Chapter 312 Star Spirit
Chapter 312 Star Spirit
Choosing Christine as the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces may seem outrageous, but it is actually uncontroversial.
Vichy did have experience in commanding nearly 100,000 men in battle, but it was far inferior to Christine.
Christine is a senior military talent trained by the Court of Light. She has commanded many large-scale battles, including the Wend Empire Civil War and the Battle of Helenburg. She has excellent military qualities and rich combat experience, and is a famous general on the continent of Rodinia.
Compared with her, Vichy has no advantages except for his older age.
And she also has an incomparable advantage, her transcendent status and neutral position.
No matter which country chooses a commander from the Sussex Empire or the Golden Kite Kingdom, the other country will have doubts. Christine is a high-level temple of the Divine Court and does not belong to any country.
Vichy sighed and didn't argue any further.
We are all respectable people, and there is no point in insisting on this occasion.
Once the consensus problem is solved, the next things will be much easier.
Within the framework specified by Roland, ministers spoke one after another and put forward constructive suggestions.
They may not like Roland, but they can't refuse to show their abilities in front of Alina.
All in all, it was a winning meeting.
This meeting pointed out the direction for the future development of Jinyuan Kingdom and illuminated its future.
After the meeting, except for a few people with ulterior motives, most people were thinking about how to find their own place on the huge ship that was about to set sail.
They also want to progress.
When everyone dispersed, it was already very late.
This long meeting lasted from morning to night, and even the extraordinary people found it a bit overwhelming.
Seeing Roland sitting on the sofa in a daze with a slightly tired look on his face, Alina sat down opposite him and whispered softly. One of her words almost made Roland jump up.
"I didn't expect that even the Saint of the Court of Light is your secret lover."
"What are you talking about?"
Roland felt powerless to complain, glared at her unhappily, and retorted in a muffled voice: "If the rumors are to be believed, you should be my lover now."
"If you can't stand the loneliness while you're in Jinyuan and need someone to warm your bed, I can be that person." Alina smiled like a fox.
Roland refused without hesitation.
Alina is different from ordinary women. She is now the ruler of the Golden Kite Kingdom.
Sylph could allow Roland to find a few maids to satisfy his physical needs while he was away, but not Alina.
Alina is not the kind of person who can just take advantage of everything and walk away.
Be responsible if you eat it.
Roland stared at Alina and said righteously, "We are friends. I am here to help. I don't want to hear such words that are not conducive to unity in the future."
Alina quickly stood up and apologized to Roland.
Some jokes are okay, but some jokes are so extreme that even the best of friends shouldn't make them.
After discussing some more details, seeing that it was getting late, Alina personally sent Roland back to the mansion, and then dragged her tired body back to the Palace of Cite.
To avoid suspicion, Roland lived in Count Leon's mansion three kilometers away from her.
Standing at the highest window of the Palais de la Cité, one can just see the lights of the Count of Leon's palace.
Seeing that the light in Roland's window was still on, Alina knew that he was still busy.
He was not so diligent even in his own country.
Alina had been Roland's intelligence chief for a long time and knew Roland's situation very well.
She knew very well that Roland liked to pass tasks to his subordinates.
If he can get rid of it, he will never do it himself.
However, tonight he was staying up late to work overtime.
Seeing such diligence, how could Alina not be moved to tears?
She didn't pick up the telescope to peek, because the strong don't like to be spied on.
Roland is a strong man and her best friend, so she certainly doesn't have no sense of boundaries.
While feeling touched, Alina was a little curious. What was Roland busy with so late at night?
Of course, she could not imagine that Roland was browsing the books in the Earl's Palace.
The Count of Leon is an ancient title. It was taken back by the state decades ago because of the extinction of the heir, and the territory and mansion also became state-owned assets.
This time, it was redistributed in order to win over Roland.
The Earldom of Leon is not very large, and its area is even smaller than that of Roland's Earldom of Suwig, but the Port of Leon is the third-ranked seaport in the Kingdom of Golden Kite. It has developed trade, abundant resources, and a prosperous people. It is a good place coveted by many people.
The County of Leon is worth as much as a medium-sized province.
Alina was never stingy with her friends. To show her sincerity, she gave Roland the collection of the Earl's Palace and more than 7,000 precious books.
Also sent over were a number of artworks from the royal collection.
Unfortunately, Alina was flirting with the blind man this time and found the wrong person.
It cannot be said that Roland had no interest in those works of art and jewelry, but at least he was not very interested.
What really caught his eye were the seven thousand books.
Especially the more than 300 out-of-print books.
This is what Roland wants most.
Roland was in a good mood at the moment, and he casually opened a notebook to pass the long night.
"Romance Stories of the Golden Iris Dynasty".
Roland's eyes lit up as soon as he opened the book and took a few glances at it.
My mom got an unexpected gain?
This book can be considered an alternative unofficial history. It may not be history, but the content is quite wild.
"Why didn't the ancestors of the Buwanaba family hide their close relationship with the Iris Royal Family?"
Oh my god, isn't this too wild?
According to this book of romantic anecdotes, the Buwanaba family goes back many centuries and are descendants of a family much older than commonly believed.
It is said that they have the blood of the stars, so it is easier for them to understand astrology.
Although the few surviving documents from the previous eras only record the Protoss in a simple way, it can be judged that they are a powerful race and are very good at absorbing the power of the stars.
Why did such a powerful race disappear?
It’s obvious that this is God’s punishment.
If this unofficial historical record is true, Alina's identity is extraordinary.
Descendant of the Protoss, astrologer, race and profession are a perfect match.
Thinking of Alina's miraculous progress in leveling up for three consecutive years after she decided to become an astrologer, Roland had more trust in this unofficial history.
Just as he was holding the book and reading it carefully, some yellowed pages suddenly gave off an unpleasant smell and fireworks billowed up.
Roland picked up the cup beside him without hesitation and poured the tea into it.
Although there will definitely be losses, preserving some content will be a victory.
The moment the tea touched the yellowed pages, a popping sound was heard. By the time Roland took off his outer robe and wrapped the book of unofficial history to save it, it was too late.
The book was not saved, and a robe was not even put on it. A normal person would be a little frustrated if not annoyed. However, Roland was not a serious person, and his eyes lit up.
The self-destruct program will only be triggered if you see something you shouldn’t see.
It seems that the Protoss really exist, and this unofficial history may also touch upon the truth. Roland did not cry at all for the burning of an unofficial history. He immediately went to the library and quickly found several other books related to the Protoss.
Some introduce the basic situation of the Star Spirits, and some describe the customs and folkways when the Star Spirits were still around.
The records in these books may seem exaggerated, and in fact they are.
Normally Roland wouldn't believe something so wild, but the endings of all these books are the same, spontaneous combustion that cannot be extinguished.
He couldn't help but believe it.
After collecting all the information about the Protoss, Roland could basically confirm that Alina was a descendant of the Protoss, but her memory had not yet awakened.
If she could awaken the inherited memories of the Star Spirits in her body, she might really have a chance to master the art of prophecy.
All in all a good thing.
Roland was not discouraged by the self-destruction of the Protoss-related information. He took out a blank wordless book and injected magic power into it. The contents of his memory automatically emerged and grew wildly on the blank wordless book at a speed that could not be captured by the naked eye.
This is also the characteristic of his extraordinary professional successor.
He possesses an extraordinary memory and can visualize his thoughts through memory projection and transform them into book content.
Simply put, Roland did not copy books or write books, but thought about books.
I write books about whatever comes to my mind.
When the inheritor writes a book, there is nothing he cannot write, as long as he cannot think of it.
Roland quickly made complete copies of the books that had just been burned, and then took the books to find Alina.
Although it was late at night, he believed that Alina was not asleep.
Even if you are asleep, you have to get up, this is very important.
Roland took a carriage to the Palais de Cité and was stopped by guards at the gate of the old palace.
He frowned slightly, then quickly relaxed.
These soldiers probably didn't do it on purpose. After all, he just took office today, so it's normal that the frontline soldiers don't know him, so...
Normal shit!
Although he only took office today, he is the Prime Minister!
The Secretary of State will definitely pass the appointment information to the relevant departments as soon as possible, and attach Roland's portrait for identification.
If a prime minister is turned away everywhere he goes, would he still want to do this job?
Roland looked with interest at the soldier who was asking him for a pass, and pointed to the family emblem engraved on the carriage at any time.
"This is Miss Alina's exclusive carriage. Is this enough to prove my identity? Please inform the Liberator and tell him that Roland wants to see you."
Roland still had a token in his hand, which allowed him to enter the palace directly, but he did not want to use such a valuable thing as a pass for the time being.
This token was the boat ticket that Alina, who was then an overseas student at the Academy of Fine Arts, gave to Roland.
This thing has never been used, and now it has become a secret between Roland and Alina.
Although he didn't want to take it out, he still showed the boat ticket in order to find Alina as soon as possible.
This makeshift ticket was well made, which was enough to prove that Roland was of high status. Moreover, he only asked the soldier to report and did not ask to enter directly.
Normally, they would at least report it, but today the soldiers guarding the palace gate seemed to have taken some strange medicine. They neither let him pass nor reported it, and even refused with a firm attitude.
Seeing the soldier's performance, Roland secretly wondered in his heart, how could such a person be chosen to guard the gate of the old palace?
As a watchdog, it is very important to have a tactful and versatile style.
So there is probably something wrong with this palace gate guard.
Roland was too lazy to waste time talking to these people. Since they were not allowed in at midnight, he would look for Alina tomorrow.
He must remind Alina that ministers can postpone replacement, but such incompetent watchdogs must be dismissed immediately.
Whether he accepted benefits from others or had poor business skills, he was no longer qualified to continue guarding the Xidai Palace.
Just as Roland turned around and prepared to leave, hurried footsteps were heard.
The sturdy captain of the old palace garrison ran over.
He was panting and his good leg was shaking.
He was pulled out of a woman's bed. He was addicted to alcohol and sex and his body seemed to be hollowed out. Suddenly he heard a noise outside and rushed out to see what was going on. The person he saw was Roland!
He was so frightened that he almost wanted to jump into the underworld.
He was well aware of Roland's reputation, and it would be strange if he didn't show weakness.
The captain quickly stopped in front of Roland's carriage and explained to him respectfully.
Seeing that the captain was so knowledgeable and tactful, Roland did not embarrass him. After reporting, he walked towards the emperor's bedroom.
When he arrived at the emperor's bedroom, Roland found the girl who had not slept all night and was in a daze in the dark night.
Alina looked at Roland calmly, somewhat curiously.
"Roland, what's the matter that's worthy of you coming to me in the middle of the night and even getting into a conflict with two guards?"
"You can take a look at these books before we talk, even just flipping through them is fine."
The book recording the Star Spirits did not spontaneously combust. Alina flipped it open at random and the more she read, the more she felt something was wrong.
These introductions about the Protoss don’t seem like stories, but rather like real facts.
Alina finished reading the last book in silence and looked up at Roland.
"You think I'm a descendant of the Star Spirit?"
"It's very likely." Roland took over the conversation.
"Then let the facts speak for themselves. The Star Spirits have a star mark hidden on their chests. As long as we concentrate, the mark will emerge."
Alina didn't finish her words, but the meaning was very clear. She didn't have the mark of the stars, so she certainly couldn't be a descendant of the stars.
She was disgusted by this kind of behavior of randomly claiming ancestors.
In order to reassure herself and Roland, she decided to get tested.
She looked down at her voluptuous figure, closed her eyes, and began to concentrate.
She tried to suppress her distracting thoughts, focusing her attention on the window, feeling the warmth coming from her chest.
Sure enough, there was no response.
The verification process is almost the same, and there is no mark.
Alina opened her eyes, looked down at her chest with a smile on her face, and was completely stunned.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible, I am a human, not a star spirit!"
She stood up angrily and raged, saying that nothing was wrong.
After her impotent rage, Alina gradually calmed down. She sat there blankly without saying a word. After a long time, she smiled at herself.
It is a joke that the ruler of a country is not a human but a Protoss.
Alina looked at Roland with some frustration and asked softly, "If I were a star spirit, would you still treat me the same way as before?"
"No." Roland said calmly.
"Is that so?" Although she guessed the answer, Alina still felt a little uncomfortable when it really appeared.
"Since you are a Protoss who dares not reveal your identity, you must need friends. I will share this secret with you, and our friendship will become even stronger forever."
Alina was silent for a long time, then slowly said, "Thank you, Roland. From now on, I will change my last name to Bonaparte. I will raise the banner and fight with you to the end."
