The man in black robe claimed to be an envoy from Tianfang Empire. He walked to Alfred's boat carrying a large box. When he saw Alfred, he put down the box, knelt down from a distance, and then spoke with an extremely loud voice.
The voice said: "King of England, I have been waiting for you here for more than a month."
Alfred was quite surprised that the Tianfang Emperor's envoy appeared here, and couldn't help but ask: "The Tianfang Empire and England are far apart. For hundreds of years, there has been no entanglement, no cooperation, and even no trade flow. Today,
Why did you send an envoy here? What's the big deal?"
The messenger raised his hands high and said, "The King of Kings has sent me here to congratulate the King of Britain on the birth."
"King of Britain?" Alfred was stunned for a moment. Not to mention that Britain has not yet been unified by him, even if it is really unified, it is impossible for the distant Tianfang Empire to receive the news so quickly, not to mention that this envoy came a month ago.
.
"Is this the news you received after arriving in England? But even so, this congratulatory message is a bit premature." Alfred replied with a smile, "I am only the king of England now. It is better to avoid these polite words."
The envoy stood up, shook his robe, and then looked directly into Alfred's eyes. His sharp gaze made Alfred feel a little unhappy, and he couldn't help but press him: "The Tianfang Empire sent you to
What's going on here?"
"The King of Kings hopes to reach a friendly agreement with Britain, and at the same time hopes that the King of Britain will lend him two things."
"Two things? What?"
The messenger stretched out his left hand to the side, shook it vigorously, and said: "The first thing is the water of Britain."
Then, he also stretched out his right hand and grasped it upwards, and continued: "The second thing is the soil of Britain."
The meaning of asking for water and soil is to ask England to surrender to the Tianfang Empire. Alfred's face suddenly became a little ugly: "Then what if I don't give it?"
"The King of kings repays evil with kindness. Before setting off, he told me that if the king of Britain is stingy with water and soil, he will have something to give to the king of Britain."
The messenger slowly opened the big box he brought, and six skulls were revealed inside.
"These six skulls are only a small part of the collection of the King of Kings. The King of Kings has always been against the Tianfang Empire.
Let me present these to the King of Britain. I hope the King who forgets Britain will think twice before doing so."
Alfred's expression turned extremely ugly: "Britain and the Tianfang Empire are extremely far apart, separated by the Seven Hills Empire and the Alemannic Federation. How could the Tianfang Empire be interested in the water and soil of Britain?"
"Your Majesty, the King of Britain. The King of Kings sent me westward this time, not just for Britain. The Count of Île-de-France of the Alemannic Federation has entrusted me with the water and soil to bring back!"
Alfred took a long breath.
"If the King of Kings wants the water and soil of Britain, let him come and get it himself with his army! But since he gave me such a generous gift, I have a word to give him in return."
The messenger's eyes flashed fiercely: "King of Britain, please think twice before you act."
"Why are you so nervous? I'm just giving him a piece of useful advice - a powerful empire is always easy to disintegrate from within. There are many major sects in the Tianfang Empire, and they are incompatible with each other. Although the country is vast, it is just a strong external force. The Tianfang Empire itself
To have such a stubborn disease without knowing it, and to anger the dragon in the east, seems to me to be extremely dangerous. If the King of Kings is lucky enough to escape this disaster, I hope he will make rectifying his internal affairs a top priority."
"I have taken note of the words of the King of Britain."
The messenger took a few steps back, knelt down, bowed again, and then walked back to his ship.
"It's just that these words are conveyed by me, so the meaning may change. I also hope that the King of Britain will remember them in his mind and meet the King of Kings with me in person!"
Seeing that the envoy had returned to his ship, Alfred thought that the negotiation was over and could not help but lower his guard. Unexpectedly, the envoy's words suddenly changed. Before Alfred could react, the cross hanging around the envoy's neck suddenly suddenly
It flew out and pointed directly at Alfred's throat!
Soon after, Mellie let out a roar from the side and pushed Alfred directly into the water. The cross hit the cabin behind Alfred and suddenly emitted a dazzling light. Under the light
, the flagship worth eight thousand cattle, and all the people and things on the flagship, were blown away by the wind like dust.
Mei Li's body floated up from the light, gnashing her teeth and staring at the messenger in black.
"It's surprising that there are such powerful magicians in Britain."
The messenger in black said this, but there was no trace of surprise in his tone. He raised his hand slightly, and more than a dozen identical crosses flew out of his robe and floated in the air.
Mellie's body was trembling slightly. It seemed like a strong wind was blowing the book of time, turning the pages of the heavy book back to a thousand years ago.
The page of the book is set at the very beginning of everything. On that day, white rain was falling in the skies of all the countries in the world.
"eli, eli, lama sabachthani (God, why did you abandon me)."
The lamentation uttered by the Son of God before his death caused everything to freeze into ice.
Black, foul-smelling filth flowed out from the wounds caused by the spear of Longinus, and other wounds on the body turned into iron-like rust.
At that moment, all the curses in the world were gathered on the man in front of him who claimed to be the Son of God. With all the sins in the world, he fell into a black eternal sleep.
The plains turned into barren deserts, and the waves of the desert sea engulfed the earth. The whole world was trembling because of the departure of the Son of God, and I don't know whether it was excited, sad, or afraid.
Not only the Son of God died on this day, Longinus, who killed him, was also dying because of the black blood.
And Meili - she is an ancient dragon who has made a life-and-death contract with Longinus, and will be wiped out with the death of Longinus. This impending demise makes the almost immortal Meili feel
Unprecedented fear.
However, when he was dying, Longinus used the cursed black blood of the Son of God to quietly change the seal of contract printed on the back of Mellie's hand.
"Continue to live." He said to Mellie, who was delighted to find out that the contract had been modified. "As long as you find a new owner within a year, you can continue to live."
The Son of God failed, and the world will restart from this day and return to its original appearance - how it should be.
However, fate played a cruel joke on Longinus and Mellie. Soon, rumors began to appear in the Tianfang Empire: The Son of God had been resurrected on the third day after his death and sat on the right side of the Almighty God.
No one dared to question the authenticity of this rumor, because after his death, his four disciples, the magicians who would later be called "apostles", suddenly gained unparalleled power.
From then to today, for nearly a thousand years, Meili has been hunted by the apostles.
