The Dark King
-
chapter-1268
To the west of the dynasty, there was a giant wall.
This giant wall was located in a remote swampy area and was quite far from the imperial capital. Even in the current era of information sharing and trade between the giant walls, there were not many railroad tracks outside this giant wall, there were also no beautiful tourist sceneries. It was still a wild and dangerous land filled with weeds, hills, and swamps.
To the people in the giant wall, the giant wall they were in was their entire world.
In the center of this world, the core of the giant wall was the king’s city. The majestic buildings formed a forest, and in the center of these buildings was the most magnificent and towering palace. In the back garden of the palace, there was a garden full of fresh flowers, beautiful and alluring, there was a sandy area in one of them. Two three or four-year-old children were lying on the sandy ground, using the sand to build a fort. They were having a great time.
Not far away from them stood a middle-aged man with an imposing bearing. He stood with his hands behind his back. His posture was tall and straight. His golden hair was extremely pure. He wore a long, slim black suit that looked like a tuxedo. There were a few silver chains embedded in it, he looked slightly noble.He quietly looked ahead and looked at the end of the sky.
The sky above this giant wall was clear and blue. However, at the end of the sky, there was a gray haze. It seemed like there was a rainstorm sweeping over.
He stared silently and gradually became lost in thought. No one knew what he was thinking.
“Lord Wall Master.”A soft call came from the garden behind. It was a well-proportioned young man. His face was somewhat pale and he was slightly panicked. He took three steps and rushed to the middle-aged man’s side, he said, “Something has happened, something big has happened!”
The middle-aged man woke up from his empty thoughts and slowly turned around. His expression was calm and there were no ripples. He said, “What happened?”
“Something big has happened in the Imperial City!”The young man’s voice trembled, he said, “I just received news that a large number of kings have appeared in the imperial city. They took advantage of the emperor’s patrol to attack his majesty. I heard that the main participants were his majesty’s biological parents. The entire imperial city has fallen into chaos. The area affected by the battle is extremely large. It is said that tens of miles of land have been razed to the ground. Countless people have died!”
The middle-aged man was slightly startled. He frowned slightly and muttered to himself, “Has this day finally arrived?”The young man was a little surprised when he heard his words. He said, “Lord Wall Master, you knew this long ago?”
The middle-aged man shook his head slightly. He was about to speak when a forthright and forthright voice came from outside the garden. “Noyce, didn’t you say that there was rose wine brewed from flowers here? Where’s the wine?”
As he spoke, a burly middle-aged man walked in. He had a shaved head and the top of his head was shining. At this moment, there were a few hickeys left on the top of his head, which was very eye-catching.
This golden-haired middle-aged man was Noyce. He was slightly startled and said with a wry smile, “Sergei, you’d better wipe your head clean first.”
Sergei reached out his hand to touch his head and wiped a few hickeys on his hand. He didn’t care at all and said with a smile, “It’s just the attachment of some women. What’s there to be clean about? Quickly take out your rose wine and share it.”
Noyce signaled the young man to leave and then sat down in front of the tea table in the garden. The tea table here was a european-style black and white tea table. Usually, the noblewomen ate afternoon tea in the garden.
He casually poured a cup of tea on the table and said, “You’re not in the mood to eat the wine. have some tea to calm yourself down.”
Sergei was stunned. “Calm down? Did Something Happen? Don’t lie to me.”
“Someone tried to assassinate His Majesty.”Noyce’s voice was calm, but his words were shocking.
Sergei immediately widened his eyes and said in surprise, “Assassinate His Majesty? You, you said it wrong, which Emperor did you assassinate?”
“Our young master.”Noyce said indifferently, “Besides him, who else is His Majesty?”
Sergei was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said, “I said it was a big deal. How can this be considered a big deal? which blind person is tired of living and actually tried to assassinate him? Isn’t this like a lantern in the toilet looking for SH * t?”
Noyce rolled his eyes, he said, “The people who assassinated him are his biological parents, the two who are now acting in the national affairs, and his biological sister. If I’m not wrong, Barton and Macon are also involved. Aurora… probably won’t be spared, and that student of his, Edward.”
Sergei was dumbstruck when he heard that, after a while, he said, “Are you crazy? Why are you spouting nonsense? “Why did his biological parents assassinate him, Barton, Macon, and the others? I even had a drink with them a few days ago. We were the first to follow his majesty, so there’s no way we would betray him. Why would we participate? “Furthermore, don’t they know how strong His Majesty is? With their strength, His Majesty could probably kill them with one hand.”
Noyce shook his head slightly and said, “My information came a little late. You are the leader of the imperial guards and can enter the dynasty’s intelligence network. You should be able to find out the whole story from there. Why not take a look?”
Kaki was stunned for a moment. He immediately rolled up his sleeves and quickly entered a secret key into his wristwatch. A moment later, his expression changed drastically. He jumped up from his chair and his body trembled slightly. In an instant, his head was covered in cold sweat, his face was filled with disbelief.
“How is it?”Noyce saw his reaction and slightly frowned.
Karch stood in a daze for a long time before he slowly sat down, he said in a daze, “You’re right. The imperial capital is already in chaos. There is indeed an assassination operation, and it is led by His Majesty’s biological parents. Barton is involved, Macon is involved, Aurora is involved, Edward is involved, and a few other kings are also involved. There are over a hundred kings present, but all of them are dead…”
Neuss’s eyelid twitched. Although he had made a prediction in his heart but his heart was still trembling when he heard about hundreds of kings. However he calmed down very quickly, it seemed that it should be the case.
“Why? Why did they do this?”Sergei was stunned. He couldn’t believe that Barton and Mason would betray Dudian, he didn’t believe that Dudian’s biological parents would lead the way!
Neuss sighed, “They have fought for the dynasty for the past ten years. Now they have their own families and found their own happiness. They are living more comfortably than the fantasy. They wouldn’t accept it if they were deprived of such days.”
Sergei looked up at him: “What did you say?”
“You didn’t participate. It’s probably because no one found you. Because they know that although you have many women by your side, you’re just playing around. You never use your emotions, and you can’t use them to hold you hostage. Moreover, you don’t have any children, and you don’t have any weak points. So, naturally, you didn’t participate.”Noyce sighed.
Sergei was stunned. “You mean, they were forced?”
“Since they participated, there’s no such thing as being forced. This is the path they chose. It’s a pity that they don’t know how terrifying Our Majesty’s true strength is.”Noyce shook his head, with a hint of regret.
Sergei couldn’t help but shout, “Are their brains damaged? were they kicked in the head by pigs? They actually want to assassinate his majesty. What benefits does this have for them? Is the wealth they have now not enough for them to enjoy? Is their status not high enough? What His Majesty can give them has already been given to the extreme! His parents are already in charge of the dynasty. They are not emperors, but they are better than emperors. Why would they still take such a big risk to do such a thing? Why?”
Noyce sighed, “There is no limit to the human heart. Acting as an emperor is still acting as an agent, which means that they still have to depend on others. You and I both know that His Majesty has the power of the creator and can resurrect the dead. Do you think they don’t know this? Do they worry that if they make a mistake, his majesty will reforge them
“So only when His Majesty is dead can they truly live.”
“But… But His Majesty doesn’t care about these things at all. The only thing his majesty really cares about is that Lady Aisha. To His Majesty, Power is just a tool to play with. He’s even tired of playing with it.”
Noyce smiled bitterly, “But sometimes, if you say you don’t want it, others may not think you don’t want it. If you say you didn’t hit him, but if your palm is there, others won’t believe you!”! “Besides, His Majesty is dead, and the secret of becoming a god falls into their hands. Who doesn’t want to live forever? “Who doesn’t want to live for ten thousand years, a hundred thousand years, a million years? “Even if the earth is destroyed, it can still coexist with the universe.”
“But…”kaki said bitterly, “Even if His Majesty is dead, that WA God is still there. She treats his majesty as her biological parents. How can she not avenge his majesty? Do they still want to kill gods? With just them?”
“That’s why goddess Wa wasn’t here during this operation. As far as I know, she left Earth half a month ago and went to outer space to play. She probably received some orders to go to outer space to do something, which is why she hasn’t returned yet,”Noyce said softly. “If the assassination is successful, when she returns, they can replace her with a dead peach. They can create a memory for his majesty’s corpse, then use his majesty’s corpse to control this goddess WA. It’ll be the best of both worlds.”
“Does that mean that God wa was deliberately moved away by them?”
“Otherwise, how would they have the courage to take action?”
Sergei opened his mouth and finally let out a long sigh, he said bitterly, “How stupid. They are living a good life, but why do they have to think about so many things? Isn’t good wine and women good? Can’t they be attracted to them? Why Can’t they just be content?”
Noyce glanced at him and turned to point at the two children playing in the sand. “Do you want to play with them?”
Sergei was stunned. He turned to see the two children building a castle with sand on the sand. He couldn’t help but laugh and said, “I’m talking about serious business with you. who has time to play such a childish thing with your children?”
These two children were obviously Noyce’s.
He was not angry when he heard this. Instead, he smiled faintly, he said, “You also know that this kind of thing is too childish, so you won’t do it. This thing can’t attract you, but it can attract them. At the same time, what you think is interesting now may be as childish and laughable as these two children building a castle in their eyes. Why would they enjoy it as much as you do?”
Karch was stunned.
“There are very few people in this world who have a common hobby. Everyone loves money, not because of the charm of money itself, but because money can buy them different things they want. Money is just a channel,”Noyce said slowly. “Different experiences, personalities, likes, and dislikes naturally have different pursuits. If you can’t understand them, they naturally can’t understand you. Therefore, they naturally can’t understand His Majesty.”
“Why?”Kaki was stunned.
“Because His Majesty is a god, and we are humans. How can humans understand God? People can only imagine god, Guess God, and analyze God, but they can never truly understand God.”At this point, noyce sighed softly, he said, “However, we are social animals, and we need a leader. The leader is the only one, and that is the highest. Only he can see the scenery that stands at the top. When he gains the world, it is also destined that he will lose the world and break away from the group. He is like a guide sheep, a horse pulling a carriage, walking at the front. What people can only see is his back.”
“To reach the peak, isn’t it also a dead end?”
Sergei’s expression changed, and he said hesitantly, “You mean, in His Majesty’s eyes, all of our thoughts and pursuits are as boring as building sand sculptures?”
“Maybe.”
“Is this the reason why the more you grow, the fewer friends you have?”
“When you are a grain of sand, you form a desert with the grain of sand. When you are a stone, you form a mountain with the stone. When you are a bird, you form a flock with the bird.”Noyce paused for a moment, then he continued, “But when you become a bird, you will no longer be accompanied by the grain of sand and the stone. You will no longer appreciate them. If you look at them one more time, they will not understand you, nor will they know you. They will also not understand that you were once a grain of sand and the stone. They will only think that you were born as a bird because they can not find the same characteristics in you.”
“If you don’t meet a flock of birds, you will only become a lonely bird. If you don’t meet other rocks, you will only be a lonely rock in the desert.”
Sergei was silent.
He was not stupid. He already understood.
Looking at the tea in the cup in front of him, the tea leaves swirled and fell, as if it was his fate. He was silent for a moment and asked, “You seem to have known that all this would happen?”
Noyce shook his head and said, “I just had a premonition, but I didn’t think that it would really happen. A Tiger doesn’t live with a dog. Even if this tiger is docile and protects the dog, the dog will still feel fear and fear, and then bark at it.”
Sergei was silent for a moment, and then.., he sighed and said, “You’re right, but it’s a pity that the world is peaceful now, but there are waves. The imperial city was also destroyed, and hundreds of kings died just like that. What a huge force it is to destroy itself just like that.”
Neuss shook his head, “The castle can be rebuilt even if it is destroyed. The chessboard can be rearranged. Even if there is no new game, the pieces can be restored. The only thing that is worried about the chessboard is not the player but the chess pieces. The one who is worried about the castle will be destroyed is not the child but the sand. His Majesty is the one who is playing chess. He is the child of the castle.”
Sergei was startled as he thought of Dudian’s creator-like ability. His heart suddenly trembled. He vaguely understood what Neuss was feeling. For the two children who were playing with the sand on the ground, the castle made of sand.., perhaps it was precious and it took a lot of effort. But if it was destroyed, they would cry or get angry.
After all, it’s not a child’s life!
But for them, it’s their destiny!
“Creation… is this the power of God? Why do I feel that this is more like the power of the devil, this is an ability that should not exist in the world, who has, who will care about life…”katch muttered to himself.
