Chapter 1385: The Basis for Reaching an Agreement
Now it was Roland's turn to be stunned.
The other party's long silence made him think that this inquiry might be in vain, but he didn't expect that as soon as Nightmare opened his mouth, he explained the origin of the floating land, and explained it in great detail, and this contrast made him unable to react for a while.
"What's that expression on your face?" Vakiris, opening her eyes, said angrily, "I didn't betray the race, I just agreed with Sistalis's opinion - the battle of the divine will cannot be exchanged for the continuation of the race, and if it continues, it will only become a pawn of the gods, so ...... Aborting it is the right thing to do. ”
Well, that's clearly his opinion, right? Roland subconsciously touched the back of his head, thousands of years ago the thousand shapes could not be stably connected to the consciousness world, how could he know so many details. But no matter how dull he was, he knew that he should follow the other party's words at this time.
"Yes, you've finally figured it out. He withdrew his surprised look, tried his best to pretend to be generous, and stretched out his hand, "Although the gods have noticed us now, I believe it's not too late—"
Vakiris, however, did not respond to his handshake.
"Before I do that, I want to ask you a question. ”
"What?"
"If everything turns out to be as the oracle says, what are you going to do with the relationship between our race and the humans?"
Nightmare's expression was extremely solemn, and Roland realized that this question would determine everything that followed—and that she was able to ask this crucial point, proving that she had indeed begun to consider the possibility of cooperation, and the real way out of the race. He even had a vague premonition that if the answer was not acceptable to her, she might be forced out of the dream world, even if it was in the form of death.
"To be honest, I haven't figured it out yet. After a moment of contemplation, Roland replied slowly.
Vakiris frowned and said coldly, "So you just talked about it at first, and you didn't believe that I would cooperate with you at all, right?"
"No, I did, but it's too complicated. He smiled wryly, this answer was really not qualified, but he didn't want to make up a nice one first. The other party is not stupid, and painting cakes is not his strong point, rather than being self-defeating, it is better to tell the truth according to what he thinks in his heart, "The war between mankind and the devil lasts for thousands of years, and this hatred cannot be eliminated in a short time, and it is almost impossible to make reality the same as dreams." The only way I can think of for the time being is to separate the two completely, and leave you forever from the human world. ”
"Where to go?"
"That's something to think about later, but the world out there is so big, I guess there's always a place to stay. ”
The two looked at each other for a long time, until the wisps of heat on the coffee dissipated, and Vakiriss broke the silence, "If your answer was unthinking and comprehensive, it would probably be a trap, but for now, I think you really want to do that." ”
"Uh...... Didn't think of it as a qualified answer?"
"Think so. Nightmare let out a sigh, "I admit it's a one-plank bridge over the abyss, unpredictable whether it's going forward or down, but even if there's little hope, I'll have to try—because I'm the only one in the tribe who can do it." ”
Roland noticed that her hands clenched involuntarily as she said this.
Obviously, her heart is not as resolute as she said.
But he also knows that this is not an easy decision to make. For most people, falling into the abyss is the norm – when there is no difference in the ending, it is a relief to give up.
"Don't be too complacent," Vakiriss glanced at him, "the gods who planned the battle of the Divine Will will never sit idly by and ignore your actions, and I don't think you have much chance of winning if the whole world was created by it." Therefore, the end result is likely to be the complete destruction of both races, leaving not even a trace behind. ”
"I think so too. Roland said calmly, and he extended his hand to the other again, "So we are all on the same single-plank bridge." ”
This time, the Nightmare Lord slowly stretched out his right arm and held it with him.
"So, let's settle the matter of God's creation. Seeing that the agreement had been reached, Roland picked up the phone, ordered her a new Peninsula coffee takeaway, and then said eagerly, "Is there any way to contact Shanghai Kezod? It would be good to have it transfer this floating land back, or simply let the First Army station, and cooperate with us to go to the bottomless realm." ”
"It's too late. Vakiriss shook her head.
"What?"
"I had wanted to put Hexzod into a dream, hoping to use it to gain information from the outside world and increase the chances of convincing it, but I didn't expect the situation to go even worse than I expected - it believed Ersluk's suggestion, and the god of creation should have been requested by the king, and the situation has developed almost irreversibly. ”
"What do you mean......"
"Do you think that the Lord of the Sky alone can control the trump card of the race? Once the god of creation reaches the Western Front, it will be impossible to get it back, let alone Hekzod, and even I will not be able to convince the king and all the Maharajas. Vakiris said bluntly, "What's more, the Lord of the Heavenly Dome must have been under considerable pressure to apply for the mobilization of the gods of creation, and now if he wants to win it over, the success is very small. In other words, I'm the only one who has agreed to work together – at least for now. ”
"For now?" Roland keenly captured the hidden meaning of the other man's words, "Is there any other way you can influence Hekzod?"
"I know it—let it stand up and take all the risks, it's impossible to disobey the king's orders when the road ahead is unknown, but it's not hard to remind it to avoid danger." Generally speaking, it is always the most concerned about its own safety......"
Roland couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, this word translated, if it sounds good, it is cautious, and if it doesn't sound good, isn't it timid.
"I'll write a letter to keep it away from God-made God – that's the only thing I can do. As long as you can get the word out, it will do so nine times out of ten. But the impending war is inevitable, and you have no other way but to defeat the gods of creation. "Only by shooting it down will Hekzod realize that the battle of the Divine Will won't work, and the chances of me convincing it will increase a lot." ”
"Therefore it must live until God made it...... That is the basis of our cooperation. She looked away so that Roland couldn't observe her expression, "If you can't do that, then I'll say nothing." ”
