Section 27 Messengers of the island nation

"Harry, get me up in bed!" Sunny screamed angrily outside the door, and the door slammed with her hammer.

"What are you doing!" Ha replied unhappily as he covered his ears with a pillow. The battle with Grom has severely overdrawn his willpower, so he has been tired these days, and he has been sleeping for a long time.

"Today is the first time in nearly forty years that the island country of Monrok has sent an envoy to meet my father, didn't you promise that my father would go to cheer!" "Shanny stomped her foot and bit her plump little 'lip', Harry couldn't afford to live or die, and she couldn't help it.

Monroc was originally a vassal of the Free Empire on the island to the east. Because of the barren land and the fact that it is separated by a strait, the monarchs of the Free Empire have left the people there to form a small state on their own. As long as they come to pay tribute every year and show their loyalty, they don't bother to accept them.

For hundreds of years, nothing happened. Every year, Monroc sends emissaries to bring the island's specialties: pearls, coral, agate, woody incense, etc. These items were considered luxuries in the Free Empire, and some of Monroc's 'fine' handicrafts were also loved by many nobles.

Forty years ago, however, Monroc abruptly stopped paying tribute to the Free Empire, and there was no explanation or official explanation for why. At that time, some nobles who were fond of Monroc's luxury goods strongly advocated that the empire should levy Monroc to punish them for their rudeness, but Nilander waved his hand and said magnanimously: "It's just a little less extravagant, and it has nothing to do with the empire......!

The actual reason is that the free empire's maritime shipping industry is not developed, and if you want to conquer Monroc, you must first conquer the sea. But such a waste of money and labor is just for a useless island nation, and Nilander obviously doesn't think it's worth it.

Besides, perhaps some natural and man-made disasters may erupt at any time on that island, which is often prone to earthquakes and volcanoes, and who knows if the inhabitants of it have already perished?

Thereupon...... The island is gradually being forgotten. Now, forty years later, they suddenly sent messengers to visit...... Whatever the reason, we should give them a dismount! Let them see what it means to be a great power.

Therefore, Nilander ordered the construction of a large square in the palace to temporarily summon the envoys of Monrok, which could accommodate 10,000 people!

In addition, all knights of the Knights of the Rank 7 and above, and all soldiers of the Guards of the Guards of the rank 7 and above marched in a demonstration. The throne of Nilander was built on a 10-meter-high staircase, indicating that the Empire looked down on Monroc.

Harry was both an earl and a flying sword mage, and of course Nilander wanted him to participate. And Kerr, Kiru, and Medivan are among the most outstanding young talents of the younger generation, showing that the empire is thriving. But he couldn't help Harry, so he asked Shanny to send out an invitation in advance.

"So many people are demonstrating! I'm not the only one who is missing! Not to mention how I look like Kiru and Kir are mighty!" Harry's sleepiness had not yet faded, and he refused to get up.

"Talking doesn't count! Father Emperor has already arranged for you to accompany him, so that the people of Monrok can see that there is a lack of someone by Father Emperor's side, wouldn't it damage the face of the empire!"

"Alright! Alright, I'll go after a little sleep, you don't have to wait for me, go first!"

"Don't worry, Xianni, I'll let him go when the reception ceremony is almost started!" Tang Ling persuaded with a smile. The sun hasn't come out yet, and you want Harry to get out of bed? these days he doesn't sleep until noon, maybe he's really tired, I've never seen him so snooze before.

"Alright!" Senny wrinkled her nose and emphasized, "He must come! ”

......

On the square where the envoy of Monrok was summoned, thousands of people were already neatly packed at this time.

Nilander sits on the easternmost throne, holding a red-gold scepter representing his emperor's authority, ending in a purple 'colored' spar as large as a goose' egg. He was a majestic man, wearing a gold 'colored' crown full of gemstones, a purple and gold 'colored' dragon robe, and a red 'colored' gold-inlaid cloak dragged to the ground under a luxurious shoulder.

He looked ahead, and a momentum that was not angry but powerful spontaneously appeared.

Medivan and Kerr stood side by side on the right side of the emperor's throne, and Kerr looked solemn, and at a glance he knew that he had received a good etiquette education since childhood, and he was heroic and dignified. However, Medivan looked left and right as if he couldn't bear the loneliness, and from time to time he squeezed his eyebrows at Freya, who was not far away, and his eyes were filled with angry eyes.

Kiru stood alone on Niland's left, armed with a sharpshooter, but also majestic. It's just that there is a lack of an empty seat next to him, which seems less coordinated.

The official document of Monrok's audience had been delivered a month earlier, and the envoy had just arrived in the imperial capital yesterday. There was still some time before the time of the summons, and the people in the square were still a little busy, but the main arrangement had been completed, and the phalanx after square divided where the officials or nobles should stand. In their own phalanx, there are special "men" in charge of personnel to arrange them to predetermined places.

First of all, there were the royal clansmen, who were closest to Nilander and were divided into two phalanxes on the left and right sides of the high platform. On either side of the front are the positions where representatives of the hereditary aristocracy stood. The officials of the empire divided into two long lines, separated on either side of the red carpet road, and in front of them were two neat and mighty knights, each holding a long sword and standing motionless.

In the distance, there were some small and medium-sized hereditary nobles and some low-ranking officials, who naturally couldn't get too close to Niland, and each of them divided into sixteen identical phalanxes on both sides of the red carpet road, standing honestly in place and waiting.

The Guards were interspersed between the phalanxes, their silver armor shining in the sunlight.

The phalanxes in the distance had already settled down, after all, they were small and small, so how could they dare to delay the hour to make Nilander unhappy? On the contrary, the high-ranking nobles and high-ranking officials near Nilander came one after another, which could always cause a 'commotion' in their respective phalanxes. Some people may not have met for many years, and before the ceremony of meeting the envoys began, they greet each other in the same place and communicate with each other.

"Why hasn't Harry come yet!" said Sunny's face with anxiety, the interview was about to begin, and if she didn't come, she wouldn't be able to make it too late.

"Forget it......" Neeland also knew Harry's situation, although he was a little regretful, but he would not blame it. "If Harry doesn't come in a moment, Shanny, you'll stand by Kiru's side. ”

The dignified princess of a country, and Kiru's fiancée, it makes sense to stand next to Nilander. If Nilander didn't have two princes, he might have preferred to have them come up. However, because he has not yet established an heir, it seems a little inappropriate to send anyone to power, so he simply let Shanni fill this vacancy.

In this way, the two princes will not have any ideas, nor will they let the ministers speculate wildly.

When the sun rose to the top of the palace, hundreds of drums around the square were beaten at the same time, and the ground of the entire imperial capital shook, and the huge sound of 'waves' seemed to blow away all the white clouds in the sky. Everyone in the venue also changed their faces and became serious.

The reception ceremony has begun!

"Envoy of Xuanmeng Rok has entered the audience!" shouted a knightly officer below Nilander, a loud shout that could be heard for miles. However, all the members of the Order repeated the shout in unison, and the sound reverberated throughout the imperial capital.

Outside the square, the envoy of Monrok, who had been waiting for a long time, slowly walked towards the field.

There were more than 100 envoys in total, excluding the 'attendants' and subordinates holding tributes, and there were 44 official envoys. I saw that they looked arrogant, holding their heads high, 'straightening' and 'chest', and their expressions did not look like they had come to see them, but like demonstrations.

En'bo' squinted his eyes, and a "hum!" burst out of the corner of his mouth.

All the members of the Knights who were lined up on both sides of the road unleashed a formidable momentum in unison, and the oppression of hundreds of powerhouses above level 7 was not trivial?

The dozen or so people who walked at the forefront of the envoy group only paused slightly, but their faces were still calm, and they continued to stride forward, without being affected in the slightest. The faces of the rest of the members of the envoy group changed slightly, and their expressions were solemn, although it seemed to be a little difficult, but after all, they still started to move forward.

However, the 'attendants' and subordinates in the back, their 'legs' trembled, cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, and they couldn't take a step again.

"Haha!" A wild laugh came from the messenger group, and then all the messengers also emitted an awe-inspiring power from their bodies, which could withstand the pressure of the knights.

"If your country is not satisfied with our gift, it doesn't have to be like this...... They're just people, how can they stand up to such a scene? How can it be the demeanor of a dignified free power to embarrass such a subordinate?" His voice was shrill and piercing, but it could also be heard throughout the square.

Nilander waved his hand, and the Knights withdrew their momentum. When did Monrok appear so many masters? The people in front of him are afraid that they have at least level 9 strength, and the rest of the envoys have the worst level of strength around level 8.

I remember that when Monrok paid tribute for the last time, the most powerful of their envoys had just reached level 8......

It is unknown when the humans originated on Monroc Island, but they existed before the founding of the Free Empire. When the gods were still on the mainland, their cultivation of exercises did not reach Monrok Island, so the inhabitants there only knew some alchemy techniques to strengthen the body.

However, as they continued to interact with people on the mainland, they gradually learned part of the cultivation of the God of War, and 'groped' to improve on their own, but there were also some masters with good strength. Since the magic of the elemental gods has always been in the hands of the Magic Guild, they have not been allowed to learn it.

However, it has always been on Monrok Island, and if you can reach level 8 strength, you are already a top powerhouse, and in just forty years without contact, how can so many level 9 masters suddenly appear? And all the powerful people present have such a feeling, the strength of the other party does not seem to be the same as the god of war, and it is very different from forty years ago!
