After the Black Death gradually subsided, Orville and Archibald also returned to their respective territories.
They must go back to see how the situation in the territory is, and make decisions about the deployment after the epidemic.
So this time, only His Holiness the Pope came with him during his trip to Amy.
Xia Zoe couldn't help but ask the Pope—won't you go back to the St. Airo Empire to see how the Holy Church is now
During the Black Death, although the Holy Church was quarantined and closed in time, many clergymen neglected to take precautions, contracted the disease and died.
Now that the Black Death is over, although the Holy Church will not be in chaos, there are some things that need to be well arranged.
His Majesty's answer is that if he doesn't go back, his business is not over yet.
There were two cardinals in the Holy Church who took care of everything without any problems.
Segalot was relieved about this.
Xia Zuoyi wondered—what took so long to do without a clue
And looking at the appearance of the Pope, he was not in a hurry, but he didn't seem to be paying little attention to this matter.
Xia Zuoyi said: "Your Majesty, if you need my help in this matter, just say it..."
He was a little curious.
Hearing the words, Segalot's gaze at Xia Zoe couldn't help but become meaningful, he said, "Will you help me?"
Xia Zoe nodded as a matter of course.
"You also helped me a lot during the Black Death."
Segalot smiled, his gilded eyes seemed to contain deep meaning.
He stretched out a hand and gently picked up the hair that was blowing beside Xia Zuoyi's cheek, and said in a low voice, "Okay, then you have to remember, then... don't reject me."
But to help something, he did not continue to say.
Today is the rainy and rainy weather that is unique to the southernmost side. It is cloudy for thousands of miles and the wind is not strong, but there is a coldness that can get into the bones.
This is probably the last rain before welcoming the warmth.
Xia Zuoyi put on a cloak after a long absence and felt warm all over.
He and His Majesty the Pope stood by the window in the house. The wind blew in through the open window, and the hair around his ears rose slightly, making his cheeks itchy.
At this time, the disobedient strand of hair was picked up by the Pope himself, and then slowly slipped down his fingers...
In the end, only the ends of the remaining hair were twisted under the fingertips.
That little movement seems to be gradually being passed along the Pope's fingers to his cheeks, the tips of his ears...
Xia Zuoyi looked into the eyes of His Majesty the Pope seriously and said, "I remember, I don't refuse."
He felt that after saying this, His Holiness the Pope seemed to smile even more... Happier
I always feel a little strange, but I can't say why.
…
The kingdom of Amy is in ruins.
The massive shrinking of the population has dealt a blow to the country in many ways - especially the urgent need to solve the problem of people's food and clothing.
Kuntat, the prince of Amy, has done too much harm to this country.
In addition to brutally killing everyone who might be sick, his sins also include the crazy and useless actions he made in order to recover when he later contracted the Black Death.
—The eldest prince Kunta ordered people to burn down nearly half of the houses in the royal city, and destroyed most of the shops and properties...
Fortunately, he died before the eldest prince was about to do something even crazier.
Even many houses in the present city of Amy Kingdom are dilapidated.
Although people have escaped the torment of the disease, their expressions are still numb.
Although the fear and pain caused by the Black Death are gradually dissipating, the hopeless life continues...
There is no retreat behind, and no hope ahead.
The people of Amy are pinning their hopes on Lord Desinia to make some changes.
Because the situation in Amy's country is really serious.
Therefore, after presenting Amy Kingdom to Xia Zuoyi, the second prince Nittaya was not in a hurry to leave, he hoped to contribute to the recovery of Amy Kingdom.
Xia Zoe is happy for Nitaya to stay and can ask him a lot about Amy Kingdom.
As the second prince of the Amy Kingdom, Nitaia, the last member of the royal family, probably no one will know which direction to develop the Amy Kingdom better than him.
He told Xia Zuoyi's questions in detail.
Xia Zuoyi was too busy to touch the ground after arriving in the country of Ami, and often disappeared.
Later, Segalot found someone and said, "You can also come and ask me."
"I traveled everywhere in the South before taking over as Pope."
"What you have to do now is not only to restore the lives of the people of Amy, but also to integrate the territories around Amy, those territories that have surrendered to you..."
Some insights from the Pope can really inspire Xia Zoe.
So, Xia Zuoyi went to ask him often.
While in Amy's country, Xia Zoe also paid attention to the situation of the Saint Air Empire.
He learned that the request for help from the Saint Air Empire did not go well.
And the worst situation happened.
- The Kingdom of Bia wanted to break away from the status of a vassal of the Saint Air Empire. King Asa Derek had already sent a letter to Gena Cosmo, hoping to reach a cooperation with the Kingdom of Powell.
Garner agreed.
The union of the Kingdom of Powell and the Kingdom of Bia gradually forced the Saint Air Empire to give up some border territories.
The fringe territories occupied by the robbers were destroyed by the cavalry led by Prince Warner himself.
These things were reported by Fernandi.
Xia Zoe felt strange: "Is the Empire of Saint Air going to make concessions to the Kingdom of Bia?"
After all, it should be more important to prevent the Kingdom of Bia from breaking away from the Empire and the Kingdom of Powell to intervene...
Fernandi said: "That prince thinks so too."
"But His Majesty the King of the Saint Air Empire rejected his suggestion and ordered him to personally lead the cavalry to destroy the robbers first, and then stop the Kingdom of Bia from breaking away from the empire..."
At that time, the Kingdom of Bia had not yet united with the Kingdom of Powell.
But the eldest prince Warner anticipated that such a situation might happen in advance, so he proposed to the king and planned to lead the cavalry to the Kingdom of Bia in person.
But finally...
After Warner led the cavalry to destroy the robbers, he had missed the best opportunity to stop the Kingdom of Bia and the Kingdom of Powell.
Xia Zoe nodded thoughtfully.
He remembered that in the original book, the male protagonist rushed back from the border when the epidemic was about to end, and happened to meet the female protagonist on the street who was helping the people in Wangcheng.
After the plot of getting to know each other, the male protagonist continued to rush to the palace.
As early as during the epidemic, His Majesty the King of the Saint Airo Empire had already died of a disease.
No one in the palace is in charge.
The third prince, Kaxiu, wanted to surpass everyone and ascend to the throne, but he never succeeded because of the joint efforts of the second prince Kane and the princess Renner.
- Until the male protagonist Warner returned to the palace safely, this farce of succession was ended...
Xia Zuoyi thought that because of him, the old king who should have died in the epidemic successfully saved his life.
But now it seems to have become a drag on the male protagonist.
As for the heroine of the original book, Samuel Phoebe.
- She stayed at home honestly during this epidemic, and only followed to rescue the people in the city when Doctor Bird's Mouth appeared.
Like the Thorns Chamber of Commerce, distribute some food and so on to the families in need.
Samuel Phoebe's actions have earned her a good reputation in the royal city of the empire.
Xia Zoe doesn't pay much attention to his reputation now.
He opened the system interface and looked at the plot deviation value in the upper right-the plot had already deviated by 82%.
The end of an epidemic directly increased his plot deviation by about 30.
Xia Zoe relaxed a little.
He believed that when the reconstruction of Amy and the surrounding territories went smoothly and ended, the plot deviation value should increase by a large margin.
After the kingdom of Amy got better, the second prince Nitaia came to bid Xia Zoe goodbye.
He plans to set out on a tour of the continent with Joton and Wright Green.
After viewing the southernmost scenery, they went to the west, where they went to see the life of the tribe.
That's where the black panther lives.
Zoe Xia made a simple farewell for them.
Before leaving, His Holiness the Pope called Wright Green aside to talk alone.
Before leaving, Xia Zoe saw Wright Green, who had been talked to, looked strange and seemed to be frightened...
Moreover, Xia Zuoyi found that Wright looked at him strangely, and then quickly looked away, pretending that nothing happened.
Xia Zuoyi tilted his head in doubt: "...?"
What did His Holiness say to him? !
After they left, Xia Zoe asked the Pope side-by-side.
Segalot: "I asked Green about something he's more experienced with... useful."
Xia Zuoyi was even more curious when he heard the words: "What is he more experienced? What is it?"
The Pope curled his lips and smiled, put a finger on the tip of Xia Zuoyi's nose, and snorted: "It's a secret now."
Xia Zuoyi understood the meaning of his words: "I will know later?"
"certainly."
The Pope lowered his voice, bent over and said softly in Xia Zuoyi's ear: "I will only let you know this secret in the future, okay?"
The warm breath sprayed on the ears, cheeks...
Xia Zuoyi only felt that a hot air was rapidly evaporating from his chest, which instantly made his ears red and his cheeks hot.
He resisted the urge to rub it, and looked at the Pope with caramel-colored eyes: "Okay, then you must remember to tell me."
Segallot nodded: "I promise."
…
After the Pope left, Xia Zuoyi frowned and covered her chest, pressed her heart that was beating a little faster, and whispered, "No, don't fall in love..."
"Be honest with me... don't jump."
Xia Zoe rubbed her cheeks again, and then walked away with her hands behind her back.
098 went out for a trip this time and came back in the early morning of the day.
Xia Zuoyi just got up at this moment and is getting dressed.
He received a message in the system interface that 098 was going to give him a gift - after he needed to find a place where no one was around, he raised his head and said to Judit with a constant expression.
- He has something to do, he has to take the beasts out, and the rest don't need to follow.
Judit headed.
Afterwards, Xia Zuoyi froze in front of the gift from 098 in a deserted place outside the city of Ami - a... a fat dumpling in black and white
Xia Zuoyi silently covered her fast-beating heart, her voice trembling a little: "... Roll?!"
