In the end, the goddess Qingling was left on the earth by the Lord of the North Wind and asked Ji Le to take care of it.

The secret meaning of this is to use Qingling as a hostage to carry out the deep cooperation between the gods of the north wind and the Xia Kingdom. As for the goddess Yuanxi who was already in the Xia Kingdom?

I'm sorry, but the Lord of the North Wind can't control this daughter. can only turn a blind eye to her behavior. Therefore, the goddess Qingling is the proton who truly represents the gods of the north wind and is the bridge between the two sides.

And this means that Xia Guo really opens the way among the gods and has an "ally" who can help him speak.

But the premise of all this is naturally the priesthood of "winter" that the Lord of the North Wind wants. If Ji Le can't give a satisfactory answer, I'm afraid that the Lord of the North Wind will not let Xia Guo go in the first place.

For this reason, on Tumu's National Day, Ji Le deliberately sat next to Finity and asked the Doya Kingdom about the research of the "Cooling Divine Technique".

Why can the goddess Qingling make snowflakes?

According to the goddess's explanation afterwards, she used a technique that had not yet been successfully studied in the Boya Kingdom.

The kingdom of Doga is proficient in magic and follows the path of pure magic. In their minds, temperature is related to fire. As the temperature of the flame is raised, it can burst the air and exert more powerful attack power.

As a result, some people asked: since the increase in temperature can produce powerful damage, what about lowering the temperature?

This is the cooling experiment of the Toya Kingdom, which is also the only country among the kingdoms of the earth that uses "experiments" to study the truth.

"Your Highness, to what extent have you Doya studied cooling technology?"

Finity looked at Ji Le in surprise: "Where did Your Highness hear that we have this kind of technology?"

"Isn't it?"

After thinking for a while, Finidea nodded: "Yes, indeed." But at the moment, it can only cool the water, and there is no other effect. ”

From Qing Ling, I learned that the current research of the Duoya Kingdom can only reduce the temperature to about five degrees Celsius. If you want to gather water and condense ice, it's still a little short.

But they are not on the wrong path. It is through the concept of the research of the Boya Kingdom that the goddess of Qingling further compresses with divine power, condenses water vapor, and lowers the temperature, which promotes the phenomenon of ice and snow.

Ji Le muttered: "Regarding the research of your country, do you plan to join forces with our Xia Kingdom? We also have research on cooling, why don't we build a laboratory together to conduct similar cooling research?"

Perhaps, this was the first transnational scientific laboratory in the age of savagery?

"You're interested in this too?" said Finitya, surprised. Throughout the kingdoms of the earth, many other countries have contempt for the theories of the study of the Toya Kingdom. Their elemental magic system is out of place in the whole land. After all, in this era, magic is everything, and force is king. The Doya Kingdom's approach of digging deep into the theory of the elements of the world is very unpopular with everyone.

As long as the magic power can be used, why do you need to delve into the principles behind it?

"Xia Guo is also interested in the Theory of Truth?"

"The world is made up of laws, and in the words of our Xia Kingdom, that is the 'Heavenly Dao'. Studying the workings of the Tao is helpful for us to construct our spiritual system. ”

Whether it is seeking the Tao or science, including the true theory of the Toya Kingdom. They are all objective studies of the existing system of the world and the essence of the world. The resulting disciplines can be called "physics", "chemistry", "cultivation", "alchemy", and so on.

"We in Xia also have a set of means to study the roots of the world, and joint action with your country may allow each other to improve. ”

With the help of the ready-made research of the Doga Kingdom, the Xia Kingdom can avoid many detours and complete the theory of the Law of Winter.

The two national spirits soon reached a tacit understanding in the "joint laboratory", Ji Le raised the golden cup, and the two countries touched it lightly, and continued to pay attention to the affairs of Tumu's side.

Today is the 800th anniversary of the birth of Tumu Guoling, and Tumu Guoling invites all his companions to enter the temple and lift this golden temple into the air to look at the palace below.

Everyone understands that if there is a great change in the kingdom of Tumu, it must be today, and it must start from the royal palace.

On the 800th National Day, the king summoned all the major families to celebrate in the kingdom.

"Today, our country has truly been established for 800 years. The king was in high spirits, holding a scepter in his hand, and stood before the crowd: "Eight hundred years, our country can be said to be the oldest kingdom on the earth. ”

"If you count the history before the Saint Luo Dynasty, it's even more ancient. ”

Their so-called 800-year history dates from the founding of the royal family. Since the royal family of San Luo made a covenant in the city, they have ruled the kingdom for 800 years. And if you count the era before Mother Earth...... You must know that the gods of war all came out of Tumu back then. It's just that that era was not a patrilineal society, but a matrilineal era dominated by the earth mother.

"Over the past 800 years, we have experienced generations of kings who have led us in the wilderness, opened up the history of our kingdom, and established our current position. ”

"Now, there is only one person left in the royal family to this king's generation. The king's brother died in battles to defend his country. The king's children, the three adult princes, also died in the battle to protect the people. ”

"It can be said that if this king closes his eyes today, perhaps the royal family will be completely cut off. ”

In the end, the king himself joked, but no one dared to laugh.

That's right, the royal family of San Luo gave everything to protect the country. Brothers, sons, the king has paid too much for this.

"The king knows that these days there are people who are trying to take the throne and become the new master of Tumu. ”

"But do you know what the throne means, what are the duties and responsibilities of a king?"

"Are you a good king because you eat the best food of the country and wear the finest clothes?"

"This king has a friend who once said, 'If you do not accept the burden of the country, how can you be king?'. A king needs to carry the weight of the whole country on his own. The people are my children, and as a father, as a king, I have an obligation to protect each and every one of my children. ”

"But now, I can only watch some unsuccessful children, for their selfish desires, fighting for a responsibility that they can't afford!"

The king's words shook everyone present and did not dare to speak.

In mid-air, in the temple where Tumu was raised, the national spirits heard this speech and showed their approval.

Especially Ji Le and Rome, I felt it even more deeply.

The reason why no kings of later generations were brought over was that in addition to worrying that those kings who were good at scheming would come and seize power, they were also worried that the gap between their era and the barbarian era was too great.

There is a decisive difference between the first kings of the barbarian era and the monarchs of later civilized generations.

In the age of the wilderness, responsibility outweighed power, and the treatment enjoyed by the chiefs was simply not comparable to the responsibilities they assumed.

In the barbarian era, what is needed is not a "ruler of the world" who steps on everyone's heads, balances the people with the emperor's mental skills, intrigues internally, and plays something to suppress the family and weaken the vassal king. It is a leader who can fight, stand out in public, and lead all his clansmen to overcome obstacles and survive in this mythical era.

A hero who walks forward in the dark, holds the torch, dispels the fear and despair of all the clansmen, and carries the hope of all people.

At the end of the day, kings are mortal too. How can they lead the people in front of them without fear? How can they not be at a loss? But as kings, they must restrain their emotions, face their fears into the darkness, and lead the people behind them step by step.

"That's why the Yang family has the saying of 'a hundred years of relics, Wang Zuo continues'. ”

The Yang family, regardless of Yang Ke's ancestors for three generations, even if Yang Ke is often ridiculed by Ji Le for his immature means, he has to admit it. Before Ji Le arrived, it was Yang Ke who supported the entire Xia Kingdom alone.

Listening to the king's words, and then looking at the excited expression of Tumu Guoling beside him, Ji Le secretly said in his heart: "After you go back, do you want to be kind to Yang Ke? Perhaps, don't trouble him within three days?"

When the other national spirits saw Tumu's expression, they were even more moved. They are similar to Tumu Guoling, they both grew up in the royal family. They have a deep relationship with the royal family, and they have witnessed the efforts of generations of kings. Therefore, they really did not want the royal family to be destroyed.

Therefore, in this great change, Tumu Guoling has long held the heart of jade and stone, and wants to advance and retreat with the royal family.

"Face the darkness and rule the light, are you people vying for the throne after this king, and are you ready to bear the weight of all the citizens of the whole country!"

Hearing King Shengluo's words, Ji Le suddenly got up and raised his glass: "In the barbarian era, the ancestors of the kings of various countries overcame obstacles and opened up the glory of humanity. Ladies and gentlemen, this cup is a tribute to the kings of our nations!"

All the national spirits stood up one after another and raised their glasses to drink.

As everyone drank, a phantrum of the Ancestor King appeared behind them. Among them, the number of kings behind the spirit of the kingdom of Etulmu is even greater, since the ancestor of the Holy Luo who made a covenant with the gods with a spear 800 years ago. Generations of the royal family of Saint Luo died on the battlefield, using their own blood to ensure the continuation of the country.

Seeing the dazzling humanitarian brilliance, Ji Le couldn't help but lose his mind.

This is the first king of the barbarian era.

They may worship and revere the gods as gods, but as part of the human race, they suppress the panic and fear in their hearts, lead the country to prosperity, and lay the foundation for a future humane prosperity.

Foreign kingdoms such as Toya, Bardo, Toreim, and even Rome had their ancestors appear around them and drink this cup of wine.

Only Ji Le himself and Karp Guoling, there is no spirit of the ancestor king around the two.

"I don't have the souls of the ancestors of the Yang family in my body. Why didn't the Cockap summon the kings of the country?"

The thought flashed through Ji Le's mind, and he looked at Karp in disbelief.

And the two demigod national spirits were unable to summon the first king, which made many national spirits show surprised expressions.

At this time, Rome came out to relieve the siege: "Everyone, I will also have a drink with you, for the heroic souls of our countries!"

In addition to the leaders of various countries who blazed a trail, there were also many heroic martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country. The number of martyrs in this part is even greater. Even around Ji Le, there is a group of heroic souls appearing. For example, Yu Yuan's grandfather, Deng Kai, and Liu Yingyang's predecessors are all there.

"Then the third cup is to salute the future of our national spirit. After his companions drank the second cup, Tumu raised his glass with a smile: "The earth of the future belongs to us, for our future, for the prosperity of civilization, congratulations!"

Ladies and gentlemen, take another drink. At this moment, they suddenly heard the sound of fighting below.

After the king's words, several silver families finally couldn't sit still. The illegitimate son of the royal family of Saint-Lo who they supported is in a position to seize power today.

Seeing the poor dagger, more than a dozen demigods appeared together, bringing thousands of elite soldiers into the palace.

The king sighed faintly, waved his scepter, and showed his own army, and several demigods in the royal family also appeared, facing the hostile demigods in the air.

As for the Golden Family, the Tours of the Aeolus family, the Bol family of the Sun God family, and the Vaal family of the Thor family teamed up to strangle the Luna family and lead the traditional forces and the emerging families into battle.

Poof—

The national spirits watched as the Tumu national spirits shot blood.

In the blink of an eye, he was stained red with blood. At this moment, the national spirit still maintains a toast posture.

The old national spirit endured the severe pain, maintained his demeanor, and smiled at everyone: "Everyone, wait for the ending with me." ”

His face turned pale, and he sat down silently, waiting for his fate to be decided.

Humanity will surely flourish, and the brilliance of civilization will surely illuminate the whole earth. But on that day, as the most ancient national spirit, can you still see it?

The old man closed his eyes and endured the stinging pain of burning in his internal organs, waiting for the outcome of this civil strife.
