The originally noisy bazaar was quiet at this moment, and the trumpet of welcome sounded in the city of Sunday. In the wind and sand, the moon knights followed the queen in two columns towards the open gates.

They rode on their horses, and though their armor was tattered, they all straightened their waists. They are warriors who defend the Moonlight Court, knights who have been glorified by the World Tree. They followed the queen to spread the majesty of the royal court and reunite the barbarians of the West.

Count Ould led a welcoming procession of nobles from the West, riding horses and waiting under the city gates. It's just that the barbarian warriors, including the orc leader Andre, all dismounted and bowed, and greeted the oncoming Moonlight Royal Court envoy team with the highest courtesy.

Seeing such a scene, the nobles found that the revival of the World Tree had brought more serious changes to the Western Realm than they had imagined. If the Queen of the Moon is an ambitious person, then she, the nobles of the Western Realm, will really have to take on the task of guarding the Western Frontier for the Empire.

Count Ould, who relied heavily on the barbarians, was even more preoccupied, in the past, the barbarians were scattered, and he was able to maneuver around it easily, but now he ...... I'm afraid that when the Queen of Moonlight gives an order, half of her army will immediately turn against her.

Count Ould looked at the cavalry of the Moonlight Court marching towards the sun, and gradually saw the elf riding the panther at the head.

She wears a crown, and she must be the Queen of the Moonlight.

But why is the Queen of the Moon so familiar?

Count Ould wiped his eyes......

That's right, Miss Sunny Sky!

Didn't Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess say that she was the head of the Arcane Arts Department of the Oulu Academy in Nurture Waves, the head of the Shenglun City Branch of Oulu Academy, and a member of the Upper Council of Nurture Waves?

During the siege of the Silent Court, she also killed Sylvia, the Sixth Apostle of the Abyss Temple.

How did she become the queen of the Moonlight Court again?

While Count Ould was full of doubts, the procession of the Moonlight Court marched to the foot of the city.

Clear Sky smiled at Count Ould, "I am the magic professor of Oulu Academy, Clear Sky, and the Moonlight Queen of the Moonlight Royal Court. The revival of the World Tree has given me a new responsibility, and I hope that we will be friendly and helpful neighbors in the Westlands in the future. ”

Count Ould immediately saluted the clear sky: "Honorable Her Majesty the Moonlight Queen! Hearing of the resurgence of the World Tree, I and all the Lords of the Empire in the West are very happy that the blessings of the World Tree will benefit us all.

May the friendship between the Golden Shield Empire and the Moonlight Royal Court remain.

Her Royal Highness Agatha, the eldest princess of the Empire, is waiting for Her Majesty to come at the Sun Dawn Manor, and I am very honored to take Her Majesty on a tour of my city.

Please ......"

"It's a great honor to ......"

Clear Sky led the Moonlight Knights to follow Count Ould and the nobles of the Western Realm into Sunlight City, and the barbarians who knelt outside the city stood up for a long time.

The people discussed how the World Tree, the Moonlight Queen, and the Moonlight Court would bring to the West. The bazaar has gradually become lively again, and some barbarian merchants even give out items for free to express their mood at the moment.

"Her Majesty is the most beautiful elf I have ever met, and she must have a good heart. Under His Majesty's rule, the Moonlight Court will soon become a kingdom of abundance. ”

"And the Great World Tree...... Yesterday I felt the World Tree's answer to my prayers, and that rain was the nectar of the World Tree. Have you noticed that there is much less wind and sand today and the air is more humid than before? ”

"Praise the Moonlight Tree King, praise the Moonlight Queen, and everything will be fine!"

……

Oak looked at the moonlight knights lining up into the city with shiny eyes, and said loudly to Mephesman: "Mentor, I want to become a moonlight knight when I grow up, defend the moonlight royal court, and protect Her Majesty!" ”

"It's a good ambition, but if you want to achieve it, you have to train harder."

Mauffsman replied to the oak with his eyes as he hurried away from the sandpaper and the kestrels.

She had just noticed that as the queen passed by, the panther she was riding on glanced at the two sisters with subtle eyes. The two sisters were also incredibly surprised when they saw the queen's appearance, and they must have a deeper relationship with the queen.

This kind of goodbye also seems to confirm Meffsman's suspicions, and she regrets that she has just belittled the two girls and missed the opportunity to meet Her Majesty the Moonlight Queen.

"Mentor, I'm going to train hard...... Hey? Where did Sister Kestrel and Sister Sandpaper go? ”

Mauffsman watched the two sisters disappear into the crowd with the Abis Leopard, and at the same time saw a figure that surprised her.

"They left in a hurry. If nothing else, you take your mother with you will slave horns, and I still have something to do. ”

Oak looked around, but did not see the kestrel sisters, so he had to reply disappointedly: "Yes, mentor, I went back with my mother." ”

"Stay safe ......"

Mauffsman told Oak a word and chased after the figure.

After passing through a shop's tent, Mephesman nearly collided with the man he was chasing. The person on the opposite side was dressed in an ordinary desert tribal sand robe, and his face was covered with a scarf, looking like an ordinary westerner.

Mephesman, who had just caught a glimpse of this person, immediately took a step back, and when he saw that no one around him was paying attention to him, he whispered, "Lord Governor! I thought you were welcoming Her Majesty the Moonlight Queen at this time. ”

Standing across from Mephesman was Luke.

"Clear Sky is our own people, greeting is just a ceremony, it is enough to have the eldest princess to receive us. Scorpion, are you very confused now, and you don't know what the future path is? ”

Mauffsman was surprised at how the Governor of Meteorfall knew about her troubles, and she replied truthfully, "Yes...... Although adults have shown us another path, there are those in Hamm who are willing to live a peaceful life, and there are also people like me who have long been accustomed to that kind of life and do not want to spend their lives in idleness.

I beg for your guidance. ”

Luke looked at Mephesman and could feel her unconcealed edge.

Not all sand pirates are willing to be recruited to switch to logistics honestly, and a large number of them have the same troubles as Mephesman. It's a group of adventurous people who may be pressured to compromise for a while, but over time they will still choose the path that will bring them excitement.

After all, the World Tree has been gone for thousands of years, and the once simple Westerners have changed through the change of the environment and become the modern Westerners who are still martial and strong.

This is incompatible with the natural "Madonna" attribute of the World Tree.

"Faith is a double-edged sword, and while it brings a sense of belonging to the barbarians of the West, it can also be exploited by something.

You want my guidance...... OK!

After entering this tent, what do I ask you to do, can you do it without hesitation? ”

Mephesman noticed the inconspicuous tent beside him. Instead of being filled with goods for sale outside like other stalls, it blocked the door with a black curtain embroidered with astrological charts.

is an astrology hut.

"My lord, may I ask why?"

"Don't ask why, ask you to do something, you do it immediately...... To hesitate is to die! ”

Hearing the death, Meuffsman couldn't help but hesitate.

But thinking that one day I didn't rub the side of death before, if I didn't seize this opportunity, I was very likely to do nothing in the future.

"My lord, I will listen to you after I go in, and I will not hesitate."

"Then come in with me!"

Lukla opened the curtain and walked into the astrology hut, followed by Mephesman.

The inside of the hut was extremely dark.

It stands to reason that the light outside is so strong, and the tent should not be so dark no matter how bad the light transmission is.

Mauffsman spread her perception and realized that she had entered a new space, and the sense of crisis alerted her.

In the middle of the space is a rectangular wooden table in the color of dates, and a crystal ball is placed on the table. The blue light emitted by the crystal ball became the only light in the space, but it only illuminated the area around the table.

A thick sheet of felt lay on the outward floor of the table, and Mauffsman saw the Governor of Meteorfall walk over the felt and sit down cross-legged.

The atmosphere was extremely eerie, and Mephesman wanted to ask, but couldn't help but say nothing.

At this time, a deep voice sounded from across the table: "What do the two guests want to divination?" ”

The crystal ball on the table lit up slightly, and a man curled up in a black robe appeared on the opposite side. He melted into the darkness, and the light could only shine a little.

Luke took out a gold coin and placed it on the table: "This friend of mine wants to decide her fate, and she has been very troubled about her future lately. Especially after the recovery of the World Tree, her industry will suffer a serious blow. ”

The astrologer said: "The stars are confused, and the world is changing in an uncertain direction. The astrologer is the one who interprets the hints given by the stars and finds the direction of the future for the lost traveler.

Ask the guest to choose a card that will reveal your future destiny. ”

The astrologer didn't move, and a set of cards appeared on the table in front of Mephesman.

The cards are all drawn with animals common to the West.

Mauffsman didn't know what Luke wanted to do, and seeing that Luke didn't give her any hints, she stretched out her finger and pointed at one of the cards and pushed it in front of the astrologer: "I choose the scorpion." ”

The astrologer held out a hand like dead wood to pick up the scorpion card and place it on the crystal ball. The card turns into a pile of crystal powder and spills from the top of the crystal ball, and the light in the crystal ball changes, and stars appear to form a picture of a poisonous scorpion.

A planetarial disk unfolds around a crystal ball, and the astrological disk rotates mechanically, and the runes on it are constantly changing.

"You're a sand thief."

Mevesman, who was identified by one mouthful, was surprised at first, but immediately argued: "As a sand thief, I am still a little famous. It's not surprising that you've seen me before and know me. ”

"You are now facing a fateful choice. Accept the mediocrity of life, and you will live a very comfortable life for the rest of your life, and you don't need to worry about money. And if you choose your own nature, you will die a very miserable death, but you will also be very great. ”

What the astrologer said made Mefsman serious: "I am not afraid of death, but I do not feel that I have anything to do with greatness.

Can you elaborate on how I died? ”

The astrologer's horoscope, interpreted: "You will be the pioneer who will lead the people of the West in their struggle against weakness, and your death will stir up the pent-up blood of the people of the West." ”

Mauffsman asked suspiciously: "I don't understand what you're talking about, you think too highly of me, I'm just a small character." ”

The astrologer said, "This is your fate, and I am only responsible for interpreting it." ”

"Can you be more specific?"

"I'm sorry, but astrology can't decipher a clear destiny, it can only be used as a revelation to let you know how to choose your direction.

Is it a life of mediocrity and comfort, or a life of great passion.

Would you like to try to see your fate, sir? ”

The astrologer turned to Luke, and a deck of cards appeared on the table in front of him.

Luke didn't move: "Your astrology level is a little low, and you can't even tell how my friend died." ”

The astrologer asked, "Do you see more than I do?" ”

"Of course......" Luke said, looking at the astrolabe, "If this friend chooses to follow her nature, she will die in the battle against the Moonlight Court." ”

Mephesman was shocked and said, "How could I possibly attack the Moonlight Royal Court!" The World Tree is there, and my respect for the World Tree is unwavering. ”

Luke said, "Just because you respect the World Tree now doesn't mean you will respect it in the future. Especially after you have met this astrologer too much, you will see the fraternity of the World Tree as cowardice, and you will turn your love for it to ruthlessness.

You will feel that the World Tree should not be revived, that the lost World Tree is perfect, and that things that do not exist in the world are flawless and without any shortcomings.

My Healing Game

So a group of people who thought the same way as you attacked the Moonlight Court......"

"No, absolutely impossible, you're ......" Mephesman excitedly stood up to defend himself.

"Sit down! Don't talk! ”

Hearing the order, Mauffsman sat down again and forced his mouth shut.

Luke turned to the astrologer and said, "The mysterious energy that destroyed the World Tree of the last generation has already penetrated the lands of the West over thousands of years.

The mystical energy emitted by the revival of the World Tree is only a part of it, and the remaining part wanders on the edge of the World Tree's cover, with the destruction of the World Tree as its only goal.

They can't get close to the core of the World Tree, so they influence people's minds and control them to destroy the World Tree. Even though you tried hard to cover it up, I could still smell the smell of the scorched lake coming from you.

Scorpion, kill him! ”

Mephesman's figure erupted like a bullet, and a dagger stabbed into the astrology's chest. Then the astrologer burned from the inside out......

The voice swirls through the space: "I have long been one with the World Tree, and destroying it is the only value of my existence. I was supposed to die with it, but it came back to life, and I became conscious.

From now on I will be its shadow that it cannot get rid of, its endless gravedigger! ”

The sound vanished, the space disintegrated, and light filtered in through the walls of the tent.

Mauffsman saw the astrologer's appearance clearly, a wooden vine in a black robe.

"Your Excellency, what the hell is going on?"
