542 "I haven't lost yet"
Recently, I have been sorting out the information, if there is any error, please reply here.
Nicole's words made the atmosphere in the inner room fall silent for an instant.
Even Silo, who didn't know anything about the Iliad, was the same with Allen's party. Those two simple words, taken literally, make people feel awe-inspired, God's right. Thinking back to the day when the spear that fell from the sky nailed the seemingly invincible hunter to the city wall, fear crept into everyone's heart.
Nia originally wanted to avoid the others, but when she thought of the current situation, when the huge Terran only left the imperial capital was still holding on, and the defeat of the Terran seemed to be a foregone conclusion, it was a very pointless thing to conceal the existence of the god Iliad.
Old Pu was silent for a while, and then asked, "Are you sure it's [Theocracy]?"
"I can't be sure yet, but it's not far from ten. Nicole said, "I really can't think of any power other than [Theocracy] that can directly invalidate [Time and Space] and [Endless Life]. And the eyes of the Dragon Emperor, maybe they can also be used as evidence. ”
"The eyes of the Dragon Emperor?"
"Yes, the Dragon Emperor's eyes are the same as Ian's, they are all red. A long time ago, I thought it was because Ian had the blood of the Dragon Emperor in his body, so he had similar characteristics to the Dragon Emperor. But we don't seem to have thought about why all the dragons have red golden eyes, but the Dragon Emperor has a pair of red eyes. ”
Nia thought for a moment and asked, "You mean, it's not that Ian has a pair of red eyes because of his blood, but that Ian and the Dragon Emperor are both Iliad powers, and the reason why they have the power of the Iliad?
Nicole nodded.
"Flawless inference. "If this is the case, why the Dragon Emperor's ability is higher than that of the five kings can also be explained. No wonder the world has never been able to find the [Divine Power], because the [Divine Power] has always been held in the hands of the Dragon Emperor. ”
"That-" Siloh suddenly interrupted the crowd and asked, "I don't know what [theocracy] is, but I want to ask, is it still possible for us to defeat that dragon?"
Siloh asked everyone's thoughts, and although everyone didn't speak, there was no doubt that this was something everyone wanted to know. Everyone looked at Nicole, who was still more convincing than the two elves. Nicole is the only one from the imperial capital, which is the last hope of the human race.
"Well, does the imperial capital have a chance to stop that dragon? Peria couldn't stop asking.
Neither Nia nor Old Pu replied, waiting for Nicole's answer. Nicole looked at the people with hopeful eyes, and wanted to open her mouth to tell them the truth, but she couldn't bear it, especially seeing the girl who lost her legs and another girl who lost her father, and being able to live to this point shows that they are strong enough. Or that there are too many people who want them to live, so that they do not hesitate to sacrifice themselves to let them go to the last harbor of the human race, the last place of hope.
But—
"I can't keep it. ”
The sound came from outside, and Xiu pushed open the door and stood in front of it. The firelight casts her shadow on the wall behind her, like a sapling fluttering in the wind and rain.
"Compared to Alder, the Imperial Capital has one more [Noah's Line], and the victory is that there is still the last hunter reserve in the hall headquarters. However, these advantages are still too insignificant in front of the Dragon Emperor, and the alchemy weapon reserves of the imperial capital are far inferior to Alder, although the number of crossbows defending the city is comparable to Alder, but the ability of the crossbowmen is far inferior to Alder. Xiu said calmly, "On the whole, the imperial capital may be stronger than Alder, but it is only some, now that the Dragon Emperor has returned, Na Shen is still alive, and the probability that the imperial capital can be defended is almost zero." ”
Xiu's words are like knives, piercing people's hearts every sentence. They basically know the identity of Xiu, and they know that the eight achievements of Xiu are facts, but not everyone knows them, such as Lisi. She didn't want to believe that even if she went to the imperial capital, there was no hope, so she asked, "Why can you be so sure that the imperial capital will not be able to hold it? Why can you say that the imperial capital is only better than Alder, and if so, why do most of the refugees go to the imperial capital?"
"Because the headquarters of the hall is in the imperial capital. Xiu's voice was still so calm that he couldn't hear joy or anger, "And the imperial capital was also the first to start publicity, Alder was not, and the reputation of the imperial capital was far higher than Alder." But that doesn't mean the Imperial Capital is easier to hold on to than Alder. The imperial capital was only nine hundred years ago, when Queen Peony thought it was suitable for living, so she began to build the city, which was later the imperial capital. Alder, on the other hand, was the border fortress built by the third Lord of Thorns, Horel, and the second Lord of the Sunflowers, Vika, to open up Terran territory, with the original purpose of keeping the dragons out of the southern realm. ”
Xiu paused, and then said, "A city built for habitation, and a city built to fight against dragons, are fundamentally not on the same level. ”
Xiu's words left Lisi speechless. Not everyone knows the history of Alder, the original Alder is not the current alchemy city, but the "outpost" that humans have planted in the territory of the dragons. Countless excellent hunters have lost their lives here, and the Xiongcheng built by the ancestors with blood and sweat is not allowed to be despised by the rest of the people because it is destroyed.
She also has an obligation to preserve Alder's last dignity.
Xiluo whispered a few words to Lis, and the latter's face immediately turned red, she hurriedly got up and bowed to Xiu: "I'm sorry, I really didn't know that the city lord was your brother." ”
"It's fine. Xiu felt her eyes a little sour, and she gently tilted her head, "They're all gone anyway." ”
The air seemed to be gradually frozen, and although Xiu still pretended to be calm, everyone could see her irrepressible tears. This made Lisi even more guilty, all of them were able to survive until now because Alder's last [shield guard] troops blocked the dragons' counterattack, and the city lord Alder ignited the remaining black powder in the city, detonating the entire city to buy time.
"My brother told me that the Imperial Capital was superior to Alder only because there was a man there, but now that man is dead, in the next room. Xiu turned around and was about to leave, "So there is no point in our escape, and we will die everywhere." ”
Nicole frowned, "Where do you want to go?"
"I'm going back to Alder. Xiu said calmly, "I want to die with my ancestors." ”
After that, Xiu was going to go outside. Nia glanced at Old Pu, who nodded and was about to get up. But at this moment, a pale hand suddenly came out of the darkness and grabbed Xiu's hand tightly.
Everyone was stunned.
"Don't, don't go. The voice of the man in the darkness was extremely weak, "I am still and I have not lost." ”
