Chapter 207: In the Name of Hope
"Neo, I never expected that today's start would be so tortuous and intense, Prince Rodland and my second son have told me about your situation, but your performance today still greatly exceeded my expectations."
At this time, only the Duke and Neo were left in the big tent, Neo knew that the Duke must have something more important to tell him, and after hearing the Duke's words, Neo just smiled.
Then the Duke continued: "Well, don't talk about that. Sit down,"
Duke Chankadolig stretched out his hand to let Neo sit down, his expression was straight, and then he said: "Neo, today, Her Royal Highness the Ice and Snow Goddess appeared to exorcise the Demon Shadow, although it was only a short moment, but it still revealed a lot of information. ”
"There is a special message transmission in the fortress, His Majesty Ferdirando can receive our situation here at the same time, Your Majesty must know what happened today at this time, I believe that early tomorrow morning, Your Majesty will have new instructions coming."
The Duke paused for a moment, then continued, "Neo, the shadow that appears today has never appeared in previous wars,"
"In our previous understanding, it is impossible for such a powerful demon to pass through the spatial barrier and appear on the battlefield."
"Even if it's just its projection, it shouldn't appear, with the strength of the Demon Shadow, its projection is enough to kill all of us."
"And the arrival of the goddess is so timely, so does it mean that the gods in the heavens are also paying attention to the situation of our mortal war? Or is it just because you, the patron, are here? ”
"From the mouth of the goddess, I deduce that the gods of light must have made some pact with the demons of the abyss, what are these pact? I think that's a concern for everybody. ”
"Also, Her Highness the Goddess called out the scythe, I think this should be the name of the Shadow of the Shadow, or part of the title, what role does this Shadow of the Lady of the Scythe play in this war? Where does it stand among the Abyssal Demons? ”
"And the tower of arrogance spoken by the goddess, we have heard this name for the first time."
"What is the Tower of Pride? Where is it located? What's the situation inside the tower? We don't know any of this. ”
"Moreover, judging from today's situation, Her Highness the Goddess is very familiar with the Demon Shadow, then we can infer that the Celestial Gods and the Abyssal Demons have intersected much more than we imagined,"
"No matter what kind of intersection there is between gods and demons, they must know more about the demons of the abyss than we mortals."
"All these questions, Neo, can only be asked to Her Highness the Goddess through you."
"I heard Cliff Sanben say that after this war, in addition to going to Qinglan City to meet Your Majesty, you also have to go to the Holy Court of Light to meet the Pope."
"I think that when the time comes, His Holiness the Pope will definitely raise this matter with you."
"The Holy Sect of Light also knows more about the abyss than we do, and in the ranking of the Holy Sect of Light, your status is second only to the Pope, so they won't hide it from you."
The Duke paused again when he said this, and the Duke looked into Neo's eyes and said, "Neo, the discord between the north and the south of my Storm Empire is just a small scabies, and the Abyss Demon is our henchman. ”
"Neo, our war with the Abyss Demon has actually always been at a disadvantage, from the first invasion of the Demon tens of thousands of years ago to the present, we have always been on passive defense, and the war has only spread in our land,"
"Although we have also entered the abyss of demons, it is only the adventurous behavior of a very small number of cultivators, and truly large-scale wars only take place in our territory."
"To put it bluntly, they are the only ones who fight us, and we have never invaded their territory, alas...
The Duke sighed, "On our continent, although there are exchanges between the major races, the in-depth information has been retained by each of them. The territory of our human race is far less than that of the Warcraft Forest, and we have even less information. In the past few years, the interval between wars has become shorter and shorter, and many people of insight believe that the demons will soon invade in a big way."
When the Duke said this, he also looked worried, "The top leaders of our three empires also believe that a full-scale war is coming. Hey~~,"
"But after so many years, we Terrans only know that demons come from another cosmic plane, but how did they break the barriers of the plane? We don't know if we will attack from where on our continent. ”
"Many people don't know that the high-level leaders of the three empires have already held many consultations on this matter, but because they have too little information, they can't discuss a solution."
"Neo, as the patron of the Ice and Snow Goddess, you have also felt the protection of the Goddess today, and you have a deep relationship with the Shadow Demon Leopard Clan, and they also have a lot of information that we don't know,"
"So, Lord Neo, only you have the possibility to inquire more about it, whether it is for the sake of the Frost Moon Lord, the Storm Empire, or the safety of the Terrans, you must do everything you can to clarify these doubts! The old man is here to please! With that, the Duke bowed deeply to Neo.
Neo hurriedly picked up the Duke and said solemnly: "Lord Duke, I will definitely do my best to find out about this matter!" ”
The Duke looked at Neo for a while and said, "Neo, although I am now the leader of the Northland Nobles, I have a very strong premonition that it will not be long before you replace me and become the new leader of my Northland Nobles Alliance. ”
When Neo heard the duke say this, he quickly stood up and wanted to speak, but was blocked by the duke.
The Duke waved his hand and continued: "Listen to me, I have been in the sea all my life, and my family history is almost as long as the history of the Rinfeng Empire, and several of my ancestors have reached the status I am now. ”
"It can be said that the cornerstone and inheritance of the empire are continued by a family like mine, and a family like mine and the empire are truly inseparable from the glory and disgrace, and the fate of the empire is the fate of my family."
"Such a deep accumulation is enough that I don't have to worry about my juniors."
"So, I'm not worried about you replacing me at all, I'm very happy to have a young man as powerful as you to lead the nobles of the Northlands."
"Neo, although you and I have just met, I am much older than you, I have read countless people in my life, and I have said so much to you tonight because I have seen so many young juniors, and no one can be worthy of my trust, until you appear, Neo, I believe I will not be mistaken!"
Duke Chankadolrig looked at Neo and there seemed to be a fire of hope burning in his eyes.
