Chapter 144: Disclosure of Identity

Seeing that the faces of the two old men began to turn red, Lin knew that he had to say something. Otherwise, because of high blood pressure, they have a cerebral hemorrhage or something like that, and they die directly, then they will be guilty.

"Lord Lord, Lord North, please listen to me first. After that, the two of them made further comments. First of all, Ms. Tikal has not hurt anyone since her resurrection. ──”

Lord Beita is a kind of affectionate honorific title for the lord of the North Tower by the magicians of the Siga Ward Clan. Just like some aristocrats who trace their roots, their surnames are mostly derived from the original fiefdom names. The use of the name as an honorific title also means that I recognize that you are the owner of this land.

As for Fen not killing anyone since his resurrection, it was purely Lin's wishful thinking. While he ran to the mountain village and entrusted the villagers to deal with the coffee beans, while he fought with himself in his dreams, all the killers and assassins who came were secretly dealt with by this lich. Fen didn't mention it, and Lin naturally didn't know either.

And how that sentence is said. If cheating on an exam is not detected, it is not called cheating. In the same way, as long as the murder is not discovered, it is not considered a homicide. In this regard, Fen did it too cleanly. Coupled with her unique method of destroying corpses, the people related to the deceased will only think that someone is missing, and will not think about death at all.

Lin continued: "Moreover, Lady Tikal has endured a thousand years of punishment. It was dismembered and not mentioned, and the head was hidden. It should have been dark, and it would never have been able to return to the world. Perhaps it was the gods who felt that a thousand years of captivity were enough to give her a chance to escape through my hands. A thousand years of captivity, my lords, what sin is there that will take a thousand years to make up. ──”

Although he used the same reason to convince Kaya and Harumi. But Lin thought about it carefully afterwards, the reason for this thousand-year-old imprisonment was actually a little untenable.

The meaning of the existence of prisons, from a positive point of view, is to give prisoners the opportunity to repent and rehabilitate; The prison authorities, on the other hand, are responsible for indoctrination. Look at it from a more negative perspective. It is that everyone must be held accountable for what they do, even if it costs their lives. And the prison is the place where these people waste their lives, decay, and be forgotten by the world in an environment of idleness.

If you look at the situation of Fen from this point of view. Lin once asked if she was conscious when she was dismembered? The answer is no. In other words, to outsiders, a thousand years of captivity seems to me as if I had woken up after a good night's sleep. If this is the case, let alone a thousand years, there is no point in closing it for another 10,000 years. But don't mention these words, save extra branches.

β€”and Ms. Tikal's past actions were actually out of revenge. The objects of revenge are none other than the old gods who were high up in the past. However, a thousand years have passed, and in addition to what we heard of her actions a thousand years ago, are there also those who have been killed by blood relatives who have the right to hold high the banner of revenge and speak out? No. But there are still former henchmen, waiting for the opportunity to move, just waiting for the demon king to ascend and shout, and attack the world again? Again, the answer to this question is no. It can be said that Ms. Tikal is lonely in this day and age. And what kind of harm can a lonely, helpless, and enemies-free woman do to the world? ──”

The Demon King is undoubtedly an indicative figure. But is it the Demon King who has done the most damage to the world, or the Demon King's 'army' that has done the most damage to the world? If the former does not exist, the latter certainly cannot exist. However, in the case of the former, the latter does not necessarily exist.

A transcendent person with no power is just a little troublesome for people who are obsessed, but it is not an inexplicable existence. It's like the chief of the temple warrior of the Mystic Lord, White Mist, who is also Queen Yulia III. No matter how high her strength is, to some people who are at the core of power, she is just a very powerful thug. What really makes people feel tricky is actually the power of the Church of the Mystic Lord.

I believe that the resurrected Ms. Tikal intends to live peacefully in this age. All she needs is for us to use a rational attitude to look at her who doesn't intend to hurt anyone. But if we have to treat her as an enemy, can we expect her, as a lich, to only fight and not fight back, and obediently restrain her hands? Of course, I can understand that the two adults, and even others who knew about it later, were worried about whether she, who was once in that capacity, would return to her old job and pull the whole world into the flames of war again. So today before us, there will be four possibilities. One is that Lady Tikal still has ambitions to rule the world, and if we believe her wrongly, the world will inevitably fall into war; One is that she is ambitious, but we are also on guard, and the result is, of course, war; One is that Ms. Tikal really wants a peaceful life, but we think she has ambition and makes a move, and the result is that she has to go to war with us; The last one is that she wants to be calm, and we give her peace, so that the two parties can coexist peacefully. President, look at the fact that only one of the four paths leads to peace, which shows how difficult it is to achieve peace. Lady Tikal is not a demon, and although she once burned the flames of vengeance to the whole world, she only wants a peaceful life today. And whether this tranquility can be achieved or not, the power of choice is in your hands. ”

For a long time, I spit out a long breath of orange fruit? President Eton said, "What a mouthful of eloquence, I'm about to be convinced by you." Do you dare to vouch for Ms. Tikal? ”

"Hehe, what an honor. If you think I'm qualified to vouch for that, yes, I'm willing to vouch for Ms. Tikal. It's just that if we were all deceived, it wouldn't be enough to tear me to pieces. Even if she were to keep me hostage, if she was really ambitious, I didn't think my importance would make her feel worried. ”

"That's true." Orange fruit? Eaton smiled helplessly. And Lin's tirade also gave him time to calm down and think about other things. One of the unavoidable questions is that if you start fighting, what are the chances of winning? The previous dark age of the Demon King's reign lasted for two or three hundred years. Even if this time it will be over in the end, I don't know how many families will be broken and how long it will have to be delayed.

"And ,β€”β€”" Lin increased his volume, drawing the attention of the audience. After seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, he continued: "It is not without merit that you choose to live together peacefully. Allow me to manipulate the browser. Lin showed the Hongyao-grade magic stone with some carving decoration on his hand.

After getting the president's approval, Lin started to operate the interface. He said, "I sent a letter to your mailbox, Lord Elder, please open it and read it." I'm sorry, but I don't have your email address, so if you want to see it, I can only ask the president to forward it to you. ”

Smell the words, orange fruit? Eaton started the mail system on the spot. As soon as he read the contents of the letter, the old man's eyes lit up and he read the text intently. This kind of performance made the lord of the North Tower, who was sitting next to him and had been acting as steady as Mount Tai and silent, unable to sit still. He coughed several times in a row, and coughed louder and louder before he finally attracted the attention of the president.

"Sorry, sorry, I forwarded it to you. Check it out, the content is quite interesting. ”

"Interesting?" The lord of the North Tower commented on the president, of course, because he was even more curious. When he opened the text and looked at it, his eyes were also shining and full of interest.

It wasn't until the two elders looked at it a few times that they finally looked away unsatisfactorily before Lin spoke, "The most precious thing about Lady Tikal is not the beauty she can see in front of her, but the magical knowledge in her mind that spans thousands of years. The inheritance of magic has not been smooth during this millennium, and there are many possibilities that the concealment and inadvertent loss of the inheritance by someone with a heart will cause the interruption of the inheritance. To be a lich, I think erudition should be the most basic condition. And if you want to know the magic knowledge of a thousand years ago, who is more familiar with it than a lich from a thousand years ago. ”

Once again attracting the attention of the two elders, Lin also noticed that the eyes they looked at the people around them were completely different. Knowing that the fish had taken the bait, Lin continued: "Of course, I don't just admire the magic of a thousand years ago, it must be stronger than the magic of this era. In fact, from the data I gave, the magic of the same effect, if you compare the two, there are still advantages and disadvantages. But in my opinion, the valuable place is not what is better, but the difference between the two. Behind the thought, 'This magic can still be used like this', is to broaden our minds and broaden our horizons. This is the greatest treasure that this lich who has been sealed away for thousands of years can bring us. ”

Change the original tangled face, orange fruit? President Eaton returned to his usual kind smile and said, "I never thought you were such eloquent, Lord Tripwood, and I let you convince you. It's just that I have a question that I'm curious about why Ms. Tikal didn't bother to hide her identity. Now that a thousand years have passed, isn't this a good opportunity to make a new look and start all over again. ”

"The so-called secret is the day when it will be revealed. And before that, I believe that her beauty will bring some unnecessary trouble; And after the secret is revealed, it will also cause other troubles. It's better to let everyone know from the beginning, so some people who are not strong enough will bury their thoughts of coveting her beauty. At the same time, it will not be coerced and used by some people who have mastered the secret. Of course, if the initial disclosure is not acceptable, then the only way to run away is to run to other places of refuge that are willing to accept it. The world is so big, there are always deep mountains and old forests to hide. And I believe that what you used to be should not be the reason for how you are treated today, but what you do today. ”
