Chapter 1389: Rebirth
In June, the West Sea is always very stormy, especially when the wind and rain are combined, and a huge storm can form inadvertently. The wind and waves of this night have been pushed high, and the surging waves are like the surging tide in Fried's heart. After nearly two years of silence, his name as an undefeated general disappeared on the mainland with the shame of defeat more than a year ago, and now the flames of nearly two years of war have been extinguished, and as the port of Berga approaches, it has rekindled in his heart.
"My life must not be wiped out in the sinking with the traces of shame, and the rebirth of the undefeated general has only really begun at this moment......
More than eight months ago, the island in the depths of the Western Sea.
How big is Genesis Island? Zaga and Ryan didn't know what they knew about the dozens of islands known as the Genesis Islands in front of them, except for the shore of the tide, but they knew that the strength of Genesis Island was by no means limited to this, as can be seen from the warships that traveled to and from Genesis Island. Later, they learned from the mouths of the seafarers that in addition to the most mysterious Holy Emperor on the Creation Island, there were also three emperors, and each of the three emperors had its own area of domination, and these three ranges were controlled by the imperial realm. The closest to the mainland is the Tsar's sea, and the shore of the sea tide is a corner of the Tsar's Imperial Realm.
There are only three imperial realms, and the newcomers can't know about it, and even the old seafarers who have been on Genesis Island for decades may not have been there. In addition to the three Imperial Boundaries, there is also a Hell Island and an island known as the War Arsenal, which is a place where prisoners are kept. Genesis Island is like an overseas kingdom, and in order to maintain the stability of this place, it must have its own set of operating rules. and a terrible prison, Hell Island is one such terrible prison. The War Arsenal is the place where Genesis Island is used to manufacture weapons and deduce wars, and every year, every quarter, even every month, every week, there will be military drills on this place.
However, these two islands, Zakya and Ryan, have not yet been visited, and they are forbidden to enter and leave the area. In addition to this, the power of Genesis Island seems to cover a number of other places. As for what kind of place it is. It's not what they know at the moment.
On this day, William Fidner, the steward of the island of Genesis, sent someone to tell them that the Holy Emperor had returned. But instead of inviting them to meet right away, they were ready. Be summoned by the Holy Emperor at any time. This wait made Zaga and Ryan a little nervous. The one who can rule over the island of Genesis. How can a person who can control so many masters and have such a powerful military force not be nervous when he sees such a person? Of course. Fried, who was waiting with them, was not like this, although Fried was no longer as drunk as before, but he was still drinking, sip after sip, and he was drinking, but there was a little bit of essence hidden in his slightly drunk eyes, as if he was proud and disdainful, and more like a little expectation.
They waited for five days, not that the owner of Genesis Island intended to snub them, but that there were too many things to do. Since the Holy Emperor returned, there has been an endless stream of ships coming and going to the Creator Island in the past five days, and it is said that the Holy Emperor has been gone for several months, and many things are backlogged waiting for him to deal with.
On the fifth day, Fidnel finally sent someone to inform them to meet the Holy Emperor, and the meeting place was arranged in the core council hall of Genesis Island, which they had never been to before.
This council hall is a hollow in the belly of the creation mountain has been transformed, and there is not much artificial repair as a whole, but as soon as you enter the empty council hall in the belly of the mountain, the first thing you hear is not the sound of people's disputes, but the sound of the waves and the sound of the sea hitting the rocks.
It is not uncommon to hear the sound of waves on the island of Genesis, but it is strange that the waves actually come from the belly of the mountain. The three of them took a closer look, only to find that most of the ground in the belly of this mountain had collapsed, and a large hole in the ground was exposed directly connected to the underground sea, and on this collapsed hole there was a hanging island, and the center of the island was where the Holy Emperor was.
"Please come with me. Fidner walked ahead and led the way himself, leading the three of them to the hanging island in the center.
When they got closer, the three of them realized that the original Hanging Island was not suspended in the air by itself, but was tied by dozens of thick chains, connected to the mountain wall in the cave, and hung in mid-air. The connection to the middle hanging island is a semi-artificial and semi-primitive stone bridge, there is no protection on both sides of the stone bridge, if you replace it with an ordinary child, you will fall into the abyss if you are not careful.
Fidnel had stopped them before he stepped on the stone bridge, and there was no one in the cave at this time, except for the four of them, only someone in the center of the hanging island was talking, but the sound was far away, and there was the sound of water hindering it, so it was difficult to hear what the people in the center of the island were saying.
After a while, the voice stopped, and out of the center of the island came a person, this person Zega had seen, he didn't know the name of this person, but this person was quite conspicuous in golden holy armor, coupled with a square face and blond hair and a pair of eyes that were always hostile, so that Zechar was extra attentive.
At this moment, a gentle voice came from the dark depths of the cave, this voice was gentle and slow, that is, not high-pitched, but it was clear to people far away from the heart of the island, the sound was mixed with the sound of the waves, as if it was as passionate as the sea, and it seemed to have gone through a hundred years of vicissitudes and dyed with the tone of the years.
"You are Zechar, Ryan, and ...... Kea Fried?"
Ryan and Zega glanced at each other, but for a moment they didn't say anything back, and Fried didn't make a sound. Fidnel on the side had a flat voice, but said with a little humility: "Emperor, it's the three of them." ”
"Hmm......" The man in the heart of the island pondered for a moment: "Ice Monk Sakya, Fire Demon Ryan, I have heard about the two of you, since you are willing to stay, you are also welcome to join on Creation Island, it's just your old feud...... Genesis Island is not a place where you can come and go at will, and the rules and regulations of the island have already been told to you. ”
"When we come to the island, we will definitely abide by the laws of the island. Saga looked into the depths of the island, trying to see the appearance of the person in the island, but he opened his eyes wide for a long time, and he didn't even see an outline.
The eyes on the island were fixed on another person: "Kia Fried, the undefeated general of the St. Vicia Empire. ”
"Undefeated?" the slumped Fried chuckled contemptuously, "Undefeated is a thing of the past." Now I am no longer the undefeated general I once was. After speaking, he took out the wine jug he carried and poured a few sips into his stomach, as if mentioning that incident, only wine can hide his wounded heart.
"Defeat on the battlefield is just the most ordinary thing, failure will hit people, but also make people grow, why should a general look like this?"
Fried wiped his lips and said, "You don't need to worry about my business, but you invited me to meet you, but you hide your head and tail in the dark." Hmph, can't you see people?"
insulting the Holy Emperor like this, the people around him didn't react, and the people in the heart of the island laughed. And not angry: "The general is from a big country metropolis." It is a big man who has seen the world and has commanded thousands of armies, so he naturally looks down on us scattered organizations that occupy the island as kings from the bottom of his heart. Don't hide it from the general, it's not that I don't want to show up to meet you. In fact, I should have met with the three of them as soon as I got back to the island. It's just that I was frozen by the storm at sea during the return voyage. I had some minor illnesses and got a cold. In the past two days, the illness has been repeated, and I am afraid that talking to each other face-to-face will infect the three of them. I don't want the three guests to see the sick face of the creator island owner when they meet me for the first time, so it's not good to show up, and if the three guests think I'm rude, then I'm really sorry. As he spoke, he coughed twice with something to cover his mouth, but I don't know if it's true or not.
Fried snorted: "It's so easy to get sick and catch a cold, I don't know if it's because the wind and waves on the sea are too strong or the body of the owner of Genesis Island is too weak! I, Kia Fried, have been on the battlefield for a long time, what kind of injuries and illnesses have not been encountered, and I am still afraid of a little cold?"
However, Daoxin's voice was always calm: "It seems that the general must see me today?"
Fried said disdainfully, "Do you think I'm rare to you?"
The man in the heart of the island sighed: "Alas, it seems that I was wrong. I shouldn't have just been concerned about my own minor illness and ignored the general's feelings. In this case, I had no choice but to meet with the general with illness, and I hope that the general will not be angry. Mr. Zaga and Ryan, I will talk to General Fried today, and then I will meet with you two days after my condition improves. Fidnell, send the two gentlemen back for me. ”
Fednell nodded slightly towards the center of the island and left with Zaga and Ryan.
After coming out of the dark cave and looking at the dazzling sunlight in the sky, after Fidnell left, Ryan asked, "Zachar, what do you think of this Holy Emperor?"
Zechar knew he had something to say, so he just looked at him and waited for him to continue.
Ryan said, "What do I think of this Holy Emperor...... How did this Holy Emperor ...... Why is it a little different from what I thought?"
Saga smiled lightly, "Did you disappoint?"
"You feel that way, too?" Ryan asked rhetorically.
Sakya looked at the woods next to him and said, "I originally thought that a leader who could dominate such a large force should be a person with great bearing and extraordinary momentum, but although we didn't meet this Holy Emperor, we didn't feel any momentum in the short conversation just now, but talked about trivial things like illness, not at all like those powerful people we have ever seen." ”
Ryan nodded repeatedly: "That's right, that's right, what you said is what I thought in my heart." My first feeling was that he didn't feel like a person who could do great things, what kind of Holy Emperor, I was looking forward to it before. There is a lot of nonsense when you meet, if you want to meet, you will meet, if you don't see it, you won't see it, what is sick and inconvenient to see people, twisting and pinching like a woman. ”
"Hey, don't say that. Zechar looked around and said, "We're still on the island of Genesis." Moreover, I think that the inhabitants of Genesis Island, whether they are ordinary people or those naval soldiers, do not respect the Holy Emperor as fake, and if these unpleasant words are listened to by them, it should be bad for us. ”
Ryan said: "I think these residents of Genesis Island have been on Genesis Island for too long, and they only know that there is a Holy Emperor, if they see the outside world, I am afraid they will not have such thoughts." ”
Zega said: "Anyway, when Fried comes back after seeing the Holy Emperor and asks him, he will know that he has seen a lot of people and things, and he has a lot of experience, and his evaluation of people must be good." ”
Seeing a person in person is sometimes important for some people. Because this is likely to determine whether you should stay, and whether you should work for this person, whether it is worth serving. Although Sakya and Ryan agreed to stay, staying did not mean that they would become a member of the Holy Emperor's command, and it was for this reason that Fried had to meet the Holy Emperor.
On the island, Ryan and Zaga traveled to the islands frequently, but on the main island, the three of them were still housed together. When Fried returned, it was a little late, and Ryan saw him. I can't wait to ask for details. But Fried had a flask in his hand. But his expression was thoughtful, and he didn't even hear the question next to him, and he didn't come back to his senses until Ryan yelled at him three or four times.
"Hey, hey, hey. What's wrong with you? What the hell?" Ryan waved his hand in front of Fried, "How can you see the Holy Emperor come back once and be ghostly." Could it be that he is a big beauty. I'm smitten about you?"
Fried never laughed at such a boring joke, and he glanced at Ryan and then at Zechar. He asked, "What are you doing at the door of my house?"
"Hey, I've asked you seven or eight times, and you haven't heard me ask you about it?" Ryan was so angry that he had to ask again: "We want to ask you, what do you think of that Saint Emperor when you see him, and what kind of person is he?"
"What kind of person is he?" Fried seemed to fall into a delusion again, and his consciousness was gone.
Ryan shook him, "Hey, hey, what's wrong with you?"
"No, it's fine. Fried opened Ryan's hand, took out the key, and tried to push open his own door and enter, but Ryan rushed to follow in first. Fried frowned, "What are you going to do? ”
Ryan pushed the door and entered, "I know it's your residence, can't you go in and sit?"
"You ......" Seeing Ryan who had already walked into his room, Fried was unhappy, but he still didn't say anything after all. On this island, only the three of them are outsiders, and these days, although they have not talked too deeply with each other, they are in the same situation, and they seem to be somewhat closer.
What kind of person is the Holy Emperor, Fried is a little confused. Sometimes it's hard to tell what kind of person a person is just by the way they speak and the tone of their voice. Born in the empire and raised in the royal capital, he has seen those who hold power without being angry and arrogant, and he has also seen those who are arrogant and put on a high posture, those people, those people, their prestige or pretense, or a habit that has been cultivated for many years, and there are also people who speak the most ordinary words, use the most peaceful tone, but the words seem to have a natural force of command, which is irresistible. Fried has seen so many different characters, not only has he seen them, but he can face them calmly, but he ......
Fried had an indescribable feeling that when he was young, in the royal capital, when he was a small captain, he had never been afraid of those generals who controlled the army, and the ordinary soldiers trembled when they saw those big men talking, but he dared to look directly at those people. This fearlessness is a kind of self-confidence, because he has never looked down on himself below those figures, nor has he ever seen how unattainable those figures are, and in his heart he has put himself and those people on an equal footing.
However, when he faced the Holy Emperor for the first time, the previous mentality of not being humble or arrogant actually had a little strange feeling, maybe this feeling was more than a little. When he met the Holy Emperor, the other party's speech was still as smooth and gentle as hearing it in the dark when he didn't meet, but seeing the Holy Emperor was like seeing a strange magic power, this magic was like the bottom of his heart, deep into the bone marrow, people couldn't help but appreciate and admire, and people were irresistibly attracted to him.
The appearance of the Holy Emperor is not majestic and domineering, and his eyebrows do not make people feel afraid and afraid, he does not give people the feeling of a lofty posture, nor a cold and frosty atmosphere, nor that kind of solemnity and inviolability, nor the kind of disdain and contempt in the face of a qiē. On the contrary, he seems to give people a warm and sunny feeling, whether it is familiar with him or strangers, there will be a sense of comfort and joy when they see him, his eyes often carry a lovely cunning, and his temperament is easy and approachable nobility. Especially his lazy smile, which seems to be careless.
All in all, Fried found that none of the leaders he had seen were the same as the Holy Emperor, and he even felt that the Holy Emperor he had seen before did not possess any kind of leadership temperament that the world recognized with. But if it were just like that, he wouldn't be confused, because this first impression felt too real and too unreal for him, and there was an endless mystery between the real and the unreal.
Of course he didn't tell Zechar and Ryan about these feelings, because he didn't know how to describe them. Many people can make an abstract conclusion when they see it at first sight, regardless of whether this conclusion is absolutely accurate or not, but this person, this person who is called the Holy Emperor, he really can't make a conclusive evaluation.
With this myth in mind, he and Zega and Ryan continued to stay on the island, and in the days that followed, they had all met the Holy Emperor more than once, and each time they had seen each other, they had the same feeling as the last time, but it was very different. It's as if this person wears a lot of different faces, but there is a warm feeling that is always the same. Until one day, until the Holy Emperor agreed for the first time to let Fried accompany him to the War Arsenal, Fried's attitude completely changed after returning from the fight.
Fried had been sinking before, had been hesitating about the past feelings between himself and the Empire, and had always been confused and speculative about the Holy Emperor in front of him. But after coming back that night, his confused eyes were gone, and his indulgent expression was gone, although he was still thinking and thinking, his eyes had revealed the light that he had not seen for a long time, and that kind of clarity was the firmness after having a direction. Since then, he has officially joined the Genesis Throne and has become a true member of the Genesis Island.
......
The sea breeze howled, the torrential rain poured, the clouds seemed to weigh on the overhead in the lightning and thunder, and the ship shook violently in the waves, whether at sea or in the harbor.
"A qiē, I've got a qiē. This moment is my undefeated new life, and it is also my first restart. On the continent of Kemilia, Kia Fried is back with the will to be reborn!
......
At 4 a.m. on June 15, 7406 in the Holy Garden calendar, the port of Baikal fell, and the creation battle that delayed the entire continent of Kamiria officially began!
