Chapter 543 Top Secret and Promotion
An emergency meeting was immediately held in the palace. The attendees, including Menia, were all royal elders of the Dragun bloodline.
"I think we can hold the awarding ceremony for the new guardians in two days."
"Good suggestion. In this way, it will not be so abrupt to suddenly summon most of the imperial guardians back to the imperial capital." Elder Ivan nodded and said.
"But after the local imperial guardians leave, what should we do with the gap in the combat power of the major provinces? Those evil cults will definitely take advantage of the opportunity. Ordinary people are afraid." Another royal elder frowned.
"Now we can't take care of so many things. Let's choose the lesser of two evils." Elder Ivan sighed.
"I suggest that His Majesty Volkmas be recalled this time." At this time, Menia, who was in the main seat, spoke.
"His Majesty Volkmas? But if he leaves, what if there is any unusual movement on the part of Queen Trist of the Wind Peng?" Another royal elder asked back.
"I agree. We must learn from the last lesson. If we had recalled a strong man like His Majesty the Lord of Dawn last time, perhaps the result would be completely different." Elder Ivan supported.
"."
Half an hour later, the meeting ended.
A series of colorful witchcraft messages spread from the palace to all directions.
At the same time, as if to be on the safe side, a few minutes later, a large number of blood falcons and swifts carrying secret letters flew out of the palace again.
The content of the secret letter was only one sentence: "On the last Sunday of this month, a ceremony to award the new guardians of the empire will be held."
This was also discussed by the royal elders, and
it was the best reason for most of the imperial guardians to gather in the imperial capital of Tamriel two days later. Of course, this cover-up may not have much effect on the gods, but for some things, if the other party can know later, it means that the chances of winning will be increased.
Bixiu Construction School Station.
After a brief trial, Ryan was delighted to find that his progress in outlining the fifth-level model of the 'Heart of Steel' advanced meditation method had increased by three more runes, reaching 395 will runes.
This was the same as he had expected. The increase in the total amount of mental power was still very beneficial to the progress of the meditation method.
A few hours later,
Ryan had advanced the progress to 412 runes, and the subsequent improvement speed began to slow down again. He knew that the current level of improvement was close to the limit.
In other words, the benefits of taking the 'Super Wisdom Potion' were gradually exhausted at this moment.
"It's still the best to absorb the crystal of divine power."
Ryan couldn't help but sigh.
At this moment, suddenly, the communication mark on Ryan's chest flashed.
Ryan frowned as soon as he sensed it, and then immediately left the secret room and went to the palace.
Witchcraft communication is not absolutely safe, so Menia is now waiting for Ryan in an isolated secret room in the side hall of the palace.
Soon, Ryan came to the secret room under the guidance of the female attendant.
After the female attendant left, Ryan couldn't help asking:
"Menia, what's so urgent?"
"Ryan, there is one thing you need to pay special attention to, two days later." Menia told the story in detail.
After listening to Menia's words, Ryan's face was also solemn.
Ryan only then knew that the emperor's last attack on the demigod was interrupted by several gods at a critical moment, and he was not successful, and he was also seriously injured.
You know, the news he got before was not like this.
It seems that for the morale of the empire and the prestige of the royal family, the news that was spread out has been modified and processed. Although the emperor of the empire was also seriously injured in the news, the promotion failure was changed to promotion success.
"So, this time it is very likely that those gods will come again?" Ryan asked after thinking for a while.
Although Menia's consciousness had briefly merged into his body before, because the time was not long, Ryan only knew part of the secrets and knowledge that Menia mastered.
"Yes, this possibility is very high." Menia nodded and said.
"Menia, isn't it too hasty to say two days later? Why didn't His Majesty choose to be promoted when he was more fully prepared?" Ryan asked again.
"Because the strengthening of the energy tide has a much greater effect on the revival of the gods than the speed at which our strength is improved."
"Although the strengthening of the energy tide fluctuations will allow more powerful people to appear in the empire, it will take time."
"And time is not on our side."
"I understand." Ryan nodded.
"There is another question. I heard that the founding emperor of the empire, Atlas the Great, was a demigod-level powerhouse. Later, it seems that two other majesties also entered the demigod level. Where are they?"
This question lingered in Ryan's mind for a long time.
Of course, if it weren't for the special relationship between Menia and him, perhaps Ryan would not be able to find the right person to ask the answer to this question.
"Indeed, the three ancestors have successfully entered the demigod level, but it has been two thousand years since then. It happened to be not long after the empire was established, and they soon realized that the energy tide gradually dropped to the bottom of the fluctuation."
"Humans are not immortal and have a limited lifespan. Perhaps the gods and those ancient beasts can hide by sleeping, but humans can't."
"So, no matter how powerful the ancestors are, they can only find other ways. According to the royal secret records, the ancestors and the few remaining full moon wizards at that time went to other worlds."
"Other worlds?" Ryan opened his eyes slightly and said in shock.
Although Ryan had seen records and descriptions of other worlds in ancient books, he knew very well that the other worlds Menia was talking about were definitely not those other worlds such as the purgatory world and the demon world.
"Is it through a space channel somewhere?"
"No, according to the records, the original words of the ancestors are that only after being promoted to demigod can one perceive the existence of the constantly changing portal through the perception of the dark." Menia said slowly.
"Perceive the existence of the constantly changing portal through the perception of the dark?" Ryan couldn't help but frowned slightly.
If what the other party said is true, and there is no mistake in the record, then the content revealed in it is worth pondering.
"Could it be that this is also the reason why the gods have descended to incarnate and prevented your majesty from being promoted?"
"That's not very clear, maybe it is, or it may not be just because of this." Menia shook her head and said.
Ryan nodded, he could understand this.
Even though Menia is an important member of the royal family, he is not the emperor of the empire after all. It is normal for him not to understand some top secrets.
In addition, the information he learned today is enough.
"Ryan, if the situation is as serious as last time, I hope you can pay attention to your own safety." Menia looked at Ryan with a pair of beautiful eyes and said seriously.
"I will, Menia, and you too."
"By the way, this matter is currently top secret. Apart from the royal elders, even other imperial guardians do not know the details for the time being."
"Yeah."
Ryan left the side hall of the palace and returned home first to make some arrangements.
Fortunately, his mansion at this time was located in the third ring of the imperial capital, far away from the palace. Even in the last war, the main affected areas were only the palace and the inner ring.
The second ring was almost unscathed, not to mention the third ring.
However, Ryan still made some necessary preparations and reminders.
He told his family to try not to go out in the next two days. At the same time, he also set up a protective magic array in the mansion to defend against the impact of some battle aftermath.
"Ryan, will something happen?" The beautiful woman Jennifer seemed to feel something.
"Don't worry, it's just to be prepared."
Ryan promised Menia that he would not reveal this matter. In addition, for those whose strength has not reached the epic level, knowing in advance is not a good thing.
A few hours later, Ryan returned to the Bixiu Construction School again.
But this time, he did not enter the secret room, but came to the construction hall.
Looking at the tall mechanical Tyrannosaurus, a gleam of light flashed in Ryan's eyes.
"If it is true as Menia judged, the day after tomorrow will indeed be very dangerous, but at the same time, this is also my chance, it depends on whether I can grasp it."
After thinking about it, Ryan called Audrey and said:
"Audrey, how many rare ores are there in the school, help me gather them here."
At the same time.
Above the province of Caswith.
An old man riding on a huge blue dragon seemed to be inspecting the situation in the jurisdiction. Suddenly, the pattern on the chest of his wizard robe flickered slightly. As he pointed his finger, after listening for a while, he immediately showed a trace of doubt on his face.
However, a moment later, a dragon and a man flew rapidly towards the direction of the imperial capital Tamriel.
The giant wind roc nest deep in the Beverly Mountains.
Suddenly, the wind roc queen Beatrice raised her beautiful face and looked at the sky on one side with her beautiful eyes. She could clearly feel a familiar breath moving away quickly.
"Has Vokmas left?"
"It seems that the situation caused by the energy tidal fluctuations this time is extraordinary."
If you look down from a high altitude, you can see that above the clouds, a huge silver dragon is flying quickly towards the imperial capital. On the back of the silver dragon is an old man wearing a gray wizard robe and holding a twisted gray wooden staff.
The other party is Vokmas, a senior imperial guardian who also came from a sword-bearing background and has met Ryan once.
At this moment, if someone expands their vision to the entire imperial territory, they will find that similar scenes are happening in the sky above the imperial provinces such as Moselle Province, Nome Province, and Savoy Province.
One day later.
Cyrodiil Plateau.
In the underground construction hall of the Isoderre School, five or six high-level wizards are discussing something.
Bradley, the deputy leader of the Bishu Construction School, looked at the sand table on the stone platform that imitated the terrain of the entire Cyrodiil Plateau with a happy face, and said:
"Leader, with the large number of mechanical sickle-claw dragons and screaming dragons left by Lord Ryan, plus the strong support of the Isodri School, we are now unstoppable and have cleared almost 70% of the plateau land."
"Moreover, the most important point is that from the distribution of the alien spider swarm, we can basically judge that the base of the secret school Tutkash is roughly somewhere in this narrow strip of land."
Bradley pointed to the narrow strip of land on the west side of the plateau and said.
"Well, it is indeed a gratifying victory!"
"However, the next step is the most difficult. I suggest that the subsequent attack be postponed and Lord Ryan be summoned immediately to come to the plateau." The leader Moriah's expression was not so relaxed, but rather quite cautious.
Because he had read the detailed battle report, even with such sharp mechanical creations, the wizards suffered heavy casualties.
This is when most of the enemy's frontal offensives were borne by mechanical creatures such as the mechanical Chocobo and the Mechanical Scytheclaw Dragon.
This is enough to show that the combat power of the alien spider group alone is far beyond their previous expectations.
Moreover, the main force of the Tutkash School is like a venomous snake at this moment, lurking somewhere in the dark and has not yet attacked. Although they are also prepared, they must not be careless.
"I agree. It is more appropriate for us to launch a general attack after His Majesty Ryan arrives." The old wizard with a mustache from the Isoder School nodded.
He has seen Graham's strength and naturally will not underestimate the opponent. If they rely on themselves, even with a powerful weapon like the "Destroyer", they can only barely maintain their undefeated status.
At this time, a young wizard with a happy face hurried to report, saying:
"School Master, many wizard representatives from other schools have come to the Imperial Capital. They said they want to join the Construct Association. This time they came to visit and inspect."
"Huh?" Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, and they were a little surprised for a while.
"Other schools have joined so soon?"
"Which schools are they?" Deputy School Master Bradley asked immediately.
"It's the medium-sized schools, the Solid Rock Construction Workshop, the Clay Puppet Mystic Academy, and some other small wizard schools. They all sent representatives here."
"Huh? These two medium-sized schools didn't get along with us before."
"Yes, I heard that two days ago, Lord Ryan had filed the association's affairs with the Imperial Wizard School Federation. By the way, there is also news that Lord Ryan has been officially promoted to Imperial Guardian."
"What! That's great!" Moria slammed the table heavily, his face flushed with excitement.
How many years!
How many years has it been since the Bixiu Construction School produced an Imperial Guardian!
"Lord Ryan, no, His Majesty Ryan's strength has long surpassed that of ordinary Imperial Guardians. It is normal for him to be awarded the honor of Guardian now." The gray-haired old wizard of the Isolde School stroked his beard and congratulated with a smile.
"No wonder people from other schools come here so soon!" Bradley said with a look of realization.
Just when everyone was happy, suddenly, a young wizard ran in anxiously and said:
"It's not good, Sect Master, several adults, just now we received bad news from the Terufuto Valley. Three teams of construct wizards were wiped out!"
"What!"
"One construct team is equipped with at least one mechanical sickle-claw dragon and one mechanical screaming dragon. Three construct teams. All of them were wiped out?"
"Yes, sir, we have sent people to investigate urgently. We guess that it is very likely that there is the secret base of the Tutkash School that we have been looking for!"
"Contact His Majesty Ryan immediately!"
"Yes, Sect Master."
The next morning.
The main roads in the empire were decorated with lights and colors. The news that the people learned was that the empire was about to hold an awarding ceremony for the new imperial guardians, and the venue was set in the Royal Arena.
At this time, the Royal Arena was already full of flowers, and the stands were almost filled with imperial nobles, noble ladies and young ladies.
Ryan looked at the lively scene in front of him and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice:
"Even nobles, at this time, are no different from ordinary people who are kept in the dark."
"Your Majesty Ryan, perhaps we should look at this issue from a different perspective. In fact, for most people, not knowing may not be happiness." Lambert, who was standing aside with a solemn face, said in a deep voice.
After entering the imperial capital, the guardians who came from all over the country were quickly taken to the isolated secret room and instructed in person. At the same time, they were also issued combat potions and healing potions.
Ryan also met Lambert, who had just entered the Sword Saint not long ago.
The other party was also one of the new personnel this time.
At this time, the 'Red Queen' Menia on the royal stand stood up with a smile, showing her graceful and elegant figure, and said: "After discussion between the royal family and the Senate, I solemnly announce that the ceremony of awarding the new imperial guardians has officially begun."
Menia's words were like cold water poured into boiling oil, and the entire royal arena suddenly boiled!
Applause
"The first one is Mr. Ryan from the Imperial Sword Bearer Department. He is also the youngest imperial guardian in the history of the Dragun Empire!"
Ryan did not expect that Menia would introduce him first.
"The youngest imperial guardian in history? This... This is too amazing!"
"It's really amazing, and this guardian deserves the title. Didn't you see that His Majesty Pantoskirk, who was named 'Storm' two days ago, was also defeated by His Majesty Ryan, not His Majesty Ryan."
"That's right, the empire is still very open-minded in this regard, and does not select imperial guardians based on age and qualifications."
The senior nobles, ladies and ladies present whispered.
"Pa pa pa!"
At this time, someone clapped again, and immediately, the whole audience burst into applause for the second time. For a moment, the atmosphere in the arena reached a climax!
"Thank you, Your Highness Menia, thank you, the Senate, and thank you all." Ryan, who was in the center of the arena, bowed slightly to express his gratitude.
At this time, a strong momentum suddenly rose in the center of the palace, majestic and grand. Even with the weakening of layers of witch formations, everyone in the palace at this moment also clearly felt this.
"This is..." The nobles present were a little at a loss.
However, the imperial guardians who had been prepared for a long time had serious faces. They looked at the center of the palace and whispered: "Has the promotion started?"
