Chapter 242: The secrets of the royal family of Sauron

Chapter 242 The Secret of the Sauron Royal Family
The next day, the king once again sent someone to invite Roddy into the palace.
The carriage protected by the Royal Knights entered the palace directly, but did not go directly to the hall where the king talked to Roddy every time.
In the palace, a smaller-looking carriage was replaced, and the guards of the Royal Knights did not follow along. Only two officers of the Royal Knights accompanied Roddy, taking advantage of the inconspicuous carriage. , Went out from the other side door of the palace and went directly to a high ground behind the royal capital.
The entire layout of King Sauron's capital city looks like an oval-shaped city. In the center of the city is King Sauron's palace, and behind the palace, there is a highland—in fact, a low hillside.
I don't know why, when the Royal City was built, the highland was already included in the city wall, and the woods behind the highland became a royal garden.
And the carriage in the palace came out, perhaps to cover people's eyes. Because Roddy’s motorcade entered the palace with great fanfare, no one would have thought that the dignified Envoy of the Bright Empire would not bring any guards, just sitting in an inconspicuous carriage and going out from the other side entrance of the palace. Up.
And he didn't bring any guards, which was also what the king meant: he already knew that Roddy was strong, and with those guards, he was at best just filling the front.
The carriage went directly to the royal garden behind the palace. The environment here is similar to the hunting grounds that Roddy had seen in the Tulip family fief. There are fences separating the gardens. A small team of cavalry patrols back and forth to protect the royal family. The safety of the garden.
Roddy wanted to ask the two officers of the Royal Knights who brought him with him, but the two men refused to say a word since they got in the car. What question did Roddy have, the other's answer was just one sentence: " This is an order from His Majesty the King. I was only instructed to invite Lord Earl to go."
Gradually in the garden, there is a small open area, and a simple palace is built in the middle. The four surrounding outposts protected the palace in the middle, and a pair of soldiers wearing the armor of the Royal Knights patrolled back and forth.
The carriage stopped here, and Roddy got out of the carriage with some doubts, and followed the two officers into the palace.
This palace is not so much a palace as it is a big house.
Although the area is not small, it only has three floors, and it is not as coarse and atmospheric as other Sauron style buildings, but with a sense of exquisiteness.
But after Roddy walked into this building, the layout inside still highlighted the standard Sauron style building: iron blood!
Metal candle holders, black iron and wood furniture, tables and chairs, as well as the dark fireplace next to it, and the bright red thick carpet at the foot. This black and red intersecting city decoration all reflects a kind of The feeling of "iron and blood".
When he came to this room, Roddy had gone through three checks.
The two officers who led the way did not consciously follow, and in the room there was only the king sitting on a chair in front of the fireplace with his back facing Roddy.
"How is it? It's not bad here? Lord Roddy? How does it compare to the garden of your family fief?" The king's voice came from behind the chair.
Roddy smiled secretly in his heart, this king is still trying to test his identity, otherwise, why do you say something like "family fief"?
Roddy smiled deliberately: "Your Majesty joked, I'm a little earl, where is my own garden. But the layout here is somewhat similar to the hunting ground of the Tulip family fief."
The king stood up, and Roddy noticed that this King Sauron did not wear the exquisite robes of the past today, but a uniform! A set of golden inner armor was put on the body, and a bright red cloak was put on the back.
The king stood there, playing with a small and delicate dagger, looking at Roddy with a smile on his face.
"Your Excellency Roddy, know why I invited you here today?"
Roddy shrugged: "Your Majesty wants me to hunt with you, right? It's just that the season doesn't seem to be the time."
The king laughed, but Roddy couldn't hear any pleasant meaning in his laughter—on the contrary, the king seemed to be hiding his nervousness with laughter.
"Lord Roddy!" The king looked serious: "I want to show you today the biggest secret of the Sauron royal family for hundreds of years! I don't know, are you interested?"
Roddy frowned subconsciously.
secret? Humph, what idea did this guy make?
I’m afraid there must be some reason to tell others about my secret. Roddy didn't believe that the other party would be willing to reveal his secrets for no reason. God knows what this king wants from himself.
Roddy squinted his eyes and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I hope you don't let me see anything too amazing-I am not brave."
The king whispered: "Are you very courageous? Not necessarily."
Roddy smiled leisurely: "I'm not afraid of anything else. I just know someone else's secret, and I have to bother to keep this secret, for fear that one accidentally reveals it...Such a thing is too troublesome."
The king laughed again. Then he walked to the front of the fireplace, thrust the dagger in his hand into the mouth of a certain embossed beast on the wall, and then twisted it.
There was a faint sound of clicking from behind the wall, and after a series of noises, the wall above the fireplace slowly turned!
The entire wall slowly turned, revealing a black space behind. Behind a dark passage is a spiral staircase, all the way down...
Roddy was a little surprised: "This is..."
The king smiled triumphantly: "Your Excellency Roddy, this is the biggest secret of the Sauron royal family for hundreds of years! You are the first outsider to know this secret!"
Roddy took a deep breath, tried his best to endure the curiosity in his heart, and calmly said: "Your Majesty, you suddenly called me here and showed me such a scene, hehe, what do you mean..."
The king raised his hand and gently stroked the dagger inserted in the mouth of the embossed beast. He did not answer Roddy's words, but suddenly asked: "Rody, do you know the history of the royal family of Sauron?"
Roddy was stunned, and then said: "Your Majesty, is this the test of me? You are disappointed. After all, the two continents are far apart, and because of the relationship between the two sides, there has been very little contact. For the history of your country, I still It’s really not very clear... All I know is that the Kingdom of Sauron is the most powerful of all the kingdoms of Roland. Your country owns half of the land of Roland and has the most powerful army of all the kingdoms of Roland. And..." At this point, Roddy deliberately glanced at the king.
The king sighed and said, "And... Sauron is also a kingdom that has always dared to go against the temple in secret, right?"
Roddy didn't speak, but the expression on his face was clearly acquiescence.
The king nodded, his fingers gently tilted the dagger he was rubbing, and he said in a deep voice: "What you said is pretty good. The kingdom of Sauron can be said to be the only power that has the capital to compete with the temple... …For a long time, the
sages
sent by the temple to the kingdom of Sauron have not been able to fully obtain authority. This is completely different from the
sages
sent by the temple to other kingdoms. You must know that in other kingdoms, the authority of the saints It can even be above the king! Only in Sauron! The highest authority in the land of Sauron will always belong to the royal family! It can only belong to the royal family!!"
At this point, the king seemed a little excited, but soon he noticed that he was out of control emotionally, took a deep breath, and according to the emotions in the Lord’s heart, the king slowly said another sentence: "This is the pattern. It was not only because the Sauron royal family'dare' to fight against the temple! More importantly, the Sauron royal family is the family that is'the most qualified' to fight the temple!!"
"Oh?" Roddy was really interested.
The king's voice gradually lowered, and his tone was a bit of nostalgia: "In your opinion, the Bright Empire is undoubtedly the largest empire in the world at the moment! You own the entire continent, and the imperial power can override everything in the empire. A powerful empire, fully capable of facing any enemy who dares to challenge... But did you know? The Bright Empire is not the only great empire that appears in this world!! Once upon a time, an ancient one also appeared in this world empire!!"
"According to the teachings of the gods, the origin of mankind came from the Roland Continent, and the sacred records of the gods only began to tell from the countless small kingdoms of the Roland Continent...Hahahaha...It is ridiculous!! "The king's eyes were electric, with a bit of anger and sorrow in his voice. He clenched his fists and shouted in a low voice: "A few hundred years ago before the era mentioned by the religious texts! The entire Roland continent was one A complete country! A huge empire!"
"Oh?" Roddy's eyes lit up. This was something he had never heard of.
Regardless of whether it is the Bright Continent or the Roland Continent, although the two Holy Sees are hostile to each other, the beginnings of the sacred texts are almost the same. The historical records are also from the "dark age" a thousand years ago.
The earliest history of mankind recorded in the religious texts seems to have begun when the Roland Continent was composed of countless small kingdoms and tribal forces. Mankind is a scattered sand, fighting each other. And then, after a long melee, the first great pope Moses was born, leading mankind across the Thundering Strait, and began the war to conquer the Kara tribe of the southern Guangming Continent... Then humans occupied the Guangming Continent and became extinct. Kara ethnic group. The division within the religious religion has become the two Holy Sees in the north and the south.
There are countless small kingdoms in the southern and northern continents, and they continue to be chaotic.
But only because of the emergence of a great emperor in the Bright Empire, Abbas the Great, and a group of invincible commanders of the Tulip family, and Dandong, who is good at creating miracles. In the end, the Bright Empire of the southern continent came to the fore, unified the southern continent and established a great empire—this is what Roddy knew, and the only huge empire recorded in history that could own the entire continent.
Isn't the Bright Empire the first empire in human history? ?
The king gradually showed a somewhat tragic smile: "The teachings of the gods, okay! okay!!" His tone was a bit dignified: "How many sinful things in this world are under the name of the truth. It was done in name!!!"
Roddy was very clever and didn't speak, waiting quietly. He knew that the king's story was far from finished.
The remembrance in the eyes of the king is even stronger: "All ancient records have been obliterated with the advent of the'Dark Age'. The religious canon, a lie that almost distorts history! It can blind the whole world!! Luo Your Excellency Di, let me tell you, in ancient times! On this continent under your feet, there was a great empire! This empire has thousands of hardworking subjects! It has millions of heroic troops! It has the entire Roland continent. !!! All races, whether they are humans, or the now-famous chameleon family, or the legendary elves or dwarves, are all under the rule of that great empire! The name of that empire is called'Shaka empire'!!"
"The Shaka Empire?" The shock on Roddy's face was real. An unfamiliar name can own the entire continent. In any case, this name should not be unfamiliar!
"Yes!" The king smiled lightly: "This place where you are standing now is the capital of the Shaka Empire in ancient times! And this highland, this garden, thousands of years ago... well, even longer... …Here! This is the palace of the Shaka Empire!!!"
Several thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning, and he couldn't help but blurt out: "Then what does this have to do with the royal family of Sauron...Ah! I see!"
The king nodded and solemnly said: "Royal Sauron is actually the only blood of the royal family of the Shaka Empire in the ancient times!" He sighed: "This secret, no one has ever known, even the temple, thought that the Shaka Empire royal family It's already extinct! Humph!"
He raised his eyelids and looked at Roddy, and slowly said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency Roddy, I have even told you this secret honestly today. I have regarded you as an ally that I can trust! Then you, Should I also show a little sincerity? In other words, there is no need to keep guarding your secrets that there is no need to hide my secrets!"
Roddy was indifferent-he knew that the king had told himself this big secret, obviously in order to win him over and gain his trust-and the other party's exchange condition was undoubtedly to admit that he was the Duke of Tulip!
When the king saw that Roddy didn't speak, he didn't care, but said slowly: "In Roland's ancient language, the word'Sauron' means revival! The kingdom of Sauron, the mission of the Sauron royal family is revival! Rejuvenate the great empire of our ancestors!"
The king's face was a little deformed because of his excitement. He seemed unable to restrain the excitement in his heart, and the hand holding the handle of the dagger trembling slightly.
"Your Excellency the Duke of Tulip!" The king spoke slowly. He glanced at Roddy. He saw that Roddy didn't oppose the title this time. He was satisfied. He continued: "Are you interested in going down with me and see, we What about the great relics of the Shaka’s royal family? Look at the secrets of mankind left over from ancient times?"
After he finished speaking, facing the steps behind the fireplace, he slowly stretched out his hand to make a motion, and smiled softly: "Please!"
