The imperial palace was under tight guard, and valiant knights could be seen everywhere, along with the beautiful palaces that served women. Emperor Johann and Linley walked side by side, with Wharton slightly behind them. Behind these three men were a number of palace maids and maids. All the soldiers they had encountered on the journey bowed respectfully after seeing Emperor Johann.
"That's Mr. Linley. "Many of the soldiers, seeing Linley walking by the side of Emperor Johann, began to mutter softly among themselves.
Their eyes were filled with reverence and adoration towards Linley. They were all young, and many of them were no older than Linley. Many young men in the Empire had set Linley as their goal that they would strive for.
“O'Brien's empire bears his name as the most militarily powerful of the six major powers. All these warriors in the imperial palace were extremely powerful. "On the way, Linley noticed that none of the warriors here were weaker than the sixth rank.
Most of the sixth, and many of the seventh. Even some rank eight warriors could be seen.
Even ordinary patrol guards were extremely strong. One could imagine how powerful the Empire as a whole was.
"Linley, look. The guards' eyes lit up when they saw you. I fear that in their hearts, the respect they feel for you is greater than for Us. "Emperor Johann said with a loud laugh.
Linley laughed calmly.
Ever since the duel at the Colosseum, Linley's fame had spread throughout the O'Brien Empire, especially considering his young age. He has become a legend.
Linley was in his twenties, and was not only a genius sculptor, but also a genius magus and a Saint-level warrior. In the hearts of many people, although they might not be as competitive as Linley, as long as they worked hard, they might be able to achieve at least 10% of Linley's achievements, and they would be happy with that.
This had actually caused many young people in the Empire to train with more difficulty.
The O'Brien Empire had an old custom that whenever a genius appeared, the Empire would officially spread the news alongside the rumors of ordinary people. The impact on the citizens of the Empire was actually quite large.
…
Imperial flower garden. There was a banquet table filled with food, and the only people sitting there were the Emperors Johann, Linley, and Wharton.
The palace that served the maids carried plate after plate of food forward, while the guards around them watched with amazement around them.
“You can all go now. "Emperor Johann waved his hand.
"Yes, Your Majesty. ”
The servants, servants, and guards around all dispersed. Soon after, only Emperor Johann, Linley, and Wharton were present.
Emperor Johann glanced at Wharton. In fact, on the entire journey of the Martial Palace, his heart was filled with questions.
Why would the God of War want to help Wharton?
In the Empire, the God of War was undoubtedly the supreme power. Wharton was nothing compared to him. The God of War and Wharton most likely did not have much of a relationship.
"Could it be that our esteemed ancestor, the God of War, has some sort of connection to the Dragonblood Warrior clan ancestor? It shouldn't be so. Five thousand years ago, when the Empire was founded, the Dragonblood Warrior, Baruch, was very famous, right, but they were nothing more than Saint level fighters. There was still a huge gap between them and the War God. What kind of relationship might the two have? ”
Emperor Johann did not believe it.
A War God was someone at the level of a High Priest. How many relationships could he possibly have with Baruch? Even if he had one, could it be a relationship deep enough that he would help the Baruch descendant, five thousand years later?
"Whartons. "Emperor Johann didn't think about it anymore. Smiling, she said, “A few moments later, you and Nina will get engaged. You have to take good care of Nina. This kid has the temperament of a spoiled princess. We hope you can accommodate him. ”
Wharton straightened his chest, hurriedly saying, "Your Majesty, don't worry. ”
But Linley looked at Emperor Johann.
"A few days ago, Caylan said that Emperor Johann would choose Blumer, but now .." Linley was confused about this.
Linley asked directly, "Your Majesty, I want to ask, why did you choose my sister Wharton?"
Emperor Johann was a bit surprised.
"Haha .." Emperor Johann laughed loudly. "Linley, haven't we already discussed this in the palace? We considered things from Nina's point of view. After all, Nina liked Wharton. We are so grateful that We can bring Nina happiness. ”
Linley sneered silently.
If Emperor Johann really considered things from Nina's point of view, then when Wharton asked for his hand to marry, he would not delay and cause a huge chain of events to occur before accepting it.
Emperor Johann saw this look on Linley's face. "What's? You don't believe me, Linley? "
"I don't really believe it. "Said Linley bluntly.
Emperor Johann began. In general, who would dare to speak to him in such a manner? But the one who said these words was Linley, a peak-level Saint expert. Emperor Johann let out two awkward laughs. “Actually, We acknowledge that We initially considered Blumer. ”
It's more like that.
Although it was Linley's first encounter with Caylan, he felt that Caylan was a trustworthy person.
"Linley, you should know that in reality, it was Saint-level experts who determined the rise and fall of the Empire. "Emperor Johann sighed. "Saint-level experts can easily kill enemy leaders despite being surrounded by a million soldiers. Saint-level Magi can use forbidden spells that damage and destroy a million human soldiers completely. It could be said that in the eyes of a layman, Saint-levels were truly invincible experts. ”
Linley nodded. When he was young, Saint-levels were indeed excellent fighters that existed.
“Although We are Emperors, We dare not issue orders to Saint-level. If we offend them, they might leave the Empire. We believe there are many places that will welcome the arrival of Saint level experts. "Emperor Johann laughed bitterly.
Linley understood this.
If a Saint-level expert were to escape, given their flying ability, it would be extremely simple.
“Both Blumer and Wharton are likely to reach Saint-level in the future. But the critical issue is War God College's .. Blumer. All of the Empire's experts were clustered at War God College. We don't want to anger the War God School. After all, there was an entire group of Saint-level experts there, not just one or two! ”
The entire Saint-level expert group. Just hearing those words was enough to make people shiver.
“With a few fellow apprentices Blumer coming to speak on his behalf, We have no choice. "Emperor Johann shook his head and sighed.
He wondered about this all the time. What reason?
Emperor Johann turned a puzzled look towards Linley and Wharton. "Linley's. Does your Baruch clan have some sort of historical connection to the God of War? "
"God of War?"
Linley immediately understood. Shocked, he said, "Your Majesty the Emperor, are you saying that it was the God of War that caused you to choose Wharton?"
"Of course . "Emperor Johann said," Linley, think about it. In the Empire, who said who was heavier than the members of War God College? Only the God of War, the supreme power in the land. ”
“Our esteemed ancestor, the God of War, directly spoke to Us mentally and ordered Us to choose Wharton. ”There was a bit of excitement in the eyes of Emperor Johann. “This is the first time We've heard the voice of our esteemed ancestor, the God of War. ”
War God!
It was actually a God of War!
The God of War is an extraordinary figure. Five thousand years ago, he had fought against the High Priest above the Yulan river, and proved that he was truly a God-level warrior.
After five thousand years, although no one had ever seen the God War fight again, everyone understood that given the natural talent of the War God, he was undoubtedly even stronger than now.
The War Gods had trained very quickly, switching from ordinary people to the level of Gods in just a few centuries.
His sudden appearance of becoming famous five thousand years ago had caused his fame and glory to completely surpass even the Four Supreme Warriors, becoming the most brilliant shining star of the era.
"War god help my brother?" Linley could not understand it.
"Could he know my team has six Saint-level experts?" Linley began to wonder. Given the strength of the War God, he could definitely feel the strength of this Linley army.
Linley shook his head.
Not likely. To Gods, Saint-level experts were nothing. Most likely, the War God could kill them all with a single blow.
“Then what is the reason? Could it be that it was really because he had some ties to the Baruch clan ancestor? "Linley really did not understand what the reason behind the action of War God was.
… .
West of the imperial capital. The Mountain of the Gods of War. Aside from the primary peak, there were four other peaks. Connecting the two peaks is a natural cave tunnel.
Lanke and Castro walked side by side in the tunnel.
After traveling several hundred meters through the winding tunnel, the tunnel suddenly turned sharply downward. If one gazed down into that deep and strange dark hole, not a single thing could be seen. No one knows how deep the tunnel is.
"Whoosh's. ”
Lanke and Castro jumped straight into the deep hole. They fell at a fairly slow speed. After falling several thousand meters, the two landed as soft as a leaf on the ground. From the entrance of the tunnel to this hole was only a thousand meters, but this hole carried them several thousand meters underground.
“Teacher usually spends his time in closed-door training, and whenever he does, he will usually spend several years, decades, or even longer training. When he is involved in training, he will almost never speak to us mentally. But this time, at Martial Palace, he actually reached out to us mentally and told us to tell Johann to pick Wharton, then told us to come back here. "Lanke's confused.
This was very contrary to the customs of the War God.
There were some things in this world that an ascetic like the War God would issue an order to.
“Junior internship-brother, don't think too much about it. Master must have had a reason to act like this. All we need to do is listen and obey. "Say Castro.
“Yes, senior intern sister. "Lanke nodded.
For the disciples of War God College, the orders of the War God should not be violated. They would do whatever the God of War ordered them to do. No need to think about it.
"Rumble ..." Scorching heat could be felt in the depths of the tunnel. As they walked, the stones slowly reddened as well.
The temperature here is so high!
After walking another few hundred meters, Lanke and Castro stopped in front of a pitch-black stone door. The stone walls that surrounded this door were already reddish, and the temperature was so high that even Lanke and Castro had to use their battle-qi on their feet to protect themselves.
If a piece of paper is thrown, it will most likely be burned immediately.
"You have come. "A quiet voice floated out from behind the door.
The voice of the War God was very gentle, but it carried a penetrating power. The voice was like a needle, piercing straight into one's soul. Castro and Lanke, his two students, even suspected.
This was one of the reasons why Castro and the other personal disciples of the God of War were so afraid of their Master. The God of War is too powerful.
"Yes sir . "Castro and Lanke said respectfully. Castro continued, "Sir, what instructions have you given us?"
The voice of War God sounded again. “12 April will be the day of the engagement ceremony for the boy, Wharton. Talk to your oldest intern and get an interspatial ring. On the day of Wharton's child's engagement ceremony, give it to her as her engagement gift. ”
Castro and Lanke were completely stunned.
The God of War gave the betrothal gift?
This has never happened before. Even when they, his personal disciples, had married, the God of War paid no heed. After all, was the God of War someone who had to send congratulatory gifts to others? Even if he wanted to do so, who was worthy of his reward?
But the God of War now orders them to give a congratulatory gift for Wharton's engagement ceremony?
“You can go now. ”The quiet voice of the God of War once again sounded in the tunnel.
Castro and Lanke stared at the pitch-black stone door, then glanced at each other. Although they did not understand it at all, they did not dare to defy the orders of the War God.
"Yes sir . ”Lanke and Castro replied, their voices filled with incomparable respect.
