Chapter 239: The Great War
As the day of the decisive battle approaches, the atmosphere on the island begins to become solemn.
Inside the Explorers Association of Hope Island, around a simple brass bearing machine, crowds of people surround it.
The machine was a telegraph, and the people around it were all exploration crews who had not gone to sea, and each of them had uneasiness and anticipation on their faces.
As soon as the news from outside arrived, Governor Julio was in contact with Governor Swann two hours later.
This war concerns everyone in the North Seas, and it is now relevant to everyone's lives.
Time passed little by little, and when it was so quiet that only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard, the telegram "Didi Didi~" suddenly began to sound on its own.
And with the sound of the voice, a piece of paper with long and short lines and origins slowly emerged from it.
"Who knows the telegram code!Hurry up and translate the translation!What happened to them??"
"I! I did this before I went to sea. A little man with a red beard jumped on the table where the telegram was kept, picked up the paper and looked at it.
His expression was surprised and hesitated for a while, but he didn't say anything for a long time, and the captains around him wanted to curse.
"Shorty! Do you say it or not! Is it so slow, is it eating Lao Tzu's gun??"
"Hurry up, what's written on it?"
Just as the other captains were excited, the little man suddenly spoke. "Swan has attacked Julio's fleet!"
This sentence made the noisy hall instantly quiet, and only the loud voice of the little man echoed in it.
"The point of engagement was three nautical miles south of Spider Island, and Swan was hiding in the water with the "Ronka", and he used the pillar of light that killed the Governor of Ho to sweep the fleet horizontally from below the water, and Governor Julio's Armada suffered heavy casualties, and the Ambush Swan fleet was surrounded by him, and the war between them began. ”
At this, the little man paused, threw away the paper in his hand, and continued to draw the next one from the telegraph.
Governor Julio began to fight back, and he rushed to "Lonka" alone, and many people on Lonka tried to stop Governor Julio, but they were quickly defeated by Governor Julio. ”
"Those people are traps! Just when Governor Julio was slightly entangled by such people, a pillar of light directly overwhelmed them all!"
"Hiss~!" everyone present suddenly gasped.
Just when they thought the battle was long over, the telegraph beeped again.
"Governor Julio is fine!He doesn't know how to dodge!"He really deserves to be the strongest Governor of the Earth Sea!!"
"Whew~" Everyone exhaled loudly, and under the relay of the little man, they seemed to be in the scene.
He moved, ignoring the boats around him, and he was rushing towards the long legs of "Lonka"!
One telegram after another was sent, and one by one it was interpreted by all the islands of the Earth Sea, everyone was concerned with this great battle, and everyone's heart was sometimes hanging and falling with the change of the battle situation.
The little man said that for three full hours, and when he grabbed a newspaper again, he felt like his throat was going to smoke.
"Whoever has water, give me something to drink, my throat is dry. ”
"I've got wine here! read it to me!" a leather wine bag tossed up.
The little man picked up the wine bag and poured it several times, then wiped the wine on his mouth with his sleeve, intending to continue to analyze the paper in his hand, but after looking at it, he was stunned.
"What's the matter? ”
"That's amazing!!!Governor Julio boarded the "Ronca" !!"
When the news was heard, the roof of the entire hall was almost torn over by the excitement of the crew.
They all knew what it meant to be the only Governor of Earthsea with 15th rank strength.
As long as he ascends a "Ronka", it means that he has not been screwing Swan's head off for a long time.
At that time, the pressure on everyone's heads will disappear in an instant, and the Western Sea will be calm again.
"Ronka is on fire, it's smoking, it's going to smoke big, it's going to smoke! Julio's attack works! If Swan hadn't escaped, I guess he would have caught him soon. ”
Just as everyone was holding their breath in anticipation of the last moment, the telegram rang again.
"Swan crawled out of it. He's dragging something in his hand, it's the body of Governor Julio!Governor Julio is dead!!"
"This can't be!!!"
"That's it, everyone knows that the Governor of England Island doesn't have any strength at all!How could he kill Julio!!"
"I don't believe it! This must be a lie!!"
"Tick tick. The excited captains immediately stopped, waiting for the little man to continue translating.
"Governor Julio isn't dead! Bloody he got out of his crew's body again! he took out something, it was—"
The little man's words came to an abrupt end, and just as everyone asked him to continue speaking, he flipped over the paper in his hand, and the upper part of the telegram code, which should have been left with dots and lines, was all covered by all kinds of messy pitting, as if the other party was suddenly disturbed by something when he was tapping the telegram.
"Don't worry, I'll ask what's going on over there. The little man finished speaking, and pressed his hand rhythmically on the brass handle of the telegraph.
Everyone was anxiously waiting. But it was as if the line was broken, and no news came again.
All the islands of Earthsea are silently sending telegrams to Spider Island, and the results are the same.
However, in such a huge battlefield, there are always some fish that slip through the net, and when these people flee back to the island, the news finally reaches Hope Island, and the first to get the news is always the island governor.
"What did you say? they have a truce!?" Charles stood up in shock.
He had thought about various situations and made a lot of plans for possible scenarios, but he never thought of the current situation.
"According to the telegram, it seems that Governor Julio has used some exceptionally powerful relic. Both sides suffered heavy casualties. ”
Just as Charles was thinking about how to take advantage of this situation and maximize the benefits, the butler walked up to him, "Lord Governor, the Cult of Light is at the door with a huge stone statue, and they said they want to see you. ”
"Behind Swan's is the Pope, what is this guy looking for me now??" Charles said in his heart.
