Chapter 442: The Book of the Heavenly Chariot, Page 3

Henry VIII's funeral was unexpectedly noisy.

Although it was their king who died.

But as a "child in the cup", he was always just a tool to continue the royal bloodline and bloodline.

People respected him, obeyed him, feared him...but they didn't love him, much less worship him.

This is also the reason why the eldest princess Elizabeth did not encounter much resistance to the ruling of the country when "Henry VIII was seriously ill and dying". Elizabeth knew a lot better than Henry VIII.

The future king, and the dead king—

Even a fool knows how to choose.

Of course, say so.

But whether Henry VIII has chosen an heir, and who the heir he has chosen, is still unknown. After all, his will will only be handed over to Sir Silver, and Sir Silver is not obliged to publish his will.

In other words, unless the king has publicly chosen a new king before his death...or his "will" has no practical significance. Because what it represents is not the will of the late king, but the will of Sir Silver.

If Sir Silver is very dissatisfied with the first-in-line heir, or is completely disappointed with him, he naturally has the power to appoint a new king.

After all, this country will ultimately be sheltered by the Silver Sir.

Moreover, the Church of the Silver Lord has also infiltrated into every aspect of Noah's life. The price of not managing the kingdom's policies is that the Church of the Silver Lord will directly intervene in the succession of the royal family.

According to the normal ritual regulations, the new king will not officially ascend the throne until May 1st, the festival belonging to the Silver Sir. And now it's still early spring -- the two months in between are the last fight for the heirs.

If it is May 1st, there has been no major change.

Then it is the eldest princess Elizabeth as the first in line to complete the succession to the throne. But if before that, if there is a big change in the kingdom of Noah, which she supervises, or if there is a big problem on her own side... Then will the Silver Sir finally let her inherit the throne? Not necessarily.

In fact, this is also the reason why His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince Albert was ostracized and suppressed by his older brothers and sisters because he had a good relationship with the Church of the Silver Lord.

As everyone prepares for the ultimate support -- or neutrality -- of the Church of Silver Crest, you run to befriend the judge.

Then you claim at this time that you do not want to inherit the throne and that you have no interest in the throne.

- Does anyone believe this?

Now at the king's funeral, ministers and nobles form gangs. Form different camps according to interests and kinship, and sit in different places. And the three heirs are also surrounded by many people.

They didn't talk and laugh loudly, they just lowered their voices and whispered and discussed in a very low voice. But when there were more people, a humming whisper could be heard.

But after Annan and the others entered, the entire hall was instantly quiet.

Because it was the Silver Sir who walked in with Annan and Salvatore.

People stood up sparsely, then bowed respectfully to Sir Silver and stroked their chests.

"—Salute to the silver coin."

The nobles, the royal heirs, the bishops and the pope saluted Sir Silver in unison.

"In the name of silver coins, I bless you."

Sir Silver smiled, placing his hands on Salvatore's and Annan's shoulders, raising his head and making a loud and clear voice.

People ended their salutes one after another, and looked up curiously at the two people who were particularly close to Sir Silver.

Annan and Salvatore—

The nobles who can attend the king's funeral basically have their own information sources.

At least 80% of them knew Annan and Salvatore... The remaining 20% ​​just didn't know Annan.

However, they were not quite sure why the Silver Sir would appear at the same time as them?

What does this portend?

"Go, Annan."

At this moment, Sir Silver patted Annan on the shoulder.

Annan nodded,

Under the puzzled and even a little surprised gaze of everyone, they calmly walked towards Henry VIII's coffin.

The sky above the capital quickly became overcast.

Overcast, the cool wind blows—

As Annan approached the coffin, it suddenly began to rain at the funeral.

After all, it was a funeral, so the entourage of the guests must all carry black umbrellas with them. This is also a kind of etiquette... Sometimes, it is even necessary to directly pray for rain to maintain a solemn atmosphere.

Those entourage immediately held umbrellas for the nobles in the seats.

Fortunately they move quickly.

When Annan walked to the coffin, the icy drizzle turned into a thunderstorm in the blink of an eye.

Just smelling the smell of this torrential rain will make people unable to help keep silent, and an inexplicable and extremely complicated feeling of depression floats in their hearts.

It's like he's clenching his fists and bowing his head, enduring something...

It was like looking up at the starry sky, expecting something.

Mr. Kai, who was originally guarding the coffin, also nodded to Annan and took two steps to the side.

Mr. Kai's long dark hair fell down to his waist. He was wearing a white robe and a pure white mask, and the bloody smiling face on the mask had turned into a clown-like crying face.

"Do you need me to open it for you?"

Mr. Kai bent down slightly and made a gentle and magnetic voice to Annan.

Following his movements, an invisible barrier emerged above the two and the coffin.

Annan nodded and said respectfully, "Excuse me, Mr. Kai."

"nothing."

Kai replied briefly.

He reached out and touched the coffin.

This coffin was like a magnetic levitation slide, which directly floated up and then slid down to open, revealing the overly young face of Henry VIII.

Although he died, he didn't have a lot of dead energy on his body, his face was plump and didn't collapse, and his complexion looked good. In addition to his extremely pale face, he looked as if he had fallen asleep, and was extremely peaceful.

Amid the alarmed and uncertain discussions of the nobles, Annan stretched out his right index finger and lightly tapped Henry VIII's forehead.

At the moment he touched the body of Henry VIII.

A curtain of light suddenly flashed in front of Annan's eyes:

【——Discovering the Fragments of the Truth】

[Condition 1: Currently there is no residual page of conflict truth]

[Condition 2: Hold a rare elite (purple) and above template]

【Truth Appears—】

next moment.

An extremely strong white light, centered on the contact point between Annan and Henry VIII, suddenly spread outwards, and then rose from the ground!

It was a very sacred radiance.

Just staring at that light, you can feel the peace of mind.

The guests in the light were pale, but everyone present did not feel the dazzling light, but just stared at it unconsciously... like a puppet whose mind was taken away by it.

Apart from Sir Silver, the only people present who can retain consciousness are Salvatore, Mr. Kay and... Prince Philip.

After more than half a minute, the light finally dissipated.

Paper-like white pages with a jade-like touch were suspended in the air.

Dark golden text swam across it like waves.

And a light curtain appeared on it:

[The Book of the Sky Train, page 3]

[Type: Fragment of Truth (1/6) (unlocked)]

【Remaining Fragment Holders: 3】

【Shown: 3】

[Description: Fragments of the truth that have just been born, gather all the fragments to hold new authority]

Annan touched it silently.

Like a foam phantom, it shattered directly out of thin air and merged directly into Annan's body.

After a short delay, a few new lines appeared in front of Annan's eyes:

[Book of the Sky Train (3/6): Summons or dismisses a specified number of players from another world (80/300)]

[Current special effects (3/6): Players can be resurrected; public experience pool (2%); teleportation cornerstone]

[Public experience pool: 2% of the experience points (increased by '1%') obtained by players whose level is not higher than themselves from any way (increased from 'dungeon') can be deposited into the public experience pool , stored in the public experience pool and can be assigned to any friendly unit (unlimited players)]

[Teleportation cornerstone: It is possible to establish a teleportation cornerstone in a town of no less than "medium" size. Players can teleport freely in different teleportation cornerstones, or return to the last registered teleportation cornerstone after a simple ceremony. The current teleportation cannot cross the enchantment temporarily]

"I'd like to introduce you to everyone," Sir Silver's loud voice sounded behind Annan, "this is Annan Winter. The soon-to-be succeeded Archduke of Winter, the offspring beloved by the old grandmother, the author of the newly born Book of Truth. The holder - the god of the future!

"—Celebrate, everyone! Salute to Your Excellency Annan!"

To the deceased king and the god of the future, Sir Silver said with an impassioned voice.

update completed!

A little bit of Calvin today, let me clear up my thoughts in the first update... The cold is almost cured, and the second update will resume tomorrow.
