Chapter 680: The Situation in the Eastern Emperor Continent
After eating, many villagers stayed in the courtyard of the village chief's house, because Chen Ling was blown away by the village chief again because of his words.
"I prefer a quieter environment. That's it.
Chen Ling is not a person who has to go to rest after eating, the reason why he killed so many spirit beasts for them is to find out if there is any difference between the structure of spirit beasts here and those in the Nine Realms Continent, and also to establish a good dialogue condition through this matter.
Now in this situation, there is no doubt that the village chief will answer all the questions he asks.
Chen Ling walked into the courtyard and asked the village chief to move a long bench.
The stars in the night sky are flickering, and the world illuminated by the faint light looks very dim, any world in the Nine Realms Continent is brighter than the night here, this darkness seems to be a huge house that is completely enclosed, and the only thing that provides light for the room is a few weak fireflies.
According to the time, it was only evening when they came to this village, and even then the sky was dark, could it be that the sunlight in the Eastern Emperor Continent had always been relatively weak? This is also the reason why their skin was pale!?
This question is too basic, normal people in the Eastern Emperor Continent will definitely not ask this kind of question, and even if they do, they will not ask a farmer, which will be very suspicious.
Chen Ling didn't want anyone to doubt their identity here.
"My lord, you drink tea, and I don't know if you can drink it or not. "The village chief made a pot of tea.
"Let it go, it's a good starry sky tonight. Sit down and talk?"
"Eh, okay, what do you want to talk about?" the village chief was flattered. Sitting next to Chen Ling was a little at a loss, he was now like other villagers, he felt that the person in front of him was God, and it was a supreme honor to be able to talk to God.
"Before I passed through your village, I saw a ruined city thousands of miles away, was there a city there?" Chen Ling said tentatively.
"Is it a city with only walls and no houses?"
Chen Ling nodded, it seemed that he knew something.
"Nobody knows exactly what that city does. It's been a long time ago, and the city before our village was there, listening to the legends that have been passed down from generation to generation by the elderly. It is said that a long time ago, it was a secret base established by the Emperor and a place for troops, but later it seems that because all the troops were transferred to other places, it was naturally abandoned. Of course, it's just a legend from generation to generation. No one knows what it is for. ”
"The place where the troops are stationed," Chen Ling continued to probe, "If you cantonment troops, you must need human resources, right? There are no densely populated big cities nearby, and it is certainly not cost-effective to send troops from major cities far away, and there is no corresponding supporting facilities there, and logistics supply is also a big problem, so it is definitely unrealistic to station troops there for a long time." ”
"The adults saw through it at a glance, and sure enough, the gods. The village chief said mysteriously: "Actually, everyone guesses that this should be a transit station for the emperor." Your Excellency, you should also know that the Emperor has a mysterious ability to transfer. Perhaps the Emperor simply got some people from other worlds for his own use. ”
After saying that, the village chief also wanted to show his extensive knowledge, and continued: " Some old scholars in the town will say that the foreign war in the Eastern Emperor Continent lasted for thousands of years, but in the early days of the war, there was no conscription in the Eastern Emperor Continent, but there was a large number of generals sent abroad, and at the same time, there were always rumors among the people who saw some people of different races gathering in large numbers in all corners of the continent, so everyone privately felt that this was the emperor used some means to get a large number of warriors from other worlds to serve the empire, and the earliest use of these abandoned cities was to transfer those warriors. ”
"These?"
"Yes, my lord, it seems that this is the first time you have seen this kind of city, I heard that this kind of similar city is located in many barren mountains and mountains on the mainland, basically from the early days of the continental war, and then all of them were deserted. ”
"It's really the first time I've seen this kind of city, it seems that I still don't have enough experience, I haven't paid much attention to the details of the war before, and now it seems that there are still many things worth playing, village chief, as far as you know, how many kinds of xenos appear on our continent? Is there only one or many?"
"I don't know how many kinds there are, as far as the stories I heard from old scholars say that only one kind of xenomorph came to our continent, the key is that these people disappeared quickly, and who knows how many kinds there are. ”
Could it be that only the people of the Nine Realms Mountain were brought to the Eastern Emperor Continent!?
This situation made Chen Ling very confused.
Since the Eastern Emperor was going to launch a full-scale war, wouldn't it be quite cost-effective to use his ability to control some more people and wage war against others!? Why did this kind of thing only appear in the Nine Realms Continent?
He took over the Nine Realms Continent in an effortless way, but he spent a lot of time and energy to wage war against other worlds, even if it was not someone from the Eastern Emperor Continent who was sent to the war, it was not cost-effective.
Don't......
The Eastern Emperor can't control everyone unlimitedly, or can he only use the ability to control people once? There may be no other explanation for this, if he is the Eastern Emperor, he can control anyone without restrictions, he definitely chooses to fight in this way, anyway, he has already controlled a Nine Realms Mountain, and then controls all the worlds that contain divine treasures, and he can even get the Heavenly Divine Treasures without even making any effort, there is no reason not to do so.
Since he didn't do it, it's certainly not that he didn't want to do it, but more often than not, he didn't have the ability to do it, whatever it was for him to stop doing it.
Letting the people of the Nine Realms Mountain attack other worlds for him, this move is already the best strategy that the Eastern Emperor can think of, and it is undoubtedly wise to analyze it from the perspective of decision-making, to the greatest extent to retain his own strength in the early stage of the most intense war, and at the same time use his own opponent to destroy his opponent, which is equivalent to consuming the strength of two opponents without moving.
No wonder he didn't kill the people of the Nine Realms Mountain, this chess move was indeed clever.
"Since the Great Emperor can get people from other worlds, why do you want to let our own people fight in the later stage?" Chen Ling continued to probe.
"Who knows, those cities have been used a long time ago, and they have never been used again, and all the people who were sent to the battlefield before have been consumed, so they can only send their own people to go, no way, there are too many places to conquer by the emperor, although the scale of the war is constantly decreasing, especially in the last hundred years, the war has been very small, but anyway, it is still fighting, alas, this is not a good thing for us ordinary people. The village chief said. (To be continued.) )
