Volume 1 [Flame Chapter] Dragon Death Chapter 118 Dragon Book (1)
The war horses of Luojia Nandu stepped on the sound of iron hooves, gradually crossing the verdant and dusty border, and gradually stepped into the original suburbs of Nandu.
If there were no dragon relics, there would not be a large desert area in the southern capital. Now that the last dragon in the dragon ruins has dissipated and no longer has any soul, the dragon ruins and those dragon realms that record history have been completely destroyed, and I don't know how long it will take to lose human activity before they can return to the green and tranquility of five hundred years ago.
"Lord Luo, do you really know Pandora's Box?" Stepping on the gentle sound of horses' hooves, Ye Gu smiled at Luo Heng on the side.
"Tell me about it?" Luo Heng turned around and said.
"Legend has it that Pandora was the first human woman created by the king of the gods in the West, and she possessed beauty and allure that could not be matched by ordinary people. It's like the beautiful Dongshe who was in turmoil a hundred years ago, but Pandora is different from her, she has the attention of God. ”
"God? That's really lucky. Luo Heng didn't know why, and said with envy.
"That's right. God gave her a magic box and warned her not to open it under any circumstances, as it would lead to disaster. But she could not withstand the most urgent emotional tendencies of the human soul. So a catastrophe happened. ”
"It must be curiosity. I heard a Westerner mention it. Luo Heng added.
"That's right. Intrigued, she opened the box. The world, which was once full of love, harmony and hope, was suddenly enveloped by illness, death and pain. Therefore, Pandora's box is also called ominous by later generations. ”
"Well, sickness and suffering are themselves an inherent part of this world. It's as if people are born and die, and it's inevitable. You said yes, right?" Luo Heng then asked.
"yes. To be honest, I have also been thinking about what Lin Hai said in the government office at that time for the past two days. In other words, is there really a creator in this world? If so, can we humans find out a thing or two?" Ye Gu asked in a deep voice.
"I believe there is, and I hope so. Maybe you can listen to this point of view. ”
"I want to hear about it. ”
"The birth of humanity is inherently untraceable. Let's think of it as a creation of the Creator. In fact, the human beings created by the Creator are themselves true portrayals of themselves, and the purpose of his creation is also to better understand themselves. In fact, humans may not be satisfactory to him in many places, so he created the dragon clan to better guide and regulate humans. We humans sometimes do really badly. Luo Heng laughed at himself.
"Dragons regulate humans? So how can there be a war with humans? After all, it is the greed and cruelty of the dragon's nature that cut themselves off in the war of 500 years ago. Even if there were sporadic awake among them, they could not wake up those who were pretending to be asleep. Ye Gu commented.
Even if he saw the so-called "sober" dragons in the southern capital, it was not enough to subvert the traditional impression left by dragons in his heart. Even though he was a royal descendant of the Flame Empire, he still had half of the dragon blood in his blood.
The horse's hooves roamed at a slow pace on the border of the ancient city wall of the Southern Capital, and Ye Gu and Luo Heng didn't walk for long, and the familiar figure of the guard soldier came into the field of vision of several people.
A valley river divides the southern capital into two, with the old city on one side and the new city on the other. On the outskirts of the old town, there are still walls left over from the Dragon War, symbolizing the unforgettable history of mankind.
The old city wall still has a tall gate today, providing due help to the human beings of this era.
"See the patriarch. ”
Seeing Luo Heng's war horse approaching, the soldiers of the Luo family near the old city wall of the southern capital hurriedly stepped forward, knelt on one knee, and saluted with fists.
"Alright, get up. Open the door for us, and we will go back to the military station. Luo Heng commanded with his majesty.
"Lord Yegu. Luo Wu behind Luo Heng rode a war horse and walked in front of Ye Gu.
When the Luo family's reinforcements arrived before, Luo Wu sent Luo Longming to Ye Ran as soon as possible, asking him to take Luo Longming and Luo Sijie back to the Luo family's headquarters. After that, he rode his war horse again, silently following behind several people all the way without making a sound.
"Do you want to put on a cloak? Luo Wuyi suggested in a childish voice.
"Why? We have already arrived at the gate of Nandu, and we can enter the military station in a few steps. Ye Gu asked.
"That's right, although those six-pointed Star Shield supporters have been caught a lot, but they still have many other supporters in the Southern Capital, and we can't clean them up for a while. Now that we are in the light and they are in the dark, we better be careful. With that, Luo Wu took the cloak and hat handed over by the soldiers of the Luo family, and handed them to Ye Gu and Luo Heng together.
Luo Heng didn't say anything, and wore it directly on his body, which made Ye Gu feel that this suggestion was Luo Heng's acquiescence.
"Then, I won't refuse. It's still safety-oriented. Ye Gu said, took the cloak and put it on his body like Luo Heng.
For a while, the outfits of several people changed into uniform hats and cloaks. Like a merchant who traveled around the empire two hundred years ago.
Fortunately, the city of Nandu is a combination of the old and the new, and the new steam style does not fully exist in the old city, and similarly, the old ancient style is rarely seen in the new city.
In the old town, where the military post is located, this attire is not necessarily strange.
Riding a war horse slowly on the quaint streets of the old city of Nandu, Ye Gu's heart gained a moment of tranquility in the bustle.
From entering the southern capital to the present, only three days have passed. But the series of events that took place in these three days seemed to have made him go through a difficult three years.
The battle between ice and fire in the Southern Capital Consulate, the advice on the history of the former empire in the Dragon Realm Dragon Clan, the battle on the train and the six-pointed star shield around the ruins tower, and a series of new thinking on the mechanical airship have made his originally simple tasks full and heavy.
Now, Long Qing's future is becoming clearer, and his blocking ability and bargaining chips are enough for him to maneuver between humans and dragons, seeking a balance. But it is not known whether he will be able to find that mystery in the unknown.
"It's been less than twelve days since the Dragon's Gate fell. Ye Gu looked around and muttered.
Because his voice was too weak, Luo Heng on the side obviously didn't hear it clearly, and turned around and asked, "Lord Ye Gu, what did you say?"
"Oh, I mean it's not twelve days left. After going to the military station, you must arrange for me to return first. Ye Gu replied with a slight increase in his voice.
"That's natural, let Luo Sijie and Luo Wu accompany you back when the time comes. I believe that the history of 500 years ago will never be repeated in the empire. Luo Heng said firmly.
......
"Patriarch, my lord, you are here. ”
The soldiers of the Luo family at the gate of the Nandu Military Station saw Luo Heng and Ye Gu arriving on horseback, and quickly stepped forward to help a few people get off the war horses.
"The Nandu Military Station is even grander than the Ruling Office. Ye Gu looked around and blurted out.
"We have been in business for a hundred years, not to mention that the scale is better than the imperial capital, but compared to other cities in the ten provinces and four capitals of the empire, we still have to invest much more. The military is an imperial weapon, and it is the same everywhere. Luo Heng said confidently.
In Ye Gu's eyes, in fact, the Nandu Military Institute was more magnificent than the Imperial Capital Military Hall, but in order to take care of the imperial face, he was not embarrassed to export.
If the military office of the imperial capital is only one branch of the many administrative institutions of the imperial capital, which belongs to the most conspicuous floor of a high-rise building, then the military office of the southern capital belongs to a giant castle, which can accommodate thousands of people.
Looking inward from every angle of the southern capital, you can see the spire of the military castle and the imperial flag fluttering above. In addition, compared to the structure of the main building of the ruling office, in addition to the tall main building, the military station only has an open field and military barracks to serve the soldiers of the Southern Capital Empire.
Nandu No. 0, the main building of the military station.
"Luo Wu, there are "Dragon Book" and some other important objects on the underground floor of the military station, Luo Longming is not here, you are responsible for taking Lord Ye Gu to find out. Remember, it's important to know everything, and you can't say anything. Luo Heng commanded with his usual majesty.
"Yes, sir. Luo Wu bowed his head and agreed.
"What's the matter? You had something to do with the Ruins Tower that time, and something else to do this time?"
Seeing that Luo Heng turned around and was about to walk outside the military station, Ye Gu hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
"Lord Ye Gu, don't you want to watch "Dragon Book"? Luo Wu, this ready-made Demon Source Master, is here, I can't help you, he can. Moreover, it will not be long before the reply of the imperial capital will be sent to the southern capital. You are now in a state of semi-loss of contact with the imperial capital, and only if we report these things to you and the Lin family to the imperial capital, can we and you set off and return. Luo Heng explained.
"In this way, the Emperor of Hope can bring exciting news to all of us. Ye Gu smiled.
Immediately, a few people present, including Ye Gu, had to watch Luo Heng leave the Nandu Military Station with a brisk pace.
"My lord, please follow me into the underground of the military station. Luo Wu said, making a gesture of please.
As Ye Gu expected, Luo Wu's footsteps stopped in an inconspicuous room among the many rooms in the Consulate.
When he met Luo Sijie with Gu Lizhen, in the corner of this room full of daily decorations, Luo Wu had a lot of them and after a few taps, a hollow sound came into the ears of several people.
"You two, open this place. Luo Wu ordered to the soldiers in the military station.
In less than a minute, a small square space appeared in the eyes of several people.
In keeping with that thrilling time, it was still an entrance with a dark aura.
"Your Excellency, please. Luo Wu said, the probe entered, and after walking down a few steps, he stretched out his hand to invite Ye Gu to enter with him.
"Your Luo family really likes authenticity. Ye Gu sneered kindly, took Luo Heng's hand, and leaned into the steps and space.
"Just keep your guard at the door. Luo Wu ordered, and then pressed a secret and inconspicuous mechanism, and after the surrounding soldiers clenched their fists in agreement, the space above their heads was sealed again.
A few seconds later, as the sound of mechanical gears swept by, a few faint lights lit up around Ye Gu in the feeling of falling.
When the feeling of falling and gears ceased to continue in this faint darkness, with a heavy sound of opening the door, in the unbright space, a picture of machinery and magic intertwined appeared in front of Ye Gu's eyes.
