Act 264: Blessings of the Sea of Light(2/2)
The Empire stationed seven legions, a fleet, and two guild kingdoms in the south, all to guard against threats from the south. Among the seven electorates of the Lizardman, three of the territory was always stuck on the border of the Empire to Gudasok.
Now that the envoys of the Great Parliament are coming again, this is undoubtedly an expression of goodwill.
The relationship between the Oshu people and the Gudasok lizards has been eased again.
This is a big news for every country in Aitalia. Because no matter how the relationship between the Empire and the Grand Parliament changes, it will significantly affect the Empire's attitude towards the outside world. Some people have joked that the Empire will also be in war forever.
When one war ends, it often means the beginning of another war.
Although it is just a joke, it can summarize the aggressiveness and wariness of the Oshu people.
When the Oshy people ended their two-century confrontation with Gudasok, where will the released power go? This is undoubtedly a question that everyone on the mainland needs to care about.
For this reason, when the Lizard Man Envoy arrived in the imperial capital, everyone's eyes were instantly attracted from the events in the Mainland League to this undoubtedly more important news.
The Grand Parliament is here-
And what came was not a small person, but one of the seven new electoral princes, the prince of the Dragon Lizard clan of the White Crane, and the long-known warrior among the Lizardmen.
But what is more eye-catching than this identity is the latter's other identity.
The hero of Fenris.
On the day when Terrarik led his envoys to the imperial capital, the Fenris sent a message of goodwill to the empire through the Association of Craftsmen. Just as Fenris never forgot Fang Zhu, they never forgot His Royal Highness, the Lizard Prince.
But this message expresses goodwill.
To more people, it looks more like a war book.
Prince Tinarek really lived up to expectations, took over the letter of war and made a request to the empire on the spot.
Release Fang Zhu and his group.
The world was in an uproar.
...
"No way-"
Above the Imperial Silver Helmet Holy Court, Duke Hawk flatly rejected this request.
The Duke was a handsome figure, wearing a blue satin robe and holding a scepter. He is now in his fifties, but he is still young and strong, with a short beard on his lips, black hair, and only a little silver thread.
He was tall and looked around the lizards from Gudasok above the king's court, the envoy of the Great Parliament, and was sweeping over the guardians of Asuka's dark knowledge with his gloomy eyes, and finally landing on Tynerek.
"This is the internal affairs of the empire," he spoke, with a decisive tone without any slight room for relief. "It is not something to bargain. It involves a case that has been unsolved for more than twenty years. Several great magicians are closely related to several large families of the empire."
The others looked into the hall.
The supreme man above the throne, wearing a high crown, could not see any emotion on his face, with one hand carrying a philosophical hand that was forged by silver, and the other covered the orb, and the hem of the thick robe he wore was hanging down to the steps.
From a distance, it doesn't look like a person, but more like a god who comes to the mortal world.
His Majesty the Emperor only showed some interest in this, "Which young man with the same name as the great alchemist Ed, is the Saint-Selected?"
Friston, not far from him, nodded. The president came all the way from Ayin Brock. He arrived at the imperial capital not long ago and was summoned before appearing on the royal court.
His Majesty the Emperor actually learned about this matter a month ago. When the turmoil of Aiyin Bullock occurred, the news was passed to the Silver Helmet Holy Court. Who dared to easily cover up the confrontation between the four dragon knights? But that happened more than a month ago and there was no follow-up. The Supreme obviously had forgotten it.
After listening to Friston's story, he nodded slightly, and his face was unanimous.
"Why did the envoy of the Great Parliament know this man?"
Tenerick glanced at Duke Hawk, with an unconcealed coldness in his dragon-shaped vertical pupils.
It took a step forward and said, "Ed is my human brother and a noble guest of the Asuka clan. Even in the Grand Parliament, his identity is only more respectful than me. You say this is a matter of humanity, but I am afraid it is not the case."
"How do you say this?"
The Supreme Man asked.
"Your Majesty, you should know why we came," replied Tynerick. "The stars of Ta-Hers have risen. Our tribes have always kept the promise since the year of rain. Now that the agreement takes effect, we are here to retrieve the holy object."
"I understand this," replied His Majesty the Emperor, "After the Mainland League, you can bring that holy object back to Gudasok from the Silver Tower as a witness to the friendship between the Empire and Gudasok Lizards."
Teneric nodded, "Your Majesty is as clear as the sages said. You should understand that the sea of light is about to cause waves. The year of the Dragon Selection has arrived, and the people chosen by all stars have appeared."
"The choice of stars?" His Majesty the Emperor pondered for a moment, "You mean?"
Duke Hawk's face changed.
"Ed," said Tenarik, "My human brother, who has received the blessings of all stars in Fenris Island, is one of the candidates."
"This is impossible!" The Duke angrily shouted, "It's nonsense!"
But Teneric only turned around and looked at him with his dragon-shaped vertical pupils, "Of course this is not groundless, because I am one of the candidates, I have seen it with my own eyes, and I have been tested with my human brothers and bathed in the blessings from the sea of light."
"The priests of Tada Liz, Ka-Cuilan, and Asuka's wizards can all testify to this. The catastrophe of Fenris is actually just a sign of waves caused by the light sea. It was not accidental that the three major Lizard tribes appeared in that place."
It looked around everyone in the hall.
"It's just that mortals don't know this."
There was silence above the hall.
