Chapter 220: Hundred Tongues
"Your Highness Miranda, what's wrong?" Lance felt his heart tighten.
Princess Miranda said eagerly: "It's the demons, and Astana, one of the death lords of the demons, has actually arrived in Hitivite Elis. ”
Lance asked in surprise, "Demons, how can the demons go back to you?" ”
"Astana also called a meeting when the envoys of various countries arrived at Hitivite Elis, saying that they wanted peace talks?"
Eve smiled at this time and said, "What's the matter?
But the princess of Milan said, "Eve, I'm afraid it's not what you thought it would be." If there is a peace talk, why should they avoid you? I suggest that we go to Hitivite Elis, for I fear they have some conspiracy. Ever since I returned to Hitivita Elis, the Chud men have taken control of the palace and it seems as if the whole city was hiding from me. I also sent spies and insiders to find out that they were going to hold a secret meeting with the demons. ”
"Without further ado, let's go!" Lance and his party hurried through the congested Venian Pass and headed south to the kingdom of Hitivit.
They crossed the Dragon's Tooth Valley, an ancient battlefield 19 years ago, and then reached the city of Elamaurice in the Lori Plains, where the Lori tribe lived, and they were all halflings who were only twelve years old. And when they reached Eramoris, they sailed down the Lori River, and in three days they reached Hitivite Elis, the capital of the greatest kingdom in the south.
The Kingdom of Hitivita is known as the land of flowers, because on the vast plain of flowers, colorful flowers bloom all year round. There is no winter here, only spring, summer and autumn. When the last day of autumn arrives, the leaves turn yellow and fall, and then spring returns to the kingdom of Hitivite, and the green leaves sprout again overnight.
Therefore, the kingdom of Hitivita is one of the most beautiful kingdoms of man, but Lance and his party did not have the leisure to enjoy the scenery along the way.
When the white towering walls and fortress towers came into view, Lance did not exclaim in his heart, only a sigh of relief: "We have finally arrived." ”
When you enter the gates of Hitivites, you will find that this is not a city wall at all, but a work of art, a huge relief more than 30 meters high.
The walls of Hitivitaelis were not as simple and heavy as those of Idiris. Almost every inch of the walls of the city wall here are carved with exquisite reliefs or giant sculptures ranging from a dozen meters to tens of meters in height. Each sculpture is decorated with gold, silver, and precious stones. The degree of opulence is far from any country. The main gate of the wide city gate has 12 city gate holes, and each gate hole is carved with a sculpture of a righteous god. And Lance and Eve, who came from Idris, naturally chose the city gate hole of the goddess of justice, Flobelga.
The city is ten times the size of Idiris, and the streets are paved with ornate marble bricks, each of which is decorated with elaborate carvings. The wide streets allow ten chariots to walk side by side at once, and the route is filled with goods that include all the world's specialties, even elves and dwarves, as well as beautiful works of art from the Far East.
Loxani, who was visiting Hitivites for the first time, was so excited that she wanted to transform into a dragon and soar over Hitivitel Elis, overlooking the city. But now she can't, for humans, the dragon is still a mysterious and terrifying symbol.
Lance only cares about what the demons are doing here? Could it be to persuade the kingdoms not to send troops to help Idiris? Lance has been organizing the language in his mind at this time, trying to think about what he will say when he meets the envoys of various countries.
However, at this moment, a familiar figure in the distance came on horseback, this person was the Edwin swordsman, he rushed to Princess Miranda, and said, "Flower Sea Castle...... Meeting...... Closeted...... It's a conspiracy ......"
When Princess Mirada heard this, she immediately turned back to Lance and said, "They have already negotiated at the Flower Sea Castle, let's go over quickly!"
They galloped all the way to the Flower Sea Castle. It was an annex estate of the royal family of Hitivites. The royal palace of Hitivites is called the Palace of Kings, and it is where King Hitivites conducts government affairs and receives dignitaries. And Huahai Castle is the residence of the royal family.
Surrounded by beautiful roses, birdsong and flowers, and carefully manicured majestic oak trees stand on both sides of the road. The castle's main building is still as lavish as the walls of Hitivitaelis, but today, it is full of heavily armed swordsmen.
When Lance and the others jumped off their horses to enter the venue, they were stopped by the guards: "Your Royal Highness, Your Majesty the King is in a meeting with the envoys or kings of the 72 kingdoms, principalities, and independent princes, and I specifically ask that you not enter. ”
"You are so bold, even dare I stop you?" Princess Miranda glared at the two soldiers and said, "Say, did the Chud family make you do it?"
The guard just said, "Please leave Her Royal Highness, this is His Majesty's order!"
"Don't think I don't know what the Chud family is up to. Princess Miranda drew her sword, struck the guards with a single blow, and then forced Lance and them into the gates of the Flower Sea Castle.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, please don't break in!
The guards blocked all the way, but no one dared to touch Miranda, after all, although the Chu family controlled half of the country, Princess Miranda also held a lot of power, and neither of them could offend. It's going to make it difficult for these minions.
Just as Miranda and Lance broke into the main hall. At this time, a person suddenly flashed on the side, and said respectfully: "Your Royal Highness, what are you doing here?"
When Princess Miranda saw this, she stopped, glared at the middle-aged man, and said, "Hmph, it turned out to be John Chud, the head of the Chud family?
John Chud said: "Of course, it is the wise guidance and earnest voice of His Majesty the King. ”
"Then continue to listen to my father's earnest voice. Let's go. With that, Princess Miranda was about to pull Lance and they on a detour towards the venue.
But John stood in front of Miranda once again, and smiled and said, "Why should Your Highness be in a hurry? ”
At this moment John went up to Lance and said, "Presumably this is the new Grand Duchess of Editris, the Duchess of Eve, and the retainer of Princess Eve, Lance, Count of Rolai, right?"
With a hint of hostility, Eve said, "Exactly, the name of John, the hundred-tongued bird, and I am also like thunder. But I'm not interested in chewing my tongue with you today, can I get out of the way?"
"Yo yo yo, she is worthy of being the duchess of that barbarian country in the East, and she even speaks with such a smell of gunpowder. John said with a wicked smile, "I have to say, as a barbarian country, your battle of Clay City was indeed well fought. ”
Eve was not angry at John's insult to Adiris's kingdom of barbarians, but said with the same disdain: "Thank you, speaking of victory, our Idris's celebration feast is missing a few of Monetia's sissies to perform the dance." Chance, Duke John, can you help us?"
Lance had to admire, Eve's ability to scold people is also very strong.
John had an ugly look on his face at this point, but he quickly adjusted, and then said, "Well, if your country survives." Well, without further ado. I proclaim His Majesty's will. Invite the Duchess of Evie and the Count of Lance of Idris to the lounge to rest. There's going on in the chamber about your Idris. When the meeting is over, I will inform you of the results. ”
