Gods, Empires, Kingdoms

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 damage caused by the divine revelation will be unimaginable. 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.

"Okay, I'll help you prepare."

"You should stay at home these days!"

"I will withdraw Ren and the others as soon as possible!"

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

By now he had made up his mind.

Indeed, what Thor said was right.

But after all, this involves "divine enlightenment", and any caution is not too much.

In particular, Thor has shown such talent, and he is likely to be another sky knight in the future.

As long as they can safely break through to the Sky Knights, 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.

And looking at his father's determined expression.

Thor pondered for a moment, then spoke again.

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

"Do you believe me?"

At this moment, he made up his mind.

He must go to the territory.

If there is a real danger, the daily intelligence system will inform it months in advance. In this case, it is naturally impossible for him to accept it if he is asked to give up his territory directly.

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

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

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

But further up.

His target is not just Sky Knight.

But a higher level.

"Thor, you!"

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

"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."

"The Northland Province is my opportunity. I hope my father will not stop it."

Thor spoke seriously, looking at his father.

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

It was because of this period of getting along that Count Engel gave him enough trust that he dared to speak like this.

And listening to his son's words, looking at his serious expression.

Count Engel's frown deepened.

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

Even Thor didn't say these things.

But Count Engel can actually sense something.

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

"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."

"Accidents can happen at any time. Perceiving danger does not mean avoiding danger."

After a moment of silence, with his son's eyes still on him, Count Engel's voice sounded again.

"I see."

"Father."

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

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

"call!"

"As long as you understand."

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

After taking a deep look at Thor, Count Engel finally did not persist, 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 didn't know whether his decision was 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.

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

But Thor's words still touched him.

Now that the young eagle has spread its wings.

As a father, he should not interfere too much.

My thoughts are flying and my thoughts are intertwined.

After a while.

There was a gentle knock on the door.

"Come in!"

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

"Sir, are you looking for me?"

Michael walked in with a confused look on his face.

"Wait a moment!"

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

After a while, 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 it?"

"This is?"

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

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

Count Engel explained softly.

"What?"

Listening to Count Engel's words, Michael's expression 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 reacted 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.

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 enlightenment" 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 his title.

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

It's not like there's no chance.

"Phew, 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 down her anxious heart a little.

The night is getting darker.

The night seemed destined to be long.

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

The royal capital.

In a palace.

Figures gathered together.

These are the most top-notch existences 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 no joke."

"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."

"At this moment, I'm afraid it has spread to most of the northern province. 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!"

Listening to the other party's affirmative words, the eyes that gathered together suddenly became solemn.

For a moment, the hall fell into silence.

Until a moment later.

On the throne, a powerful voice sounded.

"Okay, I get it!"

"This time I have Mr. Lao."

"Aspros, take sir back to rest."

Words come out.

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

In the empty hall.

As the old man left, no one spoke.

Everyone couldn't help but feel a heavy feeling in their hearts.

"According to the covenant of the gods, the kingdom must prevent the arrival of the divine revelation. Eight hundred years ago, the Tulip King and the royal family were unable to prevent the arrival of the gods. 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 an almost divine visit. 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.

And listening to this voice, the entire hall became quieter and quieter.

In silence.

Suddenly a powerful 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 sounded again, still calm.

"Then let's add another old man!"

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

Two people appear.

In the main hall, every knight wearing golden armor couldn't help but bow slightly.

"not enough!"

His Majesty's words remain the same.

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

A 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 in the hall again.

At this moment there 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.

Seeing 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 would actually feel a little uneasy inside.

Divine inspiration.

Even if the divine enlightenment is not completely opened, it is not so easy to deal with.

"yes!"

"His Majesty!"

After heaving a sigh of relief, several people randomly leaned forward.

Then, the five people disappeared into the hall instantly.

"Eight hundred years!"

On the throne, the man whispered, his thoughts wandering slightly.

My heart felt even heavier.

As the King of Tulip, he is very aware of 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 activated 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 to another family as 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.
