Chapter 15: The Great Chaos
The fifth-level wizard of the Tower of Babel, who came at the request of the Golden Council, harnessed the huge cyclops, and the moment he stepped out of the barrier, he turned into a streamer of light and shot straight at the top of the golden garden.
With a fifth-level wizard in charge, the Golden Council quickly took action, and in less than two hours, it successfully found and cracked the plague magic circle that was not even a clumsy toy in the eyes of a fifth-level wizard.
What was supposed to be a terrorist attack that threatened the entire Earl government was declared bankrupt.
It seems that everything has been solved, and Earl's public speech on the Civic Reform Act has been successfully launched. But is it really that simple?
Earl stood on the first step of the Golden Garden. The makeshift podium was set up with a light and shadow circle that seemed to the fifth-level wizards to be just shoddy.
Earl's wife, Michelle, and the occult party candidate Pintos joined the Speaker on the left and right, followed by all the members. The steps down the road were filled with parliamentarians, members of the gold coins, and reporters from various newspapers. Thousands of Knights of Truth and DHS agents are stationed in every corner.
Outside the Harpy Gate, two rows of Unsullied Ones in black wallets form a human wall that separates the ordinary city names from the outside.
"Ladies and gentlemen......" Earl stood on the podium, his image and voice projected into the air.
The scene of a plague spell in the Sea of Stars
Jack looked around the already ruined grounds.
His brow furrowed, "No, they were discovered on purpose!" Jack said to himself with a solemn expression.
Golden Garden Podium
"We have always inherited this system! However, time has passed. Today, the Sea of Stars is thriving. The number of people who have settled here has already been more than 10,000 times that of the year. Therefore, our ancient citizenship system can no longer meet the needs of the vast number of residents of the Star Sea today! Therefore, we need to expand the number of citizenship rights, and we should look at the criteria for obtaining citizenship rights from a new perspective. ”
"Only by expanding the scope of citizenship can we expand our army based on citizenship; can more free people obtain political rights and political obligations equivalent to their own wealth despite the shackles of blood; only then can more people who are loyal to the sea of stars enjoy political respect that is consistent with their loyalty; the right to pay taxes, the right to vote, the right to equal litigation, and the right to compensation for wealth are the basic rights that all loyal and industrious people should enjoy and objectively exist, the rights of citizens!"
At this moment, the hundreds of millions of free people of the Star Sea outside the Golden Garden erupted in warm applause and shouts. They have been aspiring to citizenship for an unknown number of years.
Without the right to pay taxes, their property is not protected by the law, without the right to vote, their voice cannot be transmitted to the government, without equal right to litigate, they cannot hold their heads up before the law, and without the right to compensation for their wealth, their personal freedom will be deprived of their slavery at any time.
"As the Spartan councillor said back then, there is no guarantee that political obligations are equal to political rights, and society will fall into endless betrayal! I don't want the residents who live here, those familiar faces, to become the enemies of the Golden Council one day in the future! Therefore, this government has been working on the Citizen Reform Act!"
"I have a dream......" Earl was giving an impassioned speech. Suddenly, a huge explosion from the collision of witchcraft exploded in the air.
Seven or eight fourth-level wizards and the fifth-level wizards of the Tower of Babel suddenly confronted each other in the air. Bands of dangerous light of sorcery annihilation still twisted and twisted around them.
Dozens of Knights of Truth quickly evacuated Earl and other high-ranking officials as well as cabinet members amid the screams of the crowd.
The rest of the Knights of Truth rushed into the panicked crowd at the same time, began to separate, break up, and then cover the command to evacuate.
The councillors and members of the Golden Coin in the Golden Garden rushed to their heads, and the tens of millions of free people outside the Golden Garden immediately fell into a catastrophic panic, and depending on the situation, they would fall into a large-scale stampede at any time! The gathering of nearly 10 million people was like an ocean of human beings, boundless, and it was not a situation that could be controlled by thousands of Unsullied Ones. Farther away, the more numerous slaves seemed to be on the move.
At this moment, a faint blue halo rippled out under the feet of the fifth-level wizard in the sky, forming a huge portal. A cyan cyclops strode out of the blue halo portal. Endless dark clouds erupted from his mouth, quickly filling the sky. Rumbling thunder accompanied by electric snakes resounded through the sky.
The fifth-level wizard glanced coldly at the seven or eight wizards surrounding him, and then opened his mouth to highlight a huge voice that seemed to come from the clouds: "All the city names immediately kneel in place and wait for orders!"
The oracle-like voice of the gods immediately suppressed the panic that was about to turn into a catastrophe, and the souls of nearly 10 million freedmen and even more numerous slaves were instantly shocked, and they involuntarily knelt on the ground.
The Unsullied, however, were unaffected. After a moment's pause, one of the Unsullied finally came to his senses, raised his spear and began to disperse the crowd in a measured manner.
Another group of unknown wizards in the sky glanced at the situation below with expressionless faces, and did not try to create chaos anymore, and continued to fight against the fifth-level wizards.
For some reason, they seemed to be concerned and did not carry out a large-scale witchcraft covering.
"Containment?" muttered Agent Jack, looking at the wizards in the sky. Suddenly, he suddenly understood, and immediately turned around and rushed towards the leader of the field support team who was not far from him, shouting loudly: "The plague attack and the current attack are all illusions, and their target is the Homeland Security Agency!"
The leader of the field team, who was in shock, seemed to be still in a state of distraction, looked at Jack and asked with some uncertainty, "What did you say?"
"Their real target was the Department of Homeland Security! Wooden Box, both attacks were fakes!" Jack ran up to him and roared loudly.
The leader of the field team frowned and stared at Jack for tens of seconds: "Oops!"
Suddenly, there was a rapid sound of breaking through the sky, and a huge burning meteorite fell from the sky and smashed into the DHS building next to the Silk Road.
The ten-story building collapsed with a bang. The falling meteorite tore the earth apart, revealing the basement of the Department of Homeland Security.
A large number of cracks were scattered on the meteorite, and stones the size of a man fell.
Bahrain and the female journalist at the Golden Garden home were not affected by the chaos until a meteorite fell in the direction of the Department of Homeland Security, and Bahrain suddenly thought of something.
Turning around and grabbing the arms of the female reporter who was still in shock: "Varenjina!" the wizard called out her name, shaking the female reporter's body.
The woman finally came back to her senses from the shock: "What?"
"I know you want to get news from me, I can tell you everything I know. But now you're going to do me a favor!" Bahrain's tone was a little anxious.
"Good!" the female reporter nodded
"You go to the Thanksgiving Chamber of Commerce right now, and find a way to tell Raymond that he will organize someone to come to the DHS direction to meet me immediately, and I'll bring something with me!"
"Got it!" the female reporter didn't ask much, nodding her head in understanding.
"Let's go!" Bahrain immediately took her hand and ran towards the golden garden.
The two weaved their way through the crowd outside the Golden Garden, before parting at an intersection.
By the time Bahrain arrived at the DHS building, which was reduced to a few buildings, there had been a makeshift on-site emergency response team.
"Who's in charge here now?" Bahrain asked out loud as he grabbed a medical wizard apprentice who was in charge of rescuing the wounded, the entire sea of stars was filled with crying and screaming, and the sound of the crowd shouting made the whole environment seem unusually noisy. If it weren't for the Cyclops, a fifth-level wizard's soul-bound creature, I am afraid that it would have been caught in a catastrophic stampede.
At this time, it is even more evident that the Governing Body of the Sea of Stars is understaffed, and in this regard, Earl's citizen reform bill is indeed imperative.
"Joe, it's Joe in command now" The wizard apprentice gestured to a senior agent whose head was still bleeding.
Bahrain immediately rushed in the direction he pointed out to the temporary commander Joe, who was in a hurry: "Are you Joe?
Joe looked back, Bahrain he knew. Nodding, his mouth slightly open, his face covered with beads of sweat: "I'm Joe!
"We must move the wooden box immediately! It's clear that they're coming for the wooden box!" Bahrain said loudly.
"Where to move, now the whole city is in chaos!" Qiao also understood, but the problem was that the current Xingchen Sea law enforcement agency was seriously understaffed. Tens of millions of freedmen still need to be evacuated from the city, and even more slaves begin to clash with the Unsullied.
"The only place that has remained as a formed armed force is the Thanksgiving Chamber of Commerce! Transfer to the Thanksgiving Chamber of Commerce?" Bahrain took the opportunity to state his plan. Although this is not seamless, it can effectively remove his responsibility, and he is only responsible for transferring the wooden box to the Thanksgiving Chamber of Commerce. As for what Raymond would do with the wooden crate, it wasn't his problem. And he also completed the Raymond deal!
"Thanksgiving, they're closely related to the Man in Black!we can't trust him!" Joe, of course, wouldn't agree.
"Do you have a better way? Now that the official wizard has stepped in, the whole city is in chaos. No matter what Raymond's plan is, the wooden box is handed over to him, and no matter what happens in the end, we can still keep Raymond's clue. Otherwise, if we are taken away by those unknown wizards, we will completely lose the clue!" said Balin.
Joe pondered for dozens of seconds, still thinking that what Barin said made sense. Nodding in agreement, he began to direct the men to dig up the wooden boxes and arrange the transfer.
Soon wooden boxes were excavated from the rubble, and three identical military wagons drove in different directions.
Bahrain jumped into the carriage carrying the wooden box and said to Joe: "I will assist in the escort and transfer, and you will be fortunate here!"
Joe nodded, turned and continued to rush into emergency relief. When Balin turned back, he saw corpses being lifted from the rubble. I can't tell what it's like.
