I've run out of money to protect Arad

Chapter 402 The King and the Jackal

I have run out of money to protect Arad.

Although this sentence sounds like a joke, and it is a bit clichéd, but.

For Duan Chao and many other warriors, this is an unbreakable truth.

Hearing Sha Lan say this at this moment, Duan Chao felt a little emotional for a while.

Thinking about it carefully, if it wasn't for this sentence, he wouldn't be where he is today.

Probably at this time, he is still staying on Earth to have sex with the young master of the Xiao family, right?

No, no, even if he didn't come to the Arad continent, he wouldn't be so depraved that he would have sex with Xiao Lin. After all, the spiritual energy revived, the foreign world eroded and the foreign species invaded.

In other words, if he hadn't said this sentence on the forum at that time, then the progress of the story now should be in the end of the world rather than the heavens.

However, for some reason, driven by the power of the universe, let's forget about the end of the world.

Just continue the flow of the heavens with the Arad continent as the core.

"Of course it's true." Duan Chao also stared at Shalan, and said in a serious tone that was different from usual, "But when that day really comes, I don't think I need to protect Arad..."

"adventurer……"

Shalan was about to speak, but Duan Chao interrupted her with a wave of his hand, "Needless to say, that's another story, what about the others?"

Hearing Duan Chao ask about this, Sha Lan rolled her eyes angrily, "You still have the nerve to say it? They struggled so hard last night, how can they get up now? Don't you know how to restrain yourself a little?"

"Isn't it your fault?"

"What does it have to do with me?"

Sha Lan was bewildered, while Duan Chao took it for granted, "If you join, won't they be liberated?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Sha Lan gave Duan Chao a hard look, then turned and left, ignoring him.

……

The Delos Empire is the country with the largest land area, the strongest military power and comprehensive national strength on the continent of Arad.

Its current emperor is Isabella, the third princess of the former empire, and the current queen of the empire.

Even though the empire is now thriving under Isabella's governance, just 8 years ago, the empire was still in dire straits.

Speaking of the history of the Delos Empire, we must first start with its predecessor, the Perus Empire.

The Perus Empire, the predecessor of the Delos Empire, like the current Delos Empire, has the strongest military strength on the entire continent.

Especially during the period when the general Kazan and the supreme magician Obama, ah bah, Ozma was assisted together, and it became the only country on the Arad continent that unified the entire continent so far.

If the Perus Empire can continue, there may be nothing like the Delos Empire, the Principality of Belmar, the Void Motherland, and the Dark Elf Kingdom today.

It is a pity that, as the saying goes, if the world is united for a long time, it will be divided, and if it is divided for a long time, it will be united.

The strongest fortresses are often breached from within.

The Peruvian Empire is no exception.

Not long after Kazan and Ozma successfully expelled the dragon Hess, the mentally retarded emperor of the Perus Empire destroyed the Great Wall himself, and both of them were framed and imprisoned.

Kazan was exiled to the Slut Mountains after being cut off his tendon, and Ozma disappeared suddenly during the escort.

In fact, this mentally handicapped act of the emperor of the empire mainly comes from a story of "the king and the jackal".

When the Perus Empire unified the continent of Arad, the people here were content and lived a happy and stable life.

Suddenly one day, the bard Alice came to this continent.

As directed by the prophecy, she begins to approach the Emperor of the Empire.

With her strength, she easily became a distinguished guest of the empire.

Later, Alice told a story to the emperor, a story called "The King and the Jackal":

"This is the ballad of the two wolves who defeated the monster, and this song will always resound on the throne, and the kingdom of the old lion will eventually be destroyed by the wolves."

The emperor listened to Alice's prophecy, thoughtful.

Soon after, the emperor began to act, first framing Kazan for rebelling against the empire, and then ordering Kazan's friend Ozma to suppress it.

Ozma was shocked to hear that Kazan rebelled against the empire, but out of loyalty to the empire and the emperor, he still obeyed the order to suppress it.

But during the battle, he was arrested along with Kazan by the sudden appearance of Imperial troops.

At such a time, Ozma finally realized that all this was a conspiracy of the emperor.

After Kazan and Ozma succeeded in expelling Hess, the dragon, there was already a faint trend of high meritorious deeds. In this case, the emperor was a little worried that their power would continue to expand and threaten his position.

It just so happened that the appearance of Alice and that story made the emperor make up his mind at once, and he would kill the two of them at all costs.

So, after learning that her family was murdered and her lover Liz became the emperor's favorite concubine, Ozma had a nervous breakdown and fell into despair.

Abandoned in the sea, he accepted the proposal of the god of death and exchanged his soul for the power to destroy the world.

After that, he became the God of Chaos and began to spread the blood curse to human society.

Although people who have been cursed are no different from ordinary humans in appearance, their hearts have been occupied by demons.

These people are called "pretenders", and it mainly works on people with weak beliefs or weak hearts.

There are rumors that creatures such as werewolves and vampires in human myths and legends are actually pretenders.

The scary thing about the pretender is that the human beings attacked by it will also become pretenders.Just like the T virus in Resident Evil, if you are bitten or caught by a zombie, you will be infected and become their kind.

In this way the spread spreads until everyone is infected.

Like zombies, pretenders generally attack their closest people, with family and friends bearing the brunt.

What's even scarier than zombies is that because pretenders can't be distinguished from normal humans based on appearance alone, people begin to doubt each other. Any suspicious behavior that's different from usual is magnified infinitely and is considered to be pretenders.

As a result, there is no longer trust between friends and relatives. What is even more disgusting is that some people take this opportunity to deliberately frame them, causing countless tragedies. The human world has now fallen into a whirlpool of doubt and chaos.

During this period, the dark elf king Barak also colluded with the pretenders led by Ozma and launched an attack on the elves.

At this time, Ozma finally appeared and threatened to destroy all human beings in order to retaliate.

After the fall of the greatest hero in human history, he finally became the most terrible enemy of mankind.

Until the year 253 of the Arad calendar, the dark jihad broke out.
