Chapter 268 267. The Will of the Empire

As if to verify what Laurend said, two days later, news that angered Solon came from the Civita region.

Five hundred knights were annihilated, and only two of the fifty magicians who accompanied them survived.

Although there was no help from the snow monster, the loose squirrels in Civita united together because of fear. They no longer believed in Emperor Solon's promise to allow squirrels to live freely in Civita.

In fact, they wanted to believe it, but history always told them that this trust was only exchanged for another tyrannical lord and an insatiable lord guard. These monsters who ate copper coins would still not help them when they were blackmailed by human adventurers. More often, they would only take away every fruit from them until they had nothing, and then they left.

Perhaps Emperor Solon's decrees and promises were all well-intentioned, but the lord was the one who truly decided the fate of the Civita region.

The emperor was not their lord, but only the lord of the Solon people.

"Then let's fight, let Solon be the enemy of all the squirrels in Civita."

"We will fight to the death and gain respect from the flames of war!"

The simple slogan mobilized a large number of squirrels. The suppressed squirrels launched suicide attacks against Solon's well-trained soldiers without fear of death. The positions were broken through one after another, and the vanguard camp was a sea of ​​fire.

It was also at this time that the snow monster appeared in the mist. Everything froze where he passed. The bitter cold took the lives of the elite vanguards, and disappeared in the flying snow in full view of everyone.

Lu Yu, who had just completed the details of the second summon to Segoro, returned to reality with satisfaction, but saw Lulu and Sera looking at the map with a serious face, comparing the information in their hands.

Lu Yu picked up a scroll on the messy desk and took a look: "What are you discussing?"

"Discussing when Solon's Black Owl will be dispatched."

"Black Owl?"

Lulu explained: "Emperor Solon's personal guards, the number is unknown."

Lu Yu asked: "Are they very powerful?"

"Solon's Black Owl, Kodzoun's Shadow Guard, Sligo's Silent One, the glorious clone of the Church, the cornerstone of the power of the rulers of the four major countries." Lulu said.

Lu Yu thought for a while: "Can you be more specific? In simple terms, can these cornerstones of the empire's power beat you?"

Lulu and Sera raised their heads, stared at Lu Yu, then looked at each other and sighed.

Lulu answered seriously: "If it's one-on-one, it should be no problem, but do you think they will give a one-on-one chance?"

Sera continued: "Except for the Shadow Guard of Kodzoun, which is famous for its military formation, the Black Owl, the Silent One, and the Radiant Clone are all tough guys. They master the skills of killing, not "fighting". Eliminating all factors that are unfavorable to rule and continuing the country is the meaning of their birth."

"Lulu and I should be able to deal with them in a one-on-one situation, but it takes courage to fight them. Do you remember the most important content about rank in the theoretical foundation class?" Sera lowered her voice, "Strength cannot be calculated using the rank evaluation benchmark. These people are characters who subvert the rank rating. Do you understand what they are now?"

"They are the will of the empire, puppets cultivated on this land in the name of the country for hundreds of years. When they start to operate, they are bound to bring blood and fire... Lulu Yu, whether it is the Black Owl, Shadow Guard, Silent One, or Radiant Clone, there is no need to face them directly, unless you are ready to collide with these "national wills". They are not the magicians who are constrained by the stupid emperor of Mostana and cannot exert their full power, but a group of monsters with firm will and unscrupulous means. "

Lulu said: "I knew the name of the Black Owl when I followed Tanya, and I also saw the Black Owls standing beside the emperor at a court dinner, but this is the first time I have seen something that needs to be dispatched to solve them... Are the Squirrels really enemies that can only be solved by the Black Owls? The Civita region is not only inhabited by Squirrels. If the Black Owls are used to kill the Squirrels, it is hard to guarantee that other races will not be sad... This matter is that the Lord of Solon is too ruthless. "

"Not for the Squirrels..." Lu Yu noticed something wrong, and he looked at Sera with an inquiring look.

Sera nodded, and the two of them were in sync again.

"It's for the snow monster."

Sera looked in the direction of Civita: "When we thought of this, the black owls might have already set out, and... they probably knew who the snow monster was."

[Civita Region]

The setting sun weakly cast its last rays of light on the lush forests, and the mottled light seeped through the gaps in the leaves, sporadically hitting the "snow monster" in silver armor, reflecting the dazzling light.

The eyes hidden behind the helmet cast a cold gaze through the gaps, passing through the big trees and hills...

The slight tremor of the ground could not escape the perception of the snow monster, and he gently stood up, and the birds that used him as a bird stand were startled and flew into the sky with flapping wings.

The snow monster looked at the flying birds thoughtfully, bent down and picked up the spear that he had put down briefly.

The wide black robe was embroidered with an owl in the shape of a flying prey in bright gold and silver threads, and the hem of the robe was dotted with light black feathers. The person stood silently in the darkness left behind after the setting sun.

Countless birds in the sky returned to their nests with joyous cries, and on the earth, the black owl stood alone.

The snow monster holding a spear and the silent black owl faced each other like this until the stars appeared in the sky. The moon, afraid of breaking the silence, sprinkled its moonlight on the black owl's robe, dragging his shadow until it grew old. Long, the black owl then spoke.

"How long have you lived?"

The snow monster was speechless.

"Beautiful flowers will wither, green grass leaves will die, rivers are not eternal, the sun, moon and stars will eventually perish, and everything will have its end, let alone the country..."

Still speechless when seeing the snow monster, Black Owl continued: "From the day Black Owl was born, they said you would come back. You are the remnant of will, a shadow that should not be alive, and a disaster that will ignite the war... They Before I could wait for you, I thought decay had erased everything about you, but now, you appear in front of us."

The snow monster finally spoke, with a vicissitudes and desolation in his tone: "Decay can stop it."

"How to stop it?" Black Owl asked naturally.

"Will, hatred." The snow monster said, "As long as there are seeds of hatred in your heart, decay will be rejected by you."

"What you should hate is the spirit of infection that destroyed everything."

"Perhaps there is also Solon who killed us all?" The snow monster added calmly, "You threw the princes into the sea of ​​fire and watched them wailing and screaming, turning into pitch-black corpses. You are not allowed to take their corpses away. , no worship is allowed, no mourning is allowed, the nobles who were promised immunity were executed by you, and the generals who fought alongside you were hanged..."

"The seeds of rebellion should be eliminated. This is a struggle, not a game. I thought you had understood it." Black Owl said, "The nobles who were granted immunity secretly exchanged grains and rice and put sand into them during the fight against the infested spirit. The hanged generals colluded in an attempt to frame the aliens who worked together in the Infested Spirit War... They are by no means as innocent as you think."

"Is this what they have passed down from generation to generation for you to say when you see me?"

"I am just an ordinary person who is familiar with history and knows the rise and fall of kingdoms."

"Is the black owl also an ordinary person?"

"At least I am more human than you. I will not live for hatred. Your past no longer exists. The country only exists in books. When people miss the glorious era, they are not even willing to explore further, because every line of words It’s all blood and tears. You should know better than me what kind of country you are protecting.”

"You mean, Solon is better than Melias?" The snow monster raised his spear, "Then why does your lord eat people?"

“Where aren’t there good guys and bad guys?”

"There is no difference between Solon now and Melias that day. You tortured, you squeezed, you deceived, you enslaved, and the black owl... is just the minions of this giant beast like me, and, the black owl... Owls originally originated from Melias... You are just domesticated poultry, left to your own devices.”

The black owl leaned against the towering tree and said calmly: "I still have an owner, but you are a homeless wild dog."

The snow monster shook his head.

"No no no."

The temperature dropped sharply, biting cold came from all directions, and snow fell in the hot summer weather.

"I'm not dead yet."

"I'm not dead yet!"

"Come black owl, come birds of Solon, I am here, show your weapons and attack me."

"Melias has not yet fallen. I am the last will of the empire... Come on, face me!"

"Let me take a good look at what the scavenging monster born from Melias' corpse looks like."

The snow monster raised its hands and waved its spear, approaching the black owl in the darkness little by little.

"Are you ready, young birds of Solon, take a good look, this is the will of the empire!"

With the cold tone, winter is coming.

…

…

Late at night, Chi Hong was waiting by Tanya's bedroom, flipping through the scrolls. The servants of the mansion hurried over, and after seeing Chi Hong, they quickly lowered their voices.

After hearing the news, Chihong was shocked. She did not hesitate and woke up Tanya who was sleeping.

Not long after, Tanya met the two messengers behind the curtain.

"Three people were killed in the Black Owl battle?"

Tanya paced back and forth, turned her head suddenly, and stared at the shadow of the messenger through the gauze curtain: "Is your information accurate?"

"The black owl is out, and Prince Zenil also knows it. We even saw a messenger heading to the prince's residence on the way back."

"Brother also knows..."

"But how is that possible... Those are black owls, they are the strongest... Even if Lulu is entangled by them..."

"Wendigo, wendigo...who is he?"

Hell update tonight
