Chapter 360

When Ivan walked out of the office and was led away by Orlando, Joshua invited Nostradamus to sit down and asked him to tell him in detail what his majesty had to tell him.

After the old mage sat down, there was no nonsense. He took a cup of tea and finished it in a concise way. Then he squinted, stroked his beard and waited for the soldier's response.

And after hearing the narration of Nostradamus quietly, Joshua said calmly, "they finally spoke."

There was no expression of surprise on the soldier's face, as if he had thought of it for a long time. When Nostradamus raised his eyebrows and looked at him, Joshua showed a smile: "originally, I thought that when the college was over, I would go to the far south no matter whether the holy mountain would invite me or not."

After knocking on the table, the old mage frowned and reminded: "Joshua, that's far south, the place where the Dragon disaster started. Now this is the most chaotic place on the continent, and you are the imperial nobles at the other end of the world - what are you doing there?"

Speaking of this, Nostradamus stopped for a moment, seemed to be thinking about the wording, and then went on to say: "seriously, why do you want to go to the distant holy mountain? At most, you are interested in the power of order, and there are many holy vessels that can replace the power of order. You are not a necessary factor."

Joshua was not surprised by the old mage's attitude: "you don't want me to go far south, but I think this opinion is not bad - you see, they are willing to pay two sacred implements for this. As long as I go, I can enter the holy hall and choose at will."

"To be exact, I don't want you to go to the distant holy mountain." Nostradamus sighed and shook his head in some wonder: "on the contrary, I don't understand why you want to go to the far south. Now it's a mess there, and everyone will have a headache. Compared with the dangerous events that need the help of the extremely strong, the two sacred vessels are not fair rewards."

"If trouble doesn't come to me, I'll go to trouble." Shrugging his shoulders, Joshua said his life creed flatly: "it doesn't matter whether it's fair or not. The most important thing is that my hands itch - I can't stand staying in the Lord's mansion all the time, just" listening "to the distant war news."

"If the church is willing to pay me to fight, why not?"

With that, the soldier raised his hand, and Joshua showed the old mage his fist: "see, master Nostradamus? What's this? "

"Fist."

This is a bronze fist with five fingers clenched and weathered for a long time. It is as indestructible as the strongest piece of steel. The slightly agitated blood vessels are full of breath of life. Even Nostradamus has never seen such a powerful fist. It seems that as long as it is waved, nothing can stop it.

"It's very powerful. It's worthy of being the youngest Jiyi level strong man in the history of the Empire. Your life power is more powerful than that of the dragon."

At first he exclaimed, but Nostradamus still didn't understand what Joshua wanted to express. The old mage asked with some doubts, "but then what?"

"There are many magic dragons in Yuannan. You may not be able to defeat them easily."

"- hundreds of thousands of people in the far south are trapped in the blockade area of the dragon, and the central defense line is attacked by tens of thousands of dragon every day."

The soldier gave some wrong answers. He simply described the war reports in recent days: "of course, the situation is getting better. A few days ago, the Allied forces of the Kingdom and the elves took back a lot of lost land, but we all know that all this is because the five color dragons are shrinking and concentrating their strength to attack the seven God church first."

"If they succeed, there is no doubt that the far south Kingdom, the largest gathering place of human beings in the south of the continent, which has lost the support of the church, will be conquered by foreign people - life will be ruined, countless families will be broken, and the prosperous civilization of the past will be completely destroyed by barbarism."

At this point, Joshua's eyes were deep. He recalled the time when he was fighting in the far south, and the feeling of blood boiling was still fresh in his memory.

"So now."

But he was not affected by the memories of the past. A few seconds later, Joshua's eyes were clear again. His tone was very calm and not a bit excited. The soldier looked directly into Nostradamus's eyes: "my fist tells me that strength should be used here. It has been honed for more than ten years to this point, not to watch this scene happen."

"... that's right."

I don't know how to say it. The old mage's expression is complicated.

Of course, he knew that if the Dragon really broke through the holy mountain, the situation would be irreparable, and the human forces in the whole continent would be really passive... But is it possible? The most powerful person in the mainland, Pope Igor of the seven gods church, is there. In addition to the fact that the church has been operating for nearly a thousand years, even the arrival of the Dragon God may not be able to break the holy mountain. The seven gods of the human race have been watching the far south, and they will not sit back and ignore it.

In the final analysis, the old mage still thought that all this was too far away and had nothing to do with the Empire."No one is an island of isolation." For the attitude of Nostradamus, Joshua shook his head, he seriously said: "everyone is a human, whether you and I, are so."

"When the real death knell rings, no one will be spared. Hesitation can't save those who wait and see, and prudence can't save those who hesitate."

Although the time was not right because of Joshua's change in the world, the soldiers remembered clearly how critical the situation of the seven gods church was in the previous life.

On a stormy summer night, taking advantage of the typhoon in the rainy season, the three legendary five color dragons led nearly 100000 crazy flying dragons to attack the holy mountain. Although the church had already made preparations for the battle, it was also suppressed by the intensity of the offensive and could not fight back.

In this week of torrential rain, the peripheral fortifications of the Church of seven gods had been completely destroyed before the three legendary dragons were released. Most of the clergymen gave up their towns on the island and relied on the strong temples on the holy mountain to continue their defense.

Then came the tug of war. Every day, a new army of dragons came from all over the world, even from the other side of the distant sea. Their number was almost endless, and they were attacking all the time. No matter how strong the spirit of the church clergy was, they were just human beings. They could not bear the high tension for a week.

And just when all human beings are exhausted, the three legendary dragons are ready to destroy the defense line of holy mountain.

Pope Iger and the bishops had to fight, and the aftermath of the fight even scattered the raging typhoon. The fight between them lasted for eight days and nights, but the saints in the holy mountain could not hold on for such a long time. Many knights who had been fighting from the beginning died suddenly because of fatigue, and the defense line was in great chaos.

Fortunately, at this time, a little-known priest was inspired by the gods. He developed a special transmission array. Any clergyman who holds the power of the holy light can position himself with the help of a holy weapon in time and space in the great temple, With the help of this new force, the holy mountain's front line gradually became stable.

At the end of the battle, Pope Igor was more powerful. With his own strength, he defeated all the high-end fighting forces of the five color dragon clan, and completely expelled the wild dragon army with legendary power. But even so, it was too late.

After this battle, the seven gods church was greatly weakened, and almost all the paladins and priests who traveled in the whole continent disappeared, laying the groundwork for the evil cult's rampage. As the holy mountain in the distant sea contracted most of its sphere of influence, many of the seal areas or chaotic erosion areas they supervised began to spread gradually, perhaps at that time, It was only through a small gap that the abyss of Anos gradually grew into the gate of abyss for later generations.

If at that time, there were strong people in other regions willing to help the seven gods church, then things would never come to this point.

"Take me back to the Lord's house first, master Nostradamus."

Standing up, Joshua looked up at the skylight of the sun. The soldier narrowed his eyes. He didn't want to explain, but said calmly: "I'm going to tell Ying and Lin that the rest is over."

"It's time to go."

Aware that he could not convince the soldiers, Nostradamus sighed helplessly and stood up. However, Joshua seemed to think of something. He took out a transparent crystal from his arms. Looking at this crystal, the soldiers seemed to hesitate.

But then he made up his mind: "next, go directly to the imperial capital."

"I happen to have something to say to his majesty Israel."

——Half a day later.

The northern Empire, the holy city of three mountains, the imperial capital, the palace of Morley.

Aware of the transmission fluctuation inside his palace, in his study, Israel, who was looking at a map of the far south, raised his brow.

"It's coming so fast."

He rubbed his chin and said in a low voice, "it's a young man. His determination is much higher than ours."

After that, he put the map on the table away and hung it in a corner of the wall. Then his majesty sat down in his chair, waiting for the visitors soon after.

A few minutes later, regular footsteps sounded in the corridor outside the Royal study and stopped at the door.

Sensing the powerful life force outside the door, Israel smiles and says, "come in, the door is unlocked."

He didn't like the red tape, so he was very casual in private. When he heard the master's voice, the door was opened, and the Empire controller was not surprised to see Joshua's face."You accepted the church's invitation?"

There was no extra politeness. Israel asked Joshua with great interest. Different from the resistance revealed by Nostradamus, the emperor was just a little curious. Then he shrugged his shoulders and said, "yes, you are a man who can't spare time. If you have a chance to fight, you won't let it go."

As a soldier, he understood his mind better than the old mage.

"But where is your magic weapon? And the sea dragon, don't they go with you? "

Compared with the tired and heavy minded Empire controller in the hall of the holy emblem last time, Israel is in a good mood now. Although Joshua doesn't know why, he can see that his majesty is in a good mood now.

So he did not salute, but simply explained: "Ying and Lin should still be taking care of Brandon and verdani's children now. I have informed the couple to come back as soon as possible and take them away. Black is too big and needs a special portal to deliver them. Master Nostradamus has no time now, It will probably take tomorrow to open up such a channel. "

"It's just magic."

Hearing this, Israel's expression was a little puzzled. He frowned and said, "last time, didn't I give you an easy pendant? It should be able to change the shape of the sea dragon and become about the size of a horse. Although it can't be used for a long time, it's absolutely OK to pass through the portal. "

“……”

Breathing a little stagnation, Joshua suddenly found that he really seems to have forgotten this matter.

Yes, when he came back from the imperial capital last time, he went directly to deal with the affairs of heretics and dragon eggs. Then he prepared for the college test. In the middle of the test, Brandon and his wife came to visit and entrusted their daughter to take care of him. He completely forgot the change of form!

This is indeed a bad habit. Soldiers are always lazy to see what kind of equipment they have. Anyway, they are the same as long as they have weapons.

But Israel did not pay attention to Joshua's expression, he said calmly: "do you want to ask how to go far south? Don't worry. The church and I have already made arrangements. After all, it's a big event about the majesty of the Empire. It will definitely give you a surprise. "

At this point, he showed a smile and seemed very satisfied with the so-called surprise.

"Part of it, but I'm here for another purpose."

Aware that the topic was getting more and more biased, Joshua quickly stopped the deviation of the topic. He stood in front of Israel's desk and said in a deep voice: "your secret wound."

When this sentence was said by the soldiers, the atmosphere of the whole study immediately stagnated.

But then, the pressure from the legendary power quickly dissipated.

"As you can see, it's not surprising."

Instead of sitting in his seat, the emperor stood up and walked in his study. He said with self mockery, "last time I was in Shenghui hall, I really lost my manners. I was so tired and hurt for a long time that I forgot to cover up my emotions - maybe even earlier, when you and I first exchanged views, you found this."

——It's actually a little earlier, like a previous life.

Joshua didn't answer, because in front of him, a detailed panel was slowly emerging.

At the beginning, with the strength of the warrior's gold level, there was no way to pass the systematic appraisal and see the emperor's front panel clearly. But now, Joshua has reached the realm of extreme intention. Although there is still a great distance from the legendary realm, if you just look at the front panel, you can still see clearly.
