Volume II. The First Advent of the Cloud Ancient Star Chapter 0091.The End of Grand Rongen
Grand Ronn, the main hall of the royal palace in the upper district.
In the huge main hall, King Leri sat on the throne, wearing a dark green cloak covered with golden lines, and his expression was gloomy.
With slightly cloudy eyes staring blankly at the Kingdom officials shrouded in the same cloak below, Leary sighed and asked weakly, "What ......is the current situation?" How's it going? ”
More than a dozen officials each glanced at each other, lowered their heads and did not speak, obviously there was no good news.
"Dumb?" Leary looked at this group of incompetent ministers, and suddenly became angry, and his palms "slammed" on the handle of the throne, startling everyone.
Leri also moved too much, causing the hood on his cloak to fall, revealing soft rabbit ears, and the fur on them looked like they had lost their luster and became very dry.
"Father, calm down."
A teenager standing on the left side of the throne comforted Leary, walked up behind him and put his hood back on.
This cloak is a special armor created by the Moon Temple in order to deal with the moonfall mist, although it has no effect on general magic attacks, but it can reduce the erosion rate of the fog on people, the full name is the Mist Cloak, which was later omitted into the Mist Cloak.
The Cloak is not for sale, and only those who participate in the Stone Hunting Season can be given it for free by the Moon Temple, but the empires and kingdoms of the Moonfall Continent still have limited purchase opportunities.
After all, these official forces are an important cornerstone of the moonset society, and the Moon Temple is still more concerned about their safety.
"Himmy, how's that guy on tour?" Leary also understood that now was not the time to get angry, and closed his eyes to calm his emotions.
"The Gaoye Alert Tower has collapsed, and I'm afraid the battle is fierce."
"What about Torafi?"
"There is no news yet, the fog has completely blocked Grand Rongen, and even Heartstone is difficult to contact her." Himi shook his head with a wry smile.
He had just returned to the palace from the academy today, and before he could see his mother, he was told that Grand Ronn had been invaded by the moonfall mist, and as the only eldest son of the king of the kingdom, he had to go to the main hall and listen to the king's orders with his ministers.
When Himi came to the main hall to see his father, he suddenly found that his father, whom he hadn't seen for a day, seemed to have aged dozens of years all of a sudden, and had lost his former high-spirited appearance.
“...... What about the port of berth? Can the airship be started? ”
"No, the city defense array has the strongest protection in the port of mooring, and without more than half of the guard towers operating together, it is impossible to open the entrance and exit there."
"Isn't the control of the Alert Tower dispersed to the major families? Why was Mu still able to control more than half of the cornerstones of the magic circle? Leary glared angrily at the ministers, and scanned around to see that none of them dared to look up at him, and all of them pretended to be deaf and dumb ostriches.
This bunch of damned state moths!
Lery's hands clenched and then let go, feeling that he was about to lose control of his emotions: "Isn't there no good news?" ”
"Yes!" Finally, a minister stepped forward.
Himi looked over and saw that it was an old Canine evolutionary species, as if it was a family called Vesta who had moved to the position of Rebet's diplomat.
Although the Kingdom of Rebet is a country dominated by rabbits, it does not use all its own people to hold important official positions, and there are many other species like Vesta, which is an open policy for the inflow of talents.
"You say."
"The guard tower in the upper area has not been infiltrated by Prince Mu, and just now we found a message delivered by a heartstone."
When Leri heard this, his eyes suddenly narrowed, and he asked, "Can the heart stone still be used in this situation?" ”
In fact, when the Connecting Stone was first developed, the Moonfall Mist could not weaken its effect, but as the people who carried out the Stone Hunting Operation continued to use the Connecting Stone in the mist, the Mist gradually developed the ability to hinder its efficacy.
Like humans, the mist is constantly evolving, and now some of the lower quality Hearts Stones are no longer available in the Mist's range.
"It should be a higher quality stone." Vesta shook his tail, which, like Lery's rabbit ears, had lost its luster.
"So what's the news?"
"Stolinidad has sent two Imperial Orders to Grangron, and it is expected to arrive before zero hours."
"Light zero hour? By that time, our people will have become slaves to the fog! It was another official standing behind Vesta who was the tax collector of Rebet, with two snow-white front teeth peeking out of a rabbit lip, and if you didn't look closely, you would think it was an evolution of the rat genus.
"Stolinidad? Isn't that the trade capital controlled by the Moon Temple? How did they come over? Lery frowned, even more uneasy.
Himi on the side suddenly said, "This should be a message sent by Teacher Zhang asking for help." ”
"Teacher Zhang?" Most of the people present felt a little unfamiliar with it.
Only an old man of the rabbit genus who was standing in front of the officials reacted and said, "Is it the auxiliary teacher of the Moon Palace?" ”
"That's right." Himi nodded, he had been taught a few advanced courses by Zhang Zhengyao on the Earth Formation Circle, and he was quite familiar with it.
"That's bad." The old man frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
Seeing this, Himi was a little puzzled, it stands to reason that it is a good thing to have reinforcements, why would the dean of Wangcheng Academy say that it is bad?
That's right, this old man of the rabbit genus is the founder of the Grand Ron Academy, and he holds an official position in the education and cultural management of the kingdom.
"Himi, in fact, every kingdom is more or less against the Moon Temple, because they can destroy us with a single word, and our existence is completely in their hands." Leri opened his mouth to explain: "Although it is said that the Moon Hall will not interfere in the internal affairs of the kingdom, it does not mean that it cannot interfere. ”
"Do you know what would happen if you let them know that Grand Ronn was invaded by the Moonfall Mist?"
“...... Yes, what will happen? Himi was frightened by his father's serious expression, and an ominous premonition welled up in his heart.
"That would be the end of Grand Ron." The dean of the academy took Leary's words and said to Himi: "The Moon Temple has always had a zero-tolerance attitude towards the existence of the mist, once it is confirmed that we have produced a large-scale moonfall mist here, then there is only one result, that is, along with the other cities of Rebet, it will be wiped out, and the kingdom of Rebet will cease to exist!" ”
Himi's eyes widened for a moment, and he asked in disbelief, "Why do you want to destroy other places?" Where there is fog, there is only Grand Ronne? ”
"This is the style of the Moon Palace, we have no strength to resist, we can only bear it silently."
"So, what about us? What about our people? ”
"All those who enter the third stage of moonfall syndrome will be killed on the spot, and the rest will be isolated for observation, and if there are signs of deterioration, they will be immediately executed, and those whose conditions improve after a year can be released."
"This, this is too overbearing, isn't it? Don't they have a little compassion? It's not like we want the Moonfall Mist to be here! ”
"That's why I didn't ask for help from the Moon Temple in the first place, they will definitely destroy our country without hesitation, as for compassion......" Leary sneered when he heard this, "If they had this thing, your mother's race wouldn't have been slaughtered by nearly ninety percent!" ”
"What...... What the! After listening to Leary's words, Himi's pupils shrank suddenly, and his body trembled slightly: "But isn't it said that our rabbits have always wanted to kill each other, and my mother was forced to agree to marry my father in order to preserve the fire of the race?" ”
Leary shook his head, a hint of hatred in his eyes, "It's time to tell you the truth." ”
"Back then, a latent type of moonset mist appeared in your mother's country, because of its extremely strong concealment, it spread there for several years before it was discovered by the Moon Temple, almost every citizen was infected with moonfall syndrome, and it was too late for the Moon Temple to save it, so it was decided to exterminate this country."
"Then why is Mother still alive?" Himi's breathing grew heavier, and his nerves tensed involuntarily.
"Your mother happened to travel abroad with her classmates from their academy at that time, and she escaped the time period when the spread was most rapid, although she was still infected after returning in the end, but it was not serious, and the Moon Temple was originally intended to dispose of this group of students who had the hope of being cured...... But I met your mother during my travels, and after a period of getting along, I fell in love, and in order for me to save her, I agreed to one of the conditions of the Moon Temple......"
"On what terms?"
Not only Himi, but all the officials present were curious.
"Although the Moon Palace doesn't care about its image in people's hearts, it's still a bit troublesome to slaughter a kingdom, and I got together at this time, just so that they can be black pot ......"
"In other words, we didn't fight a national war with each other at all?" The dean of the academy suddenly said that even he didn't know this kind of secret, and the sudden outbreak of conflict between the two countries back then was already weird, which made many people scratch their heads.
Although Himi's mother's racial country is not a large kingdom, its strength is almost the same as that of Rebet, but it was quickly defeated by Rebet during the national war, and Leri also insisted on annihilation as the code of action, and now it seems that everything is planned by the Moon Palace!
"That's right, the Moon Palace's request is for me to use the national war as an excuse to kill those infected with moonfall syndrome instead of them, so that they can protect the peace of the continent without causing any outrageous stains, and only need to pay a few strong men to help us win the war."
"Really...... It's too much! Several officials sighed one after another, and their impression of the Moon Hall instantly fell to the bottom.
But not everyone thinks so, several parties led by the tax officer who are keen to expand the scale of the country said: "Actually, you can't say that it's all about the Moon Palace, they are also thinking about the safety of the mainland, and it is also this opportunity that allows us to be promoted from a small kingdom to a medium-sized kingdom, so that we still earn it." ”
"What's the use of that? Now that we're about to follow in the footsteps of the monkey genus, do you think they'll let us go when those two emperors come? ”
As soon as these words came out, the air in the main hall suddenly froze.
No one cared who said it, because the man was right, the end of Grandron...... It's coming......
And the Rebet Kingdom, which has lost its royal capital, even if the Moon Palace ignores it, it will be easily annexed by the surrounding countries, and there will be no more Ribet on the Moonfall Continent at that time.
Thinking of this, everyone present poured out a sense of despair, and their pupils began to flash with scarlet light......
The second stage of moonfall syndrome, group seizures!
