Chapter XXVII
"It's so cold, of course I'm sleeping at home." Raven gave Robin an annoyed look, then raised his hand to rub the shaggy hair at the back of his head.
The dark circles on her face were very heavy, and she knew at a glance that she had gone to Huatiandi again last night.
Raven waved his hand and left through the gate of the training ground.
Robin and Kaye looked at each other, then shook their heads.
"I don't see anything."
Her usual lazy and lascivious appearance is very different from the scheming and uncertain Raven described by Matilda.
Which one is the real you?
Raven.
……
Robin thought about it and felt that this incident was beyond his ability, so he had to return to the temple and consult Calista.
After all, she has lived for hundreds of years, and she will always see it better.
"Instead of worrying about that, you should think about how to improve your abilities." Calista said lightly.
"Don't you worry at all, after I learn to take care of the sacred tree, you may be assassinated." Robin looked at her with a frown.
"Hmph." Calista raised her eyebrows slightly, and said disdainfully, "I've lived long enough anyway." Whoever wants to come will come. ”
"......" Robin was dumbfounded by her.
"You're relaxed, what should I do?" Robin reluctantly said, "What about the other clergy?" ”
Calista glanced at Robin, but didn't speak.
She spun her wheelchair and slid into the passage at the back of the temple.
Robin slowly followed her, holding the wheelchair's handles with both hands.
"If you want to solve a problem, you have to find the root of the problem." Calista stretched out her right hand and beckoned a birdie.
It looks similar to a parakeet.
She stroked the bird's hair with her fingers and laughed happily.
"What's the root of the problem?"
Robin now feels like he's completely underwhelmed by his brainpower.
"Matilda wants to enlist you to be her aid and free her from the king's control. What about the position of His Majesty the King? Calista asked.
"I guess they want to win me over." Robin said, "From the Frost Fortress to the present, although she didn't open her mouth, it seems that this is the meaning of the release. ”
"It seems to be," Calista smiled slightly, "what hasn't happened, always just speculation." ”
"......" Robin thoughtfully said.
"And isn't it obvious what you just said?" Calista laughed, "The root of the problem is you. ”
"Me?"
"You're at the center of their fight." Calista glanced at him, "Whoever controls you controls the future of the kingdom." ”
Robin nodded.
That's what Jiexi said before.
"Mattida doesn't know Olivia, and you don't." Calista said lightly, "The current King His Majesty was brought up by me. I know her better than anyone. ”
Robin's eyes lit up, and he waited quietly for Calista's words.
"She has a lot of means, she has a lot of determination, she has wisdom and courage." A look of relief appeared on Calista's face, as if she was complimenting her own child, "At the same time she is kind, very atmospheric, and clean and above board." ”
Robin nodded, "This is a natural king-king. ”
"Yes," seemed to be very pleased with Robin's precise diction, and Calista laughed happily.
She raised her wrist, and the parrot flapped its wings from above and flew out.
"Born King." "That's what she is. So you get the idea? ”
"Understood? Understand what? Robin looked at her puzzled.
"There's no need for Olivia to do that." Calista laughed, "If, as Matilda said, Olivia's purpose is to control the kingdom by controlling you after I die, and to take the divine power into her hands, then she shouldn't have done anything during this time." ”
"What do you mean?" Robin's eyes were clouded with a fog.
"If what Matilda said is true," Calista glanced back at Robin, a smile in her eyes, "what is your attitude towards Olivia now?" ”
"It's dangerous." Robin honestly said what was in her heart, "She wants to win me over to achieve the goal of controlling the temple, and she doesn't seem to be satisfied with just harvesting a puppet Chosen One. ”
"So, the result isn't good news for Olivia at the moment, is it?" Calista asked with a smile in her eyes, "The more she tries to win you over, the more she pushes you to the opposite side." ”
It was at this moment that a bright light suddenly flashed in Robin's brain when he heard Calista's words.
"What do you mean......"
"It's too troublesome, and it doesn't fit her style." Calista frowned, "Olivia wants you to truly recognize her, so she won't use such a small means." Moreover, as a natural king, she never minded using iron-fisted means. ”
A cold aura flashed in her eyes, "The puppet chosen one who succumbs to power, as long as he can continue to cultivate the Tree of Life for the kingdom, what can't he do?" ”
Robin listened to her words and couldn't help but gasp.
"So, does it matter whether Raven is loyal to the King or me, what is Mattida's intentions, and what His Majesty thinks?"
Calista glanced at Robin disapprovingly.
The latter was slightly stunned.
Before Robin could speak, Calista continued, "No matter how the situation around them changes, how complicated their battle is, and how many intrigues are hidden in the open and covert, there is one way to deal with them that will always work. ”
"What?" Robin stared at Calista.
"Raise your strength."
Calista said lightly.
It was like an electric light, suddenly splitting the dark fog in Robin's heart.
"Only when we are truly strong, the temple is strong enough, and the power of the Divine Society is strong enough, so that others will not bully us. We also have the courage and ability to cope with everything. ”
Calista took a deep breath, "You must know that your individual power is limited, and you can only merge into it, merge with the entire Divine Society, and lead them to become stronger, so that we can gain a foothold and continue." ”
Yes.
Robin suddenly understood why Calista was where she was today.
Until then, he had always done the wrong thing, that is, he was always pursuing personal and personal security and development, but forgetting that the power of the group is the most powerful.
"It's not just that." Robin smiled slightly, "We are not only clergy, but also thousands of believers who believe in the God of Life. ”
Calista was stunned for a moment, a satisfied smile on her lips.
"Hmph. If only you had thought about it earlier. ”
"Doesn't it take your guidance to figure it out?"
"Hmph, I didn't learn anything else from Raven, but I learned a lot about the ability to steer the rudder and pat the horse's ass when I saw the wind."
Robin pursed his lips and didn't speak.
At this point, Calista was silent for a moment, then looked up and said, "After the Chosen One Ritual is over, I will let you go through some trials of the local gods. ”
"Okay." Robin couldn't help but be a little excited.
"Before you do, you'll have to find a way to learn more from Raven." Calista smiled slightly, "Regardless of her position, she is still very competent as a magic teacher, we are running out of time, you have to improve yourself as soon as possible." ”
