Chapter 1111: Your Former Lord
Gawain felt that he couldn't explain to Betty what a "plate" wasβafter all, a translation problem alone was a difficult hurdle in front of him, but fortunately, Miss Maid herself didn't dwell on this issue, and this girl was always good at giving up things she really couldn't understand, and she was open-minded.
Gawain watched Betty pour half a pot of hot tea on the dragon god of yesteryear, and rubbed what looked like a rag on the god of yesteryear for a long time - the girl certainly didn't know what she was doing, but she could tell that she was enjoying the process, with a happy smile on her face, and she had apparently done it many times......
The blasphemer who can leave his name in history is no more than .jpg in front of Betty.
After a busy day, Betty left the room - she still had a lot of work to do, and although there were many servants and attendants at her disposal, she had become so used to the hectic pace of life that she could not be idle.
Gawain watched Betty leave, and after the door of the hatchery room closed, he couldn't help but shake his head, and glanced at the golden dome that was quiet: "You have a good relationship with Betty...... Don't you feel offended by her reckless behavior? β
"She has a pure heart...... Purer than almost every mortal I've ever met. I love chatting with her, it reminds me of the dragons in my deepest memory...... It was a time when many things were simple," Enya whispered, "as for the offensive...... It seems that many people will subconsciously think that the 'gods' care a lot about the so-called 'offense' of mortals, but this is actually a misunderstanding, most of the time we don't care about what mortals are doing, the echoes from the current of thought are endless, and the increasingly noisy voices gradually cover all our sanity, and we prefer someone to talk to us, even if it is reckless...... It's just that the rules don't allow it.
"So I don't think that little girl is offended to me in the slightest, and I enjoy and cherish what I've been through, including her tea and 'wiping'βbecause this freedom is something that the dragons have paid so much."
Gawain couldn't help but glance at Enya, who was sighing at the egg, "They're just for their own freedom - your survival is actually a cautionary surprise for them." β
Enya laughed, and a speech like a retired veteran cadre came from the eggshell: "Don't think about things so seriously, sometimes it's good to be a little confused." β
Gawain opened his mouth, but said nothing in the end, he looked at the golden dome in front of him, and felt as if he saw a soul that had finally been freed after being trapped for 1.87 million years.
After the cradle is overturned, it is not only the child who is liberated from the cradle?
β¦β¦
At the top of the mountains of the Far North, a howling wind blows through the snow-covered fortresses and courtyards, the terrace at the top of the castle is bathed in a morning light, the flags depicting the dragon's side head dance in the wind on the walls around the terraces, and the snow is swept up by the wind, from the castle courtyard area below over the ridges and walls, and flutters towards the urban area below the mountainside.
A huge brazier burned at the edge of the terrace, an invisible magic rising from the crimson flames, keeping out the coldest wind, and Melita Pernia stood on the terrace with Archduke Baloger, looking out at the green woods and narrow plains at the foot of the mountain.
"The Duchy of the Holy Dragon has limited arable land and the climate here is not very suitable for large-scale agricultural production...... Although our food production has always been sufficient with the help of magic, the surplus that we can take out each year is still too small," said Archduke Baloger in a deep voice, "and I was ready to buy grain from neighboring countries and expand the levy...... At that time, we had no idea that aid from the human world would come on a large scale. The coalition solves not only the problem of food supply, but also the ...... of 'hope' itself."
"It's not just the human world, my lord," Melita lowered her eyelids, her expression solemn, "but also elves, dwarves, orcs...... Each of the races involved in the alliance came up with more or less assistance, especially the Grey Elves, who provided a very large amount of medicinal herbs...... One of the most urgently needed supplies in Tallund. β
Archduke Baloger fell into thought after hearing Melita's words, and then said while thinking: "But even if there is medicine from the Loren Continent, it can only solve part of the problem...... Not all traditional medicines are effective against contemporary dragons, especially since many dragons have been suffering from synergist dependence for far too long, and those who suffer from neuro-type synergist backlash need more than just medication......"
"His Majesty Gawain Cecil has also considered this issue, and I have discussed it with him - Cecil will organize a medical team using the power of the Light to go to Talrond to provide support, and their main task is to deal with the situation where the conventional medicines are ineffective," Melita said, "According to our tests, the power of the 'Holy Light' is effective for all mortal races, and is extremely suitable for neurotherapy, spiritual healing, and toxin purification, which may be a miracle in solving the problem of synergist addiction." β
"Holy Light...... The power of the Holy Light Gods," Grand Duke Baloger's expression couldn't help but become serious, "I've heard of Cecil's 'Holy Light Church Reform Movement', and I know about their White Knights and Martial Girls...... While I'm not clear on the technical details of them, they seem to have found a way to bypass the God of Light and directly let mortals use the power of the Light? You have been active in the human world for many years, do you think that the route they have chosen is reliable? β
Obviously, when it comes to the "gods", this primeval dragon who has experienced all the disobedient battles of the dragon clan is very cautious and sensitive.
"The transformation of the Church of the Light should be regarded as one of Cecil's earliest attempts in the field of 'harmlessness of the gods', and it can be traced back to the most primitive 'disobedience plan', which can be regarded as a continuation of the disobedience plan, and backwards to the 'Theocratic Council' that we have just established. In fact, many of the ideas of the Theocratic Council have been accumulated and summarized from the experience of transforming the Church of the Light, and this is a model that Gawain Cecil hopes to extract from it and apply it to the transformation of other sects," Melita analyzed very seriously, "It's hard to say whether this route is reliable or not - after all, it is something from the verification stage, but at least from the current results, the Holy Light released by the machine is no different from the Holy Light that the priest prays for, and the 'God of Light'...... So far, there has been no response. β
Baloger nodded: "No reaction is the best response, either it means that the 'blocking' methods of mortals are effective, and those machines have bypassed the authority of the gods, or it means that the gods behind the Light are really silently cooperating with our actions as Gawain Cecil said." β
Melita snorted, and then said, "By the way, the part of the 'Tallund Commercial Development' plan that I mentioned to you earlier involves the Principality of the Holy Dragon......
"You mean the sheer size of the ...... Tourism development? Grand Duke Baloger couldn't help but smile, "Have you set up one of the windows to Tallund in the Duchy of the Holy Dragon to accept travelers and adventurers who sign up in groups...... This matter has already been discussed by the Dragon's Blood Council, and we believe that it will be of great benefit not only to Tallund, but also to the Duchy's own economy - it has been successfully passed. β
"Ah, that's great news," Melita said happily, "and that will make Talrond even more closely connected to the Duchy of the Holy Dragon." β
"Of course," the Grand Duke of Dragonblood nodded with a smile, but then frowned slightly to show some concern, "This huge business plan is indeed surprising, even the Dragonblood Council was amazed by that Gawain Cecil's sharp mind and unique vision, but really...... With such a huge business activity and a new industrial model, will this really not cause theocracy fluctuations in the business field? Especially after learning the truth about the arrival of the god of war on the battlefield of Winter Castle, my advisors are now very worried that these plans will ...... the god of commerce again. β
Melita's expression was immediately a little stunned, obviously she hadn't thought about it in this direction before, and after a short thought, the Blue Dragon Lady shook her head: "I'm not too worried, after all, according to the current monitoring of various sects on Cecil's side, the mood of the god of commerce should be quite stable." β
"The god of business is emotionally stable...... "Archduke Baloger looked a little strange, "this is really a way to describe it that no one has ever thought of...... But in the context of the Theocratic Council, it is quite appropriate. β
"The main reason for the out-of-control fall of the god of war is the dramatic change in the concept of the field of war, and it is the sudden start of economic warfare that affects the lives of a large number of ordinary people, which leads to a widespread impact on the ideology and the gods behind it," Melita continued, "According to Cecil and Typhon's analysis since then, this drastic change in the ideology has mainly arisen from the 'conflict of authority domains', and a new type of business model does not constitute such an impact on business itself - it is the deepening of a certain field, rather than one area moving from one field to another. β
Speaking of this, Miss Blue Dragon couldn't help but scratch her hair: "To be honest, I don't fully understand this eitherβthey are following a very different path from Talrond, and the experience and knowledge I have accumulated are not suitable for dealing with their theories, but at least for now, I agree with Gawain's judgment, he has a keen sense of smell and transcendent vision in the realm of gods that surprises dragons. β
Grand Duke Baloger laughed: "You think highly of him. β
"I didn't expect that a human could bring so much change to this world," Melita said calmly, "To be honest, I haven't been communicating with him for long, seven hundred years ago, he was just a commissioner of the Mithril Treasury, but seven hundred years later...... He has surprised me in a few years even more than I have felt in the human world in the last two thousand years. β
"The change of times is like this - a long accumulation, and then it all seems to explode in an instant, and every season of civilization is like this, and the 'backwater' that has been maintained for more than 1.8 million years like Tallund is abnormal."
Grand Duke Baloger said with a feeling in his heart, and at this moment, a sound of footsteps suddenly came from behind, and the red-haired dragon seal witch Asharena appeared on the terrace: "The Grand Duke, and Miss Envoy, have received a special communication from Cecil, internal line. β
Baloger and Melita looked at each other for a moment, and the latter subconsciously whispered in amazement, "What a coincidence, we just talked about him......"
"Let's get over here," Baloger nodded to Asarena, already walking towards the exit of the terrace, "That Emperor Cecil doesn't just get in touch. β
It didn't take long for Melita and Baloger to arrive in the communication room on the upper floor of Dragon's Landing Castle, and among the many teleportation circles and amplification crystals, a magic net terminal with a completely different painting style and a new and bright shell was lying quietly on a platform, projecting a holographic image from Cecil's imperial capital in the sky. The device is part of a plan to promote relations between the Duchy of the Holy Dragon and the Cecil Empire, and is an extension of Cecil's "Magic Web Full Promotion Plan" - it is always on standby to ensure that the two capitals can communicate at all times, especially after the unexpected outbreak of the Typhon-Cecil War.
Melita and Archduke Baloger came to the communication device, and the door to the room closed behind the two, and after the unrelated personnel left, Balogel nodded to Gawain on the screen: "Good day, Your Majesty Gawain - what happened?" β
Gawain on the screen seemed to be a little speechless, but he didn't hesitate for long: "That's it, about the dragon egg sent by Talrond......
Melita suddenly became nervous: "What happened to that dragon egg?" β
"You guys stay calm, I'm not talking badnews," Gawain said first before answering, "What I'm going to say next may be a bit shocking, but it's generally good β are you ready?" β
"We're ready," Baloger sighed and looked at Gawain in the projection with a serious expression, "So what's wrong with that dragon egg?" β
ββ¦β¦ Spoken. β
Melita Baloger: "? β
"She said her name was Enya," Gawain coughed lightly, his expression looking very serious, "yes, it's the 'Enya' we knowβMelita, help the Grand Duke next to you, his body is starting to shake." β
Melita hurriedly supported the dragon-blooded archduke beside him, who seemed to be shocked, and the dragon-blooded archduke stared at the communication device in front of him with wide eyes, and after a long time, the primeval dragon from the ancient era calmed down a little, he suppressed the feeling of the whirlwind of the world, and while gently pushing Melita's arm away, he tried to break the silence in a calm tone: "You mean...... Our former gods...... He had been hiding in that egg, and now He was awake again......"
"No, you can now call Enya 'her', or even by her first name like I do, and that's what I'm saying: it's good news overall, she's no longer a god, and she no longer has an ideological connection to the dragons. And her resurrection also confirms my earlier suspicion that the divinity and humanity of the gods can be dealt with separately. You can breathe a sigh of relief, Grand Duke Baloger - the dragons are free, it's true, don't worry. β
Baloger looked at Gawain's expression and finally felt his breath even out, and then he subconsciously asked, "That...... Our God, Him...... What did she say when she woke up? No, I mean, she ...... Are you okay now? β
"She seems to be quite emotionally stable," Gawain said, glancing to the side, and it seemed that the former dragon god was in his sight at this time, "Oh, it's better than stability, she's very happy at this time." β
"What is she doing?"
"Reading the newspaper β and trying to make some drinks."
Baloger Melita: "?? β
