“This place is so grand~”
Mo Yuankai stood at the entrance of the museum and marveled. He held a metal box in his hand, which was the barrier central module that had just been taken out from the headquarters.
When Orianna heard the compliment, a look of pride appeared on her face: "This is one of the largest museums in the world, Mr. Mo. The museum contains treasures from all over the world, all of which came from merchants who went to sea in those days. I regard it as the highest honor to present a gift to the royal family."
"Are you sure you bought them all?" Mo Yuankai asked with a smile.
The female knight suddenly became a little unconfident: "I believe that most of them are... businessmen who will not donate their plundered wealth to the royal family."
This is difficult to say. Not many modern businessmen have a conscience. It is hard to imagine how much businessmen in ancient times followed moral rules.
Mo Yuankai took out his cell phone and was about to call his younger brother when he saw a tall green-haired woman coming from a distance and raised her hand to say hello to him.
"Hey, handsome guy! You're Mo Yuankai, right?" Krikki raised her finger at him, "Come this way, your little friend will go in first."
·
The Chief Mage Apprentice's speech is not that elegant, but his demeanor is quite friendly. He is more like a handyman than a researcher. She led the two of them into the museum through the side door, and asked as they walked: "I guess you know the old man? I mean, the chief mage of Loningles."
"How can I make peace with him? We're relatively familiar with each other."
Senior superpowers have more or less dealt with Roninlus. After all, he served as the first consul during the chaotic three years when Cangdu was first built.
To be fair, the officials under the management of Roninlus have done a lot for the Sky City. They have done a good job in municipal planning, established a superpower research system, maintained a stable supply of water and energy, and improved a series of things such as the canopy. Infrastructure construction will also contribute to quelling large-scale riots. But no one has a good impression of Roninlus, because he is the most radical vanguard of the anti-superpower faction.
The extreme chaos during the construction period of Sky City is closely related to this person's attitude. As the first consul, he expressed his disgust towards people with super powers many times in public, and even said "should not be used" Allow them to survive" is an extremely radical statement. He hates all people with super powers, regardless of high or low. In his opinion, these "children of the curse" deserve to die.
Therefore, since Roninlus took office, the troubles in Cangshou District have not stopped. But he was able to escape every time by relying on some weird gadgets - moving armor, movable buildings, haunted cars - and used this to criticize the ferocity of superpowers. Everyone speculated that there was a person with superpowers who abandoned the light and turned to the dark side to become his bodyguard, but there was nothing they could do about him, so they had to gnash their teeth and curse him as an old fool.
"He's a rather despised old man, isn't he?" Krikki said with a clear look. Orianna hurriedly smoothed things over: "Although Mr. Roninles has a weird temper, he is not bad in nature..."
"Girl, do you believe this?" said Criqui.
Orianna fell silent. Mo Yuankai laughed and quickly changed the subject: "I don't have a very good temper as an old man... Anyway, we are here, how about we take a look at the museum first?"
Orianna smiled and nodded: "Of course that's no problem! This month the museum is holding a kingdom infantry exhibition, and classic weapons from all eras are on display. I think you will be interested -!"
Almost at the same time that the three of them entered the hall, a fierce sound broke through the air and came towards Mo Yuankai's face. With quick eyesight and quick hands, the person with superpowers quickly raised his head, only to see a long arrow pierce the position where his head was just now with the force of thunder, creating a big hole in the beautiful stone wall of the museum.
"Wow, what a spectacular exhibition." Mo Yuankai said.
The museum's grand first-floor hall has now completely changed its appearance. All kinds of "harmless" collections were pushed aside early, leaving most of the space for those warriors who were good at fighting. A group of wax figures of soldiers from the Ancient Kingdom wearing long skirts lined up on the south side of the hall. After shouting "Fire arrows!" they all bent their bows and shot arrows. The swords rained across the square, were rolled up by the superpower at the other end, and then shot in the direction of the stairs.
"Go ahead and shoot yourself!
" Gongsun Ce shouted.
"Get out!" On the stairs to the second floor, Roninles raised his cane high, and a group of artillerymen in red military uniforms fell from the second floor. The cannon's fuse made a rustling sound, and the bright black shells smashed through Gongsun Ce's arrows with thunderous sounds. Gongsun Ce put his hands together, and powerful telekinesis was immediately activated from the battlefield, crushing all the cannonballs into powder. He yelled with a ferocious smile: "Old man! Your shabby abilities are of no fucking use to me!"
"Want to see something interesting?" Loninlus slammed his cane on the ground, "Lively!"
Krikki scratched his face and said, "What a shame, the soul-returning mage is angry."
The artillery formations and archers stopped, and a subtle change appeared in these museums. The voices that had been chirping in the painting and book suddenly became quiet. The characters in the painting climbed out of the canvas one by one. The words in the book formed black and white figures, and human figures with the same image as them rose on the backs of the wax figures and armors...
The power that allowed the dead creatures to move rose from the soulless bodies and turned into translucent soul shadows that lingered in the air. These sneaky shadows looked at Gongsun Ce at the same time. They shouted the languages of different eras and rushed toward the superpower like ghosts!
Gongsun Ce took a breath of air. This time, his superpowers had no effect at all. It was like fighting ghosts in the city of shadow and fog. He made a decisive decision and flew into the air, using fancy maneuvers to dodge the living attacks while throwing telekinetic bullets at Roninlus. The superpower attack was completely blocked by the statue in front of the mage. The old man raised his middle finger and laughed wildly: "Idiot! Retarded! Sitting in a well and looking at the sky! Self-righteous!"
Gongsun Ce shouted while running: "Everyone knows you have no mother, no need to talk anymore!"
"You rotten-brained brat, go into your ancestral grave and breed maggots!" the old mage was furious.
Seeing that the fight was about to escalate further, Mo Yuankai quickly put on his armor and jumped into the middle of the battle, advising: "Everyone fight well, be civilized, and don't curse!"
"Are you trying to stop a fight?!" Orianna screamed.
Hundreds of living creatures gathered together and became a fierce ghost that was more than ten meters tall. "Get out of here too." The fierce ghost slapped Mo Yuankai with one claw, and the old mage's voice came out from his mouth: "Return to the soul!"
Mo Yuankai's eyes suddenly became empty, and he seemed motionless as if he had lost consciousness. But his arm automatically lifted up unconsciously. The golden right fist armor glowed brightly, and an emotionless machine sound emitted from the inside of the armor.
"Chongguang Fist."
The right fist armor was launched like a rocket, hitting the huge ghost's body in the middle. The power of the hero's stance explodes within the enemy, completely turning it into light just like when fighting against the dragon beast in the Sky City!
When the light dissipated, Mo Yuankai appeared beside the old mage, his eyes clear and bright. Luoninglus snorted coldly: "Oh...you have made some progress."
"I've suffered a loss once, so I must find a way." Mo Yuankai smiled gently, "At such an old age, it's hard to fight and kill. If something happens to me, everyone will be unhappy. I'm in the city center with my magic power. Everyone is also embarrassed. If there is anything, why don’t we sit down and talk about it? "
·
Roninless's office was as messy as a chicken coop. All kinds of messy statues, crystal balls, bone fragments and other things were piled together. Old books are everywhere, and pages of scattered documents are scattered on the ground, making it difficult to find a place to stay. Six people who were familiar or unfamiliar with each other now entered the room, and Crikey was holding a teapot and pouring tea for the guests.
"No need to pour tea for people with super powers!" Roninlus said with a cold face behind the desk.
"Don't be so petty, old man, you look stupid and stingy."
Criqui pretended not to hear anything, placed the tea cup in front of the two outsiders, and stood behind the old mage. Gongsun Ce glared at him arrogantly and deliberately made a lot of noise while drinking tea. The old mage picked up a book and threw it away.
Alandia realized that if they didn't say something, they might have to fight again, so she had to speak in advance: "Your Excellency, Chief Mage, I have some questions that I would like to consult with you, and I want to ask you for Charlie Morton." Sir’s seal.”
Gongsun Cehu sneered in a fake and intimidating way, and suddenly reacted: "Hey, wait a minute, didn't Kriji steal the seal?"
"This matter is obviously under the instruction of Lord Roninles."
The old mage stroked his beard and sneered: "Now you know that there are people smarter than you? I'll talk about your question later. Let's talk about the seal first. Superpower boys, what do you think of Charlie Morton?"
Mo Yuankai tried to use mild words: "The level is lower than the average level that senior members should have..."
Gongsun Ce put it succinctly: "Trash."
"Stupid, cowardly, extremely incompetent and greedy." The old mage sneered, "That's why he can't be the prince! Just imagine what the country will be like if the queen dies in two months and Charlie ascends the throne!"
"Didn't you wait a moment?" Gongsun Ce said in shock, "Can your Majesty, the Queen, live for a month?"
Roninlus looked at him with a very strange look, a mixture of sympathy, disgust, understanding and sarcasm.
"They didn't tell you? The Liuli disaster is coming, and everyone is likely to die."
Orianna stood up in panic: "Your Excellency, this is confidential——"
"You talk to me about secrets?"
Roninlus scoffed. He gestured, and a plaster bust of a poet flew up from the pile of debris and landed on the desk with a thud. As soon as Roninles knocked on the forehead of the plaster statue, the poet opened his mouth and sang as if he came alive:
"At the beginning of the last month of summer,
The calamity of colored glaze descended from the void.
Fear and greed engulf the royal capital,
Glory and power eventually become nothing.
Hope is elusive and the source is unknown...
Believe in courage and have awareness. "
After the plaster statue finished singing this prophetic song, it became silent. The old mage threw it aside casually and said indifferently: "Do you understand?"
"Can you please translate?" Mo Yuankai said.
Roninlus leaned back in his chair and said impatiently: "There will be a terrible dragon disaster in early August, and Superbia will most likely be destroyed. Everyone here is likely to die, and there is no prediction. You know where to survive, that’s it.”
Gongsun Ce spent several seconds digesting the information. This so-called prophecy was too shocking. He did think that something was going to happen in the kingdom. He guessed that it would be the birth of a treasure, the birth of a master, or a certain conspirator preparing a coup... But he never thought that it would be a dragon.
He tentatively said: "No, is this thing accurate?"
"I hope it's not accurate." The old mage said with a cold face, "This thing is a relic left by a misfortune-creating magic envoy. It has been used for eight hundred years. The only time it went wrong in these eight hundred years was When he predicted an earthquake in the west, he was too literary and artistic, causing the chief mage to misinterpret the scope."
But this time the bust spoke in plain English, which was very difficult to understand even if it was wrong.
Gongsun Ce rarely calmed down. Although dragon disasters often occurred in history, he really had no real "impression" of it. The dragon phenomenon is too ethereal, like an earthquake, tsunami, or volcanic eruption. Everyone knows that there is such a thing, but few people really think that it will fall on their heads. The closest dragon disaster to them was the Sky Dragon, and the Sky Dragon had been under his feet for the past six years.
"Is it necessary to be so nervous?" Gongsun Ce said, "I mean, the dragon in the sky is so big that all the balls are dead, your kingdom is so awesome, why are you afraid of a dragon?"
"A dragon?" Luoninglus grabbed a pile of documents and slammed it on the table, "Did you feed your brain to the pigs?! What do you think that is! That is the monarch of the Konghua Realm. One of the most powerful dragons in history, the aftermath of her appearance created today's Albion Island two thousand years ago. Her true power is enough to overturn the entire world!"
I don’t know a damn thing. Do you think I’m a professional at slaying dragons?
Orianna said unconvinced: "But, Chief Mage, our kingdom is equally powerful! We have four world-creating mages including you..."
The old mage's eyes were as sharp as an eagle, causing the female knight to stop speaking.
"Strong?" Luoninglus said word by word, "No matter how strong the kingdom is, can it be as strong as the empire six years ago?! Even those young people with amazing talents are helpless before the disaster of the sky, and even the sky is not strong. It can completely solve the problem!”
He hammered the table and yelled: "Tell me why you think the kingdom can win? Who gave you the confidence that we are stronger than dragons!
"
What kind of world celebrity is Tianji? Besides, aren’t all the Dragons of the Sky dead? Why do you say it hasn’t been completely solved yet?
Gongsun Ce suppressed his confusion and worked with his elder brother to comfort Orianna, who was about to cry. Mo Yuankai said dissatisfied: "Hey, this is one of your own."
"You deserve to be scolded for saying stupid things!" Roninlus refused to give in. "We must prepare for the worst and consider our direction after we are all wiped out. Harrison, listen up, the most important thing is the crown's The right to belong. If the kingdom's vitality is seriously damaged, Charles' ascension will completely lead it to a dead end. He must get out of the position of prince, must!"
Alandia calmly listened to the old mage's words and asked: "I don't see how this has anything to do with your actions."
Criqui stood at the table, bowed, and said as if reporting: "After taking away His Highness Charlie's seal, I left a letter for him, with the autograph of the old man... Mr. Roninless and Seal. The content of the letter is as follows: Roninless Reclu is very dissatisfied with your performance. If you want to get the seal back, please come to negotiate in person."
After saying this, Criqui Hyde stood back behind the old mage. Orianna felt dizzy: "He...he already knew?"
Loninlus said in disgust: "Now you understand. Not only is he incompetent, he also has no courage."
Gongsun Zhi thought about it and understood the old man's thoughts. This is a simple test. If Crikey fails to steal the seal, it means that Prince Charlie is hiding his clumsiness and everyone is just worrying too much; if the seal is stolen and he tries to negotiate to solve the problem, then This person may still have some hope; but now that he knows the truth but still wants to use the hands of the Dawn Knight to find the seal, it can only mean that this person is hopeless.
But why did Roninlus go to such trouble to do this? Isn’t this a fact that everyone knows? He wanted to prove a point to someone...?
Luoningles said with a sinister smile: "You don't want to take sides, then I will help you make a decision."
Hearing these words, Gongsun Ce reacted. He understood why Roninlus wanted to say this in front of the four of them, because the privacy of the royal family was not important to him at all... What he really wanted to do was to use this matter to show the nature of Charlie's incompetence and let him know The superiors who understood this took sides.
The opinions of the Dawn Knight are crucial, and Orianna's opinions as the bearer of the Last Sword are equally important. If Roninlus has obtained the consent of others, then...
For a moment, everyone in the room looked at the Dawn Knight. Airandia didn't keep everyone waiting for too long. In fact, she responded immediately after listening to the question. Her words merely stated a fact.
"Charlie Morton is the member of the royal family who is most adaptable to the crown, and is also Her Majesty the Queen's favorite heir. He has the greatest possibility of inheriting Her Majesty's impermanent law."
Roninlus said expressionlessly: "Consider the worst case scenario. If we all die, then an incompetent and stupid Realm Envoy will be even more harmful to the country than the evil dragon."
Alandia nodded: "Then Charlie Morton can no longer continue to be the crown prince. This matter should be dealt with as soon as possible to prepare for emergencies."
Roninlus smiled with satisfaction.
"Very good, McCollough also holds the same view. Now let these little brats out, we should have a good talk with the Queen."
Criqui made a gesture of invitation and led a few people except the Dawn Knight out the door. Mo Yuankai was the last to leave. He stood at the door, thinking about the prophecy of the Glazed Dragon, and said, "Actually, you need help. You don't have to talk about it here. You can just talk about it in the Sky Capital."
"I don't need your ridiculous power." The old mage closed his eyes to rest, "Get out of here after repairing the armor."
"Then why do you want me to hear the prophecy?"
Mo Yuankai smiled, closed the door and left.
