MTL - Age of Mysticism-Chapter 411 Pledge Ceremony
Chapter 411 Oath Ceremony
"Assassination of you is the decision of the Shadow Chiefs Grand Alliance. As for why? I don't know. I heard from Chief Walker that it is to prevent angels and Shuojin people from approaching the World Tree."
Qing Kong said: "This answer doesn't satisfy me."
The face-to-face officer immediately defended himself: "I really don't know the real reason. Only those shadow tribes who participated in the ancient war know the inside story. Since the news of World Tree's recovery spread to the underground, many old guys who have disappeared for hundreds of years have risked out.
It was their decision to assassinate you. "
Qing Kong looked at the interviewer, judged whether she was lying, and then asked: "That is to say... even if you fail, there will be shadow clans coming to assassinate me later?"
The interviewer was silent for a while, and then reluctantly answered: "Yes!"
Troublesome Shadow Clan.
The last thing Qingkong wants to see is "If you don't get it, you destroy it". When the angel's sanctuary and the shimmering people's World Bank branch were built in the Moonlight King's Court, the Shadow Clan would most likely target the World Tree for destruction.
After the matter has come to an end, it is necessary to go back to the Moonlight Royal Court to strengthen the defense.
Qing Kong said to the interviewer: "Originally, you sent someone to talk to me about some things, and you can talk about everything. But you chose the most extreme one. The crypt man killed the elder of the Shuojin man, and everything was gone. room for.
The Shadow Clan will have to deal with the Glitterjin's revenge before they arrange for the next batch of assassins to kill me.
As for you, just stay with me, a complete shadow parasite is a rare experiment. "
After finishing speaking, Qingkong cut the crystal pillar in half without waiting for Shenmian to agree.
Shen Mian was very dissatisfied: "This is my trophy, I also need a shadow parasite to expand my experimental project, and you already have a shadow parasite."
Qing Kong thought about it for a while, and said: "The shadow parasites of the crypt man cannot be used for some reasons, and the shadow parasites of the human face servant are living bodies, which are more valuable than the crypt man.
I propose that the human face service be jointly owned by you and me, and be kept by me. I have very complete experimental equipment here, and I have the Institute of Extraordinary Species of the Empire and the Oulu Academy as research backups. The conditions are much better than yours.
In the future, if you want to study shadow parasites, you can come to me. "
Shen Mian was not fooled by Qing Kong: "I seem to only have a nominal part of the ownership, and even the research needs to be under your supervision?"
Clear Sky said as a matter of course: "Yes, if I didn't appreciate your knowledge, I wouldn't give you a part of the ownership.
I'm not asking for your opinion, I'm just telling you about my distribution plan. "
Shen Mian was a little angry: "Do you want to fight with me?"
Qing Kong smiled and said: "In your Crystal Palace, I may not be able to beat you. But after leaving the Crystal Palace, you are definitely not my opponent."
"Are you too confident?"
Qingkong knocked on the crystal with the human face guard: "You and I are obviously different in strength. The caveman is stronger than the human face guard. After I killed the cave man and sent away the shimmering gold man, you won the battle." Face-to-face service.
Deep sleep, you are really no match for me! "
The contrast of the clear sky left Shen Mian speechless.
To be honest, when he came back from the interview and knew that Qingkong had already dealt with the crypt man, he was extremely shocked.
He has tracked two Shadow Clans, and he knows that the strength of the Crypt Man and the Human Face Service are not of the same order of magnitude. Qingkong can win ahead of the stronger Crypt Man, and his strength is not ordinary terror.
Leaving Crystal Palace, Shenmian didn't have the confidence to win Qingkong.
"It's late, I'm going back."
Depressed, Shenmian was about to go back to the palace. Anyway, he got the crystal magic curve formula and Bundalta structure, so it wasn't too bad.
At this moment, Clear Sky called Shen Mian to stop: "Didn't you want Fitch to wipe your body? Fitch sent the Shuo Jin away, and he should be back soon."
Deep sleep immediately stops the sinking body.
When Fitch arrives, Qingkong asks Shenmian to go to the spa with him, and she returns to her office.
Take out the Book of Calamity.
A thick encyclopedia of occult arts floated in front of her.
Clear Sky has long stopped treating the Book of Calamity as a harmless "brick", and tried not to use the Book of Calamity when releasing secret techniques.
But the continuous mutation of the Book of Calamity made her have to think about what went wrong with it.
The last time it was the golden compass, this time it was the fluorescent star cluster. The artifacts that had been missing for a long time showed their traces continuously because of the book of disasters.
Could it be that... the place where the artifact is lost is in the abyss!
What is the abyss, there is no explanation in the era game, and the players have not yet found the answer. All I know is that it is filled with powerful and chaotic abyss energy, and the result of any player opening the abyss is an indescribable death.
So no matter how hard the player is, there is nothing they can do about the abyss.
The Book of Calamity becomes a secret art brick in the player's hands. As long as the abyss is not opened, it is a very useful tool.
The Book of Calamity is called the Book of Calamity because it is the subject of the word of the secret technique and has the function of opening the abyss. The Abyss Apostle is transformed by the Oulu mage who opened the abyss and obtained the energy of the abyss.
The relationship is clear.
The abyss did not appear because of the appearance of the book of disasters. The book of disasters just happened to be the key to open the abyss, so it is impossible to judge when the abyss existed.
If the abyss existed during or before the ancient war, there is a possibility that the five artifacts were lost in the abyss.
So... if it is a game, how many versions do you need to update when the artifact comes out of the abyss?
Qingkong considers the problems he is facing from the perspective of the game.
According to the normal game design, if the artifacts are in the abyss, the plan will sooner or later let them be born to cause trouble. What needs to be considered now is... What conditions and plots are set for the artifact to come out of the abyss.
Qingkong thought a lot and checked a lot of information, but still had no clue.
However, what is certain is that the value of the Book of Calamity in his hands has greatly increased. Not only is it useful for the Abyss Temple, if the five ancient civilizations know that the artifact is in the Abyss, it is estimated that it will immediately trigger a new ancient war.
low profile!
Clear Sky put away the Book of Calamity and packed up his luggage to go to Oulu Academy. She needs to learn more about the Book of Calamity from Dean Willred... How did an encyclopedia of secret arts become the key to the abyss.
Clear Sky boarded the airship to Rage City overnight.
The next morning, when Clear Sky stepped off the airship, a grand military parade was being held in the cape area of Raging Waves City.
In the newly built Cape Harbor, the governor of Raging City, Meteor, inspected the newly established Raging City Armored Assault Division and the new round of reorganization of the Raging City Fleet.
The Raging City Armored Assault Division, except for the War Fortress, which was too large, did not appear on the stage, and all other new and old weapons and equipment appeared one by one.
All staff are equipped with light combat armor, and the blades of the standard fighting knives are all quenched with enchantment, which is harder and sharper than ordinary swords.
Each combat soldier is distributed with a bottle of powerful rage potion, a bottle of life recovery potion, and a bottle of spirit curing potion. Clear negative magic status, attack magic, and warning magic scrolls.
Ten combat soldiers form a combat team, which has a transport truck, a troop carrier, a tin man delivery vehicle, and a vanguard motorcycle.
Configure tactical magician squads at the platoon level.
Company-level deployment of tactical magic projectile artillery.
The battalion level has offensive and defensive war forts, supply war forts, and tin man assembly projection war forts.
The regiment class has five airships directly under it.
The entire Raging City Armored Assault Division is equipped with five main regiments, an airship brigade, a strategic magic projection artillery regiment, a tin man production and assembly line, and a field hospital.
In addition, Luke also used the Assault Bear Squad and the Polaris mercenaries from the service to form a special polar bear team for high-end battles.
It can be said that Luke used the money and equipment to form an army to form this 20,000-strong armored assault division. Once the money is in place, the quality of the army will not be bad.
In the port area, the Raging Waves City fleet has undergone a new round of reorganization, and all motor sailing ships have been eliminated. With the Imperial Raging Fleet, the Anti-Smuggling Fleet of the Cape District Secret Affairs Bureau, and the Brilliant Island Fleet as the main body, a fleet is formed, all of which are composed of No. 1 aircraft.
All-metal warships floated in the port, complementing the steel-armed army in the port area.
Facing the army he built with his own hands, Luke couldn't help but feel high-spirited.
He stood on the rostrum of the military parade, and behind him stood the government and military officials of Raging Waves City.
"Soldiers of Raging Waves City! Before you became soldiers, you all had other identities, such as workers in factories, salespersons in shopping malls, artisans, teachers, technicians, and even factory owners.
You have used your hard work and wisdom to create the great city of Raging Waves. This is a world-class city, it leads the fashion of the world, it is a beacon that the whole world emulates. When most of the world is still in the backward and wild stage, our city is at the forefront of the new era.
However, what we are facing is not only beautiful, our wealth and happiness make many people jealous and jealous. Therefore, we need to grow fangs and claws, and use our own methods to defend our interests in this era of lack of world order.
Nowadays! You have to leave Raging City and go to the north to defend the empire's territory and destroy the hateful invaders.
I never doubted that we would be victorious in the end, but this is only the first enemy on your journey. In the future, the business routes opened up by Raging Waves City will be guarded by you, and each of you will have a share of the wealth that Raging Waves City has gained from developing overseas markets! "
Governor Meteor's speech drew applause from the audience.
In the past few days, a major event has happened in Raging City. The Raging City Ocean Trade Development Company was jointly established by the Yanyang Group and the major consortiums of Raging City. Governor Meteor released the "Free Trade Act" for the first time at the inaugural meeting of the Raging City Ocean Trade Development Company, and proposed that all official and private armed forces in Raging City have the obligation to defend free trade by force.
Defend free trade by force, but anyone with a little brain knows what this is trying to do.
Suddenly, the stock of Raging City Ocean Trade Development Company doubled and skyrocketed.
During this military parade, Governor Meteor directly put the protection of trade routes in his public speech, and even bound the two strongest military forces in Rage City with the development of overseas markets.
The merchants in Raging City may not care about the distant Northern War, but they definitely care about the more distant overseas markets. If the army of Raging Waves City fought well in the war against the Art County United, it would definitely form a strong deterrent to other countries.
With such an army escorting the trade routes, it is really free trade!
Luke announced the establishment of the Raging City Soldiers Foundation after his speech at the swearing-in ceremony. The main function of the Soldiers Foundation is to issue additional rewards to soldiers who have done meritorious service; to help retired soldiers in life; to provide pensions to dead soldiers and take care of their relatives.
As soon as the Raging City Soldiers Foundation was established, it immediately received extensive donations from the business community. The financial pressure on the government affairs department of Raging Waves City due to raising the army has been greatly relieved.
For the soldiers, the swearing-in ceremony speech brings only a momentary passion, and the city soldier fund solves the worries of the future, which really improves morale.
That night, the Raging City fleet blew its whistle and left the port.
Mrs. Tasia will lead the main force of the fleet to go straight to Songta Port, attack the sea power of the Art County United in the waters of Songta Port, and seize the dominance of the sea to create a maritime safety barrier.
On the ground, the armored Assault Division of Raging City pretended to go northward via the railway. During the day, the army left by train, and at night, heavy equipment continued to be transported to the northern border by railway, while the main force of the army took the train with light loads and drove around to the northern mining area. From there, the troops walked to the seashore, and then boarded the troop carriers waiting on the sea in traffic boats.
The entire sea area is blocked by the Naga tribe, and all troops and ships are under blackout.
Luke did not go out with the army this time, and his current status is not suitable for leading troops to fight for a long time. Professionals should be done by professional people. Since the army is given a commander in chief, we must trust the commander in chief.
My job is on another battlefield, a battlefield that can directly affect the outcome of a war.
In the Governor's Mansion, Luke wrote a letter to Helkkin with the agreed password, sealed it together with a piece of original stock of Raging City Ocean Development Company, and then arranged for personnel to send it to Winter Capital.
After everything was done, the day passed without knowing it.
Kelina came outside the governor's study with a cup of coffee, and when she was about to push the door, she took the coffee in her hand with one hand.
Kelina almost exclaimed. After all, this is the core of the Governor's Mansion, and someone can reach this place without a sound.
If the assassin...
But when Kailinna saw someone coming, she immediately covered her mouth and said softly, "Miss Weatherlight, when did you come?"
Qing Kong smiled and said: "I just came in. I can just bring him the coffee. Go and rest. I will leave after chatting with you Marquis. I won't disturb anyone."
Kelina is aware of the relationship between Qingkong and the Marquis of Meteor. She gently opened the door: "Miss Qingkong, please come in. The Marquis must be very happy to see you. Do you want me to pour you a cup of coffee?"
"No need to!"
