Chapter 406: The boundaries drawn by reality are always shorter than human beings estimate
Uproarββ!
It's like a stone slamming into a calm lake.
Because Adele suddenly revealed the truth.
The people who had just been united and prayed hard exploded in an instant.
"What? The Great Eye is gone? β
"Impossible! The Great Eye is the patron saint of the Eye Demon world, and He will not abandon us! β
"Your Highness Arya, what the hell is going on? Is what His Highness Adair said true!? β
"It's over, the world is over, we're dead......"
For a while, some people broke down and shouted, some people questioned angrily, and some people were desperate.
With the different reactions of the people to this truth, the scene suddenly became chaotic.
Alia, who was also frightened by the truth revealed by Adele, also missed the best opportunity to calm the people's emotions because she didn't react for a while.
Then, she didn't know anything, and she was even more speechless when she was forced to ask questions by the people who were gradually emotional.
Coupled with Adele, who repeatedly sneered and emphasized the cruel reality despite Arya's blocking.
Even the soldiers of the convoy who were still assisting in maintaining order had a tendency to mutiny.
But at this moment.
"Ahem, ahemβ"
Suddenly, a small cough sounded from the crowd, but the fierce words were silenced one after another like dominoes that had been pushed down.
"Ahem......"
With the cough again, the crowd instantly became empty.
People looked at the mother in the middle of the clearing, holding a little boy with one hand, with an ugly expression, covering her mouth with her left hand, her face was extremely weak and pale, and after a moment of sluggishness, her expression began to gradually change to horror.
A terrifying and oppressive atmosphere instantly swallowed the audience.
Finally, someone couldn't stand this atmosphere anymore and said what everyone was thinking at this time with a trembling voice.
"Yes...... It's the Red Death...... She had the Red Deathββ! β
This shout is like a little spark that ignites the dark fuse in the heart of mankind, and wants to explode the ugliest side of mankind.
"Kill...... Kill her! Kill herββ!! β
Malice is accumulating rapidly.
As long as the lead burns out, it can explode instantly.
In the meantime, Arya wants to step up to the mother and son to stop the tragedy.
But as soon as she took a step, she was tightly pulled by Adele, who walked in front of her at some point.
Arya, who couldn't break free, looked at the scene in front of her with some despair.
Can't stop it?
No, at this critical moment, a majestic shout suddenly sounded from the direction of the door.
"What are you doing?"
It was Adenis's voice.
In the nick of time, he finally came to sleep.
and came to his people.
With the prestige he had accumulated over the years, he had pulled his people back from the edge of the abyss full of evil thoughts.
I saw Adenis walking quickly in front of the mother and son, blocking them behind him, looking around, and said in a deep voice:
"Everyone, please calm down and think about it, that won't change anything."
Adenis swept over the aggressive gazes one by one, meeting them one by one with a sincere gaze.
"Don't forget, the Red Death is not contagious."
Yes, the Red Death itself is not contagious.
Its causative agent is a substance in the atmosphere.
The crimson sky is its real "source of infection".
Don't the inhabitants of the Eye Demon know about this?
No, they know.
But in the situation of being engulfed by the pressure of despair just now, they have been stunned and have no reason to speak of.
If it weren't for the arrival of Adenes to break the atmosphere of despair and become their "spiritual pillar" in a sense, these people would not have found themselves so quickly and retreated one by one in the process of staring at Adenes.
After a moment of silence, an inquiry was raised.
"The Great Eye, the Great Eye...... Did you really leave? β
To this, Adnes did not try to hide anything, but looked at his people calmly and gave an affirmative answer.
"Yes, the Great Eye has indeed left this world, and, probably, will not return."
By the way, Ardenis also included an equally shocking message.
"Denton, on the other hand, is back in the world."
Adenis added.
"That's right, it's the leader of the Reformers who was exiled to the universe by the Great Eye a thousand years ago, Denton.
"He's back.
"Not only that, but once again he made me a proposal to modify your body."
Adenis told all the truth in one go.
This made Adair couldn't help but glance at Adnes in amazement, not understanding why he was talking about it at this time.
In his opinion, according to the performance of those stupid people just now, what is the difference between this and directly pushing them to Denton's camp?
Could it be that my father had already decided to accept Denton's proposal?
Just as he was thinking, Adair listened to Adenis continue:
"I've told Denton that I'll give him an accurate answer tomorrow after some serious consideration, so ......"
Adenis continued methodically.
"Please give me a day too, and I will definitely give you an explanation before the end of tomorrow!"
In this way, Adenis spread everything out.
This will not only effectively calm the emotions of the people, but also prevent the possibility that Denton will use the information gap to spread panic among the people.
The key to the success of this strategy lies in whether the people of the Eye Demon still believe in their Emperor......
Fortunately, the results were good.
Faced with the trust of his people in him, Adnes couldn't help but feel a deep sense of guilt in his heart.
Immediately, Gallo carried a stack of rice bags he had received from Edith and returned to his slumber.
This solves the immediate need for food shortages.
The mood of the population is more stable.
Especially when Arya opens the rice bag and shows them the snow-white rice inside.
However, after listening to Gallo's report, Adenis's heartstrings couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Edith ......"
Ardenis walked over to the bag of rice that had been opened by Aria, reached into it, grabbed a handful of rice, and let the grains slip back through his fingers.
At the same time, such a murmur came from Adenis's mouth.
"It's been a long time since I kept it in the cold storage as a souvenir......
Why, then, these rices don't feel cold at all?
Adenis, who added a sentence in his heart, couldn't help but sigh.
When did it start? Edith, even you don't show your heart to me anymore......
At this thought, Adenis's desire to talk to Edith suddenly became stronger.
I saw Adenis say goodbye to Arya, who was directing the cooking, and turned to leave, heading for Edith's laboratory.
Looking at the back of Adenis turning away, in a trance, Adair saw the scene when his mother died, Adenis left their brothers and sisters without looking back, and left the house.
This made Adair can't help but shout.
"Father's ββ!"
Everything seems to have returned to the past, and Adair has changed back to the way he was when he was a child.
Behind him were the body of his mother, Alam, who wept bitterly, and Aralia, who was still comforting her brother with tears streaming down her face.
In front of him is his father, who seems to disdain this and is indifferent and far away.
"Heh......"
Adele's face couldn't help but show a hint of self-deprecation, and he lowered his head.
Sure enough, even if the Great Eye leaves, you still haven't changed.
Adair thought to himself.
But then a voice sounded, but Adair's head, which had just been lowered, instantly raised.
"Adele."
That's, Adenis's voice.
"Father's ......"
The memories of the past are shattered, replaced by images from reality.
Adenis, turn back.
"Before I come back, here, can I give it to you?"
Under Adenis's solemn gaze, Adair nodded stunned.
"I ...... I understand. β
Adair replied subconsciously.
"I'll take care of everyone."
"Hmm."
Adenis nodded to Adair.
He then retracted his gaze, turned around, and took another step towards Edith's laboratory.
Adair was silent for a moment, returning to his senses, and the corners of his mouth faintly curled.
However, before he could carefully appreciate the long-lost feeling in his heart, he saw a figure running quickly past him.
With a muffled cough echoing in his ears.
Adair instantly fell into an ice cave.
"Sister Wang......"
