When Lieutenant Colonel Hank saw this scene, his expression changed and he just wanted to give himself a slap. Three people were already dead. The children were already about to collapse emotionally, but he only added fuel to the fire.
"It's not your fault, Lieutenant Colonel."
"They'll know anyway."
Professor Wilson's face was also full of fatigue. After experiencing so many things, even he was exhausted.
"Professor, is this true?"
"We're not dreaming?"
However, even so, Lieutenant Colonel Hank still found it a little hard to accept, and reluctantly asked again.
"The results are already obvious."
The old professor shook his head and said ruthlessly.
"It's not that our language is incomprehensible, but that it has undergone tremendous changes over a long period of time."
"But if you have studied and deciphered ancient documents, you will still have some understanding of their language."
According to the confession of this prisoner, it is now the 9998th year of the Imperial Calendar.
'Kingslayer' and 'Bloody Emperor' Aaron Targaryen is old and lying on the hospital bed waiting to die. The gradually declining dragons can no longer suppress the turmoil in all directions. The huge empire is falling into a war-torn war.
In a dangerous situation.
The captured prisoner was a member of the rebel army. He was originally a farmer in the Storm Province.
However, due to the stupidity of the emperor, the cruelty and ruthlessness of the local nobles, and the recent heavy rains, the crops were washed away. Natural disasters and man-made disasters combined with many difficulties, and finally had no choice but to join the rebel army, following a
The masked knight calling himself "Blackfire" embarked on the road of rebellion.
The main force of the rebel army is currently attacking a town in the Storm Province with all its strength nearby.
He and his teammates were scouts sent out to investigate the surrounding situation and be wary of possible Imperial Legion rescues, but they did not expect to find members of the scientific expedition team in the mountains.
Because there were not many people in the scientific expedition team, there were old and young, men and women, and they were dressed strangely, so the scouts suspected that they were the lackeys of the empire and wanted to strike first, but in the end they were easily destroyed by the other party.
.
But this only solidifies their ‘identity’.
This must be a "magician" sent by the empire, who can use a kind of "fire-breathing" and "killing people from a distance" magic.
"Master, please spare my life."
The captured prisoner's face was full of panic, and he just kept kowtowing and begging the 'noble gentlemen' for his life.
And so far, the language that has spanned ten thousand years is indeed not very fluent. It is lucky to be able to barely communicate to this point.
What this prisoner knew was equally limited. After all, for an ancient farmer, the amount of effective information they had access to throughout their lives was not as good as a newspaper in the future world.
It is good for him to know the title and taboo of the current emperor, which also means that His Majesty the Emperor is indeed "mighty and famous".
As for more information about this era, they don't know anything about it. They only know that they followed their leader's fellow captain to fight and did whatever they were asked to do.
Even the commander of the rebel army they belonged to, the masked knight who called himself "Black Fire", did not know his name or identity, he had only met him once on the battlefield.
The opponent was riding a white war horse with noble blood. It looked like it was worth a lot of money. It had silver armor engraved with various magic symbols. It could wield a big sword with one hand, cutting gold, jade, and iron like mud. It was suspected that it was a sword.
Dragonsteel greatsword.
Whenever he goes into battle, he wears a metal mask on his face, which only reveals a pair of determined eyes, and he also has long black hair like a waterfall.
This young masked knight who calls himself "Blackfire" is extremely brave in battle. As the commander of the largest rebel army in the Storm Province, he is extremely brave and often takes the lead, inspiring the soldiers to fight bravely.
Even if he is surrounded by the Imperial Legion, he is fearless and can kill three in and three out, making him the bravest of the three armies.
Moreover, according to legend, when he is fighting vigorously, his whole body will be wrapped by a ghost knight composed of black mist, making him invincible and making his enemies frightened.
The 'Black Fire' Knight is the spiritual belief of all rebel soldiers. Although it is said that he also came from a poor family, he is still too far away for ordinary soldiers.
And after reaching this stage and pulling together such a huge team, he is no longer an ordinary person.
Therefore, what we know is limited, and it is difficult to get any useful information out of this prisoner's mouth.
But for Professor Wilson, who is well versed in the history of ancient empires, this amount of information is enough to make a judgment.
“‘Kingslayer’ ‘Bloody Emperor’ Aaron Targaryen.”
On the other side, the gray-haired old professor recalled the key information he had just received from the prisoner, thought for a moment and organized his words, and then spoke in a deep voice.
"Today is the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-eighth year of the Imperial Calendar."
"He was the penultimate emperor of the ancient empire, known for his bloodiness and cruelty."
"The great foundation that has been passed down for thousands of years has officially come to an end in his hands."
But now Lieutenant Colonel Hank, who has resignedly accepted that he traveled to ancient times ten thousand years ago, is listening to the old professor's explanation with dull eyes.
"The penultimate emperor of the ancient empire?"
"So we have traveled to a very turbulent period?"
Lieutenant Colonel Hank said with a wry smile.
"But since he is the emperor, why does he have the title of 'regicide'?"
"Because Aaron Targaryen killed his father."
Professor Wilson patiently explained.
"According to legend, he was once cursed."
"And that comes from his father."
"His father did not listen to the wise advice and warnings at that time, but instead arrogantly executed the chief magician of the palace. Therefore, he was cursed, 'the person he trusts most will take away the throne.'"
"And Aaron Targaryen, who was still the crown prince at the time, killed his father with his own hands a year later, thus earning the notoriety of the 'Kinkiller' and the 'Kingslayer'."
"However, the old emperor only had one direct descendant like Aaron, and the important officials in the court believed that he had been "cursed" to do such a bad behavior, so they all acquiesced in Aaron's ascension to the Iron Throne."
"However, no one thought that the newly ascended emperor was indeed a more bloody, cruel, and crazy tyrant than his father, which is why he was nicknamed the 'Kingslayer' and the 'Bloody Emperor'."
"And he should be very old now."
"Aaron Targaryen is said to have lived to be over eighty years old before dying in his bed suffering from illness."
"In his later years, the aging emperor was unable to continue his brutal rule. The once invincible imperial army had long been eroded by corruption and lost its courage, and there were not many dragons left that the ancient imperial royal family was proud of.
"
"Revolts and teams that wanted to overthrow the tyrant's rule appeared in every land of the huge empire."
