This legendary archmage who is dedicated to the public added: "We should standardize this competition model and conduct it through construction and development instead of internal war and self-destruction."
"Your Excellency, President, these worries of yours are a bit premature." The Palace Archmage said with a smile, "This matter requires all the protagonists to attend, and only after asking for their opinions can we formulate specific policies. Before that, we first need to reach a consensus internally, otherwise how can we advance this matter?"
"What the Archmage said makes sense. Since you are prepared, I will wait and see what happens." Maxer sat down on a seat aside, indicating that he fully supported King Asan's decision on this matter. No more objections.
"I will return to Arabe City immediately to try to convince Ms. Leyana, the leader of the Red Crow Mercenary Group." Milman is an old man who has followed King Asan for many years, and he instantly read a lot from his decision.
They wanted to take the opportunity to expose the whole matter to the public, including the secret promoters like themselves.
This is not entirely a bad thing, it is also a disguised acquiescence. She can use the power of Arabe City to a certain extent to support the Red Crow Mercenary Group and enhance their competitiveness.
"I wonder if we, Tiffanydon, are qualified to join this competition?" Tiffanydon City Lord Aracelin is now unable to stand alone, so she can only take a back seat, allowing the Tiffanydon and Qiuyi families to also have a chance to compete.
"As long as those who can clean up and manage Yandi can be rewarded as Barons of Yandi regardless of their origins." King Yasan did not answer directly, but repeated Yandi's policy.
"Your Majesty, I have no objection." Aracelin also sat down, secretly calculating how much power they could use and how much chance of winning they would have if they joined the competition. Her biggest advantage was that she had already taken control of Tiffany.
Although the local forces in Tifanton have involved her energy for three years, these efforts have not been in vain. Most of these local forces are already under her control and can be her help.
With this as a trump card, she can exchange for more assistance.
"Two city lords, you still have one hour to prepare. Our guests are about to enter the city." The palace mage waved his hand, and the crystal pillar in the center of the royal court's meeting hall flickered, and a three-dimensional projection immediately appeared. In front of everyone.
The image projected above is the Horn Gate, one of the two major gateways in Susar City.
At this time, the Horn Gate was crowded with people, including the citizens of Susar who were watching the excitement. They came not only for their beloved crown princess Tenarasta, but also for the conqueror Gavin who was in the prime of his life.
Gavin the Conqueror, this name can be said to be the most frequently chanted name in Susar City in the past month or so.
As a commercial metropolis, it means that Susar City is not generally well-informed.
When the army of conquerors penetrated the Giant Plains in a sweeping pattern, his name had already spread here. Just because they defeated monster forces, very few people knew about the situation at that time, and due to geographical reasons, The spread range is relatively small.
When the conqueror's army stirred up troubles on the Dragon Coast and forced the dark forces here to form a grand alliance, even the ordinary citizens of Suzal began to hear his name, because his actions had already affected their lives. cause direct impact.
The entire Dragon Coast is in turmoil, and many transactions that were originally intended to be carried out there can no longer be carried out. The goods can only be transported to Susar or Masembo, which are only separated by a lake. Although the latter is the majority, they are still given. Their lives have brought many shocks.
It was disastrous that the goods that were originally shipped to the dragon coast to be sold at a high price were smashed into their hands.
There are also those who make a fortune, and goods that were originally worthless have become in short supply. Some goods that were expensive on the Dragon Coast have to be dealt with cheaply in Susar to prevent losing all their money.
No matter which one it was, they all remembered the names of the Conqueror Army and Conqueror Gavin, and paid them more attention. After all, the situation in the goblin frontier was closely related to their Kingdom of Cormyr.
This is another difference between the people of the Kingdom of Cormyr and people from other places. Not only the princes and nobles at the top are concerned about the political situation of the entire kingdom, but also the merchants, traders, and lackeys below, especially the citizens of Susar. .
This is the sense of recognition and honor brought by a country that has been inherited for thousands of years. Even the ordinary people believe that what happens in this country is directly or indirectly related to them.
The battle of the conqueror's army took place under such a highly publicized situation. Not only did it reach the ears of the citizens of Susa for the first time, but the course of the war was immediately compiled into a textbook and spread throughout the country. The entire Purple Dragon Knights' use of planning and strategy and the perfect combination of the battle between humans and gods in that battle cannot be copied, but the many war concepts in it can be used for reference, allowing them to have a better understanding of Ms. Strategy's teachings. A profound understanding lets them know that war can still be fought in this way.
All in all, Gavin the Conqueror's popularity in Susar was much greater than he imagined.
And the general's escort carefully planned by Gavin is unexpectedly eye-catching.
The first ones to clear the way were two Yin Hong Marauders. They were carefully selected. They may not be the most powerful in the entire Yin Hong Marauder Corps, but they were definitely the tallest. They were both the same height, and both were four. Mi 2.
Wearing large, tailor-made sealed armor, they were covered tightly from head to toe, with only a pair of wild red eyes exposed. A blood-colored cloak slowly fluttered as they walked. They had two pairs of symmetrical left and right pairs. Although the arms did not hold any weapons, no one dared to doubt their lethality based on their thickness.
Following them were two hobgoblin giants dressed in the same style. The only difference was that they were carrying a large tower shield that was comparable to the door panels of ordinary people. This kind of defensive weapon, with sufficient power, can also It can also be turned into a powerful offensive weapon.
Following closely behind them were two Goliath barbarians. They only wore armor on key parts of their bodies. They were covered with thick and blunt thorns, silently telling others that they were not as simple as armor. They were carrying armors behind them. A huge, peace-knotted weapon.
Whether it is the hobgoblin giant or the Goliath barbarian, based on their size, if they walked separately, they would definitely be the most eye-catching existence on the street. However, compared with the red predator walking at the front, they are somewhat inadequate. Looking at it, it looks like a dwarf from a distance.
But when they walked along the street and walked in front of them, the citizens of Susa realized that they were all a group of behemoths, the kind that they had to look up to see.
But compared with the two behemoths who entered the city at the end, the Yinhong Marauders walking at the front were a bit underwhelming. They were two giant bears, terrifying existences exceeding six meters in size. When they walked on the street, The originally wide promenade seemed to have become narrower.
What’s even more surprising is that the two giant bears didn’t look at the crowds on the street and drooled as if they were seeing delicious food. Instead, they greeted the citizens of Susa in the common language enthusiastically, and many of them were greeted on the spot. The child was frightened and cried.
This is an intelligent bear.
The knowledgeable citizens of Susar revealed their identity at one glance, but more questions came up.
I just don’t know how these bears have been enlightened? Or was it transformed from a bearman or a druid?
If they are enlightened, there is no way to explain their situation as dire bears. Dire bears are magical beasts and cannot be enlightened using enlightenment.
If they were transformed by bears and druids, they would not be able to accept being ridden. After all, they were naturally intelligent creatures with thoughts similar to those of humans.
The two giant bears have special saddles on their backs, one on the left and one on the right, with a person sitting on each, a man and a woman.
The woman was flawless in both appearance and temperament, with a silent nobility. She smiled and greeted the surrounding citizens frequently, and even recognized the identities of many people. Every time she called a name, she It caused a burst of cheers in the crowd, especially those whose names were called, their faces flushed with excitement, and the following cheers were particularly vigorous and hoarse.
Because the other person is none other than the Crown Princess of the Kingdom of Cormyr, Tenarasta. What an honor it is to be remembered by her name? Especially since many people have only met her once and spoken to her a few words.
Whether it is the giant blue bear with huge size and wisdom, or the crown princess with home field advantage, there is no way to cover up the unique charm of the other man.
The aura emanating from him is variable and depends on the attitude of the people who see him and their attitude toward him.
"He is the conqueror? How is it possible? Why is he so young? Why is he so handsome? According to legend, doesn't he have a beard, a face full of flesh, and arms thicker than thighs?"
"The legend is just a legend. It is not credible at all. He was born into a Tethyr noble and has the blood of Silver Elf. How could he look like a barbarian? You were simply misled by the image of those rough men. This is what happened. I imagine a conqueror who not only possesses great strength, but also possesses otherworldly wisdom, who can easily manipulate the enemy in the palm of his hand. Oh, no, I am going to fall. I will never marry him unless I am in this life."
"Excuse me, before you daydream, look in the mirror and see if you have the qualifications. Do you have peerless looks? Or do you have a distinguished status? Neither of them. How can you match others? People can see them in the eye. One look at you?"
"Don't you think that this conqueror is a perfect match for our Princess? Whether it is appearance or prominent life experience, if he can become the husband of Our Princess, everything he owns will become part of our Kingdom of Cormyr. .”
"Although he has achieved some results, he is still a little short of being able to match our Princess, right? I heard that he is here for Yandi this time. If he can lead an army of conquerors, he will wipe out Yandi from the inside out. Fan, if you become Baron of Rockland, you will really have this qualification."
"This matter is something that Your Majesty and the nobles should worry about. You don't need to worry about it."
"Such a strong murderous intention. How many people has he killed? To have such a strong murderous intention?"
"Is this kind of power that he should have at his age?"
"He is worthy of being a conqueror. It is not a fluke that he can create his current glory."
Those women and girls saw a young, handsome, and strong young general who smiled at them like a gentleman, the lover of their dreams.
Those men felt that they saw a sword, a sword hidden in the scabbard. If they just looked at it, the other party would not say anything. If it was a tit-for-tat confrontation, the other party would immediately become sharp and suppress it directly.
King Asan fully demonstrated the majesty of a great nation. Not only did he allow Gavin's inhuman general escort to enter the city, he even allowed two intelligent bears, Big Bear and Big Bear, to enter Susar City and the Purple Dragon Palace together.
They also have this strength and confidence. The city of Susa is not only surrounded by a powerful mythical barrier, but also has separate magic restrictions and devices in many places. The Purple Dragon Patrol Team is even more numerous, frequently patrolling the streets. Some of the patrols were increased due to his own arrival, and most of them were there to maintain public order in Susar.
The most attractive and shocking thing are the two huge statues guarding the entrance to the royal court.
These two statues are not carved from stone, but are glowing with golden light. Even those who have never seen this substance can still call out its name - fine gold.
These are two super-large fine gold statues that are nearly ten meters tall. They are dressed as warriors in sealed armor, holding huge two-handed fine gold swords in their hands.
The first time he saw them, Gavin was 100% sure that they were not just decorations, but two golems, two legendary adamantine golems, whose properties were similar to the war in Gavin's hands. Like the Reavers, they are all made of adamantine alloy, and are given the properties of adamantine using spells similar to adamantine.
This is a legendary golem that only level 30 legendary archmages are qualified to forge. The casting cost of each statue is no less than one million (this is only the cost of casting materials). Matching their high cost, they have With terrifying life dice and strength, they possess magic immunity, and their defense capabilities are comparable to those of divine incarnations—ordinary swords cannot break through a fine gold metal plate several centimeters thick.
This is a terrifying existence that can fight hand-to-hand with the ancient giant dragon on the ground. It only needs to activate one of them, and it can kill its own astonishing general's escort in three minutes, not to mention that there are two of them standing here.
This is just out in the open, who knows if there is more to the other party in the dark.
This is the heritage of a thousand-year-old country. No wonder the citizens of Susar were just curious and amazed when they saw their general guards, but they did not show much nervousness or fear.
Looking up to these two adamantine demon statues every day has already developed their courage. These Susar citizens know very well that they alone cannot cause too much damage in Susar, especially with King Asan. When sitting at the same time as the Palace Archmage, it was a more powerful being that could kill even the adamantine golem.
"General, please come with me. Someone will arrange a suitable residence for them later. Father is already waiting for us in the Royal Chamber." Princess Crown stopped in front of the Purple Dragon Palace.
"Your Highness, please lead the way." There is no need to wait for a long time, which is exactly what Gavin wants. He originally thought he would stay in Susar for a few days. After a long diplomatic process, he had the opportunity to meet King Asan. .
It seems that just like the legend says, King Asan is also the kind of person who does not stick to trivial matters.
"General, please follow me." Crown Princess led Gavin through the huge palace complex with ease.
This place can be called a model of human and magic construction. You can see the power of people and the magic of magic everywhere. The two are perfectly integrated.
Like most palaces, the Purple Dragon Palace was originally built on a hill that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. The original building was located on the top of the hill.
However, the subsequent development of the Purple Dragon Palace far exceeded the original designer's imagination. After thousands of years of continuous expansion, renovation, and remodeling, not only every corner of this hill was filled with palace buildings, but even The hills themselves have been hollowed out.
Even so, there was still no way to meet the demand, so they came up with the idea of the sky. This time they did not use human construction methods, but adopted the same approach as the elves.
Ancient trees of astonishing height and thickness are dotted in the huge building, and the trees are connected to form tree houses suspended in the air.
The underground, the surface and the air are perfectly integrated together without any sense of inconsistency. No wonder everyone who has been to the Purple Dragon Palace is full of praise and is conquered by the unique beauty here, and now Gavin is among them. As a member, there is indeed a lot to learn from.
The three-dimensional structure also makes the Purple Dragon Palace look like a maze. People who have a slightly poor sense of direction will get confused in a short time when they get here.
Even Gavin, who has an amazing memory, can only ensure that he can return the same way and does not dare to wander around here.
The Royal Chamber is located at the top of the Purple Dragon Palace. It is solemn and grand. Even a group of giants can hold a meeting here.
Under the leadership of Crown Princess Tynarasta, Gavin entered the highest palace of power in the Kingdom of Cormyr.
Even though Gavin was determined, he was also full of emotions. He had been planning this matter for nearly a year. He had killed several dragons, offended several evil gods, and even became a God's chosen people.
Now I am only qualified to step into this palace. If I want to get a seat here, I still need to fight with the princes above to have a battle of wits and courage.
The princes and nobles of Cormyr who looked at Gavin were filled with emotion. When they saw the conqueror who stepped into the palace gate for the first time, they seemed to see themselves many years ago. They just thought about how they wanted to step into this palace. , how many years has it been used? How much effort was expended?
And the young man in front of them, at the age of less than 20 years old, in less than a year, accomplished what they spent more than ten years or even most of their lives. It is absolutely false to say that they are not jealous. , and felt a strong threat from it.
The other party is not a lonely Xingjin, but a powerful man with several cities of his own and a powerful army. As long as he is given a little time, he is likely to step on them and climb to the top of this country bit by bit. The pinnacle of human affairs.
