Pivot of the Sky

Chapter 235: The Heart of the Emperor

In the Barron Palace, Amon met Hammurabi II on the sickbed. The old king was almost eighty years old. He used to be very rich, but now he is very thin. His cheeks and chin are pulled with folds, his eye sockets are deep, and his cheekbones and forehead have an abnormal red luster.

As soon as he saw this gloss, Amon knew that the person had already fallen ill. He might have died a long time ago when he was replaced by an ordinary person. He has been relying on various blessings performed by priests to maintain it. But the magical power of magic is just to adjust a person's physical functions to the best state. When these functions have been exhausted, even the clever blessing of the magical master is powerless.

Hammurabi II was in a state of half-sleep and half-coma, lying there with his mouth half open and panting, but seemed to be struggling for something. When Amon walked in, he suddenly opened his closed eyes, and there was a strong lustre of **** in his cloudy eyes, his shoulders and elbows moved, as if trying to get out of bed.

The priests guarding around the sickbed exclaimed, "Your Majesty is awake!"

Amon said softly, "Your Majesty, you don't have to sit up." With a flick of his finger, the abnormal red halo on Hammurabi II's face disappeared, and the pale gray color was restored, but his The sage was completely awake and was able to speak clearly.

Hamorabi II lying in the bed with an old voice said in a sincere and terrified voice: "God, please forgive me for being rude, the disease afflicts me, like a snake biting my body. I have felt the poison spread to Every corner, can't stand up and kneel before your feet. Thank you for coming here in person, I pray for your blessing!

With all things changing, the trees with yellow leaves in autumn seem to be dead in winter, but when the earth comes back to spring, it can regain its vitality. It is said that this is the divine power of the gods to awaken all things, god, please give me this divine power, I will always be your slave. "

Amon guessed right before coming, and Hammurabi II prayed to the gods to bring him back to life and restore the vitality of life. When Amon walked in, everyone in the room except the king had already kneeled at him, including Prince Feng New and the chief high priest of the kingdom. The high priest's expression was a little hesitant, but seeing Prince Feng New as well, he had to follow his knees and salute.

Amon said nothing, reached out and pointed at the king on the sickbed, and a light layer of Jinhui enveloped the body of Hammurabi II. The king's face returned to normal blood, and he miraculously found himself rejuvenated in an instant, as if returning to the youngest and strongest time of his life. His surprise was indescribable, and he got up and jumped out of the bed, kneeling in front of Amon and shouting with excitement: "Thank you, the omnipotent god! You have given me a new life ! "

Other people in the room saw the scene in shock and beyond description. No one has heard of any emperor who can be brought back to life since ancient times, but God Amon beckoned, and he really gave the dying Hanmorabi II to life. In particular, Prince Feng Niu's look was very complicated, and he was shocked with an expression of confusion or regret.

However, Amon shook his head and said, "The trees are alternately withered and glorious, and there is also a truly withered day. The leaves that germinate each spring are not the leaves that landed last year. Human life will eventually end, and the soul may be another The way is new, but it's not you, Your Majesty! I'm not giving you a new life, you feel full of power at the moment, that's my gratitude, supporting me with my divine power. "

Amon did not bring Hammurabi II back to life, he just cast a kind of divine magic "Guardian of Isis". . During the "question of destiny, the judgment of the last days", the tears of the gods passed down from the past maidens of the Temple of Isis have been merged with the singular refinement of Amen's body and mind. Although he will not only be able to cast "Blessing of Isis", but when performing another type of magic, "Guardian of Isis", he is more intelligent than any magician in the world.

Amon supported Hammurabi II with his own divine power, allowing him to regain the vitality of the youngest and strongest in this life, and also inspired the last potential in his life, the soul became sober and comfortable. But Amon couldn't stand here forever and shroud the golden light that belonged to him. As soon as he left, the king would fall again.

The deep disappointment flashed in the eyes of Hammurabi II, and then replaced by a stronger expectation. He knelt down on the ground and raised his head and said, "Oh god, since you have such power, I Is it possible to ask you to protect me like this and keep me full of youthful vitality. "

Amon asked blankly, "Her Majesty, you asked me to be blessed, and you said my wish will always be my slave. I bless you and let you get up from the sickbed before you die, but you ask me again With such a request. Wouldn't it be your eternal slave to lay my brilliance on you forever? Even the empire on the mainland could not remain strong forever, let alone the life of an emperor? "

The king's demands were excessive, and the gods were clearly unhappy. Hammurabi II bowed his head and said, "God, please forgive me! Can I ask you another thing, in this post-mortem world, can the soul enjoy peace and happiness forever?"

Amon replied: "You might as well say your wish directly and think of another world to be king, but I want to ask you another question, if the kingdom of another world really exists, you see your grandfather Han Moraby I, and Baron's previous kings, who can enjoy the glory of that monarch, is it you? So the world you expect does not exist.

I can answer your question. Your dead soul will be picked up by Anunaki ’s Hades, allowing Hades to hear the voice of your prayers and petitions, and draw what she wants in the soul imprint of your life, and you will Staying in the instant darkness seems to be eternal. The soul may have a new life, but that does n’t make sense to you, it ’s just that you make sense to it, understand? "

Hammurabi II did not understand, raised his head and asked: "Newborn? I want to pray for a newborn. Who will I be?"

Amon issued a helpless sigh: "The so-called new life is not you! When autumn leaves decay in the dust, the dust will become fertile and nourish the trees to sprout in the spring. That is another creature. You may understand this .If you must ask who it is, there is no way for the gods to decide. Maybe it is just such a creature. If this bird was an emperor, does it make sense to you? "

Amon reached out and pointed at a parrot in a bird cage hung next to the palace door, asking the king in front of him meaningfully. The king looked at the bird cage and froze, his lips squirming slightly, wondering what to say.

Amon turned around and walked outside the palace door, slowly said, "You may own this kingdom, it may seem logical, but you take it for granted. But have you ever wondered why you should always enjoy it all? Ask the others in the world, maybe you can be them, they can be you too. In the golden light I gave you, spend the last youthful night in my life, this is the gift I give you. "

After saying this, Amon's body disappeared in front of the palace door, and Han Morabi II kneeling there was still wearing a touch of Jinhui. ...... The next morning, King Hammurabi II of Barron died, and the nation's mourning was followed by a nationwide celebration, the king's death, and the new king Feng Niu I's succession.

On the same day that Hammurabi II died, another emperor fell on the Tianshu continent. The city accompaniment of the Assyrian Empire ’s new companion, the city-state of the Assyrian Empire, announced that the invincible Assyrian Emperor Sinah had severely damaged God Amon in the battle, but was unfortunately seriously injured by the evil **** and finally died.

Sinagh could have survived and died at any time, depending only on when Samir decided to stop guarding his blessings, and the day finally came.

Lord Faust, the sage master, read Sinacher's will in public as the chief priest of the empire, passing the throne to his beloved queen of his life, and accompanied him to set up countless feats on the battlefield. As for the stunner who could not speak or move, whether or not he could leave such a will was clear, but Lord Faust's words were a sign of the emperor.

Is Samir really his favorite queen? Not long ago, the emperor had to marry another queen, Princess Xiao Qian, who was assassinated during the wedding ceremony. This is really a great irony. It is also possible that Sinach had regrets before he died, and felt that Semir was the one he really deserved to entrust. In any case, Semir became the real queen!

In fact, this will was just the icing on the cake. During this time, Samir regent as the queen, had control of the frontline military forces, and at the same time received the support of the clergy led by Faust. The queen became the queen, and there was not no opposition in the country. The noble group had another proposal to support the regency of Semir, but Lisinach ’s only three-year-old son was the new emperor. This proposal was only accepted by Sinach ’s “will "Rejected.

There are also aristocratic forces taking the opportunity to attack Samir. Since it is impossible to deny Sinacher's will, he will take the assassination of Sinacher as an essay. Among them, the Minister of the Interior of the Empire, who hurried from Neville to Reese- Mantian is the representative. The Mantian family is a great nobleman of the Assyrian Empire. There are many local officials and generals who came from this family. They have inextricable relationships with various forces in North Korea. Lowall is also the highest status in this family. Imperial officer.

Luo Huayi's grandfather was once the Assyrian Prime Minister. After his death, Alpha, another representative of the noble family, was re-used as the Prime Minister by Sinacher. The two families had the upper hand in the battle. Now, with such a big change in the Assyrian Empire, all kinds of battles have begun.

Luo Huadi did not openly question the legality of Semir to become the empress. In the first meeting of Semir who convened the companion ministers, Luo Huadi made a generous statement and delivered a speech: In order to maintain the glory of the empire, Make revenge for Sinach! But the murderer is God Amon. Where can I find it?

There are two measures that can be taken. One is the imperial high priest Faust praying to Enlil on behalf of the empire, asking the great gods to punish the evil gods in another country. Occupy the land of that city-state and turn its inhabitants into slaves of the empire.

The army generals who led the army to capture the six city-states of the Barron Kingdom and opened up the *** realm were all present, but they did not want to take over the job. Launching an expedition over the arduous Assyrian Plateau is itself unsatisfactory, and the non-combat losses in the march are very large. Now that they have achieved fame, they have a lot of wealth, territory and slaves. Who wants to take this risk and suffer this sin?

The battle between Enril and Salem has shown that this battle is definitely not easy to fight. The giant legion has almost half of its casualties. Unless the other four elite legions of the empire are sent to the past, it must be equipped with more than usual. A logistical team that is several times larger would be difficult to win. If you must fight, it's best to send someone else.

The generals thought so, but no one could say it. Luo Huayi's words were grand and righteous, and on the surface, even Samir could not refute it. This was the first problem she encountered immediately after she took power. How to face this kind of questioning and how to avenge Sinach the Great? If she does not accept Luo Huayi's suggestion and takes persuasive measures sufficiently, I am afraid that the prestige will be greatly affected, and the emperor may not be stable.

The ministers looked at the queen on the throne with all their hearts, and Samir looked like water, but could not see any response. When Luo Huayi finished speaking, the adults had to express their support, lest they seemed to be not loyal to the empire. Queen Semir nodded her head and said, "Master Luo Huayi, I would like to thank you for your dedication to the empire. You deserve the award."

Samir ordered on the spot to reward Luo Huayi with a new territory and hundreds of slaves, which seemed to be a comfort or compromise. Luo Hua thanked the reward and said, "Her Majesty, I don't want these rewards, but I ask the empire not to forget the hatred of Emperor Sinach and the glory we guard. How do you intend to destroy the temple of Amon? "

Semir replied eagerly: "The war with the Kingdom of Barron has just subsided, and the vast territory it has occupied needs to be consolidated. The current four corps cannot adjust the expedition. But Lord Luohua's proposal must also be considered, saying I know more about the war with Salen than everyone here, because I and the Master of the Sage both went to the battlefield in person.

At that time we lost the battle, and Salem was just a terrible victory. Their losses were even worse than Enril. The empire's most elite giant army has already been sent to the Duke Plains. If it can restore its peak combat effectiveness, it will definitely be able to conquer Salem and even conquer the entire Duke Plains. The other four corps attacked the Barron kingdom and achieved such brilliant results. Why can't our most elite giant corps?

At present, the two most important things are confidence and strength! As for confidence, we have already seen that Lord Luo Huayi is full of confidence in the victory of Enril, then the rest is strength. From a strategic point of view, the first is the need to organize more adequate logistical support, and the second is to organize the army to make up for the loss of the Giant Corps. I have appointed the most loyal and talented Minister of the Empire, Luo Huayi, as the city's owner, to take revenge on Her Majesty Sinacher!

Lord Luohua, I will send Faust, the most powerful theologian of the empire, to Enril with you and give you full power to organize logistics and recruit troops in the Assyrian Empire to expand Enril's power. . My mood is the same as yours. I even imagined going to the battlefield in person like that at first, but I had no choice but to worry about more things for the entire empire, so I entrusted you with this great event! "

The Empress made such a decision, sending a civilian to the military in Enril! The ministers' reactions were mixed. Some people couldn't shut up in surprise, while others wanted to laugh and hold back. Luo Huaxi himself was on the spot. He never expected that Semir would let himself take the lead instead of sending another legion of condemning the empire. He wanted to excuse him without excuses—it was his favorite, not sending him Who is it sent to?

The minister who saw the opportunity immediately praised Her Majesty's wise decision and praised Luo Hua's loyalty and courage at the same time, and then everyone agreed. Luo Hua had to go if he didn't want to go. He had built such a high step for himself. Now he can't go up or down.

Replenishing the troops of the Giant Corps and organizing logistical reinforcements require the assimilation of manpower and material resources from Assyria, and whoever does this will definitely violate the interests of a group of people. It's easy to let others do it, but if you want to do it yourself, it will definitely be difficult. It would be okay to say that if you can win a full victory in the Duke Plains and get enough benefits, but if you fail or win a miserable victory, you will definitely lose more than you gain.

Now that Luo Huan was in trouble with this incident, Semir was very straightforward and sent him to the front. Can he be a civilian in the Ministry of the Interior, who can command the army? In fact, on the battlefield, the real leader of the army is the Philistine of the Giant Regiment. Luo Huayi can really be responsible for the most headache of logistics and livelihood security. As for the military and political power, he could not control it, because Semir sent Faust.

At this time, it may not be appropriate to send the chief high priest of the empire to a distant front line, but Faust himself was not good to oppose, because he and the queen were sent there before the collapse of Sinacher. Temporarily presided over the ceremony of registering the new queen, Faust was temporarily called to the city of Rees. Now that Sinacher was dead, Semir became the queen, and it was logical for him to return to continue Sinacher's order.
