Chapter 687: The Transcendent Who Gathered
Purenlius's plan has not changed much, but he needs to divide his troops into two ways to act, because he is always followed by cultists along the way, and it is obvious that the infiltration of the Zegus Kingdom is very serious, so Purenlius will carry Princess Haidai's token directly to the royal capital to contact the princess's close ministers, while the Saint Seiya is temporarily stationed in the bluebell territory to wait for news from Patel, the son of the earl.
If there is no news of Patel in the time after Poenlius sends back the message, then the Saint Seiya will escort the princess quietly to the royal capital to start planning.
The Saint Seiya was noncommittal about Perenlius' behavior of putting himself at risk, but the Grand Knight Captain Belum proposed a difference, after all, in the eyes of the Grand Knight Chief, both Perenlius and the five Saint Seiyas were outsiders, no matter how much Princess Haidai trusted them, but Belum still thought that there should be a trustworthy person in the Zegus Kingdom to handle this matter.
'Is there anyone else in the Bluebells Territory who can be trusted 100 per cent?'
However, Haidai's words made Belum speechless, now the territory of the Blue Bell is leaderless, and it has been infiltrated by cultists like this before, and Belum does not dare to guarantee that he can find an absolutely loyal candidate.
Haydai now has absolute trust in Perenlius, and in terms of form, she can't distrust the other party, although Perenlius's identity is mysterious, at least he is definitely not a cultist, and he also has enough wisdom and strength to fully undertake this task, and may even be better than he did.
Up to now, the chief knight Belum also probably knows some things, the princess was attacked, the cultists infiltrated the Zegus Kingdom, the royal family members colluded with the cultists, any of these things are a big deal, and now the other party is very likely to directly squeeze the entire Zegus Kingdom before the arrival of the Holy Capital after the failure of the attack on Princess Haidai, and then leave the turbulent and chaotic Zegus Kingdom.
This assassination of the Lanlinger Territory and Count Raymond may be the prelude to the whole operation, and the only thing the princess can do now is to put the whole country under martial law before the other party can do it, and then clear the cultists through the Holy Capital. In simple terms, a coup d'état!
It is extremely taboo to talk about nobles and lords who are in high positions of power. Coup d'état', after all, it is a game of gambling with one's life, if it was in the past, then even the great knight chief who doesn't like to participate in political things will not approve too much of Count Raymond's participation in this kind of gambling that is either glorious and rich or broken, but now the assassination has shown that the other party has regarded the entire bluebell territory as an existence that must be eliminated, and there is no other way than to follow the princess to gamble on this one.
If the cultists really win. At that time, let alone the bluebell territory, it is the entire Zegus kingdom whether it will be able to continue to exist is still two words.
Belum thought about it, but now the important thing is to find Young Master Patel first, these days the guards who were originally sent out to find the young master have been dispatched back, and after investigation, there are many faces and people with suspicious identities, just as the man named Poenlius thought, the other party is really ready to kill people.
"Then let's use the mirror spell to make contact, is there a water mage in the Blue Bell Territory who can use this spell?"
"There's a mage who can, and I'll entrust him. Belum said after a moment's thought.
Due to the urgency of time, Perenlius planned to leave today. However, before making the final preparations, Elcid approached Perenlius and took out something that he hoped Perenlius would help him a little with.
"This is a communication wizard┉┉A new magic guide that you haven't seen before, do you have one you carry?" Perenlius asked, looking at the magic guide handed over by Elcid.
"Do you know how to use this?"
"Of course. ”
"I tried it in the city we first met, called Qom, but something seems to have gone wrong, no matter how I used it, there was no signal, only some strange noises, I don't know if I was using the wrong method or if this thing was malfunctioning." ”
Speaking of which, Elcid also took great care to hand over the complete set of manuals that Yalin handed over to him, and took a copy of Perenlius to read. The other party looked at it for a moment and didn't say anything, and began to observe the communication magician.
Problems with the magic guide have been bothering Elcid. The five of them didn't understand how this thing worked, and they didn't know if it was broken or if it was the wrong way to use it, but now that they saw that Perenlius seemed to know some things about magic, they hurriedly took out the magic guide to see if the other party could help him get this thing right.
After observing for a while, Pernlius returned the magic guide: "It's broken, the magic crystal and engraved circuit inside have been damaged due to overload. ”
"So┉┉Can it be fixed?"
"I've never seen this brand new communication magician. It would take a lot of time to understand the internals to fix it, but I don't have that time right now. If you're willing to leave this wizard to me for the time being, I can take the time to see if it can be repaired, and to be honest, I'm also interested in this new construction and use of legal techniques. ”
Elcid said that he was helpless, after all, this magic guide was given by Yalin. Whether you can use it or not, you must carry it with you, otherwise damage is a problem, and if you lose it, it will be another problem.
For the departure of Purenlius, in fact, I don't know why, Elcid always vaguely felt that it was not as simple as helping Princess Haidai to contact the close ministers of the royal capital, and Purenlius seemed to be deliberately avoiding the personnel of the Holy Capital, and the Holy Warrior Philin and the Knights of the Holy Capital were rushing overnight, and it was expected to arrive at the territory of the Blue Bell in two days.
And just when Elcid and the others were temporarily resting in the restless territory of the Zeguth Kingdom, another team of people sent by Arin behind them to search for the Children of the Star also quietly entered this troubled country.
The white dragon Alexis, entrusted by the order of Arin, embarked on a journey to the west of the continent with the dark elf Celian, who also has the power of the child of the star, compared to the saint warrior who was just looking for the traces of the child of the star, the original order Alexis got was to try to bring the son of the star back after finding it, and if it was really impossible to bring it back, it was necessary to ensure that the son of the star was not coveted by other forces.
With Serian by her side, who can sense the son of the star, and also holds a magic guide that can automatically identify the direction of the child of the star, Alexis carries it along the way~Or to say that she escorted Celian and quietly followed behind Elcid and the others, but compared to the Saint Seiya, Alexis, as a dragon, didn't have to forge any identity certificates, and the dragon's flying ability could move in the sky unimpeded, but considering that the Holy Capital was after all the territory of the Emerald Green Dragon and the Dragon Alliance, after entering the sphere of influence to which the Holy Capital belonged, Alexis still had to return to her human form and put on the 'sincere deception' and move forward step by step.
Although she slept in the open along the way, Alexis felt that Alexis was okay with the dragon's strong physique, and Celian had gone through a lot of hard training since becoming a priest of the Holy Capital, and she was used to it.
After entering the sphere of influence of the Holy Capital, although Alexis tried to avoid crowds and towns along the way, there were still situations where there was no way to avoid it, at least when she needed to go directly to a farther area, she needed to use the transportation system in the town, and in some towns, when Celian saw the temple that believed in the five supreme gods, she couldn't help but have some thoughts in her heart.
Celian really wanted to run to the temple desperately to expose Alexis's dragon identity, but when she thought that her companion was still being held hostage by the White Dragon King Arin in the Arnold Mountains, not only that, the soul contract in her body was also firmly bound to herself, and before leaving, the White Dragon King Arin gave himself an order to obey Alexis, and it was because of this order that the soul contract in his body faithfully carried out the order along the way.
Celian, who originally thought that she might find some contract loopholes after staying away from the White Dragon King Yalin, was sad to find out that Alexis had replaced Yalin as her new master, and the coercive power of the contract in Celian's own body made the dark elf girl suffer a lot along the way, and Celian could even swear that the contract used by the White Dragon King Yalin in his body was so vicious and terrifying that Rose would bow down when he saw it.
"It's best not to think about things you shouldn't think about, if you don't feel like you've had enough of it┉┉"
"I know. ”
The familiar lines rang in Selian's ears, and the Dark Elf girl could only reply with a wry smile.
The two walking on the road, Selian deliberately wore robes and veils in order to hide her identity, although in the teachings of the Holy Capital, there is no discrimination against believers who are willing to belong to the goddess of the moon, Elisetsu, but the dark elves have indeed accumulated too many bad reputations in this world for thousands of years, and sometimes it is good to reduce some necessary troubles.
On the other hand, Selian was also quite envious of the ring that Alexis was wearing, a powerful dragon became a human in the blink of an eye after wearing that ring, and the breath from the inside to the outside completely became human, even if he walked next to her, he couldn't feel the power of the dragon at all.
It's incredible that a ring with the ability to disguise and deceive perfectly.
And just as Celian was thinking about it, she suddenly felt Alexis grab her hand and squeeze it tightly, as if she had seen some kind of dangerous enemy. And not far in front of the two, three people, a man and two women, were slowly walking towards the two. (To be continued.) )
