Chapter 40: Whispers at Night
Valoran's night sky is still as calm as water, and the bright moon is reflected on the rough sea of the Sea of Conquerors, although it is broken again and again by the never-ending waves, but after the waves are churning, it quietly condenses again, which also shows that it has a kind of extraordinary tenacity and perseverance.

At the Yinhai City Wharf by the sea, Lu Fei was sitting on a ship pile that looked a little old with a solemn face at this time. The cold and biting sea breeze blew the ends of his hair without hesitation, making his hairstyle look a little messy at this time. However, he didn't seem to be aware of this, but he just took a few rounded stones in his hand and threw them into the sea, playing the water drift that he used to play with as a child.
After throwing the last stone in his hand, Lu Fei sighed softly and stood up, his face full of complexity.
Thinking of the scene he saw in the daytime, Lu Fei's heart became more and more dazed.
It turned out that after Lu Fei and the others experienced the battle last night, they all followed Wayne into the city.
After entering the city, Lu Fei understood what hell on earth was. I saw that on the originally prosperous Yinhai City Avenue, all lying at this time were dead corpses. The dead bodies were either headless or chopped to pieces with sharp weapons. What made Lu Fei even more angry was that he also saw that there was a group of young women whose clothes were stripped off on the street, looking at the blood stains on their lower bodies and the terrible wounds on their bodies, even the cold-faced beauty Quinn, who was originally disdainful of anything, felt extremely angry.
I only remember that at that time, she was holding the corpse of a child who was obviously only a few months old in her arms, standing on the street looking at the corpses, gritting her teeth and saying fiercely: "I, Quinn, swear here today, all the fishmen, all the sins you have committed against Silversea City today, I will come with the army of Demacia to avenge him one day." Where the light of the Goddess of Dawn does not shine, I, Quinn, will accomplish this mission. When the time comes, the blood of the Fish-People will stain the entire Sea of Conquerors! ”
From Quinn's oath, you can see the mood of everyone at that time, and Lu Fei is even more sad about it.
Because he was only a good relative from Earth, where he had never seen the scene of a man dying in battle, let alone a hellish place on earth. But today, seeing so many dead humans, Lu Fei didn't even know how many times he vomited.
Is the world really so chaotic? An ordinary war between the two races, so many innocent people died, what is all this for? Also, why did the powerful Galen let Planck, the villain who killed countless people of Silversea City, go ahead in the end?
There were too many things that Lu Fei didn't understand, because he really couldn't accept this terrible world.
"Lu... Your Excellency Lu Fei, what's wrong with you, do you have something on your mind? ”
Just as Lu Fei lowered his head and pondered, a female voice that sounded a little nervous and a little cute reached his ears. He couldn't help but be stunned.
I looked back with some expectation, and sure enough, the person standing under the moon with a somewhat messy posture blown by the sea breeze was not the cute and gentle little maid Vivian. In this regard, Lu Fei, who was originally in a bad mood, was much happier.
"Why are you here, it's cold outside!" Looking at Vivian's somewhat thin maid outfit, Lu Fei walked to her side with some distress, took off his coat, and draped it over her.
Vivien, who was a little shy, felt the warmth on her body, and the manly aura on her clothes made her blush. So she tightened the clothes on her body crampedly, lowered her head and said softly: "I saw His Excellency Lu Fei standing here alone in the city gate, looking very worried, so I came to see you."
Hearing Vivian's words full of concern, Lu Fei was a little happy. Because those words were like a clear spring flowing in Lu Fei's heart, gradually smoothing his already very hurt heart.
So he raised his hand and wanted to touch Vivian's silky hair, but he felt that this action might be a little frivolous, so he had to take his hand back and touch his nose by the way: "It's okay, I just feel that this world is too cruel." I experienced a great battle in Shadow Isle, but most of the people who died that time were ugly Shadow Isle creatures, and they didn't feel anything. But this time in the battle of Silver Sea City, there were many innocent humans like us who died. That's why I hate why my strength is so low, so low that even a fishman and an ordinary pirate can't deal with it. If I had the strength of Wayne and them, then I would have saved more lives by arriving in Silversea City with Wayne yesterday. ”
Lu Fei spoke slowly, his tone getting deeper and deeper with the words in his mouth, and in the end, he didn't even know what to say. Thinking back to the corpse lying on the street of Yinhai City, there were already tears in his eyes.
Seeing Lu Fei's painful appearance, Vivian, who was originally very shy, was unusually bold at this time. I saw that she gently touched Lu Fei's cheek with the fingers of her tender white fingers, and gently wiped the tears on Lu Fei's face.
He said softly: "Your Excellency Lu Fei, you don't have to look like this. I know that you are a very kind person, which is why you feel pain and guilt for the civilian deaths in Silversea City. But this is the way this world is, there are too many contradictions between countries and between races. And because the Valoran continent only speaks with strength, war and death can never be avoided. That's something that God can't change! ”
Speaking of this, Vivian looked at Lu Fei's somewhat improved face, lowered her head and pulled her hair, and said in a low voice: "Your Excellency Lu Fei, would you like to hear my story?"
Lu Fei saw Vivian's somewhat unnatural face at this time, and knew that she might also have some painful past. So he shook his head softly and said, "Vivian, I'm fine, I know that maybe what you have to say will bring back painful memories for you, so forget it!"
After hearing Lu Fei's words, Vivien's bright teeth bit her lip lightly, shook her head and said, "Maybe those things have been held back in my heart for too long, so in fact, I also want to find someone to confide in, and I can confide in my heart once."
Hearing this, Lu Fei cleaned up his mood, and at the same time nodded firmly and said, "Don't worry, Vivian, I am your best listener today." Hearing his words, Vivien tightened the coat that Lu Fei had put on her with her hand, and at the same time, her eyes fell into a look of memory.
I only heard her whisper: "Once upon a time, in the east of the Demacian Empire, there was a very beautiful small village~"
