Chapter 10: The Beginning of the Storm (3)

The girl's cabin stood alone in the woods, and there was still no one inside.

Ella tidied up the messy room bit by bit. She was not very good at doing this kind of thing, and the room still looked a bit messy after tidying up. But it was more or less orderly than before.

There were some pots of flowers that looked alive, and Ella watered them. If the girl came back one day and saw the blooming flowers, she would be in a good mood.

After doing this, Ella sat on her seat and looked through the girl's notes.

The table used by the girl was a torn cargo box with messy colors and severe signs of acid corrosion. The chair was a random stone brought from outside. It was not only hard but also scratchy.

.

This is where the girl records her daily work content.

"God left two stone tablets, one with the Pentateuch engraved on it, and the other with the Jade Record."

Unexpectedly, the girl wrote such a sentence at the beginning of the note. This surprised Ella. She could not see that the girl was also a believer in the Abrahamic Church, and if so, the girl should have a little magic.

That's right.

However, considering that there are sects similar to the Ancient Abrahamic Church in the world, this is reasonable.

In her notes, the girl added some theological meaning to the transmutation of metal.

"God is an alchemist from the beginning to the end. After death, the soul and spirit are separated from the human body, and the body corrupts in the tomb. Until the end of the world is destroyed by fire, the soul and spirit washed away from sin are restored by God.

Infuse, thereby creating a glorious, immortal, and perfect individual."

"The process of the alchemist using fire to separate the sulfur, mercury, and salt in the metal is a representation of God's work. Poison and toxins are the original sin of matter. The alchemist uses his skills to dissolve, corrupt, distill, sublime, and then regenerate them.

Combine it. It rises from the dead and returns to a healthy and pure state."

"So, the work of the alchemist is to imitate the power of God and improve the natural world. Alchemy is the redemption of the natural world. In this way, maybe I can complete the great work and touch the ultimate mystery of creation."

This series of descriptions reminded Ella of Gottfried, who regarded calculus as the path to God.

She remembered the girl saying that alchemy consists of two completely different parts: skill and magic.

"When their skills come to an end, alchemists who feel powerless will naturally turn to magic."

Who was that girl? Why did she call herself Paracelsus? What did she mean by "the great work"? What did Avicenna want to find in her room? Did she herself already have it?

Have you entered the realm of magic?

The mystery surrounding the girl becomes even heavier.

However, Ella has no time to solve these mysteries. She is about to return to Gotland.

Amy knocked on the door three times outside, then walked in holding a bouquet of sunflowers.

"Your Majesty, I didn't see Her Royal Highness Anna. People from the Island Republic blocked me from the door."

"That's for sure. Since the Island Republic is ready to go to war with the Seven Hills Empire, Anna must be close to house arrest now. Fortunately, they don't know about my relationship with the Seven Hills Empire, otherwise our actions will be hindered."

"But - when I was leaving, an arrow hit me, and the arrow carried a letter written by Her Royal Highness Anna."

"Letter? What's written on it?"

"Your Highness, it seems that she didn't know that she was under house arrest. She first thanked His Majesty, then said that she would not disclose His Majesty's whereabouts to the Qiqiu Empire, and finally promised to continue to search for the whereabouts of the female doctor after His Majesty left."

Ella stood up and harvested the sunflower from Amy's hand.

"Let's go, there is one more thing to do before returning."

There was a small mound standing not far outside the cabin, with a withered sunflower stuck on it. Ella took out a new sunflower and replaced it, and put the remaining sunflower next to the cabin. Then, she walked away

He bowed towards the small mound and cabin from a distance.

After doing this, they came to the port and boarded the return ship.

The waves floated, seagulls soared, and the coast of the island republic gradually moved away from them.

"Your Majesty, have you ever thought that we can actually participate in the island republic's plan?"

Amy brought this up with some reluctance.

"When we go back this time, we don't know when we can come to the Qiqiu Empire again. When will Your Majesty plan to take back the throne?"

Ella shook her head.

"Amy, although the governor said that he is also a member of the Qiqiu Empire, how could the people of the Qiu Qiu Empire think about destroying the Qi Qiu Empire? Although the Island Republic is still a vassal state of the Qi Qiu Empire, in my eyes, he has become the same as the Qi Qiu Empire.

There is no difference between foreigners."

"Even if you are a foreigner, if you can borrow power..."

"Absolutely not."

Ella firmly rejected Amy's suggestion.

"My uncle and I are fighting for the throne. It's just an internal fight in the Qiqiu Empire. But foreigners want to destroy the Qiqiu Empire, and my uncle wants to protect the Qiu Empire. Can I still choose to help the former? I won't interfere with the governor.

The plan is already my biggest concession."

"Compared to the rebels who stole His Majesty's throne, is the invasion of foreigners more unbearable...?"

Amy pondered, thoughtfully.

"Yes." Ella replied, "Because I am Baselisa of the Seven Hills Empire."

The island republic got further and further away, and finally disappeared from the horizon.

"Your Majesty, what do you think will be the outcome of this war between the Seven Hills Empire and the Island Republic?"

"I don't know which allies the island republic has found, and how long the Republic of Liguria can hold on. If Giovanni's plan is to use the peace talks to delay enough time, the Seven Hills Empire will be caught off guard. Seventh Marine

The Qiu Empire is not as good as the Island Republic. The Island Republic should be able to block the coastline of the Qiu Empire. But the Island Republic cannot get close to the Black Sea Strait. On that narrow terrain, the lethality of ocean fire is very high.

All in all... this will be a difficult war of attrition. Even if the Seven Hills Empire wins, the losses will be huge."

As he talked, Ella's face gradually showed a painful expression.

"Amy, I suddenly want to turn the ship around and rush into the island republic to hang their governor!"

At this moment, more than a dozen ships were heading towards Ella and the others. Amy pointed at the ships and shouted, "Your Majesty! That's our ship! Those separated soldiers are finally back!"

"Hmm... More than 8,000 people were separated at the beginning. So many days have passed. Looking at the number of ships, only less than 2,000 people have returned. Where did the other 6,000 people go to rob? That's all.

Let them return to the team first, and I will give them a good scolding!"

However, when those ships approached Ella's fleet, the pirates on board shouted at Ella angrily:

"King of Sweden! Turn around quickly! The fleet of the Seven Hills Empire is coming towards us!"
