Durin's Diary

Chapter 816 Parties
"Lord Durin has been working on his new movie in the Everburning Nest these days, which proves that what happened during this period was definitely not his doing."

Rota looked at the information in his hand and raised his head to look at the King of Savoy.

He was not wearing a military uniform today, after all, he was on annual leave these days. However, as a member of the military who knew Lord Durin, he had to come to the palace hall at the invitation of the king.

What does it mean to listen to both the proclamation and the instructions?

That's it.

The King sat before his Iron Throne, a look of deep thought on his face.

His child Zaigu stood beside Rota and said, "With Lord Dulin's magnanimity, if he did this, he would definitely produce damning evidence for the whole world to see."

This time, the old man sitting on the throne was no longer silent. He pointed at Rota and said, "Tell me."

"Lord Durin is a four-class legendary being. Even weaker gods wouldn't be able to defeat him. Furthermore, he has the Oath of Proverbs. If he ascends to godhood... he'll at least be a neutral good god of medium power, or... a neutral evil god."

"How come even the camps are deviated?" The old man was a little curious.

"Your Highness Zaigu understands this issue better than me." After saying this, Rota began to play dumb.

Knowing that this was an opportunity for his child to show off, the old man didn't care, but raised his eyebrows: "Tell me the reason, Zaigu."

"Our Astrologer's Tower and the Diviner's Guild have both divined for you. The Tower predicted the three major priesthoods of Neutral Good, Protection, Fairness, and Justice. The Guild predicted the three major priesthoods of Neutral Evil, Slaughter, War, and Judgment."

Zaigu's face was filled with embarrassment when he said this: "Although we all know that there will definitely be times when we make mistakes in such matters, these six major priesthoods basically include the strongest ones."

He didn't dare to name any names, but everyone knew who the strongest ones were.

"You mean to say that his fate is obscured, right?" the old man laughed.

"Without being obscured, how can we calculate such a terrible future? None of these six priesthoods can be taken in by the new god, no matter how powerful Lord Durin is." Having said that, Zaigu returned the topic to Rota beside him.

Rota then took over the topic. "So, Your Highness and I both believe that there must be an unknown deity interfering with Lord Durin's fate. It's not the God of Fate, because he doesn't like such unpredictable changes. It's most likely an evil deity. But Lord Durin is favored by the righteous gods and acts righteously, so these things definitely weren't done by him. He's also using the film to prove himself. The person who interfered with his fate might want to pin these things on him."

"As long as he didn't do it, that's fine. After all, everyone says that Lord Durin is a Northernist and we can't get along."

"But at least we are all living beings. There may be wars and misunderstandings among living beings, but I believe that Lord Durin will not ignore the existence of Chaos. Compared with Chaos, we are at least still human beings." After Zaigu finished speaking, he lowered his head and waited for the old man's answer.

After a while, the old man nodded and said, "That's right, you guys go down and rest first."

Since the person on the chair didn't like anyone else in the hall, Zaigu turned around and left with Rota.

In the corridor, they saw two of their peers kneeling on the other side.

One is Zaigu's elder brother and the other is Zaigu's younger brother.

He didn't know why they were kneeling there, but while he was happy to see it, he didn't show his joy on his face.

So, after leaving the palace with Rota, Zaigu nudged Rota while waiting for a ride on the side of the road. "Please ask for me when we get back. It's not surprising that my brother is kneeling there like an idiot, but what about his brother from the same mother?"

"Okay, Your Highness." Rota nodded.

Two young boys from across the street came over - Zaigu's younger brother and Luo's younger brother.

At that moment, Zaigu's car approached—it had been custom-built from the Engineering College through His Excellency Dulin's connections. Its high chassis and large wheels made it ideal for battlefield use, and it would be overkill for driving in the city. As the car stopped, Rota instinctively reached out for his Highness. He opened the back door and saw the black muzzle of a gun.

Lotta is a person who is very afraid of death.

But on the battlefield, he learned a set of logic, that is, when facing the muzzle of an automatic rifle, if he who is closest to it does not block it, then when the trigger is pulled, everyone pointed at by the muzzle will die.

So he reached out, grabbed the barrel of the gun, and then pushed the muzzle down with all his strength.

At the same time, gunshots rang out.

………………

Watching his second son leave, the old man turned his head to look at the empty corner, where the old walker Potter appeared.

"Old friend, what do you think of my child?" the king asked expressionlessly.

Old Potter shook his head. "Ever since the Year of Troubles, the fate of some people has become unclear. I can't see the future of your child, but I can see the future of the young people around him."

Old Potter hesitated at this point, "But I don't know if I should let you know this."

"What can't be said?" His fate is intertwined with Zaigu's, and only one of them can survive.

And when he left, I saw his future, a future with many children and grandchildren.

The only thing that puzzled old Potter was that he couldn't see the children's faces.

He could only sense that among those children there were great warriors and great scholars, but he could not see their faces.

"So that's why when the eldest son's younger brothers tried to persuade me with the story of the Tang people deposing the eldest son and enthroning the youngest, you helped them to stop my anger. Does Zaigu really have no future?"

"I can't really say. Fate is unpredictable and beyond our comprehension."

At this moment, gunshots were heard from outside the window which was opened a crack.

The old man was startled and immediately stood up: "Where are you shooting?"

Old Potter said nothing, but protective spells were cast on the king one after another.

Soon, guards appeared outside the gate. "There's an assassin hiding in His Highness Zaigu's vehicle! His aide, Rota, has blocked the gun and is providing first aid."

"I heard a lot of gunfire."

"It's an automatic gun."

At this point in the conversation, Old Potter let out a long sigh.

He had seen automatic guns, which could fire hundreds of bullets per minute. Not to mention mortals, even ordinary extraordinary professionals would find it difficult to escape death if attacked by such weapons.

So this is why I couldn’t see the children’s appearance clearly.

Fate is truly cruel to this land.
