The white-haired queen seemed to have some inspiration, while the black-haired queen beside her was surprised and confused when she heard this, and asked in a hoarse voice:
"Why? This is our best chance to eradicate the remnants of the Witch King in one fell swoop! Although several emperors are involved, we now have solid evidence. As long as we unite with the other emperors and take away all their power, we will reduce the number of competitors, and those emperors will definitely agree to seize power!"
"...But the question is, what if the names on this list are not all?" The White-haired Queen was obviously more rational, or perhaps the Black-haired Queen's voice problem had a little impact on her mentality. Upon hearing this, the Black-haired Queen immediately replied:
"Even if not all of them, it is enough to deter them. With so many nails being pulled out, anyone would be scared! It is impossible for them to gather a large number of remnants of the Witch King in a short period of time. We can continue to maintain Leithania for at least twenty years!"
"…What about twenty years from now?"
"Twenty years later? We can't even get past this hurdle right now!"
The Gemini Queen had a small dispute over this issue, but it was just a matter of time. The Gemini Queens never had any misunderstandings or resentments with each other. The twin sisters had survived the most difficult times and would not quarrel easily.
The Gemini Queens continued to watch the movie, and after making up his mind, Chenier took the initiative to find the Witch King and Cretaceous, and then offered a one million investment and the TV station's support for the release of the movie, hoping that this movie could help their TV station reverse the situation.
In this regard, the protagonist played by Bai Ke naturally agreed. And all these changes happened to Bai Ke in the movie.
The Chalcedon in the movie has a girlfriend, and that girlfriend obviously has some Casimir blood, because the person who plays this role is Maria, Mainna's niece.
By the way, Mainna himself also played a role, but unlike in "Brave Heart" where he played an old soldier, this time Mainna played an old man who was in a wheelchair and suffered from Alzheimer's disease.
In the movie, Manna is Maria's grandfather. Maria had invited Bai Cha to her home long before, but Manna's grandfather with Alzheimer's disease did not respond at all.
But this time, there was one more person who came to visit. When the voice of the Witch King played by Black Key sounded, everyone saw that the muddled eyes of the old man sitting in the wheelchair suddenly became clearer. And the face that was as old as tree bark finally revealed a look of fear.
"This is impossible……"
In the movie, Maenna turned around in a daze, and saw her granddaughter holding the hand of the Witch King and slowly walking into the house. The Witch King did not hide his admiration for his granddaughter when facing the old man Kuranta, and said:
"It's an honor. Your granddaughter is a woman to be admired!"
Because Maria had served as the Witch King's assistant in the plot, helping him to use electronic equipment, the Witch King thought highly of her. But when Mayenna saw the Witch King like this, her expression was almost immediately filled with fear. She leaned on her cane with one hand and said in a trembling voice:
"This is the Witch King! Do something..."
Bai Ke and Maria also noticed Mainna's panic. They immediately realized that the old man might have experienced that era. Bai Ke also reminded him immediately:
"It's not true, she thinks it's true."
"Think about your family..." Faced with Maria's reassurance, Mayenna was unable to hide her panic and fear, as well as her suppressed anger, and murmured to her granddaughter in front of her:
"These people...are all dead...what can we do?"
"—I was irritated at that time."
However, at this moment, the Witch King played by Black Key finally spoke. He realized that this old Kuranta was most likely from Casimir, who had once had conflicts with Letania, but now came to Letania to seek refuge. Such people are not uncommon. The Witch King had executed a large number of Casimir people in his territory in the past.
But now, he showed his "magnanimity" and "elegance" in front of the old man, and said lightly: "I will make sure that no Steam Knight of Victoria and Silver Spear Pegasus of Casimir can enter the territory-"
"Who said anything about the Silver Spear Pegasus?!"
However, the Witch King's dignified words immediately aroused the deep hatred of the old man with Alzheimer's disease. Mayenna stood up suddenly, and with the help of Maria, he raised the cane in his hand and pointed it at the Witch King, shouting:
"No one died from their attack! It was you who turned them into artificial Originium bombs! It was you who killed them!"
"Grandpa, this is an imitator, a comedian..." Maria didn't notice anything wrong at this moment. She still firmly believed that the person in front of her was just an imitator. But not far away, Bai Ke's slightly dull eyes showed that he had obviously noticed something.
Along the way, the man in front of him was constantly "imitating" the Witch King, and had always behaved exactly like the Witch King. At first he just found it strange, but now the reaction of the old man who had personally experienced the rule of the Witch King made him suspicious.
"He looks exactly the same." But Mayenna ignored the others. The moment he saw the Witch King, he recognized him and murmured:
"He said the same thing as before... At first, people laughed at him..."
As he spoke, Maenna staggered to the front of the Witch King. He looked directly at the man in front of him who he hated, the man who had killed his family, and said word by word:
"I know who you are... I haven't forgotten anything..."
"……gentlemen."
"--go out!!"
Mainna's sudden outburst made the originally kind-looking old man turn hideous in an instant, and he roared madly, even trying to use his cane as a weapon to attack the man in front of him whom he hated!
At this moment, all the audiences who were originally immersed in the success of the Witch King and even began to expect the Witch King to take advantage of such momentum to regain power were suddenly pulled back to their senses by such a scene.
This scene made them suddenly realize that although the Witch King at the beginning of the movie did not seem as crazy and cruel as they imagined, he showed wisdom and intelligence that they were not aware of.
But... those crazy and brutal methods that had been publicized countless times by the Gemini Queens also came from the hands of this man!
Those human experiments, artificial infected people, artificial Originium bombs, and the massacre of all foreigners in the country. Even if they had fought for Leitania and paid taxes, he was determined to kill all those who were not of Leitanian descent.
All of these were still done by the Witch King...these are indelible facts.
They just now worshipped such a person, who was so crazy and inhumane that he slaughtered tens of thousands of people...
"I never expected this... It's so scary."
In the movie, the Witch King and Cretaceous sat together, still unable to help but sigh about this matter, with a tone of disbelief and regret, and said lightly:
"Miss Kolomeya (Maria) is actually from Casimir... Her ancestors even have Pegasus blood. I should have thought of that when I first saw her ears and blonde hair."
The words of the Witch King made Bai Ke, who had been deep in thought, turn his head. There was no smile on his face anymore. He asked coldly, "Are you disappointed?"
"Yes." The Witch King admitted this openly, and the next moment he said something that shocked Bai Ke again, saying: "I should have been more ruthless to those who are not native to the Leithanian bloodline in the land."
“But as a politician I also have to set priorities.”
"For example, during the Leithanian Art Exhibition in 1037, there was no persecution of non-Leitanians for three weeks."
"Can't you just forget your role for once?" The irritable Bai Ke finally complained like he couldn't stand it anymore. However, the Witch King didn't mind it and chuckled:
"I know very well that you like Miss Kolomea."
"…Maybe she doesn't have that much Casimir blood, but her body is undoubtedly a little Casimir."
The Witch King in the movie did not say the second half of the sentence, but everyone understood what the Witch King meant - everyone thought that when the Witch King commented that Kolomea "didn't have that much Casimir blood", they would turn a blind eye, but they never expected that the second half of the sentence did not contain any exculpatory words.
Everyone knows what the Witch King's attitude is towards non-Leitanians. How many people of many races have died tragically at his hands, such as Filin, Pero, etc.? The Twin Queens have been promoting the Witch King's brutal rule for so many years, and these data have always been propaganda materials.
However, the people of Leithania are aware of this, but there are many who have not experienced that era and have no feelings about these data... and in this movie, the Witch King only made a small move, but it allowed them to experience what the Witch King's ruthlessness and cruelty are like.
Even if it was Bai Ke, who had always been by his side, and his girlfriend had a little bit of foreign blood, the Witch King would mercilessly list her as an object of persecution. If there really was a war, Maria's fate would probably be to become a "backup energy source" and become the Witch King's artificial source stone bomb at any time...
To the people of Leithania, the Witch King is a tyrant who brought Leithania to the pinnacle.
To non-Leitanians, the Witch King is a devil and a criminal. The glory of Leitania is built on the blood and flesh of countless innocent people in Leitania...
Among those persecuted by the Witch King are likely their families. In today's Leithania, a country with so many foreigners pouring in, how many people can be considered true "Lethanians" who meet the Witch King's standards?
The movie is almost over, and now in the eyes of all the audience, they have finally seen a "complete" Witch King.
Black and white, evil and good, wisdom and cruelty, calmness and madness... all of these are reflected in this man, and combined into a person who no matter who he is, he will find him "terrible". A terrifying person who will inevitably bring blood and rain if he really returns.
Chapter 262: The most classic dialogue of the Witch King: I rely on people like me
"Tyrant... I don't know how many emperors of different countries have been evaluated in history books with this title. However, they don't know that the tyrants that can be seen in history books are usually restrained and have not yet reached the point where they are hated by both humans and gods."
"A truly cruel and inhumane person... The historians and other people in power wish that the world would forget him. They don't even want to mention him. They just want time to erase everything and summarize this tragic era in a short line of words in the history books."
In the Great Yan Palace, the Great Yan Emperor, who had been worried and fearful, thought that Chen Qi was filming a movie about the Witch King simply to criticize Leitania under the rule of the Gemini Queens, and felt that he might not be able to win the debate with all the officials. But now that he saw that the Witch King had finally revealed his brutal side, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The Great Yan Emperor shared the same view on the twin empresses as his brother Wei Yanwu. They chose the simplest and crudest method, but also the method with the most serious sequelae, but the Great Yan Emperor could understand this.
The Witch King's cruelty, madness and actions set a very insane precedent for the creatures of Terra - he created an idea that was crazy but quickly popular among the people, and once this idea was imitated in this land, it would continue to fall into danger.
In the past, there were existences and organizations as brutal as the Witch King, but most of these organizations started out in madness and eventually perished in madness. Although terrible, they were nothing to worry about in the face of the state's violent machine.
But despite his cruelty, the Witch King also had extraordinary political talent and majesty that they had to admit. He understood that his reign of terror would be overthrown by other emperors and princes after his death.
If his regime is to continue, if Leitania can maintain its current strength and rule after his death, he must integrate his ideas and pass them on to his successor.
Then, even if his rule is really overthrown in the future, the people of Leitania will know how to follow his old path and how to gain the support of the people - at least! The highest authority of Leitania will not be handed over to foreigners!
This is the purpose of the Witch King! Such a rule and such a philosophy are not accepted by the emperors of Terra and even Leithania. Therefore, the powerful twin queens who have deep hatred for the Witch King will be elected by the emperors. That is why all the information of the Witch King was burned and he also got the support of almost all the high-level officials.
Such a dangerous theory must not be passed on, as it will cause the power of the dissatisfied people to explode. This crazy idea that devours everything must not be continued!
In the movie, the protagonist played by Bai Ke obviously understood this point. After realizing that a simple imitator could not make an old man who had experienced that era so nervous, he began to investigate the place where he first met the Witch King.
However, when Bai Ke watched his own video repeatedly and went to that place and found that it was exactly the place where the Witch King's body was displayed for public viewing, he understood.
He immediately found the place where the Witch King was, but he did not see the Witch King there. He only saw his boss, "Bellini" played by Tallulah. Anxious, White Cretaceous immediately told her his horrific discovery:
"You don't understand! That's the Witch King! He's not a comedian!"
"Why can't you listen?! That's the Witch King! He did what he always wanted to do!"
Bai Ke, who realized the seriousness of the matter, found that Tallulah had quietly called some people and began to surround him, as if trying to catch him.
The protagonist played by Bai Chase didn't know... In fact, Bellini realized the true identity of the Witch King earlier than him. She had talked to the Witch King long before the incident of the Witch King killing puppies broke out and was banned.
She investigated the Witch King's background, but found that this person seemed to have appeared out of thin air, and all his resume was blank. At that time, Bellini realized that the person in front of him might not be a simple imitator.
"We have to make sure we work with the true Witch King...how should I put this?"
"Indeed, this is a very serious crime of treason." The Witch King smiled at the time. He was quite interested in Bellini, who was willing to cooperate with him even though he knew he was the real Witch King when the Gemini Queens were in power.
He realized that this strong woman had great ambitions, perhaps no less than any of the generals he had been around in the past.
"...So you have never joined any of the Witch King's extreme factions?" Bellini was still trying to confirm the identity of the man in front of him, and the Witch King at the time did not choose to hide it anymore, and said with a chuckle:
"On the contrary, I helped to form one. My party member number is 555."
"...I hope it was just the recklessness of youth."
"Nonsense, that was in 917. I didn't act recklessly when I was young. I came up with this trick myself." The Witch King smiled and talked about the events of that year, saying, "I made up the number of 500 members at the beginning to make people think that we have a lot of people."
Although he did not say it explicitly, the Witch King had already admitted his identity to Bellini, and Bellini, knowing the Witch King's identity, still chose to support him and cooperate with him.
Obviously, Bellini has become one of the most staunch supporters of the Witch King in this time and space. And Bai Ke, who wants to stop all this, naturally becomes her target of obstruction.
As the camera turned, on the other side, the Witch King was shaking hands with the people around him one by one. These people seemed to be his current bodyguards, but unlike the previous shots, they now looked strong and strong, and they actually had the ability to truly protect the Witch King.
But at this moment, the Witch King suddenly noticed something. He turned slightly and faced Bai Cha, who was holding a magic wand pointing at him.
"…I was just wondering where you were going."
"——You are him, you are!"
However, at this moment, Bai Ke, holding the staff, also understood what he should do. However, facing the scene where his former companions knew his identity and turned against him, the Witch King did not waver at all, but only responded coldly:
"I never said I was someone else."
"I am doomed to be separated from my dearest companions."
I don't know whether the words of the Witch King were expressing his feelings for his fellow travelers in that time and space, or for the white chalk facing him. But now, the white chalk pointed his staff at the Witch King, signaling him to follow him.
Perhaps because the Witch King's injuries had not recovered, or because he was confident that he would not die, he did exactly what Bai Ke did. In this way, Bai Ke held him hostage and said with a trembling voice:
"Yes, history repeats itself... You are trying to fool people with propaganda again."
"...You don't understand." However, at this moment, the Witch King was not angry at Bai Ke's words. Instead, he was extremely calm and said the most classic dialogue in the movie word by word:
“People of that era were not deceived by propaganda.”
"The Witch-King was originally elected by the people because he clearly stated his plans."
"The Leitanians elected me."
The Witch King's casual words were like a heavy punch to the hearts of all the Leithanians, including the Emperor and the Twin Queens, because they had no way to refute these words no matter what.
Be it the emperor or the Leithanian people at that time, they were the ones who pushed this man to the pinnacle of power. The Witch King at that time had not yet revealed his brutal side, but even after he showed his fangs, he still fulfilled every promise he made to the Leithanian people.
He did what every Leitanian dreamed of doing at the time, making sure that Leitania would never compromise in front of many countries again.
After a brief conversation, the two people in the movie have reached the top of the corridor, and this place seems to be used as a filming location, because the surrounding scenery looks very much like the tower where the Witch King fell to his death.
Under the hold of the chalk, the Witch King walked to the edge step by step. He stood on the edge of the balcony again, just as it was a second before he fell from the tower.
Now, Bai Ke held up his staff, facing this familiar scene, and said with trembling body, "You are a monster."
"Really?" However, the Witch King asked back when he heard this, half of his face was exposed to the evening sunlight, and the other half was covered by the mask, just like himself - both evil and good were revealed in this person.
“Then you must also condemn those who elected this monster.”
"Are they all monsters too? They are just ordinary people."
"They entrusted their country to an extraordinary person - what would you do then? Ban the election?"
"...No, but I will stop you." There was an obvious struggle on Bai Ke's face. He seemed to be somewhat convinced by the man in front of him, but he still insisted on his own heart. He believed that the Witch King was evil and wrong.
Seeing this, the Witch King realized that he was only one step away from convincing Cretaceous, and finally said his final words:
"You never asked a question...why people follow me."
However, facing this question that seemed to be questioning Bai Ke and everyone outside the screen, the Witch King answered himself with an extremely firm tone, saying:
