After finishing speaking, Fen had an idea and changed the topic and asked: "If you say this, does it mean that you lied before? In fact, there are descendants of those four people left?"
"No way." Lin hurriedly defended: "As far as the history I know, in the same era, all the people who could die have died, and no one is using the inheritance left from that era. There may be cheating, but
I can't even withstand verification. But looking at what happened at Muye Castle before, an old subordinate could appear, hiding behind history, secretly developing his own power, and it seems to be developing quite impressively. So I don't
I can guarantee that there will be other similar examples that will appear before me again. After all, all I know is the history that has been made public, or some rural legends, poetry and unofficial history. I also don’t care about the kind of hidden old things.
If you have to take responsibility, it would be too unfair."
After staring at the man in front of him for a while, Fen gave up his intention to interrogate him. He reopened the window in his glasses and prepared to continue the half-optimized work.
However, the brown-skinned and black-haired girl was slightly worried, and she rarely asked: "Sister,...don't you still want to die?" As soon as Kaya spoke, the other girl also became worried and looked at her as well.
To a certain lich who doesn't take his life or death seriously.
Fen was also a little surprised by such a question. But after thinking about it seriously, she said: "That's not the case. Today's era is much better than when I was there. I would say that I am tired of living, mostly because of boredom.
Caused."
Having said that, people's worries increased instead of decreasing. Halumi even asked: "What about the remaining half?"
Fen felt a little distressed by the way the two girls were worried about her, and really wanted to hold them in her arms and cherish them. In order to appease them, and as if to convince herself again, Fen said:
"In the beginning, the reason why I did this was because I wanted to take revenge on the old gods. In order to kill the gods, I borrowed the power of the rulers; in order to wipe out the faith of the old gods and cut off their way to recovery, I established
A huge force, using all means to suppress everything. When I realized that faith is difficult to eradicate, but it can be replaced by other things, at first, I chose the terror of the ruler, and later myself. When hunting old people
When God became a tasteless routine, I was as insensitive as the previous group of townspeople under the oppression of vampires. Until those four young and bold little guys came to me,
I realized that I had become the old gods that I hated at the beginning, and my actions were the same as them, even more terrifying. Not only that, those four people were able to appear in front of me unscathed.
, it also shows that the group of subordinates I lead are also looking forward to my death. Do they want to replace me? Or are they trying to retaliate for what I have done to them? I don’t care about any of this. I only know one thing, that is
I'm tired. I asked those four young people to seal me up, because I no longer know how to meet my own death. As for those betrayers, what the world will become has already been revealed.
It didn't matter to me anymore. Then, I was resurrected. The only thing to be thankful for is that this era is much better than my era. Without the old gods, although the mistakes I made still have traces, at least they have not lasted to this day. I
I can find knowledge that I don’t know yet and goals worth pursuing. It would be a shame to leave such a world again.”
The confession of a certain lich made Lin feel sad. He said that when he was on Earth, he played management or strategy games and deleted the save files after playing bad games. It was almost the same feeling. It's just that there are no save and load commands in life.
Who can really come back?
However, this kind of idea only existed in the days before time travel, when people had accepted their fate. Who would have thought that this big drama of time travel would happen to them. Then should they continue to live as useless as they did on earth?
I believe that the Lich had similar thoughts. He allowed four young men to dismember themselves. When he opened his eyes, it was already a world thousands of years later. This world has no baggage from the past, no heaviness from the past, and is full of opportunities to start over.
Listening to the rumble of the carriage and the tapping of horses' hooves, the four people stopped talking to each other along the way. Maybe it was the subverted view of history that made people confused, maybe it was Fen's confession that made people feel overwhelmed. In short, in Qingfeng
, this sense of silence is quite enjoyable. Everyone seems to be doing their own thing, but their thoughts are... on the noise?
Damn it, the existence in that container can easily affect everyone's thoughts. Except for the Lich who is at ease, Lin and the other three masters and disciples are all in a mess. No! Maybe there is a reason for Fen to talk more than usual.
It's also influenced by that.
It's better to arrive at Shanling City as early as possible. Make a better container and secure that thing tightly.
After the fifth camping trip, the Mountain Magic Tower appeared in everyone's sight. It was a four-story magic tower built on the ridge of the mountain, with cliffs on both sides. The shape of the round tower was simple, but it was like that
Its shape allows it to withstand strong winds from high altitudes.
Such a terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack meant that when the last demon king army passed through this place, it not only suffered from the condescending attack of the magic tower, but was helpless against it.
The rebels who were chasing after them relied on this terrain to build a solid bridgehead. A steady stream of military supplies was transported here, allowing the rebels and the Demon King's Army to compete for one hilltop, one hilltop, and one basin after another.
, and finally destroy it.
There are several rows of wooden tracks on the mountain under the round tower. These are the elevator tracks that connect the foot of the mountain, the mountainside and the Magic Tower. The basin within the scope of Shanling City is not the largest in the Basque Country, but it is definitely the earliest and most developed.
A good place.
The reason is of course that in order to fight against the Demon King's army, the entire mountain was transformed by the dwarves into a huge natural fortress, gathering all the rebel troops stationed here. And in order to transport supplies, even though the mountains were endless, they still opened up a cannon.
The avenue for carriages and horses makes the Tower of the Mountains an important transportation hub in the Basque Country.
In addition, the Mountain Tower has the dual functions of sight and large-scale attack with strategic-level magic. The Demon King's army, which attempted to surprise the rebel positions several times, not only failed but also suffered heavy losses. Such a record was protected by the magic tower.
The sense of security has also become a reason for crowds to gather, especially a large number of magicians.
When the Magicians Association demarcated the Basque Country and decided on the headquarters of the district branch, the Mountain Tower naturally became the only choice in everyone's mind.
Hundreds of years have passed since the war. During this period, even though the war raged in Middle-earth, it did not affect this border area in the eyes of most sapiens. It continued to accept people who fled here, and competed with the monsters and wild beasts in the mountains for land.
It took developing basins everywhere to achieve today's scale.
The fortress that Shanling City originally housed the army has also become a living area. Of course, those who stay here are not ordinary people, but the magicians and the families who first came here to establish and maintain Shanling City.
But the fortress that could originally accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, after changing to a lifestyle, it is of course impossible to cram the same number of people into it. Especially the space inside the mountain was originally used for military fortresses. Of course, in terms of comfort and convenience,
There will be many inhumane places. Therefore, the plain at the foot of the mountain has also become a gathering place for people.
Hundreds of years of development have formed the current urban pattern with man-made buildings from the foot of the mountain to the ridgeline. From a distance, the city looks like a staircase, developing upward step by step, which is very spectacular.
It is completely different from the Wulian City in the Sijia District, where due to the development of commerce, the city has continued to expand and has been reduced to a decorative city wall. In the Basque Country, there is a threat of monsters, so in order to protect the people, the mountain city walls are built on the ground.
But it is quite tall and strong. In particular, there are three three-story magic towers built along the line, dividing the city wall into four sections.
This is because a king-level monster once tried to attack the city. Because it was a sudden attack, and the edge of the forest was quite close to Shanling City, even with the protection of the magic tower, there were still heavy casualties in the gathering place on the plain.
As for burning forests, unless a few mountains are directly bald, the distance of several tens (kilometers) is only a few steps for a king-level monster, which is meaningless. Even if the mountain tower can give early warning, the reaction speed is not
It cannot compare to the mobility of a king-level monster.
This threat made the local magicians build magic towers as part of the defense system, and even three of them were built at once.
Such expenditure has its value. The king-level monster that eats marrow and knows taste was killed in a subsequent attack. The Homo sapiens party had a carnival. Then several waves of monsters attacked, and gradually,
There will no longer be such a thing as Warcraft attacking a city.
With a city wall, there will naturally be some protection. Traveling between different countries on Earth requires visas and passports. Even within some countries, movement between different administrative regions requires special permission. In the Lost Land, people's actions are also subject to certain restrictions.
Similar restrictions. This restriction is also one of the reasons why many adventure groups and mercenary groups rarely conduct cross-regional activities.
In order to avoid trouble, most people will choose unprotected towns or villages as a resting place during the journey. In these places, you usually only need to pay a toll, and no identity checks will be carried out.
If you have to go through the customs defense, except for some cities that do not welcome outsiders, which require special permission, most cities only require documents that can identify you. Then pay an entry fee.
The cities under the jurisdiction of magicians are even simpler. As long as you prove that you are a magician, you can usually travel unimpeded. Of course, a city entry fee is also indispensable. And wherever you go, you must abide by the local rules, whether it is the earth or the mysterious land.
it's the same.
So after seeing Shanling City, Lin and the others took out the magician's shawl and put it on themselves. This is the easiest way to identify the magician's identity. Not only is there a mark of the division on the back, but also on the shoulders.
There is the magician's personal coat of arms, if any.
