Chapter 36: The Beginning of Destruction
Listening to the mournful words of Number One and Number Two, Lucius felt that he was afraid that this holy city, which had once ruled the entire continent in glory and would affect future generations even if it fell into the Misty Forest, would really usher in a crisis that would be enough to destroy it.
For thousands of years, there have been many heroes on the mainland, and although there have been occasional wars between countries, on the whole, the mainland has been stable and harmonious, and this qiฤ is all due to the existence of the holy land.
Even though the Sanctuary could not float in the sky and had fallen into the depths of the Misty Forest, the powerful rules released by the Sanctuary restricted the development of powerful forces, allowing the continent to be harmonious and peaceful.
And now, the Holy Domain is about to usher in the real destruction of miรจ, if the holy realm is really ruined, the restriction rules will also collapse, and at that time, the strong and careerists on the mainland will have no restrictions and restraints, they will set off a bloody storm attack for their own ambitions, and the continent will be fully plunged into war and turmoil.
Thinking of this, Lucius suddenly smiled and said, "Hehe, but those wars and turmoil have nothing to do with me, I don't have the strength to manage it now, and it is impossible to save the world." โ
Hearing Lucius say this, Number One and Number Two felt a little puzzled, as robots who had stayed in the Sanctuary for many years, they had witnessed the rise and fall of too many dynasties, and they would unconsciously care about the life and death of many living beings in the Sanctuary, and they did not want to see the war and turmoil bring destruction to living beings.
Therefore, the two of them did not understand Lucius's reaction, and No. 1 couldn't help but say bluntly: "Your Highness, you shouldn't be like this, as a descendant of the four major poker royal families in the Holy Realm, especially as a descendant of the Clover family, you should shoulder the heavy responsibility of stopping the chaos and saving the world." โ
One's words made Lucius stunned, looked at the two robots with incredulous faces, and opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't know how to say it.
Seeing Lucius' stunned look, No. 2 said more tactfully: "Your Highness, as a descendant of the Clover family, there are some responsibilities that you can't escape, even if you don't have that ability now, you must always keep that sense of responsibility in your heart." โ
Seeing the bitter expression of the two robots, Lucius finally couldn't bear it anymore, patted his forehead and said, "Hey, I really can't understand the people who want to save the world. โ
Without waiting for Number One and Number Two to speak, Lucius said solemnly, "Don't you think that for so many years, whether it is the Clover Royal Family, or other royal families, or even the entire Holy Land, this mind is wrong?"
Number One and Number Two were completely stunned, even though they had the ability to think independently, they had never doubted the salvation of the Sacred Domain after staying in the Sacred Domain for so many years and witnessing the rise and fall of the Sacred Domain.
But right now, Lucius was skeptical, and bluntly said that what the Sanctuary had done for so many years was wrong, and even that salvation was wrong, which had completely subverted their cognition.
In the face of the shock of No. 1 and No. 2, Lucius still said with an indifferent face: "Have you ever thought about it? Whether it is the Sanctuary or the creatures on the continent, they all have the ability to think independently, they have their own thoughts and desires, and this world is theirs after all. โ
"There are no eternal gods, no dynasty that will never be lonely, and it is the ordinary creatures who ultimately push the wheels of the world, since they are pushing the wheels, why can't they be at the helm?"
"Let all the creatures on the continent let them decide how to go, we should not forcibly interfere with the direction of the wheels as the so-called savior, even if we want to guide them, we should put ourselves in their shoes, integrate into them, and lead as equals. โ
Lucius's words left One and Two speechless, and the two cyborgs felt that the core of their heads was already running fast and even starting to heat up, and they couldn't figure out why Lucius would say such a thing.
As cyborgs in the Sanctuary who have witnessed the rise and fall of dynasties, they also understand that it is ordinary beings who push the wheels, but they consciously believe that the person at the helm should be the one standing on the heights.
In other words, they felt that the person at the helm should be the descendants of the four royal families in the Holy Domain.
But now, the descendant of the Clover family to which they belong in front of him has said that he wants ordinary creatures to take the helm, and his guidance should be to integrate into ordinary creatures, which almost burned the cores of the brains of No. 1 and No. 2.
After being stunned for a long time, he finally became more rational and said: "Your Highness, your idea is indeed very peculiar, almost no one in the past generations of the Sacred Domain has thought like you, according to the first king, the power to decide the fate and the struggle will always be in the hands of a few. โ
After listening to No. 2's words, the smile on Lucius's face receded, looked around and thought for a moment and said, "Okay, it's really unclear now, so let time witness it." โ
As soon as Lucius's words fell, No. 1 and No. 2 wanted to continue to say something, but suddenly the ground trembled violently, and the robots in the power workshop hurriedly began to maintain the gears one by one.
A loud "boom" sounded, No. 1 and No. 2 looked at each other, both of them had a look of horror in their eyes, and No. 1 hurriedly said to Lucius: "Your Highness, hurry, go quickly, we must get out of here quickly, I'm afraid that the sealed demon god is about to be born, we have to leave quickly." โ
Hearing this, Lucius's expression also became solemn, but he looked quite calm, and he did not leave the power workshop with the two of them in a hurry, but held the mechanical source core in his hand and silently recited the incantation in his heart.
The magical elements in the body were immediately sucked into the source core, and the internal gears in the core ran rapidly, turning to emit a dazzling brilliance, covering the entire power workshop.
Everywhere Guanghua passed, those robots who were originally in a hurry all stopped what they were doing and turned their heads to look at Lucius standing in front of the door of the workshop.
The next moment, all the robots gathered forward, bowed to Lucius in unison, and said in unison: "Meet Your Highness, thank Your Highness for giving you thinking, and we will follow Your Highness to the death." โ
The brilliance dissipated, Lucius's face was a little pale, he looked down at the dull mechanical source core in his palm, and couldn't help muttering: "I didn't expect that this mechanical source core needs so much power." โ
After muttering, he turned to Number One and Number Two and said, "Alright, now Number One and Number Two, you are responsible for leading them, leave here immediately, withdraw from the Holy Domain, find a safe place to hide in the Misty Forest, and wait for me." โ
Hearing Lucius say this, No. 1 and No. 2, who were just about to receive the order, were stunned for a moment, and No. 2 first came to his senses and exclaimed, "Your Highness, do you want to go to the depths of the Sanctuary by yourself? No, it's too dangerous." โ
No. 1 also said eagerly: "Yes, Your Highness, you can't go deep into the Sanctuary alone, the core of the Sanctuary is the sealing land, now is the last struggle of the Demon God, and he may break the seal and rush out at any time, it is really dangerous for you to go there alone at this time." โ
Lucius smiled and said, "Hehe, I know it's dangerous, but I have to go, even if I know that I can't stop it, but I don't try it myself, I'm still a little unwilling." โ
Number One and Number Two glanced at each other, and the two seemed to see that Lucius was resolute, and did not continue to persuade them, and Number Two waved his hand to the two metal robots and said, "Your Highness, since you insist on going, then please take the two of them with you." โ
Turning his head to look at the two seemingly ordinary metal robots, he heard No. 2 say: "Your Highness, although the two of them are only made of ordinary metal, and their combat effectiveness is not the strongest, they are very strong in defense, even if those demon gods appear, they are absolutely sure that they will send you away safely." โ
The two robots stepped forward, knelt down on one knee and said to Lucius, "No. 3 (No. 4) has seen His Highness, please rest assured, Your Highness, we can definitely guarantee that you will leave the Sanctuary safely." โ
Seeing the firm gaze of the two robots, Lecius knew that he couldn't refuse, so he could only smile and nod in agreement: "Okay, okay, I'll take No. 3 and No. 4." โ
Seeing that Lucius agreed to bring No. 3 and No. 4, No. 1 and No. 2 were immediately much more relieved, and No. 1 suddenly seemed to remember something, leaned into Lucius's ear and whispered: "Your Highness, since you are going to the core of the Sanctuary, then you can try to seize the real core of the Sanctuary." โ
"Oh, the real core? What is that?"
Seeing that Lucius was puzzled, No. 2 immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, that is the true source of power in the entire Sanctuary. โ
Turning around and pointing to the power workshop, he continued: "You see, the power of the many gears here actually comes from that core, and it is also because the core is pouring to seal the demon god, so that the power of the holy domain is insufficient, and finally has to fall into the misty forest. โ
"Oh, won't the demon gods destroy that core when they break through the seal?"
"No......" Number One and Number Two denied in unison, after which Number One continued to whisper: "Your Highness, that core is the source core left by the founder, and it is completely composed of energy convergence, which just complements the mechanical core in your hand, so you remember, you must find a way to get it." โ
Lucius was not as impatient as No. 1 and No. 2, but said calmly: "Don't worry, I'll do my best, okay, let's go." โ
With that, Lucius led No. 3 and No. 4 and walked towards the outside of the workshop, even though the entire Sanctuary shook the earth, Lucius's pace was always steady.
Watching the back of Lucius leaving, No. 1 and No. 2 looked at each other, and No. 1 couldn't help but ask No. 2: "You say, follow him, can we really reproduce the glory of the Clover family?"
Hearing this, No. 2 sighed and shook his head and said: "I don't know, but now we have no way out, we have been created by the king, given us independent thinking, but never let us assist any generation of kings, what we are waiting for is this moment, even if we are finally ruined, we have no choice." โ
Two's words made One's expression solemn, but before One's mouth could be spoken, Number Two continued: "One, in the words of their flesh and blood, 'there is hope for the future', then our hope is in him." โ
Obviously, the two robot leaders have their own duties, with Number Two being calmer and better at thinking, and Number One being less good at thinking but seemingly more powerful, so Number One can't fully understand Number Two for a while.
No. 1 didn't continue to ask, knowing that now was not the time to ask, seeing that the ground was shaking more and more, No. 1 knew that he had to evacuate as much as possible, so he and No. 2 led the robots in the workshop to evacuate quickly.
When all the robots in the workshop were evacuated, Belletti appeared in the workshop, looked at the empty power workshop, lowered her head sadly and muttered: "Hope ......"
Before the sound could disperse in the workshop, Belletti's figure had disappeared.
