Chapter 614

A female demon? What kind of thing is that?

【Monster! Monster! There must be monsters! Haha, I guessed right!】

【Don't be in a hurry to be happy. I don't think Mr. Zhang is that shallow. The female demon he mentioned won't be the same concept as what you understand.】

【Right, the so-called monsters in the traditional definition are all kinds of demons and ghosts. Not to mention whether those things exist or not, but if the Queen of Jingjue is classified in this category, you are being too far-fetched.】

Zhang Lin didn't continue to keep people in suspense this time, but said, "I understand. When I mentioned female demon, you would definitely think in the wrong direction. Don't think about those mythological stories."

"This so-called female demon just means that her abilities and body are different from normal humans. I don't know specifically where she came from."

"However, the Queen of Jingjue was indeed able to become the Queen of Jingjue and rule the entire Western Regions in this way because of her special abilities."

"Now, let's return to the first question someone asked me: why didn't these people join forces to resist the Queen of Jingjue?"

Zhang Lin didn't ignore this question, although when explaining the murals, he used the Queen of Jingjue's self-conceit of being a deity to divert the topic.

And it was also a disguised way of giving a so-called answer.

But he understood that this was not the core point of everything, and at that moment, he couldn't reveal this matter, just because it wasn't in the rhythm.

Now he could tell the other party this definitive answer.

"We always say one thing: to resist a person, at the very least, this person must be within the Dao."

"This Dao can be understood in many forms. Here, we can barely call it a kind of logical inertia."

"The Queen of Jingjue regarded herself as a deity and claimed to be omnipotent. If it were just because of this spontaneous reason, these people would have risen up in resistance long ago."

"Why did only the Prince of Gumo have such courage, and come alone? This shows that an army in terms of numbers cannot defeat the Queen of Jingjue, because some fear is innate."

"We can see from the second and third murals that what guarded the Ancient City of Jingjue was by no means just soldiers. What kind of flood monsters are hidden in this, let's not mention for now."

"The key lies in this unique ability of the Queen of Jingjue."

"Mr. Zhang, what kind of ability could make everyone fear?" While the question was being asked, everyone actually thought of it. As long as it wasn't some earth-shattering ability, such a situation would absolutely not happen.

This ability doesn't necessarily have to be very powerful. For example, she alone could defeat an army of tens or hundreds of thousands. This is absolutely impossible.

If that were the case, it wouldn't have been just the Western Regions at the time; the Queen of Jingjue would have even expanded her territory further.

But this ability must have exceeded the cognition of everyone at the time. Originally, people at that time were particularly superstitious, always sacrificing to Heaven and Earth, and doing things like praying for rain.

So once someone showed that kind of ability they completely couldn't understand, they would very naturally think the other party was a deity.

And under the blessing of such a deity, it made them all lose their instinctive desire to resist.

No matter to what extent they were being exploited, they could always find an excuse to tell themselves that it was the will of the deity, so it did not allow them to resist.

The rulers of those small states all thought this way, so the subjects below naturally had no chance to resist such oppression and rule.

It was precisely because the Prince of Gumo knew this that he had no intention of uniting with others. He knew that doing so would only make him die faster. If he found someone to cooperate with and stated his idea, the news would reach the ears of the Queen of Jingjue in the next moment.

That would also drag the subjects of his kingdom and himself into the abyss together.

"Regarding this ability of the Queen of Jingjue, we have to look at this sixth mural. Actually, everyone here should have a question in their hearts now: why does this Queen of Jingjue cover her face with a black veil?"

The girl who was shouting to go on a date with Zhang Lin just now didn't even use her brain and said directly, "Mr. Zhang, I know, because this Queen of Jingjue must be an ugly monster, so she covered her face."

Everyone laughed at this sentence, but from their eyes, it could also be seen that they all had such thoughts.

This is a kind of inertial thinking at the moment. If a girl is very beautiful and doesn't want too many people to see her face clearly, she will definitely choose to cover her face with a thin veil.

And not this kind of black cloth strip. They even imagined that if a person stood in front of them wearing these black cloth strips, it would definitely look very terrifying.

Along with this terror, they could also imagine that what was hidden under this black cloth strip was absolutely an incredibly ugly face.

This sentence also made Zhang Lin laugh. He nodded and said, "You're actually not wrong in saying that, but this is not the fundamental reason for the Queen of Jingjue."

"Let's look at the sixth mural now. Pay attention to the eyes of the Queen of Jingjue above."

In the sixth mural, the Queen of Jingjue lifted a corner of the black cloth, and a ray of light shot out from her eyes, directly shining on a person in the corner.

I saw this person's whole body curled up, still in that kneeling posture, as if begging for mercy from the Queen of Jingjue!
