Doomsday Totem

Chapter 302 Vigilance
The old man let out a long sigh and said: "All of you here, old friends who participated in the last war, or their successors, maybe you have forgotten, but I have not, and I will never forget..."

"Even if I die tomorrow, I will remember it the moment before I die!"

"Beware of the remnants of glory, beware of the poetry of the bright moon, beware of the rain that falls on the city, beware of the starless light, beware of the images of mountains, beware of the sword of the vast, beware of the horn of the ice field, beware of the harpoon of the deep sea, and beware of the eyes of the falcon..."

"No one would want to repeat that war. Back then, our 75 troops..."

At this time, another old man stood up abruptly and interrupted the former's words roughly: "Old Bruno! Don't deliberately raise the value of the enemy and belittle the glory of your own people just to brag about your achievements!"

"Old Clemens, you are also a person who participated in the last battle, have you forgotten?" Old Bruno said emotionally with tears in the corners of his eyes.

"I haven't forgotten, and I don't dare to forget. Everything that happened back then is still vivid in my mind..." Old Climans took a deep breath, stared at his old comrade with reddish eyes, and said, "But now , we have the two most powerful armies in human history, 60.00% of the parish, and the most advanced technology in the world, what else do we need to worry about?"

"That's right, on the surface, we are indeed stronger than before. Both in terms of numbers and equipment, we are several times that of 180 three years ago, but..." the old Bruno said, "Look at the young people now. People, how many pious ones are there? How many are there who have the spirit of sacrifice? If we fight again, do you think we can win? Especially the current Dawn Expeditionary Army, which is almost rotten to the root..."

"What's wrong with the Dawn Expeditionary Army?" St. Augustan Modleton stood up and asked with a bit of fiery temperament.The reason why he was angry was very simple, because the current Marshal of the Dawn Expeditionary Army was his granddaughter.To blame the Dawn Expedition is to blame Yogo Lombard Modleton.

"I'm already old, and I'm still talking so excitedly. Be careful that the blood vessels in my brain burst, and I'm going to be dementia." Old Gresham quickly stood up to smooth things over.

"I see, stop arguing..." An old woman wearing gold-rimmed glasses stood up tremblingly and said, "I will not accept the pursuit of any of you. Dedicate your life to the true God, you all give up."

"Uh..." "This..." "You sit down first, we have no dispute." "Old Gresham is right, we have no dispute..."

"It's fine if there is no dispute..." The old woman sat down again, and the four old men breathed a sigh of relief.

After that, the atmosphere eased a lot.

Old Bruno waved his hand and said, "I don't intend to accuse the granddaughter of the eleventh generation. Even if she is wrong, it's not her fault, but us old guys' fault..." He paused, looked around, and made sure there was no objection After commenting, he continued, "The corruption problem of the Liming Expeditionary Army did not start in the past few years, but has existed for a long time..." He shook his head and sighed, "In the past few decades, every year has become more and more serious. Poor, they held up the banner of the Holy Light Cleanser to seek their own self-interest, and some officers even secretly raised female worms for their entertainment..."

After listening to old Bruno's words, all the elders fell silent.In fact, they all know that today's Liming Expeditionary Army has a large scale, numerous internal factions, intricate relationships, intertwined interest chains, entanglements, constant disputes, and endless internal fighting.Just like a terminally ill leprosy patient, his body is covered with malignant tumors, and he wants to remove them completely, but he is afraid of harming his life, and it is very difficult to treat them step by step.As soon as this place was cured, the other side began to fester again, as if in an endless cycle with no beginning and no end.

In the silence, old Bruno took out a piece of yellowed letterhead from his pocket and read a passage from his diary.

"The war has been over for many years, but my heart is still heavy. Although we won the final victory. If possible, I hope I can forget this history and this war. But I know, she has It is deeply engraved in my mind and will accompany me to the end of my life.

Today, the purpose of my writing this paragraph is not to record our victory, but to pay our deepest respect to our opponents.

Dr 3531, September 9rd, the war came to an end.On this day, we launched an attack on a stronghold of the Brilliant Faith.

After several battles, they were at the end of their strength, and only the seriously wounded were left in the stronghold.However, at the last moment, they still charged us.They were either leaning on crutches, or pushing wheelchairs, or moving on the ground, singing their battle songs and rushing towards us...

The scene at that time was something I had never seen before.Their will to fight, their determination to die, is unimaginable if you have not seen it with your own eyes.Facing such an opponent, I felt deeply shocked and terrified.However, I am not ashamed to fear such an opponent.I think there was no one who wasn't scared at the time.I even began to doubt my own beliefs. As a devout believer and a servant of the true God, I am willing to sacrifice my life for the Holy Light and Glory at any time.But I know clearly that we may never be able to do what they did.

No one surrendered, no one gave up, and no one survived.

At this moment, I stand in front of the window, facing the north, and pay my deepest respect to our opponents. It is the greatest honor of my life to be able to fight against them.At the same time, I would like to warn my descendants, please be vigilant at all times, and never underestimate them.

Even if one day, we become the masters of the world.
-
Saint Zachary Bruno. "

"This is the suicide note left by my cousin, the 470th Pope. Maybe we can't change the status quo for the time being, but we can minimize their threat."

"We all know that the remnants of the glory still exist. They call themselves 'Spark', lurking in the dark corners, ready to move..."

"However, as long as there is no advanced mechanical power armor, they will never be able to compete with us."

"This is my point of view, I'm done with my words." Old Bruno finished his speech and sat down slowly.Afterwards, the meeting hall fell into a long silence...

After an unknown amount of time, a crisp voice suddenly broke the silence.

"Grandpa and grandma, please listen to You Ge's little advice." Then, she looked around the audience peacefully.Quietly, she said slowly, "Since ancient times, decay has bred in comfort..."

"The sword is dusty, it is because there is no dispute over the throne, and the hero is sleeping, it is because there is no equal challenge."

"Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, I can feel the magnificence and magnificence of that battle from the lines in the ancient books."

"Facing the crazy heretics, under the guidance of the Holy Light, our knights marched forward bravely, invincible, and finally won the whole world."

"We are winners, they are losers!"

"However, as winners, we are proud, so there are some small flaws."

"But it doesn't matter. When our enemies appear again, I believe our knights will polish their swords, revive their glory, and let the holy light shine on every corner of the world."

"Even if they have the same technology as ours, such as black oil power armor, we can still defeat, obliterate, and destroy them again like 200 years ago!"

"This group of glorious remnants hides in the shadows of light and shadow, like rats in the sewer, dirty and ugly."

"Compared to them, we are cats. Even if we are lame, blind, toothless, or tail broken, we are still their natural enemies."

Speaking of this, You Ge showed a sly smile and said, "Let's imagine how lonely the cat would be if there were no mice in the world~" Then, her face froze and she said with a fierce look in her eyes, "As the lion will tear the flesh, and the wolf will bite the throat, so our sword will drink the blood of the remnant of glory!"

"Grandparents, You Ge has finished speaking."

After a moment of silence, there was a burst of contemptuous applause in the conference hall.

"She is my granddaughter." "She is my great-granddaughter." "She is my granddaughter of the eighth generation." "She is my granddaughter of the eleventh generation." "When she was young, I gave her candy." " What is sugar, I even took her to the circus." "I knit a scarf for her."

"As expected, it is the blood of our family, the longer it grows, the more beautiful it is." "Look at her nose, it is exactly the same as her grandparents when she was young." "Look, the ears of Bruno's family, look at my ears, right? Printed in the same mold as her."

The old men and old ladies began to discuss again, until the sun went down and the meeting ended...

In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun shines on rows of towering minarets.A long iron rod is inserted at the top of the spire, and at the end of the iron rod, a semicircular iron ring and a short iron rod are welded to form a cross shape.If you stand on the clouds and look down at this moment, you can see the bottom of the minaret, which is a roof of glazed tiles layered upon layer.At this moment, the translucent glazed tiles are reflecting pale golden light, as if coating the solemn and solemn Temple of the Sun with a layer of golden sand.
After a while, Yu Ge left the meeting hall of the Presbyterian Church surrounded by iron guards. On the way to the tarmac, William Reinhardt caught up.

"Cousin You Ge, I apologize to you for my ignorant brother." William said with a sincere attitude and a calm tone.

"Cousin William, I should apologize to you for what happened last time. I went too far. I hope Reinhardt will forgive me." You Ge nodded slightly and said sincerely.

"You mean..." William asked cautiously, looking at the delicate face of his distant cousin.

"It's even." You Ge raised his head and said.

"Great." Hearing the reply from "Little Devil", William breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a bit of excitement.

But at this moment, You Ge suddenly said with a long voice: "But..."

"What's the matter?" William asked hastily as his face changed.

"On the summer agenda of this year's World Parliament..."

You Ge said something pointedly, and William quickly stated: "On behalf of the Reinhardt family, I will fully support Cousin You Ge."

"Thank you." You Ge smiled slightly, then she raised her head and looked towards the sky.After a few seconds of silence, she seemed to be talking to herself, and said leisurely, "I will send someone to talk to them over there in the Crescent Moon Alliance. They always hold on to little things from the past, which is really annoying. .”

William was startled for a moment, but then he came to his senses, bowed in surprise and said, "My princess, on behalf of all the members of the Reinhardt family, William would like to express my gratitude to you!"
