Chapter 474: The Anomaly of Gomore Volcano
In the thriving kingdom of Gomor, the atmosphere now seems a little strange.
The entire kingdom is plunged into an inexplicable state of tension.
Nagomore volcano, two days ago, there was a eruption, although it did not cause huge damage, no large amount of magma erupted, but the black volcanic ash still floated everywhere, affecting the life of the Gomore dwarves.
The royal palace of the Gomore Kingdom was already full of all kinds of dignitaries at this time. Some of them were generals who commanded the army, and some were ministers in charge of finance, engineering, and so on.
Regardless of their status, each of these dwarves had worries and uneasiness written on their faces.
Today, their old king is not yet healed, and is being treated and prayed for by several alchemists and witch doctors.
"What can I do now? Recently, the Gomore volcano has become more and more abnormal!"
"yes! Volcanoes are becoming more and more active, which is not a good sign, and it may erupt at any time!"
"This shouldn't be possible! Gomol Volcano, every time it erupts actively, there is a certain law, this is a law for tens of thousands of years, how can it be said that it will change?"
......
For a while, the sound of controversy kept coming, although they had their own opinions, but they didn't dare to be too loud, after all, their King Majesty was still in a state of cultivation.
Since his last injury, the old dwarven king has rarely appeared in Gomore's court.
Most of the time, Gomore's affairs are handled by Rick Spirits and a few important ministers who are trusted by Oliver.
The closed door and the constant sound of slight coughing made the ministers waiting outside the door feel restless.
Inside the gate, it was already full of people standing at this time, many of whom were alchemists and witch doctors.
They felt a little troubled and worried about the old king's physical condition.
In fact, Oliver himself was not in danger of life, but he was older and suffered more serious injuries, which made him unable to recover in time in a short period of time.
What's more, the climate and environment of the Gomore Kingdom have recently been affected by volcanic eruptions and have become very poor. To a certain extent, this also affected the speed of the old king's physical recovery.
On the edge of the big bed, Rick leaned on the edge of the bed, covering his father with a blanket and a faint worry in his eyes.
Oliver's face was slightly pale, he glanced at the gray sky outside the window, and said softly, "Hasn't the sky improved yet?"
Rick nodded, "Yes, father!" But don't worry too much, Gomol shows no signs of erupting. Until now, only black smoke and ash have floated out of the crater, and there is not a trace of red in sight. ”
Oliver's breathing gradually stabilized: "You immediately let Wagner go to the Hall of Origin to have a look, our ancestors will not abandon us, they will definitely show us the way." ”
Rick nodded and said, "I've already let her go, and it won't be long before she gets an answer." ”
Oliver nodded, and then said to the alchemists and witch doctors not far away, "You guys go out first, Rick can take care of it." ”
The men wanted to say something, but when they saw Rick's unkind gaze, they swallowed back the words that came to their mouths, and then left the king's bedroom one after another.
The generals and ministers who were guarding the door originally wanted to take this opportunity to come in and report the situation, but they were stopped by several guards and dragged back.
The heavy door closed again, and only Oliver and Rick were left in the room.
"Father, do you have anything to say?" asked Rick after a moment of silence.
Oliver looked out the window again, and said with a somewhat confused look: "I have a feeling that this time the anomaly of Gomol Volcano is not simple!"
Rick looked confused, not knowing what his father Oliver meant.
Oliver continued: "According to the law of volcanic eruptions in the past, it is not yet time for eruptions. ”
Rick responded: "Indeed, but at present, Gomol Volcano is only relatively active, and it is indeed not time for an eruption!"
Oliver shook his head: "This kind of abnormal activity is already very wrong! I feel that the Gomore volcano is slowly brewing, and it will not be long before the next eruption! And what has happened now also shows that this eruption is different!"
Rick frowned, "So what should we do now?"
Oliver looked at his youngest son, "If you were to decide, what would you do?"
Rick froze, not knowing what to say.
Oliver smiled, "It's okay, just say what you think." ”
Rick hesitated for a moment before he said, "I'll let everyone hide in the dungeon for the time being, and observe the changes in Gomor Volcano first." If this eruption is really going to be very serious, then we will have to let everyone flee the kingdom of Gomore for a while. ”
Oliver nodded, "Well, let's do it then!"
Rick was stunned: "Isn't it a little too hasty, and besides, it's just my idea, do you mean that?"
Oliver waved his hand: "You don't have to worry about my thoughts, sooner or later, this king's seat will be for you to sit one day, you just take the opportunity of this volcanic eruption to show your governing skills, and let our people feel at ease." ”
Rick was visibly upset and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Oliver: "I'm old and I just want to spend the rest of my days in peace, so I think it's almost time to hand over the throne to you." That brother of yours, I have already told him about this, and he promised me that he will help you protect our common kingdom!"
Rick didn't want to take over the throne of king, but now it seems that he has no choice.
At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and a female dwarf with a somewhat solemn face walked in.
It was none other than Wagna, the high priest of the Gomore Kingdom.
I saw that she was holding a curtain in her hand, and something seemed to be covered underneath.
Wagner came to the side of the old king Oliver, and then said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, you had better be mentally prepared. ”。
Oliver smiled bitterly: "It doesn't seem to be good news." ”
After saying that, he slowly opened the curtain and found that it was a stone slab, which shimmered with golden powder, and the powder formed a single word - escape!
