Chapter 34: An undercurrent hidden beneath the water's surface

"It's okay, I forgive you. As the closest person to me, if people know that you all believe it, others will be more sure. The princess's voice returned to gentleness, but her tone remained serious.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, Ellie will not deliberately approach Mr. Ning Yuan's Demon Captain on any occasion." Ellie responded earnestly while playing with the sheets.

"Hmm. But my cousin is in Jinling, and you can visit her in my name. Maybe she can help you with your current mission. ”

"Is the president of the Jinling Company of the Motian Group? Ellie got it. The pink fairy girl responded.

The princess's voice on the phone: "Then I don't have anything else to do." You will return soon. ”

Ellie: "Yes, Your Highness the Princess. Ellie is not with you, please take care of yourself. ”

"Don't worry, there's still Eve."

"Then Ellie will be relieved."

Waiting for the princess on the other side to hang up the phone, Elysia bounced up from the bed again, cheering: "Yay! You can have a good time for a few days. By the way, let's do the rice first. ”

The pink goblin who was temporarily free from the cage in the demon capital talked to himself lively. At the same time, somewhere unknown.

Seven old men with silver hair and white beards, each sitting on a futon, in a circle, were drinking tea and talking.

The seven of them and their predecessors have countless legends and code names in history:

The Big Dipper, the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest or the Pine Forest, and the Seven Stars of the Green Dragon.

They never admit or deny these false names, but just silently do their own thing, guarding the Dawn Empire's human heritage.

There were only seven of them, no more, no less. For now, let's call them numbers first.

The old man, codenamed 404, spoke: "Ability awakenings are becoming more and more frequent. Today, there are three cases in the Lebanese state, all in Jinling; The ugly country is also three examples; two cases of rakshasas; The Eagle Kingdom and Gaul are both examples. ”

"In addition to the B-class signal that was contained this morning, at noon today, there were two more signals from the awakened in Jinling. The name is a long office, and it has been detected, and the signals are S-class and A-class. But I haven't found it yet. The little princess of the Demon Emperor has already sent someone to the scene. ”

409: "Hmph, those old foxes of the demon clan are not very reliable. The latest technology provided to you by the 'Poyang Lake' base is more accurate and has a smaller margin of error. ”

404: "Indeed, the accuracy of the aura detector we secretly developed is relatively high, and it can locate the main urban area of Jinling where the aura fluctuates, with an error of about 300 kilometers; Our detection accuracy is also higher than that of the demons, and the error is only one psionic level; There are other auxiliary means. The signal strength we determine is the SS signal and the B signal. ”

404: "The awakened person with strong qualifications, the one with higher qualifications is an S-level." However, we can't search for targets with great fanfare, so we can only secretly probe, and there is no result so far. Of course, our 'mole' feedback in the office with a long name, they also had no results. ”

407: "After all, the heavens are dark, and people are not prosperous. It's not easy for the lads to get to where they are now. ”

408: "So what else can we do next?" ”

404: "Demons are all keeping an eye on the hidden organization of the human race, as long as they show up, they are defined as a 'terrorist organization', organizing all kinds of forces to annihilate, and there is no shortage of elite young men who let us humans, or 'human traitors' who take refuge in demons, to exterminate those who also belong to the hope of mankind, and start a human race. What a heartache! So, we'd better do nothing as well. Continue to secretly protect our heritage and knowledge, secretly develop more human elites and seeds, protect them, and nurture them for the future. ”

Historically, there have been countless examples of human elites rebelling against the Terrans and throwing themselves into demons. From the beginning to the back, there are Ji Hui (桀), Di Xin, Ji Gong Yan (Nirvana) to cultivate the magic skills, military exploits, suppress the human race, and finally by the Xia Shang Dynasty and the three Dynasty Demon Emperors were crowned kings, known as the King of Xia, the King of Shang, and the King of Zhou You.

409 sighed: "Although we humans have far more than the number of demons, we are still weak. As long as the royal family can continue to return to their ancestors, the power of the Demon Emperor will always be the biggest obstacle. We are not capable of the enemy, so we can only avoid the edge for the time being, and wait for the opportunity. ”

Before the pre-Qin period, the emperor could only be the pure-blooded of the Li clan of the Demon Emperor Family, and at that time, the aura was full, and it was relatively easy for the phenomenon of "atavism" to appear; Later, the aura declined, and the pure-blood royal family became fewer and fewer, so it gradually let go, but the purer the bloodline, the more qualified to become the Demon Emperor.

The so-called "atavism" refers to the fact that there is a certain probability that the descendants will have the blood of the ancestors completely without mixing with the others. It's just that in this world, the pure-blooded bloodline of the atavistic ancestors is the guarantee of the power of the demon clan and the demon clan, and it is easier to control the demon qi and demon qi.

It is worth mentioning that the Emperor of the Dawn Empire is the existence with the highest individual combat power, although he cannot be as many enemies as before the pre-Qin - it is the "ten thousand people" of the era of spiritual energy, but it can still be done as a human nuclear bomb. The speed is faster than that of a supersonic plane, and the body protector Demon Gang can't even penetrate the missile, and if the Demon Emperor is given enough time, he can destroy the country alone.

For example, in a world without mushroom eggs, the Demon Emperor is a "peaceful" deterrent. Killing an ordinary demon and a human is not like playing, provided that he can put down his body.

Therefore, politicians from all over the world have to respect the Demon Emperor, and use means such as the Hypocrisy Republic to limit the struggle to political struggles, because they are ruthless, and none of the officials can afford to take a finger from the Demon Emperor.

404: "That's all for today." End of meeting. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the figures of the seven old men disappeared into this space one by one. In the end, only two old men remained.

409 said to 404, who had not yet left: "Sage Cai, as a world walker, you should pay attention to your body, don't be too tired." ”

404 pressed his temple and smiled bitterly: "In his place, he will seek his own government." Wait until the day you lie in the coffin, and there is time to rest. ”

409 was a little angry: "You're comfortable in the coffin, what do you want the boys to do?" Has a successor been found? ”

404: "Haven't found it yet." Okay, Sage Ruan, don't persuade me, my medical skills are the strongest among the seven of us, and I know it in my heart. ”

409: "He who heals does not heal himself." It's good that you know it yourself. I heard you haven't been home for almost a year, and your little granddaughter is starting to miss you, right? ”

404 showed a warm smile on his old face, as if he thought of his well-behaved and sensible granddaughter: "Yes, it's been almost a year, and I have to go home to see it this year." My little granddaughter waits for my red envelope every year. ”

409: "My granddaughter misses you, so you can go back and see more." Our business needs to be carried forward, and you can't do it alone. ”

404: "Thanks, I will." ”

The peaks and mountains are like gathering, the wind blows the bamboo forest, and there is no one again.
