Chapter 50: Useless Ants
Chapter 50: Useless Ants
Divicent was not in a hurry, slowing down and waiting for an answer.
After a few seconds of contemplation, I finally had an insight—
"Report to the emperor, I have been with Prince Wu for so long, and I understand very well the reason for your choice, if it is up to me to choose, I will definitely choose Prince Wu to become the next emperor of Aynke."
Grossar's eyes were firm, and his tone was sonorous and powerful, without any hesitation.
"I see, but my main concern is whether it will be too much of a burden for Wu, or whether I will shift my responsibility to him."
"This ......"
Grossar, who wanted to stop talking, aroused Diesent's curiosity, and curiously asked Grossar.
"Let's be straight, say what you think, although I am good at handling state affairs, I am not good at treating my family."
After thinking for a while, Grossar took a deep breath and closed his eyes, as if he was brewing something.
"Your Majesty, I think from my father's point of view, you still don't have enough time with him, and you have entrusted him with such a heavy responsibility, presumably Prince Wu will feel very bad."
Grossar finished speaking in one breath, and after exhaling several times, he regained the firmness of his eyes, and did not regret his words in the slightest.
"You mean...... Isn't the relationship between me and Wu qualified to be called father and son? ”
"Pardon the little rudeness, but yes. Although you have conceded to Prince Wu everywhere and satisfied any of his demands, these things are just superficial substances. The little one thinks that the most lacking thing between you and the prince is 'love', which is not something that can be condensed in an instant, but accumulates over time. ”
"Over time...... Is it? Indeed, my relationship with my children is really short-lived, and I am not a father. ”
Democent muttered in a whisper, silently pondering Grossal's words.
Grossar is not a veteran who has been in Disenter for decades, although there is no excessive restraint and compliment, the sense of language is still full of respect, listening to the conversation between friends, and still feeling the relationship between master and servant.
After an in-depth conversation, the two unconsciously walked to the door of the exchange hall.
The few untended flowers in the vicinity have withered, and the green grass on the ground is not naturally growing, but a magus who can perform "wood magic" has been specially hired to make the landscape a little more visible.
"Your Majesty, Rong Xiao's first report to the ambassador in the embassy."
"Yes."
Discent responded with a nod.
With a deep bow, Grossar pushed open the heavy wooden door and strode into the exchange hall.
Perhaps Grossa was a little overweight, and as soon as he stepped into the exchange hall, he made a "squeak" sound from the rotten wooden floor, and the "crackling" sound of the wood about to break could be faintly heard.
As soon as the door was opened, a foul smell of wine poured into Grossar's nostrils, and the lights on the tables had long since been extinguished, and the light was insufficient to make it impossible to see the environment, and could only barely see the light from the iron windows on both sides of the main entrance.
I saw that the square iron tables were full of all kinds of wine glasses and wine bottles, and on the table were the ambassadors who were sleeping soundly, and even more exaggerated, lying directly on the ground, holding the wine bottles, and the deafening snoring sound penetrated Grossal's eardrums.
Grossar cautiously walked past the hangover crowd and approached the small bar in front of him.
The only sober person here is the man standing in front of the bar, silently wiping the glass alone-
- Looks old with a tall off-white punk head and a gray-white goatee of the same color as his hair. There is a round and large black mole between the eyebrows, and the depressed eyes are a little out of proportion to the age of nearly half a hundred.
Wearing a simple leather gray coat, the upper body is strangely tied tightly by heavy "iron chains", looking like a sinner who has been guilty of pleading. In fact, it was not a chain to tie him, but a "big coffin" to bind the man's back.
The coffin is almost the same height as the man, and the width also matches the width of the man's shoulders. Carved with several unknown patterns and ancient characters from a certain era, the carvings engraved on the old coffin exude a faint fragrance, but you will feel dizzy after smelling it for a long time, and in addition, the coffin is like a freezer, faintly emitting a cold air visible to the naked eye.
The man focused on wiping the glass, not noticing Grossal's arrival.
With such an indifferent reaction, Grossar did not feel angry or frustrated. On the contrary, the first time I saw the man, it was like seeing an old friend, and I greeted him warmly without concealment.
"Long time no see, Phelomar, is this still the same?"
Fellomar just nodded silently, his eyes still wiping his glass.
Seeing that the glass was no longer bright, Grossar tapped him on the shoulder to attract his attention.
"Hey, Phelomar, the emperor is here himself, you tell everyone to hurry up."
Hearing the emperor driving in person, Fellomar still didn't react much, he just put down the wine glass in his hand and nodded his head gently, indicating that he had heard Grossar's reminder.
But he only nodded, and still did not respond.
"Ah...... You tell everyone to hurry up and get dressed, and in a minute I will invite the emperor in. ”
Grossar finally felt a little embarrassed in his cold response.
Filomar - this man with a mysterious and treacherous aura of dispersion is a complete freak in Grossar's eyes. In the kingdom of Eynck, he is one of the best "scientists". He has been fascinated by biological experiments for many years, and has even developed magic that transcends life and death, which he calls "spells".
It is not difficult to imagine that the so-called spell has something to do with the coffin behind him.
At the same time, Fallomar is also an important combat force in the kingdom - the famous Magister Regiment of the Kingdom of Aynk, which is divided into nine seats according to its characteristics, among which, the second seat codenamed "Final" is the man in front of him.
So why is such an important person in charge of being stationed in the exchange hall of the ministers of various countries?
Philomar is proficient in the cultures and languages of various countries, and his communication skills are by no means the lifeless appearance he is now, of course, Divicent also sees his own strong strength and illustrious prestige, and takes advantage of the situation to suppress the chaos of other ministers, hoping to achieve "soft and hard" means through such a representative figure.
So in Grossar's eyes, Fellomar is such a strange character.
And what about in the eyes of Phelomar? Grossar as a colleague, Divint as the master, and the kingdom of Aynke, who gave birth to himself, what do these things represent in the eyes of this expressionless man?
I'm afraid only he knows.
July 17, 1927, 11:52 p.m., Inside the village of Tergasna
I'm afraid Wu never thought that he would also have a day when he would be invincible.
The power of gluttony was beyond his imagination, and at the same time, it also provoked the desire in his heart—the greed for greater power.
Although it was not his own will, Wu himself did not deny this desire.
Because even he doesn't understand what he is now, and what kind of mood he should hold to live.
Longing, coldness, and fear are intertwined in deep eyes.
At least in terms of the current Wu, he has not been brave enough to look directly at this power.
At the same time, if you zoom out and look at it again, you will be greeted by a scene that is beyond the norm.
Under the light of the white moonlight, the green grassland was covered with bright red blood, and there were large pieces of monster remains left after the corpses were broken into thousands of pieces.
There are all mid-level monsters as far as the eye can see, and according to the scale of the wreckage, the number of monsters that originally entrenched in this grassland is probably close to a hundred, or even exceeded.
Ideally, if such a large number of monsters were to be annihilated in a short period of time, I am afraid that a mid-to-upper-sized Magister would be needed, but this is only a conservative estimate of military strength.
In practice, there may also be a need for auxiliary regiments and officers in the field command.
But apparently there is not half an army here.
He's the only one.
Executing torture with gluttonous power, the executor is a Wu who has never had experience in using magic.
There was not even a trace of sweat left, and Wu's expression was relaxed and freehand. There is nothing to do, just a snap of a finger, and everything will be extinguished - in the current situation, this kind of thing is not impossible.
There was not even a bit of flesh left, only the bone meal that seemed to have been crushed back and forth tens of thousands of times, and the gray smoke caused by the bombardment of the surroundings with powerful magic.
If you want to use an idiom to describe it, it should be "no piece of armor is left".
Annihilation without mercy, one second it is still a riot scene, the next second it is an unstoppable dead silence.
This dead silence comes from the indescribable joy and insatiable longing in the heart of Wu, the only survivor of the grassland. But compared to the satisfaction of desire, there are more important things worth thinking about at the moment-
His contemplative feet slowly walked through the bright red land, as if the massacre just now did not exist, calm and calm.
Ignoring this terrifying scene, Wu was thinking.
The index finger and thumb of his right hand rubbed their chin against each other, and his gaze calmly swept over the remains of the monster group. The image looks very ordinary, just a pensive man looking around at the wreckage of the war in the moonlight.
But if it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that this would not be the case.
At this moment, a slender figure suddenly broke into Wu's sight.
Dressed in a dark and graceful suit, he looked luxurious and exquisite, but the owner did not care about the dirt and dirt, but knelt in front of Wu in respect—eyes full of wisdom were looking up at the supreme lord in front of him.
It was Kurt—the meeting with Wu who obeyed orders.
Wu had been looking around the scene for an hour in order to wait for Kurt's arrival, and these remains were also traces of the battle from an hour earlier.
For this hour's wait, Wu did not show any impatience at all, and was as calm as usual.
An hour earlier, Wu had sent Kurt to investigate the origin of the monsters. Now, too, is the time for the harvest of intelligence.
Puzzled eyes quickly fell on Kurt, expecting Kurt's report.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting so long!"
"It doesn't matter. It's you—you shouldn't have come back to meet me empty-handed, right? ”
"Yes! Following the aura of the monster and the remnants of the element, the small one has traced the location of the enemy according to your requirements. ”
"Are you referring to the enemy's base camp?"
"According to the breath content of the location, I'm afraid it's just as you guessed."
"If so, everything will be fine."
Emotionless, Wu is smiling as she expresses her satisfaction with Kurt's outcome.
Such a smile is undoubtedly the most valuable compliment for the loyal Kurt.
"Seeing that you are so happy, the little ones are sincerely happy for you! So what are you going to do next? ”
"Well, let's go! I'd like to see what kind of people are behind the scenes who can exert such power. ”
"What do you mean...... Are you going to show mercy? ”
"It's not merciful, but I still hope that peace talks can be used as a premise."
"Forgive me for asking questions again."
"Yes, I'll give permission."
"Thank you very much, sir. If the other party does not cherish the kindness you have given and tries to harm your dragon body, what should the little one do at that time? ”
"En-this is indeed possible, if the development is not as expected, take 'capture alive' as the premise, and subdue the other party!"
"I understand it in the child! You are a man of fear and kindness. ”
The gaze of no more adoration could be dedicated to the supreme Wu - but Wu did not accept this admiration.
Ignoring Kurt's admiring gaze, he turned to the distant horizon - that is, the new battlefield.
"God" is a rather vague term in the human world.
Unreal, mysterious, untouchable, treacherous, powerful...... Too many adjectives can wrap up the existence of God.
It may be difficult to have a day of complete understanding.
Of course, such an opportunity fell to a certain cowardly boy -
For Wu, who doesn't like to fight, the god is a very powerful creature.
Although he had not witnessed the existence of God, in his eyes, God was a being of absolute power.
Now, he has the opportunity to experience what it's like to be called "absolute power."
In the end, I fell into a deep madness.
But before that could happen, he had to master the patronus spirits with distinct personalities in front of him.
Kurt, Thousand Tails, Nightshade, Siren, Kuiyong, and Longnsmu.
And, of course, the countless gods who surrender to each of the guardian deities.
At present, his memory is only about their abilities and identities, but he doesn't know anything about "personality".
It's a bit inappropriate to say that I don't understand at all, after all, we have spent a little time together.
Although these Patronus are very obedient to themselves, there seems to be little need to know their personalities.
But for other species, they are not necessarily safe.
That's right, you have to think about the safety of this world first.
Inevitably, in the future, I will be active in the human world.
Before I can find the person behind my frame, I have to find a way to restore myself to the way I was.
Compared to the former, the difficulty of the latter is more unceremonious.
Not only do I not know all the abilities of gluttony, but I also don't know whether this method is feasible or not.
Because gluttony did not deny the possibility of my matter, and at the same time - did not agree.
If you can change your appearance back to the way it was while maintaining your strength, this is of course the best outcome.
I can only hope that I can grasp all the possibilities and lead the process to the best outcome.
For this to do this, you must first develop the power of gluttony.
Searching for all possibilities in the human world.
First of all, the starting point should be to solve the problem of "race" in the future.
Now that he has become a glutton, the race is naturally not a human being, but a real "evil god".
In view of the fact that the Protoss is still relatively closed in the human world, he must keep a low profile.
Needless to say, the six guardian spirits in front of them must also keep a low profile.
I don't know if in their minds my commands are enough to bind their actions.
Anyway, let's ask a question about it first.
First of all – is the perception of human beings.
"Ahem——!
Wu coughed lightly twice, suggesting that he was ready to speak.
The six guardian spirits lowered their heads one after another, without the slightest movement, ready to listen.
"That's—Siren, what do you think of humans?"
"Lord Gluttony, a bunch of useless ants."
"What else?"
"A delicacy to eat."
"Very nice view!"
No! It's not good at all - the pretending to be calm is so complaining in his heart.
Although I knew that these guardians were very disgusted with the humans who had sealed the gluttony, I never thought that they would be so extreme. However, since he has completely inherited the identity of gluttony, if he denies the siren's opinion, it will inevitably arouse suspicion.
Let's take it for granted.
"Thank you very much for your compliment."
Keeping the little girl's cute smile, the siren happily responded to Wu's praise. As everyone knows, in Wu's heart, the siren has been included in one of the blacklists, and is included in the blacklist of potential dangers to human beings.
Then, the grim gaze shifted from the siren to the next figure, Kurt.
"It's your next turn, Kurt."
"Report to your lordship. In a small way, humans are very interesting creatures. ”
"Oh——? What an interesting answer, can it be said why? ”
"Yes - despite its short lifespan, it can create a lot of new things, and many ideas or thoughts are very different from those of the gods. Apparently they are highly self-aware creatures."
"From the way you speak, you seem to have a good opinion of humanity?"
"Does it make you feel uncomfortable?"
"There's no such thing, but I didn't expect you to have a strong sense of identification with human beings."
"It seems that there is a strong sense of persistence that attracts a small curiosity."
Although he had this feeling for a long time, Kurt was full of "gentleman" elegance.
Not only the behavior, but also the conversation is quite elegant.
Aside from the unknown gender aura, Kurt should be considered a relatively safe existence-
- Just as Wu thought so reassuringly.
A curious question came out of Yehe's mouth.
"But—Kurt, I think you seem to be particularly fond of abusing humans, right?"
It was like a question flying from the sky, which could instantly change the gentleman's posture.
