Chapter 121: Battle of the Shadows End
Although the war is over, the damage caused by the war has only just begun.
Dead villagers mean families on the verge of being shattered, and polluted farmlands will bring a year of poor harvest. And the houses that are still burning in the night, radiating not light but despair...... All this weighed on the heads of the people of Dover like a catastrophe.
What is especially cruel is that this is a war without profit!
There was no territorial dispute, no treasure, and not even the corpses of the bloodsucking creatures that had been burned to death...... This means that there will be no loot at all. So who should compensate for the losses suffered by Dover?
Rely on Shen Yan?
But Shen Yan only has the ownership of the manor, he is not a local lord - without allegiance, naturally there is no corresponding obligation! What's more, the losses he himself suffered were also very large, as the main building of the manor, which provided houses to protect the villagers, collapsed by a third (half of which was arched by the crab monsters) during the monster attack, which is obvious to all.
And that by the lord?
The collar is mainly rich in his pocket, will he sell his only territory, the Dover Manor?
The villagers who came out of the cellar looked at the ruins around them, their expressions dazed. Gradually, someone began to cry. Then the crying became more and more like a contagion, and finally turned into countless people standing in the courtyard and crying.
*****
Although Shen Yan's transformation ended quickly, the fanatical violence was still entrenched in his heart and lingered.
Especially those cries, which made his mood even more manic! He wanted to tear everything in front of him to pieces, the manor, the weak humans, the crystal walls, and even the planes! The road to the real (abyss) was clogged up layer by layer, and he wanted to destroy everything!
Shen Yan knew that it was the sequelae of transforming into a Legendary Flame Demon - you must know that the Legendary Flame Demon who has reached the Perfect Realm, I am afraid that there are few Bottomless Abyss, and it is normal to experience it once and leave some sequelae - after all, with his current realm, it is still too far to control the Perfect Legend.
The Perfect Fire Demon is not only the unprecedentedly powerful Flame Demon Burning Domain, but also represents the high unity of the chaotic and evil nature of this Fire Demon and the Abyss.
At that moment it was the abyss!
And Shen Yan once became one with the abyss......
At this moment, even if Shen Yan clearly knew what was right and what was wrong, the evil instinct that originated from the bloodline still could not be contained! The bloodline of humans and moon elves is that the two of them are playing soy sauce and watching the excitement on the side, and P is not used properly in the battle between good and evil...... Shen Yan sighed deeply, sure enough, all my mistakes and funny personality in the past were all mistakes made by my bloodline, and they had nothing to do with me.
Fortunately, these villagers are still very simple, even if they are sad, they are just watching from a distance, and no one has made such an act of rushing over and hugging their thighs. Otherwise, Shen Yan was really not sure if he could bear it and tear the person who stopped in front of him to pieces.
"Futi, I'll leave it to you...... Try to arrange everyone well, and don't be afraid to spend money. Shen Yan commanded in a dumb voice, he turned his head, and in an instant, his eyes caught the figure who wanted to dodge. Nikita, you bring someone to help too! ”
No refusal.
Nikita, who was called by name and looked like a thin male elf, froze for a moment, and turned around helplessly to salute.
"Yes...... Teacher. ”
"That's all." Shen Yan turned around and walked towards the main building, and the crowd in front of him quickly separated.
Shen Yan lowered his head, his hands were clenched, and the green tendons on his arms were bursting up, and anyone could see that Shen Yan's current state was not right.
Considering the unbelievable scene before, I felt that it seemed that this was normal - if Shen Yan could really do everything lightly, would the country still have the meaning of existence in front of him? The so-called mighty Nilfgaard Empire will probably be wiped out in the flick of his fingers.
*****
Shen Yan thought that he could finally go back to the bedroom to sleep, but as for whether he could get the side effects, he could only wake up, he was now mentally exhausted like a mountain. Just as he was about to enter the door, another pair of feet stood in front of him and blocked the door.
"Why don't you think I'm going to be angry? You're killing yourself! ”
Then he looked up, and saw a perfect face. Vivien Tablis hung in front of her with her hands crossed, blocking his way, and even took the initiative to take a step forward after he stopped, shortening the distance to zero, leaning herself against Shen Yan's chest.
"I can help you." She looked into Shen Yan's eyes and said, Shen Yan read deep concern in her pure eyes, and wanted to avoid it for a moment.
"Don't you want to escape, Shen Yan, I've seen you in this state, you need me now...... Patience will accumulate more and more, and what you need now is to vent...... Hold me up, I can do it! Don't worry about anything else, I'm your man from the moment you help me lift the curse. ”
After listening to what Vivien said, Shen Yan had to be flustered for a while, and then she understood what she meant.
Speaking of which, his current state is indeed somewhat similar to the aftermath of the war - before the hot weapons dominated the war, the impact of the war on the soldiers was more serious. The blood, severed limbs, intestines, and lives lost on the battlefield are unimaginable in their impact on the human psyche.
Some soldiers who have killed the "head killing" can easily fall into a bloodthirsty mood, even after the battle is still very violent. Therefore, such as setting up a battalion female branch in the barracks, or the general turning a blind eye to the soldiers' looting behavior after the war, etc., are actually simple but effective ways to regulate the psychology of soldiers......
Vivien was beautiful and pure, standing within Shen Yan's reach.
Shen Yan looked at the girl who stopped him, if he obeyed the emotions in his heart, he really wanted to just carry Vivien upstairs, ravage her, and take everything from her. He believes that although it may not play a decisive role, it is certainly better than sleeping, and it can also effectively calm the violence in his heart...... Shen Yan sighed, but unfortunately, he couldn't do it.
"I'm sorry ......"
However, before he could say anything to say no to Vivien, a female voice suddenly interjected behind him.
"Wait! If that's the kind of thing," Nikita said as she leaped out of the shadows in the corner, her eyes dodging Shen Yan's gaze. "My, I mean to say...... If even she can, then why can't it be me? ”
Shen Yan was shocked! Nikita, you're making a fuss! You're my student!
Although he didn't say anything, his eyes were already very clear. As a result, Nikita had a stiff neck and just didn't look at him. "When I met you, she didn't know where she was! Why can't she do it? Besides, I've already graduated! ”
Shen Yan was so angry that he wanted to scold, what are young people thinking about now? I'm your elder, do you want Omar and the tiger to laugh at me?
"You go and give me ......"
This time, before he could say a strong order for Nikita not to get involved, another female voice interjected.
"You're all useless! In fact...... It would be better if it was with me. A woman draped in sackcloth climbed out of the pool in the courtyard and said.
Looking at Vivien and Nikita's hostile eyes, the fairy in the lake explained helplessly. "He's in a dangerous situation, it's not just emotional, he's sliding into the abyss...... If no one holds him, you'll all lose him. "Don't look at me like that, it's my job to correct the knight's behavior!
Like a knight king, a white-haired hunter or something, he always throws things into the lake when he is depressed, and I am also worried. Is it easy for you to keep your sword from rust in the lake?
"No way!" Vivien shook her head.
"Absolutely forbidden!" Nikita also crossed her hands and stood on a united front with the bird.
As a result, Vivien turned her head and pointed the finger at her, "You're a man, even worse!" ”
"You can't judge the gender based on the murder department, that's not accurate enough!" The fairy in the lake said solemnly, but her heart was secretly refreshing...... Ah, that's a great way to reason! Although the fairy of the lake is not known for her murderous parts, she can clearly outperform Nikita and Vivien.
The two of them stood together, and that was the four A's.
"Hmph, it's superficial." Nikita confidently lifted the film from her face and removed a film, revealing her peerless face. From the time she was in the Green Horn, Nikita knew that if she only compared her face, she probably wouldn't be able to find an opponent even if she was placed in the multiverse! Yes, it's that beautiful!
Now that she has grown up, not only is she not disabled, but she is more peerless and beautiful than when she was a child!
The power of the gods is relative, while the beauty of Nikita is absolute (cf. the Shri Sutra).
So the form is reversed!
The moment they saw Nikita's face, the lake fairy and Vivien had the feeling of "losing this time" at the same time.
Wait, the fairy in the lake suddenly woke up, why should I follow and rob it? I obviously just want to use my own light and order to help him balance his out-of-control talent, why can't I help but reach out when I see everyone grabbing it?
Shen Yan looked at the sky, and suddenly felt that his heart was not so violent...... The rest is speechless! Why can three women who have never known each other be able to tear up when they meet for the first time? Is this a racial gift?
……
"Ah, Shen Yan, long time no see." At this time, a new female voice interjected, and Shen Yan was not surprised by the accident, he turned his head casually.
Then I saw Ciri leading the horse, smiling and standing at the door of the courtyard.
"Congratulations, you're still so popular."
