Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 85: Peace and tranquility
"You killed the survivor of the escort, even for the sake of insurance, it was too rough. At the very least, you should let me ask about the situation first, maybe you can get more information."
Yam's accusation is quite bitter and merciless: "If he can take us to the 'Holy Land' he escaped from, maybe we have achieved our goal a few years ago, and we don't have to fight the aborigines now. In such a muddle-headed battle, so many well-trained good guys died."
"This is indeed my mistake."
After being silent for a while, Viscount Grant waved his hand wearily: "I know what you mean by telling me not to be impulsive, and let the natives realize that we already know the existence of their real holy land, but it may be too late. "
He shook his head and said, "Molin, that guy who was lucky enough to run back from the big storm. He is a devout Huaiguang believer—he said that he would tell the bishop about the aboriginal holy land he discovered, and then dispatch together to destroy it. That weird place full of vicious traps and altars of obscenity."
"I didn't want to kill him at first, and I even planned to reward him later, but when I ordered him to keep quiet and prepared to let you come and put him under house arrest, this guy actually wanted to run away"
When he said this, the Viscount 'tsk': "Rough? I even think I'm easy to talk! Can't he see that this matter is not something he can participate in?"
"Do you think I don't want to save those possible **** survivors? They are all knights I trained with my own hands! They are all young guys I watched growing up!"
Until then, it was only from the weary tone of Viscount Grant that he was an elderly man close to sixty years old: "But if the Huaiguang Church and even the emperor know about this father's order, Nothing will remain of the late emperor's mission, the family's mission, and my dream"
"But my lord, you can still save him"
Yam didn't really want to accuse his lord, he just reminded Viscount Grant to stop being impulsive: "The bishop seems to know something already, it's really not good, we may also cooperate with him 'person'."
The knight emphasized the tone of the word "I", obviously wanting to put aside the Huaiguang Church and cooperate with the bishop personally.
"Yam, it's not that simple."
Grant said helplessly: "Unlike the Church of Spiritual Weapons, the Retreating Order is different from the Hall of All Souls. The clergy on Huaiguang's side will never betray the order."
"Their psychic power comes from their belief in the 'Light of Huaiguang' and their 'firm belief' in the 'Proverbs'. They will never lie, they will uphold justice, they will be selfless, and they will abide by the creed .”
"But because of this, they absolutely cannot be 'our people'."
"This is troublesome."
Knowing the strictness of this kind of psionic ability, Yam frowned: "It seems that it can only be postponed."
"Yes, hold off on planning."
Closing his eyes and sitting back in his seat, Viscount Grant was lost in memory.
Since the Dark Moon turmoil more than 20 years ago, the originally revived empire was on the verge of civil strife.
But when the former emperor Inaiga II died, the crown prince died, two princes, a duke, God knows how many noble knights and high-level sublimated people returned to the sea of underworld.
Axel, the current emperor, the "Guardian of the Land", with the support of the Eastern Cavalry, defeated several of his brothers and sisters and ascended to the throne.
He stabilized the situation in a very short period of time and reorganized the military and political core, so that even if the empire suffered such a major change, he did not lose even a piece of land under the prying eyes of any foreign enemies.
But the national power of the empire cannot be unaffected.
During the reign of the first emperor, he made great efforts to build a new territory, and at the same time sent a large number of pioneering and immigrant groups in the south, west and northeast.
Harrison Port, located at the edge of the southern border, is one of them, and it shoulders an extremely important task.
"South China Sea Grand Relics Group"
The viscount murmured.
The Grant family was the late emperor's confidants, and they shouldered a secret mission to open up the southern border. While constructing the port in the far frontier, it is also necessary to make preliminary preparations for the future development of the ruins.
This is a long-term task of more than 30 years, but it is not too difficult, because with the emperor's secret support, the most difficult early accumulation can be skipped directly.
But no one could have imagined that, just as the sun was rising, Inaiga II, who oppressed the entire continent of Terra, would die suddenly. Believe it or not, I think this is an overly exaggerated strategic deception.
When the emperor passed away, the secret mission really became a secret, especially since the Dark Moon riot almost wiped out all the nobles and ministers in the court from the very beginning.
——These people are all dead, who knows their identities and hard work!
After many years, no one knows why Harrison Port was established. The development of Nanling was attributed to "another big plan of the late emperor who was so successful and costly". Therefore, it has been ignored all the time.
Until recently, perhaps the imperial capital wanted to build a maritime trade route center in the south, and then turned its attention back to Port Harrison.
"The natives of the redwood forest cannot be eliminated."
Opening his eyes, Viscount Grant confirmed his thoughts: "Otherwise, our construction and achievements will be easily taken away by visitors from the imperial capital - my father and I have fought on this land for fifty years. Fifty years of fighting, but we must not let the group of brainless fat people in the imperial capital think that our place is a good piece of fat."
"Until the real entrance to the South China Sea Great Ruins is found, everything will continue as usual. Yam, I don't trust anyone except you."
"Master." The knight also sighed. He looked tired but determined: "I will fight for you."
Terra calendar 766, September 18th, a big storm started from the far south sea, and hit Harrison Harbor, Big Sequoia Forest, Elephant Bone Mountain, Sighing Cliff, and Poratello in the Baisen Mountains. After the impact of Erfeng, it wandered to the northwest.
The huge waves it set off along the way destroyed seven coastal fishing villages in the Frodo Autonomous Region. The empire Odor and the Moldore colonies were hit by flash floods and mudslides, causing heavy losses.
On the day when the storm started, under the call of the great shaman Animu Swamp, the aboriginal tribes in the Sequoia Forest formed a coalition force and attacked Port Harrison, Three Rivers City, and Anmore Town at the same time.
Under the heroic counterattack of the governor of Harrison Port, Viscount Grant, the aboriginal coalition forces were repelled, and the aboriginal totem master, the spirit of the mountain tide, was severely injured.
However, as the main battlefield, Harrison Port suffered heavy losses. More than 300 soldiers were killed, citizens died successively, and more than 2,000 people were missing.
According to the follow-up interrogation of the captives, it can be known that the plague of "flickering mosquitoes" that occurred in the Midra Mountain Autonomous Region and the Odor colony was deliberately spread by the indigenous people, and the patient's vision would light up like flying mosquitoes from time to time , and there is a strong auditory hallucination like mosquitoes buzzing. Although it is not life-threatening, it is difficult for the patient to work and move.
Terra calendar 766, on September 21st, a large storm completely merged into the Wandering Ocean, and the extremely large amount of rainfall created many barrier lakes and new swamps in the northwest of the Bison Mountain Range, and the resulting climate impact even Even the Flying Flame Land far away on the other side of the Absalom Mountains felt it.
On September 22, the distant sea was calm, the cloud dissipated, and the sun shone on the land again.
The storm also died down.
As for Harrison Port, a city that has experienced storms and wars, although it has been destroyed by continuous battles and heavy rains, it is dilapidated.
But at this moment, it still ushered in the final victory, as well as peace and tranquility.
