Eight hundred and five showdowns, a duel of faith
Valentine, in the magic tower on the side of the Castle of the Emperors, Medi, the Imperial Minister of Magic, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, as if waiting for something.
The afternoon sun enters through the window, diffusing a faint white light that is completely different from the sun, and vaguely condenses into a human figure.
Medi bowed deeply to the humanoid light and shadow, "Venerable Child of Light, what kind of anomaly makes you project, Finn's truth will stain your radiance. ”
The humanoid light and shadow flickered slightly, conveying to Medi a thought that seemed to be far away: "After the last world change, Finn's soul index continued to be abnormal, and the main variant of the world showed signs of deviation, which is very dangerous, and we suspect that you have not fulfilled your duties as a guardian." ”
Medi's tone fluctuated slightly: "I took into account the existence of another force, so I didn't interfere with the main variable's decision more, as for the new variable, it did disturb Finn's soul flow, but the total amount is still extremely weak, not worth mentioning." ”
"It's not a matter of the total amount, the flow anomaly is a big problem," said the light and shadow, "If the main variable can't get the flow back to normal, it means that she is losing her influence on the world as the main variable." ”
"As for the other force, we have emphasized it a long time ago, it is the manifestation of the power of the multiverse balance, and we don't need to care about it at all. As long as the door is not touched, that force will not come to the foreground. ”
Medi sighed, "She has decided to move the Kingdom of Order to Heavenly Mountain. ”
The light and shadow swayed: "Very good, we have detected that the next world change will come soon, and make sure that she completes it within half a year." The biggest hole in the world of Fein can finally be patched after five epochs. ”
"Also, that new soul flow, which we confirm to be a multiverse soul disturbance, is a dead end that will soon die. This process may not be controllable, and you need to push the primary variable to react as it should. ”
Medi replied respectfully, the light and shadow flickered, and seeing that it was about to dissipate, he couldn't help but ask again: "Then the sixth...... No, the Fifth Age, what would it be like?"
The moment the light and shadow dissipated, the last thought sent to Medi's heart: "Of course, it's the perfect cycle to return to before the Dark Ages." ”
"Perfect...... Is it looping......"
Medi muttered blankly, not coming to her senses until the Transmission Ring vibrate.
"Your Majesty, I'll come right over. ”
The Wizard's figure faded in the air, leaving only a long sigh.
..................
The burgundy sardines flew across the canyon, accompanied by a group of magic warplanes that looked like salmon, circled twice around a castle at the edge of the canyon, and slowly descended towards the take-off and landing field in front of the castle.
"No wonder you want to see me here, it's to show me force. ”
Seeing the floating fleet under construction in the canyon, the magic guide fighter in the sky, and the magic guide chariot on the ground, Li Qi was very glad that he had come.
Theresia, who is one with man and God, as the side of the gods, is becoming more and more impatient with the mortal affairs of the main plane. As the god of war has revealed, the goddess of order, Kayla Theresia, is only in over-form, and the throne of order is craving pure Theresia.
As a mortal, Empress Theresia tasted the benefits of centralization, and the Dawning Empire, unified in her hands, became a weapon of real power for both men and gods. She can't wait to put the empire into the war to unify Finn, and at the same time lay the foundation for the faith in order.
Romroth's side is in danger, so it's no wonder he's so keen on the affairs of the Hell Plane Army. The gods behind him don't know what the reason is that it is still inconvenient to stand up, so he has no solid support at the god level, so he has to huddle with the Fei Gong side to keep warm, and use the bloody battle to occupy the righteousness of the name.
So, after the matter of Reka is settled, it will be up to Theresia when and under what pretext to start a war against Romross.
The goal of pulling Theresia out is just to think about it, and the more realistic goal is to stretch this time out as long as possible.
In a state of confusion, Richie got off the plane, and he and Catherine were greeted by old acquaintances.
"Her Majesty, Lord Prell......"
The Empress's chamberlain, Kevin Towne, bowed respectfully to the two, a knight of the old days who had been loyal to Theresia for a while, and finally chose to return to Theresia.
Goodbye at this time, the original acquaintance no longer exists, and only in Kevin's raised head and cast a glance at Li Qi can taste an indescribable sigh.
It was a private meeting on the fly, and when Litch and Catherine entered the castle, they were not greeted with great pomp, but were led directly by Kevin to the high part of the castle, where the Empress used to entertain close visitors.
Theresia is still in a white dress and a golden crown, and her style is more modest, and she stands quietly in the living room, like a famous painting, making the world a background. At that moment, Richie felt like he had gone back in time, back to the scene when he met her in Conrad City.
After all, there are too many differences, she is more beautiful, and her eyes are deeper. The blonde hair, which was draped down like the dawn on his head, became a short hair similar to that of Catherine.
"Catherine, I thought you had forgotten my sister. ”
Ignoring Richie, Theresia beckoned Catherine over, took her hand and said, "Since you're here, let's talk about what you've been delaying for a long time, you're the queen of redstone after all." ”
Catherine looked at Richie, who smiled and nodded, she had the courage, shook her head and said to her sister, "Queen, don't." Knighthood, don't. ”
Theresia should have been mentally prepared for this answer, and her expression did not change in the slightest, but when Catherine said the latter, she lost her mind slightly.
Catherine said, "Yes, sister." ”
After a moment's pause, Theresia stroked Catherine's shoulder and said, "It's easy, just come to me." ”
Seeing Catherine pursing her lips and shaking her head seriously, Theresia sighed: "We have also talked about it several times, don't be so childish anymore." ”
The empress turned her head, and only then did she look at Li Qi squarely: "It seems that no one wants us sisters, and we must follow a man of unknown origin." ”
Li Qi's smile froze, and at the same time, Xiaohong's exclamation in his heart also waved: "I was discovered!?"
Theresia just glanced at him, then turned back to Catherine and said, "Do you know where this man is from?"
This man is from Earth......
Catherine didn't understand what her sister meant, and shook her head blankly.
"Richie, I thought you were at least looking out for Catherine," said Theresia, laughing, "You brought Catherine to convince me." I never thought that after revealing my true colors, I would let Catherine come back to me?"
Li Qi calmed down and raised his head and said: "I am Li Qi, Li Qi is me, there is no other face, you want me to swear in the name of the goddess." ”
Xiaohong shouted, "Don't cheat me!
Li Qi regretted it when he said it, but at this time, he could only go down.
Theresia shook her head: "Don't talk about your goddess, let you swear by the river Styx, the goddess of the river Styx will be partial to you, God knows how this new goddess came to be." ”
At this time, if you tell you that the goddess Styx is actually my daughter, will you scold me for hiding my family situation?
"Your goddess is too, isn't she?"
Theresia was unusually direct: "I suspect that you and your goddess are traveling mages, and you two are outsiders to Finn. If this is true, then you must have other plans in Finn. Your faith, what you are doing now, is nothing but a cover for hypocrisy. ”
Catherine looked at Richie, looking like she wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.
All witches know this......
They are not stupid, the things that Xiaohong threw in the silk network, and the strange words that Li Qi often said, and even the belief in Datongism, are not from the Fein world.
However, the situation is also complicated, which does not mean that Xiaohong and Li Qi are traveling mages from another world.
"Theresia, why do you think that the traveling mage came to Fein with ulterior motives?"
Li Qi spread his hands: "Strictly speaking, except for the Creation God and the Ancient God, all the creatures of Finn are outsiders. The Titans came from other worlds, they created elves, dwarves, and halflings, and then created humans with the old gods Mother Earth. Strictly speaking, the mother of human beings is a native, and the father is a foreigner. ”
"Needless to say, there were many gods before the Dark Ages who were traveling mages, and there were rumors that the Benuins were also from another world. ”
"Even Tyr, the predecessor of Dragon, was a traveling mage from another world, and they didn't come to harm Finn. ”
Theresia's pupils constricted, and she said in a stern tone, "You admit that you are a traveling mage?"
Li Qi shook his head: "I'm not admitting it, but I don't think that whether or not it is a traveling mage has a direct relationship with whether it has ulterior motives, and it doesn't mean that it is to endanger Finn." ”
"It's an obvious fact!"
Theresia said in a cold voice: "Except for Dragon, after the Dark Ages, those who are suspected of being traveling mages have caused great disasters to the world of Finn!
This can be regarded as a complete showdown, Li Qi sighed: "Then you should know that there are also traveling mages in the Primordial Knights, at least Roland is." ”
Theresia was stunned, and the golden light suddenly pierced through the roof, projecting onto her, floating a faint dust of light that condensed into the silhouette of Kelastro.
Kelasdron sighed, "Theresia, don't worry about the Traveling Mage, I told you, my soul also has a Traveling Mage fragment. ”
The heat flow rolled in the mind, seeped into the body, and then penetrated out of the body, and Xiaohong also moved.
She also made a projection like Kelastro and greeted the other party: "Hello Sister Kayla! I haven't seen you for a long time, I was in Benoin last time......
Do you think you're walking your dog on the street and bumping into an acquaintance and chatting?
Theresia didn't stop there: "Whether or not the traveling mage is indeed not directly related to whether it is good or evil, but deceiving me at this point has a relationship!"
"You're still vague, what are you afraid of? Aren't you also worried that if you're not from Fein, your words and deeds will be suspected?"
"Don't compare Roland, Ronel, or even Kayla, they have proven their kindness to Finn for thousands of years, and they are already part of Finn. And you've only lived twenty years since Feinman's battle, and judging by the current trend, you've bebehaved like a combination of the Emperor of Magic and the Emperor Tudor, how can you not be suspicious?"
Li Qi spread his hands: "I'm not a traveling mage, but how can I prove this kind of thing?"
Theresia said firmly: "It's very simple, accept the soul trace!"
Li Qi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "Theresia, if my soul can be completely in charge of its own and can prove its innocence, I am also willing to accept soul retrospective, but the problem is ......"
Xiao Hong floated on his head and shouted: "His soul is connected with me, and tracing him is tantamount to tracing back to me! Although I don't have a ghost in my heart, I am a god anyway! You are an existence of man and god, and I can't stop you from making some ghosts." Maybe even the key to my little vault...... Well, the secrets of the kingdom of God are going to be taken away by you, is that possible?"
Theresia said, "Of course I know your pair...... It's a soul connection, just like me and Kayla. So I asked my Wizard to find the Jar of Silence, which can temporarily block the soul association. There is also the Soul Vision, which can trace the soul without resorting to the power of the gods. ”
"In this way, Xiaohong's connection with Li Qi and my association with Kayla will be blocked. I'm just tracing Richie's soul as a mortal, and I won't involve you. ”
When it comes to her revolutionary assets, Xiaohong not only doesn't make fun of it, but also becomes very shrewd.
She shook her head again and again: "Theresia, you are the unity of man and God, even without Kayla, your soul has the heart of a god." You blocked me and snatched Richie, where am I crying?"
Theresia raised her eyebrows: "Will your soul connection with Li Qi be so fragile that it will be cut off by something like the Absolute Veil? That's just a temporary shield, if I really want to rob him, you won't be able to detect it?" ”
In terms of bargaining talent, Xiaohong did not lose her woman's nature after all: "Even so, you still have the heart of a god, and your soul power is much stronger than Li Qi." It's easy to search for something and do something, but it's still not safe. ”
"Well, we are here to show you our sincerity and let you know that we definitely don't want to harm the world. But it's not fair that we have to carry all the risks and everything, right?"
Theresia said solemnly: "In the name of Kaila Theresia and Theresia, I will never do anything to Richie's soul, nor will I pursue anything that has nothing to do with his origins." If I disobey, I will fall into purgatory and the abyss, from which I will never be liberated. ”
She smiled faintly, "Kayla and I are equal to Kem combined, and my own name, I believe that such an oath still carries a bit of weight." ”
Xiaohong scoffed: "If the gambling curse is useful, the police will be ...... Uh, no, what else do you need the law for?"
Seeing that the two were about to talk, Li Qi said, "I accept it." ”
"You spy!
Xiaohong scolded angrily in his heart: "If she swears, you will be trustworthy, why are you indifferent when I swear?"
"Don't worry about the details, this is an opportunity ......"
Litchie tried to turn her attention: "Think Yuzan, think about Annie, if there really is a chance to convince Theresia to be on our side, it's only this one time. ”
Xiaohong suddenly came to her senses, but she was terrified: "She's Theresia! If she doesn't accept it, then we'll all have to lose our bottoms!
"She knew about it a long time ago, didn't she?"
"Emancipating the slaves, eliminating the classes, she already knew our slogans, and I believe that the internal reference version of the Crimson Divine Codex has long been on her desk, what does she want us to do...... At least it's clear what is being preached. ”
"To her, heretics like ours are no different from the capitalist world that will inevitably overthrow her in the future, they are all enemies. Even because our revolution is still after the capitalist revolution, she does not have realistic and urgent feelings. ”
This is only the pessimistic side, the optimistic side, that is, she can see the truth of the other world, and can understand where our faith is advanced and strong from the comparison of the historical process of the two worlds. ”
"I can show her such truth, didn't I say when I came, it's a decisive battle. The bad of failure does not necessarily mean the end of everything, and if you succeed, even if you don't get a goddess, you can get an empress. ”
Xiao Hong said: "You want to be beautiful! Expecting her conscience to discover and betray her own class? This is another rightist mistake!"
Richie's determination is very strong: "At least let her understand that we think and do the same, let her confirm that our origin is okay, so that she can still hold on to her previous beliefs, and treat us as the party that can exist, but cannot compete with her for order." ”
Speaking of this, he was suddenly shocked: "Wait, are you really sure that my soul belongs to this world, and not from the other side of the earth?"
Xiaohong's mind is extremely firm: "There are still many unclear places about our own origins, but I can swear by Xiaohong's name on this issue, it is absolutely right, our souls belong to this world!"
In other words, the life of the earth world is instead a journey through the past?
Li Qi was speechless, and he could only believe her at this time, but he still habitually muttered secretly: "I still gave you the name Xiaohong, is it useful to swear it?"
Xiaohong said angrily: "Then I'll swear by Xiaobai!?"
The two completed the communication in an instant, and Xiaohong still had to tell Theresia a fraction: "If it is okay to confirm our origins, then this incident should not have happened?
Theresia said gracefully: "If there is no problem, I mean that not only your background but also your intentions are fine, I can promise you, whether it is at the level of gods or mortals, as long as you do not take the initiative and directly oppose me, I will not list you as enemies." ”
That's it!
Theresia's promise is very lenient, implying that even if you support Romrose, as long as you don't make it clear, I won't come and fight you directly. This is both tolerance and self-confidence.
Li Qi was about to nod, when a thought suddenly flashed in his heart: "I have one more request, promise me one more thing when the time comes, and that matter has nothing to do with the Goddess of Order and the Empress of Dawn." ”
Theresia looked at him, their eyes intertwined, and some kind of tacit understanding flashed.
She pursed her lips and nodded, "Okay." ”
Neither side talked about what to do if it was found to be a problem, and if there was a problem, there was no need to talk about it, and it would inevitably become a battlefield.
A moment later, Medi, the Dawning Empire's Minister of Magic, appeared, bowed to the three goddesses present, nodded to Richie, and placed the two items on the table.
The Absolute Gauze and the Soul Vision, the former is a legendary-level magic guide, and the latter is an extraordinary item that cannot be classified by an artifact or a magic guide, and belongs to the spiritual power side.
Xiaohong probed with Li Qi's hand and found nothing unusual.
Let Catherine hold the veil of despair, ready to be stimulated and controlled by her, Xiaohong was apprehensive: "Is it really possible?"
"Xiaohong, I have confidence in your determination......"
Li Qi said firmly: "I also have confidence in our path......"
Xiaohong gritted her teeth: "No matter! if something really goes wrong, let's just make a big fuss about the Heavenly Palace!"
She activated the magic guide through Catherine, and blue light swirled down, enveloping Richie and Theresia.
At that moment, Xiaohong felt very bad, she hugged her arms and muttered with a bitter face: "It's so cold......"
