Chapter 749 The Right Destruction
St. George stood up angrily and questioned the three people present, and even questioned the Offa Parliament.
However, the Offa Parliament remained silent and did not respond.
He didn't need to respond.
"Pull!" St. George turned around angrily. "Tell me, I want Roland Sky Realm to continue. Is that wrong?"
La looked calm.
Now that he knew the whole story, he could put his worries aside for the time being.
Facing the angry teacher in front of him, La did not make any extra expression.
"Teacher, I also hope that Roland can continue—everyone in Roland Sky Realm hopes so."
"Then why are you trying to stop me? Why are you siding with an alien civilization? You're clearly a mage, a Roland!" St. George's face was filled with rage, his voice growing deeper. "Hurry, initiate a mage referendum right now. There's still time... We can stop Parliament from halting the survival code!"
"...Give up, teacher."
Ra seemed to sigh.
"Yu Cang and I will not agree to the Mage Referendum. Moreover—Roland Sky Realm has been destroyed. This is a fact. Do you want our proud civilization to continue in the Star Realm as undead?"
“You…” St. George clenched his fists.
"Teacher, I can tell you," La said seriously, "On the day Roland Sky Realm fell, the mages fought to the very end. Every one of them was more worthy of the title of mage than I am. This was a glorious end. Teacher, please do not tarnish the mages' honor."
When he said this, La looked a little lonely.
During the long time he was bound by the giant sun tree, La thought countless times in his heart... it would be great if he could die in battle that day instead of running away.
Roland's Sky Realm was destroyed, and he went to the Star Realm alone, like a deserter.
But he also has things to do.
He wanted to find a way to eliminate the wasteland, to eliminate the wasteland for the star realm...
He wants revenge!
To be honest, he also knows how Nefara distorts the sanctuary. If he wants, after thousands of years of preparation, he can completely transform another civilization into a second Roland Sky Realm, with no flaws from material to cognition.
But he knew in his heart that if he did so, it would be an insult to the mages who died in the battle.
And what was the point? When Huang came knocking again, could he possibly hold out any longer than Roland Sky Realm did in its heyday?
Everyone in Roland's Sky Realm didn't want the mage civilization to perish, so they fought to the bitter end. Although the outcome was still destruction... they accepted it.
The reason for rejecting the survival code was not because La's position had changed to Blue Star. Even if he stood from the perspective of Roland Sky Realm, he would still make this choice.
The glory of Roland Sky Realm does not need to sprout on the corpses of other civilizations.
As soon as these words were spoken, St. George's face darkened. He stared at La, his face twitching, but he didn't say a word.
"...St. George, my old rival."
At this time, the ancient dragon Ornn beside him also spoke,
"I said it back then—"
St. George: “…”
"I will give Roland the Void Realm—the right kind of destruction."
Orne looked at Saint George with a complicated expression, "Give up... Roland Sky Realm will not perish. Our knowledge will be recorded in books, and our epics will be sung as songs. Under the starry sky, there will be future civilizations. They will learn from us, study us, and surpass us, but they will not, and do not need to, become us.
"Our history is already glorious enough; there's no need to continue with those unrhymed chapters. Saint George, you've already failed."
Hearing this, St. George was silent for a long time.
After a while, he took a deep breath.
"...Good, good, good." St. George's eyes swept over the three people present. "You, very good—you traitors to Roland!"
After saying this, St. George's figure disappeared on the spot.
The one here was originally a projection of him. Now, he knew that he could no longer change anything, so he simply dispersed the projection.
This projection is naturally also a spell, but it is not St. George's, but a spell that comes with the Council of Arcane Magic.
In the council, one is not allowed to use one's own spells, but the Council of Arcane Magic has many spells of its own that can be used by authorized mages.
The projection in front of him was one of them, and the teleportation to his seat before was also one of them.
St. George left the Great Hall and the scene fell silent for a moment, with no one speaking first.
A thoughtful look flashed in Yu Cang's eyes.
So that's how it is... After listening to what Ornn said, he probably guessed why St. George dragged Ornn to die together.
Listen to this line.
"Give Roland the Sky Realm the correct destruction"
Is this something a decent character would say?
He originally thought that Ornn had been treated as a dragon for more than 100,000 years, and perhaps someone had maliciously rewritten history.
Now it seems that there is no need for any rewriting.
Just based on this line, it is not necessarily unfair that Ornn has been scolded for so many years.
At the same time, he also remembered the question St. George asked during the first level of the mage test.
“If the development of civilization is based on a ‘mistake’, should we still persist? Even if it is a ‘correct’ mistake?”
Now that I think about it, this question may have come from what Ornn said back then.
St. George believed that destruction, no matter what kind, was wrong and should be stopped, while Aoun believed that it should be accepted.
Now that I think about it, St. George himself said it during the first phase… Parliament disagreed with him.
Maybe he already knew the outcome... he just didn't want to admit it.
What was my answer at that time?
I remember it seemed like... "We should move forward."
He was still cautious at that time and did not give a biased answer.
And now, Yu Cang asked himself, if he put himself in that situation...
What if Blue Star eventually fell under Huang's attack, and he was none other than Saint George...
Yu Cang was silent.
Perhaps, he would be as unwilling as St. George and want to do something for the survival of Blue Star, and would never be as calm as Ornn.
Well... he should be like Pull.
After struggling hard, accept destruction and choose revenge.
Who knows.
Something that hadn't happened yet, Yu Cang couldn't determine what choice he would make at that time.
But, one thing is certain.
As he said, he will move forward.
Go forward until there is no way to go further.
Thinking about it this way, St. George's actions are not difficult to understand... Unfortunately, he stood on the opposite side of Blue Star.
In silence, Yu Cang calmed down.
He calmed himself down and spoke first: "Senior Orn...what do we need to do next?"
A smile crossed Ornn's face. "Don't worry—I'll cancel the survival code. You can do whatever you want."
Yu Cang nodded: "In other words... our previous worries were all unnecessary?"
"You could say that," Ornn said. "In fact, if you hadn't spotted me, I wouldn't have shown up. Although I'd love to see the old man St. George's expression when he sees me again, he's very powerful, so it's better to avoid any complications."
Although, in theory, St. George had no way to stop the parliament's decision, he had to be extremely cautious when facing a wizard.
Therefore, Ornn's original plan was to hide first and let St. George really think that he had already won.
When the waiting time was over and St. George discovered that the survival code had not been activated, it was too late to do anything.
Hearing this, Yu Cang blinked and realized something: "So, it was me who disrupted the senior's plan..."
In other words, it was supposed to be twelve hours later. Yu Cang and La were worried for a long time, but in the end nothing happened.
"It's not a problem." Ornn shook his head. "It's worth it to meet the proud children of other civilizations."
At first, he didn't care about Yu Cang.
As he said, he planned to stay put until the survival code came into effect.
He didn't have to show up during the third stage of the mage test... but perhaps he noticed something special about Yu Cang, so he gave him a reminder.
The life and death of La and Yu Cang, and whether Di Changan can break through, have nothing to do with him. His only mission is to terminate the existence code, so he doesn't have to do those things.
Even if he spoke up to remind him, he would only do it briefly to avoid St. George noticing. If Yu Cang was not at the top level of comprehension, this reminder would be the same as not saying anything.
It was a pleasant surprise that Yu Cang was able to break free and allow Di Chang'an to successfully enter the ascension ceremony... Just consider it a good thing that happened.
Thinking of this, Ornn looked at Yu Cang and couldn't help but sigh.
Judging from the fluctuations of his soul... this is undoubtedly a young man. It is really not easy for him to have such strength, means and understanding at such a young age.
So, he said, "Speaking of which... from what La just said, your Blue Star is... 'The Land Where the Imperial Star Fell'?"
Yu Cang nodded: "That's right."
"I see..." Ornn nodded, not quite understanding.
He knew less about the Imperial Star than St. George.
After all, this celestial body is still too mysterious.
But no matter what, he could tell from La's attitude that Blue Star should have a way to deal with the disaster that destroyed Roland Sky Realm.
After a moment's thought, Ornn said, "You should be aware of Archmage Yu Cang's prophecy of destruction."
"Hmm—desire grows until the stars are destroyed."
"Yes, that's it. What I want to say is that this prophecy is not limited to the Roland Sky Realm."
"oh?"
"That prophecy back then... the backlash was extremely severe. Not only did Archmage Vaughn himself, but his entire Astrology Sanctuary ultimately declined and perished under an unknown curse... The stars in the prophecy should have encompassed the entire astral realm!"
Yu Cang nodded seriously: "Indeed... in the current star realm, most civilizations have been destroyed by Huang."
"So, you must pay attention too." Ornn looked at Yu Cang, "You must curb your desires—that is the key to coping with destruction!"
Yu Cang agreed: "I will remember this, Senior Aoun."
Although Yu Cang said this, in his heart... he couldn't help but feel a little shaken.
According to what happened in Roland's Sky Realm, if even the desire to survive is counted as desire, then the final outcome is doomed to failure, isn't it?
After all, almost all human activities can be explained by desire...
...Things like prophecies can only be used as a reference after all.
"That's good."
Ornn nodded.
He looked at Yu Cang and changed the subject: "By the way...you said before that you owed me a favor?"
"Yes." Yu Cang said seriously, "If you need anything, you can tell me, as long as it does not harm the interests of Blue Star."
"Um……"
Aoun looked at La next to him again, "He... must have died a long time ago."
"That's right." La said calmly, "It was Yu Cang who helped me survive."
Yu Cang also said: "If you are willing, I can also help you rebuild your body."
Hearing this, Ornn just chuckled a few times.
He could naturally see that La's current state was essentially still controlled by Yu Cang.
Although I can survive, I am still not very comfortable.
And he... all the mages who became the first creators had lived long enough to take life and death very lightly, and he was the same.
"There's no need to rebuild your body," Ornn said. "The Council of Arcane contains all the knowledge of Roland's Sky Realm. If you're serious, I only ask that you take it away and preserve it properly. When you clear the wasteland in the future, let future generations know about us. That will be enough."
Use knowledge, not rule, to continue Roland Sky Realm.
This is Ornn's vision.
"Is that so... I understand." Yu Cang nodded seriously.
So be it.
After Ornn finished speaking, he gently flew up and stood on the circular table. "I don't know. After modifying the survival code, will I disappear or remain? Perhaps this is the last time we meet. Let's say goodbye now."
After saying that, he jumped up and plunged into the devil's abyss in the center of the circular table.
Suddenly, only La and Yu Cang were left in the meeting hall.
After a moment of silence and thought, he said, "Council, is what Orne said true?"
"Confirmed, the existence code will be cancelled, seat."
"...I understand." La breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Yu Cang, "In this case...we just need to wait."
"Okay." Yu Cang nodded.
Since La also said so, he believed it.
Apart from this, he had no other choice.
His current methods cannot influence the Council of Offa.
Although he thought so, Yu Cang still took out a few blank soul cards, picked out some suitable entries from the entry library, and began to implant the entries.
He wanted to try and see if he could summon the Council of Arcane as a soul card.
However, even after trying all the advanced entries once, there was still no success.
In that case - he had no better solution.
The power of the Council of Arcane is very strong. Now there is a wild god who has been brainwashed into a wizard and is constantly launching attacks outside, but there is no ripple in the Council of Arcane.
With this kind of intensity, it would be useless even if he used all his strength.
However, having said that, in the twelve hours before the survival code was about to be activated, Yu Cang was still trying his best to find a way to subdue the Arcane Council by means of card making.
But... the effect was minimal. Or rather, it was of no use at all.
La also used the authority of his seat to make some arrangements - if the Council of Olympians was really teleported to Blue Star later, he could at least use his authority to minimize casualties.
In this way, time passed by minute by minute.
…
At some point.
The countdown of the survival code is reset to zero.
Nothing happened.
"Council, what is the current status of the survival code?"
"Sorry Council—there is no Continuation Code in the Council of Offa."
Hear this sound.
Yu Cang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
These twelve hours were quite torturous.
