Chapter 554: The Responsibility of the Holy Covenant

The situation of the Magnificent Wall was even worse than Duke Peidinan initially expected.

The elves are an ancient and proud race - pride rather than pride - the long-standing cultural heritage and powerful natural power make this race as confident as the Gondor humans back then, and full of a sense of responsibility. Since the destruction of the Gondor Empire and the bipolar civilization of the entire continent collapsed halfway, the Silver Empire has become the defender of the magnificent wall and the monitor of the wasteland driven by the sense of responsibility of the great power. For seven hundred years, they have meticulously performed their duties on the sacred covenant. Duke Pei Dinnan knew very well that if it were not for the barrier that really made a big change, the proud elves would never send envoys to warn the countries - or ask for help.

The Grand Duke paid attention to the expression of Emperor Rosetta. From the expression of His Majesty the Emperor, he knew that the other party had confirmed the authenticity of the elves' words, so he turned to Shiva: "Your plan is to strengthen the barrier - so how do you need to strengthen it? What do you want us to do specifically?"

"We plan to set up amplification devices near several major Sentinel Towers. We have the technology of amplification devices, but we do not have enough manpower and resources - even if the manpower and resources are enough, we do not have time to allocate them to the entire magnificent wall," said the Elf Envoy. "The wasteland in the middle of the continent blocks traffic, and it takes a long way to get from the Silver Empire to the north of the continent. We arrived here in half a month by taking a giant eagle - but the giant eagle cannot be used to transport large quantities of goods."

At this time, Rosetta Augustus finally spoke: "Tifeng is happy to repair that barrier, after all, that barrier is also our lifeblood - but what about other countries?"

"We have sent messengers to every human kingdom," said Shiva. "The messengers sent to the Agure Tribe State should have arrived a few days ago, and the messengers sent to Ansu were earlier than us, and now they should have arrived."

"The Ogure Tribe State has been paying attention to the magnificent wall for many years. They should respond to your warning soon, but Ansu..." Emperor Rosetta said in a low voice, "That country is in a civil strife. I don't know if they can still perform their duties as the Divine Covenant."

"...We have received news about this," Shiva was silent for a moment, saying with regret. Due to the existence of the Magnificent Wall Communication Network, the elves are quite well-versed in the news of the entire continent. The Ansu Civil War was introduced to the Silver Empire half a year ago. "We are very sorry for this. The descendants of the former allies should not be in opposition to this point... But no matter what, the safety of Magnificent Wall is related to the life and death of civilization. They should know... Now is not the time to continue the civil war."

"As you said, the people of all human beings are descendants of the Gondor Empire, and the ancient glory of their ancestors should not be dusted by prejudice and short-sightedness. I believe that those brilliant bloodlines are still flowing in the blood vessels of the Ansu people - as long as they have not completely forgotten all this, they will know what to do," said Rosetta Augustus with a solemn expression, and then stood up, "And as for Tifeng... we will perform our duties as the Divine Covenant to repair that barrier."

The envoy stood up and bent down in front of Emperor Rosetta: "You are worthy of the name of Augustus."

Rosetta nodded: "Please go and rest first, I want to discuss specific material transfers and personnel arrangements with my consultant."

Several elves left under the guidance of the waiter, and for a moment, only Emperor Tifeng and Duke Pei Dinnan were left in the reception room.

The emperor sat back on his chair, his upper body sinking deep in the shadow of the back of the chair: "Pei Dinanqing, do you think the situation of the magnificent wall has deteriorated to this point?"

"The elves won't joke on this issue - and in their style, they wouldn't have come to seek help from the human kingdoms if the barrier had not deteriorated to a certain extent."

"I think so too," Rosetta nodded slightly. "The astrology wizards reported the abnormal changes in the sun, and the garrisons on the border also witnessed the abnormal movement of the magnificent wall. The evidence is here and cannot be ignored."

"Then we really want..."

“There is no doubt that the sacred covenant is fulfilled,” Rosetta said. “I have seen the drawings brought by the elves. The restoration work under Tiphon will be divided into two parts, one in the southwest, one in the southwest, and the other in the northwest, close to the Winter Wolf Castle—I will go there in person.”

Pei Dinnan was stunned for a moment, and looked surprised: "Your Majesty, are you going to go in person?"

"That's right," Rosetta nodded slightly, "that tower was where the ancestor Tifeng died, so I must go in person."

This is a reason that cannot be dissuaded.

Seven hundred years ago, the four countries initially decided that the territory of mankind is far less safe than it is now. In order to stop the wasteland that is constantly infiltration outward, the elves and other countries jointly built the current magnificent wall. One of the key nodes was built on the northwest border of Tifeng, the Sentinel Tower at that critical node for three years. It was the last completed in all Sentinel Towers and the last step to close the entire magnificent wall. For this last step, Tifeng once paid the most painful price.

When the magnificent walls were activated one by one, and the chaotic magic energy and endless distorted monsters in the wasteland were blocked in the scorched earth, the power of the demon tide had carried out the largest counterattack. The chaotic magic energy and distorted bodies that had nowhere to go rushed to the last gap in the barrier, and launched a fierce battle with the human and the elves coalition at the northwest border of Tifeng. The counterattacked distorted bodies' legion even approached the foot of the Sentinel Tower. In order to hold back the attack of the distorted bodies and to buy time for the elves technicians to activate the tower, the entire guard knight led by the ancestor Tifeng, even the king himself, died under the tower.

"Andersha and the Winter Wolf Legion led by her will be responsible for my safety," Rosetta said slowly at the old duke in front of him, "and you will be responsible for the State during my departure, Pei Dinnanqing."

Facing Emperor Tifeng's deep gaze, Pei Dinnan Wendel took a deep breath.

"I will live up to your trust, Your Majesty."

Duke Peidinan left.

Only the ruler of Tiphon was left in the room.

Rosetta Augustus sat in the wide backrest chair, staring at the fire in the fire not far away expressionlessly. The fire jumped continuously. In the changing light and shadow of the flames, two hazy phantoms suddenly rose, and the overflowing fire light fell on the ground along the furnace, and came to Rosetta step by step.

They condensed into human shapes, with long golden hair, pointed ears, and the same appearance.

All things finally perished, Gemini chuckled softly and said to the emperor in front of him: "Look, we said that there will be problems in the wall and the problem that the Silver Empire cannot solve... They really came to you."

Rosetta glanced at the elf Gemini in front of him with an expressionless face: "You don't seem to care that you are also from the Silver Empire."

The Elf Gemini was still smiling: "Our career is beyond the concept of nationality. From a certain perspective, aren't you the same as us?"

"I am different from you. I trust the power of the country," Rosetta said lightly. "You are here to discuss these things with me, right?"

"Of course not," the voices of the Elf Gemini overlapped, with a certain rhythmic version of the feeling, "we want to ask you, have you...give up Ansu?"

"Of course not, but now is not the time to start," Rosetta said. "Cost and benefit have not reached the best balance...the blood of the Ansu people has not yet dried..."

The elf Gemini came to Rosetta, walking around the Emperor Tifeng as if he was strolling in the garden, and sighed in surprise: "Still calm..." "Accurate calculation..." "Full of confidence..." "Incredible..."

Finally, they spoke in unison: "You are such an incredible person - after facing the truth, you have woken up to today."

Rosetta looked at the elves indifferently as if he was watching a farce, and finally waved his hand: "If there is nothing more important, don't waste time with me - now there are a group of high-level rangers and elves messengers in this palace, and they will not be ruthless to the exiles."

The Elf Gemini finally stopped "stroll by the chair". They smiled and faced Rosetta, and stepped backwards towards the fireplace: "Ah, your threat is really fruitful, we are happy to cooperate..."

Their figures gradually faded in the air, and little by little merged with the flames behind them. Before they left completely, Rosetta spoke: "Don't forget what you are going to do."

"Please rest assured that everything will die in the end and pay more attention to reputation than you. Ansu's blood will continue to flow..." The figure of the elf Gemini has disappeared, and their voices continue to come from the fire, becoming more and more distant and ethereal, "We only take away what we need, and the rest belongs to you..."

The figure and voice of the elf Gemini finally disappeared completely, and the faint magic fluctuations in the room were completely calmed down.

Rosetta Augustus was silent alone in the room. After a long time, he whispered to himself: "There must be...a powerful empire..."

He stood up and came to the fireplace that had lost its magical reaction and turned into ordinary flames. He watched the leaping flames in the furnace, then bent down and placed the next block with sharp spikes carefully in front of the furnace.

At the same time, in the Ansu capital, Saint Sunil, a gray-brown giant eagle flapped its wings and cut through the sky.

The citizens of St. Sunil are familiar with griffins, because griffins and air vehicles are the most commonly used messengers and air vehicles by the upper nobles and royal families, but few humans know giant eagles from the south - those huge birds of prey swept over Iron Cross and Crown Street like dark clouds. The tail feathers and chest abdomen of the giant eagles are also decorated with green and silver-white ribbons. They fly straight to the direction of the Silver Fort, attracting the curiosity and attention of countless witnesses.

Only the person with the best eyes saw the figure on the back of the giant eagle - the elf.

On the upper terrace of Silver Fort, Victoria Wilder quietly stared at the sky, watching the raptors that had flew over half of the continent land on the griffin platform on the flank of Silver Fort - there was no giant eagle perch here, so he could only let the griffin platform fly for the elves to land. The white-feathered griffin who were temporarily driven to the North Tower were poking his head out of the window on the tower and screaming loudly at the gray-brown giant eagles.

"The Elf Messenger has arrived."

Next to Victoria, Grand Duke Berdevin Franklin whispered to himself.

"It seems that the situation of the Magnificent Wall is really not good," Victoria's tone was filled with a hint of coldness. "What's ridiculous is that until yesterday the nobles discussed at the meeting what was in the warning of the Grand Duke of the South."

On the griffin platform, the elf messengers were jumping off their mounts lightly one by one. One of the female elves with short golden hair looked at the griffin that was noisy on the tower with a little dissatisfaction: "The griffin in the north is so ugly."

"Griffons have always been the best at scolding people," said another messenger helplessly. "Our giant eagles probably occupy their nests."

The short-haired elf curled his lips and turned his head to look at his giant eagle. The latter turned his head and looked at his master for unknown reasons.

The short-haired elf couldn't help but sigh: "Bai Chang is so big, he can't even quarrel."

"Gugu?"
