620 What has it to do with you to save you?
The dark tide crashes against the shore, the original beach has been flooded, the sun is not visible under the red rain, and naturally there are no beautiful women in bikinis basking in the sun.
From the top of the hill, the whole sea exudes a dangerous aura.
Today, the sea has become the enemy of mankind.
Two hours after the end of the joint meeting, representatives of more than a dozen top powers, including Lady Laurent, Beowulf, General Ye Zhan, Henkel, and Angers, gathered on the top of a hill near Rome.
The information revealed by Yuan Zhisheng is indeed a glimmer of life, but it is equivalent to entrusting the fate to the hands of the Dragon King, and the small and medium-sized forces have no other choice but to do so, but these large forces cannot make decisions so simply.
Leaving aside the hatred that humans and dragons have accumulated over the past 10,000 years, even if we don't consider this, there is no confirmation of whether the Dragon King is really willing to accept the salvation of humans, just listening to the two mouths of the Night's Watch and Gen Zhisheng.
That's why they're standing here at this moment.
Not to oppose the lackey route, but to confirm whether the lackey route is reliable and whether it can get the result you want - the continuation of civilization.
And their current leader is naturally the most reliable and least likely to become the dragon king's lackey, Ange.
So—
"Ange, you have to calm down, don't turn against the dragon king because of hatred later!"
Beowulf pressed Ange's shoulder, his burly body and deep voice said lines that did not fit his image at all, but he said it sincerely at the moment.
Beowulf was not qualified to stand here with his strength alone, but everyone still pulled him over at the suggestion of the Lady Laurent, not to borrow his force, but to let him persuade Angers well.
It is true that the Beowulf family has always been a radical dragon-slayer, but the radical faction also depends on who they are compared to.
As can be seen from the "God's Horn" incident, they are not crazy people who are willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of slaying dragons.
And now, they are afraid that Ange will become such a madman.
Even the radicals were afraid that he was too radical, and this was the situation and prestige of Angers today.
Contrary to the hot Night's Watch today, Ange, who would never collude with the Dragon King, is not welcomed by the surrender faction at the moment, even if it is indeed Ange's questioning that makes the surrender route clear, but he is really alone and cannot bring them benefits and hope like the Night's Watch. Even because of his reputation for slaying dragons, many surrendering factions did not dare to approach him, for fear that they would be liquidated by the dragon king, who had not yet written a word of eight characters.
However, none of the major powers is short-sighted enough to give Angers a cold shoulder, and he is still the most trusted person by all forces.
It's better to say that after this incident, he is more trustworthy.
"Yes! Ange, while we hope that it is up to you to determine the Dragon King's intentions, our purpose is to perpetuate rather than destroy. I know it's hard for you, but please exercise some restraint today. ”
After Beowulf's radical persuasion, Elisabeth Laurent's moderate persuasion also began.
Under the threat of the apocalypse, the human-dominated forces have no historical baggage and have joined the ranks of involution, and the mixed-race forces are much more cautious because they know the dragon king better.
However, regardless of caution or not, in the face of a doomsday-level crisis, even the forces represented by the most suspicious people present have already joined the ranks of the involution, and have hung a list of excellent lackeys from the night watch.
They are not 100% sure whether they want to be lackeys or not, but that does not prevent them from taking the top position in the lackey rankings in advance.
When faced with a crisis, human organizations tend to split into different wills like now, and they will try all feasible routes until they succeed in getting through the crisis.
The involution competition is on the list of lackeys for the continuation of civilization, and the current suspicion and desire to confirm whether the route is effective are also for the continuation of civilization.
The words of the Lady of Laurent were unanimously agreed by all.
Even Henkel, an old enemy, couldn't help but speak to appease Ange.
"Finally, that old cowboy promised to try to contact the Dragon King, maybe this is our only chance, I beg you, you must not act impulsively!"
They wanted Ange to continue to use his sharp judgment to analyze the Dragonlord's true thoughts, but they didn't want Ange to be so entrapped by hatred that he deliberately sabotaged the meeting and deprived them of their only hope.
Therefore, Ange's answer at this moment is very important.
If he still can't restrain his hatred and insists on being an enemy of the Dragon King Su Mo, then they can only invite Ange out of here before the Dragon King Su Mo arrives.
“……”
Seeing the old adversaries who had been so tough and refused to say a soft word even in the face of the danger of death, now so jerky and trying so hard to soften the tone of their words to themselves, Ange looked strange, and felt a strange pleasure in his heart.
Gee! It turns out that these guys can also put down their bodies!
Is Su Mo so deterrent to them?
If the situation didn't allow it, he really wanted to use Su Mo's tiger skin to scare these old friends and appreciate the way they had to make compromises.
It's a pity that he knows that at this critical moment, if he makes them too uneasy, these people, including the niece who supports him the most, will probably be in favor of throwing him out, so as not to anger the dragon king Su Mo.
In this case, the effectiveness of their plans will be reduced.
Thinking so, Ange shook his head lazily.
"Don't worry! Although I want to slay dragons, I am not a madman who would rather destroy the entire human race for this, and we don't have the weapons to defeat the dragon king now, how can I possibly do it to the dragon king? ”
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but glance at Fingal, who was in charge of security outside the pavilion.
"Is what he said true?"
"Hmmm! In order to avoid the rebellion of the principal of Angers...... I mean go alone, under the resolution of the school board, Principal Ange's authority over Norma has been temporarily suspended, so don't worry, Principal Ange doesn't have the ability to make a move against the Dragon King Su Mo. ”
"That's good, with the character of an old thief like Ange, he won't settle accounts unprepared."
Henkel breathed a sigh of relief.
As Ange's nemesis, he knew this opponent very well, and without a dagger that killed him, this assassin would not rush into attack, even if there was any hostility.
The others were finally reassured.
Seeing the appearance of everyone, Ange showed a helpless expression.
"As for guarding against me to such an extent? Why don't you go and guard against the Dragon King? ”
"Regardless of whether we have the ability to guard against the Dragon King, the Dragon King will kill us at most if he is angry, and if you go berserk, you may destroy the whole world."
Henkel gives such a reason.
The opportunity to communicate with the Dragon King is extremely precious, but the tyranny of the Dragon King is also well known, in fact, everyone present is ready to die, so the representatives they sent are all middle-aged and elderly.
Enough hope to save the world is worth putting their lives at risk.
As for Elisabeth Laurent, as the only young woman, she is indeed an exception, because she is responsible for carrying the beauty plan.
"Before the negotiations even began, it was like I was some kind of mortal sinner."
Ange shook his head again, reassuring everyone.
"Don't worry, I won't make a move on the Dragon King Su Mo, after all, apart from him, there is no other hope for the human race. In addition to that, I'm also curious, why would he want to save humanity? ”
In the face of Ange's question, which was finally full of real feelings, others also resonated.
Yes, why did the Dragon King Su Mo save them?
This is also the news that mankind wants to know most nowadays, whether it is a capitulator or a skeptic, they want to get the answer to this question.
Even if you are a lackey, you have to know whether your duty is to watch the door or sell cuteness, right?
If Su Mo has a need for them, it can make them feel at ease, whether it is beauty or gold, they are willing to meet it.
Only by confirming their own value can they gain peace of mind and be sure that they will not be destroyed casually.
If Su Mo had no desires or desires, they would be uneasy, worried about whether Su Mo wanted to trick them somewhere and swallow them in one gulp.
In this atmosphere full of worries, both wanting to confirm the Dragon King's reasons for accepting them, but also worrying about angering the Dragon King.
Suddenly, a young man's voice rang out from behind them.
"Why do you care about the answer to this question about saving humanity?"
The sudden sound alerted everyone, and everyone turned their heads one after another, and immediately saw the two people who appeared behind them at some point.
Alchemy Kingdom, Space Opening!
Even if you don't look at the night watchman with a flattering posture next to the young man, just by this posture with black hair and black eyes, and a perfect score for his appearance, everyone can immediately judge his identity.
"Dragon King Su Mo?"
"Your Majesty Su Momian?!"
"Supreme!"
“……”
After a moment of panic, everyone saluted in their own ways.
Regardless of whether they have a grudge against the dragon clan or not, when they face the true supreme and the ultimate of the world, they have to show the most basic respect.
After the salute, everyone looked at the Night's Watch and Ange, they knew that they could contact the Dragon King, but they didn't expect this Supreme to really show up so easily.
Although Su Mo seemed to be very talkative, under the pressure of human life and death, no one dared to speak at will.
Su Mo had completely restrained Long Wei, and his eyes did not contain the slightest anger, but the invisible pressure still filled the entire mountain range, and even Beowulf, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, felt a little breathless.
Everyone understands that this is the greatest turning point in human history, and that the rise and fall of civilizations lies here.
After a short silence, the first to resist this invisible pressure and dare to answer the supreme's question was the dragon-slaying hero Ange, who was pinned on by everyone.
"We really care about this, you don't have a reason to save us humans, I wonder if Su Mo can solve the puzzle?"
Ange's attitude of neither humility nor arrogance made everyone quite worried, but seeing that Su Mo didn't seem to be angry, they were indeed relieved. Thankfully, Ange wasn't crazy to that extent.
Under the tense gaze of everyone, Su Mo smiled lightly.
"Why, it doesn't seem to be!"
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but tremble in their hearts, and Lady Laurent's face turned pale on the spot.
Finished! Asking this question, shouldn't it have reminded the Dragon King Su Mo that it didn't seem to be beneficial, and then he didn't want to save the human race, right?
In that case, they will become sinners through the ages!
Looking at everyone's ever-changing expressions, Su Mo continued to speak slowly.
"I did not come to save humanity, but to defeat the enemy. Red Rain, Beasts, Kuroshio, and finally Nidhogg, all that stands in my way, will be destroyed by me. As for rescuing you, it's just a matter of doing it. ”
At this, he muttered for two seconds, and then said in a nonchalant tone.
"If there's any reason for that, that's all I'm going to say to you—"
After a pause, Su Mo smiled gently and indifferently at them.
"What does it have to do with you to save you?"
“……”
There was a dead silence in the audience, and everyone's bodies couldn't stop trembling.
Lady Laurent's eyes widened, and she finally understood what Su Mo meant, and why Su Mo was doing something to save the world, but her expression was as indifferent as a god.
Or rather, the other party is a god, and there is no special reason to want to save them.
It's like a child who sometimes scalds an ant's nest with boiling water, and sometimes throws candy at an ant's nest, these actions are not for blessings or curses, and there is no need for any reason, just that the other party wants to do it.
Undoubtedly, this is not the answer they want.
But in the same way, they can't refuse this answer.
Both curses and bounties are manifestations of the will of the gods, and humans are now in no position to refuse.
After a long silence, the Lady of Laurent bowed her head in reply.
"Yes!"
In any case, as long as the other party does not change his mind, there is still a chance for humanity to survive.
At least in the face of the olive branch in front of them, they are not qualified to refuse.
Others were silent in acceptance.
Su Mo's willingness to show this attitude at least shows that the salvation itself is not a hoax.
Of course, this also means that they have not been protected by the Dragon King, and the crisis will probably still be on their own.
Afterwards, the men asked very respectfully about Doomsday and Nidhogg.
After Su Mo gave the basic answer, they chose to retire with a very good look.
And before everyone left, Su Mo suddenly stopped them and added.
"By the way, I suddenly remembered that I am more interested in human scientific research, and if there are results in this area, it can be exchanged for my protection."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and then they showed a surprised expression.
Willing to let them study science, that is, the dragon king Su Mo will not be afraid of or prevent the development of human civilization? All right!
After thanking them, they happily prepared to leave.
Then.
"Ange stays."
Su Mo's last sentence made everyone look at Ange with mixed eyes of worry or fear.
But no one dared to disobey the words of the Supreme, and they left after leaving a look of "begging for more blessings" and "please don't talk nonsense".
In the end, in the small pavilion, only Su Mo, Ange, the Night Watchman, and Fingal remained.
After the backs of the others disappeared, Su Mo opened the soundproof barrier, and after Fingal patiently checked and ruled out all possible eavesdropping equipment, the night watchman breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the stone bench.
Then, immediately start slapping on the back.
"Lord Su Mo is really kind-hearted, it's like Jesus is alive! Not only is he willing to help humanity get through the apocalypse, but he also deliberately arranged so many links to avoid them from leaking, not to mention me, even if Ange doesn't have the patience! ”
Hearing this, Ange, who was never in the same league as the Dragon King on the side, also nodded, and had to express his admiration.
"If it were me, I would let humans take it upon themselves after pointing out the way of life, and I would never be able to achieve such far-reaching intentions as Su Momian."
Hearing the words of the two, Fingal on the side was stunned.
It is common for night watchmen to pat horses, but it is very uncommon for Ange to pat horses, even in the face of Su Mo, Ange's attitude has always been neither humble nor arrogant, and he has never been as impressed as he is now.
He immediately scratched his head and wondered.
"What's going on? This kind of atmosphere that only I don't understand? ”
"Lord Su Mo is willing to save the world, naturally he is kind-hearted, yes, what does it mean to be far-reaching, isn't Lord Su Mo's attitude towards them very cold?"
Seeing that this apprentice had just the right question, the night watchman immediately shook his spirits and replied.
"You don't understand that! Lord Su Mo's cold attitude towards them is to maintain their sense of crisis and prevent human civilization from falling and corrupting because of being sheltered! ”
"The reason why Lord Su Mo wants to use tricks and tricks on them is also to prevent them from making wrong choices when they are not calm!"
"It is a great mercy for the strong to deliberately guide the weak not to offend themselves, lest they have to be eliminated!"
After saying this, when Fingal felt that it was a bit over-interpreted, and the sycophants were too hard, so that he didn't have time to praise them, Su Mo waved his hand in disgust.
"Enough! Forming a group to make a sycophant, right? I don't have time to listen to this. ”
Hearing him say this, the night watchman smiled and said embarrassedly.
"I'm sorry, but if it weren't for appeasement to these guys, I wouldn't have bothered your forging."
When he contacted Su Mo, Su Mo seemed to be forging something, and he was very interested in it, but he didn't ask.
After all, that could involve a doomsday secret.
"It doesn't matter."
Su Mo shook his head and looked at the sea not far away.
With a wave of his hand, a thunder and lightning knife several kilometers long condensed in the clouds, slashing into the herd of beasts that had just been bred in the center of the Mediterranean Sea dozens of kilometers away.
"I would have needed to come out every once in a while to say hi to Nidhogg and reassure him."
As he spoke, a silver dragon swept by not far away, and after saying hello to Su Mo, it was rare that he did not come over to rub it, but ran directly to the next battlefield.
"Otherwise, I'm afraid the current Eri clothes won't be able to resist the global herd!"
When he said this, Su Mo's eyes were also a lot more serious.
Two days ago, Eri was able to beat the herd, and all the divine beasts together were not enough for her to fight, and the battle was killed in seconds.
But now, two days later, under Nidhogg's dedicated incubation, the beast herd has evolved to a very difficult level, and even the power of the dragon body white king is difficult to contain the beast herd in time.
From time to time, Su Mo needs to be needed, or Zero brings Su Mo's mask to help.
The ultimate purpose of the beast herd is to trap Su Mo in the earth, as long as Su Mo keeps appearing, Nidhogg will not panic, once he does not appear for a few hours, Nidhogg will intensify the offensive.
At this rate of evolution, I'm afraid that by tomorrow, it will be the time when the Dragon Body Black King will have to participate in the war.
Hearing Su Mo say this, Fingal on the side immediately said with relief.
"Didn't Lord Su Mo say that tomorrow he would be able to transfer all mankind? By then, you won't have to worry about the herd and the Kuroshio, and you'll be a lot less stressed, right? ”
Hearing this, there was no need for Su Mo to speak, and the night watchman on the side shook his head.
"The Nibelungen can avoid the Kuroshio, but not necessarily the herd."
"Other than that, even now, I can't imagine what kind of Nibelungen it would take to be so broad that it can accommodate all the people in the world."
As he spoke, he gave Su Mo a curious look.
It's inconvenient to ask, Nibelungen should be no problem, Su Mo also said before that the way to deal with the black tide cannot be hidden.
Seeing that the three of them seemed to be very curious, Su Mo smiled slightly, but he had sold it.
"Instead of explaining dryly now, why don't you wait for tomorrow to feel it for yourself?"
Everyone has nothing to do.
It didn't take long for the silver dragon to go and return, and it seemed that it had completely solved the beast herd in the Mediterranean, and then it had the time to turn back to Su Mo.
In order to comfort the Eri Yi who had been sleepless for two days and two nights, Su Mo immediately said goodbye to everyone, and a space shifted and stood on the back of the silver dragon's neck.
The figures of a man and a dragon immediately disappeared into the sky, seemingly heading in the direction of the Arctic Ocean.
In the quiet little pavilion, only the last three remained.
Looking at their completely disappeared backs, Ange looked at the Night's Watch and spoke suddenly.
"How?"
"How?"
In the face of Angers, the night watchman was naturally unceremonious.
If others knew that the two of them, who were supposed to be incompatible, were in fact in a group, most of them would be suspicious of their ears.
"I asked me how much I looked?"
Ange said with a smile.
"Although he is indeed different from Menek and does not like to slay dragons, but after a big circle, my eyesight is still correct, Su Mo is indeed the same person as Menek."
"What kind of person is that?"
Fingal interjected curiously.
"People who have the power to change the world."
Ange replied patiently, his eyes bright and timeless.
"Sometimes, we call it a hero."
His choice was correct after all, although the process was different from what he thought, and his position was completely misplaced, but there was no problem with the conclusion, Su Mo was indeed a hero who could end the troubled times.
"Heroes......
Chewing on the term, a hint of drunkenness flashed in the Night's Watchman's eyes, and he raised an eyebrow at Ange.
"Do you think that by saying this, you will be able to clear the stain that you looked away and regarded the Dragon King as a dragon slayer hero?"
“……”
Ange choked.
"Summer insects can't talk about ice!"
"Hehe~ I don't have this kind of black history, and I don't have the excellent qualifications to be regarded as a mother by two male dragon kings like you."
“……”
Ange, who is full of black history, chose to shut up.
PS: I think the change in the attitude of human forces is quite crucial, many people say water, but I think I can't help but write, I thought about it, and simply wrote it in one breath and sent it out. The human plot is almost over here, and the next thing is that Miss Natsumi attacks in the form of the myth of the earthly python.
