The sun is high - #134 - Chapter 133 The Essence of Earthquakes

It’s amazing to say the least.

The two people who once formed a temporary alliance in Salem City to deal with the crisis are now boarding the same ship again.

Although the formation of this unique teacher-student-cooperative relationship between the two is still related to external forces, with the foundation of the previous relationship, the conversation between the two this time is obviously more sincere and clearer.

As Wei Lin said on the way to Bolden, she can at least treat Shuge as a friend now, rather than just a “collaborator” to be wary of.

After hearing Xiuge’s answer, Wei Lin was stunned.

But then, her eyebrows rose: “Mr. Sugar, this answer is too perfunctory!”

“If you want my most sincere answer, this is it.”

Shuge raised his hand and signaled Wei Lin not to worry, and then he explained: “As you can see with your own eyes, my identity, the magic I have, what I am doing, and the things I may come into contact with in the future. They are all closely related to the Black Sun Society and everything they seek.”

“Under this situation, even if I really want to get rid of them completely and return to a relatively normal life, I’m afraid it’s impossible… If I don’t look for trouble, trouble will definitely come to me.”

“So under the current circumstances, I think we all need the protection and support of the royal family and the power of the family. Only in this way can our own safety be guaranteed. I can use the power of the family to further understand the trends of the Black Sun Society, and Weilin Miss, you should also need them to promote relevant research for you, right?”

Hearing Xiuge say this, Wei Lin’s eyebrows gradually relaxed. She hugged her legs and nodded gently, which was regarded as approval of his answer.

In fact, what Xiuge expressed was exactly what Weilin was thinking at the moment.

After witnessing these events planned by the Black Sun Society, anyone will instinctively seek the protection of a more stable and powerful force, and the Walter royal family and the Ernst family with ancient history and heritage are obviously extremely powerful. Excellent choice.

Financial resources, human resources, various resources and documents, and that crucial influence…

To successfully avoid those terrible malicious intentions and potential dangers, these important conditions are indispensable.

What’s more, according to the famous Black Sun prophecy, when the prophesied events actually happen, the entire world will fall into a new round of terrible turmoil. In that case, any individual will appear extremely insignificant.

Even those deep-sea mages who already have a mage tower and occupy a place in human society may not always be able to gain the upper hand when facing those unknown forces and existences – the Cedar Scholar Tower was attacked inexplicably before The group has revealed this possibility.

“Currently, our contact with the royal family and the family has just begun. Both sides are testing each other’s intentions and bottom lines…and our subsequent choices will also be made on this basis. In this case, our only choice What we have to do is not to let ourselves sink too deep. Only by keeping a certain distance can we be safer.”

“agree.”

“So, Miss Wei Lin, do you have any other questions?”

“No more for now. It’s not appropriate to ask other questions right now… The findings here are too shocking. I still need to do some more sorting. Let’s discuss these things at that time.”

Weilin’s mood seemed to be much better. She pressed her palm against the wall beside her. With the injection of magic power, a thin line lit by magic appeared on the wall and followed a slight buzzing sound. The passages and gaps quickly extended in the direction where the previous excavation sound came from.

After a moment, Wei Lin gently tapped the wall with her fingers, and used magic power to temporarily solidify the thin line used to guide the rescuers.

As if she suddenly remembered something, she suddenly asked: “Mr. Shuge, you mentioned before that you had a ‘change’ towards me twice. You told me the second time, so the first time When was the last time?”

“Uh, is this important?”

“Not that important, but I’m really curious.”

Although Wei Lin said this, her eyes were fixed on Xiuge’s face.

In such a closed and dark environment, Xiuge couldn’t even avoid the gaze, so he had no choice but to spread his hands and give his own answer.

“It’s Miss Weilin’s first visit to Ernst’s old house and looking through it…”

“Okay, I get it.”

Wei Lin decisively interrupted Shuge’s words, and then she shut her mouth and stopped talking.

…

The process of being “rescued” from the underground building was lackluster.

After all, neither of them had been injured in the previous operation, and their mental and physical conditions were still normal. Therefore, the emergency measures prepared by the Ernst Manor and the 5th Chasseur Regiment were not used. After the passage was successfully opened, the two The man refused the diagnosis and treatment provided by the army doctors and walked outside the manor hotel under the supervision and protection of several soldiers.

Zeke Ernst performed very well in carrying out rescue. He directly ordered the soldiers of the 5th Chasseur Regiment to clear everything in the hall of the manor hotel, and directly used large machinery and magic to open a path on the ground. Huge gap.

“It seems that the old man is ready to share all his secrets with the royal family.”

Xiuge adjusted to the bright lights outside and whispered to Wei Lin.

Before he finished speaking, he saw a tall and thin figure that was somewhat familiar.

That was Votel’s royal butler Finn. He was wearing a straight, clean black dress of a noble butler. Next to him stood several fully armed Ymir Legion soldiers. He should have been heading toward these soldiers. He gave the order, but Xiuge’s gaze obviously did not escape his perception, so he turned around, smiled, and nodded gently to the two of them.

Finn’s appearance here has already confirmed Shuge’s suspicion.

As a scheming “three-clawed falcon”, it is absolutely impossible for Zeke Ernst to bet all the chips on himself. Shuge even suspected that there might be another set of plans or plans in the hands of this old man.

Under the protection of the soldiers, Xiuge and the two finally left the ancient building.

The snow on the road had been cleared very cleanly. At the end of the road, Shuge saw Ellen, who had put on his guard uniform again, stood upright, and carried a new revolver at his waist.

Xiuge was very fond of this middle-aged man, so he walked up to him and asked with a smile: “How does it feel to become a personal guard again?”

“This is my luck and honor.”

Ellen answered in a deep voice, then turned his head slightly and nodded to the female mage walking next to Shuge: “Ms. Weilin, the members of the council have been waiting for you in the living room for a long time. You need to go and talk to her first. They met… and maybe did some debriefing, but they seemed anxious.”

“okay, I get it.”

Wei Lin nodded, but a trace of distress flashed across her face.

Obviously doing reports is not very pleasant in any time and space.

“Then I will ask someone to take you there…the belongings you have replaced and stored in the manor hotel will also be handed over to you by a dedicated person.”

Under Ellen’s well-organized arrangements, Weilin left quickly. Shuge could guess with his toes that Weilin would soon face huge pressure from the Mage Council-compared to herself and Ernst. According to the family’s account, the members of the Council will definitely be more willing to believe the report given by an official scholar.

“What about us?”

“Please come with me, the marshal has been waiting for you for a long time.”

After saying that, Ellen led Shouge towards the direction of the manor house. At this time, Shouge noticed that Ellen’s personal guard clothes were still stained with some blood and the color was still very new.

So he asked: “It seems that a lot of things have happened in the family in the past few days?”

“Not just the family, the entire Leiland District, the entire Bolden…”

Ellen replied in a low voice, and he sighed: “Mr. Sugar, I don’t know the specific situation, but the marshal will probably communicate with you.”

In this way, when the two of them arrived at the gate of Ernst’s mansion, the light had completely dimmed.

Although it didn’t snow tonight, it was still cold, and the huge mansion that had been transformed into a temporary fortress by the soldiers of the 5th Chasseur Regiment made the chill even higher.

And when he stepped into the gate of the mansion, the wills of the Ernst family that he had successfully brought out from the underground and once again “set foot” in the outside world woke up neatly, and they immediately started a heated discussion. For a time, small words filled Xiuge’s spiritual world.

“Oh, it looks the same as before, but the outer wall looks a bit old… And why are these soldiers piled here, preparing to fight in the manor?”

Alexandra was the first to express her opinion.

But then, old guys with military experience, led by Bernhardt and Jacob, jumped out and expressed their high approval of this solemn, rigorous and orderly scene.

“Hey! Which Chasseur Regiment is this? Newly formed?”

Bernhardt shared Shuge’s vision and looked at the young soldiers greedily: “They are all great boys. Look at their faces and their weapons! These are the soldiers who can go to the battlefield!”

Of course, some people also raised objections: “Were those people from the royal family before? When did the royal family enter the family manor with such fanfare? This is not a good sign…”

“This is not a garrison, this is protection! This shows that the family is still very important in the eyes of the royal family. When working closely together, it is normal to be subject to some surveillance and control. As long as there are no problems with the relationship, it will only make the family more stable.”

The person who spoke later was obviously a supporter of the Walter royal family, and his words did not hide his trust and admiration for the Walter royal family.

Amidst the talk and pointing of these old guys, Xiuge once again came outside the huge weapons exhibition hall. The moment he opened the door and stepped into the exhibition hall, all the arguments disappeared, leaving only General Bernhardt could not help but exclaim in exclamation.

Shuge ignored him and followed Ellen’s guidance as he walked towards the deepest part of the exhibition hall.

Finally, under the huge portrait of General Ludwig Ernst, Shuge saw the thin figure holding a wine glass and leaning on the wheelchair.

After not seeing each other for a few days, Old Zeke seemed to have lost two points of weight. But when his wheelchair turned around, Xiuge found that his energy was surprisingly good, and he was even a little excited.

Xiuge looked at the old man in front of him, and he silently observed the other person’s condition, while Old Zeke was also looking at Xiuge carefully.

After a few seconds of silence, the two of them actually showed a subtle smile at the same time.

“You look like you’re in a good mood.”

“It’s really good.”

The old man picked up the wine glass. He did not touch the wine inside, but sniffed it gently: “Don’t stand there, bring a chair over here… I’m sorry, kid, I should have let you have a good rest, but Things always change so quickly, so I think you have to come here first no matter what.”

As Old Zeke spoke, Shuge dragged a chair over from a small round table, and then sat down directly opposite the old man.

The old man nodded with satisfaction, then he slowly took out a folded piece of magic letter and handed it to Xiuge: “Here, you take a look at these first, and then we can talk slowly after reading it.”

Xiuge took the paper in confusion, only to find that it was densely written with words. Looking carefully, he found that these were actually collected and summarized through many channels and methods, information and information about the previous earthquake.

As the reading progressed, Xiuge’s expression gradually darkened.

This information on paper revealed to him a terrible disaster that had no warning.

That was not the earthquake that people thought it was at all.

What caused that terrible impact and vibration was the astonishing magical turbulence that erupted underground in the area south of Overlook Cliff – it spread rapidly along the ground, exerting an influence on everything along the way, and when its power When sweeping through areas rich in magical crystal minerals such as Lone Wolf Ridge and Yuanwang Cliff, the impact of this magical force reached its peak. The magical minerals buried in rocks and soil seemed to become powerful bombs.

They were detonated by this chaotic and amazing magic power. The camps, villages and small towns built around these crystal mines suffered the most direct impact. Some of the villages were even wiped out on the spot by the terrifying shock waves, while the military camps near the explosion site were also affected. There was a serious impact. When the magic power swept through the artillery camps and warehouses of both sides, the crystal cannon shells that had been properly stored were forcibly detonated under the interference and influence of the magic power, which caused huge losses and casualties.

Only at this moment did Xiuge know that the vibration he experienced underground was just the aftermath of this horrific shock…

This is the essence of that “earthquake”.
