A group of leaders also began to speak.
"Agree quickly, Boudica!"
"Thank you, Lord Paulinus!"
Paulinus smiled, ignored the mob, and looked at Boudica: "So, Queen of Issene, what do you think?"
All eyes on her.
Fario's eyes were burning and his expression was complicated.
"Queen..." Boudica repeated the word in Celtic, bowing her head.
At this moment, the word is heavier than ever.
I have to admit that Boudica was a little shaken, especially when the words came from the most trusted elder, which made her feel like her father was whispering in her ear.
Forget it, let it be like this, give up, it's okay, no one will blame you...
Just as she bowed her head in confusion.
The door of the chamber was slammed open, and two young Roman soldiers rushed in.
"Who let you in!" Paulinus exclaimed.
"Someone... came to us... said, said a body was found!" gasped the soldier.
Before Paulinus could speak, another soldier said: "They sent the body of that man, we checked, and it is indeed the body of the Celtic god, Neos!"
The whole place was silent!
Fario bounced straight up, and the chair was turned over by the calf, with a loud noise.

Chapter 32 Chapter 32 Forbearance and Awakening
In Celtic society, the social status of Druids was so high that it surprised the Romans who had to go to the temple for divination.
It is hard for them to imagine that in Celtic society, druids have even more rights than kings.So much so that the priests and priests of the Druids would also participate in the political affairs among the various tribes as staff officers.
Fario is no stranger to the tribal leaders here. It can even be said that Fario will be there to bless almost every leader's coming-of-age ceremony and wedding.
And this is also the reason why the leaders present were shaken, and it also confirmed what the Roman soldier said.
"God?" Boudica asked with his head sideways, his expression full of surprise and disbelief.
Fario stood there, bowed his head in silence, his clenched fists trembling slightly, showing that his heart was not at peace at the moment.
"The legendary Green Prophet!"
Paulinus was the first to react, stood up and shouted: "The gods in charge of rocks, earth and forests!
His body is formed from the roots and branches of ancient oak trees, and his wisdom is stored in Stonehenge. He has powerful magic power and can talk to all beasts and trees. "
After a few seconds of silence, the people below exploded instantly!
The leaders were not calm anymore, so frightened that they spoke their mother tongue, all of them were startled, and discussed enthusiastically with their companions.
"Green Prophet? Is what he said true!" Boudica asked while grabbing Fario's clothes.
If a Celtic god had died at the hands of the Romans, all Celtic rebellions would collapse as soon as the news got out.
Celts all over the world would then consider the legitimacy of Roman rule unrivaled.
Fario raised his head blankly: "Excuse me, can I see Lord Nios's body?"
Boudica froze.
His tone and expression... so it's true, a god really descended into the world?
"Of course!" Paulinus waved his hand.
The door of the meeting hall was opened, and the slaves stepped forward to clear the dining table and moved away. The leaders grabbed the fruit and venison with both hands, and retreated tremblingly, not daring to say more.
Boudica stood up and walked silently behind Fario, watching two beggars in ragged clothes pushing a small cart in, accompanied by several heavily armed soldiers.
After stopping in the middle of the hall, the soldiers dispersed.
Paulinus stepped forward with his hands behind his back, and the audience was dead silent.
The beggar moved timidly, trying not to touch him.
"Then, let us see the true face of Lord God." Paulinus sneered, and lifted the cloth on the cart.
The leaders met each other's eyes and quickly surrounded them.
Fario shuddered slightly: "My God!"
Boudica glanced at the old man, then at the cart.
Lying in the car was a man with a fair complexion and a serene face. He was wearing a white robe that had never been seen before, and his long hair was hanging like a waterfall.
It doesn't look like a god at all.
But Fario's various expressions showed the truth.
Paulinus smiled and turned to look at the old man: "Tell me, Fario, is this your god?"
Fario bit his lip and turned pale.
Therefore, whether to admit the identity of Nios and directly hit the morale of the rebels; or to deny his belief and deceive everyone that he is just a false god.
So, Lord Neos, what on earth are you trying to do!
"Fario, I'm asking you something!" Paulinus walked towards the old man, squinted his eyes, his smile gradually disappeared, and he was not angry.
The old man lowered his head, remained silent for a moment, and finally sighed: "This is indeed Lord Neos, the god I summoned from Stonehenge with the Holy Grail."
For a moment, Boudica felt the world crumbling.
All the Celtics present looked at each other in blank dismay, their brains seemed to freeze.
"And this Master Nios once taught me..."
Fario whispered: "In another world, there is such a nation, when faced with the torrential flood of ancient times, they will lead their compatriots to dig mountains and rocks to dredge the river;
When the sky burns ten suns, they will let the warriors, with bows and arrows, shoot down the extra suns,
If a mountain blocks the way, they remove the mountain;
If there is a sea to drown your home, fill it up..."
Paulinus still had a sarcastic smile on his face. He stepped forward and patted the old man's shoulder: "Don't worry, there are still enough gods in Rome for you to worship."
Fario shook his head and smiled, watching the man in the center look alive.
"Perhaps this is what Master Neos meant. He hoped that we could go our own way..."
He looked at it, looked at it again, burst into tears immediately, and let out a long sigh: "There has never been a savior, and there has never been a god or a heavenly emperor. Only we can walk our way.
It will never be the gods who save us, but ourselves! "
"...And this is the path I choose!"
Speaking of this, the old man's voice was full of burning anger.
Boudica was shocked.
An ominous premonition flashed from Paulinus' mind.
Before everyone could react, Fario had already pulled out a table knife from his large sleeve robe, and rushed towards the Governor of Britannia Province.
The audience exclaimed.
But Boudica heard the old man's last whisper in his ear.
"Master Neos must be trusted..."
......
The so-called assassin, everything is in front, whether it is forbearance or hiding, whether it is false, or surrender, it is only for the final fatal blow.
Fario felt that this life was useless, and inherited the position of the high priest, watching the land here being conquered and the people here being enslaved, but doing nothing.
Even when the rebel camp was finally established on Mona Island, it was originally intended to accommodate a few wounded soldiers who had nowhere to go.
Until the appearance of Master Neos, he understood his mission.
That is to say, for the continuation and inheritance of this nation, and for the descendants of the Celts to have a healthy residence, even if they sacrifice their lives, they will not hesitate.
Just a pity...
He was still not calm enough to implicate Boudica and the others. He originally planned to assassinate Boudica after he could be safely sent out of the city.
Fario squatted beside Paulinus's body, and couldn't help laughing at himself.
Roman soldiers have drilled out from all sides, surrounded him and everyone.
Boudica drew his sword and stood in front of the old man, grinning like a lioness protecting its food.
The leaders also reluctantly pulled out their weapons and made weak resistance.
Now it is completely impossible to negotiate peace.
But something weird happened.
Facing the slain governor and general, the soldiers were unexpectedly calm.
They simply surrounded them with weapons in hand, neither killing them on the spot nor tying them up angrily.
wrong!
Something is wrong!
Fario suddenly realized that something was wrong.
He stood up from Paulinus's body, looked around, and scanned the expressions of everyone present.
Boudica also frowned slightly, a bad feeling flashed in his heart.
Finally, the figure of a certain person became clearer in Fario's eyes.
