MTL - Weird Deep-sea Game, I Can Fish Without Limit-Chapter 232 The location is clear, it's time to act
Chapter 232 The location is clear, it’s time to do it
On the morning of September 29th, the eleventh game cycle, Endless Sea World.
The sun has risen high in the sky, emitting bright autumn daylight.
Sunlight passed through the volcanic ash floating in the air, and shone into the outer city of Wind's Breath where countless transcendents gathered.
Because of Governor Penrose Fell's invitation, the magic weaver of the Violet Eye, the hidden person of the Black and White Court, the extraordinary person of the Ring of the Earth, and the light praying man of the Zijinhua Church are all gathered in the outer city square at this moment.
At the moment, with the statue of the Seven Gods in the center of the square as the center, each faction occupies one side.
"This is the first time I have seen so many hidden people."
In the square crowded with many extraordinary people, Benjamin, the third-rank and third-rank Holy Inquisitor of the Ring of the Earth, said to his companions.
Following the direction of his gaze, there are two teams of people in plain light leather armor and hoods, who are the hiders of the Black and White Academy.
In the rather chaotic square, their team was neat and disciplined.
Except for the Wood Elf Morning Star who is in charge of connecting with other forces, those hidden people all bowed their heads and walked in the shade of the tree in silence.
No one whispered to each other, let alone attracted by the magnificent scenery of the square.
As for the hidden people of the Black and White Academy, even in the minds of extraordinary people, they are too mysterious.
Hidden people of the Black and White Court rarely appear outside of Glory Isle, and rarely participate in secular affairs.
However, whenever there is a major event in the endless sea, there are always rumors that there are hidden people from the Black and White Academy behind the event who are manipulating and fueling the flames.
The rumors are true and false, but over time, outsiders' impressions of the hidden people in the Black and White Academy have always been equated with mystery and power.
Now, suddenly so many hidden people from the Black and White Academy appeared publicly, even if they kept a low profile and chose to stand in the shadow of the trees in the backlight, they instantly attracted everyone's attention.
But at this moment, a hurricane suddenly blew above the square, and along with the hurricane, another shadow shrouded the heads of everyone in an instant.
The sudden change made everyone in the square look up. At this moment, they saw a huge griffin flapping its wings and hovering above the square.
The griffin has a eagle head and a lion body. It has an eagle-like head, wings, and a sharp beak.
But the body is the same as that of a lion, with a thick tail and strong and muscular limbs.
Its front body and wings have golden feathers, while the back half of its body is golden brown animal fur.
With the instigation of the giant wings of the griffin, gusts of hurricanes blew in the square, and even the volcanic ash in the nearby air seemed to be blown away.
"Griffin? Did you bring the Violet Eye?"
Griffins are extraordinary creatures of the endless sea. They can fly, have certain wisdom, and have strong combat effectiveness.
However, the number of such creatures in the Endless Sea is already very rare, and the known ones have all been tamed by the Violet Eye.
As the griffin hovered over the square, everyone's eyes were attracted by the griffin again, wanting to take a look at this very unusual extraordinary creature.
At this moment, they had already reached the square, and Merlin, chief of Violet Eyes, who was dressed like a pope, raised his arm in luxurious clothes and waved to the air.
The griffin finally stopped hovering when it saw the call from its master. It flapped its wings and landed obediently beside the chief.
Thus, some low-level transcendents with little experience gathered in the square finally saw the true size of the extraordinary creature Griffon with their own eyes.
It is as huge as it is displayed in the sky, even if it folds its wings and lands on the ground, the griffin is as huge as three or four adult elephants.
The wings that can fly, the sharp beak, the strong and powerful muscles all over the body, and the huge body make the Griffin look very powerful and powerful.
But at this moment, the griffin that attracted everyone's attention was stopping next to the chief Merlin of Violet Eyes. It lowered its head, waiting for the chief's caress like a small pet.
Among the four forces, due to the presence of the head of the Violet Eye, the law weavers have the largest number of people on this trip, the largest guard of honor, and the largest number of high-level extraordinary people traveling with them.
At this moment, those rich and ostentatious law-weavers have cleared out an open space in the square facing the sun.
From the wide back of the griffin, they removed a canopy inlaid with precious stones, gilt chairs, upholstered red velvet with tassels, footstools made of precious wood, and resting on elaborately carved trays. food, and the precious incense burner that emits a delicate fragrance.
Soon, the spellweaver apprentices built a comfortable resting area similar to a stand in that open space.
In this area full of luxurious items, the chief dressed like a pope sat at the main seat, and the ten accompanying archmages sat on both sides.
At this moment in the outer city, the volcanic ash in the air is still all over the sky, but even though the visibility is not high, the area occupied by the Violet Eye still glows with all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry.
The degree of extravagance is really staggering.
"The Violet Eye is still so exaggerated, it makes me want to be a spell weaver."
On the other side of the square, the Holy Inquisitor Benjamin complained to his companions.
"As a spell weaver, you are only third-rank and third-rank, and the chief is a strong fourth-rank and ninth-rank."
A female voice sounded, it was Candice who was also in the ring of the earth, she glanced at Benjamin and continued:
"The chief is the highest-ranking Transcendent in the Endless Sea at the moment. It is understandable that he enjoys this kind of treatment.
If one day you are also promoted to the fourth rank and ninth rank Holy Inquisitor, if you don’t talk about anything else, just talk about the king’s reward, um—”
Candice narrowed his eyes and smiled:
"I want to make an agreement in advance, don't forget old friends."
"Uh-heh heh."
Thinking of the scene where the volcano collapsed that day and the chief used a magic barrier to protect everyone from evacuating, Benjamin blushed, scratched his head in embarrassment, and looked at the kestrel:
"I have too many distracting thoughts, and I probably won't be able to reach that height in this life. It's up to our boss to make a success.
Boss, don’t forget your subordinates when the time comes! "
Listening to the words of his subordinates, Kestrel shook his head helplessly:
"The Violet Eyes are very profitable in the earthly world. Whether it is status or financial resources, it is very suitable for them to use this kind of ostentation."
"really."
Benjamin nodded. Extraordinary people speak in terms of strength. If strength is enough, no matter how exaggerated it is, it is normal.
"Hey, but, if you look at the Black and White Courtyard, there are quite a few people here, but they are so low-key."
Benjamin suddenly remembered something, he said and looked towards the backlit side of the square.
In the shadow cast by a row of dense trees, the hiders of the Black and White Court stood there silently, as if they had already merged into the shadow.
"Isn't it that the dean of the Black and White Academy has not come?"
After listening to Benjamin's words, Candice joked softly and exaggeratedly:
"If the dean comes in person, the sun will be half covered by you."
Benjamin laughed when he heard the words, and looked at the sun in the sky, but he didn't think there was anything wrong.
In the world of extraordinary people, no matter how big the battles they use for these extraordinary powerhouses with absolute strength, it is not surprising.
Not in the mood to listen to the complaints of his subordinates behind him, Kestrel observed the current situation in the square.
The Violet Eye, the Black and White Court, the Ring of the Earth, and the Purple Golden Flower Church.
Not to mention the Zijinhua Church, the main organization of the praying people is not here. They have the smallest number and the weakest strength. This time they appear more like dealing with official errands.
As for the Black and White Academy, they are very low-key, but also too mysterious.
Chen Xing is the only one who is in touch with other organizations in the Black and White Academy. Kestrel knows that Chen Xing is a third-level hidden person, but there should be stronger people hiding in the shadow of the tree.
However, judging from the diplomatic attitude of Morning Star to visit and make friends with the chief now, it seems that none of the hiders on their trip can reach the rank of chief.
As for himself, although the Ring of the Earth belongs to the king, he is only a fourth-tier holy inquisitor.
So as far as this square is concerned, no matter in terms of strength or influence, Violet Eye is absolutely respected.
With apprehensions about the governor's invitation, Kestrel explained a few words to his subordinates, and also went to visit the chief of Violet Eyes—Merlin.
Kestrel did this for no reason. He knew that Governor Fell had acted abnormally recently.
The felon Marthas, who is wanted by the empire, is suspected to be in Wind's Rest, not to mention the volcano that appeared and collapsed inexplicably, and the filthy aura of the lava lord on the volcano.
Kestrel is afraid that if something happens here, if Governor Penrose Fell really designs some conspiracy...
Of course Kestrel does not dare to be so suspicious at this moment, but faintly, he wants to unite with several forces, just in case of unexpected accidents.
Among these forces, Merlin, the chief of the Violet Eye, is naturally the most important thing in the alliance.
After thinking about the rhetoric, Kestrel went to the area where the Violet Eye was located to visit the chief.
Different from the outward appearance, Chief Merlin, who pays attention to keeping his face clean and ageless, is very approachable.
"I know what you two mean by coming here, so I won't beat around the bush."
Chief Merlin of Violet Eyes said to Kestrel and Morning Star:
"In this square, I can perceive the filthy power of the lava lord. Although it is rare, my perception will not go wrong."
Meilin is a fourth-rank and ninth-rank spellweaver. In the Endless Sea, except for Li Feng who was promoted to the fifth rank through special means, Governor Fell and Marthas, he is the most powerful group of people.
Compared to the third-level Morning Star and the fourth-level Kestrel, Chief Merlin's perception of various forces in space is naturally much more sensitive and powerful.
"The chief lord means that the lava lord has been to this square? Or...here?"
Kestrel inspected his surroundings carefully, and only caught a trace of power that made him uncomfortable. If Chief Merlin hadn't mentioned it just now, he would never have noticed it.
Kestrel once again experienced the power gap, knowing that the moment is not the time to lose, he immediately cleared up his emotions and asked about business.
And the reply he got was the affirmation of Chief Merlin:
"So I'm worried, I just don't know..."
Merlin stopped talking and did not continue.
He wanted to say that he didn't know what the Governor wanted us to gather here, but what he said just now made it clear. Even if he didn't say it now, the other two would definitely understand it.
"When will Governor Fell come?"
Morning Star, the wood elf, moved her pointed and long ears while talking.
It can’t compare to the Chief, nor can it compare to the Kestrel. Morning Star is only at the third level. She can’t even perceive the slightest filthy power, but she believes in the judgment of the Chief.
Looking in the direction of Storm's End, the iconic building of Storm Island, the two huge dragon heads stacked on the spikes are still eye-catching, but the Dragon Slayer Governor has not arrived.
An uneasy silence spread between Morningstar Kestrel, Chief Merlin, and the Archmage accompanying him.
After a long time, Kestrel spoke:
"Today's matter, I have to trouble the Chief Sir to decide."
What Kestrel said was cryptic, but the meaning was obvious.
That is, if something happens today, the transcendent of the White Maple Manor in the Ring of the Earth will obey orders and rely on Chief Merlin.
Kestrel said this, Chen Xing blinked and followed closely:
"Yeah, I'm going to trouble the Chief Sir."
Obviously, the Heiheiyuan represented by Chenxing also has the same meaning.
"The lava lord is a very evil creature. If it invades the world, I will definitely not leave it alone."
Understanding what the two of them meant, Chief Merlin replied very responsibly.
At this moment, on the road leading to the square, there was a sound, which attracted the three people to look.
Looking through the gray volcanic ash and the yellowing leaves in autumn, everyone saw a group of knights in armor coming on horseback.
Headed by the Knight Commander of Storm's End, Lannis, and behind Lannis, are other high-ranking transcendents of Storm's End who are also riding horses, as well as the ministers.
Behind them, there were densely packed formations of Storm's End soldiers.
Although Governor Fell could not be seen, Kestrel was somewhat relieved to see the knight ministers from Storm's End.
He had imagined just now that Governor Fell would lead them to the square, and then let the lava lord kill them.
But now that the Governor's people have also entered the square, at least that situation will not happen easily.
The volcanic ash that has been difficult to completely eliminate for a long time is still in the air.
They dirty houses, trees, flowers and leaves, and often disturb people's sight.
In the outer city of Wind's End, on the roof of a small two-story building around the square, Li Feng watched the knight minister of Storm's End who had just entered the square.
‘Something must have happened, which changed the original cooperative relationship between the Governor and Cocoon. '
Li Feng, who knows more about the truth, knows that the governor and Marthas are helping the lava lord Cocoon to wake up.
And Cocoon's real hiding place is in the outer city square.
Originally, Li Feng believed that the Governor had brought the three major forces together in the square to use them as sacrifices to Cocoon.
But at this time, the governor's own people also entered the square. If Yu Yu woke up and started killing, the governor's people would not be spared.
‘The governor will definitely not casually compromise his own strength, so…’
For the time being, I still can't figure out the intention of the governor and Marthas, but Li Feng doesn't bother to think about it.
Because at the moment, the sudden arrival of so many extraordinary people has caused changes in the cocoon that has not yet awakened.
On the tracker obtained from Stowaway X, the white dot representing the cocoon is getting more accurate and brighter.
At the same time, Delana told Li Feng that the mermaid tribe had arrived, and they were now in the sea near the shore, ready to be dispatched at any time.
"Um."
Li Feng nodded, knowing that it was time to act.
Finally confirmed the position of the white dot on the tracker, Li Feng found out amusedly that the cocoon of the lava lord was probably hidden in the statue of the Seven Gods carved out of prismarine.
'No wonder Xia said at the time that she had never seen such a large prismarine, so the doorway is here. '
Moreover, sealing the cocoon with a supernatural mineral such as prismarine is indeed conducive to shielding his filthy power.
As for now, since the location of Cocoon has been determined, and there are so many extraordinary people in the square, no matter what the governor wants to do, Li Feng intends to give those people some hints first.
But this prompt must not be given in words, because verbal prompts are irrelevant, easy to argue, and extremely inefficient.
Li Feng judged that because Yu Yu had not fully awakened, even if she was exposed, Yu Yu would not be able to attack with all her strength.
Raising the flint, Li Feng aimed his gun at the statue of the Seven Gods through the dense leaves and volcanic ash floating in the air.
