Chapter 162 Nakraska
Wandering in the world of the dead, the group encountered one missing community after another. Moher would select a soul from these communities and put it into his own earthen jar.
"Why do you catch these souls?"
"To form a symbolic meaning."
Moher explained casually, and continued to move forward with the group.
The world of the dead is really a dilapidated place. When I first saw this desolation, I might have been a little shocked, but now, I just feel that the scene in front of me is so boring.
As the missing communities were defeated one by one, the kingdom of the dead began to become lively.
"How many of these beings do we have to defeat?"
Duo Luo fell to the ground and couldn't help but sigh, "It feels like I can never defeat all of this stuff."
"Yes, after all, it's something that a certain being may have spent tens of thousands of years to create. If it can be eliminated in two or three times, then I have to suspect that person has been slacking off for the past ten thousand years." These things were obviously within Mohe's expectations. "Don't worry, when I destroy it to a certain extent, that guy will definitely come out. Fortunately, I'm not in my prime now, and he may not dare to fight with me. It should be possible to lure it out."
Everyone could see that something illusory was gathering in the palm of Mohe's hand.
"The so-called authority, or symbol, is actually not something particularly confusing. Beings like us, living in the world, will naturally have similar things - Mr. Doro, can you learn it?"
"Is it really okay for me to learn it?"
Moh looked indifferent: "It doesn't matter. After all, it takes a long time to study, whether it is magic, alchemy... If you want to become a symbol, it takes time to polish. The symbol you can have is the symbol of swordsmanship at most. But that doesn't seem to make any sense to you. You and I are not on the same path."
She showed her way of condensing symbols openly, and then looked at Elf and Roland: "You two better think about who will bear this symbol of the undead? What I have to say is - once you bear this symbol, there is no way to leave this world easily. It's okay to leave for a short time, but if you leave for a long time, there will be some problems."
"Moreover, from the perspective of the world of the dead, this symbol can be said to be temporary. After all, I told you that after the goddess created humans, she actually appointed humans as the true dominant race to rule the world. With the true establishment of balance, the world of the dead will gradually dissipate, and this temporary symbol will also gradually dissipate - if you can comprehend the realm of Mr. Duo Luo and me before that, you will have the possibility of embracing eternity. If not, then what you have is only a pseudo-eternity that will eventually dissipate."
Although she said so, the two sisters were still very confused.
To put it bluntly - it is not an exaggeration to describe this as "chance". It is purely a reward from the Demon King to the two of them - to have pseudo-eternity, to have a symbol, and then to have the possibility of reaching true eternity... Although from the tone of the Demon King, it can be roughly felt that she does not think that the two sisters can do such a thing at all, but in any case, this is also a huge gift, a gift that is difficult to describe in words.
Why is she so good to them?
"This is also part of my struggle with the goddess... Although the goddess did not come in person, but in her arms, that thing was able to do such a thing. It is impossible to say that it was not approved by the goddess - are you on my side?"
Moher's question was a bit torture. In theory, from the perspective of the world, the snow elves are undoubtedly part of the demon king's forces, but in fact, for Elf and Roland, they did not really obey Moher's decision. Moher did not intend to force them to obey his will.
"Well~ It doesn't matter. Whether you are loyal to me or to Mr. Doro, it doesn't matter, as long as you are not loyal to the goddess."
She changed the subject herself, and seemed to have no expectations of the two sisters: "In short - I'm not sure whether the goddess knows that we are here, but we assume that she knows, but she doesn't show up in person, which means that she thinks that the things here can make me suffer a loss - it is very dangerous for her to come here in person, after all, Mr. Doro and I might join forces to kill her directly... Well, even I don't know what the situation is for a while, so I can only walk around and see."
"Can I ask you a question, Demon King?"
Roland said suddenly.
Moher stopped and looked at her in surprise. This girl was a little different from Elf. As a snow elf, Elf had no magical talent, so she was a warrior, while her sister Roland was a serious and talented magician. But then again, people usually think that warriors have short hair, but Elf has long hair that reaches her shoulders, while Roland, as a magician, has short hair that reaches her ears. She also has earrings that look like blooming flowers, which makes her look quite elegant.
"What's the problem?"
"You said that the guy who sacrificed the entire tribe and was eventually defeated by you - since ten thousand years have passed..."
Her eyes fell on a thought group that emerged: "This thing doesn't look like it can do anything to you. Since it lost to you, isn't this decision too reckless?"
"Good question." Mohe turned her back and took a step forward -
her left foot, which symbolized moving forward, activated its power. She arrived in front of the thought group, and then grabbed this huge thought group with her small and delicate hands. Mohe was so tiny - this scene was very inconsistent. She looked at the thought group in front of her calmly.
The dark curse spread on this individual, and then the thought group dissipated directly.
"What do you think about this?"
Mohe turned around and asked.
The three of them were puzzled.
"In fact, even our kind-hearted Mr. Duo Luo would subconsciously have such thoughts, right? The undead are not human... such thoughts." Mohe pointed this out.
She took another step forward and returned to the three people: "The meaning of a living thing is completely different at the moment of death. Mr. Doro, you will be angry because you think that the Elf Queen really killed Miss Elf... But in fact, in my view, as long as the undead exist, life still exists. But for you - if I remember correctly, during the adventure, your brave team did not do anything similar to make the undead retreat, right? That is to make the undead disappear."
Doro would certainly not deny this. After all, this is what they had done before.
"Based on this idea, do you think that the dead are very useful?" Moher said mysteriously, "It seems reasonable for the dead to encounter things that the living should not encounter? After all, the dead are dead, their wisdom is not complete, their emotions are not complete, and their feelings are damaged. They cannot be considered real humans. Therefore, even sympathy has its limits. You see, I just destroyed a community of thoughts, and you didn't say anything - maybe many people disappeared from history."
Duo Luo lowered his head and thought for a while: "But for other people, even if these dead are reincarnated as humans, they have no memories of the past and are completely another person - what difference does it make if they have more or less? It is a fact that the person in the past is dead."
"Yes, for things like this, the existence of the dead is actually irrelevant to the world, right? Only beings at our level will pay some attention to this. From the perspective of the goddess, she would want to use the dead to reduce the burden of the world and achieve a balance. This balance itself is not absolute, but only a relative balance. So the dead like this have lost their meaning to the world since they died. It is just something that will dissipate sooner or later."
At this point, her eyes fell back on Roland: "Do you think I am right? Kraska."
Roland looked at Moher in confusion: "Master Demon King, what are you talking about?"
"As a smart snow elf, Roland would not ask me such a question in this situation, Kraska. She will try her best to reduce her presence. I am not a person who can challenge her, and she does not have the courage to ask me questions." Roland
smiled.
Or rather, Kraska smiled: "Ten thousand years have passed, and although your appearance has changed, you are still as high and mighty as ever."
Duo Luo has frowned, and he seems to be ready to take action.
"Don't be impulsive, Mr. Doro. Although you can easily defeat him, this is not a good choice." Moh suppressed Doro and looked at Kraska again. "Back then, you let a lot of power belong to yourself and challenged me. I personally think you were very courageous. What's your situation now? Possessed by such an elf, do you think this can allow you to defeat me?"
"Of course, although this elf is a little stronger than an ant, it definitely does not have the power to fight you. I don't think you will take this body into consideration if you want to take action. I won't do anything to her - I just want to ask you a question."
"Oh? You can tell me."
"How does it feel to be defeated?"
Moh's expression changed at that moment: "I think you will experience it again immediately, Kraska."
Roland's body softened, and something left her body.
