The severity of the matter exceeded Pedinan Grand Duke’s expectations. This unprecedented crisis has made the war-torn old Duke unable to bear and wrinkle frowned tightly.

“This is the case, my old friend,” Roseta · Augustus sat on the high back chair, calmly staring at Lord Grand Duke standing opposite him, “As I said to you before, the gods and Not a very reliable protector-an detached, powerful, unknown, and completely above mortal existence, whether or not they have been providing refuge for mortals, I am always vigilant about them. “

“… I have never understood your concerns about the gods, but now I have to admit that you are right,” Pedinan · Wender said solemnly, “I just did not expect that we should face these in our lifetime. … “

He said, he was unable to bear frowned again: “Is it necessary to verify the information disclosed by Gawain Cecil in the letter? I still have a hard time believing that … Cecil ’s rulers will be so honest and kind To remind us. “

“He is a powerful opponent, but in this matter, he is our friend,” Roseta shook the head, “In the book brought by Matilda, Gawain Cecil mentioned more than once When the destiny of mortals must advance and retreat in the face of nature and the power of the gods, I once thought it was just a kind of propaganda gesture and slogan, but now I am willing to believe his sincerity in this respect. “

“… We all live on this land.” Pedinan’s voice was low.

“Yeah, we all live on this land,” Roseta lightly said. “So I called you today to prepare for the disaster that might happen on this land.”

“… Can we really respond to the threat from the gods?” Pedinan unable to bear has some doubts, “Of course, Cecil people seem to have successfully fought against the” sacred disaster “, but they are not facing real gods, and Luck accounts for a large percentage … “

“We do n’t have to face real gods,” Roseta shook the head. “Or, I do n’t think gods will directly attack the world of mortals.”

“The gods don’t directly” attack “the world of mortals …” Pedinan repeated subconsciously, the expression on his face seemed a little confused.

“Gods need” media “, they are not so easy to come, are they?”

Pedinan frowned, looked towards the monarch who had sworn allegiance to several decades. Somehow, he suddenly saw a strange look on his face: “You mean …”

Roseta was silent for a few seconds before suddenly saying something seemingly irrelevant: “You know, I have recently started to envy our neighbors …”

……

After Pedinan Duke left, Roseta was still sitting quietly in the study. He leaned on the back chair that could cover the whole person, as if he had fallen into long-term thinking, until ten minutes of silence and stillness Then he suddenly raised his hand and turned off the light in the study with a little mana trick.

The night outside is already heavy. Only the starlight shines on the tower of the obsidian palace. As the lights in the study extinguish, the darkness quickly spreads, and the starlight outside the window also spreads through the crystal window beside it. study.

Everything in the study is immersed in the indifferent night.

Roseta tapped the armrest of the seat lightly, and in the rhythmic tapping sound, he seemed to be patiently waiting for something to arrive.

After dozens of percussion, a little dim rays of light suddenly appeared on the desk of the study, and then the dim rays of light spread quickly, quickly covering the desk, bookshelf, floor, wall Face … In just a few seconds, the entire study has been illuminated by the dim rays of light, and the muddy light also filled the window not far away, outlining the scene of Orlandale 200 years ago. .

Dusk suddenly fell.

Roseta lifts the head, the things that were originally familiar in the study are changing rapidly. Some old Old Chen ’s illusions that have long disappeared in history are covering his familiar furnishings, murmured. Sounds and light laughter from nowhere sounded from all around, as if a banquet was being held next door to the study, and the sound of laughter from the guests passed through the wall and a balcony, even as if a guest had already worn Entering this room through the wall, whispering something in Roseta’s ear.

Roseta completely ignored these illusory sounds, just staring quietly at the direction of the door, and the laughter or whisper suddenly disappeared in the next second.

Outside the closed door of the study, in the direction of the hallway, some kind of stumbling footsteps as if dragging a heavy object suddenly sounded after the whisper disappeared, and like a little closer to here.

The next second, a knock on the door came from the direction of the study door.

Roseta did not respond, and the knock on the door continued patiently.

It knocked for a long time, and as time passed, it seemed to be still in this eternal twilight, Roseta broke the silence: “You can continue to knock, or do you expect to knock the door by knocking on it?”

The knock on the door suddenly stopped, and after a few seconds of dead silence, a low, as if countless voices combined together came from the door: “Your mental intensity is really so Surprised … I have thought countless times that you are about to collapse, but you are still yourself … “

“Amazing?” Roseta shook her head. “But you are not human.”

“This is really meaningless details,” the voice outside the door said, “I don’t like details, so let’s talk about the point … Why did you take the initiative to enter this dream? This is quite rare. Situation. “

“I suddenly became curious about certain things, but I couldn’t find an answer in the world of mortals-maybe what are you willing to answer?”

Just after his words fell, a strange atmosphere suddenly filled the entire dream space. The atmosphere seemed to be mixed with surprises and joys, and at the same time there were countless senses of prying from all directions, it seems that in this dream In the depths, between those ancient memory corridors and the halls and courtyards, the sights of countless “guests” were instantly attracted, looking at Roseta Augustus’s position with indifference.

In the study room in front of Roseta, the wall on which the original decorative oil painting was hung suddenly fluctuated like a water surface, the decorative oil painting was swallowed by the wall, and then was spit out again, but the above picture has become a horse The look of Jolly Augustus.

The silhouette dangling on the painting suddenly became blurred, and the low, overlapping voice outside the study door made a chuckle: “It is full of confidence, but it is not that simple to ask the gods for knowledge … … But anyway, I’m quite happy.

“Ask a question, I’m happy to answer any questions-as long as you dare to listen.”
