Chapter 1045: Wake up from a big dream (1/2)
When Gao Wen walked into Office No. 1 of the Government Affairs Department, Hety, who was reviewing the documents, immediately noticed something unusual about him. This "Cecile Butler" looked up at Gao Wen's face: "Ancestor, you yesterday Didn't you rest?"
"...A little insomnia," it was difficult for Gawain to explain to Hetty that he was suddenly awakened by the alarm from the satellite when he slept in the middle of the night, and then watched a thing that looked like a giant mechanical dragon blaze all the way into the distance in space After that, I can only wave my hand with a trace of fatigue, "It's not a problem, I just adjust it."
For powerful transcendents, the exhaustion caused by insomnia is certainly not a big problem, but Heidi still couldn't help being a little worried: "Do you need some tranquilizers? Pittman should have..."
"This is really unnecessary," Gawain immediately waved his hand, then looked at the documents organized on Hetty's desk, and quickly changed the subject, "Any new news?"
To be honest, he is still full of the images he observed through space surveillance last night, the mysterious silhouettes flying across the starry sky and the countless thoughts that follow, but he also understands that he has no conditions to go. Further investigation, at least this is the case at this stage-the power of the government affairs office is not useful at this moment, and the daily affairs of the empire must still be dealt with.
Heidi looked at Gawain’s expression again, as if she was confirming the health status of the ancestor, and after confirming that the other party was really fine, she flipped through the top few documents, and replied, “Yes, we We have received feedback from the leaders of several countries or regions-including the Ogure tribe, the northern city states, the Silver Empire, etc., as well as replies from the dwarf kingdom. From the feedback, the leaders of the countries have called you I am very interested in the "Community Alliance"..."
"Unexpectedly," Gawain laughed. This is good news at last. At least some of the bad mood caused by insomnia has been dispelled. "These countries are either already in the Cecil settlement area or will soon join the north. Routes around the mainland, or technical exchanges and close ties with us...The bridge has been opened up, and it is an inevitable trend that the ties between countries will become closer."
"As you said," Heidi nodded, and then took a separate document from the side. "In addition, this is a remote letter that was just forwarded through the Sentinel Tower this morning, from the Silver Empire. Your Majesty Belcetia Morningstar-is a personal letter specially sent to you."
"Bercetia..." Gao Wen was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but think of memories from seven hundred years ago, and he was alive and kicking, who always followed him to make trouble during the Covenant Meeting of the Trailblazers. Figures circling in various camps, but soon he shook his head, put aside the memory of 700 years out of date, and reached out to take the letter from Heidi.
This letter is of course not the original, but a "copy" transmitted using the Sentinel Tower communication link and the Monet communication system. Although the copy screen is slightly distorted, the handwriting on the letter paper is still clear and familiar. The handwriting of the "Silver Queen" has not changed much from that of 700 years ago, but is more mature and beautiful:
"To His Majesty the Emperor of Cecil, and Uncle Gao Wen who I haven't seen for a long time--"
After seeing this unique beginning, Gawain's eyebrows raised subconsciously, then he lowered his eyelids and read the letter carefully.
A few minutes later, he put down the letter paper, and Heidi cast a curious look: "What did the Silver Queen say? Ah, of course, if it's a private matter, I won't ask..."
Gawain glanced at Hetty with a weird expression, somehow he always felt that the other party's words sounded strange, and then he shook his head: "It's not a big deal, some daily greetings, and a private response about this meeting... she Will come in person."
Heidi was stunned for a moment to realize what it meant by "in person", and his eyes widened in surprise: "In person? You mean the Queen of Silver is going to the 112th outpost to attend this meeting in person?"
She seemed surprised, and there is a reason for this: Although the meeting that is expected to be held in the month of recovery this year, although in principle the leaders of various countries are invited to talk, in fact, the situation in the countries of Loren mainland is complicated and many regions have opened their doors. It hasn’t been long, so some countries that are far away or have joined the Cecil’s settlement area are actually going to send out the king’s deputy or courtiers with considerable right to speak, and the Silver Empire is located at the highest point in the entire continent of Loren. At the southern end, there is an entire Gondor wasteland separated from the northern countries. Coupled with the honor of the Silver Queen, she has rarely left her country for hundreds of years. Almost everyone thinks that this remote ancient empire will only send an ambassador. Here-Heidi didn't expect it to be the Silver Queen herself.
Gawain was not as surprised as Heidi, he even seemed very indifferent: "This meeting will re-formulate the pattern of the entire world, and its long-term impact will not be less than that of the pioneer covenant of the year-for the Silver Empire, this This kind of thing is worth witnessing by their queen. And..."
Heidi asked curiously: "And?"
Gawain glanced down at the letter in his hand, focusing on some of the paragraphs:
"...Many years ago, the elves lost the favor of the natural gods, and our scholars and theologians have discussed this for many years... I am particularly concerned about the changes in the north of the mainland in the past two years, and I am communicating with Sonia In, I also learned about the reformed Holy Light Sect and the transformation of various churches by the Cecil Empire..."
He raised his head and said thoughtfully: "The elves might become the first group of alien members of the Theocracy, which I didn't expect."
Heidi listened to Gawain’s words, and quickly reacted: "...Silver Elves...Yes, their original mainstream belief is the **** of nature, but since the fall of the white star three thousand years ago, their belief structure has changed. A major change. The original imperial state religion has gradually evolved into a purely academic organization that studies Druidic technology within a few hundred years, and the divided priests have led a small number of believers to build one based on primitive natural beliefs. The scattered sects, but I heard Sonia and Solderlin say that these sects that spread in the jungle on a small scale have hardly brought any storms, no natural magic has ever appeared, and no new gods have responded to them. prayer……
"Up to now, there is still no unified and recognized mainstream belief in the Silver Empire. The Elf Royal Family is nominally the highest leader of the druids, and the Silver Queen herself is nominally the highest priestess, but this is only the ritual and As a traditional symbol, most elves no longer believe in Amorn, while a small number of elves are influenced by the human kingdoms. Some believe in the gods of war, some are shallow believers in the goddess of magic, and a few believe in the Holy Light... "
Gao Wen's face twitched: "...It seems that their current belief situation is not optimistic..."
Heidi thought about it for a while, and revealed a weird look: "...it is true."
"For the time being, put their belief dilemma aside," Gao Wen exhaled and pulled the topic back. "My attention has really been too concentrated on the northern part of the mainland, on the human beings... Silver The empire has been in contact with us for so long, but they have always been in my "blind field of vision". It seems that there is a huge "divine influence sample library" hidden in that warm jungle. The special situation of the silver elves... …May be able to take our research a big step forward."
His eyes swept across Bersetia's dignified and beautiful handwriting again, but his thoughts seemed to have crossed the vast wasteland and landed in the elven kingdom on the other side of the continent. He thought of the situation described by Heidi just now. During the three thousand years of "faith quest" of the Silver Elf... he faintly noticed many places that could be connected with the mysteries of the gods.
After a brief period of thought, he temporarily put the things of the elves to the bottom of his heart, and began to consider the situation on another line-Talrond.
After last night’s "insomnia", the figure that passed through space remained lingering in his mind, even though the shape of the thing he saw was so strange that it had even been transformed to the point where it could not be seen at all. But Gawain still saw a trace of the "dragon" from its outline, and it was this little clue that made him unable to help thinking about Tarrond since this morning.
