Chapter 111 Mountain Spirits
King Tertullian was 860 years old.

Even if the Logosians are extremely long-lived, at his age, most of them have long since said goodbye to the world.

Tertullian was also old, his body grew weak day by day, his hair lost all its luster, his skin wrinkled and drooped.

But Tertullian is still alive.

Since establishing a new kingdom in this new world, Tertullian has spent nearly 400 years here. Although he suffered from illness during this period, he was overwhelmed by his tenacious vitality.

Therefore, Tertullian, the second son of the prophet, still ruled the kingdom.

The scene of the new kingdom is very different from the old kingdom under the mountains.

The thousands of Logosians brought to this world by Tertullian, relying on dense forests and abundant prey, lived a dual life of hunters and priests again.

They have wheat, pottery, and livestock. These are the same as the old kingdom. The difference is that these things are more like icing on the cake. Their life revolves around the beautiful forest, which is simple but not boring. Plain joy spreads all over the place. piece of land.

Perhaps because of this, the temperament of the Logos people here has not changed for hundreds of years.

Although they are far from the mountains of God, they are more like the Logosians of hundreds of years ago than the people of the Old Kingdom.

The New Kingdom is located on the alluvial plain, with mountains gathered in all directions, majestic and majestic, so sometimes, people in the New Kingdom call themselves Mountain People.

Since the narwhal sent the stone tablet about the three-eyed ape-man in the Old Kingdom, the term "elf" became popular in the kingdom.There is no other reason, this title is really beautiful.

These Logos people occasionally call themselves:

Mountain elves.

In the eyes of the people of the New Kingdom, this is an extremely beautiful and appropriate title.

Constrained by the dangerous hunting life, the instability of hunting, and the huge deviation in the ratio of men to women among the first few thousand people who boarded the ship, the population of the New Kingdom seldom experienced explosive growth until 400 years later. Today, there are only 9000 people.

The long life and simple needs have allowed the mountain elves here to cultivate good dispositions.

However, the crisis of rationality in the old kingdom did not set off a huge wave that submerged the kingdom in this new kingdom.

The Narwhal brings the Tablets of the Old Kingdom to King Tertullian.

It was engraved by King Dorre immediately after the angel's death.

King Tertullian looked at the contents of the slate in astonishment, reading every word on it repeatedly.

The angel came to earth and was killed by the Logosians.

The stone slab only told one story, and the engraving on it was extremely hasty, and every sentence revealed great panic.

King Tertullian read all the above descriptions.

Just like my own experience 400 years ago, the afterimage of God appeared through the leaves.

Only, this time, not because of salvation, but because the Logos put his angel to death.

On the throne, King Tertullian put down the slate, and the shock in his heart could not be added.

King Tertullian stood up from the throne tremblingly, pacing in the palace.

The palace of the New Kingdom was built by hollowing out the heart of a towering giant tree, so King Tertullian paced very softly, making it difficult for the guards to hear his worry from the sound of his footsteps.

After a great psychological struggle, King Deltrian finally made a decision.

"Let the High Priest come here."

The New Kingdom also has the Garden of Law and the priests of the Garden of Law, which were modeled after the original Garden of Law.

Not long after King Tertullian gave the order, the High Priest of the New Kingdom came hastily to the palace.

"king,

Why did you summon me? "

King Tertullian rose from his throne and walked slowly towards the High Priest of the New Kingdom.

"High Priest, this is the slate of the old kingdom. Take it and read it to the people of the kingdom. In the name of God, no matter what you read, you must not write a single word."

King Tertullian ordered solemnly, and the high priest couldn't help being puzzled.

The high priest quickly glanced at the content on the slate, and then his face slowly turned pale.

"Killed...an angel of God?!"

The high priest held the slate tremblingly and almost fell to the ground.

After a long time, the high priest had read the content on the slate repeatedly, and his face was covered with sweat.

"Wang...do you really want to read the contents of this slate?!"

The voice of the high priest was crying.

King Deltrian nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice:
"All major events in the kingdom must be read out to the people of the kingdom."

After hesitating, the high priest nodded slightly. He hugged the stone slab and was supported by King Deltrian out of the palace.

...............

In this way, the Logos people executed the angel, and another crisis of rationality came, which was learned by the mountain elves.

The mountain elves naturally fell into a momentary panic, but it was only a momentary panic.

They were not the ones who executed the angels, and they were not the ones who threw the stones. It was difficult for the mountain elves to empathize with this great crisis of rationality.

Although many mountain elves felt guilty or ashamed, that feeling didn't go deep into their bones.

"My lord, what shall we do?"

After the high priest had read the words on the tablet, he asked King Tertullian.

"What do you want to do, High Priest?"

King Tertullian raised his old face, his eyes were extremely sharp.

"I... I don't know, maybe we should... help them?"

The high priest said tremblingly.

"That's impractical, High Priest."

King Deltrian sighed and said in a deep voice:

"The old kingdom is not facing doomsday, nor is it facing floods, and there are no foreign enemies such as flying dragons. If we rush to help them, what can we help?"

After hearing this, the high priest nodded heavily.

As King Tertullian said, what the old kingdom faced was not an external aggression, but an internal one, an invisible crisis of reason.

Even if the whole new kingdom goes to help, not only will it be of no avail, it may even add fuel to the fire.

This crisis of rationality can only be relied on by the Old Kingdom itself.
