Chapter 412: Arianara's Conditions
Without peace to define and highlight war, war loses its meaning.
Although the druid Master Deadwood had already disappeared in the crowd, the last sentence left by the Archbishop Aleenala from the Black Pearl Forest was subconsciously stunned in place.
There is also a trace of extremely contradictory puzzlement and understanding in the sharp and powerful eyes that projected.
I saw her right hand gently stroking a dark red barbed iron glove engraved with the fiery silver sword emblem on her left hand, her black eyes moved involuntarily to the calm water ahead.
A gust of wind blew by, wrinkling the water of the Emerald River, making the groves by the river rustle, a few frightened sparrows flew out of the jungle, and a few leaves circled and fell.
A very familiar scene, Aleena thought to herself.
This peaceful scene reminded her of the titles of the Goddess of Peace, Edas: Goddess of Water Song, Tranquility, Guardian Mother of the Grove, Green Goddess, and Mother of Water.
Immediately afterwards, Alienara's beautiful eyes, which strangely projected strength and sharp wisdom, flickered a few times with the trembling eyelashes, and the eyes were as bright as stars rising from the night sky in an instant.
She handed the sheathed long sword to the companion beside her, and brushed the long black hair hanging on both sides of her cheeks behind her, and swayed with the wind along with the broken scarlet cloak.
"The war lord Sarayan of Twilight Town." Ms. Laliana, the archbishop of the God of War, walked in front of Sarayan, looking at the lord who tried to hide the inexplicable sadness in her eyes. She folded her hands on her chest, The worn armor creaked, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"Guard the territory of the Emerald Field, keep it from the threat of invaders, and become a sanctuary for us visitors from other worlds, right?"
"That's right." Sarayan met Alenara's gaze, nodded seriously, and said, "This is my lifelong wish, to make the Emerald Field a free and equal country that truly belongs to us."
"A free and equal country?" Lalianara paced back and forth beside Sarayan, showing a playful smile:
"Eliminate all differences, tolerate all suffering, and eliminate the root of all evil, so that the entire country has no individual boundaries, no distinctions, no hatred, and equality. This includes everyone, every animal, plant, and those who Inanimate things. Is that so?"
"That's not true. Your idea is too idealistic, and it's impossible to realize." Sarayang smiled, not caring about the tone of Aleena's words. After finishing his words, he continued:
"Now we are suffering, and we are struggling to survive in this strange world. The sun, air, and water here are not what we are familiar with. Most of us have never even been in the field, touched the hoe and the plow, yes Planting crops is even more ignorant.
But let us obey the laws of the original world, identify with their kings, abandon our own culture and ideals, and live within the walls with the original residents.For most people, they will not object with their mouths, but as time goes by, they will slowly produce instinctive rejection in their hearts, especially after being ruthlessly eroded by the long years, they will have a strong desire for something to say in their hearts. Unclear things.
However, in order to survive, they must compromise, and must overcome the vanity and pride brought from the original world, even though this line of defense is weak and pitiful.Therefore, if we want the earth to bring us vitality and prosperity again, and establish our own country, we can only rely on our strength together.
Our territory in the Emerald Field is to let those compatriots who are wandering around the world understand that although the sun is different from ours before, it will continue to shine, and its light is still bright and warm. We want to All you have to do is accept the facts.Otherwise, even if we rage against the field with a hoe, we will not be able to grow what we need for survival.
I just want this place to develop into the second 'home' recognized by all compatriots in the whole world, let this place become our 'sacred place', instead of being a springboard for world hegemony, falling into an endless war, that's all That's all. "
Family?
When Sarajan mentioned this familiar thing, it seemed to touch some nerve.
Some people look at the blue sky, with white clouds floating leisurely, the sky is the destination of clouds.
Some people looked at the jungle in the distance, and the crisp birdsong was faint, and the destination of the bird was the jungle.
There are also people who look down at the tenacious grass under their feet, which is rooted in the earth.
……
The only thing they have in common is that they are almost silent.
Thorne in the crowd also subconsciously moved his eyes to Pushang Town in the north. He saw the snow-capped Mount Varners, which was covered with snow all year round. The tireless waterfall was formed by the melting of snow on the mountain. The town is named after the waterfall.
It was enough for him that there were half-elves of his blood in the town, as well as visitors from other worlds who shared his soul.
The half-elf girl sensed the suddenly solemn atmosphere, and she looked at Thorne beside her without thinking, just in time to catch the faint sadness that flashed away in his eyes.
Lilia is very familiar with this kind of sadness. In her past life, whenever Thorn sat on the rock by the waterfall and pretended to enjoy the beautiful scenery, he couldn't help showing this expression, so that when people looked at him from a distance, he couldn't help but show this expression. His back seemed a little lonely.
Although she didn't quite understand the true meaning of the lord's words, she understood that they were all discussing a topic about 'home'.
It turned out that his sad expression meant 'homesickness', Lilia thought to herself as she saw Thorn's calm face restored again.
Then she stretched out her hand to grab his arm, and put another warm little hand in his palm and squeezed it tightly.
When the puzzled ranger looked at his strange behavior, Lilia immediately went up to him, returning a faint smile and reassuring eyes.
"Then have you ever thought that people are sometimes like rivers, sometimes they are narrow and swift, sometimes wide and steady, sometimes turbid, and sometimes clear, the same is true for us, although we have the roots of human character, but show are different.”
After listening to Sarayang's long speech, Alienara moved her gaze to the sparkling Emerald River. She blew on the strand of hair that blocked her view, and continued:
"How do you deal with these people? Don't forget, this is a world of mighty power. The strong represent absolute dominance. The daggers, poisons, moldy dungeons, roasted red Do pokers and gallows really work? After all, this is also a country.”
"The current predicament does not allow us to have time to think about the long-term. What we need to do most now is to do everything possible to end this cruel war as quickly as possible, and return the Emerald Field to a quiet and peaceful place. As for the future Let’s talk about it later.”
Sarayan frowned deeply, thinking of the newly formed radical faction in Twilight Town, he couldn't help rubbing his forehead again, and replied with some headaches.
"So, what do you think? Carlos, the lord of Fallstown." Seeing that Sarayang couldn't answer, Aleena turned around and walked in front of Carlos, brushing the hair on her forehead and smiling. recalled:
"At Zhanzheng College, you had the longest vision. You analyzed the war-torn land of the Southern Kingdom, the uncompromising wilderness of the Northland, the stubborn, rigid, selfish aristocrats in the middle of the mainland, and even the far-away Serre. The red-robed wizard, the Leatherman witch, and the overseas islands have all investigated thoroughly, and finally confirmed that the emerald field of the Corina Peninsula is the most suitable area for developing the territory."
"Is this related to the war?" Carlos asked in a daze, with a smile on his face.
"Isn't it necessary to open up the territory without war?" Aleena continued: "You are shouting to end the war with war and build a shelter for your compatriots. It is impossible for you not to know the depth of the Silver Pine Plain. For us, Stone City is a ready-made city of shelter.
But you are still obsessed with coming here to oppose the cruel war, but you don't know that this war is started because of you.
So those of you who gather people under the banner of justice and call yourself "destiny fighters" remind me of some terrorism, and you and Sarayan strongly oppose the church of the God of War entering the Emerald Field , I can think that you have ulterior motives. "
"Look at what you said, I've said it before, as long as you don't build war churches here and launch your special storms full of holiness, we welcome you to come here at any time. After all, this place is full of no man's land, we He has no right to claim to be the true owner of the land." Carlos chuckled lightly, looking at the familiar face, his tone became more relaxed:
"As for the Deep Stone City you mentioned, the kind of 'place to lie down' that kills people's fighting spirit, you can go to the town and ask how many people are willing to go there from the bottom of their hearts.
Irmat, the god of suffering, is indeed a kind-hearted, docile, quiet, and peaceful god. Almost all the people he protects are the disabled, the oppressed, the poor, slaves, and serfs. .
So, beautiful Ms. Aleena, do you think those of us who have an inexplicable sense of superiority will really treat them as equals and live together? After Carlos finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion:
"Everyone has ideals, and no one is an exception. I just succeeded in making the ideals of most people resonate and become consistent.
However, it is a pity that some people fall on the road of ideals, some people continue to struggle for their ideals, and some people fall into endless confusion after completing their ideals, trying to find the next ideal.
It is true that we started the war on our own initiative, but no matter how selfish our goal is, it is beneficial to our own people. Our development direction is full of hope.
After all, what we pretend in our minds is the entire modern civilization, the sole master of the real world.How many people do you think will willingly integrate into the original world group? Isn’t this all forced by life, as a last resort.
If you still don’t believe it, you can live here for a while, laugh, sing, eat kebabs and dumplings with these people, drink beer, listen to music, watch dances, and flirt with girls whose skin is shining with sweat.
You can take a closer look to see if the smiles on their faces on this difficult day really come from their hearts.I don't think this kind of smile is very common in Deep Rock City, Silverpine Plain, and Black Pearl Forest.
Because many people believe that people will not suffer for a lifetime, but for a while, and many people suffer for a lifetime in order to escape for a while. "
"It is indeed a convincing reason. I hope that all of this will really develop as you said, and eventually become a country that belongs to us. I kind of look forward to that day."
Alienara looked at the lord of Upper Falls through her long eyelashes, was silent for a while, gave Carlos a smile, and walked towards the crowd behind him.
Seeing this, everyone made way for the Archbishop of the God of War.
Thorne was about to pull Lilia away when he suddenly realized that the archbishop was targeting him, and the sharp black eyes that revealed a smile had been locked on him, so he stopped and looked over.
"Hello, half-elf ranger, stalker of the path of silence." Aleena walked up to Thorne, stretched out her right hand without the iron gauntlet, and greeted him with a smile.
As Laliana got closer to him, Thorne slowly smelled a faint smell of verbena, which was very similar to the smell of the juice from crushed weeds.
Whether in reality or in this alien world full of various dangers, the characteristics of most women still have many similarities, for example, they all like to rely on certain perfumes to attract the opposite sex.
Regarding this point, Thorne was most impressed by Andelina.
This sorceress especially loved the scent of violets. When he asked Andrina why she liked this scent, she just smiled and asked him to look at the flower language of violets to understand.
The flower language of violet is: eternal love and beauty, mystery and elegance.
And this kind of verbena with a bit of bitter smell is regarded as a precious sacred grass in some churches in the mainland, and is given a symbol of peace.
Its flower language is: justice, expectation and innocence.
"Hello, Archbishop from the Temple of War." Thorn hesitated a little, and shook hands with the other party.
"I would like to ask, as believers of the God of Tracking, you often engage in endless battles with enemies in the wilderness. So I am curious why you didn't choose to go to the uncompromising northern wilderness, but stayed in the wilderness. Emerald Field." Aleena looked at Thorne with a smile on her face, and asked humbly for advice.
"As the Archbishop of the Temple of War, Ms. Alenara, I am also curious why you did not choose to go to the south of the mainland to spread the teachings of the God of War. After all, the Southern Kingdom is composed of a bunch of loose small and medium kingdoms, duchies, and various autonomous dominions. Seriously Sometimes, a city can even change owners three or four times, shouldn't this be more suitable for you?" Thorn didn't answer her question, but chose to ask rhetorically.
brief silence...
"Thank you for letting me know." The Archbishop of the God of War was taken aback by the question, but immediately figured out the reason, smiled slightly, and bowed to Thorn.
"You're being polite." Thorne bowed back.
Then, Aleena came to the Druid Master Deadwood again, bowed and said respectfully, "Hello, respected Master Deadwood."
"If there is no peace to define and highlight war, war will lose its own meaning." Without waiting for Master Deadwood to reply, Alenara continued:
"So, people who have been baptized by war are more eager for ideals and hopes, and this ideal and hope is peace. War and peace are like order and chaos. War can give a person who has experienced many things, but the most precious thing is undoubtedly It is the belief of yearning for peace."
Master Deadwood smiled gently at the archbishop in front of him, then lowered his eyes and said nothing.
"I can give up the condition of building the Temple of War in the Emerald Field, and I can also assist you in expelling the hobgoblins in the Forest of Tranquility. My condition is that I will personally lead the expulsion battle."
Alienara walked up to Sarayan and Carlos, threw the broken scarlet cloak behind her, revealed her heroic figure, and stated her conditions.
"I object to this condition!" As soon as the words finished, Seru, the tiger-man ranger from Bugle Town, came out together, accompanied by the war troll Kohando.
"Hey! This is our last concession. Waterfall Town and Twilight Town haven't spoken yet. When will it be your turn to object?" A mountain dwarf stretched his neck, blowing his beard and staring. Staring at the tiger man who came out, his tone was very dissatisfied.
