Legacy
They inquired about the adults' entourage again, only to know that the person who returned the Nero Staff in public in Temple Square today was Amon, who could not help but take a breath. Amon is now a valuable guest of the city-state. As long as he tells Dick what happened to him in front of the mansion, a few of them will have to be swept out of the house. Frightened and trembling.
Thank goodness, the concerns of the goalkeepers did not happen. It seems that Amon did not mention what happened to Dick when he went to the door. But the second housekeeper who was in charge of the gatekeeper heard about this, and called the gatekeepers at that time to privately reprimand the meal-the great thing that came to the door, let them miss it
Amon lived in the city ’s main palace, and Rod Dick arranged a small courtyard for him. All items for eating and wearing were unprecedented luxury for Amon. For the first time in his life, he had such a luxury. enjoy. But he hasn't seen Rod Dick for several days in a row, and the Lord of the City has been busy on official business recently.
Rod Dick does not restrict Amon ’s freedom of movement. He can enter and leave the guest himself except for the house. It's just that every time I go out, the housekeeper will send a carriage and a guard to accompany him. This is both a kind of protection and a kind of surveillance. Now I can't let Amon go. There is no need for Amon to pay to buy things in the shop. He just wants to buy whatever he wants, and someone keeps accounts and pays.
When Amon bought a few interesting little things, and found this, he consciously didn't buy anything, anyway, he lived in the city's main palace and there was nothing missing. In this strange foreign land, he received two gifts one after another.
The first gift was given by a few gatekeepers when they went out. They made their own special snacks and fine wines from the shop. They apologized and asked Amon not to complain. Amon didn't want anything from these people, but he still accepted it with a smile, because he could perceive the hearts of these people. Receiving gifts would make them panic, but receiving them would make them relieved and grateful.
The second gift was from Tashun-Lington, the middle-aged Nero nephew. The nobleman personally visited the house and expressed gratitude on behalf of the Lington family and apologized for not receiving Amon in person these days. The things he sent were simple and practical: a hundred gold coins, two horses and a luxurious carriage, the aristocratic decoration was removed for civilian use, and there were several sets of clothes and two young and beautiful female slaves.
The clothes are very good. The outerwear, underwear, belts, pockets, and boots are all set. There is no noble and gorgeous clothing, but it is very comfortable and durable. It is suitable for people who travel far. See fine stitches and exquisite tailoring. You can't buy it in ordinary shops. In addition to the slave girl, Amun had accepted everything else, and was very grateful to thank him.
Amon is not clear about what happened in the temple that day, Obama has unjustified hostility towards him, and Hillary even wants to imprison him for questioning. This Tashun was a clear man, and he sent the gift to the mansion of the lord of the city for everyone to see. This also represents the respect and sincerity of the Lington family. Although it is only his personal behavior, it has preserved the face of the entire family.
Amon has n’t seen Rod Dick for a few days. He also asked his entourage what the city lord is doing and learned that Mengfeisi ’s eighth-level archer Julian is visiting.
He actually met "acquaintances" here again. Naturally this great magician Amon didn't know, but Julian was Bell's old friend. There was a list in the old maniac's message, telling Amon if he had any trouble traveling the mainland, he could go to those people for help, and these people had been favored by Nietzsche or Bell. The old maniac's token was once Bell's token, and Julian was on that list.
More than thirty years ago, Julian was a sixth-level magician who was responsible for managing the archives of the Temple of Isis. Bell often consults various classics and materials, so he is familiar with Julian and has received some help from Julian. The relationship between the two is very good. Promoting from a sixth-level magician to a Seventh Level great magician is the most difficult threshold for divine practice, and Julian has received many pointers from Bell, which is a very rare favor.
Later, after committing an accident, and leaving Onisi from the Temple of Isis, Julian was the first person to notice. He did not stop or warn him in the first time, probably because he had benefited from Bell, or knew that he could not stop Bell. At that time, there were three teams chasing Bell. The one from Mengfeisi should have been led by Julian, but Julie made an excuse and did not go, replaced by a high priest in the temple of Mengfeisi. , Go to the strait city-state and meet Nero to hunt down Bell.
It is necessary to introduce the situation of the Temple of Isis. Like the temples of the city-states, it also has three high priests in charge of various affairs, but the Master of Gods officer is a virgin, and he is detached in the entire Egyptian Empire. Because the Temple of Isis ruled the shrines of the city-states of Egypt, the high priest had a high status and could be on the same level as the city-lords of each city-state. But the position of the high priest is only three. Although Bell was a great magician at the time, he was initially an honorary high priest who did not have real power. He did n’t wait until he became a veteran of the Egyptian Academy of Divinity. Gained a high status.
The so-called radish and pit was due to the fact that the original high priest disappeared while chasing Bell, and a position was vacated. Later, Julian, who was promoted to the high magician, successfully became the new high priest of the Temple of Isis. . In a sense, Bell also helped Julian indirectly.
Julian is mentioned in the old maniac ’s message, but he also reminds Amon that after so many years, people do n’t know. If you really want to find someone to help, you must first figure out the situation.
Amon has nothing to do with Julian for the time being, but he is very interested in this great magician and wants to see for himself how he took Nero ’s relics from the space ring, so he waited patiently With. He is not in a hurry, but the nephews of the Lington family have been in a hurry these days.
Julian came to the Strait-City. Rod-Dick did not mention Nero's things in the first place, but a grand welcome and hospitality. Julian went to visit the temples to which the city-state belonged. In fact, it was just doing pretends. He was warmly received along the way and received generous gifts from the temples. Each place has its own characteristics, and there are many hospitalities that are not enjoyed in Mengfeisi City. This kind of inspection is also a rare beauty. The feeling of Lord Julian is very moist.
Master Dick was so enthusiastic that he followed him all the way and gave Julian the highest standard of courtesy. He did n’t go home for several days and put down other matters in the city-state temporarily. However, on the way to accompany Julian's outing, Rod Dick received a secret letter from his special envoy in Mondez City, explaining the background of Julian's visit and the message from the lady Message-Maria also made Rod-K try to keep Julian in the Strait-City
The reason is a bit complicated. The temple of Isis finally has a new saint after more than thirty years. Most people are happy, but there are also a few people who are dissatisfied. The first is to dream of the city of Ecuador. The owner of Phase One. If there is no virgin, everything in the city of Feith is decided by the lord himself, but after having the virgin, he has to ask the virgin for important affairs, and the personal rights of the lord are greatly weakened.
Another dissatisfied person is the three high priests in the Temple of Isis, for the same reason. If there is no virgin, all the real power of the Temple of Isis will continue to be controlled by the three of them, and at the same time, it can also rule the temples of the city-states to which Eju belongs, and Julian is also one of the three high-priests in power.
There is also a realistic contradiction in this situation. If the Temple of Isis has no virgins for a long time, the authority of the Egyptian affairs under the rule will gradually be weakened and shaken. Therefore, this situation cannot continue for a long time, and a new saint must be selected.
But the three high priests do not want their real power to be weakened, so they hope that the new saint is only a symbolic decoration, and everything else will continue to be under their control. Maria is young and inexperienced. In her first year as a saint, she concentrated on practicing divine art and was familiar with the various conditions of the Temple of Isis, so there was no conflict.
However, in her place and for her political affairs, Mary cannot always be a virgin saint who only asks anything, nor can she always be at the mercy of a puppet. She is also very talented, otherwise it is impossible to master the "power given by the gods" in the short time of Duque Town.
Most recently, Maria has gradually started to take charge of some temple things independently. It is imperative to change and rectify the 30 years of old habits. It happened that Rod Dick repeatedly sent people to apply, hoping to have a great magician to guard the cape city-state. Mary used this as an opportunity to send Julian, the most greedy power among the three high priests, to the cape city-state to inspect.
The tour of the city-state is a beautiful difference, and Julian came happily, but Rod-Dick mentioned in the secret report that in a few days the Holy Lady will have an order to be sent immediately, ordering Julian Stay with the cape city-state for one year and supervise the affairs of the border temple. The order also rebuked Rod Dick, criticizing the city owner's omissions in temple affairs in the past few years, and asking him to respectfully accept the guidance and supervision of Master Julian.
Although the Order of the Virgin Lady rebuked Rod Dick, but after hearing the news, the city host stolen in his heart. First dispatch Julian to the cape city state, and then the next order to let him stay, so that the high priest has no chance to face the opposition, the oracle's ordinance on the surface must be observed, although this hand is not very clear but But it works.
One year is enough for Maria to appoint a new candidate to get acquainted with what Julian originally controlled. Even after Julian returns, everything is back on track. Roddick also has a year to make Julian familiar with and adapt to the headland city state, and find various opportunities to ask him to stay officially.
Maybe after a year, Maria will be able to control the situation, and will issue a formal order to directly appoint Julian as the Master of Gods officer of the strait city state, and then select another priest to fill the vacant high priest position. Rod Dick, who received the secret letter, was no longer in a hurry, just accompanied Julian on a happy trip to the mountains and water.
They toured the city-state ’s territory and returned to the main cape town a few days later. Rod-Dick was about to tell the story of Nero ’s relics, but Julian himself asked: "Master Lord I heard a thing from the priests these past few days. Nero, the best reel maker in Egypt, was the Master of Gods officer here thirty years ago. Just a few days ago, a foreigner took Nero ’s Staff and relics are returned in public. Why didn't you mention this to me? "
Road-Dick clapped his hands and said, "I just want to say that the Master of Gods official staff that has been lost for more than thirty years, just returned to the city-state just one day before the arrival of Julian, just like welcoming you, this is Gods care for the symbol of Lord Julian. "
Julian did n’t hear Rod Dick ’s off-string sound, but the words were very useful, and he smiled happily: “I heard that not only the staff, but Nero also left relics, what is it? I am also curious. "
Road-Dick said with a happy face: "I was looking for an opportunity to ask you for help, but I ’ve been busy with my business these days, and I have n’t been embarrassed to speak. Ashamedly, there is no great magician in the Strait City State, we No one can open the space ring to take out wills and relics, and you have to bother you, Master. "
Julian haha smiled and waved his hand: "What troublesome, little things, I am happy to help. Where is the space ring? Get it now."
Rod Dick leaned in and whispered: "Adult, don't worry, there is one more thing, I will tell you privately ..." He whispered a few words around Julian.
Julian replied in surprise: "Oh, there is this matter? So quickly come with the staff, let's go to the temple's secret room."
In the temple's secret room, Julian read Nero's last words with a staff, and his face was dignified for a long time. He didn't speak, nor did Rod Dick. After a long time, Julian once again inspired the pupil of the earth, and re-listened the last words from beginning to end. Then the information in the pupil of the earth gradually weakened until it disappeared and was inaudible, which had been erased by the great magician.
Julian solemnly said to Rod-Dick: "Nero's last words involve a lot of secrets, and absolutely cannot be circulated. I wonder who has read this message?"
Rod-Dick replied in a lower position: "All of them are related and trustworthy. For Nero himself, for the city-state, for the Temple of Isis, for the honor and prestige of the entire Egyptian Empire, I have strictly ordered No one can pass it out, or you will be punished with the harshest punishment. Now that this information has been erased, even if anyone says it, it will never be recognized. "
Julian again asked: "What about the stranger who returned the staff? What does he know, he must be careful with this person."
Rod Dick explained: "He only saw Lord Nero ’s book in the cave, and he did n’t mention those unfavorable past events. Now this person lives in our house, and his entry and exit are under surveillance. "Thinking about it, he added a little restlessly:" This person's move to return the staff and relics has been regarded by the city-state people as a symbol of the gods' favor and gift, just before the arrival of the lord, this symbol With your glory, Master, we are not rude to this person, and we must express our gratitude. "
Julian smiled and shook his head: "Dick City Master is worried, I just want to meet this person and praise his noble and selfless behavior in person."
Rod Dick: "You can see him tomorrow. He will also be present when he takes out the relic and reads his will."
In the evening, Rod Dick returned home for the first time in a few days. And that night, Julian lived in the temple's room that belonged to the Master of Gods officer but was insomnia. Rod Dick did not know that the great magician had his own worries and cravings. The out-of-town boy named Amon should be the only person in the world who saw the last remains of Nero. I thought no one would have discovered the mysterious past more than thirty years ago, and Julian was not sure how much text Nero left. Did any mention of what happened between him and Bell that year? This is Zhu Lian was most worried.
On the other hand, Nero said in the message that Bell once told him that mortals can also become gods. This sounds unbelievable but has to be believed. What kind of temptation can a nine-level magician leave the temple and become the enemy of the entire empire? But the sage girl Onion even willing to follow him
Maybe Bell really knows something, and Nero disappeared when he hunted down Bell. It should be the last person who saw Bell, maybe he knew something. There is no relevant information mentioned in the staff's message. If there is such a content, it may be in his cave suicide note, and the foreigner will not say it even if he sees it-no one will say it
......
The next day, Amon came to the shrine of the cape city state again in the carriage of the master of the city. In the solemn hall of the rear hall, everyone was here. Lord Julian sat in the middle, with a ring on the round table in front of him. The high priests of the Cape Town State Temple, the directors, the nine nephews of the Rington family, and Amon all gathered around the table. Roddick sat next to Julian for notarization.
In front of an eighth-level great magician, Amon did n’t dare to use detection magic to spy on it, but stared intently at the space ring. As a result, he was slightly disappointed, and there was no great new discovery. Julian just picked up the ring and closed his eyes. With a slight shaking of the hand, he took out the contents, which is similar to Amun taking things from his bones. Remove everything from the ring at once.
Amon senses that this great magician uses advanced space magic, and his mana is very powerful. It seems that Nero's space ring is far less precious than Amun's bone, and that rib can be barely used even by the three-pole magician who has just mastered space magic.
Things were taken out of the space ring, and there was a clattering pile of half of the desktop. Everyone gave a depressing exclamation, and most people held their breath with their eyes wide open. Nero's relics have only two things, various scrolls and a pile of scattered stone. At a glance, it is estimated that there are more than 70 scrolls, nearly half of which are high-level magic scrolls, and there are hundreds of **** stones, including four dark blue water hearts and two flame elves.
What an amazing asset this special **** stone is already expensive enough, and the value of the scroll is far more than the **** stone. Julian, who is a great magician, is naturally clear in his heart, and he almost jumped up in surprise. Hilary-Lington's chest almost didn't faint after being caressed, his eyes fixed on the few blue water hearts and flame elves.
Rod Dick was the most calm. He coughed gently and reached for a paper roll that was interposed between the scroll and the **** stone from the table. After opening, he glanced and said: "This is Lord Nero's The will, which reads "read and notarized by Lord Dick", refers to my father. We did not expect to see it after so many years. Thank you Lord Nero for your trust. Let me read it today. . "
Nero ’s will is simple. Divide all the scrolls into five parts: two for the temple of the cape city-state, which is his contribution as a Master of Gods official; two for the family heir, Hope Spirit The Dun family can have an excellent magician to inherit his career; the last copy is given to the relics, which is a thank you for the selfless and noble conduct. The Divine Stone is divided into three parts, two for the Lington family and one for the person who returns the relics.
Nero ’s reward is really generous, but from another perspective, it should be. If the person who gets the relics does not return them, they can all stay behind. The will finally mentioned one more thing, hoping that the current prosecutor of the cape city-state would be accommodating, and let the person who returned the staff to check his private record of making the scroll, and specify which one and which one, presumably it was to explain The use of an unnamed gray reel.
This is Nero ’s attention. He once said in his message that the gray scroll is more precious than the staff and the ring combined, but only after the relic is returned can you know how the scroll is used, and you are worried about getting the relic. People do not return.
After reading the will, Rod Dick handed over the paper to everyone present, and let everyone pass it to read it, but Amon did n’t read it at all, because he had said beforehand that he did n’t know Egü. Cursive. Obama-Linton lamented in his heart that the distribution of the testament was too unfair. Amon, a stranger who was not familiar with each other, received more than every nephew of Nero.
But in front of everyone, he was not against it, so "spiritual action" pointed to those **** stones: "I do n’t know the value of the scroll, but the number of **** stones is clear. There are a total of one hundred here. There are three of them, if you divide it into three, there will be one more for every thirty-four. Amon, you can take thirty-five **** stones and leave the blue and red ones. "
Rod Dick frowned at him with a slight frown, and a contemptuous sneer appeared in the corner of his mouth. Tashun-Lington said: "My cousin, don't you think it's embarrassing to say this? The value of special **** stones and ordinary **** stones is completely different. Every adult here knows clearly. Since the uncle's will has made Lord Dick To do notarization, how to allocate should also let Master Dick arbitrate. "
Rod Dick is no nonsense, he will not go to count himself, let the clerk Fayol-Judah stand up, and count the total value of the God Stone on the spot. The value of various special **** stones is also different. The most expensive one is Ventussalte. Since space objects can be made and the number is quite scarce, their preciousness is staggering and worth 500 ordinary **** stones. The second is the pupil of the earth, which is worth three hundred ordinary **** stones. The fire elves and the blue water heart in Nero's relics are worth two hundred ordinary **** stones.
The relics have a total of 97 ordinary **** stones, four faint blue water hearts, and two flame elves, with a total value of 1,297 **** stones. If divided into three parts, each part is 432 ordinary **** stones, and there is one more. After the clerk liquidated, Rod Dick first asked Amon: "Generous and selfless foreigners, how do you want to get this payment?"
Amon was also dumbfounded. He did n’t expect Nero ’s relics to be so valuable. He mainly valued the scrolls, but they were not easy to reveal. He heard the city master ’s question and replied: “These colored **** stones are like this. It ’s valuable, I do n’t want to ask too much. It ’s enough to take a red one and add a blue one. It ’s also convenient to carry on your body. Even if it ’s a fraction, thank the servants in the master ’s house, please ask Master Dick to give it on behalf of you, thank you They have taken good care of me these days. "
Amon ’s work is both simple and beautiful. He only needs a faint blue water heart and a flame elf, and the reasons are right. It ’s convenient to take with him. No matter who it is, it will not be easy to rush off with more than 400 **** stones on his body. If it is replaced with gold coins, a person ca n’t take it at all, and he has to pull Amun with a carriage to generously leave the remaining thirty-two **** stones. Both were given to the servants in the city's main palace, which made Rod Dick very satisfied.
A Meng brought all the servants in the city's palace, and it was not easy for others to speak against it. Tashun-Lington also said voluntarily: "Our Lington family should also come up with a double fraction, a total of sixty-four **** stones, and let the master of the city reward the staff and servants around him as a thank you for the notarized will. The rest The 801 magic stones can be divided into nine parts, each of us takes eighty-nine. "
Nero ’s nephews dissatisfiedly glanced at Tashun, but no one publicly objected, so the stone was divided and the scrolls were distributed. Rod Dick said humbly to Julian: "Dear Lord, you are a great magician. I know the purpose and value of scrolls best. I am not as clear as I can tell, so I invite you to do arbitration. "
Julian looked at the scrolls and had a longing look in his eyes. He smiled bitterly and said: "The value of scrolls is not as clear as Shenshi, and sometimes it is not available for money, on different occasions and in the hands of different people The meaning is completely different. Since it is not easy to figure it out, I will use the simplest method. There are 36 advanced scrolls and 38 intermediate scrolls, divided into five according to the number. The captain represents the cape The shrine takes the first two, the Lington family takes another two, and the foreigner, Amun, the rest. As for the extra fractions, the master of the city decides what to do. "
P: It is only the last few hours until the end of this month. Thank you for your monthly ticket support Thank you for leaving your precious monthly ticket A
