When the sun once again crossed the apex of the dome, representing the beginning of a new day, the mainland also ushered in the last autumn. Then, it was the cold winter-exactly the same as in previous years, no difference.
However, this is a very unusual day for all countries on the mainland.
Because on this day, the endless Knights, which had disappeared on the mainland for seventy years, announced its comeback! !
As soon as the news came out, all countries were shocked. Almost every country’s envoys stationed in the Royal City of West immediately transmitted this information to their own country, and almost all countries issued the information after receiving the information. The command is exactly the same: continue to pay attention to the actions of the final knight, and report immediately no matter what they do! !
The Twilight Forest has therefore become the target of many people's attention. Some countries have sent people to the Twilight Forest to try to contact the final Yan Knight. Of course, the intelligence services of these countries have also begun to operate rapidly, quickly collecting all the operations of Yulian since this time, and then reporting to their superiors. After receiving this information, the minds of all countries sighed together, and then threw the information to the side helplessly-this is the same as it was not written, and it is no different than before, who I don't know what the final knights want to do.
However, even so, countries have focused their attention on a few key issues. According to information, Yulian and the court mage Larry Broad of the Kingdom of West have a very good personal relationship, and the relationship with the mage association is also good. But just the day before yesterday, he single-handedly broke into the Church of the Holy Grace and killed two Knights of the Holy Grace, so countries have seen that, at least in the overall situation, there is no change in the final Knights and the previous --- They still have a good relationship with the Masters Association, and at the same time they have a very bad relationship with the Church of Saint Grace.
Of course, these two are forces that transcend national borders. It is unrealistic for countries to do something about this, but they are not stupid. The Masters Association does not care first. The Church of Saint Grace is not a big deal. Trouble, the history of the end of the Knights before the extinction of the three sacred countries that are closely related to the Church of Saint Grace has been excavated again. The Church of Sanctity has more or less churches in various countries. In those countries, before that, the strength of the Church of Sanctification would protect their churches. But this time, various countries have changed this policy in secret, and some big countries have sent people directly to inform the Church of the Holy Grace. There is a conflict between yours and the endless Knights. We are not willing to be implicated in this. Therefore, the defensive duties are currently lifted. If you want to protect the church, then send your own people.
Of course, this is what the powerful countries dare to say. Those small countries that do not have such a powerful force naturally dare not speak to the Church of Grace, but they have also greeted privately and ordered the guards to leave the position of the Church of Grace. A little further away, don't even bother about what happens there, let alone interfere.
It is precisely because of this change that the environment around the Holy Grace Church has deteriorated extremely for a long period of time in the future. The place that should have been a holy land has become a hotbed of crime. All kinds of criminal forces have begun to sprout up around them, of course, this is a later statement, not to mention it.
All countries are paying attention to the positions of the Master Association and the Church of the Holy Grace, but the Master Association is very disappointing and has not made any statement. After all, although the civilization on this continent is well developed, in general, there is still no news system, and it is impossible for reporters to catch up and ask. Therefore, apart from waiting for these large forces to take the initiative to express their opinions, there is no other way. Some people who have a good relationship with the Mage Association have also questioned, and those mage privately also said that they do not have much concern about the appearance of the final Knights. Of course, from a private standpoint. As for the official attitude... today's weather hahaha...
There is not much gain from the Master Association, but these people are not surprised. In fact, they are most worried about the Church of Saint Grace. After all, when the last Cavaliers appeared, they had a battle with the Church of Saint Grace and suffered hundreds of casualties. Ten thousand, the destruction of the Three Kingdoms, the Church of Sanctification almost even failed to save their lives. This time the final knights made a high-profile appearance again, and also killed two holy knights to make a good start. There are also many people who worry that the holy church will convene manpower to wage jihad again, so they are also more nervous, but the holy church It seems that there is no such desire, they still remain silent, as if they have never heard of it. Of course, this is just the apparent attitude of the Church of Sanctification, and what is going on in private is unknown.
In the West, another thing is more important than the end of the Knights.
That is, Her Royal Highness Princess O'Falil, who was rumored to have died 30 years ago, appeared again in front of the public! What’s even more surprising is that just a few days later, Grand Duke Xiulan, Grand Duke Wall, and Grand Duke Fran, the three nobles who held the largest territory in the southern part of the kingdom, announced at the same time that they would no longer accept the prestige. West V’s jurisdiction will never obey the orders of West V again. Not only that, they also asked West V to explain the death of Princess O'Falir thirty years ago.
As soon as this news came out, it made the turbulent West Kingdom more variable.
It is important to know that the Grand Duke and the noble are different. Although the nobility nominally governs a territory and can also have private soldiers, the number of their private soldiers is strictly limited. The army of the territory is still under the direct jurisdiction of the royal family. range. But the Grand Duke is different. In their territory, everything from the army to the law is theirs.
Of course, this is not something anyone can do. These three grand dukes have always been in charge of the southern territory of the kingdom, which is where the whole kingdom produces food and taxes. It can be said that a quarter of the Kingdom’s financial and food income comes from here. Therefore, the royal family of West also very solemnly chose members for mastering and managing the family here. These three grand dukes were all born in the domestic aristocratic family, loyal to the royal family, and are all supporters of the orthodox school. Generally speaking, even if the king did something particularly ridiculous, they would not betray the royal family even if they lost their power.
But right now, this insistence on orthodoxy has become a double-edged sword.
In fact, a long time ago, there was no debate among the ministers as to who should take the throne as Princess O'Falriel and Prince Bocks. After all, O'Falil is young and talented, and he is safe in his dealings. If she is allowed to inherit the throne, it is naturally a good choice for the country. However, from a traditional point of view, O'Fallier was born in the side room after all, and as a woman, she still has inherent disadvantages. But Prince Bocks was born in orthodoxy. Of course he did not have the intelligence of O'Falriel, but it was not a waste. According to the truth, it is not wrong for him to succeed to the throne.
These two opinions have been relatively inconsistent. Only after O'Falil took the initiative to draw a line with the military, did everyone understand the princess's intentions-for them, since the parties did not want to fight, then they did not need to Then worry about this. And, from a certain point of view, this is probably the best combination. Prince Bocks inherits the throne, and Princess O'Falir is on the side. This will definitely make West into a powerful country.
However, this beautiful dream disappeared with the accidental death of Princess O'Falil, and since then, the entire West has begun to move towards the end of the storm. For these three Grand Duke, it is not surprising to make such a decision. After all, Princess O'Falir had the right to inherit. Although it is not very orthodox, it is also the blood of the royal family. It can be said to be half and half with Prince Bocks. But now, the prince personally killed Her Royal Highness, which means that his inheritance is no longer so orthodox! For the royal party, the royal family is naturally the object of their allegiance, but even in it, everyone has the right to choose the one who needs allegiance. At this moment, in the view of the royal party, West V has killed a half-sister, and it has been a big deal. However, during the subsequent governance of the country, he has not been able to advance the kingdom in a better direction, but has gradually declined. And even more incompetent. For such a king, in fact, the statements made by the three grand dukes are already equivalent to forcing him to abdicate. After all, people with a discerning eye can see that if the king is to explain the accident, then it is undoubtedly equivalent to asking the king to admit that he killed the princess by his own hands. In this way, his position as king is naturally impossible. Go on. No one would agree that such people are kings, so the three grand dukes asked His Majesty the king to give an explanation on this matter, which is nothing more than a political euphemism.
Of course, among them, the discerning people are also keenly aware of another problem-that is, Princess O'Falir's current identity is the adjutant of the head of the final knightly knighthood. It is well known that the final knightly knighthood has no position, and, no matter what Say, after all, West V killed the Princess Her Royal Highness, if O'Falir could not swallow this breath and wanted to take revenge, then the final knights might be able to hear the wind, and by that time, I am afraid that before the war with the Sith Empire, West has been completely destroyed. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that the reason why these three Grand Dukes did this is to lose their cars. After all, compared to the incompetent West V, O'Falriel is obviously a better choice, not to mention that now she is standing behind the ultimate knights that far exceeds the strength of the kingdom-once and with She made good friends, so maybe she could even be sheltered by the final knighthood, which is the most important thing.
Compared with the rise and fall of the country, the life and death of a king is not so important... Not to mention an incompetent king.
"We will conduct a thorough and clear investigation on this matter, and we will submit a detailed report on this matter to Her Royal Highness as soon as possible. I hope that Your Highness will take the overall situation as a priority..."
Thinking of this, Yulian raised his head and looked at O'Falil sitting beside him with a smile.
"It seems that your prestige is high, how about it? Would you like to return to this country to become the queen? If you want, I promise you will be able to sit on the throne tomorrow, and that idiot king will never There are any protests-the dead do not need to protest."
"But I am also a dead person, Master Yulian."
Hearing this, O'Falriel smiled bitterly and rolled his eyes angrily.
"But I still want to solemnly protest your speech."
"Okay, the joke is here... what are you going to do?"
Regarding O'Falriel's complaint, Yulian apparently did not intend to respond seriously, but turned his hand and threw the gold-plated letter over. However, O'Falil didn't reach out, and she just stared blankly, watching the letter fall to the ground.
"I do not know."
It was a long time before she said with a wry smile.
"I really don’t know, I’m tired, Master Yulian. I don’t have much affection for the West Kingdom, for the royal family. The reason why I want to do all this is for my mother, in order to let Those nobles can respect her, and can say to her sincerely, "You have a good daughter." In order for the people to respect her and love her, I worked hard and tried to do all this. But now, mother The adult is dead, what is the point of everything I do? Even if it is praised by many nobles and loved by many people, but I can no longer hear the mother’s adult say "good job" to me 'So what does all this mean to me? My hard work and hard work didn't pay off in the end. My mother didn't even enjoy her old age, but was executed for humiliation. Then, I What's the point of doing all this? Even if I became a queen and washed my mother's innocence, but my mother didn't know it, then what does all of what I did mean more than just self-satisfaction? ?"
O'Falir used four "what's the point" to ask back, and it was obvious that her mood had fallen to the extreme at the moment. The girl didn’t have too much desire for power. Everything she did was for her mother and for her mother’s happiness. But now, the person she is fighting for is dead. For Ophelia In other words, the goal she has been striving for has collapsed instantly.
"I don’t care about the future of the Kingdom of West, I don’t care about the threat of the Kingdom, I just want to see my mother with a gentle smile, proud of what I have done, I have only been working hard just for this. .........I am a selfish woman! I admit this!"
Speaking of this, O'Fallar's voice grew louder and louder. Then, she seemed to have lost her strength and leaned on Yulian's shoulders.
"But now, it doesn't matter anymore, Master Yulian, whether it's the Kingdom of West or the Sith Empire, I don't care anymore... Without the praise of my mother, I will do it again Value. For me... that's it."
Feeling O'Falriel's sadness, Yulian was silent. Since leaving the royal city, the high princess seemed to have lost hope for everything. She didn’t even care about her previous reputation, because for Ophalier, the prestige she earned was only for the dedication to her mother. . And now, the high princess seems to have abandoned herself.
"You decided?"
"Yes, Master Yulian."
O'Falil lowered her head and nodded slightly. Then she smiled bitterly again.
"Otherwise, what do you think I will be? Even after they clarify their mother's name? Indeed, I want to use these three princes' ability to find out about my mother is not difficult. But then? They may Build a cemetery for my mother, and I accept their request to become a queen, and then work hard every day to deal with the government of the kingdom? Then go to my mother's cemetery in my spare time and talk to a cold tombstone!?"
Speaking of which, O'Falil clenched his fists tightly again.
"I'm not the kind of woman who evades reality! The reality is that my mother has been executed and she will not respond to my words anymore. So what's the point of me doing this? Will my mother be happy? She Will you be proud of what I have done? I don’t know! Because she has passed away, she will never give me any answer!!!"
It must be said that although O'Falliar's words are cruel, they are cold facts. A girl's efforts to imagine phantoms are certainly stories that make readers feel sad and sighed, but one day, dreams will wake up. There will always be someone who yells at her, "Wake up, everything you want is just fantasy!"
that is it.
"I understand what you mean."
Hearing O'Falriel's final answer, Yulian gently stroked her hair.
"Then I will go back to the front line to continue to supervise the actions of the Sith Empire. How about you? Miss O'Falil? If you wish, you can go back to the Twilight Forest and take a short break. And, I think since that announcement , Twilight Forest will also become a bit lively, and someone will always be used to appease the situation."
"I……………"
Hearing this, O'Falil was silent for a moment.
Then she shook her head.
"It was you who brought me out of the Twilight Forest. Master Yulian, I think I can still do the job. If you think I can't play any role in building the defense against the Sith Empire, you can Order me to go back, but if you just ask for my opinion, then I don’t mean to leave at the moment."
Looking at O'Falriel's eyes, Yulian nodded deep in her heart. Indeed, as O'Falriel said, now she had lost the goal she had fought for. But her pride and self-esteem didn't fall because of this. Although the previous battle with the Windbringer was a serious blow to O'Falil, it was clear that Her Royal Highness did not die.
Even under the harsh conditions in front of her, she was still able to make up her mind to make such judgments and decisions. Obviously, the psychological quality of the high princess was still very good.
"Are you sure there is no problem? Miss O'Falil? The battlefield cannot tolerate a little negligence."
"I confirm!"
Speaking of which, O'Falil clenched his fists again.
"Admiral Youlian, I will try my best to do my best, and I will never let go." (Unfinished. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support , Is my biggest motivation.)
