Chapter 924: Overnight Departure

The sun rises above the sea in the east, and the space gates in the sky are no longer so dazzling.

Many citizens gathered at the port, and they heard that there would be a ship back to land today, and that if everything was safe to start, the people on the island would be evacuated.

The space gate in the sky has grown to nearly a kilometer in diameter, and is slowly descending from the sky to the ground.

Many people have tried a lot of ways and used a lot of means, but they have not been able to stop it.

If it hadn't been left behind, Charles had come up with a way to defuse the crisis in a less troublesome way.

It would be good to open another space door to the fire elemental realm under the space gate in the sky, door to door, so that those dead spirits would fall into the opposite side and be burned to death as soon as they came out.

If you don't go around in a big circle, the necromancers go out, no matter which way they go, it's the door to the fire elemental realm.

It's just that he made calculations in a short period of time, and came to the conclusion that the "power" of this space gate leading to the necromantic realm is too great, and the space door he made out will be interfered with and invalid when it wants to cover or surround it at close range.

This is not a problem of insufficient energy, but the specifications of the space doors on both sides are different, and many details are different.

The space door sold by the devil to Charles is only a gateway to various elemental subspaces, which is equivalent to a pedestrian bridge, and it is no problem to walk some people and bring some goods.

According to Alexei's research, in order to extinguish the fires in the Flame Hell Basin, it is necessary to set up a large number of space gates on the surrounding mountains, which is an extremely complex and difficult system engineering.

And now, although this spatial gate in the sky is also derived from the devil, it is extremely strong, equivalent to a bridge that can pass over overloaded trucks.

However, Charles still wanted to make an effort, using the energy of the island to control the rain magic array, and build a space gate of the traffic fire elemental realm above the space gate leading to the necromantic realm, so that the necromancers who came out of it could pass the fire first.

????????????

Time goes back to last night.

Before the Reimu projected them to deliver the oracle, Ru Cabbage and Liao Ke Xingdun realized that the situation was not right and immediately slipped away.

In a town near the mouth of the river near the mouth of the river next to a large port on the north bank, the weak lights only keep the undrunk from hitting their heads against the wall.

The door of a bar was open, and the light from the door barely illuminated the sign with three white iron anchors.

The only thing in the bar was the sound of the bard's piano for a free dinner, and the few tables of guests were drinking sullen wine.

At the table in the corner, a middle-aged man sat next to the wall.

His beard was unshaven, his eye sockets were deep, and his godless eyes were motionless, and he looked like he was dead.

He is indeed not far from death, he has struggled for more than ten years, and in March this year, he just took out a loan from the Chaowei Blue Dragon Consortium to buy five ships to form a fleet to run the sea, but before he could recruit all the people, he encountered an undersea earthquake and the ensuing suspension of shipping.

In this case, there is no income, no one is willing to take over, and others are not willing to borrow money, and the repayment of the loan in the first three months has already made his cash empty.

He is not starving to death now, and the owner of the bar has ordered him food every day for the sake of more than ten years of old customers.

It was the 8th at dawn, and there were still two days left before the repayment date on the 10th, and he couldn't see the slightest hope that he could come up with the money to repay.

If he doesn't pay the money by then, then all that awaits him is to be captured by the dragon and sold as a slave.

Most of the people in the town make a living by sea, and there are many people like him, especially those who have a large family to support, a seriously ill family at home, and a newborn child who is also in trouble.

Fortunately, in recent years, because of the rise of the textile industry, river transportation has made great progress, and a small number of people who have access to the river can still run with the river transportation boats and eat together, but those who do not have a door can only move things at the dock controlled by the gangsters.

"Snap"

A metal cheque board landed on the table in front of the hapless shipowner, and even though the light was dim, the huge number on it could still be seen.

Ru Cabbage said to the shipowner: "I am Charles McCaden, I bought your ship immediately, how about it?"

The shipowner jumped to his feet, and the cheque was enough to pay off the loan and buy ten more boats.

If it were someone else, the owner would have been suspicious, but this man was the Earl of Maccaden.

Recently, no one in the town has seen planes flying in the air one after another every day, and it is rumored that these big guys with tens of thousands of gold coins are all the property of the earl.

The people in the tavern were attracted by the movement here, and they came to see the excitement.

It didn't take long for the sleeping town to boil quickly from this bar.

A young sailor was woken up by the barkeeper slamming the door, and before he was properly dressed, he pulled the owner out of the dilapidated house and told him to hurry to the docks.

The sailor was still confused, but he owed the boss a lot of money for food, so he had to obediently run towards the dock, for fear that he would not give himself credit after annoying the boss.

Some people had already gathered in the harbor, some were still confused, and some were so excited that their eyes lit up.

In the midst of everyone's gossip, the sailor figured out the situation.

The Earl of Maccaden is urgently hiring sailors for five ships, and now that the route to the Knowledge City has been opened, sailors need to follow them to make the first round.

And the Earl's reward is extremely generous, now bags of gold coins are placed on the ship, and those who are willing to fight will come up, this bag of gold coins that ordinary people can't earn in two lifetimes can be held by yourself, or you can entrust the priest of the Ocean Temple to send it home.

The first to board was a middle-aged helmsman whose son had been in poor health since he was bitten by a poisonous lizard a few years ago.

With people taking the lead, more and more crew members came on board.

In less than an hour, the sailboat, loaded with some grain, hung up its lights and slowly sailed away from the dock.

The shore was full of people seeing them off, no one spoke, no one knew if they would reach their destination safely.

It wasn't just the leading fleet that set off overnight.

To the north, in a military camp in the kingdom of Ryrik, the silence of the night was broken by the sound of an urgent assembly of military trumpets.

At nine minutes and thirty seconds, the regimental commander Walter and the regimental chief of staff Franz were very satisfied with the results of the emergency assembly of the whole regiment.

More than 2,000 heavily armed young soldiers lined up the playground like pine trees, and the aura of murder soared into the sky.

As the most loyal, disciplined, hard-trained, and best-equipped troops in the new army under Auston I, they are the Tinder team in Auston I's heart.

Upon learning that war was inevitable, Auston I immediately ordered the team to be brought in through the island's Magical Communication Bureau.

Walter didn't talk nonsense, he looked around at the young faces on the stage, and then announced: "His Majesty Auston order, the whole army reinforces the knowledge city, go!"

There is no need to go into a tirade, the king's orders are everything to them.

In the far south, the same scene appears in the barracks outside Slime.

Ji Shijun stood on the stage, and below him was a neat and uniform phalanx.

This is a young, but battle-hardened army.

When the Slime Basin was created, it was they who repelled the successive attacks of those slave hunters and noble armies, providing a solid barrier for the development of the basin.

After receiving the news, Ji Shijun knew that this matter was very important, so he immediately gathered his most elite guard regiment to support.

In Abyss City, Nicholas II, who was still on vacation, received an oracle from the god of harvest and forging and held an emergency meeting of the military council overnight.

At the meeting, everyone unanimously agreed to send troops to support Knowledge City, and it was unanimously agreed that the operation would be under the full responsibility of the Navy.

In view of the difficult transportation conditions on the main battlefield, the Air Force will send transport planes to strengthen the airlift force.

The military council decided on the spot to immediately set up a special command to be responsible for organizing the next batch of reinforcements and coordinating logistical matters.

While the meeting was still in progress, Nicholas II received a letter from the Elven Royal Court stating that the 168th Division of the Royal Court's Army, which had undergone redressing, reorganization and training in the Rurik Kingdom, would return home from training ahead of schedule.

Something similar happened in various places, where elite military forces began to assemble and then embarked on the road to reinforce the Knowledge City.
