Chapter Ninety-Five: Enlightenment
In addition to the great discussion and panic among the citizens, the biggest problem with the emergence of floating cities is actually its actual impact on people's lives. Societies that are highly dependent on guidance have lost the gift of the goddess on which they depend, and gradually become chaotic. Traffic jams, slowing market supplies, heating stoppages – a series of problems that even the citizens of Liberal, who maintain a high level of trust in the government, can hardly tolerate the current situation, and there are constant protesting crowds in metropolitan areas.
Fortunately, even so, Liber's law and order is second to none on the continent, and the level of education of its citizens is second to none, so there is no direct conflict between the people and the government. Although it is difficult to say that the results will continue in the long term, it is clear that floating cities are a problem that must be solved in the short term. So when Dr. Russell walked out of the workshop aboard the Elseyu with a haggard and excited expression, everyone knew that at least the first step had been taken to solve the matter.
"This is my new invention, the Zero Force Field Generator." Even in such a special situation, the doctor could not hide his inner pride, "It can create the effect of resonating with the force field of the gospel and eliminating it in reverse, and in layman's terms, it can prevent the "phenomenon of stopping the guiding force"...... Words on a small scale. ”
The remark sparked a lot of interest from everyone – including some who knew nothing about conductive equipment. Seeing everyone's curious expressions, Dr. Russell nodded with satisfaction, "Specifically, it's because the function of the gospel is to power the space where the Ring of Radiance is located, and the form of this world is inexplicably taken away. However, after the emergence of floating cities, the range of this absorption of conductive force was suddenly expanded, so that the phenomenon of conductive force cessation became a large-scale disaster from a small-scale local phenomenon. ”
"In other words, the floating city sucks all the conductive force on the ground for its own use?" Kross pursed her lips, "That's pretty domineering." ”
"yes...... Dr. Russell agreed, "so this thing has to be settled." Even if I know that the whole kingdom is now in chaos, it is important to obtain accurate information in order to solve this problem, including the movement of associations, the delivery of necessities, and the arrangement of the army's defenses...... And so on all this, if there is no guide communication, it is all a black eye. ”
"So...... What does the doctor mean...... Do you want to restore communications in various places first? ”
"That's true, it's the right judgment."
Everyone agreed, and no one objected. Dr. Russell then said, "But time is limited, and even if I work overtime, I can only make twenty." Therefore...... Captain Yulia, I hope that the army and the partisans will divide this equipment equally, and give priority to the restoration of communications in the garrison offices of the ministries and associations...... No problem, right? ”
"I see. Thank you, Doctor, and I'll send them everywhere in a moment. ”
"As for you...... Each branch of the guerrilla guild should keep at least one...... It's just that I've worked hard for you, and I want to send them one by one...... No problem, right? ”
"It's hard work, but I have to do it." Thinking of the imminent completion of the kingdom on foot in a short period of time, even Istelle was a little weak in her legs, but even if she knew the difficulties, there was no room for retreat in this situation, "It's a pity that some companions can't accompany us......"
"It can't be helped. Her Royal Highness the Princess has something to discuss with Her Majesty, and she must not act rashly out of various considerations......" Yulia looked apologetically at Koros, who unexpectedly responded with a mischievous smile, "Mr. Olivier has returned to the Empire, and Father Kevin has gone to the Chapel, apparently because there is work to be done on the Archbishop's side...... Helliga ...... He ......"
There was silence.
He ...... What's wrong with him? Actually disappeared without saying a word...... This has never been his style......" Estil smiled reluctantly, comforting Fei, who had lowered her head and said nothing since she had just started, "That, maybe he also has a certain ......"
“…… Say no more. Fei shook his head, his tone complicated, "Obviously, I just said those words not long ago...... Say what will always be together...... ...... and so on."
“…… He's not the same as me, who makes willful decisions irresponsibly......" For a long time, Joshua said, "if it's not any unspeakable hardship, it's some very special situation......
"yes...... He wouldn't do that kind of irresponsible thing. You are the one who has been with him the longest and knows him the best, and you should know that this is the least likely thing for him to do. ”
"Huh...... Oh, yes. But because of this...... Fei showed a helpless wry smile, "Speaking of which, the power in his body ...... It seems that the hidden secrets haven't been told to you yet, right? ”
“…… This one does. Does it have anything to do with that? Kim has always been impressed by the extreme display of that power, and at the same time, he also deeply understands that there can be no secrets behind such a powerful power.
"I know it all...... It was because he trusted me unreservedly and told me all his secrets, and because I knew that he would never leave me, that I was so worried about him...... What could be the thing that made him have to make such a choice...... And when this kind of thing happens, I can only wait, I can't do anything, this helplessness ......"
"......" was silent. No one answered.
"Filipino...... No one can predict what will happen in the future...... Even I am now. The first to break the peace was Kross, "even though I am already very determined to follow in my grandmother's footsteps...... But once in a while, I think of some sad future, of being ousted from power by my political enemies, of imposing the wrong policies that have broken down the functioning of the kingdom...... It's just that, despite being afraid, I have never changed the determination I have made. ”
"Colos......
"So what about you? I fully believe that I can be a good queen, so no matter what kind of future I encounter, I have the courage and consciousness to take it and accept it. You said you trusted him completely, didn't you? Then - even more so that the rhythm cannot be disrupted by this kind of thing. ”
“…… Hehe...... Oh, yes. The smile on the corner of Fei's mouth changed from a helpless bitter smile to a smile, "How could I not figure out such a thing...... Now he must be in trouble that neither he nor I can solve......"
"...... Fei?" Estelle was a little apprehensive about such a shift, "You ......"
"Don't worry, Estil. Thanks to Coloss...... No, Her Highness Kolotia's words, I figured it out. It's no different from what we've been through together...... I just have to do my own thing and wait for him to come back and tell me everything. If he doesn't come back...... That ......"
“……”
"That only means that he has encountered a big problem that even he can't solve......" Fei's smile brightened, "In that case, what can I do?" Of course, he chose to forgive him. ”
"Filipino...... It's a bit ......," said Shelazadeh, laughing and crying, as if thinking of some ambiguity.
"And most importantly...... He doesn't like me who is always stuck in self-doubt...... So, even for this reason, I must not lose! ”

At the same time as Fei walked out of the knot, on the shores of Lake Valyria, in some uninhabited corner.
The boy who was worried about the girl's heart walked with a painful expression.
