Chapter 668: The Witch and the Witch's Disagreement
The work of extinguishing the fire was difficult, and even though the sorcerers of the Orthodox Compilation Committee were later dispatched, Medea, Medusa, and Kuna also intervened, it took several hours to extinguish the fire.
It's just that at this time, the entire Meguro area has been completely turned into ruins, all kinds of collapsed buildings, charred ground and twisted corpses can be seen everywhere, the ground is cracked, the earth has turned over, and the surrounding trees and plants have all turned into black ashes, and it has really become a scorched earth, and there is no life left. Let the people from all walks of life who have taken this scene into their eyes fully understand the horror of the god killer and the demon king, as well as the ruthlessness of the old marquis.
"It's all because of me, because I ......"
With a "plop", Wanli Gu Yuri sat on the ground with a pale face, looking at the area in front of him that no longer had traces of prosperity and modernization before, and muttered guiltily.
Seeing this, ......the Eastern European girl opened her mouth, but she still couldn't say anything, or she didn't know what to say to comfort Yuri Wanli, who had obviously fallen into deep self-blame.
"Saya Palace." At this time, Zhou Chaochong rushed over after receiving the news, and the head of the Tokyo branch of the Formal History Compilation Committee, who had been fighting on the front line, called out Saya Gongxin.
"Your Highness." Hearing the call, Saya Gongxin walked to Zhou Chao's side and called.
"From today onwards, your official history compilation committee will be under my name." Zhou Chao said lightly. But anyone present can hear that there is not the slightest room for negotiation or reversal, and this fact is simply passed to the parties.
"Yes." Hearing this, Saya Gongxin opened her mouth, and finally agreed with a wry smile.
Although, at the beginning, the official history compilation committee did have plans to invest in the Zhou Dynasty, but that idea did not become the mainstream, so it was not long after the proposal came out. It was excluded because of the performance of the Zhou Dynasty, and it was replaced by the course of action of close contact and maintaining a mutually beneficial and friendly state.
But can such a thing be said? What's more, when this kind of thing just happened, I think everyone should understand how to choose now.
"But that's fine, with the fact that the city is destroyed, I don't think the old guys in the committee will oppose this decision anymore." At the same time, Saya Gong Xin thought bitterly.
Then, I heard Zhou Chao say again, "The first task I have given you is to keep a close eye on the whereabouts of the Marquis Vaubon. As soon as he found out about his whereabouts, he immediately informed me. ”
"Yes. Your Highness. Saya Gongxin's expression was dazed, and she hurriedly responded solemnly.
Hearing the task laid out by the Zhou Dynasty, the Saya Palace understood that the Zhou Dynasty was preparing to exterminate the Marquis of Vauban completely, although she didn't know if it would succeed in the end, but as a participant, she also knew the weight and key of the task she undertook, and if she didn't get it right, she would not only offend the Marquis of Vauban but also anger the Zhou Dynasty. ended up with a thankless and tragic end.
It's just that her words fell, and Yuri Wanli, who had been at a loss and didn't know what to think, suddenly spoke.
"Your Highness, do you want to fight the old marquis again?" Wanli Gu Youli looked at Zhou Chao with an awe-inspiring expression and asked.
"Yes, there is a plan. How? Zhou Chao turned his head and asked rhetorically as he looked back at Wanli Gu Youli's gaze.
"Are you still ready to be in this country?!" A look of anger appeared on Yuri Mori's calm face. The momentum was vigorous, and he asked loudly like a noble princess who was high up in ancient times.
"It depends, maybe it is, maybe it isn't." Zhou Chao raised his eyebrows. Retracting his gaze to look at the ruins in front of him, he whispered noncommittally.
He didn't expect that Wanli Valley Yuri would actually see his magic power after seeing it. Dare to ask such a question, I have to say that Wanli Valley Yuri is a very special girl.
At the same time, seeing that the Zhou Dynasty was not angry, Saya Gongxin and the Eastern European girl Qi Qi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and pinched a cold sweat in their hearts for the stupid and bold Wanli Gu Youli.
"Huh? It seems that the king admires this girl named Youli, and actually forgives her offense. Similarly, Erica's gaze at Yuri Wanri also flashed, and she thought with some surprise in her heart.
"Whether it is or not, Yuri is here to plead, beg the king to spare this country! It really can't stand up to the repetition of your battle with the Marquis de Vauban again. The people are innocent, and they really don't want to see the same situation happen again in this country. If the king can agree, even if he sacrifices Youli, Youli will never complain! Wanli Gu Youli looked at Zhou Chao's side face with an awe-inspiring face and said, and after finishing speaking, he straightened his body and bowed to Zhou Chao in an ancient way to express his sincerity.
At the same time, everyone present couldn't help but turn their eyes on Zhou Chao, wanting to see what kind of decision this king would make and whether he would agree to Wanli Gu's request.
For a time, the Zhou Dynasty was in the limelight.
Of course, 10,000 here is an imaginary number, after all, even if all the members of the official codification committee are scattered, they can't make up the number of 10,000, let alone a dozen people present.
"Heh......" Zhou Chao chuckled, and said in a somewhat inexplicable tone, "I didn't expect that in this era, there are still people like you who serve the country and the people." ”
After a pause, he continued, "But it's useless for you to tell me, everything needs to be seen by the actions of the Marquis Vauban . If he doesn't choose to fight in this land, even if I want to, I can't fight on this land. So, get up. ”
"Then please promise me that even if the battle starts again in this land, please consider the people around you, and please don't cause such terrible consequences as today." Wanli Gu Yuli was awe-inspiring to die, and the force was lowered one level lower than just now, and he asked again.
Again, it's not up to me to decide what the consequences will be. Okay, no more talk, so be it. Saya Gongxin, take her down. Zhou Chao waved his hand and said impatiently.
Although he does appreciate the little girl Wanli Gu, in terms of personality, it is really difficult to accept. He's not a child, so why should he need her to preach?
What's more, what's going on with this situation of putting all the blame on him? Is he so unreasonable and arbitrary?
"Yes." Saya Gongxin, who also saw that the Zhou Dynasty was unhappy, hurriedly agreed, waved his hand, and summoned the Gambard Winter Horse on the side, and asked him to send Wanli Gu Youli home.
"You can take care of the rest. Medea, Medusa, Kuna, Erica, let's go. Then, Zhou Chao, who saw Wanli Gu Yuli being taken away, said again.
"Yes, Your Highness." Erica and Saya Gong Xin responded in unison.
Then the Zhou Dynasty did not stop at the scene any longer, and took Medea and Medusa, Kuna and Erica and moved towards their foothold in the Wenjing District.
Only this time, next to them there was a silver-haired Eastern European girl with black vertical stripes on a blue background, wearing a black shoulder and a black short group, wearing a pair of white over-the-knee stockings on her legs, with a slender and tall figure, and a beautiful face like a fairy.
"Erica, don't you want to introduce me?" On the way, Zhou Chao glanced at the Eastern European girl who was one position behind everyone and said.
"King, this is Liliana. Clanichar is the heir to the contemporary title of the bronze black cross, which is as famous as the bronze black cross from which I was born, and the original knight of the Marquis de Vauban . Erica stopped and introduced the identity of the Eastern European girl to Zhou Chao with a smile on her face.
"Former Knight?" Zhou Chao raised his eyebrows and repeated with interest.
"Yes. He was about to report to the king. Erica raised her head a little proudly, "After my persuasion, Liliana has decided to leave the Marquis Vauban and officially pay allegiance to you. ”
"Really?" Zhou Chao was a little surprised, and turned his head to look at Liliana.
He didn't expect that Erica would pull Liliana into his camp like in the original book. Is this showing yourself talent?
"Yes, king." Liliana fell to one knee and replied with a knightly salute with her right hand on her chest.
"Can you tell me why?" Zhou Chao asked curiously. He knew how stubborn Liliana's mind was, and if he hadn't agreed with this choice in his heart, even if Alika was eloquent, he wouldn't be able to let the other party into his camp.
Liliana raised her head and glanced at Medusa on the side, before turning her head to look at Zhou Chao and stated, "Because of your actions." You are a rare king who cares about the people. And the presence of this adult. ”
"Do you care about the people? I seem to have just been rebuked by some shrine maiden for being a guy who doesn't care about the people, are you sure you're right? Listening to Liliana's answer, Zhou Chao laughed.
As for the second reason, even if Liliana didn't explain, he understood it.
Because in the world of the godslayer, the two professions of witch and witch have been serving the goddess since ancient times, especially the sacrifice of the Earth Mother God, and even some of them are simply the blood of the goddesses who are the ancestors of the gods and the fallen Earth Mother God, so it is not difficult to understand that there will be some kind of idea because of the existence of Medusa.
"But there is no one who will use his strength to help the people in times of calamity, except the head of your countryman in that land across the sea." Liliana replied.
This is true, anyway, whether it is from the original book or from the information received from the official history compilation committee and Erica, there is no record description of the godkiller's personal participation in the disaster relief, but there are many descriptions of various cooperative organizations taking action and covering up information after the fact. So from this point of view, the Zhou Dynasty is really a good king. (To be continued......)
