Chapter 337: Ashes

What kind of person is North Carolina? Don't look at her small size as if she was a large Lori, I think North Carolina is a soft and cute girl, in fact, when fighting, North Carolina is even wilder than most ship girls, and in this regard, even Washington may not be able to compare with her.

And after seeing North Carolina, Ash almost felt the battle intent from North Carolina in the blink of an eye, but he directly turned a blind eye to the overflowing war intent Ash of North Carolina, for Ash, the battle is just an action that will be taken when there is no way, and the continuation of the flame is his only goal, as for the rest, he can completely stand aside.

Therefore, North Carolina is very sad, if the other party fights directly with herself because of her own challenge, then even if she knows that she is the first to provoke the trouble, others will not be very good at stopping her, as long as she does not really kill the ashes, then there will be no big deal, at most it is just a matter of reprimanding one or two sentences.

But! The ash on the other side did not take his own provocation, even if he had thrown his battle intent directly on the other party's face, the other party still looked like nothing had happened, and was still carefully asking about the various details of the knight he had seen, which made North Carolina feel painful, and now this kind of blatant provocation is already the bottom line, if she really does it first, there will be absolutely no good fruit to eat in the end, and the gain will outweigh the loss.

North Carolina is very annoyed, but Ash is very happy, although he is constantly provoked by North Carolina, but it is not a matter at all in front of the news he gets, not to mention North Carolina's small provocation, even if he is killed by North Carolina a few times, he will not care, anyway, as an ash, he himself is a dead man, and he himself is probably not clear how many times he has died in the process of passing the fire, and it is not a big problem to die a few more times.

The Prince of Wales naturally discovered the change in Ash's feelings, although the mood of North Carolina beside her became very low, but North Carolina's mood was not a big deal, anyway, as long as there was a battle, North Carolina would be able to recover immediately, the Prince of Wales would not think that they would retreat now, and as long as they continued to explore here, would there be no battle?

In contrast, what information Ash knows is more important, and perhaps the shipwives will be able to make some surprising discoveries from Ash to figure out what has happened to the Broken Isles and the world at large.

"Can you tell me about these things?"

Without any beating around the bush, the Prince of Wales directly asked about the ashes, in this case, rounding the bush will only arouse the vigilance of the other party, which is still not a good communication conditions for the two sides, it will only cause a huge estrangement, this situation is very bad for the ship girls, although the ship girls are not afraid of the enemy, but there is no benefit to the ship girls to set up a strange enemy for no reason.

"I'm Ash, you can call me Ember, it's actually the same thing. ”

After a moment of deliberation on his words, Ash began to tell his story in his own torn voice, a story that might have been a little long, and when Ash began to tell his story, the Prince of Wales sat beside Ash without the slightest estimate, listening intently to the story.

"No one knows when, maybe 10,000 years ago, maybe 20,000 years ago, maybe 100,000 years ago? All the records only know that it was a long time ago, the flame brought us light and warmth, and also brought life and death to the world, and those who served the flame gained great power, and through this power, they defeated the ancient dragons, and then established a prosperous and powerful civilization. ”

While talking about the glory of the past, the Prince of Wales sensed the yearning in Ash's tone, and it was obvious that the once glorious civilization made him yearn for it, and this mood lasted only a short time, and Ash soon continued to tell his story.

"However, nothing is eternal, even the flame that changed the whole world is the same, in the continuous burning, the flame gradually weakens, if we do not make any changes, the flame will be extinguished sooner or later, and without the flame, the whole world will be shrouded in darkness again, but we have long been accustomed to the flame and we have no way to return to the darkness. ”

His voice was a little low, but Ash continued to tell everything he knew, slowly but surely, while the Prince of Wales listened quietly, and then silently sorted everything out.

"We don't want the flame to be extinguished, and the original king brought us a solution - to use himself as firewood, and then let the flame continue to burn, and those who were used as firewood were called salarymen. ”

It seemed to be nostalgia and yearning, and the voice of the ash became a little ethereal, but his voice was not interrupted by this, and the feelings in the hoarse voice gradually became stronger.

"It's a pity that this method can only temporarily make the flame vigorous, and it can last for hundreds of years, and the flame will eventually be extinguished, even if we fill in the human nature and soul we don't know how much, it will only be a situation that lasts for hundreds of years. ”

When he said this, Ash couldn't help but shake his head, I don't know how many people's sacrifices, every time the fire will bring them great harm, but they have no way to give up the flame, in the end, the whole world is gradually broken up in the seemingly endless fire transmission again and again.

"When the flame is about to be extinguished, the darkness will begin to infest the earth again, and because of the return of darkness, the boundary between life and death will gradually blur, and it is because of this that the undead are born, and the undead are the best vessels for transmitting fire. ”

There was a slight pause, and then Ash continued, "But not all undead are qualified to pass fire, and many of them have been burned to ashes by the flames, and I am one of them. ”

"What's even more ironic is that at the time of the last fire, the undead are about to die, and the undead can indeed be resurrected continuously, but the resurrection comes at a cost, and every time the undead are resurrected, they will lose part of their humanity, and when the humanity is exhausted, the undead become living corpses. ”

"So soon, the flame bearer has gone from being an immortal to ashes, as an ash that has no way to burn, it is unexpectedly suitable to contain souls, and the ashes who are hungry for flames will also do everything in their power to pursue the flames, is there a more perfect fire transmission tool than this?"

The sound of the ashes was full of the end, and I don't know if he was lamenting for the world or for himself.
