Chapter 12 Identity
"If you want to figure this out......" Jiexi stopped talking, and finally looked at her with determination, "you have to know who you are and what you can do." Or what is your role. ”
Robin was slightly stunned, startled by her eyes.
Who is my identity?
And what can I do?
What does it do?
A smile immediately appeared in Robin's eyes.
Very good, Jesus.
You finally understand what I want.
What she said just now really stood in his position.
It can help Robin to analyze the current form clearly, and see the essence behind the fog, which is more direct and useful than superfluous good words or lies.
This is also the only way to achieve effective communication between the two.
Very good, Jesus.
That's what I want.
"Then, Jiexi, please give me some guidance." Robin's tone also became humble.
This change of attitude flattered the king's courtier, who wore gold-rimmed glasses.
But she also immediately understood that the Lord Robin in front of her did not always maintain an attitude of facing the enemy.
He didn't always close himself off and let people into his heart.
Robin, waiting for a conversation of equality, mutual respect, and thinking for him.
This young man summoned by Saiya seems to be self-conscious, lonely and sensitive, but in fact, he is still a stranger who has just arrived here, and this world should be full of danger and fear for him.
It's a pity that the people around him are paralyzed by the aura of his Chosen One and don't realize it.
Robin, like a newborn, needs a guide.
Jiexi was uneasy in her heart.
I don't know if she'll be able to take on this responsibility.
However, there is a strength in this person that makes her inexplicably full of confidence.
It was from him, without any of the Light of the Chosen One, stronger than all the Light she had ever seen.
Jeeki took a deep breath, her chest heaving.
The crisp cold air poured into her mouth and nose, calming her boiling blood a little.
Jess smiled and bowed slightly to Robin.
"Your identities are now two." She explained, "Number one, you're from Itnell. Therefore, this identity is destined for your subordinate and hostile relationship.
You belong to Itnell, and your enemies are destined to be other nations.
The most formidable enemies are Secorid in the northwest and López in the northeast. ”
The enemy of the state is the enemy of the people.
Robin nodded.
In this way, the previous trip to Saikred was like returning from a tiger's den.
"So, even if it's in China, they won't let me go?" Robin looked at her quizzically, "How did they do it?" But this is the territory of Etnell......"
But he suddenly thought of something, looked up in horror, and looked at Jeong-hee in disbelief.
"Has the other party's power penetrated so deeply?"
If the enemies he encountered before could be seen, then what Jiexi hinted at just now were those chess pieces that were manipulated by major forces in the dark.
"No," Jiexi shook her head and nodded again, "Not much, not too much." Like the eyeliner and spy agencies we have in their country, they have planted their pawns in their kingdoms. We know some, and at the same time we don't know. ”
Robin took a deep breath, and an invisible chessboard appeared in his brain.
Each invisible big hand, a chess piece draped in a different color flag, looms over it.
And this is only the tip of the iceberg of the situation he has to face.
The night is darker.
The fog is getting thicker.
A white mist was cast on Jiexi's glasses.
"But you don't have to worry too much. The hidden threads we have buried will definitely enable us to get the information in the first place, and they will cast a safe barrier for us. ”
She lowered her head, took out a handkerchief from her bosom, and wiped her glasses carefully.
When she wasn't wearing glasses, Robin noticed that this seemingly gentle lady actually had an unusually resolute face.
It seemed that standing in front of him was no longer a civilian official, but a warrior.
"Anywhere in this barrier there is a breach, we will be aware of it.
After that, the arming of the kingdom and the power of the Divine Council will provide you with more solid protection.
Itnell's identity isn't strong enough to put you in danger. ”
Jiexi said unhurriedly, her big turquoise eyes shining.
"What really puts you in danger is your second identity, and it's your most important identity –
The Chosen One. ”
The Chosen One......
Robin's heart skipped a beat.
"The new life in each of our nations comes from the fruit of the tree of life. And only the Divine Messenger can cultivate the Tree of Life. She put her glasses back on her face, her eyes glinting, "Once you leave the Divine Messenger, the Tree of Life will wither." You know, a long, long time ago, there were originally thirteen main trees in this world.
Now, there are only seven left. ”
"Seven?" Robin frowned.
"Each of the three human kingdoms of the Western Continent has one—
Kingdom of Itney.
Kingdom of López.
Kingdom of Sekorid.
Then there is the Elven Realm of the Eastern Continent, but with the attack of the Holy Blood Empire more than three hundred years ago, they have been destroyed and become part of the Holy Blood Empire.
So the Holy Blood Empire has two main trees. “
No wonder, Robin thought to himself, maybe this was one of the reasons why the Holy Blood Empire was so powerful.
If there is a strong ability to reproduce as a guarantee, it is indeed possible to wage war many times in a short period of time.
At the same time, he had to admire these countries in the Western Continent, who were able to defeat them in two bloody battles.
"Then there is one of the Windwing Dynasty, the Windwings have become the biggest hidden danger of Itnell on our southwestern border, they have great strength and body, and their shadows can be seen everywhere in the western wasteland.
You'll learn about that later.
The last one is in the northernmost extreme cold land—
The Icebone Wasteland, as well as the environment that gave birth to the terrible Frost Giants, existed as a tribe, but due to the harsh living environment, the population was very sparse, and they relied on plundering from the kingdoms of López and Sekorid to obtain resources. ”
Speaking of this, Jiexi seemed to remember something and sneered.
"In a way, they're our friends."
"The enemy of the enemy is the friend...... Robin laughed silently, "So the Windwingers are also friends with Sekoride and López?" ”
"Robin, I have to say, you are indeed very smart." Jess admired his enemies and friends with a smile in her eyes, "However, I think if you look at the map, you can see that the Windwingers are actually just friends of López, because they are next to Sekorid and Itneyl, and they are both our problem and Sekorid's trouble.
More often than not, they're a nuisance to Secreed. “
Jiexi smiled slyly.
I see.
Robin nodded.
"When you get back to the Imperial Capital, I think you'll have more time to learn about all this." Jiexi said softly.
"Hmm."
……
Imperial capital, Haoyue City.
Temple of Eternal Life.
Inside the white curtain, a weak body suddenly sat up from the bed.
Reflecting the starlight outside the house, her long, silvery-white hair fell from her shoulders and hung down to the velvet quilt, burying one of her faces.
The owner of the Temple of Itnell, the current oracle -
Calista woke up from her nightmare, her face covered in sweat.
Her silver pupils shone in the darkness, and she lost focus for a while, as if she was still immersed in the dream she had just had.
Calista instinctively opened her mouth and made a weak voice—
"Arce."
"Yes, Lord God."
A clear voice came from the empty room.
But there was not half a figure in sight.
It was as if the sound came from the endless void.
Or maybe the owner of the voice is an invisible ghost.
But—
The voice was completely different from the one she was familiar with.
Calista's pupils shrank violently, and instinctively touched her fingers under the pillow.
There lay a dagger calmly.
When her fingers touched the coldness above, Calista suddenly calmed down.
She suddenly remembered—
The loyal guard who guarded her day and night, the legendary archer known as the Weepers, had been sent out by her.
The person who replaced her as the patron saint of the night now was just her young child.
"Little Arce. Is that you? ”
"Yes, Lord God." The other party's voice rang out in the room, and it was impossible to figure out her exact location.
It seems ethereal and lonely.
"You can rest assured that I am here." Little Arce said bluntly, "I'm not going to let anyone step in here." ”
Calista laughed softly.
This little Arce really has extraordinary courage and extraordinary strength, as the legend says.
Moreover, this kind of self-confidence revealed from the bones is quite motherly.
She remembered that Buffy Arce when she was young seemed to be similar.
Calista lay back on the bed, put her hands flat on her chest, and closed her eyes.
But a heart was pounding.
I can't rest for a long time.
I don't know why, this inexplicable heartbeat always makes her feel a little scared.
When was the last time......
It was then that Calista suddenly opened her eyes.
A cold sense of fear spread throughout his body.
It occurred to her that it was sixteen years ago, when she had first met the man known as Sirius, one of the three forbidden spellmasters of the Blasphemous Order.
