Under the gloomy night, the majestic imperial capital stood quietly, like a sleeping giant, everything was silent.

The army was silent, and those eyes were like wolves in the dark night, just dormant, waiting to bite the opponent's throat when they attacked.

"for freedom!"

The girl drew out her long sword, and the blade reached the dark sky.

"for freedom!"

Countless people shouted, and the sound swept away like a tsunami. The dark clouds in the night sky quietly dissipated, and the bright moon and stars were scattered.

The dark imperial capital remained silent.

The nearly 100-meter-high city gate slowly opened, and the army dressed in black armor walked out, and the iron and gold slammed by the impact of the armor was harsh.

It is like a messenger who brings death in the night, mysterious and strange.

It was like a dark swamp, sweeping and engulfing everything.

Darkness and light collided, and in an instant, there was an endless roar, and the magic burst swept through, and the brilliance of the surging magic was brighter than the starlight.

The horses neighed, the soldiers roared, and people kept falling, and the hot blood flowed, soaking the ground, making it darker.

The long sword pierced through the body, and a touch of warmth flowed down the hilt to the palm of the hand, bringing a disgusting smooth touch.

The girl was indifferent, she pulled out a sharp sword and kicked the enemy in front of her away.

She no longer knew how many enemies she had killed, and all she could hear in her ears were the screams and the terrifying sound waves generated by the magic explosion.

The consciousness seems to have left the body, leaving only the instinct to kill all the enemies.

Until the end, even the injury did not have the strength to cry out in pain.

Silent and speechless, everyone seems to have become the purest killing machine, and their feelings have disappeared.

Kill the enemy, or be killed by the enemy.

At the beginning of the morning light, a magnificent glow appeared at the end of the horizon, like a rose immersed in endless years, warm and deep.

The girl leaned on a long sword and stood in the center of the battlefield.

The corpses were all over the place, and the blood had already soaked the ground.

A few strands of hair stuck to the side of his face, blood slowly flowed down his forehead, and blood stains coagulated on his white and dry lips.

She looked around, her eyes drooping, and the expression on her face could not tell whether she was happy or indifferent.

There is no joy in winning a war.

Only numbness.

The dawn winds are cold, and there is still a long way to go before the warm sun bathes the world.

…

In the movie hall, the audience remained silent, still immersed in the shock brought by the opera.

"Night of Faras".

This is one of the most famous operas in the Kolo world, and the main content is about the end of the Faras Empire.

The love and hatred between little people, the people's yearning for freedom, the resistance to brutal rulers, love and beauty, life and death, any element has a profound experience in the opera.

Among them, because there are a lot of magnificent epic scenes in the opera, it is a great test for the opera troupe to present them on the stage.

Therefore, there is such a default rule in opera troupes. Only opera troupes that can perform "Night of Fallas" can be regarded as entering the top level of opera troupes.

The plot of the opera ends after the war in front of the imperial capital, and the story behind it is left to the audience to guess.

Not all stories need a doomed ending.

Moreover, the Faras Empire has been around for a long time. Ordinary people have no way to understand the historical records related to it. At most, it is to discuss with others in their spare time.

Why did the powerful empire of the former Nuoda disintegrate in such a short period of time.

Even if someone deliberately searches for relevant information out of curiosity, they will not get any useful conclusions.

Just when everyone was over because of the opera, the truth was not what they expected - the curtain was not raised, and the performance continued.

"What's going on? I've watched 'Night of Faras' before, and it should be over now."

"I don't know, let's take a look first."

"The Rose Opera Troupe is the opera company that has left the Duchy of Roses the most. They must have reinvented the original script!"

"Hey, that sounds interesting..."

After a brief commotion, the hall soon became quiet, and everyone stared intently at the stage, for fear of missing a key scene.

It is rare to witness an opera troupe modifying an opera script.

However, unlike the eagerly anticipated atmosphere in the hall, the meeting hall of the Council of Elders was rather solemn. Everyone was staring at the projected light curtain image, and many people frowned.

"This should be the promotion ceremony that Mu said earlier, right?"

Wang Gulas frowned, and his voice sounded serious.

"Probably yes." Oxia nodded, "I went to St. Nia a few days ago, and I happened to have free time to watch this opera by the Rose Opera Troupe. At that time, there were no new plots. ."

"Could it be their latest modified meow?" Tasha then said.

As soon as the voice fell, everyone's eyes turned to her.

Tasha couldn't help shrinking her neck, and the feline's habit of being cowardly when it was strong was vividly expressed: "I just said it casually..."

Mu smiled lightly: "Tasha's guess is not unreasonable, everyone should have heard the book of Sherlock Holmes written by the boss, and it also said that any speculation is possible until there is no concrete evidence to get the final result. of."

"Indeed." Oxia nodded, "but the biggest possibility at the moment is the ceremony. Whether it is or not, we can't continue watching here. Jiliana has sent a message that the purpose of the escaped Annihilation Cultist is to go underground. the core of living things."

The expressions of other people became solemn. If there was any change in the underground creatures, the impact would not be to mention the City of Steel, and other city-states would also be affected.

No one can bear the consequences.

"Are you okay?" Mu asked worriedly.

"It's okay, everything is planned." Oxia smiled, stood up and stretched, "It's finally time for me to appear, dancer... Hehe, I really want to see who she really is. "

"Need help?" Mu asked.

"It's okay, just leave it to me." Oxia waved her hand, confident in herself, "You can just keep your position, maybe there are other Annihilation believers hiding in the dark."

The communication was cut off, and Oxia disappeared.

Although I don't know what the ceremony looks like, one thing is certain, the dancer must be responsible for presiding over the ceremony, so that the ceremony can be held normally.

When Oxia walked out of the room, the usual clothes had been changed to the ones for battle. The silver-white light armor and the coat similar to the windbreaker were different from the ordinary gentle state in the Hearthstone Tavern on weekdays. In the cold, there was a kind of sword edge. sharp.

"I'd better go for a while." Mu thought for a while, and decided to go and have a look.

"Well, remember to be careful." Wang Gulas reminded.
