Moment.

"Vladimir, and ......"

Nicholas looked at Wei in some surprise. Wei, who took off his mask, looked gentle. Nicholas keenly felt that he was a little different from the past......

There is less anger and more perseverance.

"It seems that you have been missing for the past two days," praised Speaker Nicholas, "what a gain." ”

"Something happened." Wei said calmly.

Speaker Nicholas was tempted to ask Wei what had happened, but he didn't say much in the end. If Wei regained his memory, he would tell himself. Besides, maybe he plans to share his joy with Lijie first?

The events he remembered were at most life experiences in his hometown.

"Your Excellency......," Mr. Kim worried, "my troops are ready. As soon as you give the order, the army will go out immediately. ”

"Very well," Nicholas smiled at his falcon-like countenance, "just show the foolish Imperials our power." ”

Mr. Kim's lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but finally turned into a sigh.

"Yes." He bowed his head respectfully.

It will be the battle of the Empire for the annihilation.

"Sir......" Wei couldn't help but interject.

"Lone knows what you two are thinking," Nicholas said indifferently, since the end of the battle of pure white, the two of his most confidants have been a little perfunctory, "You are dissatisfied with Lone. You think it's enough to occupy the French state alone, and when it's time to accept it, right? You, like the laity, feel that the ambition of loneliness is too ......."

"My subordinates didn't do that!" The two of them connected. Mr. Kim's forehead was already sweating slightly.

Nicholas stared at him for a moment.

"That's it," he shook his head, "and it's not your fault. Vladimir, you have always been my most important subordinate, a little slippery, but also loyal, and unrebellious in the most dangerous moments. And the distant river...... If I had a case, it would be that you would inherit my will and continue to lead Okad forward. ”

Mr. Jin and Wei Moran.

Nicholas did not tell the two of them the secret, and the two knew it. And what spellcaster would tell someone about his important hole cards? Even the closest friends and disciples are not free to share knowledge with top casters.

"Although Lone is arrogant, he does not mean to monopolize secrets. Especially you, Vladimir, for so many years, you have carried out my orders, but ask me what I think...... I am alone and ashamed of you. ”

For a moment, Mr. Wei and Mr. Kim saw a gentle expression on Speaker Nicholas's face that he had never shown before. But in the next second, his expression became serious and majestic again.

"I've always wanted to find a moment. Since you go on like this, you may have some prejudices against Lone...... All right. I'll tell you what you want to know. ”

Mr. Kim was shocked.

"You don't have to ......"

"Lonely," Nicholas said flatly, "Lone's next move will also require your strength. ”

Wei was silent. He didn't know if what Nicholas was going to say included what he wanted to ask...... However, this may be an opportunity.

Cave Sydney Gulas Deeper Secrets.

"Vladimir......" Nicholas said leisurely, "you're also a legendary arcane spellcaster. Honestly, I didn't expect you to get to where you are today. ”

"It's all up to you." Mr. Kim said.

"You can get to this without me," said Nicholas, "then Vladimir, Far River...... As you know, one-third of the continent was raised to the sea of clouds, and it was the creatures called the 'sea of clouds' that held up the continent. Vladimir, can you tell us what you think was the truth back then? Far River may need our tips. ”

Mr. Jin glanced cautiously at Wei next to him. Strictly speaking, Wei is also a person related to the Church, and may not be able to accept the claims of arcane spellcasters......

"Say it," Wei laughed, "The story of the only 'god in the clouds' expelling the false gods and then lifting the continent to the clouds to protect the people, maybe there are many people in the church who take it seriously, but I ...... Not that kind of person. ”

Mr. Kim nodded.

"In my humble opinion, there is no such thing as a 'god in the clouds,' just a beautiful vision of people," Mr. Kim said, "and it was the gods who passed away that raised the continent from the sea." ”

"Go on." Nicholas bowed slightly.

Mr. Jin's understanding of the truth of the year is quite mainstream among legendary mages.

Generations of legendary mages have generally agreed that this is the closest answer to the truth.

"Two thousand years ago, the gods foresaw a catastrophe in the world. We don't know what that catastrophe is...... Mr. Kim said, "it could be an intruder from the astral realm." So all the gods, whether orderly or chaotic, good or evil, decided to face the mysterious catastrophe. The good gods have created a sea of clouds for us to use as a shelter for civilization to continue to thrive. ”

Mr. Kim paused: "We all know the results. The gods are gone, and the great calamity is not there. Perhaps the account of the flood was actually the aftermath of their battle. ”

"Do you think that the gods of the past have perished with unknown enemies?" Nicholas asked rhetorically.

"You may think that this heroic theatrical story is unrealistic," Mr. King replied, "but it does seem that the hypothesis does hold for now." At least, it's more credible than the church's claim that 'there is only God in the clouds'. ”

"But it is strange that all the gods have perished with their enemies," said Nicholas, "and that no gods have rebelled against the enemy?" Even the gods who surrendered to the enemy have been destroyed, and among the gods, there are always a few gods who are good at saving their lives and can survive. Even if there really isn't one...... Why can't we become gods in the age of the sea of clouds? Why is our world locked down? Where does the curse of aging come from? ”

"That was the last struggle of the enemy," Mr. King, "to the gods who prevented their revenge." ”

The corners of Wei's mouth curled slightly. This story of the "Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon" or "Burning Legion", he felt pretty good when he heard it.

This world is a planet, and there is a larger universe outside - even if it is not a universe where planets revolve around stars, there is also a huge star realm, and other civilizations living in the star realm, these Wei have long known this.

"If so," muttered Nicholas, "it would be good. ”

"What?"

"People always love stories like this. turn to the one, all-powerful God; Or think that a god-like hero or a hero-like god saved the world. However, the reality is much crueler than people's beautiful fantasies. ”

"Don't you ......," Mr. Kim suddenly understood.

"I know everything back then," said Speaker Nicholas, "and come with me." What you will face next is a secret that only me and Palamedes know. ”

"Lord of Darkness......?" Wei was taken aback by the sudden appearance of the name.

"I don't know if Palamedes told his 'apostle' the secret," Nicholas sneered, "and he is the first in the clouds when it comes to hiding his plans from no one." It's a pity that it was his temper that hurt him, so that he doesn't even have the strength to stop me now......"

"What you will see next is the truth of 2,000 years ago."

------------

A little earlier.

The top of the city of Palamedes.

Deep Black Dome.

"What I'm telling you now is the truth of 2,000 years ago." Mr. Palamedes said to the maiden.
