MTL - Age of Mysticism-Chapter 399 Angels and Glitters
Chapter 399 The Angel and the Shining Gold Man
After several days of preparation, on a rainy day, Princess Dai was dragging her suitcase and got on the train to Raging City by herself. There she will transfer to a ship bound for the Emerald Forest, a two-week voyage to her destination.
Start her study abroad journey.
At the request of Princess Dai, no one came to see her off... Only a few imperial spies in disguise followed quietly.
On the same day, a group of angels descended from the sky.
A World Bank airship arrives almost simultaneously.
According to the order of the Marquis of Meteorite, the Golden Shield Empire gave the Shining Jin Mission the highest-level welcoming ceremony.
Gabriel, Chief Assistant of the Imperial Cabinet, Agatha, Princess of the Empire, Meteor, Minister of the Imperial Cabinet, and Governor of Raging Waves City, led a group of high-ranking imperial officials to the imperial airship take-off and landing site to greet them.
Royal knights lined up on armored horses for inspection.
From the Imperial Airship Landing Field to the Imperial Palace, a large group of citizens were organized to welcome them. Waving the imperial flag and the emblem of the World Bank in their hands, they shouted welcome slogans.
Everyone has a smile from the heart.
Golden people, the World Bank, a lot of money...No one doesn't like it.
On the other hand, the Angel Mission was much quieter.
More than a dozen angels descended on the central square of the empire with a very high profile, and the empire sent only a few old cabinet ministers to greet them. There are no royal carriages, no royal knights to lead the way, and no crowds to welcome.
Only the city garrison regiment sent a military band and guard of honor, pretending to hold a deserted welcoming ceremony.
Then drive to the palace.
The route is adjacent to the route of the Shuojin mission to the palace, and the difference in treatment makes every visiting angel look very ugly.
When... the arrival of angels is an extremely grand event for the ignorant secular world. Emperors and kings will greet them in person, and civilians will worship on both sides of the road piously.
And now!
The muddy road turned into a smooth concrete road, and the simple stone house became a high-rise building. The steam bus travels between the cities, and the shops on both sides display a wide range of commodities.
People's clothes are not tattered, and their expressions are not elegant, but the confidence brought by a prosperous life.
The unhappiness of being neglected and the novelty of the secular world made the angels in the car look at the scene on both sides of the road with complicated emotions.
"We have been away from the secular world for too long!"
An angel with a square face couldn't help expressing emotion. He was wearing a white ancient Greek-style cloth robe, with intricate runes displayed on it with golden silk threads. The pure white wings are gathered behind, and the whole body exudes a holy halo. The white curly hair did not make him look old, but made him more stable and majestic.
The angel sitting next to him is a little younger. He is wearing a white angel armor, light golden hair, and a thorny wreath on his head. His expression is proud and oppressive.
"Archangel Gold, you have also seen what the secular world looks like now. Everyone is chasing fame and fortune, which has caused moral decline. It is not that we have left the secular world for too long, but justice has left them for too long.
That's why we come here, build temples here, and shelter those who lack faith under the wings of angels. "
"Malus..."
Gold called the young angel's name, and the young angel immediately corrected him: "As the Holy Tribunal Angel, please call me by my holy name."
"Okay, the crown of thorns." Gold changed his words very accommodatingly: "Remember the purpose of our coming this time. Building the sanctuary is just a side task."
"But this is an agreement between Sword of Oath and the Emperor of the Golden Shield Empire. It cannot be because of..."
"The Crown of Thorns!" Gold prevented the Crown of Thorns from saying what it should not have said: "The construction of the Holy Church in the City of St. Lun was a decision made by the Holy Tribunal without the consent of the Archangel Council. Return to the secular world to reach a consensus.
As one of the archangels, I am responsible for the responsibilities entrusted to me by Sky City. "
The Crown of Thorns said very young and vigorously: "The real responsibility of the angel is to execute justice!"
"You're right!" Gold did not argue with the crown of thorns, but turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window.
After thousands of years of cultivation, the newborn angels made the empty sky city lively after the war. However, the newborn angel did not experience the cruel war, but was attracted by the heroic performance of the angel in the war. As a product of ancient wars, the Holy Tribunal has always been on the front line of the war, so it has attracted many newborn angels to join.
The current Sanctuary is almost out of the control of the Archangel Council in Sky City, showing a strong desire to return to the secular world.
Such an argument, as one of the archangels, Gold is already arguing too lazy.
He just wants to complete the task of this trip.
Only angels who have seen the truly powerful artifact know how powerful it is. The newborn angels can only use weak magic, and they don't know what the artifact means to a civilization.
In this era when all five artifacts are lost, the recovery of the World Tree represents the possibility of the only artifact appearing.
If the angel gets it, is it still a matter of discussion whether to return to the world?
Would the angels come to face this kind of snub?
The young angel doesn't understand at all!
The angel mission entered the palace in a low-key manner, and then settled in in a low-key manner, waiting to be received by the Queen of Jian.
On the other side, members of the Shining Gold Mission are enjoying a state banquet.
Queen Christina attended the reception in person.
On the long dining table, exquisite gold dishes hold exquisite food. The servants and maids shuttled back and forth, and the guests of honor exchanged cups, cup after cup.
Except for the two elders of the Shuojin Elderly House, the other members of the Shuojin Mission are all working in the World Bank, so they are very clear about the rules of the secular world.
No matter how happy you are drinking at the banquet, you won't talk about the business. The Golden Shield Empire has given them enough respect, and they have also done a good job of etiquette.
A state banquet, both parties eat and drink to their heart's content.
The Shuojin people went to their residence to rest, and the people from the empire held an imperial meeting and assigned tasks to everyone. Regardless of the purpose of the Shuojin people's visit to the empire this time, they must first discuss the results in terms of money.
The money spent on receiving the Shuojin people this time cannot be spent in vain.
The meeting ended, and Luke was entangled by Prince MacDonald.
"Big brother, big brother..." Prince Macdonald called out his big brother very kindly and naturally, he pulled Lu to a secluded corner, took out a box and handed it over: "I'll bring you some specialties from the Kingdom of Lucen ,hope you like it."
"When did you come to the imperial capital?" Luke asked Prince Macdonald, took the box and opened it, and there were all precious gems and pearls inside: "I didn't expect that the Kingdom of Lusien is not only rich in food, but also has such special products. .”
Regarding Luke's ridicule, Prince Macdonald laughed along with him: "I know that as the governor of Raging Waves City, you must not look down on this thing, but I bought it with my own money, and I am full of it." mind."
Luke knew that Prince MacDonald must be asking for something from himself, so he accepted a box of gemstones and pearls and asked, "What do you want me to do for you?"
Seeing that Luke accepted his tribute, Prince MacDonald immediately expressed his request: "I heard in Lusien that my sister... Our Queen was appointed by His Majesty as the Queen of the country, so I deliberately drove away from Lusien. Come.
Thinking that since I am the favorite younger brother of Her Highness the Empress, how can I be a powerful official in the imperial court, I never thought that my sister would not miss our family relationship at all.
So I thought of you, brother.
Arranging something for me to do in the imperial court is not a matter of your brother. "
Hearing that Prince MacDonald bribed himself and made this request, Luke couldn't help laughing: "You are the prince of the Kingdom of Lusien, if you want to be an official, go to your father.
Her Royal Highness the Queen needs to avoid suspicion in the early stage of supervising the country. How can she reuse people from the Lusien Kingdom, especially her own younger brother. "
"So that's the reason." When Luke mentioned it, Prince MacDonald suddenly realized, and then said: "But brother must help me, just give me an official position."
"Why?" Luke saw that Prince Macdonald didn't want to be an official: "If you don't make it clear, I won't be able to handle it..."
Seeing Prince MacDonald’s hesitant look, Luke took out the box that was put away: “I’d better return this thing to you.”
"No, no, no, I said..." Prince MacDonald had no choice but to tell the truth: "Fania's death in a coup has caused a great shock in our royal family of Lusien. In fact, our royal family is not doing well. Where to go, but no one pays attention.
Now I am making money with my elder brother, and I am in charge of many cooperation projects with Raging Waves City, so there are many rumors.
I came to the Imperial Capital just to seek refuge with Sister Christina and let her protect me. "
Luke sneered: "Protect you? Protect you, and protect you as King Lucien by the way?"
Prince MacDonald immediately denied: "I don't have such an idea! I am very satisfied to be the richest prince."
Luke put the box away again: "No matter what you think, the emperor is right. You are not suitable to serve in the imperial court now, so follow me first... Be my follower for a while, and you won't feel wronged Bar?"
"How can you feel wronged!" Macdonald's family heritage awareness is very high, and when he encounters the opportunity to hug his thigh, he hugs him quickly, regardless of his identity: "The follower who can make me the Marquis of Meteor is now pulling me back to inherit the throne. I'm not going back!"
What a fine person!
"Okay. I don't have many requirements for my followers. Follow me to see more and learn more. Don't ask what you shouldn't."
"I understand, big brother. Whatever happens in the future, just let me do it, don't treat me like a prince."
"Go, come home with me first."
"Yes, Lord Marquis!"
Prince MacDonald got into the game very quickly.
It's just that the two met Agatha before they left the palace, and it was Yin who was with Agatha.
This time the Shuojin people visited the Golden Shield Empire, and both Pan and Yin were members of the mission. They met Luke at the banquet, but they didn't communicate much.
"Meteor! Director Yin is looking for you. I was afraid that she would get lost in the palace, so I brought her here...Prince MacDonald, are you there?"
Prince Macdonald's expression when he saw Agatha was completely different from the expression when he saw Luke.
"Agatha, why are you so rude! It's fine if you don't call me uncle, how can you just call my elder brother's name directly?
Call Meteor Marquis, Meteor Governor, even Uncle Meteor. "
Agatha stared blankly at Luke and Prince MacDonald, a little confused about the current relationship.
Luke said helplessly to Prince Macdonald: "I have something to discuss with Her Royal Highness the Princess and Director Yin. You wait for me in the car outside the palace first."
"Yes, brother." Macdonald walked away proudly.
Luke could only explain with an embarrassing smile: "Prince Macdonald came from the Kingdom of Lusien to find Her Majesty the Queen to beg for an officer. I was afraid that he would cause trouble, so I kept him by my side as a follower.
This kid doesn't know the situation in the palace, I will teach him a good lesson when I go back. "
Agatha knew Prince MacDonald's character. He was very flamboyant in the past few days when he came to the imperial capital, for fear that others would not know that he was the younger brother of the Empress Jian.
Even if he is the eldest princess, he doesn't take him seriously.
but…
"Prince Macdonald as a follower, probably only you can think of it, and only you dare to do it."
"He will follow me to make money in the future, so he must respect me a little bit."
Talking about making money, Agatha thought of her purpose of coming to find Meteor: "The director of the Raging City Branch of the World Bank, you knew each other in Raging City. I have already brought him, and I will leave the rest to you.
There is still something to do in Rose Manor, so I will leave first! "
Agatha left Yin behind and left. When she reached the corner, she glanced at the two of them quietly before walking away.
"Elder Mu wants to meet Her Majesty Queen Qingkong."
"I'll arrange it."
After two sentences, he fell into silence.
Yin looked at Luke, eager to see him again after a long absence.
After a while, Yin said to Luke: "I didn't expect it to be so long since we saw each other last time, from before winter to the end of winter, from Raging City to Saint Lun City.
You are a high-ranking official of the Golden Shield Empire, and I am a member of the Shining Gold Mission. "
Luke could feel that Yin was trying to control his emotions, and there was a sense of sadness in his words.
"I was away for about three months because of work, and I had to stay here because something happened to the imperial court. It seems that something happened to you? We can talk while walking, as friends, do you have any questions?" You can talk to me about anything that doesn’t go your way.”
Luke walked into a garden with Yin Yin.
In order to welcome the Shuojin people and the angel mission this time, the palace used magic to produce some flowers, filling the garden with floral fragrance and beautiful scenery.
The two of them were walking in the garden, and Yin also talked about his thoughts.
"The Shuojin people have special emotional training, in order to reduce emotional fluctuations and achieve the best twin resonance. But... I discovered that some emotions are uncontrollable when I arrived in Rage City.
My heart beats but I can't be quiet.
At first I didn't know what it felt like, it just happened little by little, and it got bigger and bigger. It terrified me, and it made me enjoy it like an addiction.
I... I may have touched the biggest taboo of Jin people. "
