Chapter 242 The Secret of the Soren Royal Family

The next day, the king sent someone again to invite Roddy into the palace.

The carriage protected by the Royal Knights entered the palace directly, but did not go directly to the hall where the king talked to Roddy as before.

In the palace, I changed into a smaller carriage, and the people from the escort of the Royal Knights did not go with me. Only two officers of the Royal Knights accompanied Roddy, took advantage of the inconspicuous carriage and went out from the other side of the palace and went directly to a high ground behind the capital.

The entire structure of the capital of King Sauron looks like an oval-shaped city. In the center of the city is King Sauron's palace, and behind the palace, there is a highland - in fact, a low hillside.

For some reason, when the Wangdu City was built, the city wall had already included this highland, and the woods behind the highland naturally became a Wang family garden.

The carriages in the palace may be to cover up. Because Roddy's convoy entered the palace with great fanfare, no one would have thought that the envoy of the empire of the light would actually take no guards and go out from the other side door of the palace without any guards.

Without any guards, it was the king's meaning: he already knew deeply that Roddy was powerful, and with those guards, he would only fill his storefronts at most.

The carriage went directly to the Wang family garden behind the palace. The environment here was similar to that of Roddy who saw the hunting ground at the Tulip Family fiefdom. There were fences on the periphery to separate the garden. A team of cavalry patrolled back and forth to protect the safety of the Wang family garden.

Roddy wanted to ask the two officers of the Royal Knights beside him, but the two men refused to say a word since they got in the car. What questions did Roddy have, and the other party answered: "This is the order of His Majesty the King, and I am just ordered to ask the Earl to go."

Gradually, we arrived in the garden, and there was a small open area here, and a simple palace was built in the middle. Four outposts around protected the palace in the middle, and a pair of soldiers wearing Royal Knights armor patrolled back and forth.

The carriage stopped here, and Rodie got off the carriage with some questions and walked into the palace with the two officers.

This palace is not so much a palace as a big house.

Although it covers a large area, it only has three floors, and it is not as thick and elegant as other Sauron-style buildings, but it has a bit of exquisite and delicate feeling.

However, after Roddy walked into the building, the layout inside still highlighted the standard Sauron-style building: Iron Blood!

Metal candlesticks, furniture made of black iron wood, tables and chairs, the dark fireplace next to it, and the bright red and heavy carpet under your feet. This urban decoration that intersects black and red all reflects a "iron-blood" feeling.

When he walked to this room, Roddy had already traveled through three inspections.

The two officers leading the way did not follow in consciously. The king was the only one sitting in the room on a chair in front of the fireplace, with his back facing Roddy.

"How is it? Isn't it good here? Lord Roddy? How is it compared to the gardens in your family's fief?" The king's voice came from behind the chair.

Roddy laughed in his heart. The king was still trying to test his identity. Otherwise, why would he say something like "family fiefdom"?

Roddy deliberately chuckled softly: "Your Majesty is joking. I am a little Count, and there is no garden of my own. However, the layout here is somewhat similar to the hunting grounds of the Tulip Family fief."

The king stood up, and Roddy noticed that His Majesty King Sauron did not wear the exquisite robe of the past today, but was wearing a military uniform! A set of golden inner armor was placed on his body, and a bright red cloak was placed behind him.

The king stood there, playing with a small and delicate dagger in his hand, looking at Roddy with a smile on his face.

"His Excellency Roddy, know why I invited you here today?"

Roddy shrugged: "Your Majesty doesn't want me to hunt with you, right? But the season seems to be the time."

The king laughed, but Roddy could not hear any pleasure in his laughter - on the contrary, the king seemed to be covering up his nervousness with laughter.

"His Excellency Roddy!" The king's face turned serious: "I want to take you to visit the biggest secret of the Sauron royal family in hundreds of years! I wonder, are you interested?"

Roddy subconsciously frowned.

Secret? Humph, what's this guy's idea?

I'm afraid there must be some reason to tell others about his secrets. Roddy doesn't believe that the other party will be willing to reveal his secrets for no reason. God knows what the king wants from him.

Roddy narrowed his eyes and whispered, "Your Majesty, I hope you don't let me see anything too amazing - I'm not very brave."

The king whispered: "Are you very timid? It's not necessarily true."

Rodie smiled and said, "I'm not afraid of anything else. I just know someone's secret, and I have to keep this secret, for fear of accidentally revealing it... Such a thing is really too troublesome."

The king burst into laughter again. Then he walked to the fireplace, inserted the dagger in his hand into the mouth of a relief beast on the wall, and twisted it.

A crackling sound came faintly from behind the wall. After a series of sounds, the wall above the fireplace slowly rotated!

The entire wall slowly turned over, revealing a black and broken space behind. Behind a dark passage is a spiral staircase, facing downwards...

Roddy was a little surprised: "This is..."

The king smiled proudly: "His Excellency Roddy, this is the biggest secret of the Sauron royal family in hundreds of years! You are the first outsider to know this secret!"

Roddy took a deep breath, tried his best to endure the curiosity in his heart, and calmly said: "Your Majesty, you suddenly called me here and showed me such a scene. Hehe, what do you mean..."

The king raised his hand and gently stroked the dagger inserted into the mouth of the relief beast. He did not answer Roddy's words, but suddenly asked, "Roddy, do you know the history of the Soren royal family?"

Roddy was stunned for a moment and then said, "Your Majesty is testing me? You are disappointed. After all, the two continents are far apart, and because of the relationship between the two sides, they have rarely had any contact. I really don't know very well about your country's history... What I only know is that the Kingdom of Sauron is the most powerful among the various kingdoms of the Roland Continent. Your country owns half of the land of the Roland Continent, owns the most powerful army in all the Roland Continents, and..." Speaking of this, Roddy deliberately glanced at the king with his eyes.

The king sighed and said, "And... Sauron has always been a kingdom that has been secretly daring to be right with the temple, right?"

Roddy didn't speak, but the expression on his face was clearly the default.

The king nodded, gently raised his fingers with the dagger that was rubbing, and said in a deep voice: "You are right. The Kingdom of Salon can be said to be the only force among the many kingdoms in the Roland Continent that has the capital to compete with the temple... For a long time, the "saints" sent by the Temple to the Kingdom of Salon cannot completely gain authority. This is completely different from the "saints" sent by the Temple to other kingdoms. You must know that in other kingdoms, the authority of the Saints can even surpass the king! Only in Salon! The highest authority in Salon is always the royal family! It can only belong to the royal family!!"

Speaking of this, the king seemed a little excited, but soon he noticed his emotional out of control. He took a deep breath. According to the inner emotions of the Lord, the king slowly said another sentence: "The emergence of this pattern is not only because the Soren royal family "dares" to oppose the temple! More importantly, the Soren royal family is the family that is "most qualified" to fight against the temple!!"

"Oh?" Roddy was indeed a little interested.

The king's voice gradually became low, and his tone was like a little remembrance: "In your opinion, the Empire of Light is undoubtedly the largest empire in the world at present! You have the entire continent, and the imperial power can surpass everything in the empire! A powerful empire has the strength to face any enemy who dares to challenge... But do you know? The Empire of Light is not the only great empire that appears in this world!! Once upon a time, an ancient empire also appeared in this world!!"

"According to the Divine Constitution, the origin of human beings comes from the Roland Continent, and the Divine Constitution records only start from countless small kingdoms in the Roland Continent... Hahaha... it's simply ridiculous!!" The king's eyes were like lightning, with a little anger and sorrow in his voice. He clenched his fists and shouted in a low voice: "Hundreds of years before the era mentioned in the Divine Constitution! The entire Roland Continent is a complete country! It is a huge empire!"

"Oh?" Roddy's eyes lit up. This was something he had never heard of before.

Whether it is the Land of Light or the Land of Roland, although the two Holy See are hostile to each other, the beginning of the book is almost the same. Historical records also began with the "Dark Age" a thousand years ago.

The earliest history of mankind recorded in the Divine Constitution seems to be at the beginning, the Roland Continent was composed of countless small kingdoms and tribal forces. Humans were a mess of sand and each fought for their own war. Then, after a long melee, the first great Pope Moses was born, leading mankind across the Thunder Strait and began a war to conquer the Kara people in the Southern Light Continent... Then humans occupied the Light Continent and exterminated the Kara people. The division within the Divine Constitution turned into two holy temples in the north and south.

There are countless small kingdoms in the southern and northern continents, and the chaos continues.

And just because the emergence of a great emperor in the Empire of Light, Emperor Abbas, a group of invincible commanders of the Tulip Family emerged, and Dandong, a guy who was good at creating miracles. In the end, the Empire of Light in the Southern Continent stood out, unified the southern continent, and established a large empire - this is what Roddy knew, the only huge empire recorded in history that could own the entire continent.

Could it be that the Empire of Light was not the first empire in human history??

The king gradually showed a bit of a tragic smile: "The Divine Book is good! OK!" His tone was a bit solemn: "How many sinful things are done in this world under the name of 'truth'!"

Roddy was very clever and didn't speak, waiting quietly. He knew that the king's story was far from over.

The king's eyes were even stronger: "All ancient records were wiped out with the arrival of the 'Dark Age'. The Divine Cult, a lie that almost distorts history! It can actually deceive the whole world!! Lord Roddy, I tell you, in the ancient times, on this continent under your feet, there was once a great empire! This empire has millions of hard-working subjects! With millions of heroic troops, all the Roland continent!! All races, whether humans, the now famous Chameleon blood clan, or the legendary elves or dwarves, are all under the rule of that great empire! The name of that empire is called the 'Shaga Empire'!!"

"Shaga Empire?" The shock on Roddy's face was real. A strange name, but it should not be unfamiliar to own the entire continent, no matter what, this name should be!

"Yes!" The king smiled slightly: "The place you are standing on is the imperial capital of the Shaka Empire in ancient times! And this highland and this garden were thousands of years ago... well, even longer... here! It is the palace of the Shaka Empire!!"

Several thoughts in Roddy's mind flashed like lightning, and she couldn't help but blurt out: "So what does this have to do with the Sauron royal family...ah! I understand!"

The king nodded and said solemnly: "The Sauron royal family is actually the only blood descendant of the Shaka Empire royal family in ancient times!" He sighed: "No one has ever known this secret. Even the temple thought that the Shaka Empire royal family had long been extinct! Humph!"

He raised his eyelids and looked at Roddy, and said slowly in a low voice: "His Excellency Roddy, I even tell you this secret today. I have regarded you as an ally that I can absolutely trust! So should you show some sincerity? Or, there is no need to continue to keep your secret that is actually no longer necessary to conceal me!"

Roddy was indifferent - he knew that the king told him all this big secret, obviously in order to win over himself and gain his trust - and the other party's exchange conditions were undoubtedly to make him admit that he was the Duke of Tulip!

Seeing that Roddy didn't speak, the king didn't care, but said slowly: "In Roland's ancient language, the word "Soren" means revival! The Kingdom of Sauron and the mission of the Sauron royal family is revival! Revival the great empire of our ancestors!"

The king's face was a little deformed due to excitement. He seemed unable to suppress his inner excitement, and his hand holding the handle of the dagger was trembling slightly.

"Hissergeant Tulip Duke!" The king spoke slowly. He glanced at Roddy. Seeing that Roddy did not object to this title this time, he was satisfied and continued: "Are you interested in going down with me to see the great remains of our Shaka royal family? Look at the secrets of human beings left over from ancient times?"

After saying that, he slowly reached out to the stairs behind the fireplace and made a move, chuckling, "Please!"
