The girl raised her head, glanced at the strangers curiously, and nodded slightly: "Yes, many people here know me." Her voice was flat, not out of pride, nor to promote herself as a "heroic daughter"
I just want to explain the situation to outsiders.
Hao Ren suddenly felt that the situation was a little subtle, while Y'zaks looked at the girl quietly for a while and suddenly asked: "What's your name?"
"Vanessa Hodel." The girl replied politely, not showing any strange expression because of Y'zaks' terrifying appearance.
"Have you joined the army?" Yzaks asked casually, as if meeting an orphan of an old friend. His face was expressionless, making it difficult to tell what he was thinking.
Vanessa nodded, then shook her head slightly: "I can't be a soldier, I'm going to be a secretary. My father always hoped that there would be a learned person in the family."
Yzaks nodded, took out an amulet and handed it to the girl. Your body may not be able to withstand the demon plane for a few months. This amulet can help you adapt to the environment there.
"I can't accept such valuable things." The girl was a little flustered.
"Take it, I know your father, he is a good warrior."
The girl heard that she knew her father. She thought they were comrades in arms. Then she nodded and obediently accepted the amulet.
Lan Nuo looked at the situation and took this opportunity to get involved with the girl and asked: "There hasn't been a war in the demon plane for a long time, why are they still recruiting people?"
The girl heard that everyone knew her father, so she started chatting.
"It is said that the Mad Demon King has been resurrected, and all countries have to mobilize their armies to form a defense line to prevent the demon from attacking. It is better to place the battlefield outside the country than to destroy the cities and villages that have been built so hard at home."
"So that's it. How is the current treatment of military dependents and the treatment in the army? How is your daily life? Your father told us that if we encounter one, you should take good care of it." Lan Nuo is quite familiar with the grassroots.
While working, the two of them sat on the stone pier, and everyone listened to him talking nonsense.
The little devil girl whispered: "Now I finally know how this guy lied to me that he knew his father."
…
"The treatment of military family members is actually no different from that of other ordinary people. At most, a few people from the community come to express condolences during festivals and leave some food and vegetables. There is no way, the whole country now has a rationing system, and even the families of martyrs cannot be too generous.
It’s special.” The girl didn’t seem dissatisfied with this.
"Even if the domestic supplies are tight, this is a bit unjust for the families of the martyrs. If you go to the front line to serve as a soldier, won't you be given magic items adapted to the local environment?"
"Everyone has not, haven't they all gotten used to it in the end? What's so special about me?" The girl said with a hint of stubbornness in her stubbornness.
"Okay, okay, nothing special. I'm not worried about you, but I'm telling you, it's so nice to live a good life at home, why do you want to go to the front line? Why do you think you go to the front line to fight?"
"Of course it's to protect the family and the country. If everyone wants to hide behind, wouldn't we all be slaves to the subjugation of the country?" The girl's tone seemed very excited, but she almost didn't say how dad could have friends like you.
.
"Don't be excited, don't be excited, I'm just asking, let's assume that what would happen if the human kingdom is really occupied by the Mad Demon King?"
The girl was stunned for a moment. She really hadn't thought about this question carefully. She just intuitively felt that if her country was occupied by demons, it would be quite miserable. After thinking about it, she said:
"If our country is occupied by demons, maybe everyone will become slaves of the demons, and life and death will not be in their own hands? In short, nothing good will happen."
"Well...it seems like you have never been to the front line." Lan Nuo's seemingly meaningless chat has already revealed a lot of information.
In fact, the vast majority of people don’t know why they fight. The reason why many people fight is actually just fear and prejudice against the devil. As well as the hatred accumulated in long-term battles, plus a certain degree of brainwashing by the church. But in fact
If you think about it more deeply, you will find that they actually lack reasons to participate in the war.
"It's true that I've never been to the front line, so what? What do you guys have to say?" Winnessa's words were already somewhat thorny. Lan Nuo said that this girl was quite uncomfortable.
"Don't be angry. If we have the chance, we can take you to the front line in advance. You can also go to the reconnaissance camp to see the devil's city from a distance. In fact, it may be different from what you imagined.
But it’s too far there. If you want to go to the city center to see it, we can take you there. From the looks of it, you probably haven’t been to the city center much, right? I’ll take this opportunity to help you buy some.
Things that are used in the military camp, the environment in the demon world is not very friendly to humans, and many things are inconvenient. You haven’t been there in person, so you don’t know, so we can help you choose.”
The girl had no plan to go out, but she was tricked into boarding the pirate ship for some reason. Winnessa rarely comes to the city center because the things here are generally very expensive, and it is indeed far away from home, so there are almost no places to go.
Came here to see it.
After actually arriving at the central commercial street, she felt a little uncomfortable. Although the city had already implemented a rationing system, there were still many shops here filled with exquisite and expensive products.
As if he was extremely familiar with this place, Lan Nuo pointed to the window and introduced to Vanessa: "Child, do you know how to drink? It looks hot outside, but in fact the temperature difference between day and night is huge. At night, I can drink wine to warm my body.
It is actually very important to soldiers. In the army, supplies are in short supply. If you can bring some, it will definitely be beneficial."
Winnessa frowned: "Didn't the prohibition on alcohol be enacted in China seven or eight years ago? Wine is made from grain. How can we still make wine when there is such a shortage of grain? Many people can't even eat, so how can we still buy wine?
?”
"Prohibition can only be stated openly. Do you really think it can be banned? You saw the store next to us. Do you know what they sell in the store? They sell compressed grape bricks. In fact,
It means squeezing koji, pressed grapes and a large amount of sugar together to make a specific food, which is nominally food. In fact, if this thing is dropped into a bucket and soaked for a few weeks, it will automatically ferment.
Making wine. This is still a folk way to circumvent the prohibition on alcohol. In fact, in the manors of the nobles, winemaking has never stopped. Only the poorest people can really drink alcohol."
Winnessa was silent. The reality gradually differed from what she imagined. The decrees issued by the government may not be implemented. In other words, the things promoted by the government may not necessarily be true.
"Do you feel that the world view is a bit collapsed? Before we saw some things, we thought they didn't exist, but after we saw them, it was different. How about it? Do you want to show me something more exciting?"
Vanessa instinctively felt that what she was about to experience would subvert her three views, but driven by curiosity, she still nodded.
"Let's go! Let me show you the sensuality of the upper class!"
Lan Nuo led everyone through the streets with ease and arrived at a club that looked small on the outside. After entering, he discovered that the underground space here was very special, and it looked many times larger than the ground.
Vivian whispered to the other Lan Nuo next to her: "Why are you so familiar with these things? I feel like your adaptability is a bit too strong. Everywhere you go is just like going home."
"It's just a little special intelligence ability, just get used to it."
After checking the interface with the waiter at the door, Lan Nuo successfully entered this entertainment venue that only existed in the underground world.
What would you see in a place like this? It goes without saying that even in this seemingly rationed environment, it will not hinder the enjoyment of some people. It is like the living environment of ancient civilians compared with the 1967
In the 1900s, things were much worse, and there were still arrogant and extravagant landowners and bureaucrats at the top of society.
If it was a more enlightened social system and if it was supervised by the people, it might be better, but under the feudal system, when the other side of society was exposed in front of Vanessa, the little girl's outlook finally collapsed.
"How could they... waste those grains and materials like that? And..." She didn't know what to say for a moment.
Lan Nuo did not deliberately guide his thoughts, but took her to see more things. This time he no longer concealed his technology that was beyond the times, and secretly installed a bug in the secret single room, allowing her to hear what was inside.
chat.
That was after the hotel. Someone was talking in the box about how military pay should be deducted, and how to make money from relief rations. The greedy and selfish side of human nature was undoubtedly revealed. In troubled times, it was the time for these people to make money, and the geese were flying.
Mao has almost become the instinct of this group of people.
"So, do you still think it's really worthwhile to go to the battlefield? I don't deny your belief in protecting your home and country. But the premise of all this is that you are defending your home and country, and you just saw it,
Some things are actually very different from what you imagine. Whose home country is this so-called home country?"
"You have your own reputation among humans, so you also bear more responsibilities. Logically speaking, I shouldn't interfere with your choice, but I feel that at least before you make a choice, I can let you
See more clearly what the world you live in is like.
It may not be better under the rule of the devil, but whether it will be better or not should be decided after seeing it with your own eyes.
Or maybe you still can't accept the devil, then think about how to change the country you live in now. You may not have enough power on your own. But I think those who want to see change now, and those who have the motivation to change the status quo,
It’s never just you now.”
Lan Nuo solemnly handed a book to the little girl, and also planted a big thunder in the world.
So much so that future historians still haven’t figured out why the Kadesa City Uprising was clearly the first large-scale uprising organized by a race in the human world. Why was it so organized and disciplined, instead of being as easy as before?
The civil uprising was suppressed.
Some things are really not suitable for demons to solve. Therefore, a two-pronged approach is necessary, and Lan Nuo can be said to be experienced in doing this. Even if he only leaves a few books, it is enough to change the pattern of the entire world.
After everyone bid farewell to this human city, they went to other cities and villages one after another, truly appreciating the huge gap between the feudal country and the seventh demon plane that had begun industrialization. They also appreciated the huge difference that the human world has for demons.
Prejudice. Most people are like the little girl, thinking that if the devil invades, it will enslave everyone, and that the devil is a monster that will eat people for their own entertainment.
To a certain extent, their perception is not wrong. The devil before was indeed such a character, but it is obviously different now. However, the transformation of this aspect of perception is a matter of the little devil girl.
After returning to Demon King's City, Hao Ren discussed with the little devil girl and finally decided to build a teleportation station here to facilitate the little devil girl's travel between the earth and this place. She could usually meet her father. As for the huge ship
He had to take away the spaceship because of his duties as an inspector. Not only did it contain the remains of his eldest son, but it also contained a civilized tombstone. For this matter, he also tormented the Erim elves over.
The Gangling Elves are currently one of the few civilian armed forces that he can use. It costs a lot of money to hire them to escort a spaceship that is hundreds of kilometers long.
This time, Hao Ren did not take this group of elves for a big move. They were still relying on themselves during their rest. The favor they owed was not that big, so hiring them would naturally cost money. But it was precisely because there was no move.
, the original wealth of these elves has not been lost, and all kinds of equipment and equipment are much more advanced. Considering the impact on the world in the future, optical camouflage is laid on the surface when moving large equipment. It is not like the original work.
It passed through one space gate after another with great fanfare and shocked all countries. But even so, the abnormal distortion in the sky still became an unsolved mystery for many years.
Things in Yzaks' hometown came to an end for the time being, and the time went back three hundred years ago...
…
On a white planet, Lan Nuo woke up from the biting cold wind and quickly took out a silver-white thermal insulation metal blanket and wrapped it around himself.
"It's so cold. Where have I traveled through time?" Lan Nuo looked up and looked at the huge mountain peaks in the distance. On top of the mountain peaks, there was a huge pillar of fire that reached the sky and the earth, shooting straight out of the atmosphere.
