Shaman from Afar

"It's already ... the sixteenth day."

The imperial cabinet hall of the heavenly palace in the capital of Golovin.

The Minister of Palm Seals, Metternich Leopold, sat on his seat, silently looking at the vacated seat at the end of the long table, which was only half a body away from him, but as if standing across the abyss.

From half a month ago ... when the assassination night began, he stayed here.

That ’s right, he met Metternich Leopold completely and completely through the night of the assassination. Recently, he was even separated from the elven assassins by a wall;

Although it seems very funny to Minister Zhanxi himself-because even in the most dangerous situation, no elf assassin has found this, their goal has always been placed in the majesty's palace, completely ignoring this truly mastering the empire The place of supreme power.

Of course, it does n’t matter even if it ’s found; according to Albold, the entire cabinet hall is covered with bricks carved with “silent runes”; and the “ice barrier” on the periphery of the hall is more than outside the gate of the Sky Dome It is three times stronger.

So in the eyes of Metternich, he experienced both the assassination night and the assassination night ... it was so funny.

As for the reason ... I don't know.

He only received the oracle of His Majesty the Emperor, and stayed in the Cabinet Hall. After the Royal Wizard Advisor declared all security, he declared His Majesty's order as the Minister of the Great Seal, the head of the Yuqian Cabinet.

That's all.

At the head of the cabinet, above the tens of thousands of people, the minister of the palm seal with the titles of "Shadow Emperor" and "Vice King", in Eckhardt II's eyes, is no different from the royal seal and the microphone ... Nirvana means emotional stability.

He has served Eckhart II and has accompanied his emperor from his youth to old age. He has long been accustomed to each other's wrists and acting style ... For such a powerful and full of control, all his courtiers should have no tools different.

"Sixteen days ... what are you waiting for, Lord Albert?"

Minister Palmetto looked away, and the aging, bright eyes turned to the figure of the Royal Wizard Advisor: "Even if you have been spending so long with my boring old man, should you already be bored?"

"Looking at you still joking, why am I bored?" Alber, who sat at the other end of the long table and met Metternich Leopold, smiled slightly:

"But you are right. Sixteen days ... it's almost time."

As the words fell, Albert took out a scroll from his arms very solemnly, and handed it to the Minister of the Seal of the West with respect.

"this is……"

Taking a breath, Metternich's eyes suddenly froze.

"Your Majesty's oracle is also the last one." Alber nodded slightly, with a little sorrow in his expression: "Wait silently until the time is right, and give it to the Minister of the Seal of the Crown ... It is the order your majesty gave me."

"It turns out so."

Even though he had noticed it for a long time, the Minister Zhang Xi heard it with his own ears was still very shocked; it took a minute to return to normal, and he sighed heavily.

Bloodshot eyes stared at the incompetent handwriting on the scroll, and Metternich was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

"Your Lord Alberd, do you know that once we send this imperial order in the name of His Majesty and Yuqian Cabinet ..." The sullen-faced minister of the Great Seal, dragging his hoarse voice, said with great difficulty:

"Empire ... will instantly fall into war, divided into two?"

"Or maybe rebirth?" The Royal Wizard's advisor's expression was meaningful.

"I hope so, but the fact is that because of the battle for the throne, this empire has been split in two years ago." Metternich's tone became hurried: "And this time without any preparation, Immediately issuing this imperial order without leaving any hands behind it would completely destroy the empire that had been divided ... "

"His Excellency Minister Palmetto!"

The heavy-faced Albold snapped off and surprised the old man on the opposite side.

"This is His Majesty's last Royal Order and his last wish."

"If we are his courtiers, loyal courtiers, then the only thing we can do ... is to make him wish."

"This is his plan, it is a plan he has devoted his whole life to-if you have any questions, I can understand; because it is not just you, I, including everyone, are just a part of His Majesty ’s plan. I only know what I should know. "

"I only know one thing, that is, when Your Majesty handed over any task to me, she believed with absolute confidence that I could accomplish it."

"So all I have to do is to ensure your safety, and you will sign on this handwriting ... sign your name!"

Seeing Albert, who was always mild and even weak, became so tough at the moment that Metternich said nothing.

"I understand."

Silently raising the pen, the silent minister of the seal of the palm signed his name on the scroll, stamped with a seal symbolizing the Yuqian cabinet:

"Let us loyal courtiers, to realize the wish of His Majesty ... regardless of the result!"

………………………………………

Fortress of Boundary Mountain.

In the fortress, Connor de Salion, leaning on the back of the chair, looked at the guests sitting in front of him, and no matter how restrained, he could not hide the unexpected color of the corners of his eyes.

The leader of the sorcerer's tower, the governor of Ebden ... sitting at his own table at this moment, tasting the local brews of East Sacran.

Compared with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Corona's expression at the moment can be called light and breezy; it seems that this is not the edge of the world, the front line to resist the invasion of monsters, but the general home of a friend.

This indifference made it difficult for the cavalry chief Dresis, who stood aside.

"If you want to taste the dry red of East Sackland, then I can prepare a whole horse-drawn carriage for you now."

Connold, who finally couldn't help it, finally spoke first, his tone a little indifferent: "But I want to hold Ebden and the lord of the Imperial Harbour, and go to the Boundary Mountain ... Isn't it just to find me to drink? "

"This is natural, and on the lower body is also carrying the imperial majesty of the emperor ... and some important information that you want to bring to you." Corona smiled heartily, showing a child-like expression:

"Despite this, it does not prevent me from admiring the magnificent scenery of the Jiejie Mountain and tasting the unique cuisine here, His Royal Highness the Royal Prince."

"You know ... if people who live to my age can't look away, then for me, there is only a long wait for life."

"But I'm still young and it's hard to understand the situation you said; so please speak up, Your Excellency Corona, why did you come here?"

Connor, who stood up, looked directly at Corona with his sharp eyes.

"Young man ..."

With a sigh, he shook his head, and Corona picked up the scroll that he had always placed on the corner of the table and handed it to His Royal Highness.

"This is ..." With an interrogative sentence, Connor, who took the scroll, did not open it directly, but glanced at Corona with an interrogative look.

"Information about the Azores’ kingdom of elves covers military organizations, political systems, customs of people ’s livelihood, traditions of faith ... and their unique magical theories and used by the warriors of the "Four Courts", called the "Warrior Way" the power of."

Corona said leisurely: "All the content covers all the information we have collected so far, and some even paid the price of life; after reading them, you are the person who knows the Azores in the empire the best. One. "

Connor's body trembled slightly, and then the silent scroll pressed against the table.

"So, the second question." His Royal Highness Crown Prince asked solemnly, "Why ... would I have to give such important information to me?"

"So who do you think I should give it to?" Corona asked with a smile.

Connold snorted: "Are you kidding me, right? Your Excellency?"

"On the contrary, I am fulfilling the obligations of an empire who is loyal to the empire." Corona shook her head again, without any joking expression:

"You are the crown prince of the empire and the future emperor of the empire; when the emperor is in chaos and the life and death of His Majesty Eckhart II is unknown, such important information must of course be entrusted to you. It is the most correct choice.

Connor, of course, wouldn't take it seriously, even Dresis, who was standing in the corner, was disdainful.

"Yes, but IMHO, all the people of the empire know that I support the church against the wizards; all the people of the empire also know that my dear brother Brandon is on the side of the wizard." Connor's eyes flashed move:

"And he is the second heir to the empire, second only to me."

Under the skeptical eyes of Connold and Dressis, Corona, who finally stopped smiling, slowly stood up and yelled.

"Then let me bluntly say, His Royal Highness, the last empire that can't appear at all ... is infighting and division." Corona, who looked at Connor, was extremely serious:

"I don't deny my dislike of you, just as you don't trust the wizard; but when we have to face a strong enemy, an enemy who has probably killed your father and will soon invade your country ... Unity is necessary! "

Connor did not speak.

The room was quiet for a few seconds.

"Sir Corona, your tone of voice ..." Connor, who was silent for a while, slowly raised his head, and the crimson pupil finally shivered slightly:

"It's like getting his oracle before the death of the father emperor."

Corona sighed.

"His Royal Highness, didn't you tell you when you came down?"

"On my body, I bear Eckhart II ... Your father's royal order!"

..............................................................................

"What are you talking about, Your Majesty's Royal Order ?!"

With a cry of exclamation, Grand Duke Werz of Ellerman got up from the chair behind the desk, leaving only one silver-white pupil staring at the knight kneeling on one knee.

On the night of the assassination, Yuli Wiltz, who sacrificed one eye to destroy the elf assassin, moved his daily routine of government affairs from the palace hall to the small study in the partial hall.

On the one hand, because the structure here is the strongest, and there are silent rune blessings; on the other hand, the narrow environment is not conducive to the assassin ’s hiding and escape; even if he is unfortunately killed, he can protect most people in the castle.

Since the assassination night, Grand Duke Würz, who has obtained information from the demon hunters of Byrne, has been waiting hard for news, while constantly collecting information from a chaotic imperial capital; even if it is mostly useless, he has never given up.

But even with the worst plan in mind, the Duke of Wilsz never expected that it would be such a result.

"Emperor ... dead?"

"Yes ..." The knight who knelt on his knees bowed his head, and there was a cry in his voice: "From the news sent from the Yuqian Cabinet of the Heavenly Dome, a passing demon hunter brought the intelligence."

"Eckhart II, the twelfth supreme emperor of the empire ... died in the hands of the Azore elf assassin-!!!!!!"

As he screamed exhaustedly, the light in the study seemed to dim slightly.

Grand Duke Würz, who was sinking into the water, thought of another thing.

This information was brought by the Demon Hunter of the Wings of the Sky; in other words, Loren Turin ... no, Brandon de Salion already knew it?

What will he do next, is he going to gather the forces of the two principalities of Byrne and Poi to compete with Crown Prince Connor?

In this way, without waiting for the enemy to come, the Sakran empire has been divided into two and plunged into a terrible civil war ... until enough blood flows and destroys enough land and towns ... a hand-dyed relative is chosen With the blood of his compatriots, His Majesty the Supreme Emperor of the thirteenth generation.

What should I do, what should I do?

Just a moment when Grand Duke Würz fell in thought ~ www.readwn.com ~ Outside the door of the study, a hurrying knight walked in again and put a letterhead on his desk.

The black lion gold lion of the Torino family of the Red Blood Castle, and the coat of arms of the three-dragon dragon holding the iron crown of the Dessaion family, are awesome!

"This is a letterhead from Baine, just delivered, Duke!" The sweaty knight could not wait to say: "From the Red Blood Castle, a joint letter from Duke Baine and His Royal Highness Brandon !and……"

"And what, hurry up!" The frowning Grand Duke Würz impatiently urged his knight: "What on earth do they want to do ?!"

"His Lord Loren Turin, Duke of Bain, has spread this letter as his second" empire declaration "throughout the empire, and now I am afraid that everyone has received this letter." The knight said more and more flustered , More and more confused:

"Lorren, Duke of Lorren Turin, he wants to invite all the Dukes to join him ... to the capital of Golovin ..."

"Holding Prince East Saklan, His Royal Highness Crown Prince Connold de Salion, is the supreme emperor of the thirteenth generation of the Empire!"
