Blood of Mercury

The sun has risen for a long time, but still can not feel the warmth.

Too mild sunlight has no chance of melting the snow at all. The sky outside the window was still white, like a snow field spreading from the horizon to the sky.

It was not until nine o'clock in the morning that everyone gathered at the table to prepare to eat.

Because basically every kitchen will always have broth, so basically everyone in Fararu will only eat two meals, when the sun rises, when the room is fully illuminated, and when the sun sets.

Some hunters go out to hunt in the wee hours of the morning when the monsters are most active, and some hunters go out to hunt in the noon hours when the monsters are at their weakest and lazy. Basically, if they can make a smooth return, it will be just in time for this meal.

Being able to eat on time is actually a fortunate thing in the mountain people's concept.

Even an old hunter with decades of experience would not dare to say that he knows the habits of all monsters. Even in Sodom, a small mountain town with only a few hundred people in total, someone must die every month while hunting.

Death is so close to daily life here that the mountain people do not have too much fear of death.

After letting his wife go to each room to notify the guests to come for dinner, Contin sat down a little at a very slow pace. His lips were pursed tightly, the muscles on his face were tensed, and his eyes were full of thoughts.

It was about the end of the prayer. At this time, Roland pushed the door and came out of his room. While walking down the stairs slowly, he raised his hand to straighten his messy hair.

"Morning, Contin."

"...You too, Bishop Roland."

Sound seems wrong?

Roland raised his head in confusion, but just saw Kang Ding's livid face.

"What's the matter, Contin?"

Roland walked down the stairs quickly and asked with concern.

Contin just shook his head.

His voice was full of depression: "The city owner didn't find someone to remove the burning wood...not a single piece."

Having said that, he stopped abruptly and stopped talking.

But what he meant was very clear - under such a cold winter. No one had it easy. From the time when the temperature drops to the point where the basement can store meat, to the eve of the snow season until the monsters disappear, in just a few days, even the best hunter cannot store enough food for many people to spend the winter.

It's fine if you bring a firewood. Although compared to your burning wood, you can store it much better. But for a variety of reasons, it is not impossible for the fuel wood to be consumed early. It would be more or less convenient for the baker's family of three to take the burning wood to look for a sleeper.

To have compassion for them means that their family members will die due to lack of food - in this case, no one will accept the three people without any reason and live in their own home empty-handed. Not even if these three are neighbors.

And now. The baker's family was taken out by the city lord, and the person who agreed to move the three logs has also disappeared...

At this point, no matter how stupid Contin is, he knows how those three people are being treated now.

If nothing else, I'm afraid they have abandoned their corpses in the wilderness by now... That child may still be adopted, but that glib little brother and the fat lady he raised basically have no chance of living. .

Roland also sighed softly.

However, Roland was not sighing for those two people he never knew.

He was sighing for Contin's kindness.

Roland is not the kind of person who hates kindness and justice. Rather, Roland admired and yearned for that spirit.

It's like the kind of vision a person in a wheelchair has for a track and field athlete. Roland didn't have this part of the talent from the start.

With the resurrection from the dead, Roland's memory became more and more complete.

Roland began to realize who he was. Since then, the blind resentment against the world because of the disappearance of her sister has gradually cooled down.

Think back now. At the beginning, when he was still in a lock, Roland's hatred of the good had no reason at all. It's as stupid as hating all the dogs in the world after a child's toy is bitten by a dog.

Even in order to save the world, Roland must never take killing for granted. That is the ultimate fear of destroying other people's lives, the limit of evil that can be done in a person. To put it badly, Roland has become the kind of person he once hated the most.

If it is said that Roland has really established an armed force of his own, he will rush to the forefront when the earth collapses, the sky cracks, the sea turns into blood, and the smell of sulfur and scorched earth fills every corner of the world. . Repelling all the demons and dusk will never erase the blood on Roland's hands along the way.

Gong is gong, and passing is passing. Even if Roland is a saint who guides people to rebuild their beliefs, and a hero who fights against demonic aggression. Nor can anyone ignore the fact that Roland is also an executioner with **** hands.

If all goes well, Twilight is repelled, the world order is rebuilt, everything is prosperous, and even people can finally escape from the sanctuary of Farnes and find a new planet. That's what happened after Roland rested.

Roland was not surprised. After he rested in peace, even after a thousand years, there would definitely be scholars of later generations who would denounce Roland's tyranny and cruelty.

Some people are born wanting to watch the world burn. But Roland was not that kind of person.

And Roland also had a deeper understanding of his mission.

It's not enough to simply restore the world to its millennia-old glory. If Roland can only achieve this level, the entire Faens world is equivalent to stagnant for a whole thousand years - Roland must do better than this.

Before Farnes was born, the world was long gone. After the destruction of his own world, the true **** Orm established Farns with the legacy of his world. This spherical shelter is like an egg placed in a boiling soup. Except for Farnes, there is nothing in the whole world but dusk.

In fact, before the official reveal of Faens' worldview, some players had already guessed part of it.

After all, in the Astral language, the symbol "Farnes" means both "refuge", "greenhouse" and "Petri dish". If it is not simply the same name, this has already explained the meaning of the existence of the Farns world.

It is not enough for Roland to restore the present Ya'an Hundred Species to their glory a thousand years ago. That's just a symptom.

The meaning of Faens' existence is to inherit the world that has been destroyed again. Until the abilities of the creatures inside Farnes have developed to the natural discovery that Farnes is a closed and limited space, until the beings inside Farnes realize the danger of dusk and find enough to escape from this already twilight. the way to destroy the world.

The glory of a thousand years ago can only show that people are walking on the right path. From a harsh point of view, the people of a thousand years ago were not as advanced as the people of today - at least the Starcallers have discovered the truth of the world of Farns. And this is a progress that cannot be ignored, which is equivalent to opening a new era.

If Roland can solve all the hidden dangers of Faens and guide people back to the only way of life, then the brilliance will naturally reappear; on the other hand, if Roland does not solve the hidden dangers and hidden dangers of Faens world loopholes, then even if he reproduces that glory, the world will repeat the same mistakes after his death.

Before Roland just wanted to survive the Twilight Invasion, and then re-improve the world with religion, but now Roland finally realized that he was still too young.

Not to mention the possibility of his own unification of the world, from the beginning he regarded the coming of dusk as an inevitable event, which has already demonstrated Roland's narrow vision.

Reborn ten years ago, Roland could completely prevent the possibility of dusk coming. There are only two major loopholes in the Farns world. If you kill N'Zoth, who will degenerate into dusk in the future, and kill all the cultists who believe in Higgs, you will not be able to find the Farns world at dusk. where exactly.

This is undoubtedly a much heavier burden than before. But Roland had to back it up.

But ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Even though he was so deeply aware that he was on the wrong side, Roland had to take the wrong path.

Just like what Roland said before the execution. Roland didn't want to save the world... but had to save the world.

Because he is Roland. The elector of the mentor and the pope, the master of Elucado, the younger brother of the Queen of Silver, and the future king of Elcatel... But Roland wants to save the world, and these people only account for half of the reason. That's it.

More reasons, simply because Roland wants to save the world.

Just like Contin and little Lim sitting in front of him.

Roland loves these lovely people. Roland would be sad if they died. Even for his own happiness, Roland must save the world.

If I had to describe it...

"I'm probably just a savior out of interest."

Roland said softly in a voice that only he could hear. (To be continued.)
