Chapter 294: The Power of the Demon
"However, you have joined the battle, Castle Lord......"
Eva smiled bitterly and nodded: "For a hundred years, although the barbarian beasts have not invaded the first-level defense line, they have relied on the restrictions of the entente to burn and loot in the second- and third-level towns and cities of the empire, and slaughtered how many of our human races, so when the news of the ban was lifted in the imperial capital, I did not hesitate to personally lead the army to attack the barbarian beast tide, which was a mistake I made......"
"The city lord cares about his people, why is it wrong?"
"No, Master, you don't understand. Eva's face showed a look of danger: "The strength of the brute beast is not so simple!"
Spiegel frowned, but didn't ask, knowing that Eva would explain.
Sure enough, after Eva took a sip of wine, she said: "There is more than one race of brute beasts, everyone knows about this matter, but what ordinary people don't know is that the total strength of brute beasts actually exceeds that of humans by several times!"
"When the human race stepped on the barbarian star, it was violently attacked by the brute beasts, and the human race first received the protection of scientific and technological weapons, and when the scientific and technological weapons were exhausted, it happened that a batch of capable people were born, including the strongest human beings, the Emperor of the Abandoned Boat, and because of this, human life was able to get a chance to continue on this planet...... This is a well-known history of the abandoned boat country. ”
Spiegel's expression moved, as if he realized something.
"But!" Eva's tone immediately ushered in a turning point: "The truth about the survival of human beings is not only like this! The fundamental reason why human beings survive is that the brute beasts have some intentions against humans!"
The bright eyes were staring at the mirror, who kept a peaceful smile, but Santos next to him had his eyes wide open, and Eva's beautiful face reflected a tiger-like shadow in his eyes.
"Something?" asked Mingjing, whose face remained unchanged, "Aren't you treating us as invaders?"
"No, if the brutes just want to keep humans in captivity for food, they don't need to give us freedom and give us any dignity to live, what they want is something more important than food, a thousand times more important!"
"What is it?"
“...... I don't know!"
Eva's answer made both Spiegel stunned, after all, she was too conclusive, and in the end she said that she didn't know, which inevitably made people feel a sense of contradiction.
But her expression was very sincere: "Master don't have to be confused, I really don't know what the brute beast really wants, but I have been sitting in the position of the White Tiger City Lord for so many years, and I can naturally hear or see clues that ordinary people can't come into contact with, so although I don't know the specific reason, I can be sure that the peace of mankind is definitely not so easy!"
Spiegel was silent for a long time before he said, "So what the city lord is worried about is that your action will cause the treaty to break, and then the brute beast will lead a real army to attack, and the empire will fall into crisis?"
"That's right!" Eva sighed: "Actually, it's okay to kill that sixth-level beast general, after all, I can blame it for its offense to those with similar abilities, and the brute beast side won't make a big move, but the seventh-level beast general later ......"
Spiegel's eyes flashed: "That brute beast, is there a problem?"
Eva nodded: "It's the son of the Demon Emperor, the seventh-ranked demon beast, Demon Venerable Amber!"
Santos's eyes were already stunned, and Spiegel's expression finally changed.
"Yes, it is the emperor-level brute of the demon clan, the son of the demon emperor. Ordinary sixth-level beasts will die when they die, but if the Demon Venerable Amber dies, then the treaty will never be able to continue, so ......"
“...... So you had to let it go, city lord. Spiegel picked up her words: "And, because the Entente is a secret of the Empire, you can't explain it to the populace yet. ”
Eva nodded bitterly.
After being silent for a while, Spiegel suddenly asked, "Since it is an imperial secret, why did the city lord talk to Spiegel in such detail?"
Eva finally smiled: "Because I know that the master often helps me with good things when he is outside, and at the same time, there are many people who are willing to listen to the master's words." ”
"My Buddha is merciful, the mirror just tells the truth, everything the city lord does is for the sake of mankind. ”
"But perhaps only the master is willing to believe in this way. ”
Looking at Eva's seemingly grateful expression, Spiegel thought for a moment and asked, "The city lord's hospitality, Spiegel is grateful, if the city lord has orders, you can be blunt." ”
Eva looked at the mirror, her smile gradually narrowed, and suddenly said: "Master, do you know, I sometimes feel that the human barbarian agreement signed by the emperor is a bit ...... Unreasonable. ”
Spiegel was expressionless and did not answer.
"Since the first line of defense has been established, why do you want to expand out the second and third level towns and cities, so that the human race can accept the slaughter of the brute beasts? This kind of behavior, doesn't the master think that it is a bit like giving up the human beings of the second and third level towns and cities to the brute beasts to kill?"
After pondering for a long time, Spiegel nodded: "What the city lord said is not unreasonable. ”
A hint of coldness rose from Eva's face: "The Emperor of the Abandoned Boat is an unshakable pillar of the empire, and his orders cannot be resisted by anyone, so the invasion of my brute beasts was powerless before, but now that the ban has been lifted, this has also become a ray of hope, and I, I hope that the master can help me and save the humans in the low-level towns!"
Spiegel's eyes narrowed: "Can the city lord be more detailed?"
Eva smiled: "Although the White Tiger Army is dispatched now, if it is not for my intervention, its combat power may still be a little weak in the head-on confrontation with the Brute Beast Tide, especially when the military and civilians in the domain are not united." But these days, I've heard that the master has a very good way of rallying the hearts of the people, so I ......"
"Spiegel is not rallying the hearts of the people, but just spreading the true meaning of my Buddha. ”
Eva, who was interrupted, nodded: "Since the master is a missionary, can you tell me what the master's sect is, is it the Buddhism of the earth?"
Mingjing lowered his head, clasped his hands together and whispered a few words, and then raised his head and said, "If the city lord says Buddhism, it is not completely accurate...... If the city lord really needs a name, it's called, Earth Buddhism!"
"The ...... of Buddhism on Earth"
Eva repeated the name in her mouth, and then her eyes suddenly sharpened: "Then, I am willing to use the power of the White Tiger City to help the master promote the teachings of the Earth Buddhism, so that the Earth Buddhism can spread throughout the White Tiger Domain!"
There was no sadness or joy on Mingjing's face, but he replied lightly: "Has the city lord also felt the holy light of my Buddha?"
"No, I'm not religious!"
Eva frowned slightly, but quickly changed her expression to normal, and explained simply and clearly: "I said, I want to save the human race in the low-level towns and cities, but to do this, there must be a foundation of military and civilian concentricity, and if the White Tiger City helps the development of Earth Buddhism, I hope that the Earth Buddhism can unite all the thoughts of the White Tiger Domain, so that it is possible to resist the attack of the brute beasts!"
Santos swallowed as he realized that Spiegel hadn't accepted the offer right away.
If there was no help from White Tiger City, Earth Buddhism would definitely be able to develop rapidly in a short period of time, and the reward that Eva asked for was nothing compared to the help she provided, so why didn't Spiegel accept it immediately?
Then he heard Spiegel say something like this: "What if Spiegel refuses?"
A cold gaze shot out of Eva's eyes, and then a cold air enveloped Spiegel and Santos's bodies, and they couldn't even break out in a cold sweat, and the white tiger silver crown on Eva's head seemed to come to life.
"The master is so smart, he must know the answer!"
On top of the feast, countless imperial secrets were transmitted, and if you can't get a positive answer, then Spiegel's ending is only one word - death!
"Hehe......"
In Eva's frowning gaze, Mingjing laughed in a low voice, and then said: "The city lord is dedicated to the people, if Mingjing refuses, it will be against my Buddha's true intentions." ”
Eva's eyebrows suddenly loosened, and she smiled, "The master is really kind...... Come on, two more pots of silver snow dew!"
The tension in the tent melted in an instant, but Santos's body was weak, and the cold sweat that had been held on his back for a long time burst out.
At this time, when he saw that Spiegel could still toast with Eva lightly, the respect in his heart was even stronger, and at the same time, he secretly sighed that his Buddha heart was really too bad.
......
In the blink of an eye and two hours, Spiegel took Santos back to the ruins of the town of Tvinas.
After agreeing to Eva's conditions, the feast became much easier, Santos was a little restrained at first, but then he was attracted by the food on the table, and he stuffed it into his mouth, causing his belly to rise high, and he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
But Spiegel didn't pay any attention to this, and after returning to the ruins, he stood in the dilapidated house for a long time with his eyes closed, then opened his eyes and walked onto the platform where the day preached was made.
"Buddhists, please listen to my voice!"
The white light flashed, and the voice with the mirror spread throughout the ruins, as if there was a strange magic, which made all the homeless people who heard it instantly feel a sense of warmth.
Unbeknownst to them, this was actually the power of the radiating path.
"The true Buddha came to the world, and the mirror was terrified to obtain the Buddha's words - the light of the Buddha country has appeared, the rise of Buddhism on the earth has begun, and those who enter the Buddha country will be redeemed!"
After a short period of calm, all the homeless people screamed with excitement.
"It's the words of the Buddha!"
"The true Buddha said that the Buddha kingdom is about to appear, and we are saved!"
"The true Buddha is above!"
In the blink of an eye, the entire ruins were boiling, and the voices of the displaced people became extremely fanatical, as if they had seen the Buddha country as Spiegel said, and saw the so-called salvation.
Spiegel smiled and stepped off the platform, only to be followed by Santos.
"Buddha Santos, you have a doubt in your heart. ”
Santos was stunned for a moment, although he bowed his head respectfully, and said, "Master, the disciple does have some doubts. ”
"Say it!"
"I don't understand, why did the master ask about the consequences of refusal at that time, in this case, aren't you afraid of offending the White Tiger City Lord?"
Spiegel looked at Santos, but his eyes became extremely bright, and the light in them was even a little scorching.
"My heart is to the Buddha, and everything else is empty. Although the White Tiger City Lord is terrifying, her threat reveals that she is indeed a tiger, an alien who can never believe in my Buddha, and her threat is not to be worried!"
Hearing this, Santos' heart jumped.
Listening to Spiegel's meaning, he doesn't seem to have good intentions towards Eva, so is everything he has done before, including using Buddhists to preach Eva's good words, a deliberate performance?
Santos suddenly realized that it was precisely because of these seemingly well-intentioned preaching that their group of unsightly Buddhists were able to enter the eyes of the city lord of White Tiger City!
Looking up again, he saw a fanatical smile on Spiegel's face.
"Rest assured, under the guidance of the True Buddha, we will all be redeemed and live forever in the Buddha Kingdom!"
