Lin An could even faintly smell the smell of blood hidden in the approaching storm.

This iron-blooded monarch, who is famous for his prowess and talents, and regards the expulsion of demons and the unification of the continent as his lifelong wish, and his achievements in ruling will be recorded in the annals of history as a great martial artist who opened up the territory and expanded the territory.

The army of this Great Emperor, to the north, once advanced the northern front to the Demon Sacred Mountain, and to the south, almost attacked in front of the gate of the capital of the Holy Empire.

The final curtain call performance of his life will surely be rich and colorful, leaving an eternal memory on history, or vigorous, turning into the most brilliant fireworks before the end of the human race.

The political situation and the army will not move, but the first group of mages to go to the northern front recruited by the Royal Secret Law Order has officially left the imperial capital and headed for the tundra.

Previously, the military report that had been secretly promoted by Lancet and Crown Prince Meryl, communicated to Guò at the highest level meeting of the Northern Front Command, and finally sent to the Emperor's desk had already been approved by the Emperor, and the decree was conveyed back as quickly as possible.

The counteroffensive war in the tundra of Sana'a, I am afraid, has already begun.

The emperor constantly approved Chengshan's military declarations and documents every day, and he looked at every change in the war on the northern front.

Although the conscription order and further troop movements that were bound to be issued were still being planned, and no rumors were even released for anyone other than the most trusted ministers to know, but the emperor's spirit was becoming more and more rosy day by day, and he seemed to be truly glowing.

In Lin An's opinion, the emperor was now like a lion who smelled the smell of blood from the wounds of his prey, squinting his eyes and confusing his prey with the appearance of false sleep, but this appearance could not hide the real bloodthirsty fangs in the slightest.

As a well-known historian put it:

Every military fever king who is passionate about war and conquest hides a monster fed by human life under the surface of his human body.

The reason for this famous saying is that scholars have traced historical facts and collected specific numbers, and they are very surprised to find that in the three kingdoms of the mainland, many famous emperors have directly and indirectly created blood and human lives under their hands in just a few decades of reign, far exceeding many powerful archmages and golden sword masters whose lives are ten times that of the former.

- "The aristocracy is an inhuman cannibalistic monster, and the imperial power represents the most hideous and ugly of these monsters. ”

At this time, Abraham the Great was also gradually releasing this monster in his heart.

Fortunately, no matter who this monster's next target is, it will never be Lin An - the emperor can do without anyone at this time, but Lin An cannot be missing.

The anomaly was discovered the night after the ritual of the gods.

After the emperor who had been declared healthy by Lin An during the day fell asleep, the queen who was staying with him accidentally found that the emperor was motionless after falling asleep, did not turn over and snore, and couldn't even wake up shouting in his ear, if it wasn't for the steady breathing, the queen was almost not frightened crazy.

After that, Lin An was called over, but he felt that the emperor's life was stable and he couldn't find a problem.

So she had to stay with her all night, and the entire Bailu Danfeng Palace also spent the night in the restlessness of a few insiders, until the morning dawned, and the emperor woke up on time and learned of the situation he had seen the night before.

After that, for two or three days in a row, the emperor was full of energy during the day, and once he fell asleep, the whole person was like a living dead who only breathed, losing his senses to the outside world.

But when the next morning fell, the Emperor woke up on time, and was unaware of what had happened after falling asleep, and his health was unusual.

"It's not a matter of rituals."

Lin An and Master Don Quixote, as well as Master Antonio, who personally protected the emperor, observed for several days in a row, and combined with the many characteristics of the emperor's strange appearance, they had gradually gained the bottom of their hearts.

"The effect of the ritual is perfect, the balance in His Majesty's body has been achieved, and in a short period of time, I don't see any tendency to deteriorate."

Lin An pondered as he spoke, observing the expressions of the other two masters, seeing that they looked at each other, there was a look of clarity in their eyes, and they suddenly understood in their hearts that they also saw the real reason for the emperor's abnormality.

"Don't spit out, what else can't I accept now? Even if you tell me that tomorrow is the time of death. ”

The Emperor patted the pillow dissatisfied, swept between the three of them sternly and suspiciously, and finally looked at the bust on the wall on the right.

"Antonio, sue me what happened to my body."

The "Abraham the Great" in the portrait has a helpless face.

"陛xià, it's just speculation at the moment, a qiē hasn't been exactly ......"

"Then tell me your speculation first."

"Okay."

Master Antonio had no choice but to agree.

"Lady Rose is right, I don't think the problem is with your body, combined with the very different state of your sleep and when you are awake, I suspect that it may be some kind of situation where the union of soul and body is in trouble."

"Be specific."

"Simply put, your body and soul don't fit."

Lin An interjected and came in.

"Figuratively speaking, a rusty blade is inserted into a brand new scabbard, and even if it is roughly the right size, there are many times to scratch some rust chips."

"I see."

The emperor's demeanor was calm, and he was not anxious about the news, "So, it's my weakened soul that can't adapt to the current body?" ”

"You can understand it that way."

"When I was in the daytime, I didn't feel anything out of line with what you said."

If it weren't for all the people in the know, including the empress, all of whom swore by him, the emperor would almost wonder if Lin An and the others had secretly joined forces to deceive him.

This is not difficult to understand, after all, you tell a person who is full of energy, eats well and sleeps well for no reason, and he has a terminal illness, and the other party must only be nervous when you are nervous.

"I'm sorry, it was my negligence." Lin An took the initiative to admit the problem.

In fact, according to common sense, the survival time of a normal soul is far greater than the survival time of the body.

It is well known that when the physical body dies completely, the soul that has left the body is either taken to the kingdom of the gods who believe in the gods, or is extradited back to the world of the deceased by the messenger of the Eternal Sleep Guide, or it dissolves naturally.

All in all, it is a well-established truth that the soul lives far longer than the body.

And the emperor will have such a situation where the soul and flesh are incompatible, which is related to the fact that Lin An has extended his life for him once before.

If the goddess of nature has not yet fallen, or she has just fallen, and there are still remnants of the most core and mysterious divinity in divine power, then Lin An will not have a problem helping the emperor prolong the life of the aging body.

However, the divinity of the natural divine power has long since collapsed after the fall of the goddess, and the divinity contained in it has long been completely dissipated, which directly leads to the fact that Lin An's divine ritual can restore the aging of the emperor's body, but it cannot penetrate into the emperor's soul.

Therefore, the emperor's body and soul had actually begun to be out of sync long after the first divine ceremony.

This asynchrony is not noticeable at first, but over time it will undoubtedly cause both physical and mental attrition.

It's like stuffing your feet into ill-fitting shoes, of course, your feet will be worn by the shoes, but the shoes will also be damaged.

This is the reason why the first divine ritual Lin An originally expected to have a three-year effect, but it was less than two years, and the reason why he had to carry out the second time - the emperor's overdraft was part of the reason, but the lack of synchronization of the spirit and flesh was the fundamental reason.

At this time, the second divine ritual was carried out, and the disharmony between the spirit and flesh was further expanded.

After listening to Lin An's words, the emperor pondered for a while, as if searching for signs in his memory that matched what Lin An said.

"So, what are the consequences of the incompatibility of the spirit and the flesh? You originally expected a shorter time frame? ”

"It's hard to say."

Lin An thought for a while and said, "At present, the aging speed of your soul will not be ahead of your physical body. Except for the abnormality after falling asleep, it will not affect your normal activities, so the biggest problem is that the spirit flesh does not fit the increase of Cheng dù, which will definitely shorten the estimated period. ”

"How much shortened."

"Optimistic estimates, one-third."

The emperor's face was expressionless, and the corners of his wrinkled eyes jumped.

Master Don Quixote and Master Antonio were silent, the air almost condensed.

"Not optimistic?"

Lin An took a deep breath and said in a difficult voice:

"Two-thirds, even...... Shorter. ”

"That is, less than four months."

The fingertips pressed against each other, placed in the shape of a pyramid on the quilt above the thigh, the emperor calmly stated:

"Two days ago, you told me that I had at least twelve months to live, and two days later, it became less than four months."

Lin An bowed his head, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty." ”

She knew that the Emperor was not angry about not being able to live for eight more months, but because of the whole plan that had been disrupted after the time limit had been drastically shortened.

Don't say it's the emperor, it's Lin An, when he speculated this result in his heart, he also had a kind of anger and grievance in his heart, "The organs are exhausted, but people are still not as good as the sky"!

Less than four months, one hundred and twenty days, enough to do?

Perhaps with the most optimistic attitude, Pompey is likely to hear the news of the victory on the northern front.

But in such a short time, the emperor could at most arrange for the Saxon to ascend the throne, so that Pompey's nobles and commoners could accept this sudden news-

Maybe when the northern front sends back the good news that the Ice Plains Demon Clan has been defeated, they won't know that the emperor on the throne has changed.

This is the disadvantage of choosing a successor who is too young:

The Saxon is not yet twenty years old, and he is just getting involved in political affairs, and even the team left to him by the emperor has just become familiar.

If you change it to Byron and other older princes, it is possible that you will be able to take over and suppress the turmoil after the replacement in such a short time, but if you change it to Saxon, it is impossible to hope that those old foxes who are immersed in government affairs and have been engaged in politics all their lives will not despise this young monarch!
