Release that Witch - Chapter 1425
[Chapter 1382 What I saw]
The genius remembers the address of this site in one second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No advertisements! Cage Mountain, command post.
“Captain, another piece of the same information…” The clown walked to Hill Fox holding a note.
Even though it has been several years, the first few circus partners still used to call him the head of the circus.
“Where did you send it?” Hill took the note and scanned it, “Can it be traced back to the source?”
“The location of the courier was released from the south of Yongdong. There are three cities in total there. Apart from that, there is no other reminder on the seal.”
Hill frowned and pondered for a moment, then stood up abruptly, “Help me inform Master Iron Ax and Lord Edith that we may be in trouble.”
…
Fifteen minutes later.
Edith put down the information and tapped on the table lightly, “…that is to say, this incident happened in different parts of Eternal Winter at the same time?
Hill nodded, “Although it is impossible to confirm which cities are executing this order, judging from the distribution of intelligence, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the overall trend.”
In the past few days, the intelligence department has received several secret letters with similar contents.
The letter shows that the nobles are using forced means to relocate local residents.
And their direction of movement is north.
The similarities are so consistent, but the information from different regions is almost impossible to be misrepresented or forged. In other words, the nobles of Eternal Winter are launching a unified operation.
Although the secret letter only briefly mentions the word “migration”, it is by no means a trivial matter.
There is a limit to the carrying capacity of a city, and too little or too much population can paralyze it.
On the way of migration, there are more things that need to be considered, such as food for people to eat, temporary shelter, belongings to carry, etc… Neverwinter definitely has a deep understanding of this.
It can even be said that the cities ruled by the old aristocrats have no ability to complete a large-scale migration. Without strong strength and materials to support it, the so-called migration is just a road to death.
Indeed, most nobles don’t care about the life and death of commoners, but that’s only when commoners are “individuals”.
The taxation and rule of the lord are inseparable from the common people. If there is no one under the rule, no matter how powerful the power is, it will be meaningless.
Once these civilians find that they cannot benefit from the migration, they are bound to lose all hearts.
What’s more, gathering a large number of people together can easily lead to riots, so no matter how domineering and arrogant the nobles are, they will not easily do such amazing things.
But now it’s not just one nobleman doing this, but the whole north is doing it, obviously under the instigation of other forces.
The only one in the Kingdom of Eternal Winter who has the ability to do this is the devil.
“But why did the devil do this?” Edith said to herself suspiciously, “If you just want to weaken the war potential of Graycastle, you can kill all the civilians… If there are spider demons, even if the nobles don’t want to It’s impossible to stop it.”
“Maybe the devil thinks…they are still useful.” Dawn Chenguang tried to speculate.
“If it’s useful, you shouldn’t force them to move,” Hill shook his head. “Eternal Winter is the least large city among the four kingdoms. Even the royal capital can only accommodate 20,000 to 30,000 people without prior preparations, let alone them. The route of movement does not end in the capital.”
“The northernmost big city is…” Edith looked at the map.
“Xueying Castle is backed by the source of the Impassable Mountain Range, and its area is only half the size of the capital.” Filin immediately added relevant information, “Because of its unique terrain, the permanent population is lower, and it is also the first place where the red mist appears.”
“If the devil is going to move everyone here, it’s no different from killing them directly,” Hill said.
“And the enemy will never do anything superfluous,” Edith nodded in agreement, “I think there must be some unforeseen accident that caused the devil to take this seemingly inexplicable action.”
“Then what will happen?” Iron Ax asked.
“I don’t know…” Edith said slowly, “But it shouldn’t be good news. Let the front line be notified first and let them raise their vigilance.”
…
“This red cloud…could it be where the Devil’s Obelisk is?” Tilly murmured.
“No,” Lightning replied solemnly, “at this distance, we should not be able to see the red mist…”
“Can’t see? Why?”
“Because the red mist flows downward!” It was Maggie who answered her, “I have seen the fog pouring down from the edge of the Impassable Mountain, just like a waterfall!”
“That’s right, I don’t know if it’s because the red mist is heavier than the air, which makes it easier for them to gather at low altitudes, but one thing is certain, when the red mist invaded the Kingdom of Eternal Winter from the spine of the continent, there was not a single cloud on the top of the mountain. Red.” Lightning added.
“You mean, they flowed down the ravine at that time?” Tilly frowned.
That’s why she said that the red mist can’t be seen within this distance – now they are hundreds of kilometers away from the highest mountain range on this continent. If the red mist doesn’t rise, they will definitely be blocked by the mountains.
“More than that,” Lightning affirmed, “A month ago, I patrolled north along the Impassable Mountains, and I approached the edge of the red mist area, but at that time there was no such red cloud on the spine of the mainland. It… seems not to be As if rising from the Great Rift.”
Tilly couldn’t help feeling a chill rising from her back. At this moment, she also gradually noticed that the red on the mountain peak was not a thin layer, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.
com is a whole from top to bottom, more precisely, it is like a huge cloud pillar pouring down from the cloud.
She stared at the vision in front of her, and after a long silence, she opened her mouth and said, “There is a way that may allow us to see more clearly.”
Lightning raised his head and looked at the dark clouds above his head, “I think so too.”
The higher you fly, the farther you can see.
As long as they can take the spine of the continent into their eyes, it is possible to see the true face of the red cloud.
“In that case, let’s give it a try—” Tilly maximized the accelerator again, raised the nose of the aircraft and climbed towards the clouds, and Lightning followed closely beside the cockpit, trying to make the magic power synchronously cover Tilly .
Under the mutual cooperation of the two, the pointer of the altimeter on the Phoenix deflected to the end a little bit.
When it rose to an altitude of 7,500 meters, the earth had already shown an obvious arc, the dark clouds became intermittent and no longer a whole piece, and the edge of the earth also appeared a light blue.
There was dense sweat on Lightning’s forehead. Obviously, the high altitude had put a lot of burden on her coherence barrier. Through the glass window, Tilly found that there were patches of hoarfrost on the fuselage. If it wasn’t for the opponent She has been using magic coherence to alleviate her discomfort, and I am afraid she will not be able to concentrate on flying the plane like she is now.
“It’s almost there,” Tilly could clearly feel that the engine’s thrust was rapidly weakening, “let’s find a gap here.”
“Leave it to me!” Maggie poked her head out and changed into Hawkeye mode.
In about a quarter of an hour, she found an excellent viewing point—from the gap between the overlapping clouds, she could just see a short outline of the continent’s spine in the distance.
However, when the scene above the red mist was reflected in the bottom of the observation mirror, the three of them could hardly believe their eyes.
They saw a floating piece of land.
