Chapter 196 The advent of silence (63): Song (Part 1)
April 20th, 527th year of the New Lunar Calendar.
Zine Empire, Silent Highlands, "Silent City" ancient city ruins, "Silent Steel Heart" underground, temporary "Military Exhibition Hall".
Aaron has been in a particularly comfortable mood these days. In addition to taking back Miyou and accepting a relatively strong twin named Oliver, his younger brother has also completely returned to normal, regardless of appearance.
In addition, the crown prince also promised to give him absolute autonomy to decide his future after the war, which reassured him a lot.
After all, if you are a truly lost person, in addition to being thirsty for "energy" and touching fresh flesh and blood from time to time, which often makes you fall into madness, you also have to do things for the church, at least all year round, most of the time.
You have to fight against humans, it's very precarious, and you don't know what day you will become a worthless piece of meat.
As the Prime Minister of the Empire, even if he is a future citizen of the Empire, he can go to any place to retire and spend an unforgettable and warm time.
The world, like him, has been silent and chaotic for a long time, and is "yearning" to return to order and peace. At least there shouldn't be such frequent wars.
Thinking of this, a long-lost warm smile appeared on Yato's weathered and wrinkled face.
He deliberately placed the black cane under the electric light near the wall, adjusted the top hat with the yellow sunflower in it, and arranged the dark blue tuxedo that he usually couldn't bear to wear, as well as the pure red tie and
Bow tie, try to correct your demeanor and appearance as much as possible.
Picking up his cane, Aaron jogged a few steps forward with the sound of his leather shoes, stepped on the hollow metal floor, and walked to the 17-centimeter-thick "Imperial Bank Vault Door".
Immediately afterwards, he opened the cane from the middle and split it in two, revealing the metal key hidden inside and half fixed inside the cane.
After opening the door perfectly according to the method learned in memory, Aaron finally saw the empty, bright, and very spacious underground space in front of him.
"No wonder His Highness wants to test Yin Na's true strength here and let us listen to the 'Confused Song'. It's obvious that the interior has been completely renovated in a few days. I guess Your Highness also asked the train to send a lot of ore to generate electricity.
Otherwise, the electric lights all over the wall would not have much energy to maintain." Aaron commented with a smile and continued to move into the empty space.
Many of the previous military exhibition areas were removed by Crown Prince Yin Fante, and the road rich in artistic layout no longer exists.
Moreover, the temporary wall made of bricks and stones that separated the exhibition hall in the middle has been completely demolished. The half of the exhibition hall on the left still retains a lot of its original appearance, but it is basically a technological model left over from the Crusad Empire, such as the "Crusd"
Jet aircraft, "electromagnetic pulse rifles", and "individual combat robots" are all elusive and difficult to understand.
But after walking inside for a few minutes, Aaron's eyes still turned to the altar with marble floor tiles in the center, the surrounding railings painted with faded yellow paint, and the people standing at the foot of the altar, waiting for him.
"person".
"Here you are, Mr. Aaron..." Oliver greeted respectfully, but he didn't make any movement, he just showed a professional smile.
"Of course, today I am here to see Yin Na. By the way, His Highness asked me to bring Fan Suo along. Today is a feast of music. Without his guidance, I am afraid we will all go astray. He is the Twelve Great Masters
One of the cardinals, he was also willing to be captured by us. Although there are many of his actions that I cannot understand, but today we need him to decipher some mysteries." Aaron explained elegantly.
"Secret...secret?" Mi You asked doubtfully.
He was still a little weak, although he fell into a deep sleep for twelve hours after following Aaron from the hotel to the auxiliary command area room of the "Silent Heart of Steel", and after confirming that the influence of the "Blood Demon" had dissipated, Aaron specifically found
A part of Vladimisky's blood collected by Infante came and was fed to him.
But now he was still holding on to the railing a little weakly, with a slight drop of sweat on his forehead. From time to time, sporadic "stars" flashed in front of his eyes, and he was breathing in an abnormal and rapid breath.
"Yes, a secret." Aaron was silent for a few seconds, looked at Miyou worriedly, and answered his question first.
"The Chooser's diary, research by the Empire and the Church, including many relics excavated in the Lost Swamp and Silent Highlands during this period, all show that the confused song not only contains the secret of the 'Daughter of the Mechanical Element', but also hides the secret of another person.
A message from a very important god."
"It's just a pity that level 6 superpowers and lost people will immediately vomit blood as long as they listen to Yin Na's singing, stare ahead with their eyes in horror, and finally die in extreme pain. Not to mention ordinary humans, above
The first time at the 'Heart of Industry' hosted a banquet for high-ranking empire generals, as well as collaborators from the Vampires and the 'Lone Wolf Society', Yin Na simply sang a 'Song of Confusion', although it was literally the same as 'Song of Confusion'.
It's very close, but the results are completely different."
"How are they? Are they dead?" Oliver asked very directly. After the two days of contact with Aaron and Miyou, he also became very interested in the content about "Daughter of Tool Yuan".
"You are right. Although your expression is very direct and may seem cruel to many people, it is indeed the case. Of course, it would have been nice if I could have spoken up to stop His Highness. That day, His Highness stood at the door and still said
Before she even pushed the door open, Yin Na's singing had already started."
"In less than fifteen minutes, when we pushed the door open and entered, the scene we saw was simply like the hell on earth described in the Holy Word." Aaron said, paused, and barely suppressed the panic, pain and loss.
Intertwined emotions.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Then, he took a long breath, crossed his hands, tried his best to suppress the involuntary shaking, and continued to say in a hoarse voice:
"All the human generals present died, their heads exploded, and only their bodies were still twisting unconsciously towards the door. The vampires present were basically crazy, they were licking like dogs.
They licked the ground, greedily, but did not enjoy it. They twisted their bodies and groaned in pain. After about an hour, they lay down on the ground and made no more noise."
"As for those with superpowers... they didn't have many abnormalities at the scene, but they ended their lives in various ways within three days of being locked up in the underground 'Quarantine Zone' of the 'Industrial Heart'. Those who were lucky enough to survive,
There are only those who are strong at level 5.
Of course, the exception is that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also listened to the complete music, and it seemed that he was not affected in any way."
"Of course he will not be affected." A soft young voice came from a darker area at the edge of the corner of the altar, "He has 'divine nature' and 'sublimation gene'."
"Fansou? You're late." Aaron said in a teasing tone, turning around and looking.
The young man gradually approaching from the corner is Fansuo, who is also the Cardinal "Mystery" of the Church of the Dark Night.
His body shape is no different from that of a normal human boy of about ten years old. This time when he came to the underground of the "Silent Heart of Steel" again, he did not put on the mesh suit from last time, but a pure black suit that was dragged to the ground.
A robe to cover the metal shackles at the wrists and ankles.
His face was cleaned extremely clean this time, revealing its original white color that belonged to the vampire family.
Of course, the traces of scrubbing were also clearly visible, leaving two long, narrow red marks from his nose to his upper lip.
"Mr. Aaron, sometimes disrespect for time is precisely respect for life. After you and His Highness told me about the girl Yin Na yesterday, I thought about it all night, and even in my dream I asked the gods for help.
opinions.
But unfortunately, that is an ancient god in charge of blood, and he knows nothing about machinery. So after I woke up at five o'clock this morning, I have been meditating like the group of believers in the Fire Empire, trying to achieve enlightenment.
What? But it's a pity that I didn't have any insignificant understanding until just now." Fan Suo replied.
"I'm very curious about the content of the understanding." Aaron asked thoughtfully, standing with his cane to support his body.
"About 'madness'."
"'Crazy'?"
"That's right." Fansuo nodded and said:
“When the power of something exceeds a certain threshold, but greatly exceeds people’s cognition, and in a short period of time, people have exhausted everything without understanding anything, they will quickly fall into panic and self-doubt, and then
Crazy, insane, and finally collapsed while trying to eliminate this abnormal emotion, heading towards the abyss of death."
"Can the essence of 'Confused Song' be explained in this way?" Aaron reasoned.
"Of course. The note you handed me yesterday recorded in detail the 'Song of Confusion' that Yin Na sang in Chekavsk. In fact, the vocabulary is very ordinary, but if you guide it through the tone of the music, plus the source of magic,
If there is a subtle influence of force, people will naturally go crazy."
"For example, almost everyone in the Wasteland Era has never seen the wonderful and gorgeous worlds, which mostly exist in history books. They are all used to dirty, bloody, cruel, killing things, etc.
, and even get used to it. If the music and lyrics allow them to instantly enter a wonderful hallucination like a palace of gods, can they not go crazy?" Fansuo said, showing a disdainful smile.
"Maybe you are right, but what kind of existence is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's 'sublimation gene' that you just mentioned?" Aaron agreed, expecting Fansuo to make further interpretations.
"'Sublimation Gene'? It is a unique product owned by a person named 'Sublimation God' who is rare in ancient times and is not classified as a professional or extraordinary person.
Relying on the 'sublimation gene', they naturally have longings and fantasies for beautiful things. They will not make a difference in a peaceful world, but in the current chaos and disorder, they will give everything they have to restore the existence of 'love'
A world with 'order'.
Moreover, they hate the dirty and bloody products, but the wonderful things in their hallucinations can quickly calm them down." Fansuo explained, his heartfelt tone was mixed with a subtle hint of disapproval of Yin, the Crown Prince of the Zhenni Empire.
