Chapter 473: Festival Incident (1)
The sea off York.
The warship under the command of Mizuaki finally broke through the obstacles, and with the help of the steam turbine mounted on the ship, it escaped against the wind and escaped the pursuit, and headed for the mouth of the Lechhard.
The iron-clad hull was covered with dents, and if it had been an ordinary ship, it would have been beaten into sawdust by such a powerful artillery bombardment.
Of the twenty warships, only four were ironclad ships covered with iron sheets, and when the fleet encountered a surprise attack, only these four ships broke out of the encirclement.
However, during the subsequent escape, one ship was hit by a shell, causing a martyrdom and sinking.
One ship, unlucky, was hit by the rudder and was captured.
The last one volunteered to stay behind to stop the pursuers, so now only Shui Zhao's ship sailed into the Leichardt River and finally anchored in the harbor of Yorktown.
A telegram was sent back to Tavaré, and as expected, a large number of warships were blockading York City and Zipeva, in order to cut off the northern and central parts of the New World.
But what is the purpose of the other party?
Why cut off the shipping routes, instead of attacking York City and Zippewa directly?
Didn't you know that there was a telegraph link between York City and Tzippewa and Tavaré?
Hei Ye thought for a long time, and suddenly became enlightened, "Fabian, check the ship from the mainland that was supposed to arrive here, is it late? How long is it late?"
It takes about ten weeks to sail from Royol to Tavaré, and a delay of one week is usually within the normal range.
And the result given by Fabian is that the transport ships that are expected to arrive, with fixed routes, are already more than ten days late. Even more worrying is the fact that no native ships have arrived in Tavare for fifteen days.
Maybe it's not Yorktown that is blocked, it's Tavaret!
......
A third of the inhabitants of the hill town of Royol have migrated to the New World, making it seem that the people in the city are less intimate and have fewer opportunities to rub shoulders with others on narrow ramps.
However, on Hanukkah, the streets are still crowded with people.
Who would say no to a festival where you can sing, dance, and eat at will?
Jacques and the others arrived at Royol after the festivities began, and could only force their way through the crowd towards the temple at the top of the hill.
It was noon, and it was about to be the time when the God of Light would overwhelm Royol, and judging from the demeanor of the people on the roadside, Lin Jian's idea was really good.
With awe and fear, the inhabitants of Royol are excitedly waiting for their god to overwhelm them with spiritual power, reflecting the insignificance of God's great man on the one hand, and reminding everyone that Royol is still a land favored by God.
It took half an hour, and Jacques and the others had not yet reached the top of the mountain, but the temple bells began to ring, and the crowd immediately stopped, and the road that was still barely passable after being crowded was completely blocked.
Everyone waited quietly for the three bells to ring, covering the entire city's spiritual power.
"Knock! knock!"
A powerful spiritual power swept in, and Bai Jia released the coercion of spiritual power on time.
The coercion was about to last for a minute, and most of the people knelt down in the direction of the temple, so that they would not fall due to excessive physical exertion in the second half of the period, and a few people in the room chose to sit down, and only a very small number of powerful transcendents would stand and accept the impact of coercion.
Jacques and his party stood out from the crowd as they stood out on the kneeling streets.
However, just as Jacques looked up at the temple, a mutation took place.
An earth-shattering explosion came from the direction of the temple.
Now everyone is no stranger to the violent explosion of gunpowder, but at this time, it exploded, and it exploded when everyone was concentrating on resisting the spiritual pressure, and before the shock wave on the ground could be transmitted, many people in the crowd kneeling on the ground couldn't hold on and fell to the ground.
Bai Jia's spiritual power was also interrupted.
The shockwave hit, and the ground shook up and down.
All sorts of noisy crying sounds immediately erupted from the streets.
Something happened!
Startled, Jacques jumped onto the roof of a nearby house with a kick on his feet, and then ran and jumped on top of the roof, running towards the temple.
Lily followed, but with a farther leap and a more graceful posture than Jacques.
Jacques was faster, but he didn't let Lily catch up.
Two minutes later, the two landed together in front of the temple gate.
At this time, the gate was already crowded with divine guards, but they did not have the order of the priest, and they could not enter the temple without permission, so they could only do it at the door.
Originally, there were three priests guarding the door, but probably everyone else had gone to summon or check the situation, and only one person was guarding the door of the "Wako Gate".
This man happened to know Jacques and Lily, after all, the two had lived in the temple for many days, and he was about to stop and ask questions, but he saw two figures flash, one in front of the other, and then rushed in the direction of the black smoke.
"Ya...... ......The priest guarding the door was also helpless, "Hey, don't trespass, keep waiting for the order!
At the center of the explosion turned out to be the main hall of the newly renovated Temple of Light, and there was a lone person lying in the square at the entrance of the temple.
Jacques ran up to see that it was Han Yun, who had been appointed as the head manager. At this time, Han Yun's front was covered in blood, and his body was finely shredded, and he didn't know how many wounds he had cut, but it looked very similar to the air cut wound caused by the Qi Source Energy Technique.
Here?
Han Yun tried hard to open his eyes, saw Jacques's face, blinked a few more times, and finally determined that it was a real person in front of him, and hurriedly said weakly: "Quick! Bai Ye is trapped!"
Jacques sprang to his feet, his body leaping forward with the traction of his mental power, and he jumped to the top of the hall where the roof was broken and the smoke of embers was rising.
When I got to the roof, I saw a big hole that occupied almost half of the roof, and when I looked down from top to bottom, there was a translucent spherical light mask in the middle of the hall full of broken bricks and tiles, and in the middle of the light mask was Bai Ye, who was trying to beat the light mask.
Bai Ye, who was still wearing a long costume dress, released an attack on the light mask, but he was blocked by the light mask.
Why does this mask look so familiar?
Faint! Isn't this the forbidden formation that Graves has improved? the one that can block all the big dreams!
Just as Jacques wanted to get closer, a figure flew out of the large hole below, dressed in bright silver Mithril armor and covered with a helmet, and after taking off, he threw a wind net at Jacques without saying a word.
Hehe, Han Yun is injured under this source energy technique.
This person can fly, and when the source energy technique is used easily and casually, is it possible to be a grandmaster?
There are very few grandmasters in the Bright God Kingdom, and almost all of them are Bright Transcendent Priests' temples where a Qi Transcendent appears in the temple, even if he doesn't make a move, Jacques will be extremely wary of him.
The wind net was thrown out, and the corners of the grandmaster's mouth under the full mask armor were slightly upturned, the task of cleaning up the miscellaneous fish was too easy, in his opinion, the high-end combat power of the Bright God Kingdom was faulty, it was true that the Bright God Kingdom had a beast king-level powerhouse, but without a grandmaster, how could the plasticizer defeat the grandmaster!
Under the wind net, the young man who came to investigate on the roof must not be able to dodge, just like the young man just now, solve it with one blow!
However, he suddenly felt a flower in front of him, and the young man who had been blocked by the wind net suddenly disappeared!
Then there was a sharp pain in his back, then his chest, and when he looked down, through the gap in his helmet, he saw a long knife coming out of his chest, stirring from side to side, tearing the hole in the Mithril breastplate even wider.
There seemed to be a kick in the back, and the knife was pulled out of the body, but the person was also falling to the ground.
This Qi Sect Grandmaster didn't understand how he was defeated until he died.
