The immortal black snake just wants to live simply

But after witnessing that day, the wind and snow stopped as far as the eye could see, and the dark cloudy sky suddenly became sunny. She had to admit the power of the gods.

I also somewhat understand why Capt warned himself over and over again not to try to confront Arthur again.

The god named Yeragond is just a little-known god of the snow, but he still has such powerful power.

So what can an evil god with a 'famous reputation' spread across almost all areas of this land do?

In Leitania, Mace had actually heard a rumor.

Rumor has it that when the first Victoria soldiers set foot on Lingones, the largest mobile city at the time, they faced frantic resistance from the Gallic Guards stationed inside the city.

There was no surrender flag in sight.

There was no one on the street, and all the doors and windows were closed. The soldier could only hear the nervous heartbeat in his own chest.

Just when he was about to take a look around, a scepter unreasonably occupied the soldier's entire field of vision.

The sudden anomaly seemed to have transcended space and time, violated the laws of physics, and was deeply imprinted on the soldiers' minds.

That's a... scepter.

【Staff of Ursus】

The Eternal Grand Duke of Ursus is one step faster than Victoria's warship.

……

Of course, such rumors and unofficial histories are generally not credible. After all, the history textbooks of Victoria, Letania, and Ursus all tried their best to exaggerate the impact of each in the battle of the four emperors.

Before the Twin Queens took the stage, someone in Letania had advocated that the Witch King had directly destroyed an entire Gaul legion by himself.

Anyway, Mace didn’t believe it before.

But now, she has reservations about the veracity of those claims.

……

"Calm down? How can you make me calm down?"

Nohis said in a cold tone.

"Perfectionism, arrogance. Enxiodis always wants to achieve the most perfect results, and always believes that he can really achieve it...it is obviously easier to completely destroy the other two companies and then rebuild them than the decent approach he originally imagined. .”

Sitting on the sofa, Mace picked up another newspaper.

It is reporting tomorrow's annual "Holy Hunt" of Kjerag, and the president of Kalan Trading will perform the Holy Mountain Ceremony and ascend the Holy Mountain today.

She said lightly:

"You also said that it was your original idea... Besides, the most ideal situation should be that the other two families did not stand in front of him from the beginning, and he persuaded the great elder and Yeragonde in his own way, right? ?”

After hearing this, Nohis looked at Mace as if he were a fool. Then he recalled that his spell had no effect on him and that his attack was very heavy, so he restrained himself and withdrew his gaze.

He snorted coldly:

"We are not playing a do-over game...I will take action if necessary."

Hearing this, Mace put down the newspaper and asked in surprise:

"You don't really think that the cards in Enxiodis' hand can be effective on the gods you believe in, do you? Whether it is the Mountain Snow Ghost Troops who have been trained by Victoria and have relatively advanced equipment; the Kalan trade has been opened in Kjerag in recent years Those factories; Enxiodis’ status in the hearts of the Sherag people is far from being able to compete with your millennia of faith.”

Mace looked at Nohis with the same eyes as a fool, but he was more straightforward.

Of course, Nohis knew that the cards in Enxiodis' hand could not compete with Yelagund. He also saw the miracle performed by Yeragund that day.

But one thing is actually wrong.

That is, Nohis does not believe in Yelagund, even more so than Enxiodis.

If Yeragond really existed, then why did he watch his parents being unfairly wronged in the first place?Why did he watch his family being expelled from Kjerag?

After Nohis witnessed the miracle of Yeragund that day, he thought about it repeatedly and finally came to two inferences.

One is that Yeragonde is so high above the rest that he no longer cares about these 'little things'.

In that case, Nohis is not so much disbelief, but more resentful of gods who enjoy worship and belief but stand by and watch.

But there is another possibility.

That is, the god named Yeragond has limits, and he cannot perfectly take care of all aspects of Kjerag.

In that case, although Nohis could not be resentful towards him, he would not believe in it either.

after all……

[God cannot be known, so his power is unpredictable]

Beings that have limits, and that can even be perceived by people, should not be called gods.

At best, it can only be regarded as a powerful existence.

In the eyes of Nohis, the existence named Yeragond can only take Kjelag so far.

……

Of course, even if Nohis did not believe in Yeragond, he had to admit that the power he displayed at that time represented absolute power in Kjerag today.

But so what?

Nohis was not so whimsical as to kill a god.

but……

If the big moves he makes can make the gods feel troublesome or even painful...

So even if Enxiodis's persuasion fails, the power of science and technology will definitely remain in the hearts of all Sherag people.

It will also attract the attention of the gods.

Chapter 314: Anxious, righteous and eternal, defending the rights of beasts, Black Snake Sauce

"Is it necessary to go?"

"Well, my parents have decided that Kjerag can no longer accommodate our family."

"I believe it was not done by my uncle or aunt, and it has nothing to do with you."

"...But I don't believe it."

At that time, young Nohis himself did not know that Enxiodis's parents really died in an accident.

So he chose to confess his concerns to his friends.

"What do you mean?"

"I don't know if my father and my mother really didn't do anything, and I don't know...if I indirectly became an accomplice."

"...Then I will forgive you too. No one respects my father more than you, I know that."

"So Enxiodis, do you remember our dream?"

"Of course I remember that the two of us will work together to turn Kjerag into an extremely powerful country...but you have to leave."

"I will return."

"Really?"

"Yes. My parents plan to move to Victoria, and I will go to school there... This is a good opportunity. I will learn the most advanced knowledge. When I finish learning, I will come back to help you."

"Hey, you guy... In this case, let me tell you an idea of ​​mine. I haven't told anyone else yet."

"what?"

"I plan to leave Kjerag when Enya and Enshia come of age... Just like you, I am going to learn a lot of things and then come back."

"..."

'As the future head of the family, is this something you can do if you leave Kjerag for a long time? '

Young Nohis looked at his friend.

He was no longer aware of the sad and melancholy look on the other person's face due to the death of his parents.

All he could see was a pair of determined eyes.

So, the young man who was forced to leave his hometown made an agreement with the young man who hid his weakness in his heart.

"I will come to you when the time comes."

……

Dayan, in an unknown small pavilion in an unknown mountain.

Zhu Jiuyin sat alone in front of the stone table, and there was a Go game on the stone table.

Half of the chess pieces have been placed on the chessboard, and black and white seem to be indistinguishable.

But on the opposite side, there was no one.

All that was left was an empty wine cup.

It was a slightly quaint-looking vessel made of bronze.

But a cold male voice came from the cup.

"...Your chess moves are still as unpredictable as ever."

"Haha, but it can't compare to you after all, right?"

Zhu Jiuyin fell slowly.

But then he shook his head helplessly.

Although the chess game seemed evenly matched, Black Snake understood that he was about to lose again.

The cool male voice in the cup didn't take it seriously, and then gave instructions on how to move.

If you have a wine cup and no hands, you can only play chess by dictation.

"Oh, I'm a little sad. I can't compare with Xi in painting, and I can't compare with you in chess... I've been hit hard by your family."

While complaining, Zhu Jiuyin took the opportunity to clear the chessboard.

Along with the powerful cyclone, the chess pieces were drawn into the chess jar one by one.

The man's slightly speechless voice came from the cup.

"Can I understand why you're admitting defeat?"

"You say yes, that is."

"..."

After a while, a cynicism with a hint of anger came from the cup.

"No matter how many masters of painting you have devoured, or who imitated the thinking of outstanding chess players, as long as you have not found your own [meaning], your chess moves and paintings are nothing more than poor stitching... You have already Are you not even willing to accept your own failure?"

Zhu Jiuyin heard the rare anger contained in the voice in the cup. Not only was he not afraid, but he asked in surprise:

"It's strange. In the past, you wouldn't say anything even if I regretted playing chess. Why are you so angry today... Could it be that a few days ago, you and Taifu Dayan lost in a chess game? Is it true? "

Without waiting for refutation, Zhu Jiuyin said enthusiastically:

"Hey! Let me guess, if you just play chess, it will never make you so irritated. After all, chess is just a game to you... and you blindly follow the rules of chess. Rules, then it’s really boring.”

Zhu Jiuyin yawned boredly.

"One hundred and eighty of your chess pieces cannot fall outside of Great Yan... And even if you are in Great Yan, why do you impose so many restrictions on yourself for no reason? Have you really bowed to them?"

The voice in the cup replied slightly unwillingly:

"That's because I entered the game too late and my timing was too poor... You said you were hit by Xiao Shiyi's calligraphy and painting, but do you know how much Xiao Shiyi envied you for being able to walk freely here? A large piece of land, not subject to the constraints of the imperial court?"

"Restraint by the imperial court? Isn't that the result of your weakness and concession? Why do they take our contribution to them as a matter of course, and while demanding our strength, they always point their swords at us... In the final analysis, How many monsters are there like Lao Tianshi? If you and your brothers and sisters kill without distinction, and run away after fighting a wave in each mobile city, are those legions moving faster than you?"

"...Then you really don't know my brothers and sisters."

"No, no, no, I know you better than you think, although this is just a hypothesis... Guess how long it will take after doing this, the three princes and the emperor of Dayan will be angry because of the people's grievances. The threat of foreign countries, bowing down because of their own safety? They have no ability to deal with you at the same time. In the war a thousand years ago, they have been using tricks... Killing the gods with the help of Sui, and then being severely injured by the same people in Sui Taking the opportunity to do something to them, well, it fits my imagination of those mortals."

"...What if they don't bow their heads?"

"Then you are really worried. Some of them will definitely bow their heads... The white chess has a wide position, and the chess players have more worries. And existences like us don't need to follow those boring rules. As long as you If brothers and sisters unite as one, Dayan will have nothing to fear!"

"The Eternal Grand Duke of Ursus is really embarrassed to say such a thing...or Black Snake, don't you even want to play chess?"

"Sorry, sorry, I just have such a bad habit, that is, the closer I am to the people, the harder it is to hide my true feelings. If there is any offense, please forgive me~"
