Shaman from Afar

With the sound of the dragon dragon Mirases pouring into the sky, the "Clarion Castle" floating city finally landed slowly under the public attention and stopped on the square directly opposite the gate of the Sky Dome.

Almost as soon as they landed, the soldiers standing around the army immediately swarmed up and surrounded the entire floating city regiment. Even the exit with the protective wall was blocked, as if fearing that the assassin would rush out of it.

In the sky dome, there is an alarm bell masterpiece. From a distance, you can see the legion soldiers with bows and arrows rushing up the city wall, and you can also see a lot of heavy crossbows and torsion lobbers. They have already aimed at the towers of the floating city.

With a single order, the horn fort will be covered by countless arrows and stone cannons ... provided that she will not resist.

Just seeing this battle, one can probably guess what the nobles of the imperial capital-especially Yuqian cabinet and royal family, had to say about His Highness Brandon.

After seeing it, I still felt palpitations, but the pretended normal Brandon, Loren could not help but sigh ... his choice is correct, if he really ordered the raid of the imperial capital, the result is probably that the city gate has not yet been captured, just The thief who was declared to be a rioter.

It seems that the palace has been used to it for a long time. The flying wings of Milasis did not land, but hovered at the top of the sky dome.

According to information that Loren had obtained from the night watchmen of the gang of imperial capitals, there seems to be some kind of void barrier similar to the dragon king city, which is used to resist the dragon's air raid ...

The "City Gate" of the floating city opened, and the legionnaires standing in front of them immediately separated to the sides, forming a passage with shields and halberds; at the end of the passage, standing with a smiling Metternich Leopold.

"Secretary Zhang Xi personally greeted him, it was really flattering."

With a slight smile, the dark-haired wizard slowly walked down the stairs and walked towards the other party: "I originally thought that what was waiting for me was the night watchman and the jailer of the black prison."

"Where, where are you, as always, you like to bring surprises, Lord Duke of Lorento Turin." The Minister Zhang Xi smiled sternly, his old face was very indifferent:

"The floating city from Byrne, accompanied by the dragon's roar, landed in front of the gate of the sky dome ... Such a legendary story, the aristocrats of the imperial capital will no longer lack the banquet and salon talks in the next year."

The dark-haired wizard shrugged and said nothing.

"Although it may just be in vain, Duke Loren Turin ... do you really understand the consequences of doing so?" Metternich Leopold said softly: "You are almost using your own power like this The power provoked the nobles and churches of the imperial capital. "

"I'm just using the fastest way I can think of to get to the Imperial Capital." Loren's face showed a formal smile: "As for why it stopped in front of the sky dome ... you understand, this new The things that come out are generally not very stable. "

Such an "official" reply made the Minister of the Palm Seal, who had long been familiar with such clichés, dumbfounded.

Not very stable ... that is to say, if she is "unstable", it is still likely to fall on the top of the imperial cathedral?

"Since you say this, you must have done well to face their blame." Minister Zhang Xi turned his words and turned his eyes to the black wizard:

"His Highness Brandon de Salion is also in this floating city, right?"

Loren raised his eyebrows and continued to act silly: "Sorry, but I don't know what you're talking about."

Look up at the dragon Milasis on top of your head, dare you repeat this for me?

Or in addition to His Royal Highness Brandon, there is a second dragon-controller in this world ... if there is, it is really the luck of the empire.

Of course, the veteran Metternich Leopold would certainly not speak out; since the other party is not willing to admit it, then everyone knows it well.

What's more ... the next thing, His Highness Brandon, don't come forward.

"Duke Loren, Turin, you are a clear man, I believe you must have your own considerations on things." Minister Zhang Xi nodded slightly and waved his back to the side:

"Guests of Byrne, there is a place for entertaining in the Sky Dome; Lord Duke, please invite you to come alone with me-where we are going, there must be no others."

The footsteps roared, and the legionnaires on both sides immediately cleared the way; with the sound of heavy chains and gears turning, the main entrance of the Sky Dome was opened.

Loren accepted with pleasure, nodded to the knights and counts behind him, and couldn't help but sigh.

Don't eat hard and hard, don't eat oil and salt ... This minister of the seal of the seal is really good at pretending to be silly and stupid, and to resolve the contradiction in the invisible.

According to the script that Loren and Brandon "compiled", they should make a fuss just after going down the floating city, show the force of the floating city, and give Connor supporters a little color by the way-since they want to Show off, of course, show off a little more thoroughly.

But the minister in front of him seemed to realize this long ago. Not only did he "kick off" Connold ahead of time, but he also completely put all his lies to the circle.

Passing through the main gate of the heavily guarded Sky Dome, the Byr Knights and Earls who accompanied them, and even Loren ’s personal guard (Lusien strongly protested, invalid) were "forced" by the guards of the Sky Dome Partial hall.

On the blue stone road deeper into the Sky Dome, only Loren and Metternich Leopold were left.

Despite the turbulence of the "Assassination Night", there was no trace at all on the entire sky dome-the pillars in the main hall still stood tall, and the blue stone slabs at the foot still exuded solemn atmosphere.

According to Peter Fasha, one of the elven assassins that night was good at range attack, and used the "warrior way" of flames and ice at the same time, almost destroying the main hall of the heavenly palace.

But now ... the dark-haired wizard can't even tell which one of the pillars and slabs is old or new-with the exception of a slight difference, there is no difference at all.

The only difference is that the guards and blockades around them are much stronger than when they last came.

This is the glory of the 12th generation of glory, De Salion, who is above the top of the empire, the heritage of the Dragon King family?

"You have doubts in your expression." Minister Palmetto said slowly as he walked slowly: "Is it because of the guards around you that you saw more than when you last came?"

The dark-haired wizard shrugged.

"I think this is understandable. Last time, I was still a little wizard who was summoned by the emperor." Loren said with a chuckle: "This time I took the army and the counts to the sky dome. Duke Byrne, the guest of the palace. "

"The Duke is joking again. For the Sky Dome, the Duke and the wizard are the same; adding guards is only necessary to guard after the assassination, otherwise the Yuqian Cabinet and the Secretary of the Military will not look good."

Still not oil and salt.

Loren, who kept a formal smile, had a stiff smile.

"But ... Since the night of assassination, I heard that the Lord Duke not only made the Azore elf assassin go back without success, but also successfully captured a captive?"

Metternich changed the subject once again, focusing on the Azores: "Now it's been a long time since that sad night. I think you must know the situation of the Kingdom of Azores?"

Secretary of the Seal ... He is still avoiding the topic from the problems of Brandon and Connold.

Fortunately, it just happened to coincide with myself ... Maybe I can take the opportunity to win the Yuqian cabinet.

"Yes, that's why I wrote the" Empire Manifesto "... I don't know if the royal court of Deqaion in the Imperial Cabinet and the Sky Vault is clear, but the Azores are indeed an enemy to be reckoned with. "Lorraine said:

"Maybe you think I exaggerate it; but the fact is that even if we are united and united, we may not be able to successfully repel their invasion ..."

Loren's words came to an abrupt halt, because Mettner Leopold on his side suddenly stopped, staring at himself with a complex gaze, motionless.

"Master Metternich Leopold?"

"Lorren Turin, I have always been curious about you, constantly studying you, really." Minister Zhang Xi suddenly said: "Not from the imperial trial, but from the time when Ebden. "

"Yes, maybe this is unexpected for you ... but in fact, your existence was noticed by the Sky Dome much earlier than you think-I guess, Your Majesty knows your existence, it may be earlier. "

As soon as the dark-haired wizard wanted to say something, Metternich Leopold raised his hand and stopped.

"You know, for His Highness Brandon ... or for many people, you are a good person who brings 'surprise' to others; at this point, I have to praise two sentences; indeed, from Ebden's From the civil strife to the Centaur War, and even this incident of the Azores, your performance is perfect. "

"Why are you so perfect?" Minister Zhang Xi seemed to be asking himself and answering himself: "I have been thinking hard for a long time, and I can't understand it-maybe you think it is caused by the old man's pedantic; Maybe, but in my grade, I no longer believe in a savior. "

"So, the answer is that you and all of us ... including the two His Highness Dessalines ... are different."

"For us, to believe in the Holy Cross, even if it is only superficial; to follow imperial laws and customs, even if you just pretend to be; to stick to tradition and pride, to do things that conform to your identity ... These are things that are instilled in our bones and souls."

"But to you ... I'm not defamating you, but looking at what you do looks like it to you ... it's like the background of a certain legend; you, completely follow another set, and we have nothing There is no same 'cognition'. "

"From the chaos in Eboden to the 'Empire Declaration', what you did seems to tell me that this empire can be saved not only by the emperor but also by anyone-this is even the 'Black Duke' Unprecedented, big idea! "

Metternich de Salion frowned, with a solemn expression: "So now I tell you-if the new emperor of the thirteenth generation is elected, then he is your monarch; this is a sacred oath and not Some kind of 'contract'; unless irrevocable, you can't violate your emperor, let alone abandon him! "

"You're 'swearing allegiance' to your emperor, not something similar to his agreement; even Roland Turin, even if his prestige almost surpassed Mad Queen Dragon ... He finally proved him with death Oath and loyalty. "

"There is only an emperor in the Sakran Empire, no savior; if there is, then it must be our emperor!"

Clang's powerful words echoed in the ear of the dark-haired wizard.

The dark-haired wizard nodded and understood.

It turned out that ... it turned out that this is why the imperial nobles so repelled themselves and Brandon, but now they are trying their best to resolve the contradiction between themselves and Connold.

Traditions, rules, customs, classes ... the things they insist on have become the "Sacran Empire" in their eyes.

So while they tried to exclude themselves, they tried to ensure the order of the empire as much as possible, to ensure that Connaughter could not do anything with himself.

Such a contradictory move is not because of any "consensus" with themselves, but in their view this is "in accordance with rules and traditions."

That's all.

Seeing Loren nod, Mettner Leopold ’s face finally smiled again-just like the old man who saw the prodigal son turn back: "Then, I wish you first to be able to build no less 'The great cause.'

"For today's empire, there are not many heroes who can turn the tide."

That's right, a hero who has turned the tide ... not a savior.

Loren chuckled and didn't care about the other party's words: "Oh, what the **** are you going to take me to--the Yuqian cabinet, just as if we had just walked by."

"Yes ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ So the place we are going to is not the Yuqian Cabinet; there ... it is not a place to entertain the Duke."

Minister Palm Seal smiled easily, with a somewhat mysterious expression: "The place we are going to was established by the second generation of the supreme emperor, Eckhard I, the Hall of the Royal Sword Knights!"

Royal Sword Knights?

The dark-haired wizard knew a little bit about this organization, only knowing that it seemed to involve a council of the emperor himself and the dukes, but it had not been used for many years.

By the way, it is worth mentioning that the ancestral Mithril sword "Dawn" of the Turin family is a token of the members of the Knights of the Royal Sword; the rest of the dukes, including the Prince of East Sakland, have their own swords.

Hey wait, he said ... Duke? !

"That's right, as you think." Minister Zhang Xi's smile was even stronger: "Except for you, all the dukes, including the governor of Eboden, arrived at the Sky Dome yesterday."

"Duke Loren, Turin, you seem to be late."
