007, dream
Azir had seen what Kagu was thinking, and he knew that the hearing was a cover, perhaps just to distract himself or to get him into a relationship.
So when Kiran told him that, Azir wasn't surprised at all.
However, he had also thought of another possibility before, that is, Jiagu and Kiran had a black face and a red face, if Jiagu was playing the good guy, then Kiran was playing the bad guy.
As soon as the idea was born, Azir rejected it, as he didn't think Kiran would take a fancy to his Ascendant technique.
And when Kiran said Jiagu's plan, he couldn't help but wonder if the two really had a cooperative relationship.
"Why are you here to tell me this? Mr. Kieran. Azir asked.
"Because I think his so-called method is a waste of time and unnecessary." Kieran sat down in his chair casually, "Since you've lived in Kamigawa for twenty years, I think you know about me, the Great Clock counts the entire known universe, and I've traveled to many places to practice and verify the theory of the Great Clock, including your hometown of Shurima. ”
Azir didn't know why: "I believe that there are not a few Kamigawa people who have been to Shurima, my father lost his life in that war many years ago, otherwise I would not have had the opportunity to come here." ”
Kieran said, "Kamigawa doesn't forget the people who contributed to it. ”
"What does that mean?"
"I don't agree with Jiagu's troublesome method of begging, so I came directly to you and handed over the Ascendant's technology, I can help you complete it, you Shurima can't do it." Kieran tapped on the table and said in an aggravated tone.
"I still don't understand, Mr. Kieran." Azir was not intimidated by him, "You are worshipped as gods in any corner of the known universe, super soldiers can be said to be invincible, this Ascendant is just something suitable for a small corner of us, even those incomplete materials, I think you can develop them yourself, maybe even better, why do you have to stare at these in my hands?" ”
"What doesn't we understand," said Kiran, "it doesn't matter that we want the Ascended, what matters is that Shurima can't have the Ascendant. ”
"What?"
A wave of anger rose in Azir's heart, almost unquenchable, and he looked at the vase on the table, and for a moment he even wanted to grab it and smash it into Kieran's head.
But he is not the emperor who coexisted with power and power in his previous life, and Shurima is just a small world in a remote corner of the universe, and Kiran can crush her with his fingers.
"I thought that Kamigawa's original intention was to guide the universe upwards." Azir took a deep breath and said.
"The premise of guiding the universe upwards is that Kamigawa is guiding, and we don't need other civilizations to keep up with us." Kieran said.
Azir chuckled, "That's how you believe that the Ascended One has such great ability?" ”
Kiran looked him in the eye and said very seriously, "Yes, I do." ”
"If one day, Kamigawa's decline is inevitable, and Shurima rises quickly, will you choose to swallow Kamigawa? Shurima's future emperor. ”
"Yes." Azir did not hesitate.
It was at this moment that the majesty that the Desert Emperor had hidden for many years was revealed, and Azir's golden pupils lit up with a sharp light, and the scream that tore through the darkness was like the chirping of a lone eagle.
Kiran laughed, but Azir couldn't hear the emotion in the laughter, and even if he was human in two lives, he couldn't understand the mind of a god.
In the end, they parted, and Azir had no sleep all night.
He really couldn't understand why Kiran had come to him, if he just wanted the Ascendant technique, then what he said later was too inexplicable.
Kieran's words were also something Azir didn't expect, he didn't expect Kiran to give such a high evaluation to the Ascendant, but this technology is still stuck in the theoretical stage and cannot break through.
In previous lives, mortals who received the power of Ascension from the Starcast Dragon King through the Sun Disc would be promoted to the Celestial Warrior, the Ascender.
But now there is no place in this world to borrow power, he has to rely on technology, but with theory and the equipment provided by the academy alone, Azir can't make himself promoted.
He'll always be a mortal.
Kagu trapped him, and he had no way to return to Shurima.
Kamigawa people, even if they don't have super genes, are gods in the eyes of lower-level civilizations.
Azir removed the necklace, rubbing a thumb-sized gold disc in his hand.
This is an imitation he made with the memory of his previous life, which can be regarded as a miniature supercomputer, and the theoretical data and formulas that the Ascendant is currently studying have all been imported into it.
This is his secret, and everything about the gold disc has not been written into the database.
At this time, the golden disc has already begun to operate, and now he only needs one thing that can provide the energy for promotion, and the super gene and beast body are obviously not enough to support the energy needed for promotion, so Azir's plan is to return to Shurima to conduct research again, he wants to start with mythology, maybe he can find something unexpected.
But after all, I haven't done any relevant experiments, and I don't know what the risks are.
Azir was just gambling, in fact, since he came to this world, he has been thinking about a question:
Can you really be a good leader?
Although he was betrayed by his friend Zelas in his previous life, he didn't do what he promised him after all.
In the first few years of his rebirth, Azir had nothing but hatred and anger in his heart, especially when he saw the insignificance and incompetence of this Shurima in this life, which made him angry.
But when he walked through the road of life again, and saw with his own eyes the people of Shurima struggling to survive in the desert, and even life became a luxury, he couldn't help but look at himself.
The weakness of civilization has made his world deeply afraid of the starry sky that should be wonderful, especially when a war involving a superior civilization has made the already depressed world even more devastation.
Azir once thought that the aliens who terrified Shurima were all enemies!
He had woken up in the middle of the night, when there would always be a vague figure standing next to the bed, but the light would turn on and disappear.
For a long time, Azir believed that it was the undead of Zelas who had followed him into this world, and that he had been haunted just to see his own jokes.
In a previous life, you were not capable of freeing slaves, and in this life you are unlikely to lead a broken world to prosperity.
When he understood that there was a "god" in this universe, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
He put aside his dignity and prestige and left his hometown for twenty years as a student, just to find a path suitable for Shurima.
He was always afraid, because he was not sure if he could succeed, Azir was just an incompetent emperor, incompetent enough to betray his closest brother, unable to do what he promised him, incompetent enough to watch his wife, children, and powerful empire annihilated.
The empire was annihilated at its own hands!
Azir had been afraid, he was afraid that he would bring his incompetence into this life, he was afraid that the planet Shurima would become more broken in his hands.
Twenty years ago, when he came to Kamigawa Academy, that fear reached its peak, and he wanted to flee, throw away all his responsibilities, and then flee all over the universe, but the pressure forced him to stand still and remain motionless.
He said to himself, as long as he learned Kamigawa's technical knowledge, it would be fine! That would lead Shurima to rise! Kamigawa is the first civilization in the universe! Their knowledge is definitely not bad!
That kind of thought is the "determined" look that Dinghei sees.
Azir has been paralyzing himself with this "toughness" for years.
He was no longer afraid, as he found that he could implement the "Ascendant" technology in this world.
When he developed this theoretical knowledge, he found a reason to tell himself that Shurima could rise and prosper!
But when he was excited, that feeling of powerlessness crept up on his heart again, and his heart was empty.
What is not practiced is just a piece of paper, and maybe it will be a pile of waste products.
He wanted to gamble but didn't dare to bet, and for many years he could only use desperate studies to divert his attention and numb himself.
The praise from his professors and classmates made him think that he had returned to his carefree teenage years in his previous life.
But Dream will wake up eventually, and he has graduated.
Only in the dead of night when he was alone, panic spread all over his body, and Azir was overwhelmed, because he put all his hopes on the Ascendant, but if the Ascendant could not succeed, then he would have nothing.
It's a reincarnation process, where excitement and fear alternate constantly.
How can a project developed by a student for decades be comparable to Kamigawa's tens of thousands of years of technology?
Therefore, the attitude of Jiagu and Kiran towards the Ascendant project made him happy and reassured.
"Shurima, will once again be boundless!"
Azir stared at the golden disc, his face illuminated by a faint golden light.
The lifespan of the Shurima is two hundred years, so the face of Azir, who is nearly forty years old, is still childish, and he becomes a child again, and this child has an unattainable dream, like a starry sky sprinkled in the night sky, reaching out and not touching, but when you set your eyes on it, you can no longer take it off.
