In a closed room in the commander's palace of Ramiel Fortress, Wuyou and others were sitting around a round conference table in the room.
Everyone's expressions were very solemn, especially Long Tian, who always hated evil, and he was looking at Tian Nan with evil and complicated eyes.
He himself didn't realize that the tea cup in his hand had been crushed out of anger. The blood was diluted by the tea and flowed down with them, dripping drop by drop on the smooth floor.
In such a silent environment, the sound of dripping blood was particularly abrupt. "Tick-tock, tick-tock..." added an inexplicable sense of tension to the already silent chamber.
Sitting next to Long Tian was Wuyou. Her eyes were slightly lowered, staring at the cup in her hand without saying a word. No one knew what he was thinking.
The person sitting in the first place was not the commander of the city defense army of Ramiel Fortress, but Tian Nan who had previously claimed to know something.
Tiannan was already dark, but the look of self-blame and regret on his face now gave people a creepy feeling.
Sitting on the right side of Tian Nan was the commander of the city defense army and several team captains. These people were also very strange. They looked at Tian Nan and then at the commander of the city defense army. They did not speak, but just waited for their commander's order.
.
The commander of the city defense army frowned deeply, as if he was troubled by something. He turned a blind eye to the looks of these subordinates, and was just thinking about something quietly.
After Tiannan wanted to tell everyone the truth, in order to prevent the news from spreading, everyone decided to go to the secret room to learn the truth.
At Tian Nan's request, everyone made an oath not to tell anyone about this conversation.
In this way, in this secret room, which was originally used as a meeting place for the military, Tiannan recounted everything he knew.
The reason why everyone reacted like this was actually because what Tian Nan said was so shocking and serious that it could shake the situation of the entire continent.
The first thing that stunned everyone was Tian Nan's enviable identity, the twin brother of the King of the Nanfeng Empire - Nantian, the prince of the Nanfeng Empire.
Tiannan's real name is Nantian, but he changed his name to Tiannan just to hide his identity. After all, the only people with the surname Nan in the entire continent of Oskar are the royal family of the Nanfeng Empire.
If you want to ask why Prince Nantian appears here, it has to do with the Necromancer.
As early as two years ago, the Necromancer had already got his hands on the Nanfeng Empire. It can be said that the entire Nanfeng Empire is under the control of the Necromancer. The empire has completely become the puppet of the Necromancer, ranging from officials to the common people.
, in order to save their lives or for strength, they all chose to be loyal to the Necromancer.
Nan Tian was originally an idle prince. The Nan Feng Empire had always been stable, and he had never coveted the throne. Therefore, the free Nan Feng could be said to be the happiest prince in the Nan Feng Empire.
Under the care of his brother Nan Yu, he has always lived a carefree life. Even if the empire was controlled by the necromancer in the later period, Nan Yu took good care of him. As long as his brother wanted to do anything, Nan Yu would do it without hesitation.
Agree without hesitation.
The first disagreement between the two brothers. The first quarrel was over these necromancers. Nan Yu, who was obsessed with power, agreed to donate 100 people to the necromancers every three months to provide them with human bodies.
Require.
However, it is not easy to find the corpses of a hundred people, and the Necromancer strictly requires that they must be freshly deceased corpses, which makes it even more difficult. Previously, Nanyu could use the entire empire's capabilities to find such qualified corpses.
But as time passed, there were not enough corpses at all, so Nan Yu listened to the opinions of the ministers and began to donate death row prisoners and prisoners to the necromancers. However, this method could only last for a while, not long-term.
Under the threat of the necromancer, a minister suggested that he could make up stories to fool the people, and then select a hundred people to sacrifice.
This method is indeed effective, and there is absolutely no worries. People believe in the theory of gods and demons. Moreover, gods and demons do exist. It can be an honor for the 100 people who became sacrifices. However, this method cannot
Fooling those citizens who still have sense, those people can only watch their relatives and friends being taken away, and dare not speak out in anger.
After Nan Tian saw the horrifying and disgusting evil sacrifice, he quarreled with Nan Yu when he returned to the palace.
Nan Yu also has his own difficulties. After all, the Necromancer is too powerful. Even if the entire empire cannot compete with it, it is helpless to compromise and keep the stability of the people.
But a kind-hearted person would naturally not be able to stand seeing such cruel behavior. No matter how Nan Yu explained, he just couldn't listen.
The two had a big quarrel and almost fell out. Nan Yu also pointed out that the reason why he was the stable prince was not the beneficiary of what he had done. Without Nan Yu's protection, Nan Tian might have fallen into intrigues.
.
Looking at his brother's distorted expression, Nan Tian felt helpless in his heart. He already understood that he could not stop his brother from cooperating with the necromancer, but he could not stand by and watch the innocent people being harmed, so he had no choice but to leave.
He chose to remain anonymous and be a free mercenary, staying away from the country, responsibility, and intrigues to live the life he wanted.
I remember that when he left, Nan Yu said to him seriously: "You are not suitable for such a society. Imperial power will only bring you responsibilities. Since you choose to leave, never come back! I will shoulder your responsibilities for you."
!”
Although Nan Yu didn't like this younger brother with such a personality, he acquiesced to his behavior out of doting on him. In this way, Nan Tian succeeded. He has been living freely and comfortably for the past two years.
But fate is like this. Maybe you try your best to escape, but it will still come to you. This is what people often call fate!
After staying away from the Nanfeng Empire for two years, he actually met those necromancers again in this foreign country's frontier. From the time the necromancers appeared to now, Nantian has been in a conflict. What is more important, freedom and responsibility, and his brother's words when leaving are still like yesterday.
.
Seeing everyone being injured by the Necromancer, and seeing the Necromancer's powerful strength like a god, he began to worry. Now that they have appeared in the Beiyue Empire, he wonders how his brother is doing, and is the Nanfeng Empire still there?
The earth elemental elves were taken away, and the necromancers became more powerful. If such a spirit-gathering formation was used in the already puppet-like Nanfeng Empire, how would the people of the Nanfeng Empire escape? Will they become an army again?
A powerful undead army?
Thinking of this, Nan Tian decided to pick up the long-abandoned responsibility again, wanting to fulfill his responsibility for his empire and his brother. A prince protects the people, and a younger brother protects his elder brother.
After some struggle, he chose to confess the truth to everyone in this crowd, which might deeply hurt his brother's reputation.
But this is a kind of redemption. After Nan Tian told everything, his heart suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. Although he had shouldered the heavy responsibility of a prince of a country, the slow feeling of guilt and guilt in his heart was not that strong anymore. The past has passed.
It was irreversible. All he could do now was to make amends, to make up for the sin of being a deserter when he was unable to make up for it, and to make up for the sins of the Nanfeng Empire royal family to the people over the years.
Long Tian was angry because of Nan Tian's behavior of deserting soldiers. He had always hated evil. If he were Nan Tian, he would have sworn to protect the people and fight the necromancer to the death, instead of going away from home anonymously.
What made him even more angry was that such a deserter was actually his best brother, which was even more difficult for him to accept than being a deserter himself.
Long Tian's hand was still holding the pieces of the teacup tightly, and everyone was deep in thought. The entire continent was in turmoil.
