How to wear a goddess statue

When the second batch of disaster relief supplies arrived at Di Simon from Wangcheng, the work of disaster relief and post-disaster reconstruction had already started on the right track.

This means that the purpose of Eleuil's coming here has been achieved, and the mission of the crown prince's disaster relief can also end here.

The princess decided to lead the caravan to leave for the final destination of this long journey—Acht.

Romul planned to return with the convoy delivering supplies.

The two teams of chariots and horses, one in front and one behind, drove out of Diximon City one after another with a distance of not too far.

Before departure, Aleuil ordered someone to forge a royal coat of arms made of silver, and inlaid it on the carriage. At this point, the identity of the caravan guard did not need to be mentioned again.

She will return to the capital as a princess.

Inside the spacious and bright carriage.

Rotas covered his eyes with a fluffy pure white ribbon, leaned against the soft cushion, tilted his head slightly and closed his eyes to rest.

A golden eagle swooped down from the sky, folded its wings when it was about to land, and stopped on the car window. A pair of sharp and powerful claws grasped the window rail, and looked inside.

"Here is your food, Shepra." Sitting next to Luotus, the princess said to the golden eagle who had parked in the wrong place many times.

The golden eagle tilted its head, the instinct of trying to get close to the gods was no match for the desire for food after all, just as it was about to fly to the window on the other side, this position was occupied by her sister.

Another golden eagle pecked the piece of meat from Eleuil's hand, swallowed it with its neck up, and let out a mocking gurgling from its throat.

Not to be outdone, the golden eagle Xie Pula responded with louder chirps, coming and going.

With the quarrel between the two golden eagles as the background sound, Luotus asked, "Is it almost to the royal city?"

The road along the way began to become flat and wide, and it was obvious that they had already driven onto the avenue.

Eleuil nodded.

There was a smile on the corner of her mouth, there was no extra wave in her eyes, and her mind was very stable.

Ahcht is the center of Horst's forces, and Aleuil came back here with only one bodyguard, which is tantamount to a big gamble.

Risks exist, but this is also a form of protection—who would believe that a princess with only her personal guards would want to seize the throne?

Horst pays special attention to his reputation and image. If he wants to attack Aleuil regardless of the eyes of others, he has to weigh it first.

Of course, Aleuil didn't think that he would succeed in the royal city just like that.

The role played by the name of the princess is relatively limited. Her greatest advantage is still in the army. She will take Horst's order and return to Acht. She just wants to make the best use of her identity and weaken the resistance in the later stages of the battle. .

It's risky, but as long as it works...

"Speaking of which, no assassin has done anything recently."

Could it be that Horst finally figured it out and stopped wasting manpower?

Aleuil came back to his senses: "Maybe it's because I'm worried about Romul, or maybe I think I'm about to arrive in the king's city and I can't make waves in his territory, so I just wait until I arrive."

Maybe there are other plans.

What kind of plot will make Horst give up the assassination along the way?

Thinking of a certain possibility, Aleuil pressed the corner of his lips, and disgust flashed in his eyes.

In any case, just play it by ear.

At this time, there was still some distance to the royal city, Luo Dasi removed the plush ribbon from his eyelids, folded it carefully and put it aside.

"Play chess?"

The Seshat chessboard was placed between the two, and the beast head chess fell on the board. There was no hidden murderous intention, and the rhythm was leisurely.

So much so that the chess pieces no longer looked like they were fighting each other, but rather like a group of small animals visiting and playing with each other, giving the chessboard a relaxed fairy-tale atmosphere.

"Lotus, in a few days it will be Creation Day."

"Ah."

"People say that Creation Day is the day of the birth of the main god, that is to say, it's your birthday?"

Rhodes' hand holding the chess paused in mid-air.

Creation Day is the first day of each year, and it is also called God’s Birthday among folks. It is said that the eight main gods and the world were conceived from the primordial water on this day.

"It shouldn't be counted." Rhodes replied.

"Then do you have a birthday? When is it—the day of the festival in early spring?"

The beast head chess fell on the grid, making a crisp sound.

Of course Rhodes has a birthday, but it is not the birthday of a god, it is a memory of a human being.

Year after year, the same banquet, dressed up like a perfect sign, nothing can be said or done in the slightest.

Although she recognizes the significance of birthdays to others and is willing to send blessings at this time, for Rhodes herself, she doesn't like it.

The silence was only for a moment, and Rhodes wrote lightly: "No."

"Is that so, I originally wanted to give you a special offering on your birthday..."

Rhodes was slightly curious: "What is it?"

The princess immediately pointed to herself.

"No, you'd better stay in the world."

Rhodes smiled lowly, with a rare narrow expression.

This is not the first time the princess has had a whim and is going to send herself out.

The most recent time was a few days ago, before falling asleep on Di Simon's Judgment Day, Eleuil began to plan for the future again, saying that although such corrupt officials could not be completely eradicated, they must be severely cracked down, the less the better.

After listening quietly, Luodas asked thoughtfully, "Is this a vow to the gods?"

The princess said: "Not only this time, but also every word I said to you."

As described in many other mythological systems, in the Soran mythology, there is a price to be paid if the vows to the gods are not fulfilled.

Rhodes didn't say anything, but Eleuil said solemnly: "If there is any item that is not achieved in the future, I will enshrine myself to you."

At that time, Rhodes shook his head, only taking it as childish words.

And now, the same thing was said again.

Hearing the answer of "No", Ailuil raised his eyes, staring at the god with upturned clear eyes, as if aggrieved: "You have no choice but to accept."

"Why is this again?"

"I'm your...believer, you can't make me change my belief."

"Oh—give me my followers, Your Royal Highness is really cunning."

Rhodes looked calm, if not for the smile flashing in his eyes, few people would have been able to see that it was a joke.

Aleuil raised the corners of his mouth, smiling innocently.

Then play chess.

A Wolf Head Chess mercilessly ate the Bird Head Chess, the style changed suddenly, and the relaxed atmosphere of small animals visiting each other was broken.

Rhodes' attention suddenly shifted to the chessboard, and the two of them came and went, and began to stage a battle royale in the animal world.

Until the end, Eleuil broke into Rhodes Fang's lair with the lion head chess with his mouth open, and at the same time, Lena's whispered reminder came from outside the car window:

"Your Highness, Miss Lorca, Achter is coming soon."

Aleuil raised his voice slightly: "Understood."

Then he began to tidy up the chessboard, and said in his mouth: "On the surface, you lost, but in fact it was me who lost."

Luo Das laughed: "Well, let me hear your new interpretation of Seshat chess."

The queen said convincingly: "Look, my beast king has fallen into your lair, and there is no leader here. If it was in the real beast jungle, it would have been defeated, and it can only be merged into your beast group. .”

Rhodes: "..."

Fortunately, the chess players in the kingdom couldn't hear Ailuil's opinions, otherwise, even if Ailiu was the princess, those chess players would definitely have a good argument with her.

This interpretation is outrageous!

Rotas turned his face away, looked through the car window, and saw the tall city wall ahead.

The city wall is made of light-colored boulders, extremely tall, and it seems to be coated with a layer of gold under the sun.

Inside the city walls is the royal city of Solancia, Acht, known as the heart of the kingdom and the place where the gods shine.

Rhodes has been here before, but only thousands of years later.

That modern city has almost wiped out the traces of the ancient Solan period, and it is no longer even called Acht. There are only two or three dilapidated ruins and the museum in the city that preserve a little bit of the afterglow of the old civilization.

Rhodes looked sideways at Eleuil.

The corner of Princess Wang's mouth still had the relaxed and joyful smile she had just a moment ago, her eyes were fixed on the city wall, the light and shadow intertwined in her eyes, and her emotions were difficult to understand.

Compared with Rhodes, the princess has deeper and more complicated feelings for this city.

She spent her childhood here, and as the little princess who was truly loved and loved by all the stars, Acht carried the most carefree time.

But falling from the kingdom of God to the underworld, falling from the clouds to the trough, is also in the royal city.

The carriage stopped slowly, then started again, passed through the city gate unimpeded, and drove all the way into the city.

The interior of the royal city is very prosperous, even in the middle of winter, there are many people walking around, because a few days later is the first day of creation of the year, objects of different shapes are hung on the branches of trees on the side of the street, corresponding to the amulets of the gods, adding to the scenery in the city. Many different colors.

"Is this going to... the palace?"

Rhodes looked away from the window.

Aleuil rested his chin on one hand, his eyes reflected the buildings on both sides of the main road, which corresponded one-to-one with his memory: "Well, it's the way to the king's palace."

Rhodes frowned slightly.

The princess said softly, "Horst won't do it so quickly. After all, at the funeral of his father, he was still crying on the empty coffin in grief."

If the princess had an "accident" as soon as she entered the city, his performance back then would always be a little subtle. Horst cherished his reputation, at least he would not make any dangerous moves in a short period of time.

But not necessarily for other operations.

Aleuil: "In a while, Horst will definitely summon me. Do you want to find a place to rest with the caravan first, or come with me?"

Rhodes did not hesitate: "Together with you."

The princess's eyelashes moved: "Okay."

A dome that was much higher than other buildings appeared in front of it, and the columns were also extraordinarily high. From a distance, you could see various symbols of gods and spirits carved on the top of the columns, including the shape of snow tea leaves.

Gradually, the palace of the king revealed its grand and magnificent appearance. The outer wall is so high that it can almost be compared with the city wall, and its history is indeed as long as the city wall.

The carriage slowed down, and the sound of approaching horseshoes sounded in front of it. It was Romul who had returned to the royal city one step earlier than the caravan.

"Father invites you to meet in the palace, he wants to see you."

The author has something to say:

Tomorrow's college entrance examination, I don't know if there is any cutie who is going to take the college entrance examination, I wish you all the best, and get a title on the gold list!

But I still hope that the little cutie who took the exam will see this blessing two days later, have a good rest, prepare for the exam, and get the ideal result www
