Chapter Sixty-Nine: Unless You Go That Far
Wang Zhi followed the queen up the stairs, and the half-demons on both sides of the stone steps of the temple looked much more noble, not only did they look more pure, but even many of them were pure people, at least from the outside, they couldn't see anything unusual at all, and their clothes were obviously much more luxurious, compared to the half-demons below who didn't even cover their bodies, the days seemed to be not a little moisturized.
Wang Zhi also looked at it casually, such a scene was nothing to him at all, and he didn't pay much attention to the people around him, all the way up to the top of the stone steps.
After coming up, this is a huge square, and inside the square is the huge temple that Wang Zhi saw below, and in front of the temple, a huge statue stands tall.
The statue is a man with wings, tall and handsome.
The queen bowed to the statue and said, "This is the ancestor who founded the half-demon city, and under his leadership, we have a place for the half-demon to stand." ”
Although Wang Zhi didn't have much affection for the half-demons, he still couldn't help but be in awe of the hero in front of him, and he also bent down slightly with the queen.
After worshipping the ancestors, the queen led everyone into the front of the temple, the huge hall in the temple, the door was opened, the queen came directly to the top of the throne to sit down, Wang Zhi was led to a position by the maid, but there was nothing to sit on, he looked down, only to find that everyone below was standing, and the queen alone had a super-large chair.
The queen sat majestically on the top chair and said in a deep voice: "All the patriarchs have worked hard, today, this king has brought a guest, and he is a guest from the outside world. ”
The queen's voice was not loud, but her voice was obviously amplified in the hall, and even echoed in the entire hall, after she finished speaking, the entire hall immediately became agitated, everyone looked at Wang Zhi, and even a human being who was impatient stepped forward directly to Wang Zhi's face only a few meters away, and asked in a hurry for a while.
Zheng Likai could only quickly translate to Wang Zhi: "He asked if you really came from outside?" What is the outside world like now? ”
Before Wang Zhi could think about how to answer his question, another strange man with a human upper body and a snake on his lower body also swam over, and there was another round of questioning.
Wang Zhi's head was big when he heard this, and he turned his head to look at Zheng Likai, Zheng Likai was so anxious to see this and that, and finally he could only look at Wang Zhi and said: "They want to know everything, but so many people ask together, I don't know who to translate first." ”
Wang Zhi frowned when he heard this, and the half-demons around him were chaotic and didn't even have an order, feeling like grabbing a bargain in the vegetable market, he had to look at the queen who was high up, but the queen's expression was indifferent, and she didn't seem to care about the chaos in the hall, and even vaguely had a hint of a smile.
Wang Zhi was stunned for a moment, he really didn't understand how this queen was doing, but the queen didn't call the shots, and Wang Zhi didn't bother to be polite to the people below, he had enough strength, and suddenly yelled: "Shut up Lao Tzu!" ”
A large group of chaotic human races and half-demons, although they couldn't understand what Wang Zhi was roaring, but this momentum alone had already suppressed them, and everyone closed their mouths and looked at Wang Zhi stupidly.
Wang Zhi snorted coldly and said, "Look at what you look like, don't you even have basic politeness?" To ask questions, come one by one. He said and looked at the group of people in front of him, and then casually clicked on a man who looked slightly pleasing to the eye and said, "You say it first!" ”
Zheng Likai helped Wang Zhi translate at any time, Wang Zhi pointed out the person, the person who couldn't tell whether it was a human race or a half-human race, immediately stepped forward, first bent down to Wang Zhi and said: "Respected lord, we want to know, what is the outside world like now?" ”
Wang Zhi just said the words that he had prepared a long time ago, anyway, he also told the queen again, in fact, he didn't really want to rely on the queen now, he now knew very well, the queen's ability to control the entire half-demon city, if there was only a little residual power left, these patriarchs just left enough face for her, but when it was related to the fundamental interests, they didn't even bother to save any face for the queen.
He tried to make things as clear as possible, and he didn't have any special words, he already had his own plan in mind, whether these half-demons wanted to leave or not, he had to borrow their power, and he had to let them help him leave.
By the time Wang Zhi had roughly explained the situation in the outside world, there was even more commotion in the hall, and everyone was discussing something with each other, and it seemed that everyone's opinions were very different, and there were already obvious quarrels.
Only the queen sat on the throne, without saying a word, even on a high level, as if it had nothing to do with the discussion in front of her, and finally, someone, like Wang Zhi, noticed the queen sitting on the throne and threw the question to her.
Zheng Likai dutifully explained to Wang Zhi and the other three gods what happened in the hall, including everyone's quarrel, at this time, the queen finally stood up and said: "The half-demon city is everyone's half-demon city, and this matter is not easy for this king to make decisions without authorization, and it is up to the patriarchs to discuss." ”
The problem was thrown back so easily, Wang Zhi looked at the queen's appearance, his mind was smart, he tried hard to think about all the conversations between this queen and himself after he saw the queen, and suddenly he understood a little, the queen's control over the half-demon city is indeed weak, that is because the half-demon city is small, but there is no external pressure, originally, as long as the dominance of her Yuren clan is not threatened, she does not need to come out to offend anyone, all of them let the following patriarchs grow stronger and stronger, and become more and more unsightly.
But now that the gate of the half-demon city is open, and a powerful enemy may come in at any time, she is only afraid, she no longer wants to tolerate the scattered order in front of her, as for what she said about the half-demon city's reluctance to return to the world, it is really difficult to say whether it is true or false.
The quarrel below was even more vigorous, and finally someone couldn't help but step forward and ask Wang Zhidao: "Immortal Chief, dare to ask you if you have a way to leave the Half-Demon City?" If we return to earth now, is it possible to find a place to live? ”
Wang Zhi looked at this half-demon who looked like a human being, and his heart was bright, and sure enough, as the queen said, those who were anxious to return to the world were indeed those half-demons who had returned to the human appearance, and the other half-demons who looked too weird were not so anxious.
He said with a shallow smile on his face: "It's really hard for me to say about this matter, because I can't represent the attitude of everyone in the world, what will happen when you return to the world, unless you come to that point, no one can say!" ”
