Chapter 606: 606

For the Radio!

After many days, the long whistle sounded again in the distant port.

The speakers in the streets, alleys, squares, and other areas, as well as the portable radio in the taverns, shops, and restaurants, all sounded the same voice.” Audition! Audition! I am the Mayor of Far Harbor, Hong San. I am speaking to all the citizens. All citizens, please put down the work that you are not in a hurry and listen carefully.”

Faraway Harbor’s urban planning was far from the point of building a power plant or setting up a power grid. The electrified process had yet to begin, but Kant had already started the Big Brother Plan ahead of time.

The portable battery-operated radio was a free gift to the owners of casinos, taverns, shops, and other shops. They had also signed a strict confidentiality and safekeeping plan with the owners. After all, the bodies of the nobles hanging in various parts of Distant Harbor had not yet cooled down. Kant had a deep reputation, and he could not tolerate the small self-employed people saying no.

As for the speakers and screens, they were powered by automatic diesel generators.

The broadcast tower project was also in preparation.

Through these speakers that were spread throughout the Far Harbor, Kant could project his voice and will directly to every individual citizen, allowing these muddleheaded and confused citizens to hear a better voice.

The various radio programs that were being prepared in the early stages also had the same purpose.

It was an imperceptible ideology.

He planted a seed in their hearts, watered and fertilized it, and waited for the day it grew.

Now, it was time to water and apply fertilizer.

Hearing the mayor’s voice, the people on the street were stunned. Then, they began to look for the nearest listening spot in an orderly manner. Some people went into the quiet tavern, while more people gathered under the broadcast speakers in the square or on the street. Those who were well-off went to the restaurants they frequented with their friends.

They had already developed a habit of listening to the radio when it sounded.

A few days ago, Kant had announced the distribution of grain through the radio. He had announced the public trial of the nobles who had raised the price of grain, the recruitment notice, and even the distribution of grain and money.

No one knew that the despicable Skyquaking Dragon had used an evil Pavlov spell, causing the residents under his rule to have a terrible conditioned reflex. Even if the horn didn’t sound normally, people would often hang around the horn, hoping to hear something.

Now that the broadcast was out, everyone felt a strange sense of relief.

Finally, they thought.

At the Crocodile Tavern in the dock area, the tightly shut door was pushed open roughly, and a loud voice rang out. Robbie! Quickly take your…”

Scarface, who had rushed in, shut his mouth because the counter was surrounded by people. Everyone turned their heads and glared at him with unfriendly gazes, including the two stout waitresses who knew how to play and had high noses.

Normally, when faced with such a situation, Tex would definitely grab the collar of the person closest to him and break his nose. He was not someone to be trifled with.

But this time, he shrunk his neck in embarrassment under everyone’s resentful gazes. He lowered his voice out of habit.” Jim, you saved a seat for me, didn’t you?”

The owner behind the bar poured a glass of sweet wine and waved at him.

Tex closed the door behind him and trotted over. The customers around him made way for him. They huddled together and stared intently at the small square box on the bar counter.

One side was black and the other was white. There was also a handle. The upper right part was a piece of transparent glass. There was a pointer and a row of scales inside. Below it were three rows of beautiful small words.

Listener.

It was produced by Siegel Company.

The Crocodile Bar for Mr. Jim.

As usual, there was a knife next to the radio. Behind the knife was the taciturn tavern owner, which led to the new rule of the Crocodile Tavern: whoever touched the radio, I would cut off their claws.

The Crocodile Tavern, which was usually noisy and noisy, was silent. Liquor was banned today. No one was allowed to get drunk because it meant noise and disputes. If the radio was damaged because of this, he would be blacklisted forever in the Crocodile Tavern-after compensation.

Tex grabbed his glass of rum and stared at the radio without tasting it.

The tavern was quiet. Only the sound of people’s breathing could be heard.

A moment later, Mr. Mayor’s voice sounded on the radio.

” In the name of His Highness Kant, I hereby announce the following news to all citizens of Distant Harbor and the evacuated citizens of the Broken Islands-”

After hearing this, everyone could not help but straighten their backs.

Everyone had already come up with some rules based on the simple wisdom of the people. For example, when a speech or announcement was made with Kant’s name, there were usually only three situations.

His Highness Kant had given out money and food. His Highness Kant had hired short-term workers. His Highness Kant was about to kill someone.

They were good news, great news, and great excitement.

But this time was different.

“.. While our ships were evacuating the citizens from the Broken Islands, the frenzied Broken Islands Island Lord Union broke the ancient demon seal and released countless evil creatures from the bottom of the sea.”

The people who were listening attentively to the broadcast were all stunned.

” Evil creatures?” Tex muttered.

He once again received the attention of all the customers. Jim put his hand on the hilt of the knife.

“My bad…”Tex shrunk his head.

“.. These cruel monsters attacked our ships and the innocent residents, tourists, crew members, and merchants of the Broken Islands. So far, many islands are about to fall, and thousands of people have died. The monsters that came out of the deep sea are endless. They rushed onto the ships and climbed onto the beach, tearing at the fresh flesh and devouring the fleeing people…”

The broadcast media was getting worse and worse on Earth, but in the other world, it was too new. Even if it was just a verbal description without any images, people still listened attentively and tried their best to imagine what that terrifying scene was.

“.. During this period, the Broken Islands ‘defense system launched an attack on our fleet. Without declaring war, they revealed the connection between the island masters and the evil creatures.”

Immediately, after a short period of shock, curses erupted. Not only the Crocodile Tavern, but everyone in the entire Far Harbor who heard the broadcast began to curse in unison.

” I knew it. Those damned pigs must have bad intentions!”

” Damn it!” Tex slammed the table and roared,” His Highness Kant should have wiped them off the surface of the sea with a forbidden spell!”

” So far, the Broken Islands have suffered heavy casualties. A large number of innocent people have been bitten and devoured by monsters. The beautiful islands have been occupied by monsters. The island defense fleet of the Broken Islands has almost been wiped out. The sinister plot of the evil island masters can be said to have shot themselves in the foot…”

The abuse turned into a satisfying venting. They deserved it!”

“Then our fleet…” Manager Jim frowned.

Tex waved his hand.” Come on, Jim. That’s not our fleet. It’s the elves, the council, and the Empire. The fleet from the Far Harbor returned the day before yesterday…”

The mayor’s voice sounded from the radio.” However, at this critical moment, the combined fleet responsible for the evacuation of the Broken Islands, including the naval warriors of the White Snow Peak, the Evergreen Song, the Floating Light Flying Shadow, and the Azure Wrath, with their tenacious fighting spirit and outstanding combat skills, stood firm under the frenzied siege of the sea monsters. In the end, they persisted until the Knight Astolford arrived…”

” Our Fu used his fierce artillery and invincible strength to split the waves and tear apart countless sea monsters. He saved all the crew members of the four warships in the dangerous Broken Sea Area. Not only that, but he also destroyed the island defense system that the Broken Islands were proud of with his powerful firepower and attacked the central island!”

“I hereby pay my respects to the brave soldiers of the Combined Fleet and the mighty Astolford! I would also like to thank Your Highness Kant for all the efforts you have put in to save our great young man!”

Cheers and whistles rang out. The mayor’s words easily stirred the audience’s emotions. They imagined the dangerous sea, the people who fought unyieldingly, and the heroic valkyrie of the Knight Astolford, who sounded the siren and cut through the waves like a valkyrie…This blood-boiling scene made them equally excited, wishing they could replace him with their bodies.

“Did you hear that, Jim? We should also be…”

Before Tex could finish, he was glared at by the boss and swallowed the rest of his sentence.

” Under the cover of the Astolford, the brave navy soldiers rushed to the central island and defeated the island’s defense army. Under the command of His Highness Kant, they captured the enemy’s nest and the sea-suppressing fortress. The brave soldiers captured the culprit who summoned the underwater demon alive…”

“But…”

” But the summoning ritual is almost complete. The sea has become very dangerous. Our brave soldiers are trapped on the central island of the Broken Islands.” The mayor’s voice became heavy.

At this moment, through the wonderful medium of broadcasting, all the audiences seemed to be in a theater, affected by the actors ‘performance. Their words and actions made them happy and worried. It was like a bard’s story. A warrior who had completed his final mission and defeated evil was trapped in the enemy’s nest. He looked at the enemies coming from all over the mountains and raised the sword in his hand with a smile…

“We have to save them!”

” Captain!” someone shouted, and everyone responded immediately. The same voice rang out in every corner of the city. The impatient ones had already begun to urge him. Tex jumped up and shouted,” Does anyone know the captain?” We’ll buy his boat! Count me in!”

After that, his shouting instantly subsided, because the mayor continued to speak.

” According to my calculations, the possibility of rescue at sea is almost zero. The Broken Sea is filled with monsters, and even the strongest warships can’t easily approach. The demons at the bottom of the sea can break out at any time, and the entire Broken Islands might be destroyed by that evil creature…”

The low tone seemed to indicate the difficulty of the rescue and the end of the warriors. People’s expressions darkened, and the sentimental waitress began to wipe her tears.

“-but!”

The passionate voice rang out once again, as if it was facing the waves and the strong wind. The unyielding, brave, and advancing strength was soaring. The mayor said passionately,” But His Highness Kant will not give up on any of his soldiers, and neither will Distant Harbor give up on any of its companions. The Aurora Dragon has already ordered the Distant Harbor City Hall to set up an emergency rescue committee. We will bring our good young man back at all costs!”

Before the audience could digest the information, Hong San continued to shout,” It is no longer possible to evacuate by sea. Therefore, His Highness Kant has formulated the largest evacuation by air in history!”

“In three hours, a large magic aircraft carrying a thousand people will depart from the Broken Islands and arrive at the Far Harbor in an hour and twenty minutes at the latest! His Highness Kant’s unparalleled alchemy skills will build a bridge in the air and save innocent lives from danger and death!”

Whistles and cheers filled the air with a joyous atmosphere, as well as praise and support for His Highness Kant. No one in Far Harbor doubted the abilities of the Dragon of Skyquaking. This was because the consecutive victories over the past month had already imprinted a steel seal of trust on the souls of the people of Far Harbor.

“But I need your help!”

The cheers stopped. People reminded each other to keep quiet and listened and waited without thinking.

“We need to save the wounded, so please report to the authorities of the distant port! We need to build an airport outside Faraway Harbor City that is large enough to dock large-scale magic-powered aircraft, so please report to us!”

“In addition, we also need enough workers and volunteers to quickly deploy tents, campfires, kitchen, and first aid in the temporary settlement! Not only do we have to save our soldiers, but we also have to save all the innocent civilians on the Broken Islands!”

From excitement to shock.

Whispers rang out in the tavern.” Why did you save those people from the Broken Islands?” Tex frowned. They didn’t follow the fleet back and stayed there. They must be the lackeys of the island masters. Let them die there! Wasting precious manpower and resources…”

” You may be questioning why we have to rescue people who have nothing to do with us. You may not understand why we have to care about these ‘enemies,’ but let me ask you, why did His Highness Kant interfere in the war between the elves and Goethe? Why did His Highness Kant send food to the distant port for free?”

” The Goethe people are proud of their morality, discipline, and chivalry. Our former king helped each other and supported the weak, so we established the Goethe of today on the wild West Coast. This country was established by helping the weak and protecting the good. So now, we must find the spirit of our ancestors! There is no reason to save innocent lives. If there is a reason, it is that we can do it!”

“We can do it, so we’ll save them! This wasn’t just His Highness Kant’s decision. It should be the decision of all the people from afar! Protect the weak, fight against the strong, defend justice, and pursue faith. This should become the spirit of Distant Harbor, and the creed of every Distant Harbor person who is willing to follow His Highness Kant!”

” So don’t ask what benefits this has for us. The satisfaction of protecting the weak and saving the innocent is the greatest reward. This is not an order but a suggestion. I hope that all those who have the ability will step forward and complete the most benevolent and greatest feat in hundreds of years-the Great Retreat of the Broken Islands!”

Hong San’s resolute voice echoed in the sky above Distant Harbor.

” Therefore, I appeal to anyone who has the ability, professional knowledge, and strength to sign up and participate in this rescue operation. Play your part!”

” We have prepared the highest respect and insignificant rewards for the volunteers who have stepped forward. Two silver coins a day, free food supply, and your selfless behavior will be recorded in your citizen files, so that you will benefit from it in the future!”

” Also, during this operation, we will officially introduce the currency that His Highness Kant has specially issued. With this currency, you can buy all kinds of goods that His Highness Kant has specially provided that are not in circulation in the market. The instant noodles, biscuits, sausages, and even more delicious food that you can’t forget, and…”

“A portable radio!”

“More and better products will be available in the future!”

” Good citizens of Distant Harbor, take action. For Goethe’s ancient chivalry, for the beauty, selflessness, and dedication of human nature, for faith and ideals, take action!”

The Crocodile Tavern was silent.

In an instant, there was the sound of a human figure. Tex was like a bull as he charged out of the door. The customers then came to a realization and rushed out in a hubbub!

For the radio!

[PS 1: Upgraded!] Sigh, what’s the point of betting on time? If you have the ability, then bet on the number of words. How about it? Is there anyone who wants to continue betting today? (Distant)
