Chapter 1266: Legend of He Yue
After a long while, Lord Manie finally calmed down and asked in a low voice: "Master Ma, why did you do this?"
"It's me... Did Magne treat you unfairly in any way?"
Not long after Su Bai left, Ma Xiying launched a mutiny. She instigated the wild elves outside to attack the city in some unknown way. While the city guards were guarding the city wall, she went straight to the City Lord's Mansion, intending to end the life of City Lord Manie.
The white-coated doctor sighed and said, "Lord Manie, you and Master Qi should leave here first. I will stop Master Ma."
Although he promised Su Bai not to act rashly, Dr. De Erta couldn't help but lend a hand when Ma Xiying instigated wild elves to attack human cities.
Although Lord Magne is afraid of death and has not achieved much as a Pokémon trainer, his contribution to Daishi Castle as a city lord is unquestionable, otherwise the city would not have developed into what it is today in just a few years.
Dr. De Erta looked at Ma Xiying, his eyes full of doubts: "As an outsider, I shouldn't be involved in the transformation of his city, but Master Ma, I really don't understand why you did such a heinous thing today?"
De Erta could accept that Dazhi City was destroyed by thieves, and he could also accept that Dazhi City was destroyed by a tide of elves and beasts, but when you said that a leader like Ma Xiying, who had a high status in the city, wanted to destroy the city, he really didn't understand. Was he crazy?
Ma Xiying looked up at the doctor in the white coat in front of him and said calmly, "As a fellow researcher, Dr. De, don't you think that Dazhi City today is very distorted?"
Dr. De Erta's expression was slightly tense. "Are you referring to the twisted views that the citizens have about the king and the surrounding elves?"
"This is one of them." Ma Xiying said lightly.
"The second is to destroy one's own foundation in an attempt to expel and control the king."
The Lord of Manie City stopped running, turned around hesitantly, and said, "Master Ma, you misunderstood. I didn't say that I must offend the king. I just hope that it can give us more living space in Dazhi City. You know, the population of Dazhi City is on the rise now. If there is not enough space for expansion, the prices of housing and food will increase. I do this just to make everyone live a better life."
"After all, isn't what the city lord is after those few stinky copper coins?"
"I……"
Ma Xiying shook his head: "Perhaps you have forgotten the agreement you made with Baji when you first inherited the city lord..."
Baji is the lord of the previous generation and a friend of Lord Magne. His philosophy is to create a city that can make everyone happy in this era.
Speaking of this old friend, Lord Manie's expression became a little unnatural, because in addition to being the former city lord, this old friend also had another identity, that is, the son of Master Ma Xiying.
Ma Baji was a man with great leadership charisma. Not only did he revitalize the newly established Dazhi City, he also established good relations with the Yueyue Bear King and nearby elves.
Lord Manie recalled for a moment and whispered, "It is because I remember that I have been vigorously developing the economy of our Dazhi City over the years and trying to catch up with those big cities. Master Ma, haven't you seen all of this?"
Ma Xiying said expressionlessly, "Those who do not adapt to the development of the times will eventually be destroyed. I just accelerated the process. But Lord Magnie, you can rest assured that I will do my best to protect the citizens after you. The future of Dazhi City still needs their efforts."
Master Qi, who had been standing silently by the side, raised the Poké Ball in his hand and said coldly: "After destroying the city and causing large-scale killings, do you think the survivors will help you continue to build new cities?"
"Of course it will."
While speaking, Ma Xiying glanced at the sky.
Master Qi and Lord Manie looked up subconsciously.
It was already dusk in the sky, but at this moment a blood-red sun slowly rose up, casting a red light all over the sky. In contrast with the fires near the city wall, the surrounding area was illuminated in a fiery red.
Ma Xiying said softly: "I have made sufficient preparations before making this move. I wonder if the City Lord and Master Qi have heard of He Yue."
He Yue...
Simply put, the blood moon is a natural phenomenon. In ancient times, most people lacked knowledge and information, so many people would regard this phenomenon as a sign of disaster, but in reality it is not a big deal.
Of course, this is assuming there are no special circumstances.
However, in Dazhi City, in the area governed by the Moon Bear King, there is a legend passed down from generation to generation that the Moon Bear King is kind, because he has sealed all the painful and sad experiences and memories in the moon, and when the bright moon comes, the Bear King will remember those past events. There is no need to feel sad or confused, the kind Bear King will make you forget all the pain and mistakes.
That's how the story goes, but those who actually heard the last part felt that they were doomed.
Because logically, pain must be related to rampage and destruction. You yourself are an emo, so how can you be expected to care about others?
Ma Xiying said calmly: "Many people have misunderstood this ancient story. In fact, just as described in the story, after the bear king bathes in the Heyue, some special changes will occur around his body. This change is not an evolutionary or morphological change, but a kind of appearance that humans cannot explore at present." (In the actual game, you can only get the Heyue Bear after completing the mission)
"When the Moon Bear King is in this state, his own energy magnetic field will spread to the surroundings, causing everyone's painful memories to be sealed in the Heyue. In this way, no one will remember what happened tonight."
"Hehehe..."
Dr. De Erta laughed, and his laughter was filled with helplessness and sighing.
"Memories can be sealed, but can the injuries and the loss of citizens be sealed? Master Ma has done so much just for the position of city lord? If so, then Lord Magne can just abdicate and let someone else take over."
The Lord of Manie seemed to be hesitant to speak. It was obvious that he loved money and desired the power of the Lord of the City. However, if he could use this power to save his life, it might be a good deal.
Ma Xiying shook her head: "Not enough..."
Although they are reluctant to admit it, the profits that Lord Manie has brought to Dazhi City over the years are indeed extremely huge. These benefits have aroused the ambitions of many people. Even if Lord Manie falls, these people will continue to operate, and Dazhi City will still become their world.
"I am old, and after committing such a crime, I am not qualified to take over this position. I will take care of everything and let Manman be the city lord. This is one of the reasons why I brought her from Qingzhu Village. She is the descendant of Baji and she has the ability to inherit the will of Dazhi City."
