Chapter 008: The King

This badge is said to have been a gift from the king before Israel was exiled, but for some unknown reason, Israel actually passed the valuable gift to one of his illegitimate sons, whom he had probably only met a few times. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After entering several successive gates, the scenery you see all the way is clean ground and straight and well-proportioned stone pillars. Even without the guidance of others, the evil eye probably knew that the king's residence was probably in the most majestic and majestic place, which is said to be called the Hall of Roaring.

"The majestic city is as unblemished as the city of Gondor. The successive rulers of this kingdom, the virtues that their names represent, do not know if they deserve this honor. ”

The Ringwraith spoke like a sob, but it couldn't hide his curiosity about the kingdom. The Evil Eye could tell that he was inquiring about the king's name and family history.

It just so happened that no one could hear the evil eye's 'self-talk', "Speaking of which, there is nothing to boast about, the history of the Seven Kingdoms, that is, the family history of the Seven Kings. And if you want to tell this, you have to go back a long way, it was still the era of the city-state of the Lol Cardin Empire, and most of the seven royal families were still the leaders of the barbarian tribes during that period, only the royal ancestors of the Dande Kingdom were born from a group of pirates, and when they came to raid, it was just in time for the collapse of the Lol Cardin Empire and a good time to divide up this behemoth. Well, the legend is that the ancestors of the Seven Kingdoms were actually just a bunch of barbarians. ”

"Descendants of barbarians? I don't think they deserve to rule these kingdoms. ”

Evil Eye heard contempt in the Witch King's tone. But as a time-traveler, he doesn't agree with the attitude of the Witch King of Angmar. There is a saying in the past world that princes and princes are not destined to be born.

"Don't let your mind get narrow-minded, Angmar. No one's ancestors were heroes of glory. Speaking of the first true king of the Dande Kingdom, there is no detailed record. All that remains is his name and some exaggerated-sounding legends. His name is very simple, just called 'Dande', perhaps the tradition of naming in the family is from him, every royal family member is surnamed Dande, because they believe that the life and behavior of future generations of children will be shaped by the hero's name, the current king is Yolander VI, but it does not mean that he is the sixth king of the Dande Kingdom, but the sixth king named Yolander in the history of the kingdom. ”

Compared to the noisy perimeter of the palace, the building area inside the palace seemed unusually quiet. Evil Eye and Ringwraith had neither concept nor experience, but they at least knew that this magnificent court should not be suitable for a 9-year-old to wander around. So they followed the straight path, without being too curious about the majestic buildings, and before reaching the Hall of Roaring they passed through the long corridors, past the last garden, and in the midst of all sorts of strange flowers and plants, occasionally with some crooked, seemingly stunted trees, but all of them seemed to the evil eye to be full of beauty and wonder, and for nearly half an hour, turning a corner, he always found himself in a place he had never seen before.

Roaring halls. The evil eye in this place has been heard too many times from too many people.

But even if he racked his brains, he couldn't imagine that he came to this place in person, except for the reliefs of the two roaring golden dragons, everything here was very plain. No, rather stale. In particular, the scene of a banquet that had just been experienced, and the deserted scene seemed even more desolate, as if this empty shell hall was inhabited by a king who was about to be forgotten.

"Some say that Yolander VI was a wise and great king, while others say that he was cruel and ruthless, even a moody mad king. He lived a simple life, but he was so happy. Many times in his life, he waged wars at great expense, and the legends about this king are always full of contradictions. As for the Roaring Palace, look at this place, the pinnacle of kingdom power in the eyes of ordinary people is nothing more than a few long tables randomly placed in a hall, and a throne that looks like it is about to fall off. ”

Surrounded by stone walls, the whole roaring hall seemed very silent, and a cold wind blew in through the open window, and I saw the chair with unusual meaning on the steps, facing the cold wind from the window.

From where he was standing, he seemed to be able to see the usual King Yolande VI, sitting on the chair in front of the window with his crown on his head, his hands resting idly on the windowsill and looking at the horizon in the distance. Evil Eye had been curious about Yolander VI since earlier, and now this curiosity has become even greater.

I heard that the king had just entertained the diplomats of the Kingdom of France today, so the banquet here should be held for him.

"Huh? There are roast suckling pigs, roasted egrets, roasted peacocks, as well as the tail of a brute tiger, the fleshy paws of a fierce bear, the nose of a lion beast, and the eyes of a troll......"

Glancing over the table that belonged to the king, the evil eye found something that ordinary people would never dare to think of. The most eye-catching of these are the tributes from the Outlands, including the eyes of trolls and the heart of vampire bats, both of which have special effects on themselves. One can heal the tired spirit, and the other can heal the adverse effects of the blood. It's the equivalent of a wizard's blue vial and blood vial.

In fact, the Evil Eye doesn't care about the taste of these 'foods' at all. As long as he can restore the status column in his attribute data to normal, he is willing to try even if it is eaten raw.

Angmar stood hopelessly to the sidelines, the Evil Eye's eating appearance reminding him of the orcs eating. As he looked away, the Witch King of Angmar turned his attention to the sound of footsteps, and he reminded Evil Eye, "Someone's coming. ”

Thinking that it might be a kitchen servant who had cleaned up the aftermath, Evil Eye picked up the plates on the table and wanted to stock up on some 'tonics' for himself.

But the man who suddenly entered the Hall of Roaring was not a servant, but the old king himself, who had a double dragon head insignia on his chest, that is, the grandfather of the evil eye, Yolande VI. The man who followed next to Yolander VI had a single dragon head badge pinned to symbolize the status of the prince, and it was needless to say that it was impossible to guess who it was. The Evil Eye raised his eyes and used his consciousness to communicate with the Ring Spirit, "He should be Vincent, the prince of the Dande Kingdom." ”

Judging from their appearances alone, whether it is Eulander VI or Vincent, their looks conform to the superficial image of a king and prince. Sharp eyes and straight nose, a seemingly majestic king, and a seemingly wise prince.

Although he was old, his eyes were bright, his eyebrows were somewhat similar to those of evil eyes, his beard and hair mixed with many white strands were freshly combed, and his clothes were spotless and impeccable. He seemed surprised for a moment when he saw the evil eye, but he was not surprised. Then he said, "Look, Vincent, that's what I meant when I told you at the banquet. No one is in a position to complain that there is no opportunity, because opportunity is always everywhere, as long as you can spot it. When the opportunity arises, the people who will grasp it are usually those who are driven by expectations of themselves. The descendants of the Dande royal family can never ignore opportunities, or always allow opportunities to be created by others. ”

The King continued to wander past the Evil Eye, rambling on a subject he had not yet enjoyed somewhere beyond the Hall of Roar, while Vincent cast a menacing glance at the inexplicable child in his eyes with bloodshot eyes.

The Evil Eye understood that Vincent was waving briefly at him, meaning to disappear quickly.

Oh, Vincent, the one who wants to get rid of himself like a mad dog.

Want Lao Tzu to obey your will? Dream on.

When they looked at each other, the eyes of the evil eye wandered over Vincent's body. Originally, he wanted to say a first-level sorcery to greet him, but King Yolande was present, and the evil eye's response was not excessive, he just pretended not to see it, he knew that Vincent might not recognize him yet. didn't know that the kid in his eyes was the waste man he wanted to get rid of.

Having already arrived here anyway, the Evil Eye didn't mind if the king and the prince finished their conversation, he continued to do what he had just done, stuffing the two trolls' eyes into his clothes, and as he was picking up an almost intact vampire bat heart, the king suddenly turned around and stretched out his hand to him.

"Look at him, Vincent. He was the illegitimate son of Israel, and with a purple gold badge, he dared to confront him directly and was ruthless to him, never even acknowledging his grandfather and king. When someone told me about this just now, I was thinking if this kid was too brave, or if he knew how to seize the opportunity. Old King Yolande ordered.

Hearing of Israel's bastard, Vincent suddenly turned his head and glared at the evil eye, who reacted a little panicked and did not dare to move.

The evil eye was not afraid of Vincent's vicious eyes, but just now the ring spirit told him through the connection of consciousness that the moment the old king Yolande entered the Hall of Roaring, he sensed that he was locked by at least six murderous aura. The Six Paths of Murder They may be people, or they may be some unknown ghost......

It's just that there really are ghosts in this world?

The evil eye thought it was sharp and bold, but at this moment it also felt the eerie cold thing on his back, which was called murderous. So he stood obediently and did not act rashly, and let the king's gaze scrutinize, and his mind fell into all kinds of unwarranted speculations.

"And if you were King Dande, what kind of person would you turn him into?" Every time Yolande glanced at the evil eye, there were a few wisps of confusion hidden, but he continued the conversation with the heir to the throne.

A cold light flashed in Vincent's eyes, but he still showed a puzzled look in front of Yoland. "He? He was a mongrel of Israel, who was neither recognized by the royal family nor had any official status, just a superfluous and useless brat who only knew sneakily into places he was not qualified to come to at such a young age. Oh, what kind of person can he be, a thief who takes the sheep by the hand. ”

"Stupid!" Yolande looked up abruptly to meet his eyes. "Vincent, are your ears stuffed with the of those women in the Golden Temple? You're such an idiot. You have to listen carefully to every word I say, and your king and your Lao Tzu are just asking not 'what kind of person do you see he is', but 'what kind of person will you turn him in'. Look at him, a seemingly thin boy, he is standing here, young but knows how to use his brain, although he was born in the wrong bed, but I want to remind you that this kid has no less royal blood than you. So what will you turn him into? Your most loyal friend? Or your lifelong enemy? Or will you just leave him like that, waiting for someone else to use him against you? ”
