Zinner ordered to construct two buildings in the Reese city first \; first, Enlil Temple \; second, the king temporary palace, he must take alternate capital of oneself this City State in new area. In the mind of this Great Emperor, besides the original Assyria capital city nun micro city, he must construct two alternate capitals, another alternate capital in the Duk plain, he will think including the address, is the present salem city is.
The Enlil Temple booing office, original Marduk Temple in City State transforms, the main building retains, the Lord looks like trades prestige Enlil. But transforms the temporary palace a little to be troublesome with the original City Lord mansion, Zinner dislikes that mansion to be too poor, ordering nearby construction to demolish the reconstruction continually together, what he wants is a grand and luxurious palace.
The Assyria empire mobilizes the slave who large quantities has conquered newly for Zinner build palace, is tight, many artisan and slaves who the time urges die of exhaustion while still alive in the quarry, many people, because cannot complete the task to encounter the cruel punishment on time. At present this temporary palace still in constructing, but the main hall and Zinner residence finished, Zinner plans here to get married with the small alizarin red princess, but the small alizarin red princess also puts on the spot after marriage in this alternate capital imperial palace.
Zinner sends out a team of going to bride's home to escort her to the wedding to go to Babylon City, since goes to bride's home to escort her to the wedding also protects princess's safety. When because does not know from, in Kingdom spreads a rumor, some people must assassinate the small alizarin red princess, assassination possibly is the fanatic of Assyria military, to prevent Zinner took a concubine the alizarin red princess to end the decision of war.
This rumor is very interesting, the Assyria military possibly has the individual extremist to have this idea, but really wants to begin is actually the main action influence in Babylon Kingdom, actually for another goal. Since there is a such rumor, the Assyria empire naturally must protect the princess to go to the Darys city safely, but Babylon Kingdom has also sent out the guard team, worships small alizarin red princess's warrior also spontaneously to follow behind convoy escorts the princess to leave country.
This team may be complex enough, the front is the Assyria Kingdom going to bride's home to escort her to the wedding guard of honor clears the way, the middle is the Babylon Kingdom guard escorts the princess emperor, but behind long convoy, warrior distant followed of some bringing weapon and dry rations. Leaves Babylon City to arrive at Zinner temporary palace to be at along the Lisi River west bank, such huge convoy needs to walk for a half month, must pitch camp in many small towns along the way.
Although everybody enhanced vigilance to guard against the assassin to appear, but after leaving Babylon City, uneventful, without any unusual condition occurrence, on the contrary some lot of people spontaneous expressed best wishes to the princess in the roadside. Some people are bursting into tears, some people were singing the poem, noble representatives in some small towns to the princess said the respect and gave the gift. The princess does not receive guests, all gifts were cultivated Lebanon to receive on another's behalf and convey the gratitude by accompanying Supreme Mage.
When convoy arrives at third day, finally had the small condition, the people almost think that was the assassin came, finally has actually had a misunderstanding.
In the morning, princess's convoy left shortly after the small town that pitched camp, across stretch of green and glossy paddies, the front major road turned round, the left had not a high hill, the trees on mountain were not many, was a piece of complete Xigao grassy slope. When convoy just passed through 50% after the mountain, listens to the summit to have sound tall Qidao of man: „Small alizarin red princess, I catches up to protect you!”
The voice of this person passes on is very far, entire convoy heard, this throat has caused a piece of tumult. Around sees only the guards as well as warrior turn around in abundance, the bracing and blade come out of the sheath, cultivated Lebanon also to grasp staff to jump on princess's vehicle roof, but front line well-trained Assyria Warrior have turned round the wharf array to rush to at the foot of the hill, has held up the uniform heavy crossbow.
On the summit only then a person, he puts on bright armor that silver light sparkles, that is on continent the most dazzling Warrior armor, builds to turn round by Mage Steel by the sinking silver, above is also carving a Magic Technique pattern. This person does not have the saber, waist to hang an arc like fang crescent blade, this blade does not have the sheath, is lives with the ribbon on the hilt, but the long hilt looks like short staff, terminal also embed Pyrosprite.
He in atmosphere of piece at daggers drawn, is actually a cocky appearance, goes down the hill with smile on the face in big strides. Going to bride's home to escort her to the wedding team leader Krips who at this time the Assyria empire sent has led cavalry to assume the arc to sphere the foot, drank a sound track high: „Halts, please do not excel at rushing to the princess emperor, otherwise executes summarily f”
Metatro as if like has not heard general, far away to cultivating Li Zhaoshou said: „Cultivates Lebanese nBiJ we to meet! I am Metatro, but also doesn't remember? Oh, heard that you now are Supreme Mage, at least had Eighth Level .7”
If the person of unclear details, hears this saying, has not known that he and cultivates Lebanon intimately. When Metatro speech has not slowed down footsteps, leads the way beamingly and buoyant in big strides, has arrived in the firing distance of heavy crossbow. Cultivates a Lebanese brow wrinkle to be just about to shout propaganda, only listened to a piece of bowstring sound, knight in Assyria empire going to bride's home to escort her to the wedding guard to put the arrow as if by prior agreement.
They only listen to the order of Captain, Krips commanded Metatro to halt a moment ago, but Metatro has not actually halted. These people killed people used to it in the battlefield, looked Metatro entered the firing distance without hesitation immediately has projected the crossbow arrow. The heavy crossbow arrow arrow is projected by strong Warrior, the might can shoot through a bull, in an instant can turn into the hedgehog Metatro, the convoy following many person has sent out to call out in alarm.
However Metatro has not pulled out including the blade, has not moved aside does not have the standard to keep off, even has not stopped including the footsteps, he puts out a hand to wield, movement quick leaves behind a series of empty shades in Air, as if that arm turned into the innumerable strip, grasped these crossbow arrows unexpectedly in the hand, has grasped full big. Although the distance is a little far, but grips the shaft that the heavy crossbow has projected with the hand, the average person control leather belt meat will be rubbed continually, cannot catch easily, but the Metatro looks like held grass stalk to be so superficial.
After calling out in alarm, all people held breath an cold air/Qi, Krips have drawn out the saber, knight under held up the short spear to arrange in order the charge formation, has run into a formidable match at heart clearly. At this time the people actually heard one to drink tenderly: „Stop! This warrior is friend of mine, he is protects my, haven't you heard?”
The people catch the eye to look, saw only the small alizarin red princess to open the car(riage) curtain to stand before the cowl, the personal appearance appeared somewhat delicate, sent to flutter in the morning breeze gently, but elegant face ice cold, in the expression had an imposing irresistible dignity.
Metatro cocky shouting: „Do you hear? The princess asked me to pass, has not put down the weapon quickly!”
Speaks he to move toward at the foot of the hill convoy.
Krips dials Malaya before the small alizarin red princess's body, in a tone with discontented [say / way]: „Princess, this person of skill , and purpose in coming is unclear, you cannot make a decision without authorization!”
Small alizarin red princess: „Is purpose in coming unclear? You decide! He is Kingdom warrior that I confer personally, back then when I by giants Tribe kidnapping of Assyria Plateau, was he is through thick and thin to save me, and escorted the kings me. You do not certainly know this person, but he is the friend of mine. Cultivates Li Keyi to testify!”
Cultivation Li Youxie who has jumped out of the car(riage) explained awkwardly:
„Yes, this person of name called Metatro, truly the rescue and protected the princess, the princess has conferred his noble Warrior status, but......”
The small alizarin red princess calm face interruption said: „Anything! He is my savior, noble does knight, what come to escort me to have not?”
Krips violates the whisper, worships and follows the small alizarin red princess „the Kingdom hero” naturally much, behind convoy also with dozens, but these person official guard prestige, cannot alarm the princess emperor by no means that can only bring dry rations accompanying, where has Metatro this swaggering comes to greet with the princess directly, gave to alarm including the guards.
Krips the neck was saying loudly: „I present the life of Zinner Great Emperor to protect princess's safety, on the road all guard business am under the charge to me, cannot let this danger , and person of unknown origin approaches your emperor!”
The small alizarin red princess has appeared the scowl, the unit has not given him the face, scolds to say fierce: „Krips, do you want to commit treason to plot a rebellion? Is this person trustworthy, you said does not calculate, only then I decide! You will not understand my status, does not know that I go to Assyria make anything! If he is not trustworthy, then here includes you not to have the trustworthy person. I do not hinder you to carry out the Assyria Great's order, but will ask you also to consider the oneself status and future destiny! The guards disperse, asking that hero to come!”
Krips had food stuck in the throat at once, face rises red almost could not speak. He is Zinner palace guards the imperial palace one of the leaders, is Great Warrior, this time was sent the duty that carries out to go to bride's home to escort her to the wedding, this despises the psychology to the Babylon Kingdom subject one type very much, wants to kill to Metatro a moment ago kills. However the small alizarin red princess's words actually gave him the overhead to throw a trough cold water, was a fearful and apprehensive warning.
At present this princess must marry the Assyria Great Emperor, becomes the empress in Assyria empire, regardless of her for anything, but this acme of beauty and deportment beautiful woman, once becomes the empress, even if only obtained the Zinner temporary favor, finds an opportunity to remove this to guard the imperial palace Captain not to be difficult. If small alizarin red princess to give vent to indignation wants to murder with a borrowed knife intentionally, is Zinner Great Emperor maintains this empress to maintain this to guard the imperial palace Captain to be intimate?
The small alizarin red princess's words were clearly suggesting that 11 do not contradict here I, do not look at your present power and prestige, when I in the future will become Queen Assyria, could not have tidied up you >\;
Krips intention racing, realized that at present this princess is not an affable role, therefore is bowing to say immediately:
„Your highness, I also considered for your safety, since your absolute trust he, that makes him come.” Then waves, order knight under make way a road.
Before the emperor who Metatro arrives at the princess, salutes to say toward the small alizarin red princess: „ My beautiful princess, you still remembers words that in the past spoke? I escort you to return to the Babylon king road of the Akkad town, you once had said that that day when you get married, but also makes our these warrior accompany. I have remembered, therefore catches up today. „ Small alizarin red princess truly had said these words, at that time was bodyguards cracks a joke, some people asked when she did marry Gilgamesh? The small alizarin red princess had not replied directly, therefore spoke such words. But today she truly must get married, the person who marries actually has become Zinner Great Emperor.
The small alizarin red princess looks at Metatro, why does not know in the heart the surging infinite feeling, she wants to show the noble smile, but this smiling face is very pale, graceful beckons with the hand saying: ” Thank you, my noble hero! ” Then turns around to cultivating Li [say / way] in the expression of instruction:
„To this heroic best steed, making him follow by my car(riage).”
Cultivated Li Leng staring, wants to advise has not actually opened the mouth, this Supreme Mage realized suddenly a matter, present woman Princess Babylon or Queen Assyria, were not the character who was good to offend. He even a little regrets to accept the buy of Assyria empire, these many days have been monitoring the motion of small alizarin red princess, then do to do a thankless job.
How regardless of small alizarin red princess by forcing, can offend truly her also only then Zinner Great Emperor, other people should better study clever.
Therefore Metatro then rides a pure white steed to follow by the small alizarin red princess's car(riage), the front is the bright insignia, the rear area is magnificent and expensive convoy. In the entire team is his most old-style fan device, he does not know where takes out a fire red throwing over windsail outside the bright silver armor, the talented person who knows is clear he to volunteer to come guard princess's warrior, the crowds that but does not understand the true situation seem, but also thinks that he is the bridegroom who meets the new bride.
The small alizarin red princess in car(riage) is away from the car(riage) curtain and Metatro is speaking, only listens to her to lower the sound saying: „Heard that you followed General Amon to go to the salem city, no, now should call is God Amon. On continent spread past General Egypt is actually a walk world Spiritual God, was such?”
Metatro holds up the head to reply: „Yes, he is the true Spiritual God, my only god!”
Why the small alizarin red princess does not know spooky sighing, also said: „You should not come to here, salem city just with the Assyria empire at Duk plain war, if clear your status, will treat as the dangerous enemy you.”
The small alizarin red princess naturally clear Metatro status, her accompanying Supreme Mage cultivates Lebanon also to know that till cultivated Li Xiang to remind a moment ago is actually drunk by the princess. But that is for a long time occupied the Assyria kings by Great Warrior Krips who Zinner sends, only has been responsible for directing the Assyria imperial guard, news understanding distant place is not that concrete.
Metatro in the past was only General Amon protected Captain, latter arrived at the salem city also dew over several surface in the war, Krips of distant place has not heard normally.
Metatro very natural smiles: „Here is in Babylon Kingdom, I once was also Babylon Kingdom noble Warrior, why can't accompany? In order to protect princess you, I am not afraid any danger. I have escorted the Lisi River ferry spot you, crossed river you to be safe.”
Metatro is not but actually stupid, he will not ford along with convoy enters the Assyria Army guard blatantly City State, will only deliver to the safe place the small alizarin red princess. Small alizarin red princess nod of silently, cannot bear the kind expression ask: „Before I leave Babylon City, just heard the latest news, ` he also appears in you and giants Regiment war, he fortunately?”
Metatro is startled slightly, immediately understands the small alizarin red princess said what „he” refers to is Gilgamesh, somewhat loses, but very much has replying of demeanor: „He is very good, is not the past that haughty appearance, he does not get rid I not to note, appears as ordinary archer in the battlefield unexpectedly.”
The small alizarin red princess said slightly with amazement: „, He is what appearance is intimate? I cannot imagine such Gill really!”
Metatro must describe the same day Gilgamesh to her in the situation in the battlefield having, that war is soul-stirring, hears the small alizarin red princess is covers the mouth, finally she covers the chest also to ask: ” Where he went to after the war, hears the Babylon Kingdom latest news, is what kind of reaction? ”
In the princess words has the words, what actually she most wants to ask is Gilgamesh heard one by one Zinner does want to compel her to get married, what reaction has, to speak which words? It is not what a pity good directly to ask.
Metatro sighed the one breath to reply: „Was a pity that I am not clear, I heard after the news, directly caught up, at that time not in the Gilgamesh side.”
Then they were silent, the small alizarin red princess is away from the gauze curtain to look outside the car(riage) the dim picture, does not know that was sighing for whom secretly. The appearance of Metatro, has brought back her to past recollection, person who at this time this place, in her heart most thinks, never truly places former fiance Gilgamesh at heart this Princess Kingdom unexpectedly.
Gilgamesh at this moment where? Perhaps small alizarin red princess has a dream cannot think that this past noble hero wore the used thick hempen garments at this moment, the boots that was treading one pair rub through, rushed to Babylon king Babylon City travel-worn. After other people city, Prince Ben the mansion of Von Niu, this kind of appearance moves toward the front door, immediately has the guarding a gate bodyguard to go forward to drink to stop.
Gilgamesh has not actually moved: Stands said in the stone steps: „Please notify one, I must see Prince Feng Niu, my name was called Gilgamesh.”
The bodyguard has lifted a foot to do empty kicks the shape, will stare to curse at people, hears his last few words stiffly, the movement actually there, rubbed the eyes by the facial expression that does not dare to believe that puts down the foot to extend the head to ask: „You, you, are really you Gilgamesh?”
Gilgamesh very gentle replying: „In this place, I, if pretends to be this name, what advantage has?”
What said is, some people the gate pretend to be the Gilgamesh status before Prince Feng Niu, isn't this and courts death general? Bodyguards half believing and half doubting went to notify. After a while the prefecture gate opens greatly, Prince Feng Niu welcomed personally, far away bows saying: „Was Gill, you comes really? Sorry, my below people were disrespectful!”
Gilgamesh shakes the head saying: ” They have not been disrespectful, thank you goes out personally greets! I have two important matters to want with you to discuss that does not know your highness does have the time? ”
Prince Feng Niu nods to say again and again: „Has, naturally has, you came, my some are the time! In a big hurry quick, had any words to go in says again!” He went forward to pull the arm of Gilgamesh personally, welcomed people this past hero in the prefecture.
