Chapter 783: Legends Of The Eternal Heroes (III)
After listening to Long Tianyin’s words, many people were moved. Long Xingyu nodded multiple times and said, “I agree with the Lord Long. We shouldn’t be hasty. There are too many unpredictable dangers. And I also don’t think we can easily use the power of Eternal Heroes.”
The statement of the two Sealed Divine Knights immediately plunged everyone into contemplation. Long Tianyin and Long Xingyu, father and son, had high status in the Knight Temple and had great influences. Although Yang Haohan used to be the leader of the Temple Alliance, he sat at the alliance headquarters after all, while the Knight Temple Yu Longguan side had always been commanded by Long Tianyin and his son. With their words, members of other temples would take it into full consideration.
Li Zhengzhi said, “I think this is feasible. Another limitation of the original Reincarnation Scroll was that the strong undead who were reincarnated by the forbidden spell recorded on the Reincarnation Scroll could only survive for a thousand years. Today, more than 6,000 years have passed. The masters of each generation of the six temples will actually greet these Eternal Heroes. We have received news from them that Eternal Heroes prolong the lives of their undead by letting themselves sleep. However, about 40 years ago, when they last heard the news, they said that their time was running out. In another 50 years at the most, they will be asleep forever. They will never wake up again. At that time, they suggested that if the alliance needed it, they would be willing to pay the last bit of residual heat for the alliance before falling asleep forever. In other words, even if we do not use the power of the Eternal Heroes, they will live for ten years at most. Therefore, I agree with the suggestion of Lord Yang. Eternal Heroes can be trusted. As for how to use their power, I believe that we can always find a way to cover up our little secret. There are not many of them. I believe that these Eternal Heroes can play a role in turning things around on the battlefield.”
“I still feel skeptical,” Ling Xiao said, who, as the master of the Priest Temple, hated the undead the most. “I agree with Lao Yang, but I don’t approve of using their power,” he said. “The undead are the undead. Think about how the undead survive. They need the power of darkness to deal with corpses, darkness and all the aura of evil. Although these Eternal Heroes are our ancestors and have made great contributions to mankind, they have been dead for thousands of years. What the two Lords said was correct, that if something goes wrong, it is likely to be irrevocable for the Union.”
Listening to Ling Xiao, Yang Haohan frowned. He knew that his proposal was bound to cause controversy, but he did not expect that the controversy would be so fierce.
Ling Xiao’s opposition was still in his expectation, but the strong opposition of Long Tianyin and Long Xingyu was beyond his expectation. Originally, he thought that even if Long Tianyin and his son did not support it, they would not object the idea so much. But who would have thought that they were the first to speak out against it.
The opinions of Long Tianyin and Long Xingyu were very important because they were relatives of Long Haochen, and their attitude was likely to affect Long Haochen, who was the president of the Federation.
Perhaps, the influence of Long Haochen in the whole Union could not be compared with the veteran masters of the six temples. However, in today’s meeting, he could at least affect all the members of the Light Dawn Demon Hunter group! In the Light Dawn Demon Hunter group, in addition to Long Haochen being the president of the Federation, there were three vice chairmen, Caier, Chen Ying’er, and Wang Yuanyuan. They might not enjoy great prestige, but if the vote method was adopted finally, the group would had nearly one third of all the votes. Therefore, it was very important whether Long Haochen supported this proposal or not.
Yang Haoyu, the Holy Knight of Starry Sky, suddenly opened his mouth. With a slight cough, he immediately attracted everyone’s attention. As the strongest man in the alliance, his attitude was also very important.
“Whether this is right or wrong, good or bad, none of us can come to a conclusion at the moment. Negotiation is a good thing. However, I must remind you that this is no longer the time of the Temple Alliance, but the Temple Federation. Now that it is under discussion, aren’t you going a little too far without listening to what chairman has to say?”
Instead of directly supporting Yang Haohan or expressing his opinion, Yang Haoyu maintained Long Haochen’s dignity as president of the Federation. In fact, he didn’t understand what happened to Long Haochen today. Long Haochen had always been smart and always able to control the situation. Today’s meeting was so important, as the president of the Federation, how could he be so silent and just listened to everyone quarrelling?
After listening to Yang Haoyu’s words, Yang Haohan nodded and said, “That’s what I mean. Let’s listen to the chairman’s opinion first.”
Long Tianyin did not react. In his mind, Long Haochen was also his grandson, and he really opposed Yang Haohan’s proposal from the bottom of his heart, otherwise he would not have refuted it immediately regardless of their close relationship.
Long Xingyu frowned slightly, but it didn’t show what he was actually thinking. And at the same time, everyone’s eyes focused on Long Haochen.
Long Haochen smiled calmly and said, “Now that a new federation has been established. All issue will eventually be decided by everyone. The final vote will represent the wishes of the vast majority of the people. However, before more people declare their position and vote, I would like to tell you a story. Lord Yang, do you have the name of the maker of the Reincarnation Scroll you just mentioned?”
Yang Haohan was stupefied for a moment. He didn’t expect Long Haochen to ask such a question. He subconsciously shook his head and said: “It’s not recorded in the classics, but it just says that this Reincarnation Scroll may have been made by the necromancer who caused the destruction of life on the mainland. But I don’t know why it survived. It could also be the booty gained when the brilliant Vatican defeated him.”
Long Haochen nodded and said, “So, who knows the name of this necromancer?”
Long Tianyin frowned slightly and said, “Chairman, there seems to be no point in asking this. Moreover, the original necromancers were before the advent of the dark age. More than 6500 years ago. There are few records about him, but it is only certain that there is such a powerful and evil necromancer. No more details about his specific situation.”
Long Haochen said, “So no one knows? Then, I’ll tell you.”
As he spoke, he stood up slowly and as his body flashed a little, he came to the front from behind the table. A group of strong men that sat on the rostrum were surprised to find that it was at that moment that Long Haochen was shuttling through space. Visually, it seemed like he was going straight through the table. But in fact, it was similar to the ability to transfer in an instant.
His strength had improved a lot! Yang Haoyu could not help but marveled secretly inside. Moreover, he realized that he could not see through the extent of Long Haochen’s cultivation.
Standing in front of the rostrum, Long Haochen said, “The necromancer who made the Reincarnation Scroll is Electrolux. He was the one who brought great disasters to our mankind before the advent of the dark age. He gave himself a nickname, the Deathly Hallows, the scourge of the undead, Electrolux. If it were not for his existence, the disaster he had caused to mankind wouldn’t have happened. Perhaps, in the initial fight against the devils, we would not have suffered such a catastrophe, nor would we have the dark ages of more than 6,000 years.”
“However, necromancers are originally human beings. I’ve never heard of any other creature directly progressing a necromancer, right? so why did he lay his hands on human beings and cause the destruction of their lives?”
Ling Xiao, the master of the Priest Temple, said subconsciously, “This kind of necromancer must be evil by nature and aims to destroy the world.”
Long Haochen smiled. “Lord Ling, that is a wrong guess. If I tell you here that the necromancer, who had brought disaster to mankind has a light attribute himself and all his undead magic is also based on the light attribute, will you believe it?”
“That’s not possible.” Long Tianyin, Long Xingyu, Ling Xiao, and even brothers Yang Haoyu and Yang Haohan said in unison. They were all representatives of the light domain.
Long Haochen shook his head and said, “No. I’m telling the truth. Because this necromancer used to be not only a light wizard, but also a son of light like me.”
As soon as this remark came out, the whole audience was in an uproar. For a moment, everyone looked at Long Haochen as if they were looking at a lunatic. Only the people of Light Dawn Demon Hunter group remained calm.
Long Tianyin stood up and said angrily, “Long Haochen, do you know what you are talking about? Are you defending the necromancer and even fabricate this impossible reason?”
Long Haochen looked at Long Tianyin with burning eyes and refused to give way.
“Lord Long, please don’t be so loud and sit down first. Since I am the president of the Federation, I hope that no one will interrupt me from now on before I finish. Otherwise, I will ask that person to get out of here.”
