Scene 50 The Mountain and the Temple
In the Prime Material Realm, at the same moment as Rushta, only a few seconds had passed. In the ruins of the neighborhood near December Square, Hipamilla stood there in disbelief for a moment, then turned around and wanted to leave. It was at this time that the Mountain and River Intention in her hand suddenly vibrated with a buzz, and then a second time. Hipamilla was slightly startled, holding up the cross war hammer in her hand with both hands, and saw this sacred piece. The object emits a soft white light, flies up from her hand, and floats in mid-air.
Palazzo San Conti, Garden of White Roses.
"Huh?" Medisa suddenly stopped and looked around with a surprised expression. She frowned, showing a trace of uneasiness.
"What's wrong?" Charles noticed the latter's strangeness and asked.
"No, Lord Lord..." Medissa looked at the empty slots in her card library that lacked stags and fairies, and felt empty in her heart: Why hasn't Lord Lord come back yet? Why didn't he speak just now?
The White Rose Garden is currently a scene of chaos and war.
The old prime minister Niedwin and the Great Holy See Valla have opened the teleportation circle that originally belonged to the Cruz royal family-actually a small Flame Gate-but this move has only aroused people's fear; the news spread like wildfire As they walked, carriages came and went outside the palace gate, and some even drove directly into the White Rose Garden. No one cared about the majesty of the royal family at all, and they looked like the end of the world was coming.
The number of people transferred each time is limited, and the nobles lined up according to their rank. The first ones to be transferred were the nobles rescued by Brando in Mosaic Collar, East Metz and other places, and then the Cruz royal family, whose number was already small. Members of the Niedwin family and their immediate family, part of the clergy of the Temple. Faina wanted to stay and wait for Brando to come back, but was persuaded to leave by Metisha.
The only ones left in Brando's entourage were Metissa, Charles, and Qian. But even they must leave in the next few batches of transmissions, because Rushta has become extremely unsafe. People stared uneasily at the golden threads falling to the ground outside the floor-to-ceiling arched windows. It seemed like a golden rain falling under the night, but the earth shook and made a dying roar.
"Where's Miss Magdalen? Hasn't the envoy from the Principality of Antobro arrived yet?" Someone in the crowd shouted anxiously. Repeat over and over again.
Officials dressed like foreign ministers were running among the crowd, confirming over and over again the envoys from other countries who were still in the imperial capital. Although Rushta might be doomed, the empire would not fall because of this. If they gathered here If the envoys of various countries suffer due to negligence, then the prestige of the empire may fall apart because of this.
But time is getting tighter, and the envoys from Antuobuluo and the Principality of Huidun have been missing. The latter is okay, but the former also includes the nun Princess Magdal. She leaves no room for error. Several clergy members affiliated with the temple had actually hurried out of San Cantibe Palace, got on the carriage outside the palace gate, and drove towards the neighborhood where the Principality of Antobra was staying.
A tall silhouette stood in the darkness by an arched window of the palace that was splendid in the daytime, watching this scene quietly against the long curtain that hung from the top of the window lattice to the ground.
She was the only direct member of the Nidwin family who did not leave. To be precise, she was the only one who ran out during the chaos and did not participate in the teleportation. Delphine didn't know why she did this, she was a calm person. Or they think that they should be calm and rational, and should not act without thinking. Do something impulsive.
But she couldn't find a reason for her current behavior, and there seemed to be thousands of clues in her heart. Sometimes she told herself that she just wanted to calm down temporarily. Anyway, as the granddaughter of Prime Minister Niedwen and a member of the Niedwen family, she could do it at any time. You can leave; but sometimes she tells herself. She just wanted to see if that person could come back, even if she had to be buried with him, dying here together with that person would be enough for her to get what she wanted.
But what frightens this prime minister’s daughter is that,
She heard a voice in her heart telling her: That's not the case. it's not true.
More than once, the scene of Brando standing proudly in front of the entire empire in the White Rose Garden emerged in her mind - completely shattering all her pursuits and values, although she knew that Brando was not targeting her. , but she had the feeling of being stripped naked and standing in front of everyone, as pitiful as a clown.
Delphine thought about all this, but his heart was throbbing.
"Why is this happening?"
"Did I make a mistake?"
She said nothing, and her face was so cold that it deterred several young nobles who wanted to approach her to chat with her.
There were fewer and fewer people in the palace. Groups of people passed by her, and groups of people left one after another. Until a royal housekeeper came up to remind her and told her that she had to leave, but Delphine was confused. It's the same as if you haven't heard it.
The butler wanted to say something more, but suddenly, a "buzz" sound came from behind, and the crowd roared. The two subconsciously turned around, just in time to see the crowd dispersed in the banquet hall of White Rose Garden. , revealing the Countess Wallachia in the middle.
Qian was looking at the Azure Spear in her hand in surprise. She saw the sky of the Holy Spear vibrating slightly, glowing all over, and it broke away from her hand and flew out, gradually floating in the air.
"Ovina, what's going on?" she asked in surprise.
The spear spirit of the holy spear had already appeared. She was floating next to the mountain girl, looking up at the sky in mid-air, her emerald green eyes full of shock.
"The temple has reappeared, Akane."
"What?"
"Chongshan Temple has reappeared, and the King of Earth has been born..."
"...Does it have something to do with the lord?" Qian thought for a moment and asked with some concern.
Oweina glanced at her and couldn't help but sigh. This silly girl was completely trapped. To be honest, as a servant of the Azure Knight, she preferred a master with more autonomy, but there were certain qualities in Akane's body. , but it also really moved her.
After all, the two people are different. If the Azure Knight is a pioneer, then Akane can be regarded as a qualified successor at most, but not every era needs the Azure Knight. The innocent girl now is obviously this The times are most suitable for the owner of Azure Spear.
She shook her head and nodded: "I don't know, but I think it might have something to do with it. Grab the holy spear quickly. If you can't get the approval of the sky at this time, it will return to the place where it was born - "
"But...what should I do?"
"Grab this gun, you are the azure knight. But don't restrain its will. The will of the earth will eventually surrender to the king. Avoid the crowd. It will open a door to the mountain where the storm ceases. Don’t infect others.”
Akane nodded, flew up into the sky and did as she was told. Everyone in the hall was looking at the newly named countess. When she grabbed the handle of the gun in the sky, she obviously felt a slight shock in her hand.
"This is……"
…
The southern border of the empire, the Andzlova region.
Very few people can be seen in the plateau and lowland areas, and the restraint of order has almost been lost from Port Roen to Vargas. Ever since the coalition forces of Jorgendigan and Toquining Lions were defeated on the north side of the Evergreen Corridor a month ago After that, the defeated troops returned from the original route and fled into some areas southeast of the Southern Inland Sea, causing the public security here to extremely deteriorate.
The aboriginal people from Jorgendigon—some cavemen, lizards, and bugbears—were entrenched in the countryside and started their old profession in the underground world—robbers. A few underground lords occupied towns and ruins. But just like how they rule in the underground world, they are indifferent to the wild. Except that the area occupied by Medusa still has some characteristics of civilization and order, most places in Andzlova have returned to the wilderness. middle.
It took humans and elves hundreds of years to build these places in the year of the return of glory, but the war completely destroyed everything in less than two months.
A fleet was sailing slowly above the clouds.
Like shadows on suspended clouds, the fleet's sails were densely packed and shaped like fine fish scales, sparkling in the night sky. The 'residents' in the Andzlova area hid in the jungles and ruins to watch this spectacle.
Then most of them shrank back cautiously.
They know that this is the human floating fleet.
A month ago, this fleet would have been immediately attacked by hordes of dragon beasts, but at this time, all the glory was long gone - not to mention that the White Army, which was recruited by the eldest son of the emperor, might pass through Chang'an at any time. As the Green Corridor goes south, even the Red Legion in the Four Realms to the east may invade from the east at any time - no one knows how long they can stay on this land.
The fleet passed over the Andzlova area and was immediately attacked by falling meteorites. A golden thread passed through the fleet, causing two or three warships to catch fire.
The meteorite eventually struck Bear Lake, erasing the lake from the Empire's map and vaporizing thousands of nearby caveman bandits.
However, the fleet was also affected by this and had to descend from the clouds one by one and land in the nearby hills.
The three-masted floating battleship 'Everton' landed in a small valley.
The group immediately disembarked from the boat, passed through the nearby woods, and occupied a high point on the outskirts of the valley. The knights escorted a young man and a snake-haired woman out of the forest and looked at the nearby hills.
Battleships were descending one after another in the night, densely packed, like clouds hanging from mid-air.
Haruze looked at the alluvial plain in the distance. He and his teacher once walked this road to avoid the pursuit of Jogendigang's army and headed for Loen Port. At the end of the field of vision was Vargas, and in retrospect it still looked like Same as yesterday.
On the dark horizon, there were a few faint rays of light scattered around. Apart from that, the whole land seemed to be in a deep sleep. His Royal Highness the little prince knew that they might be several tribes of lizardmen, and the lights of the empire had long been extinguished.
He couldn't help but feel a little sad. He still remembered that when he came here, the night here was still very bright, and the plain was full of town lights.
