Longmen Memoirs

When did he start to change his ideals, and when did this patriotic general become insidious and cunning, and no longer cared about the land left by his ancestors.

"The Sakaz people have shed enough blood for this, but they still have not been able to change their situation. The older generation does not trust outsiders, because the former kings have been wandering in this land and were contradicted and killed by outsiders. Oppressed and treated like pigs and dogs until they finally established Sakaz.”

Kelsey's words continued:

"They have reason to stick to this homeland that belongs to the Sakaz people. Because Theresia's policy of accepting outsiders made them choose to support Traces. So when the Sakaz elders in the Senate opposed Theresia's acceptance While outsiders were governing Sarkaz, Teresis usurped Thearesia's throne."

Kelxi's eyes fell on Chen Mo.

"You may not know that Theresa was once a person who strongly opposed foreign interference in Kazdaele. She did not agree with people other than Sarkaz governing this country, so she launched that defense campaign. Kazdaele’s War.”

"They are all seeking a future path for the Sakaz people in their own way. There is nothing wrong with this. It is just because of their ideals that they have come to the opposite side. Theresia will not tell you this, but she has been feeling sad about it. , because she believed in her heart that the civil war in Sakaz started because of her and could be avoided."

There was helplessness in Kelsey's voice. She seemed to be reminded of Kazdaele's efforts in the past, and the country lost its best opportunity for revival.

The royal family of Sarkaz should have led their people to revive their homeland instead of letting Kazdaele fall into war.

"The war against the invasion changed Teresis, and it also changed Theresia. They both found what they were pursuing."

The prosperity abroad made the once patriotic general choose a more iron-blooded way to fight for, compromise with them, and use conspiracy to slowly plan. The prosperity abroad also allowed the former princess to see many ideas and realize that Kazdel could not rest on its laurels. , so it changed from resistance to acceptance.

This was the first time that Chen Mo heard from Kelsi about the past of Kazdaele, and about the reason why Theresia, the current monarch of Sarkaz, would be in exile to the point where she is about to lose Kazdaele.

"I agree with some of what you said."

Kelsey sat in front of Chen Mo. The doctor in a white coat looked indifferent.

"Sarkaz needs a gentle monarch to soothe its wounds, because the people of Sarkarz can never experience a more serious disaster, but what is needed to solve the problem of Sarkarz is power and blood, both of which Refuting each other, when Theresia launched this war in her name and deprived the lords and cities of their rights and drove them away, he was no longer the Theresia who was admired and respected by Sarkaz in the past, but if In the way of Tresis, the Sakaz people will lose the last of their lands."

"So knowing this, I brought the Doctor to Kazdaele. I thought the Doctor would be the one to break this deadlock."

In front of the placed medical instruments, Kelsey's cold eyes reflected Chen Mo's figure.

"But the doctor can't do it. He can only maintain the current situation of the Tower of Babel. The Tower of Babel can only wait for Theresa's condition to get worse. We have made the worst plan. Theresa is doomed. He can live longer than Theresa, and he can wait, but Theresa cannot wait. Once he loses her, the Tower of Babel will face failure."

Chen Mo suddenly remembered the child named Amiya next to Theresia, and also remembered the reason why Kelsey left the Tower of Babel.

He wanted to speak out, but Kelsey stopped him.

"Don't ask, just listen to me."

Chen Mo didn't ask.

"...until you appeared." Kelsey looked at Chen Mo, as if inspecting: "Your unfounded theories have shaken Theresa's ideas, but they still can't make her change. It's your body that makes the decision, and you gave her a glimpse of possibility."

"The ideas and possibilities you brought are what made Theresia make her decision." Kelsey sighed: "I know her very well, otherwise even if I know that my condition can be alleviated or even cured, I can't. If the ideal is still out of reach, she will not allow herself to make the Sakaz people suffer more suffering. Because of this, Theresia is Theresia, the monarch who makes countless Sakaz yearn for her. .”

"So - I will not stop you from staying in Kazdale, no matter what you want to do when you stay." Kelsey said: "Kazdale or Theresa, she really needs someone to bear her sins. The doctor can't do it, because the Tower of Babel needs his wisdom, but you can. The ideas and values ​​you bring will allow you to do anything that conflicts with Theresia one day, Theresia. She will not give up on you, your ideas are built on her, but her ideas also exist because of you, which is something a doctor cannot do."

Kelsey's words paused.

She looked into Chen Mo's eyes quietly, and the room fell into a brief silence.

"I know exactly what my choice will bring, Ms. Kelsey, thank you very much for your willingness to tell me about your past."

Chen Mo interrupted the silence.

"If you want something, you have to pay. This is fair. Even for an outsider like me, I took advantage. Even one day, when this war is over, I will bear the responsibility for what I have done. The generation that deserves it.”

"I base everything on the Tower of Babel and His Highness."

"I never thought I would stay in Kazdale, Ms. Kelsey. Her Highness gave me the opportunity. She told me how to live."

Chen Mo smiled. The smile was so free and easy, as if he was relieved, as if he no longer had any worries.He has been thinking about Kelsey's opinion on what he has done, because Kelsey's importance to the Tower of Babel is self-evident. Without her approval, many things will be difficult to implement, but he now knows the answer.

Kelsey answered his doubts. Although she looked cold, she was actually not lacking in humanity and tenderness, so Chen Mo naturally had to give his answer to satisfy Kelsey.

"I am an outsider. I saw an opportunity in Kazdale. This opportunity requires me to pay and fight for it, so I am willing to do it. To put it crudely, even if it is just because of Theresia, because I know Theresa Thea will still remember what I did for her, and when I ask Kazdale for help, she won’t turn me away, and that’s enough.”

Chen Mo cannot become the second Traces, because both Kelsey and he know that everything about him is based on the Tower of Babel and Theresia. He is the same as the Doctor but also different from the Doctor.None of them are Sakaz.

The Doctor is just the brains of the Tower of Babel. He cannot lead the army, nor can he go further. He can let countless Sakaz die because of his orders, but Theresia can also take back his rights at any time.

Everything the doctor does is related to the reputation of the Tower of Babel and Theresia, but Chen Mo has nothing to do with the Tower of Babel. Even if his support comes from the Tower of Babel, no matter what he does in the future, it will be in name only. his own personal conduct.

Chen Mo cannot die. If he dies, Theresia's condition will lose the possibility of being cured. However, Chen Mo cannot continue to stay in the Tower of Babel, because compared to leaving him in the Tower of Babel, Theresia needs someone. The person who can bear the guilt for her, Chen Mo is by far the best choice.

His character, his identity, and her importance to Theresia were just like the doctor in the past. Only he, outside the Tower of Babel, could do something that Theresa resisted but could not refuse.

He is related to Theresia's present and her future.

Kelsey told Chen Mo clearly all the cause and effect, because she had been observing, she knew that Chen Mo would not refuse, and she knew how to communicate with people like Chen Mo, whether it was because of Theresia herself or his purpose.

Lonely minister, Chen Mo suddenly thought of this word.

But he liked the word.

One will not be valuable enough not to be abandoned by the king【++

It was like an exchange of interests mixed with conspiracy. Kelsey used Theresia's personality charm and Chen Mo's purpose, so that Chen Mo had to agree to this condition. Chen Mo also needed Kazdale and Theresia. And the support of the Tower of Babel requires the entire Kazdaele, so that he will not appear weak when he returns to Longmen.

Only after he gained enough rights in Kazdale did he have enough confidence and strength to discuss conditions with Longmen, and then he could pursue the life he really wanted and change his destiny.

As for Theresia, Theresia now naturally has no extra choice, because this is all for her ideals and the Sakaz people.

Everyone gets what they want.

All are happy.

But Chen Mo never thought that things in Longmen had changed, and there was no one waiting for him anywhere.

He cannot predict the future.

Chen Mo finally realized clearly how unfathomable Kelsey was. Even though she seemed to be just an indifferent doctor, her methods were still terrifying.

In fact, everything in this world cannot be summarized in simple words, because humans are complex creatures. Perhaps the reason why Chen Mo agreed to Kelxi’s choice was not only because of his purpose, but also because of his feelings for Theresia. Complex feelings, and Kelxi was not just because she saw possibilities in Chen Mo.

Whether it's conspiracy or coercion, benefits that can never be obtained for no reason in this world still cost two yuan to buy a lottery ticket.

"Finally, I have a message for you." Kelsey stood up and looked down at Chen Mo in front of her: "No matter what ideas and goals you have, they can only be realized if you are alive."

"……I got it."

Chapter 1: Give me the votes for counting, please mess with me

"Got to go?"

Outside the wide terrace of the Tower of Babel, the dim sunset was about to set in the distance at the end of the horizon, and the afternoon wind blew the corners of the doctor's coat.

His hands were in the pockets of his coat.

The shadow behind him was stretched by the setting sun.

Chen Mo stood next to him, his long hair standing up in the gentle evening breeze. He had grown a little taller than a year ago, and his face had become more mature, but it didn't look like he had just arrived in Babel. The coldness of the tower.

He integrated into this organization and gradually became less confused during the days he spent with His Highness.

"I may not have many opportunities to see you in the future. I thought I should come and see you." Chen Mo said, putting his hands on the railing: "It has been a year since I met you."

"One year and three months to be exact."

"Yeah, I almost forgot why I came to Kazdale." Chen Mo said, looking at the heavy knife at his waist: "I am a mercenary of Black Steel."

The doctor turned to look at him.

"It was my plan to leave Kazdaele temporarily. Is this why you came to me?"

"Your decision has made all my previous preparations useless."

"What did you think before?"

"Using Grai as the base, in the chaos of the war, and the Tower of Babel as the foundation, let Grai's people penetrate into every city and village under the Tower of Babel, penetrate into the entire Kazdaele, accumulate and lurk, The Tower of Babel is enough to provide them with early weapons and supplies. When the time is right, they will burst out with powerful power in every city, every village, and every factory." Chen Mo looked at the distant horizon, dimly The setting sun illuminated the young face, and the setting sun reflected into his black eyes, like sparks of light.

"They will unite under common ideals and pursuits, capture the municipal government, open up their arsenals, arm themselves, and become a torrent that will completely overwhelm Kazdaele's social structure and radiate throughout Kazdaele's territory." Chen Mo said, tilting his head. ask:

"……how?"

"It's a beautiful fantasy, but it's also very unrealistic." The doctor said: "The Sakaz people are not as tough as you think, and their minds are not that open. The lords have ruled them for hundreds of years, and this kind of thinking has long been ingrained. And, on top of that, Overlords and Mobile Cities make it incredibly difficult to implement your idea, leaving them with nowhere to run while the city has the power to stop them.”

"It's really not possible?"

"Yes, I have read your theory, if I have enough time."

"How long do you think it will take."

"At least two to three years, it can only be done in cities, cities with many workers. When your theory matures, it may really have a surprising effect in changing Kazdaele." The doctor said: " But Kazdaele and Babel cannot give you two or three years.”

Chen Mo turned his head.

"I know, that's why you are standing here now, not lying in the medical room of the Tower of Babel."

"..."

The conversation between them paused for several seconds. Chen Mo turned his head to look at the doctor and suddenly raised the corners of his mouth.

"Gray, here you go."

"it is good."

"Remember when I asked you last winter if there was any way to change the current situation of Kazdaele and Babel, do you think I can be that person?"

"You already have the answer in your mind, don't you?" the doctor asked. "What are the conditions Kelsey gave you?"

"She thought I might become the second Tracy," Chen Mo said, adding: "The original Tracy."

"...You have this potential."

"But I don't think so." Chen Mo said: "Actually, I never thought that one day I would reach this level. Kelsey has brought me a lot of doubts."

"Just do what you want." The doctor said, hesitating for a moment: "Kelsey has lived for many years after all, and it is normal to know many secrets from the past."

"Can we really do what we want to do instead of changing for various other reasons?" Chen Mo asked: "Just like you, Doctor, did you really choose to stay here because you wanted to?"

The doctor didn't answer.

Chen Mo didn't ask any further questions.

"I think I will go back to Longmen one day, but I won't go back alone. I'm not a good person, and I probably won't be able to be a good person in this life, so I will find the answer in my own way."

"The name you wrote in your diary... Tallulah?" The doctor hesitated and suddenly asked: "Askaron has checked the things you brought, for safety reasons."

Chen Mo looked at the doctor, waiting for his words.

"Compared to me, you actually already have what you want to pursue, whether it's an ideal or someone who relies on this ideal." The doctor said: "These are enough to support you to go on."

"It's not like you can say this."

"Compared with talking to you about the changes you may encounter now and in the future that have not yet happened, and telling you the reasons that we all know well, I think this is more convincing to you." The doctor said: "You You have no rights, no ambitions, or even far-fetched ambitions in your heart, but you are pursuing these things, so I can infer that your opponent requires you to have these before you can face it."

"You are right." Chen Mo said, he looked straight at the doctor: "So I am willing to be your pawn, let you push me to Grai, let you push me to become what you think I can be That person, maybe, Doctor, when you gave me that answer, I had already decided to do this."

"You reacted quickly," the doctor said. "When did you notice it?"

"Since the day I set foot in Grai City, maybe even earlier, since I received the report from Grai." Chen Mo shook his head: "Of all the coincidences in this world, I have happened to them all. , Su Enyang is yours."

"He is very smart. Among the people who joined the Tower of Babel, he is one of the few people who is not optimistic about Theresa's ideas." The doctor did not refute: "I have read your medical report, and from then on I can Guessing Kelsey's plan and the influence you may have, I selected Gray as the city that best fits your theories. The lord of that city is an extremely greedy and weak person, so I sent someone disguised as Sasha. The Kaz mercenaries cut off their communication with the outside world and attacked the convoys that provided supplies to the city."

"I'm afraid it's more than that..."

The doctor glanced at Chen Mo.

"After the turmoil in Grai, I dismissed some of the soldiers from the Tower of Babel and entered the Hearth disguised as workers displaced from the city. There were not many of them, but they all received the concept manual that Grai subsequently promoted."

"You want to try?"

"I won't let go of any possibility."

"Then, you should also be able to guess that after the Tower of Babel chooses to withdraw from Kazdale, I will lead Grai's garrison to leave the Tower of Babel and stay in Kazdale." Chen Mo said, and then asked: "Do you need me? do what?"

"Do you know the Pardoner?"

"not much."

"The Absolvers are loyal to Tresis, and their presence can be found in every corner of Kazdaele. Due to the ancient system and the prestige among Sarkaz, every city is in awe and fear of the Absolvers." The doctor said: "In the battle between Babel and Tresis, this agency put tremendous pressure on Babel's intelligence network."

"Sarkaz mercenaries are one of the sources of chaos throughout Kazdaele, but their whereabouts are unpredictable. They can rarely gather together, and they cannot all be eliminated. The current situation in the Tower of Babel is in the hands of Askaron. But it turns out that she can't fight against the Pardoner, so I need a brand new organization that doesn't belong to the Tower of Babel. I can take advantage of the opportunity when the Tower of Babel attracts Traisis's attention to integrate into Kazdaele's mercenaries. middle."

The doctor looked at Chen Mo.

"I need to know the information and movements of each Sakaz mercenary group. I need to know what Tresis ordered these mercenaries to do. I need an intelligence network that is hidden deep enough but strong enough to confront the Absolution Master. ." The doctor said: "I need someone who can lead these people. In the future, he can bring enough fear to the Sakaz cities, lords and many mercenary groups, but he cannot be a Sakaz and loyal to His people cannot be in awe of Sakaz’s strict ruling class, but you and your theory are very suitable, and your presence is enough to influence Theresia’s decision.”

The doctor looked away. The sunset in Kazdaele was about to go away, and the long night was about to come.

The moment before night falls, the sky dims and his shadow gradually blends into the night.
