8. Chapter 8 Set sail in confusion
The sea is very calm, more than forty small boats carrying the old and young of Gordon Town, under the leadership of Captain Vic, one after another~, because the ship is too small, it can't carry too many supplies at all, just a ship is crowded with more than a dozen people, which makes Vic frown, but what makes people even more frowning is that there are a few old stubborn people in Gordon Town who don't want to leave the town that is about to be slaughtered
Lance's mother is one of them, and Old Li De is also one of them, and there are some old men who really can't walk, they claim to die in Gordon Town, at least it's better than being swallowed by a behemoth in the sea, besides, in order to create a perfect alibi for Lance and others, they still need to point out the queen of the palace~, the old men in Gordon Town have also experienced the last battle with the Night Beasts, how to use a little fish blood to disguise a messy battlefield, it couldn't be easier for them
The sun is very bright, the monsters in the sea generally do not dare to attack the fleet at will at this time, the mighty fleet after careful planning, decided to kill directly to the port of Fira, known as the capital of freedom, although Fira is under the control of the royal city, but because it is located in the northwest, bordering the barbarians of the far north, the complexity of the population is not comparable to Gordon Town or Mist Harbor, all kinds of people are living there, trade, seeking pleasure, exchanging information, and carrying out the most common assassination in this big town~
After arriving at Fira, the stone bridge leading to the Blue Knight Kingdom had already been broken hundreds of years ago, and no matter how much power Wang Cheng sent, the broken stone bridge was like a stubborn disease on Wang Cheng's body, and it could never be repaired. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info And it is said that the knight country has already learned how to maintain the existence of the fire source, so far, Wang Cheng can only turn a blind eye, just hope that those knight non-commissioned officers who have been undercover before can still remember their identity, until Wang Cheng kicks a moment from the current crisis, maybe another big war will be launched again, who knows, the people in the sea port of Fira are just guessing about this, after all, the people of the knight country are quite difficult to mess with like Wang Cheng, to spy on some reliable information, it is simply impossible not to pay the price of some blood
Princess, Lance, and Vic were on the first boat, leading the flotilla behind them to rock the oars overtime, and the young men of Gordon were divided equally into different boats, making sure that all the ships could travel at a guaranteed speed. For this matter, Gordon and Vic almost fought, and even Parma, who has always supported Gordon, was almost pulled by the fishermen's captain Moxi to the lineup belonging to Vic, after all, it is necessary to turn the battle strategy, Vic is superior, not to mention moving forward in this bottomless ocean, without Vic's guidance, I am afraid that it will not be the turn of the night, and the group will be overturned by the unscrupulous whale school
But Lance said righteously, "Vic, I know you are a hard-hearted person, but can you leave these people behind?Sandri, Sarah, Freya, they are all people who have suffered with us, staying in Gordon Town is undoubtedly waiting for death, except for those old stubborns, I really can't just watch them be captured and returned to the royal city to suffer, if we do this, we will spend the rest of our lives in endless guilt~!"
But Vic's answer was still so calm, "My bridge keeper, I'm so grateful to your family for taking me in, you know, a half-breed bastard like me can't even get a decent job in Mist Harbor, who made me fucking have two inconspicuous gills on my chin, I fucking cursed my fish-man dad from his ancestors to myself, can I be blamed for this? I can only blame me for having such a miserable fate, and even more so for the disgusting fish-man who should have grown what should have been human." But just for the sake of your family's acceptance of me, I will take you to the north and south, but Lance, you must know that we who may have done something will be dragged half to death by this group of old and weak women and children, and the end will be that everyone will die, so you will be happy, right?!"
Lance will not allow this kind of thing to happen at all, Daddy Gordon's teachings have always been engraved in Lance's heart, "Boy, you have to remember a truth, give up any companion, you will regret it for the rest of your life!", every time he said this, Gordon would fall into silence in the future, could it be that Dad had ever given up a partner who could still be saved, the question in Lance's heart has not been resolved
But it's all in the past, it happened, it happened, and Lance couldn't change anything to make Dad happy. But Lance at least knew that no one would give up on the next few weeks of the tormenting journey, and as long as Vic could find the next stone bridge pier accurately before the night came, everyone would still be saved. As for the lack of supplies and water sources on the way, it was all handed over to Moxi and Vic, and after hearing the plan, these two people wanted to hammer Lance on the spot and scold their mother one by one, not to mention that after the princess heard these plans, she had the urge to jump directly into the sea
When it comes to food, in order to survive the next few weeks, the fishermen's captain Moxie can show his skills, tying a long rope to the young man who knows how to swim with a rod, jumping directly into the sea and spearfishing. And if you want to hunt a larger fish quickly, you naturally have to use some fish meat as bait, blood stains spread much faster in the ocean than on land, and dog sharks with smart noses will come one after another, so that the fishing nets scattered between the fleets can play a role, as long as they are not burned, the fishing nets that have been used for decades are not so easy to damage, and they are also the spider silk of the night beasts and half-spiders~, but this kind of fishing is bound to be extremely dangerous, God knows what will happen, so Moxi has an urge to bite Lance to death~
But the stomachs of hundreds of people must be filled, Moxi, who has no other way, can only obey the order to go fishing, now it has been out to sea for a long time, the sunset has fallen to the distant sea level, and there are only some small fish in the fishing nets are still alive and kicking, what to eat tonight, it really gives Lance and Vic a headache
But the headache is the problem of fresh water, because the time point of leaving Gordon Town is too close to Lance and the others to fight the heavy horse Kodten, the group almost slid down the cliff from the cable, and immediately set off with the women, children, old and young who were hiding here before, there is not enough time to prepare fresh water, so Bick scolded while taking the helm, this is fucking my life~
Because Lance knew Vic's secret, Gordon once told Lance that the urine of the fish-man is very similar to freshwater, and his father must have drunk the urine of the fish-man during the siege of the night-walking beast for several months many years ago~~
So from that moment on, Lance cheered up Vic's bad idea, who was at the helm with his left hand at the moment, and his right hand was holding his belly bigger than seven or eight months pregnant, and he kept scolding in his heart why this Lance didn't die. But when he thought that everyone had relied on what he had spewed out to get through the next few weeks, Vic was still a little relieved, so wouldn't Lance's little sister be able to get close to her own words with her own little mouth? Hahahaha, what was Vic thinking about couldn't hide from Lance's eyes, so Lance didn't say a word, and continued to scoop up a large scoop of seawater from the sea, and sent it to Vic's mouth without saying a word, and the latter seemed to tell Lance with dull eyes, do you want me to die here today~~~
When the princess saw this scene, she directly vomited all kinds of food that was not in her stomach, and thought that Vic's smelly liquid was regularly poured into various bottles and jars and passed through the current to the ships behind, and the princess didn't want to believe that this was what Lance and others said, "The amount of fresh water refined with the princess's fire spell is limited, everyone should save it!" , The princess didn't even have the appetite to eat, and some tears couldn't help but flow out of the corners of her eyes, and she began to weigh the gains and losses brought by this escape, and the princess actually had a little bit of time in which the inner regret occupied the dominant position in her heart~
Lance was already too tired, Vic's guy was like a stream flowing endlessly, changed Palma and continued to play, Lance sat down beside the princess, looking at the princess's sad and cool appearance, Lance actually had an urge to pinch Princess Qianqianqian's little hand, but he didn't expect the latter to ignore the suspicion of men and women, and pinched Lance's only remaining right hand before Lance, and fell next to Lance's arm
Both of them are very sluggish, and the road ahead is a blessing or a curse, and there is no letter at all~
What lingered in Lance's heart was his mother's determined gaze, and the calm feeling of those old stubborn people who had to stay with their mother
"Why don't you leave?", Lance wondered, "My mother's explanation to me doesn't make sense at all, my father's bones are not here, it's just that I can't bear everything my father left behind, even if I die, I want to stay in Gordontown?"
But the old stubborn answer left Lance and his three sisters with no room to argue
"You must be lucky to leave this time, so that the people of the royal city think that you are dead, you will be safer, at least before you reach the knightly country where you are going. Don't look at a few of us old bones, but they are all old heroes left over from the last war, don't worry, the people of Wangcheng will definitely think that you have all died in the battle with the Night Beasts, and the scene of the forge point is too simple for us."
"As for your mother, even if we still have a breath, we won't let her be hurt in any way, so go with peace of mind, Lance, and my little Parma, Moxie, you boys must be united!
Speaking of this, Lance's three sisters and Lance cried without a doubt, but what they didn't expect was that even Vic, who had always been lonely, and even Freya the old bustard squeezed out a few tears and said, "Don't worry, after arriving at Fira, I will lead the sisters of Gordon Town to break out of a sky that belongs to women, and let the men continue to worship under our pomegranate skirt~", which makes the sadness of separation a little dramatic happiness~
Thinking of this, Lance pinched a string of stone beads in his hand, which was the only token that his mother gave to him before leaving, claiming to be a token of Gordon's love when he pursued his mother, and his mother repeatedly reiterated that he would always take it with him, don't forget his heroic father and great mother, Lance put the belt on his only remaining right hand, and now the princess's annoying little hand actually began to play with this string of stone beads, naturally Lance had a heart and pinched it into his hand to avoid the princess touching too much~
Calm, still calm, occasionally you can hear the cry of a baby from the boat behind, or the sound of struggling oars, on the endless sea, finally under this fatal calm, ushered in the first shadow of the stone bridge that can be seen, in the cheers of everyone, Lance finally came back to his senses....

Gordon Town has never been so hot, only from the last war to the present, because a few old guys actually sprinkled everything with fish oil, and now the burning houses make the smoke of Gordon Town go straight into the sky, so that the horse-drawn carriage that is galloping in the distance suddenly stops~
The little scout said with a hint of uneasiness, "Lord Dath, maybe, maybe this weak town has really been breached~~~, we~~"
Dath was furious under the silence on his face, "Damn, I can't get back the thing that the princess took away, my old face will be cut into pieces when I go back, but I think you have the same purpose, Master Byron~"
Just as the little scout was surprised that such a high-level secret even a black-robed Darth knew about it, it seemed that Wang Cheng's intelligence line should really be sorted out, but at the moment, it was not to fight with this old guy, but to decide the next step
"It will take two hours to reach Gordon Town, during which we will think about how to go back and report if it is the worst ending, I believe that if we are on the same front, no matter what the result is, we will not be thrown into the prison to wait for death~", the little scout said, glanced at the two red-robed people beside him with one eye, and then quickly turned his gaze to the black-robed Darth, who instantly understood what he meant, and continued to say knowingly
"That's right, Young Master Byron's judgment is really like a dragon among people, so early to plan for the future, the younger generation of the Cohen family is really not to be underestimated, you two red-robed Bourne, learn what strategy is from Young Master Byron, don't gossip and ruin your future when you go back to the royal city~"
With that, the two red-robed men hurriedly nodded to the little scout, this courteous attitude made the little scout sick, exactly like the poor ghosts who came to the door and begged for a little more forgiveness of the debt
But at this moment, the group of little guys imprisoned in the carriage are not so lucky, all the dirty and smelly cloth is gagged, and the eyes are wide and completely unaware that the doom of death has come, you must know that as the dirtiest poor ghost street in Mist Harbor, there are everywhere this kind of little guys who can sell everything they have for a silver coin, which is not accepted by humans but there is nowhere to accept their existence, who makes them bastards left behind by the night beasts after the rape in the world, before the ability is developed, these little guys are no different from ordinary human children, the saddest mixed race in the whole world, can only be used as a stepping stone on this grand chessboard, not even conventional cannon fodder~

The only thing that hasn't been ignited in Gordon is Lance's house, and at the moment there are five people sitting in the small home, Lance's mother and the four old bones left
However, the sight in front of him, if Lance and his three sisters saw it, would be extremely disgusting
The charred heavy rider Kord was being stripped of his slimy armor by Lance's mother, removing a layer of carbonized flesh from the surface, and the flesh that was sticking to the bones still had a little blood stains. Without saying a word, Lance's mother tore off a thigh and gnawed it, and a few old bones next to him were unceremoniously eaten, and the dignified Knight Kord was dismembered like this and became a meal on the plate of everyone here~
In an instant, the valiant Knight of Kord had turned into a pile of white bones, and two old bones broke these bones, and then went out for a walk around Gordontown, mixed with fish blood, and really looked like humans who had been eaten by the Night Beasts~
Of course, this incomprehensible cannibalism did not appear to the two young men who were dealt with by Kord, who were well buried and thrown directly into the burning house, to be kissed and caressed by the flames
When everyone was gathered in the small room again, the tall old bone finally spoke
"Queen, I didn't expect that human flesh is still delicious", said that, an indescribable smile appeared on his face, and after a closer look, this old guy's tiger teeth suddenly grew a lot, and the armor like scales gradually appeared on his arms, and his five fingers even stretched out some sharp claws
Another old man also said, "For decades, I have eaten some fish and bread every day, if it weren't for the more reliable women here, I would have wanted to die."
But before anyone else could complain, Lance's mother raised her head and said seriously, "You old fellows are still endless, since you have decided to follow me, you must get used to human life!"
Under the fluttering black hair, the two eyes turned blood-red, and the peasant woman's clothes were also cracked with the drastic changes in her body, and the moment the last fig leaf fell to the ground, several old guys reacted
The queen is the queen, even after decades of ups and downs, even if she was overwhelmed by Gordon's stinky boy and wantonly humiliated and gave birth to four cubs, but the queen's colorful figure and powerful combat power have not changed in the slightest, and several old bones have immediately changed their shapes, five powerful chameleons, the race that sat firmly in the position of the Great Elder of the Night Beast Heaven hundreds of years ago, has finally reappeared in the world
After turning into her original form, everyone's communication no longer needs to be through words, but directly through overwhelming telepathic communication, and the queen once again gives orders to everyone
"You old perverts, don't beat me later, you must know that you can't even beat Gordon, I can't give birth to a child for you, if you want to blame, you will be blamed for being too careless!"
"However, if you want to use strength, don't blame me for eating one or two of you after being seriously injured to replenish your vitality, I don't want to worry about that child in vain, so I want a woman, wait until I return to the clan with me!"
The old bones led just now finally reluctantly put away their evil desires, the chameleon is the closest to the human race, except for a fat tail behind the buttocks, as well as the sharp claws on the palms and the sharp teeth protruding from the mouth, from a close distance, the chameleon is simply a human with a strange cortex. Therefore, the shyness of Lance's mother was seen in the eyes of several old men, swallowed in their hearts, and stored in their minds so that they could be loved. However, now that the queen has spoken, it is still the matter of the clan that matters, and several old perverts also know what the meaning of lurking for many years is, and they are all serious
A chubby old guy next to him interjected with telepathy, "Queen, I didn't expect you to love Lance so much, with your ability, why don't you let Lance awaken the power of our clan quickly, so that Lance will not lose an arm and eyes, it's simply astray!"
However, the queen was silent for a moment before replying, "That Lance kid, he can't and doesn't need this kind of power for the time being, he must use his ability to create a sky. If he touches something outside the rules too early like his father Gordon, he will die too quickly sooner or later, and my clan's years of hard work will come to naught in an instant, so you old guys, if you meet my son in the future, remember to be measured, act at the opportunity, and never let the seedlings grow, remember to remember!"
The group fell silent again, and it was the queen who broke the silence and gave everyone a bottom in their hearts
"Presumably those old stubborns sent a team to rescue Frye Fordie, let's leave this matter alone and focus on the fire source in front of us! Wait for us to lurk in the ruins on the outskirts of Gordon Town, exchange enough time for peace, and then quietly leave, I am not afraid of fighting, but after following me for so many years, I want to bring you all back, instead of being captured and sent to the Council of Great Elders to enjoy the torture of the rest of your life"
The group was excited, after so many years, the queen still takes care of everyone so much, this love is worth it even if it is dead. But everyone knows very well that the queen's affectionate and righteous character is also the reason why she had to flee many years ago, but she didn't expect that after everyone saw the princess who fled from the royal city this time, they felt from the bottom of their hearts that this world was disgusting, regardless of race, there were conspiracy and conspiracy, thinking of this, several old ministers no longer hesitated, and began to do the work of guards seriously~
The queen slashed her wrist with her sharp claws, and the blood dripped onto the raging fire, at first, the blood droplets were turned into clouds of smoke and dispersed, but as the blood increased a little bit, the fire seemed to be unbearable, and gradually extinguished little by little, before the last trace of flame was extinguished, a roar came from it, which was the familiar sound of a flame servant
"The last descendant of the subspecies of dragons, the queen of chameleons, if you dare to steal the seeds of the source of fire, are you not afraid that you will be burned in the eternal flames until the end of the world?"
Without waiting for the queen to answer, the last sentence came from the voice like a shadow, "Haha, okay, let the darkness come faster, in line with the master's arrangement, the balance has long been broken, you reluctant, let you taste endless despair in full of expectations, this incident, we will turn a blind eye and don't bother to ask~." , on the love you have been plotting for hundreds of years, however, everything has a price, and this time the price is that your son will meet a powerful enemy in the great harbor of Fira, which is fair, isn't it, hahaha....."
The queen had long expected this scene, and calmly conveyed the message to the old ministers who were already stunned, "Don't worry, if Lance can't even survive this danger, how can he save everything he can save~"
With that, the queen carefully wrapped the reddish hedron in animal skin, she was already a little dizzy from excessive blood loss, but she still swallowed this mass of things into her stomach without hesitation, and several old ministers around silently resisted the queen, and gradually left towards the ruins on the outskirts of Gordon Town
Lance's home suddenly burst into flames from the inside out, the walls began to crumble, and the mural faded into a cloud of smoke as the flames grew.....

......
Under the cliff, Frye Laken, who quietly watched Lance and his party go away, held Frye Forky, who was still choking on water, and found a hidden cliff hole to hide, after all, the sun was too dazzling, even the black eye goggles couldn't last long
I wanted to call this guy a "traitor" directly Frye Rakken, his head still can't wipe those happy times when he was young last year, grandpa will always bring human children, let Raken play half dead before slowly eating, not every birdman's child has such treatment, other birdmen have to learn to fight with humans since childhood, of course, duels with other night beasts are not a problem, but grandpa takes care of himself, grandpa once said that he will be the best hunter in the entire ruined forest, the most powerful aviator, so Frye Laken's young body, did not leave any scars~
But it was also such meticulous care that made Frye Laken's youth endure all kinds of hardships, from the day his grandfather disappeared, the young people of various tribes who had long been dissatisfied with him took turns to attack Laken, a deep paw print on his chest, and a long corroded trace from his right eye to his left eye, all of which were Laken's shame
Raken, from the bottom of his heart, not only wanted to save this grandfather who loved him, but also wanted to abandon him, and asked what he should ask and left, but the tragic situation of the grandfather really made Rakken soften his heart and decided to look at the situation first
However, his grandson's every move has long been seen by Frye Fockie, and the care of his relatives did not follow one after another after he got out of trouble. But who can blame this? Rakken's father was caught as a skewer by humans very early, this child has no father's love, as a grandfather, he can only use some inexplicable, strange and ancient ways to amuse him, although it may not have much effect, but at least it will not make little Rakken feel bored, as a grandfather, it can be regarded as a try, after all, across a generation, there may be a lot of differences in all aspects of thinking
Frye Foky coughed twice, spit out the last seawater in his mouth, relieved himself, and looked seriously at his grandson, who had grown up, with purple and black feathers all over Laken's body, this pride made Fockie, who was a grandfather, nod and said
"Kid, you've grown up!"
But the response was a cold sentence, "Indeed, in the time you are away, I have grown up very quickly~"
Without waiting for Raken to say the next sentence, Forge continued, "It's also painful, isn't it, kid? No way, this is the survival law of the tribe, the law of survival of the jungle is the same everywhere, even the town of Gordon in front of you is about to be destroyed~"
Raken looked at his grandfather in surprise, waiting for more news to come
"Don't worry about the clansmen, the secrets that should be guarded are still hidden in me", Folkie pointed to his head with his soaked wings, he knew that he must not tell the fact that the fourth fire source has been owned by humans, so that he will become worthless in the tribe, let alone go back to retire and eat some good things, let alone find two eggs to continue his happiness~
"The guy Gordon killed that day, imprisoned me for so many years, do you want to know why he is the only one who didn't kill me?"
"....Why?"
"It's very simple, it's because someone is helping him, it's our tribe helping him, I must find this traitor!
"You know, I'm the only one in the tribe who has been inspired by the Wild Leaf. But the one who knew about this was the Great Council of Elders at that time, so if I go back with you this time, I will arrest our traitors, otherwise the tribe will always want to fight against this group of inferior creatures, this group of hateful human beings!"
Raken was silent, sure enough, it made sense to rescue grandpa, and at this moment Raken asked again
"Grandpa," he used the title again, "what are the people down there doing who are in a hurry to go to sea? It stands to reason that when you go out to sea to fish, you don't need women, children, old and children, do you want to flee from here?"
"You're right, it's probably the Fire Festival in the royal city, you have to catch a lot of strong men from Gordon Town, since you can't resist, you can only run away, these guys are really cowardly~", Frye Fogie said hesitantly
"Okay, it seems that Gordon Town is about to become the territory of my clan, decades of back and forth battles, just for such a big town, it's boring to think about it~", after that, Raken began to lick his feathers, after all, after the night comes, it will take a long time to fly~, now you must recuperate, and as for the three fools waiting for you in the tree hole, they were asked to come to the bottom of the cliff to standby, it seems that they can only resign themselves to fate, and bringing grandpa back is the most important thing
Waiting quietly, just waiting quietly, both birdmen are thinking about themselves, waiting, is the most common behavior of the Night Beast, so it will not be boring at all, but it is also easy to ignore some things that are changing
Gordon Town, the moment the fire was extinguished, suddenly the whole thing was dark, and the dark clouds in the sky gradually converged, blocking the sunlight, as if in an instant, the night came....

The shadow gecko hidden in the tree hole has slept enough, pinch his fingers, and now it should be sunny and bright, right, but why is it all suddenly dark all around? Hurriedly woke up the half-spider brother who was also sleeping, these two nerds are still salivaing, and their sleeping appearance is really disgusting~
"Hey, I said, why is it getting dark?", said the Shadow Gecko~
"Huh??", the half-spider brother was completely unaware of all these changes, "Brother, why don't we go and have a look?"
"Okay, let's go and see if it's a little darker, maybe we can get some cheap, hehe", hissing laughter came from my brother's mouth

On the flame bell tower of the royal city, the fourth flame, the blue flame, has been ignited today for more than a thousand years~
The five major families in the entire royal city are all in a mess, because the bell rings regularly, this is the voice of the summoning family, and it is also the legendary death knell~
The old king, who was sitting on the throne, looked at everything indifferently......
