In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

An obituary from the Glorious Empire reached the Natural Alliance.

The obituary was titled "The Empire's high-ranking glorious wizard Misai has unfortunately passed away, we express our condolences."

The content of the obituary was very obscure. Both the title of "high-level glorious wizard" and the name Misai were inconspicuous.

Therefore, apart from causing severe shocks in some small circles who knew the inside story, it did not attract much attention among the people of the alliance.

What really caused a huge sensation was another covenant that was released along with the obituary.

The covenant was signed by the Glorious Queen Zoya and the Natural Emperor Rosen, who had not yet been truly crowned, and was called the "Mortal Unity Covenant."

The core content of the covenant is that when dealing with alien enemies, the two mortal kingdoms, the Natural Empire and the Glorious Empire, will always fight side by side.

As the covenant was announced, the Glorious Empire also announced the withdrawal of 60% of its troops from the border Gothic Province, as well as the withdrawal of the First and Second Glorious Fleets that had been stationed near the Gilded Strait.

When the news of the covenant came out, Weilan was greatly shocked, and the entire natural alliance was also greatly shocked.

It's like a skinny guy is about to fight to the death with a super strong guy who rushes to his doorstep to challenge him.

The thin man had already taken up his stance, prepared to be severely beaten, seriously injured, or even to exchange his life for the other's, but just as he was about to throw a punch, the strong man took the initiative to retreat.

Ordinary people don’t know the inside story, they just know that they don’t have to fight on the battlefield anymore.

So people took to the streets, told each other the news and cheered loudly.

The people were particularly excited in Aaron, which was destined to become the main battlefield.

And Weilan, who was originally prepared to fight to the death, also decorated every household with lights and lanterns to celebrate the conclusion of the covenant.

Swan Lake.

In an inconspicuous lakeside villa, Rosen, Zigrailana, the Mighty Father, and their father-in-law and mother-in-law, whom they had never met, were having dinner in the restaurant.

The father-in-law and mother-in-law looked to be in their forties. They were submissive to the mighty Father and respectful to Rosen. They looked like a pair of honest people.

After Rosen paid his respects to him according to the etiquette of a junior, he began to tell him what happened in the Glorious Capital.

The Mighty Father Otar Gunther listened carefully.

After Rosen finished speaking, he swallowed the braised venison slices in his mouth, sipped his wine silently, and then sighed deeply.

"Fate is so strange. I never thought that Misa would die before me."

Then he looked at Rosen: "I didn't expect that he would be killed by you even though he was hiding in such a solid palace."

Rosen sighed with emotion: "The defense of the Glorious Palace is so tight that it would be difficult for me to break through it alone, even if I led a thousand-man army."

"The reason we were able to succeed was mainly due to the secret help of Queen Zhuoya. But even so, we almost failed."

Zigraina was curious: "My dear, how did you convince the Queen to help you?"

"One is the news of the return of the Lord of Truth. Second, it is because Misai is too overbearing and treats a talented granddaughter as a slave to be ordered around, which caused a huge backlash."

Ottar Gunther himself had once stood at the top of the world and knew that this must involve a lot of exchange of interests.

But now times have changed, and there are too many things he doesn't understand, so he is simply too lazy to ask more questions, let alone care more.

He sighed: "This old man Misai is too greedy. He wants to take all the good things for himself, but how can mortals like me have such a good ability?"

"It's what you deserve to end up like this!"

To this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Otargunther looked at Rosen again: "What happens next? Will the Glorious Empire really join us in fighting against the Lord of Truth?"

Rosen couldn't make any guarantees about this for the time being, because the restraints he had prepared for Zhuoya were not yet completed.

A covenant that is not bound by physical force and relies solely on moral constraints is only slightly better than a piece of waste paper.

Therefore, he could only give a less reliable response for the time being.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the Glorious Empire will be our ally at least until the Lord of Truth returns."

"As for how long this alliance can last, it depends on what the Lord of Truth plans to do after his return."

"If it is a tough confrontation strategy, then we and the Glorious Empire will be closer than we are now, but if it is a gentle and divisive strategy, then it is hard to say."

Otargunther nodded slowly: "If it was more than five thousand years ago, the Lord of Truth would definitely have put up a strong fight, but this time, I can't say for sure."

"After all, five thousand years is enough time to change the character of any life."

"But no matter what, the mortal kingdoms always survive with bumps and bruises, as long as their leaders are not crazy. When a strong enemy comes, they will always unite to face the enemy."

After saying this, the founder of the Deism religion completely put his worries to rest and took a sip of the crystal wine.

"What the world will be like in the future depends entirely on the efforts of young people like you. I will retire peacefully by this beautiful lake."

Now that his despicable old rival was gone, the tense nerves in his heart relaxed. He no longer wanted to rely on sleeping to prolong his life. He just wanted to spend the last hundred years of his life in peace.

Then he looked at Zigraina.

"I feel like my great-grandchildren are growing up, which is good, haha, very good."

Simply taking care of your elderly is also very boring, but if you have a few little ones to accompany you, life will be much more interesting.

At the same time.

Metasilin of the Glorious Empire.

The Queen's government study.

There was a small compartment in the study, and inside the compartment there was a secret passage leading to the underground palace.

To outsiders, Rosen basically stayed in this compartment, acting as the Queen's first guard, but in fact, he spent most of the day in the underground palace.

What are you doing?

Of course, it is to create a puppet of faith.

The level of magic in the Glorious Empire is quite high, and all kinds of magical materials are abundant, so Rosen can create the faith puppet very quickly and the quality is also very good.

It took more than half a month to create the puppet core, and the following days were basically spent piling up materials.

The entire construction process and subsequent maintenance process were done by Rosen alone, and only he could do it.

And according to him, only he can do it.

To this end, he proposed the concept of "true God".

He believed that the true God could not be seen by mortals. If seen, it would no longer be a god, and the fear of God in the hearts of mortals would disappear.

Without reverence, there is no faith, and without faith, the existence of the sect loses its meaning.

Zhuoya couldn't refute his statement.

It was obvious that she was very reluctant, but after Rosen's constant persuasion, she finally nodded.

And this puppet of faith is the biggest restraint Rosen uses to bind the Glorious Empire.

When the "Mortal Unity Covenant" was announced, the Queen took advantage of the opportunity and came to his cubicle.

In the small compartment, Rosen was sitting behind a desk, writing a book on refining equipment seriously. The title of the book was "Basic Principles of Faith Puppets".

This thing is real, and it is the biggest prerequisite for Zhuoya to agree to let him maintain the faith puppet.

Rosen saw through Zhuoya's idea at a glance. He just wanted to use his faith puppet first, and then do research on his own. Once he understood the research, he would make a local replacement.

In response, he secretly laughed in his heart: "If you want to replace it, you can, but let's develop it for 50 years first."

It is true that he shared the basic principles, but he did not share the specific techniques.

There is a huge gap between principle and technology.

He can move so fast because he has the development experience of the Earth to guide him, while the Glorious Empire has to rely entirely on its own exploration.

Back to the topic.

When he saw the queen, he handed the writing work to Lai Fu and kept moving his hands.

Seemingly trying to do two things at once, he said to the Queen, "Your Majesty, what is the matter?"

"I suddenly had an idea and wanted to discuss it with you."

In front of Rosen, the queen did not put on airs like the others. She leaned her back against the wall and stood with her legs propped up at an angle.

"You see, your ancestor, the Iron Dragon, actually moved out of this land, right?"

"Well, then what?"

"So compared to the Natural Alliance, you are closer to us in terms of blood relationship. We can even say that you are of the same race, right?"

"That's right."

"The situation is different now. I used to be my grandfather's tool, but now I am the real queen."

"As a queen, I cannot remain childless, so I need a husband, and you are suitable."

Rosen was a little surprised.

He raised his eyes to look at the queen, and saw that her cheeks were slightly red, but her eyes were firm. It was obvious that this was not the first day she had this idea.

So he reminded: "Your Majesty, I have to remind you that I have been in contact with Weilan during this period, and the unification process of the Natural Alliance has made a big step forward."

"In three years at most, the Natural Alliance will be unified in essence, and I will be the emperor of the Natural Emperors."

The marriage of two emperors was a major event that was enough to shock the world.

Zhuo Ya nodded: "I know, but emperors can get married. After marriage, they don't need to live together all the time. They can just manage their own country."

"After all, you don't need to be together all the time to have children, right?"

Rosen was also of noble birth and had received orthodox aristocratic education, so he understood what Zhuoya meant.

"It sounds great, but will the Glorious Family and the nobles in the country agree?"

This kind of major matter cannot be decided by one person alone.

If it causes widespread opposition, the elves may take advantage of the situation and cause great turmoil.

Zhuoya blinked and said, "I will naturally take the time to convince them. The key is, do you agree?"

Rosen smiled and said, "It is my honor to be favored by your majesty. Why should I refuse?"

He is a man, and marrying the empress is a form of external conquest. There is basically no resistance in the country, and people may even be proud of it.

In comparison, the resistance Zhuoya encountered was several orders of magnitude greater than his.

In fact, her idea really took Rosen by surprise.

So, Rosen added: "This is a big matter. We need to discuss the details carefully, especially the issue of succession to the throne."

Zhuo Ya had obviously thought about it carefully, and immediately said: "It's very simple. The children will inherit their mother's property. Your child with Zigrellana will inherit the Natural Throne, and my child will inherit the Glorious Throne."

"Well~~~it's simple and clear. I don't have any questions anymore."

After saying that, Rosen still felt a little unbelievable, and couldn't help asking: "Zhuoya, you were serious about what you just thought, right?"

He felt it was a bit too casual.

Zhuo Ya said seriously: "Of course it's true. I won't joke about such a big thing."

"Okay, so when are you getting married?"

"About one or two years. I need time to fully control the Glorious Empire, and I also need time to convince the people to agree with my approach."

"And you also need time to unify the Natural Alliance, don't you?"

"Indeed." Rosen nodded.

Zhuo Ya said, "Since both Zigrellana and I are your wives, you can't be biased towards the Natural Empire. You should at least treat us equally on the surface, right?"

That's fine. Rosen nodded: "Of course."

Of course, it is only equality on the surface.

After all, the Natural Empire was built by his hard work and is basically controlled by him, while the Glorious Empire is controlled by Zhuo Ya.

Finally, this is just a proposal at this point.

No one can say whether it will succeed in the end.

But then again, if it succeeds, then from the perspective of biological reproduction, Rosen will make a huge profit.

Because the royal families of the two great empires of the human race will all have his blood flowing.

In other words, his bloodline will enjoy the greatest glory in the world.

For a man, this is simply the highest level of success.

While I was thinking, I saw Zhuoya handing me a book: "This is for you."

"What?"

"What was found in the Shadowless Palace should be the reward for cooperation from the elves to my grandfather. It's called "The Art of Immortality."

"I have asked the Imperial Magic Department to study it and found that this spell is extremely difficult and there is absolutely no clue to crack it."

"I think you must be interested in it."

Rosen took the book and flipped through a few pages. He immediately became very interested: "Good stuff. I have to take a closer look."

I'm having a bit of a writer's block, so the next chapter will be a little late.
