Chapter 139 The Secret of the North
Chapter 139 The Secret of the North
Things in the North are always so bad.
The last resting place of the dragons driven out by the ancient hero Abeth Grande was the North.
This has resulted in many primitive and barbaric habits remaining in the North from the days of the Cult of the Dragon.
When the Council of Sages established the Republic of All Races, the last territory to be expanded was the North due to distance.
This has resulted in the North's morality and laws being in a somewhat primitive state.
The construction of the northern border by the first and second dynasties can be compared to a certain period of history of Ireland in England - to the extent that even the Ottoman Sultan cried.
If we hadn't solved the dragon disaster and formed a superficial unity, and if we couldn't bring out any foreign forces, we would have really had the attitude of withholding even the food that was sent to us.
This has led to some disunity between the North and Central China. To some extent, they believe more that the alien species in the Eastern Wilderness will make peace with them (in fact, such a thing has happened at one point), and are unwilling to believe their compatriots in Central China - they have cleverly awakened a vague national consciousness before their racial consciousness has awakened.
Afterwards, the North was taken away by the devil through a contract, and used as a battlefield, becoming embroiled in a thousand-year bloody war between demons and devils.
However, the sad truth is that the North’s epic history of “resistance” and “independence and liberation” is also a joke.
All living beings do work hard, but the people above do not treat them as human beings.
If those in power had not served the devil and the demons as dogs, the mission of fighting and continuing the free will would not have fallen on religious organizations like the Covenant of the Abyss.
Of course, the roundabout way those in power use to save the country is still of some use.
Due to their stupidity and poor execution, the devil's plan to expand his territory and gain more souls was not executed perfectly.
In the end, they were defeated by the demons' attacks and had to shorten the 666-year contract to 333 years in order to avoid spending more troops to maintain the border of the bloody battle.
All this is not because the superiors have successfully protected their souls and the souls of the people of their country, but because they have the good fortune to continue the bad habits of the material world - eating from both ends.
Although all the forces, big and small, have joined the devil's side in the contract, they are still flirting with the devil.
However, the key to magic is not something that mortals in the material plane can understand.
The power of demons is like the loan sharking offered to you by an elegant and cunning businessman, while the power of devils is like the psychopathic murderer in the chaotic sea of corpses and blood;
The result of trying to have the best of both worlds is like a watermelon farmer who finds out halfway through planting watermelons that what he is planting is not watermelons, but a hybrid with some durian genes.
Unfortunately, the stomach is neither filled with the sweet thirst-quenching taste of watermelon nor the exotic flavor of durian, but is instead filled with stinky and bad water.
Therefore, the devils who found themselves unable to obtain the appropriate souls as planned withdrew, and after losing the qualification to become the battlefield of the bloody battle, the demons immediately abandoned the North.
This is the truth behind the "Glorious Revolution" in which the North returned to the material plane.
But, with the devil's temperament, how could he allow himself to be deceived without any reaction?
As the old contract of 666 was reduced to a new contract of 333, a new letter of replacement of liability was issued to every notable family in the North.
And this thing is the real reason why the North is still in chaos even though it has returned to the material plane for a long time.
----------
The letters of replacement of responsibility were issued to the families that could be considered as aristocratic and powerful families in the North.
The most critical pieces of information hidden in those lengthy contracts are as follows:
First, all the contents of this contract will be passed down in the form of blood magic among the descendants of all the creatures who received this contract. Receiving it is deemed to have read and agreed to the entire contract;
Second, this contract stipulates that only those who receive the contract can become the highest-level leaders of the northern countries;
Third, there are two supplements to Article 2. If Article 2 cannot be implemented, then any other party who has signed the contract has the responsibility and obligation to help Article 2 to be implemented; if someone wants to implement Article 2, then any other party who has signed the contract has no responsibility and obligation to prevent Article 2 from being implemented;
Fourth, when the three ancient disasters of dragons, giants, and demons reappear in the North, the devils have the right to re-enter the North until the ancient disasters disappear again.
Of course, these items are hidden in the lengthy entries and are not as clear and obvious as they are now.
Simply put, through Article 1, this contract creates a continuous stream of obligations.
It's even more continuous than a mouse with a name beginning with the letter M trying to extend its copyright by all means.
Through the second article, the devils completely denied the saying that kings, princes, generals and ministers are of different species.
Because the superior ones can only come from the group of people that the devils favored at the beginning and their descendants.
In reality, even if there are talented people in every generation, if people knew that the people in power can only come from the Wang family of Langya, the Xiao family of Lanling, the Chen family of Yingchuan, the Yang family of Hongnong, the Li family of Longxi...
I wonder how many striving boys will appear and chant [Wait until autumn comes on September 8th, when my flower blooms all other flowers will die], trying to kill the “children of the five surnames”.
But fortunately, these things are unknown, secret, and dark.
On the one hand, the "glorious revolution" to return to the material roof made people so excited and forgetful that almost everyone who received the liability replacement letter did not read the contents of the contract;
And how could the future generations have the energy to look through the waste papers signed by old Deng?
On the other hand, with the devils' sophisticated techniques in contracts, the force used to force the contractors to execute the contract is too subtle and secretive.
Therefore, not only were the people unaware of the existence of this contract, even the princes and nobles themselves did not know much about it.
After returning to the material plane, because the contractors' forced execution and forced land were not stopped, rumors spread that the devils were tempting the North to split.
In fact, the devils are the ones behind the scenes, but it is always the human heart that induces division...
The effect of a contract is that it makes people's thinking unstoppable, just like a car without brakes. If you don't step on the accelerator, perhaps that future will never come.
The third article is a guarantee for the second article. As the contract spreads more and more widely with the spread of bloodline, the stability of the second article will become higher and higher.
Besides that, the contractor must be helped to ascend to the throne and other contractors cannot be prevented from ascending to the throne. Such shameless conditions are similar to an edict of the Enfeoffment Order, which will only make the North more and more divided and confronted.
The fourth is the devils' last plan. When the ancient disaster comes, the devils will return to the North. Faced with the torn apart North, the devils, who have already suffered from the stupid tricks of the superiors, will they allow themselves to be deceived like last time?
