king.

"Marshal, the situation is not good. The coverage of the seal is very wide, in addition to the ruins, it has also extended to the outside world.

Judging from our investigation, the seal is not actually damaged, but the energy-gathering magic circle that maintains the seal's operation has been damaged to a certain extent.

Fortunately, the combination of multiple magic arrays was adopted, and damage to a single seat array would not affect the operation of other magic arrays.

The essence of the subsidence of the underground palace is insufficient energy supply, and the priority was chosen to ensure the operation of the seal.

If I'm not mistaken, the Blasted Lands were never cursed.What caused the local tribe to have an accident was actually the eruption of the backlog of energy in the sealed land. "

After listening to Rob's speculation, Hudson's face was very ugly.According to this statement, the cursed land has become an unsolvable problem.

Although it is difficult to accept in my heart, this is already the most reasonable explanation.

If it was easy to solve, the orcs would have solved it long ago, and there would not be so many tribes killed.

"Do your best, listen to the destiny!
Judging from the information collected, the seal under the ruins is likely to be the entrance to another world.

Maybe the calamity of ten thousand years started from here.

Before there is no definite answer, the seal must not be opened! "

Hudson said helplessly.

Thinking about it makes me depressed, there is such a big thunder in front of my own territory.Fortunately, it was discovered now, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

First, it guarded the frontier for the human race to prevent the invasion of the orcs, and now there is a potential other world, a proper patron saint of the human race.

It's just that such a title is not what Hudson wants.If possible, he would prefer peace in the world.

Times are different.

Hudson has long been successful and has accumulated a rich foundation, what is needed now is to defend the country.

As a person with vested interests, he inherently hates troubled times.

Deep down in his heart, Hudson had already secretly prayed that this passage should not be the only one.

It's not that he wants to pull people back, it's because his ability is limited, and he can't bear the calamity of ten thousand years alone.

With the current situation in the mainland, it is impossible for all ethnic groups to unite as one.

Even if everyone is convinced of the existence of the Ten Thousand Years Calamity, it is estimated that the first thought of the various races is not to be able to survive the crisis together, but to think about how to pull the human race from the position of the overlord of the mainland.

"Marshal, there is no need to worry too much. Judging from the age of the seal, it must have exceeded 1 years.

The writing used to record messages is the oldest known writing at present, at least tens of thousands of years old.

If the Ten Thousand Years Tribulation broke out from here, the seal would have been destroyed long ago, and it would be impossible to continue until now.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that there are multiple sources of the Ten Thousand Years Calamity, which erupt in turn. "

Wizard Niemeyer's low EQ comfort left Hudson speechless.

If you don't worry, you will have ghosts, and you will bet on the odds with the family fortune that you have accumulated so much.If you win, you get nothing, if you lose, you just lie on the board, no matter how you look at it, it is a blood loss.

In line with the principle of "being happy alone is worse than being happy with others", Hudson resolutely chose to share "happiness".

After hiding the sensitive content, the news about the Ten Thousand Years Calamity was disseminated immediately.

……

In the Emerald Palace, Caesar IV, who received the news, was completely dumbfounded.

He just had a few days of comfortable life, and then something happened again, so he was not prepared to let him sleep well for a few days.

He had heard rumors of "Ten Thousand Years Calamity" since he was a child, but most of them were in the form of fairy tales.

Prior to this, there was no evidence that this was true.

Because there are too many versions circulating, there are a lot of artistic processing elements in the middle.Every now and then, landslides and ground cracks, mountains and seas are moved, and the rumors have long been untrue.

In order to clarify this matter, Caesar IV in the crown prince era once sent someone to investigate out of curiosity.

The source did not disappoint. The word "Ten Thousand Years Calamity" first appeared in a mythical novel.

His childhood dream was shattered, and now someone actually told him that the ten thousand years of calamity recorded in myths and novels really existed.

Looking at the series of signatures below the memorial, Caesar IV gave up the idea of ​​sharply reprimanding him.

No matter how bizarre, with so many signatures, the trust level has also increased.

Looking at the stunned ministers, Caesar IV said impatiently: "Don't be dumbfounded, just say what you think!"

After all, he is a young man, and Caesar IV is far better than these ministers when it comes to accepting new affairs.

"Your Majesty, this matter is too involved, you have to give us time to slow down!"

Marquis Delgado said with a wry smile.

As chancellor of the kingdom, he has always been the most pragmatic.These fairy tales have never been dismissed.

If Hudson and Robert hadn't appeared in the signature on the memorandum, he would have thought it was a prank.

"What's the fuss? It's not the first time news of the Ten Thousand Years Tribulation has appeared, it's just that this time we found documentary evidence of the existence of the Tribulation.

Be calm, the sky hasn't fallen yet.

Thousands of years ago, my human race was still a small and inconspicuous race.The ancestors faltered, but they were able to cut through the thorns all the way to today.

Now they have all become the overlords of the mainland, and their strength is far better than a hundred times what they were back then.Even if you encounter a crisis, you can get through it safely if you think about it! "

Caesar IV pretended to be calm and said.

The seemingly meaningless pretentiousness is actually a sign of a monarch becoming mature.

"Don't be surprised by changes" when things happen, but it is a bonus item for the monarch.No matter how bad your heart is, as a king, you must be calm on the face.

It's just a small problem to step on the minister's position.There is already a status as a monarch and minister, so it doesn't matter if it is a ladder.

"Your Majesty, we still have too little information about the Ten Thousand Years Calamity.

Simply report the news to the Race Alliance. There are so many ancient forces in the Southern Continent, so they should know more.

Let's piece together the information, even if we can't restore the truth ten thousand years ago, it's better than worrying about it alone! "

The proposal of the Minister of Military Affairs, Archduke Efiero, quickly gained everyone's unanimous approval.

Not knowing how to solve it, I simply pulled the Human Race Alliance to face it together.

It is naturally best to restore the historical truth and resolve the crisis.If you can't find a solution, you can also have a group of unlucky people to accompany you to worry.

"Then activate the magic circle of communication, so that everyone can receive this good news as soon as possible.

By the way, one more note: A new round of Ten Thousand Years Calamity is about to erupt, so they don't care about it! "

Caesar IV said with a smile.

He naturally doesn't know when the Ten Thousand Years Calamity will break out, but it doesn't affect its use to fool people.

Compared with the unit of measurement of ten thousand years, "is about to explode" is actually very broad.

It’s almost there in a few days, it’s almost in a few years, and it can still be said in a few hundred years.

Bold predictions are enough, and you don't have to be responsible anyway.

If it happened in his lifetime, he had the foresight; if it didn't happen, it would be blood money.

Such a broad timetable, even if it is found to be fabricated, it will be hundreds of years later.

The ministers did not stop it, apparently they had the same opinion as Caesar IV: the catastrophe of ten thousand years is indeed a threat, but no one knows when it will break out.

Due to the lack of sufficient information, we don't even know the exact time of the last catastrophe.

If you're not sure, just look at luck.Worry is necessary, but anxiety is unnecessary.If you can't meet them in your lifetime, wouldn't you be torturing yourself?
……

On the top of the holy mountain, Pius VII smiled disdainfully at the rumors from the Alpha Kingdom.

"It seems that the nature of Alpha people can't be changed. Just harvesting some documents and materials can make such a fuss!"

"Ten thousand years of calamity", this is the old calendar.One thing is repeatedly mentioned around me, but I have never experienced it personally. After a long time, everyone will become numb.

Even if it is real, it is a thing of the past. Who can guarantee that it will continue in the future?

Even if it will continue, as long as it doesn't happen in one's lifetime, that's enough.

It doesn't make sense to think ahead when you're not sure when something will happen.If you have the spare time to worry about this, you might as well continue to implement your own strategy.

"Your Majesty, the crisis awareness of the Alpha people is well known across the continent.

However, their findings are worthy of attention.Now that they were able to find the ancient ruins in the orc prairie, we can also strengthen the search in the controlled area.

If we can figure out the ins and outs of the Ten Thousand Years Calamity, we can also reassure the hearts of the people and enhance our reputation on the mainland. "

Blake suggested.

Ten years ago, he would never have proposed such a meaningless plan, but the times are different now.

The speed of the decline of the Holy See is already visible to the naked eye.If they don't do anything, I'm afraid the foundation of the Holy See will be buried in the hands of their generation.

Even if it is a political show, the Holy See must do it now.To figure out the ins and outs of the Ten Thousand Years Calamity, at least in publicity, you can boast that you have made a contribution to the safety of the human race.

Compared with the risk of stepping forward and turning the tide in times of crisis, the effort of searching for the ruins is really not worth mentioning.

"Blake, your thinking is too simple. If the Ten Thousand Years Calamity was easy to figure out, the ancestors would have solved it long ago.

In fact, at the peak of the Holy See, it sent people to investigate.It's a pity that the mainland is about to be turned over, but I still haven't been able to find what I want.

Judging from the investigation, it seems that someone deliberately erased this period of history, not wanting future generations to know the truth.

Ten thousand years ago, the overlord of the mainland was the orcs, and our human race is just an ordinary small clan in the continent of Aslante, and the rise is something after the catastrophe.

If the big families at that time wanted to erase this period of history, the ancestors would be powerless to stop it.Even for the continuation of the race, they have to actively cooperate.

In fact, among the materials held by the Holy See, there is also information about the Ten Thousand Years Calamity.It's just that the ancestors who secretly recorded these messages didn't know much about them, and only mentioned a few words in a vague way.

The ancestors actually didn't know the truth about the Ten Thousand Years Tribulation.From the beginning to the end, they participated passively, and then ended in a daze.

In order to avoid causing panic, the Pope at the time ordered to block the news, so in the eyes of the outside world, the Ten Thousand Years Calamity has always been a myth!
The matter has not ended here, and we also wiped out several alien races in the follow-up, trying to find the truth from it, but unfortunately they don't know much.

At present, on the mainland, the only people who might know the truth are the elves and the dragons who fled overseas! "

After listening to Pius VII's explanation, everyone was dumbfounded.After doing it for a long time, the existence of the Ten Thousand Years Calamity is not a secret at all.

Now that the Holy See knows about it, it is also possible that some great powers in the Southern Continent know about it as well.

Those who are really kept in the dark are probably only the new countries that have risen in the past few hundred years.What the Alpha Kingdom is doing now is just piercing through this layer of window paper.

"Your Majesty, the Alpha people say that the catastrophe of ten thousand years is just around the corner, could it be that they have made new discoveries?
Although I don't know what the catastrophe is, the decline of the previous continental hegemons almost all started with the catastrophe, and it deserves our attention! "

The head of the Gulei Army on the side spoke.

Things like reason need prerequisites.Before the decline of the Holy See, everyone was busy fighting for power and various internal struggles.

Now being forced by external forces, Pius VII can no longer care about the political balance, and the factions are too lazy to continue the show.

When it comes to interests, how to fight, or how to fight, but on the premise that their own interests are not involved, the factions have stopped dragging each other's legs.

Whether the decline of the Holy See can be reversed, no one knows, but they have already begun to save themselves.

This is almost the instinctive reaction of the ruler. No matter how decadent the regime is, some people will take measures to try to turn the tide at the critical moment of life and death.

"This is indeed a trouble, but the authenticity of this matter is still open to question.

Send people to keep an eye on the Alpha Kingdom. If they expand their armies wildly and prepare for war, and they don't use troops against the orcs, it will prove that the news is true, and we will follow up immediately! "

Pius VII said after thinking about it.

A perfect solution with almost no flaws to be found.Obviously, Pius VII, who has been in charge of the Holy See for many years, is still qualified in terms of strategy.

……

Similar scenes are constantly being staged in major forces.Caesar IV's prank only frightened many small and medium powers, and the top powers of the human race still performed very stably.

This kind of stability is not only due to the asymmetry in the news, but also the self-confidence in strength.

The orcs, the overlords of the mainland in the past, gradually declined after the catastrophe. The current strength of the human race is no worse than they were back then.

Because of the single race, in terms of the comprehensive strength of the race, it is actually a bit stronger.

All of them are now focusing on the Alpha Kingdom, and the international situation is slowly changing.

Kingdom of Avalarat.

With the death of the old king, Elton VIII, who was in his early forties, ascended the throne with the support of a group of nobles.

Different from his father's peace and prosperity, the young and promising Crown Prince Elton has always been regarded by all parties in the country as the hope of the kingdom.

Elton VIII did not disappoint everyone either. He appointed reformist leader Duke Grenavan as prime minister just as he ascended the throne, opening the road to reform in the kingdom.

There is no doubt that any reform needs to pay a price, and the Kingdom of Avalat is no exception.

But this is a matter of the future, and the nobles of the Kingdom of Avalat still have high hopes for this reform.

As a vested interest group, no one wants the kingdom to be stronger than them.Especially when the neighbors are getting stronger and stronger, but the family is stable and retreating.

"Reform to seek strength" has won the support of nobles from all sides.Including the conservative nobles, they also hope that the kingdom can pass reforms to reverse the declining decadence.

"Your Majesty, the opportunity is here!"

Duke Grenavan said enthusiastically.

For politicians, it doesn't really matter whether the news is true or not, what matters is whether it is necessary.

Undoubtedly, the "news that the Ten Thousand Years Calamity is about to break out" is a good medicine for the reformers.

The more class-solidified the world is, the more difficult it is to reform.Even if all parties want the kingdom to become stronger, once their own interests are affected, supporters can become opponents.

As the leader of the reformists, Duke Grenavan sorted out all the situations in the kingdom, but he couldn't find an entry point suitable for starting the road of reform.

Originally, he was going to make excuses and forcefully promote reforms, but he didn't expect that at the critical moment, the Alpha people sent them stepping stones.

Needless to say, it must be true that the Ten Thousand Years Calamity is about to erupt.Only when the news is true can the reformers be able to obtain the title of "Dayi".

"Then try it!
But Your Excellency the Duke, if you take this step, the kingdom will have no way out.

Now there are only the truly powerful countries on the mainland: the Kingdom of Frank, the Kingdom of Libya, and the Kingdom of Alpha.

The Three Kingdoms also represent three political models. If the kingdom wants to reform successfully, the experience of the three of them has to be used for reference.

At present, the three countries of the Central Mainland and the Principality of Moxi are imitating the Alpha Kingdom politically and militarily. The specific results are not known, but the prestige of the Five Nations Alliance has been achieved. "

It can be seen that in terms of the choice of political system, Elton VIII is still more inclined to the Alpha model.There is no other reason, it is entirely because of quick military results.

According to the line of the Kingdom of Frank and the Kingdom of Iberia, it will take many years for the Kingdom of Avalat to become stronger.

But if they choose to take the route of the Alpha Kingdom, it only takes a few years to pull up a large-scale army with a certain combat effectiveness.

I can't guarantee anything else, at least it can calm the prying heart of the neighbors.

In the past few years, after a series of wars, the evaluation of the combat effectiveness of the Alpha Kingdom's army by the countries of the mainland has risen again and again.

Even if the economic strength is holding back, it is still firmly seated in the third kingdom of the mainland.Especially now that he has four allies, his prestige is even higher.

"Your Majesty, I suggest that after the prelude to the reforms be kicked off, a delegation should be sent to study and study in the three countries.

After we have figured out the political system model of the Three Kingdoms, we will choose a path that is most suitable for us in combination with the actual situation of the kingdom. "

Duke Grenavan said rather anxiously.

The choice of political system is not only a choice of route, but also involves the interests of all parties.
