In addition to the affairs of the two direct crown princes, various forces in the royal capital are also turbulent. Among them are the blood relatives of the Broken Star Dynasty who are also eyeing the throne. Coupled with the scourge of the time and space rift, the original situation is in decline.
The Star Kingdom seems to be on the verge of breaking out into great turmoil.
Under such circumstances, the current capital of Star City is a powder keg that may explode at any time. Intervening in it does not seem to be a good choice. It is impossible for Lothar not to know this, so why does he want Link to go to the capital now?
?Is it malicious?
Don't be kidding, Lothar is now a fanatical believer of Link. Saying that he wants to harm Link is even less reliable than saying that he is actually a woman. Then, the situation should be as stated in the letter, Lothar saw it
Treating Sylvanas would bring huge benefits to the Father God Church, so they persuaded Link to treat the princess.
Thinking of this, Link called the senior management to discuss the matter together. Some people agreed with Lothar's proposal, while others opposed it. Those who opposed it were mainly worried about Link's safety. After all,
He almost had an accident every time he went to Bath City. Yao knew whether there would be another problem this time when he went to Shining City.
However, after thinking about it for a while, Link finally decided to go because he knew very well that theocracy was never a political power. In the future development, the Father God Church would not be able to break away from the secular power. Even the first church on earth had died.
Bishops have also grown in cooperation with government agencies in various countries. Religion without secularity is no longer a religion. After all, as a religion, it is impossible to manage and lead the people like an official. Religion only needs faith and believers.
Governance is still a matter of state.
As the calamity of the rift continues, the major religions will inevitably move together, but they will definitely not become rulers. At most, they will only support some puppets to help them, and more often they will cooperate with some ambitious and powerful people.
, these are the rules of the game in the religious world.
Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible for the Church of the Father to transcend the rules of the game. Originally, Link was planning to treat Count Lothar as a partner, and Count Lothar must have known this. Everyone knew this tacitly. Who could
Knowing that Count Lothar is here to send such a letter to Link, he must have no evil thoughts towards Link, so there is only one possibility - Count Lothar wants to tell him that working with Sylvanas is better than working with him.
This side of the lord cooperation is better!
If you think about it carefully, if Sylvanas' talent and wisdom are as rumored, then she will definitely not fail to see that religious unrest is the general trend. In this case, supporting a religion for one's own use or competing with a different
Religious cooperation that would threaten his rule became a must.
The above was Link's conjecture, and it was also the most intelligent conjecture in the teaching, so he finally decided to go to the royal capital, Star City.
Now that the decision had been made, Link no longer hesitated and immediately ordered his men to prepare for the trip and set off tomorrow morning.
This trip was unpredictable. After thinking about it, Link returned to the room and took out the Lady Luck Wheel he got last time, ready to try to see if this high-end prop could bring surprises to him during this trip.
The Lady Luck Roulette is said to be a roulette wheel, but in fact it does not display any names, nor does it have a pointer. According to the instructions, it seems that the name of the woman next to the user will be displayed only after spinning, and the luck value will be temporarily increased.
After injecting the holy power, the Goddess of Luck wheel began to spin. When it stopped, two names appeared on it, and these two names surprised him.
Lingmeng and Lin Xi!
"It's the two of them, can they really bring me good luck?" Link couldn't help but feel doubtful. Lin Xi said that although Lingmeng was not weak in strength, his character was flawed and he stayed at home as an ancient mascot.
It can adjust your mood, but when you take it out, it smells like death.
However, now that the Lady Luck Roulette has taken effect, Link doesn't want to waste it. He immediately goes to Lin Xi and Lingmeng and asks the two women to go to the capital with him. Lin Xi naturally has no objection to this and can help Link. She
It was too late to be happy, so how could she refuse, and Lingmeng complained for a while as expected. For her, it was better to stay at home drinking tea and being in a daze than to go on a trip. Of course, in the end she agreed to the travel request, on the condition that she would give her money afterwards.
She has a thousand solas.
By the way, Reimu seems to have saved more than two thousand sora, which is one step closer to her goal of one hundred thousand sora - or so she said.
Link doesn't plan to bring a lot of people with him on this trip, just pack lightly. Apart from him, Ling Meng and Lin Xi, only Altaïr will go with him. As for the spiritual pets, he will bring Ghost and Phantom with him. Once they meet
If it's dangerous, just let Ghost lead them to retreat, while Altaïr and Phantom can investigate the situation for him.
Although the input is a little less, the overall combat effectiveness is not weak at all. Even if they encounter the Hongyao Dragon again, they can easily escape and even kill the Hongyao Dragon. Even if they encounter a seventh-level powerful enemy, they can defeat it with all their strength.
And retreat - I heard that Lin Xi still has a sacred artifact handed down from the Yaoling Sect with him. Although he doesn't know what it is, the three cardinals said that once the effect of that artifact is seen, Lin Xi's strength can be doubled.
Even if you encounter a seventh-level strong man, you can still fight.
Early the next morning, the group of four took Bai Ling to the city of Bath. After getting the token that Count Lothar had prepared, they boarded the ship at the port of Bath City and headed for the royal capital.
Bath City is built next to the Star River, the largest Grand Canal in the Kingdom of Stars. This long river runs through the entire Kingdom of Stars and is one of the most important transportation thoroughfares in the Kingdom of Stars. There are countless transport ships coming and going, and it is also an important commercial tax in the Kingdom of Stars.
Source: Going to the royal capital, Xingyao City, through this river is much faster than taking the land route. It only takes three days, while it takes more than ten days to get there by land.
Originally, Link and the others could take Bai Ling directly to the Royal Capital, but Count Lothar said in his letter that there are many masters in the Royal Capital, and it is best for them to go there in a low-key manner. He has already arranged for a reception at the landing port, and will be with them when the time comes.
Those who meet up can go directly to the palace.
Link didn't want to be too ostentatious. The current Bai Ling was different from the past. Although he had become more powerful, his huge size and conspicuous appearance also made him easily exposed in Bai Yao. If he flew low, he would inevitably be noticed by the masters along the way.
They can't stand it when it's high. The high-altitude effect is not something you can withstand only if you are strong. At an altitude of tens of thousands of meters, the thin oxygen and the rapid airflow are enough to stun them. When flying on the Bailing on a normal day,
Their flying altitude generally does not exceed five thousand meters.
Therefore, when Link and others boarded a boat, Bai Ling could fly directly at an altitude of 10,000 meters and enter the royal capital quietly without being noticed by bystanders. When they were completely unaware of the situation in the royal capital, this would not be the best for them.
better.
The ships used by the Kingdom of Stars are all quite old wooden boats, which are only suitable for traveling on rivers. If they enter the sea, they will be sunk. However, there is no sea in the Kingdom of Stars, so this type of ship is enough. There is no need to insist on speed. In the forest,
It seems that the speed of the turtle is the same as that of a tortoise, but it is already among the best among transportation means.
The ship that Count Lothar arranged for Link and the others is called the Protoss. It is one of the most luxurious ships among all the passenger ships in the Kingdom of Stars. It is one of the few 'automatic' ships that uses magic stones as the source of power. Its materials are except wood.
, and also added a small amount of metal and stone, it can carry up to more than 800 people at the same time, with a total length of more than 50 meters, a width of 15 meters, and a total of four floors. The load capacity is considerable, and it is called the Big Mac on the long river of stars.
Traveling in a low-key manner, it was naturally impossible for Link and the others to charter a boat. Under Count Lothar's arrangement, they took the boat with other passengers. There were more than 30 sailors and crew members on the boat, and there were more than 300 passengers.
, although it can carry more than 800 entries at most, but that is a last resort. Most of the time, it will only carry about 300 entries.
Naturally, such a ship cannot only have rooms for everyone to squeeze together. There are no shortage of luxury boxes. The price is quite considerable, and even if you have money, you may not be able to buy them. But under Count Lothar's arrangement, they can easily
It was easy to get two top-level private rooms, just enough for the four of them, one for two men and one for women.
After putting away the luggage, Siru stayed in the room and was dazed. It didn't look like someone traveling far away. There was no way. Altaïr, as a top assassin, had never encountered any situation like this on a boat.
I have already tried traveling. Before Link traveled through time, he lived in a seaside city and had many opportunities to take a boat. Lin Xi was a year-round traveler. As for Reimu, it was even easier. She was too lazy to move and stayed there.
It's more fun to stay in a daze in the room than to go out and enjoy the scenery.
In this case, the four of them would just stay in the room and chat, but the problem is that Altaïr is a silent gourd, and he treats Link differently, while Reimu has a cold and lonely nature, and both of them are
It belongs to the type that can't hold back a sentence for a long time, but in the end it becomes Link and Lin Xi chatting there, and the other two become the audience and light bulbs.
At the end of the chat, Link and Lin Xi were also affected by Erru, and they lost interest in chatting, causing everyone to fall into silence.
Faced with this situation, Link felt that it was necessary to get some simple entertainment equipment. Yaoyao was busy before and didn't think so. It would be uncomfortable not to find something to kill time when he was bored. However, now that he is in
There were no production tools in other places, so even if Link had countless ideas, he couldn't put them to use, so after thinking for a while, he simply ran outside and started walking around.
Originally, Lin Xi and others wanted to go together, but Link refused. He just wanted to go for a walk because he was bored. Let these people go together and relieve their boredom, especially Altaïr.
Used as a refrigerator.
So, in the end, Link was the only one who appeared on the deck. At this time, there were many tourists wandering on the deck. Link looked at it and found that except for the crew, everyone else was tourists. The huge deck was enough for dozens of people to enter.
You won't feel crowded if you stand together on it.
Link was wearing an ordinary cloth at this time. He looked no different from ordinary people. Naturally, he would not attract the attention of others. He strolled easily and soon arrived at the bow of the ship. However, when he reached the bow of the ship,
