Chapter 167: History
For the king's dishonesty, for the king's loss of the people, for the loss of morality, I am the last descendant of Lan, Roland. In the name of Arashi, exempt Fimr. The King's Seat of Cassel! ”
The lion of the Ancestor made a gesture, and with the help of the innate ability of this ancient ice nightmare who was proficient in sonic powers, my roar was able to reach every corner of the city.
The flesh-and-blood king lay on the ground, and I, in a fit of rage, were announcing my decision to the world from the high platform of the palace.
The parchment that had been prepared for a long time was unfurled, and the little-known crimes were revealed, and magical magic tricks made these bloody words float in the air, and they were very eye-catching!
"One of his sins, cold-blooded and ruthless, vicious and murderous"
"His fourteenth sin is extravagance, wasting money, sitting and watching the residents starve to death, but enjoying the brocade clothes and delicacies!" "Its crime is fifteen, colluding with different races, raising tigers for trouble, and luring wolves into the house"
And one horrific crime after another caused all the houses to open their windows and listen to the radio from the palace.
The more I read it, the more angry I became, looking at the dozens behind it, I didn't want to miss it anymore, so I simply tore it up and started to complain directly from the bottom of my heart.
"We'll take care of all this mess, and the most important thing is that I'm just unhappy with your soft egg! So, I want you to get out of the way in the position of Arashi no King! ”
"More than 1,700 years ago, the Northland was a rotten place, the weather was cold, the earth was frozen, and there were many demonic beasts, and now there are some bad conditions, but at that time, this was also a famous place of exile, and if the exiled sinners of various countries were thrown here, they would die in less than three or five years. And if it's not dead. It's even more troublesome. They don't have the ability to live. Most of them are thugs who are wandering and robbing. ”
"Natural disasters, man-made disasters, and beast disasters are all coming together, and even if the northern land at that time is not a hell on earth, it is not much worse!"
With Roland's description, compared with the current scene, the Lan people vaguely guessed something. At that time, the former king of the Northlands, Revenday, who had suffered so much, was determined to establish his own country in this barren land after accidentally obtaining the power of the Ice Pact. He never said that he was so great as guarding the border for the entire human society, he was just fed up with this precarious life, and he hoped to create a home of his own for himself and his people, a new home that would not be humiliated and oppressed by foreign people. ”
As the morning sun rose, the roar resounded throughout the city, and after a brief period of astonishment among the citizens, the name and thick voice of Prince Roland made passers-by stop and listen patiently.
At the beginning, everyone laughed at his incompetence and thought he was talking about a dream. After all, at that time, the last holy war had just ended. The hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, the orcs are still strong, and the establishment of a country here is equivalent to the establishment of a fortress on the front line of the orcs and human battlefields, and it will inevitably suffer from the crazy backlash of the orcs, and he is a poor boy, and he even has to find a way to solve his own food and drink, where to find resources and food to achieve self-sufficiency. ”
"But there is no absolute impossibility in the world, and Rivendell has made the impossible possible and built his home in this frozen soil."
"No worthless specialties and riches? He believed that there was no end to the heavens, so he found his dwarven friends, organized an engineering team of the natives, and dug inch by inch, spade by spade, and finally found his own specialty - magic minerals in this barren land. ”
"Don't have a strong city defense to deal with external threats? On the border, he and his followers dug ravines and sentry posts with their hands, replaced the rangers who patrolled the border with their feet, and built the walls of their own people with flesh and blood! ”
The young people who were just about to start work, the women who were preparing the rations for the family, and the elderly people who were walking involuntarily stopped when they heard about the past of the former king, which was not recorded in the history books.
"Praise the kings! It is you who have created a home for us and allowed us to live with dignity. ”
"'We admit that our lives are miserable, we have nothing in our pockets, and I can't guarantee that there will be any changes after following my struggle, but what I do is that if you don't do anything that you can't necessarily do, you can't change anything, and you may not change anything if you do. But if I must starve and freeze to death in hunger and cold, I at least hope that I have done my last part,' said the king. In the face of harsh nature, there is no so-called miracle from heaven, there is no inexplicable expectation, and all you can rely on is yourself and your partner, which is the so-called will of Arashi. And the first king and those Northland people who chose to follow him became the earliest Lan people. ”
"Unlike the old lineage peoples, most of us are even half-breeds. But what distinguishes whether the Lan clan is or not, it is never the blood and skin color, as long as the northland people who have the will of the Lan clan are the Lan people! This is the original words of the previous king, and it is also the truth that our descendants of Lan have always believed! ”
"One thousand four hundred and twenty-three years ago, it was the first time that the country of Arashi was close to annihilation, the nightmarish demon army opened the door to the lower plane, countless demons and demons rushed out of the gate, overnight, the country of Lan was connected to seventeen cities, the capital Difender was in a hurry, when the Lan people did not despair, they paid countless sacrifices in order to protect their homeland, and they swept the demons back to their hometown."
And the traces left at that time are still there, which is the demonic abyss of Anweima. No, the most important trace and legacy left behind is still the battle flag raised in the wind, at that time, the will of Lan and the battle flag of Lan were dyed with blood for the first time, and we embarked on a completely different development path from the north of the Central Plains, no humor and old-fashioned boring have become our most obvious national characteristics, and the unyielding will and temperament have become our proud medals. ”
The citizens silently looked at the battle flag of Lan everywhere, and vaguely had a new understanding, perhaps, it is not only the bloodline that has been inherited, but also deeper secrets waiting to be discovered. "One thousand one hundred and twenty-nine years ago, it was a melee involving countless races, and the orcs who did not dare to fall silent invaded the Northlands, and it was also a cruel winter of war that no one expected to happen, but that war lasted for twelve years. The Lan people died 1,370,000 in battle. The number of injured is innumerable. Ten rooms and nine emptiness, and as the master of the protection of the land, the royal family of Arashi killed four kings and seven members of the royal family in battle. The youngest of them was only five years old, and he succeeded to the throne only twelve days after his death. Since then, it has become our tradition to have the prince as a general, and every young child is trained in swordsmanship and horsemanship, because no one knows if he will be useful one day. And once he is on the battlefield, regardless of gender or age, he has only two choices - either return victoriously or die a glorious death! ”
"And another new tradition is that in times of war, the king dies on top of the prince, the prince dies on the top of the princess, and the princess dies on the top of the queen. The royal family is immortal, and the resistance is not endless. From the beginning, on the battlefield. We, the Arashi bloodline, will simply be captured, because our enemies know that captivity is meaningless. After all, there are already too many seniors who have surfaced their choice and surrendered? Captured? Those of us juniors who lost this person, it would be good to find a pillar and kill him. “
"Seven hundred years ago, that sudden war was a dagger from behind, and the sudden rise of the alien slave trade represented endless blood, but also endless wealth. And our Lan country, but blocked the golden road to wealth, so, a large number of sophisticated weapons actually shipped to the hands of the orcs, after the cruel orc war, but we disregarded the land full of sorrow, directly declared war on the countries behind the scenes. ”
"The result? Hmph, how can those weak southerners be our iron horsemen who have experienced countless battles, and when our knights drag those stupid corpses with crowns through the streets of various cities, no country dares to underestimate our Lan people. Of course, since then, our relations with the nations of mankind have not been good, and we have never regretted it! ”
"It is certainly not surprising that our troubled country has been sacked and wared again and again, but before we know it, we have become an 'ancient country' with a long history. Our untended wildflowers survived the cold winds of the Northland, while the little saplings that had been carefully cared for in the greenhouses of the South died inexplicably. "More than three hundred years ago, I experienced it firsthand, fierce and warlike orcs, cunning and powerful demons, and always treacherous human allies, all of whom our ancestors faced. That time, it was all my fault, we didn't resist it, and we destroyed the country because of it."
There was a slight whimper in his deep voice, and the silent pain and self-blame were heart-wrenching, but the Lan people in the city would repeat the same answer, and they had different opinions.
"No, our prince, you have done a good job, we are proud of you, please do not blame yourself. Moreover, we did not perish! As long as the people of Lan are still there, how can Lan Guo not be able to recover. ”
"Yes, we did not perish! Arashi's will never perish! But even though the Lan Kingdom has perished, we Lan people have not perished! You know? When I learned that there was another Lan country composed of the Lan people in the Northland, I was so happy that I couldn't sleep all night. Even though he is no longer the kingdom I know, and has split into several pieces, as long as he is still standing in the north, I am very satisfied. ”
"Countless times, I think of my homeland, sleepless day and night, but as soon as I think of the hatred of destroying the country, I make a vow that if I don't take revenge and make the murderer behind the scenes pay ten times the price, I will never let myself be immersed in a comfortable life, and when I finally take revenge, I have no courage to return to my homeland. The people I know are dead, and the owners of the land over there are unrecognizable.
"Dear Royal Highness Prince, please don't hesitate to linger, this will always be your home, we are all family, and you are welcome to return at any time!"
I laughed, how could I not laugh happily in the face of such lovely people, but as soon as I saw the clay version of the man in front of me, I turned from joy to anger, and I couldn't get angry.
"But you, Fimmel. Cassel, who obviously has the blood of Arashi's will in his veins, did such a ridiculous thing. ”
I used to expect that this was just an imposter who had nothing to do with the Arashi royal family, but after face-to-face contact, I was surprised to find that he was really the blood of the Arashi royal family, and the descendants of Arashi actually fell to such a point?
"You, arrogant and lustful, shameless! It's a good thing that Sluffer knows how to be flexible, we have had enough of not knowing how to be flexible, but flexibility doesn't mean being corrupt and degenerate, contaminated with the most criminal slave trade, sending your people to the orcs to spoil, and you are still worthy of calling yourself the king who protects the people? You are not worthy to be king! ”
"You, ungrateful, greedy and selfish! We have humiliated our homeland while you hide in the palace and enjoy the good food and the beautiful people. The warning I gave you was treated as waste paper by you, and countless people who should have survived died at your behalf, but you happily enjoyed the dedication of your people, and you still have the face to say that you are a king above the lords who is responsible for guarding the land? You are not worthy to be king! ”
"Thou, cowardly and despicable, disregard glory! The will of the ancestors has never been extinguished, and the heroic spirits of the ancestors have always watched us. And if they had spirits under them, and the heroic spirits would have been able to descend to earth, they would have strangled you bastard a long time ago! How dare you surrender? The Arashi royal family has a history of 1,700 years, and there are countless kings who have died on the battlefield, and no coward will surrender! You"
"You are not worthy of being king!"
"I, Roland. Lan, in the name of the fifty-sixth king of the Lan Kingdom, deprived the descendants of the sin king Fimur. Cassel's throne! ”
"I, the Ancients, have returned to the Dead. Arroin, the partner of the previous king and the original member of the royal family, witnessed the abdication of the old king and elected Roland. Arashi temporarily takes over the duties of the king of Arashi here! I am the supervisor myself. ”
The citizens and royal guards were stunned for a moment, and then, they didn't know who shouted first, "Long live Roland!" All the qiē was boiling for it.
"Your Highness Roland, no, Your Majesty Roland, welcome back!"
"Your Highness Roland, shake it gently, we welcome you at any time."
Soon, driven by well-intentioned people, the cheers resounded in the sky, and to be able to win the support of the people so lightly, in a sense, thanks to Fimmel's nonsense.
And in the crowd, a young couple is complaining about each other.
"Why do you have to force me to shout, my voice Roland is familiar, he will definitely hear it, and he will definitely make fun of me when the time comes."
"You've cheated him so many times, just let him laugh at you. By the way, what about the injury to the right arm? ”
"It's okay, that orc shaman is more seriously injured than me, and the other guys are all responding to the story, and they are not injured at all,"
And when all of this qiē was announced to the public, when the overall situation was decided, I also mercilessly threw away Fiemer, who only had half a breath left.
"Ahh
Fimmel's shrill screams reverberated in the air, and if he fell to the ground, he would never have lived, and some women and children had closed their eyes, and could not bear to see this tragic scene of turning into flesh, but I was firmly locked on to Fimmel, and I did not let go at all.
"Whoa!"
Sure enough, when Fimur was about to fall to his death, suddenly two bat wings stretched out of his back, and with a sharp fan, he turned into a glide and flew out of the city.
"Damn! It's really a demon! ”
The expected speculation was confirmed, but it was not good news at all, the descendants of Lan were matched with the blood of demons, no matter how you thought about it, there was only one possibility.
"Cavins, did you do this? Is this all your game? (To be continued......)
