The crowd standing in the palace gathered into a group, including soldiers, attendants, generals, nobles, priests and other people with various statuses. They crowded the originally empty palace to the full.
At this moment, everyone raised their heads and stared at Henir, who was holding the scepter of Xinsai on the side of the throne.
In those sights, there was shock, admiration, hatred, and ambition.
Only Standito didn't do this. He just looked at the sarcophagus absently.
He doesn't care who becomes the king, nor does he care who becomes the pinnacle of power.
"Her Majesty the Queen is dead?"
It was difficult for him to accept that Her Majesty the Queen died like this, and he even had the kind of collapse that King Jessel had in the legend when he saw the statue of the god shattered.
In his eyes, the queen was so noble and powerful. In his opinion, the power of the giant beast in the sky was almost the power of the gods in his imagination. It traveled in the sea of clouds and the sky. No existence in the world of Xiinsai could defeat it.
He still remembers the scene when he, a craftsman and a commoner, stepped here. The queen was standing in front of the window, with the rays of the sun shining on her.
That picture.
How sacred and beautiful.
She asked her name kindly, and her smile helped the disgraced craftsman's son regain his courage.
For the first time, he experienced what it means to be a king.
Standito pushed forward with all his strength. He finally walked up to the throne and asked Henir.
"Prince of the Volcano, how did Her Majesty the Queen die?"
Henir on the side of the throne lowered his head and said in a sad and heavy tone: "The queen died due to the loss of control of the giant monster in the sky. Although the reason why the giant monster lost control is still unknown, it must be related to the Kingdom of Seler and the Kingdom of Samo.
related."
"This scene was witnessed by all the members of the Kingdom Army."
After saying that, Henir sighed: "It's a pity that I was attacking the Siren City at the time and didn't have time to save Her Majesty the Queen."
"but."
"The passing of the queen does not mean the end of everything."
"I, Henir, must make those who hurt Her Majesty the Queen pay the price, and I will inherit her last wish."
Henir's shout won cheers from the soldiers and generals present.
Later.
The nobles and priests looked around and began to applaud sparsely.
Standito got the answer, and he believed it, as if this was the only way to make the noble and powerful Star Luo Queen fall.
He once witnessed with his own eyes the fight between the giant sky beast and the earth-burrowing demonic insect in the city where the gods descended, and the city was destroyed and the palace collapsed.
I have also seen scenes of giant monsters from the Samo Kingdom breaking into the city, people running for their lives in panic, and thousands of people trampling on each other.
Now, he once again experienced the death and terror brought by the troll.
He couldn't help but murmured: "Ruch, gifted by the gods!"
"Why, you always bring destruction."
Henir announced that he had taken over the City of Servants of the Gods, and announced the decree after the takeover to everyone. In order to prevent possible wars in the Samo Kingdom, he made military mobilization and personnel arrangements.
This series of arrangements also allowed Henir to begin to control the City of Servants of God and the Temple of the Sky.
The crowd dispersed, and Archduke Henir, who was in the eye of the storm, left Standito behind.
Henir nodded to Standito: "Lucky son, we meet again."
Standito looked sad: "Yes! I just didn't expect it would be like this when we meet again."
"I still remember what you once said to me, only those who go upstream can control their own destiny and the world."
The lucky son raised his head and looked at Henir, showing a reluctant smile.
"congratulations."
"Grand Duke Henir."
Henir stared closely into Standito's eyes and suddenly asked: "Lucky son."
"Do you think I will become the king?"
Standito was stunned for a moment: "This is not something I can know."
Henir was ready to take the throne, but no one of his origin had ever been king since ancient times.
He hoped that a descendant of the great saint Tito, who was recognized as a lucky son, would present him with a gift to prove the validity of his ascension to the throne and that he was blessed by the gods.
"If I become a king, will you bless me?"
"If that day comes, I hope you can hold the chapter of Saint Tito for me and stand by my left hand."
"I am even willing to hand over the Sky Temple to you."
Standito was even more stunned: "I am just an ordinary person, not a priest."
Henir is obviously not a person who follows the rules, he is a person who is used to breaking the rules.
"So what?"
“Does serving the gods rely on strength?”
"No, it is devotion to the gods."
Henir looked at him seriously: "A descendant of a saint, the most pious and lucky son."
"Isn't it appropriate for people like you to control the Sky Temple and serve the great God Insai?"
Standito: "If that day comes, I will consider it."
Standito didn't agree on the spot, but he didn't refuse either.
This is also in line with his usual character, low-key and weak.
He is just an ordinary person who goes with the flow.
A few days later.
An uninvited guest suddenly came to the Saint's family's mansion. He climbed over the wall and entered the mansion late at night.
Standito got up late at night and met at home with the former chief priest of the Temple of Insai, the city where gods descended, and one of his few friends in the Star Luo Kingdom.
The priest seemed to be in a hurry, panting constantly.
The first words he spoke made Standito's face change drastically.
"There is something wrong with Her Majesty's death."
Standito stood up immediately: "What's going on? What's the problem?"
The priest stepped forward and said, "Before Her Majesty the Queen died in battle, Henir gave an order to his subordinates to wait for an opportunity."
"Henir knew about Her Majesty the Queen's death in advance and was well prepared."
The priest knocked on the table with great anger, his eyes filled with blood red: "This is all a conspiracy. Henir must be related to the death of Her Majesty the Queen."
Standito: "How did you know?"
The priest then replied: "I have never believed what Henir said. In order to investigate the real cause of Her Majesty's death, I controlled this person."
"I read this information from his memory."
After saying that, the priest took out something.
This is a cup of the newborn sun, only the size of a palm, with an illusion symbol imprinted on the petite golden flower cup.
Standito didn't extend his hand, but asked: "What is this?"
The priest handed the thing to him and asked Standito to accept it.
"This is the cup of the sun that has been enchanted with magic. I have made several of them."
"The information and pictures I read are all in it. If you encounter any danger, it can also help you."
Standito hesitated for a moment and accepted the Cup of the Sun.
He asked the priest: "Why give it to me?"
Priest: "Henir has set his sights on me. If anything happens to me, these secrets may never be discovered."
"Stan!"
"Although you don't have wisdom or power, I believe you have potential and strength beyond ordinary people."
"You are a descendant of Saint Tito, the chosen lucky son."
"From the first time I met you, I felt that you must be carrying a huge mission, just like your ancestors."
The priest looked at Standito with sincere eyes, as if he wanted to convey his deepest thoughts to him.
Standito didn't speak for a long time.
He lowered his head and did not meet the priest's eyes.
"You think too highly of me, I'm just an ordinary person."
The priest laughed: "The beginning of a legend is ordinary and ordinary."
He left Standito's mansion and set foot on the main road of the City of Servants of God under the moonlight.
He suddenly saw the other side, shadows elongating and sliding across in the moonlight.
The priest immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly ran away.
As they turned the corner, the sounds of fighting and fighting could be heard.
It didn't take long for the situation to subside. Several priests from the Volcano Principality walked out, and a group of soldiers behind them hurriedly left carrying something.
