Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Chapter 1123 Coronation Ceremony (1)

The morning in Seck City was slightly cold, and the breeze blowing on his body made people feel a little chill. Ryan tightened his collar tightly, and slowly walked into the central square of Seck City behind Moneybag John and the others.This city Ryan has only rushed back and forth once before, and did not go deep into it. Today, he is standing in this large square that can accommodate 100,000 people, watching the people around him with a bystander mentality.

From the perspective of people in the imperial capital or Cassano, the people under the rule of Senat should lead a life of dire straits. They live like years every day, eagerly looking north for the imperial army to rescue them.However, the situation in front of him was not completely like this. At least, Ryan saw a certain expectation from the faces of the guards around him, as if the people of the imperial capital fought bloody battles with the invading orcs, hoping that his descendants could live a good life.

This discovery surprised Ryan, but when he substituted himself into the ordinary soldiers around him, it was easy for him to understand the other's thoughts. Perhaps Senat's rule was quite harsh, but the people he ruled were still reluctant. Can eat enough, and in the official propaganda of Senat, this is because the imperial capital has pressed down the heavy taxes in Seck City, which has dragged down the development of the entire territory, and the lord of Senat is to protect the people here from the enslavement of the imperial capital. A huge army must be maintained. Of course, this military expenditure will also be shared by the people here.

Now Senat declares independence and is crowned king.In this way, he became the same existence as Fernando XIV, who was under the age of the imperial capital. The two different regimes were of course independent of each other. The people of Seck took it for granted that their future life would not be so hard. Because they don't have to pay taxes to the imperial capital anyway, the king of that place has never been here, and it seems that their lives have never improved.

Thoughts like this, in fact, there are markets in southern cities or regions such as Cassano, Freedom Paradise, and Mochizuki City, but the extent is different. At least from the perspective of human history, Seck City has never really surrendered The rule of the North naturally has a much greater sense of resistance in this regard, while cities like Freedom Paradise and Mochizuki City have always adopted a neutral posture, often choosing a superficial surrender, but in fact they are still going their own way, as for Cassano It was originally chaotic enough, and before Ryan unified it, there was no real belonging at all, nothing more than a combination of interests.

"Perhaps, it was not that Fernando I could not force the south of the mainland by force, but he took a long road in consideration of the difference between the north and the south, but when he died, the successor of the empire fell into an internal struggle. Use your own hands to begin to weaken the precious combat power of the Imperial Capital Magic Guild.” Ryan said to himself silently in his heart: “But now the times have changed, no matter what the people in the South think, we must work together to truly fight the Undead Legion, so ..."

"Look, look, ah, here, you see, this army is so powerful, and their armors are all the strongest body armor!" The mercenary around Ryan made a sound of amazement, which made Ryan's thoughts back. At the coronation ceremony in front of him, he looked up and saw a guard of more than a thousand people quickly entered from outside the square. Every time they walked about 10 steps, they would leave two guards in a space over 20 meters wide. Standing on both sides of the road, holding a sharp long axe facing the crowd, the long axe they are holding is not so much a weapon as a kind of ceremonial guard. The outside of this weapon looks unusually bright and can even be The white pheasant tail feathers on the helmet of the guard holding it are clearly seen on the plane of the axe.

While these guards were walking slowly, dozens of men dressed as servants ran across the central road quickly carrying a bright red carpet. They seemed to have practiced countless times a long time ago, and they maintained a fast running speed. At the same time, the rolled up red carpet can still be stretched and laid in the middle of the road skillfully.

Then came a large group of young girls, wearing white sleeveless bras and holding a large flower basket in their hands.Before these girls walked in, a strong fragrance of flowers came in. It turned out that the flower baskets in their hands contained the most delicate flowers, all of which were just picked an hour ago. Ryan can even see them. Dew to the top.

"It's luxurious!" This is the only thought in Ryan's mind. Compared with the wedding of Emperor Fernando XIII, Senat's coronation ceremony can be described as luxurious. It can be said that Ryan can imagine the cost. , All can be seen here, no wonder Senate is about to place a large order immediately.

"Woo!" The majestic horn sounded, followed by dozens of huge war drums being beaten. Accompanied by the beat of the war drums, a high platform slowly approached the observatory in the central square.Ryan's forehead twitched slightly, because he didn't find any traces of magic fluctuations from the high platform, but Ryan soon laughed dumbfounded, because he discovered that this Senat's idiot was not manipulated by magic, but carried by humans. Marching.

The entire Nianyu is about 5 meters high, but its area is quite large. Ryan estimated it a little, and it looks like a hundred people can stand on it, but there is nothing else on the entire Nianyu. Only a throne was placed in the center, and Senat, dressed in costume, was sitting there.

When Senat's Nian Yu passed on the red carpet, a shower of flowers suddenly appeared in the sky. It was the flowers swayed by the girls on both sides of the road, and the air was naturally filled with a rich and tangy fragrance.This smell made Ryan quite familiar. He suddenly remembered that this smell was exactly one of the perfumes Faras liked to use. This perfume was a secret recipe unique to a certain nobleman in the Imperial Capital. The perfume shop he opened was very popular, with every small bottle of perfume. The prices are quite expensive. They did not expect that this time they also smuggled the perfume to Seck City secretly for money.

"Hey! Hey!" When Nianyu at Senat's feet passed by Ryan, hundreds of people were chanted from Nianyu, and now he saw this rare scene up close. Naturally, others were ecstatic, but Ryan’s nose suddenly itchy, because he smelled a slight smell of blood in the strong smell of perfume in the air, which is the same as when he sniffed by the blood pool of King Alexander Andrew’s grave. The smell that arrived was exactly the same, he looked around, planning to find out the origin of this bloody breath, but suddenly found that the smell had gradually disappeared.

Someone else might think that he made a mistake, but the experience of Andrew’s tomb is something Ryan will never forget, so he doesn’t doubt his feelings at all, but for a while, he can’t find the source of that bloody breath. It also made Ryan a little strange. He casually looked around, hoping to find something to remind himself. When he cast his gaze back to the back of Senator, Ryan suddenly had a thought, and he finally knew Where did that taste come from? Yes, it came from Senat on the top of the throne.
