The next day, in the hall of Valentinsburg, the high-ranking leaders of the Alliance of Order gathered together and were beaming.

Valentine's Cathedral was razed to the ground, Theresia received a shield of protection, and the Benuin gods were transferred to the Eastern Desert to continue the seal. Although there was some disturbing news from the West yesterday, the Dawn War, which lasted more than two years, has finally come to an end, and everyone is relieved and has begun to look forward to a new post-war order.

When Trey Hope walked into the hall, people were not only more happy, but also a little more stable in their hearts.

The queen wore a floor-length dress and no armor, which was enough to declare the war officially over.

The golden background of the long dress shows the dignity, the majestic crown and simple silver ornaments, coupled with the queen's slender figure and awe-inspiring beauty, make this golden yellow completely controlled by the queen, without any flashiness.

Slightly obtrusive, the Queen's left hand was wearing a golden glove, which was not a glove but a magic prosthetic hand. The queen used the flesh and blood of her left hand to store a part of the divine power of order, sealing the Benuin gods, and if she wanted to grow a novice, the seal would be invalid, so she had to use a fake hand. This also makes people sigh secretly, and at the same time admire the queen even more.

The queen sat on the throne and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Ladies and gentlemen, our struggle has finally paid off, the power of the Loyal Divine Court in East Fein has been swept away, and the mountain of evil that weighs on the heads of the good people has finally been destroyed. ”

The hall resounded with the shouts that had fluttered over Valentine yesterday......

"God bless Theresia!"

"Dawn and order to Theresia!"

"Theresia, like no other!"

The queen smiled faintly and waved her hand, and the cry stopped abruptly.

"Glory to you, to all the soldiers who fought in the front, to the people who served the war in the rear, to Kem and Dawn!"

"We should have a big celebration, and I've got people to prepare for it. We need to tell everyone the news of the victory, and at the same time comfort all those who have lost their lives for this war. ”

The queen soon had a twist: "However, we can't completely relax yet. An unknown threat is looming at us, and the existence of a warped will of Kem has not yet been completely cleared. Loyal to the Divine Court...... To be precise, this evil organization is the Ancestral Fellow, and they have not been completely eradicated. ”

People are also awe-inspired, and the Queen's words correspond to the great changes from the West yesterday.

The Loyal Divine Court gave up on Erxiang, I don't know if it was intentional or accidental, they sealed, or rather, the witches imprisoned in the Purple Mountain all escaped, and the protective barrier of the entire city was corrupted. As of this early morning, only some of the citizens of the outer city had escaped, and hundreds of thousands of citizens were all shrouded in the Corrupt Enchantment.

"Those citizens of the Fragrance have enjoyed the balm of the people exploited from the entire continent by the Loyal God Court for generations for thousands of years, and they have also distorted the will of Kem. Although most of them did it unintentionally, it was still a serious crime. ”

"What happened to them now is the punishment they deserve, and I don't sympathize with them at all!"

There was some schadenfreude in the queen's tone, which was also the voice of the people.

To be honest, a lot of people laughed out loud when they received the news yesterday. The citizens of Rakami regard themselves as the people of the heavenly mountains on earth, and regard the people of other places as vulgar hillbillies. Millions of citizens do not produce, and they all rely on the wealth squeezed by the divine court, and it is really gratifying to end up today.

The Queen continued: "But the entire city has been corrupted, seriously threatening the security of the surrounding region and even the entire continent, and the arrangement that distorts the will of Kem has not been removed, and we cannot sit idly by. ”

"The surrounding area of Ika has been controlled by that king of kings. Although he is as committed to overthrowing Ika's rule as we are, the situation has changed a lot, and as a descendant of Tudor, there are doubts and worries about what he thinks about the future order of the continent. ”

"Originally, I planned to lead an elite army to personally go to Erixiang to eliminate the source of corruption, but now it seems that I must communicate with the king of kings and clarify the positions of both parties before deciding on the next move. ”

The queen let out a cloudy breath and threw out the question that had haunted the hearts of the people all night, longing for it and bewildering it: "Then let's talk freely and talk about what we should do next." ”

"We should first concentrate on cleaning up the evil order of the Loyal God Court in East Fein, so that the people can taste the fruits of victory", Grand Duke Tangus, the gray-haired old paladin took the lead in speaking: "The people are eager for Your Majesty's new order!"

The Grand Duke's words received a lot of responses, the fragrance is too far away, and it is still under the control of the king of kings, even if it becomes a corrupt city, it should be the first headache for the king of kings.

Now that Valentine has been dealt with, the power of the Loyal God Court in East Fein has collapsed, and it is time to honor the oath of the broken tower!

"Don't underestimate the threats we face!"

Standing closest to the throne, Sylvie said in a deep voice: "Kem's will has not been fully clarified, and the remaining forces of the Divine Court are still our target! They are hiding in the shadows, they must still be planning some evil plans, we can't slack off!"

"That king of kings is also worth being wary of, since he has raised the banner of Tudor, his goal must be to restore the Tudor Empire. The Loyal Court is gone, and the Tudor Empire is back. Will he tolerate East Fein uniting under the banner of the Alliance of Order and fighting against him?"

"I've also noticed some signs......"

Speaking of this, Sylvie looked at Gordon, and then at the elf Kiri who was huddled in the corner, still wearing a hood and sunglasses: "Some forces have taken advantage of the fact that we are at war with the Loyal God Court and have no time to take care of it, and have begun to weave their evil order. They bewitched the mob, trampled on royal power and noble inheritance, and brought turmoil and unrest to the whole world. ”

Qili snorted coldly, and Gordon also pursed his lips slightly, who is this Sylvie talking about?

"I'm talking about the turmoil in the kingdom of Koster, where a certain prince is said to have become the spokesman of the cruel god Hestor, and is exercising an extremely brutal rule in the kingdom of Koster. ”

"And the Kingdom of Bled, which I just dealt with before I came to deal with a border conflict. A Paladin Order of Ismat has arisen in the territory of the Bled Kingdom, and the leader of the Order, Gronia, in the name of the king, wants to provoke a conflict between us and the Bled Kingdom, so that they can profit from it. ”

"I have dealt a resolute and ruthless response, and I have given King Bled a stern warning not to be so stupid as to be taken advantage of. However, the power of words is limited, and I hope that Your Majesty will allow me to use the forces I have at hand to exert enough pressure on the Kingdom of Bled to make this kingdom, which has been wandering away and thinking that it can live its own life with its head down, obediently submit to us, and at the same time completely eradicate the Order. ”

Gronia......

Kiri gasped, was it the Elonys's fake princess Gronia who had let go in the first place?How did she become the paladin of Ismat?

When Little Red Riding Hood talked to him about Finn's existing present god, he said with certainty that Ismat had fallen a long time ago, and was dragged to death by the resurgent goddess of vengeance, and now it was revived?

"Sylvie, you just finished fighting in the West, and you haven't rested yet," Theresia waved her hand and said, "The affairs of the Bled Kingdom, let's wait until we have determined the overall policy before making a decision." ”

She noticed that the person on the other side of the throne was about to stop talking, and said kindly: "Numan Air, if you have any ideas, just say it, if there is something that worries you, it must be very serious. ”

Numanel's dark brown complexion was not much blood, and it seemed that he had not recovered from yesterday's battle, he saluted, and said in a somewhat weak voice: "What I am worried about is just a small matter, Your Majesty has moved the sealing place of the Benuin gods to the farther east, although the hidden danger of Valentine has been cleared, there are still millions of sand people on Benunin's side." If the news leaks out, the breath of the Benuin god is also sensed by the sandmen, and it is inevitable that there will be people with ill intentions to trick the sandmen into gathering and making trouble under the banner of the Benuin gods. ”

"No need if, the news must have leaked", Theresia's words were a little bitter, she didn't mention half a word in her communication with the Benuin gods, especially the mother goddess Varuna, but she changed the location of the seal and cut off her left hand, there must be something that can't be said to outsiders.

She said flatly: "The Benuin gods are no longer a problem, but the matter you mentioned is indeed a trouble, let me think about it again." ”

Then he turned to another person: "Teacher, what is your opinion?"

Medi, who was in charge of the magical affairs of the Order Alliance, nodded and said with a smile, "The threats you two talked about are indeed worth paying attention to, but I don't think these things are the core issues we face. The most important thing now is to promote the full integration of magicians with secular society, and build a happier world for the people on the ruins left behind by the eradication of the Loyal Divine Court. ”

"Our magic technology has developed by leaps and bounds, and the joint communication network has already begun to bear fruit. These changes have not only made the army stronger, but also benefited the people. Grand Duke Tangus is right when he says that we already have the conditions to establish a new order. ”

The people nodded their heads, they didn't care about what Sylvie and Numael talked about, and in terms of interests, of course, the marshals and generals would make a big deal about the enemy, so as not to hide all the birds.

The war has been fought for more than two years, from the initial high-level professional fighting, to the current rain of bullets, artillery fire, magic explosives are about to catch up with the power of small forbidden spells, this change has made too many people feel difficult to adapt.

At the beginning of the war, ten legions were a terrible army, but by the time of the Siege of Valentine, what were the ten legions? Duke Prell's magic guide car force was completely destroyed in less than an hour!

No one can imagine what the war will become if it continues. But everyone has a clear and strong feeling that the power of the individual will become smaller and smaller, and even the legend will no longer be able to dominate the victory or defeat of the war by one person.

Such a future would undoubtedly make it difficult for the king and the Grand Duke to sleep, and it would seriously deviate from the "new order" advocated by Theresia.

Medi is right when she says that it is time to apply the magic technology developed in the war to the people, so that the people can taste the fruits of victory and let the people live a better life.

Of course, "the people" must have meant the nobles, the clergy, the magicians, and their dependents and attendants, not the lowly professionals and commoners. They are lowly pariahs, not people, and it is a great blessing to be able to drink some soup with them.

"Brinto, what is your opinion?"

The queen did not comment, but instead asked another adviser.

Brinto, who has no official position in the League of Order and has always been silent, seems to be in the mud: "Your Majesty, I agree with everyone that it is necessary to build a new order and to guard against threats. ”

Just as everyone was smiling and the queen frowned, Brynto said, "But I don't think anyone has seriously thought about a problem. Whether it is to build a new order or to guard against potential threats, we need a strong, wise, and convincing leader who can lead us. ”

The hall fell silent suddenly, and the queen's brow furrowed even tighter.

, this is the rhythm of the yellow robe!

Kiri could tell, and for a moment she didn't know if it was Theresia's instructions or Brinto's own intentions.

The atmosphere was cold for a while, and people began to question, of course, the tone was weak, and the words were tactful.

"Who else is more convincing and justified than Her Majesty?"

"What do you mean, Brinto, do you want everyone to choose a new leader?"

"Her Majesty has led us to victory in this war! This is enough to prove that our alliance of order is united and strong! It can solve any problem! Face any challenge!"

Of course, there were different voices, and after exchanging glances with several Grand Dukes of Redstone, they all sided with Brinto.

"Construction is more arduous and complex than war, and our new order does require new forms of organization. ”

"The mission of the Order Alliance has been completed, and the Oath of the Broken Tower should open a new chapter!"

"Yes, it's time for the people to feel a new breath!"

Differences of opinion arose, and people quickly split into camps, and a dispute began over the two sides. On the one hand, it is said that Her Majesty's new order is a return to tradition, and to break tradition is to go against the Queen's wishes. On the one hand, tradition and nominal are not contradictory, and that the new order needs to be justified.

The two sides quarreled hotly, and the queen seemed to be really unprepared for this, and was speechless for a long time.

At this time, a childish child's voice suddenly sounded, and the quarrel came to an abrupt end.

"Everyone is shouting that the stepmother is unparalleled in the world, but there are many kings, how can this be considered unparalleled?"

It was the title "Mother-In-law" that shut up the mouth, and it was the little king Jon of Alanis. Moreover, everyone was trying their best to avoid the essence of the problem, but little Jon was stabbed on the spot.

"Tudor the Great led the people to defeat the invasion of the dark elves, and the Stepmother led the people to eliminate the evil forces that oppressed everyone for more than a thousand years.

The little king held his head high and said with a righteous attitude: "Only the name of the empress is worthy of the stepmother and worthy of being unparalleled in the world!"

"Jon!"

Theresia looked a little caught off guard, and said sternly: "Do you want your stepmother to be proud of her achievements? I said a long time ago that neither the empire nor the church is needed by the people!"

"Your Majesty, the Church that rules directly over the people is certainly not what the people need," Brynto said, "because it is contrary to the principle that mortals should face the gods directly, and not across the Church, which is also your Majesty's belief." ”

Theresia nodded and said, "Yes, that's the most important thing. Only in this way can we put an end to the distortion of God's will by evil people, and we will not repeat the mistakes of the incense. ”

"But to do this, it is impossible for such a temporary organization as the League of Order to do," Brynto said, "only an empire can do it, and the church that rules the people is bad, because the church necessarily distorts the divine will, but the empire that rules the people is good and bad." ”

Brinto bowed deeply: "If there is a good empress, there is a good empire." ”

Theresia calmed down and said with a faint smile: "When I was here, I still had such self-confidence, but I am a mortal, it is impossible to live forever, I am gone, what will the empire become?"

"The empire founded by Tudor the Great collapsed in about two hundred years, and the emperor had a mixed reputation for it. I ask myself, how can I trust that the Empire will always guard our order?"

Brynto was confident: "Your Majesty, the focus is not on the future, but on the present. The epoch is not yet complete, and greater challenges await us. Let's not talk about the god wars and the apocalyptic catastrophes that will inevitably occur in the future, let's talk about the king of kings, Romulus, if he establishes the second Tudor empire...... No, it's not if, it's for sure! At that time, in what name will Your Majesty continue to protect the people of East Finn?"

Theresia was stunned, and the hall resounded with a murmur of chatter, indeed, this is a great trouble!

"Consultant Brynto is right!"

Archduke Tangus took the opportunity to stand up and take a stand: "If we are only united under the banner of the League of Order, we will not be able to legally prevent certain countries from throwing themselves into the Second Tudor Empire!

Some people weakly argued: "But we may not necessarily be their enemies......"

It was Count Sunset in the Forgotten Forest who spoke, and the people scoffed. Sharp ears, tailwinds, and even half-blood mongrels really can't be trusted, and the half-elf patriarch's face suddenly turned as red as a monkey's ass.

"I'm going to take the liberty of saying it!"

Another clear voice sounded, it was a person standing in the corner of the hall, obviously of a very low status, but no one opened his mouth to laugh, this is the most capable general in the Order Alliance, except for Sylvie, everyone is recognized as the most capable general.

Of course, a certain duke is not counted, and everyone subconsciously does not regard him as a general or their own person.

It was the commander of the Seventy-fourth Legion of the Allied Army, Remako, who was able to appear here because of his status as the fifteenth prince of Sachiton, the special representative of the kingdom.

"If the king of kings establishes an empire, we are still an alliance of order, and the two sides really fight, in terms of morale, organization, magic technology and the use of strategy and tactics, the difference between the two is very big whether there is a unified empire standing behind the army or a scattered alliance. ”

Qi Li sighed very emotionally, this kid is making rapid progress, and he already has the style of a commander.

Rimako's words were a bit awkward, but except for a few people, including the little king Jon who was scratching his head, everyone else was quite shaken. Those in high positions naturally understand this truth, and when the strength of other aspects is not enough to win, the power of justification is extraordinarily strong.

Theresia's expression was obviously tangled, and she was about to speak, when Gordon, who represented the Mage Federation, spoke again.

"Although I did not attend the alliance meeting held in Tangus last year, I still have an impression of some of the remarks. ”

"I remember someone saying at the meeting that the goal of our Alliance of Order is to eliminate the monopoly of the Church on the will of God, to ensure the sovereignty of the state, and to ensure that mortal affairs are decided by mortals. Outside of this goal, it's all about the details. ”

"To that end, the man said, we need to carefully control the affairs of the supernatural, whether it is the local church or the magician, and submit to the management of the state. But the power of the clergy and magicians crossed the borders of the existing state, and the existing kingdom principalities alone were simply not capable of doing such a thing. ”

The man proposed that the queen set up a ministry to manage these affairs. ”

"At the time, everyone was ...... There is no such need. ”

Speaking of coughing, exhaling and low laughter in this hall, the atmosphere seemed very awkward, and Qili also subconsciously touched her nose, isn't this talking about herself...... No, Richie?

"Don't you think there's no need for that now?"

Gordon glanced at everyone and said with a faint smile: "We can initially build a joint communications network, which can operate very well, and have made great contributions to our war, isn't it because of the joint communications committee directly managed by the queen?"

"If we want to promote magic technology to serve the people, and to establish a happy and beautiful new order, can we do it by relying on the annual alliance meeting?

"There are a lot of threats just mentioned, so it's impossible for us to disband all the legions, so should we have to send legions from various countries to cobble together as in the past, instead of creating a standing army to defend everyone?"

His laughter became louder: "When these departments are set up one by one, when these works go deep into one country, isn't our collective already a bigger country, and our queen is not doing what an empress should do?"

He turned to the queen and bowed deeply: "Your Majesty, you are now a queen, and we owe you a crown." ”

Jon raised his hand and shouted, "Yes, Crown!"

People looked at each other, but even those who agreed did not dare to express their position rashly because they did not know what Teresia was thinking.

Theresia pursed her lips and asked, "What's this...... That's Hathaway's opinion too?"

Gordon nodded: "No, it's the opinion of the entire Mage Federation. ”

He continued: "As for Hathaway, her exact words are that just an alliance of order cannot allow magicians to fully integrate into the world, and there will always be some magicians with high eyes who will try to override their power over the principality of the kingdom, and maybe the alliance of order will become an alliance dominated by magicians in the future." ”

"If it were an empire, even she, the speaker of the High Council, would bow down to that crown. After all, it represents the supreme power of mortals, the will of all mortals, and it is not an existence that magicians dare to despise or even blaspheme. ”

Gordon's words were not only on behalf of Hathaway, but also on behalf of all magicians, and it was quite surprising that it was so frank and straightforward.

Only Qi Li sneered secretly, a unified empire, of course, it is more convenient for you to use magic to dominate the power, and it is not the way of directly ruling mortals like the old magic empire, but through technology, commerce and money to rule the world. The river of freedom that Hathaway pursued would grow like maggots on the rotting corpses of this empire.

When the time comes, you will lead the oppressed mortals, as liberators, to smash the crown to the ground, trample it to pieces, and throw it into the dunghill.

Gordon's words were more direct: "The Mage Federation is willing to accept the full supervision of the Empire, so that the mages can rightfully obtain the status and glory worthy of their power, not as they are now, even if they are just the son of the Grand Duke of a small principality, because they are also members of the League Council, they can dictate all mages." ”

"It looks like you're not satisfied with the current situation", Theresia didn't know what to say for a while, but she responded with such words, which made Gordon bow again: "Your Majesty has wronged, we just hope that the magician will not be regarded as an alternative, and can work with the clergy to benefit the people with peace of mind." ”

Theresia looked at Medi, as if to confirm the sincerity of Gordon's words, and Medi nodded slightly.

At this point, the queen finally became a little restless, and she scanned the hall, as if seeking the advice of someone reliable, and finally her eyes fell on Qili, who was huddled behind the crowd, desperately holding her head down.

With a height of more than two meters, how to bow his head and shrink in the crowd, he stands out from the crowd.

"So, Crimson Saint Daughter, didn't your Pope have anything to say about it?"

Theresia's tone was a little annoyed: "He ran so well, he couldn't contact him, what happened to Erxiang yesterday was probably related to him." ”

Honestly, it's relevant!

Qi Li smiled bitterly, she learned about Sunny last night through Alishan's Styx Power transmission, although the details are not clear, but the changes in Erika are obviously inseparable from Sunny Nymph.

Thinking that the millions of citizens of Erxiang have been corrupted, Qili has mixed feelings in her heart.

Personally, she, like Theresia, felt that those people deserved it. But from the perspective of humanitarianism and revolutionary causes, after all, it is a million lives, and countless witches who have not been rescued, and there is no humanity to gloat.

No matter how much responsibility Sunny should bear, she still felt a little guilty in her heart.

"My lord and Li Qi do have some connection to the matter of Erxiang, but I don't know the specific situation. ”

Alisa relays Sunny Ny's discovery in the Well of Divine Strength, which must be explained to Theresia, and Chilly has to take responsibility.

Qi Li said again: "As for the things we are talking about now, Li Qi also told me a long time ago, and his attitude has never changed. ”

There was another buzz in the hall, and Theresia's hand subconsciously pinched the handle of the throne.

What is Richie's attitude, who is not clear?

Today's scene, as early as the Tangus meeting, he seems to have seen it.

Many people present were either sarcastic or laughing at that time, and drove Li Qi out of the conference hall together, thinking of the scene at that time, these people were subconsciously happy.

Good thing that guy isn't here!

Qi Li said again: "He said that whether it is the queen or the empress, there is no absolutely right choice, the important thing is which is more suitable for the situation and can solve the problem better." ”

Theresia pinched the handle with both hands, the prosthetic hand was clearly the work of a master magician, and only a faint mechanical sound was emitted, but at this moment, the hall was extremely silent, and the sound was unusually clear.

As if stung by this voice, Theresia shivered slightly, and said bitterly: "Yes, I'm different too." ”

Hathaway, we are standing together at this time, and we are all happy to see the birth of a great centralized empire......

Qi Li continued to make persistent efforts: "He also said that if the Second Tuduo Empire was born first, it would be troublesome. Doing the same thing at that time will be seen as a clumsy imitation, and it will also create a needless obstacle to equal communication between the two sides, and perhaps the great war between East and West will begin there. ”

There was silence in the hall for a few more moments, and then a loud shout erupted.

"Your Majesty is a well-deserved empress!"

"Coronation, Empress!"

"Her Majesty the Empress is unparalleled in the world!"

The chaotic shouts gradually converged: "Crown, crown, crown!"

There is no more urgent and realistic reason for this reason!

Theresia waved her hand repeatedly: "I—I still have to think about it, think about it seriously......"

Qi Li shouted along and said secretly, this is a let's go, just come twice more.

Even if it is deliberately promoted, it is a little excited at this time, and Finn's history is finally about to enter a new chapter.

What will be the name of this empire, and what new name will Theresia have, it's really exciting.
