Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 204:

Black smoke rose from the ruins of a house. A light rain that fell not long ago did not completely extinguish the flames throughout the town, but intensified the smoke.

Looking from afar, the whole town is shrouded in a dark mist, which is creepy.

It’s evening, and it’s supposed to be the time for people to finish their day’s work and prepare dinner. But there was not even a single resident walking on the streets that should have been lively. Those who should have finished their work and went home are lying on the ground, underneath a pool of blood that is drying up. And in their house, the relatives who were waiting for them to come back also died under the knife, regardless of male or female, young and old. Even a lot of people were given an extra one or two to make sure they were killed.

In the entire town, the only thing that still retains a little bit of life is the lord’s mansion. Of course there are nobles in the territory of the merchant faction, just as there are merchants in the territory of the noble faction. The local lord is a baron who is keen on doing business. Every night, checking and sorting out the accounts of the day with the lights is his favorite way of entertainment.

He can no longer entertain like this, because he and all the original members of the mansion have become headless corpses piled up outside the door.

Now, what brings life to this mansion is a group of cold and exhausted executioners.

The soldiers have found their own places to sleep, and the snoring sounds one after another. Some patrolling officers were holding cold and sharp weapons, silently spinning around the mansion, and on the watchtower at the highest point of the mansion, Earl House, who should also be very tired, wrapped his body in a thick blanket and stared into the distance. .

He seemed to be playing the role of a sentry, but the maid sitting across from him knew that he actually didn't look at anything.

"It seems to be a big trouble." She said, "The news from above says that more than one deity has launched an investigation."

"They can investigate as they please." The earl said nonchalantly, "They can't investigate any valuable information."

It is true, even the spells that trace back time are not effective for them. Even if there are powerful deities who have gone to the scene of several massacres to track down, they can't see their appearance, only know their identities.

"As long as you investigate carefully, there is no secret in the world that can't be found."

"Perhaps, but for us, keeping it secret for a while is enough." The earl didn't care at all. "As long as our plan can be completed, even if they find out the truth at that time, so what?"

He sneered disdainfully: "The fact that people's hearts are turned back is not something that the mere "truth" can determine."

The maid sighed and said nothing.

After a while, she stood up and looked around the town that had become a dead city under her feet.

"It's the fifth village, how many times are you going to slaughter?" she asked.

"Not sure, depending on the effect." The earl said, "Probably... if there are two or three, it will be almost the same."

He paused, and said, "I will trouble you for the finishing work at that time."

"...I really don't like this job."

"I don't like it either, but someone has to do all the work." The earl smiled, "It's a little hypocritical to say these between us. You and I have never done this kind of thing during my lifetime."

The maid smiled bitterly, and then sighed: "You may not believe it, but when I was alive, I really never committed a massacre. Forget the killing on the battlefield. I never asked the soldiers to Weapons are directed at civilians. This is one of the most proud things in my life."

"That's why you can only create a kingdom, not an empire. If you are fierce enough, you may defeat the orc empire and create your own empire."

"...It is not unreasonable to say so, but in the face of time, what great empire can last?" The maid smiled, "The so-called'orc empire' has actually been replaced for several generations. Whether it’s the emperor’s bloodline and tribe, or the ruling guiding ideology...Even the king of the orcs and gods has been changed. Even if I created the empire that year, so what? I don’t think it can make me in the history Leave more brilliance on it."

"Is this the arrogance of winners?" The earl smiled slightly sarcastically, and said, "I am different from you. I am a complete failure. I tried my best and tried my best, but in the end I couldn't protect it. Live anything. Your confidence, I have never had it."

"So your style of doing things is so intense?"

"Almost, among the three of us, I am considered the most extreme." The count looked at the sky and sighed, "I didn't expect that I would step into the world again and have the opportunity to show my heart! "

"The things in the world are often unexpected." The maid said, "In the beginning, I came to the world, then Robert came, and then Robert was called back and replaced you... All of our three holy spirits came out. After the scene, this thing is already amazing."

"But the goal has not changed much, has it?"

"...Yes, we always have only one goal." The maid smiled, "Although it has changed a lot, the things we have to do are always the same."

"Let the gold coin federation mess up and mess up as much as possible. This is what we have to do." The count said, "I feel like I am doing a good job."

"It's good, but I think the method can actually be better."

"The method is not important."

"Methods are important."

"Successful people always think so, but for losers, if they can't succeed, what's the point of considering ‘method’?"

There was a momentary silence in the outpost.

After a while, the maid said: "How is your injury?"

"It's okay."

"It's okay? You have been punished by heaven. It won't be so easy, right."

"In fact, it is not as serious as you think. After all, I was originally hostile to these guys. Killing them does not violate my oath for me."

"However, with our power, once displayed in the human world, it is easy to be sensed by the enchantment."

"You think too much~IndoMTL.com~If I was sensed, I would have been struck to death by a thunder." The count smiled and shook his head. "I just used the power of the legendary lower class. This level of power will not disturb the enchantment."

"But I don't see any signs of recovery from your injury." The maid said.

"Yes, it's impossible to recover anymore." The count smiled slightly, "After all, this body has been dead for a long time, and there is no way for the dead to recover from their injuries."

After a period of silence, the maid sighed and said: "I always have a bad feeling."

"I have too." The earl said, "It doesn't matter, as long as you can get things done, whatever you want."

The two were speechless and fell into complete silence.
