Chapter 220 The Sacrificial Field IV(2/2)
"I haven't heard this title for many years," the old man said with a look of reminiscence on his face: "Do you know why I asked His Majesty the Late King to come to this place to be a tax collector?"
The bishop shook his head. If he knew it, would he be surprised? Only a ghost would be willing to come to this place to be a tax collector. The old man had great military exploits. In any case, he should not have been sent to this place at that time.
"Few people know that I grew up here," the old man replied slowly, "I lost everything on the battlefield, so the memories of my childhood here are the only treasures I have left."
"Go ahead," he patted the bishop on the shoulder: "I'll leave the fleet to you. Let me stay here alone. I have nothing to lose."
The bishop was completely stunned.
He couldn't help but watch the old man slowly walk forward, and raised his hands to let his servant put on the tax collector's robe for him. In his memory, the old man had never put it on since the day he took office.
This outfit.
The old man slowly buttoned the silver button on his collar.
From this moment on, he will no longer be the 'muddle-headed' old gentleman, nor the 'official' in name only. He will be the tax collector of the kingdom, the second chief executive after the guardian here.
.
And Toragotos has left this city, so only he can take on this responsibility here.
The shock wave has spread throughout the city.
Under everyone's horrified gaze, the towering spire in the center of the city suddenly made a crisp cracking sound.
Then, the whole thing broke from the center, collapsed, and fell into the square below. A building collapsed, and the dust cloud rose dozens of meters high. People still looked at each other, as if they still couldn't believe that it was their guardian.
How come the 'castle' is in pieces?
Where is the Lord Guardian?
The aftermath of the earthquake did not take into account people's thoughts. It moved forward slowly and was spreading through the mainland to the outer sea. Then the citizens and sailors living in the port area saw such a spectacle.
The clouds are retreating.
Layers of clouds surged backwards, and for a moment, it seemed as if the sea of clouds surrounding Fenris Island had disappeared.
A huge abyss appeared below Kukai, like a huge open mouth, as if something was rising from below.
After a while, someone finally let out a frightened scream: "Yuanhai!"
Facing the abyss is one of the biggest bad omens in the legend. It often symbolizes that the long life of a floating continent has come to an end, and what will follow will be destruction and despair.
Just like the death of Essoline.
People finally realized what had happened, and they rolled up in horror and left the port, as if there was a terrifying sea monster lurking there, and they had to stay as far away as possible...
…
Within the temple of the Goddess of Commerce, communication was restored after a while.
The underground scene with some distorted images reappeared around Sophie, and behind her, Su Changfeng's image returned to normal after flashing for a few times. However, the latter's expression was a little serious, and he asked: "Sophie,
What happened to you over there?"
"Not sure," Sophie shook her head: "It seems like there was an earthquake."
She answered like this, but her eyes were still fixed on the goddess's icon, the Sign of God. The Princess of Silver Vislan knew in her heart that things were definitely not that simple. The fall of the Sign of God had only happened in the past hundred years.
How many times?
"I just received a text message from your guild," Su Changfeng said: "They can no longer contact the Fenris Island branch. Something seems to have happened over at Yunzhi Port. They asked me to tell you that if possible,
Abort the mission immediately and leave Fenris."
"Abort the mission?" Sophie was stunned: "How is this possible? Everyone is still down there, how can I let them leave?"
"But your guild's order is to prioritize saving yourself."
"Dad," Sophie yelled, "Stop joking, what do you think your daughter is!?"
Su Changfeng shook his head: "This is not my opinion, it is your guild's order."
When he said this, he suddenly paused, glanced down at the communication crystal in his hand, his expression suddenly changed, and he said: "Internal affairs news, I can only repeat once that there have been changes in Fenris Island.
Leave the island within two hours without any delay."
Sophie was stunned for a moment. Of course she understood what the so-called stationed members had to leave the island within twelve hours. Those were military personnel who had to leave the island within twelve hours. This could basically be said to be the level of war mobilization. In the end,
This is nothing more than a serious state.
"What happened?" she couldn't help but ask.
"One of your crow-mouthed geniuses is right," Su Changfeng replied seriously: "Although we have not observed the resurrection of any god so far, so we don't know how wide the scope will be affected, but from now on
Judging from the current signs, I’m afraid it’s not optimistic.”
"What do you call my crow-mouthed genius?" Sophie replied angrily. She looked back at the scene underground and shook her head: "But everyone is down there, and I won't leave, let alone twelve hours."
, I think we can hold on for a while.”
Su Changfeng glanced at her and asked, "Have you thought about it?"
Sophie nodded.
After Su Changfeng heard this answer, he was not angry. Instead, he glanced at his daughter with admiration. Then he raised his hand and clicked on his communication crystal. A shadow was projected from above and appeared in Su's eyes.
Fei's side.
That is a holographic projection.
Inside was a somewhat gentle man, who gave the first impression of being a well-educated man. The man glanced at Sophie, then nodded to the latter and said: "Miss Sophie, is that right? The selector ID number is 076032115h. You
Okay, my name is Liao Tianhua, the Ambassador of the Republic to Stargate Port. You can also call me Ambassador Liao. Now I am asking you to please hand over the underground video signal of Fenris Island to the Stargate Port Emergency Command Center."
"This is also an order from the general headquarters." Su Changfeng smiled like an old fox and added at the side.
"Emergency command center?" Sophie widened her eyes, looked at her father, and then at Ambassador Liao. Of course she recognized him. In fact, he was the highest official stationed in Stargate Port in China, and he was basically the selector of the Chinese competition area.
The direct person in charge, it can be said that there are few selectors in the Chinese division who don’t know him.
She asked her father in a low voice: "Wait, you... won't you secretly report the things we talked about before?"
"What do you mean by secretly?" Su Changfeng shook his head: "Whether it is the high-level incident of Listening to the Rain, the possible betrayal of Toragotos, or the relationship between the people of the Blood Oath and the cultists, they are all major events.
How could I hide it myself? This is against discipline."
Ambassador Liao also smiled slightly: "Miss Sophie, don't blame Colonel Su. He is also responsible. Moreover, the current situation is urgent, and we need to make a prompt decision."
Sophie snorted softly. Although she was the same age as her father, she was embarrassed to leave an unreasonable impression in front of others. She just nodded and said: "Okay, but you must ensure the safety of my people."
, and at other times, I would randomly pursue responsibility, and I still remember what happened at Covenant Mountain."
"That's something done by the Super Competitive Alliance. What does it have to do with us?" Su Changfeng immediately retorted.
Ambassador Liao coughed and interrupted the other party: "Then let's start the video connection now. Does Miss Sophie know how to open this system?"
Sophie nodded, of course she understood this. She opened the interface, agreed to the authorization, and transmitted the underground images.
But soon, Su Changfeng's somewhat exaggerated voice came from over there: "Haha, this guy's commanding skills are really great, but he was lucky enough to have him hit the target and stop these lizard men."
"dad!"
Sophie stared at her father with raised eyebrows. Of course she also saw the following scene. To be honest, the scene just now was a bit silly and cute. Would ordinary people use fireball to blow up buildings like that? But she
He also knew that battlefield command was not actually Fang Piao's forte, but it was another matter for his father to say it in front of Ambassador Liao.
She also hoped that she could help Fang Plover enter the military. Only in that way could the other party have the confidence to face the Jefflite Red Team.
Somehow, Sophie always felt that she should do this favor for the older boy.
Su Changfeng waved his hand and said to himself that the commanding level of the genius you introduced is only about this. Ambassador Liao is also a knowledgeable person. He can see it without having to say it himself. What is there to hide? But he recalled the other party's previous experience.
That analysis made me feel somewhat interesting.
In Aitaria, it is not just combat talents. People with outstanding command talents are favored by major forces, and those with outstanding analytical skills are also very popular among the big guilds, and these talents are even better than the previous two.
are even rarer.
The little thought in his heart had already started.
But at this moment, the two of them heard Ambassador Liao let out a soft sigh.
The latter was looking at the person in the center of the underground scene with some surprise.
Look back to the ground
Fang Yu had no idea about the drastic changes on the surface of Fenris. He only knew that two rounds of fireballs had worked extremely well in the past. He was about to give the opponent two more shots to try, but once the square was empty, it was not as easy to predict the opponent's actions as it was on the roof.
route, secondly, Silver Vislan has never been a team mainly composed of magicians and elementalists. After the only elementalist in the team cast several fourth-ring spells in succession, the magic furnace was overloaded after all.
Circle spells are considered advanced spells for fifteenth-level characters.
But it's okay.
They have lost their spell advantage here, and they have also lost their terrain advantage over there. In a head-on confrontation, they are actually playing into the hands of Silver Vislan. In a head-on battle, these knights, even the elites, have to retreat, let alone these night lizards.
After all, these night lizards must abide by the laws of this black holy city, and their level cannot exceed level 15.
