The Sun King's Evidence

"Brother, are you awake?" Ryan looked a little embarrassed. He thought to himself how much Sanguinius had seen?

Lidya Su also quickly separated from Ryan. The female knight felt a little unhappy. It took such a long time to have such a good atmosphere, but the brother Ryan came here out of nowhere!

But thinking of what Ryan said about Sanguinius, coupled with his almost perfect appearance and holy temperament, Sulia thought to herself that it was really difficult for her to have a bad feeling towards Ryan's brother.

"Ah, I don't know how long I've been awake. I'm in a daze, vaguely, vaguely." The shadow of Sanguinius nodded slowly: "Amidst the painful curse, I felt hope and hope. The power of warmth gradually awakens."

"Are you okay?" Ryan was also unhappy. He was especially worried that Sanguinius had not seen his weak look just now. "Brother, when did you, uh, watch us?"

"Probably when you started making chocolate." Sanguinius's shadow fluctuated slightly, and it was obvious that it was very difficult for him to show up: "A great confession, Ryan, because you have a wife like Sulia. And feel happy, if it weren't for her persistence, you might never reveal your heart."

Then haven’t you seen everything? Ryan complained in his heart that the original Gray Knight gene was a little embarrassed to face this situation. Ryan didn't know what he should say.

"Don't hesitate, brother." Sanguinius seemed to see Ryan's dilemma: "Now that you have spoken to your wife, why are you still hesitating? Although I am not familiar with you, after From my observation during this period, you are always hesitant when doing things, and I don’t understand what you are hesitating about.”

"...I am very hesitant." Ryan said to Sanguinius: "About this world and the future."

"I understand, you are always worried about not doing well, you are always worried about not being able to complete the task." Sanguinius' shadow shone brightly, and he said cheerfully: "I have been hanging around with Fulgrim for a long time, and I have contracted this disease. He pursues perfection, but you pursue not making mistakes. You always give me a feeling of being constrained when doing things. Think about this, consider that. If Fulgen’s purpose is to draw the best painting, then you give me The feeling is that I hope there won’t be any mistakes in the whole painting process.”

"The situation is complicated and I have to do it." Ryan bowed his head and admitted.

"Is the situation as complicated as the situation when Jonson and Guilliman and I formed the Second Empire together?" Sanguinius asked, and the Blood Angel's face was full of memories: "I know that it is a sin to do so. , I wanted to rush back to my father more than ever. I kept shouting and calling my father's name, longing to be with him in this dark and chaotic moment, but even so, I did not reject Guilliman. proposal, because at this time, the establishment of the Second Empire is still necessary, do you understand what I mean?"

"You have made a choice, don't regret it?" Ryan held Sulia's hand. The female knight gently took out the silk scarf and wiped away the tears on Ryan's face, and then wiped her own.

"For a large empire, any policy has only short-term and long-term pros and cons, and there is no right or wrong." Sanguinius looked at Ryan, his eyes were gentle and full of power: "I once and Silence Wang has discussed this issue. From a certain perspective, I agree with his point of view, that is, there is no reasonable system or unreasonable system in the universe. There are only systems that can operate and survive. Such is the case with the Necrons. , Father’s empire is like this, Guilliman’s five hundred worlds are like this, and even Jonson’s Caliban is like this.”

"When I found that my heir was robbed of his sanity by blood thirst and black rage, even though it was painful, I chose to face it. I would solve the problem. No matter what means I used, I would get him out of the sea of ​​suffering."

"When the Slaanesh demon named Kiris told me that if I jumped into the demon forge, all my descendants could be saved. I knew it was a trap, but I still made the decision without hesitation. If It’s not if Melos pushed me away at the last moment.”

"I know that if I rush to my father's side to participate in the final battle, I may... or even definitely die, but I will still go." Sanguinius always kept smiling: "You know why, if it must be me , then, why not? I will always fight for love, courage and justice. I am not anyone's doll, nor anyone's tool, nor a weight on the gambling table. I am the glorious son of the emperor, accompanied by light. , no regrets, I will only fight for my ideals."

"Even if that ideal is flawed, even if he just uses us as a tool?" Ryan asked.

"If the ideal is flawed, then correct it. If you don't love your father, how can you expect your father to love you?" The gentle golden light around Sanguinius flowed throughout the chocolate workshop, Nourishing the hearts of Ryan and Sulia, the Primarch of the Blood Angels was extremely calm: "Don't always think about what you get, we can't always be so selfish."

"The prophecy may not be true." Ryan was still trying to refute, but even Sulia could see his wavering.

"The prophecy may not be true, but we will definitely face countless challenges in the future. I can predict that in a world of ice and snow, you and Russ will be under a castle with hundreds of black smoke, under the endless and ruthless wind. The Chaos army and the human army are fighting against a black shadow." Sanguinius's shadow became more and more shaken and blurred: "I can't see the result, but I can be sure that the opponent's strength is no better than that of Kabanha. Inferior.”

"Ruth?" Ryan sighed: "He may be in the Far East now."

"He will come back. My prophecies have always been accurate, at least in the beginning." Sanguinius's long golden hair began to disappear, and he closed his eyes: "I look forward to the day when I will be with you again. .”

"Brother, give me a little more time, and I will definitely bring the mantra scroll to you." Ryan nodded.

"Thank you, Ryan." Sanguinius smiled: "I am the one who wants to thank you. If it were not for you, my father would not come back. If it were not for you, Fulgrim and Angron would not come back either. , I lied when I asked Guilliman and Jonson if there would ever be a day when we could be together again."

"Brother?"

"You and Fulgrim don't have to force anything about me." Sanguinius shook his head, always keeping a smile on his face: "I can feel how important the things you want to steal are, and I can also feel that There are so many dangers lurking within the Phoenix Pyramid, if you really can't complete the mission, then give up."

"We're not going to give up," Ryan stressed.

"Two for one is not cost-effective." Sanguinius shook his head: "There is no need to sacrifice you and Fulgrim. Fulgrim will do a better job than me as commander and regent, and you are also irreplaceable. I’ve been here like this for ten thousand years.”

"I promise that you, Brother Guilliman and Brother Jonson will meet again." Ryan remained firm.

"Goodbye, or never see you again." Sanguinius did not force himself. He always forced himself, but never forced others. His short appearance made his strength exhausted, and he disappeared in the light and shadow, only in the air. It left behind phantoms of feathers and warm dapples of light.

"I promise, even if it's two for one, my father will definitely be willing to trade Angron and Luojia for you." Ryan finally added, forcing a smile to make everything look less serious.

"But I don't want to." Sanguinius's voice came out from the void, and finally disappeared into nothingness: "This joke is not funny at all, Ryan, even though I don't know why, I also feel that my father is definitely willing to change it like this."

Sanguinius left, and his wings and words gave Ryan and Sulia strength and psychological comfort. Sulia held her husband's hand and whispered: "My dear, what should we do now?"

"Let's go back." Ryan nodded: "Go back to the villa and discuss what to do next."

"Um."

…………I am the dividing line between two and one and still make a profit…………

In the next week, the time came to the end of October in the Imperial Calendar 2513.

The army of high elves began to slowly gather in Lothern, but the number of soldiers who came was still far less than expected. The kingdom of the high elves in the inner ring basically did not send troops to participate in this assault plan against the Undead Pirate Burial Ship Cemetery. , and Nagareth, Charis and Cosqui in the Outer Ring Kingdom did not send troops.

In the courtyard of the Phoenix King's Court, Phoenix King Fenuba finally finished his work on the Isha ceremony. He almost immediately summoned his personal White Lion Guard Captain Cohir: "How is the situation?"

"The local elven nobles and troops in Lothern have all responded to the call." Cohir quickly approached and pulled out a list: "The armies of Tyran Locke and Yris have also come, but other kingdoms... Very few people come.”

"As expected." Fenubar took over the list. The war lord he appointed recruited about 30,000 elven troops, and the sea lord Aislin sent 18 battleships, 15 destroyers and other warships. The high elf fleet is already the largest fleet that the high elves have assembled without affecting the defense of the north.

Among them, there are two high-elite dragon boats with dragons and two Fierce Yang dragons.

"I will personally watch the battle when the time comes." Fenuba nodded calmly, and the Phoenix King looked at Cohir and said: "It's just that I'm worried that the number of troops is not enough, and there will always be more and more creatures like the undead. I'm very worried. Understand them.”

"The war lord said that he needs at least the military support of at least two kingdoms out of the Kingdom of Savri, the Kingdom of Caledor, and the Kingdom of Avalon." Cohir said: "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

Fenuba was silent.

The high elves have their own national conditions here. Due to Ulthuan's excessive decentralization of power to local governments, the major kingdoms and subordinate elven lords took control of the standing armies.

Don't think that the high elves' excessive decentralization is a stupid act. In fact, the Asurs' decentralization of power is the result of careful consideration.

There are three reasons. First, during the Elf Empire period, due to the extremely prosperous culture and the pursuit of democracy and freedom, the elves deeply hated the centralized and authoritarian political system. If it were not for the invasion of Chaos that gave birth to the Phoenix King, the war leader As the spiritual leader, the Elf Empire has always only had the cultural symbol of the Eternal Queen.

Second, during the Great Schism incident, the shameless betrayal and conspiracy of Malekith, the son of the first Phoenix King Alario, and the emergence and division of the dark elves made the high elves firmly believe that centralized power and dictatorship are extremely easy to do without. The entire Ulthuan is controlled by some careerists and conspirators, especially the Witch King Malekith, who has his own legal claim to Ulthuan. In this case, it is even more important to decentralize and fragment the power, otherwise it will be easy Being served in a pot.

For example, let's say Ulthuan is a martial arts gym, and Malekith, the son of the first generation gym owner of the martial arts gym, comes to play. Normally, Malekith only needs to say, "Call your gym director or master to come out." ", and then defeat the BOSS, it will be considered as a success.

The high spirits will not let Malekith have this opportunity. What they want is for everyone in the martial arts hall to stand up: "We have no master, you must defeat us all."

This is how Malekith has continued to fail for thousands of years. Every time the Witch King invades, he finds that he has to fight against the high-spirited forces one by one. He must ensure that he wins every war without making any mistakes, and From time to time, people who have been defeated before will say, "I have come up with new moves during this period, and I don't recognize them anymore! Let's fight again."

Third, it is because a large number of monsters in the ringed mountain range of the Anuri Mountains often attack the high-elf territory. At the same time, the Anuri Mountains lead directly to the realm of chaos. Normally, it is impossible for chaos demons to appear in Ulthuan if there is a large whirlpool. , there is no problem with this.

However, the maelstrom is not a stable structure. It occasionally fluctuates and becomes unstable. The wind of magic also changes from time to time. In some cases, a large wave of chaos demons will appear in the mortal world every few decades, sometimes hundreds of them. Chaos demons will not appear for years.

In this case, Ulthuan must ensure that there are large and sufficient troops in various places to guard strongholds and cities, and ensure that each lord has military autonomy. Decentralization of power is imperative. This is why the empire insists on the elector system. The same reason why Reitania maintains the principality system.

Finubar knew that it would not be difficult for Tyrion to persuade the local elven lords and armies of Lothern to fight a war, because the undead fleet affected trade and affected everyone's vital interests.

What is really difficult is that the kingdoms in the inner circle enjoy comfort and the kingdoms in the outer circle are at risk of war. To persuade them to send troops, there must be a real threat, or sufficient interests and reasons.

Tyrion's meaning is simple, he needs the influence of the Phoenix King.

"Call Ciel over," Finuba said to Cohir.

After a while, a high elf noble strode over. He looked quite handsome but had a gloomy aura, with a big nose, big eyes, and long silver hair parted in the middle. He was taller than a high elf. He is not very tall, about 1.8 meters tall, and he walks in an upright and peaceful manner, with a sense of nobility.

He is Charles Maurice Bannister, the foreign minister and interior minister who was just appointed by Phoenix King Fenuba, and is also one of Fenuba's most trusted ministers.

"Your Majesty, are you looking for me?" The noble noble bowed politely.

"Yes." Fenuba nodded: "I have a task for you."

"Please say."

"Go and meet someone for me and ask his opinion for me."
