Section 9 Peace Talks
The Southern Cemetery is bordered by a bay to the northeast of the Blackstone Mountains, with cliffs to the south and land to the west and north. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ infoIn the early hours of the morning, ships returning from the sea will see the moon sinking from the west into the horizon of the southern cemetery, so it is also called "Moon Burial Bay".
The Black Harbor, one of the two major ports of the Southern Cemetery, was built in the Bay of the Burial Moon and was the only place in the entire continent where ships were allowed to enter and leave except for the "Sunset Harbor".
There are a large number of ships anchored along the coast, most of them cargo ships from the western and central continents, whose main livelihood is to transport food and supplies for the world parliament and the temple to ensure the survival of the insects in the southern cemeteries. A small number of fishing boats came from the Northern Wilderness and the Far East, and they made a living from fishing, occasionally selling a mess of things, including smuggling machinery, medicines, and passengers.
Since the ancient nuclear war, the nuclear contamination of the silver city world has become increasingly serious. In order to adapt to the harsh living environment, various organisms have evolved or mutated one after another. The first to change is marine life, followed by freshwater life, followed by land and sky life. As marine life evolved, the sea and rivers became more and more dangerous for humans, and gradually became off-limits. Some of the evolved sea creatures have the ability to break steel, some have become extremely large, some have the ability to fly for a short time, some have evolved highly corrosive bodily fluids, and some have developed highly poisonous gallbladders.
From around BDR 2600 to the start of the glorious war, for nearly a thousand years, human beings abandoned the sea, did not build ships on a large scale, and did not sail, relying only on aircraft for transoceanic transportation.
After the Battle of Glory, a small number of insects were driven to the edge of the land and could only survive on the sea, while most of the insects were driven to the southern cemetery. In order to reduce the cost of transportation, the world parliament began large-scale shipbuilding, allowing the people at the bottom to risk sea transportation. As a result, the ship, which had disappeared for nearly a thousand years, returned to the embrace of the sea. However, the risk of navigation has always been high, and usually only those who cannot find a job are willing to become seafarers, and the vast majority of civilians will not go to sea easily as long as they have something to eat.
At this moment, in the largest bar in Black Harbor, the mahogany bar, Bi Tianye is holding his delicate chin with the back of his hand, shaking the wine glass in his hand, looking a little listless. It's been almost two months since she came to the Southern Cemetery, and she feels uncomfortable every day in this dirty environment. She misses the green mountains and rivers of the Far East and can't wait to go back.
Although the whereabouts of the target are already there, will you fall into the trap of the other party if you go rashly? Before coming here, the main body had repeatedly admonished that Iron Slag Norses seemed to be dumbfounded, but in fact he was very cunning and had to be dealt with carefully.
Just when Bi Tianye was in a daze, Zhang Ping, one of her subordinates, hurried to the bar. However, when Zhang Ping saw her eyes shaking her wine glass with a dull gaze, he immediately stopped, looking a little hesitant. You know, when the apologist is in a bad mood, this is usually what it looks like. At this time, stepping forward to disturb is nothing more than touching the tiger's buttocks and touching the dragon's scales, and the consequences will be very serious.
After about ten minutes, the cathar came back to her senses and asked without raising her head, "Is there something wrong?" β
"There's a letter to this...... A letter to you......" Zhang Ping took out a gray envelope with some nervousness and handed it to the table with both hands.
After a few seconds, she tilted her head and glanced at it casually, only to see a few words written crookedly on the envelope: "Bi Tianye receives." β
With this stroke, the slightly clumsy handwriting gradually became clear in the rippling eyes, she suddenly shook her wit, pushed away the chair and stood up, took a few steps back in a row, and then pointed to the letter and ordered Zhang Ping: "Open it." β
The latter immediately stepped forward and opened the letter and took out the letterhead. He didn't dare to hesitate, let alone disobey, even if it was stained with poison, he didn't have any choice.
"Open." As if facing a great enemy, Bi Tianye stared at the letterhead and ordered again. She and eleven other apologists had seen his materials, knew his abilities, and knew his handwriting. If he had manipulated the letter and adhered to the parasitic cells, she would probably have been contained. The ontology has repeatedly emphasized that once he falls into his latent parasitism, he can only face the fate of pain and failure.
Zhang Ping carefully opened the letterhead, checked it repeatedly, and carefully groped for it, and after confirming that there was no problem, he spread it on the table.
Bi Tianye clasped his hands on his chest, stepped forward and looked at it for a while, and there was only one paragraph on the letter: "I think, we should have a good talk, maybe we have a chance to cooperate, I am waiting for you five kilometers south of the Crow Bridge, the gas station of the HH company, you don't bring people, I don't bring people, thank you." β
Seeing the last sentence, Bi Tianye couldn't help frowning, whether this iron slag was naΓ―ve or stupid, or if there was some other intention. Is it possible to ask the opposing sides not to take any men? Although the ontology repeatedly emphasizes that the goal is very cunning, this sentence is simply an insult to the wisdom of both sides, and even elementary school students may not be able to say it.
After pondering for a moment, Bi Tianye asked Zhang Ping where he found the letter. Zhang Ping said that he found it at the gate of the stronghold at the wharf, and when he saw the letter, he immediately sent people around to inquire about it. At that time, there were many porters near the dock, but no one said that they saw anyone coming.
"Hmm......" Bi Tianye thought for a moment and speculated, "This guy should have a subordinate who can hide skills......" After a while, she commanded again, "Call Li Min over." β
It didn't take long for Zhang Ping to call Li Min over.
"Have you checked the bottom of those people?" Bi Tianye asked slightly pointedly.
"The people they led the charge are called Wildfire, and they are all from Iron Mountain Town, and through this period of contact, I think they are likely to be friends of the target." Li Min said.
"Where are they now?" Bi Tianye continued to ask.
"There were three people out, two people nearby, and the rest were playing cards upstairs." Li Min replied.
Bi Tianye glanced at Zhang Ping, then at Li Min, and ordered: "Li Min, go back and gather everyone immediately, and when dinner comes, all of them will be arrested." β
"Yes." Li Min nodded heavily and left.
"Zhang Ping, go to the sheriff in this area, give him a bag of gold coins, and tell him to leave what happened here tonight."
"Yes." Zhang Ping bowed and immediately turned to leave.
Just as Bi Tianye began to lay out, their target was playing cards in the upstairs guest room, which was noisy.
"How can you make two twos, so you will lose." "You know what, it's called strategy." "Rookie, you're going to lose money again." "Don't prompt, don't make a noise when you look at the cards, otherwise it won't count." "Out of the big ghost, press him." "I'll buy you to win this game, come on."
At this time, the wildfire was lying in the corner of the room, smoking alone, spitting smoke rings out of the window, looking a little bored. It's been almost two months since I've been here, and I've spent a lot of money, but things haven't progressed at all. Looking at this group of five big and three rough men, he only felt a headache, they didn't look like they were here to work, but like they were here for vacation. Thinking of Lao Di's entrustment, he felt guilty. But now he is riding a tiger and it is difficult to ride, he is not walking, he is not staying, he doesn't know what he is doing every day, and he is getting more and more confused.
Moreover, through his inquiries during this time, there are currently two organizations looking for iron slag, one is the "Backlight Blade" under the Silver Knight Alliance, and the other is the "Dark Force" under the Far Eastern Spirit Snake Clan Council. These two organizations, both for him and for the big bosses behind the scenes, are irresistible behemoths.
Of course, he doesn't know much about the big boss, he only knows that he is a person from the Prayer Rain Temple, if it is only about the Prayer Rain Temple, the power is definitely not as strong as the Spirit Snake Clan, but if it is expanded to the Holy Mother of God, it will be greater than the Spirit Snake Clan's power, but it is still not as powerful as the Silver Knight Alliance.
All in all, he is like an ant that can be crushed to death at any time in front of these big forces. Since you can't do anything, you just don't waste money and go back to the Northern Wilderness. Thinking of this, he made a decision. Wait for another three days, and if there is no progress, dial the voice of the big boss behind the scenes and ask to return to end the mission.
A few hours later, in the evening, the three men who had gone out to investigate and the two who had been doing secret posts in the neighborhood returned, and the wildfire called everyone downstairs for dinner.
"Boss, do you have any drinks tonight?" "How about a drink for one?" "I didn't drink any alcohol last night, so I should have a drink tonight."
"Drink and drink, drink you to death." Wildfire cursed unhappily.
A moment later, the group came downstairs, sat around a large table, wildfire snapped their fingers, and when the waitress came, they asked for a glass of ale for each person.
"Great! Thanks Boss. "Wildfire, that's interesting!" "Hahaha, there's a drink...... everyone shouted excitedly.
After the ale came up, Wildfire coughed dryly and said, "While everyone is gathering today, I will announce a ......" He glanced around at everyone and said slowly, "If there is no news in three days, we will go back to the Northern Wilderness." β
As soon as the announcement was finished, everyone fell silent. In fact, they have a consensus for a long time, but they have not officially said it yet. This time, I traveled thousands of miles to the southern cemetery to find someone, but I didn't find anyone, so I was naturally a little lost. But their opponents are too strong, and their abilities are limited, staying here will cause trouble, so it is better to go back sooner.
Between thoughts, it seemed that someone slowly leaned over. Wildfire, who had been keeping his head down, suddenly noticed the abnormality around him, and suddenly looked up, only to see dozens of black-robed people surrounding him. I don't know when, they have formed a situation of encirclement.
Everyone quickly noticed the change in the situation from the wildfire expression, and while pretending to continue drinking, they secretly touched the knife and gun at their waists.
"I advise you, it's best not to move." In the tense atmosphere, a warm voice suddenly came from behind.
Immediately afterwards, the black-robed people around "hula", and before everyone could react, they lifted their hoods one after another, revealing the shiny power armor under the robe.
