297 Alexander

Just after Aristotle left the city of Aaron, the messengers of the Poz Empire arrived, and they put new pressure on the military and political officials of the city of Aaron, threatening: "If you join Macedonia to abandon Poz, then Poz I will fully support Kibad and completely destroy Aaron! You are far from Macedonia, but closer to Kibad! Please don't forget that you made the decision to ask for help from Poz, why are you betraying your faith? You will certainly be punished by the gods for this! "

The Aaron City-state agreed that it was reluctant to form an alliance with Macedonia. In fact, they would rather sell the interests of the Heaton Peninsula to the distant Poz in exchange for supremacy, rather than submit to Macedonia on the Heaton Peninsula. Under the threat of the Bots and new promises, Aaron changed his mind and decided not to allow the covenant to take effect. He sent High Priest Merin assassin to assassinate the mission.

This was a top-secret operation, and as long as it was out of reach, it could not reveal the identity of the assassin. So Merlin took two warriors, three priests, twenty-four elite warriors, and dressed up the Kibadans. This lineup is more than enough to remove Aristotle's ambassador, and it is also thoughtful. It's a pity they missed it.

Not only were they missed, but they were all captured alive; not only were they captured alive, but their hands were **** and flagrantly paraded and recognized; not only were they recognized, but they were also watched all the way. The worst case you can imagine using your imagination is all happening! Is this the punishment of the gods? There is nothing I fear most.

A bound magician, as an assassin who was captured by accident, walked thousands of miles with other captives and suffered indescribable humiliation. In the beginning, Merlin was ashamed to death, and the resentment in her heart was indescribable, but along the way, he was watched too many times. He also had to calm down and gradually wanted to understand that this was his deserved end.

It was shameful that Aaron betrayed the covenant and betrayed her, even if she wanted to kill the Macedonian mission. Otherwise, these assassins would not dare to reveal their identities. He is the commander of the assassination operation. Now that he has suffered by himself, what is the reason for the assassination of him?

Merlin was numb for a time, like a walking dead, but when Aristotle's team encountered a second assassination, he thought more and thought more. The primary reinforcement in the city of Aaron was not Aristotle's mission, but the captives they had missed and captured. The warrior Moilei scolded the commander of the second group of assassins and was scolded by Medanzo again, but Merlin heard nothing but said nothing.

After entering the Macedonian city-state, the bound Merlin became calm. He knew that he could not return to Aaron to serve him, and even if he was redeemed as a captive, he did not intend to go back. This experience was a shame in terms of personal glory and the credibility of the city.

When he was housed in a comfortable residence, King Philip II of Makedonia personally came to "interrogate", Merlin simply said everything, and then calmly asked: "Your Majesty, what are you going to do with it? What about me? I want to take the flag of my head and launch an army to punish the Aaron? "

Philip II replied: "The city of Aaron is losing itself, and the entire Heaton Peninsula, including the Aaron, needs the salvation of gods. Your personal mission is over from the moment you miss and get caught From the moment you were assassinated by the second group of assassins, you have been abandoned by Aaron. The gods have given you a chance to choose again. Will you be loyal to Macedonia? I will not kill you if you refuse me Request, I will let you go back. "

Merlin considered only a few breaths, and immediately got up to salute and swore allegiance to Macedonia. In addition to him, Samurai Moilei and others also surrendered to Macedonia due to their own considerations. They have suffered humiliation along the way. As long as they are still alive and don't want to renounce themselves, they must wash their shame through the glory of their work. Philip II gave them the best advice: "I can not ask you to attack Aaron, and in the future, I will deal with the Bozies on the battlefield!"

Philip II willingly conquered these captives, on the one hand to show the ambition and generosity of a monarch, on the other hand, of course, it was also related to the gods of Zeus. The oracle did not say who was important to the kingdom of Macedonia, and Philip II had to deal with it carefully.

After disposing of the captives, Philip II inquired carefully about the progress of the mission's guard captain, Eisen, and was extremely interested in the matter of Amon and Medanzo. .

What a kingdom's intelligence system can understand, of course, goes far beyond what one would normally hear. Philip II saw all the information mentioned by the staff, and already knew who Amon was, but couldn't believe it—Aristotle brought back the gods from a foreign country!

Amon's identity is both special and embarrassing. He is not a **** believed by the Heatons, but only came to Macedonia as Aristotle's friend and follower. This determined that Philip II could not visit him like a god, or listen to him like a god. But Philip II was king, and he had never seen the **** with his own eyes. He was very looking forward to him and desperately wanted to see Amon, but he didn't know how to meet him.

Philip II hesitated for several days, and eventually called Aristotle into the palace to ask for advice. Aristotle asked with a smile, "Your Majesty, you can't treat him like a god, but you're afraid of being guilty of being spooked, is that so?"

Philip II nodded and said, "Yes, he is not a **** I believe in, but he is a **** after all."

Aristotle asked, "Your Majesty, do you know how we should get along with the gods and how should we treat them?"

Philip II moved his **** forward from his chair, leaned forward and said, "Please educate me!"

Aristotle replied: "For man's faith, God is a happy and perfect self-fulfillment in pure thought. The true God is beyond the existence of this world. The world we can perceive is imperfect. There are all kinds of life and desires, imperfect thoughts and desires, and all beings can more or less touch God. "

Philip II shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, sir, I didn't understand."

Aristotle smiled: "Then let's talk about Amon. He is a friend I knew in his early years, a child who grew up in Duke Town, the general who has stepped down from Eju, and now travels to Macedonia. The person you will see is him, and he is not perfect in this world. How he exists depends on his purpose in the world. His Majesty wants to see him, depending on His purpose. You can use as much as you can Do it your way, as long as it makes sense. "

Philip II nodded and said, "Oh, I see. Thank you, Mr.!"

On the second day, Philip II ordered to reward Aristotle, and set up a private banquet in the palace. At the same time, he invited two heroes who had assisted the mission on the road to attend. thank. Amon and Medanzo followed Assyria to the palace, and Philip II finally saw the gods.

If Philip II did not know Amon's identity, as a king, he would just sit there waiting for a briefing from the housekeeper, but at this moment he personally greeted the door of the banquet hall. Aristotle came with Amon and Medanzo and introduced the two "heroes" to the king. Amon naturally bowed to Philip II.

Philip II hurried forward to stop and said, "Two heroes, don't be polite. Today, we specially banquet to thank you."

After attending the banquet, the king offered a toast, and Amon raised his glass. There were many questions in Philip II's heart, but the first sentence he said was: "Mr. Amon, you have been to many places. Why did you come to Macedonia?"

Amon replied, "I came to the Heaton Peninsula to visit Mr. Aristotle, so I came."

Philip II asked again, "How do you see the situation here in the Heaton Peninsula and the future of the Kingdom of Macedonia?"

Amon smiled and looked at Philip II: "It depends on you, not on me. I would like to ask, what is Your Majesty's vision for the future of the Kingdom of Macedonia?"

Philip II replied: "My idea is to form a unified alliance for the entire Heaton Peninsula. It was because of this that we could repel the Boz attacks. Now, due to the civil unrest in Heaton, Boz talents will come back. . "

Amon smiled again: "Actually, Aaron and Kibada have the same idea, but they use the wrong methods and are doomed to fail. You have hope to fulfill your vow, but the enemy on this road is not Little, if the day comes to fulfill the vow, you will find that it is not the end of desire. "

Philip II sighed: "Of course, the vow is not easy to achieve, but no matter how many enemies I have, I will try my best to do it. If there is that day, then I will talk about the rest. I am not a **** and cannot learn more. "

Amon shook his head and said, "I used to think so, thinking that the vows on earth are not easy, so it is not easy to realize. Later, I realized that the simplest vows are actually the hardest. There are always more desires to drive Keep people moving .... Her Majesty the King, I admire your courage and ambition, and help you good luck! "

Next, the banquet discussed a lot of military, political, and mainland issues, and they did not go beyond the scope of human affairs. Instead, Medanzo had the most words. Amon did not make Philip II embarrassed, nor did he disrespect the king and the **** he believed in. He displayed a very calm and true character, whether it was a **** or not, he was that Amon.

Perhaps because of this, Philip II felt uncomfortable. The king was even vaguely uncomfortable. He wasn't disrespectful to Amon, but he didn't want to get along with Amon in the subconscious, because it didn't feel good. Amon always looked straight into his eyes when speaking, his eyes seemed to be enough to see the soul, which made a monarch quite uncomfortable.

Who would look at him like this? Who would talk to him like this? Philip II preferred to sacrifice to the deities on the altar and bow down, but subconsciously would not like to drink with a "mortal" like this. Amon did not deliberately display the frame of the gods, and he did not stand up. He just said a few words, but it made Philip II, who was praised by all the people, feel a bit unstable.

Offering sacrifices to the gods on behalf of the people also means that there is the supreme glory granted by the gods in the world; sitting at a table with the gods and drinking, the careful atmosphere does not dare to pant, and feels uncomfortable. It is a completely different feeling.

After the banquet, Philip II sighed the guests personally to the gate of the palace. Amon did not ask for more, and Philip II did not make special arrangements, and Amon lived in Aristotle's house. He didn't want to see the **** again, but he couldn't let it go, so he ordered his son Alexander to go to Aristotle's house to ask his teacher for advice.

Aristotle was a court teacher in Alexandria. He taught Alexandria a variety of knowledge. Of course, the previous locations were in the palace. The time depends on the convenience of Alexandria. But now things have changed. Philip II specifically ordered his son to go to Aristotle's house every day to listen to the teachings, and secretly told him Amon's identity.

It is not difficult to understand that Philip II would do this. After all, Amon is a god, possessing abilities that mortals do not possess, and possessing secrets that mortals do not know. Although Philip II did not believe in Amon, but there was a **** in Macedonia, how could he not want to let his son get some light and get some benefits? As for what can be obtained from the gods, it depends on Alexander's own luck.

The King's carefulness, of course, Aristotle knew, but he never broke it. From this day, the place where Alexander was taught was changed to Aristotle's house. Alexander would come every day, sometimes studying, sometimes greeting the teacher. After Aristotle gave the lesson, the prince let the prince play in the house at will.

In Amon's view, Aristotle was perhaps the best teacher of Heaton, and Philip II could really invite him to have a vision. But the student Alexander does not think so. He is the son of Philip II and the future heir of the Kingdom of Macedonia. It can be said that there is anything he wants, and that he can learn anything according to his own interests. miner.

Alexander has a natural nature, and he does n’t like to study. Aristotle is a pedantic old scholar in his eyes. Out of respect for his teacher, the prince often stubbornly learns all kinds of knowledge, but only In order to cope with the task, I just hope to end the course quickly to go out for horseback safari, or to gather guards to perform military formations.

But now that Alexander has changed his character under his father's will, he has never been so diligent and eager to ask. He went to the teacher's house every day to ask for advice. Of course, after studying, it is the happiest time for this young prince. Not only did he meet the legendary true deities here, but he also became familiar with Medanzo.
