Chapter 378 The King Dies, the Earth Splits

Both princes gained the dragon's approval.

This news spread throughout the entire kingdom of the earth, and even throughout the entire United Kingdom.

This news was released as soon as it was released.

Fuguang and Fengrao vanished without a trace, as if they were dead.

Many people suddenly disappeared from the Kingdom of Earth, and no one knew where they went or where they came from.

Two divine dragons swept across the sky above Eindook.

Everyone realized it.

This land is about to undergo a tremendous change.

However, apart from Wu Ge, no one knew what this change was.

today.

King Theresa, despite his serious illness, summoned Wu Ge to his bedroom alone.

We entered the room.

Wu Ge felt that Dresa was so weak that he could barely breathe, and couldn't help but sigh.

how to say.

Ten years.

They were ruler and subject, but also friends, trusting each other implicitly and never afraid of being betrayed by the other.

Seeing the other person like this now, Wu Ge felt really bad.

"The Imperial Advisor."

"Alas, Your Majesty, you may not live past this week."

Wu Ge had no intention of deceiving Dresa.

Because he knew that Dresa was most worried about the Kingdom of Earth and the two princes.

If you die suddenly.

He will die with his eyes wide open in disbelief.

He must be informed in advance so that he has time to make arrangements for his funeral before he will be at peace.

"Ahem, I know."

Dresa propped herself up.

It might just be a final burst of energy before death.

At this moment, Dresa's eyes were not cloudy, but rather very clear and firm, just like when Wu Ge first saw him ten years ago.

"Rami has the support of Zekrom, and Kazan has the support of Reshiram. Once they start a war, every inch of the western continent will no longer be peaceful. Then, there will be no more Blessed Land and Abundance."

Wu Ge frowned and told him about the current situation.

Who can imagine.

Dresa simply raised his hand to stop him from continuing.

"Let Rami and Kazan resolve their own affairs. The victor takes all. As for Fuguang and Fengrao, I am not worried. Although I am dead, the Grand Preceptor is still alive, isn't he? I believe you will create a battlefield for the two brothers where no third party can interfere."

"."

Wu Ge remained silent.

He watched as Dresa lay on the floor and pulled a box covered in dust and moss from under his bed.

"This is."

Wu Ge narrowed his eyes as he looked at the box.

This was the first time he had ever known there was such a thing under the bed.

Dresa opened the box.

Inside the box was a scepter.

This scepter is only one meter long, but it is made of gold from top to bottom, with a molten gold-like luster flowing throughout. The scepter has mysterious carvings of unknown meaning.

At the very tip of the scepter appears to be a container, which could hold some lost object.

"The Scepter of the Earth, something left to me by my grandfather, symbolizes the supreme authority of the Kingdom of Earth, although perhaps no one recognizes it today."

Dresa picked up the scepter, looked at the tip, and sighed.
“There used to be a gem here, but it has disappeared. However, for us people of the land, it doesn’t matter whether the gem is here or not. It’s just that you, Grand Preceptor, might need that gem.”

Dresa handed the scepter to Wu Ge.

Wu Ge took it subconsciously, then looked at Dresa with a puzzled expression.

"This scepter now has almost no symbolic meaning, but it still has another identity: the controller of the Earth Sword."

Theresa pointed to the floor beneath her.

That is, the royal palace where they were staying.

"The Sword of Earth, needs to be controlled with this?"

Wu Ge opened his eyes.

He didn't see Dreiser or Dredo use this thing in the animation.

"The people of the earth can directly control the sword of the earth with their own bloodline, but they have to pay a price, and I don't know what that price is."

Dreiser shook his head, then pointed to the Earth Scepter.

"The Earth Scepter allows those who do not have the blood of the earth to control the sword of the earth, but it requires a gem as its core."

Why give it to me?

Wu Ge asked.

But he already had a guess in his mind.

Could the item I'm carrying, called the 'Core of the Earth,' be the gem that Dressar mentioned?

"I don't trust anyone else."

Dresa led Wu Ge toward the council hall, and at the same time spoke to the close advisors who were standing guard outside the door.
"I have summoned the civil and military officials and the two princes; I have an important announcement to make."

"Yes!"

After that person left.

As Dresa walked, she glanced out the window at Eindook:
“I trust Rami’s character and Kazan’s abilities, but I can’t trust them with the scepter because of their abilities and character.”

Theresa turned to look at Wu Ge and said solemnly,
“I need someone to hold this scepter so that they can help or restrain them in the future through the Sword of Earth, and I only trust the Grand Preceptor.”

How would you like me to use it?

Wu Ge looked at Theresa.

He could feel that with each step Dresa took, his life force was rapidly fading away.

If he had stayed in bed, he might have survived for another week.

But now they're on the ground.

He probably won't live more than three days.

"This scepter has not even been found with any gems, so I do not expect the Grand Preceptor to actually use it. The Grand Preceptor need not worry about it."

"However, if the Imperial Advisor is fortunate enough to find that gem, I hope you can do me a favor."

"If my two unfilial sons were to lead the Earth Kingdom to its destruction in the future, leaving the entire western continent devastated and barren, then I implore the Grand Preceptor to take the Earth Sword and use it to save me."

"Clean house."

Dressar's eyes were cold; at that moment, he resembled Kazan.

just.

Dresa is thinking about the Kingdom of Earth, the western continent, while Kazan will prioritize himself.

Wu Ge watched his figure and fell silent.

It wasn't as simple as Dresa had imagined.

The Sword of the Earth is indeed the honor and symbol of the Kingdom of Earth.

But it is also a sealing talisman for the dragon vein.

Once the Earth Sword is removed, the dragon veins will surely go berserk, plunging the entire land of Unova into a great catastrophe.

Whether Kyurem and Mikumo have the ability is unknown, but the Black and White Dragons cannot stop the dragon vein from going berserk.

but.

He didn't tell Theresa these things.

He understood Dresa's determination.

We arrived at the council chamber.

Dresa sat on his throne, gazing quietly outside, seemingly lost in memories.

After half an hour.

Everyone who was supposed to be there arrived.

Even Zekrom and Rehiram stood beside Rami and Kazan respectively.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Black and White Dragons are legendary Pokémon.

But they were also subjects and elders of the Kingdom of Earth.

Back when they were one with the Kyurem, they followed the first king and fought alongside him to establish the Kingdom of Earth.

and so.

They would obey if Dresa gave the order.

"I have summoned you here today to tell you that my days are numbered, and before that, I must decide on the next ruler."

"Your Majesty!!"
As soon as Dresa finished speaking, all the ministers knelt down in obeisance.

Tears began to well up in many people's eyes.

Especially those old ministers, who have followed Dresa since they were young, and have been together as ruler and minister for thirty or forty years.

His sincerity is evident to all, and it is not an act, but a genuine expression of his feelings.

"However, before that, I would like to ask the Imperial Advisor for his opinion."

Dresa looked at Wu Ge beside her.

However, he already knew Wu Ge's answer, so he didn't expect to get any response.

It was simply so that the ministers would know.

The selection of the next ruler was entirely his own decision; the Grand Preceptor offered no opinion and was not involved at all.

Even if the future ruler is incompetent and foolish, it will be because Dresa made a bad choice.

It has nothing to do with the Imperial Advisor.

"Your Majesty, you may decide on the candidate yourself."

Wu Ge sighed.

He looked down at the two disciples with a complicated expression, a hint of reluctance flashing in his eyes.

He knew that Dresa longed for the future Rami had described and had more faith in Rami's character.

But if Kazan chooses Rami, he will inevitably go astray, and one of them will have to die to stop the war.

Should he try to stop Dresa from choosing Rami?

But that would be too unfair to Rami.

Wu Ge clenched his fists, feeling extremely conflicted.

They all have their own principles, beliefs, and dreams.
They have worked towards these goals for over a decade.

In this situation, no matter who he proposes a suggestion, it would be unfair to the other disciple and could destroy the other disciple's efforts and struggles over the past ten years.

In the end, Wu Ge felt powerless and remained silent.

So be it.

Let King Dresa make the choice himself.

No matter how tragic the final outcome.

At least this teacher was fair and impartial, and did not show favoritism to anyone.

"Very well, I hereby announce that the next king of the Earth Kingdom is the eldest prince, Rami, who will ascend the throne in three days!"

The words fell.

Wu Ge immediately sensed the overwhelming negative emotions.

Anger, hatred, resentment, frustration.
All these emotions combined, and the resentment was so strong that it even overshadowed the feelings of everyone else.

Wu Ge looked up at Kazan.

But his expression remained calm, and he didn't even blink.

"Go down."

"Yes!"xN
The crowd dispersed.

After leaving the council chamber, they all hurried away from the palace, not daring to linger for even a moment.

In just thirty seconds.

Only Rami and Kazan remained outside the council chamber.

Kazan said nothing and walked away alone into the distance.

"Kazan!"

Rami saw his younger brother's figure and quickly called out to him.

Kazanton remained in place.

He turned to look at Rami, his silent eyes seeming to be looking at a stranger.
