Fantasy Lords: Starting with the Pioneer Knight Chapter 140

Chapter 140 Gods, Empires, Kingdoms

 In the room.

 Count Engel's mood fluctuated slightly.

 After a while, his fluctuating heart gradually calmed down.

 “You may be right!”

 “The situation may not be that bad, but what if?”

“The destruction caused by the divine revelation will be unimaginable, and countless lives in the entire Northland Province will probably be ruined.”

"Thor, you are the eagle of our Dressrosa family, and you will also be the future of the Dressrosa family. I don't want anything to happen to you. Even if it means paying some price, I think it is worth it."

Count Engel took a deep breath, looked at Thor, and spoke seriously.

Listening to Count Engel's words, Thor subconsciously opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.

 “Alright, I'll prepare it for you.”

 “Do you believe me?”

 “I will withdraw Ren and the others as soon as possible!”

 Going to the territory, he must go there.

 What he cared about was the determination in Thor's words.

Especially because Thor has shown such talent, he is likely to be another sky knight in the future.

It was also after getting along with him for this period of time that Count Engel gave him enough trust that he dared to speak like this.

　　Listening to his son's words, Count Engel couldn't help but frown.

“The Northland Province is my opportunity, I hope my father will not stop it.”

Thor nodded, and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief at this moment. Engel's words were obviously relaxed, so he quickly added something.

"Thor, do you know that there are not a few people on this continent who are favored by the goddess of life, but not everyone who is favored can have smooth sailing."

But Count Engel can actually sense something.

Thor thought for a moment, then spoke again.

If there is a real danger, the daily intelligence system will inform you several months in advance. Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible for him to accept it if he is asked to abandon his territory directly.

It wasn't Thor's words that surprised him.

Thor spoke seriously and looked at his father.

 “You should stay at home for the time being these days!”

 “Thor, you!”

As long as they can safely break through to the Sky Knight, the entire family will truly have a chance to rise. Even if there is only one possibility, Count Engel no longer wants his son to take risks.

At this moment, except for his own golden finger, he didn't say anything else, but the rest was already obvious.

“Father, you should have guessed that I am favored by the goddess of life. I can sense the coming of crises as well as the coming of opportunities.”

“Father, the flowers in the greenhouse can never withstand wind and rain.”

As long as he continues, becoming a viscount is an inevitable result, and he even has the possibility of attacking the earl.

Especially now that everything in the territory is moving in a good direction.

Indeed, what Thor said is right.

 His target is not just the Sky Knights.

There was silence for a moment, and when his son's eyes were still on him, Count Engel's voice sounded again.

Engel looked at Thor's silence and couldn't help but speak in a deep voice.

"But as I said, the flowers in the greenhouse cannot withstand the wind and rain. My goal is not just to be a knight in the sky. I want to see a higher level and a higher sky."

 “Father.”

"I see."

“Accidents can happen at any time, and perceiving danger does not mean avoiding danger.”

 But a higher level.

 Staying in the family, maybe with the help of the contract, he has the possibility to become a Sky Knight.

 It can go up even further.

 At this moment, he made up his mind.

These things, even Thor did not say.

Count Engel's frown deepened.

 But this involves “divine revelation” after all, and no amount of caution is too much.

 At this moment he had made up his mind.

And looked at his father's determined expression.

 Listening to his son's words, he looked at his serious expression.

 “Hoo!”

 “As long as you understand.”

“The eagle has spread its wings, and it's hard for me to make a decision for you now. I hope you won't regret it.”

Looking deeply at Thor, Count Engel finally did not insist, but nodded in agreement.

 “Thank you, father.”

At this moment, Thor breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, go and prepare. I hope it's as you said."

“Remember, if it's not right, don't insist, leave immediately. Only by living can you have a broader future and be able to see the higher sky.”

Count Engel waved his hand and spoke again.

Thor nodded, and then slowly retreated.

Watching Thor leave, Count Engel couldn't help but sigh.

 He doesn't know whether his decision is right or wrong.

 Reason told him that he should force Thor to stay.

With Thor's talent, there is almost a 70-80% chance of joining the Sky Knights in the future.

 With a Sky Knight, the Dressrosa family can be even more prosperous.

 But Thor's words still touched him.

 Since the young eagle has spread its wings.

As a father, he should not interfere too much.

Thoughts are flying and thoughts are intertwined.

 A moment later.

 There was a gentle knock on the door.

"Come in!"

 Count Engel's thoughts were brought back, and his words immediately rang out.

 “Sir, are you looking for me?”

Michael walked in with a puzzled look on his face.

"Hold on!"

Count Engel spoke, then picked up the quill and started writing quickly.

 A moment later, a brand new parchment was written.

“Michael, pass on this information and convey it through the eagle.”

Count Engel spoke and handed over what he had just written in his hand.

 “The eagle conveys?”

"This is?"

 Listening to Count Engel's words, Michael couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

“If nothing else goes wrong, there should be people from the Church of Aberrant God active in the Northland Province, hoping to set off another divine revelation.”

Count Engel spoke softly and explained.

"What?"

 Listening to Count Engel's words, Michael's face couldn't help but change.

“Sir, are you telling the truth?”

Seemingly understanding his gaffe, Michael couldn't help but speak cautiously again.

 “There should be no problem.”

Count Engel nodded.

"this!"

 Michael's right hand couldn't help but tremble, and there was a look of shock on his face.

 “The kingdom has already heard the news.”

“You just need to convey this message. How they choose is up to them.”

Count Engel ignored Michael's shock and added another sentence.

"yes!"

Michael finally came to his senses at this moment and quickly nodded in agreement.   Then his figure quickly left.

Count Engel looked out the window again.

 The blood moon seems a bit cooler tonight.

 Count Engel's thoughts couldn't help but wander a little.

the other side.

 After Thor left the study, he returned to his room.

 He also felt uneasy in his heart.

 Even if you have already made up your mind.

 But this time things are indeed too big.

　　It was as if he had just stepped out of Novice Village and met the ultimate boss. He recalled the description of "divine revelation" in the books in his mind.

To say that you really don't care is complete nonsense.

If it weren't for the Daily Intelligence System, which had proven its power every time for nearly two years, Thor would have simply followed his father's arrangements.

  After all, compared to the territory and the future, your own life is indeed the most important thing.

 Not to mention that his father also gave him atonement.

 Enough to guarantee one's title.

Territory, at worst, we can just develop it later.

 It's not like there's no chance.

“Huh, I hope my choice is not wrong!”

After whispering, Thor in the room couldn't help but look at the blood moon in the sky.

"Owner!"

 “The water is ready!”

Anna's gentle voice sounded, and a faint green light spread across the room, calming the anxious heart a little.

 The night is getting darker.

This night seems destined to be long.

The entire Tulip Kingdom couldn't help but be completely alarmed.

 The royal capital.

 In a palace.

 A group of figures gathered together.

 These are the top beings in the kingdom.

Even the King of Tulips was present in person.

 “Aris, are you really sure that this is a divine revelation?”

A deep voice spoke, and a middle-aged man wearing golden armor looked at the old man in the center.

 “Aris, this is nothing to joke about.”

 “Yes, Aris.”

　　One voice after another spoke, and all eyes could not help but focus on the old man.

“Your Majesty, everyone, this is indeed a divinely inspired ceremony.”

“I'm afraid it has spread to most of the Northern Province at this moment. With the current scale, it will only take three months at most for the divine revelation ceremony to be fully launched.”

 The old man named Aris spoke seriously.

"this!"

Hearing the affirmative words of the other party, the eyes that gathered together suddenly became solemn.

 For a time, the whole hall fell into silence.

 Until a moment later.

 On the throne, a majestic voice sounded.

"okay, I get it!"

 “This time I have Mr. Lao.”

 “Aspros, take sir back to rest.”

 The words come out loud.

Soon there was a knight who led an old man named Aris to retreat.

 In the empty hall.

 As the old man left, no one spoke.

 Everyone could not help but feel a heavy feeling in their hearts.

“According to the covenant of the gods, the kingdom must prevent the coming of divine revelation. Eight hundred years ago, the Tulip King and the royal family were unable to prevent the coming of God. Almost half of the entire kingdom was destroyed, and the royal family was deposed by the empire.”

“Decades ago, the negligence of the Pu'er family in Nanyue Province led to the near arrival of gods. Although it was finally stopped, the southern part of Nanyue Province is still a scorched earth. You should not want such a scene to happen again in the north.”

Sitting high up, the deep voice of the King of Tulip Kingdom sounded again.

 Hearing this voice, the entire hall became quieter and quieter.

 In silence.

Suddenly, a majestic voice sounded.

“Your Majesty, I will personally go to the orc tribe.”

 In the main hall, an old man appeared silently.

 “Not enough!”

The sudden appearance of the figure and the powerful words did not cause any change in the demeanor of His Majesty the King who was sitting high above. The words rang out again, still calm.

 “Then let's add another old man!”

 There was a sigh, and then another old man appeared.

 Two people appeared.

 In the main hall, every knight wearing golden armor could not help but bow slightly.

 “Not enough!”

His Majesty the King's words remain the same.

 “Your Majesty, I don't have a few years left.”

A soft sigh sounded, and an old man appeared again in the hall. His figure was stooped, and the skin on his face was completely wrinkled. The aura of old age and decay was spreading.

 The three of them looked at each other, feeling helpless for a moment.

 “Anwar, Sabah!”

His Majesty the King ignored them and spoke again.

Following his words, the next moment, two figures appeared again in the hall.

 At this moment it is an old man and an old woman.

 “You go with them.”

 “Within three months, I need to see the head that opens the divine revelation.”

His Majesty the King's voice sounded again.

Looking at the two people who suddenly appeared, and listening to His Majesty the King's words, the three helpless people couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

 Otherwise, just the three of them, in fact, they are still a little uneasy inside.

 Divine revelation.

Even if it is not a complete divine revelation, it is not so easy to deal with.

"yes!"

 “Your Majesty!”

 After heaving a sigh of relief, several people bowed randomly one after another.

 Subsequently, the five people disappeared into the hall instantly.

 “Eight hundred years!”

On the throne, the man whispered, his thoughts drifting away slightly.

  My heart felt even heavier.

As the king of tulips, he knows very well the terror of the gods.

 Every change in the royal family is almost always due to the gods.

Maybe it can be stopped this time, but what about next time.

 Not every time you are so lucky, and not every being who opens the divine revelation is so stupid.

As long as it is turned on once, it will be a devastating blow to the entire tulip kingdom.

 This is especially true for their family.

 After all, the meaning of the royal family is to prevent the gods from returning. If it cannot be done, the empire does not mind changing another family to be the royal family of the kingdom.

I believe that many families who have achieved meritorious service in foreign battlefields will be willing to take over, just like their family back then.
