Chapter Ninety-Seven: Kingship
If Ling Chen is to make a definition of all human behaviors, then it is desire. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ infoWhatever it takes to get what you really want, that's what people are. Ling Chen has never been a hypocritical person, at least never when he is facing himself. He follows his heart, what he likes is what he likes, what he dislikes is what he dislikes, he never forces himself, and he never restrains himself. Sitting on the supreme position of human rights, such a feeling is very pleasant, full of glory, and is admired by everyone, such a sense of vanity makes Ling Chen even begin to wonder if he was stupid before, why he doesn't care about such a good day, but prefers to sleep in a simple military camp. Yes, at that time, my desires were nothing more than everything in this world, but now it is different. After tasting the deliciousness of the right, Ling Chen wanted more.
"Your Majesty?" Although he knew Ling Chen's temper, Ling Chen had been silent for a long time this time, which made Qian Li, who was sitting on the side, a little flustered, this cunning guy was very afraid of being alone with Ling Chen, probably because of his beastly nature has been guarding himself, this person in front of him is very dangerous, don't recruit this person easily.
"I'm curious!" Ling Chen said, "What do you think of the current Oak Kingdom?"
"What does Your Majesty think?"
"This is the last time I warn you, it's me who asks questions!" Ling Chen's eyes were cold, as if he was about to eat a thousand scales at any time, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground: "I think that this war cat clan and dog clan attack the herdsman together, and the herdsmen must not be opponents." Subsequently......"
"I didn't ask you about the situation of this battle, I asked you, what do you think of Oak, this country!!"
"Huh?" Thousand Scales blinked, he really couldn't understand Ling Chen's intentions, "It's not too much of a problem...... I think. β
"The Oak Kingdom, which is just called a kingdom by us humans, on the surface, is ruled by the leader of the herdsmen, but in essence, it is just a unified and not governed, the dog clan, the cat clan, the herdsmen, the strength of the three clans is equal, which also leads to the fact that the herdsmen have no real leaders at all!!Such a thing does not deserve to be called a country at all!" Ling Chen said as he walked in front of Thousand Scales, bent down and lowered his head, looking into his eyes: "Lord Thousand Scales, don't you want your hometown to become a real country?"
Thousand Scales and Ling Chen's eyes met first, the flame of desire was beating in Ling Chen's eyes, as if ready to devour Thousand Scales at any time, Thousand Scales shuddered and moved backwards: "The real country?"
"The real country!" The corners of Ling Chen's mouth curled slightly, he had already confirmed Qianlu's intentions, everyone has their own loyalty, some people are loyal to the king, some people are loyal to the country, some people are loyal to the family, and people like Qianlan, their allegiance is not to the dog clan, nor to the Oak Kingdom, what he is loyal to is his own desires! Therefore, in the face of his own desires, whether it is the dog clan or the oak, they can all be shaken. Patting Thousand Scales on the shoulder: "The family, the clan you are bent on reviving, I'm curious to see how far you want to be revived. β
Thousand scales were stunned, he hadn't thought about this question carefully, he was a delicate person, he left his homeland alone and came to a foreign race, in his opinion, reviving the family was a long and distant thing, and what he needed was to accumulate strength step by step, as for the extent to which he could do it in the end, he didn't start thinking about it so early, at least he thought it was still early. In fact, Ling Chen has become the king has deviated far from his original plan, and his heart has actually given up on returning to Orke, perhaps in Resnot, remembering that he has his own territory like a human noble, it is considered to have achieved his goal. However, Ling Chen's appearance and dialogue with Ling Chen gave him hope of returning to Oak, so he planned to start the plan again, and it was still not in the scope of Thousand Scales' consideration as to how far it would end up.
"The so-called revival, is there another group of people surnamed Crimson in the grass? Or is there one more Crimson Clan? Or do you want to be a staff member next to the big patriarch like the current Crimson Clan?" or do you want to ......" Ling Chen paused: "Want to rule the entire Dog Clan?"
Still not surprised, Thousand Scales looked at Ling Chen in almost horror, it was clear that this young prince had almost exhausted all his strength to ascend to the throne, and now a foreign country so big in his mouth was like a plaything in his palm.
Seeing that Thousand Scales didn't respond for a long time, Ling Chen didn't have so much patience to surprise him: "I hope you can become the new ruler of the entire Oak Kingdom. β
"What do you want to do?"
"I don't want to do anything, but you inform the kingdom that I rule you!!"
"You ......" Thousand Scales sneered, "Your Majesty, I thought your mind was far more mature than your age, but now it seems that you are still too young, it is good for young people to have ideas and ambitions, but not to be too naΓ―ve, especially sitting on the throne." β
"There are two kinds of desires, one is true and the other is false. Looking at Thousand Scales, Ling Chen said, "What do you think is the difference between them?"
"I want to hear about it. β
"False desires are what I want, and true desires are what I must. β
Thousand scales don't know why, this person has no basis for speaking, but he has an inexplicable deterrent, but he is also a person who has experienced the world, and he is not a mere deterrent to be frightened: "Your Majesty, one thing must be done, not something that can be done by thinking about it." β
"So now I'm here and not waiting in Rensnot. Looking at the silent Thousand Scales, Ling Chen continued: "Now I'm more curious, so do you want to become the ruler of the Orc Kingdom?"
"What are you going to do?"
"I will give you great power, and it is your loyalty that you must have to die, and once you promise me, you will no longer be the last Orc, no longer your family, no more the Canine Clan, no longer loyal to the Orc, and no longer true to yourself!!Whatever I want you to do, you have to do!!"
frowned: "What you want me to do is not a ruler at all, is it?
"Whatever you understand!" Ling Chen said, "You just need to tell me if you want to do it!"
Thousand Scales didn't answer Ling Chen, after all, any decision he made at this moment would inevitably affect his future body, and he had to be cautious and cautious.
"I'm not going to force you, I'm going to give you a day that I'm going to consider, and this time tomorrow, I need you to tell me your answer. Ling Chen said lightly: "But there is one thing I want to remind you, since I have decided to do this, then I will definitely do it, as you said, what I need is a puppet, not you!!"
Thousand Scales did not leave the carriage, but was still a contemplative person, Ling Chen was not in a hurry, sitting patiently in the carriage, looking at the fox man in front of him, Thousand Scales Crimson this person has ambitions, but his ambition is only limited to reviving his family, at this point, he has promised to help him accomplish it, and he has not only promised to help him accomplish what he dare not imagine, the temptation is enough, so what is he worried about? Ling Chen shook his head, if he really cared about the glory of being a canine clan, then he would not leave his hometown to come to the realm of human beings and listen to the dispatch of post-humans! The so-called loyalty, he has served Cao Le all his life, if the loyalty in his mouth is still valuable, it is only used to disguise his own value. He has been under people all his life, but he doesn't want to admit it, in the end, he has to bear a big burden this time, and in the final analysis, it is just to make him admit that he is a slave. Then the rest is to see if he has the energy.
"Your Majesty. Thousand Scales spoke, "I do!"
Ling Chen's evil smile, look!
"Then Your Majesty, what should we do?"
Ling Chen leaned back: "Let me tell you a word, the snipe and the clam compete for the fisherman's profit." Sasha Crimson wants to drive the tiger and wolf, let's deal with the cat clan, then I'm going to let them kill each other first!!"
The canine army is advancing to the east, for these canine warriors, this is not so much an invasion war as a boring march, everywhere the tribe is empty, although many of them leave traces of life, but this situation is really abnormal, even the warlike canine people began to worry, fear overcame desire, and involuntarily slowed down the pace of progress.
The white-sided-haired wolf king looked at the map, according to the map indicating that a quarter of the land of the herdsmen has been taken over by the canine clan, at this rate, it won't be long before half of the herdsmen's territory is gone, and the situation on the cat's side has entered?
At this time, a kobold general ran over, this was the captain of the vanguard with white temples, named Mink: "Patriarch, the enemy has been found ahead!" His words were a little excited, after all, the long-awaited enemy finally appeared.
"Is that great? How many enemies are there? What race is it?"
"Great Patriarch......" Mink Shaer hesitated a little: "You'd better go and see for yourself." β
The white sideburns frowned, and it seemed that the situation was not simple. Climbed up the mountain bag with the mink, and looked in the direction of the mink's fingers, the white sideburns' eyes widened and wrinkled.
Beneath the hill is a vast grassland, and above the grassland, a building made of rock rises, and a wide river has been dug around the building to organize the enemy to approach quickly. These things may be common in human offensive and defensive warfare, but they are obviously very different in the whole country that celebrates wildness and strength.
"This ...... What is this!!"
Sasha Crimson beside him followed his patriarch and watched, intermittently, and said in disbelief: "Great patriarch, this seems to be a building invented by humans, a fortress!!"
