Start with Island Lord

The meeting hall deep in the base.

After thoroughly confirming the monarch and his subjects, the two began to discuss the specific trapping plan.

Rosen asked: "So, how can we turn these rebellious Dawn Guards?"

Tira Lilin was well prepared and took out a square rune artifact.

"Use our 12-ring guards to defeat them and reset the internal puppet spirits. And this is the reset artifact I made."

She handed the artifact to Rosen.

Rosen took it and examined it carefully, and found that the structure was extremely complex, and the core also involved a lot of detailed knowledge of time spells, which made him frown slightly.

He could roughly understand other things, but the knowledge of time spells was beyond his knowledge boundary.

So, this artifact was in a state of substantial out-of-control.

The out-of-control of the artifact means that the Dawn Guards are also at risk of out-of-control.

But the power of the Dawn Guards is very strong. Once out of control, it will directly rewrite the fate of the empire.

No emperor would allow such a big uncertainty factor to exist in his own camp, because this war is tied to the fate of hundreds of millions of citizens.

So he asked: "Does the puppet spirit also need to use time magic?"

Tira Lilin nodded: "Doing this is to defend against the opponent's time magic. Second, it is to greatly improve the reaction speed of the Dawn Guard."

She explained in detail: "The greatest combat advantage in the world is speed, so the second effect is particularly important."

"The spell that achieves this is called "Time Torrent", which can increase the reaction speed of the Dawn Guard by a full order of magnitude."

"Time Torrent."

Rosen repeated the word softly, and yearned for the powerful power of time magic more and more, so he asked: "Ms. Tira Lilin, is there any way to let me get the time talent?"

The time talent is very wonderful, and it seems to be a power at the subatomic level.

It cannot be observed by the Natural Scepter at all, and naturally it cannot be studied, let alone copied.

And this is not the first time he asked this question, and the reason why he asked it the second time is because Tira Lilin's power has increased and she has gained new memories.

After a long deliberation, Tiralilin gave a different reply than the last time.

"Your Majesty, the principle of time magic is extremely complicated. Even I myself cannot figure out the source of this power. I can only classify it as a gift from the Creator."

"But according to my new memory, I found that there is a way to transfer or share the gift of the Creator."

Rosen was very interested and raised his eyebrows: "Tell me about it."

"We will connect our souls and conduct deep soul resonance in the time frequency domain."

"If you are lucky enough, then the time talent in my soul may be imprinted into your Majesty's soul through resonance."

Rosen understood.

In fact, he had experienced a similar soul connection before, which was in the Republic of Nahuat, with the guardian magician Alena. Afterwards, some uncontrolled memory transfer occurred between the two sides.

But now listening to Tiralilin's description, this should be a one-way transmission, so he was immediately very excited.

"How high is the probability of success?"

"It's hard to say, because the time talent is very precious, so this kind of resonance transfer is rarely carried out."

"In the entire history of the Dawn Empire, it has only happened 206 times, and only 11 times were successful in the end, and the effect was not very good, only allowing the sharer to get the basic time talent."

In other words, the success rate is about 5%, which is not high, but not low.

"Can it be done many times, or only once?"

"It can be done many times, but if it fails once, it will probably not succeed again if it is done many times."

Rosen understood and asked again: "Are there any side effects?"

Tila Lilin shook her head: "It's just a matter of luck, there is no perceptible side effect. Your Majesty, do you want to try it?"

Rosen certainly wants to try it.

Tira Lilin said: "First of all, we need an absolutely quiet secret room, without any interference from magic, not even the slightest fluctuation of the magic ring."

Rosen didn't know how high the requirement for absolute silence was, so he asked directly: "Is there a place in the base that meets the requirements?"

"There is a ready-made place, which is the Dawn Guard's protection cabin. Of course, that place is a little crowded."

It is indeed a bit crowded, but barely acceptable.

The most important thing is that time is very tight now. There are only a few days left before the opening of the Gate of Creation. There is no time to build such a high-demand quiet room.

"If it doesn't affect the resonance ceremony, then the protection cabin?"

Tira Lilin didn't care: "As you wish, Your Majesty."

Soon, the two moved to the Dawn Guard's protection cabin and activated the guard's ring wall shield, so the protection cabin became very, very quiet, and no magic fluctuations could be felt.

The protection cabin was also very crowded. Because of the need for soul connection, the two had to sit face to face in a narrow space.

After squeezing a few times, Tiralilin said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, I hope you can keep your mind calm."

Now it's time to get down to business, so Rosen naturally won't be idle: "Wait a moment, it will naturally calm down."

So the two began to sit face to face in meditation.

They sat for 20 minutes.

The first ten minutes were to wait for Rosen to calm down, and the last ten minutes were to wait for Tiralilin to calm down.

Because this sage in front of the emperor was deeply disturbed by the divine spear.

After 20 minutes, Tiralilin breathed a sigh of relief.

"Next, our souls will be connected together. This is not an ordinary connection, but a connection unique to the Dawn Empire."

"You say, I do."

Tiralilin began to guide the connection. She said one sentence, and Rosen followed one sentence.

About a quarter of an hour later, Rosen felt that his soul and Tiralilin's soul were tightly entangled, like two tightly entangled double helix gene chains.

In this state of connection, the souls of both parties are almost completely indistinguishable from each other.

Rosen could clearly feel the thoughts emerging from the depths of Tiralilin's soul, just like bubbles emerging from the bottom of a clear pool.

I believe that the other party is in roughly the same state when looking at himself.

But the strength of the connection is still limited.

Each other is still an independent individual. They can only see the thoughts generated, but cannot see the specific content of the thoughts, let alone the situation in the depths of the other party's soul.

This is good. Rosen doesn't have to worry about the exposure of Lai Fu in the deepest part of his soul.

After a while, Tiralilin's thoughts came over: "Now, Your Majesty, don't have any thoughts. I will also try my best to keep my mind absolutely quiet."

Rosen did as he was told.

So, the 'bubbles' in the clear pool water gradually disappeared until it was completely calm.

Following this, the soul resonance of the time frequency domain appeared.

'Ding~~Ding~~Ding~~~'

Just like the sound of a bell telling the time, it was thick and magnificent, ringing in Rosen's soul one by one.

As the sound of the soul with this strange frequency continued to vibrate, Rosen felt some subtle changes in his soul.

He immediately realized that he had won a bet and won a 5% chance of success.

This made him happy, but he immediately suppressed his joy and continued to maintain a state of no thoughts and no ideas.

'Ding~~Ding~~Ding~~'

In the 'bell sound', changes were taking place little by little.

After about an hour and a half, everything stabilized and no new changes occurred.

After about a quarter of an hour, the voice of Tiralilin's soul came over: "Your Majesty, congratulations, you have been favored by the Creator."

The voice was slightly happy, and it was obvious that she also hoped to resonate successfully.

Afterwards, she slowly untied the soul connection state.

After the connection was completely disconnected, Tiralilin raised her hand, and a twisted light ball like a glass bead appeared at her fingertips.

"Weak time lag ball, one of the simplest time spells, Your Majesty, give it a try."

Rosen nodded and began to cast the spell according to her instructions.

About a quarter of an hour later, a twisted light ball also appeared at his fingertips, but although the volume of this light ball was also the size of a glass bead, the specific time lag effect was very slight, far less than Tiralilin.

Tiralilin carefully sensed it and gave an evaluation.

"Your Majesty, your time talent is very weak. With the same time spell and the same power consumption, the final time spell is less than one-fifth of mine."

"I'm afraid your future development potential is also very low."

"If nothing unexpected happens, you can only master some simple and crude time spells such as time stagnation and rapids, and you may not be able to get involved in time spells that require subtle control, such as "insight, prophecy, time and space changes."

Rosen is not greedy: "This is enough."

What he fears most is that he can't even get in, and as long as he can get in, he should be able to find a way to improve.

Even if he can't improve, there is still a way to "break the trick with force".

"Now, let's continue talking about traps."

Tila Lilin twisted her body: "Your Majesty, don't you think it's crowded here?"

Rosen was in a good mood and immediately wanted to tease her, so he pushed forward, causing the latter to exclaim: "It's okay, at least you don't have to worry about being disturbed."

Tila Lilin adjusted her slightly crooked gold-rimmed glasses and whispered shyly: "Your Majesty, you don't want to have fun with me, do you?"

Rosen knew there was a play when he saw the other party's state. There was no one else here, so he asked directly: "Is it okay?"

Tila Lilin thought for a while and said: "Yes, but only you and I know, and it must not be known to a third person."

Rosen was surprised: "Madam, are you shy?"

He looked carefully, and in the dim light, Tila Lilin's face was indeed full of red, and her heartbeat was very rapid, and he immediately found it very interesting.

Who would have thought that the Seven Sages of the Dawn Empire would be shy about such a trivial matter?

Tiralilin whispered: "I spend all my time assisting Emperor Safinos to save the empire. The empire is collapsing day by day. Everyone is under great pressure. I wish I could use every second as a day, but I don't feel like being as dissolute as Your Majesty."

That's right. The emperor of the last empire wants to save the country. As a loyal minister, he must be under great pressure.

Rosen understood, but was a little surprised: "Then why do you want to relax now?"

Finding fun is a matter for both parties. If the other party doesn't want to, Rosen won't force it.

The current situation is that Tiralilin is obviously willing.

Tiralilin panted: "Because Your Majesty is strong enough, you won't keep sighing and asking me what to do when you encounter something."

Rosen understood.

Obviously, His Majesty Safinos did this, which brought great psychological pressure to Tiralilin, a scholar and mage, and naturally he didn't have the heart to play.

While the two were talking, Rosen had already skillfully put the sword back into the sheath, and the former royal sage holding the sheath suddenly found it difficult to bear the pressure, trembling violently, and breathing unevenly.

Rosen thought to himself: 'Hey~ This is even more vulnerable than the Banshee Queen Neferoniya. '

It is naturally impossible to talk about business in this situation, so Rosen focused on having fun.

They waited until the matter was over before officially discussing the plan to trap the betrayed Dawn Guard.

When the plan was discussed and they were about to leave the Dawn Guard protection cabin, Tiralilin suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the time talent is inherited, but the inheritance strength is random. The talent may be mediocre, but there may also be a world-class genius."

Rosen glanced at Tiralilin, only to see that her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were looking straight at him, obviously there was something behind her words.

As a flower walker, he could naturally hear the other party's underlying meaning, and smiled and said: "Obviously I am lucky. Otherwise, let's try our luck again, how about it?"

Tiralilin nodded slightly: "As you command, Your Majesty."
