Chapter 1904 The Chaotic City
"How come the letter from the Dragon Feast Order to the church to the God Summoner was delivered to the Witch Council?"
Xia De asked in surprise. Megan controlled the flame and chose to burn the blood-stained cotton and bandages directly indoors:
"How do you think the church can contact the God Caller? It seems that we are the only ones who have a good relationship with you."
Even Dorothy, who has only a preliminary understanding of "The Whispering Psalms", can say a few words about it:
"I heard that the church's judgment on the identity of the 'God Caller' is very strange. Do they still think you are a woman?"
As for Shade being the "God Caller", most of the team members who experienced that night at Lakeview Manor knew it well, so the writer had already guessed it. Xia De laughed twice and did not mention the more bizarre words such as "fish-man bloodline" and "paranoid psychosis".
"The Dragon Feast Order wants to meet with me alone. Ms. Nadia Foran, do you want to talk to me?"
"It's possible, but not necessarily."
Megan said, Dorothy was confused:
"When did they ask you to meet?"
"It has not been determined yet. This letter is just to test whether the church can really contact the God Caller. If I am willing to meet, the council will return the message to the church, and the church will then contact the [Dragon Feast Order] on the black market. The informant thing is really complicated.”
Megan said with a smile:
"Who made you have no subordinates and power of your own?"
"I hate this kind of thing, it's enough to have you and Mia by my side."
The cat meowed softly, and Dorothy and Megan both smiled:
"Then do you agree to meet with them?"
Xia De nodded:
"Of course, without further ado, it's best to meet immediately. Since cult groups like [Dragon Cult] dare to directly let the church act as an intermediary, it must not be a trap. Besides, they are just working with La There is no reason for Plath Klein Howard to rush up and fight for my life. What's more, Maria Edwards also said that Nadia Fallon has long been dissatisfied with the 'ancestors'."
"Okay, I'll send someone to contact the church right away. Just wait for the news. It's raining heavily outside and the city is under martial law, so don't go out."
With that said, Megan walked out of the room. Shade stood up holding little Mia, and Dorothy pointed downstairs:
"Maria Edwards stayed on the sofa in Durut Giles' room after she came last night. She said she wanted to keep an eye on Rust Edwards."
When she said this, she couldn't help laughing:
"This is the first time I have encountered such a complicated family relationship. After all, six generations can appear at the same time. Just think about it and you will know how many stories and love and hatred there are. Just pick out a small fragment and it will be enough. It’s a complicated enough puzzle. Do you want to see them?”
"Yes, let's go take a look, and let me know in advance what will happen next Wednesday."
But just as he lifted his feet, he looked out the window at the heavy rain:
"But let me go outside and take a look first."
"Martial law is under way outside."
"I'm not going to the street, I'm going to the garbage alley behind the kitchen. The rain came at the wrong time. Huh? What is that?"
Seeing Shade looking at the window in surprise, Dorothy also looked out the window, and then quickly took a few steps closer to the window:
"It's not an illusion, I saw it too."
In the distance of the violent rain scene, a giant wind furnace more than 40 meters high stands at the end of the field of vision.
The blast furnace is cylindrical in shape as a whole, and the bottom that is obscured by city houses seems to be a prism. The tall and magnificent industrial buildings and the eye-catching anti-rust red paint color give people a strong visual impact even in the rain.
Because the rain blurred my vision, I could only vaguely see the densely packed scaffolding surrounding the blast furnace. There seemed to be a walking path on the scaffolding. Although you can't see it clearly, only the strange steam age can have such an original and "industrial plain" spectacle.
"The glass blast furnace in Michaela Blast Furnace City."
Shade figured out what the wonder was. Dorothy, who had not been to the city on the other side of the lake, had already come to the window, wanting to see more carefully:
"Is that the famous wonder of the Old World? Is it a mirage now? Or is it another link caused by spatial changes?"
Xia De closed his eyes and used "powerful spatial perception" to feel:
"Spatial changes. Fortunately, it is not that the space is completely connected, but the image is projected in Green Lake City. Correspondingly, there should be a scene somewhere in Green Lake City that appears in Michaela Blast Furnace City."
"Oh!"
Although she knew that this hotel was protected by complex witch secrets and rituals, and that such a situation would not happen at this stage, Dorothy immediately closed the curtains and closed the view of her, Shade and the cat. Just stay inside the small room.
The torrential rain that started in the morning continued until this evening and showed no signs of stopping. Although Shade did not leave the Green Lake Hotel during this period, thanks to Dorothy's ability to pass on Lesia's information at any time, the witches would also pass on first-hand information to the hotel at any time, so he was also able to obtain Green Lake Hotel. First-hand knowledge from the Lake District.
The first was Duke Carina and Princess Margaret who were assassinated. Although both ladies were not injured in the assassination, they were both severely frightened. Especially Princess Margaret, this was the second assassination she suffered in the Green Lake area.
Although she successfully killed the assassin (officially) with the weapon she carried, this still made her suffer for the weak princess who had lived in Willendale City all year round and had never been exposed to such a tragic incident. Very severe mental trauma.
It is said that Princess Margaret has returned to the City of Glass on the other side of the lake this afternoon under the strict protection of her personal maid, personal doctor, bodyguards and Delrayon. As for Duke Carina, she had to face the subsequent serious problems that broke out after the assassination in Green Lake City.
This accident has brought more haze to the already precarious negotiations, and this heavy rain seems to be the best footnote for the future of the negotiations.
The small-scale conflict that broke out in the border area gradually spread to the ears of the big shots in Green Lake City shortly after the assassination. The sudden fighting lasted for two hours before being suspended amid the emergency mobilization of army troops from both countries. The statistics of soldiers killed and injured during this period have not yet been released, and the two countries have already accused each other of making mistakes.
Kasonrik accused Delarion's patrol of crossing the border without authorization and had to shoot after warning to no avail; while Delarion insisted that its patrol had always been there When operating within the national border, they were forced to fire back after suffering unwarranted accusations from Kasenlik's border troops and being the first to fire.
Due to the city-wide lockdown in Green Lake, no newspapers will be printed in Green Lake tonight. Shade, who listened to Dorothy telling the news at the Green Lake Inn, could already imagine how busy tomorrow's morning newspaper would be. However, because the assassin was too obviously framed, this assassination will not involve MI6 and Gray Gloves. This is the best news so far.
As the country's highest-ranking noble in the Green Lake area, Miss Carina spent the entire afternoon dealing with various matters such as the army, official speeches, city martial law, etc. Even Lesia could not take time off. But according to Dorothy, Agelina, who faced such a complicated and difficult situation for the first time, actually performed very well.
Not only can she help her aunt and sister handle and arrange various matters, but she can also very well comfort and coordinate the emotions of her brothers and sisters.
This made Shade look at Agelina with admiration. She was different from Lesia. Although she had been favored by the king before, she had never taken over government affairs. Being able to help Miss Carina appropriately this time was partly due to the training I received during the negotiation meeting, and partly because I was really talented at it.
While Delarion and Kassenric were shaken by assassinations and border conflicts, the Church of the Five Gods did not relax either. Although Shade had a hand in the assassination in the morning, there were a large number of prophets present this time. Even if the identity of the assassin who was shot in the chest could not be divined, he could still know that the [Tyranny Club] used methods in it.
What is even more worth mentioning is that this rapid rainstorm brought a damaged subspace to the southwest of Green Lake and a sealed evil object from the Fifth Age that was about to escape, forcing the church to send a thirteen-ring warlock. While going to deal with it, the church actually still had enough manpower to pursue the [Tyranny Club] following the clues provided by the Prophet Association.
On the night Margaret was assassinated not long ago, the Witches Council and the Righteous God Church captured prisoners respectively. The witches did not get many clues from the interrogation, but the Five Gods Church, which was supported by a huge number of diviners, already had Investigation direction. Combined with the new clues that emerged this morning, based on the intelligence obtained by Megan, the Peace Church finally found the stronghold of the [Tyranny Club] in the Green Lake area, and in the evening, faced off against the cultists of the [Tyranny Club] in the rain. .
Although Shade only heard about this incident and did not participate in this battle, he was sure that the church would not lose. The only question at the moment is whether Jarvis Edwards, the father of the Edwards brothers who is hidden in the Tyranny Club, can be found and captured by the church.
Although he is suspected to be loyal to the "ancestors", as long as he is caught by the church, the church has many ways to make him speak.
All parties are taking action, not just church forces and cultists. There are too many ring warlocks that Shade doesn't know about, running silently in this rain, just to take the lead in the battle of the chosen ones in space.
This rain, which lasted for who knows how long, brought more vitality to the spring of 1854. But Shade also knew that this shooting was destined to become a symbol of the changes in the old continent.
