Chapter 460

Bikin City, the House of the Earl of Russo.

The banquet was still going on. As the absolute protagonist, Princess Helen seldom spoke, and most of them were listening and getting to know people.

But for every person who came to see her, she could accurately name the other person and tell the time of the last meeting, which made everyone flattered and overjoyed, because this happened more than ten years ago. Occasionally, some nobles are approaching their birthdays recently, and they can get the blessing of Princess Helen, which makes the other party even more excited.

"Husband, come here!" Duke Debos walked to Shen Lang's side and whispered.

Then she took Shen Lang to a secret study and said, "There is a mysterious guest who wants to see you."

Shen Lang said: "The Great Priest of the Vulcan Sect is right?"

Duke Debors said, "As smart as you are, my dear husband."

Then, she kissed Shen Lang, and did not immediately take Shen Lang to see the guests, but asked, "Husband, do you know why I chose to believe in Vulcanism?"

Shen Lang said: "Why? Is it because your figure is very hot?"

"This is also one of the reasons, and you are most aware of this." Duke Debos said: "But the most important reason is because I have seen the powerful mysterious power of Vulcanism."

"Gunpowder?" Shen Lang asked, "Hell Fire Insect?"

"Not only that." Duke Debos said: "There are other things, such as they said that my son will become a prince, and I almost saw this very clearly in a dream, which is extremely real."

Shen Lang said: "Not only that."

Duke Debos is a political creature. Without absolute power, she would not choose to fully cooperate with Vulcanism, or even choose to convert. So the heralding that her son can become a prince can only have a little effect on her.

"Husband, do you know that there is no real detachment in the entire Western world." Duke Debos said: "Bai Jing is high above and has never contacted us. It is used to control the minds of the Vidas, and they suffered a fatal blow from Queen Helen more than a hundred years ago. Therefore, Vulcanism is the closest to detachment, and they are equivalent to the embryonic form of detachment in your eastern world."

Shen Lang understood what Debos meant.

"In the eastern world, the six detached forces and the Great Yan Empire monopolized the entire ancient civilization and ruled the entire eastern world." Debos continued: "It can be seen that the detached forces and the secular kingship are still very deeply integrated."

Therefore, Debos took a fancy to Vulcanism. She saw some mysterious power of the other party, and the other party saw her worldly power, so it hit it off.

"Husband, in fact, I have a question that I have not been able to understand." Duke Debos asked.

Shen Lang said: "The Eastern World and the Great Yan Empire are so powerful, why not invade the Western world and directly rule the New World, right?"

Duke Debos nodded. He knew that the Great Yan Empire was powerful before, but after going through everything recently, she knew that the Great Yan Empire and the Eastern World were stronger than she thought.

That being the case, why not only did the Eastern world not invade the Western world, but even the Great Yan Empire completely cut off trade exchanges with the Western world? This seems a little illogical.

In fact, not only Dibos, but even Shen Lang was a little puzzled. The six detached forces in the eastern world are fighting openly and secretly to compete for the ancient ruins, and there are still some ancient ruins that have not been developed in the western world, why do they not come to the western world?

Do these ancient ruins also have attributes? The West is only suitable for the West, and the East is only suitable for the East? Does this make sense?

It seems that the world is more mysterious than imagined.

"Okay, Mr. Husband, are you ready to meet the High Priest of the Vulcan Sect?" Debos asked.

"Of course!" Shen Lang said.

Then, Debos walked out, and a moment later the mysterious Vulcan high priest walked in.

This is a mysterious woman, wearing a red hood, after opening it is a beautiful middle-aged woman with red hair. In particular, the two eyes are different from ordinary people, as if they contain some kind of special spiritual power, as if they can see through the human heart at a glance.

At that time, it was the high priest who used the hellfire worm to assassinate Shen Lang.

"I have seen Your Excellency Shen Lang." Shen Lang said: "I formally apologize to you here for the unpleasant scene a few months ago."

Shen Lang frowned and said, "That's not just unpleasant. Thirty-nine Amazon warriors have died. They didn't die on the battlefield, but in your assassination plot. If this matter is not explained, I will I won't forget this."

"Of course I will explain it to you." The Vulcan Sect High Priest clapped his hands.

Suddenly, someone brought in a few large boxes, and when they opened it, they were densely packed with human heads.

"There are ninety-nine heads here, all of them from our Vulcan Sect." The high priest said: "Because they have offended you, they are willing to commit suicide to redeem themselves. Of course, if it is not enough, you can say a number."

It's really cruel, but is it suicide, or is it committed suicide?

Shen Lang's eyes couldn't help but look towards the high priest. The culprits who assassinated Shen Lang that day were Di Bos and the high priest in front of him. Di Bos had already become his wife, so how could the high priest be redeemed?

This mysterious high priest pulled off the hood of her body without saying a word. It was empty and nothing was worn, revealing her charming and compact body with undulating curves.

"Of course, if you think this is not enough, you can say that as long as I can get your understanding, I can do anything." The Vulcan Sect High Priest said.

The Vulcan priest in front of him is very beautiful, but Shen Lang's beauty in the Western world has already slept enough, and he is really powerless. He was squeezed by Queen Ada on Saltpeter Island. After a few days, he was squeezed by Debos, a lioness. He only hated that the western world did not have Guifu Dihuang Wan, a holy product for nourishing the kidney.

Of course, looking at the beauty of the body is still very pleasant.

Since you can't wear clothes, let's chat like this.

"I think you probably have no appetite now." The Vulcan Sect high priest said, and then she took out another box, and after opening it, there was a classic book.

"This is a gift for you, please accept it, otherwise we will feel uneasy." The Vulcan Sect High Priest said.

This is a precious gift. It is the first time that Shen Lang has seen a classic book in the Western world. The Vulcan Sect has mastered some mysterious and powerful ancient powers, so Shen Lang may be able to research some more mysterious weapons from this ancient book.

"I accept it." Shen Lang said: "Excuse me, what is the matter with the High Priest Master coming to see me? I have to tell you that Helen and I are sisters and brothers, but I will never interfere in any internal affairs of the Xi Lun Empire. I'm not going to agree to anything on her behalf."

"Of course." The Vulcan Sect High Priest said: "Everything we do is just to make up for the mistakes we made before, and there are absolutely no conditions."

Really smart.

Then, the high priest of the Vulcan Sect took out a piece of silk and put it on the chair, and asked Shen Lang, "Is it okay?"

"Of course." Shen Lang said: "Please take a seat."

The High Priest of the Vulcan Sect sat down gracefully, organized his words for a while, and said, "I know that Your Excellency Shen Lang has had a lot of unpleasantness with those detached forces in the Western world. The detached forces in the Eastern world are very powerful. It's like a newborn baby, but that's what makes it malleable. At least we're not so arrogant and reserved, our attitude is quite open."

Shen Lang smiled and said, "How many years has your religion developed?"

The high priest of the Vulcan Sect said: "If you want to talk about history, I can say it is five hundred years, but in front of you, I choose to be honest, we really found the altar and really started to develop, it is only a hundred years, and we can go. Faltering."

Shen Lang said: "But I have seen the power of your sect."

The high priest of the Vulcan Sect said: "In the words of an oriental, it is laughable and generous."

Next, the two of them had a rambling conversation. The Vulcan Sect High Priest showed very clear meaning. She was here to make friends, and everything was for friendship, not profit, so there was no negotiation.

In short, there is only one meaning in her words, and she must not have any prejudice against Vulcanism because of the detachment of the Eastern world. Also don't take a hostile attitude because of the unpleasantness that happened in the past.

Shen Lang guessed and did not say that this Vulcan religion is equivalent to the prototype of the Western world's detachment, but it is far from becoming an overlord.

In fact, there is another mysterious detachment force that has also been conceived, that is, the pyramid on the top of the snow-capped mountain in the ruins of the lost capital, that force that is temporarily completely isolated from the world.

"It has been a long time since I disturbed Your Excellency Shen Lang. Thank you for your precious time to meet me. I will not forget this kindness." Holy altar."

Shen Lang said: "Yes, when I think the conditions are suitable, I will send an application to your teacher. I have fully felt your friendship."

The Vulcan Sect High Priest stood up and asked, "Is it okay?"

"Of course." Shen Lang said: "Thank you for the gift of Your Excellency High Priest, let me talk while looking at the beautiful scenery."

"It is my honor that my humble body can be appreciated by a man like you." The Vulcan Sect chief priest said: "Then I will leave, here I wish you a smooth journey back to the eastern world and reach your final destination. wish."

Shen Lang said: "Thank you, thank you! Here, I also wish your religion a smooth development."

"Is it okay?" asked the Vulcan High Priest, then opened his arms.

"Of course." Shen Lang also opened his arms.

The two of them hugged gently, and the Vulcan Sect high priest even gave Shen Lang a veiled face-to-face salute.

When walking out the door, the Vulcan Sect High Priest said: "Your Excellency Shen Lang, take the liberty to ask, are you planning to go to Queen City?"

Shen Lang said: "Yes."

The Vulcan Sect High Priest said: "I personally suggest that the sooner you go, the better."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Lang's eyes trembled slightly, what does this mean?

Soon Sauron thought that the Vulcan religion should have its own intelligence organization, and it was also very close to the northern nobles, so he was able to get some relatively secret information.

"Thank you for letting me know!"

Then, Shen Lang did not return to the banquet hall, but stood directly outside the balcony, looking in the direction of Queen City.

Of course, he couldn't see anything, it was more than 10,000 miles away from Queen City.

Shen Lang had promised little baby Yaoyao that he would definitely pick her up within a year, even if he crawls, he would crawl in front of her, and now there are still two months away.

But Shen Lang decided to leave for Queen City tomorrow, the sooner the better.

It is not enough for him to go, the key is Princess Helen. But before that, Princess Helen must hold a meeting with the nobles of the entire south, and she must confirm the establishment of the entire southern aristocratic faction before she can go north to the Queen City, so that she will have absolute confidence in the next negotiation with Sauron. 's confidence.

"Dear, what's the matter?" Duke Debos hugged Shen Lang from behind.

Shen Lang said: "How long until the banquet is over?"

"About two hours," said Duke Debors.

Shen Lang said: "Then I won't go back. I'll go to Queen City first. Helen's martial arts are high, and she will catch up with me directly after two."

Duke Debos said, "What's wrong? Has there been any change in Queen City?"

Shen Lang said: "It's not a change of change."

Debos said: "Husband, then I will go with you."

Shen Lang said: "No, you have just been pregnant for a while, so you are not suitable for long-distance travel. And whether it is Bijin City or Mulan City, you can't do without your overall planning."

Duke Debos said softly: "Dear, did we two separate after not being together for a long time?"

This sentence comes from her political instinct, but also from her emotional instinct. She is a political creature, but not without feelings. It's just that before she gets into love, she will be absolutely rational and absolute interests come first. When it suits her interests, she will also invest sincere feelings, because she also knows how to make herself happy and sweet, no matter how strong, a woman without love may be incomplete.

Shen Lang patted her waist lightly, and then said, "Dora, let's get ready and set off immediately."

"Yes!"

In a quarter of an hour!

Under the protection of a thousand Amazon legions, Shen Lang boarded the fastest ship of the Skeleton Party and left the waters of Bijin City, sailing in the direction of Queen City, and will be able to arrive in about twelve days.

Standing on the bow, Shen Lang looked at the sky to the north, as if Queen Medusa's words sounded in his ears again.

"Shen Lang, I will return Qiu Yao'er to you, completely."

With a sigh in his heart, Shen Lang knew clearly in his heart, even when he saw Queen Medusa at first sight, although the two were the parents of the little baby, but at least up to now, the two were not destined.

"Baby Yaoyao, daddy is here to pick you up."

………………………………

All the way silent, twelve days passed quickly.

The ship Shen Lang still carried the flag of the Skeleton Party, but it was not blocked in any way. Along the way, it encountered many merchant ships, fleets, and sporadic pirates. Not only did they not encounter any trouble, but they even received unanimous cheers and salutes. Long live the Skeleton Party, and the noble ships, the merchant ships of the Vida clan, shouted long live the princess.

The news of this world spreads very fast, as if it has a mouth, especially on the ocean, whether it is a pirate or a sea merchant, can get brand new news in the taverns and brothels in the city. Of course, whether it is 100% true or not is unknown, because pirates are the most bragging profession in the world.

"Long live Princess Helen."

"Long live the Skull Party."

"Long live Duke Shen Lang!"

Twelve days later, the warship sailed more than 12,000 miles and came to the city of Siva, more than 200 miles southeast of the Queen City.

The owners of the city, the Siwa family, are also Queen Helen's most loyal subjects and the most staunch supporters of the two benevolent policies of the Queen. Because of this, he was severely suppressed by the entire northern nobles and could hardly survive, so when Queen Medusa called, he also declared his allegiance and hung up the flag of the Witch Empire. After that, Duke Russell's army of 200,000 attacked the city of Siva, and Duke Siva chose to surrender after being defeated.

Ten months ago, the merchant ship that Shen Lang followed Hill landed in Siva City. At that time, the whole city was a huge military camp. It's still the same now, but the gunpowder and bloodstains are gone.

As soon as Shen Lang's battleship approached the pier, three ships immediately greeted him, waving salute slogans, and just after landing, he saw a neat guard of honor of the Third Empire of Xi Lun, headed by Duke Russell, the second should be It was the Duke of Siva.

A month ago, Duke Russell returned to Siwa City with an army of 100,000. Of course, even by sea, an army of 100,000 troops could not complete a full return and retreat in a month. Duke Russell was the first to return on a ship, and he also went to the imperial capital of Xilun, and then went south to Siva City, presided over situation here.

Because next, Princess Helen and Sauron will have a real decisive battle, and this decisive battle will decide the fate of the entire Xiron Empire.

"Welcome to land on the eastern side of the empire again, my esteemed Lord Shen Lang." Duke Russell stretched out his hand towards Shen Lang.

Shen Lang reached out and shook hands with him: "It's a pleasure to meet you again."

Next, he planned to reach out and shake Duke Siwa's hand, but the other party stepped forward and hugged, looking particularly excited.

"Respected Lord Shen Lang, for some reason, although I was unable to attend the banquet that night, the Siwa family will always stand on Princess Helen's side. Even if they lose all their fiefs and troops, the Siwa family is also the servant of Her Royal Highness. "The Duke of Siva said this in front of Duke Russell, even though his city was completely occupied at this time.

"I thank you for your loyalty on behalf of my sister." Shen Lang said: "Two adults, I am very happy to visit Xiwa City, but I need to rush to Queen City in the shortest time, so I leave."

"Congratulations to send off Lord Shen Lang, we have prepared all the supplies for you on the way to Queen City."

Then, under the watch of the two dukes and the 5,000 honor guards, Shen Lang took a thousand Amazon legions and rushed towards the Queen City.

…………………………

Just a few hours later, Shen Lang came to the Queen City.

He saw this beautiful pink city once again. The city was still besieged by a large army. At least more than 300,000 troops surrounded the Queen City. The large open space outside the city was even full of various defense lines and military camps.

Shen Lang and his party were still unstoppable, and the army of hundreds of thousands of Xi Lun Third Empire silently gave way. But not a single officer nor a nobleman came to greet Shen Lang, because these were the armies of the northern nobles.

Entering the Queen City again, the laughter has been lost here, but it is not gloomy and despairing. The city is not so romantic anymore, but there is still a spirit brewing in everyone's eyes.

Because everyone knew that Princess Helen had returned, the master who had left them finally realized his power and responsibility.

The Queen's City Lord, Duke Hall, came to greet Shen Lang, and his mood was extremely complicated. No one can compare to his affection for Queen Helen, and no noble can compare to his loyalty and affection to Princess Helen.

Since childhood, the Duke of Big Hall has been full of infinite expectations for Princess Helen. As a result, she left and chose to wander.

Sadness is greater than death. Duke Hall feels that he is only Helen's chief executive and is incapable of protecting this great city, so it is likely to fall into the hands of greedy northern nobles. It was at this time that Queen Medusa appeared and protected the city.

Protect, not occupy.

The Duke of Hall is infinitely loyal to Princess Helen. As for Queen Medusa, Duke Hall is an unparalleled worship, completely treating her as a god.

At this moment, his expression was extremely complicated.

"Meet again, esteemed Lord Shen Lang." Duke Hall opened his arms.

Shen Lang stepped forward and hugged him: "Lord Hall, this is how the world is. It is full of disappointments all the time, but there will be surprises all the time."

"Who said it wasn't?" Duke Hall said: "This may be the best ending, although it hurts my emotions a bit. But the gods don't care too much about our mere personal emotions, don't they?"

Shen Lang said: "There is a saying in the east, if the sky is in love, the sky is also old."

While the two were talking, they galloped towards the palace.

……………………

After passing through the long tunnel, Shen Lang entered the underground tomb of the palace. Queen Medusa was gone, and even the four mysterious masters who guarded her were gone.

Shen Lang looked at the empty underground palace and sighed inwardly.

Although all of this was expected, it was frustrating when it actually happened.

Close your eyes, as if you can still feel the presence of Queen Medusa, her charming fragrance is deep into the bones, as long as she stays in the place for a long time, it will not dissipate.

Or perhaps her scent has been engraved into Shen Lang's memory, as long as she thinks of it, she can smell it.

I know this is going to be the case, but it's a pity I can't say goodbye.

Immediately after, Shen Lang overturned this view, it would be better not to say goodbye. Because once you say goodbye, you may be gone forever.

Leave the underground tomb and return to the palace.

"When did Her Majesty leave?" Shen Lang asked.

"About thirteen days ago, because all the children in the Queen City that night seemed to have heard a nursery rhyme, they became very obedient." Duke Hall said.

That was the night of the great banquet, when all the southern nobles came to celebrate the return of Princess Helen.

The entire southern part of the empire seemed destined to have only one woman. When Princess Helen announced her return, Queen Medusa left.

Of course, Queen Medusa was never the owner of this land, she only served as a protector temporarily.

………………

Shen Lang walked into the dust-free palace and saw the snow-white jade bed and the sleeping little man lying on it from a distance.

Almost a year has passed, and his Yaoyao baby does not seem to have grown up much, still so delicate, still so exquisite, like a transparent jade person.

Shen Lang came to the bed and looked at Yao Yao's side, filled with portraits. Some were painted by Shen Lang for her, and some were painted by herself.

The latest one is especially well drawn, and although the faces of the three are blurred, they are the most similar. A family of three, my father, mother, and Yaoyao.

In the past ten months, this little treasure has been supported by these portraits and Shen Lang's promise.

Shen Lang stepped forward, gently stroked the hair of little baby Yaoyao, and said in a hoarse and gentle voice, "baby Yaoyao, dad is here."

After a while, Little Yaoyao opened her blurred eyes, then stretched her arms around Shen Lang's neck.

Shen Lang picked up her small body and looked at the little baby carefully.

She has changed!

Her eyes weren't so tired anymore, and her breath was stronger.

And the heartbeat is much stronger.

Queen Medusa has said that before she leaves, she will give her daughter something to support her, at least for a few years.

"Baby, will your father take you to find your mother in the future?" Shen Lang asked.

Yao Yao nodded vigorously.

"Do you know where my mother is?" Shen Lang asked.

Yaoyao nodded, but shook his head again.

Shen Lang understands, she can't say it now, but when she grows up, she will know.

I hope Queen Medusa didn't lie to her.

I hope she doesn't really leave completely...

Shen Lang took Yaoyao and walked out of the dust-free palace. This was the first time in several years that the little baby had left the palace and came to the outside world.

Standing on the highest point of the palace, Yao Yao's big eyes stared greedily at this colorful world.

She was lucky. The first time she saw the outside world, it was this beautiful Queen City, and she could not wait to draw it all at once.

…………

Queen Medusa has been away for more than ten days, there is no news at all, and she has never returned.

Shen Lang didn't stop at Queen City, and left with little baby Yaoyao. He didn't go to the pier of Xiwa City, but went all the way to the east, where there was no pier, only a reef and a narrow beach.

The Amazon Legion built a beautiful thatched cottage here, and let Shen Lang and Yao Yao live in it.

The father and daughter were waiting here, waiting for a certain figure to appear.

Three days later!

A tired figure slowly descended from the north to the south, wading in.

The waves almost drowned her general body.

She raised her head, looked towards Shen Lang and Yao Yao, and then ran wildly.

She is Qiu Yao'er, that heroic heroine.

100% Qiu Yao'er was exactly the same as when they separated a few years ago.

…………………………

Note: I changed places today, and I am almost on the road during the day. They went to the hot springs, and I was still in my room coding. Immediately leaving the western world, brothers, give me the monthly pass, and bow to the pastry!
