Chapter 763: Faith

Caucasus, above the wasteland.

Among the thousands of acres of fertile fields that sprouted and matured overnight, Paganini counted the specific numbers in his mind and asked Charles, "It's almost here, right?"

In the middle of the wheat field, Charles held a handful of wheat seeds in his hand, and seemingly endless seeds flowed out of the gaps in his fingers, fell to the ground, and took root and sprouted after his footsteps......

The people behind hurriedly followed, poured water and fertilized, and after just a quarter of an hour, another acre of wheat field with a terrifying yield matured.

Charles rested for a moment.

Under the scorching sun, Charles wiped the sweat from his forehead with a wet towel, took out a jug and drank it, and let out a long breath to answer Paganini's question.

"We can't stop yet. ”

He shook his head and sighed: "The current production is enough to supply the front-line operations, but there are still many people in the country who cannot eat." ”

Paganini looked down at the worm under his feet and suddenly asked:

"Can you hold it?"

“...... It's good to survive this while, and you can have big fish and big meat in the future. ”

Compared to the past, Charles's face was a little pale, as if he had lost too much blood. He smiled reluctantly and coughed violently, choking on the blood in his lungs.

The injuries left by the Blue King have not yet recovered.

Paganini didn't speak again.

In silence, he stared at Charles's mutilated tail finger and his bleeding and pale skin, and his eyes became somewhat complicated and cloudy.

After a long time, Paganini made a sound:

"Charles. ”

"Huh?" Charles looked back, seeing Paganini's silent expression.

"No, nothing. ”

Paganini shook his head, smiled, and said nothing.

Just raise your head and look up at the sky.

He was just wondering if the void god that the Holy City had worshipped back then had half the kindness of the Charles, would his choice be different?

No, sure enough, you're going to betray yourself, right?

For a person like himself, who is naturally rebellious, he will do anything for the sake of strength and the mystery of music theory. But now, he has the power...... only to find that there is nothing worthy of one's loyalty anymore.

He sighed softly and lowered his eyes.

Besides, the world ...... Do you really need something as unreasonable as a god?

A few hours later, the Golden Palace.

In the darkness of the night, candles were lit and illuminated the entire vast palace as if it were day. After rejecting the light source supplied by the ether, the pure flame illumination made this steel palace a little more solemn and cold, and the spirit was overwhelming.

On the throne, the emperor banged on his crutches and looked down at the Burgundian envoys in front of him.

"Alliance?"

"That's right. ”

The young man named Don Juan smiled: "Asgard and Burgundy have a long history of relations, and they are neighbors separated by a strip of water. Now that Asgard is in trouble, our country will not sit idly by.

As long as an alliance can be formed, our country is willing to send out the Mirage fleet and share the pressure on the sea for Asgard. On the southern front of the Caucasus, the Burgundians were also willing to send the Foreign Legion as mercenaries to fight in place of Asgard. ”

The emperor's expression was indifferent and unmoved, and Don Juan's complexion did not change, and he continued to add weight upwards:

"Not only that, but when necessary, our country can awaken the holy sword left behind by the primordial king, the ...... of Joyeus"

Hearing that name, the emperor's eyebrows raised slightly.

Joyeuse......

The sword of gold, the sword of victory, and the sword of glory are also the swords of the king of the sun back then, known as the sword of the scorching sun. Before dying, the Sun King blessed his sword with all the power of his body, turning it into an artifact.

Purely in terms of power, it is by no means inferior to the sword in the stone, and in terms of destructive power, it is even stronger.

After all, this is the destruction of the purest Variation faction!

"The emperor of your country is really willing to spend blood. ”

The Emperor chuckled softly, not knowing whether it was mockery or anticipation.

For hundreds of years, Joyeuse was sealed in a sanctuary beneath the royal palace, drawing on the power of the kingdom day and night. Its importance is even higher than that of the 'Archangel Man-made Holy Maiden'.

It's a pity that for hundreds of years, no one has been able to gain its recognition and become the owner who can match it.

The only way to unleash him is to pay for the emperor's blood and lifespan.

Burgundy's willingness to make such an important investment was beyond the expectations of the Emperor of Asgard. It's a pity that the idea is very good, but the appetite is a bit exaggerated.

The Emperor bowed his head and stared at the book of alliance beside him and sneered.

It's true that 'timely rain' is good, but unfortunately, what is said is good, but the price is too high, it's just wishful thinking.

As a condition of the alliance, Asgard will not only have to pay Burgundy huge fees, but also transfer dozens of forbidden technologies and bury more troubles.

If the alliance succeeds, Asgard's decades-long savings will probably be so easily poached by the Burgundians.

The Emperor chuckled softly and tossed the letter of alliance aside: "You want too much, don't you think the price is a bit excessive?"

"Of course, these are negotiable. ”

Don Juan smiled, "You can make the decision and cross out the technology transfer and national debt part of it, but can your country make some small concessions in other aspects?"

The Emperor's eyes became subtle:

"For example?"

"Let's say, 'relief'. ”

Don Juan bowed his head sincerely: "Burgundy has long longed for the faith to be recognized by the Order, and now that Asgard has enjoyed the blessings of the gods for so long, can you consider sharing the Lord's relief with Burgundy for the first point?"

The emperor did not speak.

The atmosphere grew cold, and a faint chill spread from the throne.

After a long silence, the Emperor burst out laughing, his laughter cold and cold.

He didn't expect that the Burgundians had an even greater appetite than he had imagined...... They want not only small profits in front of them, but also want to dig directly into the roots of Asgard, and they want to enjoy the treatment that Asgard has received after the Third Amendment Act.

Even, welcome the Order into the kingdom and master the background and secrets of the Order......

These bastards want to cut off their beards from Asgard!

What's the use of having more gold? Can you buy victory and power? No matter how much forbidden technology you master, under the order of a ban, you will destroy what you should not destroy?

If you can get the support of the Order, if you can get the status of Asgard, with the support and technology of the Order, under the mobilization of the state apparatus, everything will be at your fingertips!

Didn't Asgard become the behemoth it is today, with the support of the Order?

Although the Order has fallen into weakness and has lost its suppression and authority over the nations, its own heritage is still amazingly rich. No one knows how many amazing secrets and powers are hidden in this organization that has led the human world for hundreds of years......

For Burgundy, this is a great opportunity for a lifetime, even if it costs a lot, as long as it can be favored by the Order, then it is all worth it!

"Do the Burgundians love to dream so much?"

The Emperor stared indifferently at the envoy at the bottom of the steps, "Since you are so fond of talking in your dreams, you don't need to think about forming an alliance this time. After all, there's an old saying......"

He paused, his expression becoming mocking:

"- War, let the Burgundians go away. ”

Don Juan was silent.

After a long time, he shrugged helplessly: "That's a pity...... I hope that Your Majesty will change your mind as soon as possible, after all, Your Majesty's enthusiasm for boxing cannot last long. ”

With that, he saluted with grace and manners, and turned away.

-

Outside the palace, the entourage who had been waiting for a long time hurriedly greeted him and put on a heavy robe for him to resist the terrible cold of the Golden Palace in the middle of summer.

In the carriage, an old man named Richelieu asked, "Your Highness, how are the talks?"

"Either the Asgardians are crazy, or the Asgardians aren't crazy, in short, they didn't say yes. ”

Don Juan took the hot tea and drank it down, sneezed, and wiped his snot in embarrassment: "However, this is also expected. Teacher Richelieu, have you contacted the people from the Order?"

"With some of my previous connections, I made an appointment with a cardinal to meet the day after tomorrow. ”

"Good. ”

Don Juan nodded, gritted his teeth, and the gentle mask dissipated, revealing an enraged grin, "Asgard doesn't want to, let's talk to the Order directly." ”

"The Order won't agree either. Richelieu looked at him, "You're doing useless work. ”

"No, we're taking the lead. ”

Don Juan leaned back in his chair and looked calm: "Whether it's the Asgardians, or the Order, I want them to know the way out we have prepared for them here." It's just that after they refused this time, don't think about such a discount next time. ”

"Are you so confident in the situation of this war?" Richelieu looked at him with a complicated expression: "Why do you think Asgard will definitely lose?"

"No, I don't know if Asgard will lose, I just have faith in my former friends. ”

Don Juan's eyes drooped, as if staring at a bygone time:

"I'm sure he'll win. ”

At this moment, the Golden Palace.

Only the emperor and the old musician remained in the palace.

"Listening to them quarrel all afternoon, you also worked hard. The emperor seemed to be clear about the old musician's predicament, and he was still in the mood to make a little joke: "Is there any countermeasure?"

The old musician was silent for a moment, and then replied, "For the sake of today, we have to start an all-out war in advance." ”

For Asgard, it is not difficult to face two fronts of attack at the same time, and it is even said that there is spare energy. But not to win, for Asgard, is a disgrace.

Especially after Anglo capsized earlier, Asgard desperately needed a full win to be inspired. Instead of being so mired in war and having an awkward tug-of-war with the other side......

"Your Majesty, please authorize the awakening of the land giants. ”

The old musician pleases.

Awaken the land giants of the present, push your way from the Blanc Fortress, capture the land territory of Anglo in a month, and then counterattack the Caucasus......

"No, you don't. ”

In this regard, the emperor categorically vetoed.

For some reason, the emperor's firm tone suddenly made the old musician feel a little uneasy......
