By the time Don and Elsa returned to Gunther's side, Gunther had basically recovered his strength and his injuries were almost healed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The stronger the Apocalypse, the weaker the effect of the Goddess's Blood, but what Don prepared for Elsa and her henchmen was all highly concentrated, so the effect was still very good.

"Your Majesty."

Gunther knelt down on one knee in front of Don and said with a look of shame: "My subordinates failed to kill Stanley, please punish him." ”

Tang En waved his hand: "It's not in the way, I also ran into him just now, his strength is a little strange, you describe the situation when you fought him just now." ”

"Yes."

So Gunther retold everything that happened in the field to Don again, without cutting a word, and after listening to Gunther's description, Don frowned: "In other words, Stanley made a deal with the demon?" Got the special powers of Komala Bloodthirsty? ”

"Yes, he exposed this personally, but his power is obviously incomplete, so he can't kill me directly, you need to hurt me first to get my blood."

Gunther smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't expect him to have this kind of method, and he was almost killed by him if he didn't notice it for a while." ”

"I see, you can rest first."

Donn told Gunther to rest, and he stood still.

Stanley actually made a deal with a demon just to gain power? Or is there some deeper reason behind this? Could it be that this is a demonic temptation of the surface world? They want to get back to the earth?

Don pondered for a moment, then his gaze fell on the most conspicuous castle in Bloodrock City.

It seems that it is necessary to go there and investigate.

Elsa couldn't bear to see those people die meaninglessly like this, and whispered: "Your Majesty, Stanley's life and death are unknown now, this war can be over, right?" ”

"yes......"

Don looked at the battlefield and muttered, "These people are so worthless to die......"

It's not that Donn is ruthless, it's his mission that forces him to measure these lives by value, and now these Graces are dying here, not contributing a little to Purandah, obviously worthless death and consumption.

Even if these people are treated as slaves, sent to the mines to be forced laborers, or transferred. Teaching a worker on an assembly line, or even a farmer, is much more meaningful than dying on this battlefield like this.

But now, all these strong laborers who should have come in handy have all died here.

It's a waste, it's a waste.

In fact, this "war" has been fought until now, and there is no difference between stopping and not stopping.

The powerful lethality of the magic weapon has completely crushed the 500,000 army gathered by Stanley, and now the remaining number is probably less than one in ten, and these people have obviously collapsed by such a cheap death, and the soldiers who have no fighting spirit are fleeing frantically, and what sacrifices for His Majesty Stanley, and everything they give for the future of Grace have become insignificant under the threat of their lives.

Under Donn's order, the earth-shattering artillery fire gradually subsided, and the soldiers of the Illuth Empire formed a group with tanks as the core, and began to slowly advance towards Bloodrock City, and after advancing for a long time, they came to the center of the battlefield filled with gunpowder.

Looking at the stumps and fragments all over the ground, the brains of the excited Illus soldiers gradually cooled down, and they couldn't help but tremble. Trembling.

These are all lives that have died under their control, and they don't even see the faces of these people clearly, they just move their fingers......

Kill. Killing has never been easier.

It is precisely because of this that they feel extremely frightened - if this weapon falls into the hands of others, will the person who dies here be themselves?

War, why should there be war?

Soldiers, especially recruits with little combat experience, suddenly began to hate war like never before.

War is the root of all evil, there is no such thing as one wins or loses, and both sides of the war are losers.

On the battlefield, a soldier resisted the urge to vomit and muttered, "This war should not have been fought in the ......"

A veteran said angrily: "Don't be stupid, as early as when Solant returned to the Illuth Empire, this battle with Grace was already doomed. ”

"But it's cruel......"

"Cruel? When the Graces slaughtered the Duchy of Silas, were they cruel or not? ”

"But the people who slaughtered the Duchy of Silas are not necessarily these people, they are innocent, maybe some of them are moderates who don't want war, and the real cruel ones are the radical Graces......"

"No one is innocent in war, and these so-called moderates, while enjoying the fame, wealth and status that the radicals bring them, are already the same kind of people, and they are not against the war, they are acquiescing in it, and they are also sinners."

The veteran paused for a moment, pointed to a staring corpse on the ground and said, "He may have a wife and children, as you said, he may be just a moderate who wants to live in peace, but now, he has fallen on the battlefield, what do you think is because of this?" ”

"Because of what?"

"Although the main reason is Stanley, but is there no reason for this?"

The veteran asked the recruit, "Everyone in Grace knows that they are enjoying everything that the Grace soldiers have burned and looted outside, but they just silently accept it all and take it for granted, and no one stands up to question whether the soldiers are doing something wrong, no one stands up to denounce this behavior, and no one speaks up for the innocent people who died." ”

"They turned a blind eye when the Silas protested against the brutality of the Graces."

"This tacit attitude is the greatest sin, when they don't care about their lives and thoughts, why should others care about their thoughts?"

"When Grace was surrounded by war and asked them to stand up by Stanley, whom they admired, they might not be willing to stand up, but in the end they had no choice but to stand up, and this was the price they had to pay...... Although this price came a little later, at least the innocent souls of Silas and Ivalan could rest in peace. ”

The recruit was silent, and now he felt terrible.

The veteran patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Look at it, so this is war...... Someone will die, either the enemy will die or we will die, and only the victorious will be entitled to live. ”

The recruits couldn't help but question, "But why is there a war?" Why can't we just sit together and share the world together? ”

The veteran smiled: "You haven't read a book, have you?" Once humans, they were a unified nation, all humans were one family, and the only empire was the Illuth Empire. ”

The recruit was stunned, he really didn't know about it.

"And the three kingdoms of Sorant, Ronitant, and Grace, as well as those principalities, were all split off after the Second Chaos Invasion War and the Illuth Empire fell into weakness."

The veteran said sarcastically: "So strictly speaking, these countries are all traitors to the Illus Empire, and they are now paying for the ambitions of their ancestors." ”

"Traitor...... ......"

"Yes. What's more, isn't His Majesty Don working hard to achieve this goal right now? Sorant has returned, although Ronitant has not changed much, but with its military strength, it is impossible to resist the general trend, and sooner or later these countries will return and become a whole country. ”

The veteran said crisply: "You should be glad that now we have His Majesty Donn, so we are here to recover the kingdom of Grace, instead of waiting for Grace to come to the door and turn Arinks into a dead city." ”

"I see......"

"That's it, it is the greatest honor of your life to fight with His Majesty Donn, and you should keep that in mind."

The veteran pointed to the heavy armored tank beside him: "Did you see it?" What else can give you as much security on the battlefield as it does? But it was created by His Majesty Donn! ”

"His Majesty Don has given us the blood of the goddess and powerful weapons and equipment, and he wants us to become strong and invincible, but he has never been a belligerent careerist, never!"

The veteran said categorically: "If His Majesty Don wanted to conquer this world by force, he could have done it a long time ago, but he didn't do it, he just made our lives better step by step, making the Ilrus Empire stronger, and attracting those people to take the initiative to return to the Ilrus Empire." ”

"Now, even the once rich Ronitantes always have envy on their faces when they mention our Ilrus, how could such a thing happen before? And isn't the reason why we are proud to be the people of Ilrus is that His Majesty Don brought it? Have you ever seen a more merciful and great Majesty than him? ”

"No ......"

"So, believe in His Majesty Don, he will never attack the Kingdom of Grace for no reason, this war shows that the mistakes made by this country are no longer forgiven casually, and they must pay the price of their lives."

After the veteran finished speaking, he patted the recruit on the shoulder and continued to patrol the battlefield.

The recruit silently pondered the truth in the veteran's words in his heart, and the chaotic and complicated thoughts slowly became clear, and the tangled and heavy thoughts were finally cleared, and then looked at the corpses on the battlefield, he was finally able to face it calmly.

The sin of killing? If this killing can make this world a better place, then let's take this sin on our shoulders.
