(D cup!)
The old man couldn't bear the torture anymore, so he answered all the players' questions.
Just as he said, the imperial court of this [corrupt] country has become a deserted city.
The emperor fled, taking his ministers, nobles and guards through the teleportation array engraved under the imperial court to a place unknown to outsiders.
The reason why the Rossner royal family abandoned the entire country and fled was because the current era was no longer the time when [corruption] prevailed. Faith was gradually collapsing, power was being reconstructed, and more and more people who called themselves "Destroyers" emerged in the entire Continent of Hope.
They believed that the gods no longer paid attention to this continent because human beings' filthiness and dirtiness had polluted the gods' eyes and ears, so they began to destroy the world under the banner of purifying the world for the gods.
Many of Rossna's neighboring countries have been destroyed by the Destroyers. Under the wanton killing of this group of lunatics, no life can escape this disaster. Not only life, but even the traces of life and the accumulation of thousands of years of civilization have been completely dealt with by these Destroyers.
The entire continent was shrouded in the shadow of destruction, and panic was everywhere.
When this wave of fear spread to the Rossna Empire, the declining imperial family became afraid, and the current scene happened.
They abandoned their homes and country and left Kannar through an ancient formation passed down from the Age of Life, leaving the people of this country powerless to remain where they were, waiting for the destroyers' knives to approach.
It is said that at this time, except for the capital Kannar, several other cities had already been reduced to ashes.
The people in the city are still hoping that the royal family will regroup and fight to the death, but these so-called most devout believers of "Corruption" have already secretly betrayed "Corruption" and abandoned this mess of faith.
Since [Corruption] has never bestowed them with power, it will naturally not punish those who are not being watched. Therefore, out of consideration for cherishing their lives, the Rossna royal family chose to preserve themselves in the destruction.
The old man who was left in the palace was the "lucky one" who was chosen to clean up the aftermath.
Once the teleportation formation is activated, it will not be interrupted unless its key engravings are damaged. The Rosna royal family was afraid that those destroyers would catch up, so they left behind a minister who knew how to destroy the engravings.
After destroying the teleportation formation, the minister had no way to go. He foresaw his own end and knew that when the Destroyer arrived and found that the Rossna Royal Court was empty, he would only vent his anger on him. In order to make his ending less tragic, he decided to end his life before the Destroyer came, so he went outside and wanted to freeze to death in the snow.
But who could have thought that when the players came at this time, Dayi found him before he died and brought him to everyone.
After listening to the old man's story, several people looked at each other, with both sighs and enlightenment in their eyes.
They were not surprised by what happened to the Rosna Empire, and even thought of the existence of a "Him" from this description, and that "Him" was...
【Annihilation】
[Decay] has already decayed, and [annihilation] will be born.
It seems that the background of this trial is the time when two beliefs alternated in the [Sinking] Era.
Therefore, those who call themselves destroyers must be believers of annihilation.
The believers of [Annihilation] are not easy to deal with. Most of them have an uncontrollable desire for destruction. Not to mention that this is in the Island of Hope. In this age of worshipping God above all else, nothing can stop these lunatics who advocate destruction!
No wonder the Rosner royal family was so frightened and in a hurry to escape.
After understanding the historical background, everyone fell silent again, because they suddenly realized that the current scene seemed to be completely contrary to what they had imagined.
They originally thought that the person surrounded by the people in the scroll was a person in power, or at least a pious person of status. But now it seems that there is no pious and powerful person in the Rossna Empire.
From the emperor to ministers to nobles to soldiers, all the oathbreakers who abandoned their faith disappeared into a damaged teleportation array and survived, leaving only the ordinary people in the city who were kept in the dark and waited to die.
It's so ridiculous and sad.
In this case, could it be that the scene depicted in the scroll really happened in the past?
Da Yi scratched his head irritably:
"Damn it, I knew this matter was not simple. All those who could gather the masses have run away. It seems I have to start with [memory].
Brother Jiang, I'll have to count on you from now on. Don't worry, you'll get the reward."
Jiang Chi did not respond, he seemed to be still thinking, but Cheng Shi shook his head at Dayi to signal him not to be anxious, then smiled and looked at the old man in front of him and spoke again:
"So, you are also a minister in the Rosna Empire?"
The old man pursed his cracked lips and nodded stiffly. He could tell that these people seemed to be looking for someone.
"Very good, then what is your position?"
The old man stammered for a long time, then trembled and said, "Historian, I am a historian who records history..."
Historian!?
Everyone looked stunned, and Cheng Shi even grinned.
You see, this is fate. It constantly creates detours, but it always gives people surprises when they are at the end of their rope.
He looked at the old man with a complicated expression and smiled even more happily.
"Then I can probably guess why you stayed, Mr. Historian. This teleportation array that has been passed down since the Age of Life is probably not used by many people in the entire empire. Or, in other words, few people know how to destroy it...
