Chapter 282: Flame Codex (Finale)

Previous Chapter

Half a month later, Rosen's body basically recovered.

The burn marks on the skin disappeared completely, and a dense layer of stubble grew on the light of the brain, and the whole person looked refreshed because of half a month's recuperation.

That morning, he got up early in the morning, washed up his breakfast, and got into his carriage and drove towards the city centre of Nilogaard.

Along the way, Lawson lifted a slit in the car window and casually surveyed the scenery on the side of the road.

He saw that the ruins on both sides of the road had been cleared, and the streets were not crowded with pedestrians, but they were by no means deserted, and the ground on both sides of the road was full of all kinds of goods, including vegetables and fruit trees of farmers, daily necessities made by craftsmen, and all kinds of novelty and knick-knacks carved by craftsmen.

The city, which was reborn after the catastrophe, was surrounded by a busy, calm atmosphere, and in a trance, Rosen thought that he was back in the bazaar of the earth.

'That's nice. He sighed in his heart.

The so-called world has a way, Rong Ma was born in the suburbs; If there is no way in the world, there are many heroes and ghosts. This strange world is full of ghosts and strong people, and Rosen's wish is to let these people keep to themselves!

The carriage drove for a while, and Lawson saw a night demon standing in front of an artist's stall, bargaining with the artist, and said something in a hurry, and the night demon bared his teeth and made a threatening gesture. The artist looked frightened, looked up and saw a patrolling guard walking by the street, and immediately became bold again, he pointed to the musketeer, and said a few more words to the night demon, who immediately put away the strange look on his face, took out a few coins from his bosom and handed them over.

Seeing this, Rosen was slightly proud in his heart: "It seems that the prestige of the musketeers has been established." ”

After thinking about it, he felt that it was not so simple: "I'm afraid it's because of me, the flame oracle." But it doesn't matter, as long as you move in the right direction, and after a long time, order will naturally be established. ’

After a while, the carriage drove to its destination, a concrete complex of magicians and craftsmen, and at the main entrance of the complex was a statue of a nearly 10-meter-tall figure, with a blurred face, dressed in scholar's robes, holding a book in his left hand, a pen in his right hand, and a quaint musket pinned to his waist.

The nameplate below the statue reads: 'Knowledge is power.' ’

This is the Thunderbolt Academy that Lawson instructed to build, the statue is the main entrance of the college, but the academy is surrounded by no walls, it is open to the outside world all day, and the only requirement is that during the school day, visitors are not allowed to make noise.

The carriage stopped in front of the statue, and Rosen stepped out of the carriage and walked alone towards the interior of the academy, and as soon as the tourists along the way saw that it was him, they immediately stopped at a distance and bowed. Lawson also smiled and nodded.

He walked around the statue and into the interior of the academy, towards a large hall in the center of the academy.

This hall is called the Hall of Truth, and although it is very early, at least hundreds of people have gathered in the hall, and people are sitting in several circles, each with a thick manuscript in front of them, and they are waving the pen in their hands, and their faces are red.

When Rosen reached the door, the hall immediately fell silent, and everyone stood up and called the oracle.

Rosen smiled, "Everyone, please be seated." ”

As they sat down again, he himself sat down at the top of the hall and asked, "How are the details of the Fire Codex being discussed?" ”

As soon as he said this, at least half of the people in the hall were about to speak, and if it weren't for the presence of Lawson, it was estimated that there would have been another quarrel at this time.

Rosen smiled, pointed to Monica, who was closest to him, and said, "Monica, you represent Dragon Valley, what do you want to say?" ”

Monica had already been fighting with people before, so she immediately stood up and said loudly: "Lord Divine Envoy, I understand your desire for peaceful coexistence on the mainland very much, and I also support it, but the terms you proposed are too harsh. For example, this one, all beings are equal, and anyone who kills another person must pay for it, which is too harsh for our dragon clan. ”

"Oh, what do you say?" Rosenci said.

He did not insist on going his own way in the construction of the "Fire Code", but Nilogaard proposed the first draft, and then invited all the major forces on the mainland to discuss and decide, and finally discussed a decree that everyone recognized.

This is not because Rosen can't enforce the decree, but because if he forcibly implements it, it will naturally take effect for a while, but he is only one person, Nilogaard is just a city, even if he can subdue the continent with a nuclear bomb, but after all, it is impossible to completely control it, and if others are disobedient, Rosen can't do anything.

In this case, it is better to discuss it with everyone, and the effect is better.

Monica immediately explained: "You say that all beings are equal, and this wish is naturally very good. But our dragon clan is born noble, that is, born strong, this is a fact. Even if it is to kill people to pay for their lives, our dragon clan will pay for their lives, and ordinary people will also pay for their lives, so ordinary people can make a lot of money, which is not fair! ”

As soon as she finished speaking, another undead also spoke: "That's it." Our undead can live for thousands of years, ordinary people can live for a hundred years at most, and compensation for thousands of years is a hundred years, which is a great injustice! ”

There were many strangers in the crowd who immediately echoed it, and some people said sadly in the crowd: "Lord God, there are no absolutes in the world, and you have such a powerful power in your hands, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not harm people's lives." Do you have to pay for it? ”

Rosen had expected this situation, and naturally he was not angry.

He smiled, stretched out his hand and patted the manuscript on the table: "All living beings are equal, and killing should be in line with the justice of the clan." Everybody, right? ”

"That's true." Monica nodded, although she didn't want to admit it, but if one dragon in Dragon Valley killed another dragon, then the murderer would be punished very severely, even if he didn't die. The prohibition of cannibalism is an iron law for all Inhumans.

Rosen continued: "Now, what's wrong with me promoting this more? ”

Seeing that someone was about to oppose again, Rosen raised his hand and pressed it, signaling everyone to be quiet, and then said: "Everyone thinks it's unfair, because you are strong, and ordinary people are weak. But you might as well think about it, if one Inhuman can easily kill an ordinary person, if it is 1,000 Inhumans, can it kill 1,000 ordinary legions equipped with Thunder muskets, artillery, and repeating muskets? ”

"Buzz~~~"

The strangers discussed one after another, and the other ordinary representatives present also discussed fiercely, and after about ten minutes, Monica said uncertainly: "This will have to be fought to find out." ”

"No certainty of victory?" Rosen asked.

"I didn't ...... No. Monica shook her head.

Rosen looked at the other Inhuman representatives: "What about you, what do you think?" ”

These alien representatives all shook their heads, not daring to say that their side would win.

"Besides, there are 100,000, million, 10 million ordinary people, and 10,000 aliens? Monica, is there 10,000 people in Dragon Valley? Adams, are there more than 10,000 berserkers in Blackcrow? ”

"Nope."

"Crow's Castle doesn't either."

Another stranger was unwilling: "Even if there are many ordinary people, where are there so many muskets?" ”

Rosen laughed: "There will be, I'll let them have it." ”

“.......”

The representatives of the Inhumans were speechless and speechless.

Rosen looked at the representatives of ordinary people again, these are the city lords of various cities on the mainland, they are all big businessmen and nobles, and he asked, "Do you think that the equality of all beings needs to be discussed again?"

These ordinary people are much easier to talk than strangers, and they all shook their heads and echoed: "This is justice, there is no need to discuss it." ”

"Very well, then this one is the first article of the Fire Codex. Now, let's move on to the second ......."

.........

The uproar in the Hall of Truth of the Raiden Academy lasted for half a year, and after half a year, the final version of the Code of Fire was born, starting from the city of Nilogaard and spreading in all directions.

Perhaps, there are many loopholes in the implementation of this code; Perhaps, there are many nobles in their own territories who disobey this code, one in the open and one in the dark; Or perhaps, the aliens were only forced to obey under the pressure of Rosen, but in any case, the concepts of 'all beings are equal' and 'all men are born free' put forward in the code are becoming more and more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

With the end of the war, new science and new technologies continued to spread from Nilogaard City, and the level of productivity on the mainland was rapidly increasing, and many cities on the mainland gradually saw prosperity that many people could not imagine, and the population and technology began to explode at a terrifying speed.

30 years have passed in the blink of an eye.

At this time, the number of ordinary people on the mainland exceeded 400 million, and the combat effectiveness skyrocketed at a terrifying rate. However, the number of strangers has not increased much because of natural defects. Compared with the two, the Inhuman forces suddenly fell into absolute weakness.

People began to change the law to crowd out the Inhumans, and the Inhumans had to move out of the Fire Code to protect their rights and interests, and the situation was completely reversed.

Early one morning 30 years later.

Rosen woke up on time, but instead of getting up, he lay on his bed, quietly watching the swaying leaves and the hawkers' cries outside the window.

After a while, Annie's lazy voice came from beside her: "What time is it?" ”

Rosen didn't answer, and Lilith's voice came from the other side of him: "It's only five o'clock, let's sleep a little longer." ”

Rosen smiled slightly and said, "Two ladies, did we receive news last night that a strange creature covered in black rattan appeared in the south of the continent, and it seems that many people have died?" ”

Lilith wasn't fully conscious yet, and she muttered, "Seems to be the case." Wasn't that thing cleaned up by the locals, though? ”

Rosen continued: "It's cleaned up. But if I think about it, could this thing be the Tree Demon Donassis we met 30 years ago? ”

Anne nodded, "When you say that, it's really a bit similar." ”

Lilith sobered up a little, and she sighed: "Hmm~ I guess, this must be the ghost of the big lord again." Do you say that he is not tired, he comes to such a play every few years, he is not tired, I am annoyed. ”

Rosen laughed: "It's not entirely bad. He's been playing tricks, and he can keep people awake and not slack off. Anyway, a few days ago, the Dragon King invited me to visit the Dragon Valley, should we go and have fun? ”

Lilith hurriedly waved her hand: "Don't go, don't go, what's so fun about the broken valley, it's just a broken ravine, and the dragon clan is still a treasure." ”

Anne grinned when she heard this: "Actually, most of the dragon clan have already left Dragon Valley and gone to various parts of the continent to make a living. So, to be precise, the old guy of the Dragon King is still using Dragon Valley as a treasure. ”

"Forget it, I'll go for a trip. The Dragon King is old, and he is still working hard to maintain the purity of the dragon blood, and his life is not easy. I'm going to take a trip and I can contribute to the tourism industry in Ryuko. Rosen sighed.

When he said this, Lilith couldn't help but laugh: "The blood is pure...... Didn't the dragon king marry a widow left by a big merchant last year, I remember giving birth to a big fat boy that year. Why didn't he say that his blood was pure at this time? ”

Rosen laughed: "Don't hit someone in the face." ”

Lilith rolled over, hugged Lawson's arm, and yawned again: "Don't talk about these things, I haven't woken up yet, I'll sleep for a while." ”

Lawson yawned infectiously from her: "It's okay, then sleep a little longer." ”

The three of them slept together, and after a while, they fell asleep again.
