Chapter 0520 - Generous Gifts
The young Eastern officer refused the kindness and clasped his fists in salute, which seemed to be more important in the East, and no one was allowed to encroach on it, especially in the presence of His Majesty the Emperor, who was more like a dictator who could decide the life and death of anyone at will, even if the other party did not make any mistakes.
When Tang Ning was about to lower the curtain, the officer surnamed Zheng suddenly spoke. "Mr. Downing, do you have to settle your strife there by war?"
"Nobody likes war, it's the most helpless option, sometimes something has to go to war. Downing responded after a pause.
"Maybe there's something else to do, but I just didn't find it. The officer surnamed Zheng was a little disappointed, and his eyes looked into the distance. "There's always something that works. ”
"People who think this way end up with nothing, and sometimes you have to make up your mind, like the general you respect in your heart, he pins his hopes on the war, I think that's a decision he made after careful consideration, follow your heart, support him is what you should do. ”
Along the way, Tang Ning was able to understand the thinking of this young man from the East, and the most eastern Emperor His Majesty caused some people to be dissatisfied, and some people planned to pin their new hopes on the war as well, and there would soon be a war in the East to end the rule of His Majesty the Eastern Emperor.
The general who decided to rebel was more determined than the young man around him, an idealist who was always looking for a peaceful solution to the Eastern question, but it seemed that little progress had been made, and he was more worried that he would one day have to face off against his idol on the battlefield.
The officer surnamed Zheng was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and held the reins of the horse, and looked curious after a moment. "You can read other people's minds, is that the magic of your Eternal Continent?"
Downing nodded.
"Then you must be able to see the mind of His Majesty the Emperor, and perhaps he also has a weak side in his heart. The officer surnamed Zheng asked a little excitedly, hoping to determine his inner thoughts, according to his thoughts, His Majesty the Emperor must also have a weak part of his heart, as long as he finds the weak part, he can avoid war, let the general who decided to rebel negotiate with His Majesty the Emperor, and finally settle it peacefully.
Tangning shook his head. "I saw the thoughts of His Majesty the Emperor of the East, and he was surrounded by some people who also knew magic, and he circumvented my abilities. ”
The Eastern officer was a little disappointed, but Tangning's words were not finished. "But I'm sure that His Majesty the Emperor has absolutely no weakness, and for the sake of his right to rule, he can give up anything, including his relatives and friends, and power will make people insane. ”
The conversation between the two sides fell silent for a long time, and it was not long before the Eastern Officer was obviously curious about the Eternal Continent as well. "Do all of you people there do this magic?"
"No, only partially, very little. Downing held out his hand through the window. "Give me your hand, and maybe I can show you your future destiny. ”
The officer surnamed Zheng had a little uninterested smile on his face. "I don't believe in those, the fate of the future has not yet happened, how can anyone know. ”
"You have to find something to do, and it's good to pass the time. Tang Ning looked honest and hooked his fingers. "Come on, it won't do you any harm. ”
Holding the other person's outstretched hand, the future of the Eastern officer came to mind, killing, death, the repetition of those scenes one by one.
The future direction is very unfavorable for the officer surnamed Zheng, because he is too indecisive, he will pay some painful price, even life, death is not very far away for this young officer.
Good people always have no way to live long, and this is the fate of such people in a dirty world, and only those who are despicable and shameless can live, and Tang Ning has some sympathy for this Eastern officer.
Releasing the somewhat rough, calloused palm, always using a weapon that would make it look like this, he proposed, "If you want, I can give you a little advice that will change the course of your fate." ”
Hearing this, the young officer understood what was going on, and said with a wry smile: "If there is no way to change anything, what is the use of only changing my fate." ”
"Usually a small change has some ripple effect, and then other things will change, and you can try it, and there's nothing wrong with that. Tang Ning didn't expect that there would be such a selfless person who would think about others in everything, but he was more interested in changing the trajectory of such a person's life.
No one knows what the ripple effect will be, and it may make things worse than ever, but it is also possible that things will get better, and if it changes, it means that no one can predict the future, not including the Prophet or himself.
He took out some of the potions and sprinkled them on the young officer's palm, the potion penetrated the skin and entered the young man's body, but there was no change in his body, and the young man from the East stroked the palm of the potion with his other hand.
"From now on, you'll be able to see more than anyone else, at least ten blinks later. Downing explained to the young officer. "That way, you'll be able to make decisions that are good for you before you are in danger. ”
The Eastern Officer was skeptical, looking at the car in front of him, and some images appeared in his mind, it was about ten blinks later, one of the tires of the car fell into a deep pit, he shook his head, not quite convinced.
But after ten blinks, the wheels of the car sank into a deep pit, and the body shook, and he jumped off his horse to check, exactly like what he had seen before, could he really see what was to come?
Maybe it was just a coincidence, he thought, beckoning the soldier to lift the vehicle out of the pit, and the vehicle continued to move on, and strange images continued to appear in his mind, and soon a soldier would fall from his horse.
It was also only a moment later that there was a commotion in the ranks, and a soldier on a horse fell to the ground, and he stepped forward to keep the chaotic team in formation. "What's going on. ”
It was reported that it was a thorn in the ground that had pierced the horse's leg, causing the horse to be frightened, but it was no problem, and the soldier was allowed to mount his horse and continue on his way, and he urged the horse to rush to the side of the vehicle at once.
Lowering the curtain earlier, Downing could see that the officer was clearly not convinced by the change he was talking about, but it would not be long before his ability would be verified.
A voice sounded outside the car, and the old man on the side translated. "He's thanking you. ”
In the next few days, the young officer became more respectful of Tangning, and the conversation between the two became more fluid than before, and even some simple sentences did not need to be translated, and he found that the young man from the East had a very strong memory and learning ability, and even somewhat similar to himself.
The procession soon arrived at the port where Taylor was, but the harbor was not guarded by soldiers, and the eastern procession drove straight in, causing great panic among the local residents of the port.
However, the young officer asked the soldiers not to disturb the inhabitants of the place, this officer was somewhat kind, but compared to others, his kindness was based on strong strength, and the opponent's fighting skills were not weak, such kindness seemed more meaningful.
Now it has completely become the place ruled by the emperor of the easternmost place, although the soldiers of the east have not yet been among the invaders, but there are no resistors here, the kingdom here exists in name only, and an era is over.
According to what Tang Ning said when he left, the time to request reinforcements was about half a month, and if he didn't come back in half a month, Taylor had to return to the Eternal Continent alone.
Now that the half-month time limit has passed, she is a little worried. "I'll have to go to the East to find him. "He had the supplies ready for the road.
Anna looked at the paladin on the side, Cyber Tan understood, Tang Ning left the girl here because he was afraid that the girl would encounter danger, no one in the more eastern world understood, and now that the young man has not returned, if the girl goes there, she may also encounter unpredictable dangers.
Walked up and stopped the girl who wanted to leave. "Taylor, we have to return to the Eternal Continent, just like he told you before leaving, don't worry, with his ability, there will be no danger, maybe it's just because of something delayed, don't worry. ”
Taylor knew that the words were just comforting and shrugged. "No problem, I'm also a powerful magician, and with the enhancement of elven potions, there will be no danger on the way, don't treat me like a little girl. ”
"I wish he could come back here more than you do, and I haven't questioned him about what he did to me. Cybertron looked back at Anna and sighed. "If you insist on going, we'll be with you. ”
"I understand your good intentions, Cybertron, Downing has no prejudice against you, some of his ways of doing things may be a bit excessive for you, but he has a very important burden on him, he has to do that, if you still hate him, I apologize to you for her, you don't need to put Anna in danger for this matter, I am enough. Taylor's gaze was fixed on the paladin. "It's time to separate, don't be so pessimistic, maybe I'll bring him back. ”
Cybertron didn't know how to respond, and hesitated for a moment. "Well, I hope you can come back with him. ”
When Taylor opened the door, he saw soldiers from the far east, and the whole street was full of local residents fleeing in panic, and it seemed that the easternmost invaders had no trouble entering and occupying the place.
Then a car pulled up in front of the room, and Taylor, sensing some danger, immediately closed the door. "Those Eastern soldiers noticed this. ”
Cybertron also saw the situation outside the door just now, thought for a moment, stepped forward to reopen the door, and saw the figure who had already walked to the door.
