Section 728 The difference between a hegemon and a king
And at the same time, on the mysterious planet ......
The Blood Pupil had just woken up from sleep. Outside the ornate tent, maids were already waiting, and they knelt respectfully in front of the tent with pots of water and weaving, waiting for the blood pupils to be used.
Uh, you ask me why I put quotation marks for Lu? This one...... Will the knife tell you that they are just dressed like women? Thick thighs, majestic pectoral muscles, plus thick black hair and unevolved scales. You want to say that they are like women, and the knives are sad for your aesthetics.
But that's exactly what makes the Trismo Empire special. Women are beautiful in terms of strength. In a primitive and rapidly developing civilization, it was necessary.
Because only strong females are suitable for giving birth to strong offspring. As for the weak beauty you want. This thing is really a luxury......
However, these have no meaning with the Blood Pupil, in fact, as a well-informed cosmic mercenary, the Blood Pupil has already seen too many civilizations and races. In this vast universe, any race, any civilization, any individual, has the right to pursue evolution. No one has the right to stop others!
There is only one condition, and that is the amount of force.
Reaching out to pick up a piece of fabric from the copper basin, the blood pupil simply wiped his face. I immediately felt much better.
Although he is now an out-and-out 'planetary level', he has traveled for so long and has not deliberately cut off the environment. Therefore, wind and sand are indispensable. Last night's bath, combined with a deep sleep, had brought him back to his best.
Strange to say, he hadn't experienced the Nightmare Battlefield since the ruins incident. It was as if the terrible encounter was really just a dream. Drift away.
The maid obediently bowed at the feet of the blood pupil, and only raised her hand to take the fabric that the blood pupil had thrown down.
"Where's Xiuji?" Blood Pupil asked calmly.
"Your Majesty is at the source of blood." The maid replied in a frightened manner, and that timid look really did not match her stubble appearance. (Ahem, you just imagine a big man who is eight feet tall and has a waist circumference of eight feet.) )
The blood pupil was slightly stunned. "What is he doing at the Source of Blood."
After the maid's explanation. Of course, he knew that the source of the blood of the Dao Dao was actually a canyon. It's where the Empire has always beheaded criminals. Because the empire has been fighting for many years, and the enemies killed are innumerable, so that canyon has gradually received such a name. It is said that in that canyon, even the rocks were stained red with blood, and when viewed, it looked like a huge piece of blood emerald.
The maid didn't know what the blood pupil was thinking, but she still bowed her head respectfully and said.
"Your Majesty is preparing a blood sacrifice for you."
"I see." Only then did the blood pupil remember the conditions that Hu Ge had promised him, the blood sacrifice of 10,000 young virgins and 10,000 boys.
However, this was just a pretext for him, and he had never thought of accepting such a blood sacrifice.
In fact, the blood sacrifice was meaningless to him. He is not a primitive savage deity.
"What about my companions?"
"She's still resting." The maid replied respectfully.
Blood Pupil nodded. "No need to wake her up. Take me to the source of blood now. ”
"But the great gods......" The maid looked up suddenly, with a frightened gaze. We...... We don't have that qualification......"
"I said you have it." The blood pupil didn't talk nonsense, and immediately grabbed the maid, and then flew out of the palace.
The Valley of Blood was not far from the Imperial Capital, so it only took a while for the blood pupil to fly to the location. When he landed, everyone fell to their knees. Even the monarch of the empire, Xiuji, was no exception.
He was still wearing the heavy armor of black iron, like an armored giant. In the canyon behind him, there were dense figures, and there were at least 10,000 people at a glance.
Really. They are all materials for blood sacrifices.
At a glance, the blood pupil saw that these figures were young girls and boys. It's just that unlike the men and women who are common in Trismo, the girls and boys here are slender and have strong humanoid characteristics. They timidly huddled together. There was fear and pleading in everyone's eyes.
Blood sacrifices are solemn and sacred, but there is no example of the necessity of using one's own nationals. So these people collected by Xiuji are obviously the losers of the war. That is, slaves.
"My lord, what brought you here?"
Kneeling in front of the blood pupil, Xiu Ji said respectfully. "My brother has already told me. There will be no diminished offering to you. Now I have prepared 7,000 virgins and 10,000 virgins. I believe that in a very short time, your blood sacrifice will be completed. ”
When he said this, Xiuji's tone did not fluctuate in the slightest, as if the deaths of 10,000 men and women were just a number for him. It makes everyone who hears it shudder.
However, the blood pupil didn't feel anything. He just stared coldly at the figure in the canyon. After a while, he shook his head.
"I don't need a blood sacrifice."
"But the great, supreme faith!" Xiu Ji raised his hand and said feverishly. "No one can reduce your offerings!! Even if the whole nation of the world were to stand before me, I would crush them! The sky, the land, the endless desert and the sea, are all your property. Everything is yours!! ”
Fiercely lowered his head, and Xiuji's eyes shot a bloodthirsty red light.
"I feel guilty because I will not be able to dedicate you to the complete world world until your coming. But please give me a moment! In a few years, I will surely unify the continent. Everything is served in front of you! You are the great, supreme Lord! Only you are worthy of this sky, a land! I will be the sharpest spear in your hand and sweep away all enemies for you! ”
"Oh?" The blood pupil was stunned.
Xiuji seemed to be a little different from what he saw last night. The biggest difference is that he is full of endless confidence. That powerful and violent overlord aura seemed to be able to sweep through everything in this heaven and earth. Let the blood pupils be surprised.
But it was only in an instant that he figured out the cause and effect in this, and he couldn't help but smile slightly.
"Xiuji!" The Blood Pupil reached out and pressed the monarch's shoulder. Then he said seriously. "You're wrong."
"Please show me!"
"Conquest can destroy civilization and conquer civilization. But it can't grow into civilization. The blood pupil said softly, as if teaching a junior. But his eyes gradually blurred, as if he saw Crodier's tomorrow.
"You have to remember! You have today's results, it is the will of the hegemon. But you can't just be a hegemon forever. If you have the ambition to annex the mainland, then you must also have one condition. That is tolerance. ”
The fingers of the blood pupil slid over Xiuji's visor, bringing out a hint of coolness.
"Power can only mean conquest, and only magnanimity can lead to development. This is the difference between a hegemon and a king. ”
"Otherwise......"
The sound of the blood pupil stopped, and his fingers happened to fall on Xiuji's eyebrows.
"You're going to die."
"You and your country, will die."
"For it is this and the will of God."
On the fingers of the blood pupil, a red light flashed indistinctly, and Xiuji's face immediately changed...... (To be continued......)
PS: The second update, the knife is not lazy. Go to bed and go to work tomorrow.
