Although there was a lot of commotion, because of the blockade of news, Xudra's matter did not spread to the town, and after that conversation with Arthur, Randy also came over to tell Zhou Lie, hoping that he would not spread the news of Xudra.

Because he promised Arthur first, Zhou Lie just coped with the past, and because of his identity, the other party had no choice.

The next trip was basically smooth sailing, walking with Vivian and Arthur, Zhou Lie had to say goodbye to Layla and the merchants, Layla was very excited and said that Zhou Lie wanted to find a fun place in Babylon first, and then take herself to play.

It takes half a month to travel from Rhine Town to the royal capital of Babylon, and there are not many soldiers guarding it, so it didn't slow down the trip, Zhou Lie was not idle, out of curiosity and other factors, he basically discussed with Arthur the body of their beast god soldiers all the way, after all, they don't change their bodies, and they also have physical qualities beyond mortals, if they can master one or two martial arts skills, can they surpass those grandmaster-level masters.

Arthur also became interested after listening to Zhou Lie's initial introduction to Oriental martial arts, but after thinking about it carefully and learning one move and two styles himself, he found that this was not suitable for him.

Different from the magic that borrows external power, Oriental martial arts are different from fighting skills, in addition to having higher and more useful moves than ordinary fighting skills, it is more important but the exploration of martial arts practitioners for their own strength, everything is people-oriented, all power comes from itself, it is said that the most profound martial arts master, can unite people and weapons, transcendent things, this kind of mysterious and mysterious theory, not to mention Arthur, is Zhou Lie's own level, can not understand, can only roughly talk to Arthur according to his own feelings.

But the answer he heard from Arthur made him feel disappointed, it seemed that because of the change in his body, no matter how he exercised, his physical strength and strength would not be further enhanced, and on the contrary, if he did not exercise, he would not weaken, so the martial arts in the East they could learn at most a similar shape, and if they couldn't learn Shen Yun, it would be meaningless.

Although Zhou Lie said that he was just a half bucket of water, but he couldn't stop Arthur's enthusiasm, and the way to walk in with a person was to talk to him about the things he liked, and Zhou Lie found out that Arthur was actually a complete martial idiot.

He used to be a knight, he once pursued the ultimate swordsmanship all his life, and it was precisely because he was a knight who swore to dedicate himself to the country that he accepted this dangerous transformation plan.

Arthur, who was discussing with Zhou Lie at this moment, seemed to have returned to the days when he was still in the Knight Academy, studying and communicating with a group of friends, and that time was his most unforgettable and precious time.

At first, Zhou Lie was there to explain to Arthur, but later it became Arthur and he told him about his previous dreams, as if returning to the era of hope and possibility when he was a teenager.

"You have things you want to do, and I envy you. Zhou Lie listened to Arthur speak, and suddenly said such a sentence for no reason.

"After all, you will know that in this world, men will one day encounter things that must be done by themselves, and at that time you will find the meaning of your own existence. ”

"And when did you find out?"

Arthur raised his head, was silent for a long time, seemed to be caught in a memory, and then said in a soft voice, "I met Xie Li and was determined to protect her. This was the first time Zhou Lie had seen Arthur's face so gentle, which gave him goosebumps.

On this day, after the daily discussions, everyone camped on a hill in Bauna.

"Look, that's Babylon over there. Arthur pointed to the distance and said, behind the vast plain, there was a mountain of bullying, and by the sea was a great city, which was Babylon.

"I have been there, and I was in Babylon for a month, and then your king thought I was in the way, and sent me to Osling. Zhou Lie said with a smile, feeling very happy when he thought of this oolong thing.

Following Arthur's fingers, Babylon is a majestic city, it is built by the sea, the east is the ice sea, the north is a cliff, relying on the double natural hazards, this is a city that is no less difficult to conquer, no less than Oslin.

The last time Zhou Lie came here was by sea, and when he left for Oslin, he also arrived by water, which was the first time Zhou Lie saw the full picture of the western capital from land.

"Tomorrow is coming. Zhou Lie looked at this majestic city, and was full of emotion in his heart, not knowing how the other party would face him.

Early the next morning, everyone set off, and the team entered the city gate in half a day, the presence of Randy and Vivian made the group quickly pass the inspection at the door, without any welcome queue and personnel, Vivian and Arthur had to submit a report to their superiors and find a doctor to heal after entering the city, and Zhou Lie separated, and Randy took Zhou Lie directly to the palace.

After Zhou Lie entered the city, the news of Zhou Lie's arrival reached the palace, and when he saw that the prince of the East had finally returned to Babylon, Emperor Charles and the prime minister breathed a sigh of relief, and then frowned.

"Are you sure that prince has what the magicians want?" asked Charles, uncertain.

"That's just my speculation, but he's already here, and we'll know then. Prime Minister Bopolini said respectfully.

"If that's the case, then it's a problem, the last time you mentioned it to me, I didn't believe it, but now the problem is in front of us, it's not a matter of believing it or not, it's a big matter between the two countries, and it's also about our alliance with Tionlis. The great emperor frowned and knocked on the table in disappointment.

"There are no eternal allies in the world, and in fact, isn't His Majesty the Emperor very puzzled by what the group of magicians who hide in the tower all day are thinking?

"Oh?

After listening to Bobolini's account, the emperor frowned.

In the face of his own prime minister's proposal, even Charles, who is familiar with Bopolini, feels that it is very fantastical, the other party is the prince of the only big country in the East, no matter what the purpose is here, even if it is a proton, he can't ask others to do this kind of thing that runs all over the world, if he lets Xia Guo know, I don't know what strange misunderstanding will happen, the current Marston is in ruins, but he has no energy to deal with possible threats from the outside.

"Don't worry, as long as Zhou Lie doesn't take the initiative to tell the other party about this matter, presumably Xia Guo won't know, and according to the other party's behavior, the power of Xingke has also caused him trouble. ”

"Then I'll leave it to you as before. ”

"Yes. ”

Soon after, the emperor entertained Zhou Lie in the banquet hall, and a unique bungalow in Babylon located by the sea became Zhou Lie's future residence.

At the end of the banquet, Zhou Lie was summoned by the emperor to the study, which is a very unusual treatment, although Zhou Lie is the prince of Xia State, but after all, he is a guest of other countries, the emperor's move has caused people to speculate, most people think that the emperor has taken a fancy to Zhou Lie, and wants to marry one of his daughters to him, so as to promote the marriage of two great powers, and some think that the emperor wants to regain the face lost last time.

Zhou Lie also smelled a trace of an unusual smell during this summons, but he didn't think that the other party would do anything to him.

With doubts, Zhou Lie followed the maid to Charles's study.

This is the office of the emperor, there is a large bookcase standing on the wall of the room, the papers on the table are piled up, Charles sits behind the table like a small earthen bag in the middle of the mountain, and at the desk, an old man with a bright eye stands there, is the chancellor of the empire, Bolpollini.

Zhou Lie bent down, saluted Charles with Western etiquette, and then sat down on the seat next to him and said, "I wonder what is the matter with this special invitation to me here?"

Charles didn't speak, but looked at Popolini on the side, and the old prime minister walked to Zhou Lie and said, "Please stretch out your hand." ”

Does this question seem familiar?

Zhou Lie heard the other party's words, subconsciously stretched out his hand, and then the next moment, an elemental crystal shining red and silver appeared in his hand.

Seeing the change in the elemental crystal in his hand, Zhou Lie's brain exploded.

A very simple conclusion has been reached.

The prime minister and the emperor already suspected that he had obtained Frem.

Forcibly pressing down the surprise in his heart, Zhou Lie took a few deep breaths, he knew that it was useless to pretend to be stupid at this time.

"What does this mean?" Zhou Lie asked, his intuition telling him that he still had room to maneuver now, and if the other party had any ill will towards him, he would have done it a long time ago.

Seeing Zhou Lie regain his composure very quickly, the two were slightly surprised, but they were just a little surprised.

"Do you know what's in your body?" asked Charles.

Faced with this question, Zhou Lie shook his head, hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know." "The fact that Frem and Tim can talk to him, Zhou Lie thinks it's better not to say it.

Bobolini nodded, sat down in front of Zhou Lie, and began to explain, "I believe you should know that the world is composed of four elements, namely fire, wind, water, and earth, and magicians mostly manipulate these four elements and have developed many magics, in addition to the four elements, there are also high-level time, space, and spiritual elements, in fact, with these seven elements, the world is complete." ”

"What resides in you is the star of time and fire. Bobolini explained, "The name of the star carving has been around for a long time, and you can think of it as an elf who has absolute control over the two elements of fire and time. ”

"Phew, we're not the kind of thing that's entirely human imagination. Frem retorted in his mind.

"Shhhh Zhou Lie ignored Frem's complaints and made a look of listening carefully.

"I guess you also know that the flame star carving in your hand was originally something of our empire. Suddenly, Charles on the side said in a serious tone.
