Alien Knights

Chapter 320: Set off again

The first cabinet of the Muxi Kingdom has 19 members, including seven ministries and commissions including agriculture, commerce, urban planning, taxation, law, personnel, and heterogeneous affairs. It also invited senior officials from the two knights of the kingdom to attend each time as a military consultant. Cabinet meeting.

King Todd held a grand cabinet formation ceremony in the palace and, witnessed by hundreds of specially invited citizens, handed over the seal, ribbon and scepter, which symbolizes the kingdom’s political jurisdiction, to the first prime minister of the cabinet. Sen.

  The ceremony is not complicated.

   Emerson knelt in front of the king on one knee and listened to the latter saying: "As your monarch, I appoint you as prime minister and form a government in my name."

   Emerson stooped and replied: "I will follow your majesty's will, be faithful to my duty, and do my best to abide by, safeguard and defend the kingdom and your rights."

   The king handed three tokens of power to Emerson's hands, and the ceremony ended.

   The whole process did not have too much red tape, and there was no gorgeous song and dance performance, but the audience present already understood a fact.

   The supreme ruler of the Muxi Kingdom became the first king in history to voluntarily transfer part of his royal power to others.

   This marks the desolation of an old system, but it also means the beginning of a new era.

   After the ceremony was completed, Todd stayed at the dinner for almost twenty minutes, leaving the venue early on the excuse of being unwell.

  Leaving the hustle and joy behind him, Todd stepped into the deserted corridor and walked slowly towards the direction of the bedroom.

   Hudgens followed behind him.

   The other party looked at Todd's unwavering face, and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty..."

   Todd turned his face, looked at the hesitant Huggins, and said calmly, "What's the matter?"

   "The people of the whole kingdom are talking about your move to form a cabinet. They think that you... have accomplished an amazing feat."

"I'm afraid it's not the only way." Todd said with a smile: "Someone will definitely call me crazy and divide the king's power with others; maybe there are people who speculate that today's things are related to the power struggle. "

   Hudgens shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, that's not the case. In fact, many people are worried."

   "Worry?"

Huggins gritted his teeth and said courageously: "Your Majesty, with all due respect, the people of Twilight City have long been accustomed to your rule. They believe that you are both the king of this world and the spokesperson of the gods, Saint All the decisions made by the son are sacred and predictable. Now, you have to give your power to a group of mortals, and the people deeply doubt the ability of this group of people."

   Todd turned his body and turned his face to Huggins: "Looking at this kingdom, you should be the one who has been with me the longest. I want to hear the truth from you, do you believe that I am the spokesperson of the gods?"

   Hudgens made a fist with his right hand, placed it on his chest, and said categorically: "Past, present and future, swear by my soul and reputation, my faith in the Son of God will never change!"

   Todd waved his hand with a smile: "Relax, there is no need to be so serious."

   Harkins put down his hands in a jealous voice: "Not only me, but most people in the West City believe it."

Todd patted Huggins' arm with his hand, and sighed slightly: "Remember what I said, even a **** can't protect his people forever. One day, the vicissitudes of life, the passage of time, this The world still depends on mortals themselves."

Seeing Huggins nodded faintly, Todd turned around and continued his journey, getting further and further away from the crowd, leaving a sentence in the empty promenade: "Go, join their banquet. , This is the day of the kingdom’s rebirth. You have no reason to miss this great moment."

   Hudgens shouted at Todd's back: "Your Majesty, where are you going?!"

"I need to rest."

  ————————————————

   Two weeks later, Todd, who participated in the Twilight West Side Advent Festival, came to a mountainous area in the northern part of the kingdom and walked into the Griffin Camp under construction.

  The camp was built against the mountain. The craftsmen of Muxicheng used blasting and supernatural methods to excavate dozens of large caves inward on the mountain wall.

  The Griffins moved into the cave as a family unit, and started to decorate their new home with the gravel and weeds prepared in the cave.

   Standing under the cliff, watching the griffins flying above his head, Todd said to Huggins, "Is there any progress in the plan to bring humans and griffins into contact?"

   The latter shook his head helplessly and said: "It is very difficult. These war beasts obviously don't trust humans. Once our people want to get close to them, they will be warned loudly by the griffon. If they walk too close, they will even be attacked."

   Todd was a little disappointed: "Sure enough, it still doesn't work?"

"Master Cumberland said that if the griffin can be domesticated as a knight's mount, then the entire sky will be the territory of the Kingdom of Muxi." Huggins glanced at the busy craftsmen and soldiers on the ground and said. "At present, we have thought of two ways to close the relationship between humans and beasts. First, Wayne’s underground bloodworm breeding farm has been completed, and there is a steady stream of insects every week for these griffins. For food, the knights will use the timing of feeding to establish a relationship with the beasts as soon as possible. Second, the adult beasts do not trust humans, but their young children are not very hostile to humans. We are trying to use toys and food, To strengthen the relationship between the knights and them."

Todd nodded as he listened: "In short, this matter is not in a hurry. There is no precedent in history such as the domestication of war beasts. Right now, I can only take one step at a time... By the way, I asked you to bring something prepared. Yet?"

Huggins pointed to the carriage behind him, and said to Todd: "A full set of experimental equipment, as well as samples of the Twilight West City Ability Library ~ lightnovelpub.net~ are all packed into this wooden box and prepared in it. Collision avoidance treatment."

   "Very good." Todd blew a whistle toward the sky.

   A huge griffin flapped its wings and slowly landed next to Todd, rubbing his head affectionately against his cheek.

   Looking at the huge beast in front of him, Hudgens took a step back unconsciously, and then whispered to Todd, "Your Majesty, are you sure? If you leave without saying goodbye again, Master Cumberland will be mad."

Todd helped Griffin Henry put on the special reins and saddle pads, and smiled without turning his head: "So I came out this time and claimed to be the king's parade. Besides, even if I leave, I will still regularly adopt the kingdom of heaven. The way of the meeting is to keep abreast of and grasp the movement of the kingdom in time."

   Hudgens still looked hesitant: "But..."

"Government matters are handled by Emerson, the deployment of the army and the execution of law enforcement, Cumberland will apply and report to me, plus the assistance of Muxi University and the Department of Alien Affairs, all the affairs of the kingdom have gone. On the right track, there is nothing to worry about."

   Todd tightened the straps on Henry's body, rolled over and rode on the back of the Griffin.

   Harkins hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty, how long will it take you to go out this time?"

   "From ten days to one month." Todd touched Henry's neck and pulled up the reins with both hands.

   The griffon flapped its wings suddenly, and the high wind was mingled with snowflakes, floating above the camp.

   Henry rose into the air, his sharp claws grabbed the wooden box on the carriage, his wings again exerted strength, and his figure gradually disappeared into the falling star mountain range. ...
