The empire has lost its master, and a princess is buried in the land she loves.

In the midst of the chaos, Brando quietly retreated, one moment he was at the center of the maelstrom, but the next he was a marginal man. Not many people noticed him—just an Eruin nobleman—only the old prime minister stooped down tremblingly, picked up the ring from the ground with his hand, and looked back at him, his cloudy eyes full of mixed emotions.

Brando came to Akane's side. He raised his head, his gaze swept over Charles, Medisa and the others, his heart was full of emotion, life is so simple, often the next moment, you don't know who else will accompany you down.

He was worried about the safety of Roman and Hipamela, and the Silver Queen's last words brought a deep sense of foreboding over him, like a gloomy ghost.

Why did the Imperial Empire invite a small merchant by name on Eruin's envoy list?

In terms of business talent, Roman is just emerging, and in terms of capital, she is far inferior to Ampesel's big chamber of commerce. Brando then remembered that there were indeed doubts on the list, but he didn't notice it at all, and his heart was full of self-blame.

However, he didn't think about how inconspicuous this suspicion actually was. Tony Gel and Eruin are no different from the Empire, both are inconspicuous little places, @± but the latter has a lord who has defeated the Sanctuary of Fire, and the Empire has reason to be curious about the one that happened in this land.

The crowd moved slowly, but bypassed Brando and Akane, the two of the Silver Queen's deaths could be regarded as accomplices, but at this moment, no one dared to mention it, and the nobles seemed to have forgotten about it.

The old prime minister didn't say a word, how could others dare to act on his behalf? Some people are even unable to protect themselves. Who dares to guarantee that the courtiers and families promoted during the reign of the Silver Queen will not be liquidated after the eldest son of the emperor succeeds to the throne, and it seems that the prime minister is about to return to power.

A small piece of pure land appeared in the middle of the crowd, and Akane stood silently beside Brando with the Azure Spear in her hand, as if she had found a familiar position.

Like a silent watchman.

Brando turned to the latter and said, "Akane, what about Miss Ovina?" ”

Akane paused. Ovina's voice came from the Azure Spear: "I'm here, is there anything wrong with Your Excellency?" ”

"Miss Owena, you know what Her Majesty is doing, right?"

"There are many answers to this question, and I have to consider how to answer it depending on which capacity Your Excellency is speaking to me." Owena replied earnestly.

"Does it make a difference?"

"Of course, if you speak to me as an ancestor, then I will tell you that she wants to reopen the Council of Truth; If you were to ask me as Lord of Fir or Count Toniger, I would have no comment. ”

"Ancestors? The Council of Truth? Brando thought of the many descriptions of ancestors in Cangzhi's poems. The word sometimes refers to the people of the gods, and sometimes to the followers of the kings of the ancients, the first nobles of the ancients after the war of the Sages, but the people of the ancestors that Owena refers to are more of a proper noun, because the existence of the people of the gods is not much more 'first' than her.

As for the Council of Truth, he had never heard of it, he had heard of the Society of Truth, but he did not know what the connection between the two was.

Ovina emerged from the Azure Spear as if she were an unseen ghost floating in mid-air. The people around her turned a blind eye to her presence. Her delicate little face was the same as that of a certain merchant, and she glanced at Brando. He said: "The ancestors are relative to the primordial species and the mixed-blood gods, this question is a bit complicated for you, but you just need to know that they are all gods, the first-born species is the collective name of the first three generations of bloodlines, and the half-blood gods are the descendants of the gods who later relied on artificial cultivation and natural reproduction, as for the ancestors......"

She paused: "Legend has it that they were the ones who created the world with Martha. But I don't know where they came from. ”

"Then you say that I am an ancestor?" Brando asked.

Owena floated up, circled Brando left and right, and said in a somewhat confused tone: "The aura on your body is a little strange, although there is no doubt that your bloodline is the people of black iron. As far as I know, most of the people who have the authority of the Truth Society are the first three generations of the first generation. But you are a little special, you still have the breath of Gaia's will, only the ancestors and Martha-sama would be born from Gaia's will. ”

Brando didn't capture the point of the remark, he was drawn to something else: "You say the truth will?" He remembered the handsome humans he had seen in his dreams, dressed in black and red robes.

"The Truth Society is the central body of the Divine People, and the leaders of the Divine People, the Tribunal, the World Tree Organization, the Earth Legion, and the members of the Divine People within Gaia's will are all directly under its leadership."

"The Tribunal, the World Tree, the Earthlegion, and the Will of Gaia?" Brando found that there were more and more terms he didn't understand, except for the World Tree Organization, he had never heard of several other terms in the game, but after coming to this world, he learned about the composition of the Earth Legion from the side.

"This is not easy to explain, besides, the bloodline of the gods and people in my time has withered, and a lot of knowledge inheritance about the previous eras has been lost, but you can understand it as the existence of the Temple of the Gods and Valhalla in mortal myths and legends, and the gods and people perform their own duties."

"So you said that my authority comes from the Society of Truth, is it because I am a traveling mage?" Brando thought about it, it seemed that there was only this possibility, and the other party also said that his bloodline was only the bloodline of black iron, and the only thing in his body that could not be explained by the game system seemed to be this brigade mage system.

Unexpectedly, Owena shook her head: "The members of the Truth Society are all traveling mages, but the traveling mages are not necessarily members of the Truth Society, but you are not wrong about one thing, the top traveling mages are often members of the Truth Society, and the traveling mages are the authority given by Martha to the administrators, and this authority was originally exclusive to the Truth Society and the arbitration tribunal, and then it became more and more detailed, and even some secondary gods could become traveling mages." The Odin you're familiar with, Tumen, and Tracy Man are such traveling mages. ”

Brando was almost stunned when he heard this, and he forgot even about the previous question: "Odin, Tumen, and Tracy Man are not the top traveling mages?" So what kind of person is considered the top traveling mage? ”

Owena smiled contemptuously, "Even my previous master, the Azure Knight, can only be regarded as a qualified traveling mage, as I said, only members of the Truth Society can be regarded as the top traveling mage. ”

"But—"

"No, I know you're weird. However, you only need to know the origin of the first generation of traveling mages to understand, although my knowledge is only a small part of the six eras, I can responsibly tell you that the first generation of traveling mages is the same group of people who created this world with Martha. ”

Brando's whole person was stunned, and he couldn't even say half a sentence for a while, the person who created the zào world with Martha, isn't that the same as the creator?

He only now understood what kind of concept Owena was talking about as a top-notch traveling mage.

Owena continued: "Before the Sixth Age. The traveling mages can easily destroy the world and recreate the world, and they have also escaped the previous twilight comings in this way......"

Brando didn't have much doubt about the Sixth Age in Ovina's mouth, although this sentence was subversive for ordinary scholars. In the more common chronicles on the continent, scholars divide what they know of Vagond's past into three eras, one is the Chaos Age, and the other is the Dark Age, and the Chaos Age and the D.R. Age are watersheds when the Azure Spear shatters the sky. Before that, there was Chaos, which was dedicated to the era when the Dark Dragons ruled the land.

After the Battle of the Sages. The Dark Ages are over, and the continent has also entered the First Age, so these three eras are the general understanding of scholars at the moment, if anyone has six epochs left before the Azure Spear shatters the sky in front of these people, then he will definitely be able to enjoy the gaze of a madman.

However, Brando already knew the story before dusk fell in the game, and he didn't know how many times it was. But at least Owena wouldn't be surprised when he uttered a term like the Sixth Age.

He was silent for a moment, deciding not to dwell on his origins, and instead asked, "Then the Council of Truth, is there any connection with the truth?" ”

"The so-called Council of Truth is actually the Supreme Council of God's people. All the people of God are members of the Council, but this Council is initiated by the Society of Truth, and the members of the Society of Truth are equivalent to the elders of the Council, so this Council is called the Council of Truth. ”

As if understanding that Brando still had a problem, she went on to explain: "Before the age of mortals, the Council of Truth was permanent, but because of something...... This parliament was abolished after the fall of Babel Fortress, leaving only one emergency bill, the so-called Article 172. ”

"Article 172?"

"Yes, the full name is Article 172 of the United Law, which stipulates that if one of them initiates the reopening of the Council of Truth in the presence of three Divine People at the same time, but this is only a temporary bill, and the reconvened Council of Truth is only one of the votes, which does not mean anything."

"So what's the use of it?" Brando vaguely understood what was going on.

"Mainly used to decide some urgent issues, after all, the gods will not know that after the sixth war, our lineage will suffer so much that it is almost on the verge of collapse, that the half-blood gods have almost completely lost their knowledge of the past, and the Council of Truth has become an ornament."

"In other words, the Silver Queen somehow got the legacy of the past, or at least some fragment, of the existence of the Council of Truth," Brando thought to himself, most likely from the final battlefield, or from Odin's legacy, and he continued, "So she wants to reopen the Council?" ”

Owena nodded: "According to the provisions of Law 172, if she gathers three members of the meeting, then Akane and I will have to negotiate her request - Akane's inheritance comes from the Azure Knights, and the Azure Knights are the leaders of the Arbitration Gate, and our authority is to arbitrate and review the issues of the gods-"

"Then it seems that the Silver Queen should know this too, otherwise she wouldn't think so highly of Akane."

Owena agreed, and she nodded, "But the power to open up how much authority is in the hands of Akane and me, this meeting can be a meeting with the highest authority or a discussion with the lowest authority." ”

"Permissions? What is a permission? ”

"Mortals have a lot of power, and you should understand that mortals can't directly draw magic except for witches who can draw the power of darkness and use it. However, in fact, the whole of our world is actually based on order, and it is the law of Matha Guòtimat that restricts the magic of chaos, using the elements to reorganize to form the material world as we see it, and of course energy also follows this constraint-"

Ovena stared at the crowd in the courtyard and said slowly, "The knights and wizards you see have power that comes from their knowledge of the law, and their knowledge of the law determines how much energy they can mobilize from the network of order, and what kind of energy. ”

"That's wizards and priests, but isn't the physical power that swordsmen have in their hands......" Brando wondered, wizards mobilized magic through guò laws, priests mobilized holy spells through guò prayers, and elements mobilized elements through the laws of swordsmen, these can be understood by him, but which law did the swordsmen mobilize?

You must know that before the elements, the power of the swordsmen is pure ** power.

"Don't swordsmen have to go through the elemental realm?" Owena asked rhetorically: "What's more, your muscles, your hair, your bones, and the bodily fluids in your body are all made up of the elements and laws that make up this world, and your ** strength also has to follow the physical laws of this world, isn't it?" ”

She pointed to the court knights: "These people are often lucky, because for mortals, the process of comprehending the laws is quite long, and the people of Black Iron are born without even being able to grasp the power of order at all, and can only learn and understand through the day after tomorrow, and slowly understand the many laws and orders that exist in our world, and a considerable number of people can only be ordinary people all their lives." ”

"And for the races of gold and silver, they are often stronger than many adult individuals among mortals from the moment of birth, is it because of the knowledge that comes from the embryo? Some races may have such abilities, but most of the gold and silver people are still about the same fertility as mortals, so where does their power come from? ”

Ovina looked at him and asked word by word: "This is the authority, it is the innate authority given to the superior beings by the rules of tiamat, they do not need to learn, because the understanding of the law is integrated into the bloodline, as if it is an instinct, and even for some high-ranking beings, they themselves are synonymous with order." ”

"For example, the Divine People—"
