The Adak army's camp is very different from that of the Basaran Empire.
Their camp likes to use earth blocks to build a circle of walls... not high, only about one meter or so, and then install guardrails on it.
With such a large circle, it feels a bit like building a house, and the camp is inside, and the war horses and exotic beasts are locked outside.
This layout was difficult for Sean to accept for a while. It was full of loopholes no matter how he looked at it. However, when he asked the two commanders, they said that this method was the best.
Because once the enemy sieges, the large monsters will rush out immediately... and they can also hinder the enemy to a certain extent from outside, thus protecting the camp.
The two regions have different ways of thinking.
That's why Sean took this opportunity to learn about the culture of Adak...
There weren't many books, just a few I'd gotten from a few soldiers. Soldiers usually took things with them on expeditions based on their personal preferences, so the barracks weren't big on carrying much, but books weren't part of their baggage.
Even when they were in their own city of Oro, some soldiers liked to bring books with them when they went to war, mainly to kill time at night and have some fun.
Melsusa found a lot of books for herself from the generals and soldiers in the camp. Maybe she thought she would be staying there for a long time, so she moved all the books here.
"Is this enough, Your Highness?"
Sean looked at the slowly growing pile in front of him.
"It won't take that much. I'm just killing time."
"Yes, but we may be here for a while," Melsusa said.
"Is the situation on the front line very tense?"
Sean asked about the war situation on the day he arrived. The fighting on the front line had actually been going smoothly. The Borg and Bashalan countries were already in a life-and-death battle. Suddenly joining either side would tip the balance.
Although the Borg's resistance has been getting stronger recently, it also means that their remaining combat power is running low. In less than a year, the Bashalan Empire suffered hundreds of thousands of military and civilian casualties, and the Borg also suffered heavy losses.
If Sean had known the news earlier, he would not have given face to King Simon in the palace.
What a pity...
Lost an opportunity to slap someone in the face.
But on second thought, it might be better to leave them a way out so that Frelia would be more tolerant.
"Recent intelligence reports indicate that the Borg's resistance is very tenacious, and supplies on the front lines have been very tight."
"We are nervous, and the Borg are also having a hard time... There is no need to worry about this. They are at the end of their strength and don't want to spread the war front to their own country. Otherwise, their resistance may be worse than that of the Bashalan Empire." Sean said, looking at the map on the table next to him.
I am not at the front line and cannot fully open the map of the front line, but from what I saw in my previous dreams, I know that there are many anti-war voices even in Borg's own team.
"Your Highness seems very confident in his control of the battle situation!"
"Otherwise, how can we defeat the Golden Group?" he said with a smile.
"However, His Royal Highness's magic is also very powerful. He was able to defeat the Grand Court Wizard of the Bashalan Empire."
That’s it…
At this point Sean gradually discovered that everyone's memory was confused.
I hadn't noticed it before, thinking that it was Prince Jagun's identity that prevented people from asking. Later, when I heard them telling the story in front of other generals, I realized that they had a completely different version of the story.
The process of controlling time and fighting with La Push was gone, and instead there appeared an inexplicable story of a head-on duel with the opponent. In a one-on-one fight, he was no match for La Push.
But what they said was very complete, and in the end they killed the enemy with the help of the golden sword!
Looking back, Sean had always felt that there was a look of fear in the eyes of King Simon and the others when they looked at him. Now he finally understood why. Perhaps they had the same scene in their memories.
In this case, perhaps Yog-Sothoth used a powerful force that he himself could not understand to distort the memories of those present.
I guess it's to prevent people from knowing that there is a being that controls time and dimension. Even I find it difficult to say its name... It's something that I don't know how to describe!
Sean suddenly looked up at the sky outside the tent. Above the dome seemed to be an unimaginable world.
"Your Highness?"
Melsusa's call brought Sean out of his thoughts.
"Hmm? Why... By the way, Commander Melsusa, I'd like to ask what the sun god is that is often mentioned in this book?" I happened to turn to a name that was often mentioned in the book.
In the Adak books I read, there is often talk about the protection of the sun god and so on.
"It's the Sun God."
Mel Souza's statement made Sean even more confused.
"Is there any story behind this? It can't be a deity."
Even now, Sean gets a headache whenever he hears about gods! These so-called gods seem very different from what people imagine. They never care about the life or death of humans.
There is no such thing as holy light, protection and blessing.
Even saying their names can drive people crazy...
"The Sun God is the god worshipped by all the desert countries, and we are all the people of the Sun God." Melsusa said.
Well……
This explanation seems to be the same as not saying anything.
"There's also a Sun Temple there."
"Um."
"Priests too?"
He nodded as well.
"Your Highness, you didn't grow up in Adak, so you don't have this feeling. But if you enter the desert area, you must always keep in mind the reverence for the Sun God," Melsusa said [seriously!].
"Legend has it that in ancient times, Adak wasn't originally a desert, but a gloomy and terrifying area, infested with all sorts of monsters... One day, fire from the sky descended and burned away all the darkness, turning it into a desert hundreds of years later. But it was also because of this fire from the sky that oases began to grow, allowing our ancestors to thrive."
"This is what the priests said, right?" Sean asked.
Religion always has some legendary color.
Maybe it's not entirely groundless, but most of it is exaggerated.
"It was indeed passed down by the priests, but there's a record in the Sun Temple... Your Highness can go and see it when the time comes. It's also because of the Sun God's celestial fire that the animals in the Adak region grow stronger than those in other places."
The story Melsusa told isn't recorded in any of these books. I'd really like to read it if I have the chance...
Sun god.
I don’t know if this can be considered as one of the records about the ancient gods.
