Chapter 215: Journey to the Kingdom of Goa: Putting the past to rest.
In the huge empty room, the village chief's mistress woke up in a strange place.
"I'm not dead...!" She touched her chest. She lost consciousness the moment she was blown up.
Feeling lucky, she walked towards the only light in the room with a smile on her face.
The further she walked, the heavier her steps became, and she could clearly hear many people shouting.
“Iron bars?” She came to the cage-like iron bars, grabbed them and looked out.
Looking at the huge cage made up of countless rooms outside, her consciousness became increasingly blurred.
Gradually forget who you are, what you are, your gender, age and everything else.
All memories will turn into a wisp of white smoke and fly to the center just above the huge cage.
New memories gradually flooded into her mind.
"For...the king..."
"For...to go."
"For the king!"
She repeated it silently three times, and became more and more excited, excited, and crazy the more she repeated it.
Like the other rapeseed villagers who had just come in, they were eager to protect the king in their mouths.
"As long as the king doesn't die, I will live forever!"
This is inside the "soul cage", the kingdom of the soul.
The prisoners who fell under Arthur's sword were unable to escape from their chains.
Never be reborn, fight for him until death.
……
Rapeseed Village, villagers’ refugee camp.
The ground was torn apart, and Arthur stood alone in the center, surrounded by bloody corpses.
He killed all the survivors in the village, leaving no one alive.
"Arthur! Arthur!" In the distance, Gion, who heard the noise from the seaside, quickly rushed over and shouted with a look of panic on his face.
The moment she arrived at the refugee camp, the scene before her made her lose all hope.
Those war survivors who were rescued with great difficulty all died tragically around Arthur.
She couldn't believe it. She had just spent an unforgettable night with Arthur last night.
Saw this scene this morning.
"What have you done..." Gion came behind Arthur and asked heavily.
"It's not me who's wrong, it's this world." Arthur's expression was extremely cold-blooded, and he stood there motionless:
"These villagers I killed don't deserve to live."
"The gunshot just now was fired at my head by the woman lying outside the camp."
When Arthur had just finished doing that and returned to the boat, he relaxed his guard.
The moment the woman fired the gun, his observation Haki and reaction immediately made him alert.
The tragedies that had occurred in the villages near Judicial Island in the past never happened again.
Gion lowered his head with a gloomy look on his face.
She knew Arthur wouldn't lie or kill civilians for no reason.
Unless the other party causes trouble themselves.
"Arthur, didn't you say you were traveling and having adventures? I hope you can tone down your murderous intent," she pleaded.
Wherever Arthur went, many civilians would die.
Then all his previous false public opinions will become facts.
Arthur left the refugee camp and stopped beside Gion to glance at her.
Noticing Arthur's pause, Gion spoke again: "Please!"
"I understand." Arthur agreed.
Since you want to build your power, you still have to listen to the advice of those below you.
Otherwise it would reduce loyalty, which was what he found troublesome.
It would be better to kill them all and turn them into my puppets...
Thinking of this, Arthur felt that it had not reached that point yet.
He also felt that it was time to explore other uses of the "Soul Cage".
"Are you just going to let him go like this?" asked Gion's adjutant, Shani, when she saw Arthur leaving.
"If I don't let him go, what can I do?" Gion responded to Shani: "I can't do anything to him, but you will die in front of me."
"It was supposed to be a good day, but I... I feel so heavy-hearted right now in my neutral position."
In the Navy, she has a sister whom she misses.
Now he has even joined Arthur's camp in private, stabbing him in the back.
In order to relieve Gion of the pressure, Shani stopped asking for her opinion and gave orders to the surrounding female soldiers:
"Everyone, dig a grave for them, single company, and start burying them."
The female soldiers received the order and immediately took action.
"You should cultivate your mind, Vice Admiral, and I will help you handle the official business of warships in other regions."

At the coast of Rapeseed Village Pier, we returned to the ship and checked the porthole of cabin No. 1:
"Switch to number 2, Robin. This place is no longer sheltered from the wind and rain."
"Why does she want to kill us?" Robin asked Arthur, understanding a little but not completely.
"Not to kill us, but to kill me." Arthur responded to her and turned to look at her:
"I'll teach you one more lesson, Robin. You must learn these things from a young age."
Robin listened carefully: "Arthur, you say."
"Don't test the evil of human nature at any time or place. Okay, get ready to set sail." Arthur said, walking out of the cabin to prepare to go to sea.
At this moment, Robin suddenly asked: "Aren't we going to name this ship, Arthur?"
"Just call it, Extreme Ice Blue Dragon No. 1." Arthur said to her.
Extreme Ice: This is his main name.
Canglong: It represents the most vicious person and the most brutal moves.
"Why add a number one?" Robin followed him to the deck to help.
"Because this ship is not our final ship. It will be damaged by all kinds of wind and rain during this long journey."
About ten minutes or so.
A series of preparations including raising the sails, dropping anchor, and checking the quality of the ship have been completed.
With Cooper at the helm, the Arctic Blue Dragon began to slowly leave the coast of Rapeseed Village.
Arthur stood at the stern, looking at the island with indifference.
It seems that apart from that green forest, there is nothing else to linger on.
Speaking of people, he didn't have much of a good impression of the people in this village.
When they were young, they were all around each other. Arthur grew up completely on his own and never relied on anyone in the village.
And also suffer from the oppression of the romantic village chief...
"Come to think of it, I was really stupid before." Arthur looked at the increasingly distant coast and laughed at himself: "If you don't experience cruelty yourself, even if you know that this world is cruel, you can't help yourself."
When we go to the member states, there are general forces, gangs, thugs and so on.
They should all know him, but most civilians would not be able to recognize him on the spot.
Over the years, Arthur has rarely set foot in the member states and exposed his whereabouts.
But now, he has enough strength to act alone, and even the Demon-Slaying Order can't do anything to him.
After a brief moment of retrospection, Arthur returned to the deck.
I saw Robin naturally doing normal physical training on the deck.
"Are you hungry, kid?" Arthur looked at her, walked to the rudder, and asked Cooper, "Why do you look a little serious?"
Cooper was serious and melancholy.
Thinking back to the ten years of happy life I had spent in the village with Arthur, those memories made me feel uncomfortable.
It called out: "Cooper..." (I always feel, Arthur, we shouldn't kill all the villagers...)
Seeing that Cooper was confused, Arthur stroked his eagle head and comforted him:
"We have come to this point, and no matter what we say, the world will not forgive us."
“What we did was evil! But as long as we continue to grow and pursue our goals, evil will eventually become good.”
His goal is to be the king, a king who is above all creatures, races, powers, countries, etc.
There is no right or wrong in my eyes, only strong and weak.
