Chapter 579: 579

The New King

The sky was clear and the sea breeze was cool. The Endless Sea, Broken Islands.

The trade center and commercial pearl of the western seas were filled with tourists and thousands of sails. Gold coins and happiness flowed through it, and it was filled with desire and intoxication.

Every year, millions of people made a living here, and thousands of tourists came here to play. There were even many powerful and wealthy people who came here to have fun. There were also countless trade routes here to transit and create wealth.

Famous scenic spots, rare antiques, gorgeous manors, and delicacies from all over the world. As a trading hub, the culture was all-encompassing, full of creativity and vitality. It was the perfect holy land for tourism.

It was also a wonderful paradise for a small number of people.

Because this place was far away from other countries, it was not restricted by laws or morals. Money was the master, and power meant everything. Some islands that were only open to private guests were the most dreamlike paradise in the world. Wearing a special mask to hide your identity, you were the king of the island. You could enjoy all the unimaginable and even unimaginable fun on these islands.

Slaves, indulgence, banned drugs, group activities, killing performances, theme banquets… In these paradise that was only open to the richest and most powerful people, there was a dazzling array of extreme enjoyment. You could see many familiar people and things here, such as famous singers who had disappeared for a long time, the missing queen of a fallen country, and even elves and dwarves, regardless of gender or species.

Money was the master, life was insignificant.

Every year, there would be thousands of missing people on the Broken Islands. These were all workers who were attracted by the generous treatment. No one cared about their life and death. In front of the more powerful people, their lives were just tools for fun.

In any case, in the second year, there would be more outsiders who wanted to make a living to fill the gap. They thought that they would realize their dreams and win a good life in this prosperous and beautiful archipelago, but this was just a furnace, and they were all fuel.

The more prosperous a place was, the more sins, blood, and tears were hidden.

It had been less than a month since Kant had cast the Forbidden Spell near the Broken Islands.

When the forbidden spell fell from the sky and crashed into the sea near the archipelago, the waves that it raised almost flooded the entire sea area. Almost all the coalition fleets that were preparing to attack Goethe were destroyed. Everyone in the sea area, regardless of whether they were young or old, was baptized by the power and might of the forbidden spell, causing a lot of panic on the spot.

The tourists fled in a hurry, the workers stopped work in panic, and the businessmen were anxious to withdraw their investments. An unprecedented fear spread, but in less than a month, everything had returned to normal. The workers continued to work, the businessmen continued to make money, and the dignitaries continued to have fun.

“Drunken life, not knowing that death is coming…”

A faint sigh came from the Spell Caster’s apartment on Arkins Island.

A black-haired, yellow-skinned Aurora Spell Caster glanced at the clean room, then turned to look out the window and shook his head gently.

Outside, it was a lively and bustling scene. The white tower reflected the sun, ships entered the port, horns sounded, and joyful laughter interweaved. The quiet but happy ladies held umbrellas and marveled at what they saw.

“What are you talking about?”

Footsteps came from behind him. It was his good friend, a brown-haired mage. He was dressed like a proper city employee today. His black suit was ironed and his leather shoes were shiny.

” It’s better to dress up in a more ordinary way.” He spread his hands as he met his companion’s puzzled gaze.” At this time, whether it’s your identity as a Spell Caster or your face, it’s a little conspicuous.”

Although the fear of the forbidden spell seemed to have subsided, Kant, a native of Skyquaver, was still the most talked about person on the Broken Islands in the past few days. From the terrifying forbidden spell to the recent food that had fallen from the sky, to the discord between the dragon of Skyquaver and the Broken Islands, from the dock that was filled with vulgarities to the elegant and quiet high-class restaurants, there were discussions about Kant everywhere. This had even developed into ostracism against the people of Skyquaver.

“What were you sighing about?” he asked after explaining. Reluctant? Then why are you leaving?”

“No, it’s not that I can’t bear to.” Wizard Aurora said softly,” I’m talking about this city…I can see the shadow of war looming over us. This city is still indulging in the illusion of prosperity and arrogance. My friend, why don’t you leave with me?”

These two Spell Casters were Arcane Garrison Guards who served the Wizard Tower Array on the Broken Islands.

They had witnessed Kant’s Forbidden Spell, which had stirred up a tsunami and swept through the Broken Isles, during a shift mission more than twenty days ago.

The more Spell Casters who were dedicated to exploring the mysteries of the world, the more they could feel the overwhelming difference in power. From that day onwards, Wizard Aurora had made up his mind to leave.

He found the new king of Aurora.

Three days ago, when the contract expired, he did not choose to renew it. Instead, he completed the handover, received his salary, returned the equipment, and then ordered the ship tickets. It took him three days to go back and forth. Now, everything was ready. A merchant ship carrying sugar would set off later today for the distant port.

The captain had reserved a second-class cabin for him.

He was going to serve the new king.

The brown-haired, curly-haired mage hesitated for a moment before shaking his head and forcing a smile.” Forget it. You’re from his hometown and will be put in an important position there. I’m from the Empire. Think about it again. There’s nothing wrong with working here. You’ll get paid, the treatment will be good, and there will be discounts for entertainment and shopping. Kant might not be willing to see you if you go to the Far Harbor. Besides, you’re from the Broken Islands. You might even attract suspicion…”

Wizard Skyquaking said without hesitation,” It’s natural to be suspicious, but I can prove my innocence with my actions. I don’t need to meet His Highness Kant. From Han Zezheng to Hong San, two Skyquaking people have been put in important positions. This trend is quite obvious. His Highness Kant is recruiting talents. As long as they can show their value and work hard, they will definitely be able to stand out…”

“Furthermore…”

He paused for a moment and said in a low voice,” Besides, I didn’t go to His Highness Kant just to stand out. These days, I’ve seen my colleagues and passers-by looking at me with increasingly strange gazes and a faint rejection. It’s just like when I first arrived on this island. It’s because of my skin color, my hair color, and my background…Elric, in this sea, my compatriots and I will never be able to obtain true dignity.”

The brown-haired mage named Eric sighed.” Alright, May, my friend. If this is your decision, I can only wish you a safe journey. I hope you can get what you want…”

“That must be the case, Alec.” Mei smiled at his friend.” You…”

“I’m afraid you won’t be able to get it.” A sinister voice sounded from outside the door.

The two of them were shocked. In the next moment, a violent explosion sounded. Accompanied by a woman’s scream, the door and the wall were split open. Lightning flashed suddenly, and gray gas spread out from the broken poison bottle. Six shield guards rushed in with their anti-magic shields!

The moment the explosion happened, May and Elric immediately responded. They were good friends and partners who had worked together for a long time. The Nature Shield dispelled the electric snakes, the Hurricane Armor blew away the poisonous creatures, and the Aurora Mage retreated to the window. However, there was a team of crossbowmen waiting on the street outside the window. Elric pulled out his short protective staff and pointed five balls of shadow energy in the air. They surrounded him, and the Shadow Arrows were ready to be fired.

“I’m the Arcane Garrison Guard, a four-star expert, Alec…”he shouted.

Before he could say his name, a cold laugh came from behind the shield guard again.

The crowd parted, and two familiar faces appeared. The two mages frowned. The newcomer was their superior, the second mage of Argus Island, and the ” native ” of the Broken Islands. They had a natural arrogance and disdain for immigrants, and their relationship with the two was very bad.

The fully-armed mage held a crystal forging spell, and several icicles floated in the air and spun around him. His cold gaze looked at his former subordinate. We’ve already heard your words. Why are you abandoning your post at this time and thinking of going to Distant Harbor? Are you Kant’s spy? I have sufficient reason to suspect that you have obtained important intelligence!”

” I’ll arrest you!” He pointed his staff at the people from Aurora.” In the name of Argent’s legal department, I’ll arrest you!” Mei Xizhu from Skyquaking, surrender!”

“Impossible!” Elric shouted in shock. May had been in the Broken Islands for many years! Long before Kant had appeared in this world! How could he be…”

“Shut up.” The second mage glanced at him coldly.” Four-star Mage Elric, I order you to cooperate with the legal department and arrest the spy from Aurora! Awaiting interrogation!”

“I refuse!” said Eric angrily. I will protest to the Security Council…”

“Where’s the order to arrest me?” May asked calmly, holding back her companion’s anger.

The other party’s expression froze before he said,”You have no right to question this…”

“As expected!” “You’re using your position to take revenge! There’s no arrest warrant at all. You used your position to take revenge on Mei…”

“Enough!”

“Arrest warrant?”roared the wizard. Based on what he had just said, based on his plans and actions, the Security Council would not have any objections if they killed him here! Anyone who stood with Kant was an enemy of the Broken Islands! They’re all threats to us!”

His face was twisted in anger, but it also flickered with a resentful pleasure.

He looked at Mei Xizhu and suddenly sneered,”So what if I’m using my official position to take revenge? I have conflicts and personal grudges with you. I feel that you are very suspicious as a citizen of Aurora. I noticed your whereabouts, noticed that you resigned and left, and bought a ticket to Far Harbor. I suspect that you are Kant’s spy. I suspect that you have collected a lot of confidential information about the Broken Islands and are preparing to present it to your master. Therefore, I reported it to the Security Council. Therefore, I immediately led my subordinates to intercept and arrest you. What’s wrong with this process?”

“Even if I use my power to take revenge, what can you do?”

” What can you do?” His face was gloomy, and he revealed a smile of revenge.” So, what can you do?” If you resist, I will immediately kill you on the spot. Of course, you can also choose to surrender. I will throw you into prison and let my impartial, iron-blooded, and wise uncle interrogate you. Don’t worry, if you are innocent, we will definitely return you justice and freedom. Hahahahaha!”

“Shameless!”Alec was trembling with anger.

“Shameless? This was power! This was power! This is the difference between a noble like me and lowly outsiders like you! We are the ones who set the rules, we are the rulers of the Broken Islands!

If you outsiders want to enjoy the wealth and freedom of the Broken Islands, you have to kneel! Kneel down!”

He stared fixedly at Mei Xizhu, trying to use words to break down his fighting spirit, trying to use a predicament to make this damned Skyquaker show a look of despair and make him beg for mercy. The mage smiled malevolently.” How do you feel? How do you feel, Skyquaker pig? If you kneel down and beg for mercy now, I might be able to let you suffer less. That’s right, beg me! You can only pray to me!”

He made a hand gesture, and the Shield Guard slowly moved forward. The Mage circulated his magic power and summoned the ice crystals. This Skyquaker was a troublesome Spell Caster, and so was his companion, Elric. However, he was not afraid, because as long as these two people dared to resist, he could order people to kill them on the spot!

“Beg! Kneel!”

“Because I’m your god now! The controller of your life and future! My will determine your pain and life! Other than me, who else can you count on? Do you really think that Lord Kant, whom you want to seek refuge with, will come and save you?

Let me tell you, the Broken Islands aren’t afraid of him! We will definitely win! I’ll drive all of you evil citizens of Aurora back to your filthy and rancid homeland, I…”

In the next moment, a loud rumble came from the sky.

In an instant, the mage towers of the twelve main islands activated their main control arrays at the same time. The massive fortress defense system of the Broken Isles was fully operational. The patrolling fleet sounded their sirens, and streaks of magical light shot into the sky. A huge elemental shock wave swept across the sea, and the concentration of elements in the local area rapidly lost balance!

Highest alert!

The noise outside the window instantly fell silent, and then an even more violent scream rang out. The second mage was shocked and angry. What the f * ck is going on?”

“My lord!”

A shield guard exclaimed and pointed out of the window. From here, he could see the largest pier of Argus Island and even the vast sea in the east. This magnificent scenery was like an oil painting that had always fascinated tourists. Now, the calm and magnificent sea was surging with clouds and clouds, and the black space door suddenly opened!

A silver-white warship reflected the dazzling sunlight and jumped out of the phase gate!

It was as if a snow-white blade had split open the blue sea and set off waves!

“That’s-”

It was a huge sailless warship made of steel.

There was only one ship in the world.

It belongs to…

“Kant!”

At this moment, all the islands in the Broken Sea Area cried out in alarm at the same time. In an instant, the sky and earth turned dark, and there was silence. Only the air-defense alarm of the Knight Astolford resounded throughout the islands!

The Horizon class frigate slashed through the waves and roared forward.

Passing by the bustling docks and the panicked ships, the huge figure was like an ancient disaster, casting a terrifying shadow on the sea and land. The valkyrie attracted everyone’s attention. The 10,000-ton ship charged forward as if it had entered an uninhabited land.

She passed through the blockade of the mage towers, through the casting area of the magic bombardment, the heavy island defense magic device, the fortress-level ray focusing device, the elemental illumination of the mage towers, the emergency formation of the guard warships, and the defense system of the Broken Islands that had been operated for hundreds of years and built with countless wealth. All the sharp edges were constantly pointed at this warship. The sudden attack was enough to annihilate a powerful elven fleet, and the warship advanced fearlessly under such a threat.

It was like taking a walk in the back garden.

There were no ripples.

It was as if the highest alert had not been issued.

The seemingly perfect, fierce, and terrifying island defense system had not been activated.

From the beginning to the end, the Broken Islands remained silent.

He allowed this uninvited guest with strong hostility to cut through the waves.

This was because the other party had not launched an attack.

Therefore, they must not act rashly.

The nobles looked at the atmospheric perspective map, the mages used Eagle Eye, and the mortals climbed higher. Everyone watched the warship silently as it sailed towards the central island.

The landing point of the Broken Islands.

It was the center of the entire sea, the place where power, authority, and wealth gathered. There stood twelve bronze statues of the twelve pioneers who built the Broken Islands. It was a glorious and grand square that was only open to the public during celebrations.

” I am Kant.”

“I’m speaking to the Broken Islands.”

The calm voice was sent far away by the strong wind and echoed in the archipelago in a way that people could not understand.

” There are a total of 625 members of the Broken Islands, from Lockster-Vuitton onwards. Half a month ago, they participated in the bid to raise the price of grain in Blue Wave Province. I have ordered the execution of all participants and the forfeit of all the property and stolen money of the Broken Islands in Blue Wave Province as the cost of the execution.”

“I came here today to tell you why I hit you.”

” I demand that the Broken Islands apologize for this, arrest and pursue all those involved and decision-makers, and provide sufficient compensation to compensate for the losses of the innocent citizens of the Blue Wave Province.”

” Apart from that, since the Broken Islands have repeatedly expressed their hostility towards me, I have already prepared to launch a conquest operation against all of you. I will end your arrogance and sins once and for all. I will give you three days to consider, submit to me, or destroy all of you.”

“Choose for yourself.”

With that, a huge red box suddenly appeared in the sky.

Then, the steel shell suddenly collapsed, and blood, fragments, and limbs fell from the sky along with Job’s screams. They fell into the most sacred Pioneer Square in the Broken Islands, and internal organs hung all over the Pioneer statues. Blood stained the white floor, and pieces of flesh fell into the fragrant flower beds. In an instant, the clean and sacred square became a terrifying garden.

Kant’s voice remained calm.

“These are the bodies of the prisoners. The family members can come and collect them themselves. They are all here.”

Dead silence.

There was nothing but dead silence.

In an instant, countless important figures were cursing or crying loudly in their respective fortresses. The mages turned pale and ended their Eagle Eye Vision. Most of the mortals did not even know what was going on. However, no matter how they expressed their views, the sea where the steel warship was located remained calm.

After a moment, Kant’s voice rang out again.

“No one wants to hit me?”

After a while, he spoke again.

“Why don’t you just surrender?”

After waiting for a while, a disdainful laugh rang out.

“Heh.”

The Realm Gate opened, and the silver warship disappeared at the end of the folded space.

The Broken Islands remained silent.

“Pa.”

The slap was loud.

The second mage of Argus Island looked at May in disbelief. He covered his swollen face. He was first shocked, then his eyes twisted and crazy. His magic power was raging.” You…”

“Get lost.”

The voice of the people from Aurora was as calm as ever, but it seemed different from before.

It was like a sword with bones.

The mage seemed to have understood Mei’s change and reliance. His eyes flashed with ferocity as he roared,” Attack!” Take him down! I order you to take him down!”

The shield guards looked at each other with hesitation. After seeing the previous scene, they already felt uneasy about this operation-attacking the people of Skyquaking was not a very wise thing to do.

“What are you hesitating about? Was he Kant? Did Kant know him? Using Kant’s name to come and go freely in the Broken Islands?” The mage shouted, but his eyes were flickering.” He…”

“Enough.” Mei Xizhu said calmly,” If you’re more interested in the news from Distant Harbor, you should know one thing. His Highness Kant is extremely lenient to the civilians of Distant Harbor. He gave out food for free and was furious when he raised the price of food. But he’s not a Goethe. Do you understand what I mean?”

“He can be so kind and generous to a distant person who has nothing to do with him, let alone me, who is of the same race as him? What do you think His Highness Kant will do if you kill me here or let me die in prison? Do you think I didn’t send a letter before I went to the distant port? Do you dare to bet on this? Do you think your uncle or the island masters would dare to gamble?”

” Do you think that killing me here will give His Highness Kant more excuses and even ruin the plans of the island masters? How will you be dealt with?”

“Now, get lost.”

Messi Zhu strode towards the door. Like a steel battleship strolling through the island defense system of the Broken Islands, he also calmly passed through the blockade of the Shield Guards. When he reached the broken door, he turned to look at his friend.” Are you coming?”

“Damn it!” Alec gritted his teeth. Come!”

May smiled.

Indeed, as he thought, Aurora had a new king.

What was a king?

He was sure that His Highness Kant did not know him, and he was also sure that he had not sent any news to the distant harbor. He was also not sure if His Highness Kant would go to great lengths to find out about his disappearance. Even now, even though His Highness Kant had sailed away, the supreme deterrence projected on this place still existed like an illusion, protecting people like him from the invasion and malice of the alien races.

It allowed him to walk here and face every pair of shocked eyes with ease.

It was as if that omnipotent and powerful figure had always been standing behind him, displaying his dignity, determination, strength, and will to protect.

The only one who could do this was the new king of Aurora.
