In the center of the northern end of the gloomy and dark hall stands a majestic goddess statue. The goddess is covered in linen robes and holds a fir stick. The other hand hangs naturally, and a giant spider crawls at her feet. This is the goddess of the dead moon.
The image of Cress. Legend has it that Cress is one of the many incarnations of Martha in the world, so the undead often think that they believe in Martha.
The atmosphere in the temple was a bit solemn. Under the high arches, many acolytes in black robes were prostrate. Low-pitched chanters were praising Cress's scriptures. The chanting voices gathered together far and near.
echoed in the hall.
Brando looked at this scene solemnly.
The sound of empty footsteps came from behind him. Andrea followed him not far behind, only a few steps behind. She looked at the hall and asked irrelevant questions:
"Why did Queen Madara suddenly summon us?"
Brando shook his head silently. How could he know? Maybe it was a whim, maybe it was because the negotiations between Delphine and the former had made substantial progress, maybe the envoy sent to Eruin received a reply, or maybe
Some other reason.
Among them, Delphine's negotiations had come to an end a week ago. A thick pile of agreements and secret treaties were signed in all aspects. The provisions were generally in favor of Eruin, including the unconditional end of the invasion and return of the undead.
In the Buqi area, the prime minister's daughter did a pretty good job, which can be said to be perfect. He knew that some of his decisions might cause resentment among some people in Eruin, and even hurt the interests of others, but it was not a big deal.
, this provision can shut anyone up.
Unless those people think they have the ability to get Butchi back.
This is just an agreement on the surface. In private, Brando's request is very simple. During the Black Rose War, including the undead lords who participated in the massacre of Eruin civilians before the Black Rose War, they must be punished. About this point
, he had no intention of giving in from the beginning. If repaying Butchi was Eruin's bottom line, then this was his bottom line, but to his surprise, he and the Prime Minister Qianjin originally thought that the negotiations on this item would fall into
During the hard bargaining. Even they were prepared to face a stalemate, but Her Majesty the Queen of Madala showed amazing cruelty. She abandoned almost everyone on the list, leaving only a few original Brando
It was used to bargain with Delphine, and the crime was originally relatively minor. In other words, the crime was that of the undead lord who was spread through false rumors.
Even loyal confidants like the Black Plague Lord were abandoned by her without mercy. Such decisive cruelty surprised both Brando and Delphine. The performance of Queen Madala
Somewhat unusually, she seemed to be too accommodating and submissive to this negotiation. So for a long time after that, he and Delphine thought that Her Majesty the Queen had some conspiracy. However, after being careful for half a month, Eruin
News came that the Second Black Rose War was over, and the undead had withdrawn from Eruin as promised.
Under such circumstances, he was summoned by Her Majesty the Queen.
In the past few months, a lot of things have actually happened. The undead have fought against crystal clusters several times in the south of the Sea of Dead Moon, but not every time they are as lucky as the Battle of Fenhototh. Bromando
Although the Black Rose has stabilized its position in Fenhotos, overall, in the entire south, the undead are still steadily failing and retreating. Fortunately, Madara has a vast territory. Even if large tracts of territory in the south are lost, it will be difficult for the empire to
It doesn't hurt to say that, not to mention that most of those vast lands were not originally under the rule of the mercury staff.
Then the group of them returned to the Land of Eternal Death together with Her Majesty the Queen of Madara. Generally speaking, the central area of the Death Moon Empire was relatively stable and had not been severely affected by the drastic changes in the empire. On the one hand, this was because
Only very little news has been spread, but on the other hand, it is also because the so-called drastic changes are actually just that for Madara. This is, after all, the year 376 of the First Era. It is not sixty years later, nor is it the Second Era.
In the middle of the Era, the territory ruled by the Mercury Staff in this era actually only included the Land of Eternal Death and the central area of the Sea of the Dead Moon, plus some of the 'prosperous' areas bordering Eruin. Her Majesty the Queen claims that the north and
Isn't it normal that the undead sequence in the east and the lichs of Balakirevo are enemies of the empire? The undead living here thought it was just a war horn sounded by the empire to the east and north.
From this point of view, Brando has seen Her Majesty the Queen's clever skills. Of course, Delphine, who clearly saw this on the battlefield and proposed this condition, was naturally classified by him in his eyes.
A woman of the same kind as Her Majesty the Queen is not to be trifled with.
This category of people also includes the Queen of the Wind, Silver Queen Constance, his mother, Antitina, Medissa, and Little Roman, and a series of other existences that give him headaches. By the way, Metissa
Shah was added recently.
But the surface stability is only for the lower class. For those upper-class undead nobles who are closely related to this change, they are not unaware of the inside story. Under the surface calm of the Land of Eternal Death, there are turbulent undercurrents brewing secretly.
Those undead lords who have been abandoned by Her Majesty the Queen, and those dark nobles who are unwilling to give up the interests they have obtained, will naturally not give up. In just a month or two, Her Majesty the Queen of Madara has already established relationships with the representatives of these vested interests.
The forces have fought against each other many times.
But every time, it ended with Her Majesty the Queen's calm victory. Within two months, the corpses of four high-ranking undead lords had been thrown on the central square of the Seat of Eternal Death, and another
She fled to the undead sequence. She was not alone from beginning to end. Instaron and Tagus and the families behind them always stood firmly by Her Majesty's side. After Delphine's analysis and
Guided by the guidance, Brando quickly found a clear clue and discovered that Her Majesty the Queen was using the power of the emerging nobles to suppress the old undead lords. These people had been abandoned by her one by one in history and were crushed by the advancing wheel of history.
It was shattered, and now, she has only accelerated the process.
After understanding this, he was a little speechless. The army of undead he had cut off on the battlefield that day had now provided Her Majesty the Queen with room to play. If she hadn't taken the initiative to hand over the mercury staff to him that day.
The answer to this mystery has not yet been revealed. Brando almost thought that he had fallen into the opponent's calculations from beginning to end, so that he later spent several days rereading the "Black Rose War Memo" which was several centimeters thick.
, one by one, he made sure that there were no loopholes or traps in the above terms. Although Delphine was a little scornful of his behavior, the prime minister's daughter still patiently helped him complete this task.
Then there are the Earth Legion.
Just look at the oil bottle lady behind him, and you will understand that the Earth Legion has never gone far since the Battle of Fenhotos. In fact, they may have nowhere to go. The elemental barrier has collapsed, and those outside the territory
The defense line has become fragmented, and it is no more than a dream to expect to resist the dusk invasion outside Warnd. Since Andrea mentioned earlier that the wild elves of Farnzan and Ellanta have joined the battle, it means that they have already made a plan.
Move to Warnd territory to continue fighting.
In fact, both the Silver Elves and the War Goddess Guards remained, and only the army of the Nameless Ones was missing. According to the chattering girls, these ancient heroic spirits were the last descendants of the Earth Legion, and they were the first generation.
Odin, the most precious asset left to Warnd by the Azure Knight, signed a contract with the ancient kings, allowing their heroic spirits to stay in Warnd forever to protect their home and hometown.
Legend has it that after the heroes of the gold and silver races died, their souls would return to the Temple of Heroes in Valhalla and continue to fight for the gods. However, after the Temple of Valor was lost with the Kingdom of God, these heroic souls became the nameless ones.
A part of them, they abandoned everything, names, identities, past memories, leaving only the will to fight and protect.
The Seven-pole Dragon King Fusia stayed to teach Medissa and Hipamira how to become real planeswalkers. Although the latter two were just planeswalkers, this evil dragon king from the era when the Miner people ruled the earth said that
There is no difference. They still have a lot to learn, but their time is limited.
It told Brando that it planned to take Medisha and Hipamira to a place called the Holy Pool of Radiance, the Holy Land of the Matatanians, and the Arena of Planeswalkers. Although it had been abandoned for a long time, the Void
There are still many laws of the day left in it. If Medissa and Hipamira want to mature quickly and become true planeswalkers, it may be the best place.
Brando had some doubts about this, because Tumen had not mentioned this place to him that day, and Foscia's arrogant personality naturally did not bother to explain to him, leaving only one sentence: Just leave this matter to him.
He left it to himself to worry.
It does not need to consult Medissa and Hipamira, because in its view, the planeswalkers do not need to consult the planeswalkers creatures, as long as Brando gives permission, that is enough.
Brando has reservations about this, but he is still very curious about this planeswalker dragon from ancient times. First of all, as far as he knows, planeswalkers are all gods, so does Fusia count as one?
What about a Divine People? If it counts, then it would be interesting. It means that the Divine People may not be a representative name for a certain race, but an existence that represents a class of power and authority.
