Views:

Queen Madara and a priest of the goddess of the dead moon stood by the podium. The priest wore a black and purple sacrificial robes with a black cloak, clasped on his shoulders with copper buckles, and sacrificial robes under his shoulders. There is a black dragon pattern on each extending to the bottom of the robe. Brando’s striped ornament represents the position of the priest of the goddess of the dead moon in the temple: lower priests mostly use purple moon decorations, and high-level priests can use cats or Skeletons—Distinguish between ordinary priests and executioners, and higher levels of priests and priests. There can be spiders, hydras and wave patterns (the dead are extremely worshipped for the sea of the dead moon), but only one person in the entire dead moon temple can have a dragon The pattern decoration, that is, the priest of the Temple of the Dead Moon.

Brando squinted his eyes. He didn't expect Madara's one and two powerful figures to meet him at the same time. Although he couldn't remember who the chief priest of the Temple of the Dead Moon was at this time, he at least understood the authority of the other party in this era. Not in the slightest under Her Majesty the Queen of Madara, it may even have been vague, after all, before the birth of the Mercury Rod, the Temple of the Dead Moon had enjoyed a transcendent status in this kingdom of the undead for thousands of years.

Seeing the two, Andrea closed her mouth naturally.

Brando saluted the two. Her Majesty remained indifferent, but the chief priest of the Temple of the Dead Moon returned the salute. The etiquette of the undead was very special. They put their right hand on their chest, and their heads naturally hung down as if in silence. This process continued for two or three. Seconds is the highest etiquette for the undead to express their respect for eternal death and rest.

The chief priest is a human being. As we all know, the goddess of the Dead Moon, which represents eternal death and rest, can only be her pastor. There are no undead in the Temple of the Dead Moon. Even the lowest-ranking clerks and apprentices in the temple are all human beings. , This is also a wonder in the empire. But for thousands of years, the temple has been operating in accordance with this rule. The goddess cares for the kingdom of the dead, but will not tolerate the presence of the dead in her kingdom. The undead know this and stick to this rule, day after day. On Sunday, the clergy of the Temple of the Dead Moon gradually became the most numerous members of the human dark aristocracy in Madara.

But although they are humans, Brando knows that this does not mean that they have common interests with most of the creatures on the mainland, just like most necromancers are also humans, but they are also Eruin and Saint Osor. The enemies with the Cruz people are not only the case, they are also the leaders of previous wars, the decision makers, and they happen to be the ones who caused the most serious disasters to various countries.

The identity of the Temple of the Dead Moon is also the same. In Vonde, there is a religious background behind any war, and the undead is no exception. Before the mercury rod came to the world, they unified the undead and launched an attack on Vonde. After the appearance of the Mercury Rod, they once again stood behind the scenes. Brando knew that without the support of the Temple of the Dead Moon, the Queen might not be able to unify the Land of Eternal Death in such a short period of time and be called Mada. Pull the nominal master.

In the following decades, the Temple of the Dead Moon stood firmly behind her, and they frequently lowered the oracle of the goddess of the dead moon to remove all obstacles for the mercury rod until the establishment of this huge empire.

After Brando saluted, he saw Delphine standing aside. The prime minister's daughter noticed Brando's gaze and winked at him, indicating that his negotiation was successful. Brando just breathed a sigh of relief. He is now more afraid that Her Majesty will turn back. Although the mercury rod is still in his hand, he still has the initiative, but who knows that this powerful woman is returning to her familiar territory After that, will you act on them desperately

In the past two months, he has been awakened more than once by the opponent's every shot, telling him what is called a king's mind is unpredictable.

Her Majesty the Queen of Madara naturally noticed this subtle interaction between Brando and Delphine, but she didn't care at all, "This is the chief priest of Philip." She briefly introduced Brando, Brando. It was only then from the cold tone of the Queen that the person in front of him was the'sincere' Philip.

The latter served as the chief priest of the Temple of the Dead Moon from the end of the First Era to the first forty years of the Second Era. His greatest achievement was to support Madara’s unified empire of the Supreme, but Brando did not know whether the opponent was. In which year did he become the chief priest of the Temple of the Dead Moon, he did not expect that he had already ascended to this position right now.

Philip in history is a very low-key person. He was born in a dark noble family in the realm of eternal death. He joined the temple at the age of twelve and became an apprentice in the priesthood. After that, his promotion path was not remarkable. It’s just that I rarely make mistakes, and I am sincere and trustworthy. I am deeply trusted by several of his mentors. The road to promotion is not smooth, but I did not encounter any major setbacks. It seems to be diligent and conscientious. Then all the way into the center of the temple.

The process of his ascent as the chief priest is even more lackluster, because in this era, the Temple of the Dead Moon cannot find a better genius. His only advantage is that he is more suitable than several other competitors. For this reason, he Got the most respected position in the kingdom of Dead Moon.

Logically speaking, such a person's character should lack the kind of speculative speculativeness that great people often see. To put it bluntly, it is the lack of courage to make an all-out effort. He should be modest and cautious and like to stick to the stereotypes, but this is the case. A person, he stood firmly behind the mercury rod from the very beginning, even when the power of the emperor of Madara had not yet emerged, he had never wavered. His whole life was almost The life that contributed to the unification of the dead moon empire by the Mercury Rod, according to many players' jokingly, according to the support of the "good old man" Philip, even a pig should become the emperor of Madara.

This statement is not unreasonable. Before the rise of the Mercury Rod, the Temple of the Dead Moon held almost all the right to speak in this dark kingdom. As the chief priest of the Temple of the Dead Moon, the only difference between him and the emperor of the later empire was the undead lord. We don't have absolute dominance, other than that, there is no difference between him and the Most High.

However, a person with such power and influence chose to create a person standing on the temple, as if actively surrendering the power of the temple. Some people think that this is to achieve the unity of the empire. However, some people questioned that he did not have such ambitions. Some people thought that he had received the oracle from the goddess of the dead moon. However, all theories could not generalize the chief priest of the temple of the dead moon until he removed the temple of the dead moon. Until the post of chief priest gave way to the latecomers, all the legends about him seemed to be a confusing mystery.

Speaking of it, Brando is the first time he has met this celebrity in history, but there are too many heroes and legends in this era. At least compared to the woman next to him, this Philip main priest is actually nothing. And in his mind, the sense of existence of the chief priest is exactly the same. His experience seems to be legendary, but he can't stand careful scrutiny, and it feels very ordinary. Compared with ordinary people, he is more mysterious. However, compared with the real legendary heroes of this era, he is nothing more than that.

But in any case, anyone who has heard of this person will be more or less curious about the latter. What is curious is what is in his heart at this moment, what kind of belief, and supports him firmly Stand behind the Mercury Rod until the dark empire is unified.

At this moment, Brando looked at the bishop, and he couldn't help having such thoughts in his heart.

Philip seemed to be a little stupid enough to not notice his gaze. After returning to Brando, he took off the hat of the sacrificial robe and revealed a somewhat pale face. It was a middle-aged man with no special features. There are still some gray-brown patches on his face and cheeks, like corpse spots. Due to the long-term erosion of dark magic, this is a notable feature of the clergyman of Claes.

But it was just such a middle-aged man who seemed to be a little solemn. After her Majesty the Queen of Madara had introduced him to Brando, she turned her head and looked at the latter, as if asking for his opinion.

Brando noticed this spectacle, and he couldn't help looking at the old man, only to see Philip nodded dumbly.

Her Majesty the Queen turned her head and looked at him: "Mr. Earl, there are so many young people who have been around these days, so that I can't spare time to welcome you all. There is so much negligence, you will not Blame it?"

Brando naturally wouldn't take Her Majesty's polite words seriously, he shook his head.

Her Majesty nodded with satisfaction: "So very good. The promise I made to you on the battlefield that day has now been fulfilled for most of the time. I believe Mr. Earl will not ignore the sincerity shown by Madara, right?"

Brando nodded again.

"Now, Madara's army has been evacuated from Eruin, and those criminals whom Mr. Count wants to punish, have now been handed over to you. I am also satisfied with the requirements of Mr. Count. I A huge concession was made, but presumably Mr. Earl also understands that the transaction is mutual, right?"

For this sentence, Brando can be said to have been waiting for a long time. He knows that Her Majesty is not a person who blindly retreats. She is weak on the one hand, so it can only show that she must be conspiring on the other. It's just that he hasn't sorted out his clues these days, what is the reason for the other party to make such a big concession.

Perhaps in the eyes of others, this was to get the mercury rod back, but Brando, as the party concerned, knew that the mercury rod was handed to him by Her Majesty.

So everything she did that day, she needs another answer to explain it right now.
