Master Tongtian

Upper chamber.

The door of the hall is in the shape of a round arch, with a striking Earth God Seal on the top of the vault. The door is sealed with a black-gold divine power barrier, making it completely impossible to perceive the situation inside.

There were also two tall guards standing next to the door. Their power was as high as level 4. They were wearing flying-winged golden helmets, gorgeous golden armor, and holding bright golden spears. They were very powerful.

When Desiya brought Rosen to the door, one of the guards said in a deep voice: "Ms. Desiya, stop, the Queen has ordered that only Mr. Rosen is allowed to enter the chamber."

Since it was the Queen's order, Desiya naturally had no way to argue.

He handed Van Delon's soul cage and Mrs. Alantis's white jade skull to Rosen, then retreated to the door and waited.

Rosen strode to the divine power barrier, took a deep breath, and then passed through the divine power barrier at the door.

Entering it, you will see a rotunda with a diameter of about 20 meters. The floor of the rotunda is empty. Until about three meters high, seven platforms with guardrails protrude.

There is a very gorgeous chair on each table, but with different styles.

Among them, the middle chair is the largest and has the highest position. It is made of dark gold material and combines elegance and majesty.

Obviously, this is the seat of the Queen of Earth.

There are three divine thrones on each side. They are slightly smaller in size and slightly lower in position. They should be the positions of the six great gods.

When Rosen came in, every chair was still empty.

He was not in a hurry, so he stood in the center of the rotunda with his head bowed and waited patiently.

Only about half a minute later, on the second picture from the left side of the Queen's seat, which was colorfully painted with various alchemical tools, light and shadow flickered, and a white-haired old man with a calm face appeared.

Why do powerful gods have old men?

Rosen knew this, not because his body was really aging, but because a god wanted to embody the temperament of an old man.

For example, if the mind is as calm as water, or if it is calm and kind, the image of a young person is obviously not suitable.

Sister Desiya also introduced the situation of the major god-lords to Rosen in detail. After a little verification, she knew the identity of this god-lord.

It was Typhon, the god of alchemy.

After the old man appeared, he immediately asked: "Mr. Rosen, I feel my daughter's breath. Is she still alive?"

Sister Desiya said that the alchemist god's power level is 7.4, which is quite satisfactory, and he is not good at fighting. He can become a god-lord because he has incredible alchemy abilities and is the strongest alchemist in the Kingdom of God.

It is also said that he has a gentle temperament, even a bit cowardly, and he likes children very much.

Although he has many children, he takes good care of each child.

And because Mrs. Alantis is extremely accomplished, she is not only loved but also highly valued by her.

This news flashed through Rosen's mind quickly, and he thought to himself: "With Mrs. Alantis's affection, at least the Alchemist Lord will not easily become my enemy."

So, he held the white jade skull in both hands and presented it.

"Thanks to the favor of fate, Mrs. Alantis's soul remains intact."

As soon as Typhon saw the skull, a look of pain that could not be hidden suddenly appeared on his face: "Oh, my poor daughter, it was all me who harmed you!"

He immediately took the white jade skull in his hand and carefully poured divine power into it.

But Mrs. Alandis said: "Father, this has nothing to do with you. It's all my own choice to get to this point. You don't have to blame yourself."

Typhon shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, no, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have agreed to your marriage in the first place."

She was interrupted by Mrs. Alantis mid-sentence.

"Father! I said, this has nothing to do with you, this is my own choice! I have never regretted it!"

Typhon immediately shut up, but the pain in his eyes became even stronger. He couldn't help raising his hand, inserting his fingers into his white hair, and clutching his head tightly.

After holding on for more than ten seconds, his expression returned to calm.

"But no matter what, I am very happy to see you, my daughter, alive."

He looked up at Rosen again: "Mr. Rosen, you saved my daughter, so I owe you a huge favor."

"I don't know how to repay you at the moment, so I'll keep it in mind for now. If you need help one day, just come to me directly and I will do my best."

Rosen did not expect that the medium-sized god he rescued would have such a huge harvest, and he was very happy. However, facing a powerful god, he did not dare to be arrogant, so he responded respectfully.

"Great One, this is what I should do, you don't have to take it to heart."

As soon as he finished speaking, a fiery red light lit up on the first chair on the right side of the Queen's throne with swords crossed on the back, and a deep voice came out at the same time.

"Young people don't have to be modest. This is not a small matter. I also want to thank you for saving my daughter-in-law."

Rosen followed the sound and saw a red-haired middle-aged man with an extremely strong build and an extremely capable temperament.

As soon as he appeared, people felt a strong breath of blood and fire, as if the dark clouds of war were right in front of them.

Obviously, this is the God of War Aranza.

From Desiya's introduction, Rosen knew that the war god's divine power level was as high as 7.9, just shy of reaching level 8. He was also the third most powerful god in the Kingdom of God.

After he appeared, Rosen could vaguely feel that the Alchemist Lord's temperament had become much more restrained, and the pain and dissatisfaction on his face was completely hidden.

His heart moved: "There are differences in status between gods and nobles."

At the same time, he also felt Aranza's gaze, with a hint of aggressive scrutiny, as if he wanted to see Rosen through.

Facing this powerful God of War, Rosen became more and more respectful.

"Salute to you, great one. I was able to successfully rescue Mrs. Alantis. My own ability only accounted for a small part. It was mainly due to the pioneers, especially the important information you brought back, that allowed me to find her. Van Delon’s fatal flaw.”

Aranza did have some grudges against Rosen's success.

Originally, given his temperament, he didn't care about this matter, but he actually admired Rosen's methods.

But there are rumors in the Chinese market that the God of War is not worthy of his name, and his methods are not as good as those of a medium-level god.

Anyone who heard these words felt disgusted, and their impression of Rosen was not very good either.

But when I saw Rosen's humble look, my dissatisfaction dissipated a lot. I felt that this young god was not as arrogant as the legend said, but was actually very sensible.

Aranza is also a proud character, and will not take advantage of anything that is not her own merit.

"You captured Van Delon, and you took back the Dragon Blood Continent. Your contribution is still the greatest, there is no doubt about this."

Rosen said again: "It all depends on the help of all the great people."

As soon as he finished speaking, an extremely deep ball of pure black light appeared on the first throne on the left side of the Queen's throne. After a moment, the ball of light unfolded and turned into a figure with black hair and snow-skinned body, wearing a dark gauze skirt, with a mysterious and deep temperament. Beautiful girl.

As soon as she appeared, she smiled and said: "It seems that Mr. Rosen is very self-aware and knows that victory obtained by using illegal magic is not a true glory."

The visitor is the Lord of the Night, Menels, with an astonishing 8.7 level of divine power. She is also the second most powerful god in the Earth Kingdom, second only to the Queen of the Earth.

She admires the color black. On her snow-white face, those black eyes are darker than the deepest night. They can't see the bottom at all, and naturally they can't understand her thoughts at all.

This goddess is as mysterious as night and as powerful as the omnipresent night.

Naturally, Rosen would not refute the words of an eighth-level powerful god, and immediately said: "Great man, you are right, the victory obtained by using illegal magic is not worth boasting at all, and even from a certain perspective, it is a shame. .”

I was a little worried in my heart: ‘This goddess of the night seems to have a problem with me. ’

A powerful god of level 8.7 is not far away from the highest level of 9. If he is unhappy with this, it will be a big trouble.

Fortunately, his deferential attitude seemed to be having an effect.

Meniles' expression seemed to soften a little, and she smiled.

"The fact that you can think this way means that you are still somewhat sensible, and you are not one of those hopeless fools who only pursue power but don't care about the consequences."

As he spoke, figures appeared one after another on the other three empty thrones.

They are respectively the level 7.5 God of the Brilliant Sun, Shiloh, the level 7.2 Goddess of Natural Balance, Heisi, and the level 7.1 God of Brilliant Stars, Staven.

Compared to the Goddess of Night and the God of War, the momentum of these three gods was obviously much weaker. After they appeared, they did not express any opinions and just nodded slightly to Rosen.

But there are differences.

The goddess of natural balance had a smile on her face, but the other two gods had indifferent expressions.

After saying hello, the three gods sat on the throne in silence.

After the six god-lords arrived, half a minute later, a deep golden light flashed slightly on the Queen's throne. In the blink of an eye, the Queen of Earth had already appeared on the throne.

Compared with yesterday's homely dress, today she is wearing a formal black gold dress, wearing a black gold earth crown on her head, and holding an exquisite scepter with black gold light and shadow and a material similar to topaz in her hand.

The solemn and splendid dress, coupled with the majestic and gorgeous makeup, completely dispelled the delicate atmosphere of the queen's face, showing the true majesty of the supreme emperor.

After she appeared, the six great lords all stood up and saluted the Queen, saying "Your Majesty."

The Queen stretched out her hand and pressed down gently: "All you great men, please sit down."

After the gods sat down, they formed a semicircle of seats, and they all looked down at Rosen, who was standing alone in the middle of the meeting hall.

Rosen felt as if he was a prisoner, and sitting in front of him were a group of justices, who were preparing to read out the verdict of the trial to him.

The psychological pressure was great.

Having said that, the attitude of the top leadership of the Earth Kingdom towards Rosen can indeed greatly affect his fate.

Whether it develops smoothly or moves forward in a bumpy and bumpy way has a lot to do with today's 'trial outcome'.

The Queen of Earth was the first to speak: "Rosen, there are two topics today. One is about the victory of the Dragon Blood Continent, and the other is the application of a brand new magical technique."

"The former is an established fact and is very important to the residents of the Dragon Blood Continent, but when it is magnified to the entire Earth Divine Kingdom, it is just a trivial matter."

"The latter is the major event that truly affects the Divine Kingdom of Earth and even the fate of all beings in the Eight Realms."

"Today we will start with the small ones and then the big ones. Let's briefly discuss the rewards for victory."

Speaking of this, the queen looked around at the six god-lords.

"Let me first tell you my opinion on this matter."

"First of all, this victory is indeed a powerful counterattack against Tiamat, and it also allows the gods of the eight realms to see the power of our earth kingdom. This is good."

"Secondly, although victory is good, the means by which it is achieved are somewhat disgraceful."

"During this process, Rosen used some illegal magical techniques on a large scale, and the effects of these magical techniques played an indispensable role in this victory."

"And this has always been prohibited because it may affect the security of the entire Eight Realms."

"However, Rosen is a young new god who doesn't know much about the rules of the divine world, especially the Earth Divine Kingdom. His original intention was to save the Dragon Blood Continent, and he voluntarily gave up the competition for the Logic God's Throne in order to use The price of illegal magic.”

"So, my personal opinion is that the rewards and punishments for this victory cancel each other out. There is no reward, but there is no punishment."

"What do you think, great ones?"

According to the procedure, the next step is the decision-making process of the gods.

There are two ways to reach consensus.

For general issues, a first-vote system is adopted.

For issues that are related to the direction of the Kingdom of the Earth and involve the fundamental interests of every god, a one-vote veto system is adopted.

Therefore, the Queen emphasized again: "Please note that this is just a common issue."

It means a winner-take-all system.

This is natural, after all, Rosen is only a mid-level god now, and the victory of the Dragon Blood Continent is only a victory in a small battle in the context of the entire Earth Divine Kingdom.

Aranza had a good impression of Rosen. He was also a straightforward character, so he nodded: "I agree with your majesty's solution."

When he said this, the Alchemist Lord Typhon also nodded: "I have no objection."

The goddess of the night, Menels, smiled: "Your Majesty, by saying no rewards and no punishments, do you mean that you don't admit victory, but you still admit that Rosen is a contender for the throne of logic?"

The Queen of Earth shook her head: "No, Rosen has voluntarily given up the competition, so he is no longer a competitor for the throne."

Menairs spread her hands to express her objection.

"Your Majesty, that's not fair."

"Since victory is not rewarded, it means that this victory does not exist, and because the use of illegal magic does not exist, then Rosen does not need to give up the competition, right?"

Rosen was a little stunned when he heard this, and he couldn't figure out what Menairs was thinking.

Just now, she was criticizing him for illegally casting spells, but suddenly, she started to speak for him again.

You can't touch the other party's context at all.

The Queen of Earth calmly asked, "So, your proposal is to restore Rosen's qualification to compete for the throne of logic?"

Menels nodded: "From a fair point of view, that's true."

"From a personal perspective, I also hope that Rosen will join the competition for the Logic God's Throne. After all, he is the only young true god who has completely defeated the Dark God's attempts over the years."

"Although he used many illegal methods, he would never be able to defeat Tiamat by relying on illegal methods alone. The legal magic he used was also extremely outstanding."

"Especially when facing the fierce counterattack of the True God of Darkness in the end, using medium divine power to fight against two powerful divine powers and achieving complete victory is enough to be called a legend."

After hearing this, Rosen understood a little bit and thought to himself: "This is obviously a double act. The Queen must have communicated with Menairs in private and reached some kind of deal."

Seeing the Queen working so hard to help him regain his right to compete, Rosen felt a little ashamed, feeling that he had really let down her kindness before.

On the other side, after Menairs said this, the Queen of the Earth turned to look at the gods: "Ms. Meniles' statement is not unreasonable. I neither support nor object to this. What do you think?"

The Alchemist Lord Typhon naturally saw what the Queen meant. He was already grateful to Rosen for rescuing his daughter, so he immediately said: "I agree with Menairs' statement."

Look at the other four god-lords.

The Lord of War shrugged: "Okay, I agree. Who asked this kid to rescue my daughter-in-law?"

Although he said this, his tone was somewhat reluctant, as if he didn't want to see Rosen become the God of Logic.

Rosen thought for a moment and roughly guessed what he was thinking.

Probably because he is so good at fighting. If he becomes a god, it will threaten his status to some extent.

Rosen thought to himself: 'Before I gain superior strength, I must remain respectful so as not to irritate the war god's pride. ’

Now, three god-lords have nodded, and the Queen's attitude is obviously biased towards the former. Among the remaining three god-lords, the God of the Brilliant Sun and the God of the Brilliant Stars have both abstained.

Rosen's heart moved slightly when he saw it: "Abstaining means that you don't support me. But why don't you support me?"

After thinking about it, there is only one possibility. These two gods should be optimistic about other candidates.

In this way, these two god-lords are potential troubles for him, so he must be careful.

Finally, a goddess of natural balance remains.

Her name is Cloris, with level 7.2 divine power. She is the second weakest god. She is blond and blue-eyed. She wears a wreath of flowers on her head and a long dress with green leaves. The flowers on the skirt sometimes bloom and sometimes gather into buds.

She is obviously a powerful god, but she looks like a beautiful girl who has grown up.

She smiled and said: "Mr. Rosen, I appreciate your compassion for mortals, and I also think that your act of saving the creatures of the Dragon Blood Continent is a great feat. However, your attitude towards illegal magic that destroys the balance is too casual, which makes I am afraid of you."

"So, I would like to ask Mr. Rosen a question first."

Rosen then acted like he was listening carefully.

Cloris asked: "Which do you think is more important, life or balance?"

"Please note that I need to listen to the truth, because I will always observe your every move and can easily tell the truth from your actions."

Obviously, this god of natural balance is a potential ally, but if he doesn't do well, he can also become an enemy.

The alliance between gods is about emotions as well as ideas.

If the ideas are different, no matter how deep the relationship is, they will eventually break up.

Therefore, Rosen's best way to respond to the problem of the Natural Balance God is to respond with his heart.

If you can get their recognition, it will be a great thing. If you can't, you can't force it.

So he answered without hesitation: "I think life is more important."

Cloris blinked: "Oh~ This is different from what I thought. I can hardly help but oppose you, but I still hope to hear your reasons."

Rosen expressed his true thoughts: "Because without the natural balance of life, it is like a scale without a weight on one end, which is meaningless."

Cloris was preparing a long speech to debate with Rosen. The arguments were ready, and he said that balance is the way to long-term development, and for long-term development, a little sacrifice is inevitable.

Therefore, you must not use illegal magic just to save people.

But when I suddenly heard this sentence, I was startled for a moment, and then sighed: "Mr. Rosen's logic is indeed impeccable and rigorous."

She couldn't refute Rosen's words because she herself agreed with them.

She looked at the Queen: "I agree with Ms. Menairs' proposal."

The Queen nodded: "Then the proposal is approved. Rosen is still one of the candidates for the Logic Throne, but the results of this trial in the Dragon Blood Continent are invalid and will be made up for in the future."

"Naturally, the treatment you receive as a candidate will return, so, Rosen, you are still the manager of the Triangle Valley."

Rosen saluted the Queen of Earth again and said seriously: "Thank you for your majesty's tolerance and kindness. I will not let you down."

A faint smile appeared in the Queen of Earth's eyes, and then her expression became solemn: "What follows is the real core of this discussion, and it is also the biggest reason why I call you all to come together to make a decision."

"Attention, this time, it is a major issue."

Having said this, she looked at Rosen: "Mr. Rosen, please show all the great ones your latest magical achievements."
