Chapter 850 The Information of Megall III

Night falls.

Stars shrouded the night sky of Cecil City. The starlight and the artificial lights on the ground complemented each other. Some kind of thin halo filled the sky above the city, giving the starlight a hazy and illusory texture. Sir Gorosh looked up. Looking at the stars in this foreign country, I heard the faint sound of music coming from the bustling street in the distance.

The starry sky in Longlinbao is brighter than here, but the night is also colder. It is not as prosperous as here, but there is another kind of solemnity.

If you put aside personal feelings, which is better, this is really a difficult question to answer.

Asarena's voice came from the side, interrupting Ser Gorosh's thoughts: "Sir, your daughter has left, and if you want to blow the cold wind here for a few hours, then I will not accompany you. It's on - the warm room and the nightcap are calling to me."

Gorosh woke up from his thoughts and looked away from the dark night sky. He glanced in the direction where Maggie left, and shook his head with a complicated smile: "Do you think Maggie will meet me tonight, it's Gawain Sethi Did you arrange it?"

"As long as we stand here, everything that happens around us can be regarded as the result of Emperor Cecil's arrangement. It's pointless to struggle with this," Asharena glanced at Gorosh, "The key is whether you are willing or not. Accepting these 'arrangements' and whether these 'arrangements' affect your judgment as an ambassador."

Having said that, the Dragon Seal Witch paused and added: "As for my personal opinion - this is not a bad thing. All the actions of Gawain Cecil so far have been in proportion, and he is very Carefully taking care of Dragonborn's feelings and working hard to move the whole thing forward, you can see tonight's event as an 'arrangement', but you can also see it as a gesture of goodwill and sincerity."

Gorosh was silent for a few seconds in contemplation, and then spoke before Asarena urged: "Ms. Asarena, I'm afraid I have to trouble you again - please contact Longlinbao again."

Asarena sighed deliberately: "...Well, I knew it would be like this."

...

The night wind blew into the study.

Gawain raised his head from the pile of documents and saw Amber's figure rapidly emerging from the air.

"How's it going?" he asked casually.

"The father and daughter talked for a long time, except for a little accident at the beginning, the overall atmosphere seems to be quite harmonious," Amber reported the results of his stalking, "But according to your instructions, I didn't get too close. No eavesdropping on people's private affairs - I don't know exactly what they were talking about."

"Well, it's mainly based on your strength. If you get close, it's easy to be beaten to death," Gawain nodded, "It doesn't matter, after all, our main purpose is just to let Maggie and Ser Gorosh meet. Whatever results it can produce... just as it happens, we don't count on that."

Amber did not refute Gawain's comment that "it's easy to be beaten to death", but nodded in agreement, and then glanced curiously at the pile of documents in front of Gawain's eyes: "... Are there so many?"

"Construction projects all over the country have been launched, and there are new diplomatic, economic, military, and industrial plans. Although each department has special personnel in charge, there are still many things that I need to personally ask about," Gao Wen looked at the mountains and piled up in front of him. He glanced at the document and smiled helplessly, "Actually, it's fine, and there aren't many things that make people particularly troublesome."

Amber scratched his hair and muttered, "I'm going to blow my head every day just by processing the intelligence compiled by the MIB..."

Gao Wen's action of flipping through the documents suddenly stopped, and after a while he smiled: "When the computing center is officially opened, the situation will be much better - a lot of work can be done by machines and networks,

The clerks and assistant administrators will have the energy to deal with more important things, and after the efficiency is improved, our work..."

"Our work will increase accordingly, from reviewing ten documents a day to reviewing a hundred documents a day, you can solve things quickly every day that can be solved in days before, but you will find queuing. There is still no end to the problem you solve—" Amber rolled her eyes and kept talking in a life-like tone, "I've been following you for several years, at least change your mind the next time you fool me. what……"

Gawain stared blankly at Amber, who seemed to be fully enlightened, and suddenly felt that the progress of this half-elf over the years by his side was not inferior to others at all—this guy is getting harder and harder to deceive.

At this moment, a special breath suddenly disturbed Gawain's perception. After a little recognition, he nodded to Amber across the table: "A guest is here."

Amber's first reaction was to take out the power sap from behind his waist: "Well, I'll..."

"No, it's really a guest," Gawain realized that his words were ambiguous, and waved his hand quickly, "Put that thing away—Megall, you can show up."

As his voice fell, an invisible magic wave suddenly emerged out of thin air, and all the lights in the study seemed to be disturbed by invisible force, becoming slightly dimmed, and one after another mixed with dark purple shadows and undulating waves in the shadows The starlight condensed in the center of the room—these stars and shadows quickly converged into an ebb and flow of starlight aggregates that floated over the room like some kind of ghost.

Amber was taken aback by this sight, and before he could ask what it was, a low humming voice came from the aggregate of starlight: "Ye'an, Your Majesty, and this... nervous half-elf lady. With all due respect, ma'am, the weapon in your hand probably won't do me any good, I lost my head many years ago."

Amber stared blankly at the starlight that was rising and shrinking. Although she was taken aback, she had already reacted after the other party spoke, and quickly matched the information in her head, raising her eyebrows: " Megol III? Pope of the Eternal Sleeper?"

"It's over," the astral aggregate said flatly, "you can call me Megall directly - now I'm just an ordinary Cecil citizen, allegiance to His Majesty Gawain Cecil."

Amber twitched the corners of his mouth and muttered casually while putting away his power sap: "Okay, after issuing certificates to a ball of arcane light, an iron ball, and a tree, now we're going to give a ball of... flash. Smoke makes ID cards."

She looked at Gao Wen: "Then do I need to avoid it?"

"No, you can stay here," Gawain nodded to Amber, then looked at Megall III, "Her name is Amber, and she is my intelligence minister. What do you want to say to me when you come here?"

"Minister of Intelligence... I understand," Megall made a slight trembling sound, the shapeless starlight shrank slightly and lowered its height, and stopped in front of Gawain as if communicating face-to-face, "Your Majesty, you have already You accepted the personnel we transferred to Cecil as promised, and helped us solve the crisis of the upper-level narrator before, then according to the previous agreement, all the technology and secrets of the Eternal Sleeper belong to you.

"I'm here today to fulfill the promise.

"I have some secrets related to the Typhon royal family, I wonder if you are interested?"

Gawain's eyes changed slightly imperceptibly, and then said in a deep voice, "Which aspect?"

"It's related to the curse of the Augustus family that lasted for two hundred years."

"...I'm very interested," Gawain said, and then looked up and down the group of starlight aggregates floating in the air, "Do I need to prepare a chair for you? You communicate with me like this, I always feel like I'm letting you The guests are standing."

"No, I'm used to it," Megall III responded. "Of course, if you don't feel well, you can give me a chair and I can float over and pretend to sit on it."

"...Forget it," Gawain imagined the scene and shook his head, "You can start talking."

"First from the time of Typhon's old imperial capital, Orandel," said Megall, "you should know that the headquarters of the Order of the Eternal Sleepers is deep underground in the ruins of Orandel, and the curse of the Typhon royal family It also appeared after the collapse of Orandel... and in fact, the Eternal Sleeper was already active underground long before the collapse of Orlandel."

Part of what Megall said was information that Gawain had already mastered, and he had long had doubts about that area, and when he heard Megall's last words, he immediately frowned: "So the key to everything is It's Orlandale—what the hell is that place?"

"...It's a fragment of the God of Dreams, Your Majesty, right under the ground in Orandel."

Gawain's breathing stagnated for a while, but after this brief and tiny reaction, his expression was much calmer than Megall imagined.

"You don't seem surprised?"

"As expected," Gawain shook his head, "Eternal Sleepers are dream priests who have fallen into darkness, and you have been hiding in the depths of Orlandel for hundreds of years to study taboo knowledge. In addition to being suitable for hiding, there must also be What attracts you. Plus the Augustus curse is peculiar, it clearly has the characteristics of the dream and the spiritual realm - I suspected from a long time that it all pointed to a certain god, for me, The 'suspects' are just those few."

Calling the gods "suspects" is obviously a leeway only for outsiders.

There was a hint of awe in Megall's voice: "Everything is as you judged."

Gawain waved his hand and looked at Megall with a serious expression: "That is to say, the so-called 'curse' of the Augustus family is essentially the contamination of the gods caused by the god of dreams—then the great Orlandel two hundred years ago What happened to the collapse? How did the contamination spread to the Augustus family? You used Orlandel as a stronghold before that, and all this...is it your handwriting?"

"That's not the case," Megall denied immediately, and then his tone was a little slow, as if he was arranging his thoughts while speaking, "Where should I start to tell you... In fact, all this is coincidence and The result of wrong accumulation. The reason for the collapse of Orandel was that the underground ruins were out of control, and the fragments of the dream god were suddenly activated, and this was more of an accident; on the other hand, you should know that the original Typhon royal family once happened in the collapse The disaster was 'predicted' in time before, and the residents of the whole city were evacuated in advance, miraculously avoiding tens of thousands of casualties, and the reason why they could 'predict' the collapse in advance was precisely because A warning from the Eternal Sleeper..."

"Then let's start from the beginning," Gawain tapped on the table lightly, "starting from using Orandel as a stronghold after the Church of Dreams fell into darkness, starting from the time when the Typhons established their capital in Orlandel."

"Yes," replied Megall, "first of all, the fact that the Eternal Sleepers took root underground in Orlandel and the Typhons established their capital in Orlandale, happened at about the same time, but they did not contact, just a coincidence.

"In the early days of Typhon's establishment, the Augustus family chose Orlandel, which was more fertile and suitable for fortification at the time, to build their capital, and after they had just established a foothold, the Church of Dreamland, which had barely recovered some vitality, arrived at that time. Orlandale at the camp, where we retreated, hiding in the nearby mountains and between the villages and towns that were still in chaos at the time, and maintained a low profile for a long time, living with the people of Orlandale at that time.

"After that, Orandel became a city that was taking shape, and the Church of Dreams was more restored. We reorganized into the Order of the Eternal Sleepers in the dark alleys of Orlandel, and acted locally in the form of a hidden church— — Survival and recuperation were still our main consideration back then, and in a very unexpected situation, in the process of finding a new hiding place, we found a cave leading underground in an area outside the city… …At first we thought it was a cave, but soon we discovered that it actually led to a… ancient ruins almost as large as Orlandale at the time.

"It totally shocked us at the time."

Gawain interrupted Megall's remarks: "Did you find the facilities left by the Gondor Empire? You are also a Gondor, and you should recognize the technology and architectural style of the ancient Empire."

Although he has entered the core of the city of dreams many times, he has never seen what the headquarters of the Eternal Sleeper looks like in the real world, and from some of the memory pictures of Daniel and others, he can only see that the underground palace passes through seven After a hundred years of reconstruction, it is impossible to imagine what it looked like when it was discovered by the Eternal Sleepers. At this moment, he just instinctively thought of the rebellious plan of the Gondor Empire, and suspected that what the Eternal Sleepers had found was actually another "Fortress of Disobedience" used to store samples of gods - just like the fortress in the Dark Mountains .

After all, the combination of ancient ruins + samples of gods has a really strong sense of sight.

However, Megall gave a negative answer: "I can be sure that it is not - it is definitely not something built by the Gondor Empire. First of all, it is outside the territory of the ancient empire, and it is a newly developed land by human beings. Secondly, and more importantly, the facility is full of things we don’t know: the style of construction is unprecedented, some of the walls still have unrecognized writing, some of the remains of equipment in some closed rooms, It also uses unheard of technology..."
