Don't Confiscate My Citizenship Chapter 770

Chapter 770 Lan Qi may begin to understand Black Sun

Vehicles pass through the road paved with bluestones. The low buildings on both sides of the street are bustling with activity. Human residents are here day and night. Occasionally, there are demons passing through. The downtown area is always brightly lit.

After a long journey, they finally arrived at their accommodation tonight, the most luxurious Snow Bear Palace Hotel in the city-state.

"The most eye-catching building in Little Rock is the Snow Bear Palace. It's a shame that we didn't pass through Little Rock when Hyperion and I went from the Demon Realm to the Paulant Empire last time. I've long wanted to take you on a tour. A trip to this snowy city-state.”

Sigre introduced Talia enthusiastically and led her forward quickly.

The Snow Bear Hotel looks like a majestic palace.

Two huge white bear statues in front of the door are like loyal guards, guarding this magnificent building.

"Sigre, walk slowly, I won't get lost."

Thalia followed Sigre and said softly.

Sigre's treatment made Thalia feel itchy, as if she really had a daughter.

If Hyperion was by her side, Thalia would feel that her magical life was complete.

"Although Kaliela is old, he is still very useful and will not get lost alone."

After paying the driver, Lan Qi spoke to Sigre and Talia.

The two people in front looked back at him without speaking.

"you really."

Thalia didn't even know what to say about Lan Qi.

This is the reason why she has always been Lan Qi's teacher but never thought of him as her son.

A traitor who only thinks about fighting against his master all day long is not a good boy for his mother at all.

"Calliera has a good temper and won't care if you talk like this. If it were a female demon with a bad temper, she would probably have knocked you down by now."

Sigre sighed.

After saying that, she turned back, looked around in the direction, and took Kaliela towards the hotel again.

Pushing open the heavy oak door, warm lights and comfortable heating hit your face, instantly dispelling the chill of the outside world.

In the center of the lobby stands a magic fireplace unique to the Land of Eternal Night. The orange-red flame dances happily in the furnace, making the entire hall colorful.

Sigre went to the counter to register alone and checked in for the three of them.

“It's still an apartment-style suite.”

Sigre handed the key card to Lan Qi and Talia.

She and Lan Qi lived like this last time, with multiple independent bedrooms and a shared living room.

The pope is surprisingly poor and has almost no personal money, but she has saved a lot of money over the years, so it is not a problem to provide for the three of them to enjoy themselves for these twenty days.

Anyway, after leaving the shadow world, the currency in this world is useless. Just treat her as a rich woman and spend her money.

"I'm obviously the employer, but I'm asking you to spend money. I'm so sorry."

Lan Qi took the key card and preached.

"Then how about you help me carry the box up. I'll buy some delicacies and ingredients from Gretel Castle. It won't be a loss if I spend some money to switch from you to become the Pope."

Sigre handed the suitcase to Lan Qi and teased.

"no problem."

Lanci responded with a good-natured smile.

He realized that after so many years, Sigre no longer regarded herself as a noble lord, and she would only take it calmly.

Sigre stepped out of the hotel lobby and noticed that Lan Qi was also following her.

"Why, do you have something else you want to tell me?"

She tilted her head and asked with interest.

Lan Qi's pace was leisurely and comfortable, and he seemed to have no intention of walking with her. He just wanted to take this opportunity to take a casual walk and chat, and explain some things by the way.

"Remember to buy more food."

Lan Qi covered her mouth with her hand and whispered.

"How much exactly?"

Sigre took out a small notebook from her pocket, jotted down a few entries and then stopped, raising her eyes to look at Lan Qi, waiting for his answer.

"Just a week's worth for both of us."

Lan Qi thought about it and decided.

"no problem."

Sigre didn't ask any further questions. She took the note down and took it back again.

"I'll be back within half an hour. I won't keep you hungry for too long."

She waved her hand and walked out of the glass door of the Snow Bear Hotel lobby.

Lan Qi watched Sigre leave with a smile, turned around, and walked towards Thalia, who was sitting on the sofa on the side of the lobby on the first floor of the hotel, waiting for him.

"Is it okay to let the kid go out alone?"

Thalia looked up at Ranchi with a worried expression.

She probably shouldn't be too worried, but just like Hyperion when they first met, she has a hard time letting go.

He wished he could keep the child in his sight at all times and protect Sigre.

"Don't worry, she has been very strong since she was eleven years old, and I don't know what her level is now. Let's not talk about the city-state's protective barrier. There should be no one in Little Rock who can fight her."

Lanci picked up Thalia's suitcase and answered.

"Well, let's go upstairs."

Talia was very satisfied with Lanqi's boyfriend-like habits. She didn't have to think about anything when she stayed with him.

It was clear that Lan Qi would not help her carry anything before she went to the Northern Continent.

"Just tell me that when we were in Nanwantina, when I asked you to treat me to dinner, you would only give me a cold look. How dare I help you carry the box."

Lan Qi reviewed it with her.

"That's true. I'm sorry. I won't do that to you again."

Thalia thought for a moment, smiled slightly, and said to him.

Lan Qi was stunned and turned his head to look at her.

He got angry and Thalia apologized?

She seemed to be in a very good mood today, and she even changed her face and showed a smile.

"I'm Calliera. Isn't it normal for Calliera to be gentle?"

Thalia preached matter-of-factly.

She has fallen in love with Kaliela's identity.

She also wants to become a great demon like Kaliela.

"After you put on the veil of falling from heaven and became Kaliela, only your appearance changed into her, but you are both very beautiful, so it's like you haven't changed."

Lanci raised his doubts.

Although Thalia has more skin again.

But he thought it was an invalid skin.

"You're saying there's no change in me, right? I won't argue with you, just because you really think I look good every time."

Thalia snorted softly and walked forward.

"You today..."

Lan Qi couldn't understand.

If Thalia responds like this, it really seems a bit like Kaliela's demeanor as the leader of the demon world.

The two of them walked past the counter toward the magic energy elevator.

Lan Qi looked around and took a brief look at all the employees he could see in the lobby.

"What's wrong?"

Thalia sensed that Ranch's behavior was unusual.

"...In the past, Little Rock City stood at the southernmost tip of the Land of Evernight. It was like winter all year round, and the vast land was covered with bright white snow. It was a community dominated by orcs, full of primitive and rough beauty, and integrated with human city-states. of modernity.”

Lan Qi told her, stopped and held his chin in thought.

In addition to doubts, his brows gradually became filled with memories. Among the six city-states along the way, Little Rock is the southernmost independent city-state in the Land of Evernight and the closest to the Polante Empire. The relationship between orcs and humans is relatively normal, there are frequent trade exchanges, and it is deeply immersed in human culture.

As you go deeper into the Land of Eternal Night, the environment will become increasingly harsh, until in the last city-state, you will almost never encounter humans in the city, and even demons will appear.

"Yes, Little Rock is an orc city-state. Why are all the people we see now humans and bear-men?"

Thalia was also aware of the blind spots.

She finally understood why Lan Qi said it was a bit against the rules when he first entered the city and waited for the bus.

Not a single cute bear to be seen.

Forget it in the outskirts of the city-state, there was still no sign of the Bears all the way to the central city. Even the Snow Bear Hotel, which the Bears were proud of, had no Bears employees.

"I'll ask."

Lanci said to Thalia, and after Thalia nodded, they changed direction together.

Go to the hotel lobby counter.

There stood a young woman in uniform, sorting documents attentively.

The approach of the two distinguished guests caught her attention.

"Good evening, sir, madam, may I help you?"

The lady at the counter raised her head and smiled professionally.

"I would like to ask, why don't we seem to see any of the bear tribe in this city?"

Lan Qi asked thoughtfully.

The smile of the counter lady gradually solidified until a trace of compassion flashed in her eyes.

She hesitated for a moment, as if considering how to speak.

"gentlemen."

She took a deep breath and said slowly,

"The bear tribe...has been extinct a long time ago."

When Lan Qi heard the news, he seemed to have been hit in the head.

"how could be?"

He looked at the lady at the counter and asked, his heart almost being held by a pair of invisible hands.

"Six years ago, the Horning Empire and the Blood Tribe launched a general attack on Little Rock. The Ursine warriors led by Lord Argom resisted to the death and would never betray their allies. The price in exchange was that after the city-state was breached, it was attacked by the invaders. The massacre, whether they were warriors or civilians of the Ursine Tribe, were all punished by the Vampire Tribe with their bellies flayed and hung on the city wall to deter other Orc city-states..."

The lady at the counter told Lan Qi the history of six years ago.

Maybe only people who haven't been to Little Rock in many years don't know these things.

The closer people are to the orc city-state, the more understanding they will feel when they come to this city-state where there are no bear-men after the war.

Hanging on the city wall, enduring the pain of torture but unable to die, until the blood and intestines drained away, and then a new bear was hung up, and no bear was spared.

Facing the counter, Lan Qi was silent for a long time.

A deep sadness came over him, and he felt his throat tighten.

What did the Bear Man do wrong?

Is it wrong to just resist the vampires?

"So, those dead Ursines...where do they rest?"

Lan Qi's voice trembled slightly.

"Behind the original rock and sanctuary temple in the center of the city, there is a cemetery specially established for the Ursines. There are many unidentified Ursine corpses buried there. The Pope personally carved tombstones for them, which is also a symbol of mourning and mourning. A place where I miss them.”

The lady at the counter pointed in the direction of the north of the city and whispered.

It was hard for her to forget that that night, the Pope was like a madman, carving his hands with blood, and crying with guilt while building a tomb for the bears.

"Thank you."

Lan Qi thanked the receptionist and quickly walked out of the hotel.

Thalia followed him with unconcealed concern.

The cold wind mixed with snowflakes hit his face, but he didn't care.

There was only one direction for his steps - to go to the cemetery.

Through the increasingly quiet streets.

Ranch came to Little Rock Memorial Park.

In the dark night, a vast white cemetery appeared in front of us.

Countless simple tombstones stand in the white snow, like silent sentinels, guarding the eternal rest of the deceased.

Lan Qi slowly walked into the cemetery, and a biting chill hit him.

His eyes swept over the wordless monument, imagining the appearance of those dead bears.

The snowflakes fell heavier and heavier, and soon they piled up on the shoulders of Lan Qi's coat.

He was like a frozen sculpture, standing motionless in front of the cemetery, letting the cold snowflakes cover his body.

"Sure enough, the vampires even destroyed the most important temples and statues of the bears."

He remembered that this was where the temple once stood.

The temple behind now should have been rebuilt by humans.

Silent, thinking about those years that can never come back.

He finally figured out why in history Hei Riqing was able to break through the blockade and go to the Demon Realm for support when the vampires were plotting to cut off the Land of Eternal Night.

If it weren't for the desperate resistance of these orc allies, which delayed the vampire's offensive for several days, Hei Riqing would never have had this opportunity.

Thalia couldn't tell what Lan Qi was thinking, so she nervously grabbed the sleeves of his coat and stared at him.

But she felt that Lan Qi was shaken for the first time.

He may be thinking, is the current peace really fair?

Or is this really the ending that Black Sun Lanclos wants?

The mission information has changed at this moment.

[Task Objective 2: Understand the state of mind of Lancross of the Black Sun: 2.71%. (Unfinished)]

The moment Thalia accidentally noticed it, a very bad premonition arose in Thalia's heart.

Understanding Black Sun.

Will the end point of understanding the Black Sun be to become the Black Sun?

if.

If the real history is that Lanclos of the Black Sun defeated the Vampires by luck, the Vampires also chose to surrender, which is very different from the shadow world projection line they are in now.

This beautiful shadow world is not an illusion, nor is it a victory route uniquely created by Lan Qi. Peace has truly come to history.

There is a force that makes the shadow world return to the historical line and move in an unshakable direction.

Thalia believed that Lord Black Sun was a kind person. It could be seen from Kaliela's video recording that even though his eyes were no longer cloudy like those of a young man, his tears were always clear.

Peace in the face of this compromise.

Lanclos of the Black Sun no longer intends to make any more sacrifices.

Ready to sleep quietly and alone.

But when he was about to die, he received a farewell letter from the fallen Kaliela.

Decided to finally embark on the road to revisit the old place.

How would Hei Riqing feel when he saw this along the way?

"Lan Qi, don't be confused. When you are hesitant, just listen to me."

Thalia raised her hand and touched Lanqi's cold cheek, trying to give him some warmth.

But the tips of his hair were wet with snow, and the green pupils beneath them could not be seen clearly.

She believed that Lan Qi had a flawless heart, a glass-like heart that seemed not to be made of flesh and blood, and that was the reason why he had always been able to remain calm, unlike humans.

Although Inoan's death may have opened a crack in it, Kelanqi's excellent qualities have never changed since then.

"Don't worry, Master."

Lanci shook his head and took Thalia's warm hands away from his face.

He looked at the frowning Thalia, her expression was still as natural as before, and he couldn't see any difference.
