Chapter 1249 The Three Great God Kings
A group of dozens of people rode on the King's Avenue, and I also learned that this prince was the only prince of King Turin, and was deeply loved by the king. The total population of the Turin Empire was more than 5 million people, which was considered a kingdom of medium size in the era of cold weapons. The regular army had 400,000 people, and it had three God Kings, one of whom was a national teacher, and the other two were generals, who were famous in this area.
…
The speed of the Shenli Dragon Horse is much faster than the mounts of the prince and his guards. I walked slowly and chatted with the guards: "I just entered the land, I don't know the situation here. How many kingdoms like Durin are there on this continent?"
The guard raised his saber and glanced at me, looking at me like a bumpkin, and said: "You don't even know this? There are 57 kingdoms on this continent, Durin is one of them, but it is also one that cannot be underestimated. Although we are not as strong as the empires in Zhongzhou, Durin, which is located in a remote place, has 3 God Kings, which is enough to make the surrounding kingdoms dare not invade!"
I was stunned, thinking that Durin is very powerful because he has three God Kings? So I asked, "How many God Kings are there in the Earth Realm?"
The prince looked back at me and said, "There are 77 God Kings in the record, but one of them died in a duel last month. What a pity..."
I looked at the prince and couldn't help asking the question in my heart: "When I was in the Human Realm, the weakest people living there were at least at the level of scattered spirits, but in the Earth Realm, why are many people's strength even inferior to that of scattered spirits?"
In fact, what I meant was why you guys are so weak, but I didn't say it directly.
A guard heard it and shouted, "Don't be presumptuous in front of His Highness. Boy, although you are very strong, don't forget that you are now in Turin. Even the three God Kings must bow down to His Majesty. What qualifications do you have to be so arrogant here?"
I smiled apologetically: "Sorry, I really don't mean to be arrogant, I just don't understand."
At this time, it was the prince who showed the generosity of the royal family and said with a smile: "In fact, it's not embarrassing to say it. Although this continent is called the land of the Broken Silence God Realm, it is also a native continent. The entire land has more than 400 million native residents, and we are one of them. We practice martial arts and literature, and we are never willing to give up our survival status here. Even when dozens of God Kings descended from the sky and took a ruling posture, we did not give up our survival status and dignity."
So that's it. This land originally had races, no wonder it was like this.
I sheathed my sword and said, "Thank you for your advice, Your Highness!"
The prince, who was about 20 years old, was full of unyielding and stubborn temperament, just like Luo Qianlin back then. He also laughed and said, "Hero, you are welcome. In our Duling Kingdom, we have always respected the strong. Although you cannot get the honor of the God King with your strength, it is at least not too bad."
I couldn't help my curiosity and continued to ask, "What happened when the God King came to this land?"
The prince was stunned: "That is a past that I don't want to mention, and it has been sealed for tens of thousands of years."
"What do you mean?"
The prince gritted his teeth and was unwilling to continue. Instead, he glanced at the guard next to him. The guard immediately understood, clasped his fists, and said, "Sir, let me tell you."
"Yes, please."
The guard grabbed the reins, steadied the running direction, and said, "More than 10,000 years ago, there were only four empires on this continent, and they coexisted peacefully. But at that time, the first One God King descended, followed by the second and third. They were warlike and bloodthirsty. They killed all the best practitioners on the continent and devoured their power to improve themselves. Soon, there were more than 20 God Kings on the continent. They launched wars and conquered each other. The whole continent fell into war. The four empires were also torn apart in the war, and eventually split into more than 30 empires. To this day, the continent has become 57 empires. Among them, 41 empires are directly ruled by God Kings. God Kings control almost everything here! "
Speaking of this, the guard couldn't help but feel a little sad, and trembled: "No matter how the indigenous residents resisted, they were always out of power and could only become subjects ruled by the God Kings. "
I couldn't help taking a deep breath. It turned out that there was such a past. The God King was indeed not the kind of existence that I had imagined to bless the people. On the contrary, the God King was a group of power controllers and a group of conquerors. God, that's all.
Thinking of this, a gleam of light flashed in my eyes, and I smiled and said, "What about the Turin Empire? What about our three God Kings now?"
"This..." The guards dared not speak.
The prince looked at me, suddenly stopped his horse, and said, "Hero, what is your name? Are you really willing to serve the Turin Empire?"
I also looked at him very seriously and said, "My name is 'Li Xiaoyao', I come from what you call the mortal world here, and I am the commander of the Tianling Empire's Royal Guards. The only purpose of coming here is to find a suitable godhead for ascension. Strictly speaking, I am also a devourer, but I will never attack the weak, and I will serve the Turin Empire for one day in the Earth Realm."
The prince was a little excited: "Warriors from foreign star fields? Is the prophecy true?"
"What prophecy?"
"Thousands of years ago, a highly respected prophet once predicted that there would be a warrior from the outer space to relieve the Turin Empire and bring light to the Turin Empire!"
"oh?"
I couldn't help but chuckle to myself. Is this part of the mission?
A fire-armored guard on the side said with a sneer, "Your Highness, this Li Xiaoyao looks like a powerful martial artist. He doesn't have any fluctuations in his divine power. Not to mention a god king, our Turin Empire I’m afraid that every one of the twelve guards in front of the palace can defeat him in three rounds, so he still wants to compete with the God King?”
In fact, the prince probably also had such concerns, but he still said: "You must not underestimate Li Xiaoyao. Everything will be clear when he returns to the imperial capital."
I said: "What is the situation of the three god-kings of the Turin Empire?"
The prince hesitated to speak, as if he had something to hide.
The guard on the side said bluntly: "The God King Dong Ming came to the Turin Empire 30 years ago, gained the trust of the previous emperors, became the national advisor, and controlled the court. By the time he became the king of this generation, Dong Ming had almost controlled the entire empire. In the Turin Empire, he appointed his younger brother Xue Sha as the general to control the country's troops. These three god-kings gradually seized the whole of Turin from the royal family, and last month they even forcibly married the eldest princess, His Highness’s sister.”
"say no more!"
The prince shouted angrily and said, "Stop talking..."
I finally understood everything. Did I originally think that the three god kings would work for these ordinary people? Now it seems that this king is just a puppet. The real masters of the Turin Empire are the three god kings. That's fine, I won't have any worries when I take action.
The guard was already blushing from suppressing the pain. He held up the hilt of his sword and said, "Your Highness, as a soldier, we have to watch Your Highness and His Majesty suffer such humiliation. This is a trample on our dignity. As long as His Highness gives an order, Next, I am willing to lead 3,000 of my men to the Imperial Prefecture and chop off Dong Ming’s dog’s head to comfort the soldiers of the three armies who died in vain!”
The prince angrily reprimanded: "Li Xu, don't you understand? You are no match for the God King at all. No matter what we do, we will only die. Instead of doing this, it is better to continue waiting for a suitable time!"
Li Xu was speechless.
I smiled slightly and said leisurely: "Your Highness, don't worry. Now that I have come to Turin City, I will not leave empty-handed. I will challenge these god kings, regardless of success or failure, I will challenge them."
"Are you really willing to challenge? But..." the prince gritted his teeth: "I don't want you to die in vain, why not...you serve as the captain of the guard by my side first, and slowly wait for the opportunity?"
"No need, I'm very confident in myself."
Li Xu said on the side: "Since Li Xiaoyao is so determined to challenge the God King, it's better to do this... Your Highness, tomorrow is the selection day in the army. The general and God King Xue Sha will personally review the final winner, so we will take this opportunity. , let Li Xiaoyao participate in a contest between military generals. As long as he wins in the end, he can have a showdown with Xue Sha. Xue Sha once said that as long as anyone can defeat him in a contest in front of the army, he is willing to hand over the empire. Give him the military power of the 400,000-strong army!”
"Is this...really okay?" The prince was still hesitant.
I chuckled: "This is a good opportunity, but I don't seem to be a general in Turin now. Can I be qualified for this?"
The prince smiled: "This is a small matter. I have my father's military talisman. After returning to the imperial capital, I will naturally promote you to a partial general. Just go to the school field with me tomorrow and participate in some military competitions. It's just... Xue Sha was cruel, and during his more than ten years in power, he had killed hundreds of people in competitions in front of the palace, and almost all the imperial warriors with extraordinary cultivation died in his hands. "
"It doesn't matter. I'm not afraid of death. You have some confidence in me."
My tone was very relaxed, and it seemed that the prince was also affected by it, so he smiled and said: "Well, I wish you good luck, Li Xiaoyao!"
…
At sunset, we arrived at the imperial capital, Turin.
Turin City is much inferior to Tianling City. Not only is the city not strong enough, but the total area is also much different. It’s no wonder that the total population of the Turin Empire is only 5 million, while Tianling City, excluding the players, The total population of NPCs is at least nearly 100 million, otherwise it would not be possible to recruit an army of 2 million people.
In the evening, he stayed in the prince's palace, politely declined the kindness of several maids, and waited for the competition in front of the palace the next day.
