As the New Year's bells fade into their ears, the people of the Northern Regions drift off to sleep, gathering energy for the upcoming celebrations. www.biquge.info They hope that after the calamity, in the new year, the Most High Lord will take care of them, so that the calamity will not befall them, and that everything will be safe and smooth in the year.

This year will be an extremely important one for the Northern Regions. For on the island of oracles, a cardinal archbishop of the High Church is about to depart. He will slowly make his way around the territory of the Empire, and will arrive in the Northern Regions on July 7 at the Divine Presence to stay in the newly built Elma Cathedral, bathing the Northern Regions, which has not heard the will of God for 400 years.

The Most High Church believes in the only true God in this world, even if they admit that this true God will not be born into the world until the future, and even if no one in the world knows the true name of this High Lord, but since the history of mankind, the Most High Church and the Most High God it believes in have always had an incomparably great influence in this world. Not only the citizens of the Empire, but even among the guilty people there was an extremely large base of believers.

At one point, Ian was speechless at this discovery.

Because it's ridiculous.

How is it that the one true God, who has not yet been born and who has no name, has made the world so devout and even fanatical about Him?

Even the argument that the power of the Supreme Church is enormous is far from explaining this phenomenon.

However, although he could not understand the reason for this, this did not prevent Ian from praying to the One Allah from time to time after living in this world for sixteen years.

At this moment, all the beings in the Northern Regions are sincerely praying for the good of the new year, but no one expected that on the first day of the new year, the calamity has quietly revealed its signs.

At 4 a.m., inside the Grand Duke's mansion.

Lying on the soft bed in the Grand Duke's mansion, Ian struggled to adjust for a moment. This poor man, who was accustomed to sleeping in a hard bed in both the previous life and this life, suddenly lost sleep when he was suddenly faced with this soft bed that could sink half of his body into it.

In my previous life, I thought about sleeping in this kind of bed once, but I didn't expect it to come true in this life. But why can't you sleep when you get your wish?

Am I really the life of a poor man? I was born to be on the same page as a hard bed?

Thinking of this, Ian shook his head fiercely.

I must have heard too many secrets from Khan Parks tonight, so I couldn't sleep when I was so sleepy.

Yes, it must be!

With a grin, Ian jerked all of it out of his mind, closed his eyes, and performed his long-lost sheep counting stunt.......

The world became extremely quiet at this moment, and the sheep in his mind crossed the fence one by one, but just as Ian was about to fall asleep, he suddenly felt a tremor in the ground.

Ian opened his eyes in an instant and sat up. Ever since he had achieved swordsmanship and crossed the Sage's Gate, he himself had been extremely sensitive to fluctuations in the outside world. The tremor was so slight that no one could detect it, but he believed he was not mistaken.

And then, as if to confirm his perception, there were bursts of tremors from under the earth again, and the amplitude of the tremors was obviously larger and larger each time.

It seemed that some behemoth in the underground of the Northern Regions was gradually waking up from its slumber, and began to stir its body, colliding with the rock formations that were negatively pressing on it.

The dust on the beams was shaken off, the calm water rippled, the things placed on the table clicked, and the house seemed to shake. At this moment, the originally solid and flat earth seemed to have turned into a gentle lake, and everything in the northern region seemed to have become a small boat floating on the surface of the lake, swaying from side to side.

"It's ...... Earthquake!"

Realizing what was happening, Ian jumped out of bed. For the first time in sixteen years, he had seen an earthquake for the first time since he was born on this land. The whole ground shook endlessly, and if he hadn't been specially trained to have a sense of balance, he would have had some difficulty even standing.

With such a big movement, everyone in the Northern Regions should have been aware of it.

As soon as such a thought flashed through his mind, the panicked shouts of the guards and maids sounded outside the window.

"Ian!"

The door to the room was opened, and Phil stood outside in a nightgown. Apparently she was the first to notice it.

"Fei'er, why are you here?" Ian was stunned, hurriedly ran out and grabbed her hand, pulled it to the windowsill, and said, "It's an earthquake, let's go out first!"

"Hmm. Fei'er nodded: "There are guards and maids below, it's not convenient for me to do it now, you take me down." ”

"Good!" Ian replied. He understood what Fei'er meant, the place where he lived was on the fifth floor, if Fei'er jumped directly and landed safely, I was afraid that the truth about her strength would be exposed immediately. However, just as he opened the window door of the room and looked back at Fei'er, he was suddenly stunned.

Should I hold or carry my back?

Ian just felt like he wanted to punch himself hard right now. In such an urgent situation, I was still thinking about these things.

But then, this unpromising otaku gritted his teeth violently, and when Fei'er was surprised, he pulled her over and hugged her horizontally in his arms. The faint fragrance hit the nostrils almost instantly, and the girl's light and boneless body made Ian feel his palms sweaty.

He didn't dare to look at the expression in the eyes of the girl in his arms, only that his whole body was heating up rapidly, and his heart was beating fast, and he could almost say that he couldn't wait to jump out of the window directly.

The wind was slightly cold in the early morning, and Ian hoped that the cold wind would cool him down as quickly as possible. However, contrary to his wishes, these cold winds did not do anything at all, but seemed to fuel the fire, making his palms almost hot the moment he landed.

It's over, it's dead, and I'll be killed by Fei'er!

Ian never knew that because of a small decision, his head could become so chaotic that after hitting the ground, the whole person froze in place, and couldn't help but start thinking about it, not even realizing that the brief earthquake had stopped.

However, at this moment, there was a sudden commotion not far away, the crowd was respectfully separated, and Khan Parkes, the Grand Duke of the Northern Regions, appeared in front of the confused Ian with an anxious face, and after seeing this scene, the whole person couldn't help but pause.

"Can you tell me, what's going on?"

After a long time, Khan Parks smiled brightly.
