Queen Laura gasped as she put her sword back into its scabbard, her hands trembling with too much force, and the bloodshot in her eyes hadn't faded from the force of the rage.

Two Guardian Mages cast a healing and calming spirit spell on her.

The queen rescued two people, plus Salmeron, who escaped herself, and finally rescued the trapped guards one by one. The whole time, Felix just watched them, neither launching a new attack nor saying anything.

Salmeron held his sword and said to Felix, "Priest Felix, what do you want to do? We are here to seek and cooperate, not to seek humiliation. ”

Queen Laura said, "All right, teacher. I'm sure it's just a test. Test my suitability as a collaborator of the Temple of Nature. ”

"If a person is not strong, then he has found this humiliation himself, and no one else is to blame. And the strength of a king naturally depends on her subordinates. Felix's words made the queen's guards have a fever on their faces, "But at least judging from the queen's own response, it's okay." You know, Priest Fahs has always been the most appreciative of the survival of the fittest in nature. He never helps the really weak, but only the strong who have not yet become stronger. ”

"So, will we be able to see him?" asked Queen Laura.

Priest Felix pointed at Salmeron, "He is the only one who broke free from the vines on his own, and no one else is qualified to enter the temple to see the Sage." Now, you two, please come with me. ”

Behind the huge doorway was a path up the mountain, and the temple was not a temple, but a small hill, and the priest Felix led Laura and Salmeron up without hurry. Laura felt that the feeling here was very different from the natural temple of the royal capital, if the temple of the royal capital was a well-built and maintained work of art, then this temple gave the impression of a rough and stubborn stone. The mountain at her feet was overgrown with vegetation, and many parts of the trail were even blocked by branches or covered by grass, so that there was no trace of human care. Walking here is like walking in a barren mountain.

Following Priest Felix to the top of the hill, Laura saw a straw hut that was ventilated on all sides, and an old man in a simple priest's robe sat cross-legged in the middle of the straw hut. Priest Felix respectfully walked to the door of the hut and said to the old man inside, "Lord Fahs, Queen Laura is here. ”

Hess, the Golden Bough, glanced up at Queen Laura and Master Salmeron, Laura's gaze met those bland eyes, and she only felt that there was a pressure transmitted to her heart, and she could feel that the pressure was not directed at her, but when you were scrutinized by a giant, you would naturally feel that sense of oppression. They looked at each other for less than a second, and Queen Laura suddenly felt that the scene around her had changed suddenly, and in the blink of an eye, she had arrived in the grass hut.

The eyes that she had been looking at from afar were suddenly close in front of her. At this time, she had a kind of realization that this old man would never allow anything to get out of his grasp, and once she cooperated with him, the fate of the empire would be inseparable from this person.

Priest Fahs spoke, "Queen Laura, I asked you to come here because I know you have a request for me. Now can you tell me what you want?"

"I ......" Queen Laura hesitated for a moment, but she was still ready to tell the truth, the sage in front of her should know everything, since she came here, there was no point in hiding anything, "You should know that the situation in the kingdom is very bad, and it is not an exaggeration to say that there is even a danger of destroying the country." I hope you will save the kingdom from the hands of the rebels. ”

Fahs smiled noncommittally, a few wrinkles forming on his old face, "Then can you tell me what exactly you expect the outcome to be?"

Princess Laura knew very well in her heart what kind of request, what kind of price there would be, she didn't want to play all the cards in her hand, so she hesitated and said: " I hope that you can help me retake the city of Baviria in the west, with this city as a defensive line, we can stabilize the line against Count Carlos, in the south we hope to be able to retake Lagos City, take back the land of Duchess Josefina, and then mediate the hostile relations between us and the Chinese, so that we can fully cope with the attack of the Northern Empire. ”

The Sage of Fahs wrinkled a little deeper, "My Queen, as a king, you are a little bolder. If it's just these demands, you don't have to negotiate with me at all, as long as you can convince Felix, he can do it. ”

"What do you mean?" asked Laura, cautiously.

"Count Carlos and his daughters can be stopped, and even those nobles who have lost their land can be taken back, not to them, but to you," Fahs said. As for the empire in the north...... Your army fought pretty well before. With some help from us, I'm afraid you'll have a bigger advantage, and I think you can fight all the way to Fort Guide and turn this fortress into a new dividing line between the Purple Eagle Empire and the Iberian Kingdom.

As for the Tower of China, this was indeed the most troublesome thing, they actually showed up in the battle a few days ago, a Sage not only won Morales once in the competition, but also easily threw the Margaret priest of the Western Temple into the river. And they have now gathered a large number of master-level masters, and it is not a good way to fight hard against such a force with sages and masters, but we can help you stabilize the defense line and prevent the Tower of China from taking advantage of it. ”

"Although I appreciate your advice, such help is too great for the Kingdom to afford. Queen Laura said.

"No, you can afford this help, my request is very simple, first, I will let you marry my grandson Sherlock, a young man of twenty-six years old, who has crossed the threshold of the high level and has a very good future. Fahs said.

Queen Laura opened her mouth slightly, her eyes showed a little stunned, but this emotion was fleeting, and all that was left was calm, except that her hand betrayed her, and the hand holding the sword was actually trembling uncontrollably by her side at this time, "I know." ”

Fahes nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Second, I want to provide a place in the Iberian Kingdom, and a large number of people, as preparations for the arrival of the Divine City. ”
