Chapter 527: The Aftermath Ripples
While the sound of the box cut attracted everyone's attention, Lin led the people to slip away from the side alley.
Anyway, it's just to go to the east of the city, and it's not just one way to go, so a detour is nothing. It's just that Uzov came up at this time and asked, "Your Excellency, is there no problem with handing over the box cut to them?" ”
"What kind of problem do you mean?"
Faced with the magician's rhetorical question, Uzov thought seriously for a moment and said, "It seems that no matter how it develops, it will be bad." "For example, if the box cut is taken to cut people, there must be a lot of casualties based on its sharpness. Another example is that the box cuts something nonsense, and then makes a fuss.
In this regard, Lin said indifferently: "There is a saying in my hometown: I don't do bad things in my life, and I am not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night." As long as he hasn't done some unsavory things, and he doesn't have some tricks, he won't do anything too out of the ordinary. Don't look at the things it likes to say, 'You humans are different from me', in fact, in addition to its curiosity and fear of loneliness, it is also much wiser than you and I think. After all, it has been living in the Lost Land for tens of thousands of years. And that's not even counting the experience before that, because in the original world of Hakiri, there was no concept of time. ”
"Ten thousand years?" Not only Uzov was taken aback, but also those who were paying attention to the conversation here.
Lin didn't care about it, and just talked about the secrets of the Chiche clan, and he didn't want him to keep it secret anyway. There is no need to keep those things secret, it's just that no one has circulated them.
"The Boxer clan came to the Lost Land tens of thousands of years ago, in the era of the Great War of Gods and Demons, driven by curiosity, through an ancient world tree that has been wiped out. And they can't move around on their own, so they can only rotate between different users. As a result, they have witnessed the history of countless lost lands, but only to the part they have participated in. ”
Although the Crate can establish a soul-level connection with the holder, the holder cannot lie to the Crate; But there is no psychic network between them. Lin learned from the words of the box cut that when they met the same clan, they were usually in different camps, attacking and destroying each other. Therefore, the news of other people of the same clan is obtained from the knowledge of the holder.
It is precisely because of this limitation that someone originally wanted to dig out some historical secrets from this living history book to satisfy his desire for gossip. Unfortunately, it doesn't necessarily know more than it has ever been recorded in history. It's just that there are some very shocking gossip from its former holders.
It is also because they have lived for such a long time that they are more afraid of loneliness than ordinary people, afraid that they will not be able to prove that they still exist; At the same time, in these years, they have accumulated enough wisdom to form their own personality, and they will not be influenced by the holder and easily change themselves. That's why they choose their masters.
It is said that if a couple wants to be together, they will choose their other half carefully; Even if it's just walking in a group or working together, people will choose the right companion for them, and why don't they choose someone who can hold them and venture around.
So Lin was not at all worried about the possibility of being handed over to that nobleman and then not coming back.
Not to mention that you want to recall the box cut, you can do it anytime, anywhere. If the other party only does some trivial things such as stealing chickens and touching dogs, it is estimated that it will not have a big impact, and handing over the box cut is just a diversion of focus. But if it is done in some big things that are angry and resentful, the follow-up impact is not expected to be small.
After all, the sword that lacks virtue will be announced in public nine times out of ten. It's just bullying ordinary people and no one can threaten it, except for throwing it away, out of sight.
It's just that someone thought he had thrown a grenade and ejected it, but what actually exploded was a nuclear bomb that had shaken the situation in the city of Abadan.
According to the original plan, the group bought some daily necessities at the branch of the Wizards Association to return their appearance to the civilized world; Later, when he found the restaurant introduced by Hassan Bakhsh and ate the long-lost hot vegetable soup, the streets of Abadan City began to kill people that no one expected.
The Lord's regular army, Falzad, the strongest of the Tenth Legion, went mad after his benefactor, the Viscount of Nia. And he doesn't care about hurting the innocent, and he uses all kinds of mass destruction techniques on the battlefield without hesitation.
The sheriff who was in charge of the city of Abadan was the first to intervene and was killed without incident. The title of the Transcendent Seed is not just a false title, but also a recognition of strength. And this gap in strength can only be filled with ten or a hundred times the casualties. It's just that the morale of the sheriffs collapsed before they could pay enough for their lives, and no one dared to stand in front of Falzad. Hot Books
And one of the root causes of the matter, the second son of the Nia family, used the life-saving portal scroll to escape from the scene as early as the beginning of the chaos. It is precisely this kind of action that makes things expand out of control.
The second bloody scene is Farzad's home, and the victims are his beautiful wife and two cute and clingy children, a boy and a girl. The children die without understanding what they have done wrong. Instead, their mother had a relieved expression and calmly accepted death.
Falzad lived in the high-ranking area of the military quarter, and this behavior immediately ignited the sensitive nerves of the higher-ups of the city of Abadan, and the 10th Army of the regular army was dispatched. Responsible is, of course, his immediate superior, the eldest son of Viscount Niah, Barry Nia and his team of thousands.
Can an army that has been peaceful for a long time fight? If it were on Earth, someone could say responsibly: Guarantee no. Thinking about the Eight Banners of the Great Qing Dynasty that broke through the Xiongguan, it is not difficult to understand what the bear looks like after that. But in the maze, someone can also say very responsibly: no matter what, it will retain a certain amount of combat effectiveness. This is due to the fact that the reality of the two worlds is different.
The natural threat of the Lost Land is much higher than that of Earth, so there are many adventurers, which means that the civilian force is quite strong, although it can only be regarded as a straggler. If the force of the state is not strong enough to suppress the civilian population, how long can such a state be maintained? It was overturned in minutes! Look at Lao Mei, who has a gun license in the people, and what level of equipment the police are.
Therefore, the army of the Gwanne Empire has become a mess of officers, and the most basic soldiers are still very capable. And no matter how bad the officer is, there is still a bottom limit. In addition to the basic force, they did not dare to eat empty salaries, or put their relatives aged 8 and 80 in the army to make up the numbers. Otherwise, if you come to attack the city, not to mention that all the soldiers under your command are dead, you will not be protected.
In such an environment, it is very inspiring for a person like Farzad to be ranked among the Imperial officers as a civilian, and among the soldiers. And cannibalism is something that no one wants to do, especially because the source of the matter is the bad things done by the nobles.
It's a pity that the red-eyed knight doesn't care about any of that. When he saw the aristocratic friend who grew up together, he directly launched a war charge, almost killing the military formation.
In the end, under the attack of ten thousand arrows and the resistance of the elite magician team, the knight, who was once known as a candidate for the transcendent realm, lost that opportunity forever. And at the cost of a thousand-man squad, nearly a third of the casualties that could not be demobilized, nearly half of the wounded soldiers who could not move in the short term, and the future of Barry Niyah.
The scandal that was uncovered in front of the public spread at a speed that no one could have imagined. This is also because the casualties caused by Farzad are so severe that whenever it is mentioned, people inevitably ask why. Then the scandal was brought up again.
By the time the person concerned consciously wants to cover up the facts, it is already too late. In particular, the most lethal was the question raised by Viscount Nia: why did the eldest son of Viscount Nia reveal his fiancée's whereabouts to his younger brother.
Perhaps Barry Niah's position is still there, but his subordinates have suffered heavy casualties, and the estrangement of his boss and colleagues has made him understand the warmth and coldness of the world. Even the way his subordinates looked at him, something was not right. In a way, his younger brother Aka Nia did manage to teach his eldest brother a lesson, the kind that chops off a few pounds of meat.
However, the devastation caused by the box cut is not over. Perhaps from the moment Acre Nia dropped it, the battle had nothing to do with it. However, the magic weapon that was left behind was brought back to the thieves' guild in Abadan City by the greedy thief, and then there was a second commotion.
To say that the first time was because of the scandal of the nobles, which led to a series of killings; Then everything that happened in the Thieves' Guild was caused by a hidden weakness that was unscrupulously propagated everywhere by a certain immoral sword, which caused the subsequent changes.
Including the black data that threatens people, the location of the hidden treasure, the weakness of the martial arts, and the things that are most feared. The underground society that manages everyone with terror and the unknown, when all this is spread out in the sun, it means the end of that person. The special box cuts that strong lethality, when the fire is combined, who is willing not to use it; Even if you use it, you will pour the frieze.
For a sword without conscience, no good person holding it anyway is a bastard who is not sorry to die, so it has no scruples when it speaks.
Although it can establish a soul connection with the holder and read the holder's mind, it is limited to what is being thought about and cannot dig into the depths of memory. But here's the fun part, and when you hold it, you inevitably have a self-examination thought: 'What have I done?' In this case, is it really qualified to have a box cut? ’
As soon as such a thought comes to mind, it will be captured by this sword. Combined with a few key short questions, it's easy to remind people of what they've done, and at the same time be informed. This kind of method is a technique that has been studied from someone's psychology.
In the past, the box could only be connected through the heart, and the wielder's mind was bombarded with fatigue, forcing the other party to take the initiative to give up on himself. But now that he has the ability to communicate with the outside world, if he has any dissatisfaction, he will mumble loudly and directly break the sky. When people realized the danger of this weapon, and not just on the edge of the sword, there was no peace in the city of Abadan.
