Chapter 1631 Kama Taj Chess Game
The stupor in Danielfa's eyes disappeared, and his eyes became firm and clear.

The mystic in white robes led a group of other mystics in white robes and stood on the small square in front of the highest courtyard.This is only a resting place for the supreme mage. After the supreme mage returned to Mars, only Modu went in and listened to the holy will of the venerable.

The emperor went straight to Master Daniel. To the surprise of the imperial guards, the mystic masters did not use their magic tools or cast spells to stop them.Amon saw the robe markings on the mystic masters behind Master Daniel, and immediately understood the reason why Master Daniel was standing here-there were inconspicuous family marks embroidered on the robes of these mystic masters behind Master Daniel, as a long-standing organization. As an accessory, the mystic family has the time and energy to make their etiquette look luxurious and low-key-it is impossible for Master Modu to summon all the Kama Taj mystics, because his position is only the chief teacher, even if he is talented and Being valued by the Supreme Mage, he still does not hold the most powerful authority.Violence is a tool to control power. Karma Taj has many ambitious people in history, but the subsequent power disputes were relatively peaceful, but the bloody smell still lingers.

"According to the holy will, now you are in charge of Karma Taj's affairs. When the supreme mage is unable to perform his duties, the heir will take the position of supreme mage, king of Midgard, lord of mankind, and Karma Taj sanctuary The Lord, the Rune King..."

Master Daniel read out the layers of titles in an extremely fluent voice, and saluted the emperor with the most complicated and highest etiquette.As an organization that has passed down far beyond all human civilizations and collected characteristics from various civilizations around the world, the formal etiquette of Karma Taj is quite complicated.

The emperor saw that Stephen Strange and Sherlock Holmes were staying behind Master Daniel. As the apprentices of the mystic who failed to go to the Attilan Star Fort on the dark side of the moon to perform their missions, they were obviously deliberately killed by Master Daniel. Protected - because the emperor only took over the position of supreme mage temporarily, his own power will not be limited to the scope of the title of supreme mage, and the title of supreme mage will be handed over to someone who can replace the emperor to control the spiritual department Both Stephen Strange and Sherlock Holmes are candidates, and no matter which one of them holds the position, they must also accept the jurisdiction and integration of Victor von Doom, because the latter is complex and controls everything. The psionic department—they obviously haven't heard of all the titles of the Supreme Sorcerer, and it took more than one minute and 26 seconds of Daniel's time just to read it, and the emperor didn't have the patience to stand here for a minute and 26 seconds.After only about ten seconds, the Imperial Guards came and told all the mystics to retreat. The excuse used by the Imperial Guards was "keep a safe distance".

In any case, Master Daniel's thoughts are finally over.

"Greetings, Supreme Mage." Mage Daniel whispered, "I'm glad you didn't make this attack too bloody. The dark things are craving conflict, blood and misunderstanding, and your handling has reduced a lot of unnecessary Casualties. I mean Master Mordo, I believe he was just blinded."

"I don't care about Modu's offense, the sea of ​​ether just let him see a certain future." The emperor said, "In my opinion, he is still a usable asset."

"You don't know why he refuses to see more?" Master Daniel said, smiling, in his old casual tone. "Even I can foresee your attack and see through the darkness hidden behind the ether storm. How could Modu, who controls the cauldron of the universe, not see it?" He turned his head and looked at the courtyard with the locked gate, "The dark storm is coming Coming down to this peaceful land, you must make a choice."

"I have a lot of time to deal with Modu's problems." The emperor said calmly, "Master Hamil, Master Wu Guiyue and Casilios will take care of most of the daily affairs for me."

Master Daniel raised his head and glanced at the imperial guards standing on both sides of the emperor, and nodded noncommittally.

"I see, it's time for you to face His Holiness. If you can, please don't aim the nuclear bomb here. I don't think this matter is worth using a thermonuclear warhead to solve." He turned sideways to make way, At the same time, a golden laurel crown was summoned.This is the crown used for the official coronation after the emperor walked out of the courtyard. It was a laurel crown that the Supreme Mage spent ten years making and finishing before going to Mars.Like the Dragon Tooth Sword, this is an impenetrable weapon, a gift from the Supreme Mage to the Emperor. The difference is that he can exert the full power of this magic weapon.It's just that it's not suitable to wear this treasure now. "Perhaps you plan to meet Ms. Calamity? But let me remind you in advance that she has been in a bad state of mind recently."

"I will order the Sisterhood to take care of Lady Calamity."

Standing in front of the courtyard gate, the emperor took a rare deep breath to sort out his emotions.

That day will come.He also foresaw this scene when he learned to sort out the cacophony of voices in his head and organize the future he foresees.Every detail, every battle was replayed in his mind, and he could feel the pain of psionic lightning piercing through armor and burning his skin.He and the supreme mage had already chosen a relatively perfect ending, and now they had to carry it out no matter what, some things had to be done, and no one else could do it except him.

"You wait outside the door." He said to the guards, and then he pushed the door and walked into the courtyard.

Immediately, darkness enveloped him, and a gigantic beast as large as a planet opened its mouth, swallowing all of his psychic brilliance.

Wanda Maximoff walked with her head down, panting.

Sweat dripped from her forehead and shattered into several petals on the dust-free white marble steps, stinging her eyes.She felt that she had reached the limit of her physical strength, and the scorching pain spread from the back of her neck to her back. Her skin was hot and red, and her consciousness was blurred. Every step forward, she could feel the needle-like spiritual pressure tingling her nerves, but The idea of ​​following the emperor still keeps her on the road, even though the stairs in front of her have disappeared into the clouds, and the end point is far away.This is an unprecedented test of will. Wanda Maximoff knows that she is just a girl longing for family warmth, but standing on the wave of this era, whether as an avenger , or as a psyker, the future she chooses cannot have too much peace.

Suddenly she felt a hand holding her arm from the side.

The Guardsman's hands were wrapped in the armor, even through the clothes, he could feel the flow of the power armor's core ability and the hot metal.However, this hand is no different from ordinary people, it can even be called gentle, this hand is clean and white, with slender and strong fingers.She felt the golden psychic glow dissipate her fatigue.

"You will go to the finish line, Wanda Maximoff." Athena took her arm.This goddess of war is dressed in ancient Greek-style armor and holds an extremely sharp spear.Her shield had been given to the Emperor, so she used a short sword at her waist instead. "There you will witness the coronation of the Lord of Men."

"why me?"

"Because he chose you, you occupy a key position in his plan." With Athena's support, after another ten minutes, Wanda Maximoff finally reached the end of the ladder.Here, the mystic in white robes and the two Praetorians faced the gate of the courtyard.Athena lowered her head and said to Wanda, "He will come out, don't worry. When he comes out, you will see him differently."

Their arrival did not attract the attention of others.

Except for the Praetorian Guards and Mage Daniel, who already knew about Athena's existence, others thought that the woman in classical armor, like Wanda Maximoff, was a foreign aid recruited by the emperor.Even if they looked at the aura through the second vision, those mystics who didn't know Athena's existence could only see her strength, and they could only wonder whether the woman in front of them was also one of the inheritances left by the supreme mage to the emperor.

"Why on earth..."

"The soul of the Supreme Mage does not belong to me." Athena said, "Don't you understand that even the Supreme Mage cannot get rid of the principle of equivalent exchange, and cannot arbitrarily absorb the energy of the sea of ​​souls. You don't think you use it Psionics are free, Wanda Maximoff? Have you seen those ascetics? The only function of those ascetics is to take on the debt of the Supreme Sorcerer and bear the risk of mutation of ether energy. Except for the first Supreme Sorcerer Gomoto, the latecomer becoming the supreme mage means that the soul no longer belongs to him, and all the supreme mages are exchanging their souls for eternal life to fulfill their eternal duties."

Darkness enveloped him, only a small dim light flickered not far away.

He felt that the soles of his shoes were like rough sand and rocks, and the smell of the barren neighbor wafted in the breeze. As far as his eyes could see, there was only darkness, and only the range of dim light could barely see clearly.He walked towards the small lamp without hesitation, and as the distance got closer, two comfortable armchairs and a low table appeared under the lamp, and a vague figure sat on the opposite chair, silent He lowered his head and faced the chessboard on the low table.

The emperor pulled out his chair and sat down.

The chair was just the right size to fit his spine and figure perfectly.He was not wearing a battle armor, but only a black suit, with raven-like long hair draped over his shoulders, tied with a golden laurel wreath, and the warm yellow light made his laurel wreath sparkle.He moves a piece, then watches the opposing player respond.The chess pieces on the chess table are exquisitely carved, and the styles are completely different from those of the chess pieces in international chess. Each piece has a representative meaning.For example, a sword carved into armor and a cloak, a fortress made of stones, and a bust of an ancient Roman consul wearing a laurel wreath.

"The opening of the Slavic defense. Ancient and classic." The person facing the table easily saw through his plan, "Aren't you going to change the opening? The game has not yet been decided, and you still have many opportunities."

"This is what you taught me, Master. Only death is the end of duty."

"If you're implying my life, then that's a good joke." The Sorcerer Supreme laughed, but then the smile faded away.In this world, the Supreme Master's emotions are far richer than in the physical universe.The warm yellow light flickered for a moment, then came back on again. "Let's end this chess game as soon as possible. I can't hold on for too long. The darkness is coming. I have done my best on Mars. Now I can't help you. What I can give you is only Those are the prophecies."

"He wants to free the Supreme Mage..." Athena lowered her voice, "From now on, the Supreme Mage will only be a title, and Kama Taj will be truly independent, free from any interference from the sea of ​​souls."
