"Is it a delusion?"

The experienced River Valley level mage frowned.

He glanced at the nearby terrain and then at the aristocratic youths who were engaged in heated discussions and exchanges, and then made his judgment with the utmost caution.

"Everyone get out of place and follow me!"

He shouted in response to his faintly accelerating heartbeat, and at the same time, he tore a page from the magic book he was carrying, and quickly injected his magic power into it, so that a bright, blinding bright red light immediately flew towards the sky, creating a series of crunch sounds, after which the red light turned into a ball and suspended in the air......

This is a general public warning signal, in the military, it is generally used to mark dangerous areas, and is used to warn surrounding personnel and latecomers to avoid and dodge.

However, this is an important camp that has just been built.

There was even a special secret instrument set up in the camp, which was an important means of monitoring the city and its surroundings, so the personnel who saw the bright red light did not react immediately until they heard the mage's roar.

"Stay away from the building! Get away from the cliffs!"

The young nobles who came here for a visit were the most obedient of all, and before they set out, they had already received instructions from the elders of the family officers - they must obey the orders of the commander and the leader at all times, and especially trust the judgment of the mages at critical moments.

Therefore, they directly left what they were in their hands as soon as they heard the order, and quickly evacuated along the way they came, and the whole process was orderly, neither left behind, nor other accidents due to panic.

The birds in the woods near the cliff left their nests as if frightened.

The highland rock sheep resting on the nearby boulders let out a frightened scream, and they scurried to their feet on the rock face, trying to make their way to a safer place.

Hill snakes lurked in the crevices of the rocks, and they gathered together and cruined along the wide road into the distance, seemingly oblivious to the rolling wheels that were close at hand.

As the camp manager and leader, the river valley level mage has been sweating like rain.

He didn't quite understand why he had such a terrible reaction, but his instincts told him that all the people in the camp had to evacuate as quickly as possible, and even if they couldn't get out of the cliff, they had to stay as far away as possible from the surrounding mountains and boulders, preferably in the flat woodland behind the cliff!

In this case, even the work logs that must be taken with them in principle are extremely glaring.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

The mage urged and used the mage's hand to help the two military clerks carry the heavy files and thick magical records to a transport cart, and then he himself got into a cart and began to evacuate quickly along the road......

However, it had not been long before the extremely terrifying premonition in the mage's heart rose to its peak.

Almost instinctively, he applied several rituals of varying effectiveness to the vehicle he was riding, and before he could figure out what his reason was, the violent shaking began.

….

At first, it was just the sand and dirt on the road that kept jumping, but soon, bigger rocks were also involved in this strange carnival, the trees began to shake, the shrubs were dancing, and the clear lake at the end of the road was clearly rippling, and the magical creatures that lived in the lake, the most sensitive to environmental changes, had become almost insane, and these magical fish kept jumping out of the water as if they were crazy, even jumping towards the shore......

The earth is shaking up and down.

The vehicle could barely move forward, but the members who had evacuated on foot were unable to steady their footsteps, and they even fell to the ground in the violent shaking, unable to get up for half a day.

Pitch-black cracks began to appear on the ground, and they were like well-nourished plant roots, moving on the ground at an alarming rate.

It spreads among the rocks, and the kind of sound it makes in the process is terrifying.

At such a moment, it is difficult for those noble recruits who have just joined the army, or those experienced and experienced veterans with a cool head, to maintain absolute calm.

And the only one who could still command normally was the valley-level mage who had applied several magic rituals to him in time to forcibly calm himself down.

He showed the qualities of a soldier and a good spellcaster in this moment.

The protective ritual used to protect these young noble members began to receive a large amount of mana, which made the ritual itself directly enter a state of near-overload, but its effect was also obvious - the protective ritual that could only cover dozens of people was completely propped up, and all members of the evacuation team were protected, which allowed them to continue to move forward and be somewhat protected from the damage caused by the collapse of rocks and trees.

This terrible tremor lasted for a few moments before it slowly subsided, but the River Valley Mage, who was the commander, did not relax, his face became more serious, and he ordered the team to continue to avoid danger while releasing a new magic signal into the sky.

This time, the bright red magic balls that shot into the sky turned into three, their colors were extremely conspicuous, and the altitude of their flight was even more amazing, and the warning meaning contained in them was self-evident.

Almost at the same time, the young nobles saw more red magic alarms drift into the sky, and eventually in the sky until the end of sight.

Someone turned around, only to see that in the far and far sky, there were also large and small magical alarms.

Unlike the bright red balls used by the Kingdom of Waterl, the magical warning glows used by the Kingdom of Deran are purple, and they are also very conspicuous when they are floating high in the air.

"Don't stop! Keep moving forward and get ready for the second round of ......"

The mage shouted loudly, but before his voice could fall, the second round of shaking had already begun.

This time, instead of shaking up and down as before, the earth began to shake violently from side to side.

At this moment, the whole world seemed to be a flower pot in the hands of a naughty boy, and when he jumped up and down with joy, the soil and plants in the pot shook violently.

….

In the distance, among the countless floating magic balls of light, those observation balloons with the logo of the Plateau Giant Eagle looked particularly lonely.

Those were all observation balloons of the Fourth Artillery Regiment.

However, the observers and recorders who flew them were now in a state of stupor.

They had just taken off routinely according to the rules of the artillery regiment, but not long after the balloon was raised, a large number of red magic sirens covered the surrounding sky, and even the camp below them was in a panic.

At such times, there are no balloons that can be lifted into the air, and the members in the pod can only see their comrades moving away from the buildings and barracks at a very fast speed, and some conscientious artillerymen are enduring the shaking while trying to fix the cannons and shells in the artillery regiment's station, these things cannot withstand shaking and collision, and in the event of an accident, the consequences are unimaginable.

"Look over there, look over there!"

In one of the pods, a recorder slapped his companion on the shoulder, snorting into the distance.

The huge crystalline telescope mounted on the gondola immediately began to turn, and it was aimed at the southeast, where the Overlook Cliff camp was located, but when the observer looked at the eyepieces, he was shocked to find that the secret ritual camp that had been erected on the Overlook Cliff was now gone.

In other words, the entire protrusion of the overlook cliff has now disappeared.

The huge cliff that contained a lot of magic and had witnessed many years of human life was now like something had been bitten hard, and in the field of vision of the telescope, the important cliff was collapsing and cracking at an alarming rate, and a large number of rocks and dirt were along

The huge cracks smashed downward, and the hard earth seemed to become a soft carpet at this moment, and began to tremble and tremble with the footsteps of the invisible giant.

At this moment, the observer forgot his faith, and instead of exclaiming to the eagle of Wattle or praying to his gods, he muttered, like a dazed child, "Mother......"

In his exclamation, which was full of mixed emotions, the magic alarm set up in the observation balloon pod suddenly began to flicker, which meant that an extremely violent magic disturbance was taking place nearby.

Under normal circumstances, the members of the observation balloon would have immediately begun to descend in such a situation, but when the two of them hurriedly began to operate, they found that all the pre-set magic rituals and crystallization instruments in the pod were now in a state of paralysis.

For a moment, only the magic warning in the pod was still flashing a red light that symbolized danger and humming in bursts, and when they tried to signal the other observation balloons nearby, they found that all the balloons in the vicinity were in the same predicament - they were out of control.

"Detachment...... Get out of here!"

The observer was experienced, and he pushed his companion away and retrieved a spare parachute from the bottom of the pod, a device infused with slow-fall magic and protective rituals that would help them return safely to the surface.

….

However, their reaction was slower after all.

Just as the two of them were about to push open the pod door and jump out, a storm of magical power had already swept over from the distance, and the exaggerated magic turbulence destroyed all the magic rituals and equipment operating inside the observation balloon in the first place, and then these observation balloons and their own members were immediately swept into the chaotic air flow.

In the final moments, the poor observer was thrown out of the pod alive by the violent shock, his body stretched in the air, his limbs shaking helplessly.

In his panic, he successfully opened the parachute he was carrying, but in the next moment, the slow-falling magic ritual attached to it was also destroyed and annihilated on the spot in the magic turbulence, and the violent air flow was like a huge hand, throwing him wantonly into the distance.

Time seemed to slow down in the last moment of consciousness.

In the midst of uncontrolled spinning and churning, the observer saw that all the balloons had turned into bright flames.

Then he saw that the hills, the woods, the lakes, and the rivers were trembling.

It's the earth dancing.

……

It is not only the already tense line of confrontation that has been affected by this horrific earthquake.

In fact, it was a terrible disaster that affected the Lowe Plateau and the Plains of the Goddesses.

Even the city of Borden, far away in the center of the Lowe Plateau, was inevitably affected, and although there was no large-scale building collapse in the city, there were still many accidents when the impact occurred due to ground shaking and panic among the people.

Drivers were so nervous and frightened that vehicles rushed into shops, many factories were left in a panic, and important experiments in the Academy of Magic failed due to the sudden impact.

The most serious damage came from the alchemy workshops in the eastern part of the city.

A fire broke out in a large warehouse full of alchemical materials and products, including some magical materials that could be used to make high-spirited alchemical bombs, and their violent combustion caused a series of explosions, which destroyed the entire warehouse, and the metal train that was parked nearby to transport some of the materials was also affected, and two of the carriages went off the track, causing many casualties.

The Fifth Chasseur Regiment stationed near the city of Bolden and the Ymir Legion, which was directly subordinate to the royal family, took over a large part of the city's affairs at this important time, however, to the confusion of ordinary people, the Ymir Regiment was mainly active in the aristocratic district of Leyland.

They purposefully entered the estates of some of the most prestigious families in the Kingdom of Water

It was said that during this day, the sound of various firearms and weapons could be heard from time to time in the Leyland district, but not many people knew exactly what happened.

In the completely closed Ernst Manor, Zeke Ernst, who had already been protected by the Chasseur and had completed the screening and cleaning of the entire manor's personnel and forces, came to the Manor Hotel in front of the Manor Hotel, which he was very familiar with, in a wheelchair.

In his hand he held a detailed report compiled by the royal agents, which was densely packed with many important events that had occurred today, and information about the earthquake took up most of the pages.

The old man read the contents in silence, and then he looked up and looked suspiciously at the manor hotel, which was still under martial law.

The keen intuition in his body told him that today's series of events may have some subtle connection with what happened under the manor.
