Chapter 38 [Heart of the King]
"When that guy Aragorn Roland first came here, he followed a broken ship. It's a pity... that ship really shouldn't be anchored on this island. As a result, the whole ship was swallowed...
...And that guy Aragon was brought here by me, and it was here that I reached some deal agreements with him." Chris said a little vaguely.
But this level of hint is enough!
Of course Du Wei has read the history of the Roland Empire! In fact, in the first few years when he came to this world, the enlightenment teacher that Count Raymond found for him taught him a lot. Du Wei also read the biography of the founding emperor of the empire...
He read that kind of thing completely as a novel.
Aragorn Roland. The founder of the great Roland Empire... His life, in Du Wei's opinion, can almost be said to be the kind of YY legendary novel he read in his previous life!
This Aragorn has the same strong luck and bizarre encounters as the protagonists of many novels. To use a popular saying in his previous life: His luck is so strong that it is almost heaven-defying! His fate is even stronger than that of Xiaoqiang!
The biography describes the experience of the founding emperor of the empire in great detail. Aragon was born in a declining aristocratic family. He was not even the eldest son of that family, but the third son of his father. He had no right to inherit the title and was fond of adventure since childhood.
Activity.
At the age of sixteen, he left home and went out on his own to adventure. Aragorn once participated in some adventurous mercenary teams. He was a young man full of adventurist fantasies.
And that era was also the most adventurous era in the continent! It was different from the current situation where there is only one Roland Empire thorn flower flag flying in the entire continent.
The Roland Continent of that era was a Warring States period in which large and small countries were separated. Local wars continued on the continent, big and small countries annexed each other, wars, conspiracies, conspiracies... It can be said that it was an era that created heroes and legends.
Sixteen-year-old Aragorn became obsessed with maritime adventure after spending several years in a mercenary organization.
At that time, Aragorn was twenty-one years old. He was already an excellent swordsman and had accumulated some savings during his several years as a mercenary. So he invested all his property in a merchant ship to embark on maritime trade adventures.
Activity.
The first experience of going to sea was a blow to Aragorn. His ship suffered a shipwreck, and the whole ship was destroyed. Only he miraculously escaped and ascended to heaven, saving his life!
All historians believe that...if there had not been such a shipwreck, then this great emperor who founded the empire would probably have become a successful maritime trader...instead of an emperor!
However, because of this, after the dream of maritime trade was shattered, Aragorn returned to his hometown. His father died and distributed all the property to his son... Aragorn received the smallest part.
His father was originally a low-level nobleman with only a small title, and the inheritance he left behind was naturally not much. But Aragorn made a move that was considered almost prodigal by others at the time... He sold off all his property,
A small private army was organized.
This act of losing money was ridiculed by everyone, because at that time, Aragon's hometown was a peaceful country on the edge of the continent, far away from war, and did not need the protection of any private army.
And then, Aragon's bet was right! In less than half a year, the war broke out. This small country was involved in the war between the big powers. It was annexed within a month, and then was fought back and forth between the two big powers.
Aragon's two brothers both died in the war, and the manors and farms were burned and plundered by the rebels.
Aragon, on the other hand, took his private army and joined the army of one of the big countries, and received a high military rank.
After this, Aragorn began to show extraordinary strength!
He showed extremely powerful force, and even killed the enemy general in one fell swoop on the battlefield. He was a famous senior knight in the mainland at that time. Later, Aragon accumulated countless meritorious deeds in the war...
After the war, he received a title and a fief...a land that was countless times larger than his father's territory!
But Aragorn surprisingly rejected the call of that great country and quit the army, but turned to the arms of the Magician's Guild... In less than a year, he actually obtained the qualification of a magician!
Three years later, the war broke out again. At that time, Aragorn was already a senior magician!
Throughout history, no one has ever been able to do this!
Someone once asked Aragorn why he became a magician... At that time, the young noble replied: My army needs the cooperation of magicians... Unfortunately, magicians are too rare, and I can't recruit magicians, so
, I can only learn magic by myself.
When the war broke out again, the country where Aragon was located was once in danger, and the capital was even besieged by the enemy for three months. At that time, the king issued an order for all the nobles in the country to lead their private armies to serve the king... and
The private army led by Aragon was the last to arrive.
Before that, the enemy's and our own armies had been exhausted from the struggle.
There is no doubt that Aragon's joining comes at the most delicate time.
In the last battle, Aragorn himself once again killed the opponent's commander, General Lin, a great knight! And in the subsequent battle at the magician level, Aragorn actually cast a forbidden spell-level magic,
Killed the enemy's chief magician on the spot!
The war situation took a turn for the worse... After that, the war ended, and the country's power was almost controlled by Aragon! At that time, the king had to make Aragon a duke.
A year later... the king died of illness (historians have been debating on this issue. Most people privately believe that the timing of the king's death was too much of a 'coincidence', and it happened to be just when Aragon's prestige reached its peak.
At its peak, the old king passed away and left no direct descendants, leaving the country's supreme leadership in the awkward position of having no successor. Although there are no clear records in various historical materials, the text implicitly hints at this.
This incident is probably inextricably related to the great founding emperor.)
The one who benefited in the end was undoubtedly Aragorn.
He married the old king's niece and then made his wife the queen!
Three years later, the queen died of illness, and Aragon was officially crowned King!
in subsequent history.
Aragorn Roland was shaped into an invincible commander. He led his army to win invincible battles and destroyed countless countries. It only took less than fifteen years to unify the entire continent and conquer all the people on this continent.
Flags of thorn flowers were planted everywhere! He single-handedly created the Roland Empire that still exists today!
All of this is very much like the story in a standard legendary novel, isn't it?
Du Wei tried his best to recall what he could remember about the life and deeds of the founding emperor...
Obviously, according to what Chris said... Aragorn met this devil's servant when his first sea adventure failed...
And then, Aragorn suddenly shot up like a meteor on the war-torn continent... that is, after that sea adventure ended!
Obviously, the founding emperor must have received some kind of benefit from the deal with this demon servant!
Thinking of Aragorn's almost magical life and his great achievements...
And now, when this devil's servant proposed the word "deal" to Du Wei...
Du Wei suddenly felt that his heart, which had been calm for more than ten years, began to beat!
"Cute little noble, your heart is beating." Chris smiled appropriately.
Duwei took a deep breath: "Dear Mr. Chris... My heart is beating... That's because I am being tempted by the devil!"
The weird smile on Chris's face got even worse. He suddenly waved his hand slightly, and the two women behind him, Vivian and Joanna, snorted at the same time, then fainted softly.
"Our transaction will not be known to others." Chris smiled: "When they wake up, they will forget what happened here, and they will even forget me."
The opportunity is right in front of you!
Du Wei's breathing began to quicken: "A deal... tell me, what can you give me... and what are you going to take from me?"
Chris did not answer Duwei's question directly. He said slowly: "Don't you want to ask me what I gave Aragorn?"
"I think I can guess a little bit." Du Wei pondered for a moment and answered slowly.
What did Chris give Aragorn?
The first thing Du Wei thought of was Aragorn's earth-shattering strength! The powerful martial arts of the Paladin! And the powerful magic power of the high-level magician!
Both of these make Aragorn have the status of a strong man standing at the top of the continent! He can kill the opponent's most powerful warriors on the battlefield, and can also defeat the opponent's magician! And he has successfully created the image of an invincible commander, making him
Thousands of soldiers almost worshiped him and vowed to follow him to the death!
At the same time... Du Wei also suspected something.
That is... it is recorded in history... Aragorn seemed to have fought countless battles in his life, but he seemed not to have suffered any injuries! Even after he was old, he had no illness or pain, but died in his sleep one night.
His life was almost perfect.
"In addition to powerful martial arts and magic, you also gave him an almost immortal body?" Du Wei probed.
"It's not immortality, but a body without fatal weaknesses." Chris smiled: "When Aragorn left here, I dug out his heart. His people left here, but the heart stayed forever.
He has left this place. Therefore, it is difficult for him to be injured again! Because no matter how fatal the injury is, no matter how deadly the poison is, it cannot hurt his heart... His heart will stay with me."
The corners of Du Wei's mouth and eyes twitched at the same time!
heart?
"You don't want my heart too, do you?" Duwei looked at Chris with some evil intentions: "Why did you keep the heart? Did you make it and eat it? Fry or grill it?"
"None of them." Chris didn't seem to care about the ridicule in Duwei's words, and just replied calmly: "I kept his heart with me, just as a souvenir. The heart of a true king...a king's heart."
