Chapter 1133 Original Sin

When Tang En and Elsa returned to Gunther's side, Gunther had basically recovered his strength and his injuries were almost healed.

The stronger the Apocalypse is, the weaker the effect of the goddess's blood will be. However, the ones Tang En prepared for Elsa and their confidants are all highly concentrated, so the effect is still very good.

"His Majesty."

Gunther knelt on one knee in front of Tang En and said with a look of shame: "My subordinate failed to kill Stanley. Please punish me."

Tang En waved his hand: "It's okay. I met him just now. His power is a bit strange. Please describe to me the situation when you fought him just now."

"As commanded."

So Gunther recounted what happened in the field to Tang En in detail, without deleting a word. After listening to Gunther's description, Tang En frowned: "In other words, Stanley made a deal with the devil? Obtained the special power of the bloodthirsty demon of Comala?"

"Yes, he exposed this himself, but his power is obviously incomplete, so he cannot kill me directly. He needs to hurt me first to get my blood."

Gunther smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't expect that he actually had such a method. I was almost killed by him if I didn't pay attention."

"I understand, you should rest first."

Tang En asked Gunther to rest, and he stood there in a daze.

Stanley actually made a deal with the devil, just to gain power? Or is there some deep-seated reason behind this? Could it be that this is a temptation by the devil to test the surface world? Do they want to return to the earth?

After Tang En pondered for a moment, his eyes fell on the most conspicuous castle in Blood Rock City.

It seems necessary to go there and investigate.

Elsa couldn't bear to see those people die so meaninglessly, and whispered: "Your Majesty, brother, Stanley's life and death are unknown now, can this war be over?"

"yes……"

Tang En looked at the battlefield and murmured to himself: "These people died so worthlessly..."

It's not that Tang En is ruthless, it's actually that his mission forces him to measure these human lives with value. Now these Gris people are dying here without making any contribution to Purandal. It is obviously a worthless death and consumption. .

Even if these people are treated as slaves and sent to work in the mines as hard labor, or trained to become workers on the assembly line, or even farmers, it is much more meaningful than dying on this battlefield like this.

But now, these strong laborers who should have been put to use have all died here.

Waste, really wasteful.

In fact, this "war" has been fought so far, and there is no difference between stopping and continuing.

The powerful lethality derived from the magically modified weapons has completely defeated the half-million-strong army gathered by Stanley. Now there are probably less than ten people left, and these people have obviously been frightened to death by such a cheap death. , the soldiers who had no fighting spirit were running away like crazy, sacrificing themselves for His Majesty Stanley and dedicating everything they had to Grace's future became insignificant under the threat of life.

Under Tang En's order, the thunderous artillery fire gradually subsided. The soldiers of the Illus Empire formed a group with tanks as the core and began to slowly advance towards Blood Rock City. Not long after advancing, they came to the smoke-filled battlefield. central.

Looking at the broken limbs on the ground, the brains of the excited Ilrus soldiers gradually cooled down, and each one of them couldn't help but tremble.

These are all lives that died under their control. They didn't even see the faces of these people clearly, they just moved their fingers...

Killing has never been easier than now.

It is precisely because of this that they feel extremely afraid - if this weapon falls into the hands of others, will the person who dies here be themselves?

War, why is there war?

Soldiers, especially new recruits with little combat experience, suddenly began to hate war as never before.

War is the root of all evil. There is no winner or loser. Both sides in the war are losers.

On the battlefield, a soldier resisted the urge to vomit and muttered to himself: "This war should not have started..."

A veteran said angrily: "Don't be stupid. This battle with Grace was already destined to happen when Solant returned to the Illrus Empire."

"But this is too cruel..."

"Cruel? When the Graces massacred the Principality of Silla, were they cruel?"

"But the people who massacred the Principality of Sila are not necessarily these people. They are innocent. Maybe some of them are moderates who do not want war. The really cruel ones are the radical Graces..."

"No one is innocent in a war. When these so-called moderates enjoy the fame, wealth and status brought to them by the radicals, they are already the same type of people. If they do not oppose the war, they acquiesce. War is also a sinner."

The veteran paused, pointed to a staring corpse on the ground and said: "He may have a wife and children. As you said, he may be just a moderate who wants to live a peaceful life, but now, he fell on the battlefield. , what do you think this is because of?"

"Because of what?"

"Although the main reason is Stanley, isn't there his own reason for this?"

The veteran asked the new recruit: "Every Grisian knows that they are enjoying everything that the Gris soldiers burned, killed, looted and looted outside, but they just accepted it all silently and took it for granted. There was no one at all." Stand up and question whether those soldiers did something wrong, but no one stands up to condemn this behavior, and no one makes a voice for the innocent people who died."

"When the Shiraz people protested against this brutal behavior of the Gris, they turned a blind eye."

"This kind of tacit attitude is the biggest sin. When they don't care about other people's lives and thoughts, why should others care about their thoughts?"

"When Grace was surrounded by war and Stanley, whom they admired, asked them to stand up, they may not be willing to stand up, but in the end they had no choice but to stand up. This is the price they have to pay. ...Although this price comes a little late, at least the innocent souls of Sira and Ivalan can rest in peace."

The recruit was silent, feeling terrible now.

The veteran patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Look at it, so this is war...someone has to die, either the enemy will die or we will die. Only the victors are qualified to live."

The recruit couldn't help but question: "But why is there a war? Why can't everyone sit together calmly and share the world together?"

The veteran smiled: "You haven't read the book, have you? Humanity was once a unified country. All humans were one family. The only empire was the Illus Empire."

The recruit was stunned, he really didn't know about this.

"The three kingdoms of Solant, Ronitant, and Grace, as well as those principalities, all split away after the Illrus Empire fell into weakness after the second Chaos Invasion War."

The veteran said with a sarcastic look: "So strictly speaking, these countries are traitors to the Illrus Empire. They are now paying for the ambitions of their ancestors."

"Traitor...?"

"Yes. What's more, isn't His Majesty Tang En working hard to achieve this goal now? Solant has returned. Although Ronitant has not changed much, it is impossible to resist the general trend with its military strength. Sooner or later These countries will come back and become a whole nation."

The veteran said crisply: "You should be glad that now we have His Majesty Tang En, so we are here to regain the Kingdom of Grace, instead of waiting for Grace to come knocking on the door and turn Alexis into a dead building. city."

"So this is ah……"

"That's it. Fighting with His Majesty Tang En is the greatest honor in your life. You must keep this in mind."

The veteran pointed at the heavy armored tank next to him: "Have you seen it? Is there anything else on the battlefield that can give you the same sense of security as it? But it was created by His Majesty Tang En!"

"His Majesty Tang En allocates us the blood of the goddess and powerful weapons and equipment. He hopes that we will become powerful and invincible. However, he has never been a warlike careerist, never!"

The veteran said categorically: "If His Majesty Tang En wanted to conquer the world through force, he would have done it long ago, but he did not do that. He just made our lives better step by step, making Yi The Errus Empire becomes more powerful to attract those people to actively return to the Errus Empire."

"Now, even the Ronitants, who were once rich in the world, always look envious when they mention us, Illus. How could such a thing happen before? And the reason why we can be so proud of ourselves Being proud of the Illus people, isn't it what His Majesty Down brought? Have you ever seen a more merciful and greater Majesty than him?"

"No……"

"So, believe His Majesty Tang En. He will never attack the Kingdom of Grace without any reason. This war proves that the mistakes made by this country can no longer be forgiven casually. They must be You have to pay the price with your life.”

After the veteran finished speaking, he patted the recruit on the shoulder and continued to patrol the battlefield.

The recruit silently pondered the truth behind the veteran's words in his heart. The chaotic and complicated thoughts slowly became clearer, and the tangled and heavy thoughts finally came to light. Looking at the corpses on the battlefield, he was finally able to face it calmly.

The crime of killing? If this killing can make the world a better place, then let us bear this guilt.
