The Flame of All Things Chapter 53—The Council

It was a nightmarish catastrophe, with mythical creatures waving their claws tearing open the steel hulls of ships, steaming lava flowing through the cabins, scorched black shadows everywhere they passed, huge black snakes devouring people's lives, shark-like shadows hunting down everyone trying to escape.

The middle-aged man who was tied to the mast used all his energy, and the shockwaves, large and small, went back and forth on the deck, but they could only leave some traces on the black scales of the giant serpent.

The people first used the weapons on the ships to resist, all kinds of gunfire rang out, and then the hand-to-hand combat behind them, everyone was unleashed to the extreme, but the battle was still a one-sided slaughter.

The young man in the white shirt stood at the end of the deck, he did not move, but the invisible pressure was harvesting the people on the deck who tried to attack him.

Everyone exploded strangely in the space, turning into a cloud of blood mist and dispersing towards the sky.

It's purgatory!

The sea at the bottom of the ship began to darken, as if a behemoth was about to rise to the surface.

The fangs of a huge stone pillar slowly rose from the left and right sides of the ship, a huge mouth of the abyss like a black hole, and the Giant Elephant was intercepted and bitten by it.

Just as everything seemed to be coming to an end, a white light burst out from a part of the ship's hull, flooding the entire screen with a dazzling white light.

The lawmaker turned off the video, which actually reached the end, and the drone footage has been in pitch black ever since. The plasma storm damaged the equipment of the drone. The fact that this video was able to be transmitted was a bonus.

The footage was taken by the Giant Elephant's own drone.

Gusuri, Council Chamber.

Winter makes all the vines turn yellow and dry, and the cold wind can't blow into the old hall, but the cold is already in everyone's heart.

Around the round table were high-ranking figures in the academy, and the faces of the nearly twenty with different complexions appeared with different expressions. The mountain and sea patterns on the table flow slowly, and the light on the top of the hall shines down, forming a significant spatial difference with the four directions.

Or the northernmost one who opened his mouth first. Speaker Qianli felt a little tired, as the secret presiding officer of Gusuri Academy, his power was greater than that of the principal, and power also meant greater responsibility.

"Your silence reminds me of the cold winter that follows every A-Class raid. ”

That being said, this time it's deeper.

"It's really a cold winter...... It's the first time we've discovered that so many ghosts exist at the same time. Professor Besqi of the Faculty of Theology sighed.

"Are those really sprites? If you didn't say I'd just think of them as the Leviathan whale from the sci-fi movies, the earthly python Jörmungad, and even Nidhogg at the base of the World Tree. Red's hands clenched into a fist, and he couldn't forget the middle-aged man who had been sneering at him in the council

And in the picture just now, the man chose the most heroic way to die in the storm.

"That's different, the Nidhogg, a symbol of despair, is never the same old gray and yellow, and its wings can cover the sky and the sun, and it is covered with dead bodies. A certain person from the clerical department said lightly.

"Did you come to fill in the details of Norse mythology for me?" Minister Red's voice was cold, with a hint of anger.

There are no more people from the combat department to quarrel with him, and now the people from the civil affairs department are going to come out and continue this tradition?

"No, no one would do such a stupid thing. ”

"It's a shame that there are always moth-like people in the Round Table Council, who will always just huddle at the back of the battlefield and watch others fight bloodily. And they will only say some despicable words behind the backs of others in a weird tone of yin and yang. ”

"Watch your words, Honorable Chief. And, if you really want to say that, we're not the only ones hiding behind the battlefield, right?

"It's a shame that I never pay attention to my words. It's even more regrettable that I don't pay attention to my actions. Minister Red had a fierce look in his eyes and a smile on his lips.

He stood up from his position.

Damn it, is there going to be a riot? The atmosphere in the arena instantly became tense. Except for the old ones, the young teachers watched the two of them closely.

The head of the equipment department, Red, is notoriously short-tempered, and it is said that he was a well-known 'cancer' in the academy when he was young, but his talent in equipment research and development is unparalleled. Until he became the head of the equipment department today.

Everyone was worried about the clerk in the clerical section, and the clerical clerk who had worked hard was also a little nervous at the moment. He kept telling himself that Red would not dare to make a move in such a solemn council.

But in fact, the round table is not as serious and peaceful as imagined.

There used to be a quarrel between the two departments in the council, and when the council was over, they had a duel under the green vines outside the building.

"Red, do you want to make trouble at the Round Table?" said the clerk in a loud voice, seeking the approval of the people.

Someone did help him speak

"Stop, Ryder, you can't stand up to your status as the head of the Equipment Section. ”

But Minister Red didn't care, his muscular upper body was full of explosive muscles, and even though he was a little older, he was still the type with great strength.

Looking at the head of the equipment section who was getting closer and closer, the civilian staff member of the clerical section finally took off his confident look, and he began to panic and retreated.

Until the speaker shouted, "Enough, go back for me!"

There was a sudden silence on the field.

Minister Red, who was about to throw a fist, stopped his fist and slowly walked back to his seat and sat down.

The civilian in the Personnel Section gasped for air, his clothes soaked inside and out. But it didn't matter if he was embarrassed on the outside, he felt that he had lost psychologically.

He was scared.

"I don't care if you quarrel or not, and in fact I have never cared about you, but what I want to say is, have you forgotten your mission because of so long of comfort?" said Speaker Qianli, who was in the far north, and his voice echoed through the room like a wave.

"Has your blood been dormant for too long?"

The sound of a bell continued to echo

"If that's the case, I think you'll need to go back to where you started and go through it all over again."

"You say, yes?"

At this moment, the retro old man in the Taoist robe is like the real ruler.

Previously, he was more like an old man who listened silently.

It doesn't take too many moves, and it doesn't need to be sharp words, because of his magical power, the blood curse

Everyone's blood was heating up dramatically, and it was a curse engraved in the blood of all Wicans.

As if he was born in power, he can control the temperature and flow of blood in almost every witch clan around him. He can even make other people's blood flow backwards.

But that doesn't mean that this magic is invincible in its kind

As long as the bloodline is strong enough, the person who is mobilized will be able to resist this power.

But no matter what, the blood of everyone present surged, and the memories of the Wu clan's inheritance rushed into their minds to varying degrees.

But no one can argue with it

The scene in the hall of the council was strange at the moment, and the high-ranking people who were usually high and powerful in Reed were convulsing as if they were sick

The weaker ones even rolled on the ground

It's a shame that no student can see this picture, otherwise it would have caused a sensation on the whole campus.

The people around the round table were caught in memories of struggle, some in silence, some in pain. But now the man at the far north didn't seem to be able to see what was going on below.

It was one of the few times he had used his abilities

The blood curse is very powerful, but the servants must not rely on this ability, and the old man only wants those high-ranking people in high positions to experience the primal hatred in their blood again.

He wants everyone to understand who their natural enemies are.

If the spear is left too long, it will also become dull.

The pain spread, and hideous expressions appeared on everyone's faces, until a clapping sound rang out throughout the hall

Everyone came back to their senses, soaked in sweat, and realized that this was the real world.

What a nightmare for a few minutes!
