"What? You mean, there is a cage on the central bearing of the Mechanical Castle, which has imprisoned the elite of the Clover family who have tried to recapture the Mechanical Castle for so many years?

Faced with everyone's questions, Hopkin thought for a while and said, "I don't know how many people are being imprisoned, but it is said that the people who are locked up inside are all very powerful clansmen. ”

"Well, speaking of which, the Clover family is really persevering, but it's a pity that it seems that even generations of geniuses have not been able to recapture the mechanical castle in the end, but have been locked up by Walpole. ”

Hearing Augustine's sigh, Hopkin shook his fist and said angrily, "Why do you say that? They have made great efforts, at least they have fought and struggled, but in the end they have not been able to defeat the mechanical army, but their courage is still worthy of admiration. ”

Augustine looked dismissive at the little girl's disgruntled cry, waved his hand, and said, "But they didn't succeed, didn't they?

Without waiting for Hopkin to argue, Augustine continued, "I know that as a descendant of the Shamrock family, you have your pride, but there are some things that cannot be succeeded by pride alone. ”

Hopkin's argumentative words came to his lips, and after Ogufordin's words, she immediately became speechless, because she knew very well that Agufordin was right, those Shamrock families on the grassy plains did seem a little self-conscious, and it seemed really stupid to want to retake the mechanical castle with just one blood.

There was a brief silence in the room, and after a while Lecius spoke: "For some people, pride is the whole of life. Didn't you think so at one time, Augustine?"

Lucius spoke, and the atmosphere in the room became a little different, originally Ogufodin had the upper hand, but now Lucius directly pointed out the shortcomings in his words, which made Ogufodin a little embarrassed.

As Lecius said, Augustine also had his pride, otherwise how could he have been hiding in the Temple of the Stars for so long, and not trying to enslave the creatures of the city in the woods, collecting all kinds of materials for him to use to make all kinds of machines?

Turning an entire city in the woods into another mechanical castle may seem like a joke to others. But for Augustine, who had mastered the drawings of the stars, it was a simple gesture.

From this, it can be seen that the guys who cling to pride are indeed stupid, even if they have advanced to the level of gods, they will be stupid because of the so-called pride.

Under the questioning of Lucius, Augustine was defeated, and could only raise his hands and say, "Oh, well, well." I'm actually a proud idiot, too. ”

Is pride the same as stupidity?

Lucius's answer was: "Of course not, pride is an inherent quality of any living being, and if there is no pride, then I am afraid that life will lose its meaning of existence." ”

"So what?" the crowd looked at Lucius with some confusion. Expect him to come up with some alternative conclusions.

And Lucius smiled and reached out to pat the Hopkins mechanical fist and said, "So, we have to attack that mechanical castle, not only to regain control of that castle, but also to rescue those people who are imprisoned in the castle." Let that Walpole and Vabelen understand who is the real master. ”

Hearing this, Augustine spread his hands and said, "All right." Okay, you're pretty confident, but I'll warn you that Walpole is a great guy. ”

Augustine's reminder naturally attracted the attention of Lucius, who stared at Augustine and asked very seriously: "Tell me, how powerful that Walpole is, right?"

Seeing Lucius ask, Augustine bowed his head and fell silent, as if he had fallen into some kind of heavy memory.

After pondering for a long time, he raised his head and looked at Lucius and said, "Do you know that there used to be twelve temples in the Sanctuary?"

"The Twelve Temples?" Augustine's words made everyone present full of surprise.

Du Liniang thought for a while and said, "I only know that there are six major temples in the Western Continent, and there is also a Holy See, is there another twelve temples in the Holy Domain?"

Augustine scanned the crowd and saw that no one seemed to know about the so-called Temple of the Twelve.

A little stunned, he said: "Yes, few people mention the Twelve Temples now, and even fewer people know the glory of the Twelve Temples of the Holy Realm at the beginning. ”

"Life, the stars, the artisans, the machines, the equilibrium, and what you know as 'nature, savagery, war, magic, darkness, and souls,' plus what was once the Temple of Light, which you now call the Holy See, is the Twelve Temples that formed the entire Sanctuary in the first place. ”

When Lucius heard this, he suddenly remembered the stairs he had walked, and remembered the twelve wooden stairs when the Sanctuary was first established.

Vaguely seemed to remember something, and muttered: "The Twelve Temples, are the twelve steps?"

Augustine naturally understood what the steps Lucius was talking about, and nodded immediately and said, "Yes, the twelve wooden steps represent the earliest twelve temples. ”

It was when the entire Sanctuary was just beginning to be built, it was a time for pioneers to seek hope, and it was the most unpretentious time in the Sanctuary.

It can be said that it was through that era, with the assistance of the Twelve Temples, that the original founder was able to finally build the Sanctuary, and make the Sanctuary the top of the entire Western Continent and even the entire plane.

However, decay always laid the groundwork in the heyday, when the seven temples of light, nature, barbarism, war, magic, darkness, and soul became stronger and stronger, and after the emergence of many advanced gods, the pattern of the sacred realm began to change, and the sacred realm also entered the age of gods at that time.

"Actually, it wasn't that Hope was weak enough to suppress the seizure of power by the Seven Great Temples, but that he left the Sanctuary with the other five temples and embarked on an adventure to find out of the plane. ”

Hearing what Augustine said, Ruciuston thought of something, looked at Augustine and said, "You mean, Walpole belonged to the original five temples?"

Augustine nodded and said, "No, it doesn't belong, but he is the one who was in charge of the Temple of Mechanics in the first place, and I am the one who is in charge of the Temple of the Stars, and as for Vanbrunn, he was in charge of the Temple of Life." ”

After Augustine explained this, everyone suddenly understood why Augustine kept saying that Walpole was strong.

A person who was the leader of the Mechanical Temple, plus the leader of the Temple of Life, was indeed very powerful.

At this moment, it was Lucius, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart.

Others may not know how powerful the five temples that follow the Founders are?

But as a student of the founder, Lucius, who has obtained the founder's inheritance, is very aware of the strength of that temple.

The Temple of the Stars he had seen alone was ruled by a mechanical deity like Augustine.

So Walpole, who was in charge of the Temple of Machinery, and Vabelen, who was in charge of the Temple of Life, probably also had some special means?

In response to Lucius's speculation, Augustine quickly replied: "Yes, we were arranged by Hope to be in charge of the temple, so to speak, each has its own special abilities, and our body is Hope according to the laws of the civilization represented by each temple, giving us a special fusion. ”

"If this is the case with the laws of civilization that your mechs merge with the temples, then why do you want to abandon your previous mech?"

Lucius's doubts, Augustine naturally immediately gave an answer: "Because, that body is damaged, it is not enough to support the power of the Star Temple, if I don't replace the body, my body will be completely shattered if I leave the temple." ”

The others didn't hear what Augustine meant, but Lucius understood what Augustine meant, and couldn't help but be a little surprised and said, "You mean, the Temple of the Stars is actually inside you, or is that the Temple of the Stars actually your mechanical core?"

For Lucius's keen insight, Augustine did not continue to conceal it, but nodded and admitted: "Yes, in fact, the Temple of the Stars is my core. ”

Confirming his guess, Lucius suddenly said: "I see, no wonder you were able to advance to the rank of mechanical god, because you regarded the Star Temple as your core, making the law of star civilization your structure and power source, so that you can have the power of the gods." ”

Then Lucius couldn't help but exclaim: "Wow, if you say so, it won't be the Walpole core, it's actually the mechanical castle, right?"

Augustine looked at Lucius with a strange expression, and finally nodded under Lucius's gaze, but asked with some puzzlement, "Why are you able to guess so many things?"

"That's because the teacher gave me a lot of knowledge, and if I contact what you said, I can guess it with a little speculation, but you really shocked me, I didn't expect that the Star Temple is actually your core. Lucius shook his head and sighed.

Seeing Lucius's emotional look, Augustine continued: "So, it is completely impossible to defeat Walpole in the mechanical castle. ”

Hearing this, everyone present had roughly understood, and Hopkin also understood why his ancestors, who had spent so long and tried almost all the strength of each generation of the family, still failed to recapture the mechanical castle in the end.

Augustine was silent for a moment before he continued: "It is not so much that the mechanical castle is the core of Walpole, but that Walpole is the core of the mechanical castle. ”

"So it's hard to defeat him in the mechanical castle, but as long as you get him out of the castle, then it's easy to defeat him, and with Lucius, your skills, you can completely transform him and make him truly a mechanical castle for your use. ”

Hearing this, Lucius looked at Ogufodin with bad intentions, and saw that Ogufodin was a little hairy, and then smiled and said, "Hehe, it's as if I just used parts No. 3 and No. 4 to clean you up?" (To be continued......
