Chapter 301
Jing Ke smiled and said, "You must also have moments when you want to drink alone under the moon and enjoy yourselves to the fullest, right?"
"I've never drunk alcohol, but I really like the moon because it's so beautiful!"
The little one looked up at the full moon, its clear, bright eyes reflecting the moonlight.
Wuming reached out and patted the little guy's head. "Yes, the moon is so beautiful. Shall I teach you a few poems?"
Looking at the little guy reminded him of the First Emperor when he was young.
She was so innocent and adorable, and he tirelessly instilled a great deal of knowledge in her.
What is poetry?
The little guy looked completely bewildered.
The nameless man replied, "A beautiful kind of writing can etch ordinary scenes forever into people's hearts, turning them into the most beautiful dreams."
What is writing?
The little guy was even more confused.
The farmers standing nearby were all puzzled.
The anonymous man patiently explained, "These symbols and patterns record cultural heritage, letting you know who you are, where you are, and who your parents are."
What are "baba" and "mama"?
"Your parents who gave you life and raised you."
What are parents?
A series of questions and answers drew the attention of the previously indifferent Chaldea members, who all gathered around.
I've already realized something's very wrong.
Even the most ignorant person should know about their parents.
Why don't they even know about the parents who gave birth to her and raised her?
The nameless man continued, "Then do you know who gave birth to you, and who taught you how to dress and eat?"
"Why do we need to know this? After we are born, we are raised by people who have no jobs, who teach us how to work and praise His Majesty the Emperor for the happy and peaceful life he has given us."
The little guy's innocent answer deeply shocked everyone.
It's obvious.
In this Lostbelt, ordinary people have absolutely no access to writing or books!
Mordred couldn't help but exclaim angrily, "The people of this world have all had their wings of knowledge robbed, and have been wantonly enslaved and locked in the cage of illiteracy!"
"Yes, it's infuriating!" Da Vinci was equally unable to accept it.
As an all-around genius, her greatest joy is imparting knowledge, beauty, and the enjoyment of life to everyone.
But in this Lostbelt...
The First Emperor directly severed the transmission of culture, leaving people forever in ignorance!
How is this different from raising livestock in captivity?
The audience, who had been wildly worshipping and praising the First Emperor, suddenly felt a chill run down their spines.
[Holy crap, isn't this just a Qin Dynasty version of Cyberpunk 2077?]
[The Book Burning, scholars should be buried alive... Good heavens, could this be the true meaning of burning books and burying scholars alive?]
[This is terrifying! They've severed the transmission of written language, plunging everyone into ignorance!]
[The Utopia of the Qin Dynasty? The socialization of children? People enjoying the bliss of ignorance?]
[No wonder Nameless wants to end the Lostbelt... This is clearly severing humanity's future!]
At the entrance of the farmers' market.
Cú Chulainn watched speechlessly as the two vengeful Heroic Spirit, who were once enemies, happened to pass by and started watching a video with him.
Are you guys really that bored?
The key point is that he was also afraid that the two of them would fight and destroy Fuyuki City, so he had to patiently stay with them.
Gilgamesh, upon seeing the scene in the video, couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Hahaha, the First Emperor actually wanted me to watch this with him, wanting to show off wantonly. He's been slapped in the face now, hasn't he?"
After the video of <Absolute Demonic Battlefront> was uploaded, the other party insisted on having it played publicly as well.
They want to Public Execution his Black History.
As a result, he performed exceptionally well in the Singularity, turning the Public Execution into a complete show of bravado.
All the Heroic Spirit present were incredibly envious, feeling extremely jealous.
After the First Emperor's video was uploaded, the other party also wanted to show off like him.
And the result?
Tsk, I am still the king, you can't compare to me at all!
"What are you laughing at? Haven't you already exposed enough of your past Black History?" Heracles sneered.
What's there to be proud of?
Before the Singularity, there were two Black History exposed: Unlimited Blade Works and Oath Under the Snow.
"Heh, what's the difference between the First Emperor stripping everyone of their intelligence in the Lostbelt and raising wild beasts?" Gilgamesh retorted.
"There really is no difference."
Heracles had no choice but to nod in agreement.
The biggest difference between humans and wild animals lies in the transmission of civilization.
Wisdom is passed down from generation to generation through books and words, ensuring a better future for future generations.
However, the complete severing of cultural heritage within the Lostbelt signifies that humanity's future will be forever fixed!
Even the most magnificent Space Great Wall or the Epang Palace warships cannot inspire worship or faith in the other side.
Are you willing to be illiterate, work like a slave every day, and have no cultural or recreational enjoyment whatsoever?
Consensus reached!
Cú Chulainn, seeing the two who shared the same opinion, couldn't help but mutter, "If we're talking about learning, Rune Script are just too difficult..."
Back then, he was relentlessly pressured by Scathach to learn runes.
It was countless times more difficult than what high school students face today.
How could I possibly learn anything from that?
So, Cú Chulainn escaped...
He fled all the way to Fuyuki City in the Dragon Kingdom, where he began to live under an assumed name as an ordinary Fishmonger Qiang.
Learning is impossible; I'll never learn in this lifetime!
Then.
Cú Chulainn turned his head and suddenly saw a news report playing on the screen opposite him.
[The Queen of the Shadow Realm plans to visit Fuyuki City in the Dragon Kingdom!]
???
Cú Chulainn was stunned for a moment.
Don't come any closer!!!!
Teacher, they've already fled to Fuyuki City, and you still want to chase after them to teach them?
Wait, I'm going to defect to the First Emperor and become an ignorant and incompetent soldier!
While he was thinking about these things.
In the video.
Wuming sighed softly, "Indeed, he has gone astray and must be corrected!"
They still held onto a sliver of hope for Ying Zheng.
Unfortunately, the previous questions and answers with the villagers had completely fallen through.
The First Emperor, who once aspired to continue the legacy of the sages, has now become a ruthless and cold-blooded King of the Lostbelt oppresses all living beings!
"Attention! High-energy reaction ahead!"
Da Vinci watched the distance warily.
During the instrument's measurement, an extremely astonishing magical fluctuation was transmitted from the front, so magnificent as to be unimaginable.
A colossal, all-encompassing creation crashed down from the sky.
Genuine mechanical creations.
Mordred exclaimed in surprise, "What on earth is this thing?"
"Be careful! It possesses terrifying magical energy fluctuations, surpassing even those of a dragon!" Da Vinci exclaimed in shock.
Even though it's only about three meters, the terrifying parameter fluctuations are incredibly strong, to an unimaginable degree.
"Haha, a mere mechanical doll? Watch me take it down!"
Mordred laughed and charged forward without hesitation.
His weapon suddenly emitted a blood-red beam of light, and he unleashed his ultimate move without hesitation.
Since the opponent is said to be powerful, then start with a powerful move to show respect.
Mordred swung the crimson beam of light, unleashing a ferocious attack. "This is the evil sword that destroyed my Father King— "
[Clarent Blood Arthur (Clarent BloodArthur)!]
A dazzling, crimson beam of light suddenly struck the opponent.
It was as if a small mushroom cloud had risen from the spot, completely destroying the surrounding farmland.
Click, click!
That mechanical construct had been completely destroyed.
Mordred burst into laughter. "That's all? It shattered in an instant. It's far too weak!"
"Be careful, you've only destroyed its outer shell—it can be used as clothing!" Da Vinci warned.
After the mechanical creation shattered, a very fitting creature emerged from it.
It had the upper body of a human, but four arms, each holding a spear.
Its lower body was that of a horse.
A genuine centaur.
Despite Mordred's ultimate attack earlier, he didn't suffer the slightest damage!
"Incredible! This guy possesses power that is simply beyond comprehension!"
Da Vinci grew increasingly astonished and uncertain. "Its power far surpasses that of ordinary Heroic Spirit, reaching the level of a god!"
"If it possessed an equally enormous body, it could even rival the Humanity's Evil we encountered before!"
An unimaginably terrifying enemy.
The centaur roared deafeningly, "Enemy confirmed! Battle begins!"
Its massive form suddenly transformed into lightning, wielding numerous weapons, and crashed down upon the nearest Xiao Mo.
Under this bombardment, Mordred swung his Noble Phantasm in an attempt to defend himself, but felt a terrifying, imposing force, as large as a mountain, assail him.
Her petite body coughed up blood on the spot and flew through the air.
