Gold is Justice

Frange said something, as if to explain the reason.

However, it can be seen that there is not much intention in his tone to force persuasion, but a feeling of introducing the matter and then completing the work by himself.

After listening to Frange's introduction, one of the robed men snorted, said a few words, and then turned and left.

The other people in noble robes also said a few words one after another, and then left one after another.

After all the nobles left, Frange turned around and faced the direction of the city, looking very helpless.

But after taking a breath of relief, he finally walked out again.

It's just that this time he came out with a team of about 20 soldiers.

"Then, Your Royal Highness."

Frange raised his head, his face was expressionless, as if he didn't care about Ariel at all, and he didn't feel that this so-called "princess" needed much attention.

"It's getting late now, and I should have let you go into the city to take a rest, but unfortunately, it's a little inconvenient in the city right now, and Lord Baiji is hosting a banquet...'the real Eldest Princess of the Blue Bay Empire'."

Hearing this sentence, Tianjiu Cheese was slightly taken aback, and opened his mouth with a look of disbelief.

Egg looked away at Ariel, and after a moment of silence, he gently plucked the strings with his fingers.

Regarding this, Ariel stretched out her hand and tapped her cheek lightly, then faced the person in front of her with a smile again, and said slowly——

"'His Royal Highness the real princess of the Lanwan Empire'? That's interesting. Does the other party not want to see us? Is it convenient for us to go in and meet the other party?"

Frange spread his hands and said impatiently: "With my status, I am not qualified to go to such an honorable occasion. Besides, I don't like such troublesome things. So... If you also call yourself Your Highness the Eldest Princess If so, how are you going to prove yourself?... No, forget it, you don’t have to prove yourself anymore.”

The orc guard took out his pocket watch to check the time, and said, "As a person pretending to be the eldest princess, I don't need to waste time on you. Lord Baiji asked me to deal with you guys at will. So..."

Having said that, Ariel looked at the surrounding soldiers and the shining weapons in their hands.

On a night like this, those blades gleaming with moonlight look so dazzling, it makes people's eyes hurt...

There was still a smile on Ariel's face, and she said with a calm attitude: "So, what are you going to do now? Do you want to see me continue to argue that I am the real princess? It's a pity, as Honorable Blue Bay royal family, I don't have the tradition of performing such funny appearances to others."

Frange looked Ariel up and down in front of him, and after a moment of silence, he snorted coldly and said, "You are witnesses, before the news spread, I was not stupid enough to let you be dealt with directly. Since Master Baiji said that I can deal with it freely, then I have a good idea."

As he spoke, he slightly raised his hand, and all the soldiers around him put down their sharp blades. It seemed that such a conflict was suspended.

"Don't you guys want to go to Crystal Crown City? I can give you a ride."

Now, it was Ariel's turn to be a little uncertain about what the orc was thinking. After a moment of thought, she said, "Are you going to send us there? I thought you were a person who didn't like trouble."

"I am indeed a person who doesn't like trouble. My dream is to have a simple job. The money I earn can maintain my normal daily life, and I can also have a little balance that can be used to deal with emergencies. Then go through every day calmly, without any big ups and downs."

Frange spread his hands, and from the face of the orc guard, Ariel really couldn't tell whether he was joking or talking seriously.

"However, if I stay here, it is estimated that my life will be very troublesome in the future. The eldest princess of the Blue Bay Empire is in the city, so I will naturally need to take on important security work. I may even shoulder a whole lot of responsibility." And escort that princess to the mission of Crystal Crown City."

"Such a job can't be escaped. Since it's the same trip, it's easier to escort you, the fake princess. Even if you escape on the way, I don't have any mental pressure. I'm a very annoying Stressed people."

Ariel tilted her head and chuckled: "It sounds like you're an easy person to get along with?"

The orc guard snorted again: "It's up to you. In order to avoid any accidents, let's leave now."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and walked directly towards another road outside the city.

Accompanied by those soldiers, Ariel and her party had to follow along this path.After walking for most of the night, a building similar to a post station finally appeared in front of them. After a short rest, everyone waited until the sky was bright before setting off again.

In the next half a month or so, Frange continued to lead the three of Ariel forward in this way.

He didn't rush, and he didn't even ask Ariel and the three of them any more questions.

He really told the orc guard himself that he led the three of them towards the capital Crystal Crown City in a completely casual attitude.Even those soldiers seem very relaxed now.For the three of Ariel, let alone surveillance, sometimes Ariel got up a bit late, and these people might even leave her behind and leave.

To be honest, this... is a bit too easy.

Such a relaxed itinerary made Ariel feel a little at a loss.However, it would be nice if such a trip could continue all the way to Crystal Crown City.

On this day, it started to rain, and everyone hid in a cave, watching the rain falling outside, silently waiting for the rain to pass. .

"According to the current journey, we should be able to reach Crystal Crown City in about ten days."

Sweet Wine Cheese estimated the distance and asked a question.

Ariel rubbed her hands, glanced at Frange who was squatting at the entrance of the cave, and nodded slightly.Then he said, "How does your body feel?"

Sweet Wine Cheese nodded lightly, and said, "It's still a little painful when you get sick... But, with the help of Mr. Yi Ge's piano sound to help suppress it, it's not so unbearable after all."

Yi Ge on the side was carefully wiping the rainwater on the strings with a cloth, and said: "Although I am not capable of fighting, I am still somewhat confident in mobilizing my emotions. As long as you continue, I believe you will be able to Get rid of drug addiction. It's just that your disease may take more time to deal with it."

Sweet Wine Cheese's eyes dimmed slightly, and he said softly: "Even the elves... think there is no cure for my illness..." Egg thought for a while, and smiled: "Actually, you don't need to take things too seriously. It’s as complicated as imagined. Don’t think of it as a disease, if it’s a gift, wouldn’t it be easier and easier to accept?”

Ariel froze for a moment: "Gift? What do you mean?"

Yi Ge said with a smile: "Although this kind of disease is very common in modern times, I remember that a long, long time ago... probably thousands of years ago, this kind of disease appeared quite frequently."

Sweet Wine Cheese: "Really? Royal doctor...His Royal Highness invited many doctors for me, but it was useless. Has this disease really appeared before?"

Yi Ge smiled slightly, and pulled the cloth strip on the strings, which seemed to wipe off all the water drops: "There is no other benefit to living for a long time, and the only benefit that can be said is that I have learned a lot. In that Once upon a time, a group of townspeople suddenly became infected with this disease that began to appear in blocky markings on the body, and some tentacles would appear from the black skin. Yes, the symptoms are exactly the same as yours."

"At that time, the chaos caused by the monsters had just subsided, and many people were still vigilant and did not dare to be careless. So many people came to this town, hoping to understand the cause of this strange disease."

"After some investigation, it was found that it was not a disease, but a 'gift'."

Sweet Wine Cheese swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Gift...? How should I say it?"

Yi Ge said with a smile: "The specific statement... is a bit complicated. Let me try to explain it to you. It means that you have been chosen by the true god of this world and have the opportunity to become its people. And this so-called 'disease' is your The sign of being chosen."

Sweet Wine Cheese's eyes widened, looking a little confused.

Ariel also said: "Chosen by the true god? What kind of god is this? Local religious worship?"

Yi Ge laughed, and said: "In this world, you may think that the only God is the God of Light? After all, the state religion of the Blue Bay Empire is the Holy See of Light. Um... the Murderer Seat Empire, I was the God of Light 100 years ago. I’ve been here too, but I don’t know now. Hey, that orc in front, do you Hunters still believe in the Goddess of Light?”

The soldiers around did not speak, just glanced at Yi Ge, and continued to chat and rest on their own.

Frange in front turned his head and glanced at Frange, then continued to look at the rainwater outside the cave.

Seeing that no one responded, Yi Ge shrugged and continued: "Nowadays, there are many countries on the Golden Continent, and the beliefs of each country may be more or less different, but in general, they cannot transcend the category of elemental gods." After all, magicians have magical powers, if they believe in elemental gods, then the folks will naturally believe in them too."

"However, a long time ago, thousands of years ago, people did not generally believe in elemental gods such as the God of Light. There are some cities or countries that believe in ancient true gods."

"This kind of ancient true god is older and has a longer history than those so-called elemental gods. Moreover, the ancient true god does not gather believers with illusory existence. He really exists, and he can use his own power to pass on his true spirit to ordinary people. Gospel."

"This kind of gift is the mark of the ancient true god, which means that the true god has heard your wish and agreed to fulfill your prayer."

"The scars on your body, if I remember correctly, you should have become like this after doing certain things."

Ariel turned her head, and saw Amusement Cheese's complexion looked a little cloudy, as if something bad was recalled in her mind.

Seeing Amusement Cheese's face now, Ariel immediately said: "Stop talking about gifts and not gifts, this thing will bring people pain, so it's not a good thing after all, right?"

Regarding this, Yi Ge shook his head, and said slowly: "In the beginning, the residents of that city thought it was a terrible disease, an inescapable curse."

"However, as time went by, when the markings on their bodies covered their entire bodies, they found that they had gained an unprecedented sense of comfort."

"Gifts make their bodies strong and indestructible. Similarly, even people who did not have any magical affinity before will more or less start to have magical affinity after being fully blessed by the gift."

"After feeling the benefits brought to them by the gift, some of them began to no longer resist the gift, but some people who had not been given the gift began to pray that they could get this gift. However, the true God is not just anyone Blessed casually. Only those chosen by Him can have such a wonderful experience."

Hearing what Yi Ge said, Rummy Cheese seemed a little relieved, and said, "Really? Can it really... become powerful, and even make me have a magical affinity?"

These words sounded wrong no matter what, but Ariel shook her head and said, "Then, what about the price? It's not like there is no price, and people get such powerful power for no reason, right?" Yi Ge shrugged. Shrugging his shoulders, he said slowly: "As for the price, I don't know. After almost a quarter of the people in that town have the gift, the overall strength has become very strong. But at this time, the whole city is suddenly Disappeared without a trace. It was as if in one night, everyone in the entire city disappeared. According to those who went to investigate later, there was no trace of any fighting in the entire city, some tea was even hot, some houses Bread was still baking in the oven. There was even half-drunk black tea found in the lord’s room.”

"As I said, all the people disappeared in one night. So far, no one has seen all the people in any city, and no one knows where those people went and what they did. what."

Amusement Cheese, who was still a little relieved just now, turned pale again: "Will I...disappear? Will I disappear suddenly too?"

Ariel shook her head: "If this is the price, it's not a gift."

Yi Ge laughed, and said: "I haven't finished my sentence yet. Indeed, judging from the situation at that time, the people in the whole city did disappear at once. However, this is only the situation at that time."

Ariel: "Is there any progress later?"

The elf bard seemed to be interested, and said with a smile: "Of course, a half-baked story does not fit a bard's story. A poem must have a beginning and an end, so that people can listen to it happily."

He plucked the strings and said slowly: "Back then, people in the whole city disappeared. But from now on, strange things have never stopped."

"Since then, some human mages have begun to awaken some elemental affinity that has never been awakened before. For example... the affinity of necromancer magic, or spiritual magic."

"There are even people who have awakened some rarer magical affinities with time and space. As these magicians have become more and more refined in their elemental affinities with death, time, space, and mind, many of these magicians have begun to Said that when they used magic, they noticed a world that did not exist. People in that world could greet him normally, and they even wanted to go to that world. Sometimes, they even felt that that world was affecting reality in some way world."

"However, no matter how these magicians do their research, their lifespan is still limited after all, and it is impossible to get any closer. If you really want to say that there is something in this world that is connected to that world... ghosts, this kind of thing Perhaps it can also be used as an explanation."

Sweet Wine Cheese opened her mouth slightly, with an expression of disbelief on her face, and said, "Ghost... is that where the ghost came from?"

Ariel frowned, and said slowly: "If no one has been able to study the so-called world well, then such a conclusion cannot be drawn at present. At most, it is just a research direction."

Yi Ge smiled: "Sure enough, Her Royal Highness is very rigorous and serious. Alright, now let's talk about this kind of gift, although from the results, it may be that the person infected with this kind of gift disappeared out of thin air. But after thinking about it Thinking, it is also possible that these people have gone to a more beautiful, more lingering world, and they are not even willing to come back. That world may have eternal peace and justice. Anyone who goes there, no matter how high or low they are, Regardless of race, gender, disability, and strength, everything will be treated equally. If there is such a world, then it is understandable that those people don’t want to come back after they go.”

The origin of the first thousand 340 chapters of the brave?

Sweet Wine Cheese tilted her head, as if she couldn't understand the concept of a 'fair' world for a while.On the contrary, Ariel is silently looking at the elf in front of her, and she can clearly feel the longing in his eyes when he said these words... In other words, this elf may really be looking forward to such a completely fair world bar.

Heh, having said that, who doesn't look forward to such a world?Don't you also look forward to such a world full of fairness and justice?

"In addition, although people seem to disappear out of thin air, people in that world seem to be able to return to this world freely."

Egg plucked the strings lightly, and said with a smile——

"Among the history I know, there have been some really 'amazing' things in some places."

"Some encountered robbers, some encountered terrible monsters, and sometimes even a city ruled by a tyrant. When ordinary people are full of suffering, there will often be some people who are later legendary as heroes or brave men. Appearing, they will exert fighting power beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and destroy those terrifying existences in one go. Although no one can know their names at present, according to some eyewitnesses, when those people use their power There will be black stripes and black flame-like things. From this, it is very likely that those residents who disappeared saw the injustice of our world coming to our world again after gaining powerful power. The servant, after solving the problem, he returned to his own world again."

If the words just now were somewhat incomprehensible to the so-called fairness and justice, then the "power" that Yigo said now really attracted the girl's attention.She raised her hand and looked at the black spot on her arm, her eyes were already flickering.Perhaps in her head, she was imagining what she would be able to do after obtaining some powerful power out of thin air one day in the future...

Of course, Ariel absolutely believes that the reason why this princess wants to gain power so much is absolutely inseparable from the oppression he has imposed on her during this time...

It was at this moment that a painful feeling flashed across Sweet Wine Cheese's face.At the same time, those little black tentacles protruded from the dark markings on her skin again.

Seeing this, Yi Ge coughed slightly, hugged the lute in his hand, and said, "What music do you want to hear?"

Rummy covered her arm, gritted her teeth, and turned her head to glance at Ariel next to her.Ariel shook her head slightly, and said, "You have already eaten up the rest of Du Lengjia. You were able to bear it before, and you must be able to bear it now. Come on, we are all here."

Hearing these words, Sweet Wine Cheese let out a breath, her complexion gradually turned pale due to the pain, she turned to Yigo again, and said, "Please...please play me a soothing piece of music... ..."

Egg nodded, and after a little hesitation, his fingers finally pressed down on the strings.

The melodious sound of the piano spread, filling this small cave in this rainy afternoon.
