060: Imperial Council
Aristotle frowned and looked at Elrens: "It turns out that you are a dragon, no wonder you were injured by the six-law doomsday curse of the glorious banner master Diogenes, and you can survive until now without dying." ”
Elrence was amazed at the accuracy of the Archmage's judgment, and at the same time had a little hope in his heart that maybe this old man would heal my wounds!
"Master, you see my injuries, and I wonder if there is a way to heal them?" the dragon asked nervously in a tone as respectful as possible.
Aristotle shook his head: "The Six Spells of Doom is a powerful forbidden spell that has been lost for a long time, and it has disappeared since the war of the beasts two hundred years ago, but I didn't expect it to be in the hands of Master Diogenes. As far as I know, this forbidden spell is composed of six high-level magic chains, and it takes several days to prepare for it in advance, and it takes half a year to rest afterwards. But the combined damage of these six spells can be multiplied, and when it comes to healing, they repel each other, and there is no way to start at all. ”
Upon hearing this answer, Elrens sighed in disappointment. Since even the Star Traveler said so, it was definitely not possible to heal his injuries in a short period of time. I have no choice but to stay with Cleo for the time being!
At this time, the old magister continued: "Fortunately, your dragon clan is very strong, so you didn't die immediately, but if you want to heal, I'm afraid I can't do anything." However, while I can't, there is someone who can help you...... Come on, young man, as long as you work hard, you should soon achieve your goal. ”
After saying this, he turned his head to look at Cleo with a shrunken expression: "You still have a good vision, and the people you choose are good, no wonder you are willing to use the light of only Nana." As for how to explain it to your mother, I can't help you, I hope you can think of an explanation for yourself. If you want to further enhance the effect of the secret method for him, it is best to discuss it with your mother first, after all, she may also have her own ideas. Now Pera's situation is not good, and it would be bad if you had a conflict. ”
Cleo blushed and nodded: "Mentor, I understand, next time I will be careful and will not disappoint you." ”
Elrens was suspicious in his heart, what is the effect of further strengthening the secret method? Could it be that there is any other mystery in this only the light of Na, this little girl Cleo is sneaky, there must be something to hide from herself!
Aristotle smiled and beckoned to Buciphalas, who was standing outside the pavilion, and the one-horned pegasus obediently walked up to him.
The old magister reached out and gently stroked its smooth and shiny neck, and then said to Cleo, "Bucifaras was originally your royal brother's mount, and although the Queen Mother has entrusted it to my care since Bixia fell unconscious, I am already old. Its role should be on the battlefield, and now I will return it to you, hoping that you will get along well and help each other fulfill the legacy of your father and brother......"
Soon after, Elrens and Cleo left the Arcane Tower of Logic. The two of them walked through the night again, but the eldest princess was full of worries at this time, and her expression was very lonely.
Elrens asked curiously, "Little girl, do you have something on your mind? Is it because Aristotle told you something, but I haven't found anything to worry about?"
"Well, you don't understand...... Princess Celestia sighed listlessly, and was silent for a while before she slowly spoke, "Actually, I'm worried about the situation of the mentor. ”
"But I think he's in good shape, and anyone can feel the magic in him. To tell you the truth, I was no match for him, even in my prime!"
Perhaps, only my father could barely match the Archmage, Ellens thought to himself.
"But his tone to-day was really strange, and he entrusted Bucepharaz to me for no reason, and said that he was old. You must know that the mentor is 472 years old this year, and he has never heard him say that he is old!"
The more Cleo spoke, the more worried she became, and her two beautiful slender eyebrows wrinkled together: "I suspect that he predicted his future from the stars, and if Pera will fall, it is likely that the mentor and his old man will also die with this city!"
At this, the eldest princess fell silent again, her heart full of sadness. If Pera really falls, where will she go? will she live and die with the city like her mentor, or will she leave for a while, waiting for the opportunity for revenge in the future?
Seeing the sullen appearance of the eldest princess, Elrence couldn't bear it and comforted her: "Don't worry, things like astrology are not reliable at all, Master Aristotle and Pera will be fine! Besides, isn't there me by your side as a guardian knight, I will protect your safety, it's a big deal that you follow me to hide in the ice and snow continent, it is impossible for the HRE and the Nicians to chase over there." ”
The evil dragon added in his heart: The premise is that you have to help me recover my magic!
Listening to Elrens's words, Cleo only felt a warmth flow through her body. A smile finally bloomed on her tense face, as beautiful and mysterious as a flower in the moonlight.
"Don't people go to the Ice and Snow Continent with you...... I'm afraid of the cold!"
Early the next morning, Cleo took Elrens into the palace to attend the Imperial Council, and Doss received an invitation as the representative of the Kingdom of Corinth. The three of them rode in a wide and ornate carriage and walked along the Avenue of the God of War to the palace at the top of the hill.
The carriage passed the glorious Temple of the Twelve Lords, and a procession of priestesses in snow-white robes passed by the carriage. Gentle hymns drift into the ears, and they carry white porcelain water bottles, sprinkle holy water on passers-by with willow branches, and send blessings from the gods.
"I miss home. Seeing such a scene, Duo Shi said in a low mood, "I wonder how Sister Lys is now?"
Lyes is the High Priestess of the Corinth Love Temple, and when Elrence attacked Corinth, she assisted Diogenes in attacking the dragon, causing him to fail and even be seriously injured to this day!
"Don't worry, who would dare to offend that wicked woman, she must be living a very nourishing life, maybe she is teaming up with the old man Diogenes to sneak up on her!"
The evil dragon hated itchy, and cursed in his heart: It's better not to let me touch that woman again, otherwise it will definitely make her want to die...... No, it's better to live than to die!
The Grand Palace of Pera is built on the top of a hill, and the terrain is condescending and steep. Due to the approaching war, the wide avenue that normally leads to and from the main entrance of the palace has long been sealed by countless boulders. Cleo's carriage entered through the narrow rocky passage of the side entrance, passed through three levels of fortress, and finally entered the palace. Consisting of three magnificent complexes, the Palazzo Europa, in the traditional Olympian style, stands majestically against the backdrop of numerous marble columns, and was the main place for emperors and ministers to deal with military affairs.
The three of them were led by the guards into the palace and entered a small courtyard through the corridor. There were a lot of exotic flowers and plants planted here, but the three of them didn't want to appreciate it, because they had not yet entered the Imperial Palace, but they had already heard the noisy quarrel coming from inside!
The League of Olympia consisted of more than 100 independent city-states, among which the Macedonian League led by Pera, the Delian League led by Athens, and the Peloponnesian League led by Sparta, were the three most powerful shili within Olympia. The Delian League had a higher economic power, the Peloponnesian League had strong warriors, and the Macedonian League had both.
These numerous city-states were united by similar cultural and religious backgrounds to fight against foreign invasions (or invasions), with the emperor crowned by the high priest leading the army in wartime and the imperial council discussing state affairs in peacetime. This loose political-military structure was inefficient, but for nearly a hundred years, Pera has monopolized the throne of the Union. The other two shili and the small city-states did not dare to disobey the huge liliang of Pera, so they were able to follow the emperor under the command of the emperor and join forces to fight in all directions.
However, the royal family of Pera, the only male heir to the great Ajid family, Alexander III, has been in a coma since the Battle of Illyria last year, and has not been able to wake up by all means. The Olympian League was in tatters due to the loss of a strong leader, the regent Perdiccas was far from previtable, Pera was riddled with internal conflicts, and the small city-states were divided and the chaos was out of control.
The Council has a total of 1,000 senators, composed of representatives of the countries of the Alliance, major generals of the army, hereditary nobles, priests of the twelve main gods, and members of the royal family of Pera. Due to the complexity of the members, each meeting has always been disputed for their own interests, and only because of the prestige of the emperor can order be maintained. Now that Alexander III is in a coma, the various shili are fiercely fighting over whether to appoint another emperor (but in fact there is no suitable candidate) and various other things, and they are almost divided......
