Alien Knights

　　 Walking out of the Governor's Mansion, Todd looked up at the dazzling sunlight above his head, speechless for a long time.

　　 Myris patted him on the shoulder and said softly, "Go back."

　　 Todd whispered to Miles: "Saladin's life has come to an end, do you know about this?"

　　 Myris hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

　　 "His heart beats quickly and slowly, and multiple organs in his body begin to fail. It's not like being sick..." Todd's voice suppressed faint anger: "...It's more like poisoning."

Myris knew the metaphor in the other party's words: "Saladin is indeed poisoned by chronic poison, a very rare mushroom extract. A small amount of it can have a soothing and relaxing effect, but if it is used for many years, it will cause physical damage. Gradually collapsed. But... this matter has nothing to do with me."

　　 "Who did that?"

　　 "The Presbyterian Church, Eleanor."

　　 Myris shook his head helplessly: "There was an alliance between the empire and the elders for a period of time. The empire provided supplies and protection to the elders in exchange for the latter’s intelligence and ability support."

"But the good times did not last long. As the empire became larger and larger, the ambitions of the Presbyterian Church became more and more swelled. The latter extended its tentacles to Saladin’s most sensitive area-religion. Eleanor ignored the imperial prohibition. Began to actively preach, recruit believers, and repeatedly expand the military strength and equipment of the mother goddess congregation."

"Faced with this situation, Saladin, a devout believer, finally broke out in anger. He ordered the destruction of the altar of the goddess, arrested the followers of the cult, and reclaimed the occupied land. The covenant between the empire and the presbytery officially ended. , The relationship between the two took a turn for the worse and fell to freezing point."

"As the mother **** Eleanor, she clearly understands that as long as Saladin survives one day, she will never have her first day. In other words, a unified empire is a disaster for her. Therefore, she The most common and effective method used by alien species is poisoning."

　　 Todd closed his eyes and sighed lightly: "I've seen it with the perspective power. Saladin's body has reached the point when the oil is exhausted, and the country will soon usher in chaos."

　　 Todd opened his eyes, looked at Miles and asked, "So, what's the matter with the throat bone?"

　　 Myris's pale eyes trembled slightly, and the whole person shuddered as if hearing bad news.

"I believe you already know something. The throat bone killed his adoptive father Theodore. After that, he took away all the experimental equipment and personnel of the relief society. With Theodore's alien technology, he took refuge in Sa Latin, began to conduct his experiments under the protection of the empire..."

　　 Todd interrupted Myris: "Experiment? What experiment?"

　　 The old man replied: "Those... things you used to see in Watch Fort and North Stone Fortress."

　　 Todd was taken aback: "Heir to the Necromancer?"

"It's not just the necromancer, the throat bone is planning something bigger..." Every time the name throat bone is mentioned, there is always a trace of fear in Myris's expression: "Sorry, Todd...I Can't say any more."

Todd stared at the old man and slowed down his speech: "Master Myris, you are my first master. I respect you. If the larynx threatens you in any way, I will guarantee your safety at any cost. "

Miles shook his head vigorously: "Todd, you don’t understand, you don’t understand! Marcos, my only son, his soul is imprisoned, if I don’t do what the throat bone says... in short, my business Leave it alone, get out of here as soon as possible!"

　　 Todd wanted to persuade Miles again, but unexpectedly the old man closed his mouth and directly chose to leave.

　　 Todd, who was disappointed, had no choice but to return to the tavern of the Alien Association first.

　　 Seeing his return, Rachel, who was waiting anxiously, greeted him quickly: "Why did you come back so long? I thought you had an accident!"

　　 Todd sat down on the chair sullenly, his face full of depression.

　　Rachel sat next to him, looked at his expression, and asked tentatively: "Why? Didn't you see Miles?"

　　 "No, I saw him, besides him, I also saw an unexpected person."

"Who?"

　　 "Saladin."

　　Rachel took a breath: "Why is he in Anuda City?"

　　 Todd shrugged and told Rachel about the conversation with Saladin and his observations.

　　 "You mean, Saladin is dying?" Rachel said incredulously: "That Saladin, known as the agent of God and the immortal God of War, is dying and has no cure?"

After thinking for a moment, Rachel said: "However, this sounds a lot like Eleanor's style of doing things. People and things that cannot be mastered should be destroyed as soon as possible instead of letting go. Moreover, once the empire collapses, it will be given to the mother goddess. Teach more opportunities for development."

　　 Finding that Todd is still in a bad mood, Rachel said, "Saladin’s death has more advantages than disadvantages for Twilight and Froststone. You should be happy."

　　 "I understand..." Todd said solemnly, "But after talking to Saladin today, I don't know why, watching such a king slowly die, there is always an uncontrollable depression in my heart."

　　Richier said thoughtfully: "I can probably understand it, maybe this is the gratitude between heroes..."

　　 "About the throat bone, Myris said something..."

　　 Todd repeated the old man's words again, and Rachel frowned as he listened.

"After Theodore died, all his research materials and equipment, as well as the entire relief society technicians, disappeared completely. If the throat bone took all this, then many things can be explained. But the question is, what exactly does the throat bone intend to do..."

Rachel put his chin in one hand and recalled: "Theodore and Iliad are partners in the Jade Alliance and comrades in the Alien Association. Together, they are studying the technology for the resurrection of the dead. So, most of them They shared the research notes and experimental equipment. Now that the throat bone has taken Theodore's things, that means..."

　　Rachel began to count his fingers one by one: "He should have a series of techniques and notes on hand, such as the resurrection of the dead, Sutherland bacteria, Absolute Will, and the beacon tower."

　　 Todd reminded Rachel with a wry smile: "You have forgotten another important thing..."

"what?"

　　 "The throat bone may have a tyrant on his hand."

　　 Two days later, in the evening, on the plank road in the port of Anuda.

Todd looked at Miles who came to see him off in front of him, and said with emotion for a while: "Master, please forgive my stubbornness, but I still want to persuade you again and go with me. When I arrive at Twilight City, I can use everything. Strength helps you get out of trouble~www.readwn.com~ The fierce sea breeze blows Miles's wide gray robe, and his withered body, like a wooden stake, sways gently with the wind.

The old man shook his head and said to Todd, “It’s easy to fall from heaven to hell, but climbing from **** to heaven is an impossible dream. Todd, don’t worry about me, a dying old man. , Protect everything you cherish, and always follow the light of God."

　　 Myris crossed his chest, then took a book from his arms and handed it to Todd.

"what is this?"

Myris said to Todd: "Over the years, Saladin and I have been discussing some academic topics and philosophical ideas. I know that you are interested in the way of governing the country, so I will share some of Saladin's remarks and remarks on the emperor's art overnight. Imagine, all excerpted and sorted it down. Take it back and have a look. From this, you may be able to find the answer to the question."

　　 Todd looked at the old man in surprise, and took the book subconsciously.

Miles patted Todd's arm, and the words were a bit sentimental and a bit gratified: "Todd, you are the smartest and wisest student I have ever taught. I have always felt guilty and failed. I taught more and left you without saying goodbye. Although I am not a competent teacher, I hope you can become a great monarch..."
