Chapter 668 Between the Light and the Light (VII) [Going up the mountain today
After that, the journey was still smooth. Although there were still people demonstrating and protesting around, no one dared to come forward to stop him. However, even so, the atmosphere in the car was still very bad. Marlene stared out the window with a gloomy face, with blazing flames shining in her eyes. Lijie frowned and did not hide her dissatisfaction at all. This was very rare for the girl who had always been very cautious. However, Anne was coming soon and she was already leaning on the back of the chair and fell asleep. Seeing her sleeping with her head tilted and drooling, it made people feel speechless and didn't know what to say.
Soon, Casablanca, the capital of Light, was presented to everyone in this way.
In terms of appearance, Casablanca and the Golden City are quite similar, such as their main colors are white, with white and tall walls, wide streets, and scattered houses. However, the Golden City is more of a natural scenery. Under the golden castle, the lush forests, mountains and peaceful and beautiful lakes, forming a wonderful picture. In contrast, the City of Light is more like a miracle of human civilization. In this city, the most eye-catching sight is not the natural scenery, but tall buildings. Those white and tall buildings stand out from the crowd, and they can be seen at a glance.
The most eye-catching one is the Temple of Dragon Light. It is located on the east side of Casablanca, which is different from those angular castles. The Temple of Dragon Light is more like a blooming flower, with petals spreading layer by layer in all directions, revealing the holy and beautiful stamens inside. On both sides of it, the round pillars support the palaces on both sides that penetrate deep into the sky, which is where the other two archangels live. Unlike Lydia, these two archangels have always lived a quiet life. They secretly protect the Dragon Light Soul from harm, and at the same time command the remaining army of Angels.
In the game, many players have discussed why the remaining two archangels did not "set up their own doors" like Lydia, because if they each established a country controlled by the Archangel like Lydia, then there was no need for the Kingdom of Light at all. As long as the three archangels united the three countries, they could still establish a kingdom of gods that belonged to the Dragon of Light, and there was no need to live a tragic life like now. Especially before that, when the Council of Light gave the Dragon of Light Soul to the Dragon of Dark Night, the existence of the two archangels.
The feeling is already low, and almost no one remembers their existence. This is really a strange thing. Logically speaking, the two archangels should protect their masters in this case, but they disappeared. Some players said that they were secretly removed by the Council of Light. Some players said that they were discouraged after seeing Lydia defeated and died. They gave up their mission and chose the path of depravity. But even players in the Land of Light could not tell where these two archangels went.
Although under the sunlight, the Dragon Temple of Light in front of you showed dazzling light, for some reason, Rhode always felt that it looked a little dim, as if looking at the opposite side through a layer of sunglasses, always a little dim. I don’t know why…
In addition to the Temple of Dragon Light, there are two buildings that are also noticeable. They are not luxurious or beautiful, but they are strong and grand. The round columns surround and support the tall triangular dome. The top-down quadrangular roofs merge with the rectangular wide and thick architectural walls, full of a sacred and solemn feeling. This is the location of the Council of Light and the House of Parliament. It is also the true political center or core of the Kingdom of Light................
However, these are not the most famous ones in the City of Light.
Rhodes withdrew his gaze and moved to the south of the sea. Soon, he saw a tall building there, a huge right hand carved from a stone, holding a torch high, facing the temple of the Dragon of Light.
It is the most famous beacon of architectural freedom in this country.
It was built at the centenary celebration of the establishment of the Council of Light. At that time, the Council of Light built this lighthouse to "warmly celebrate the freedom of humanity to finally gain independence and independence. They no longer need to act according to the eyes of the Creation Dragon Soul and the Archangel, but can dominate their own future!"
Seeing the lighthouse in front of him, Rhode couldn't help but shook his head. He didn't understand what the Dragon Soul of Light thought. As the Dragon Soul of Creation, he participated in the War of Creation, sacrificed so much, and finally got peace. Has the Dragon Soul of Creation not seen the nature of human beings? Human beings are full of desire. In essence, Rhodes and these people in the Council of Light were actually no different. They all yearn for power, consolidate their power, the fewer things that can restrict themselves, the better, and the more things that can be controlled by themselves, the better. How could the Dragon of Light not understand this? Does she have a low IQ? Rhode doesn't think so. If the Dragon of Light is really low, then the Dragon of Light could not have such a large area of land at the end of the War of Creation. It has long been squeezed into the corner of the Dark Night Dragon Kingdom and the Kingdom of France.
So why does the Dragon of Light do this?
I'm afraid that this question can only be clearly understood when traveling back to the Creation War to find the Dragon of Light at that time. Because the dragon soul inherits the dragon soul only inherits the dragon soul knowledge and power possessed by the previous one, and will not obtain the memory of the previous one. Therefore, even if Rhodes asks the current Dragon Soul of Light, he may not know about it at once.
The carriage slowed down and finally stopped in front of the light council.
Then, the car door opened.
Lydia walked out of the carriage and soon saw the MPs in gorgeous clothes standing in front of the light council. They looked at themselves with enthusiastic smiles. When they saw her walk out of the carriage, the MPs also smiled at her, which was really deep in their hearts, especially after they knew what had happened just now. In addition to the people of the Light council, on both sides of the stairs were the lords and representatives of other major territories. Seeing the arrival of Lydia and others, they also looked different. Some were worried, some were ridiculed, and some were watching the show without any worries. Obviously, they all knew what had happened just now.
"On behalf of the Council of Light, I welcome you, dear Angel."
The old president of parliament walked forward with a smile, saluted Lydia, then raised his head with a look of regret and apology on his face. He looked at the people behind Lydia and showed a very sorry and helpless smile to them.
"On behalf of the Council of Light, I am sorry for this, but I also want to acknowledge that as a free country, we have no reason to stop the activities organized by the people. Unless they do too much, we will not do much. This is also to avoid unnecessary disputes, but I believe that the people are rational and will not make some reckless and ignorant actions..."
When he heard this, many people suddenly looked dark.
None of the people who followed Lydia this time were idiots. They immediately understood what the old president said in the words of the old president. Although on the surface, the old president apologized for everything that happened before. But looking at the content of his defense for the people, you can tell what the old immortal meant. He said that the people would not make reckless and ignorant actions, which means that the demonstration was an organized, disciplined and very smart move by the people. The delegation that was originally scolded all the way was in a bad mood. At this moment, he heard that the old president made excuses the mob openly and secretly, and affirmed the actions of those people in his words. As long as he was a clear-headed person, who would not know what this old bastard was thinking? Isn’t he secretly mocking himself?
"I can certainly understand, President of Parliament. Whether it is managing a city or a country, it is very difficult."
Lydia's smile remained unchanged, as if she hadn't heard the meaning of the old man's words at all, and she gently exposed the matter. Then she stretched out her right hand gracefully, but this was not a handshake gesture. On the contrary, Lydia stretched out her right hand, with the back of her hand facing up and the palm of her hand facing down. She put her hand in front of the old president, smiling without saying a word.
“………………………………………”
This time, the faces of the members of the Council of Light changed slightly. However, the lords and representatives of other territories lit up at this time!
Of course they knew what Lydia meant, and they wanted the old president of parliament to give a kiss!!!
On the Dragon Soul Continent, kissing is a solemn and formal custom, and it is only qualified to be used by the upper class. In such serious and formal occasions, only people with noble identities are qualified to use this kind of etiquette. But in this way, problems arise.
The kissing ceremony is a kind of etiquette between the upper and lower classes among the upper and lower classes. At this moment, Lydia made this action, which implies that she has a higher status than the old president. She is clearly telling the Council of Light that she is the direct subordinate of the Dragon Soul of Light, one of the three archangels! And your Council of Light is just a subordinate under this! Your status is lower than mine!
Lydia has never done this before in the Dragon Soul Temple!!
If the old president of parliament wants to accept Lydia's courtesy, he must kneel on one knee and kiss Lydia's fingers. This is a naked humiliation to the light council!!!
They worked hard for so long, but in the end, the representative of the Council of Light actually bowed to an angel!!
If the old president of the parliament does this, it means that the light council is completely disgraceful! And if he does not do this, it will undoubtedly be equivalent to formally breaking with the Duchy of Mun in front of everyone. Lydia is the grand duke of the Duchy of Mun and the lord of a country. Under the gaze of all the lords and representatives on the continent of Light, if the old president of the parliament rejects Lydia's etiquette, then the relationship between them will be completely broken at this time!
The people of the Council of Light did not expect that they had just laughed at Lydia and others, and the retribution came so quickly. This was a formal diplomatic occasion. So many people were watching here. What should the old president of the parliament do when facing Lydia's action? Lydia made a perfect kissing hand. He had no time to take advantage of the situation and shake hands. It was originally a good opportunity to resolve the crisis, but who is Lydia? The Archangel, her strength was second only to the Creation Dragon Soul, and the old president of the parliament was just an ordinary person. He was less than ten levels.
How could Lydia give him this opportunity?
For a moment, the air solidified.
Rhode looked at the scene in front of him with interest, and the delegation also smiled at the Council of Light at this time, looking at the Council of Light in a natural way. In their opinion, this was a natural etiquette. Lydia is the Archangel who serves the Dragon Soul, and naturally has a much higher status than your Council of Light. It is natural for the kissing hand tribute, and the Archangel's kissing hand tribute is considered a gift to you. Don't you kneel down to thank me? Mortals?
The air seemed extremely solemn, and even the representatives standing beside watching the fun showed unbelievable eyes. They did not expect that when the two sides met, they would not even have a foresight and directly entered the stage of fierce conflict. At this moment, all their eyes were on the old president of parliament. Should he do this?
No one can say it.
Many people know that the current president of parliament has unstable status in the parliament because of a series of foolish policies and decisions after he came to power. His approval rating in the Kingdom of Light has dropped to the lowest point, and even within the parliament, some people have begun to discuss substitutions. At this time, if he chooses to surrender, it means that the re-election of the old president of parliament is basically completely finished and there will be no possibility anymore. A person who has betrayed the tradition of the Council of Light in full view of the public is not qualified to manage this country.
But what if he refuses?
The hostile relationship between the Council of Light and the Principality of Moon will be completely substantive, and they may have the barrier of the Dark Night Dragon Kingdom as a result of this. Not only that, it is almost certain that Lydia will definitely cut the amount of money given to the Dragon Soul of Light this time. This will undoubtedly be a heavy blow to the Kingdom of Light, which is already in a financial crisis!! If they do not have enough money to fill the fiscal deficit, then it can be foreseeable what kind of turmoil will cause in the next year. They may even affect the stability of the entire Dragon Kingdom!!!
Should you choose your own political future? Or the future of the Land of Light?
Looking at the palm of the crystal-like white jade in front of him, the old president raised his head. What he saw was Lydia's gentle and spring breeze, but firm as a mountain-like smile. This was the answer of the archangel. She was firm and decisive, without any doubt, nor any wavering. His eyes passed by Lydia and looked behind her, where he saw his old opponent. Armond was leaning on a staff at this moment, silent. Behind him, the young people looked at themselves quietly. Their eyes were full of firmness and clear will.
This is the future of the Duchy of Mun……………
The old president sighed deep in his heart. He finally understood why this time, Lydia did not let the members of the three major families come like before, but brought such a group of young people. They were young and had strong enough will. Moreover, they had personally experienced the scene just now... So, where is the future of our country of light? The old president did not look back, but he could feel the eyes of his colleagues behind him, with anger, helplessness, surprise, worry, and ridicule. Are they really for the benefit of this country? Everyone thinks that their decision-making is stupid, which has led to the country of light falling into its current situation. However, they did
What did it do? Every time, every time he proposed a bill, those who were touched with the interests could not wait to veto it. They would make up a thousand and ten thousand reasons to protect their interests. But what could he do? Can he object? Can he ignore the opinions of those people? If he does this, he will be regarded as a tyrant by them. Not to mention re-elected, he may be directly removed from office and ousted from office. Even now, even if it is related to the glory and dignity of the Council of Light and even the entire Kingdom of Light, they are not able to stand on the same front with themselves with the enemy. On the contrary, there are still people among them who see their own jokes?
Have they forgotten that they are also a member of the Council of Light, a member of the Kingdom of Light?
I'm old...
This thought flashed in the heart of the old president of the council. Suddenly, the old man felt that his breathing was extremely heavy. At this moment, he already knew what to do.
The old man lowered his white-haired head.
Seeing this scene, many people's pupils shrank. Some clenched their fists, some subconsciously stepped forward and took a half step, while others opened their mouths and wanted to shout something. However, they could not stop the old president from bending down and kneeling on one knee!!!
Seeing this scene, the members of the House of Representatives behind the old president felt their whole bodies chilling, and their blood was rushing towards their heads. They opened their eyes wide in disbelief and stared at the scene in front of them.
This kneeling dropped the pride and glory of the Council of Light for hundreds of years!!
Does he know what he is doing?!!
"Welcome to you, Your Highness."
The old council said hoarsely, and then he reached out respectfully, held Litia's right hand, and then kissed her fingertips.
All this ended at this moment.
ps: At 1:00 noon today, my dad walked into the house and the first thing he did was to announce that he would go up the mountain to escape the summer heat in the afternoon. My friends and I were shocked at that time... My dad is worthy of being my dad. He has always been so decisive in the wilderness. So from tomorrow, I will stay in the wilderness for a week...
