and the Baron Kingdom is not really afraid of war."
Gilgamesh waved his hand and said: "If the Assyrian Empire really wants to track down the murderer, you can tell them that the Baron Kingdom will assist in the hunt, and let them send someone to find me. It depends on luck! After I left the city-state of Uruk, the affairs of the continental countries have nothing to do with me, and the assassination of Sinach this time is just doing God Amon a favor. Ge Lie is gone, and I should go too."
Princess Xiaoqian pouted and said, "Jill, are you going to leave me alone again?"
Gilgamesh turned to look at her and said, "Whether I go alone depends on your decision, Your Royal Highness."
Prince Feng Niu hurriedly interjected: "My aunt, His Majesty the King is seriously ill, and the kingdom is still waiting for you to go back to preside over the overall situation. After the current turmoil is over, you and Jill can completely show up in public and become the heroes of the kingdom. At that time... "
Princess Xiaoqian interrupted him: "My nephew, after going through these things, everything in the court has nothing to do with me. I hope you can become a successful monarch in the future." After speaking, he walked to Gilgamesh Shi's side, and said to him, "Jill, take me with you."
Gilgamesh made a chic invitation gesture: "My princess, please get in the car!"
Princess Xiaoqian said again: "Jill, please wait!"
She returned to the curtain again, picked up the jug and filled a glass, walked out to Medanzuo with the glass in both hands, bowed and handed the wine glass and said: "My hero, I don't know how to express my gratitude to you! Before leaving, please ask Xiaoqian to toast you with a glass of wine."
Mei Danzuo couldn't tell what expression was on his face, took the glass and drank it down, waved his hand very chicly and said: "Your Highness, I wish you and Jill a safe journey."
Gilgamesh drove away with Princess Xiaoqian in a carriage, and soon disappeared into the distant mountains. They have since become legends in the mainland. story.
When they left, Mei Danzuo looked at the disappearing carriage and then at the lonely white horse in the clearing, and said to himself, "No matter what I do, it's not him after all!" I'm lonely.
Putting a hand on his shoulder, Amon smiled and said, "Of course you are not him. In this life, you are yourself. But after all, you have witnessed him and their stories. Do you understand?" ?”
Hearing the words, Mei Danzuo was thoughtful, lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking, and was in a trance for a moment. Amon's hand on his shoulder supported his arm, and said with a smile: "Have you realized it? Your time is up!"
What does Amon's words mean, and when is the time? Mei Danzuo's mana and practice accumulation are enough, and at this moment he finally realized the state of endless life, and is about to meet the test of breaking through the ninth level achievement. Amon ordered Mei Danzuo to rush back to the Garden of Eden immediately, not to re-enter the world until he broke through the test, and asked Yunmeng and Yaolio to escort him.
Yunmeng asked: "God Amon, we are all gone, where are you going?"
God Amon smiled and said to Prince Feng Niu: "I have been to Barron City before, but I didn't have the opportunity to climb the famous Tongtian Tower in the mainland. I want to visit the old place again. I wonder if the guard priest under the tower will let me go?"
Feng Niu was stunned, and then realized that Amon was going to see Marduk. It is said that he could directly summon this god to appear by climbing to Marduk's human palace on the top of the Babel Tower outside Baron City. This is just a legend, and no one has the guts to try this, but Amon, as a god, can go to Marduk himself. He bowed and replied, "Are you going to Baron City? It is an honor for Feng Niu to accompany you!"
…
Accompanied by Prince Feng Niu, Amon went to Baron City, while General Robin stayed on the west bank of the Rees River and led the army to deploy the defense. He was not only the commander of the Baron Legion, but Feng Niu temporarily appointed him as the commander-in-chief of the defense line. As for Feng Niu himself, he could not stay on the front line, because the king was seriously ill, and he had to be ready to succeed at any time.
Princess Xiaoqian has given up the idea of fighting for the throne and left with Gilgamesh. No matter what kind of will Hammurabi II makes, currently only Prince Feng Niu can control the Baron kingship.
Ge Lie's judgment was indeed correct. On the second day after Sinach's assassination, the Assyrian Empire urgently mobilized an army to the border of the Rees River, and confronted the Baron army led by General Robin across the river. Look on guard. At present, the two countries are in a state of peace, and this kind of army transfer seems unusual, and the emergency deployment of the Assyrian army seems to be hasty, just making a show.
On the way back to the city, Prince Feng Niu had been paying attention to the news of the Assyrian Empire. It was impossible for the Assyrian Empire not to announce such a big event as the assassination of Sinah. If it is revealed that Gilgamesh is an assassin, Prince Feng Niu is ready to deal with the Assyrian envoy. Three days later, the news of Sinach's assassination came. It was the announcement issued by the regent Queen Semir, but Feng Niu was slightly surprised by the content.
It is said that the invincible Assyrian Emperor Sinakh was seriously injured in a battle and is currently recuperating in the palace of the city-state of Lys. As for the "enemy" who fought with him, Gilgamesh was not mentioned in the announcement of the Assyrian Empire, nor were Goret and Metanzor mentioned. There was only one god's name—the god Amon.
Sinach was obviously punched by Gilgamesh, and Amon didn't even touch him with a finger. Why did the hat get on Amon's head? Semir's announcement like this naturally has her considerations. No matter who she hates in her heart, starting from her current position, she must first maintain the stability of the Assyrian Empire and not fall into chaos because of Sinah's assassination.
Judging from the imperial announcement, there is no mention of how badly Sinach was injured, and it feels like he can recover after treatment. To control the situation of the Assyrian Empire, it is necessary to rely on Sinah's prestige and keep the glory of the great emperor. Only when the invincible Assyrian Emperor is wounded by the gods can he not lose his prestige and the prestige of the empire! Even if it wasn't Amon who did it, it must be Amon who did it.
The announcement said that there was an earth-shattering battle between Emperor Sinach and the god Amon. Although he was injured, he severely injured the god, defeated him and had to escape in embarrassment. There is a bit of truth in this. Amon was indeed injured, and he lost his mana and escaped from the battlefield to the west bank of the Rees River, but that was not done by Sinaher.
As for not mentioning Ge Lie's name, there is another consideration. If it is said publicly but not pursued, what is the majesty of the Assyrian Empire? But if you want to pursue it, Ge Lie's status in the Hatti Kingdom may also mean provoking disputes between the two countries. The Assyrian Empire currently has no spare power to attack Hatti. Although Emperor Sinach had this plan, it was only a wish for the future.
Sinach is extremely cruel and famous, and is hated by countless people on this continent. Whoever succeeds in assassinating Sinach will become a hero praised and truly grateful by all people, with unimaginable glory. Now all the glory belongs to Amon alone, not even his disciple Mei Danzuo. I wonder what kind of wry smile Amon will show when he hears this
But none of the high-ranking Assyrian Empire in Rees City can laugh at the moment. Only they know how badly Sinach was injured. Rather than saying that he is still alive, it is better to say that he is a walking dead who can only breathe. According to the news from the palace, although Emperor Sinach could not move or speak, he has not completely lost consciousness. Only the sage, the national teacher, can use magical means to communicate with His Majesty in the soul.
At present, Sinach is being guarded day and night by the priests sent by the sage, the master of the state, in the palace, and they take turns to perform magic to maintain his life.
The top leaders of the empire are currently concerned about one thing, who will the Emperor Sinach pass on to? No matter what kind of will he made, it seems that only Faust can convey it at present. Interested people are also doubting one thing. Emperor Sinach is actually not conscious, but what Faust said in this name will become the emperor's order, and even the will can be fabricated. But doubts are doubts, and no one can question them openly, because the regent Queen Semir has a lot of trust in the sage national teacher.
Sinach was assassinated in the city of Paduris, which was far away from the Assyrian mainland. The incident happened suddenly, and the Assyrian Empire suddenly had no leader. If nothing else, it will be Semir who will control the empire in the future.
Whoever wants to control the situation in the Assyrian Empire must balance three forces. The first is the group of priests representing theocracy, and the most important thing is to obtain the support of Faust, the sage and national teacher, and Faust fully supports Semir. The second is the strength of the military. The army cannot be changed at this time. Semir immediately transferred the empire's heavy troops to the city-state of Reese to control the military power in the name of preventing the Baron Kingdom from counterattacking.
The third-party force is the bureaucratic and aristocratic group of the empire. No matter who they support, their first choice is to protect their own interests, and choose to stand in line when they see the limelight. Most speculators are also looking at the attitude of the priest group and the military. As long as Sinakh is still alive, there is no obstacle for Semir's regency. But everyone is concerned about the same thing, will Sinach die, when will he die
In the middle of the night, there were two people in the palace who were doing secret business, they were Faust and Semir. Samir sat in the center of the inner hall where Sinach had originally been. Faust obviously had a seat, but he kept standing and talking with his body slightly bowed.
I only heard Semir ask: "How long can you keep His Majesty alive?"
Faust replied: "If the priests try their best to take care of him in turn, there will be no problem within half a year, and I can even let him live forever." After thinking about it, he added cautiously: "It is impossible for His Majesty to wake up. Yes, he can die at any time. It will be up to you to decide when to let him die."
Semir's expression was a bit sad: "His life is no longer his own, but only has a symbolic meaning to others. He must still live until the situation stabilizes. He has pursued the achievements of Megatron Continent all his life, and let the world live in his life." Trembling under the horse's hooves. He did it, but he didn't expect such a result, did he?"
The all-powerful Assyrian Emperor Sinakh, at the moment when his achievements and prestige reached the peak, ended up in a situation where he could not survive or die. If the emperor was still conscious, what would he be thinking
Faust looked at Queen Semir and reminded cautiously: "Whether the situation of the empire can be stabilized depends on what we do. Everyone is trying to figure out your attitude and guess what national policy you will adopt after taking power. Consider it?"
Semir's eyes seemed to be looking at the distant void, and he answered irrelevantly: "The reason why we stopped Sinach's atrocities is that we don't want to see the disasters caused by his atrocities. In addition to pity for the innocent, there is also a sense of justice. A deeper fear. Master Sage, do you know what this fear is?"
There was a faint tingling feeling in Faust's soul. It was the imprint left by Satan that was accidentally touched again, which made him feel burning with inexplicable desire, but he lowered his head and replied, "I would like to hear about it."
Samir went on to say: "We are afraid of ourselves, afraid that we will have to wield our swords and guns like this forever, until we collapse from exhaustion. We are also afraid of suffering the same fate in the future, accepting the same fate as those who were brutally slaughtered. Assyria Wherever the iron hoof passes, there is as much hatred as there is pain.
In history, no empire on the mainland can remain absolutely invincible and strong forever. When Assyria was weak, although it suffered a lot in Pian An, it was not brutally slaughtered. When it was strong, it left corpses everywhere. If the reincarnation of history brought Assyria back to its former era, would it still exist as it did back then
I saw the fear, deep in Sinach's heart, he may not have been aware of it, but it must be extremely strong at this moment. This fear was also rooted in the souls of all Assyrian conquerors, though they were unwilling to touch them. They are afraid that one day in the future, they will be trampled and slaughtered by iron hooves just like the people they once conquered. "
Faust couldn't help shivering, but the burning sensation in his soul became even stronger, and the words that Satan said echoed in his mind again, "People's beliefs are always the masters of their hearts, I just Let you examine your heart. Please release your wish and tell yourself how to realize it." So he coughed and said: "Your Majesty, I want to tell a story——
There is such a world, there are two families in the world, one family is prosperous and rich, while the other family is weak and poor. They were far away, and finally met one day. The poor and weak envied the prosperous. Then one day the prosperous family fell ill, another family broke into their house, robbed their property and slaughtered their wives and children.
There has been a deep fear in the world ever since, that the Slayer fears that another family member will recover from his illness, that he will grow strong again. Because in that case, it means that one's sins will be liquidated, one's wealth will be plundered, and one's family will be slaughtered. That's what he'd done before, and he didn't dare to repent and couldn't.
He can't and can't truly confess his sins, can't return the stolen wealth, can't atone for his sins with deeds, and can only consolidate his own power to try to weaken the opponent forever and occupy everything he has obtained. Whenever the other party recovers from illness, he will think about another slaughter and looting. The idea is simple—because you are poor, you suffer; because you are recovering, you are my threat. "
The story of Faust was only half told here, and Samir interrupted him: "You are talking about two families, if the other family also accepts this idea, if there are many other families in the world who think the same way, Then no matter how prosperous this world is, there is no hope. Maybe the peak of prosperity is the end of the world, what should be used to describe that day, the end?"
