Chapter 198: The End of Vain
"What the hell is going on!?" Atena's expression made it seem as if something was suppressed in her heart that made people fearful, and a veteran poet like her could always express in a smile that many people who did not know how to read words and colors could see some subtle messages.
"This is Andrari's latest development of special effects advertising......" Andre said with a sneering expression, extremely embarrassed.
On the other side, the "Darkmoon Mask" has slid down a rope from the pile of goods, and the mysterious ranger excitedly takes off the half-masked mask on his face, revealing a young and handsome face.
"Cousin, uncle, how did I just act?...... Uncle, have you been shocked by my subversive look!?" Arrett Starfire looked smug, but after a moment, his words were speechless.
"The dark side of the moon!?on behalf of the moon to destroy you!?, you kid has made great progress!?" With each emphasis, Atena, as an elder, would knock the young ranger's head "crackling" with the folding fan in her hand. As Elvia's mother, she was really shocked by the scene when Andre was stabbed, and her anger was too much to show to the young lord, but an eyeless guy just came up for her to vent.
"Auntie, I don't dare anymore!" Arrett held his head as he craned his neck, the young ranger taking on the errand because he had heard that he could surprise his uncle's family. In the present view, the whole plan is a surprise and no joy.
"Don't dare to do anything anymore?......" Atena's hand continued...... Judging from the current situation, Arrett must have been reprimanded afterwards.
Elvia, who came back to her senses, curiously touched Andre's "bloodstained" wound, and seemed to have completely forgotten the offense of the children of the abyss just now: "This is also the illusion effect of the mermaid princess?"
The young poet realized what was going on with the starlight Pegasus and the black mist of the dragon and serpent.
"Well, that's a prop effect. André improvised and joined the meme of "taking advantage of the wrong thing", only to remember afterwards that if it did cause a misunderstanding, it was not a harmless joke for an elf girl.
Instead, she pulled up the hem of Andrei's shirt with some curiosity, as if to see if the Children of the Abyss really had such a wound in her abdomen. However, under the hem of Andre's clothes, without warning, a gray, delicate and impressed snake with delicate scales appeared, and its blue eyes revealed a kind of indifference to life. The young poet was so frightened that he almost screamed.
"What was that!?" Elvia's forehead was covered with a slight cold sweat.
“...... Haha, that was a benefit from the Grim Reaper just now, so please don't care. In fact, even André himself did not understand the meaning of this gray snake swimming in his "skin".
"What about the dagger?" said Miss Poet, still a little frightened.
"It's a spring prop, and when you stab the blade into the person's body, it will be pressed into the grip, and the blood will be red jam......"
......
It wasn't until all the members of Qingsan Mei settled down that André knew that these poets he knew were just the first "forerunners" from Garlanord. Later, there will be staff sent by the port of Garlanod to learn logistics experience, ranger generals who visit military training, and civilian volunteers who spontaneously come to learn various handicraft manufacturing and food management from Andrarui. Even after a few days, His Royal Highness the Regent Roseanne would put aside his business for a moment and visit Andrari again to inspect the area and explore the possibility of further economic and cultural exchanges.
"I don't know what Your Highness thinks of the theme of war five hundred years ago?" There were faint wrinkles on His Royal Highness Luo Shan's face, and his calm eyes made the eldest princess's expression look very serious.
Andrei could never have imagined that His Royal Highness the Regent would first mention such a question in his first meeting with him in a year or two.
"It's going to be a rare big production, but it's not a small difficulty, why did you think of putting it on the stage, Your Highness?"
"This is naturally clear to everyone, and it is precisely because of this that we need the support of Your Highness and the demons under your command even more. The eldest princess's tone was very cautious, "Especially your Highness. ”
Generally speaking, touching such a topic at a time when Andrari's relationship with the Elven Kingdom was just getting on the right track always made people feel a little sensitive.
Thinking of this, Andre didn't hide it: "Your Highness, do you think it's really appropriate to discuss these things when the commercial system centered on the southeast of the continent and the Emerald River Valley has just developed?"
After all, the elderly regent in front of her has been silently supporting herself, and if she had any special ideas, Andrari's development would definitely not be as smooth as it is now.
"Andre, maybe you don't know that five hundred years ago, the King of Nations and the Lord of the Demon Dragons actually studied at Dragon Island at the same time as me. "Although not many people know about this matter, in the eyes of the eldest princess, there is no need to hide the son of the abyss. His Royal Highness Luo Shan, who was less than two hundred years old at the time, was in the prime of his youth, and now although his glory has not passed away, it is only because of the magical bloodline of the goddess of the earth, purely according to age, the eldest princess of the elves is already an old man now.
Seeing Andre's expression of disbelief, the old priest Enriel on the side also added: "As a pioneer on the road to study, although I was not familiar with those two future demon kings when I was on Dragon Island, I still know what kind of people they are. Today, their original intentions in deciding to launch a full-scale invasion of all of Garlandia remain an unsolved mystery. ”
The Son of the Abyss wanted to complain about what happened hundreds of years ago, and you told me that I was not as clueless, but he felt that the intentions of the two elven leaders might not be just that: "If you two have any ideas, you might as well say it directly." ”
"As the closest contemporaneous to Mushahn at that time, I originally thought that when he returned to Galandiya again, he would carve out a rich and powerful homeland, as Andre is doing now, but I did not expect that things would take a turn for the worse and finally become like that!"
Enriel exchanged a look with the depressed Highness Rozan, and continued: "Your Highness, do you remember what Kinnos said that day about the scene of the end times?"
"What kind of moon sinks, the sun swallows the earth, or something?" said Andrei, puzzled.
"Mushahn described the same apocalyptic scene before he took his own decision!" said the old priest's face was heavy.
"Didn't the king of all nations fall into the abyss in battle back then!?" This time it was the turn of the son of the abyss to figure out the situation, when he was in the demon world, he had heard more than once the story of Mushain, the king of all nations, who fell into the abyss with the shattered empty mountain, but he didn't think that there was a hidden secret in it.
"They didn't even know about Maserion, who was left behind to destroy the gates of the world, mainly because several of our vanguard leaders who were present at the time were afraid that Mushan's words would cause unnecessary panic and confusion if they spread out. "The old priest's face, which used to feel calm and peaceful, is now full of helplessness," he said, asserting that only the victorious side could prevent the end from coming, and then plunged his blade into his chest in our presence...... Even if we tried to get some useful information later, it never came to fruition, and none of the defeated demon leaders knew a word about the end of the world. It wasn't until half a year ago that Kinnos woke up to my nightmare again. ”
Seeing the expression of the son of the abyss, the eldest princess had some expectation in her heart: "Andre, what did you think of?"
Andre glanced at the people around him with a distressed expression, and found that everyone, including his attendant officer, had a very expectant expression, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This kind of ghostly thing is obviously what I am not good at, but now it is my turn to come up with ideas.
Literally, only those who are victorious are qualified to prevent the end from coming, which means that the side that has the advantage in overall strength such as war has the strength to avoid the catastrophe of the end times. This is very much in line with the Demon Race's tradition of advocating strength and competition, but I don't think that relying on human power alone can avoid the end of the world like a natural disaster. No matter how powerful the army is, it can't have the power to move mountains and reclaim the sea, if you follow the argument of the king of all nations, I think you can still try to cultivate again...... I mean, it's been developing for thousands of years. ”
According to the other world, the sky fell and there was a high top. Andrei never expected that one day he would become one of the so-called "tall men", discussing with the people around him how to deal with the unsolvable problem of "the sky is falling".
"Your Highness, do you mean that Mushahn's last words are likely to mean that the stronger side has the ability to prevent the end from coming?" Enriel asked thoughtfully.
"I don't think it's a capability, but it's possible. The Children of the Abyss always felt like they were discussing something pointless with a group of victimized paranoia, "The side that wins the war always has a little more advantage than the side that loses, but I still don't think that the sights associated with the end can be prevented by manpower." ”
"Then what do you think is the point of what Musharn said at that time?"
"Generally speaking, the more competition there is, the more effective it is. Although the cowardly demon has grown into a powerful high-ranking demon clan, it can be called an existence that is unique in ten thousand or even one in a hundred thousand, but compared with the various races of Garandia, although the demon world is barren, as far as I know, it can also be called a strong one. Compared with ordinary competition, war is the most brutal and effective means of this, and it often affects an entire country or nation. Whether the King of Nations was sensationalizing in the end, or whether he really thought so, I don't think it's reliable. "War can promote technological and scientific progress to a certain extent, which has been proven by history in another world. However, if the scale of the war expands to the extent that it is not controlled, it may also cause a historical setback.
The children of the abyss have never had such an idea, even if tomorrow is the end of the world, how to live today?
"But Kinnos had seen the same thing!"
In addition to Andre, the others in the room also looked worried.
"Who knows?" said Andrei, noncommittally spread. The sky is going to fall, can't we just let it fall?
