Silent Crown Chapter 556: Power and glory
"It can be done, Elder Stone, of course I can."
Ye Qingxuan answered calmly.
It’s like describing what’s taken for granted, predicting the definite future to them, but the tone is not proud, nor impassioned, it’s just natural indifferent:
"As long as the industrial reform is accelerated first, and the Stirling external combustion engine Type II sealed by the Royal Academy is taken out, the abandoned'industrial revolution' can be restarted.
Productivity will be comprehensively improved next, and the Lord system will be reopened at the same time.
I will promote a new generation of merchants and factory owners into the aristocratic class, and weed out the old aristocratic faction who clung to the territory and population.
A large number of people will lose their land and choose to work in factories.
Within two years, excess productivity will have nowhere to be consumed, and high tax rates will be imposed on lower-level civilians through upper-level policies, and milk will be poured into the Thames because it cannot be sold.
The merchants and nobles who are eager to gain a higher status and the poor civilian class after the transformation will begin to crave new land and markets, eager for more opportunities to become rich and channels for ascendance, forcing the country to invade, develop, and go. Looking for new capital...
At that time, the ‘East March’ will be a matter of course. "
Looking at the dumbfounded old people, Ye Qingxuan was expressionless, but it looked like a monster finally showing its teeth, showing hideousness in the dark.
"I can do it, Elder Stone, this kind of thing is too simple. If you just want this, I will do it better than anyone else."
He got up slowly, faced those stunned gazes, bowed his head, overlooking the old man in the cable, and told him: "Not only that, I will use saving the world as an excuse to win more A lot of power, on the grounds of the Eastern Campaign, sent people to the battlefield continuously, using war to plunder more and more power...
In the silence, only the old people are breathing muddy.
That was the ecstasy when the enthusiasm for war in the chest was ignited and embarked on the road to a dream.
And... a shock that cannot be concealed.
It's like a mortal raising his head, looking up at the huge shadow that covers the sky, and an indescribable awe rises in his heart.
In the silence, there are noises from far away.
The sudden bell sounded from the top of the fortress, sharp and high-pitched, like the scream of a crow, announcing the arrival of the unknown [主家教]Meteor Street Floating Clouds
.
In the dark sea outside the window, the flames were beating restlessly, illuminating the shadows emerging in the sea, one after another, hundreds of thousands, they came with the waves.
It seems endless.
There is a faint smell of stench in the wind.
The sound of hurried footsteps sounded from outside the gate, and Carol half-kneeled outside the door, pushing a gap away, reporting: "The ocean currents are speeding up, they are coming early, please follow me to the underground shelter."
There was silence, and no one responded.
Stone bowed his head in thought, like a stone statue, amid the gradually screaming.
Only the monotonous sound of life support equipment reverberates in the room.
A long time, a long time.
"What do you want, Ye Qingxuan?"
The old man slowly raised his head, stared at the young man's eyes, looked at his face again, redefining what he saw in front of him.
He asked, "If this is only true for you, then what are you trying to do?"
"Of course it is for ‘power’, Elder Shi Dong."
Ye Qingxuan answered frankly, without concealment, "I want to gain power, and to gain the power that everyone must look to me.
If Anglo can give me power, I will save Anglo. If the city in front of me is the holy city, then I will declare war with the cult.
I want to change the world, no one can stop me.
To me, the East Expedition is just a small part of the plan, whether it is a glorious death, the reconstruction of a new court, or the sacred East Expedition, I will give it to you.
Please be loyal to me, elder. "
The white-haired young man looked at him and told him:
"——things that can change the world, I have more!"
In silence, Stone stared into his eyes.
The turbid eyes became crimson, and an inhuman aura rose from the rotten body. Exhaustion and sleepiness disappeared, replaced by an iron glow.
Like a dying evil spirit, he opened his eyes and stared at the people in front of him, his eyes were like burning sword blades, trying to tear through all disguise and cowardice, distinguish between true and false, and penetrate the lies.
But he can't see anything.
In that pair of dark eyes, there is like a huge wind tunnel, quiet and deep, which continuously swallows all sufferings and never returns.
"It's like returning to the market."
Stone raised his hand, trying to touch those eyes, but he didn't dare to offend in awe. For a long time, he held up the holy ribbon in his hand towards Ye Qingxuan, as if holding a heavy crown.
He said, "Please bow your head."
Ye Qingxuan bent over, half kneeling to the ground, letting him wear the solemn holy **** his shoulder.
This time, the dark golden scriptures on the holy belt are no longer silent, as if there is a long sleep and the souls in it are awakened, and they glow with the glow of the blazing sun, burning with heat. You are a **** if you laugh or not.
.
Ye Qingxuan got up, looked at the holy belt on his shoulder, and then heard a uniform voice.
That was when all the old people took a step forward at the same time. They half-kneeled on the ground, bowed their heads, held a courtesy, and offered their loyalty without hesitation.
The sound of drawing a sword sounded.
On the iron chair, Shi Dong stretched out his hand and drew out the rust-covered saber in the dark grid.
The epee that has been sealed for a long time in the dark trembles, bursts out of dragons, and shakes off the rust and dust.
The mottled cracks and gaps cannot conceal the terrifying sharpness, and it has its own majesty.
In the lighted night outside the window and the scorching night wind, the thin old man propped up his body, dragged countless cables and electric shocks, and moved forward.
Toward Ye Qingxuan, he knelt on one knee, lowered his head, and presented his sword to Ye Qingxuan~IndoMTL.com~The war is about to begin. "
Stone begged softly: "Please bless us, Lord Grand Inquisitor."
Ye Qingxuan squeezed the hilt of the sword tightly and lifted it up, but he heard an illusion-like roar. Suddenly, there was an overwhelming cry from the quiet room.
It was the sonorous sound of countless iron armors rubbing, and the invisible souls returned as if they were a legion, entrusting the last obsession and remnant spirit to the sword.
So, the hilt of the sword was hot, like burning iron.
Immediately afterwards, the spine of the sword rested on Stone's shoulder.
Ye Qingxuan looked down at him and read the will of God to him:
"If you do not follow the schemes of the wicked, do not stand in the way of sinners, do not sit in the seat of a mocker, but love the law of justice, and think day and night, this man is blessed, and glory should be given to him."
"All the glory of the world belongs to you, sir."
The elders responded in unison with hoarse voices.
Ye Qingxuan lifted Shi Dong from the ground and returned his sword to him. Shi Dong supported his body with a sword as a stick.
The attendants in linen walked in through the side door, quickly removing the cumbersome robe for him, putting on the steel bones, unplugging the cables, and wedging the new machinery back into the body.
Soon, Shi Dong's thin body was covered with layers of steel. Heart rate monitor, blood pump, body fluid balance system, spinal syringe, intracranial oxygen supply system, and finally, a mask made of cold steel.
Oxygen, smelling of engine oil, poured into the lungs, causing the dying flames in the lungs to burn vigorously again.
"Please watch with me."
Shi Dong inserted the saber into the scabbard around his waist and steered the steel skeleton forward to guide Ye Qingxuan: "Let me show you the way of war of the witch's hammer."
Ye Qingxuan walked in front, showing a smile:
"Then, I will wait and see." (To be continued.)
