Chapter 157 The Ancient Gemini Throne

The southern border, the mountain cherry city.

Early in the morning, after Gavier finished his breakfast, he was in the study reading the recently delivered reports from various towns, when a melodious and brisk flute sounded from the glass window.

Rubbing her slightly tired forehead, the eldest lady stood up and walked to the window to see who was playing there.

In the round pavilion in the courtyard of the mansion, a young girl with blue hair and waist was sitting sideways on a stone bench, her eyes were slightly closed, and she was playing the flute.

The color of the flute is yellow, and the surface is as warm as jade. Under the flow of the breath, it makes a moving sound, which is continuous.

Looking at the blue-haired girl with her eyes closed and playing attentively, Gavier rarely calmed down. She sat next to the window sill and listened quietly. Her originally anxious and uneasy heart gradually eased.

Like the gurgling water passing through a pebble-paved stream, the clear water flows quietly along with the birdsong in the mountains.

After the song was over, there was silence all around, and after a long time, footsteps and shouting sounded again, as if the world had stopped for a few minutes just now.

When Gavier looked up again and looked at the round pavilion in the courtyard, the blue-haired girl was no longer there.

While feeling the mystery of this girl, she also returned to a good state and returned to the table. It's just that today's work seems to have become a lot lighter.

The days passed slowly, March was coming to an end, and April, when the flowers were in full bloom, gradually arrived.

On the bare branches of trees, flowers of different sizes bloom one by one, and the pale white and pink complement each other, filling the empty space and bringing people a different kind of vitality.

The seedlings that were planted before are now growing.

With the support of the girl scholar from the East, the agricultural development in the territory has been exceptionally good, making many residents feel fortunate and pray for it.

"I haven't seen such a lush growth for many years, and it has not been infected with pests and diseases. It is a miracle." The miracle in the eyes of civilians is like this. Big, step by step towards maturity.

Planting crops is not as simple as in the game. In fact, weeds, pests, barrenness, droughts and floods, etc., will cause crops to die midway. If it is a normal harvest, it is a relatively rare thing. Therefore, many places will hold harvest celebrations to congratulate this rare season.

Now walking on the city wall of Shan Yingcheng and looking down, you can see neat and verdant waves, those new tender leaves, swaying in the sun and wind, like a soft tune, which makes people relax and indulge.

Walking in the fields, stretch out your palms and stroke the tips of those grass blades, you can feel a soft touch. The slightly moist and tender tips of the leaves always remind people of the rich and beautiful scenery in the future.

Thanks to this, the original backlog of hostility and resentment in the territory has also dissipated a lot, and everyone saw each other with a lot of smiles on their faces.

"Maybe, this will be a new beginning."

Sitting on a high hillside, Gu Huasi held a light green grass root in his mouth, rested his head on both hands, leaned on the stone, and looked at the world below.

Then he closed his eyes and felt the comfort of the breeze brushing against his bronzed skin.

This originally tyrannical big man has now learned to be a little slender, and slowly realizes some happiness in life.

The good development of the Wenlani territory has gradually become known to the surrounding counties and territories, and some farmers will occasionally sneak over and begin to settle here.

For these people, although there is no bad expression on the surface, in private, Roland Hill will let people register and settle down, and let them familiarize themselves with the new rules in the territory, and slowly integrate into the group.

When the busyness of the spring gradually passed, the military training in the territory also began.

Under the blossoming trees, a quaint knight stood with a sword. Compared with the past, he now has a cloak on his shoulders.

The base color of the cloak is blue, and the sides are white. It floats from time to time in the wind, curls slightly, and makes a whirring sound.

Looking at these faces, old or young, tall or short, the girl under the mask slowly swept past them.

In fact, she is not good at giving those hot speeches. If she was asked to write the manuscript, she would probably be able to, but it would be a little embarrassing for her to read it. It's always a little embarrassing, even if it's disguised by other means.

But as the current spiritual leader of the territory, it is impossible for 'he' to express a few words.

"The harvest is now in sight, but it's not yet time to relax."

"We're still facing a lot of challenges, possibly from other snooping bad guys, and possibly from inquiries that we don't understand."

"So, are you ready to hand over these to others?" The voice was gentle and clear, less hoarse than the past.

"Never!" A high response sounded in the mouths of these new soldiers.

"Fine, then let's get started."

"A weak and deceptive kindness will only make the wicked go further."

"The most just and peaceful prosperous world must be accompanied by the most powerful force and violence. Don't indulge in dreams and delusions like the past. Only the gun and sword in your hand are so stable and reliable."

"I'm not saying that force and violence are everything, but I want to tell everyone that this is not something that needs to be rejected and rejected, if we can't be conscious, even brave,

To maintain certain things, then one day, these beautiful things will be corroded and stolen, leaving us. "

"The establishment of the building, the reason why it can't stand up is that it needs solid pillar support, and you--

It is the pillar that supports the building. "

"It is an existence that must be firmer, stronger and more reliable than ordinary people. You are the cornerstone of people's hearts, the cornerstone of turbulent currents, the dam that resists the torrent, the sword and shield facing the bow and arrow, and the sharp blade that pierces the enemy, an unrivaled existence. "

The knight raised the giant sword and swung it down, and countless air currents attacked him, passing through the ears of everyone, bringing up his clothes, like a whistling, and like a blade brushing his cheeks, making people almost unsteady to stand, instantly awake and horrified. .

"Yes, sir!"

Everyone was awe-inspiring, and then began to follow the previous teaching and began a new day of training.

After the afternoon break, the unknown knight came to the side of the training ground.

Under the shade of the trees, Miss Charlene sat at the round table and waited here early.

"It's hard work." She naturally knew that the armor was Messiah, and nodded with a smile.

"It's nothing." There is no one else around here, and there is no need to worry about eavesdropping, Roland Hill and Charlene talked.

"I didn't expect Messiah to be so powerful, and I couldn't tell that she was a young lady who didn't know much about the world." Miss Charlene was surprised by the girl's familiarity with militarized training.

"Well... Maybe I've seen a lot before, so I learned a little bit slowly." Roland Hill recalled the past training in the National Knights of Crancia. Although she was not the chief officer, she I have also seen too many excellent generals, how they lead their troops.

Those generals who came out of the training and learning of war during the process of independence of Crancia are by no means a person who can only talk on paper.

"At present, in terms of discipline, it is a little bit better. As for the extraordinary sequence, I can't be in a hurry. It's about the weapon, so I have to trouble Miss Shalin."

"Well, this is already being prepared. But it will take some time for the clearance documents to be approved." Charlene nodded.

Some time ago, Messia approached her, hoping that she would act as a middleman and purchase some muskets from the Southern Islands or Crancia to enrich the current armament.

"Our Chamber of Commerce is an old acquaintance at the customs, but even so, we can't suddenly introduce a large amount of overseas goods, and we always need some means to cover it up." Miss Charlene explained the reason.

There are about 30 large chambers of commerce such as the Roentgen Chamber of Commerce in the southern region, and they have a lot of wealth. Therefore, they have a large network of connections and can get a lot of news.

"Now the legion directly under the royal family in the southern territory has started a round of searches, and the customs area is more troublesome than before."

"But Messiah can rest assured. Bring something in, it can still be done."

Seeing her guarantee like this, Roland Hill can imagine the corruption and greed of the imperial customs, but at this time, I have to thank these greedy people. It is because of them that the progress of the empire's collapse has accelerated a little bit.

I hope a better order can be established in the future, the girl meditated in her heart, then stood up.

In this way, a relatively stable spring gradually passed.

In the past few months, the imperial investigators have been constantly investigating the southern border, looking for the trace of the Red Dragon Princess, but there has been no result, and some of the forces that had previously turned to the Baska family have now retreated back, and they have been drawn. Clear the relationship, dormant.

Central Empire, Kuquan County, Limestone Province.

The earth here is gray-brown, with mottled rocks exposed on the ground, with little soil and vegetation, and it looks barren and barren. In fact, few people live here.

Most of the water in the ground or in the creek is bitter water that is not suitable for drinking. Drinking it will make it dry and even get some kind of strange disease. Only a few places have sweet water wells that can be drunk.

Two figures in gray robes walked on the barren rock Gobi, blending in with the surrounding environment.

The sun scorched the earth directly and violently, and the air near the ground expanded with heat, distorting the light slightly.

"Is it almost there?" Sharanrot's weak, panting voice came from under the veil.

"It should be right ahead." Phoenix, who was walking in front, turned around, looked at the exhausted eldest lady, lifted her up, and the two walked slowly together.

Although Xialanrot is not doing well now, Phoenix doesn't mean to despise it. Knowing that they have been trekking in this desert for nearly two weeks, it is not easy for Xialanrot to survive until now.

What they faced was not only the harsh environment, but also the giant Pampas eagles that fell from the sky to attack from time to time. These giant eagles were a ferocious Sequence 5 monster with a wingspan of more than ten meters, like a small plane. , has broad and powerful wings, and those sharp claws can easily scratch the skull of a lion and peck at it. They are the highest predators on this Gobi.

"If only my partner was still there." Fenice bit her lower lip. She is a Phoenix Knight of Sequence 5, just like a Dragon Knight. It is necessary to cooperate with Phoenix to maximize her strength and separate her. After that, the combat effectiveness has dropped a lot.

Charanlot: "I'm sorry."

Phoenix: "No, it's actually still alive, it's just that we won't see it for a while."

As superhumans who resonate with the phoenix all the year round, they can roughly feel whether each other is alive or not.

"Maybe it's where to recuperate now. After a while, it will come back to find us." Fenise said her thoughts with certainty, and then continued to move forward with Charan Lotte.

The two walked through the rugged stone steps. The cracked stones on the ground were like irregular hexagonal stone pillars, undulating. They carefully jumped down and entered a deeper and deeper canyon. The circling Pampas giant eagle saw that the terrain was narrow, so it did not continue to chase, but changed other targets, looking for today's food.

The pendant in his hand flashed a different kind of brilliance, the cracked stone pillar gradually trembled, and in a swaying trembling, it slowly fell, revealing a hidden entrance, and the two walked in slowly.

The dim gem lights lit up on the stone wall, leading the two of them to gradually head towards a natural cave somewhere underground.

Until the end of the road, a huge stone gate stood in front of him, the gray stone wall was rough and full of red rust water, and the carved coat of arms could be vaguely seen on the stone gate.

It is not the black-bottomed red dragon that has been passed down in later generations, but the twins who face each other with their backs. One of them is laughing, the other is sad, and their backs are leaning against the gap in the middle of the stone gate, as if they were telling an ancient story.

"Is this the relic left by the ancestors of the Baska family?" Charanlot hesitated.

"It's true that the style is not the same." Compared with the famous Dragon of Evil in later generations, such coats of arms and carvings are a bit more elf-like, or more ancient and strange legends.

"Gemini..." Charan Lotte murmured the two carved figures, thinking of the origin of the royal family, the marriage blessed by the twins.

"I'll know the history of it in the future, but for now, let's try to open it first." Xia Lanrot stepped forward, scratched his hand, blood dripped out, and pressed it on the door.

Phoenix also took the pendant close to the door, and when it leaned against the door, it radiated bursts of brilliance, and then burst into a whitish light.

Under the illumination of these lights, the faint bloodstain seemed to come alive, flowing quickly on the door, then between the fingers of the two figures, and finally condensed into two blood-colored roses.

The stone door, which had been closed for hundreds of years, gradually moved, and the dusty atmosphere slowly escaped from the door, and then a resplendent hall gradually appeared in front of the two of them.

The ground is full of accumulations of extraordinary gold coins. These gold coins minted hundreds of years ago are still bright and shiny today. The brilliant red stone pillars stand and support the high dome, which is decorated with emerald vines. It seems to be an extremely rare. The green metal brings these carvings to life and has not faded for hundreds of years.

The massive amount of gold that is enough to drown a football field is reflected in the brilliance of the gemstones, and there are also several exquisite treasure chests, which are marked with swords and armor styles, telling the descendants what is preserved in them.

Finally, at the end of the hall, a pair of golden and red thrones stood on the high steps.

The throne as a whole is made of magnificent gold and rubies. The two seats are parallel to each other, and two scepters are placed on both sides of the armrest. One of them is carved with rosettes, and the other is surrounded by dragons. Exquisitely beautiful.

This throne seems to be telling latecomers that, in fact, a long, long time ago, the royal family and the Baska family were so inseparable, like twin brothers.

Or maybe they are the real twins, but one of them was separated later.
