Chapter Ninety-Four: The Strange War (3)

Mormones made all the preparations to see the members of the Secret Syndicate again after a long absence, including the intention of continuing to maintain the mystery. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Info He was almost ready to put on his old flying landing suit, but the pursuers behind the ship didn't give him even the time to do that. The spaceship was directly hit in half by the huge kinetic energy carried by the pursuers approaching at high speed, and the rear of the ship's cabin immediately turned into a ball of flames farther and farther away, and although Mormones was in the wheelhouse of the front cabin, the fire quickly surrounded him. This was supposed to be a very simple and short interstellar flight, and Mor Holmes didn't even make a minimum flight plan, and an accident actually happened. Mormones looked at the fire behind him, his thinking stopped, and his mind went blank, there was no glory of once earning a huge prize, and there was no memory of a gamblingly battle with Korors on an unknown planet, Mor Holmes looked in the direction of the satellite base, wondering why he didn't look towards the Nabra system. Perhaps because it was already too far away from him, like the distance of this life that was about to disappear, he closed his eyes and waited for the fire to come. The fire took Mormoth, broke through the old hunter of interstellar voyages, and plunged diagonally into the sea. The sea did not hesitate to accept the burning fire, and soon regained its calm, and even the Crown monitors did not have time to observe anything more. Endals looked at the frozen images on the screen and sent out salvage robots at the captain's request, hoping to recover the wreckage of the hunter in that area.

The two words that suddenly appeared in Mei Yi's mind occupied all his thoughts. The rapidly swollen body made the otherwise decent official uniform no longer fit. Four fingers held on to the pillars of the pavilion and waited for the earth to shake and shake, and the whirring wind blew in his ears, blowing the corner of Mei Yi's torn clothes. The dust was swept up by the wind, and it was only a dozen steps as far as the eye could see. After the ground stabilized a little, Mei Yi drilled through the doorway and came to the street. The originally empty street was dusty, and not far away, about the location of the old storyteller's shed, a large pit more than ten feet deep appeared on the ground. The smoke and dust from the pit mingled together, making it impossible to see what was at the bottom of the pit. Mei Yi stood on the edge of the pit and waited for the smoke to dissipate, there was a noise behind him, a large number of soldiers arrived, and after the long weapons set up like a jungle, it was the commander of the nearby military camp who came on horseback. Before the commander arrived, he turned over and dismounted, and took a few steps forward to greet Mei Yi's safety. Mei Yi waved his hand, it was really timely, the military camp was not too close to here, not to mention that he had to gather soldiers. He couldn't help but suspect that the unification brought, compared to the unification belt, Mei Yi's grade was much higher, and the imperial envoy of the fourth grade in a small place was prominent. With some explanation, it turned out that the soldiers were practicing before the loud noise. Mei Yi laughed at himself and was suspicious, he was really troubled by those old things. The soldiers surrounded the pit and did not allow anyone to approach, Mei Yi and Tong waited for the smoke and dust to slowly dissipate, and saw the contents of the pit clearly. It was when he saw the black stone that Mei Yi's swelling came again, and he suddenly realized something and looked down at himself. Yes, there was no human recovery, but why wasn't everyone surprised, including the band? Mei Yi opened his mouth to ask, but the commander in front of him suddenly disappeared with hundreds of soldiers, and there was only Mei Yi standing on the edge of the pit and the stones in the pit in front of him.

Mei Yi's swelling did not go away, and in order to prevent being discovered, he returned home and closed the door. Although I still can't let go of that stone in my heart, it is obvious that letting people discover their secrets will make those old things who are far away in the capital unhappy. The general belt came again, and the people who brought it hula-la-opened a courtyard. Mei Yi saw it through the crack in the window, but instead of going out to receive it, he asked through the window to bring out the stone ideas in the pit. Mei Yi waited for himself to return to his human form before going out, this time was just to make Tong Dai busy with some useful things, and a group of people in the province stayed in the courtyard and looked at the house, making Mei Yi very uncomfortable. Fortunately, Mei Yi felt that he was starting to improve, so he changed his clothes and came out of the yard, and he just came in to report that the stone had not been moved out. Mei Yi glared at Tong Dai dissatisfied, and squeezed out a few words from his mouth, rice bucket. There are only seven grades in the belt, so he can only bear it, and follow Mei Yi to the edge of the pit to check. It seems that there is no anomaly in the whole body of the stone except for the anomaly of black color. The volume is not huge, so it can't be moved. The commander called people to erect a triangular bracket on the edge of the pit, the rope firmly tied the stone, everyone exerted force several times but did not see the stone move, Mei Yi ordered the soldiers, try their best to dig, this stone seems to be more than as big as everyone sees.

That was the end of the expedition, and Curris thought it was more like a decent trip. Cleaning up the battlefield is actually waiting for the soldiers to collect all the meat they are interested in. The minor leaders disagree with Kuris's arrangement, and they insist on following Kuris to the cities of their realm. Curris frowned, how did the soldiers in front of him who were still eating large pieces of human flesh be brought to the territory. It's an annoying question, and of course an annoying question, where the hell is here. Fortunately, Curis was able to use his memories and the traces left by the soldiers of Bules to make his way towards the valley. However, many traces of the road surface had been destroyed after the rain, and a strange team was slowly moving behind Curis, which made Endals feel strange when he looked at the monitor. It seems that the wonderful part is basically over, and it is time to take a break. With Auto-Record storage mode turned on, Endals let the screen go to sleep and he left the console. It should be the cause of fatigue, coupled with the high-frequency rays carried by the fragmented star wreckage flying in the universe, which caused the discomfort of the two of them, not to mention the heaviness of the limbs, and the feeling of swelling has always existed.

Hawkins pushed off all the activity he could have done lately, just to make way for one thing. The activities of the clandestine group are to be held, and the designated members must participate. Hawkins couldn't help but look forward to hearing that this meeting would be attended by important people from all walks of life, and he was curious to know what it was like him to be a member of the group. It can't be like the craftsmen who suddenly appeared on the streets of Kyoto in a considerable number not long ago, Hawkins thought as he drove his carriage down the street. Some were absent-minded, and the police officer named Hawkins who suddenly appeared on the street was a little caught off guard. He reined in his horse and asked unhappily why he had stopped the carriage. To Hawkins' surprise, the police officer did not address him as Prime Minister, but said coldly, Mr. Hawkins, you are on the wrong track. You should go back and turn left at the second junction. Why, Hawkins blurted out. The officer led the horse and helped Hawkins' carriage turn around and said everyone wants you to do it. Hawkins was shocked, could it be that the group was quietly informing him of the change in the location of the meeting? The group can be described as elusive, he turned his head to look at the police officer behind him, he was long gone. Hawkins wondered if the man was a police officer.

The meeting place chosen by the group was not far at all, and after turning left at the second junction, the carriage had not gone far before it stopped, because it was a dead end. The alley is lined with three-story workshop buildings, and Hawkins concludes that he has never been here. He tried to push open the wooden door on the first floor and entered, the creaking sound of the floor was eerie. Strangely enough, there was no second person, and Hawkins descended the spiral staircase to the bottom floor, where the staircase continued. Hawkins thinks he still has to go down, and he can't say why he can't say himself. After walking four or five stories high, a passage appeared, and at the end of the long passage there was a fire. That's probably where the meeting will be. Hawkins straightened his clothes and hairstyle and walked down the passage into the flaming hall.

When he was younger, he also participated in one such event, which can be regarded as a ceremony to enter the group. The memories of those years have long been a little blurred, and only one sign remains firmly in Curris's memory. The triangle contains a circle, standing in the center of the hall, and the hollow shape is illuminated by the firelight and reflects a huge shadow on the wall. Hawkins finally saw the others who had come with him, but unfortunately everyone was wearing masks. Hawkins was about to try to cover his face when a hand behind him handed him a mask, a thin chin, a mask that looked a little disgusting. Hawkins was unhappy to put on his mask and stood inconspicuously in the crowd. Judging from the formation of the crowd, the hierarchy of the group is by no means just a legend. The man standing in the front row, tall, with his body wrapped in a black cloak, turned his back to the crowd. Hawkins couldn't think of anyone at the forefront, and the level in the group was not exactly the same as the level in that society under the sun. Perhaps there are inconspicuous-looking craftsmen in the front row, but Hawkins, as the prime minister of Britain, can only be worthy of standing in the back row.

After a long wait, the hall was still waiting. The dullness of the darkness makes people impatient. The people in the front row seemed to be discussing something. One of them ascended to the high platform in the middle of the hall, took off the broad hat from his cloak, and wore a mask that only covered half of his face, and informed him that the meeting needed to be postponed indefinitely. The man did not give a reason, but went on to say that the challenges faced by the Empire of Blions at this time from the territory were also challenges faced by the group, and that the members of the group needed to better combine their responsibilities in society with the interests of the group. This is understandable, and for Hawkins, it is to continue to suppress and eliminate the rebel forces in the territory. After speaking, the man came down from the platform, and the members of the group began to worship the sign. Hawkins was no exception, leaning over as he smoothed out the short tail that had reappeared. From the moment I entered here, my body changed a little. Presumably, the people in the front row wore cloaks to avoid such embarrassment. In the interval between prostrating himself on the ground, Hawkins began to wonder who the somewhat familiar-sounding voice just now came from.

Hawkins is sure that the voice appeared sometime not long ago. He carefully revisited the speech he had just heard and found a detail. When the speaker spelled out a word, there was a clear gap between them, a gap that almost no one could understand, and Hawkins thought of who that person was. At first, this man was just a surgeon who quietly changed his career at the behest of his father, giving up his noble profession of serving God and turning to treating people's dental diseases. Even so, this person did not wholeheartedly become a dentist. His spare time interest is to study the origins of various animals. It was the second year that the Imperial Navy had become the strongest navy in Europa, in order to spread the prestige of the Empire and to prepare for the opening up of more overseas territories. The Imperial Navy converted the newly built Berg into an as-is survey sailing ship and began to map and revise the charts of the world's main shipping lanes as a whole. The man who spoke did not know where he came from, and became a part-time chaplain on board the ship. Weird thing, absolutely. No warship has ever sailed with a dentist other than a surgeon, and the spokesman is a part-time priest.

Flying the flag of the huge Brillian Empire, the warship Berg set sail west along the Empire's largest military port, Primus, to the west. This gave the priest a good opportunity, and he did not devote much time to religious service to the soldiers and crew, but he was not idle. Everywhere they arrived, they would be the first to land with the first soldiers. By the time the soldiers were protecting the surveying geographers, the priest had long since disappeared with his specimen clips. Over time, everyone got used to it, and this person was lucky and there was no danger. It's not that I haven't encountered it, but he has saved the day. It was impossible to guess how he was able to get in and out of the cannibalistic tribes unscathed, but it was excellent luck. More than three years after the priest returned to Breth, he looked tired and removed several boxes of specimens from the ship, as well as an entire box of notes.

These are things in the past, and the reason why Hawkins can still remember them clearly is mainly because of an incident that came later. If the pastor continues to be his dentist or pastor, it will be fine, and he actually finds Hawkins through layers of connections to give a formal speech to Congress. Hawkins replied at the time, asking him what he was going to say, purely out of courtesy. Unexpectedly, the priest said that he wanted to uncover a lie that had deceived mankind for a long time among the respected adults of the Imperial Council. Hawkins thought he was a madman, but he had publicly stated that the Prime Minister had acceded to his request. Hawkins believed that if he wanted to flatly deny it, it would arouse the suspicion of the opposition, so he arranged for the secretary to coordinate the time. The decision drew criticism from the lawmakers, and Hawkins could only shrug at them and point in the direction of the pastor to show that he was helpless. He sat in the first row, trying to hear exactly what the pastor was going to talk about.

The priest and his retinue brought his own specimens, and several large boxes were placed in the center of the council, which were opened one by one, and filled them in order. This move confused everyone, and they all exchanged heads and talked about it. The pastor begged everyone to be quiet and began his speech. At the beginning of the speech, the pastor surprised everyone by saying that humans were transformed from monkeys. The silence in the room was broken for several minutes before it was broken by a burst of laughter. Then almost everyone burst out laughing. As a pastor, he actually denied that his Lord was the creator of mankind, is there such a funny thing in the world? The priest did not express any emotion, he waited quietly for everyone to laugh until they no longer wanted to laugh, and began to read his notes. The notes are so lengthy that many people fall asleep after being unfamiliar with complex terms, but Hawkins listens very carefully. He found that he was not only listening, but he was even slowly beginning to convince himself to accept the pastor's point of view.

Unexpectedly, the pastor is also a member of the group, and his rank far exceeds that of the prime minister. The affairs of the group are not something that any one member can understand, and Hawkins cannot guess. The Lord created mankind and sent His children as His incarnations to save mankind and atone for the sins of mankind, which has been a foregone conclusion for thousands of years, so why do pastors think they have the power to overthrow it? The pastor would never make those strange statements on his own behalf, it is more likely that he represents the group. As Hawkins thought about it, he didn't notice that someone's foot, hidden by the long corners of his cloak, had stopped in front of him. A familiar voice appeared, Dear Lord Hawkins, please stay a little longer after the ceremony. Hawkins knew who it was, and it seemed that there was something important about it, and this time there was no need for a middleman to pass on the information. But then I thought about it, even this person is not necessarily the core of the group.
