"Deputy Commander. A young elven knight leaps off the back of the vulture: "The crowd that came out of Ulu City claimed to be scholars and students of Ulu Academy. ”

What the?

The top officers of the expeditionary force were stunned.

Before arriving at Ulu, he also thought that he might encounter frantic resistance, but ...... It seems that this resistance should only come from the faithful of the Holy See, the clergy, or the soldiers in charge of defending the city, and for these people, the expeditionary force asked themselves if the crescent in their hands was sharp enough. Right now...... What do scholars come out to do?

Most of the officers like Su Wen and others didn't know anything about what schools and scholars they were, and Chi Aotian and Qu Jianhong, who were born in the big aristocracy, knew this very well.

"What are they going to do?" Chi Aotian frowned slightly.

"This ......" the elven knight hesitated for a moment: "They are carrying slogans, and there are many words written on them, ...... 'Defend Ulu, the center of human culture', 'Bread not war', 'A hundred years of learning, a hundred years of struggle', 'NOWARFOROIL'...... There are many other languages, many of which are still ancient elven languages and ancient dwarf languages. ”

"OIL......" General Hussein looked suspicious: "The word OIL means the blood of the demon god in our desert people, is it ...... And they know that we used weapons of mass destruction oil in the war, and they protest because of that."

"OIL is a neologism that appeared during the First Great War of Gods and Demons, and is an abbreviation for a powerful god who fell from the sky, that is, the new theocracy - of course, the OIL of the desert clan may also be derived from here. In the middle of the Great War of Gods and Demons, some of the races of the Creation God Realm took refuge in the other gods, and in the later stages of the Great War of Gods and Demons, this part of the race was massacred by other angry races, and at that time, some pacifists launched the slogan NOWARFOROIL. Speaking of this, Elder Qingluo's face flushed slightly, this so-called pacifist was mainly the forest elves at that time.

Later, this ancient saying was again extended to mean: Don't start another war for personal gain. After hesitating for a moment, His Excellency the Elven Elder added: "These races that were lucky enough to escape were eventually exiled, and the place of exile is today's Fanos Continent. ”

Showing off in front of a forest elf elder is like a human swimming with a dolphin, or even more embarrassing, because dolphins don't use words to correct mistakes.

"That'...... What should I do now? Do you want to ......" Su Wen was a little dizzy, and the old soldier's right hand slashed in the air.

"Tower ......" Elder Qingluo's mouth had just opened, and he immediately realized his mistake and ate the next word into his stomach.

There was a cold scene among the senior officers, if the demon Tayan was still standing here, this little problem in front of him, it was estimated that he would pout his tail and find three or four ways in an instant. This birdman, so dead or alive, even if he wants to die in the end, he will die cleanly, and his grandmother's will not see anyone dead or dead under the noses of the two magisters.

"Let's go check it out. Chi Aotian whispered a word and led his mount to rush out. Su Wen, Qu Jianhong and other senior officers followed.

Outside Ulu City, at least 2,000 people had gathered, and at first glance, most of them were elderly, gray-haired, and their skin looked like withered bark. Only a very small percentage of them are young people, and the young faces are floating with the color of blood.

"Your Excellency, General Chi Aotian. An elderly man rushed out of the crowd, ignoring the bright scimitar in the hands of the soldier in front of Chi Aotian, and grabbed the reins of Chi Aotian's war horse.

"You know me?" How could anyone here know himself? Chi Aotian was strange for a while.

"Of course, sir. Your appearance has long been sung by bards. Sweat trickled down the elder's gray sideburns: "My lord, I'm Benjamin, a lecturer at Ulu Haigo University. ”

Qu Jianhong, Qingluo, and even Su Wen, a hillbilly from the Ice and Snow Continent, were moved at the same time, and they turned out to be Benjamin's mentors.

Benjamin, a professor at Ulu Haigo University, is proficient in five subjects: ancient mathematics, agriculture, divination, ancient elves, and ancient gods, and is the NO.1 in the three major disciplines of ancient mathematics, ancient elves, and ancient gods. After merging the three ancient disciplines, Benjamin's divination was so effective that his customers were basically governors and above - so the professor did not like to let divination affect his academic research.

Reading 10,000 books, it is better to travel thousands of miles, Professor Benjamin once traveled south to the Phanos continent and north to the ice and snow continent, during which he was also invited by Zhanlan Island to teach ancient gods in the outer college of Zhanlan Island. In terms of academic influence, it is unparalleled in the world.

In Eminole and the Ice and Snow Continent, skirmishes have been waged for nearly 150 years, so it has become common to emphasize military force over literature, and the major empires have even explicitly stipulated that only those who have held the position of marshal in the army can become candidates for prime minister. Of course, there are exceptions, such as Benjamin, at least three empires have invited Benjamin to the position of prime minister and national teacher, but unfortunately, Benjamin has shirked it under the pretext of studying.

Of course, Chi Aotian had also heard of Benjamin, and out of respect for the scholar, his expression eased a lot.

"My lord, I came to Ulu when I was 13 years old, where I studied and then taught. My lord, now all the defenders of the city are empty, and the clergy of the Holy See have left. My lord, are you going to occupy this city?"

"Occupation? Of course not. Chi Aotian shook his head slightly: "This city is not my end...... However, you can interpret me as the end of the city......"

After staying with Ta Yang for a long time, Ji Aotian couldn't avoid being contaminated with the way the god stick spoke.

Despite the mental preparations, there was a commotion in the crowd.

"Your Excellency, it is the Holy See that is at war with you, not this innocent city. Although the city is the headquarters of the Holy See, it is also the cultural center of the whole of humanity. In the city, there are a total of 37 libraries, large and small, with a total collection of nearly one million books, of which a considerable number of books are unique in the entire history of mankind. After thinking about it, the older scholar added: "In the hall of Haihu University, the highest university in Ulu City, there is still a handwritten annotation of The Art of War by Moe Ikeda. If you burn this city to the ground, General, you could become the greatest criminal in the entire history of mankind. ”

This scholar's words were definitely not paper tiger-style intimidation, at least, Qu Jianhong and Qingluo, who could understand this sentence, took a breath of cold air at the same time.

Fling dirt enough and some will stick.

In the Creation God Realm, even if you offend the powerful, contradict the emperor, and blaspheme the gods, you will only die at most. If you offend the world's readers, it will really leave a stench for 10,000 years and will not be able to turn over. The first emperor of the ages, who accepted the world as a unification, and the literary and martial arts were rare in ancient times, because he killed a few scholars who constantly provoked, and as a result, he was criticized by later generations of scholars and scholars, and finally became synonymous with a faint monarch and a tyrant -- a faint monarch can dominate the world? A tyrant can make millions of soldiers die?

It's just that such a threat doesn't have any effect on the protagonist. With Chi Aotian's temper, when did he care what others thought of him, even Lord Chi Hantong couldn't influence his thoughts, and most of the time it was counterproductive.

"So what?" Chi Aotian's stinky temper came up again, and he habitually began to provoke a war with his habitual rhetorical question: "A shameless city represents a shameless religion. Hmph, if it weren't for Ikeda Moe and the Black Dragon Knights fighting all the way here, would this city still exist until now? Before Scambrai's murder on the bloody night, why didn't anyone think of this? Now that he has come out to uphold justice, why didn't he come out to criticize the Holy See after the bloody night?

A few words, swallowing back all the words of all the knowledgeable people present. After the establishment of Ulu City, it has repeatedly encountered military disasters, not only the attack of the Desert Empire, but also the horse bandits galloping on the Flower Language Plain and the huge number of wild wolves have brought disaster to Ulu back then. If it weren't for Moe Ikeda's all-out fight on the outside and leaving enough soldiers to defend it, Ulu City would ...... There is absolutely no need to wait for Chi Aotian to draw the termination charm today.

The chief professor of the Uluhai University Hall had fully prepared the topic to persuade Chi Aotian, and he had been worried that Chi Aotian would not give him a chance to speak at all, but now he ...... Who would have thought that Chi Aotian, who was known for his killing, brutality, and cold-bloodedness, would speak as sharply.

"Your Excellency. If you can raise your noble hand and let go of this academic city, I am willing to follow you and become your retainer, use my knowledge to achieve your undefeated prestige, and use my pen to write an undefeated myth for you. ”

As soon as Benjamin's words landed, there was already an uproar around him.

There are two main systems of great noble retainers, one is the military commander system, and the other is the magician system, the former is to establish their own merits, and the latter is to get a lot of financial support on the road of magic exploration. Very few great nobles can invite a real scholar to be their guest, and no great nobleman would expect a scholar who is full of peach and plum to be loyal to him, let alone a scholar of Benjamin's level.

The senior officers of the expeditionary force were equally moved, what does it mean if there is a master of divination in the army? "Undefeated prestige", Professor Benjamin is definitely qualified to say such words.

"No need. The expression on Chi Aotian's face did not change at all: "Some things can't be substituted or exchanged at all. If the city is not destroyed, the Holy See will inevitably use the excuse of 'divine blessing' to strengthen the divine right and rule - the city of Ulu that will never fall. Only by completely destroying it, destroying the so-called supreme temple, can all the people see the incompetence of the Holy See, and can the foundation of the Holy See be fundamentally shaken. ”

The white-haired professor was silent, he couldn't deny that if the expeditionary force let Ulu City go this time, this matter would definitely be used by the Holy See to publicize it, and even serve as the most direct evidence that Chi Aotian didn't dare to offend the divine power of His Highness of Light.

"However, you have four hours to move out what you think is valuable. I can arrange a squadron to assist you. Chi Aotian added. Benjamin didn't know that Chi Aotian was already very polite to him - even if he stayed with Amy, Daqingshan, and Horns for a day, he wouldn't say so many explanations.

"Your Excellency...... In this Ulu City, there are more than 40 ancient buildings in the Magical Revival period alone, and there are many more large statues, any of these statues are priceless, 125 years ago, the Blue Island Magic Guild was willing to exchange a set of four magic rings and a legendary weapon from the divine realm for a white marble statue of Ulu Moyada, but His Majesty the Pope at that time politely refused...... However, these symbols of civilization were not destroyed by the savage scimitars of the desert iron riders, but they ...... If I knew this, I should have ...... in the first place," Benjamin said, tears streaming down his face.

"Needless to say, say more, and you'll carry less stuff. Chi Aotian was unmoved, and looked back and motioned to the guards behind him to flip the hourglass over.

Golden sand hissed down the funnel.

"When did the general become merciful?The children of the Chi family still have such virtues?" Su Wen pouted at Chi Aotian's back.

Qu Jianhong rolled his eyes wildly at Su Wenyi: "What Your Excellency sees now is the true demeanor of the Chi family's disciples, as for what Your Excellency saw before...... Another descendant of Chimen, it is said that ...... It's out ......."

Before he finished speaking, Chang Qing said coldly: "General Qu, everything you said today will become evidence in court." ”

As a retainer, Qu Jianhong has the obligation to maintain the majesty of the head of the family, but ...... If you offend Amy Haber, a powerful version of the evil demon king similar to the legendary gold and diamond, Qu Jianhong's face is already comparable to a freshly baked tofu brain.

"Alright, no more kidding. Chi Aotian looked at it coldly: "Order down, all forest elves will enter the city immediately to assist in screening items." Su Wen arranged for the allies from the Flower Language Plain to enter the city to assist in the transportation of all kinds of books. "The forest elves far surpass ordinary humans in terms of appreciation, both aesthetics and ancient art, and this arrangement is undoubtedly extremely appropriate.

After a moment of silence, Chi Aotian added: "Four hours later, the allied troops from the Desert Empire entered the city to cleanse it, and it lasted two hours, and all the items obtained were distributed uniformly by His Excellency Hussein. ”

As soon as the last sentence was finished, a cheer of surprise immediately erupted among the desert knights. Ulu City, which has enjoyed 300 years of peace, is believed to have accumulated a lot of wealth waiting for the desert soldiers to plunder, and it is said that the Holy See has even used pure gold and platinum to cast idols over the years, and this thing can buy the largest camel herd by taking one home at will. Wealth touches people's eyes, tear away the sacred cloak of religious wars, and what is left is not naked*?

This cheer woke up the young and old volunteers of Ulu City like a dream, and they finally guessed who the group of men with concave eyes and narrow eyebrows in front of them were. The 300-year-old nightmare and the things that these men's ancestors did on the prairie made the young and old volunteers truly feel for the first time that every inch of time is hard to buy.
