Power and Empire Chapter 3602: Holy city rumors
"Kara..."
"Kara...Kara..." I can't tell what the sound is. Hearing the sound in my ears seems to penetrate the body and rush into the soul, making people tremble here. The desolate wild wind whimpered from the white walls of the holy city, and the white snow fluttered with the wind, breaking the sky into pieces. Layers upon layers covered the earth. Looking from a distance, if the silver dress is covered, the whole land is desolate, this It's not late at night, it's just dusk, but the bleakness of the sky is the same as the dark night, giving people a heavy feeling, as if they were overwhelmed and out of breath. The huge outline of the silver holy city is as majestic as a giant beast on the ground. At the highest temple in the holy city, the towering altar is formed into a seven-pointed shape, and the whole body is pitch black, straight into the cloud peak. , In the whimpering wind blowing from the temple, there is such a karaoke sound, scattered into the distance, with a primitive roughness, with a special charm.
"What the **** is this world..." The hoarse murmur floated out from the towering altar of the temple, seeming to merge with the wind, vaguely indistinguishable.
"It's snow!"
"How can the holy city see snow, the lowest temperature here is above 20 degrees"
"What the **** is the Prophet doing!"
"Today is the day when all monarchs gather in the holy city. What is the prophet doing?"
Immediately after the voices of various private discussions, snowflakes roared from all directions and gathered together, making the sky tremble! Everyone was stunned. There was no more snow falling in the sky. All the snowflakes condensed to form a huge unrecognized symbol. The high platform of the temple hissed up to the sky, and the voice was stern, so that everyone who heard it was immediately attentive. Zhen, as if to be torn apart by this sound. Although everyone couldn't see it, but unexpectedly felt that a soaring breath struggling directly towards the sky and rushing towards the sky, like a savage meteor straight into the sky, as if to blast a hole in the sky and open up a hope. Rumbling, roaring and whirling, it seems that some force hits an invisible diaphragm somewhere.
恩恩, the sky and the earth shake, and the humming sound spreads to all directions
"Puff..." A mouthful of blood stained the high platform ground. At the center of the top of the temple, a middle-aged man in a purple robe shook his body. He muttered and opened his eyes, filled with In response to the enthusiasm, there is a football-sized ball in front of him, exuding white light, and his right hand is holding something that looks like parchment, and small yellow spots are scattered on the parchment. on. His hollow eyes looked at the sky silently, for a long time, for a long time, and sighed.
"Is this your answer to me..." The middle-aged man looked angry and threw the parchment in his hands on the ground. His figure was markedly bleak on the towering temple platform, blending with this voice, and There was a sad loneliness and decline.
"I am a prophet, the world I see, you can't see..."
"You... can't see..."
"I will not give up, I will definitely find my way up! If there is hope, where is the hope? If there is no hope, why let me build this holy city!!"
The voice was mad, almost hysterical, roaring in nine days. Below the temple, there are dense figures lying on the ground at this moment. They are male and female, wearing white holy city robes. They surround the altar, densely densely packed, but there is enthusiasm emerging, like on the altar. With one word, they can give everything for it.
The wind is bigger. "Since you let me see it, there must be hope, but where is the hope..." The hoarse voice on the altar was bitter, containing sorrow, and it lasted for a long time. The voice suddenly became louder, and I don't know what method was used, but I saw the wind and clouds in the sky changed, and white snowflakes began to fall.
Sunlight is drawn in from the large glass window, dragging a long light and shadow in the huge reading room of the Temple Library of Getayam. The quaint long cross table is covered with pits and pits that have been eroded by the years. , Each long table has thirty chairs side by side, and there are thirty such long tables. In the middle of the hall, the white coat of arms of the Temple of the Order of the Kingdom is still eye-catching, just because the smoke and war have gone away. It looks more like a huge curtain
White Luoan Library
This huge building with a blue dome on the south side of Gettyam is 300 meters long and wide. It is the news from the Southern Intelligence Department of the once-temple empire that the special envoy of the Red Dragon Temple is about to arrive at Gettyam.
The main hall library of the Knights, the preserved temple documents even exceed those of the holy capital that has experienced several wars. It’s just that under the current popularity of the imperial business culture, the library used to gather the temple’s rituals. It’s a huge reading room that can accommodate 900 people. At the moment there are only a few dozen people.
These are business school students who are interested in the history of the mission country. Most of these young people in the Empire’s blue business school robes are the children of the major chambers of commerce. They have documents about the mission country. It is more of a curious mentality. Few people will really study these documents carefully. Sometimes some people will make a few low shouts or whisper to each other. These people have men and women, and they often don’t take long. , They will start to chat with each other about some interesting things that happened recently, as if they are treated as a free communication place, the administrator is not surprised at this situation, if it was before, no one would dare to make a loud noise here, but Now, as long as these empires don’t take the documents away
Of course, there will be one or two unexpected guests occasionally. For example, the dark-haired young man sitting next to the long French window to the east at the moment is flipping through the map of the Great Plains of the Holy Capital. Even now, The Great Plains of the Holy Capital is also classified as classified. It is controlled by the imperial military. The black-haired youth can get it. Naturally, there is a letter from the imperial military. The black-haired youth sat there alone, quietly like A statue
"It's been an hour, and that person has hardly moved. Are soldiers all made of wood and can do nothing but kill people?" Several young people in the Chamber of Commerce who were teasing looked at the dark-haired youth. For the soldiers, they were full of curiosity. A joking young woman said, "If this is the case, it would be miserable. At the banquet tonight, my father invited several military officers, and my father asked me to entertain them. If they are so boring. People, how boring it would be"
"In fact, it’s not all. As far as I know, there are still many active and funny officers’ women’s companions," such as the captain of the garrison. People"
"La Laxisu? That excellent officer who has been praised by His Majesty in the rumor? That is indeed a beautiful man who is beloved!"
Hearing the discussion of young men and women, a blond man sitting in the seat on the left at the entrance of the library bowed his head hesitantly. He is Lalassisu, the captain of the regional garrison regiment. He also just got Ordered to come to the library to be responsible for security work, because wearing casual clothes and deliberately lowering the hat, so that people who are not very familiar can not recognize it for a while,
"This is an important protection mission. The protection target is a special envoy from a certain country to negotiate." The superior who delivered the order does not seem to be very clear. The order is temporary,
"Why did the special envoy go to the White Luoan Library?" Lalassisu once asked his Shangguan, and all he got was a blank eye from Shangguan
There has been news that a certain large chamber of commerce from the empire has taken a fancy to the library. In a few months, the library may no longer exist. The era of the temple is over. The Templars who looked through the literature with pious faces here either died on the battlefield or announced their withdrawal from the Knights Templar after being completely disappointed in the temple. This is the case of the times, like the tide coming, like the ebb tide. Only the unchanging setting sun is still so lazy. Although Kakashisu complains in his heart, he also feels a little bit emotional.
"The holy capital is a city for one year, and a capital for ten years. The city is located in a low-lying plain, wet and rainy, and there are more swamps nearby. It can not only irrigate good land, raise fish for food, but also serve as east, west, and west during wartime. The natural barrier on the three north sides. The unique water conservancy system makes the Shengdu Great Plain into a grain-producing area in one fell swoop. The Shengdu built a city wall with a circumference of 12 li, the wall is 15 meters high, the thickest is 8 meters, and the thinnest is 3 meters. Two parts of the city..."
Nalin entered the Gridtai in the evening, and naturally flashed through the Red Dragon Temple’s description of Gridtai. She is the best cartographer in the Gulf of Aden and has the ability to remember.
It’s the first time she has come to the third largest city outside the holy capital. The commercial wind blowing on her face is different from the withered holy capital that has just passed by. The first thing she sees is countless lanterns, some hanging on Some of the gates of the shop residences are held in the hands of pedestrians. They have all the styles, wonderful and colorful, brilliant and dazzling, the girls in colorful skirts are all dressed up, the imperial attire is matched with the sect-style pearl top hat , More full of exotic customs, laughter and laughter one after another, the city gate avenue overflowing with shops, in the crowded streets, the advantage of having the special horse team of the Imperial Southern Intelligence Department opens the way, all the oncoming carriages are Unanimously spread out to both sides, straight ahead to open a big road
The warm atmosphere around made Na Lin feel a little out of place. She remembered the scene when she left Aden, it was the same bustling and lively
Yes, it’s just lively,
In order to attract the attention of the people, boost the morale of the nation, and recover from the major blow, the Royal Highness of the Red Dragon ordered the Gulf of Aden to hold a half-month celebration. Although it is the same joy, there is a kind of poverty. In the evening, the unreal feeling of drunkenness. After all, the Red Dragon Palace is not a secular kingship. If the Red Dragon Palace wants to completely control Aden, it must bring the original Aden nobles into their own camp. Now the war with the empire that can most touch the nerves of the Aden nobles, all Everyone knows that Aden has already suffered a crushing defeat, and the imperial army once again presses the territory, whether it can be stopped is two things.
It is said that the imperial emperor is building a bridgehead to permanently attack the Gulf of Aden area at the southern estuary of Eero. Every day, countless fleets full of weapons and materials enter the Eero River, continuously bringing the empire’s most elite weapons. Transported to the south of Eero, everyone can feel that the next attack of the empire will not be just a tentative attack of 20,000 people, but a war of destruction of at least 100,000 people!
"The Gulf of Aden must immediately prepare for war and expand its troops by at least 500,000, otherwise the country will be subjugated"
Let the generals of the military scream louder than the sky. Faced with the bankrupted palace finances and nearly emptied soldiers, they barely managed to recruit 150,000 people. The Red Dragon Palace uses its own power in the country. The religious influence of the People’s Republic of China calls on the people across the country to donate. Although more than two million donations have been raised, the demand for the expansion of 500,000 soldiers is far from enough
"This is completely impossible to fight. The army is in the field. I am afraid that even the first wave of the imperial army will not be able to stop it. If we choose to stick to it, our army will be defeated by the imperial army one by one. The 10,000-strong imperial army failed to win. Now the imperial strength has increased fivefold, and the strength of its own side has shrunk. This war is even closer. The generals are facing a desperate sand table drill,
Up and down the Gulf of Aden, there is an atmosphere of extinction and decadence, but no one dares to really stand up and talk about peace with the empire,
The empire is already on the line, and everyone does not want to die! Let the Red Dragon Palace try it! The situation is not what it used to be. In the past, Aden had a strong army and had the capital to negotiate. Now the domestic army has lost all the losses and the navy has suffered heavy losses. If you want to get the empire to agree to negotiate, the Gulf of Aden is afraid that it will no longer be able to come up with such a bargaining chip. The Dragon Palace can do a little bit, and the Aden noble faction that originally opposed the Red Dragon Palace will also choose to support the Red Dragon Palace!
A bargaining chip that can fascinate the imperial emperor. After many discussions at the upper level of the Red Dragon Palace, some people proposed to cede the thirteen desert oasis as a peace talk, and some people proposed to cede the southern half to the empire. Anyway, those places have been completely rioted by slaves broken. . . . . . Most people think that if you want the empire to cease war, you must cede the land. Only the high priest himself made a decision that everyone could not think of, using the map of the holy city in exchange for peace with the empire
"This thing can really make the emperor agree to a truce?
is related to the original prophet, but after all, more than a hundred years have passed. The imperial emperor may not believe this." The high level of the Red Dragon Palace was in an uproar. The imperial emperor knew that the holy city did not catch a cold. For the remains of the holy city, which is a huge temptation for others, the emperor always runs away every time. How can it be possible to agree to peace talks now because of the drawings of the holy city?
From the data, it was rumored that the Prophet Ferran built the holy city because of the guidance of some mysterious force, but without knowing why, the prophet Ferran suddenly abandoned the holy city. . . . . The black-haired young man closed the document in his hand with a deep gaze. He can now be sure that Prophet Feilan opened the gene lock and shuttled to this era. It is definitely not accidental. From the description of the holy city in the archives, Du Yu has made an amazing discovery. tower! Feilan wanted to build an aura tower by himself, as expected to be the Prophet Feilan, but failed. . . Or it can’t be said to be a failure, the Holy City is indeed a tool for hoarding huge auras, but I don’t know that Feilan spent countless efforts to build the Holy City, but finally gave up for some reason.
The carriage turned to the southern end of the city, stopped at the wheel of the white Luoan Library, and a pretty tall figure walked down the steps
"Hello Miss Nalin!"
Nalin was stunned to see An Locke in a black dress standing at the entrance of the library~ IndoMTL.com~ lovingly took her arm, ignored her wishes and spoke in the tone of an old friend.
"Why is it so late? If it is later, I will order the execution of those who **** along the way" Enkelo's tone is cold, arrogant, strong, concise and exaggerating,
Cooperating with her arrogant and arrogant aura from her bones, even though Nalin and her were once rivals, it is difficult for her to speak badly for a while.
" Your Majesty was waiting inside, Miss Nalin came with me. "Ancoluo looked sincerely and took Nalin's hand,
The library door was pushed open, and two beauties walked in hand in hand. Nalin’s chestnut hair and brown eyes made people know that she was a beauty in Aden, full of vitality and anger, which made people feel This charming exterior must be wild blood flowing inside,
And Encoluo's face is even brighter, with a pair of bright eyes embedded deep under the two curved eyebrows, like two pools of fragrant spirits, which are amazingly attractive and sultry. Under the delicate bridge of the nose, there are soft and full-featured red cherry lips, which adds a bit more mischief to the cake.
"Which chamber of commerce is this?"
"Never saw it!"
Under everyone's stunned eyes, the two women sat down opposite the black-haired youth
greeted the dark-haired young man's bright and sharp eyes, even Nalin felt a daze. Could the holy city drawing really have such a huge attraction that it directly brought the imperial emperor here!
