Chapter 49

"Bit, pay attention to the way you speak to the Pope, are you openly provoking the prestige of the Holy See?" Next to the old man on the balcony walked a man in silver armor with gray hair, a Chinese face, and a light gray beard on his chin, and he said with a serious face.

"That's it, he was so rude to Lord Jiao Huang, he should be sent to the guillotine."

"Get out!"

"Gerry, people like you are not welcome!"

…… The indignant voices of the crowd under the stage came one after another, and the ugly words were all aimed at the evil and arrogant man on the stage.

"It's all a bunch of barking dogs, and you defend this beloved Pope so much, come up if you have a kind." The wicked man sneered at the excited crowd under the stage.

"What do you say?! See that we don't put you on the fire for this heretic who insults the Pope. A big man in the crowd rolled up his sleeves and said viciously with his thick arms exposed.

The crowd stirred, visibly enraged by what the arrogant guy on stage was saying, and many of them were ready to go up and beat the guy.

"You've given me enough, Bit, don't think that you can act recklessly if you are the commander of the front line appointed by His Majesty, this is the holy place of Gerry, the holy place of celebrations, don't try to provoke us." On the balcony stood an old woman wearing glasses, magic robes, and a pointed magic hat on her head, followed by a female magician.

"I always thought that the famous imperial general was a heroic man, but I didn't expect that it was such an impolite person, it was really disappointing." On the balcony next to the old grandmother, a young man in a gorgeous dress was lying on the fence, holding his chin with one hand and looking at the stage and said leisurely.

"It's really infuriating that someone has disturbed a good celebration like this." On the other side of the balcony, there was a faint voice of a woman, the woman who spoke had long soft pale pink hair, a black hat similar to a military cap on her head, and a uniform with black and white trim, highlighting her bumpy devilish figure, the badge logo in the center of the hat and on the chest was tattooed with a mighty eagle with gold trim and wings flying high, representing the country to which she belonged, she sat upright on the chair, and her white-gloved hand elegantly shook the hot tea in the teacup on the table with a small spoon, Standing next to him were two handsome women who were also wearing black uniforms.

"I don't want to say anything more, but it seems a little inappropriate for you to do this, Lord Bit." A man with a big belly said with a smile, he was all over his body, each finger was wearing a beautiful ring that looked valuable, the clothes on his body were inlaid with tiny diamonds, shining brightly, even his teeth were made of gold, and sitting next to him was a very cute little purple-haired girl wearing a lilac princess dress and a red bow, the little girl was holding a thick book in her hand, looking indifferent, looking at the book silently, surrounded by a few big men, It looks like a bodyguard.

"It turned out to be Dean Meranda of the Peter Academy of Magic, General Silusi, the Valkyrie of the Duchy, and you, a fat merchant who is greedy for money, if you have any dissatisfaction with me, just say it, I will definitely listen carefully!" The evil man, the Empire's General Bit, said with a smile on his face, but it was clear that he was speaking in a heavier tone when he said the last sentence, clearly provoking everyone.

"Lord Duke, this seems to be getting worse, should we stop it." Next to the wide single sofa, Sven Man, who was wearing a blue uniform, stood beside him and said worriedly.

"Well, I knew this guy was going to get me in trouble." The melancholy man sitting on the single couch sighed, got up from the couch, and walked to the stone fence of the balcony.

"Okay, everyone, today is one of the important celebrations of the empire, General Bit, I know that you have a mission sent by His Majesty, but doing so, it is also a loss of face for the empire, you go down first, completing the task assigned by Your Majesty is the first priority, and the guests from various countries give me a little face, let this matter go down first, after all, the celebration is important, and I will apologize later." The man with yellow curly hair in a medium hairstyle, with a handsome face, but his eyes were slightly melancholy, giving people a personable aristocratic demeanor, he put his hands behind his back, walked to the balcony and looked at the bit on the stage, and then looked at the people on the nearby balcony and said.

"I see, Duke Myron, then I'll take my leave, so I won't disturb your celebrations, and we'll see you another day." Bit put down the woman in his arms boringly, looked at the people on the platform, and jumped under the stage, and the people under the stage dodged away to make a way for him, although they glared at him angrily, but no one dared to stop in front of him, so let him go.

"Duke Myron, you are serious, since you have said so, we will not say anything." The old woman smiled and said to the melancholy man, and sat back in her original position.

"I don't have any objections, just start the celebration." The woman with long pale pink hair replied in a faint tone and took a sip of the hot tea from the teacup.

"I don't have it anymore, Lord Duke, go on." The fat man said with a grin.

"Then since you have no objections, let the celebration begin, Your Excellency, you must have nothing to complain about, right?" The melancholy man looked at the old man and said with a smile.

"Come back, Bud." The old man said to the beautiful blonde boy on the stage and sat back in his place.

The blonde boy on the stage clenched the sword in his hand, then withdrew the scabbard, glanced at the departing back under the stage, and returned to the old man's side.

"Wow~! That bearded old man is so powerful, and these people look so powerful. Harry was dumbfounded as he looked at the image on the crystal ball.

"Of course, this old man is the Pope, and these guys, although I don't know some of them, but I know this big fat man, he is the richest man in the empire, very rich." The blue-haired girl explained as she touched Harry's head.

"I actually let go of that red-haired arrogant guy, it's so cheap for him, I thought they were going to beat him up, it seems that he has a great background in strength." The sloppy uncle spit out the fruit that only remained of the remains, picked up the toothpick hanging from his ear and stuffed it between his teeth and said.

"His background is indeed very big, he is a great general appointed by His Majesty, a man who commands the army at the front, he should have been on the front line, how could he come back? It's weird. The bald old man said strangely.

"Grandpa, so what did this guy do to get to Ger, right?" The young man thought for a moment and asked suspiciously.

"Well, even so, it's none of our business, we just have to enjoy the party and the celebration." The bald old man nodded in agreement.

"Without this annoying guy, the celebration can finally start officially, Carrily, when will you hear the sound of this crystal ball, although you can see the image, but you can't hear the sound, this feeling is not very good." The dark-haired girl next to the blue-haired girl complained to the cute girl with short pink shoulder-length hair.

"There's no way around it, my magic isn't enough to learn higher magic, and so is the crystal ball, I don't have the money to buy a better one." The cute girl with short pink shoulder-length hair shook her head helplessly and said.

"Young people nowadays, always thinking about vulgar items like money, our noble magic is not something that can be learned by learning, you look at those excellent magicians on the mainland, they have all made great efforts, and the accumulated knowledge has only gained their current status, now, you should study hard, good magic does not necessarily need this kind of luxurious and expensive magic equipment to be released, the true meaning of magic is not..." There is a sense of sadness for the young and the strong and the young who do not work hard.

The brown-haired young man with a dagger on his waist looked at the old man helplessly, and the girls too, they knew the character of this old man, as long as he talked about money, he would start this mode of preaching, saying how difficult and difficult his life was when he was young, how difficult it was, didn't he survive in the end, it sounds good to say that it is education, and the direct point is that he has no money.

"Teacher Shuke, the celebration has begun, you can read it before you talk about it, this is a celebration." The short-haired girl kept pointing to the crystal ball and said, trying to divert his attention.

"Oh, that's it, let's read it first." The old man stopped talking and looked at the crystal ball, the surroundings finally quieted down, and the girl and the boy breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone could watch with peace of mind.

Crystal ball screen ......

"Fortunately, the prayer ceremony for the celebration has been completed, and there is no major problem, otherwise this kid would have caused me a big disaster." The melancholy man sat on the sofa, crossed Erlang's legs and looked at the figure under the balcony, leaving the crowd and said.

"Master Bit's approach is really incomprehensible, and he is still alone." Sven Man, who was standing next to him, said with a wry smile.

"His character has been like this since he was a child, arrogant and arrogant, arrogant and arrogant to people of the same age, but what matches it is his strong strength, don't look at him very recklessly, in fact, he is a very shrewd guy, alas, Your Majesty, the task you gave him is really inexplicable." The melancholy man sighed, and said with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Although the vignette just made the audience very emotional, it was only for a while, and people quickly forgot about it and immersed themselves in the celebratory atmosphere of the celebration.

The host who killed Matt stood on the stage again at some point, obviously there was no magic instrument on his body that could amplify sound, but the voice was very clear to everyone's ears.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the prayer ceremony for the celebration has ended, so what's next? For those of you who have participated in the past festivals, please hold your hands and put them on your chest, and please pray earnestly for the manifestation of the gods. The host held his hands, put them on his chest, and said reverently.

The people in the square fell silent, the men, women and children under the stage learned the posture of the host, praying silently in their hearts, the pale pink haired woman in a black and white-rimmed uniform also did this pose, closed her eyes and prayed earnestly, and the young man lying on the fence also put away his smiling face, stood up straight, and did this pose.

"Alright, my Angela baby, stop reading, go praying." The fat man said to the cute purple-haired girl sitting next to her with a red bow, and then did the same pose himself.

"God, please bless me with a prosperous business and a lot of money, and I will become the richest man on the mainland in the future...", the fat man muttered quietly as he prayed.

The purple-haired girl glanced at him with retarded eyes, closed the book in her hand, handed it to the big man behind her, closed her eyes too, held her hands in front of her chest, and sat on a chair larger than her and prayed.

Everyone, the people in the square were praying sincerely, and the town seemed unusually quiet at this time, and the moonlight was still shining on these pious people.

Harry and Monschente, who were looking at the crystal ball, looked puzzled, not understanding what they were doing in the picture, and the girl with short blue hair saw the two of them looking puzzled, and explained with a smile, "This is the most important part of the celebration, it is the prayer that people make to the god who controls all the flowers in the world, like a custom." ”

"Of course, the purpose of attracting people here is not only that, you should know the legend, the story that has always been told as a fairy tale, actually came true at the last festival, it is said that there was a person who was lucky to find the yellow flower, at that time I remember that people were boiling, it is said that the winner is a woman, but no one knows what she looks like, so mysteriously disappeared." The black-haired girl interjected at this time, and the yellow-haired girl with an expressionless face nodded in agreement.

"Ahem, okay, praying to the gods is to be attentive, how can you gossip, this is disrespect for the gods." The old man made this prayer posture, closed his eyes, coughed a few times in displeasure, and said lightly, his expression looked very reverent.

Hearing the old man say this, the black-haired girl stuck out her tongue apologetically, closed her mouth obediently, and made this prayer posture with the other girls, praying to the gods, Harry and them too, seeing that they were all like this, so they also followed the girl's example, the top of the high clock tower, the breeze blew, and the sloppy uncle did not disturb them at this time, yawned, and looked at the scene presented by the crystal ball silently with sleepy eyes.

After a few minutes, the dim town was quiet, and everyone continued to pray in a posture, suddenly something unexpected happened, the sloppy uncle lying on his side on the clock tower sat up and looked in the direction of the outside of the city, Harry noticed the movement behind him, opened his eyes in confusion, and looked back at the sloppy uncle, but the sloppy uncle's expression seemed to be a little wrong, it looked like he was deeply shocked by something, full of surprise, Harry also looked in the direction he was looking, it was outside the city.

Outside the city, all sides are planted with white flowers, which only bloom once every five years, for about a month, and the rest of the time when the petals are closed, and when they are five years old, they will bloom collectively and beautifully, and they will put away their petals at night, and they will bloom every morning when the sun appears, and not only that, these flowers will undergo some changes on the night of the annual festival, which is called a miracle......

Under the vast night sky, on the endless dim flat ground, the white flowers that had been closed petals were now blooming one after another, releasing their most beautiful and dazzling moments, and the crystal flowers that exuded a soft and holy light bloomed, one after another, from the city wall to the side that could not be seen, and the crescent moon hanging high in the night sky also shone with a bright light on these blooming holy flowers, and a gust of wind struck, blowing a large number of petals on the hills that exuded crystal light, flying all over the sky, The flat land, which was originally full of darkness and silence, is illuminated like a fairyland on earth, which evokes infinite reverie.
