Su Ming moved his neck, he felt that when the phantom of Emperor Weishan flashed in the void just now, it seemed that Hoggs glared at him, was it delusional?
It should be an illusion, the tiger's eyes are round at all times, otherwise how can it be called a tiger.He took out a lighter to light a cigarette for the prince and the old steward, and patted them on the shoulder with a smile: "The agreement has also been signed, so everyone is their own people, let's say, how do you want to quell this rebellion?"
Do you prefer to be gentle, or rough?
”Jason was a stranger to tobacco, a specialty of the earth, and he took a deep breath like a death knell, choking and coughing, and the boss quickly patted him on the back.It took him a long time to wipe his tears and eased up: "Is there a difference between gentleness and roughness in war?"
”"Faced with this situation, I have more than a dozen solutions, but I want you to choose, unless you don't like to have a choice."
Su Ming took out the wine again, motioned for the two to find a place to sit, and everyone talked slowly, the global war on the ground will not end so soon: "You saw me for the first time today, probably because you are not familiar with my style, let's just put it this way, generally my enemies have only three ends - euthanasia, tragic death, and death." ”"Isn't it all death?"
The old steward asked the same question, he really didn't understand the difference between these deaths.Su Ming smiled slightly and nodded slowly: "You're right, the result is death, but the process is different."
What does Prince Jason plan to do with these rebels?
Did they all skin and hang them on the orbital space station?
Or do you cut them all into pieces and feed them to the fish?
Reclamation of bones from the sea?
”Jason froze and smiled awkwardly but politely, "That doesn't sound very gentle." ”"Gentle, too."
Su Ming immediately came up with a new plan: "Spartacus has four satellite celestial bodies, that is, there are four moons, I can find someone to project a large illusion to the moon, as long as the people who see these moons will be deeply hypnotized into the dream dimension, they will never wake up again, and die without pain, I call this the 'Eye of the Moon' plan, how about it?"
Isn't it gentle?
”Kama Taj doesn't have a mage who can do this, but one of the dimension lords of the Split Realm, the Nightmare representing 'Dreams', can do so.Although the nightmare was also cheated last time, he didn't pay or suffer losses, at most he just ran for nothing, and Su Ming was sure to negotiate another condition with him.Let Spartacus open his faith, this is definitely not useless, but a trading interface opened up for the demon gods in advance.As long as you wait patiently and wait for the sorcerer to appear in Spartacus, then whoever is the main god of worship here will be able to profit the most in terms of the price of the transaction.This is a planet, nearly 10 billion people, even if this condition is placed in front of an old fox like Mephisto, he can't help but be tempted.Jason unknowingly gave out a lot more chips than he realized, "This, illusion?
Will civilians be harmed?
”Jason frowned, he had an ominous premonition about this kind of plan.Su Ming nodded very frankly: "Magic of this scale must be friend or foe, but it doesn't matter, when the war goes on the second day, most civilians should hide in their rooms or basements and shiver, and if they can see the moon when they go out, seven or eight times out of ten are not good people." ”He looked through the cockpit at the distant planet, which really looked like the Earth, and from the universe, the sea radiated a blue glow, surrounding the emerald continents, and from time to time there were explosions like red flowers.It's beautiful.Jason was speechless, the corners of his mouth twitching, what the hell is this?
The old steward was very good at observing words, and he immediately spoke his inner thoughts for the prince: "No, this plan is so crazy that even if one person is injured by mistake, we will have a troubled conscience, let alone thousands. ”"Well, well, I'm just too good to give you a chance to pick and choose."
Su Ming sat down and tapped the table with the bottom of the wine bottle: "But I have to warn you, this may be the fastest way." ”The old manager was silent, he just raised his head and looked at the prince beside him, this kind of thing, only the future emperor has the right to decide.Jason's face changed for a moment, and then his expression became firm, and his hands pressed against the cold table in front of him: "Do you have any other plans?"
I cannot sacrifice innocent people for my throne. ”Su Ming pulled out a glass, filled it with brownish-red liquid, and slid it into their hands on the metal tabletop, the faint light in the cabin reflecting an ominous light from his armor."
Of course, there is a plan, but the effect may be much slower, that is, we will send a large army of the mysterious side to join this proxy war."
He seemed a little helpless and reluctant, but he showed all his emotions on his face, so that he could appear honest.Gin, who had been drinking and listening to the drink, pursed his lips and tolerated his laughter.She knew that he was only now showing his fox tail and going out in person, which should be his favorite story.There are many reasons why Knell wants to participate in this war, but one of them is that he wants to play a game with the Kree Empire and the Xia Empire, and at the same time disgrace the Galactic Council, which looks down on the Earth.Where is the fun if things end too quickly?
Poor Spartans were kept in the dark, and did they really think that the Supreme Mage would do cosmic charity?
The various choices that Death Knell said, they are not qualified to enjoy now, the future of this planet has long been doomed to know nothing Jason looked very dazed, he took the wine glass and did not rush to drink, but scratched his hair: "What is the army on the mysterious side?"
I didn't understand what you said about magic before, and I'm afraid your translator is a little behind. ”"Magic is a manifestation of power borrowed from a higher energy entity in the universe, and the caster connects himself with the demon gods through specific brief rituals, releasing those borrowed cosmic energies to destroy enemies, or protect themselves."
Su Ming said a relatively easy to understand statement, of course, this is not comprehensive: "And the army on the mysterious side is such as the corpse that can walk and kill the enemy by itself, the demon with horns on the head and the whole body burning, etc., and so on. ”The old steward drank the wine in the cup first, and only after making sure that it was safe did he quench the prince's thirst, he took the wine bottle and said: "I have heard of the existence of these monsters before, but I didn't expect it to be true, are you sure that you can control these monster armies and not harm our people?"
”Su Ming picked up the wine glass and touched it with him: "You don't have to worry about this, the army of the undead is definitely the most obedient army in the universe, silent and efficient, you can do without logistics, and you are not afraid of any sacrifice."
Although some people regard the undead as evil, the use of the undead is only a means, why they are used, and what kind of ends they are intended to achieve, these are the things that should be paid attention to. ”Jason thought for a moment and nodded convincingly: "Your wisdom is unmatched, just follow the plan you said." ”"Good, but it's still a bit scary for skeletons and zombies to appear on the streets, and the army of the undead needs to be disguised in order not to frighten the children.If you look at the map, where is the location where you used to store your uniforms?
”"I know this, I'll do it."
The old steward is equivalent to the great steward of the kingdom, not to mention other places, at least he still knows about the material reserves of the capital.He immediately used his finger to zoom in on the map of the planet, locked on the location of the capital, and marked the locations one by one.Su Ming just glanced at it and wrote it all down.If it is a human army fighting, then it is very dangerous to fight deep behind enemy lines.But unlike the undead army, it is natural that the spread of death will bloom from the largest urban centers.It's a pity that his army of the undead comes from the black light, and it would be better if it was a contagious virus.When the Xia Empire and the Kree Empire planned to cultivate agents, thinking that they were playing StarCraft, Su Ming directly sacrificed the undead and played Warcraft with them, and everyone was confused for whoever came.The few empires that entered the entrance basically took the technological route, and they could not be said to know anything about the power of magic and rules, and the undead army could not have appeared at this time.The entire planet is a battlefield, and there is a lack of everything, that is, no lack of corpses.When the capital of the Spartan Empire fell into darkness, the fighting showed no sign of stopping, and the two factions had already killed red-eyed armies and were engaged in the fiercest street battles in the city.From time to time, you can see fireworks-like explosions, or energy beams that pierce the sky, and the various flying machines overhead, they are like earth street lamps that hover and chase in the air, not only giving others death, but also facing the same fate themselves.Su Ming had long understood why 'Death' activated his black light ring, and the answer was simple.He was seen as a spokesman for death in another world.Stained with another breath of death, he was the first choice in Wade's woman's mind to spread death and harvest souls.It used to be Thanos, and now she wants to use herself again.Using the power of the dead to be given a death knell, she said it was a gift and a gift, but how can there be benefits in the world that are obtained for no reason?
Just because he sent Wade over to reunite with her?
Not really.Death is too humane, then she has her own plan, her little cousin is a psychopath, and there is no woman he is looking for who is not mentally ill.However, if she wants to calculate the death knell, she is still a little short.Give her a sweet taste first, and when the time comes, "This is the cemetery on the outskirts of the capital, where people who have died over the past thousands of years are buried." ”The steward, with Deathknell, took advantage of the darkness to land on a wilderness on a spaceship completely obscured by illusion.The night will not help with concealment, and the dependence of the group to walk on the road with a big grin is still the illusion released by gin.Su Ming looked at the dense tombstones, and he couldn't see the edge in the dark night, he nodded with satisfaction: "Congratulations on not choosing cremation or space funeral, burying your dead relatives and leaving you a huge fortune." ”"Cremation?
Space funeral?
”Jason asked the old manager with some doubts, when he came to the cemetery in the middle of the night, he still felt a little cold all over his body, his hand on the hilt of the sword, and he looked around from time to time.The old manager bowed his head slightly and explained in a low voice: "There is a custom among the interstellar marauders that it is a very barbaric custom to throw the corpses of their dead companions into space, along with some things that the deceased liked when they were alive.As for cremation, I don't know. ”"Cremation is a custom on earth, where the bodies of deceased relatives are transported to a designated place and burned to ashes, and then the ashes are collected for worship."
Su Ming patiently explained to his alien allies as he walked to the center of the cemetery.It seems that the rebels have little interest in the cemetery, and there is no sign of war here.Well, it can be seen that the Spartans did not have the custom of burial goods, otherwise the dead would not be affected by the war."
Wow!"
Jason and the manager shook their heads in unison, and the old man had a look of disbelief on his face, and muttered, "Why did you burn the bodies of your relatives?"
Is it just for ease of preservation?
”"It's too dark."
Jason also felt a little unacceptable, it would have been miserable enough to die, why did he burn him with fire?
Gin walked beside Su Ming, and she turned her head and replied, "There is a similar custom in Asgard, where the deceased is placed in a small boat, the boat is pushed into the sea, and then it is set on fire with a bow that ignites the fire, and the funeral goods include fine wine, the deceased's weapons before his death, and sometimes a horse. ”Jason's master and servant could only show an embarrassed but polite smile on their faces, they still couldn't accept alien customs.Su Ming took off the armor of one hand and focused his energy on the black light ring: "Every country has different customs, what we have to do is to seek common ground while reserving differences, as for why the body is burned, you will soon understand"
