Chapter 108: Saron's Plan
Hearing the knock on the door, the two stopped pestering in unison.
Isabella lifted the blanket: "Ah, your little lover is angry? β
Duck sighed, "She and we are not the same line after all." I guess I don't have the life to be the emperor anymore, and she and I are just mutual-"
Isabella cocked her finger to block his mouth: "Don't say stupid things, I can see that she is also very interesting to you." Balabala said so much, just to scare me away. She still cares about you. β
Duck smirked, "Do you see what I mean to her?"
"Come on, you, shameless! I don't allow it!"
Duck sighed faintly, "For you, I don't even want a princess." β
"Hmph, let me tell you, you don't want to fight anyone's idea except me!"
"Oh, so what do you think about it first?"
Isabella was ashamed: "Stinky rascal, still patrol!" she said no, but her eyes were watery.
Seeing the girl's performance, Dark, who was not ashamed, climbed up the pole: "Rogue patrol and depraved priest, what a match!
Just as the thunder was about to ignite the earth's fire, the guards outside the gate shouted: "Lord Hassan, Lord Ralbin has an urgent military briefing!"
Duck's voice was like a wolf's howl: "Not available...... Ahh
"All right," said the girl, "get down to business!" said her, pecking him in the face like lightning. Grabbed his clothes and threw them in his face: "Wear it quickly!"
Duck cried and said, "Is there anything more correct?"
"I'm angry if I don't leave!"
"Okay, I'll go, I'll go. β
As soon as I went out, I ran into Ralbin. The warlord of Yulia frowned: "The situation is urgent, and the Elders of Yulia have sent an urgent message, ordering all Yulia people who can evacuate to leave the city within three hours. β
Since becoming the emir of the Alibaba Mission, Ralbin has been dedicated to his duties, fully demonstrated his talents, and has been very receptive to new technologies and equipment. In particular, the outbreak of the events in Surajevo set off a monstrous anti-Semitic frenzy throughout the city of Dorihachi, and as a Jurian, he was under a lot of pressure, but he was able to hold his ground, which impressed Duck and Letifa and increased their trust in him.
Ralbin is calm and rarely screams at a startle. Never look for trouble over small things. Now I actually came directly to Dak, which shows that it is indeed urgent.
"Three hours? sounds like an ultimatum. Are the sources reliable?"
"Reliable, the inside line of the Presbyterian Church of Julia. Until yesterday, they were working tirelessly to plot against me. β
Ralbin said this calmly, as if he were recounting something that did not arouse suspicion from the top and had nothing to do with him.
Darke secretly admired that he had really found a treasure, and asked, "So, can you tell me who sent this announcement?"
"Saron. β
Darker snorted.
For a rare time, the Governor's Mansion in Dorihachi City was highly efficient, and the news was dug out of the Assassins' mouths in the early morning of the same day that the Sulajevo incident had been dug up, and all the plots were planned by Saron, the current leader of the Yulian rebels.
From the assassination of Najmuddin to provoke civil unrest in the port of Umlim, to the usurpation of the rebels' supreme power, to the instigation of Assasin against Alibaba, and finally to the assassination of Dak, all these plots were all carried out by Sarong.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Dark's mouth: "The source of chaos has finally emerged." Guards, notify all the high-level leaders of the Alibaba delegation, and the conference room is in a meeting. β
A moment later, Letifa, Sahir, Ralbin, Qafate and the others all arrived, and the leader of the Assasins, the old man of the mountain, Malim, had not yet left, and also wanted to attend the meeting, and Dack agreed, and Isabella also asked to attend, and to his surprise, Latifa welcomed it, so Dak briefly considered and agreed.
Ralbin first introduced the situation, and then made his own analysis: "...... As the events against the Julia intensified, I suspect that Saron will use all his power to retaliate. Saron is not a man who only speaks big words and threats. β
Sahil said: "But now that Saron has limited resources at hand, the strength of the Yulia rebel army is far inferior to that of Dorihachi City, how can they threaten us? Siege the city? Isn't that suicidal?"
"Because the assassination in Surajevo has just passed, everyone is very vigilant, and I think he will probably not do it again," Calafate said. Will they send spies in and carry out sabotage?"
Sahil said: "It is possible, because everyone's energy is focused on the Yulia, and it is not difficult to create chaos - but if you can't win a frontal fight, even if you create a chaos, it is useless." Now the city is full of surveillance circles inside and outside the city, and we have a highly mobile commando team on standby, twenty minutes is enough to quell any chaos. β
Duck said: "Ralbin, you have worked with Saron for the longest time, and you are most familiar with his characteristics, you can talk about it." β
"He has a lot of information, which one would you like to know?"
Duck pondered for a moment and said, "The massacre in Wuhoude Village, since he tricked the Elder Council of Yulia into carrying the black cauldron, it means that he has long wanted to kick out the Council of Elders and go it alone, so why should the Council of Elders be notified to evacuate at this time?"
"Because he's a Great Juliaist, a hardliner. Advocate the supremacy of the interests of the Julia. I thought that his retaliation might cause the Presbyterian Church to suffer a great loss as well, so he sent a notice. β
This meant that Saron had abandoned all the Julians who could not be evacuated.
There is no doubt that the anti-Semitic frenzy in the city of Dorihachi angered Saron, and he would rather have the remaining Julias buried with him in retaliation.
What a terrible attack would that be?
And now, there is no clue about this impending attack!
Duck asked, "Ralbin, where was the last time Saron communicated with you, and did you mention anything?"
"The command post of the village of Wuhoude. He was dissatisfied with the Presbyterian Church. Taunted me. Nothing else is abnormal. β
"That is to say, he was ready to break away from the Council of Elders, and he must have had a plan, and the first step of that plan must have been to take over the work you were responsible forβwhat was your work at that time?"
"Site selection, establishment of ground-penetrating devices, preparation for the exploration of the Menzaro Library. The device has a screw pipe connected in sections with a total length of several hundred meters. β
"It can't be a ground penetrating device, hundreds of meters, it's too shallow! We've been to the underground library, which is several kilometers deep from the surface, and near the village of Wuhoude, hundreds of meters of auger drill pipe, it's impossible to detect the specific situation inside! What the hell is that?"
"This ...... The subordinates are military commanders and know these techniques...... Hmmm......"
The old man in the mountain, Malim, suddenly said: "Can I say something? β
Dark's overjoy: "Please speak!"
"About two months ago, the Julia rebels ordered a batch of steel auger rods in the form of scattered orders, because at that time the Mensaro uprising was in full swing, and we Assasin thought it was a help to Murdez, and did not dig into it. β
"And then?"
"Later, they further drilled holes in the center of the drill bit, turned the drill bit into a hollow structure, and plated the inner wall of the tubular cavity with a corrosion-resistant layer, as if to add something to it. This caught our attention, because the tunnels of the Mensaro people are several kilometers deep underground, and a drill bit of a few hundred meters does not do much at all. Until recently, my subordinates provided an interesting list of the locations of these drill bits. β
"Where?"
Malim took out a map: "I have marked the distribution of drill bits with red dots, please see, they end in the city of Dorihachi, and the starting point is scattered irregularly, about thirteen kilometers between each drill bit. β
Everyone looked at each other, such a long distance, so shallow into the ground, what is this for?
Sahil suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "They are going to inject toxins and pollute the groundwater!"
Isabella said: "I have studied the geology and hydrology of this area, and the city of Dorihachi has very little groundwater, and the direction of water is not over there. β
Letifa said, "Perhaps, those things that transmit magic energy fluctuations and use them to create a huge earthquake and bury the whole city?"
Calafate said: "That requires a huge amount of magic energy, even if the people of Julia have money, it is impossible to buy so many magic energy crystals. Could it be that Saron has twenty or thirty Dharma Saints, or four or five Dharma Gods? β
All eyes were on Dark.
Darker slowly stood up and paced slowly.
The minutes ticked by, but everyone was at a loss.
Duck's brow furrowed tighter.
There will definitely be clues! Think about it, what unusual things did you encounter when you were in Wuhoude Village?
His heart suddenly moved, and he asked Ralbin in a loud voice: "Were there any Dolanders in your team at that time?"
Ralbin didn't hesitate: "Yes." β
"They're mainly responsible?"
"Directing equipment installation and maintenance. β
"What's the name of the leader?"
"Royal Alchemy Academy of Doland, Taks. β
Duck was happy, he had heard of the name, Riley had mentioned it, this Tax, was her classmate!
Tuckers is best at the study of living organisms and pharmacy.
Duck slapped the table, "I know what Saron is going to do!"
Everyone asked in unison, "What?"
"Sandworms! Those hollow auger bits must be filled with pheromones that attract sandworms. In this way, Saron wants to lure the sandworms and bury the entire city of Dorihachi alive!"
The crowd was shocked.
Sandworms, epic creatures in the Deadfire Desert and the most terrifying nightmare born by Kunshabi, the mother of sandworms.
Juvenile sandworms are 300 meters long and 8 meters tall. Adult sandworms can grow more than a kilometer and be 20 meters tall, and they live at depths of more than a dozen kilometers, digging tunnels and feeding on large burrowing creatures underground.
The Mensaro tunnels are tunnels dug by sandworms close to the surface. The width of the passage could allow four or five Ifrit chariots to run in parallel!
If the sandworms are really brought in, the entire city of Dorihachi will collapse, and all the inhabitants, whether they are Ara or Julia, will become the stomach of the sandworms!
