Chapter 1999 Life and Death
"Confused, speaking of this, there is one thing I really want to get your help. My current position is very confusing, because Veronica, I must be the Phoenix King. , and with this power, I must take responsibility, so the Ada are eager to restore the past of their race's prosperity, but I am an Astartes, and my mission is to destroy all existences that threaten human galactic hegemony. I can I have a premonition that one day, the Eternal Royal Court will definitely clash with the Empire, and the two will always have irreconcilable conflicts. To tell you the truth, I sometimes shudder when I think of this. I am very scared, afraid that one day my identity will be revealed. , the sudden change of eyes of soldiers, comrades, and those who support and trust me. I know that what I have done has brought shame to the chapter and the legion, but I can't find any solution."
Soshiyang stared at the confused person and said very sincerely:
"I will not evade my responsibility. As you said, this is the price I have to pay for my decision. At that moment , I will entrust the legion and the unfinished business to the trustworthy people, and calmly die to atone for my sins. Only Veronica, I know that it was the Bewitcher who sent her to the ancient holy land. I hope that if One day, in consideration of my hard work of fighting for the empire for more than a hundred years, please send her there and don't tell anyone."
The bewitcher didn't answer, just the mask was stunned. Staring at him, although through the mask, Suoshiyang could indeed feel the other party's substantial gaze.
"Soshyan, what should I say?"
"."
"What will your wife think if she knows all this? She will only be driven to death by resentment and hatred. His husband's empire, she will not stay in a safe place to hide from everything as you expect. I believe you should know what Elena is like."
Hearing confusion. When the reporter mentioned Elena, Soshiyang's face suddenly dimmed and he was speechless.
“At that time, the Eternal Queen will become a vengeful shadow, forever shrouding the heads of humans and Eldar. How deeply she loves you now will turn into hatred for humans and the Empire. How deep will it go, she will use all her strength to take revenge on mankind.”
"I, Veronica, probably won't"
"Soshyan, I never hide my opinions, so if it comes to that, the best way is to kill her."
< br>The Beguiler said the last three words very softly, but Soshyan suddenly froze as if struck by lightning and clenched his fists.
“So.”
Then, the confused person changed the topic.
"You must live well and try your best to avoid all this."
Soshiyang's body relaxed slightly, and then replied with a wry smile:
" But what attitude and method should I use to deal with the Eternal Royal Court?”
“It’s useless to ask me. No human being has ever been the ruler of a group of Ada, even the emperor you call me. The emperor has never done it. You can only think of a way to weigh it yourself, but as I said, there will always be a way."
"Oh, this is the only way."
"Speaking of which, didn't she tell you about that?"
"Huh? Who?"
The bewitcher paused for a moment, seemed to be thinking, and finally shook his head.
"Forget it, you will always know."
Suddenly, Soshiyang had a flash of inspiration.
"Is it Velez?"
The Bewitcher shook his head.
“It has nothing to do with her.”
“Since you know Velez, you are the one who said those things about her.”
“Ha, you still She set a trap for me, but it has nothing to do with me. You don’t need to pay too much attention to it. She won’t pose any threat to you, so you don’t need to care too much.”
Soshyan thought for a while, then turned to look at the hourglass not far away.
"I seem to have been here for a long time, and it's time to go back."
The Bewitcher was still sitting on the sofa, and just waved his hand gently.
“You can just go out through this door.”
Soshiyang nodded, stood up and walked out the door, but just when he was about to step out, there was another sound from behind. The voice of the deceiver.
"By the way, there is one more thing I need to ask you."
Soshiyang turned around and saw the confused man standing up, facing himself, and nodded.
“Please tell me.”
“Send my regards to Venerable Ananda. If you are still confused, maybe he can answer it for you.”
“Ananda "Venerable." This word was almost unfamiliar to Soshyan, and it was completely unlike the current language of the empire, but he still heard it clearly, but he didn't understand what it meant.
"Is it a name? Who is he?"
The confused man did not answer, but clasped his hands together and nodded slightly.
“Wait, could it be——”
Soshiyang just stretched out his hand, and in the blink of an eye, he found himself sitting in the church again, with his hand reaching towards the imperial icon in front of him, and The statue stared at him without sadness or joy.
Suddenly, he felt the sweetness on the tip of his tongue, and then discovered that the rose candy he had held in his mouth had not melted yet. In other words, he actually only experienced such a short moment -
Crush it with his teeth. Rose candy, Soshyan recalled the previous actions of the bewitcher, and he immediately knew who the other party wanted him to find.
Tan Zong, Master Shi.
Obviously, the origin of the other party is far from as simple as what was said before.
So he stood up immediately, turned around and took steps, hurriedly left the church and boarded the Storm Bird, heading to a remote valley on Sagan Prime.
"I remember you said that after you left the land of Canaan, you traveled to the east and practiced with the princes of the Sakyamuni tribe."
While Soshiyang left, Er, who was wearing a white nun's robe, Da opened the door and slowly walked into the tea room.
“After the legendary Buddha died, you disappeared for five hundred years, but you never told me what exactly you did.”
“I went to find wisdom. ."
Erda sat opposite him, crossing one leg.
"Unfortunately, you don't seem to have found it. So what did the Buddha teach you? In the end, you chose the Himalayas as the starting point. Is it also related to this experience?"
The bewildered person just chuckled and did not answer.
At this time, in the sound of wind and rain outside, there was a flapping sound of wings and the croaking of some kind of birds. Upon hearing this sound, Erda immediately stood up and turned around to walk towards the tea room. behind the bookshelf.
Not long after, the door of the tea room was slowly pushed open by some force. The confused man was still sitting on the old sofa and filled the tea cup again.
At the door behind him, a shadow appeared that no light could penetrate.
After a moment, a hoarse voice came from the shadows.
"Ruth is very stubborn and I can't persuade him."
The Beguiler sighed softly and picked up the teacup, but stopped when he put it to his mouth.
“Did you take action?”
“No, he was angry and wanted to drive me away, but I didn’t take action against him.”
"Well"
The Beguiler took a sip of tea, then fell into silence. After a long time, he said slowly:
"He is waiting for an opportunity. It is completely impossible for a Soshiyang to arrive. Opportunities around Veronica."
Then, a gloomy voice sounded faintly.
"Blackstone Fortress."
"Well, I don't want to force you on this matter, you can make your own choice."
The tea room fell into a long silence again, but this time it was the shadow that broke the silence.
“I may not be able to do it now”
“In fact, you don’t have to do it, maybe you can take advantage of that.”
