Kingdom’s Bloodline Chapter 22: The Ending Battle (Part 2)

　　The end battle.

　　 What a familiar word.

　　 Thales once watched a lot of dramas in the Temple of Dark Night next to the Grand Bazaar-although most of his attention was on how to make money from the intent of the audience.

　　 I have to say, even though Mingye’s priests seem to be nervous, they wrap themselves up tightly, chanting "My lord will return", "The world will collapse for the second time", "History is all It's a lie, the only one who saves the world is the true **** of the night" and such crazy words ("Fortunately, they didn't say anything about'the long night is coming, everywhere is sinister'"...Hey, look at it, Ryan, the fat sheep is about to turn around! ——Qier Thales is watching the show.).

　　 But the drama they rehearsed is really a good way to understand the world without spending money after crossing the illiterate.

　　 Well, maybe it’s not that good-Thales followed Gilbert, thinking of the drama "Midnight is in the mortal world, personally save the 33 princesses", can’t help but curl his lips. .

　　 Among the various dramas, ranging from absurdity to persuading the world's policemen, Thales is more impressed, there is a scene called "The Day of Disaster, When the World Ends".

　　That is the end battle.

　　 Thales still remembers that in those black and red backgrounds, a masked man in black clothes, holding a chain and a sickle, with heavy steps, heavy footsteps surrounding the entire stage, playing music here She always became gloomy and scary, and she often frightened the children watching curiously in the audience.

　　 wherever the black-clothed men went, they wore various headgears to represent actors from all over the world crying, screaming, and falling back and forth on the stage.

　　He still remembers the shuddering words in the backstage chanting like crows:

　　"The disaster is coming! The disaster is coming! He will not let go of any of this world! Until everyone is captured by the disaster!"

　　 "Wake up, my compatriots, wake up, wake up! Disasters swept everything, the river of prison poured down the earth, the sky fell to the earth, the end of the world is coming!"

　　"The gods are always on our side, the demons are side by side with us, the emperor stands behind us, and the hero is in front of us! Fight for life, and the night is eternal!"

　　"My compatriots! The disaster is coming! There is a saying in the night, the ferry boatman in the prison river is not an abomination, an inhuman evil fruit demon flower, but it can corrupt the heart! I would rather take a sword and go back with the hero's glory than The servants of that calamity!"

　　 "This is the final battle, regardless of each other, regardless of the sage!"

　　 "The end of the battle! The dark night covers the earth, and the disaster will surely dissipate!"

　　 In Thales’s not-so-clear memory, in the neurotic play, the so-called “disaster” character with chains and sickles killed countless creatures until they were defeated by the entire world alliance.

　　 But until the end, the priests and actors of the Temple of Dark Night did not explain what the ‘disaster’ was. There were also children on the street asking questions. The priests always asked the children to say "I_shall_serve_while_the_Dark_Night_returns" (I_shall_serve_while_the_Dark_Night_returns) before they were willing to give them a maltose, and then smiled and said, "Disaster is the world." The enemy".

　　Thyls, who was thinking about it, didn’t notice, Gilbert had led him to the steps on the second floor.

　　 I have seen three giant portraits of the kings of the stars neatly hung on the wall.

　　 "Lusaka Colvin was a famous portrait painter in the period of Mindis III. His portraits emphasize the combination of history, relying on the environment and movements, and the most fascinating expression of the spiritual temperament of each character." Gilbert Standing under the portraits of the three princes of stars, dazed and authentic.

　　 "'The Three Kings of the Stars', this is Colvin's masterpiece, the few kings and monarchs, just as your Majesty introduced you before."

　　The works of famous artists? Thales raised his head and looked closely at the portrait in the middle of the wall-the young knight with a gun and riding a horse, looking at his posture, and his seven-pointed star badge.

　　's quick glance before was too hasty, and until today, Thales, who had no time to observe carefully, only then noticed that this seemingly brave and brave knight has already curled his spear and his crown has been damaged and mottled. , The armor was covered with blood, and the mounts showed tiredness. The knights behind them were all injured. Some charged with shields, some were covered in blood, some had armor scattered, some were supporting each other immediately, and some even had only one arm. .

　　 In the distant setting sun, there are mountains of corpses and weapons everywhere, few people standing, lonely decorated with a fierce battlefield, blood and darkness dominate the remaining colors.

　　 Except for the young seven-star crowned knight who seems to be roaring frantically, the six people behind him all have lonely and sad expressions, but they still show a resolute look, and follow Tormund I, who raised his gun and roared forward, all the way forward.

　　 Seeing this, Thales moved in his heart and suddenly remembered the words of King Kessel V:

　　"That was Tormund I, the last prince of the final empire, the founder of the stars, the'King of Revival', and his bravery has been extolled in the end battle."

　　 "He is—" Thales moved slightly and looked at Gilbert beside him.

　　 "Yes,'King_of_Renaissance' (King_of_Renaissance) Tormund Canstar," Gilbert replied with a deep expression: "The end battle more than six hundred years ago, the empire that survived the Western Front Among the commanders, the person with the highest status."

　　"also your ancestor, the founder of the post-war star kingdom."

　　West Front Theater, surviving, commander of the empire, with the highest status.

　　 Thales immediately grabbed the keyword.

　　"The commander of the empire? Which empire? What is his status? Are there other theaters besides the Western Front? Who are Tormund's enemies?"

　　 Gilbert has become accustomed to Thales’ way of learning, interrupting and asking questions (or even refuting) at any time, and he doesn’t think he smiles and said:

　　"Of course it is the only ‘Empire’ (the_Empire)."

　　"The only empire?"

　　 "Yes," Gilbert took a breath and smiled in remembrance: "Did you know, Mr. Thales, our known world was a vast land shaped like an arm. And we , The original place of the stars, right on the wrist—"

　　 Thales looked up suddenly: "What?"

　　 He interrupted Gilbert in shock: "A piece—a whole piece of land? The East Continent and the West Continent separated by the Sea of ​​End——"

　　 But Gilbert just smiled, raised a hand, and motioned for him to be quiet before the portrait of the king.

　　"Listen to me, the answer lies in the end battle."

　　 But Thales has already figured out the answer not far from the truth in his brain.

　　The Ending War, wait, the ocean between the two continents is called the Ending Sea?

　　Two continents?

　　 Thinking of this, Thales couldn’t help but vomit: “Gilbert, uh, you’re not trying to tell me that a powerful external creature with a legion invaded our world, and then we’re fighting. It defeated its intentions, but inadvertently broke a magical well and blew the world into two continents?"

　　 Gilbert's smile stopped: "What?"

　　"Then the one in the west is still called Kalimdor——"

　　 "Hush—" Gilbert smiled helplessly and interrupted him: "My little sir, you do have the ability to write novels and make up stories. If it were not for your identity, you might be able to be a Excellent bards or poets, but we are now taking history lessons."

　　 Thales shrugged, closed his mouth, and put a piece of memory that he had just retrieved into the depths of his brain—still related to the girl with the second form of illness.

　　 Gilbert looked at him patiently, until Thales stopped speaking and became solemn in front of the portrait of the ancestor, and then continued to explain:

　　" More than 3,000 years ago, after mankind realized the extraordinary powers, there were an endless stream of super-level and extreme masters. The military's combat power and equipment continued to strengthen. After years of friction, war and alliance, mankind finally It merged into a whole, and the wars with the tribes were victorious year after year, becoming the master of the known world on the mainland."

　　 Gilbert showed reverence and longing, eyes erratic, faint and authentic:

　　"They established a giant country covering the whole world, deterring the continent, and touching almost all corners of the known land. The northern people, the Ludol people, the Neda people, the Kailunsa people, the red earth people, except A small number of Far Easterners, almost all humans are under its protection and rule"

　　"They did not set the name of the country, or the name of the dynasty, the highest ruler, calling themselves the "emperor"."

　　"The country with no precedent in history-it is called ‘Empire’ (the_Empire)."

　　 Thales took a slight breath, but what he felt in his heart was no glory or pride, but sorrow and sighs.

　　The war shapes the country, and the country shapes the war ("War_made_the_state, _and_the_state_made_war")-he silently added a sentence from the master's book in his previous life.

　　 Integration and war, to put it simply, to create an unprecedented giant country, how much war, blood and killing is needed?

　　 But Gilbert's expression dimmed immediately:

　　"At the height of the empire's rule, a new and terrifying race was born silently among human beings."

　　"They are immortal, immortal, indestructible, unmatched in strength, unmatched in energy, and powerless to resist, and even true gods and demons are incomparable. What's more terrifying is that they have humans and even races. Completely different thinking and behavioral standards, unreasonable, crazy, and difficult to communicate."

　　 Thales froze slightly.

　　 The blue-clothed and brown-haired neurotic figure seems to appear in front of him again, with his mouth closed: "standing on the sky, surpassing the gods, looking down on all beings..."

　　 Thales recovered, only to see Gilbert sighed:

　　"They are like disasters. When they descend on the world, they continue to bring chaos and disasters, blood and killing-the once great empire gradually declined under heavy blows, and eventually perished."

　　New race?

　　 was born among humans?

　　 is unreasonable?

　　Disaster?

　　 Thales remembered something, and his heart began to beat irregularly.

　　 "At the time of Tomund I, the century when the empire calendar and the end calendar alternate, the empire has been perished for more than 300 years, and the world of mankind and all races has returned to chaos and division."

　　"The'final empire' that Tormond is in is just another country built by the remnants of the remnants of the empire, with completely different systems, territories, and people."

　　 "Historians are customary to call the former great empire the ‘Ancient Empire’ (the_Ancient_Empire), and the latter weak empire as the ‘Final Empire’ (the_Final_Empire)."

　　"The final empire, in 1609 of the imperial calendar, which is the year when the Ending War took place, was only a medium-sized country in the world. The spiritual heritage and orthodox name of the ancient empire did not bring glory and Inheritance, but burden and hatred."

　　"The past vassals were ambitious, the vassals of all races were ready to move, and the countless nations were watching."

　　"Although it inherited the glory of the ancient empire, in the end the empire made enemies everywhere, with constant wars, heavy taxes, successive years of civil chaos, the imperial family faint, and the decline of the rule."

　　 "Seeing the glory of the empire will end in the 16th year of the empire's calendar."

　　"But also in this year, that race, those disasters, have deceived many believers and followers all over the world, with unprecedented power-officially declare war on the entire civilized world!"

　　 Thales gave a slight shock.

　　 It was logically clear that he had caught several logical errors in this narrative, but he did not speak out immediately, but endured it.

　　What is the disaster? What does it mean to be born from humans?

　　Since you have that kind of power, why don’t you make persistent efforts after the ancient empire is destroyed, and have to delay it until the final empire before officially declare war?

　　Since it is completely unreasonable, why should they recruit followers and believers like a true god?

　　If they have a completely different mindset from humans, why do they declare war? Conquer the world? What a joke!

　　 This is a story full of flaws!

　　 But Thales realized that this was not Gilbert deliberately misleading, but that there was a lot of information that Thales could not understand at all.

　　 is just like the secret of the **** year before.

　　 "Those disasters," Thales swallowed, and asked slightly nervously, "What is it?"

　　 Gilbert was not surprised by Thales’ question, but he did not notice that Thales’ tone was less confident and steady than usual.

　　 He sighed: "After the end of the war, all news and sources of'disasters' are blocked and banned. This is a secret agreement between the gods, demons and the world, and it is also a countermeasure to prevent their number from increasing. But you Sooner or later, it’s okay to tell you."

　　 Gilbert took a deep breath and said sternly: "Those calamities were once members of human beings or other intelligent races. But desire, greed and ambition have driven them to lose their essence-alien Although most of the time they are indistinguishable from us, and even hidden among us, they are truly alien races."

　　"In the eyes of the folks and most people, these disasters have a common name:

　　Magic Master. "

　　 At that moment, Thales exhausted all his control to suppress his body, so as not to tremble too much.

　　"In their eyes, the magician is just another type of ability who seems to be on the same list as the powerhouse such as Terminator knights and power fighters."

　　 Gilbert looked cold and continued: "But only the countries and temples participating in the battle for the end know that these so-called magicians have been a disaster for history for thousands of years, **** debts, before and after the end Two generations of empires, the terrible'catastrophe' that almost destroyed the entire world!"

　　"Only when they try to kill a magician, they will find something wrong, they will notice the clue-it is often too late."

　　"Because of the magician, those calamities will never die, will never be destroyed or broken."

　　 "Little Mister," Gilbert said solemnly, "If you encounter a magician in the future, protect yourself first. After you are safe, try to ask for help... We have a set of measures against the magician's weakness. They, eliminate the harm."

　　 Touching the cut on his right hand, Thales's face remained unchanged, but his teeth were trembling slightly-I'm afraid he has already seen those "disasters".

　　 Even he himself might be—no, I can’t think of it this way, it’s too dangerous.

　　 For his own safety, although Thales is full of doubts in his heart, he must not ask too hastily—who knows what he will see in an emergency?

　　 Gilbert paused here, seeming to wonder why Thales did not speak and ask questions. But he was not too suspicious. Instead, he closed his eyes and thought about something, before speaking softly a few minutes later:

　　"There is no need to doubt their horror—the power of these disasters is too strong. More than six hundred years ago, under the leadership of the strong, our most powerful army and their minions, in blood and Fighting in madness is endless. After breaking through the periphery, the most elite knights and fighters surrounded those disasters, but they could only die in piles."

　　 Thales remembered the drama of the Temple of Dark Night. On the stage, one by one actors fell on the path that "Cause" walked.

　　"The gods descended into the world one by one, and then fell. The demons also climbed onto the ground and then destroyed. The strong men of all races went to the battlefield and sacrificed."

　　"The war lasted for many years, and after paying a terrible price, we only studied their weaknesses and finally defeated those disasters."

　　 Thales clenched his fists, and Ashida’s lonely words seemed to ring in his ears: "We lost~IndoMTL.com~ Gilbert’s words interrupted his memory of Ashida:

　　" But the power of the cursed disasters is too terrifying. In the final pursuit and decisive battle above the extreme realm, the cursed disasters, the **** who can almost destroy the world ——"

　　 was carefully observing Thales, who was charging by Tormond, shaking his whole body, and suddenly knew the next story.

　　 Gilbert calmly said the next sentence:

　　 "Sinked the most vulnerable piece of land in the center of the continent as a four-way connection, and all the creatures and materials on it were destroyed."

　　"After the land sinks, the after wave of energy spreads, pushing the entire continent away in two directions. In just five years, the ocean formed has been bottomless, splitting the known land and habitat It became two continents and countless islands."

　　"This is the famous ‘Great Fission’ (the_Great_Fission) more than six hundred years ago."

　　"The_Final_War, this is the end."

　　 Gilbert exhaled a long breath, and the following words made Thales stunned for a moment:

　　"The land of the sinking sea encompasses the entire territory of the final empire."

　　 "The Final Empire."

　　 "End here."
