Alien Knights

Chapter 538: Gods and heroes

Using the ability of "Shaping", Todd transformed himself into an ordinary young man, dressed up in disguise, Aurora, walked out of the gate of the royal city, and walked towards the port area.

Walking along the neat and clean streets, although the rebellion three years ago is long gone, hidden cracks and black stains are faintly visible on street corners and stone slabs.

Stopping in front of a scorched black wall covered by creepers, Todd sighed softly, recalling what had happened here.

Grasping her father's hand, Aurora looked at this man who was called the "Holy King" by everyone with a sense of awe and strange gaze.

In her memory, Todd, as a father, has been running and busy since she was born. Most of the time she did not appear in her field of vision. He was more often heard from people’s mouths. name.

The wise, loving and omnipotent holy king, his name is like an ancient god, spreading in the streets and alleys.

But for Aurora, walking with Todd like this, walking on the streets of the city like a father and daughter, is the first time since she was born.

Todd turned around, smiled at Aurora and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to a place first."

Aurora originally thought that her father would take him to the market, pier or seaport in the port area, but what puzzled her was that Todd took her to a cemetery near the port area first.

On a low hill, there is a cemetery surrounded by flowers and green grass. The environment is beautiful, the birds and the flowers are fragrant, and there is no gloom and coldness in ordinary people's impression.

Standing on the top of the hill, Todd looked at the rows of tombstones in front of him, and said to Aurora: "All the people buried here gave their lives for this kingdom and this city."

Aurora blinked: "So, the people here are all good people?"

"Yes, they gave up the family happiness with their families, gave up the right to survive and enjoy themselves, and gave their precious lives for the well-being of others." Todd said softly: "They are not just good people, they are real Hero."

Aurora nodded without understanding, and suddenly asked Todd: "Father, I heard others say that you are the **** of all things. Then, which is greater than the hero or the god?"

Todd knelt down, looked at Aurora's eyes, and said calmly: "If the **** only has power but refuses to take responsibility, then he will only appear humble and insignificant compared to the hero."

Todd touched his daughter's forehead and said with a smile, "Aurora, remember this. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility."

The young Aurora repeated these words repeatedly, her eyes filled with puzzlement.

Todd closed his eyes and shook his head slightly and said, "You are still too young to understand this sentence."

Todd's expressions and movements caused the ignorant Aurora to lower her head and unconsciously pull the corner of the former's clothes.

"Father, if you can, I don't want you to be a hero."

Aurora's words made Todd stunned for a moment, who opened his eyes and asked, "Why?"

Aurora cast her gaze on the tombstones and whispered: "If the hero is going to leave his family and be buried here, then I will never see you..."

Todd laughed blankly, followed him to pat Aurora's head and said, "Things are not as simple as you think. Actually... Forget it, we will talk about this later, and we will stay here long enough. , It's time to leave."

Aurora nodded, grabbed Todd's hand, and left the hills.

When walking down the hill, Aurora saw a gray-haired old couple with a boy of his own age, heading to the cemetery to mourn the dead, and couldn't help but ask: "Father, your family Is there anyone else in there?"

Todd looked into the distance and said softly, "Yes."

"Who is there?"

"There are grandpa, grandma, uncle, uncle..."

Aurora asked confusedly: "Why don't they never come to see Aurora in Twilight? Is it because they don't like me?"

"No, if they see you, they will definitely like you very much." Sadness and longing appeared on Todd's face: "It's just that the place where they live is too far away..."

"Far? Is it farther than Muxicheng to Gubaocheng?"

"It's still far, many, many..."

Aurora raised her head and noticed that Todd's expression was a little strange, and said anxiously: "Father, are you angry? Did I say something wrong?"

Todd shook his head, put Aurolato on his arm, and said with a smile: "I just remembered some things from the past. Your grandma is my mother. Her best dishes are boiled pork slices and deep-fried dishes. Meatballs, every time the dishes are cooked, the dishes in the house are overflowing, and even the neighbors downstairs will knock on the door to beg for food..."

In this way, Aurora spent a whole day in the company of Todd, from the large bazaar with a wide variety of commodities, to the lively beast fences, to the magnificent harbour pier, and the father and daughter wandered most of the time. Port areas.

The bright moon hung high, and Todd returned to the palace holding Aurora, who was tired of playing and fell asleep.

Watching the maid in the palace carefully take Aurora, Deirdre walked slowly to her daughter, looking at her sleeping like an angel, still with a happy smile on her face, and said with satisfaction: "A long time I haven't seen Aurora so happy anymore."

Taking the wet wipes presented by the servants, Todd wiped his face and neck indiscriminately, and said to Deirdre: "Daughter is exhausted today, let her sleep in tomorrow, don't disturb her. "

Deirdre opened his mouth and wanted to say something. After thinking about it, he finally nodded in agreement.

Waved to let all the servants go down, Todd shook his slightly stiff neck, just about to stretch out, the knock on the door made him sit up straight.

Evie walked through the door, first glanced at Todd~lightnovelpub.net~ and then at Deirdre.

Misunderstood the other party's deep meaning, Todd smiled bitterly and said: "It's still early..."

Evie gave Todd a roll of eyes, and said angrily: "Wayne Dunlop came to the palace at noon today and has been waiting for you for most of the day."

Todd frowned and got up from the chair. With Deirdre's help, while putting on his robe, he said to Evie: "He came to me. Did he mention anything about it?"

Evie leaned on the door frame and shook her head and said, "You should know that freak vet. He thinks that only you can understand what he said."

Todd nodded, kissed Deirdre on the cheek, and followed Evie to the main hall of the palace.

Wayne Dunlop sat cross-legged on the side corridor of the King's Hall, concentrating on the calculations and equations, surrounded by a large number of drawings and notes he had brought.

Todd approached him and saw that there were large patches of chalk on the ground. It seemed that Wayne had been here for a long time.

Evie glanced at Todd, shrugged helplessly, and said: "Since he got here, he has been in this state, and he didn't even eat the supper he sent."

Todd sighed and nodded slightly to indicate that he knew.

Evie touched Todd's waist with her hand and smiled: "Come early, you know where to find me..."

After saying this, the Valkyrie walked towards the bedroom without looking back.

Watching the woman's figure disappear into the darkness, Todd carefully bypassed the deduction formulas on the ground, came to Wayne, and asked softly: "You are looking for me?"

Wayne looked up blankly. The moment he saw Todd, his eyes lit up and he shouted: "Your Majesty, regarding the improvement of alien weapons you mentioned earlier, I finally found a solution."
