Solomon and Arya did not immediately see the elder Yuzen, and Dimtay took them to a secluded manor in the city to arrange for rest. *With *dream* small* say wwwlā

"Miss Arya, I'm really sorry, Redfield's people are getting more and more excessive, I didn't expect it to be difficult for us, even my father's guests, I came a little late, and you were wronged. Dimertay said.

I have to say that his words are quite beautiful, whether it is because he himself has a good impression of Arya, or because he has been instructed by Elder Yu Cen, he did not take the opportunity to provoke Arya and another patriarch verbally about today's affairs, but counted it all on his head as if he had a big bag, which seemed more atmospheric, compared to the difficulties of the bridge, it was easier for Arya to have a good impression of Cen's side.

Sure enough, Arya couldn't help but be polite to him, expressing both indignation at what had just happened, and gratitude to Cen and Dimertai.

"Miss Arya, I don't need to thank you, my father is not convenient to see you today, please rest here for the night, tomorrow should be the right time. Dimertay laughed.

As if he remembered something, he turned his head to look at Solomon and said, "This is Mr. Agravin, I heard that you are a scholar and mage from a foreign land, and you have a unique view on lord construction, business and trade, my father was curious for a while, so he asked Miss Arya to bring you when she came to the imperial capital, and when my father met Miss Arya, he might also see you." ”

Solomon nodded yes and agreed.

According to the information provided to him by Arya before, there are at least four factions in the imperial capital, one is the old courtiers who support the royal family of Maider, including the military minister who may also help Arya, but after the death of the founding monarch Maider, his son died of illness shortly after succeeding to the throne, and now the successor is Maider's grandson, who is only a ten-year-old child, and now the power is controlled by the Senate.

But the Senate was not calm either, and the most fierce fights were Dimertai's father, Yu Cen, and another senator, Redfield. Yu Cen is a veteran and Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Redfield's qualifications are no less than his, he is a veteran general, and he has the most elite First Army in his hands.

But above them, there is another person who has always shown his attitude lightly. But in fact, the person who can influence the shape of the Meide Empire the most is Lula, the head of the senators.

Arguably the oldest courtier in the Med Empire, he had ties to all sides, having fought with Redfield and was said to have saved Redfield's life. Even if he hadn't become the supreme patriarch, perhaps Redfield might not have been able to master the First Legion as he is now, and at the same time, he had a close relationship with Yuzen, who had previously been Nords who had raised troops with Maider, and the two even had a common hobby of playing a kind of beast chess unique to the Empire, and even the little monarch of the empire was related to him, and Maider's concubine, that is, the grandmother of the little monarch, was his sister.

Almost everyone sees him as the anchor of the Empire, as he is the one who can best balance all sides.

Redfield and Yuzen are at odds with each other, almost superficial, but this one has never shown which side he is leaning into. Give food for thought.

After arranging Arya's group, Dimertai left the temporary residence and returned to his home.

He went straight to his study, where an old man with slightly gray hair but a sturdy figure was pacing back and forth.

"Father, Redfield's people are really looking for trouble, but fortunately I arrived in time and have already welcomed Arya and them in. Dimertay said.

"Well, Arya needs us now, but maybe we'll need them in the future. Yu Cen said in a deep voice: "We are compared to Redfield. The biggest shortcoming is the lack of a large army like an arm, although there are some private troops in hand, and some mercenaries can be found, but if one day it deteriorates to the point of life and death with Redfield. It is necessary to find another reliable foreign aid. ”

"If my father really thinks that Arya can help us in the future, and needs to use this to entrap the lords of Skyrim Province, he can actually let me marry Arya. Dimertay laughed.

"Oh, you have a crush on her, hehe, but she's a descendant of Queen Wolfheart, and we're Zenissar's followers. Yu Cen shook his head. "Your wife can only be a follower of Zenisar, and the Queen of Wolfheart is an unbeliever, unless Arya is willing to believe in Zenisar with you. ”

"But Zenisar didn't help us this time, otherwise Redfield would be so proud. Dimertay said.

Yu Cen's face changed drastically, he made a gesture of hissing, and shouted: "You are crazy, you can't show any dissatisfaction and unpiety when you read his name, how many times do you want me to say it?"

"Got it. Di Motai's face also changed, and he no longer referred to his name just now, and replaced it with another pronoun of "he" like Yu Cen.

The Zenisar in the mouths of the two is one of the nine holy spirits worshipped by the Empire, and is regarded as the god of artisans and commerce.

Legend has it that he taught the Terrans to make tools and weapons, and guided the Terrans to overthrow the ruler of the Elven Dynasty on the Beesda plane, so he became one of the eight holy spirits from the time of the First Empire Alicia Dynasty and was enshrined.

These nine holy spirits can be said to be the most orthodox and widespread belief in the current Beesda plane, although according to Solomon's research on mythology and historical classics, Edra and Didra, which are composed of the eight holy spirits led by Akatosh and the sixteen evil gods, are formed by the immature will of order, and belong to the primordial gods like the ancestral gods of the high elves of Keos, but they have also developed the way of faith like the sun god and the moon god.

Strictly speaking, Akatosh and they are closer to the laws of their own plane than the sun god Sindorem, because the will of order in the Kaos plane is existing and complete, and it is the will of chaos that will be condensed in the dark region, not the side of order, it is Sindorem and Diana, who first have the will of order, and then favor the high elves, and the former goddess of life Avy, who have raised them to the level of primordial gods, while Akatosh and others have directly differentiated from the incomplete will of order into primordial gods, and this differentiation will be divided into two different routes of Anu and Pachem before differentiation。

This shows that at the beginning of the creation of the world, when the will of the plane was born, there was a split, which of course led to a split in strength.

But if you dig deeper, you'll find something interesting. Suppose that Adra of the Anu line is slightly stronger than Didra of Pachem, because after all, the material realm of the Beesda plane is now controlled by the nine holy spirits, and they have become the most widespread faith, although there are as many as seventeen evil gods. It was almost twice as many as the Nine Holy Spirits, including Saiputin, but it never succeeded in making a comeback.

However, judging from the results of Solomon's research, the results of the battle between the gods of the Nine Holy Spirits and the evil gods other than Akatosh were not particularly dominant.

In the end, it can be concluded that the advantage that Edra's side has achieved is because of that Akatosh. Not only is he the strongest of the Nine Holy Spirits, but he is also the most powerful god in the Beesda plane.

Solomon has an uncertain speculation, assuming that the overall amount of Aidra and Didra when they divide into gods is roughly the same, then one side is seventeen, and the other side is nine, but most of the individual ones are about the same strength, then it can only be said that in the Aydra god system, Acatosh should have gained the vast majority of the power at the time of differentiation, so that he could bring the other Edra to make Didra's seventeen evil gods helpless; It's not exactly average, at least three of them are above the average of the seventeen evil gods, Twilight Queen Azura, Dagon, and a Boyesia, who has almost no record of fighting other gods head-on in mythology, but the only one time he has made Bethesda's elven ancestor, a prospective Trenimark who is expected to become the Ancestral Holy Spirit, become one of the evil gods, Maraceth.

The mythology certainly doesn't go into enough detail about this record, but if you consider that Cyptin, a descendant of Akatosh, was also accepted as a member of Adra, it should have been a gift from a very powerful god or a forced conversion by guò. Make one of his own descendants with enough potential to become one of the gods.

Boyesia is certainly not as powerful as Akatosh, but the fact that he was able to make Trenimac one of the evil gods like a vampire first descendant is somewhat indicative of his strength, as he is the only one who has done something similar to Akatosh.

That's a long way off. Returning to Yuzen, except for the Akatosh, the Holy Spirit is high up among them, but the other Holy Spirits are of course united in dealing with the common enemy, Didra, but they are not without internal strife.

Of course, this kind of conflict is related to faith, and the original gods did not need to be believed, but the elven ancestral gods of the Kaos plane also accepted the reverence of their descendants and led them to become beliefs. Because the way of faith can improve their strength, and there is also a very important benefit, that is, the original gods are theoretically extremely difficult to completely fall, like the sun god Sindorem, although it seems to be dead, but in fact it is only to return to the depths of the will of the plane, and after a certain period of time, it will come back, but the way of faith can help them return or recover early, because the continuous call of believers can be an opportunity to help them speed up their recovery.

In the same way, the Edla, of course, after discovering the benefits of faith, naturally led to the formation of faith in themselves, so that from the time of the First Empire there was the worship of the Eight Holy Spirits.

Under the guidance of the gods, the Kingdom of Maider, which raised troops at that time, received the help of a large number of craftsmen from all over the country in time to build equipment for the army and buy and sell food for Maide's army, and Yu Cen was one of the leaders of this gang.

Redfield, on the other hand, is a believer in Arkai, a god who is said to have the power of life and death.

Both gods are interested in increasing their faith, but out of some tacit understanding, or out of the need to deal with Dedra together, the two will not openly confront and hostile each other, and the battle between Yuzen and Redfield, who are their important pawns, has become the key to the game between the two.

Whoever has the upper hand between Yuzen and Redfield will definitely use the power in their hands to expand the influence of the gods they believe in.

And the tacit understanding between the two gods is to divide the superior and the inferior as the bottom limit based on the victory and defeat between the two agents. (To be continued.) )
