Chapter 64: The Situation in the Upper District (3rd Update)

War......

The Glory One chewed on this word that was not unfamiliar with mixed feelings.

That's right—

Not stranger.

Although there has been only one throne in the vast territory of order since the ancestors disappeared, the beacon fire and smoke of order and chaos have never been extinguished, from the construction of the Great Wall of Eternal Night, to the invasion of the Fog of the Nameless, to the waves of the blind and foolish Sea of Chaos.

War is the eternal theme of the world.

Compared with the territory of order shrouded in the long night, compared to the vast river of history, the war between the Chaos Sect and the Order, and the Glorious One in Hemtika is really too small, so small that it does not have even a little sense of reality, so small that even history may not be able to raise pen and ink, and can only be mentioned in a few words in the history books.

But—

Hemtika is different after all, this is where he was born and raised, and where he lives and lives.

After all, I can't let go......

With a deep sigh, he moved his gaze to the young man on the side, and after a short pause, he finally spoke: "Listen to you, it seems that the situation is not very good. ”

"That's right," the beautiful boy of the dice house did not wait for the price at this moment, and directly revealed the information he knew, "not only is it not good, but the pessimistic view can even be said...... Erosion. ”

"Won't the Glory Men and the Order join forces to uproot the Chaos Sect?" Amy Ulysses raised an eyebrow, he couldn't understand - even with the help of the Dark Lords from other regions, how could the Chaos Sect, which had been suppressed by the Council for hundreds of years, suddenly be able to compete with the two transcendent forces of Hemtika?

The girl beside her didn't speak, but just stared at the blond-haired young man in front of her with emerald eyes, also waiting for his answer.

"I'm just a small informant in the lower districts, how can I know so well. Under the pressure of the two lines of sight, Dick couldn't help but scratch his head, "It's just...... There is news that on the battlefield in the upper zone, there is some kind of living weapon that even a plurality of sword wielders and glory can not compete with. ”

"Is it a man-made demon?" Amy thought of this for the first time.

"I don't know," Dick shook his head, "I've just heard that the big guys in the upper districts call them ...... Scourge incarnate. ”

"Pandora. A word that was rather unfamiliar to the Glorious One resonated with the Order's sword-bearers, who gently pursed her lips, slightly pale from blood loss, her usually cold tone with a rare tremor at this moment.

"What's that?" Amy asked.

"The true upper echelons of the Chaos Sect," Mia's voice regained its calm after a brief pause, "a witch who can single-handedly subvert a city." ”

After a long silence, the young glorious man spoke with some bitterness: "It's really a simple and straightforward introduction. ”

This strength is somewhat beyond the scope of his comprehension - there is no clear rank of the Glory, although he has an extraordinary physique and has received the most orthodox combat ability training since he was a child, what can determine the victory or defeat is not this "dead" thing most of the time, but the excavation and use of ability. Sometimes, even though there is a huge difference in the physique of the two sides, and the combat skills are two completely different grades, it is not a special case to use the excellent use of abilities and create opportunities to win by using the asymmetry of intelligence.

Take himself as an example, the aura of death is indeed a very practical ability, even if there is a strong person like the peak of the dark lords in front of him, he is now quite sure that he can save his life, but if he is facing a high-level demon in the underground world that can breed almost endless monsters, he can no longer find a way that can be called good except for escaping.

Annihilate a city with the power of one man.

Other words...... The dark ministers known as "Pandora" not only have quite terrifying hard power, but what is even more terrifying is that there is a high probability that there are no shortcomings in him.

It is as unstoppable as the heavens fall.

Even just thinking of this possibility, the Glorious One has a sense of immediacy as ants looking up at the majestic mountains.

Because of the drop, it is not a simple sense of insignificance, but more of a spontaneous yearning, and a sense of conquest to step over and cross it - this feeling is especially obvious when this mountain is an enemy that must be defeated, and the whole person from body to spirit is shrouded in a strange burning feeling, like a raging flame, involuntarily glowing.

I really want to go back to the upper floor......

Emotions are like a volcano about to erupt, but reason is as cold and calm as a winter lake in the far north - battle is not child's play, but a tightrope walking on the cliff where you risk your life, and if you are not careful, the clouds of death will come as expected.

And "Pandora" is not an enemy he can face now, in any case.

It's just that he also has a reason why he can't escape.

- Yulia Ulysses.

Although he had a certain expectation that the war in the upper area would be stalemate, he had no idea that there would be monsters that could fight against one city with one person, and if the situation really deteriorated...... He really didn't feel comfortable putting his sister in the Tower of the Highest—although if even the Tower was not safe, there was a good chance that the whole of Hemtika would never find any shelter again, but he still felt that staying by his side might be the best option.

Obviously, the strength of the individual is insignificant in front of this vast trend, but he will naturally give birth to such thoughts, to a certain extent, this can be regarded as a deluded self-confidence, right?

He couldn't help but shake his head.

However, this action was regarded as cowardice by the sword-wielding person on the side, and she explained to the Glory One in a serious manner: "There is no need to worry too much, Hemtika is not as weak as you think. ”

"Hmm. Amy nodded, he didn't hide much from his thoughts, "But after dealing with things here, I'm still going to go back to the upper area." ”

In fact, since he decided to return, whether or not he participated in the affairs of the lower districts did not have much impact on him. After all, from the beginning, his purpose was just to muddy the waters and seek a place for himself to live, and now the reason why he didn't go home immediately was just out of the idea that "the rest are inconsequential trash fish anyway" and "it's almost over, and it's too rude to Mia to let go at this time".

"As out of place," Dick of the Dice House interjected suddenly, "but I must warn you that the passage between the upper and lower levels was closed—just three days ago. ”

"Reason. The sword-wielder from the Order immediately raised questions.

"The big guys in the upper echelons feel that the situation is out of control and intend to control the spread of the situation by means of a physical nature, which is about it. The beautiful boy with blond hair and blue eyes paused slightly and said very irresponsibly, "Of course, this is just my guess. ”

"What do you mean by physical means?" Amy had a bad guess in her mind.

"The drive system of the gate has been artificially damaged, and no one will be able to fly over the 'Wall of Sighs' unless they have wings in the rush class. The Apostle of the Dice House sighed, "The steam power is inherently unstable, and no one will repair it until the end of the war - in other words, unless the upper echelons distinguish between the winners and losers, the communication between the two areas will be completely cut off." ”

"What about the grain?" As far as the Glory Ones know, the cultivated land in the upper areas is very limited, and the grain reserves are not very sufficient, and they have always been inseparable from the supply of the lower areas. ”

"Food won't be a problem. Dick gave the answer, somewhat cruel, "Although the output has not changed much, and may even shrink considerably, there are not many people left who have a need for food." ”

"Not much, much. A sense of foreboding welled up in Amy's mind.

"About a tenth — or less. The blond-haired boy paused, "The throne of order collapsed not long after the war began, and the whole world became chaotic in a matter of days...... A series of atrocities gave an excuse not to be blamed, and the thugs immediately raised their butcher's knives against their own compatriots. ”

"Isn't that too fast?" the Glory Man raised an eyebrow, he couldn't accept Dick's rhetoric, "The establishment of order is not a day's work, and under Duke's iron fist, the system of social norms constructed by morality and law should not collapse so easily in such a short period of time. ”

"Perhaps. The Apostle of the Dice House spread his hands, "But I can't provide a deeper reason, after all, there is no more than an intelligence merchant in the lower district." ”

"The whisper of the evil god. Mia gave an unexpected answer at this moment, "This is one of Pandora's inherent abilities, and she is able to use it to demagogue and manipulate people's minds—not to mention ordinary people, even many ascetics are not completely exempt from her spiritual inducements. ”

"Psychic Intervention Abilities?" has a considerable understanding of the tricky glorifiers of this type of ability, but can exert influence on at least half of the upper districts at the same time...... "It's no wonder, but it stands to reason that the parliament should be able to come up with countermeasures." ”

The abilities of the spiritual category should be classified as exceptional, which is an extremely rare type of ability, but looking at the whole of Hemtika, although there are very few glorious people who have the ability to rewrite the cognition of others, as far as he knows, they are definitely not the so-called "unique", let alone "unique" - however, they are helpless to use the spiritual inducement of "Pandora" without exception, and can only let the order of the upper district gradually collapse.

There is no room for optimism.

He thought, then narrowed his eyes.
