Volume 1 List of Brave Men Who First Set on the Shield of the Otherworld Chapter 42 The Truth About the Four Holy Beasts!
A few days later.
Garden courtyard, pavilions, ponds, pavilions, rockeries, flower beds, bonsai, vines and bamboos.
In the depths of the sea of colorful flowers, a minaret-shaped pavilion is carved entirely of white jade, shining brightly.
In the pavilion, Merti was gently squeezing Zao Wou-Ki's shoulder, and the queen seemed to say something to her, and her attitude became wonderful.
Zao Wou-Ki said, "Why didn't you deal with that bunch of kingdom trivialities today. ”
The queen said: "The previous few days had a lot of work, because the king had piled up months of government affairs, and he didn't have that much work on his usual days. ”
After a moment's hesitation, the queen said, "You killed all the main members of the three noble families, and each family found a young man who was bullied in the family to be the head of the family. The effect was very good, and everyone changed the direction of the wind, lest their own family also end up like this, so they went to the royal capital to meet me in person, and expressed their willingness to go to the soup for Merlomag. ”
"However, those noble lords just listen to what they say, and they can't be taken to heart." The queen said this, but she couldn't help but smile easily.
Zao Wou-Ki asked, "How long is it until there is enough gunpowder for the amount I need?" ”
"A lot of manpower, material and financial resources have already been invested, and it will take a few days."
"Okay." Zao Wou-Ki suddenly thought of one thing: "Why haven't the assassins from those countries come after so many days?" I didn't cover up the fact that I killed the Three Braves, they also have a way to inquire about the news, don't they care about the destruction of the world? ”
"Because something more important has happened," said the Queen, "and to tell the truth, it is more critical than you." ”
"You're a time-bomb, and there's a bomb that's exploded."
"They obviously think that you can't do much harm, and about the grievances between the Three Braves and you, those kings already know that after you take revenge, you will not think of destroying the world. They think they can kill you whenever they want. ”
"And the other thing is that it is destroying all countries at the same time."
Zao Wou-Ki looked at the queen, waiting for her explanation.
"According to ancient rumors, there are four holy beasts in the world, they are part of the will of the world, when the tide becomes irresistible and the world is on the verge of destruction, the four holy beasts begin to recover, and the holy beasts can open an enchantment to completely separate the waves!"
"Wait, what do you say? And this way can easily solve the wave? So what do you call the brave for? ”
The queen said helplessly, "This is the biggest problem, because if you want to open the barrier, you have to sacrifice a lot of lives. ”
"And now, the spirit tortoise, one of the four holy beasts, has awakened, and a strange creature has appeared in large numbers all over the world, and it has been attacking humans and various other creatures."
Zao Wou-Ki suddenly thought of what Fitoria, the Queen of Philo Birds, had said in a heavy tone: Saving the world and saving the people are two different things, and this is the choice that the brave have to make.
"So, even though those countries know that this is saving the world, they may be slaughtering their own countries, so they won't watch that happen. Deal with the Spirit Tortoise first, then kill me and summon the Brave again. Right? ”
The queen nodded with difficulty: "Yes, at present, many countries have gathered their forces and are advancing towards the spirit turtle, wanting to destroy the spirit turtle. ”
There was a long silence.
The queen didn't like the vibe, especially when she was with Zao Wou-Ki.
She abruptly changed the subject and said: "I want to reform Merlomag, but there are always nobles who think that I have moved his interests, and with the obstruction of the papal faction, there is little progress to be seen. ”
"But no one dares to disagree with my orders now, at least on the surface."
Merlomag believed that man was supreme and that the subhuman race should be a slave. I don't think that's right, I want to change this situation, I want to make peace between subhumans and humans......"
The queen said as if she had found an outlet, gushing endlessly, not vomiting or unhappy.
There was a hint of sacredness on her face as she said this, and she couldn't help but smile as she fantasized about the ideal world of dreams.
She was fully engaged.
Zao Wou-Ki was thinking about something, but he couldn't help but be attracted by the queen who exuded a unique charm and listened carefully.
Some people say that when talking about ideals, everyone is the most beautiful.
The queen said a lot in one breath, from the very first ideals, to some people's disagreement with her decision-making, she could still pronounce the names of those people one by one, when talking about those people, the queen was like an angry little girl, and then talked about the nervousness when she first ascended the throne as the queen, worried that she had done something wrong, and then said that she was forced by her mother to learn all kinds of knowledge when she was a girl, and she was miserable, and even sneaked out of the palace......
Although Zao Wou-Ki did not respond to a word, the queen also seemed to feel that Zao Wou-Ki was listening carefully, which was an atmosphere......
Until the queen couldn't help but say that she was still wetting the bed when she was seven years old......
It all came to an abrupt end.
……
Zao Wou-Ki looked at the queen with an inquiring look.
The queen's face was hot and painful.
What the hell are you talking about?
She has always taken these things to heart, and has never told anyone, including the former king, she has never even told the other party her ideals, because the king is a person who is hostile to subhumans, how can he agree that she hopes that subhumans and human beings have equal status.
But in front of this man, he even shook out all the troubles when he was a child.
The queen wished she could turn back the clock and go back to the beginning of the conversation, and she would have covered her mouth firmly.
Now, she no longer has a hard shell in front of him, and she exposes her softest parts to him.
However, it's long gone, isn't it? The so-called queen's reserve and dignity have long since disappeared, but she is just deceiving herself. The queen thought to herself.
Zao Wou-Ki said: "I have some suggestions, but some of my personal ideas, which may be all jokes, you just listen to them." ”
So Zao Wou-Ki brought up all the things he could think of on earth.
"Well, it's almost impossible to want subhumans and humans to be equal, because nobility is a contradiction. Then there is only the abolition of the aristocracy, but in this case, what is the point of your queen's existence...... However, there is such a country, and it is called the United Kingdom. ”
"The torrent is brave and retreats. At an opportune time, keep the royal family alive and let the era break away from the feudal monarchy, so that the people will hold you high. ”
"Sooner or later, the era of equality for all will come, and someone will always wake up to ......"
"At that time, the country was the master of the country, and the people had the right to vote......
"But this is a long way off, according to the way this era, it will develop for at least hundreds of years, and it will not even appear."
"Then tell you something else, open a school, not limited to the school of the aristocratic elite, how about nine years of compulsory education......"
"Sure enough, it's not normal for another world to have no Demon Martial Academy...... Recruiting gifted civilian street children ......"
"Also, science and technology are the primary productive forces...... How to understand this, you can think about it yourself in combination with magic...... I'm just mentioning ......"
"Also, be close to the people and establish a regulatory department."
"Have more children, more trees, build bridges and pave roads, and use taxes for public works instead of serving as a ...... for the treasury"
……
Zao Wou-Ki rambled on a lot, some of which he didn't even know what he was talking about.
The queen was absent-minded at first, but later took a small notebook and wrote down all the nonsense that Zao Wou-Ki said......
As Zao Wou-Ki said, some are desirable and some are not, such as a variety of trees, and the queen does not understand them at all.
In this world, as long as magic and magic potions are used, there are as many plants as there are.
However, some words, although only a short sentence, burst out of countless thoughts at once......
She carefully collected the small notebook and thanked Zao Wou-Ki seriously.
Zao Wou-Ki yawned, but he was indeed a little sleepy after staying in this garden for a long time, and said casually: "Thank you, even you are my ......"
The queen snapped the pen in her hand.
