"Has it been that long?" Floyd exclaimed, "Well, tell me, what happened to you, the demise of such a powerful country must be like an epic."

"Is it an epic? As you said, nobleman." Dolphin lowered his head and continued to talk about the past: "According to oral legends, the kingdom established by the Kouding people prospered for more than 300 years. The power is in control, and they tell the subjects that as long as they work hard and become people approved by God, they will take qualified people to the main hall, promote them, and then bring them to the side of God. They used this lie to deceive and play with all the Kouding people, It wasn't until an accidental discovery by an explorer that the hoax was exposed."

Frode asked, "Explorers? Were there explorers back then?"

"My lord, according to the legend, the discoverer is a descendant of a big family who likes to wander around and dig for treasure. I don't know how to describe him. It seems that the word explorer is quite appropriate." Dolphin touched his chin. , opened the mouth to explain.

"That sounds more like me. Maybe he's an archaeologist too. So, what did he find?"

"Well..." Dolphin hesitated for a while, and then, with a serious attitude, said solemnly: "My lord, don't be surprised by what I'm going to say next, after all, legends are legends, especially this kind of words It's been passed down, well, you know, sometimes exaggerated and distorted."

"I'm a scholar, especially a folklorist. No matter how weird things are, I won't be surprised." Freud motioned for the other party to continue talking.

"Ruins, ancient ruins. In the southernmost part of the kingdom, in a cave, there is an ancient city ruin beyond imagination. It is said that the city's age is underestimated if it is described by more than ten thousand years."

"Well, the ruins of the city? Whose is it? We humans, or the current demons?"

"The explorer called the builders of the city 'Eternal Ones'. Time has passed so long that even the remains of the city have turned into stones. It is said that even so long ago, the buildings built by these 'Eternal Ones' The city, and the technology within it, is also far superior to Kodin."

"Well, then, you said, they made an amazing discovery, didn't you?"

"To be precise, they discovered the truth." Dolphin was silent for a few seconds, and said in a low voice: "Most of the documents in the city have disappeared, but fortunately, some stone carvings have been preserved. And, In a place that seems to be a college, they found some stone murals used to teach young children, and there were corresponding words engraved under those patterns, which allowed them to roughly decipher the few remaining stone inscriptions."

"To their surprise, the gods worshiped by the 'Eternal Ones' are the same as our Kurdins. And they also have an ascension ceremony. Like our Kurdins, once a suitable 'ascended' is found, they will be taken to the north The headquarters of the temple. What makes the explorers uneasy is that the more late the information, the crazier the "Eternal One" was when it was inscribed. Whether it is the content of the record or the way of inscription. In the end, they except "dedicate everything to Nothing but God' will be written."

"The explorer was uneasy, and he concealed the ruins and the information he obtained during the period. After that, he began to secretly investigate the darkest secrets in the kingdom. In the process, he got the help of a kingdom archmage. It is said that the Archmage, he was originally a suitable person who could be promoted, but because of the deep brotherhood, he gave up the opportunity to his younger brother, and since then he has cut off news. Due to various suspicious behaviors in the sect, he also became suspicious. After that, During a certain secret investigation, I got acquainted with the explorers who came to investigate together."

"After a period of investigation, the cruel truth of the kingdom and the church, and the sad fate of the Kouding people, have finally been revealed by them." Pigpi sighed sadly, "We are just fat pigs raised by that evil god! We were raised and eaten Fat dolphin! Its help is not selfless! Its promises are not true! The ascension ceremony does not exist! The chosen ones are simply eaten by it! Ha, 'with God~' is really true It's presence, but it's just in its belly!"

The sound of dolphin skin became louder and louder, which alarmed the guard Garp outside the door. He walked in, looked at Frod and said, "Sir, what happened?"

"Uh, no, sorry, Price." Floyd turned to apologize.

"That's good, oh, right, time is running out, you still have 3 minutes ~ please pay attention."

"Okay, thank you, my side will be over soon."

Seeing the prison guards leave the room, Floyd hurriedly urged: "What about after that? Dolphin skin~I want to know what happened next~!"

"The explorer and the archmage united some of the families of the victims of the ascension ceremony. After their continuous investigation, they discovered the location of the evil god and its weaknesses. Finally, they found an opportunity and successfully sealed the evil god."

"Is that so? It sounds like a good ending, but does it have something to do with the destruction of your Kurdin kingdom?" Frod spread his hands towards the dolphin skin.

"Of course, my lord. After sealing the evil god, all church personnel died, and the upper echelons of the kingdom were also killed and injured. Many high-ranking warriors and a large number of mages also died at the same time, and the whole country immediately fell into turmoil. "

"How did he die? Oh, because after the truth was revealed, he was liquidated by the angry victim's family?"

"No, my lord," Dolphin shook his head, "The legend emphasizes this point very clearly. At the same time that the evil god was sealed, those people also died, almost at the same time."

"After that, the kingdom's national strength declined sharply, and many remote areas, especially those near the south, began to gradually lose control. Humans discovered our weakness, and they continued to harass our territory. And we, after breaking away from the evil god After mastering it, it also slowly began to lose strength. The carapace we wore was no longer light and tough, but became bulky and fragile, and could no longer block swords and guns. Our eight arms not only lost the sharp points that could pierce the armor. thorns, and become weak and weak, we can no longer hold powerful and heavy weapons. At the same time, we have also lost our powerful power. In the past, we could release a fireball the size of a bathtub with a single thought, but now we may only be able to release a small flame. Not even a firewood can be lighted."

"Afterwards, when they were retreating steadily, the ancestors at that time made a decision that they regretted for the rest of their lives, and that would harm their descendants for thousands of years. They armed the slaves of the eight races to fight against humans. In the end, those slaves When defending the capital, we cooperated with the human lord and captured the capital of the Kodin people - Lomo." Dolphin sighed: "Hundreds of years of brilliant civilization were destroyed, and the kingdom perished. After humans defeated us, Turned against the Eight Clans again, and drove them to the northern permafrost."

"My ancestor was plundered to the permafrost by the eight tribes. I don't know if I should say he was lucky, because the Kurding people who stayed in the southern continent were all extinct. It took human beings hundreds of years to wipe out us. Now, even A scholar like you doesn’t even know the past of our Kurding people.”

Frode was a little shocked and was about to speak when Garp entered the door again: "Sorry, your time is up."

"Wait a minute, just a question~" Frode gestured to Garp, then turned to look at Pigpi: "Have you ever regretted it? I mean, have you ever regretted betraying that evil god?"

"Regret? For what? To be free?" Dolphin smiled.

Napoli Poliba is checking the report in the office. The training of the new king is on the right track. Leaving aside the veterans, the newly recruited soldiers will soon accept the new steam gun, and the operation of many steps will be simplified, and there will be supporting equipment The unique individual chest bag and ammunition belt greatly facilitate the actual combat operation of soldiers.The heavy steam generating chamber and the pre-installed magic stone are removed, and the weight of the current gun is also reduced a lot. The actual weight of the soldier is only about 34 catties.A lot of weight is also distributed to the chest and waist.In this way, the difficulty of training for soldiers has also been greatly reduced.Naples estimated that in another month, Xinjun will be able to practice initially.

While he was thinking about the future, the guard told him that the ministers of the monarchy were waiting for him in the reception room.Napoli could only put down the work at hand, got up and rushed to the reception room.

As soon as he entered the door, before he could say hello, the Minister of the Imperial Department signaled him to be silent, then pulled him to a corner of the room, and whispered: "Young man, I have a difficult task to entrust to you, and you have to do it for me. "

"Is it a formal task?" Napoli was a little dazed. In his impression, the minister in front of him had always been a model of integrity, and today he suddenly came to assign private work.

"Brat! I know what's going on in your head! Don't worry, what I told you to do is a formal task. Uh, of course, it's not a formal task right now. It won't be considered a formal task until His Majesty officially issues a document a few days later." Yes." Gronny was a little angry, but explained to Naples with some embarrassment.

"Your Excellency Groni, I can't understand what you mean." "Tsk, turn around and look over there~"

The minister of the monarchy pointed to the other corner of the reception room, and Napoli followed the guidance and looked over. There, there was a young girl sitting quietly.

"Who is... the daughter of General Bernard Jin?" Napoli felt that the other party looked familiar.

"It's her, oh~" Gronny sighed, "This mission is because of her~ she wants to enlist in the army to avenge her father. Before she went to look for His Majesty, His Majesty pushed the matter to me. Said that as long as I agree, His Majesty will agree. Since last week, she has been harassing me, causing me to hide in the palace! But she is lucky, blocking my door regardless of day and night! I really can't bear it Stop it, and my youngest son comes to me every day to talk about this and that, it’s really terrible, I can only agree, and bring her to see you. Don’t worry, His Majesty’s approval will come down in two days.”
