Chapter 418 The Arrogant Royal Family
New Lisbon Island Hub · Strange Objects and Phenomena Research Association/School.
“I’m sorry, I’m really sorry. Due to the negligence of Tell Nanan Ogg and the unreasonableness of the guards, it brought a very bad experience to the two of them. The Research Society and the Silver Hand Royal Family I have repented after reprimanding the prince and locking him in the royal confinement room. Here, I once again express my sincere apology to the representatives of the Kingdom of Heaven.”
As the chief of the New Lis Island Hub Palace Wizard Association. Wizard, it’s been a long time since Midhill looked down on someone’s face and apologized like this.
Originally, according to the formal diplomatic handover, those who received the representatives of the Kingdom of Heaven yesterday should have been representatives from the Odd Objects and Visions Research Society and the Palace Wizards Association. These two organizations are the official organizations of [New Lisbon Island Hub] As for the thaumaturgy agency, the former represents the thaumaturgy of the multi-ethnic democratic faction on the island, while the latter represents the thaumaturgy of the Silver Hand royal family.
[New Lisbon Island Hub] Although it implements the policy of monarchy and relative isolation, the multi-ethnic immigration structure on the island will inevitably lead to the emergence of corresponding organizations that resist the monarchy.
Since entering the new century, the contradiction between the Palace Wizards Association and the Odd Objects and Phenomena Research Society has become increasingly obvious.
Constitutional monarchy and the corresponding liberal ideological trends are constantly impacting the hub's monarchy. The Silver Hand royal family is very disgusted with this ideological trend. Through the restriction of public opinion on the island and long-term royal education, this ideological trend has also been affected by the island. The residents within the city were disgusted, and with the continuous expansion of Edici [Financial Street], until it swept across the entire Terra and even all the hubs within Terra, the Silver Hand Royal Family was forced to open up the market and accept the global materialized finance. wave.
For the royal family, New Lisbon Island has a system adapted to New Lisbon Island. It does not require too much guidance and outside interference, and it is guided by the [Avalon System] and has lived and worked in peace and contentment on the island for several generations. , just as the king who died in the monster attack once asked sarcastically to those factions that claimed to be democratic:
"I have ruled for three hundred years, and in the name of dictatorship, I only See prosperity instead of decline.
Every inch of land and every heart on the island has witnessed the glorious mark of prosperity.
Our hearts are as clear as a mirror. In this vast territory, there is no smoke of war, no ghosts of famine crying, no death of plague wandering around. The only ones are ships trading with the outside world. Flowing in the waves, gold and silver treasures are constantly piling up, accumulating like mountains in the depths of the treasure house.
You, subjects, revel in the feast of trade, dance with joy in your hearts, and swim in this vast sea of trade. You are willing to pretend, willing to pretend to be tolerant in the face of wealth, and very willing to show My tolerant and open mind is closely connected to every corner of the world, and I am willing to blend with all nations on the world stage and deceive myself. Isn't this a glorious testimony of my rule?
You, my subjects, in the shining light of wealth, can't you see the greatness and extraordinaryness of my rule?
And isn’t all this a testimony of the glory that history has given me? Isn't this the immortal mark of our dynasty? ”
Centralizing power to fight against evil spirits and demons is the ruling philosophy of the King of the Silver Hand Royal Family.
Under the long-term rule of the Silver Hand Royal Family, the hub has been stable and the people are relatively wealthy, and class circulation is visible. No one will have any objections to the Silver Hand Royal Family and the Palace Wizards Association. Even if they do, in [Avalon ], it will not exist.
However, things will not always go smoothly, and the goddess of fate will not always favor a nation.
Over the centuries, New Lisbon has been blessed by good fortune, and on the day when the beast attacked the city, bad luck decided to make up for its long absence, ensuring that this paradise would never be seen again. Be blessed every bit.
An unprecedented civil war broke out in Iberia. The king died in the disaster caused by the giant beast. A big hole was cut in the barrier, and the hub had to ask for help from the Kingdom of Heaven.
Even in such a situation, the people of the Silver Hand Royal Family still had their own little thoughts, and they tried to establish contact with the Heavenly Kingdom delegation aside from the Research Society of Strange Objects and Visions.
The royal family wanted both face and dignity, so they leaked the information about the mouth of the lighthouse before they had reached the same opinion with the Iberian side and the Oddities Research Society. go out.
And they soon paid the price for their arbitrary actions, when Midhill hurried to the Eye of the Silver Hand Royal Family yesterday.
He only saw bloodstains on the ground and countless broken limbs. The horrifying scenes of bloody killings around him constantly impacted his sanity.
He could only hold back his nausea and nausea and break into the instrument room of [Electronic Channel].
Immediately afterwards, he saw the prince, who was crying and full of fear, being pinched by a two-meter-tall angel who was holding a chain sword and entering the [flesh and blood liberation] state.
In the scene at that time, he could only speak quickly. Before the prince was hacked to death, he said "Save someone under the sword" and successfully saved the prince before the situation escalated further.
And now, Midhill will continue to wipe the butt of the royal family for its stupidity.
"Boss, we have conducted technical research with the Unified Thaumaturgy Research Center, the Odd Objects and Phenomenon Research Association, and the Iberian Academy of Sciences, and have determined that the explosion hazard of the [electronic channel] is real on a time scale. It cannot cause great harm to the current human beings and Terra," Midhill said with a smile to the two heavenly angels following him.
“We don’t believe your research.” Mantz, the Grand Master of the Gray Knights on the side, said without giving any face.
Yesterday, it was this angel who single-handedly slaughtered a fifty-man steam force, and at the same time frightened Prince Silverhand out of his wits, leaving a scene of terror that would never be forgotten in the opponent's mind.
The reason Prince Silver Hand is still alive is simply because he considered the interests of the Kingdom of Heaven. From the beginning, he only acted with the intention of intimidating the royal family, and his purpose was just to tell the royal family not to Playing tricks and tricks in front of the Kingdom of Heaven.
“We have seen many leaders in history. His knowledge structure, cultural level, political judgment and value choices will stay at a certain stage in his adolescence. Then no matter how long he lives, No matter how many changes occur in the world, he will always appear as a zombie at a certain moment. If there is a chance for him to ascend to a great position, he will definitely look for resources and construct him from the moment when his intelligence and knowledge development stopped.
This type of person is generally stubborn, paranoid in character, and foolishly self-confident, thinking that he defends a certain value and can open up a new path for national development. Direction.
In fact, they often wear ancient costumes but perform on modern stages, like ghosts in tombs suddenly appearing in broad daylight. Everyone knows that they are ghosts, but they think they are true gods. . However, the ideas he chose and the policies he implemented are all moldy old stuff." The Gray Knight Grand Master said sarcastically in a cold tone.
"The stupidity of your royal family cannot win our trust."
"It doesn't matter if you two don't believe it. I can take you to the Fairy Library, where all the research logs are stored. You can hand them over to Eden for review. ." Even though Midhill was extremely embarrassed when facing the Gray Knight's rebuttal, he could only continue to say with a smile.
"We will." Manz said expressionlessly.
While the court wizard was chatting with the Gray Knight, the number one swordsman in the Kingdom of Heaven, holding an ancient book and a black umbrella, was looking up at the place in front of him where the Odd Objects and Phenomena Research Institute was. A familiar architectural style is detected here.
In the thick morning fog, the majestic figure of the Strange Objects and Phenomenon Research Society slowly appeared. This large magic academy is like a Gothic castle, standing in a mysterious sea of trees. Its towering spiers, sharp arches and complex flying buttresses painted a mysterious and intimidating picture in the hazy morning light.
Looking closer, you can see that almost every window is carefully carved with exquisite patterns, as if every line contains unfathomable magical power.
On the towering spire, flying buttresses connect it to the main building. Each structure seems independent, but also seems to be closely connected through some mysterious power. Geometric stone carvings, mysterious symbols and ancient The inscriptions are intertwined, and the towering arches lead you to one mysterious space after another.
The long corridors, huge libraries and countless research rooms seem to lead to another world.
"Who designed this academy?" Saint Valentine asked the old wizard beside him.
The old wizard was stunned for a moment, a moment of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and finally he answered honestly:
"Diego Flores, he immigrated here at the end of the last century. He was originally a gunnery division in Iberia [Hall of Hunting], but later he left [Hall of Hunting] and immigrated to New Lisbon Island Hub due to some issues. In the same year that he immigrated, he joined the Strange Objects and Phenomena Research Association. , when the Research Institute allocated a large financial budget to renovate the Research Institute in the style of Terra's first-class academic palace, he successfully defeated all bidders and became the architectural director of the Research Institute, and he defeated all The reason for the bidder is only one sentence..."
"He studied abroad in the Kingdom of Heaven." Saint Valentine took over Midhill's words.
"...Yes, he once went to the Kingdom of Heaven to study for a period of time with a certain big shot in the Kingdom of Heaven." Midhill answered somewhat arbitrarily.
"That big shot must be Judith. I remember that he once led a group of people to the Kingdom of Heaven for academic talks." Mantz spoke and joined the conversation.
"...Yes." The old wizard smiled and lowered his head and replied. This was not something he deliberately brought up about the rebel in heaven. It was you who brought it up yourself.
“Where is he now?” Saint Valentine continued.
“You want to see him?” Midhill said with some surprise.
The Grand Master of the Gray Knights on the side also silently glanced at the number one sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven. He wondered in his heart whether the other party had obtained some other unknown information through [Flowers in the Mirror].
“Well, I want to see him.”
St. Valentine nodded, and then he added:
"Just tell me his location, and I will go find him myself. As for studying the log, just ask Manz to follow you. Just go.”
“Ah this...”
Let the number one sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven walk around freely, this is really...
"Do you have any objection?" The first sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven asked in a calm tone.
It was obviously a question, but his tone seemed to be stating something.
"No, no, I was just wondering if it would be a bit disrespectful for you to walk around the country alone." Midhill shook his head wildly and replied.
Midhill understands that for the number one sword holder in the Kingdom of Heaven, he can really move around freely in the hub, and any tracking and vigilance are completely unnecessary for him.
"That's good." The number one sword holder in Heaven nodded with satisfaction.
Midhill immediately told Saint Valentine about the possible location of Diego Flores. After receiving the news, the other party simply told the Grand Master of the Gray Knights After talking for a few words, he left here on his own, leaving behind the taciturn and embarrassed old wizard.
*************
Saint Valentine is walking alone in the Institute of Strange Objects and Visions at the moment. Although the style here is imitated the style of the two houses of heaven, he But the inside is that of the Central Alliance.
For example, the stairs, the stairs here are imitated in the style of Fog City [moving stairs], these stairs are decorated with exquisite wood carvings and stone carvings, showing an ancient and mysterious atmosphere, and they will change themselves at different times location and orientation.
The Magic Academy in the Fog City likes to install this kind of [moving stairs] the most. It is mysterious and unpredictable, interesting and adventurous. This is the thing that the aristocratic thaumaturges in the Fog City like to install most, and they use the stairs. Bullying the 'Muggles' who just come in every year is also what those aristocrats like to do most.
Saint Valentine is not interested in exploring the [Mobile Staircase] at the moment. He uses the magic of Heaven's [God Walk] to teleport step by step to Diego Flor provided by Midhill. Where Reis might stay.
He was very curious about Flores. To be more precise, he was very curious about Flores' disciples.
Pedro Miguelset, or, the opponent's early name, Pedro Iberia.
This is a taboo name. When the first swordsman in the Kingdom tried to explore everything the prince knew through [Flower in the Mirror, Moon in the Water], a powerful anti-Mimu lock blocked his exploration.
The anti-Mimi lock locked the knowledge of the electronic channel and the relevant knowledge of the Avalon system.
When he forcefully tears the anti-Mimu lock inside the prince, the other party will let out a scream of soul.
You know nothing...
This is the sound of mourning.
