Chapter 1 The Gate of Desire Section 15 The Edict of the Demon Emperor
Another hour passed, and it wasn't until the halls of the Adventurers' Guild were filled with adventurers that the guild's leader, Lord Bellman, arrived late, along with Lord Naomi Breed, the magistrate of Misty Rose Town.
Lord Naomi Breed was the first to walk to the center of the hall, where the square table of rosewood was already placed. Lord Naomi Breed cleared his throat and said aloud, "Young men, I have brought the oracle to listen to the Emperor's instructions. ”
Lord Naomi put away a rare snake-like smile, solemnly took out a holy blue crystal ball from his bosom, and placed it respectfully on the square table, and then he was the first to bend down and kneel on one knee, followed by Lord Bellman, who also knelt in front of the crystal ball. All the demons in the hall knelt on the ground, and only Uenqi was still standing stupidly.
Wu Enqi scolded in his heart, he didn't want to bow down to the Demon Emperor of the Demon Clan, but the form forced Wu Enqi to bow down like a demon, but his knees did not touch the ground.
As if in response to the kneeling of many demons, the crystal ball released a clear and holy light, and in the light stood a proud back, he was wearing a wide star and moon robe, wearing a boundless golden hat, stepping on red boots, and holding a holy staff, he slowly turned around, with an incomparably holy coercion.
The demons in the hall all lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at their faces, only Wu Enqi raised his head defiantly, he wanted to see the appearance of the Holy Emperor clearly. Contrary to Unqi's expectations, he only saw a domineering, but young face. The Demon Emperor's closed eyes slowly opened, scanning the entire hall before his gaze fell on Unki's face.
"Oh no, he saw me!"
A feeling of impending catastrophe hit his heart, and Unqi hurriedly lowered his head, but just for that moment of looking at each other, Unqi felt that all his secrets had been seen through by the Demon Emperor.
Unqi was sweating profusely. A man's majestic voice sounded in his ears: "I am a servant of the Holy Spirit, a guide of the children of the Holy Spirit, Holy Emperor Tak Eberon." My people, listen to this message. When the funeral is approaching, the demons are raging. There is no difference between the upper and lower in the Holy Realm, there is no distinction between the high and the low, and the people, regardless of the difference between men and women, should work together to punish the demons and evils!"
The remnants of the oracle lingered, and the virtual image of the Holy Emperor gradually faded in a divine glow. Lord Naomi Breed walked to the center of the hall again and read out the exact contents of the Emperor's Edict. The content of the edict is threefold:
First, it is announced that the Demon Realm is no longer divided into the upper realm and the lower realm, and that they are all equal demon territories;
Second, it was announced that the eighteen ethnic groups of the demon race would treat each other equally, stop killing each other, and unite with the outside world;
Third, it was announced that no matter men, women, old or young, as long as they killed the demon spirit, they were all named nobles, killed the demon general, crowned as an earl, killed the demon leader, and crowned as the demon king.
After the edict was read, the hall of the Adventurer's Guild was full of excitement, as if glory and wealth had suddenly become within reach, and the demons were all crazy. Only Wu Enqi frowned, he smelled the smell of war, although it was only a war between the demons and the demons, but the lips were cold, if the demons were destroyed, would the boat people of Yunyun Mountain be able to survive alone?
Later in the evening, Unki found Anne by NightClan's houseboat and handed over a chubby, three-eyed wolf to the mischievous little girl.
Anne was overjoyed as she held the three-eyed demon wolf, but she pursed her mouth and returned the fluffy demon wolf to Unqi.
"I can't raise Dudu," said Anne aggrieved and sad, "I don't have anything to eat myself, and I have to rely on you to steal the guild's bread for me, what shall I feed it?"
Wu Enqi said: "You will be fine in the future, the Holy Emperor has just issued a holy decree, and from now on, all the Holy Clans in the Holy Domain will be treated equally, and everyone will work together to fight against the demon spirits." ”
Unqi read the contents of the edict to Anne in detail, but Anne listened to it and her expression became even more sad.
"Thank you for telling me this," said Anne angrily, "Eighteen races, don't that just not include us NightClan? I must hurry to inform the patriarch and Granny Catherina of this. ”
Anne said this, and hurried away. What Annie said is not wrong at all, the Six-Winged Heavenly Demon, the Abyss Alchemist, the Eight-Armed Demon, the Void Phantom Demon, the Titan Thunder Demon, the Chaos Dragon Demon, the Blasphemy Demon, the Whipping Demon, the Thousand-Eyed Demon, the Multi-Faced Demon, the Exploding Demon, the Abomination Demon, the Ice Demon, the Fire Demon, the Wind Demon, the Horned Demon, the Devouring Demon, the Shadow Demon, the eighteen demons are unanimous with the outside world, which does not include the Night Demon.
Unki lingered outside the NightClan houseboat for a long time, but Anne never came out. It was late at night, and Unch returned to the dilapidated house where he had settled alone.
Recalling the contents of the edict, Unchi fell into deep thought. If the elegant pardon is to ease the contradictions between the demons and a few barbarians, then the edict just issued is to integrate the internal relations of the demons, one externally and one internally, all to avoid disputes and fight against the demons with all their might. From this point of view, a decisive battle that is about to determine the hegemony of the original demon world is imminent.
The torrent of war will sweep everything, the wheels of war will roll in, and where will Unqi go, as a lonely boatman boy?
It was destined to be a sleepless night, and Unqi was deeply immersed in troubled thoughts.
For a moment, he thought of his heroic father, his old mother and his mischievous sister; for a while, he was very anxious because of the precarious situation in the Yunshan Mountains after the union of the demons; for a while, he seemed to see Bamubar, who was bold and ambitious and brave in the three armies, standing in front of him with a horizontal sword, killing nine Brilliant Flame Knights to make a bloody path for him; for a while, he recalled the helpless frustration and those vicious ridicules when the throne of the prince fell next to the throne of the prince.
The past is difficult to look back, but it has added new sorrows.
For more than ten days, there always seemed to be a faint fragrance, surrounding Wu Enqi's body, cutting continuously, lingering, lingering, and winding into hundreds of knots. Unqi asked himself countless times whether he had been poisoned or if he was genuinely in love with her. However, he couldn't figure it out, he didn't know her name and face, let alone where she was now.
Also on this night, two uninvited guests visited Unki's hut, both of whom wore pitch-black cloaks and hoods covering their faces.
An uninvited guest took off her hood, and she was the Wind Demon Maiden who had played Ice Demon Siddle at the gate of the union. Another uninvited guest, Unqi did not recognize, he was thin and pale, and he could be described as beautiful as a flower, but it was a pity that he was a man.
