Proof of the Sun King

Ryan had no idea what Teresa and Aurora were discussing. The Count himself went back to the study in the winery and sat down to sort out some materials.

The large desk was filled with various documents, Ryan sighed lightly. He drank a lot of wine today. After the banquet, everyone went back to their rooms to rest, but as the earl, he had to sort out the documents and the fairy in the lake. Made an appointment with him to meet at the Lily Island in the Sharon Forest at midnight.

All kinds of materials to attack Musilon have been closely prepared. As the earl himself, Ryan had to personally review a lot of information. Ryan, who drank a few more glasses, was a little irritable, but he had to do it himself, because Breen Tania is different from the empire. In the empire, each elector has a mature bureaucracy in his hands to maintain his rule. As long as they need it, the bureaucrats will quickly get things done.

In Brittany, the nobles have to take on these troublesome chores by themselves. Lane is sometimes very fortunate that he has such a very talented and considerate wife as Suria, who can always handle all kinds of things. well done.

Reviewing the documents, Ryan thought that the bureaucracy is really annoying, but it is extremely necessary because it can ensure efficient administrative capabilities, efficient handling of various daily affairs, and efficient material allocation capabilities. It is the relatively backward vassal system of Brittany that is completely unable to catch up.

For example, Emperor Karl Franz sitting in Brunswick wants a box of oranges, he only needs an order, and in an hour the bureaucrats appointed by the emperor will send a box of oranges into the palace, the emperor himself Don't worry about it after the order.

And what about Brittany? King Richard wants a box of oranges, he has to send someone to the warehouse to check, no? Richard must then order his valet to look for it in the market, haven't he? Then he will sign the expropriation order and go to the orchard for expropriation.

Maybe a few days passed in the process, and Richard had to order it himself.

This is the difference between the two systems.

With his own bureaucracy, Emperor Karl-Franz could free up his hands to deal with military and political affairs, or lead troops to expeditions in person, without worrying that the entire imperial court would be in chaos when he was away, and simple and tedious things would naturally be done by someone. , the emperor himself only needed to focus on the important things.

The lords of Brittany are not good, they are forced to deal with a lot of tedious daily affairs on weekdays, if they leave their territory, then they must appoint regents and magistrates.

But Brittany is not without benefits. It is precisely because of this vassal system that military expenses and various supplies are issued by the knights themselves, and the knights themselves will not embezzle their own money.

The empire is different. The more troops there are, the longer the supply line will be, and military spending and supplies will be distributed layer by layer, which naturally gives the bureaucrats a chance to do their best. When Richard's valet brought a box of oranges into the palace, the valet Really only one box of oranges was collected in his domain, and when Emperor Karl-Franz was tasting oranges in the palace, his officials most likely had collected two boxes in the name of the emperor. Oranges, or even four boxes of fruit.

In the process of handing in the layers, three boxes of fruits disappeared. Where did these things go?

No one knows, and everyone knows.

And over time, the bureaucracy will get bigger and bigger and more decayed and rotten, it's like a finely-running cog, today it's turning to maintain its rule, tomorrow it will continue to work in perfect harmony, the whole system Inertia will gradually develop.

After thinking about it for a while, Ryan buried his head and continued to correct the documents, when the door of the study was pushed open.

Wearing a long white fox velvet low-neck, charming pale pink pleated satin dress, and wearing a brown windbreaker, Sulia pushed the door directly in with a silver plate. With endless tenderness, she came to Ryan and put the plate on the table: "My husband, it's been hard work, this is supper."

Inside the silver plate is a cup of hot milk and a puff pastry, it is made of three layers of brown multi-layer pastry and two layers of sweet cheese sauce, although the materials are simple, the process of making the pastry is extremely complicated, and the maker has to fold the pastry repeatedly , so that the pastry is tasty enough.

Ryan raised his head from the large number of scrolls. When he saw such exquisite craftsmanship in the pastry, he immediately understood: "Did you make it by yourself?"

"The lady taught me how to do it." Suria smiled, and then the countess screamed. She was picked up by the waist and placed on her husband's lap. The female knight was startled: "Ryan! You bastard! "

"Madam~" Ryan buried his head in Surya's broad chest, enjoying the soft touch: "You are the best for me!"

"Of course, I'm your wife!" Surya stretched out her index finger and tapped Ryan's forehead, and the suffocating face of the female knight was full of happiness: "Okay, eat it while it's hot. , are you going to Lily Flower Island at night?"

"Well, Madam's oracle, what we've been preparing for is about to come to fruition." Ryan nodded, but he didn't plan to let Suria go, and hugged his wife's body on his lap: "Suria, Nothing else? Come talk to me."

"Of course." Surya looked at the heavy snow outside the window, and the gentle and pleasant female knight leaned on Ryan's arms obediently: "Ryan, I always feel that your behavior today is a bit strange, you seem to be intentional estranged from Ms. Aurora."

"How did I alienate her? I led my subordinates to greet her outside the winery and applauded." Ryan said with a smile, holding his wife in his arms.

"That's not what I mean, you have done enough etiquette, what I'm saying is, if it's as I understand it, you and Elder Aurora have known each other for more than ten years, but today you behave like It's a guest who has only met her a few times, so the sense of distance is obvious." Suria took the opportunity to ask the question she cared about.

"I did it on purpose." Ryan's fingers slid across the ends of Suria's long curly blond hair.

"on purpose?"

"Well, in fact, my relationship with Elder Aurora and Teresa is quite complicated. You must know that Aurora once saved my adoptive father Norman in a war." Ryan nodded, the husband and wife While tasting the hot milk and delicious Melaleuca crisps sent by Surya, the two listened to Ryan's story: "I used to speak in a low voice in front of her too."

"Ryan, you don't seem to be such a vengeful person." Surya said amusingly: "You are not the king of Belgar."

"I'm not holding grudges, it's just that my status has changed now, but it's very likely that Aurora's perception of me hasn't changed. Maybe in her impression, I'm still the one who has to bow in front of her and stand to speak. , low-pitched young man." Ryan said with a wry smile: "If I act very close, maybe Ms. Aurora really feels that she is still the unattainable sanctuary witch, it will be troublesome, I just want Equality, it's that simple."

"So you pretended to be indifferent just to make her recognize the reality, because you are no longer the little knight who can make her round and flat at will?" Suria immediately realized Ryan's thoughts.

"Sometimes it's not a bad thing to be a little further away." Ryan nodded: "I can't let my subordinates think that I am weak and bullying. Besides, I am the lady's god-chosen champion."

"Well." Surya leaned lazily in Ryan's arms, and the couple enjoyed a warm moment: "Just think about it."

"Except for Veronica, witches all have this common problem. They don't look down on men who are too weak, but men who are too strong... Forget it, I think you know Sulia too." Ryan's expression was a little complicated. : "Actually, I have paid back a lot of favors between Aurora and Teresa over the years, and I feel that I owe them nothing. Teresa is indeed my female courtier, but once I lower my posture, Aurora Ra will definitely set out a lot of conditions and requirements, and if I refuse all of them at that time, it will appear that I am too indifferent, which is not a chivalrous way."

"No wonder you've always spoiled Ms. Veronica." Surya didn't seem to care about Aurora's affairs. The female knight thought that if Ryan couldn't refuse some conditions at that time, she would also come out as a lady to stop her, the female knight. But this female elder of the Garland Council is completely unimpressed.

The two kept it warm for a while, and when Ryan finished correcting the last document, he stood up: "Then I'll go out."

"Well, I'll wait for you to come back." Surya nodded, the female knight knew that the oracle of the fairy in the lake asked Ryan to go to Lily Island to meet her at midnight.

Ryan gently kissed Suria for a few seconds, then turned and left the room, leaving Suria alone in the room.

Looking at the heavy snow outside the house, Suria picked up her pen and was about to write something.

An unexplained feeling of nausea suddenly rushed up the female knight's throat, and Suria took two deep breaths before she recovered.

Immediately, she seemed to suddenly realize something, and her originally pale face was suddenly dyed with red clouds.

…………I am the dividing line of sudden nausea…………

Sharon Forest stretches out, Brittany Holy Land, Lily Island, under the ground deep in the middle of the lake.

In the vortex formed by the condensed power of the fairy goddesses in the lake, ten teenage boys were lying quietly, most of them were locked in mysterious devices, a pure psychic vortex enveloped them, and the lake The golden divine power of the middle fairy is also flowing around these boys.

The fairy in the lake, who hadn't appeared for a long time, walked in front with the golden chalice in her hand: "This is all the remaining children of yours, only ten people persisted to the end, and the rest either failed to pass the test and died, or couldn't bear it. The energy exploded, and some were swallowed by the Chaos Domain and turned into a cloud of ash."

Today's goddess is wearing a high-quality Champs-style threaded knitted silk skirt. The slits in the skirt reveal slender legs, which are slender and well-proportioned under the wrapping of black pantyhose. The neckline of the long skirt is tightly supported by the plumpness of the goddess. , The long golden hair reaching to the ankles hangs down like a waterfall, the fairy in the lake wears a corolla made of golden irises on her head, and her body is covered with all kinds of pearls, especially one from Surya. The whole set of platinum jewelry is the favorite of the fairies in the lake.

The goddess of national beauty and beauty, but her brows are furrowed now. She follows every step of the way, with a pair of black silk beautiful feet stepping on fiery red high heels, and complaining a little: "Ryan, you better ensure that your heir is strong enough, Otherwise, the price we pay for this experiment is really huge."

"The number of survivors of the Grey Knights has always been very low. Even with my Primarch here, it's a miracle that ten of the three hundred boys survived." Ryan frowned and followed behind the fairy in the lake. He checked one by one. Looking at the boys' pods, the Grey Knight Primarch looked at his ten remaining offspring: "My lady, I remember that I only asked you to assist me in transforming these boys, not letting you pour your divine power into theirs. Inside?"

"My champion, please don't doubt my motives!" The fairy in the lake turned around and stretched out her small hand wearing a platinum bracelet and platinum ring with the emperor's blessing, pinching it on Ryan's face, and said angrily: " Without my divine assistance, perhaps only one or two of the three hundred boys would have survived."

Ryan frowned even more after listening to the words of the fairy in the lake. He opened his mouth and said nothing in the end.

The secret army building plan of the Grey Knights belonging to this world started a few years ago~www.wuxiamtl.com~Last year at the Winter Veil Festival, the Emperor and Clarkson who arrived brought over a dozen Grey Knights gene seeds to Ryan. , as well as techniques for training Grey Knight recruits.

Ryan immediately began his plan to build an army.

Through the channels and help of the fairies in the lake, after a few years, Ryan has secretly collected 300 boys with sufficient psionic talent, and stored them in the deepest underground vortex of the lake in the Lily Island Lake in the Xialong Forest. Use the secret relics left by the ancient saints to implant and hatch gene seeds.

However, the success rate was horribly low. In the first month of the transformation experiment, more than half of the 300 boys died.

But this is the price of making Grey Knight recruits. The Grey Knights are the last genetic heritage of the Emperor. A powerful spirit and a holy body are the most precious gifts the Emperor bestows on the Grey Knights, even if Belissa, the great sage of Mechanism Leu Kaur has improved the manufacturing technology through the blood of the Primarch Lane, even though Lane's own psionic power can protect and guide the minds of these boys, making them more tenacious and tenacious, these boys with psionic talents They still die in droves.

This shows how expensive the Grey Knights are in training new recruits without the Primarch.

By the way, when the Emperor left, he took almost a thousand milliliters of blood from Ryan, and it took Ryan several days to recover.

Nearly a year later, there are now only ten of the three hundred boys left, and these ten remaining boys will be implanted with the Grey Knight's gene-seed, and then slowly grow in the culture chamber until the gene-seed is integrated into their bodies and soul.

These boys will be the honor guards of the Grey Knights Chapter.

They will fight alongside the Primarch until the end of the world.
