After listening to Anna's words, Roja felt relieved, and the two of them chatted quietly. After more than an hour, the driver outside came to the news that the Holy City had finally arrived after a three-day journey.
St. Lorraine, as the headquarters and facade of the Heathcrete family, can be said to be quite majestic. This can be seen from the city walls. The city walls of Lorraine are more than ten meters long, and they are all made of huge rocks. It is off-white, with a refreshing and holy feeling, and the soldiers passing and going on it are fully equipped with helmets and armors, and they look very good.
Of course, it's just for show, don't look at the high city and deep pool here. In fact, Saint Lorraine has never experienced a war of aggression in history, because this is the original goddess, that is, the holy land of the Sia believers, and the Sia believers are in the whole world. Human society has a wide range of beliefs, so even if it is a rebellion, no one has to fight here.
What is the combat effectiveness of soldiers who have not experienced war?There are many examples in the history of this past life. Anyway, Roja thinks that the combat effectiveness of these guys is quite open to question.
The carriage was driving on the road, and the tall city walls were getting closer and closer. The exquisite and luxurious noble cars naturally attracted the attention of the crowd and soldiers who lined up at the city gate to enter the city.
"What a beautiful car, where is this noble man from?"
"This should be a great nobleman."
The people looked at the convoy and talked about it, but the soldiers knew exactly what they were looking for.
"Look, that sign!"
"The eye of the candle flame is the Akat family."
"Akat? Quick, open the side door, open the side door!"
The scout who saw the unique family crest of the Akat family informed the general of the results. The general in charge of the city gate immediately shouted and opened the side gate. The crowded crowd made way and looked at the passing carriage in awe. .
Roja watched the people outside in the car, and for the first time understood the prestige of the Acate family in the entire Theocracy. Let them go.
"Ah, so it seems okay that our family is in the military headquarters?"
"The Akat family has great influence in the military department, and the master has joined the army for nearly 20 years."
Anna answered Roja's question in this way, which made the boy and the awakened girl realize the weight of their surname again.
This time I have to perform well, don't be ashamed.
Roja made up his mind in his heart, looked at Alisa and nodded to each other.
After the carriage entered the city, the speed slowed down a lot. There were more and more people along the way who saw the Akat family crest and talked a lot, and many people were still doing science popularization for others.
In this noisy atmosphere, the convoy gradually drifted away, left the downtown area and came to the villa area with beautiful scenery and elegant environment. After turning the wheels for more than ten minutes, the carriage finally entered a courtyard and stopped at a In front of the antique building.
The labyrinth mansion of the Akkat family has arrived.
Chapter 36 Rejecting the Queen is a Family Tradition
The House of the Labyrinth, owned by the Acate family, is a fairly well-known place in Santo Lorraine. There have been rumors circulating among the people for many years that the house of the Acate family cannot be invaded.
It is said that if someone who is welcomed by the owner enters the labyrinth, everything will be as usual. If someone who is not welcomed by the owner enters the labyrinth, a maze will appear in front of the intruder. want to get out.
Where this rumor came from is now unknown, but the content can be said to fully reflect the people's awe of the unknown power that Akat, a wizard family, has mastered for a long time.
Today, just after arriving in the holy capital, Roja was fortunate to come to such a famous scenic spot and live in it as its owner.
"Father, is the content of this rumor true?"
Looking at the clean and tidy, but the design style is an ancient building a hundred years ago, Roja curiously asked about the real situation, Cartier smiled, took Roja and Alyssa into the study, sat in the The chair told them about their family history.
"This mansion was built by the Acate family owner three generations ago, that is, my grandfather Ponte Acate. It has a history of more than 170 years."
Through the mouth of Katya, Roja and Alyssa heard a piece of history that is only preserved in history books, and almost no one in the market today knows about it.
About 200 years ago, a pair of twins were born in the Heathcrete family of the Holy Meister Church. The boy was named Wade Heathcrete, and the girl was named Victoria Heathcrete. The siblings are both extremely talented, and they broke through the source level 4 at a young age and became high-level transcendental beings.
Originally, this was a good thing for the Heathcrete family, but what was unexpected was that an accident made Princess Victoria discover that her younger brother Vader was actually connected with the cult.
As the heir to the Holy See, Vader has an affair with a cult. This can be said to be a matter that subverts everyone's three views. If it were someone else, I would probably make the matter public at the first time, but the smart Victoria did not do so.
Victoria knew that her status as the second in line heir was too sensitive. Acting rashly would not only be ineffective but might be labeled as a rebellion. After careful consideration, she informed Ponte, who was her spell teacher at the time, of the matter. .
Ponte believed Victoria's words after a series of verifications, and the two began to collect evidence, preparing to expose Vader's true colors after the return of the contemporary Holy See who had gone to the empire. Unexpectedly, Vader was so careful that he discovered Victoria and others People's plans, so a bloody civil strife began, known as the March Rebellion in history.
At that time, three of the five nobles were on the side of Prince Vader. One family was neutral in order to protect itself. Behind Victoria was only the Acate family and the army under Ponte. The situation can be said to be very unfavorable. To confront the world, a month-long offensive and defensive battle was launched.
Under the joint suppression of the three noble armies, Prince Vader's faction and the cult, even with the help of Ponte, the queen's army was still retreating steadily. The strong smell of blood and corpses lingered.
During the battle, Victoria and Ponte were seriously injured, and the reinforcements they asked for were also blocked outside the city. In desperation, Ponte had no choice but to survive. He used his family's treasures to completely maze the surrounding area, and hid Victoria in it.
It is said that at that time, the enemy army dispatched nearly ten thousand people to rush into Locke Street where the two were hiding, but not to mention finding them out, there were not many people who could come out of the foggy block again.
This situation lasted for nearly two weeks, and these two weeks also changed the history of the Church.
At that time, Victoria's messenger broke through many obstacles and successfully met the Great Holy See who was outside. The Holy See was shocked when he heard that Vader had fallen into a cult and killed his sister. He hurried back from the empire and finally succeeded before the Great Labyrinth was breached. rushed back.
And this labyrinth house was the place where Victoria and Ponte hid at that time. There is still a piece of treasure fragments in the house, so it has some magical functions.
"After that? After that?"
Hearing the story, Roja, who was half cut in half, was extremely uncomfortable, and eagerly asked about the ending. Alyssa also showed curiosity on the side, and Katya smiled and said:
"The rest is the normal content. Prince Vader was defeated and arrested by the returning Holy See, the cult was uprooted, the three nobles were punished, the ancestors of Ponte and Victoria were rescued, and Victoria succeeded as queen, Ah The Carter family has also received a huge amount of compensation, and our Akater family has become close comrades-in-arms with Heathcrete since that generation."
Cardia's words made Roja and Alisa smile. No matter where they are, this kind of dramatic victory of justice over evil is very exciting, especially for their own ancestors who won.
"But speaking of this, there is actually another rumor in this story."
"Rumour?"
The silver-haired girl asked curiously after listening to Katya's words. The man smiled and pondered for a long time, and finally spoke out in Roja's disgusted eyes.
"I heard that during that battle, Queen Victoria and Ancestor Ponte depended on each other for life and death. After the incident, the Queen confessed to her ancestors, but...the ancestors rejected her on the grounds of age gap and teacher-student status."
