When I opened the author's background today, I found that an editor was looking for me, and I was instantly blinded, because as a newcomer and a new book, especially when I only wrote 40,000 words, I was so surprised that it would enter the editor's eyes.

Then I added the editor's big QQ with a nervous heart, and the editor asked me to get the outline, I was so shy, because the outline I changed every day, because there were too many ideas, so I had to briefly pass one first.

Well, today's surprise is really too big, I'm going to hit a few E4 pressure shocks first, a little more and then talk about it, and write it well in a few days.

By the way, ask for recommendations and favorites, and brush them every day.

Ever since King Uther decided at that council to carry out Charles' plan, the whole of Great Britain was in motion, and the nobles returned to their territories to allocate food for bait and troops to be sent, and naturally concealed a little of their own strength.

At this time, the royal city naturally became the busiest place in Great Britain now, countless noble private soldiers under the leadership of their respective knights pressed a cart of grain to transport here, and the knights under the command of King Uther were also busy leading his subordinates to count the grain and the army of those nobles.

As the army moved back and forth in and out of the city, the inhabitants of the royal city did not know that the Saxons were invading again, but when the alarm bell in the royal city suddenly rang that day, these residents had already guessed something in their hearts, and now they were just confirmed.

Knowing that it was the Saxons who invaded again, the inhabitants put aside their worries and went out of their homes again, and the merchants opened their shops to welcome customers. Should it be said that the environment sharpens people, after the Saxons come to the border of the Kingdom of Great Britain every year to report, these residents have become accustomed to it, but if the Saxons did not come this year, they would still be worried about when they will come, and now that they come, everyone is still relieved.

Under this kind of psychology, Wangcheng is busier than when it first enters autumn, and every day there will be a large number of merchants outside the city ready to do business while Wang's ** team is gathering in Wangcheng.

Charles stood at the head of the city and looked at the caravans waiting behind the army at the gate below to enter the city, with a mocking smile on his face, when a country is in trouble, there will always be such people, maybe some of them don't know what they are doing, they just think that this is a good opportunity to make a little money, take advantage of the increase in the population of the city, sell more when the price rises, and let themselves live a good life.

As for human beings, they are really a short-sighted race, they will never care about what happens behind the long river of time, they will always only stare at the interests in front of them, Charles is very contemptuous of the inferior nature of human beings, this is the sadness of short-lived races, they can never see the long-term things.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Charles's mind, when he had put himself outside of humanity, when he had stopped thinking of himself as a human being, and had accepted his identity as a devil.

Charles stood on the wall for a long time, until he was awakened by the sound of footsteps behind him, and he shook his head, shaking off the thought in his mind, after he had crossed over to the body of this devil, he had already said goodbye to his former human identity.

Hearing the footsteps behind him approaching him, Charles put away the look of sudden loss on his face, since he has become a devil and can't be a man, then don't be a man.

"Your Excellency Charles, what are you looking at here, you seem to have been standing here for a long time."

When Merlin walked up to Charles's side, Charles had calmed down, and his eyes were back to a flat state, and it wasn't until Merlin opened his mouth to speak that he pretended to withdraw his gaze that didn't actually fall on the crowd below.

"Master Merlin, do you think there will be a kingdom that will last forever?"

"Why did Lord Charles say that all of a sudden?" Merlin originally came to take a look because he saw Charles standing alone on the city wall for a long time, but he didn't expect Charles to suddenly ask himself like this.

"With Master Merlin's strength, he must also know that when a person reaches a certain strength, he is actually different from those of his original clan, he can live longer and see more things, so he can naturally see farther."

Charles didn't answer Merlin, he just raised his head and looked at the endless grassland in the distance, when the breeze blew, the grassland was like the sea, with bursts of green waves, and the white clouds that drifted in the sky from time to time cast patches of budding shade on the ground.

Merlin looked at the young man beside him with a puzzled gaze who looked no more than ten years old, a clean and simple pitch-black bubble that closely covered the young man's slightly thin body, and a handsome but for some reason pale face was slightly emaciated.

Unlike those nobles who are not strong enough, Merlin can perceive that Charles's ordinary-looking robe hides a mysterious and complex formation, and the vague and plain pattern is always surging with huge magic, although he has not probed the strength of this young man, but from here alone, Merlin knows that the young man around him is very strong.

So what did he mean by what he said, Merlin knew that when a person's strength reached a certain level, in fact, he could no longer be called a human, his life essence had been sublimated to another level, the shackles of life that had originally bound him had been broken, and his lifespan had far exceeded the limit of his own race. So, what is Charles, trying to express

There was silence on the walls, and neither of them spoke or sank into their own thoughts, until there was a commotion at the gates below, and Charles was awakened from his contemplation.

Looking down and seeing that it was nothing more than an aristocratic army arriving from elsewhere and arguing with the gate guards, Charles withdrew his gaze to look at Merlin beside him.

"Master Merlin, do you think it's really okay for a kingdom to be ruled by a group of people who seem short-sighted because of the brevity of their lives? The glory of the Roman Empire still lingers in people's hearts, but even such a vast empire could not avoid falling from the clouds of glory. ”

"Even if a kingdom has a wise and martial king, and he is in the limelight with this kingdom for a while, so what, can he guarantee that the successor of his descendants will also be like him, so I have never seen a country that lasts forever."

"Master Merlin, I have traveled to many places in this world, in the easternmost part of the opposite continent, there used to be a country that was so powerful that it was subdued in all directions, the Han Dynasty, you must have heard of it if you are well-informed, but so what, it is not dust to dust to dust, replaced by other dynasties. Rest in peace, the Macedonian Empire, where are these once great empires now. ”

"So, Master Merlin, what's the use of you working so hard for the future of Great Britain?"

Merlin didn't shy away from Charles' gaze staring at him, and his long white hair fluttered from time to time in the breeze, making the old man look in high spirits.

"Charles, I never thought that a kingdom would be strong forever, and I never thought about how to make a kingdom last forever. Charles, human life is indeed very short, compared to those of us who have extraordinary strength, their lifespan is like a splash in the long river. But Charles, didn't you realize that it was this group of people who only had a short life of a few decades who created the most wonderful story in this world. ”

"In Greece, Zeus and his Olympian gods were indeed exalted, but it was always the heroes, not the gods, that were most widely known."

"And the reason why I want to stay here in Great Britain is because I want to see for myself what kind of brilliance people can bring, and as for the future of the kingdom, that is not for us people to consider. Moreover, King Uther has been a friend of mine for many years, and it is only right that I should help him. ”

Charles shrugged, turned his head and continued to look at the intersection of heaven and earth in the distance, he had no expression on his face, but his heart was a little relieved, if Merlin was very concerned about the future of the Kingdom of Great Britain, Charles would have to consider the strength of this legendary powerhouse into his plan, but since this strong man didn't care, Charles's next plan could be a little easier.

"Then what is the reason for your presence in Great Britain, Lord Charles, I don't think what you did in the hall that day was without a reason." Merlin suddenly asked Charles.

Charles glanced at Merlin beside him, just a faint smile on his face.

"Like you said, I also want to see if there will be a bright star in the next era that can suppress the whole world."

Merlin looked at Charles beside him in shock, how he knew the development of the fate of this era, and how he knew that there would be a world-famous monarch in Great Britain. Suddenly, Merlin had the idea of killing someone, but for a moment, he put the thought behind him.

However, Merlin, who was shaking in his heart, didn't notice that at the moment when he had a killing intent, Charles's body suddenly trembled, and a trace of coldness that suddenly leaked from the old man next to him made him feel a sense of danger in the depths of his soul, he would die, he would die without resistance.

Merlin glanced at Charles, his eyes were calm, but Charles knew that his feelings could not be wrong, this appearance was that an old man who was nearly seventy years old had indeed killed himself at that moment.

"I'm curious, Lord Charles, how do you know?"

Looking at Merlin's expressionless face, Charles suddenly felt a rush of pressure in his heart, and from the other party's flat tone, Charles heard that if he was a little hesitant in his next answer, he would be in a dangerous situation.

"Master Merlin, as a wandering poet, if you don't even have the ability to spy on the long river of fate, how can you walk in this dangerous world for so long without falling." Charles tried his best to suppress the fluctuations in his tone, as if he didn't feel anything.

"Oh, Lord Charles seems to be really capable of it. Well, it's getting late, and I still have something to do, Mr. Charles, so I'll leave first. Merlin nodded slightly to Charles and turned to leave, but when he reached the steps of the city wall, Merlin suddenly stopped.

"Lord Charles, I don't want to see something unpleasant happen next, and you know very well that the future of Great Britain cannot be harmed in the slightest."

Charles turned to look at Merlin, who had finished speaking, and walked straight down the city wall until Merlin's back disappeared around the corner.

"Interesting, Merlin, it seems that your identity is not only a prophet of the Kingdom of Great Britain, nor is it as simple as you say, just to experience the creation of history by human beings so casually." Charles muttered in a low voice, "Merlin, is it because you have some mission because you have some kind of mission, and it seems that the next few years will be very interesting." ”
