Thousands of miles away from Amen, the city of CanSo.
As it is located in the southeast coast, compared with yamen, which has four distinct seasons, the climate of CanSo city can be described as changing. It was sunny one second ago, and it was not uncommon to turn around and pour rain. There is even a scene of rain in the East and sunny in the West.
Especially at this time of year, the tropical storm formed in the falling star sea will visit CanSo once or twice a year, and everyone has long been used to it.
Today, the sky is still cloudy, just like the night, with rumbling thunder from time to time. The air is so oppressive that people can't breathe. The heat and humidity are torture.
As we all know, there will be a heavy rain soon.
The players who were waiting to board the ship in the port returned to the hotel disappointed, or lined up copies or chatted nonsense, because no captain dared to go to sea in this weather, it was not an adventure, it was simply death.
However, it is obvious that the soldiers staying on the wall cannot enjoy the leisure brought by good wine.
There is no great threat in the north of CanSo city. It is close to Tianjian mountain. There is only a dense jungle under the mountain. Although they have heard of the presence of tree elves, they will not pose any threat to CanSo city.
In the west, the situation is different.
From the map, there is a piece of land protruding to the sea in the west of CanSo City, which is similar to a small peninsula.
This area is called the "Cape of the sea". There are many lizard people living there. These guys are basically no different from bandits and mountain bandits.
Lizard people will definitely bear the brunt of the selection of the creatures that CanSo people most want to destroy the family.
The Cape of Wanghai is not big, but the soil and climate are most suitable for citrus growth, so there are many villages where orange trees are planted.
Lizard people often rob villages or roads, but because the terrain of the Cape of the sea is complex and similar to swamps, it is difficult for the army to go in and destroy it directly. It is really a headache.
Therefore, the soldiers who patrol on the city wall mostly focus on the West. They should always pay attention to the distress signals that may fly into the sky and send rescue in time.
"In this terrible weather, I'm soaked under my armor!"
A soldier complained, and his companion quickly motioned to shut up. Because the officer is nearby, he doesn't want to be scolded.
The ghost weather complained about by people will not last long. With a gust of breeze, raindrops fall one after another and become heavier and heavier. Soon, the heavy rain obscured the line of sight.
In the pouring rain, almost everyone became blind. Only with the help of the occasional flash across the sky can we barely see some.
At this time, the soldiers had no time to complain, because it was obviously a more uncomfortable experience to let the rain pour in through the crack of the armor than the muggy weather.
However, as the saying goes, military orders are like mountains. Let alone rain, even if knives are dropped from the sky, they can't leave their duties without orders.
Besides complaining, it's not without benefits.
In today's weather, the kitchen will prepare hot broth to drive out the cold and replenish the strength of the soldiers. It's more or less a comfort.
The distant wilderness was hidden in darkness and rainstorm, and all other sounds were covered by pouring rain and never-ending thunder. The dirt road outside the city becomes soft and slippery with the naked eye. It's easy to step on it with one foot, but it's difficult to pull it out again.
While complaining, the soldiers can't help praying for the brothers who have to go out on patrol in this weather, hoping that they can find a shelter before the rain is heavy. It's too bad to encounter lizard people in the rainstorm.
"Hey! Is there something in the distance?"
"Don't be surprised. The officer has just left."
After listening to his colleagues, the soldiers seemed dissatisfied. At this time, a thunder flashed across the sky, and the fuzzy image in the hazy rain entered the soldiers' vision.
They look roughly like human shapes, but they are more like distorted shadows. They can't really see what it is.
Another flash of lightning flashed across. This time, the soldiers saw clearly that those shadows were almost everywhere. Although they were still a little away from the city, they were very close.
The deep darkness came again. It seemed that it was a long time, or maybe it was just a beat of the heart. The lightning pierced the sky again tirelessly. The soldiers finally saw the dark shadows. They were shadow demons!
The harsh alarm echoed over the city of CanSo, and almost everyone jumped up like a fire. Few people noticed that several distress signals were shot into the sky in the direction of the Cape of the sea, but even if they noticed, CanSo city might not be able to send someone to rescue immediately.
Far away on the other side of CanSo, the most powerful city in lopven.
Julian breathed a sigh of relief and indulged in stretching hard on the luxury chair. He didn't care to take the cup of long cold black tea, closed his eyes and rested with his temples.
He was overwhelmed by days of work and had to deal with more things than planned.
But this is only temporary. After this busy period, Julian can at least get a day or two free and have a good rest.
It was pouring rain outside the window. The noise of raindrops was not annoying, and Julian didn't care about it. It was just that the occasional roaring thunder made the overused brain tingle, which was very uncomfortable.
It has been on-line with the light of the stars, and is ready to get rid of the magic melody at any time. The aristocracy is also relatively stable recently. Julian deliberately pushed a Lengtou Qing with some ability and ideas to carry out the so-called reform. Recently, many spearheads have shifted their direction, and Julian has a rare stability.
And the problem of wojin temple
Julian doesn't think that the light of the stars can find enough evidence to bring them down. Even if there is practical evidence that the wojin temple is related to the devil, they can directly say that it's just personal behavior. They must strictly investigate Balabala
Basically, they are useless official tunes, but Julian is also very clear that the woking temple can never be expelled from lopven, so it's better to support tyre's church, at least playing balance tactics is safer.
He has just received news recently that a group of adventurers have successfully found the master of Amen city. As long as he returns to Amen, the wojin Temple must express something, or he will be driven out by the angry people.
And will the city Lord give the waukin temple a chance to make peace? He has been unhappy with the four temples in the city for a long time. With such a handle, he may take this opportunity to get the wojin Temple out of Amen city.
No matter what he did, it was a loss to the woking temple, and it was Julian's opportunity.
The bishop of tyre church disappeared first and was later confirmed dead, but even tyre, the God of justice, could not determine who killed the bishop.
The absence of a regional bishop was a great blow to the Tyr church, which also made the woking Church in the city very popular. Even though woking's church was well versed in the way of making a lot of money, this was an irrefutable fact.
As the saying goes, Julian's balance strategy must be more slippery than the Lord of Amen.
Thinking about how to strive for more benefits for himself, Julian immediately heard a heavy and rapid footsteps.
The voice was so distinctive that Julian couldn't forget it.
"Boss! Boss!"
Sure enough, the barbarian Tom slammed open the door of the office, and his voice could be heard all over the city.
"Tom, keep your voice down. You're hurting my head."
But the barbarian completely ignored Julian's instructions and continued to shout in a loud voice:
"Boss, something big has happened!"
"Ah?"
"Many demons suddenly appeared outside the city, and the people were very frightened."
"Demon!?"
Now Julian was completely awake, but he was also completely confused.
Well, how can there be demons?
Is it that the temple of wojin and the magic melody are plotting to summon the devil to the mortal world?
When you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem quite right. After all, the last demon invasion was not long ago. Unless there was the scale of the last time, these demons could threaten the villages outside the city. It's not enough to be afraid of a big city like lopven.
He settled down and was about to make a detailed inquiry. A breathless messenger rushed into the office:
"Report, 17 counties in the north have sent distress signals. They say there are demons outside the city!"
A thunderbolt flashed, and Julian suddenly felt that all this seemed to be the beginning of something big.
–‐‐——–‐‐——
Similar situations have been staged all over the world. Except for Amen, which has made preparations in advance, almost all mortal cities have found traces of demons.
The sudden appearance of the devil without warning plunged the mortal world into a certain panic, but the soldiers and players who rushed up the wall with guys soon found that the devil's target did not seem to be the city.
They did appear outside the city, but they seemed to have no interest in the city. Although they could still receive reports of attacks on villages, the demons were more likely to gather in sparsely populated areas.
This unusual move not only did not reassure ordinary people, but made them more worried.
It is no accident that demons are so organized and planned. Obviously, they are planning something, and people don't know what it is.
Our protagonist an Yizhi, who is far away in the sea nationality territory, also knows nothing about what happens on land. He hasn't discussed this post on the forum. He was still bothering about Nikula's words until just now.
Nigu is crazy. No one knows what he is thinking, but his obsession with the apprentice is also quite terrible. If it's not really necessary, he won't leave such a message for an Yizhi.
But an took out the magic ring that had become an ornament and looked over and over, but he didn't see its usefulness. Just considering that Nigu would never shoot for no reason, he found a thin rope to wear the magic ring on it and hang it around his neck.
This makes the neck with the petrochemical Eye Necklace and the source of magic pendant a little bloated. It is said that although only one necklace can be worn, there is no limit to how many strange things can be hung around the neck. In the future, find 180 strange things to hang around the neck, and the combat effectiveness must soar very terrible.
It's just that the image is not very good. It's a bit like the logo of Michelin tire
