Chapter 594

The end of one era usually means the beginning of another era. Many people only feel the changes of the times in their aftermath. They have nothing to do with nostalgia or nostalgia, but just that the concept has not been reversed for a while.

As the last bridgehead to protect the light of the world, the demise of the "Glorious Church" undoubtedly caused a huge impact and far-reaching impact on the people of countless countries in Elderland. In particular, the devout believers who believe in it are even more difficult for this cruel fact. Even if the initiator Heather Empire was also severely damaged and the pace of conquest was blocked, the church, which was the biggest blocking stone on the road to unification, Elderland would eventually fall under the conquest of the empire.

In fact, most people in this era had a very weak national consciousness. Family interests are the mainstream of society rooted in people's minds. They do not care who the ruler of the country is, they only care whether the ruler of the country will affect the survival of the family. The rise of one class will inevitably affect the interests of another class. Therefore, when the Heather Empire launched a full-scale war to unify Elderland, the vested interests at the top of each country are often the vested interests at the top of each country, because they will never easily give up their own interests. As for the people at the bottom, they often have no choice. Faced with the intentional incitement, deception and intimidation of the vested interests, they can only be forced to accept the fate arranged by the vested interests.

The land of the country after the conquered Heather Empire rarely had rebellious resistance, because the Heather Empire knew how to maintain the rule of a country, so as to win over a group of surrenders, kill a group of stubborn resisters, and finally be willing to give up some of the interests to the lower class to gain enough gratitude. Over time, it will naturally turn the conquered land into its own. However, the Sogro undead from the opposite strait is different. Because of the survival habits of the undead, they will never be able to reach conditions for harmony with humans. The contradiction between the two is basically an irreconcilable type, so it is naturally difficult to compare in terms of resistance.

When a heavy rain with invisible end severely blocked the journey of the dead and the empire, those precarious countries were glad to the forefront but did not realize that a greater disaster was about to come.

Flood disasters caused by heavy rain can still be cured, but the impact of heavy rain on the grain planting industry cannot be solved in any case. The result is obvious. Even if people can survive war and natural disasters, they will eventually be unable to escape the famine and starve to death.

In addition, this heavy rain almost cut off contacts between countries, and even merchants who pursue interests first have taken less and less risked going out to start trade. Sometimes, outside the city, carriages full of goods cannot move on the muddy roads. Since they can't even walk on the road, how can they talk about trade?

Nowadays, there are basically no birds, orcs in the wild. The whole world is shrouded in a hazy rain and mist. Everything is terrible. In towns, people basically stay at home and rarely go out. All administrative departments are useless. There is no way to see a few office workers. Even the patrol teams that usually take charge of street security have disappeared. Even if there is a serious murder, there is no way to sue them.

Xia Lan, who was wandering all the way in the heavy rain, has met many murderers who robbed in the rain. Unfortunately, they met the wrong person and it was natural to lose their lives. Even if you are not a vicious person, Xia Lan treats everyone equally. If you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for your bad luck.

Killing people is very suitable for Xia Lan. Even if there are thousands of accusations, he will not take it seriously. How can a person who has different concepts of the world behave normally?

Perhaps it was the guidance of fate that Xia Lan came to the capital of the empire, Droxichen.

He didn't know why he appeared here, by chance, coincidence, or by fate, he suddenly had an inexplicable premonition that there must be something he could not avoid waiting for him here.

In the last game, Xia Lan once carefully wandered around Deroxigen, but the feelings in the game are completely different from those in reality. Only by truly standing on the streets of Deroxigen can you know that the city is full of civilization and magnificence.

Deroxichen is not a small town. No matter how heavy the rain is, all departments still perform their respective duties in an orderly manner. A team of patrol teams wearing raincoats can be seen every now and then on the streets and alleys. In order to avoid the trouble of interrogation, Xia Lan deliberately affected the other party's senses and could not detect his existence, so that she could feel at ease to wander in this city.

Droxichen is located in a highland and has advanced and good drainage system, so the impact of rainwater is not serious. However, there are always some depressed scenes on the market with few pedestrians. Many shops have doors and windows closed, and only a few taverns, hotels or entertainment clubs still have their doors open.

After finding a hotel to settle down, Xia Lan ordered a few dishes and a bottle of wine in the lobby, and then sat on the table in the corner, occasionally looking at the rain outside the window and enjoying it slowly. There were many people similar to him, but there were three or five companions around him who could chat and play games, and he was the only one who was single.

He was very sensitive to hearing and could easily learn from the various speakers' identities. For example, the men who complained to each other near the table on the left, were merchants from other places who came to the Deroxigen trade. They had to stay here due to the heavy rain, and their words were full of complaints and depression. On the upper right, several mercenaries with strong figures were drinking heartlessly and loudly, not paying attention to the surrounding influences; on the table near the window, there were two locals chatting, and both talking about the impact of the heavy rain on the imperial war.

There are all kinds of life, and you can find it everywhere.

These people's chats are prone to make people feel sleepy and bored. After eating, Xia Lan returned to the room after drinking, and told the store to get some hot water to take a bath. After lying on the slightly damp bed for a moment, he fell asleep because he had not had a good rest for many days.

He slept for a long time this night, and went straight from the evening to the early morning of the next day, as if his previous alert had disappeared. In fact, the truth is very simple, and there is no need for him to live a nervous life anymore.

Deroxigen is the base camp for "Subvert Fangs". Although the battle of Revelation Mountain caused the vitality of "Subvert Fangs" to be severely damaged, at least "Subvert Fangs" still retains the organizational framework, unlike the "Subvert Fangs" that there is no shadow left. Few people in "Subvert Fangs" know Xia Lan, not to mention that his messy appearance is difficult to recognize even acquaintances. If he had not changed into clean clothes, he would have been difficult to even enter the hotel.

At this point, the relationship between Heather Empire and "Subvert Fang" has surfaced. Strangely, the people in the empire rarely resist and resist. Perhaps, the winners have the right to speak. If the empire is defeated, "Subvert Fang" will definitely face another scene.

On the fourth day when Xia Lan was in Deroxichen, the rainfall was not heavy that day. Xia Lan, who had been in the hotel for a long time, naturally wanted to go out and stroll for some breath. Coincidentally, many people had the same idea as him. The street was finally no longer as deserted as before. At least you could see people walking in groups of three or three with umbrellas.

When he was walking around the Alice Theater and preparing to go to the famous Ferroyd Arch Bridge, he accidentally had a slight physical collision with a strange man who was rushing to go. The man was very polite and expressed his apology as soon as he bumped into Xia Lan, but he seemed to have something urgent to do, and after he finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Xia Lan didn't care at that time, but the gray-white ring exposed on his finger when he apologized made him feel familiar. After a brief thought, he remembered that the ring seemed to have the same shape as the ring representing the identity of "subverting Fangs".

Without hesitation, he quietly followed the strange man and finally watched him enter through the back door of a gorgeously decorated club with suspicious signs.

Xia Lan, who had a premonition that something unusual would happen, would naturally not miss the opportunity to sneak in and eavesdrop, conceal his breath and sense the other party's whereabouts. After a while, he appeared quietly on the ceiling of a spacious and bright hall.

Through the gap in the ceiling, he could see clearly the situation in the hall at a glance, and the strange man he had followed was sitting around a long table with a serious face with a group of people.

No one made a sound, as if he was waiting for the appearance of the key figures. After a while, the door of the hall was pushed open, and a man in a black sacrificial garment appeared with the two guards. The people on the long table stood up one after another, lowered their heads to each other and bowed respectfully.

The man just waved his hand and regarded it as a response, and then took it as a matter of course to sit on the main seat of the long table.

"Everyone! I've been waiting for a long time."

"Master Priest! Your arrival is our honor."

Everyone at the long table said together.

"You guys are so serious." The main man said with a smile. "Next, let's talk about the important matter."

"Yes, sacrifice to the Lord."

"In the Battle of Revelation Mountain, although we have achieved the final victory in the decisive battle against the Holy Church, many priests and senior officials in the church have died in that war. Now only the Tamora priest who stayed at the headquarters of Droshichen has survived. Now the priest in the church is in turmoil! Especially since my lord disappeared some time ago, it has been slow to appear, which has led to those who are interested to spread rumors that my lord has fallen in that battle. But what we want to say is that my lord did not die, but was temporarily trapped in a closed space. Sooner or later, my lord will escape." The black-clothed priest said with a serious expression.

"Sir, where did you get the news about my Lord?" said a middle-aged man present excitedly.

"This is the response of my Lord who received through prayer by Lord Tamora's priest." said the black-clad priest.

"That's great! As long as my master is fine, we will rest assured!" Another man said with relief.

"Yes! The attitudes of the royal family and the military have become increasingly ambiguous recently. If it weren't for the suppression of my lord, they might have really planned to cross the river and destroy the bridge!" Another man said worriedly.

"Hmph! If that war hadn't caused all the elites of our senior management to lose all the new forces in the sect and the unsuccessful efforts of the royal family and the military would have the courage to develop a strange intention!" A man said angrily.

"This is impossible. The conflict between us and the royal family will sooner or later break out. If we continue to be strong, the royal family will naturally not dare to have any disobedience. But once we decline, the royal family will naturally not miss the opportunity to get rid of our control!" A man said calmly. "Now Elderland is in a strange rain. Without the threat of war, the royal family will shift its focus to us at home."

"Okay! My mission for this gathering is to give you a safe answer." The black-clad priest said: "As long as my lord still exists in this world, the royal family will never dare to act rashly!"

Xia Lan on the ceiling heard a lot of noise. She never thought that the relationship between "subverting Fang" and the empire had long been at odds, and now there is even a possibility of internal strife. But after the priest said, it seems that Galbo is still alive, and who will deal with the ban on Him? The throne of the Witch? Or the missing sacred Pope? What unknown things are hidden behind that war?

At this time, his eyelids twitched, and it turned out that what he had seen or heard was not necessarily true.
