Starry Sky of the Magic Tower

When things go wrong, asking God to worship Buddha is not a good habit. Not only is it easy to be deceived, sometimes incorrect explanations can lead to worse results. But when you encounter something difficult to understand in the maze, it’s normal to ask the brilliant magician to use the magic of prophecy. After all, this is a world with magic and Spiritual God.

For political entities, raising a group of magicians who are good at this is the basic equipment. Because no one can guarantee when there will be a mysterious event that cannot be judged by common sense. At this time, you can only invite these professionals to take action. Sometimes I feel confused about the vague way forward, and I will find such people to give pointers.

But not all Leaders like these people. The struggle between theocracy and the monarchy has always been a puzzled issue. Of course, the theocracy here does not only refer to the general Spiritual God, but generally refers to the interpretation power of mysterious.

If these people can be allowed to serve politics and control what they say, it will be easier for people to accept. But magician has never been so easy to control, and the object of intimidation, especially a group of people who can predict magic.

When the military emperor was young, he didn’t have much experience. When he went everywhere, it was easy to listen to this group of people. But as he got older, he was confident in doing things, so he gradually stopped contacting those people. On the one hand, it is also the feeling that he does not like to do things according to other people’s words. On the other hand, as long as these people speak, whether it is good or bad, it will be fulfilled.

‘When a prophecy is spoken, it becomes a part of building the future. ‘This is what a magician who can predict is often said. It’s not that you can seek luck and avoid calamity if you know the future; sometimes those actions to prevent the future from happening will actually promote the realization of that future. So as long as the ruler with a normal mind knows that he cannot rely too much on this group of people.

We have alienated those people for a long time, and until Duke Becker mentioned it today, did the Emperor Old Sovereign think of raising such a group of rice worms, and they were frowned at the same time. Prophecy is not only aimed at the future, but if it is aimed at the past, it can get clear personnel, time and place, although it is expensive. But the point is that the answer you get is not necessarily what the person asking.

Looking at the old rivals sitting on the throne hesitating, Duke Becker loudly said: “I will bear the price that should be paid. I only need the assistance of Your Majesty to ask the witches for me. “

In order to prevent the words of those people from becoming a political weapon, the Old Sovereign strictly controlled their freedom of contact with the outside world. In the history of the military state, there has been more than one occurrence of those witches trying to use their predictions to change the order of succession to the throne, national policies, and the direction of war. And every time, there is a political purpose behind it, not simply.

Although he is a soft emperor in the mouth of others, he is ten years in number and he has been honed into Old Fox a long time ago. The witches did not dare to point fingers at his state affairs, because that was the experience of countless senior corpses piled up.

Any nobleman who wants to contact the witch in private will welcome the emperor’s fiercest anger. No matter if it’s wrong, beat it first. So even Duke Becker, who is a political enemy, didn’t want to step on the bottom line of the Old Sovereign emperor on this kind of thing, so he asked him to make such a request.

Although we don’t want to see those weird women, Old Sovereign still agreed to Becker’s request. Because he himself was a little bit uncertain about how to treat the two magicians.

The weight of the word’Demon King’, for a Sovereign, is not like the common people in the tavern listening to the bard telling some heroic epics, it is simply an existence for the brave to conquer. That is a heavy term that may shake the country, even though the attitude of most senior military officials is pretending to be stupid. But as an emperor, he had to plan ahead and even plan for the worst.

Of course, with regard to the matter requested by Duke Becker, he will implement it without compromise, instead of asking the questions in his heart. According to his experience, those women who listened to too many words were prone to gains and losses, interfered with judgment, and often answered wrong questions. This also gave Old Sovereign an insight: what people want to hear is never the truth, they just want to hear what they want to hear.

Under the protection of the Guard Knight of the military state, the Old Sovereign walked to a four-story magic tower in the cluster of palaces. There are layers of Golden Armor Guard guarding here, not only to protect the people in the tower, but also to monitor them.

With the arrival of the emperor Your Majesty, the Guard leader immediately directed his subordinates to remove the barriers and clear a road. At the same time, the door of the magic tower opened from the inside, and contemporary witches stood at the door, welcoming the Sovereign.

Miko, in the maze, specifically refers to the female magician with a special bloodline. In the Vader military state, it refers to a group of bloodlines that are particularly good at prophecy.

In order to maintain the power in their bloodline, not only do they have strict criteria for the choice of spouse, but sometimes they may even choose close relatives. And men will only appear in their lives when they need it. Apart from this time, the witches are like caged birds, being kept in the magic tower. It is to accept protection, but also to stay away from the interference of the world, thereby weakening their ability to predict.

However, I don’t know if it is because of the influence of the closed environment or the problem of their own ability. The thinking of the witches is very different from that of normal people. This is also one of the reasons why Old Sovereign is reluctant to contact this group of women.

When he came forward to greet him, there were strange faces standing in front of him. The same characteristic is that they are much younger than those I know. Basically raised in such an environment, the witches live a long life. But the older group is unwilling to come out, does it mean that they are not welcome to their intentions? And the younger group have different ideas?

“Your Majesty.” The maiden Pingting, who took the lead, gave a salute.

“Where is Sophia?” Although he guessed the thoughts of the group of people, the Emperor Old Sovereign asked.

“The teachers are unwilling to intervene in this matter, and they also forbid us to assist. But Your Majesty takes us in, doesn’t it mean that we can help at a critical moment? There is a reason for rejection. . Therefore, with my sisters who are willing to contribute, in addition to proving that we can also be alone, I also hope to contribute our efforts to the military.”

Although these words sound like little girls, I am anxious to think about it. Prove yourself in front of adults. But the Old Sovereign has another meaning from middle grade, that is, they are overlooked and want to make a difference.

To be honest, he does not dislike the enthusiasm of his subordinates. But the disadvantage is that few people can control their behavior. Such people often do not know the red line they step on. So the witches who had this mentality in the past were all burned by herself after they made mistakes.

Seeing such people appear in the younger generation, Old Sovereign did not waste his words and warnings, but hoped that they would not step on the red line too early, otherwise another young life would pass away.

Not much to say, after accepting the request of Becker’s handwriting from the close attendant, the Old Sovereign once again confirmed the content and handed it to the leading witch.

In fact, it is best for the questioner to directly face the magician who uses prophecy, because the strong emotion of the questioner is also an important key to improving the quality of prophecy.

However, when you do not want the two parties to meet, using this kind of handwritten letter to make a request can be regarded as a second best practice. If there is another middleman to transcribe, then there is probably no need to use prophetic magic, it is just a waste of materials.

The leading maiden respectfully took the document from Sovereign and gave way. The Old Sovereign only took two cronies, Knight, into the magic tower. It wasn’t that he entrusted him or trusted these witches. But the only function of this magic tower is to increase the accuracy of prophecy, without any traps, attacking magic arrays, etc.

To put it simply, this four-story magic tower is not lethal. It is aimed at something more illusory and ethereal.

However, the emperor Old Sovereign only found it funny in his heart for the respectful attitude of the contemporary witches. If it’s other old women, it would be considered polite if they didn’t shake their faces. How could it be possible to lower your head and speak so humbly.

Old Sovereign came to the room where the ceremony was held. Just like in the past, when they came here, they had already prepared everything they were going to hold. It’s like getting off the horse and telling themselves that they had foreseen everything a long time ago.

Move to the old position and sit still. This is a small magic array that can watch the whole ceremony without affecting the progress of the ceremony.

Just before the young maidens were about to start the ceremony, another group of people walked in. Dressed in black veil, wearing black robe, senile, they staggered and came to the front of the Old Sovereign emperor. None of them spoke first, they just looked at someone gloomily.

The Old Sovereign emperor who has honed his face into Copper Wall Iron Bastion a long time ago, how can he be afraid of a group of old women staring at him? But for these old witches, a little necessary respect is indispensable. There are several people in it, but the help from the beginning of his ascension, he even taught himself when he was young. So Old Sovereign said: “Mother Sophia, it makes me happy to see that you are still healthy and healthy.”

“It makes me happy to see you dying.”

To this witch who taught herself, even if her beard is gray, she still has a way to keep her head down. As for the curse in his mouth, the Old Sovereign didn’t take it seriously, saying, “I’m living enough. And I’ve killed a crown prince, and now my grandson has waited long enough. I’ve worked hard to maintain this country in my life. I dare not say that the military state is stronger than my father’s time, but at least it has not declined. And when I die, I will not regret it. Naturally, people in the future will worry about future things. I will not die, it’s true. I’m not afraid.”

“Fool. I want to die elsewhere, don’t die here. You die here, just to give your stupid grandson an excuse for courting death.”

“Mother, are you…”

In the surprise of the Old Sovereign, the strong maid who stayed in the magic tower to serve the witches, used the warehouse as the magic material for the sacrifice of prophecy, Box by box were moved to the ceremony room and placed in piles at the place where the sacrifices were prepared. At the same time, the black robe maidens who followed Sophia also inlaid magic stones in specific positions, opening the second and third circle of magic arrays to protect the emperor.

This battle reminded the Old Sovereign of an unproven rumor: a certain prophecy master was related to those two, so he lost a pair of eyes, and has since severed his power in magic. Continue to diligently.

That… Has Granny Sophia foresee the object that might provoke this time?
