Chapter 1077: Half Uncle Gaowen

The garden was quiet again. In the silence, Gawain stared at the Silver Queen for a long time. He guessed the other party's true intentions at the moment-although he thought he had roughly guessed it, he always felt that he had overlooked something.

The Queen Silver also observed Gawain in silence, her platinum eyes were as deep as water. No one knew what she saw from Gawain at this moment, and no one knew what she wanted to see- After ten seconds of silence, she said softly: "From the perspective of the Queen of Silver, I don't need to confirm whether you are Uncle Gao Wen or not-I'm just dealing with the ruler of the newly emerged human empire in the northern part of the mainland. So I just need to know what kind of ally you are."

Gao Wen looked into the eyes of the Silver Queen: "But what you just said can be an illusion."

"Everything that every ruler does can be an illusion. At this point, it makes no difference whether you are an'extraterritorial wanderer'," the Silver Queen said lightly. "The key lies in my judgment-if I The judgment is wrong, and the cost that comes with it is naturally something I should bear."

"... Don't worry, your judgment is correct, I will be more reliable than you think," Gao Wen said, and then changed the conversation, "but I still have questions-you just stood in the'Silver Queen' I answered my question from a perspective, but as Bersetia, how do you judge your feelings? I am sitting in front of you, but inside you are someone you don’t know. In all fairness, I’m afraid it’s not like changing to someone else. Not easy to accept."

Bersetia pursed her lips in a rare occasion. It seemed that it was extremely difficult for her to answer this question. After a short period of hesitation, she broke the silence: "So I am curious, you... Gawain Cecil? In what way are you occupying...this body, and how do you see everything this body has?"

Gawain picked up the black tea that had been completely cooled. The liquid in the teacup glowed with fine gold-red luster in the sun. He looked at Bersetia and suddenly said: "Do you still like to secretly eat more sweets after dinner? ?"

A strange expression crossed her face for an instant, and then she said lightly: "I still have this habit - but I don't eat it secretly. As the Queen of Silver, I turned this into the rule of the court. "

"Ah, then you finally achieved your'ambitions' back then," Gao Wen was taken aback, and suddenly laughed happily, "You pulled me to talk about your idea of ​​ruling the empire in the future, one of the most important ones. It’s, “After you’re in power, you must legislate to stipulate that there must be dessert after dinner, just like the human court’s.”

"...How much do you know?"

"Almost everything that Gawain Cecil knows," Gawain pointed to his head, "This is what I want to say-you say I'occupies' this body, but it's probably not completely Strictly speaking, his memory and personality are integrated into my consciousness. I have almost all of Gawain Cecil's memory, as clear as personal experience, I know everything about you, and even remember clearly All the emotional impressions at the time. Sometimes I even wondered how much I was affected by these memories and emotions, whether I was a complete self or a brand new individual reborn after fusion."

He looked into Belcetia's eyes.

"Perhaps in a sense, Gawain Cecil has really been resurrected-all his memories and personality have returned to this world, but... these memories and personality have now become a larger consciousness And I am this larger consciousness."

"This sounds like a mathematical concept, sets and subsets," Bersetia thought about it seriously, with no real emotions in her expression, but at last she cocked her mouth and looked at Gawain with a smile." Are you saying this to comfort me, or to win my further trust?"

"This is your judgment. I'll tell you the truth, but as you said, everything that every ruler does can be an illusion-even a little bit bigger, everyone is like this," Gao Wentan Start, "How to judge is your business."

Bersetia looked at Gawain’s eyes carefully, and suddenly seemed to change the subject: “You just said that you not only have all the memories of Gawain Cecil, but also the emotional impressions at that time-then in your memory In, how did you feel to me back then?"

"Lovely and lively," Gawain thought for a while, and said frankly, "There are still many wild ideas."

"Is that so?" The smile on Belcetia's face increased. "If this is your answer, then I am afraid I have to reassess your frankness..."

Gao Wen sighed and started to break his fingers: "Well, the main idea at the time was why the bear kid didn't go back, when did the bear kid play enough, where did the bear kid family go, why did she not eat yet? I'm full, why haven't you run tired yet, why haven't you gone back to sleep, why haven't you harassed Selena or the Augustus family, where did she go again-it's suddenly so quiet, I'm afraid it's not killing him?!"

After speaking, he sighed again and looked at Bersetia, who looked a little sluggish, spreading his hands: "You told me to say this, but if Charlie or Roland can climb out, they must be worse than me. ."

"I thought about it, but I didn't expect it..." Belcetia blinked and suddenly laughed-although she had been smiling most of the time, this time her smile seemed to be the same as before. It's not the same. The smile spreads between her delicate facial features, as if reflecting the clear afternoon sky, "Really... I can't remember how many years I haven't heard such an evaluation."

"At that time, what I was most worried about was not your sudden mischief, but your sudden silence. In each of your silences, a grand plan was brewing that would make at least a hundred people jump around. I even doubted the Elf King Court. Whether there is a problem with the judgment when choosing the heir-but surprisingly, you have performed very well in formal occasions such as contracting ceremonies, and even called it very good," Gao Wen recalled. He said, "Perhaps you really showed the qualified talent as the Queen of Silver at that time? Anyway, I was surprised to see what you look like now."

"Being the Queen of Silver and the Supreme Priestess is very boring, especially for me back then," Bersetia showed a reminiscence look on her face, and she unconsciously rubbed the edge of the golden tea cup with her fingers. Moment, so after getting in touch with the Trailblazers camp, I was a little...too relaxed. At that time, you gave me a very strange impression. I have never seen a "leader" who is as peaceful and casual as you, and can even be described as interesting. , Even Uncle Snow, who is always straight-faced, uses ice sculpture tricks to'create atmosphere'."

"It's normal. The pioneer leaders at the time were not well-regulated "Orthodox aristocrats". The true "Orthodox aristocrats" died in the imperial capital explosion," Gawain said, "As for Snow... …He is not a serious and rigid person, he is just a facial paralysis."

At this time, Bersetia suddenly calmed down and looked at Gawain's eyes steadily. This gaze quickly made Gawain a little awkward: "What's the matter?"

"You are very natural when you speak in Uncle Gaowen's tone. Is this a habit you have developed? Or is it the kind of...'influence' you said before?"

"It's hard to tell," Gawain told the truth, "This is indeed my habit, but I don't know that some of it is the influence of inheriting those memories and personality."

Bersetia was quiet again for a few seconds, as if thinking carefully, and then suddenly said: "I am not a child anymore."

Gawain tried to understand the deep meaning of the other party's inexplicable words, hesitatingly said: "So, you won't be fooled just because of what I just said, does that mean?"

"No," Bersetia shook her head, took her fingers away from the tea cup, letting the liquid in the cup rippling slightly, "I mean—children will get angry because the gift they receive is different from what they imagined. I'm entangled because things are not as good as my ideals, and I will be angry with myself in details and irreparable reality, but I am not."

She raised her head, looked at Gawain, and stretched out a hand: "You are not Uncle Gawain, but at least half of Uncle Gawain. Anyway, welcome back to this world-you are still needed here."

Gawain was a little dazed. To tell the truth, he still felt that he couldn't keep up with the thinking of the silver queen. This queen who has ruled the Elf Empire for seven centuries may be the most ugly and thorough contact he has ever encountered since waking up in this world The pondering mortal--the gods who could not be described in the usual theories obviously couldn't be compared--but he still stretched out his hand and gently held the other's palm.

Then Bersetia sat back, her gaze on the tea cup in front of herself and Gao Wen: "The tea is cold-do you want to change a cup of hot tea? Black tea from the Gaoling Kingdom is only suitable for hot drinks."

"Of course, thank you."

Bersetia lifted her fingers and gently outlined a rune in the air, but for a moment, two high-level elf maids appeared in the garden quietly, and they exchanged hot tea for the host and the guest at the round table. , Bersetia pointed to one of the elves and said: "Uncle Gao Wen, do you remember her?"

Gao Wen frowned. He looked at the elf, and finally extracted some vague outlines from his memory: "...that little girl who made trouble with you all day? I remember it was Elaine... "

"It's her, Elaine-well, it seems that we did cause you a lot of trouble back then," Belcetia said reluctantly. "Seven centuries have passed. It seems that we need to rebuild each other. The impression between them. What I want to say is that Elaine was very happy to know that you were resurrected, and she has been looking forward to seeing you."

"It's nice to see you again," the high-ranking maid smiled, with a hint of shame, "Sorry, back then..."

"It's okay, I'm also very happy to see you again," Gawain interrupted. "It is good to be able to see some familiar faces after all, and I just think it's funny when I recall things back then."

The high-level maid laughed again, and Gao Wen held up the teacup in front of him-he could finally relax and taste this good tea from the Gaoling Kingdom.

With the passage of time, the giant sun gradually approached the ridge on the west side of the town, and a little reddishness gradually appeared in the sun. As the edge of the cloud was illuminated by the setting sun, it was time for Gao Wen to leave.

He and Bersetia talked a lot about the past. During the second half of the afternoon tea, they did not discuss the gods, churches, and grand plans for the future of the mainland until Gao Wen got up and prepared to go to the exit of the garden. , Bersetia said suddenly: "Uncle Gao Wen, how confident are you about how many countries are willing to join the "theocracy" you are thinking of?"

Gawain stopped and turned his head slightly: "I'm not sure, I just have to do it."

"Then you can increase your confidence now," the Silver Queen said behind him, "as I said earlier, the Silver Empire will support you-including in ‘this matter’."

"Don't you worry that this will weaken the control of the Elven King Court in the teaching power?" Although Gawain guessed the result after hearing those things about the Druidic Secrets, he couldn't help but ask.

"My authority comes from the politics, economy, and military of the empire, not from the decorative identity of the'highest priestess'-three thousand years have passed since the fall of the White Star." The Silver Queen said.

For a long time, the elves lacked a complete understanding of the threats she was fighting against, but now that Gawain can bring a systematic plan, she obviously does not intend to miss this opportunity.

Of course Gawain could think of this, so he just nodded slightly: "If this is the case, then I'm relieved."

...

The setting sun was low, and Elf Stronghold No. 112 was gradually shrouded in a layer of indifferent orange. Gawain came to the road outside the Oak Hall, and Amber's figure gradually emerged from the air beside him.

"Hey, hey, did you think she found me?" As soon as she jumped to the ground, Amber leaned over and whispered, "I always think she looked at me with her eyes several times in the middle..."

Gawain glanced at this nervous intelligence chief: "Are you still not sure about your own shadow abilities?"

"...Okay, then I don't think she found it," Amber thought for a while, shaking his head and said, "I have tried everything, except for legends like you, there are only a few high-level transcendents with special abilities. I can find me when I have entered the critical state of the shadow-the silver queen is definitely not legendary, she is at best high-level."

"It sounds like you think high-level is nothing," Gao Wen couldn't help but said, "As a leader with limited energy, it's scary to have high-level strength, okay? Do you think everyone in this world Are both kings and emperors legendary?"

"...That's true," Kohaku thought for a while, and she had to nod her head, and then she seemed to think of something suddenly, her eyes lit up, "Ah, yes! You are such a legend in a pile of national leaders It should be the only one inside. Then you don’t even need to arrange five hundred white knights outside the window when you have a meeting. You can lift them all by holding an eggplant in your arms..."

Gao Wen: "???"
