Oracle of Terra

"Aren't you the team leader, what are you doing here?"

"Isn't it because I don't have anything to do on the bench? I can't cheer or anything. It's more embarrassing for me. It's more fun to brag with you here."

"Ha ha."

Tallulah rolled her eyes. To put it bluntly, this guy is just too idle to show his presence everywhere.

"Don't have such an attitude, this match actually exceeded my expectations."

"I always feel as if everything is in your expectation, right?"

Tallulah glanced at Tellez, after all, it seemed that nothing had happened to him so far, or that they all had the feeling that they would be solved by him as soon as they lived.

"Not necessarily, just like what I talked to you before, although there are many things I can change, but not everything can go smoothly, or you might not be born now."

"Oh, I remember it was written in some science fiction. It's called the Butterfly Effect?"

Tallulah usually likes to read some popular literature outside of the time when she is dealing with government affairs.

"I remember you used to love reading history, don't you?"

"I'm very interested in ancient history, but my ears are getting calloused from Mr. Raven and you. Most of them are the version of the heroic Sarkaz King killing Terra."

"That's actually true."

Although there are also parts that have been beautified by Telles and Raven, of course the general plot direction is no problem.

"But the history of those turbulent eras after you has disappeared in time. Although Mr. Lei Wen knows a lot, it is always fragmented."

"After all, it is not omniscient and omnipotent. Sarkaz's black crow is not versatile enough in some places. In the field rich in mysticism, it can't intervene. I specifically refer to some ancient tribes. After all, clones are still clones. In terms of information acquisition Although it is convenient, the power is not as good as the main body after all, and because of the relationship with the demon, Lei Wen's main body spends most of the time dormant, accumulating power, but because of my recovery recently, his contact with me is gradually recovering, and it can be very fast. The influence of those demons is largely ignored."

"Speaking of demons, what are these things? I have heard from Mr. Herag and Mr. Patriot that those things come from outside the realm of Terra and belong to unknown existences. What we can know is that these evil things can It erodes people's body and will, bringing power and destroying people at the same time, but Ursus has obtained the power to seal these evil spirits and use them."

"Inner guard, right? I have to say that this is a good approach, but considering the nature of those things from other worlds, it is still a bit too dangerous."

"An alien world?"

Hearing the new vocabulary, Tallulah became a little curious, after all, it is closely related to the land she lives in.

"It's just a rhetorical technique. In fact, I have only recently learned that there are also things outside the native land in Terra, or those things are native, but they have been dormant for a long time."

"What do you mean?"

"Remember what I told about the last defeat in my legend?"

"Oh, that, the damn tentacle monster made you clone during the decisive battle, causing your body to be torn apart and then sealed?"

To be honest, Tallulah is also very curious about what Telles's body looks like now. I heard him describe that an arm is as big as a transport bus.

"That, that aquatic product in the sea, I thought it was my kind, but from what the Black Dragon guy learned, it doesn't seem to be in the same way as us origin stone super life forms."

"In other words, in fact, the hidden dangers of this land are more unknown?"

"Almost the same thing. Those creatures from the abyss will erode the human body, transform them into their own kind, and even make those who have resistance gradually become insane. Does it sound similar to demons?"

"You mean they're the same kind of thing?"

"I don't know about this. My research on demons is just a study of their power transformation and military use. Regarding their source, the scholars under my command have not given specific conclusions, so I call it It is a thing from another world, because that thing does not conform to the existence of our current world, and the energy form does not conform to some laws, although many abilities of super life forms like us also violate the so-called scientific laws.”

".........................."

The young duke fell silent. Although he heard many ancient secrets from Telles, they really existed around him, or existed in the present, rather than the legends, which were about the abyss and demons.

"But I thought about it, those things should have existed for thousands of years, right?"

"Yes, since my time, they have been entrenched as shadows under the light of this land, intertwined and intertwined."

"But people still resist and fight against them, to this day."

"That's right, this is exactly what is so precious about the Son of Man, and it's also what I admire most about human beings."

Listening to Telles' words, Tallulah couldn't help but feel at ease. The stories of the patriots who fought against the demons once told vividly before her eyes, and the heroic and iron-blooded war songs seemed to echo in her ears.

"Then we will continue to fight in the future, expel them from their homes, and let our land expand to unknown boundaries and worlds."

"This is the momentum, my outstanding heir miss."

"But your big plan all along seems to be for this?"

Tallulah has long been used to the name of the heir, although she didn't understand what she inherited from Telles in the end, the dragon's back sword?No, are those things from her ancestors, those combat skills and knowledge, or are they ancient legends?

Tallulah was a little confused, but she didn't reject it. After all, the words of this incomprehensible guy were very sincere, and he was indeed looking forward to tomorrow's arrival.

"What are you two talking about?"

Yelena probably came to an end while watching the game, so she went back to the inner seat. The VIP room belonging to Ursus didn't have too many people coming today, and more people stayed in the Red Pine Knights to watch the broadcast. Lula wanted the children to come to the scene to feel the atmosphere, but Alina, considering the possibility of a rape incident and the possible danger, chose to take the children to stay with the Red Pine Forest Knights, anyway Watching training on weekdays can also broaden the horizons of these children.

"Talking about demons and the abyss."

"Oh."

Yelena, the demon, has heard many stories from her old father. When he tells these stories, he always uses a tone of reminiscence and a little sadness.

Although such a big and sentimental person will always make people feel strange, but Yelena also knows that her father is much more delicate than that rough appearance. When she was a child, he used those big hands to help her make some small dolls, although the finished products were a bit horrible. , but that is still the treasure of the snow monster princess.

"The reaction is really flat, Yelena."

"Anyway, they are enemies to be dealt with later, and I have actually seen those things after the civil war."

"???"

Tallulah showed a puzzled expression, why didn't she know about this.

"My dad took me and the snow monsters to the defense line of the northern border. Going there to receive and rectify the weaving of the border also gained some knowledge, but it's still a bit less interesting than the emperor's inner guard."

"I felt abandoned."

Tallulah had mixed feelings, and she was actually quite curious about what those demons looked like.

"That's because you haven't seen advanced varieties, but considering the changes of the times, there should not be many advanced varieties in the current era."

"Advanced breed?"

Yelena's curiosity was aroused by Telles' words. In her memory, although the defense battle she participated in when she went to the northern border to take over the defense was difficult, it was much easier than the flesh and blood monsters she had to deal with when liberating Sochi. Although those demons give people a strange feeling, they are not that scary.

"Well, at that time, the high-level variety was as big as a small hill, capable of spiritual pollution and extremely destructive spells. You can understand it as a mobile fortress, full of that kind of city defense guns."

"That's really... a bit exaggerated."

Yelena's eyes twitched after a little imagining and comparing it with the demons she had come into contact with.

"It's okay, if you're interested, I can go to [Shupnos] to recreate it for you to see, the ancient battlefield and the realization of some monsters that look like aliens."

"It's okay, anyway, it's better to use it for training, but Telles, I'm curious why the defense line in the north is not as difficult as I imagined. To be honest, I have only seen such things as demons. Loose groups, small groups, the kind without much pressure."

"Because the dangerous ones were taken by the inner guards as materials."

Tallulah did know some inside information, but because of the confidentiality agreement from the inner guard, she can only tell people she thinks she can tell. The reason why she can learn about these things is probably because Kosche is dead. Tallulah Atrias, the most powerful noble in the country and the most expected to continue to protect the country, learned about this from the chief of the inner guard.

Of course, maybe it was the inner guard who was moved by the heartfelt words of the young girl duke?

"I see."

No one knows where the demons come from, but they only know that they are constantly flowing outside the borders of civilization. Although there was an idea to eradicate them, Ursus also took action, but the result was that most of the legion They were destroyed, and very few people survived, including Yelena's old father, that old Wendigo still couldn't forget the result of the expedition in the north.

"So Telles, do you know if there is any source for those demons?"

"I remember I said it."

"Have it?"

"Well, it's okay to talk about it anyway. In fact, I don't know the source. After all, I haven't explored areas other than civilization. At that time, I had to deal with things like war, and I left the research to my subordinates. , but I caught most of the demons from the ground.”

Then most of it was fed to his own apostle, his own family, Raven.

"Underground, I remember that the underground is not the domain of the Durins?"

"Huh? I remember the current area of ​​Rem Billiton. There used to be a lot of demons, but the north side."

At that time, Bechymos kicked a lot.

Telles is becoming more and more curious about other places on this planet. After all, the Pope said that satellites can no longer observe the surface of this planet correctly, and the natural disaster clouds that form everywhere from time to time interfere with space monitoring. Accuracy, even though the Pope does not have permission to use the Uranus weather satellite.

"It was so cold in the north that I didn't think about exploring at the time."

"It's not that I can't understand your thoughts."

Tallulah recalled the situation in the snow field. The living environment was indeed harsh. There were very few crops suitable for the land, and the weather was freezing. He couldn't help admiring the first emperor who opened up the land and territory for the Ursus people. .

"Did the two of you become a little soft after staying away from the snow field?"

"After all, Tallulah is a betrayer of the aristocratic class. As her loyal dog, I must have been unable to leave my comfort zone."

"You're talking like I've never been able to get out of my comfort zone."

In order to get rid of Kosche's control, Talula, who did not hesitate to turn herself into an infected person, gave Telles a blank look, but one thing to say, there is really no need to go to the snowfield except for development and mining, and Ursas The factories and research institutes in China have already begun to study drones for mine operations in this regard. After all, Telles, Terra's AI technology, is still full of praise.

"Okay, I won't talk to you about this anymore, anyway, the game is almost over."

"Oh, the jokes are almost over."

Telles looked at the final situation on the field. What was different from before was that under the final situation this time, what was left behind was W who looked a bit embarrassed, and Margaret Linguang who didn't look very good. .

If it wasn't unexpected, it was indeed not unexpected, but with this combination, Telles didn't think his good apprentice had any chance of winning.

Even if her command ability is good, the range is not bad, and the close combat is also excellent, but Margaret, who is also a hexagonal fighter, is inferior to her in command, and can be said to crush W in all aspects.

However, because the fields are different, the gap in this aspect doesn't really matter. After all, W is more suitable to be a commander, and Margaret is more suitable to be a vanguard captain who charges into battle.

But if the vanguard captain and the commander are to fight each other, then the result must be...

"Winner! It's the place where the champion Yao Knight is - the red pine forest!"

The victory of the frontrunner, taking the head of the general among the thousands of troops, is what a person like her should do.

"Tsk, damn it."

Because he lost in a head-to-head duel, and the strength gap, so W can't say much, but generally speaking, he is still annoying.

If there were more people, she would be able to slowly form an army to win the championship, but if she was counted among the six people, it would be really troublesome.

568. Insignificant concern

After the game, Telles looked at the impetuous W. Although he was not the kind of person who couldn't afford to lose as a good apprentice, after all, no one likes to lose when things like this happen to him. type outside.

"How does it feel?"

"I hate being understaffed."

"Did you forget that you started out as a small team of mercenaries?"

"Old Antique, that and this are two different things, or do you really think I'm angry because of this?"

"Of course not. In the past, when you were in the Kazdale area, most of your battles were against your compatriots and the Sakotas. Now it has widened. I still remember you bringing those hired soldiers from Bolivar." The situation of the soldiers attacking the city."

"Those idiots."

Speaking of this, W was a little angry. Those guys couldn't even figure out how to face the enemy, which added a lot of personnel losses for nothing, but after handing them over to the old patriot for drills, she wasn't worried. Too many, after all, the Sarkaz people are the weak and the strong, among other things, just with the majestic appearance of the old man, just standing there can make those fools shut up and train obediently.

"Well, it can be seen that you have a lot of resentment towards those people, but they still gave us a lot of help in terms of reinforcement."

"Well, even if you're a little stupid, you still have combat power."

Telles is very grateful that most Sarkaz people are born strong, maybe this is also thanks to his blessing?

"So the game is over, are you here to deliberately get people mentality?"

"Isn't it because you are afraid that you will get angry and plan to quench your anger?"

"Behave."

"no problem."

Telles felt a pity and withdrew his hand. To be honest, although he didn't think about it recently, people are creatures that can't learn, even if they are no longer human.

"Didn't you say that you have no interest in this area recently?"

"I didn't have any interest at first, but I was aroused by someone."

"Or is it my fault?"

"It doesn't mean that."

Telles smiled, looking at W a little uncomfortable.
