Chapter 409: Existence is Reasonable
Ten steamboats sailed upstream, on the wide expanse of the lower Nibel River. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The farther upstream, the air became colder, and a bitter cold wind blew across the water, gathering fine crumbling ice crystals.
Renault sat on the bow of the boat, with a thick parchment roll beside him, and calculated the date and temperature on a blank piece of paper, and found that this year was colder than the same time last year, and winter had come earlier.
Such abnormal climate change worries him.
There have been two such anomalies in history, the length of the cold winter was even more than half a year, the ice and snow covered the earth, and the short appearance could not melt them, and in those two climate changes, humanity was almost wiped out.
People are afraid of the cold winter as much as they are afraid of the night.
"Hank, have you noticed that these two climate changes are the most prosperous stages in human history. ”
"Yes, my lord, I was very curious," said Hank, "and I used to think boldly that there was any force that did not want humanity to flourish too much, so that nature would punish us." But just think about it, nothing is so powerful. ”
If there is, then only the Demon God can do it.
Hank didn't say this because it was disrespectful to the Demon God. Although he seemed to be about to forget the greatness of the Demon God after following Renault for so long, he was still afraid of being punished for it.
"Nothing is impossible, as long as it exists, it is reasonable. ”
Renault said, and at the same time, he was also thinking that if these two climate changes were really related to the Demon God Race, then he would have to re-look at the existence of the power of the Demon Spirit.
He felt that he was close to the truth, but there was still a layer of fog that he could not see.
Suddenly, a strong sense of crisis came to his heart, making his hairs stand on end.
Suddenly, inexplicably, a fierce cold wind blew on the surface of the river, setting off waves more than one meter high, and when these waves reached the highest point, they suddenly condensed into hard ice.
Boom -
The steamers didn't have time to stop and crashed into it.
Fortunately, the speed of the countercurrent is not very fast, otherwise even a ship made of steel would have crashed.
But even so, in the strong impact, three of the steamships had their heads seriously deflated, and even the keels had been deformed to a certain extent.
"There's a crack, fix it quickly! The others immediately fall into combat positions!"
Lauren flew into the sky, which was clearly a deliberate disruption that made him very angry. The steamships of Black Iron have never suffered such losses across the Nibel River.
But on the vast surface of the river, apart from a white ice belt hundreds of meters wide, where is the shadow of half an enemy?
"No need to look for it, they've already run away. ”
The power of the demon spirit was fleeting, and the speed and number of people were so fast that Renault could not pursue them.
And he fled at the touch of a button, and he had no intention of fighting head-on at all.
"How far is it from Wolf Castle?"
"If you drive at full strength, you still have half a day. ”
A bad feeling came over me.
The number of people who came to attack just now was at least thirty or more, otherwise the entire river would not be able to freeze. Being able to mobilize so many awakened people of the same kind of demon spirit at the same time, there is only the royal family in the entire Oro Continent.
Demon Spirit Ice Pole, Demon Spirit Ice and Snow Dance, this is the power of the demon spirit unique to the royal family, just like the flames of the Franklin family.
But why did the royal family attack at this time, if they wanted to deal with Renault, they would have too many opportunities when they were in the royal capital. There are too many opportunities on the way after leaving the royal capital, and he definitely won't do it when he is about to enter the territory.
Renault couldn't figure it out, but he decided not to think about it.
Since someone has bullied him, then hit it back.
"All the Black Iron Troops are armed at once, and we are walking to Little Wolf Castle. The others docked the boat to the south shore and sent someone to inform Xavier that he should bring the convoy over to the shore to protect him. ”
The walking birds stepped over the ice of the river and went directly to the north bank, where they braved the cold wind and ran towards the little wolf castle. The walking bird was faster than a steamship against the current, and in less than three hours, the little wolf castle was in sight.
"My lord, it looks like something is wrong!"
Lauren hurriedly fell, and black smoke filled in the direction of Little Wolf Castle, as if the whole city was burning.
The attack on Castle Little Wolf was done by either Yale or the Temple.
Renaud gritted his teeth and silently urged the walker to speed up, the anger in his heart already burning fiercely.
On the streets of Little Wolf Castle, countless residents and merchants panicked, and the entire Little Wolf Castle was already in chaos.
All the houses were burning, and the air was filled with choking smoke and a pungent stench of burning.
No one knew what was going on, but in the morning, Wolf Castle was still so calm, and the sky was so peaceful and beautiful with snowflakes falling.
Just as people were immersed in this peaceful atmosphere and began their day, a fire suddenly broke out in the house. People rushed out into the street and found that not only their own homes, but also their neighbors' houses, and their neighbors' neighbors' houses, and the whole street, and even the whole Little Wolf Castle, were burning at the same moment.
Food, goods, clothing...... Everything was engulfed in flames, turning into billowing smoke and surging into the sky.
The guards stationed in Little Wolf Castle and a hundred Black Iron Army soldiers woke up from the barracks outside the city, and they immediately gathered outside the lord's mansion to protect the adults inside from interference.
Fortunately, the Lord's Mansion did not catch fire, and Simon and the five members of the Council were unharmed.
But the Wolf Castle was suddenly caught in flames, which made them even more uncomfortable and painful than hanging them on the fire to roast them.
"What the hell is going on?"
Simon and the five old men of the management committee, as natives of Little Wolf Castle, they have long been red-eyed. The guards who went out to investigate could not find out the reason, and could only judge that someone had deliberately sabotage.
Simon consulted with the captain of the Black Iron Army for a while and decided not to continue the reconnaissance. The enemy was able to set a city on fire at the same time in an instant, and their strength was certainly incomparable, so they decided to leave the lord's palace immediately with the adults of the council and take refuge in the barracks outside the city first.
"You can't go. ”
As soon as they arrived at the gate of the Lord's Palace, a team of blue-clothed priests suddenly appeared on the street, blocking their way.
"Temple!"
The management committee gasped at the same time, they never thought that the person who came to kill people and set fire to it turned out to be the blue-clothed priest of the temple!
"You're finally willing to come out. Simon sneered and waved his hand, and hundreds of rifles opened the safety at the same time, "I hope you are ready to die, and I also hope that your demon god can come to bless you." ”
Boom -
There was a violent explosion in the street, dozens of mortars fell at the same time, and the blue-clad priests were shocked to find that they had actually fallen into a trap.
Countless blue stone powder spread in the air, making it impossible for them to use any demonic power, and the blue armor couldn't stop the impact of the explosion and the high temperature, and a dozen people were blown into pieces almost instantly.
"Hurry up!"
Simon immediately took the lead and rushed towards the Lord's Mansion, opening the door of the hidden secret passage and entering it.
Before leaving, he looked at the exquisite lord's mansion with pity, and felt reluctant, but it was a pity that such a good mansion was about to fall victim to the war and become a pile of ruins.
Boom, boom, boom
After all the evacuations, the Lord's Mansion suddenly exploded even more violently, and then crashed to the ground, burying the entrance to the secret passage deep under the rubble, completing its final mission. (To be continued.) )
