Scene 293 Ampersel Meeting
"The priest will leave Amperesel in three days, and now he is in the meditation room, not receiving any guests, Miss Magdal. Red robes, silver breastplates gleaming in the sun, and spears in hand, they smiled politely but showed no signs of accommodating.
The nun princess sighed softly.
She turned around.
The dome of the temple was bathed in infinite brilliance, but it seemed to reflect the last ray of light in this kingdom. In the hazy light and shadow, the bells echoed, announcing the end of an era. Inside the Lokshbe Palace, the six grand dukes and their envoys were on both sides of a round table, and began to divide up the remaining abundance of the kingdom—knives, forks and fish meat were all on the plate.
...
The humming and buzzing chatter went straight up, and the palace vault supported by the black jade beams echoed the sighs of thousands of years. Among the many different opinions, only one voice declared solemnly: "Since the founding of Aruin, the first king Eke has led the people to overcome thorns and thorns, and built this glorious paradise from the wilderness. The oath of the nobles and the people to decide the fate of the kingdom together. Today, the kingdom is once again facing division. We cannot bear the innocent lives lost in the flames of war. We gather here to make a new contract for the future of the kingdom with our fingers and swords. -"
Grand Duke Sifah raised his head after reading this oath, and the hall fell silent like winter snow; his eyes shone with a cold and wild light, "My colleagues present, as long as anyone still agrees with this ancient contract, Then please raise your hand like me to prove that the blood of Aruin nobles flows in your [body].” After finishing speaking, he slowly raised his right hand, as if holding a sharp sword in his hand pointing to the sky.
The giant beast bared its sharp teeth in the shadows.
There was a lot of noise in the venue, except for the two Cruz bishops, everyone stood up and raised their right hands; just like what their ancestors did in the wilderness - the ancient nobles interlaced their sabers Together, make a sacred oath before the Lionheart Sword——
'I swore to lead my people—'
'Lead them away from strife and slaughter, away from the arrogance and greed of the nobles of the empire; I swear that in order not to repeat this cold-blooded mistake of history, I will make the nobles of this new kingdom abide by the spirit of knights-just, strict, and upright And brave, kind and generous, I take this oath, and I will keep it with the rest of my life! '
Brando was the last to get up.
He raised his hand, but watched all this with cold eyes. These people not only lost the holy sword of the lion heart, but also the sword in their hands, so they have long forgotten the sacred oath.
The sacred contract also lost its effectiveness, the kingdom's city turned into a phantom, and the vast territory melted like ice and snow in front of him, from mountains to plains, from forests to oceans, and only one voice echoed from then on.
〖revolution.
Brando gently closed his eyelids, and the sword of the earth vibrated a short distance from him, as if feeling the turbulent mood of the master. The sword was about to break out of the box, but Brando calmed down a little - not yet. The fire is spreading from the ground, and the magma will overtake it all, but not yet.
"Two hundred and sixty years ago, my ancestor, the last king of the Sifah Dynasty, gave up the throne to His Majesty Luxon I because he lost the responsibility of the Lionheart Holy Sword. He was also the founder of the Corcova Dynasty, Eru Because of the founder of ZTE, it is undeniable that this wise king created the grand scene of Eruin that lasted for nearly a hundred years. However, two centuries later, the kingdom once again declined, and history returned to the original point—"
Duke Sifah continued: "My niece, Her Royal Highness Princess Griffin, a descendant of Emperor Luxon I, can you agree with this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was another discussion in the surrounding darkness. ¢£e¢£Novel¢£Net, www.ExiaoSHUO.COm¢Everyone knows that there is *naked power* that cannot be concealed under the high-sounding rhetoric, but it has to be said that Duke Sifah’s lines still caused quite a stir. The sympathy of few people. It is undeniable that the Corcova royal family bears an inescapable responsibility for the decline of Eruin to Sri Lanka.
All eyes were on Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess of the kingdom. Princess Griffin raised her head without changing her expression: "I don't agree with your words, Your Excellency the Duke."
There was an uproar.
Brando stared at the princess. He knew that she had a noble wish in her heart, but she had to commit herself to the mud. He wanted to see what she would say, how to support Aruin in the darkness That tenuous belief. Compared with the shining ten years after Arouin, now is undoubtedly the darkest moment before dawn.
Anleke remained expressionless and said nothing. Almost everyone fell to the side of Grand Duke Sifah. Her Royal Highness was like a solitary boat in a storm, and the Royal Party, who seemed to be at odds with her, could not even make a weak voice at this moment.
"So, the Corkova family intends to abandon everyone and go their own way?" Grand Duke Sifah's face turned cold, and his voice was as fierce as thunder.
"The royal family of Corcova will fulfill the responsibilities of the royal family, but if some people want to break the agreement of the sages, then I will never take half a step back." Griffin replied without fear.
"What did you say?"
"According to the agreement, my younger brother is the legal heir of the kingdom. No matter how eloquent you are, my uncle—you can't change this fact. As for my elder brother, the royal family of Corcova will never allow a murderer The father who kills the king ascends the throne and becomes the king, not to mention my stepmother, Her Majesty Queen, as long as I live here for a day, I will never allow her to tear up the sacred covenant with those villains and trap Aruin in an unjust place. "
As soon as Her Royal Highness said this, the venue was so quiet that a needle could be heard. Although everyone present at the meeting understood that the death of Obergo VII might be a bit strange, they never dreamed that the princess of the kingdom would be so strong that she would say these shameful things on the spot. So much so that Grand Duke Sifah took a breath of air, and his face became white.
"Nonsense!" Grand Duke Sifah scolded angrily: "His Royal Highness, please maintain your identity!"
"Self-identity?" Griffin seemed to be irritated. She clenched her silver teeth and clenched her fists: "Master Duke, you let me maintain my identity? Then let me ask you, when my father was dying, who was with me?" Is he together? Then let me ask you, when my father secretly sent me a secret letter asking me to save him, I was blocked outside the palace gate. Where are you? As a child, you can only watch your own death My father died at the hands of a treacherous villain—My lord, will you still let me maintain my identity?"
At the end of her speech, her voice was close to whimpering. Everyone saw that the strong princess was shedding tears. She trembled all over, clenched her fists, but still proudly stood her chest out, facing all her enemies proudly. At this moment, she was no longer Her Royal Highness Princess Eruin, but a daughter who was deeply indignant for her father. However, the pride of the royal family overlapped on him, which made everyone feel like Oberg VII. Right in front of them, the illusion of accusing the queen and her party of crimes.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
Most of the nobles turned their attention to Grand Duke Sifah and the priests of the temple.
Grand Duke Sifah's face was pale, as if he had been stabbed by Griffin's gaze. He took a step back and couldn't help exchanging colors with the High Priest of Meros not far away before he could hold his breath. "Your Highness, I think you may be too excited. The former king's health has always been in poor condition. There may be some misunderstanding..." He knew what his sister had done, and couldn't help but answer embarrassingly. .
Griffin bit his lower lip tightly and stared at him fiercely. ∏∈E∏∈Novel∏∈Net, www.exiaoshuo.CoM
At this time, Moros finally came out to make a rescue: "Your Highness, I understand your feelings, but we are not discussing the death of His Majesty Oberg VII in this venue. Please also pay for Aruin's thousands of thousands The common people consider that once the kingdom falls into flames of war and the lives of the people die, the victims will be your father’s people. I am afraid that the former king Eke would not have the heart to let such a thing happen. Everyone here still remember the words engraved on your swords. oath?"
Although the new chief priest had a gloomy face, his voice was unusually gentle, as if he had a demagogic power. Brando screamed loudly, thinking that he hadn't paid much attention to this old guy before, only to realize that this guy turned out to be an Aruintong, and he hit the soft underbelly of Her Highness the Princess, a high-level figure in the Temple of Fire. Sure enough, no one is eating dry food. He looked at Griffin again, wanting to see how the princess would answer.
"Once the kingdom is in flames of war" Her Royal Highness turned her head, and the tears on her cheeks were still wet. She smiled sadly: "Eruin is so poor and weak, but you still don't want to repent. The kingdom is in flames of war—the kingdom is bound to be in flames of war." , A hundred years later, there are only ruins left on this land, I don’t know, everyone, what face do you have to meet the ancient family of Aruin, and what face to see His Majesty the ancestor Eke?”
There was an uproar in the hall.
Brando almost jumped up from his seat in shock. He stared dumbfounded at this weak half-elf girl who was only seventeen years old. She stood there helpless, but her gaze seemed to penetrate history. In the thick fog, I saw the inevitable ending of that Aruin. She actually saw it? She actually saw it!
Brando always believed that Her Royal Highness chose the wrong path, and eventually walked into the abyss with the kingdom. But he didn't expect that Her Royal Highness had already seen her fate, the unchangeable destruction that led to darkness and thorns, flowed with blood, and burned in the flames of hell——
What kind of power is driving her, just supporting a hope? Or is it the responsibility of the royal family? Brando looked at the seventeen-year-old half-elf girl, and felt a little short of breath for a while.
"Your Highness, you are scaremongering." Melos replied flatly, "The Temple of Fire will never allow the kingdom it protects to be destroyed."
Griffin glanced at him calmly, "Master Officiant, tell me."
"It's time for Aruin to choose a new owner. All the nobles of the kingdom are here. Let them decide the fate of the kingdom again according to the ancient agreement." Meros replied: "I think this will also happen." It is the voice of this ancient kingdom, and we let it echo in this sacred hall once again, signing a sacred contract, glory and justice, all here."
Duke Sifach's face was bright, Grand Duke Anleke's eyelids were lowered and his face was expressionless. Most of the other nobles agreed. The admiral cast his eyes on Her Highness the Princess alone, and also pressed his statement.
For a moment, in the huge other palace, there was a one-sided situation. The King's Party set its sights on Grand Duke Anleke, but did not get the slightest response from the latter - Brando couldn't help being slightly surprised when he saw this scene; into an absolute disadvantage. He stared at Anleke coldly, and slightly loosened his hand on the hilt of the Sword of the Earth through the dimension hole.
The situation revealed what he expected, and made him suppress his killing intent once again.
Fortunately, take another look.
"your Highness?"
"I will never allow it." Griffin seemed to have anticipated such a situation, and replied coldly and firmly.
"His Royal Highness, I suggest you not to go your own way." Bishop Moros' face changed. He didn't expect that the princess would not even give him face: "Even the royal family needs nobles to rule this country. If you go your own way, you will only It caused the Corkova family to betray their relatives—I think, you don’t want to let the nobles of the kingdom kill each other?”
This is the naked threat.
But the princess couldn't find a trace of fear on her face. She replied lightly: "There is no other king on the throne. When the nobles are bleeding, Aruin will choose another new king, but there is one condition that needs to be met. I think, everyone Have you forgotten the ancient oath?"
Lion Heart Sword.
Everyone's complexion changed, and it was only then that they remembered that Duke Sifah wanted to establish another king, so he must first follow the oath of the former king Eke, "If one day, the nobles of Eruin forget their duties, then this sword Come from there, go back there, and no longer protect this country. ’ Retrieve the Lionheart Sword. This sword has been lost for more than two hundred and sixty years, and no one knows its whereabouts until now.
And this sword happened to be lost by the Sifah dynasty, which is why the last king of the Sifah dynasty gave way to the Corcova family. If this sword does not return for a day, it proves that the Sifah family is not qualified to regain the throne for a day.
Everyone was stunned for a while. The oath of the first king, Eke, was a heavy shackle that locked the hearts of the nobles of Eruin. It was the foundation of Aruin's founding. No one dared to deny it, because it would be tantamount to denying it. The existence of nobility itself. As soon as the princess said this, the hall was so quiet that a needle could be heard.
Then, everyone suddenly remembered something. Everyone present turned their heads and looked in the direction of Brando.
To be precise, it fell on Earl Delfry of Yanbao.
Brando was slightly taken aback, and he turned his head. Only then did I realize that the countess did not have the slightest bit of shock on her face, she seemed to have expected this scene long ago, her expression was calm, but her snow-white face was a little dazed - she looked at Griffin not far away, and there was some kind of complicated expression hidden in her eyes. struggling look.
"Dilferry?"
"Mr. Brando, tell me, does Lady Martha always favor people who are pure and righteous?" Miss Earl let out a sigh of relief, and suddenly asked in a subtle way.
Brando was slightly taken aback, but Earl Delfry of Yanbao had already stood up in full view. She wore the emblem of family glory on her chest - the coat of arms of a broken sword. Brando looked at the coat of arms and suddenly remembered something. A piece of rumor about the most mysterious family in the kingdom, his face changed, but the countess had already said to Princess Griffin in the distance: "The Sword Guard family hereby greets the king of Eruin, Your Highness, three A month ago... the seat of the Lionheart Sword was broken, and it's time for the kingdom to choose a new owner..."
When Del Ferry replied, her body couldn't help shaking. She was Griffin's best friend, but she knew that when she said that, she was hurting him.
"I'm sorry, Griffin, I don't know why this happened. Once the sword seat was broken, the Sword Guard family also lost the meaning of existence, Your Royal Highness..." After finishing speaking, the Countess couldn't help crying.
"It doesn't matter, Deer Ferry, the Kingdom will honor you again. The Lionheart Holy Sword will never disappoint anyone who is loyal to the Kingdom and to the subjects of the Kingdom—" Griffin smiled slightly, and she looked up. At the beginning, I happened to see Grand Duke Sifah with a face of winning, and Meros with a gloomy face. "Your Highness, the truth is already in front of us." Grand Duke Sifah said triumphantly: "The seat of the holy sword is broken, and it is meaningless for the royal family of Corkova to stand on the throne again. When the kingdom arrives, it will choose a new one." The time of the king."
"According to the sacred agreement, now is the time to return the right to choose to the nobles of Eruin." Moros also nodded.
"Really, then who do you think is Eruin's new king?" Princess Griffin asked suddenly.
"Of course—" Grand Duke Sifah said immediately, he knew well that the nobles present had already been overwhelmed by the temple, even Grand Duke Alek was no exception. The temple strongly supported the Sifah family to regain control of Aruin, and now it seems that even God's will is on his side. The shattering of the holy sword sword seat can explain all this-he is full of ambition, just waiting to say that that cannot be changed. name.
But at this moment, Grand Duke Sifah opened his mouth, as if he had seen a ghost——and found that he couldn't continue.
Because he saw a girl.
Or it should be an apprentice female knight, that female knight is standing next to Her Royal Highness, Grand Duke Sifah looks familiar to her no matter how she looks at her—by the way, this girl has the famous "fire scepter" vaguely 'Everton's shadow, could it be his descendants? But this is not the key, the key lies in the sword held high in the female knight's hand.
The sword is four feet long, and the guard is like two wings spread out. The golden lion clenches the sword, and the edge of the sword is as cold as a pool of snow silver.
The blade of the sword swayed slightly, and it was held up so brightly. The light on the sword was like the first ray of sunlight from melting snow in winter, flowing into the eyes of everyone present.
Lionheart Holy Sword——
"This is impossible!" Someone in the crowd couldn't help but screamed.
"If one day, the nobles of Eruin forget their duties, then the sword will return to where it came from, and will no longer protect this country. But as long as there are people who are loyal to the oath on the sword, it will remain Blessing everything that belongs to this glorious land—the Corcova family has never forgotten the oath of the previous king, so what about the kings present here?" Griffin looked at the sword, and was also a little fascinated , but she turned her head and asked in a cold voice.
"No." The Grand Duke Sifah was rendered incoherent by this dramatic scene: "No, this can't be true! The Holy Sword of the Lion Heart has been lost for more than two or three hundred years. Without a trace of clues, it is impossible for them to find it. Bring it out. Dean Meros, believe me, it must be a fake."
The officiant of Moros also turned his head, staring at Griffin with eagle-like sharp eyes: "Your Highness, can you prove that the Lionheart Sword in your hand is the real Eke's Lionheart Sword?"
"Master Priest, do you suspect that I am lying on this occasion?" Griffin asked coldly.
"No, I'm just maintaining the rigor necessary for a notary, Your Royal Highness."
Griffin frowned. The hall fell into silence for a while, and the Lionheart Holy Sword was like a symbol of Eruin. No one thought that the High Priest and Grand Duke Sifah would dare to deny it in front of this sword. I realized that the conflict between the two parties may have reached the point of endless death. It's just that everyone is staring at the princess and Grand Duke Sifah, wanting to see the final result of this confrontation.
Even Grand Duke Anleke slightly raised his eyelids for the first time.
And at this time, a calm and solemn voice sounded from outside the hall: "I can prove that this sword is the real Lionheart Sword—"
Everyone turned their heads in surprise, and the door of the Lokshebe Palace opened, and a figure stepped into the hall through the sunlight streaming in from outside the door. He had the light behind him, and the light behind him was like sharp swords, making everyone squint their eyes—but these sharp swords disappeared one by one, and then everyone could see who came—that It is a knight wrapped in emerald green armor.
"Ah!" Countess Del Ferry was frightened for a while, and sat down on the chair in a daze: "How is it possible..."
This is... the Knight of the Lake! Brando also stood up from his seat at once, and he suddenly felt that history was so wonderful.
