"Now, our kingdom is about to be destroyed … this destruction might seem like a 'natural disaster', but I know … this is all their doing! Those 'Gods' did it on purpose! They want to destroy us … "
"But I can't stop it …"
The king of Atlan spoke in front of Lin, his voice filled with helplessness and fear. He didn't believe in those mechanical Gods. If you have reached this point, please move to
: Chinese
Lin asked the king: "You can't stop them even though you're the king?"
"In truth, those cults are even more powerful than I, the king …" the king replied: "And that God is extremely powerful, I can't fight against it …"
The king continued: "It wants to destroy us, then gather the rest of us and transport them somewhere else … although I don't know where they want to go, I heard that they won't have a peaceful life from now on …"
"How do you know so much?" Lin asked doubtfully.
"Ah, my child … I … haven't told you, but I actually believe in a true God, it had already predicted all of this" The king spoke with a sorrowful tone: "But I can't stop it. In the entire palace, most of the Atlan citizens have submitted themselves to the false God that has deceived us, those standing here right now … including you, are one of the few who can still be trusted. “
So that's how it is, this character is the king's child? Although Lin had more or less guessed it before, Lin felt that it was a bit strange. If this character was the king's child, then what was the role of the Atlan that came in with Lin?
"Right now, the prophecy of destruction will most likely spread throughout the city, then those cults will gather all the citizens without permission. Before that happens, we must act first" The king continued: "Child, although you have a lot of questions, due to time constraints … I can only answer a few of them, so ask whatever you want"
If that's the case …
Lin then asked the king a few questions.
Sure enough, the 'child' that Lin was playing seemed to have grown up without knowing anything. Only now did she come into contact with this information, which was why the king said that he would answer Lin's questions.
It was said that the 'false God' had begun to influence this city several hundred years ago. At first, they were small groups, but they quickly grew and expanded.
And Lin could see the crystallized energy here everywhere. It was also because of the influence of the churches that they began to use it. The king admitted that this kind of energy was indeed very useful, but because of it, the churches became more and more powerful.
In the end, as now, the King's own orders were not as effective as theirs. Most of the people believed in that religion.
However, before the arrival of the church, the kings and a few members of the royal family had already believed in … a real god.
This belief had never wavered. The main reason was that this' True God 'had always been able to predict what would happen later. He had predicted the entire church and the false god.
However, only a few members of the royal family knew about it, so it didn't have much influence …
Of course, it was also because this' True God 'had requested not to publicize its existence.
Therefore, the king could only make preparations in secret.
"We have prepared this thing now. It was given to me by the True God." After describing the general situation, the king took out a disc-shaped object.
This … was the disk with the crystal embedded in it that Lin found in the Void.
"Most of the people will probably leave after this. But according to the True God's prophecy, they will return after a long time … at that time, they will know the true face of the false god and will no longer follow him. After that, they will be able to learn about our history and everything that happened in the past through this disk … "
"What exactly is this thing?" Lin asked doubtfully.
"The True God told me that this is something that will allow them to learn about the past, but I don't know how to use it either. There are also some other things that I need to prepare …" The king then called out to a corner of the hall: "You should all be ready as well!"
"We are!" Lin heard a voice coming from the corner of the hall. A group of miniature Atlan … walked over.
Of course, they weren't Atlan. Judging from their size and size … they were obviously 'illusions'.
"We are ready. King. " Each of these illusions carried something that looked like a backpack on their back. Each of them had an extremely nervous expression as they spoke: "We can begin at any time."
Although they didn't have skeletons, their muscles were strong enough to allow them to stand up like Atlan. Furthermore, they could make various expressions from their heads that weren't actually heads.
"Very well, then go." After the king said that, all of them quickly ran away. All the illusions quickly ran away. They seemed to be very familiar with the king.
"They are going to inject a special substance into most of the people right now." The king explained to Lin: "This way, when their descendants return to this place in the future, they will be able to feel that this place is their homeland …"
Lin asked doubtfully: "This effect can be passed on to their descendants?"
"Yes, this is also something that the True God gave us …" the king also appeared a bit confused: "You're acting a bit strange today … why are you … not curious about what those 'miniature Atlan' are?"
"Because too many things have happened." Lin calmly replied.
"… Is that so? Fine, we don't have much time left. After the destruction comes, our entire race might disappear from this world … at least for a very long time. I don't want that to happen … "the king walked up to Lin and spoke with a serious tone:" Child! You are the only one who can inherit me! That is why I want you to live! You must lead a portion of the 'followers' to live! "
"… Live?"
"That's right. I will have you all board the fastest ship and leave this kingdom tonight! You will sail to the distant sea, land on other continents, then live in other places and rebuild our kingdom. " The king continued: "Although the fake church said that the entire world will be destroyed, my True God told me that only this island will be destroyed."
"That is why … other places are safe. Live! Take our future with you! "
That sounds interesting. Lin felt that the content of this memory was quite rich.
"Then, do you not want to live?" Lin asked.
"All Kings must die in this Sea God City. This is our fate." The king said: "And I am already old. It is not convenient for me to travel with you all … all of you!"
The King suddenly called out to the entrance, and Reen saw a group of heavily armed Atlan approaching.
"All of you … protect Maxiyoupula."
"Yes, we will protect you with our lives!" The group of Atlan knelt in front of Lin and spoke with a very respectful tone. 'Maxiyoupula' seemed to be the name of Lin's character.
"They will set out with you. They will protect your safety during the journey." The king said: "I don't know what you will encounter in the future … Unfortunately, I can't give you any protection. There are too many gorgeous and useless jewels in this palace."
"But, I can still give you one thing, child." With that, the king took out something and handed it to Lin. Lin found that it was an empty shell of a snail.
"This is the 'Sea God Horn' that has been passed down for generations." The king said: "If you encounter any danger at sea, blow it. The god of the sea will protect you."
Lin picked up the shell and looked at it carefully. Although it looked like the snails on the pom-poms, there was no such type of pom-poms.
But no matter what, the ecology of Ershi and pom-poms seemed to be quite similar …
Just like that, after the king said some words of lamentation, he let Lin return to the room.
What happened next was just as the 'prophecy'. The church had spread the news of the destruction throughout the city, causing the entire city to fall into panic.
However, they quickly said that they had enough time to prepare for the disaster, so the city quickly quieted down.
The king, on the other hand, appeared very nervous. Late at night, after Lin's character had eaten a dinner made entirely of sea creatures, the king hurriedly announced that they had to leave as soon as possible.
If they delayed for too long, the church might become suspicious, so they had to prepare in a hurry tonight.
There were a total of 30 Atlans prepared, including Lin's character, half male and half female. Unlike the other Ershi residents, the Atlans' male and female physiques were almost the same.
Almost all of them were warriors known as' royal elites' and would be able to protect Lin's safety during this journey.
Although Lin felt that it would be very difficult for such a small number of Atlans to restore to a large kingdom, these were still memories. Even if Lin gave them any suggestions, they wouldn't change. Even if they did … changing the content of the memories was meaningless.
Aside from these elite guards, there was also a ship, a pile of rations, fresh water, and of course, a lot of weapons.
The Atlans knew how to use weapons like crossbows and arrows, but they didn't know anything like explosive bullets. They didn't seem to have thought of using the crystals as explosive bullets.
After the citizens of the city fell asleep, Lin and this group of elite guards quietly slipped out of the palace and went to the dock. This dock was different from the one Lin came from. There wasn't a single Atlan here, and there were no other ships either. There was only one ship here.
It looked like a wooden ship that was powered by wind, but the king said that the ship was mainly powered by crystals and could quickly move on the sea.
"There they are!"
