Chapter 73: A banquet with each other's ulterior motives (Part 2)
"I heard something." "The Future" was tender, refreshing sound from his throat, which was slight rust smelling.
Hearing the sound, "Feng Mine" glanced at "Future" with some concern.
If you are smart enough, in such an occasion that satisfies Moron's vanity, as a loser, especially the "leader" of the "order society", you can maintain absolute cooperation and obedience in the current situation. There will be no good result when conflicts with him in the occasion dominated by Moron.
However, what made him feel relieved was that Moron did not express any dissatisfaction on the surface, but instead smiled generously and made a gesture of invitation.
After a slight pause, "The Future" said directly:
"The entire series of songs in Elysia originated from the dream of a Basceleus in the Central Empire. Before Maimati I, the descendant of the royal family of Ethurman and the Central Empire, replaced the throne of Basceleus IV, "Basceleus" was a transliteration of Saint Rume, meaning "Emperor".
"Later, with the opening of Putoya's era of 'sun never set', the new dynasty of the Central Empire simply used Putoya's 'Emperor' as the official and most formal title. I'm right about these general historical knowledge, Mr. Moron?"
"That's right, it's more accurate." Moron nodded and praised.
"Then I will continue to introduce it." "The Future" said with an inexplicable and dangerous confidence:
"This Bascelius, the emperor, once had a terrible dream. In the dream, the entire empire was besieged by barbarian soldiers. The capital Constantineer, who had been in charge for thousands of years, was bombed by the aerospace army bombs, and the missiles poured into burning scorched earth and ruins.
“He called himself Constantine, known as the Sixteenth, and was as famous as the founder of the city. After the disaster of the dream, he followed the messenger of gods from the universe and fled beyond the endless ocean to the west, and the legend was that the continent built by the old gods and the remnants of the dragon clan came on.
"Here, he seemed to be a pioneer, and he finally established a greater empire with his remaining resources and technology, and named it the "Elysia Empire". The purple robe was wrapped in his body as the crowned holy silk. He enjoyed a short feeling of dominance in less than fifteen minutes, just like Caesar, the great emperor of the central empire in the middle and late periods of the Second Age.
"I know." "Future" paused for a few seconds, pressed his hands on the white tablecloth, stood up straight, walked to Moron, and continued to maintain dangerous excitement.
"There are many different versions of this story, each country, or each person will adapt it according to his needs. Just like the prince of the Southern Country, Ivante, who changed the story background to before the Steam Age, but in any case, the story was heard through the mouth of Constantine XVI, and inspired a court musician who was unknown at that time, and exhausted his entire body to create this collection of music that could be regarded as classics.
"Rumored that after the composition of the last song of the "Starry Sky" series, he stayed in the room for a week and had not come out. When his assistant broke into the door, he found that the surface of the palace musician's body was covered with a layer of devil-like scales. The upper body, especially the head, became the rock shape of the moon surface as seen in a telescope, while the lower body was faintly exposed with the inner tissue like a tree bark.
"Apart from the viscous red liquid that flows out from time to time, with rotten, sour, broken, disgusting smell, he no longer has any characteristics similar to humanity. His room was also covered with a thick layer of metal in the midst of the mutation, becoming a tomb of a strange thing, damp and dark, and even scattering fearless unknown spores.
"It is rumored that he sacrificed his soul to the old gods, perhaps Dipshe, perhaps Cthulhu, to get inspiration to touch the deep mysteries of the universe. Or perhaps, he accepted the order of the distant Creator slaves to sacrifice all the spirit and flesh, completely abandoning the possibility of returning to normal, leaving behind a psalm that can be passed down for generations. But no matter what, the 'Elysia' series of music is great and supreme!"
"The Future" roared, looking up at the top of the hall, as if he regarded the crystal chandelier as the supreme sun or the star under the jurisdiction of the Creator. His hands crossed, his fists clenched above his head, and he made a perfect compliment.
But the people present seemed to be watching a clown with poor business skills, and the audience was silent and extremely calm.
The embarrassing "future" just smiled and said sorry, and walked back to the seat.
After coughing twice, Moron pursed his lips and directed Betofen to the stage. He sat upright in front of the piano. He said in the leader's aura and tone:
"The future is basically correct. His knowledge reserves are indeed extensive. In fact, the "Elysia" series of music is divided into ten chapters: "fall," "save," "reconstruction", "great", "science fiction", "dream", "dream", "reality", "future" and "starry sky". Due to the lack of information, the meaning and background of most of the articles are very vague, but in fact, by the careful playing of the psychic abilities who master the power of the magic source, they can often trigger the extraordinary power of the music.
"Evant discovered that the "Dream" chapter can open up the fog illusion, while the "Starry Sky" chapter will cleanse your and me dirt-filled hearts, drive away the "sorrow" that has long been rooted in the depths of our thinking, and keep us away from collapse.
"It just so happens that in another week, the residents here will carry out a 'pray to the wind' ceremony to celebrate the 'Spring Festival of Wind' here. I think it would be better to send off the long, dark and cold winter with the 'Starry Sky' to welcome the dawn of recovery."
As soon as Moron finished speaking, the lights in the hall were collectively closed in a pre-set mode, leaving only a few candles swaying with faint sparks like fireflies, arranged around Bethofen and his piano.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content below! Then the music starts.
At first, the sound was very light, and only a few notes were monotonically lost in the dark world like lost elves. But soon, as the "elves" began to be mass-produced by pianos, the increasingly complex music began to shine.
In the transition from monotony to complex and from complex to monotony, "Feng Mine" and "Future" were surprised to find that the dim candlelight in front of them turned into lonely stars.
They emit extremely faint silver spots, gradually reproduction and replicating, turning into a river rushing in the long night.
Then, they felt as if they were falling into a brilliant tunnel of high-speed movements, where countless lights shone together, reflecting the contents of the past, future and vast universe.
A few seconds later, the ultimate feeling of falling ended, and a land that seemed to be floating between the sky appeared in front of them.
"Is this an illusion?" "Feng Mine" shook his head, trying to find dissonance in this psychedelic state. However, the changing scenes pulled his will and quickly moved his attention away.
Two stone pillars quickly rose from the illusory continent ahead, their surfaces were covered with moss and black soil, as if they had been standing here for thousands of years. The corroded bodies were engraved with texts that might be the Fire Empire and totems related to flames and dragons.
The body involuntarily "advances" and Feng Mine saw a giant door that was 100 meters high, painted with skin. Looking up, a magnificent castle mixed with the architectural styles of various mainland countries appeared in front of him.
As the music of "Starry Sky" reached its final climax, "Feng Mine" found a crack in the dim "creaking" sound of the giant gate. Just as he was about to reach out and touch it and walked into it, the song came to an abrupt end, the light was turned on again, and everything returned to its original appearance.
When "Feng Mine" slapped his head hard, trying to dispel the unreal hazy and sudden powerlessness brought to him by the music, he was surprised to find that at some point, "Future" had been tied to the ground by Moron's backhand, struggling helplessly.
"Mr. Moron, what does this mean?" "Feng Mine" walked forward and questioned.
"'Future' has committed acts of betraying the Federation. According to the Federal Military Law, he has been arrested." Moron stepped on the back of the "Future" with his hands tied back with his feet, and stood up and said calmly.
"Mr. Moron, accusing betrayal is evidence." "Feng Mine" said in an extremely low voice, with the gloomy warning in his tone, like a violent beast about to launch an attack.
"You haven't seen this 'sequence card' before?" Moron said, winking at the people around him.
With the dark style and slightly heavy card placed in the palm of his hand, "Feng Mine" noticed that except for the two "hunters", all the people around him became neatly dressed, covered with their faces, fully armed, and armed with weapons.
Looking at the familiar "Night Card" in his hand, "Feng Mine" felt dizzy and deep weakness. The star on the card, whose eyes were full of tentacles, seemed to be mocking his situation.
After pretending to look through for a few seconds, the "Wind Mine" quickly stabilized his mentality. He threw the "Nightmare Card" back to Moron and argued:
"One card doesn't explain anything. This type of monster in the order position itself is not valuable. Even the twelve cards are only A-level."
"But this is evidence that the 'future' tries to subvert Lord Vasily and the Cruzde Federation. I think the 'future' not only deceives Order, but also deceives you, the brother who is close to him. He has opposed the search for the 'universe energy evolution platform' from the very beginning, and tries to destroy the upcoming 'evolution platform' by summoning more powerful sequential monsters." Moren said in a stern tone:
"He conducted some illegal ritual in the federal 'Beidou District' and tried to threaten my close friends Wolfya and Dak. I think if they did not cooperate at the time, they would be killed immediately and silenced. This sequel monster's "Nightmare Card: Prayer" is just a compensation similar to the hush fee. If you think it is not enough as evidence, then how do you explain this 'melting body' and the 'Eternal Cold Heart' in his body?"
As he said that, the fully armed federal soldiers stood up with the unconscious strong "unintentional person" and "melting a strange body" and threw it in front of the "wind mine" and "future".
"Um...um..."
Seeing this, "Future" excitedly tried to defend or curse something, but before he could say it, Moron stepped on his face and pressed it down hard, making only a low, angry struggle sound.
Seeing that the "future" was treated so cruelly, the "Feng Mine" tried to surge the powerful wind-type magic power in its body, trying to fight Moron to death.
However, a feeling of exhaustion and powerlessness suddenly spread throughout his body. Not only did the magic power not condense at all, the sudden fainting almost made him stand unsteadily, so he had to weakly support him on the edge of the long square table so that he would not fall in humiliation.
At the same time, through his light, he discovered that all the federal soldiers around him were carrying the "Sunflower" rocket launcher with huge "cannon barrels". The cannonball carved with the double-headed eagle pattern was once one of the products of the peak technology of the old empire.
