"Sword of Power!"

"What a sword of power!"

"It's been missing for hundreds of years, how could it be here?"

On the other side, the three people in the Western Continent couldn't sit still, and their voices trembled a little when they spoke, which was a sign of overexcitement.

This sword is a symbol of royal power!

In the past, the male lord of the Iris Empire used this sword to fight in the north and south, leading hundreds of thousands of iron horsemen to lay a great territory for the Iris Empire.

Although none of the three were royalists, they grew up listening to the story of the sword.

This sword has a very special place in their hearts.

"Could it be an imitation?"

"Even the royal power gem on the hilt of the sword is the same, how can it be an imitation?"

"Take it back to the royalists, only they know the details of this sword, they must know the truth or falsehood!"

Several people couldn't hold it back, and they couldn't wait to return to the Western Continent with this sword immediately.

If it was the sword, then the matter was delicate.

Su Xia is the one who has recovered the sword of royal power, and according to the previous rules of the Iris Empire, he will be awarded the title of "Grand Duke Edward", becoming a member of the nobility of the empire, and a top nobleman.

He will also be rewarded with a lot of money, land, estates, and so on.

In addition, he will also be the "Sword Bearer" for three years, with power second only to royal power in the empire.

In addition to this, there are a series of privileges and powers.

The question is......

There is no king anymore.

The royalists elected a few descendants with royal blood, but did not elect a real king.

In other words, if this sword is true, Su Xia's power "second only to the royal power" will become the top power within the royalist faction, and no one can have more power than him.

Of course, all this is based on the recognition of the other party.

If the other party doesn't admit it, Su Xia can't do anything about it.

He can't carry this sword and cut people, right?

"Dear Mr. North Wind, can we bring this sword back?" Herbert took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and asked sincerely.

"Yes, I let you take it back." Su Xia said casually.

"Thank you so much!"

It didn't take long for the three of them to take their leave with the sword of power, and then rushed back to the Western Continent without stopping.

After that, Su Xia began to follow the lord of Dragon City, dealing with the affairs of Dragon City, and was familiar with the arrangement process of various things.

Ten days later, news came back from the Western Continent.

That sword is real!

It is said that on that day, the entire Lion City entered a state of revelry, with countless people taking to the streets to celebrate the return of the sword.

Many people believe that this is the will of the gods, otherwise the sword would not have returned to the Lion City at such a critical moment.

"The great sword of kingship, it is a symbol of power and war!" Someone waved flags of golden irises in the streets, shouting loudly.

"It's God's will, God tells us we need a war!"

"We can't hold back anymore!"

"We should destroy the Automaton, take back our land, and reclaim the honor we once had!"

"That's right! We need land in the sun! ”

"Fight for honor!"

“……”

In the procession of the street march, it was clear that there were people arranged by several other factions.

These people only need to do one thing - call for war!

The mechanical race has been making a lot of moves recently, and most of them are going to be unable to sit still, either waging war against the undead or waging war against the seven remaining human gatherings.

They can't sit still.

In the past, they could not convince the royalists.

But now, the return of the sword has created an opportunity for them.

On this day, when everyone in Dragon City was having dinner together, news came from the Lion City.

"The royalists were moved." The Lord of Dragon City said.

"Looks like that sword does work." The old dean sighed, "Thanks to the north wind, if it weren't for him, this cooperation would definitely not be so smooth." ”

"Speaking of which, will the various rights they give to commanders be enforced?" Wang Luo suddenly asked.

"Yes, I heard that the person who finds the sword will become the 'sword bearer' for three years, and has the right second only to the king, so those people will not cheat, right?" Qiu Hao asked.

"They didn't say it in the message."

The Lord of Dragon City shook his head slightly: "After half a month, they will come over again to discuss some basic issues." ”

"Then let's talk about it in half a month." Susha said.

Everyone nodded.

They also know that it is unlikely that they will be able to implement those powers, but they can pay lip service to those guys when the time comes.

A few days later, news suddenly came from Xiongcheng in the north of the continent - they were also going to send someone to talk about cooperation.

They had a coincidental time, and it was the day the people from the Lion City came.

It looks like on that day, they might have to hold a three-way meeting.

"I can't seem to sit still." The old dean smiled.

"It's not that we can't sit still, the elephant city in the south is quite stable, and it hasn't sent us a message." Wang Luo said.

"Those people in Xiangcheng...... Always wavering, leave them alone for the time being. ”

Passing through the southwest mountainous area, continuing to the southwest, and climbing over a high mountain range, it is the territory of Xiangcheng.

Speaking of which, the two sides are actually very close to each other.

It's just that the contact between the two sides has always been very shallow, and there is basically no contact with each other.

The old dean said that those people in Xiangcheng love to take advantage of small advantages, and they will not do anything cheap.

To deal with this kind of guy who loves to take advantage, you must be patient and not show your willingness in advance, otherwise the other party will open his mouth and step on your bottom line.

Time passed day by day, and the day of the tripartite talks finally arrived.

The people of Bear City came early.

Before dawn, a team of nearly 100 people arrived at the ninth city of Dragon City.

The leader of the group, Mikhail, was a man in his thirties, with a sturdy physique, as tall as a bear, and he fit the stereotype very well.

He was the deputy city lord of Bear City, and he was accompanied by more than a dozen ministers and deputy ministers of various departments in Bear City.

In addition to this, Suxia saw an acquaintance.

The son of the lord of Bear City, the shy and thin little Peter, was also in the visiting team.

At the beginning, when Su Xia returned to the southwest of the continent from the extremely cold land, he rescued a reconnaissance team from Bear City from the mouths of the bugs, including Little Peter.

Of course, little Peter didn't know who he was now.

"Mr. North Wind?" Mikhail walked up to Susha, stretched out his hand to him, and said with a smile: "I have admired the great name for a long time, and I have wanted to meet you for a long time. ”

"Hello."

Su Xia also smiled and stretched out her hand to shake him.

At the same time, the members of the Bear City team were all greeting everyone on the Dragon City side.

This team is very good, more than 80% of the team can speak two languages or more, and it is completely barrier-free to communicate with Dragon City.

"Mr. North Wind, I've met your friend Masked Geek, and he's a very nice guy." Little Peter walked over, his face a little green, and he didn't seem to be able to cope with this kind of diplomatic scene.

"Yes, the masked monster saved the child, he is our benefactor in Bear City!"

Mikhail smiled and said: "Mr. North Wind, if you see him, be sure to tell him that Bear City has prepared a gift for him, and he will always be a friend of Bear City!" ”

"I will." Su Xia said seriously.

When the time came to noon, so did the people from the Lion City team.

Perhaps knowing the importance of this negotiation, they came this time with more than three people, more than 100 people.

Among them, the royalists were the most numerous, with more than half of them.

Their leader, Louis Bourbon, has royal blood and is now the most supporter of the royalists, and if nothing else, he will probably become the next Iris Emperor.

"Ah, my dear friend, we meet again." With a smile on his face, Louis walked towards the Lord of Dragon City, and a wave of translation came to his face.

He leads a team that is equally impressive, with almost every member bilingual.

The old dean and the others noticed that the Lion City team was carrying a big black box, which looked very strange.

If it's a gift, there's no need to carry it in a black box.

Soon, through communication, they knew what was inside the black box.

It turned out to be a complete set of tools needed for the Duke's Investiture Ceremony!

"Huh? Do you want to recognize the dukedom of the North Wind? The old dean was a little surprised, it was not the first time he had dealt with these people in the Lion City, knowing the temperament of these people, he had always felt that they would most likely repay their debts, otherwise Su Xia's identity for historical reasons or other reasons.

"Of course you have to admit it!"

Louis said solemnly: "Mr. North Wind is our new 'Grand Duke Edward', and he is also the future 'sword bearer' of the empire, with the power of the second king, this news has spread within the Lion City, we value the spirit of contract, not untrustworthy people." ”

"Really?"

Suddenly there was a disdainful laugh from the Bear City team, and it was none other than Mikhail.

He clasped his hands, his face was not good, he stared at the people of the Lion City team, and his speech was quite direct, without any minus at all.

"In that grain deal, all the grain you gave us in the Lion City was moldy and rotten, this is what you call the 'spirit of contract'?"

"Dear Mr. Mikhail, I was not in charge of the incident at the beginning, and by the time I learned the news, the transaction had already taken place, and I am sorry for your loss."

Louis looked apologetic, his voice sincere, and lowered his posture.

The way he looks makes Mikhail have a bad seizure.

Mikhail snorted coldly, turned his head, and stopped talking, after all, there are still three-way talks today, and there is no need to make the relationship too stiff before the talks.

Afterwards, everyone had lunch together in the canteen of the central building in Dragon City.

After the meal, before the talks, under the watchful eyes of countless people, Louis fulfilled his promise and held a simple dukely ceremony for Suxia.

"Dear Mr. North Wind, from now on, you are the Duke of the Iris Empire......"

With a smile on his face, he put on the duke's robe for Susha and dressed him with the medal of dukedom.

In fact, during the normal investiture ceremony, Susha was supposed to swear allegiance to the Iris Empire, and there were a whole bunch of other processes that Louie canceled.

After all, Su Xia has a special identity.

After the ceremony, Wang Luo smiled and asked, "Haha, commander, how does it feel to be a nobleman?" ”

"General."

Su Xia shrugged his shoulders, the capital of the country was dead, and he, the grand duke, did not have much power.

He can receive a knighthood salary every month, but what he has now is money, and he can't afford that salary at all.

As for the dukedom, it has long been occupied by the mechs.

As soon as the ceremony was over, Su Xia took off a fluffy duke's robe, it was really sinful to wear this thing in this weather, it was too hot.

Subsequently, the tripartite talks officially began.

Su Xia, as the deputy city lord of Dragon City, the Grand Duke of Lion City, and a friend of the benefactor of Bear City, naturally had to attend this meeting.

At the meeting, the three parties began to exchange opinions and information, mainly about the mechanical family.

Of course, discussions about the wreckage of the alien spaceship at Camp Oasis are inevitable.

This news has long been revealed to the Lion City and Eagle City by traitors such as Hu Li and Qin Shou.

Maybe it's because of the increasing pressure from the mechanical clan, or maybe there is Su Xia as an intermediary, this meeting did not quarrel, the three parties gave enough sincerity, and the whole meeting went very smoothly.

At six o'clock in the evening, the meeting was temporarily suspended, and everyone enjoyed the dinner together, and exchanged words and laughter at the dinner, and the atmosphere was particularly harmonious.

During the dinner, Su Xia was almost always the person who attracted the most attention, and people kept coming up to talk to him.

He was smiling and coping.

Towards the end of the dinner, Su Xia suddenly received a message.

Even he was stunned for two seconds when he saw this news - the first full-level player on the whole server appeared!

Not surprisingly, it is Lin Shan.

And the moment Lin Shan reached level 60, he triggered a server-wide mission.

【Battle of Destiny】

This quest appears directly in the player's taskbar, sparkling and glittering with gold.

Since the launch of the game, the game company has been operating the game in a very salty attitude, and before that, it has never launched any full-server activities.

You know, other online game manufacturers, no matter how they say it, will get some full-server activities for players to kryptonite, and a certain goose is one of the representatives.

Looking up at the starry sky is different, this is a real first time!

At this moment, the game forum is about to be crowded with players who are talking about it wildly.

"Those gossip is true, the first player to reach level 60 will really trigger a server-wide mission!"

"Lin Shan, it's really him!"

"I heard that he only slept six hours a day during this time, and spent the rest of his time farming monsters......"

Not only the forum, but also on major online platforms, the discussion of this task is rising at a crazy speed, and other hot spots have been suppressed in just a few minutes.

For no other reason, the content of this mission is too exciting.

【Battle of Destiny】

[Brave adventurer, the experience in this world may make you realize that your fate is not controlled by yourself, but by more powerful mechanical creatures]

[No matter how powerful the adventurer is, he must bow his head in front of the mechanical creatures]

Can you accept such a fate? 】
