Pivot of the Sky
Chapter 164 162. Escape plan
Amon captured King Lucille of Hattie alive and let a cat sit on the throne in the middle and enjoy the roast wine first, while the king watched. This scene provoked Celia, the great magician of the court, and Amon's clandestine assault on the king under her nose was a disgrace and disgrace, which was even more intolerable.
Celia asked Amon for a duel, and Amon said yes. Later, at a banquet of talks between the two countries, the matter was raised again, and King Ecupharaoh and King Khati even said that they wanted to witness the duel.
Although the duel was a private act, Celia's fight with Ammon had been tantamount to an agreement endorsed by the Sovereigns of both countries. Unfortunately, King Lucille and Pharaoh Racis II have been slain successively, and even the successor Pharaoh Erlacht cannot oppose Siamese's participation in this world-famous duel. Therefore, this is Amon's best chance to leave Ecu.
The duel was long overdue, but was delayed by many unexpected factors. As soon as Ammon returned to Ecuadorian territory, the Army of Uruk of the Kingdom of Baron attacked, and World War I was crowned with the glory of Ammon Empire General. The war had just subsided, and another war had broken out between Hati and the Kingdom of Baron at the northern end of the Syrian desert.
Prince Yasser fought with Grey on the front line, looking to win the whole battle, but suddenly a message came from King Hattucer, King Lucille's fall, Yasser's brother Einis succeeded him as the new king under the patronage of the lingering group, and urged Prince Yasser to return to King Lucille's funeral.
Lucille let Yasser command the army and let Gregory help, with the obvious intention of telling Yasser to build his prestige of merit before succeeding him. Lucille's death was sudden. Everyone suspected that it had something to do with the battle for the throne. If Prince Yasser truly handed over his discharge power to the King's capital, it would be sheep entering the tiger's mouth.
With the bold consent of the front-line generals and the support of the front-line generals, Prince Yasser quickly ended the war in a negotiated manner with the Kingdom of Barren, leading the elite generals of the army back to the capital in the name of the bereavement of the participating countries. Einis, the new king, was already in vain. Whether Lucille's death was in his heart or not, he had no idea that Prince Asher would lead the army back to the Dynasty.
Einis succeeded with the support of King Prime Minister Djuguly. In panic, he obeyed the advice of His Highness the Prime Minister, and opened a magical battle to guard the capital of the king, blocking everyone from the city, leaving Prince Yasser alone in the city for crimes against the king's orders.
Assyria did not fully comply with the King's orders, but he could not be said to be guilty. Ainis did not expect the war to end so soon, and his original order was for Yasser to entrust the battlefield commander-in-chief to Grey and come back to the funeral himself. As a result, the battle was over, the Kingdom of Baron was discharged, and Gore and his generals returned with Yasser. Yasser was not at fault on the face of it, but the country succeeded!
The generals quit and promoted the usurpation of Prince Ennis' father in the army. Now they are going to kill the minister of merit and plan to launch an army to attack the king, and a civil war is about to erupt. The Khatusha City pool is strong and guarded by a great array of magic. It is difficult to attack, and whoever wins, the end result will be two defeats.
At this critical juncture, Gore called the gate of the city to enter Wangdu alone. He was the Honorary Chief Elder of the Hattie Academy of Theology, and his prestige in the kingdom was so high that no one could stop him.
Gore went to the palace to meet the new king and reported the front line battle, and asked privately: "Your Majesty, you should know the result. If Prince Ashitaka must initiate a mutiny, the king will not be able to hold on. What will happen to you and what will happen to the Kingdom of Hati? Do you want to hurt the entire kingdom in a civil war or do you want a decent solution? ”
Without wishing to listen to this, Einis held Grey in the royal palace in the name of negotiating the affairs of the state, but caused division among the factional forces in the capital city and popular dissatisfaction. Hattie Academy of Theology first objected to the King's retention of Gregory, even saying that if the chief elder was not released, they would no longer run the magical battle of the Guardian Capital.
Even if Gregory didn't resist, Einis wouldn't dare kill him. If the new king doesn't kill Grey, he can negotiate. If he kills Grey, he will surely cause mutiny. King Einis then sent the Chancellor, Lord Choculi, to persuade the song to support himself. Choculi's nephew was Raphael, Gregory's favorite student, who thought Gregory was an interest group with himself.
And Gregory asked the Chancellor, "I don't ask how King Lucille died, do you know what happened to him? Do you want to bury yourself while all the kings are destroyed and the kingdom is traumatized, or do you want to put an end to this coup d 'état with innocent generals and the people? I can keep your family safe, as long as you persuade Ennis to do as I say, and now he's scared and he won't listen to me. ”
Gore was eventually released from the royal palace, and the new king ordered him to reside at the Hattie Academy of Theology, amounting to house arrest in disguise. At this time, the sub-division outside the city had led the army to re-encircle all the gates of Wang Du. There was also a lot of news from outside the city. The eventual settlement of the incident was unknown to the outsiders, but there was no coup d 'état or mutiny in the Kingdom of Hati.
Wang Du's magicians stopped the battle to guard the city pool, and Ya set up princes and generals to lead hundreds of people into the city to live in his own mansion. The Hattie Academy of Theology and the main temple of Hattie were sent to protect the palace and the house of the prince, respectively. On that night, the new king, Einis, who had just succeeded him for one month, announced his retirement and was handed down to Asher.
Yasser regained his throne, and if he started a mutiny, he might be able to accomplish the same thing, but the significance today is completely different. Einis withdrew voluntarily. The new king, who had just taken office, issued a decree declaring that the country could not live without a monarchy due to the sudden fall of his father. This is why he temporarily took over the power stabilization situation. Now that the wise prince Ashima of the divine martial arts is back, his father had long had a fate to set Ashima as his new monarch. Einis' mission was finally accomplished, officially handed down in Ashima, and his heart was even pleased.
This is the best ending for Einis, who is also the official monarch of the Hattie kingdom lineage, not the usurper, but the proactive retreat of Jian Xian, a short month of king's career is also for national merit. It was also the result of a compromise between the parties, which gave Yasser a strong commitment not to hold accountable all those involved in the coup.
The situation forced Einis to say yes, even if he didn't want to. The Prince Yasser succeeded smoothly, avoiding a civil war that divided the kingdom, and the Chancellor, Lord Choculi, resigned due to illness and preserved his family by still enjoying the honorable title. Although Yasser promised not to hold Wang accountable for his remaining ministers, the change of power and cleansing was inevitable, as was the resignation of the Prime Minister.
Gore stayed until the situation stabilized before leaving. His praise was so great that King Asher did not know how to seal the reward. He did not have to give Gore a courtesy in front of the king, he had a special seat in the palace and other glory, and asked him face to face: "Lord Gore, how can Asher thank you, like my father? ”
“All I have done is for the people of Hathai," said Gregory. "If Your Majesty wants to thank me, please be kind to this kingdom. Let me live the life I want, and as long as I do, I will thank Your Majesty. ”
Do what you like, this is the biggest reward, hardly anyone gets it, but Gregory gets it. Gore did not want to stay in Wang Du as a power minister. Of course, it was difficult to force Yasser to do so. He returned to the state of Syria, promoted Wallet as the chief cleric of the city, and he continued to have the honor of the chief elder of the Hattie Academy of Theology.
Assumption's desire to appoint Rafael as Minister of the Interior of the Kingdom is both a boost to the forces that formerly supported the Einis faction and a disgrace to Gogh. Rafael, however, did not want to be here and remained in Syria City State as a high priest of the city state.
Celia, the great magician of the court, has also experienced this series of winds, of course she has no time to fight with Amon, and during this time she is at the threshold of breaking through the eighth level of achievement and needs to practice. By the time she officially possessed the eighth level of achievement, the Kingdom of Hati had returned to calm and a messenger could be sent to find the time and place where Ammon had promised to fight.
Celia's messenger hasn't left yet, but Ammon's messenger arrived first, John.
Amon asked John to leave Ecu first with thirty-six of his own guards, and there was also a mission to find Celia to agree on the time and place of the duel. John took Amon's handwritten letter, and it said —— “You pick the place, it's in Hattie; I'll set the time, on arrival.” Amon gave John a chance to find Celia when Moses and others were about to leave Ecu.
Celia responded quickly and immediately sent a messenger to Ecu to set the spot for the duel, which was where Amon had captured King Hattie's camp. As for time, of course, after Amon arrived there, it was up to the General himself, Celia, to wait.
When Celia's messenger arrives, Amon, who is a closed guest, must of course receive him personally and set up a banquet to pay tribute to his hard work. The messenger was somewhat of a dark surprise when he saw the legendary Ecumenical Empire General Amon. Amon looks too young to be a teenager, but it feels that deep again, like a profoundly unpredictable god.
Amon had been strong since he was sixteen years old and was no different from an adult. His teenage age age age, in an environment like the town of Duke, the son of an old alcoholic provoked the burden of life very early, and the encounter forced him to mature prematurely. Later, he was treated as a god in the Cave Wildlings tribe, and his words and deeds naturally had a certain temperament.
But these are not the main reasons why Amon has just gone through hundreds of years in Schrödinger's soul imprint, like hundreds of years of truth! He used to feel like a teenager, more stable and resilient than his peers, and Amon's invisibility at this moment is really unpredictable.
But he hasn't changed much since he was seventeen years old, breaking through the seven levels of strength of the two sides, his face was handsome, he had slightly curved short hair, and he laughed and sometimes looked like a child. The messenger had full confidence in his master Celia, but when he saw Amon, his heart was gone. Go back and tell Celia what it felt like.
The messenger is a young man in his twenties, with round head and round eyes. He looks a little cute, cute and still shows, named Rumor Leo, who calls himself "Little Rumor” in front of Amon and is Celia's servant. Amon told Rumour Leo that he would soon set out to a designated location on the south-west coast of Inland Lake and would inform Celia as soon as he arrived.
Rumour Leo laughed: "The Grand General does not have to inform Lord Celia, I will wait for you there, as soon as you arrive, Lord Celia will be informed. ”
Rumor has it that Leo left, pointing to Schrödinger, who stayed with Amon until his arrival: "Is this the cat, the pet the Great General took to war? Extraordinary! ”
Schrödinger sneezed, twisted his neck and ignored the rumor Leo. And when he was gone, Schrödinger said to Amon, "This messenger is not a man. Have you noticed? ”
Amon slightly said, “I don't think this person is easy, but I don't see that he's not human. What do you mean? ”
Schrödinger: "You have all my insights, but you have not yet reached my accomplishments. You can see that this man is unusual, but you have not felt his innate breath. He's the same as I should have been back then. It's an illusion of animals opening up spiritual training and being able to transform into human beings instead of deformation or information theology, so you don't see it.... Do you remember what Celia said when she asked you for a duel? ”
Amon thought and said, "She said to me at the time - when this war is over, I will carry the spirit beast that I summon, and you will bring this cat and give it a real try! ”
Schrödinger nodded: “Now that the summoning beast is offered to fight together, that Celia must be a summoning magician, what she called the summoning beast is most likely this rumor Leo, now come to see the opponent in advance. You must be careful in this duel. The real caution should be the Summoner. ”
Amon has not practiced summoning magic, but he understands. The magicians nurture some mutant beasts that open their minds, teach them magical powers, and make soul covenants with their magic, allowing them to accept the call of the magicians to help fight. Broadly speaking, Best was also the summoning beast of Osiris at that time. More broadly, the spirit of death was also a summoning magic, able to gather the power of the living soul for his own use.
But intelligent summoning of divinity in the world usually refers to a situation in which great magicians make covenants with powerful mutant monsters, teach them the secrets of many practices in the world, and provide all kinds of help in exchange for summoning beasts to appear in battle, helping great magicians to confront powerful enemies.
Sometimes summoning spiritual beasts is even more powerful than summoning their masters. Soul contracts require them to sign voluntarily. After all, wild beasts practice on their own. They may be hunted down as demons, but being sheltered and helped by a great magician in the world will have unimaginable advantages and conveniences.
Amon nodded, "I've seen Celia do it, and she's strong enough for a level seven magician. Haven't seen her in such a long time, maybe she could break through the eighth level of achievement, but I'm confident I won't lose to her. As for that little rumor, he shrank his breath, and I don't see how powerful it really is, but at least it shouldn't be any better than me, it should be stronger than Celia. ”
Schrödinger said worryingly: “He has at least eight levels of achievement, and he summons spiritual beasts differently from people. You have seen the cloud dream. He has a gifted magical foundation, and does not change due to the power of awakening. Once many mutant beasts have advanced achievements, there is no need for a second awakening of power. Celia had asked you to fight with me against her and her summoning beast, but unfortunately I don't have the strength to help you fight now. Can you handle them alone? ”
Amon looked at Schrödinger and smiled softly: "Will you be my summoning beast? ”
Schrödinger's tone was unclear whether it was a grievance or a delicacy: "If you must ask me to be a summoning beast, of course I will not refuse, but I will only be able to do it. ”
Amon laughed and said, “Why are you so pathetic? I'm not Osiris, and you're not Best, and I've never treated you as a pet, a waiter, a summoner, or a beast, and I wouldn't let you do that. As for the duel with Celia, my helpers chose me for a long time, and it was kind of her experience. ”
Schrödinger suddenly responded, “You mean the Cloud Dream? I'm not sure how powerful Cloud Dream is today, but it shouldn't be against that little rumor. ”
Amon shook his head: “I'm not going to let Cloud Dream deal with the little rumor, all it has to do is hold Celia, I'll deal with this powerful summoning beast myself, this duel will be fun.... Forget about it, this duel is just an excuse for me to leave Egyptian behind Moses and you are the one I care about most right now. ”
Schrödinger: "Me? That's not a good idea. Just like before, you put me in your pocket and we'll just leave Equus together. As for the matter of unsealing the soul seal, you have tried your best, don't rush to do it, do your thing first, don't delay for me. ”
Amon looked up at the sky and sighed for a long time, seemingly with deep regret. Schrödinger asked strangely: "What is wrong with you? I rarely hear you sigh like this. It seems like something has been discovered or something has been lost? ”
Amon smiled: "Before the messenger arrived, I had found the seal that trapped your soul. You can untie it whenever you want, but if you don't want to, you can never untie it. ”
Schrödinger was surprised and surprised: "Have you found a way to unseal the seal? How could I not? You tell me, I've waited a hundred years, and I've waited until today. ”
But Amon sat down next to Schrödinger and patted him gently on the back with his hand: “Osiris did not know by what means, but your soul was confined first and foremost. Can I ask you a few questions, first of all, please tell me that Best didn't actually disappear back then, just that the soul changed its body, right? ”
