162, the plan to escape
162, the way to escape
Amon captured King Lucill of Hati, and let a cat sit on the throne in the middle to enjoy barbecue and wine first, and let the king watch it from the side. This scene angered Celia, the great magician of the palace. Amon sneaked into attacking under her nose and took the king hostage. This was a great humiliation, and it was even more unbearable to do so.
Celia made a duel request to Amon, and Amon agreed. Later, at the banquet of peace talks between the two countries, the matter was brought up again, and Pharaoh Eju and King Hathi even said that they wanted to witness the duel.
Although the duel was only a private act, the duel between Celia and Amon was equivalent to the agreement recognized by the monarchs of the two countries. The unfortunate King Lucill and Pharaoh Rases II had already died one after another. Even if he succeeded Pharaoh Elakht, he could not object to Siamon to participate in this well-known duel. Therefore, this was the best opportunity for Amon to leave Eju.
In fact, this duel should have been held long ago, but many unexpected factors were delayed. As soon as Amon returned to Eju with his army, the Uruk City Legion of the Kingdom of Baron attacked, and the battle made the glory of the general of the Amon Empire. The war had just subsided, and the war between Hathi and Baron Kingdom broke out at the northern end of the Syrian desert.
Prince Ashe and Gore were commanding the battle on the front line and were about to win a great victory, but news suddenly came from the city of Hatha's capital Hatha that King Lucier had passed away. Ashe's brother Enis succeeded to the throne and became the new king under the support of the left-behind ministers, and urgently summoned Prince Ashe to return to the capital to attend the funeral of Lucier.
Lucill asked Prince Ashe to command the army and asked Gere to assist him. The intention was already obvious, and he wanted to spread the situation in Ashe and let him establish meritoriousness before he ascended the throne. Lucill's death was very sudden, and everyone suspected that it was related to the dispute over the throne. If Prince Ashe really handed over the military power and returned to the capital, it would be like a sheep entering the mouth of a tiger.
With the approval of Gore and the support of the frontline generals, Prince Ashe quickly ended the war with the Kingdom of Baron in negotiations, and led the elite troops of the army and the generals to return to the capital in the name of participating in the national funeral. The new king Enis was originally guilty. He knew the most clearly whether there was any inside story of Lucill's death, and he did not expect Prince Ashe to lead the army back to the court.
Inis succeeded to the throne with the support of the kingdom's prime minister, Juguli. In panic, he followed the prime minister's advice and opened the divine art formation to protect the capital, blocking everyone outside the city, and asking Prince Ashe to enter the city alone to lead the crimes against the kingdom.
Ashe did not fully comply with the king's orders, but he could not be said to be guilty. Inis did not expect the war to end so quickly. His original order was to ask Ashe to hand over the position of commander-in-chief of the battlefield to Gere and come back to attend the funeral. Ashe was finished, the kingdom of Barron withdrew his troops, and Gere and the generals also came back with Ashe. Ashe did not make any mistakes on the surface, but instead made contributions to the country!
The generals quit and proclaimed in the army that Prince Enis killed his father and usurped the throne. Now he is going to kill the meritorious ministers. He plans to launch a mutiny to attack the capital. A civil war is about to break out. The city of Hatusha is strong and protected by the magical formation, which is difficult to attack. No matter who wins, the final result will be both defeated.
At the critical moment, Gelie asked Kaichengmen to enter the capital alone. He was the honorary chief veteran of Hati Theological Academy. He had a very high prestige in the kingdom and no one stopped him.
Gelie went to the palace to meet with the new king and reported the war on the front line, and asked privately: "His Majesty the King, you should know the result. If Prince Ashe must launch a mutiny, the king will not be able to defend it. What will happen to you then? What will happen to the Kingdom of Hati? Do you want to hurt the entire kingdom in a civil war and eventually die, or do you want to solve it decently?"
Enis didn't want to hear this, so he detained Gelie in the palace in the name of discussing state affairs, which triggered the division of various factions in the capital city and the dissatisfaction of the people. The Hati Divine Art Academy first opposed the king's detention of Gelie, and even stated that if the chief elders were not released, they would no longer operate the divine art formation that guarded the capital.
Even if Gere did not resist, Enis would not dare to kill him. If the new king did not kill Gere, he could negotiate. If Gere was killed, it would definitely cause a mutiny. King Asher sent Prime Minister Juguli to persuade Gere to support him. Juguli's nephew was Gere's favorite student Raphael, who thought Gere was of the same interest group as him.
As a result, Gelie asked the prime minister: "I don't ask how King Lucill died. Do you know your fate? Do you want to ruin yourself while the kingdom was broken and the kingdom was greatly traumatized. Or do you want to end this palace coup decently, and don't let innocent soldiers and people bury them with you? I can guarantee the safety of your family. As long as you persuade Enis as I say, he is very scared now, but he refuses to listen to what I say."
In the end, Gelie was released from the palace. The new king ordered him to live in Hati Theology Academy, which was equivalent to disguised house arrest. At this time, Ashe outside the city had led a large army to surround all the gates of the capital. There was also a lot of news spread in and outside the city. Outsiders did not know the final resolution of the incident, but there was no coup or mutiny in the Hati Kingdom.
The magicians of the royal capital stopped the formation to protect the city. Prince Ashe and his generals led hundreds of personal guards into the city and lived in their own mansions. The Hati Divine Art Academy and the Lord of the Hati respectively sent people to protect the palace and Prince Ashe's mansion. That night, the new king, Enis, who had just succeeded to the throne for a month, announced his abdication and was passed down in Ashe.
Ashe regained the throne. If he launched a mutiny, he might have achieved his goal, but the meaning now is completely different. Inis took the initiative to abdicate. The new king who had just succeeded to the throne issued an edict, claiming that because his father suddenly died, the country could not be without a king for a day, so he temporarily took over the power and stabilized the overall situation. Now that the wise and powerful prince Ashe has returned, his father has long had the will to make Ashe the new king. Inis's mission has finally been completed and officially passed on to Ashe, and he is very pleased.
This is the best ending for Enis. He is also the official monarch in the genealogy of the Hati Kingdom. He is not a usurper but an voluntary abdication and giving way to the wise. His short one month of kingship can be regarded as a meritorious service for the country. This is also the result of the compromise between the forces of all parties. Gerett Ash promised not to hold all those involved in this coup responsible.
As the situation forced, even if Enis didn't want to agree, someone asked him to agree. Prince Ashe successfully succeeded to the throne, avoiding the civil war that split the kingdom. Prime Minister Juguli resigned due to illness, and his glorious title also preserved his family. Although Ashe promised not to hold the kingdom's ministers accountable, the change of power and purge was inevitable, and the prime minister's resignation was one of the examples.
Gelie stayed in the king's capital until the situation stabilized before leaving. The contribution he made was too great. King Ashe didn't know how to reward him. He gave Gelie no need to salute him in front of the king, and had special seats in the palace for glory. He asked him in person: "Mr. Gelie, you are like my father. How should Ashe thank you?"
Gelie smiled and said, "All this I have done is for the people of Hadi. If Your Majesty wants to thank me, please treat this kingdom well. Let me live the life I want. As long as this is the case, I will thank Your Majesty."
Doing what you like is the heaviest reward, almost no one can get it, but Gelie got it. Gelie didn't want to stay in the capital and be a powerful minister, so it was certainly not easy for Ashe to force him. He returned to the Syrian city-state and promoted Wallet to the main priest of the city-state, and he continued to have the glory of the chief veteran of the Hati Divine Arts Academy.
Ashe once wanted to appoint Raphael as the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Kingdom, which was to win over the forces originally supported the Enes faction and also to give Grey face. However, Raphael did not intend to do so and still stayed in the Syrian city-state as a high priest.
Celia, the great palace master, also experienced this series of storms. Of course, she had no time to duel with Amon. Moreover, during this period, she was at the junction of breaking through the eighth level achievement and needed to concentrate on her cultivation. By the time she officially achieved the eighth level achievement, the Kingdom of Hati had returned to peace and could send messengers to find Amon to agree on the time and place of the duel.
Before Celia's messenger set out, Amon's messenger arrived first, John.
Amon asked John to leave Eju with thirty-six guards first, and there was also a task to find Celia to agree on the time and place of the duel. John took Amon's handwritten letter, which read: "You choose the location, and be in Hathi; I set the time, when I arrive." Amon asked John to seize the opportunity and go to find Celia when Moses and others were about to leave Eju.
Celia's reply was quick, and immediately sent a messenger to Eju and set the place for the duel, which was where Amon captured King Hati alive. As for the time, of course, after Amon arrived there, the general was in charge of himself, and Celia would wait at any time.
When Celia's messenger arrived, Amon, who was behind closed doors to thank guests, of course, had to personally receive him and hold a banquet to express his hard work for thousands of miles. The messenger was secretly surprised when he saw the legendary general of the Aju Empire, Amon. Amon looked too young, just a young man, but he gave people the feeling that it was so deep, just like an unfathomable god.
Amon was already very strong at the age of sixteen, and his physique was no different from an adult. He was old and in an environment like Duke Town, the son of an old drunkard took on the burden of life very early, and opportunities forced him to ripen prematurely. Later, he was regarded as a god in the cave-dwelling savage tribe, and his words and deeds naturally had a certain temperament.
But these are not the main reasons. Amon has just experienced hundreds of years in Schrödinger's soul mark, which is like hundreds of years! In the past, he gave people the feeling that he was young and more stable and tenacious than his peers. However, Amon is invisibly invisible and feels unfathomable.
But his appearance has not changed much since he broke through the seventh level of strength of both sides at the age of seventeen. His face is very handsome, with short slightly curved hair, and sometimes his smile looks like a child. The messenger originally had full confidence in his master Celia, but after seeing Amon with his own eyes, he felt unsure and wanted to go back and tell Celia about this feeling.
The messenger was a young man in his twenties with a round head and eyes, and looked a bit cute, cute and yet elegant. He was named Yaolio. He humbly called himself "Xiaoyao" in front of Amon and was Celia's servant. Amon told Yaolio that he would soon set off to the designated location on the southwest shore of the Inland Lake, and would immediately notify Celia after arriving.
Yao Leo smiled and said, "The General does not need to inform Lord Celia. I will be waiting for you there. As soon as you arrive, Lord Celia will receive news."
Rumor Leo said goodbye and left. Before leaving, he pointed to Schrödinger who had been staying by Amon and said, "Is this cat the pet brought to the battlefield by the general? It's really extraordinary!"
Schrödinger sneezes and twists his neck and ignores Leo. After he leaves, Schrödinger says to Amon: "This messenger is not a human being, have you found out?"
Amon was slightly stunned: "I think this person is not simple, but I didn't realize that he is not a human being. What do you mean?"
Schrödinger: "You have all my knowledge, but after all, you have not reached my achievements back then. You can see that this person is unusual, but you have not sensed his innate aura. He should be similar to me back then. He is both beasts who have achieved spiritual and intellectual cultivation and can transform into human form rather than transforming magical arts or information magical arts, so you don't see it... Do you remember what Celia said when she asked you for a duel?"
Amon thought for a while and replied, "She told me that after the war is over, I will take the spirit beast I summoned, and you will take this cat and have a real competition!"
Schrödinger nodded and said, "Since he proposed to bring the summoned beasts to fight with him, that Celia must be a master of summoning magic. The summoned beast she mentioned is probably this Yao Leo. Now come and see the opponent in advance. You must be careful in this duel, and the one who is really guarding against should be the summoned beasts."
Amon has never practiced the summoning magical art, but he understands that the magical arts fostered some mutant beasts that opened up their intelligence, taught them all kinds of magical powers, and used magical arts to set up soul contracts, allowing them to accept the summoning of magical arts to help fight. In a broad sense, Best was actually Osiris' summoning spirit beast back then. From a broader perspective, the magical arts of the undead are also a kind of summoning magical arts that can condense the power of the soul for their own use.
But the clever summoning magic technique in the world usually refers to a situation where the great magician sets a contract with powerful mutant monsters, teaches them many secrets of cultivation in the world, and provides various help. As a exchange condition, the summoning beast appears in battle and helps the great magician fight against powerful enemies.
Sometimes summoning spirit beasts is even more powerful than summoning their masters. Soul contracts require them to voluntarily make. After all, it is particularly difficult for beasts in the wild to practice alone. Maybe they will be hunted down as demons. If they receive the protection and help of a great magician on earth, they will have various unimaginable benefits and conveniences.
Amon nodded and said, "I have seen Celia take action. For a level 7 master, she is already very powerful. She hasn't seen her for such a long time, maybe she may have broken through the level 8 achievement, but I am confident that I will not lose to her. As for that little rumor, he restrained his breath, and I can't see how powerful it is, but at least it should not be inferior to me in realm, and should be stronger than Celia."
Schrödinger said with concern: "He has at least eighth level achievement, and summoning spirit beasts are different from humans. Have you ever seen Yunmeng, who has a talented foundation of divine art, and it is not changed by the power of awakening. Once many mutant beasts have high-level achievements, they do not need to wake up the power of power. Celia asked you to deal with her and her summoning spirit beasts with me, but unfortunately I don't have the power to help you fight now. Can you deal with them alone?"
Amon looked at Schrödinger with a soft smile: "Would you like to be my summoning beast?"
Schrödinger's tone was hard to tell whether he was wronged or acted coquettish: "If you had to make me a summoning spirit beast, of course I wouldn't refuse to agree, but I could only act like this."
Amon laughed out loud: "Why are you so pitiful? I am not Osiris, nor are you Best. I have never regarded you as a pet, waiter, or summoning spirit beast, and I will not let you do such a thing. As for the duel with Celia, I have already thought about the choice of helper, which is also its experience."
Schrödinger suddenly reacted and said, "Are you talking about Yunmeng? I don't know exactly how powerful Yunmeng is now, but it should not be the opponent of that Xiaobiao."
Amon shook his head: "I don't plan to let Yunmeng deal with Xiaoya. It just needs to restrain Celia. I will deal with this powerful summoning beast myself. This duel will definitely be very interesting... Not to mention this, this duel is just an excuse for me to leave Eju after Moses and the others. What I care about the most now is you."
Schrödinger: "Me? That's not easy to deal with. Just like before, you put me in your skin pocket and carry it on your body, and let's leave Eju together. As for the matter of untiing the seal of the soul, you have tried your best. Don't rush to take your time. Do your own thing first and don't delay it because of me."
Amon looked up at the sky and sighed, as if there was a deep regret. Schrödinger asked strangely: "What's wrong with you? You rarely hear you sigh like this. You seem to have discovered something, but you seem to have lost something?"
Amon smiled and said, "Before the messenger arrived, I had found what the seal was that imprisoned your soul. You can untie it at any time as long as you want, but if you can't untie it yourself, you can never untie it."
Schrödinger said in surprise and joy: "Have you found a way to untie the seal? Why am I not willing! Tell me quickly that I have been waiting for a hundred years, and finally I have been waiting for today."
Amon was not in a hurry, sat down next to Schrödinger, gently patted its back with his hand and said, "What methods did Osiris use? It is not what I can understand, but the soul is imprisoned first depends on you. Can I ask you a few questions? First of all, please tell me that Best did not disappear back then, but the soul has changed into a body, right?"
Chapter completed!
