The Wizard’s Fairy Tale
Chapter 555: ?The Old King's Test
A trace of understanding flashed in William's mind.
In fact, in many countries where William traveled, the folks have been circulating the story of Sphinx, which is roughly the same as the fairy tale in William’s memory, except that the Sphinx is a monster and used riddles to frame the past. Human beings, but did not say that he was dispatched by the queen Hera.
This may be related to the Church of the Lord of Light.
The Church of the Lord of Light has been erasing the traces of the ancient gods.
Therefore, even if the ancient myths and deeds are handed down, they dare not directly name the source, because they are afraid to attract the attention of the Holy See.
William's attention returned to the body of the Sphinx.
Although it was dead for many years, Yu Wei still suppressed William who was hiding in the mirror space, almost making him unable to maintain the effect of "Void Escape", showing his true shape.
This is the case with William, a second-level wizard, and the old king Philip was even more unbearable. His whole body became flushed, and he looked hard to breathe, as if he would die at any time.
Don't look at God directly!
Do not approach God!
Even if the Sphinx is just a monster and does not belong to a true god, it can be regarded as a mythical creature at best, and he has been dead for many years.
The old king Philip seemed to have done something, the iron ring on the ring finger flashed, and a transparent shield emerged, covering him, temporarily isolating the attack of the half body of the Sphinx.
The appearance of the old king returned to normal.
However, fine cracks appeared on the transparent shield, and it seemed that it would not last long.
Old King Philip quickly walked towards the body of the Sphinx.
The closer you get to the body of the monster Sphinx, the more obvious the crack on the shield becomes.
The old king became visibly nervous. He stretched out the hand with the iron ring and flicked over the sphinx's wings.
He tore off three feathers.
William in the mirror space brows-three feathers!
It turned out that the three feathers in the fairy tale "Three Feathers" were taken from here.
Want to come too.
If these three feathers are not special enough, how can they attract those wishing toads?
The cracks in the transparent shield have become very obvious.
The old king didn't dare to delay. After getting the three feathers, he hurriedly ran towards the door of the light cave behind.
In a few seconds, the transparent shield was completely shattered, and the old king Philip's "strong" body also stepped into the hole of light.
William's figure came out of the mirrored space, and fine sweat appeared between his forehead, and he could see that he was not relaxed under the pressure of the Sphinx's body.
The old king Philip tried his best to get the wing feathers of this monster. There must be something special about this feather.
The so-called goose plucking, is talking about people like William.
Those who see it have a share.
Regardless of whether it was useful or not, William wanted to pull a few feathers to study it. He couldn't study it. Isn't there a potion master who sleeplessly sleeps and eats?
So when William moved his mental power, he immediately sketched the witchcraft model of the "Witcher's Hand" in his mind.
The Wizard's Hand is just an apprentice-level witchcraft, and its structural model is relatively simple for a second-level wizard. William quickly "drawn" the witchcraft model in his mind.
Magic power is injected into it, the nodes of the wizard's hand of wizardry model light up, and nearby energy is gathered to form a large transparent hand.
William controlled this big hand and grabbed the feathers on the sphinx's body.
This monster is also weird. It has been dead for thousands of years. The body is as fast as a corpse, but the feathers are still full of life.
William secretly wondered, and the hand of the wizard controlled by the mental power approached the monster's body. The closer it was, the stronger the suppression in the air.
William seemed to be in a quagmire, and it became more and more difficult to control the wizard's hand.
Suddenly, there was a sting in his mind, and William lost the control ability of the wizard's hand, and the wizard's hand exploded silently, setting off a little air wave and was consumed invisible.
The half body of Sphinx didn't react at all.
Seeing this scene, William's face was uncertain, and the magic mirror reminded him in his mind that the master, the light array channel formed by the magic array was about to close.
William looked back abruptly, the light hole was shrinking.
This is an independent space formed by the magic circle, and the magic circle itself has a sealing function.
William was not sure whether he could leave smoothly with the Ruyi cloak after the magic circle closed the passage.
Thinking in his mind flashed like lightning, William made a decision in an instant, and walked quickly into the shrinking hole of light.
…………………………………………………………………………………………
The next day, the old King Philip, whose complexion became bloodless and his body looked weaker, summoned his three sons in the main hall of the palace.
The eldest son, Prince Charles.
The second son, Prince Frederick.
The third son, Prince Liszt.
At first, the old king Philip only wanted to summon the prince and the second prince, but later he thought he had three sphinx feathers in his hand, and he hesitated, and called the little prince Liszt.
The eldest prince Charles and the second prince Frederick both faintly knew their father's idea was to choose a new king from among them, so their eyes were full of hostility.
As for Liszt, no one took him seriously, and was magnificently ignored by the two princes.
But he didn't care, he just stood aside honestly, watching the two brothers vie against each other in front of his father, like a transparent person.
Finally, the old king Philip couldn't listen anymore, his expression was full of fatigue, and he wanted to use a mortal body to drive a magic ring without paying the price.
He coughed and swept his three sons with majestic eyes.
The eldest prince and the second prince closed their mouths suddenly, and said nothing.
The old king Philip sighed inwardly, and then said weakly, "I'm old, the kingdom of Swak needs a new lion king."
"My sons, you are so good."
"The future king is destined to be born between you."
"But you are too good, so I don't know how to choose!"
"I thought for a long time, and then let God make the decision."
The Kingdom of Swak is a kingdom that believes in the Lord of Light, but the old king only uses the title of God here, but not the Lord of Light.
The three princes listened to the words of the old king with all their attention, but did not notice this.
Their attention is focused on "the old kingdom's choice method"!
"How do you look at the floor?" Old King Philip asked suddenly.
The three princes were taken aback, lowered their heads, and their eyes fell on the dark red floor tiles.
No one knows what medicine is sold in the old king's gourd!
After a pause, the second prince Frederick replied tentatively, "Very good, very colorful! Just like flowers in spring, full of life."
"Haha... I think it is as brilliant as blood, it is the Kingdom of Swak..." The prince Charles retorted unwillingly.
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Old King Philip sighed again, recalling the scene when they were young, and remembering that at that time, their brothers were still very united.
He shook his head in his heart, threw these thoughts out of his mind, and said directly, "Unfortunately, this floor is empty and a little ugly."
"I want a gorgeous carpet to cover it."
"Which one of you brings back the most luxurious carpet, whoever can inherit the throne."
"But there is one condition!" Old King Philip said slowly.
"You must not rely on power, money, or external power. You can only rely on your own strength. The only thing that can help you win victory is your knowledge and courage!"
At this moment, it was Prince Charles and Prince Fred that both of them looked at each other at a loss, while Prince Liszt looked indifferent.
Although he is said to be inadequate, but he is more real and not stupid.
He also knew that he was just a runner in this battle for the throne.
Although, deep in his heart, he also wanted to sit in that position, so that he could realize his ideas better.
After Old King Philip said his request, he took them, under the protection of his guards, left the capital city and went to the woods on the outskirts.
The old king took out three feathers.
The feathers glowed brilliantly under the sun, and what was even more surprising was that they also exuded an indescribable fragrance.
"To be fair, in which direction the feathers are flying! Wherever you go to find the carpet!" said the old king, and then he took the first feather and blew it at it.
The feathers were floating in the air.
The wind blew from the forest, blowing the feathers in the air to the east.
"Charles, go east!"
"Yes, follow your wishes!" Prince Charles replied respectfully.
The old king nodded, took out the second feather, and blew it the same way.
The feathers are floating, towards the west.
"Ferret, you go west!"
"Yes, my King!" Prince Fredert said after a salute.
The last feather is left.
Prince Liszt looked at the old king with expectant eyes.
The old king glanced at Prince Liszt and was silent for a second. Then, without saying anything, he took out the feather and blew it at it.
There is no wind blowing.
The last feather wandered, and then fell down not far from the spot.
Prince Liszt was shocked. Prince Charles and Prince Fredert were taken aback for a moment. Prince Charles couldn’t control his mouth and smiled. Prince Fredert’s face was normal, but there was a smile in his eyes. Flashed by.
The old king had a weird look on his face, and he paused for a while before he said to the younger son, who is always truer, "Liszt...en, you can look for it nearby. Maybe, there will be unexpected gains."
This is a desolate suburb, only the green leaves of the forest are the most.
Although the old king told his sons to rely on his own wisdom and courage, many things depended on the objective environment.
Obviously, the objective environment facing the little prince of Liszt is very bad.
However, the old king didn't have much hope for Liszt's little prince, so he didn't want to change the conditions he stated.
He was silent for a moment, and after a cough, he said, "My child, go, follow the instructions given to you in the future, bring feathers, and find the most gorgeous and precious carpet for me."
Sphinx was a symbol of wisdom and knowledge in ancient times.
And his feathers, under the nourishment of some unknown power, have a magical effect.
They can inspire a person's wisdom, make people keep their eyes clear, and make their own decisions soberly and rationally.
This is the secret that the Swak royal family has studied over a dozen generations.
The old king asked them to rely on their own strength to find the best carpet, which was a test for them.
The Sphinx Feather is an old father who helps his children.
Of course, the weak master of the Swak Kingdom also had the thought of seeing what kind of transcript they would give him when inspired by Sphinx Feather!
The old king carefully warned and warned a few more, and then led the guards away.
Only three princes remained in place.
The three princes had never been so "lonely" before, not even a guard entourage.
But that's okay.
Prince Charles and Prince Fredert are both very proud and confident. They looked at each other with hostile eyes, and then turned their eyes to Prince Liszt very tacitly at www.ltnovel.com. , A smile soon filled their faces.
"Poor Liszt, this is the decree of the Lord of Light, let you understand that the throne of the Kingdom of Swak has nothing to do with you!" Prince Fredert mocked.
"Hahaha, he is right, Liszt, because of the throne of the Swak Kingdom, I will eventually inherit it! Liszt, kneel down and be loyal to me, maybe I will give you a good fief, let You have your own family! Of course, this will change your disliked character. I know it is difficult, but if you don’t do this, you won’t be welcomed by the nobles!” Prince Charles looked up to the sky and laughed triumphantly. To say.
"Father has always taught us that everything is possible before the results come out! However, Liszt, you will eventually find that the next king of the Kingdom of Swak is me!" Prince Fredert said with an angry voice.
"Huh!" Prince Charles and Prince Frederick looked at each other upset again.
Time passed by every minute.
In the end, it was Prince Fred that gave up the fearless fight first. He took up his own feather, and his mind instantly became clear, as if his head had become lighter, and his thinking had become sharper. He dismissed it and said, "It's useless to say it! I'm going to find the most beautiful carpet for my father now!"
With that said, he headed west!
When Prince Charles saw it, he was unwilling to be left behind, and quickly picked up his feathers and walked quickly to the east.
Soon, the two disappeared from the sight of Prince Liszt.
In the same place, only Prince Liszt was left sitting on the ground, holding his head in his hands, and muttered, "Great Lord of Light, please tell me what to do?"
