Looking at the squirming white silkworms on the table, Ma Wei bit his finger, squeezed out a few drops of blood and dripped it on the body of the white silkworms.
The blood adhered to the silkworm's white body like morning dew, and gradually sank. The silkworm's body, which had absorbed the blood, changed from white to blood red. It trembled, its soft abdomen began to swell, and suddenly a red stick came out of its mouth. Silk shoots towards the wooden statue in the center of the altar.
The most powerful thing about the Hall of Gods is that it does not require the user's own magic power. The oracle silkworms will convert blood into power, connect with the wooden statues, and use the oracles to form a cross-space communication network. Even if It can be used without any magic power of its own - as long as you know how.
The red silk thread wrapped around the wooden statue in circles until it was wrapped into something that looked like a ball of wool. Then, the oracle silkworm spit out another silk thread from its mouth and began to wrap it around the five-pointed star. The human bones at the tip of the array, the faint red light flickered on the silk, and the five-pointed star array lit up.
Above the originally empty altar, a dull gray mist emerged out of thin air, quickly covering the entire conference hall. After a brief silence, several black figures appeared in the hazy mist, some standing, seemingly He was talking to the people next to him, and some were sitting at the table, as if deep in thought.
"Here, everyone, please take a seat. The meeting can begin."
The black figure sitting on the far right spoke, and his voice sounded very unfamiliar, unhurried and full of majesty. Just sitting there gave people a very depressing feeling.
Hearing the invitation from the black shadow, other people who entered the Hall of Gods sat down one after another. Although Ma Wei could not see the chairs under them, he could clearly feel their movements from their postures.
After everyone sat down, the black figure on the far right waved his arm gently, and the gray fog above his head began to surge, and a clear picture appeared above everyone's head.
The dark figure sitting opposite Ma Wei, the picture above his head is a large and luxurious palace, a man with an upright but haggard face is sitting on a soft chair, stroking his upper lip and beard, his half-lit eyes are shooting straight Come on, Marvey recognizes him. It should be said that everyone in the Kingdom of Windsor does not know this man. His face is engraved on gold pounds, shillings and pennies...
The current king of the Kingdom of Windsor - Lord IV!
Their eyes collided. Ma Wei and Rhodes IV met their gazes. Their lips moved involuntarily. Both of them had complicated expressions.
The last time they met was at the investiture ceremony, King Rhodes IV personally awarded the Royal Medal of Honor to Royal Navy Lieutenant Marvie Enders, but four years later...
The young lieutenant who had "high hopes" from Rhodes IV was already on an equal footing with him.
Four years, not a long time, not a short time, allowed two men with completely different identities to meet again. This time... Ma Wei was not a sergeant, and Rhodes IV was no longer a sergeant. The other side's king.
"What a twist of fate..." Rhodes IV laughed at himself: "The hero of the kingdom betrayed the kingdom."
"I don't want to be the hero of the kingdom." Ma Wei said: "Perhaps the title of hero of the people is more suitable for me, Your Majesty."
"Arrogant." Rhodes IV slowly shook his head: "The people of the Romanov Kingdom are human beings, so aren't the people of the Windsor Kingdom human beings? You may have become a hero of the Romanov Kingdom, but at the same time, you have also become You are a traitor who betrayed the people of the Kingdom of Windsor! You abandoned them! How dare you call yourself a hero!"
"It's not them I abandon, but you, your Majesty."
"For the sake of power, it cannot be regarded as abandonment." Rhodes IV said calmly: "I understand you, Marvey Enders. From the first time we met, I knew that you were an ambitious man. Leaving doesn’t surprise me. If it were me, I would make the same choice as you.”
Ma Wei smiled and did not refute. He had already realized that Rhodes IV's ideas were completely different from his own. We were not from the same place, and naturally we did not have much in common. It would be useless to talk more.

Several black figures nearby cast their eyes with interest, enjoying the 'farce' while sipping the wine, with an inexplicable smile on their lips, and they were eating melon happily.
It would be great if there could be a fight. A one-on-one fight between the king and the pope would be a rare sight in a thousand years...
"You two, if you want to catch up on old times, I will set aside time later."
The majestic man sitting on the far right wearing a boat-shaped military cap said in a deep voice: "Now, we should start a meeting to discuss the sovereignty issues of Kiev, Warsaw and Helsinki."
"Our request is very simple." King Karl IX of the United Kingdom of Ruiwei, who was sitting next to Rhodes IV and wearing a golden crown, said angrily: "The Kingdom of Romanov has completed the succession of the throne, Yin Wannovi Duke Qi and Duke Tbilisi were subordinates of the former King Paul I. Since the newly crowned Katerina seized the throne through armed rebellion, it is natural for Duke Ivanovich and others to resist. Kiev, Warsaw, and Helsin are basically their territory, and it is reasonable to become independent from the Romanov Kingdom.”
"Karl..." Katerina narrowed her eyes, a dangerous light flashed in her blue eyes: "You seem to have forgotten everything I said."
"Do you want to declare war on the United Kingdom of Ruiwei? Okay! Come on!" Karl IX had obviously been angry for a long time, and he responded unceremoniously: "If you want to eat our United Kingdom of Ruiwei, I'm afraid you won't. Such good teeth!"
"Ahem..." Rhodes IV suddenly coughed lightly, "Karl, you're out of your mind."
Karl IX looked stern, sat back with his butt raised slightly, and stopped speaking.
"What does the Kingdom of Windsor think about the sovereignty of the three regions?" Napoleon on the far right asked: "We would like to hear your opinion, His Majesty Rhodes IV."
Rhodes IV glanced at Napoleon and said calmly, "The Kingdom of Windsor will respond through the results of the meeting."
Napoleon raised the corners of his mouth, as if he was mocking disdain, then returned to his original state in the blink of an eye, looking at William V opposite him expressionlessly, and asked with his eyes.
"Frederick's Kingdom will also make a reply based on the results of the meeting." William V held his cigar in his mouth, exhaled a thick puff of smoke, looked at Marvey, and grinned: "Pope Marvey, what do you think?"
"Pertinent." Ma Wei nodded and said meaningfully: "Everything is fine."
William V nodded with satisfaction.
The two major powers kicked the ball around on the sovereignty issues of the three regions, throwing the issues back and forth. The atmosphere fell into silence for a while. The kings and popes present were all human beings. No one wanted to be the first to offend the Romanov Kingdom. Ruiwei United The kingdom is an accident. They have always had historical disputes with the Romanov Kingdom. It is normal to stand up and oppose it, not to mention...
Behind the United Kingdom of Ruiwe is the Kingdom of Windsor.
The attitude of Karl IX indirectly represented the Kingdom of Windsor, but Rhodes IV did not respond directly and left himself a way out.
Frederick's Kingdom's idea is simpler. The development policy formulated by Prime Minister Otto von Bismarck is to unite the Romanov Kingdom. Regardless of whether Daniel is studying in the Church of Truth or not, William V will not have a quarrel with the Romanov Kingdom. The Judgment Cult behind the royal family....
I don’t want to stand out either.
Everyone understands that when clams and cranes fight, the fisherman benefits.
The current Romanov Kingdom is like a desperate lion, biting whoever dances the most happily.
Seeing that the negotiations had reached a deadlock, Napoleon felt a little unhappy. Before the meeting, the replies given by these kings to him were surprisingly uniform. They were full of support and approval, but when it came time to vote... they all shrunk. Head turtle!
"Your Majesty Caesar, what about you?" Napoleon could only place his hope on Gaius Caesar, hoping that he could show the courage to conquer all countries.
"What?"
Caesar, who had been nodding in thought, raised his head. His hair had turned a lot whiter overnight, and his brows were always furrowed, a little absent-minded.
"Didn't you hear what everyone just discussed?" Napoleon was stunned for a moment.
"No." Caesar stood up and said: "The Roman Republic withdraws from this discussion."
Card!
The black shadow representing Caesar disappeared, the scene came to an abrupt end, the thick gray fog dissipated, and Caesar suddenly cut off the magic circle, catching everyone off guard.
He...seems like something is bothering him.
As soon as Caesar left, the king of the Kingdom of Kalos also suspended the Council of the Gods and withdrew from the meeting.
What happened to the Roman Republic?
The answer to this question is actually clear to Ma Wei and others. Internal conflicts have arisen. How can they still care about the distant areas of Kiev, Warsaw and Helsinki?
Caesar is too difficult....
"Emperor Bonaparte, you and the King of Barbarossa are the only ones left who have not expressed their opinions." Rhodes IV suddenly said.
The Barbarossa Empire was also under the control of the Wisdom Cult and had an unbreakable alliance with the Bonaparte Empire. Napoleon's opinions were their opinions.
Before Napoleon could speak, Pope Francis II of the Wisdom Church took the lead and said: "We support the independence of Kiev, Warsaw, and Helsinki, and believe that Duke Ivanovich, Duke Thebesli and others are qualified to found the country. capabilities, which is a good reflection of the future international situation."
Napoleon's eyes darkened, and he did not refute Pope Francis II face to face, but his expression became even more grim.
Rhodes IV, William V, and Karl IX remained silent, looking at Mavey and Katerina, waiting for their replies.
Mawei looked at Katerina and let out a chuckle as she nodded slightly.
The laughter was full of sarcasm and contempt, as if it was mocking stupid behavior. Hearing this laughter, Rhodes IV and others frowned, and for a moment they were not sure what Ma Wei meant.
"Everyone, before I give my answer, I...have a few words to say."
