Chapter 1277: The Mystery of Ice Magic and Talleyrand's Warning
PS: I was too nervous yesterday, so I’m late today, sorry.
In the spring of 2525 in the imperial calendar, the Palace of Fontainebleau, the pale courtyard dedicated to Orica.
Even in the Palace of Fontainebleau, the palace of the Sun King, the Pale Courtyard is a place that frightens the palace guards and attendants. The Pale Courtyard covers an area of about 6,000 square meters and is located in a large forest. From the outside
Looks like typical black
The dark elf architectural art, with its tall spiers, purple-white buildings and dark walls, gives people a very strong sense of contrast. It is covered in shadows all year round. Even when the sun is the brightest, the pale courtyard is still glowing.
A sinister atmosphere.
The palace of Pale Queen Orica is located here. Many attendants and knights discussed that they had seen ghosts or ghosts in the pale courtyard. After the Battle of Kuileu, this was proved to be true. Ryan
The dark elf maid next to me is actually the real elf goddess, and she is in charge of the soul, death, and the underworld.
Since the fall of Nagaros, Orica moved her palace to Lion, and the Pale Courtyard has always strictly prohibited others from entering.
And on this day in spring, a human experiment was going on in the pale courtyard.
In the deep basement of the courtyard, there are three special devices that imprison three ice witches respectively. Their limbs are fixed in black pillars made of some special material and soaked in purple liquid.
, their bodies were pierced with many fine needles connected to the hose and the magic device above. They wore helmets made of purple pale soul stones on their heads. Orika's divine power was being injected into the three of them along the chains of the helmet.
In the ice witch's consciousness, there were only whining sounds in the basement.
The Pale Queen Olika and the Lake Fairy Lilith were standing below. Olika was counting something. As she softly commanded to stop, six dark elf witch sisters stepped forward and unlocked the seal of the leading ice witch.
, they took off the ice witch's helmets, revealing their long black hair with ice and snow colors and their cold and noble faces.
This ice witch was clearly the Czarina Katalin. She had just escaped from the hallucination and felt very strong nausea and retching. After barely recognizing it for a while, the Czarina sternly said: "Olica, it's you!
And the fairy in the lake, how dare you do this?!"
After struggling for a while, Katalin found that her limbs were fixed in the pillar in an "X" shape, and her body was soaked in an unknown purple liquid. She couldn't break free, so she had to curse.
Olika is wearing a red spring cherry floral first love spiral leaf fishtail skirt today. The dark elf goddess wears a pale crown and a gorgeous Hades cloak. She wears ultra-thin flesh-colored suspenders and lace jacquard stockings on her beautiful legs, and her feet are milky white.
Wearing strappy high-heeled shoes, the dark elf goddess ignored Katalin's scolding and said to Lilith: "I probably understand where the secret of the ice witch's bloodline comes from."
"Where are you from?" Lilith, the fairy in the lake, was wearing a fantasy iris pure white Bauhinia fairy evening dress. She wore the same ultra-thin flesh-colored lace stockings on her beautiful legs as Olica, but the goddess wore pantyhose, which were tender and white.
Two long ribbons hung on the incense shoulders. The soft moonlight shrouded the surface of the ribbons, with patterns of the sun, moon and stars painted on them.
The two goddesses are discussing the secrets of ice magic.
"The power of the ice witch is a strange invention of the ancient saints. I have confirmed this with Aurora and Theresa." Orika looked at the other two soaked in purple liquid and imprisoned in the black
In the pillars, there are ice witches wearing black helmets who are brainwashing. They are obviously Aurora and Theresa respectively. The dark elf goddess showed the report to the fairy in the lake: "It's not complete.
It's magic, not entirely blood. Ice magic is a strange existence. If we understand the Eight Winds of Magic as subset A and chaos magic as subset B, then ice magic does not belong to subset A but only
There is an existence that interacts with the B subset. It is unstable, but it does not corrupt. It uses the cold power of the earth and is not easily restricted by magic resistance, but it is difficult to control."
"It's a bit like the ancient holy magic used by Lustria's magic toad?" The fairy in the lake became interested, and the goddess asked casually.
"I have been conducting experiments on Aurora and Theresa before." Olica pointed to the sorceress mother and daughter who were in a state of hallucination and hypnosis: "But I have been unable to find anything. They are all loved by their masters.
Female courtiers cannot use methods that will cause them harm or have sequelae, after all, they still have to serve their master."
"Olica, you bitch! Let me go, or I will freeze you into an ice sculpture and tell Ryan everything you did to me!" Katalin screamed, struggling desperately.
"Scream, scream as hard as you can, no matter how much you scream, no one will come to save you." Olica couldn't stop laughing, and the dark elf goddess took out a lightning sword of Hal Goncy's executioner in front of Katalin.
Gesture: "Or do you want me to cut off your limbs and turn you into a ball of flesh, and stay here forever as an experiment?"
The Czarina's face suddenly turned extremely pale, and she said bravely: "If you dare to do this, you have violated the agreement made by Ryan and me!"
"It doesn't mean you can't get pregnant if you cut off your limbs, my tsarina~" Olika said with a hideous smile.
"???!!!" Katalin, whose face was as pale as paper, dared not speak anymore. She could only continue to struggle, and then looked at Olika with angry eyes.
"What did you study, Orica?" The Lake Fairy looked at Katalin with a sympathetic look, but it was just sympathy.
"Queen Miska finally disappeared on her way to the Chaos Wasteland to close the portal." Orica said seriously: "Obviously she failed, but Miska, who had the power of a demigod, did not die completely. She used her last
The power of the ice witch established a domain belonging to the ice witch, passing on her knowledge and power. After that, each generation of ice witch leaders with Romanov blood will automatically become the incarnation of Queen Miska."
"A big tree? Scattered branches?" The fairy in the lake understood a little bit: "It's like the inheritance from generation to generation of my mother goddess Isa to the eternal queen?"
"The enemy." Orika nodded with a smile: "The trunk of the big tree is Queen Miska's inherited power, the branches of the big tree are the blood of the Romanov royal family, and our Empress Katalin is one of the branches.
As the backbone, because she is both the czar and the leader of the ice witches, she naturally has the most inherited power from Queen Miska, which is why her power is particularly powerful."
"That's it." The fairy in the lake quickly understood what Olika meant: "You mean, if we can trace the origin of Katalin's blood in reverse, we might be able to get the founding empress of the ice and snow demigod Kislev.
Miska’s sleeping and lost soul, and her protective power that is powerful enough to lead the tribe all the way across the Kurgan Steppe to settle in Kislev?”
"That's right." Orica licked her lips with her tongue: "Besides, you and I can both get part of Queen Miska's power. Let's add one to five and divide each part."
"No... no, don't even think about it, don't think about succeeding!" Katalin heard the two goddesses' plan, and her heart fell to the bottom. She screamed desperately: "Even if I die, I will not let you steal Miska's ancestor.
Of power!”
"Oh? Really?" Olica glanced at Katalin indifferently: "It doesn't matter, you won't remember anything tomorrow anyway."
The helmet fell down and covered Katalin's head again. Olika's divine power penetrated into Katalin's brain along the silk thread that tied the helmet. After struggling for a few times, the tsarina was still unable to resist the power of a true god. She
Gradually it calmed down.
"Let Aurora and Teresa go." The Lake Fairy looked at the other two ice witches, feeling a little unbearable: "Forget it Katalin, they have never been against you."
"I won't really hurt them. I just like to train the ice witches who are naturally cold and elegant, so that they are forced to reveal their true nature." Orica and Lilith walked out of the basement.
Went and sat in the cold-toned reception room of the pale courtyard. The Pale Queen of Hades and the Moon Goddess of Heaven were discussing matters.
Qing: "Furthermore, our tsarina and her master have concluded an agreement. They will have a daughter to inherit the tsarship of Kislev. What value does Katalin have left? It is just the value of fertility. I will guide
The power of her Romanov bloodline enters the fetus, and the daughter born will directly become the incarnation of Miska!"
Lilith sat down, straightened her skirt, and raised one of her beautiful legs. The Lake Fairy said: "The battle between Tyrion and Malekith is about to begin again. This is the continuation of the duel between Asuryan and Kane. We
We must ensure that this duel goes on as scheduled."
"You already have a plan?" Orika frowned: "You plan to let Kane transform into Tyrion and kill all the elven gods? Except you and me?"
"It's not my plan, it's fate." Lilith said proudly: "What I have to do is just let everything happen naturally."
"Then how do we seize the origins of Asuryan and Kane?" Orika was still confused: "Asuryan's incarnation is Malekith. Do you think the Witch King will let you seize his power? And Kane's
The origin is all in the Sword of Kane."
"I have my own clever plan." Lilith said with a sweet smile: "Malekis is arrogant and inferior, and his heart is as high as the sky. He can see everyone clearly, but he can't see himself clearly. I just need to tell him, Asu
Yan's power can make you do anything, that's enough, we just need to wait."
"Is this enough?"
"As for Tyrion, the foreshadowing has already been laid." Lilith nodded: "It didn't come in handy last time, but it will definitely come in handy this time. In return, I didn't let you use your Hades army to save Ai
Salion’s nephew and niece?”
"That is the last thousand-man army of the Kingdom of Yris and the last bloodline of the Prince Yris family. Lilith, if you don't take action, I will take action." Orika said seriously: "This is also for
Owner."
"Oh, Orika, the originally murderous, aggressive, vicious and cunning goddess of the underworld, has actually changed her gender? It seems that you have really improved after following Ryan for so many years." Lilith pretended to be surprised, and in the lake
The fairy thought that Orika had the best sense of interest. When she became the moon god in heaven, she would still leave a position of secondary god for Orika.
"Hey, the Moon Goddess Lilith, who was originally full of trouble and conspiracy, and stood behind the scenes to control everything, has learned to restrain herself after getting along with her master for a long time." Orica also sneered, the pale queen thought to Lilith.
It's best to know what's interesting. When the time comes that I become the Pale God of the Underworld, I will leave the position of the maid of the God to Lilith.
The two goddesses clinked their flower tea cups, drank the wood elf flower tea together, and then smiled without saying a word. It seemed that they had reached an agreement again.
The weather is also good today!
…………I am the dividing line between good weather today…………
While Olica and Lilith continued to plot, Sun King Ryan and Sun King Queen Surya were eating fried onions with the recruits of the Old Guard in the forest hunting ground near Fontainebleau Palace.
Everyone had a great time eating fried onions, picnicking, training, marching competitions, and singing "The Onion Song". Ryan and Sulia were close to the soldiers, training with them, and guiding the Old Guards in their training, which made him very happy.
The land won the hearts of these recruits, while the traditional knights and nobles complained that their king was so concerned about the Old Guards and the Coldstream Guards, and obviously did not care enough about the outstanding young knights errant in the kingdom.
.
Ryan is affectionately called "Dad" by the soldiers of the Old Guard, while Sulia is affectionately called "Madam".
In the afternoon, after a day of training, these completely out-of-work Brittanian elites began to be allowed to move freely, and the Old Guards dispersed. Ryan and Sulia were sitting at the door of the big tent in the hunting ground,
Watching the Young Guards continue to train, this army now only has 1,000 people.
The regiment was formed not long ago. It is mainly composed of the descendants of the knights and nobles who have no inheritance rights, the descendants of the collateral descendants, the descendants of the glorious free people, and many noble private soldiers who have made military achievements in the defense of Kurona. It is a force full of unparalleled vitality.
Most of the new army members are under 20 years old.
"Their future belongs to Devon Hill." Ryan held Sulia's hand and smiled at his wife: "My son will make good use of them."
"Devin? I don't think he is that interested." Sulia held her husband's fiery hand, and the Knight Queen leaned on Ryan's shoulder: "You should think about yourself first."
"Even if you don't have much interest, you must stay with me to be the King of Knights." Ryan said with great enthusiasm: "One term... at least sixty years! Let's talk about it in sixty years."
"Then... have you considered Devon Hill's marriage? He is about to be 20 years old." Lidya Su was very concerned about this aspect.
"His grandpa has arranged his son's marriage." Ryan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You and I have no chance to arrange it."
"What are the arrangements for your foster father?" Sulia obviously did not expect that the emperor would arrange Devon Hill's marriage, and the female knight seemed a little unhappy.
"The oldest Europa family in Holy Terra, the legitimate daughter of the First Merchant Dynasty, Devon Hill's wife appointed by her father, her name is Elizabeth Amélie Eugenie, she is only twelve years old this year," Ryan said with a wry smile.
: "When the final moment is over, she will come here and marry Devon Hill."
"Okay." Lidya Su could only agree.
At this time, General Philip Mountbatten of the Mousilon Coldstream Guards came over: "Your Majesty, Talleyrand is here."
"Call him over." Ryan nodded.
The lame man got off the carriage, leaning on a crutch made of vibranium and mithril and inlaid with countless jewels and jade, and moved his body limpingly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the latest news!"
"What news?" Ryan asked casually.
"A large group of Chaos troops landed in the Kingdom of Nord. They directly defeated the main army of the Kingdom of Nord at lightning speed. Theodorik Geisel, the Grand Duke and Elector of Nord, could not resist the landing army and Brass
The fortress's Chaos Army attacked from both sides. They
Defeated, Winter City fell after holding on for 21 days. Geisel led more than 3,000 people to break out, but the retreat road to Middenheim was blocked. They could only change the route and evacuate directly to Brunswick. It was only a matter of time before Nord fell.
!" Talleyrand said anxiously.
"What? The Nord capital has fallen?" Ryan's face changed slightly.
"Yes, Your Majesty, there are various signs that the empire did not win a great victory in Heffengen. It is very likely that it was a tragic victory." Talleyrand continued: "This is my judgment. The chaos is only due to winter.
The advance was slow, and it took a lot of time to replenish troops because of the heavy losses."
"It's strange. If the empire really won a tragic victory in Heffengen, why hasn't the imperial court asked us for help?" Sulia felt very strange: "Britannia's troops are scattered across the country, and we have gathered together
The army and logistical supplies also take time."
"It's not difficult to explain, Your Majesty, and Madam." Talleyrand bowed and said: "After the great victory in Heffengen, I think the problem lies within the imperial court. Let me analyze the palace of Brunswick to you.
What’s going on.”
"In the first stage, they claimed that nothing happened."
"The second phase, saying maybe something happened, but they shouldn't take action."
"Stage three, saying maybe something should be done, but they can't do anything."
"The fourth phase is saying maybe there was something that could be done, but now it's too late."
"Hahaha~" Ryan and Lidya Su were both amused.
"Please forgive me, my two majesties, now is not the time to laugh." Talleyrand tapped the ground with his cane. The expression of the Brittanian Foreign Minister had become very serious: "This is what happens if a palace
Without the emperor’s judgment and the judgment and decision-making that the conservative bureaucrats left behind will make, in summary, Your Majesty, Madam, I think that Emperor Karl-Franz… may be in danger!”
