The greater the power of laws mastered by extraordinary beings, the deeper their understanding of the power of destiny.

Williams swam in the Sea of ​​Elements six months ago and was promoted to the Golden Knight. He gained a new understanding of this sentence: The extraordinary will have a deeper understanding of the law of destiny, and the greater the power it wields.

How can a swordsman develop superb swordsmanship if he is not even familiar with swords?

Victor's ability to create the secret method of the Blood Spirit bloodline and set foot in the realm of saints is enough to prove that he has a unique and self-consistent interpretation of the laws of destiny. It is difficult to deceive the Stormrage Sword Master with what Roland is planning.

Williams secretly admired it. As an uncle, he had only recently vaguely realized that Roland's fake death had a special meaning, and he couldn't see it clearly.

"Victor, thank you for the gift you gave me. The leather armor made from the leather of the legendary centaur is much better than the mithril armor." The Prince Regent stood up and saluted the Stormrage Sword Master, intending to change the subject.

Victor smiled slightly, returned to the main seat, and said leisurely: "The leather of the legendary centaur is highly compatible with earth elements and is considered a top-notch rare item material. However, the armor made of the leather of the legendary centaur seems to have a curse, Fet

The two highnesses of the Lie family wore Orogal leather armor, but they both fell into the hands of the Centaur Great Khan."

Williams' smile froze on his face, and then he shook his head and said: "Victor, you are miscalculating if you want to scare a golden knight... I don't believe that the leather armor comes with a curse. To say that the centaur leather armor will cause

The hatred of centaurs is real, but even if I wear mithril armor and fight centaurs, will they show mercy to me?"

"The Earth Knight is supposed to attract the attention of powerful enemies and withstand the greatest pressure. This set of centaur leather armor suits me just right. Don't think that I will be fooled by you and give it back to you." The Regent laughed.

Victor nodded and smiled: "The so-called curse is of course a joke. You know best whether the golden knight can sense elemental changes and whether the centaur leather armor has strange mental fluctuations." He pondered for a while, raised his head and said, "You need it.

What you need to be wary of is the loopholes at the spiritual level.”

The eyes of the Stormrage Swordmaster shone brightly, and dots of golden light appeared in the void. The magical scene highlighted his extraordinary nature. Williams' spirit then shrank, his expression was stern, and he solemnly said: "I am here to listen to your highness.

teachings.”

Victor's voice was like the whisper of the wind: "I studied the secret method of soul bloodline and found that the will of the soul can be passed on to future generations through blood. There are differences in the growth environment and life experiences of blood descendants, but their personalities may be exactly like their ancestors. This phenomenon

This is especially obvious in families with noble bloodline. For some descendants with pure bloodline, their appearance, small movements, eyes, and preferences seem like the rebirth of their ancestors."

Williams has a deep expression and flashing eyes. Ryan, Roland and himself all look like the ancestors of August. The inheritance scholars of Kite Castle have done relevant research on these things. It should be because Master Tolfvin used medicine to purify his bloodline.

, but when it comes from the mouth of Stormrage Sword Master, it has an extraordinary meaning.

Victor glanced at Williams, nodded and said: "It seems that you have a certain understanding of this, so I will explain to you its mystery and influence from the perspective of the secret method of soul bloodline."

"Everything in the world comes from one source, and I call Him the Creator. The Creator has endless consciousness, and each of His consciousnesses corresponds to all living individuals in the world, including us humans. Only the pan-consciousness of the collection of life can represent the greatness of the Creator.

Will... You can regard each of us as a tiny incarnation of the Creator, so each person's consciousness is also diverse, arising and dying. These consciousnesses are run through by will, bound by personality, and form the human soul."

"High-level knights can communicate with the elemental sea. Compared with other lives, they can be included in the category of divine life. Legendary knights and golden knights are the best among high-level knights. Their will is so powerful that they even have the power of creation."

When Williams heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Are we so powerful?"

"Don't be too proud. The Golden Knight must abide by the world laws set by the Creator." Victor said angrily.

He would not mention the void creations of ancient alchemists, but would only emphasize another common phenomenon, "The soul is closely related to the blood. The will of high-level knights affects future generations through the blood. This is why the children of golden knights are more likely to be promoted than the younger generations.

After five or six generations, the bloodline of the Golden Knight has weakened again, and it will be so easy for his descendants to be promoted to the Silver Knight."

Williams rubbed his chin, nodded and said: "The bloodline of the legendary knight has a more profound influence than the golden knight... No wonder the descendants of Queen Verotica are still at the top after more than three thousand years, and the will of the divine knight is still affecting Basellius to this day.

The blood of the family.”

Victor said: "Master Tolfvin purified the bloodline of the August family through witchcraft and potions, reawakening the will of your ancestors and overwhelming the will of the bloodline from other sources. However, don't forget that your

Your ancestor was a legendary ranger, and you are now the kings of Gombis."

Williams was finally moved, with sadness in his eyes. A gaffe was very rare for the Golden Knights, but it seemed normal for August.

Victor said: "You guessed it... The late King Ryan may have noticed the problem a long time ago, so he planned to make Edward the crown prince instead of you and Roland. Because your bloodline is seriously affected by the will of your ancestors, you must protect the family and the kingdom.

Your knightly beliefs may become a burden for you, ultimately leading to your promotion failure."

"What Ryan didn't expect was that Roland would secretly advance to the gold level in order to help him fight against the pressure from Sylvia. What Ryan didn't expect was that the will of ancestor August would be so strong that it could even shake his knights.

belief."

"Lian and the Knights of Neowest were dueling. Emperor Sasan defended Ryan's three attacks, but Ryan actually swung his fourth sword, trying to take advantage of his opponent's slack to kill him... This is not what a king should do,

Only an adventurous ranger would do this."

"There may be factors of great prophecy in this, but Ryan's mental loophole is the root cause of the conflict of beliefs and being assimilated by the elemental sea."

Williams thought in silence for a long time, sighed, and asked: "Did Lady Sylvia tell His Highness that Ryan was affected by the will of his ancestors and swung the fourth sword at Neo West?"

"She and I discussed the process of that battle, as well as the confrontation between the two sides in the decisive battle at the spiritual level and the elemental sea level."

Victor leaned on the armrest of the high-backed chair, put his right fist against his cheek, looked at the Regent with flat eyes, and said, "Roland also told me that she once dreamed about Ryan..."

Williams looked stunned and murmured to himself: "Is there such a thing?"

Victor sat up straight, nodded and said, "I guess that when Ryan was assimilated by the elemental sea, his will sent an important message to Roland through the origin of the world... As for the content of the message, that should

It's abstract, and we don't know it except Roland himself, but it's nothing more than a father's reminder to his daughter... Roland's mental flaw is more serious than yours. At that time, you were just a Silver Knight."

"Your Highness August, I am very curious. For a long time after the death of the previous king, the August family struggled. Why did you not attack the elemental sea for so long?"

Without waiting for the other party to answer, Victor said: "Because August and Roland are there, you have never been able to make up your mind and establish the belief to protect the family. Unless you ascend the throne and be crowned king, in that case, you will be successfully promoted.

The possibility will be greatly increased.”

Williams was speechless for a moment, shook his head with a bitter smile and said: "Your Highness Randall, you are right. Affected by the will of my blood, I am used to a comfortable and leisurely life. Without the pressure brought by my status as king, it would be difficult for me to

Become a Golden Knight like Ryan."

"...Okay, I admit, I still rely on Roland."

Facing Victor's contemptuous gaze, Williams shrugged his shoulders and said confidently: "It's normal for the Silver Knight to rely on the Golden Knight."

This conversation made many vague things clear. The royal family is favored by the power of fate and can maintain its noble bloodline for a long time, making it easier to advance to the gold level. The favor of fate comes from the expectations and support of the people, and its essence is to gather the people's support.

The power of the soul, like the faith of the church, becomes the shackles of the king.

High-level knights who simply believe in protection regard "shackles" as "crowns", which are beneficial but harmless. However, the three Augusts with pure blood are affected by the will of their ancestors. Wearing the "crown" can certainly easily reach the top of the field, but

As time goes by, loopholes will appear in the mind.

Such mental vulnerabilities can be fatal in some cases.

Ryan August was the first to realize the hidden dangers of the problem, but as the king, he had no way to change his choice. He could only let Edward, whose blood was not so pure, bear the weight of the "crown" instead of Williams and Roland.

When he died, Ryan passed on his experience and insights to his eldest daughter Roland, who was also a Golden Knight.

Therefore, Roland planned the fall of Princess Cambys and transferred the favor and shackles of fate to Williams, while he quietly escaped, trying to make up for the loopholes in his soul and pursue a more sensible state.

Of course, she paid the price and was unable to use fighting energy for a long time, which was like starting over again. Although Roland had the experience of a legendary knight, she had to endure the dangers faced by the rangers, follow the example of her ancestor August, and go through many obstacles.

If Roland succeeds, she will become a legendary knight with a high degree of freedom, which means that she can control more powers of the elemental sea. She is one of the top legendary knights and may not have no further opportunities.

Williams was a bystander who escaped from Roland. Only now did he understand the deeper meaning behind the incident, and the Earl of Golden Eyes from the Centaur Hills was actually like a personal participant. His Highness Randall's wise vision really awes Williams.

"Your Highness, what should I do?" Williams asked humbly and sincerely.

Victor could basically confirm that Roland had already planned to get rid of the princess status. He could not see any clues from the expression of the Golden Knight. However, Williams attacked the elemental sea and was promoted to the Golden Knight because he felt the impact of Roland's disappearance.

pressure, but in this conversation, Victor found that the regent's protective belief was obviously not as pure and firm as that of Marquis Gron. This shows that he has great expectations for Roland's return, and he is still affected by the will of his ancestors, so

Only then would he ask the Stormrage Swordmaster for advice on how to make up for the holes in his soul.

Victor was not sure that Sylvia did not intercept Roland, because Sylvia hated accidents, and a legendary knight who was outside of political rules was the biggest uncertainty.

"I have always been wondering why Roland supported the young Edward to inherit the throne when Archduke Williams, who was clearly supported by the four princes, should be crowned king." Victor shook his head and said with appreciation: "I am now

Understand, she has arranged everything a long time ago... Regent Williams' mental loopholes can be filled, but His Majesty King Williams has no chance to close the loopholes in his soul."

Williams smiled casually and said: "I will train Edward with all my heart. When he becomes the real emperor, I will be able to relax."

"A powerful guardian will always make the king feel oppressed and dependent. Just like His Majesty Friedrich of Dodo, he has not been able to reach the peak field so far. Kite Castle now has you to check and balance the Marquis Goron, but Edward can play a role

His own talent establishes the king's belief in advance." Victor smiled and nodded, and then said: "Before Edward assumes the responsibility of the emperor, His Highness must restrain himself at all times, follow the belief of guardianship, and be a qualified guardian."

Williams chuckled and said: "Actually, August has a wide range of interests, including politics. I am still very interested in watching Gombis transform from a kingdom to an empire."

Victor said with a smile: "Then we might as well do a test to see if His Highness's protective belief can suppress the nature in the blood."

The regent suddenly felt nervous, always feeling that something was not going to happen, but His Highness Randall had been laying the groundwork for so long, and he was curious about what kind of situation the other party would set for him next.

"Okay, I'll wait and see." Williams said enthusiastically.

Victor nodded and said: "I met His Majesty Nachtigal in the El Theocracy. We had an unpleasant exchange, but he admitted to me that the late King Ryan was fighting against Neo West, and he himself was indeed far away.

Sylvia was unable to intervene in time as she was just watching the battle. However, Nachtigal’s actions were unanimously approved by the Holy See, and the Radiant Church must show its strength to the Divine Knights.”

"Nahtigal's explanation was mainly to encourage the Lant Empire to join the southern expansion war led by Gombis. He proposed that if Kite Castle could let go of the hatred of the death of the previous king, Nahtigal was willing to persuade Niovese

I hereby formally dissolve the Rand Empire and cross the river to expand southward as an independent lord."

"I have not given a clear answer on this matter. However, Nachtigal is right about one thing. The Kingdom of Gambis needs to build a large port at the mouth of Fes Lake."

Victor paused and further said: "The two ports of Cambis are both built in the upper reaches of Fes Lake. I estimate that within five years, Cambis' fishing fleet will be able to launch into the vast Philippines."

Fishing operations are carried out in the waters of Si Lake. The aquatic products of Fish Lake are resources that we must obtain. The question is, how can the fleet loaded with fish go upstream and return to the upstream port to unload? Even if scholars and craftsmen solve the problem of large fishing boats traveling against the current

There are technical problems, and the fish in the cabin will also rot and deteriorate due to the long sailing time."

The fish caught rotting in the cabin of Fish Lake is only a small problem caused by the poor location of the port. The transfer of materials after crossing the river to the south is also affected by hydrological conditions and navigation distance. In addition, Randall led

Rose Harbor and Chebman's Horn Harbor are river ports with small scale and limited berths. If the Kingdom of Cambys wants to expand the size of its fleet, it must build a large lake port on the north shore of the lake mouth of Fish Lake.

A few years ago, the old Marquis Solim proposed to the Senate to re-select a site to build a port. Due to the blood feud between the Augustus family and Neowest, his proposal was rejected by the Senate. The York family was under the influence of Victor
