The mountain breeze glides over the wooded ridges, and the morning light jumps down the Ping River......

A flotilla of sails and flags came from the other side of the river, and the calm and turquoise waters of the river reflected the people standing on the shore, and the procession of knights with guns and halberds stretched from the bank to the city gate, and at the end of the majestic city built by the water stood on the vast plain, like a giant looking down.

Hundreds of horns made of long ivory sounded the sound of distant trumpets, and the sound of drums in the middle circled over the banks of the river, as if to welcome the return of the wanderer.

The fleet was moored and docked, and Prince Odin, dressed in a golden lion, took the long sword held up by the ceremonial officer and raised it high-

"-Boom!"

"-Boom!"

"-Boom!"

The turret of the magic cannon was raised high, and the twenty-one cannon fires shook the earth, and the aftermath was like the rush of thousands of horses, and even the strongest Swater magic horse under Odin's crotch stepped back and forth a few steps uneasily, neighing lowly, and the guards of honor and the crowd gathered behind Odin were slightly disturbed.

The pedal between the side of the boat and the river bank was erected, figuratively saying that it was a pontoon bridge.

Appearing on the pedals first were Lancet, dressed in Stuart and holding a scepter, and his vassals, followed by the recipients and the black coffins they carried with a black lion flag on a white background.

Receiving flags, raising sticks, and saluting.

A pair of knights ran out of the ranks of knights on both sides, drove their horses under their crotches, and took the flags of different colors and emblems that had been passed from the hands of the medalists to the guard of honor.

"—Blue Iris, Duchy of Stuart!"

"—Blue Lion Banner, Merlin!"

……

Each flag is spaced at orderly intervals. Brightly coloured flags fluttered under the sturdy knights, and every once in a while the knights on horseback shouted loudly the family and glory that the banner represented, and spears and halberds lined up along the way.

When the first side ran to the place where the citizens near the city gate crowded to greet him, there was a shocking cheer at the city gate, and he shouted:

"—Blue Iris, Ulala!"

"—Blue Lion, Ulala!"

The roaring cry that shook the earth was like a drum, like a song, beating the ridges of the plains and echoing the sky.

Lenster and the others listened to the cries of the mountains coming from the city gates in the distance. Like a tsunami paving in, the merits of years of birth and death have become the glory of all eyes and generations, and no one can suppress the ups and downs of their hearts......

Many people's eyes are wet and red. Clenched fists.

If it weren't for the solemn ceremony in full view of everyone, and receiving strict guidance on ritual etiquette on the way home, I am afraid that most people would have difficulty suppressing their excitement and did not know what kind of action they would make.

Ranster also remembered his two years of war on the front line of the ice field, and his face flushed with excitement. The hand that handed over the sword to Odin also trembled a little, but he still calmed down and carried out the ritual:

"The sword is in its sheath, and the horse is returned to the mountain, and glory is dedicated to my king."

Odin, who represented the Great of Alabham, solemnly took the sword with both hands and said solemnly:

"Glory to me and to you. and to all my subjects of Merlin! ”

He raised his sword aloft:

"—Long live Merlin!"

Countless people responded, and the mountains and tsunamis rushed in all directions:

"—Long live Merlin! Banzai!! Banzai!!! ”

The magic cannon of the city wall roared again, and it was thrown into the air with a long wake. The drums beat sharply, the trumpets blew long, and the procession of honors and honorees boarded the car and slowly headed towards the city gate amid the music and mountain shouts that swung far into the sky.

……

Lin An was surrounded by the ranks of the honorees. Standing on the canopy-roofed chariot, he was overwhelmed by his tall companions. Dressed in a white mage robe, he looked no different from the other mage companions standing beside him.

The convoy was lined up in a long column surrounded by guards of honour, and her ceremonial chariot was at the back of the convoy, with the cars of His Royal Highness Odin and Archduke Rünster at the front, followed by the hearses of the deceased, and then the cars of the laureates.

The ceremonial chariot was made of golden nanmu, dark brown with a light Kanazawa, following Merlin's usual solemn and luxurious style without being too flashy, each car could accommodate ten people, due to the order of the ceremony and different etiquette, the honorees of different identities were separated, John They were not in Lin An's car, Lin An was surrounded by Andre, Sidney and James and other mage companions.

Before Lin An's ceremonial chariot drove into the city gate, the mage in the car had already heard the roar and tsunami of the mountains that could make people's hearts stop through the city wall.

The boiling voices could not be isolated by spells, and as soon as they entered the city gate, Lin An immediately knew the reason why the Hebrew baron and the court officials told them not to use spells.

"The emperor has a magic circle to suppress magical power?" Lin An was taken aback.

James couldn't hear her voice in the boiling cheers, but he could see Lin An's surprised look and the shape of his mouth from a close distance......

He nodded to Lin An and raised his eyebrows, as if asking Lin An if he was surprised.

Andre was also surprised when he felt the magic being suppressed under Linna's reminder, and then calmed down.

"It is said that the imperial capital is built on a huge ruin, suppressing the power of cultivators within the influence of the ruins, this is still the periphery of the imperial capital, and the suppression is not strong, the closer to the central palace, the greater the suppression.

It is said that there is an absolute forbidden area in the center of Miyagi, and the name Pompey is rumored to be derived from the name of that ruin, which is also said to be a city. ”

Andre said loudly in Lin An's ear, halfway through speaking, he changed it to a communication technique, and then Lin An found that the use of level 0 spells was really not strong, although the consumption was doubled, but it could finally cast spells.

She nodded slightly, understanding that when she wanted to use the Ignorance Spell today, the Hebrew Baron would stop her, because the Ignorance Spell was a second-level spell, and the pressure of casting the ban must not be the same as that of a Grade 0 spell.

James, who saw the two talking next to him, smiled a little, and Lin An understood that he was laughing at his loneliness, but he didn't care:

She hadn't been to Pompeii, and unlike the natives of them, who were accustomed to it, and everything she knew about places she hadn't been to came from books.

And Pompey is clearly not like Atlantis, which is a city dominated by mages. You can feel free to put rumors such as the Mage Tower on paper and become knowledge, but the military arrangements of the imperial capital obviously cannot be disseminated publicly, even if it is something that everyone who has been to the imperial capital knows.

As the fragrance of flowers gradually intensifies, the capital behind the city walls seems to be transformed into a world of flowers, and the enthusiasm of the people and the smell of sweat are mixed in to create a lively atmosphere of the festival.

On both sides of the avenue where the convoy of honor walked, countless citizens were congested.

From Lin An's point of view, below is a dense group of young girls and young men with different hair colors clustered in the front, and citizens are throwing flowers and vegetables. Every ceremonial car passed, countless flowers and cheers cleared the way, and fruits and vegetables rained down on the roof.

The male mage standing on the periphery also received many embroidered handkerchiefs and flower clusters from the girls. There were even enthusiastic girls who threw intimate clothes and small notes with words written on them.

"The citizens of the imperial capital are just different from other places," Krum turned back to his companion in the car and smiled, "How enthusiastic the girls here are, and there are people who want to spend ** together!" ”

Everyone laughed.

Not only that, but the same is true in the ceremonial carriages before and after. The ice fields have been held for several years and have made great achievements, and now is their time.

The enthusiasm of countless people and the fragrance of flowers are blended together, and the mountain breath is constantly in the ears, and anyone who is in it can't help but be in the center of such an atmosphere, and even Lin An'an jumps a lot faster. When he glanced out, he was occasionally glanced at by the citizens, and someone pointed to the car where Lin An was and shouted, and the banging sound on the roof became more intensive. Even the car shook from time to time, as if it was overwhelmed.

Lin An in the car was shaken and pulled by James next to him, Nikita teased loudly: "Don't show your face again, otherwise our car will overturn." ”

The other mages who heard Nikita's words clearly laughed.

"Ann. Come over a little. ”

Andre hurriedly pulled Lin An to his side, and secretly glanced at James, who was the first to strike. James didn't care either, watching Andre protect Lin An by his side, with a faint smile on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.

Lin An was also absent-minded and didn't pay attention to what was happening around him.

Soon after entering the city gate, Lin An noticed several fluctuations along the way, but two of them obviously had strong spiritual power, but those fluctuations were too vague and were not discovered by others.

This ceremony was a grand gathering of people in Merlin, and of course it was heavily guarded in private, and even dispatched ** divisions and Golden Sword Saint-level powerhouses, Lin An was not surprised.

However, the spell-casting monitoring of those ** masters shrouded most of the area of the imperial capital, and it can also be inferred from this that it must be a spell above level four, which means that there are methods or tools that are not prohibited and suppressed, and the number is not too few.

Thinking about it, this speculation is also a matter of course, if the prohibition of the zhì magic circle cannot be controlled, then the effect of the prohibition will be reduced by half, just for the indiscriminate prohibition of the ancestors, the ancestors of Merlin do not have to set the imperial capital here.

In this way, it is indeed very likely that the original site of Pompey was once a ruin, and this secret is probably not known to everyone, as long as forces like the Azure Lion and the Hidden Inheritance can know the inside story.

Although Andre just said it out loud, the surrounding environment was too noisy, and Lin An estimated that except for himself who was shouted into his ear, even James didn't hear what he said clearly, otherwise he wouldn't have looked so relaxed-

Because when Lin An thought of the ruins of the original site of the imperial capital, he also further thought of the flying boat that destroyed the legendary powerhouse under the battle, Lin An had never heard of a flying boat that could bind the legendary powerhouse for a few days and nights, and Lin An knew that the flying boat was a relic product, and as long as a ruin the size of a city could accommodate such a huge flying boat.

It was precisely because of this thought that he couldn't help but be a little distracted, so Lin An didn't pay attention to the surrounding environment and was almost shaken down by the momentum.

No one paid attention to this little episode, but they didn't know that Lin An's moment exposed a small gap in the encirclement of her companions, and a noble child who ran to the crowd of civilians with nothing to do saw the delicate face of the black hair and black eyes in the gap, and almost fell off the horse.

"Yelia, what are you doing, do you want to be trampled on by these civilians?" Seeing his thrilling move, his companion hurriedly reprimanded.

Yelia, who was reprimanded, ignored it, only the shocking face was circulating in his mind, he almost doubted whether he was mistaken, and when he hurriedly went to look for the ceremonial car, he found that the car had long passed, and he was blocked in the crowd, unable to move, so anxious that he whipped again and again, opening the civilians crowded nearby, and the scene was even more chaotic for a while.

"Get out of the way, you untouchables, get out of the way! Beauty, beauty! Wait for me! ……”

The guard of honor of the convoy in front of him was coming to the turning point of the avenue, and Odin, who was riding on the black pure-blooded Swater magic horse, noticed that there was a slight confusion behind him, and glanced back, his sword eyebrows, which were as straight as two long swords, frowned, and before he could ask, there was already a guard to report:

"Your Highness, it seems that some noble children have beaten people and caused some chaos......"

Odin's face was slightly cold.

"Arrest people, beat them with twenty military sticks, and then let their families take them back - if there is a similar situation today, they will do the same, and the strict ones will be thrown to the White Lion Legion and let them grind for half a month."

The guards retreated without any distinction, and quite a few important ministers behind Odin heard his order, but none of them were discolored, and Randster, who was parallel to Odin, turned his head and nodded with a slight smile.
