Chapter 63: Air Raids
That's not a piece of iron!
Crane watched as bombs fell from the sky and bombarded the newly built houses in Beckland, and for a while screams rang out, accompanied by explosions on the streets of Beckland.
This is indiscriminate bombing, indiscriminate air raids!
Why are air raids happening now? No, it should happen right now!
Klein quickly figured out what the god of war wanted to do. There is no doubt that it is the airship from Fursack that is flying in the sky now.
And on the eve of George III's godhood, the god of war made the final decision and brazenly launched a war.
This is also a normal choice, after all, if you wait until George III becomes a god, then the god of war will definitely be besieged by the Lord of the Storm, the True Creator and the Goddess of the Night, who are closer to the Rune Empire, plus a George III.
At that time, the god of war thought that he could not defeat the goddess of the night, after all, even if there was an old grudge between the true creator and the lord of the storm, they were still on the same side for the time being.
Not to mention, the relationship between the creator and the goddess of the night at this time is closer, and if George III, whom they support, becomes a god, then the god of war and the mother earth goddess will be besieged by the four gods when they attack the goddess of the night.
The last god who could be besieged by so many gods at the same time was still Solomon at that time, and the "Black Emperor" with the ability to resurrect undoubtedly fell in that war, and in the end even the opportunity to resurrect was completely deprived.
It wasn't until Russell Gustav became the new "Black Emperor" that Solomon never had a chance to be resurrected.
The abilities of the "Ancient Scholars" are not very effective in blocking inanimate things...... Crane could only watch as a huge fireball fell from the sky.
What's the least thing to do...... No, there are other things I could do to help the inhabitants of Beckland deal with the air raids and reduce the impact of some of these bomb explosions. If I am an extraordinary person in the "door" pathway, then I don't have to worry about this situation.
Klein gritted his teeth and pulled his hand out of the projection of history. As he did this, he thought about what he should do later, and his thoughts gradually became clearer.
- Green flames burned on his body.
……
I'm Edward Milne, an ordinary builder.
Beckland hasn't been so peaceful lately, and strictly speaking, the atmosphere in Beckland has been completely different from before when Beckland suffered an unprecedented explosion.
But I was able to go from an ordinary person to a businessman with a lot of wealth in my hands, and I keenly smelled the business opportunities in Beckland.
I joined the local Aurora Company to provide materials for the Aurora Company, and sure enough, I made a lot of money during the period when Beckland was to be rebuilt on the orders of the Emperor. I believe in the Creator and also donate a portion of my income to the church.
Although I don't give much compared to the big nobles, it's a fair portion of my income. This gives me more peace of mind when it comes to making money. I kept it in the habit of donating to tell myself that I wasn't always lying on the same civilians as me and sucking the blood, and that I was making a small contribution to them.
I managed to set up my own chamber of commerce, have a family here, and have a beautiful wife. Unfortunately, he and I don't have children yet.
I watched a bomb fall from the sky, and I felt hopeless than I had ever felt before.
If you were to punish me, O gods, why not let me fall into the abyss of death when I failed to see the future, so that I would have no regrets.
Why give me everything, but take everything away from me without mercy?
Edward looked at the bomb and tried to escape, but couldn't.
The next moment, a tall, somewhat silent figure stood in front of him. Edward watched as the figure in front of him pushed his hands forward, the viscous air enveloping the bomb falling from the sky like amber, and he reached out to grab the bomb and threw it away like an egg.
"Let's go."
The man simply said to Edward and hurried away. Edward protected his wife with his hand, and even he didn't notice that a green glint flashed in his eyes.
- It's Ronzel Edward, he's back to the Rune Empire, he's back to Beckland?
Edward's secret puppet looked a little in a trance, he protected his wife and quickly fled towards the shelter, but his heart was suddenly abrupt.
It turns out that I am Klein Moretti - I am a secret couple.
He pressed his wife's hand and said to her sincerely:
"I'm going to evacuate the workers who work under me."
But he saw that his wife's eyes were also green, and the same green flames were burning in those green eyes, and the two looked at each other and smiled, and the power of the "Lost Country" on their bodies slowly disappeared after blocking some bombs.
The same scene is happening in one place after another.
Crane sent out hundreds of spirit worms to control the secret puppet, while wielding the power of the "Lost Country" on his body and the "wriggling hunger" in his hands.
One by one, the doors of the "Traveler" opened, dropping the bombs into the distance. The bombs exploded one after another in the suburbs, not causing much damage, just blowing up a lot of uninhabited buildings. Under the protection of Klein, the city has miraculously remained intact.
He moved his fingers, and the spirit lines of the soldiers driving the airships were controlled by him, and he flew away with these airships into the distance - since he couldn't solve these bombs, then deal with the people who controlled these airships.
Although among the three secret pathways, in addition to the "Gate" path, the other two paths have a poor ability to affect inanimate objects during the period of sequence three, if a former "secret puppet master" is asked to target creatures, then he is an expert.
The control of the spirit thread spreads like a plague among the airships in the sky. Saving lives by killing lives, Klein chose this method anyway to stop the war. For these soldiers, since they had chosen to raise the butcher's knife for their gods, Crane had a reason to stop them.
He did not want to see innocent civilians die in front of him.
After all, I still can't treat everyone else the same way as a god...... I prefer innocent civilians to those who invade them...... The corners of Klein's mouth hooked, and he laughed self-deprecatingly.
It's a bit despicable, but I need to make them my anchor, and I have to move up the ranks faster to become a "Brigade Mage......
Although there is no need to look for a hometown, Klein still chooses not to be promoted from the faster "miracle master". Because it is very likely that Tianzun has buried more holes for him in the "Fool" path, which will make Klein more likely to be eroded by Tianzun's will when he is promoted to "Miracle Master".
And after turning to the "Gate" path, Crane can also use the astral plane to transfer some people to other planets suitable for human survival.
In this way, even if the outer gods are ready to deal a devastating blow to their anchor, they can still have this part of the anchor remaining, and Klein also needs to guard against a high-dimensional overlook on the earth, which is the most basic vigilance.
"The Loved One of the Nights and the Cross."
"Scholars of ancient origin."
"Protector of all workers and civilians in Beckland."
"The Great Sherlock Moriarty."
Klein smiled, the name hadn't worked yet, but it didn't matter.
There are many secret puppets like Edward Milne who have been given their identities with the help of Aurora Company, and there are dozens of secret puppets such as Klein, who has the identity of a small businessman.
They are now present at the gathering points of the civilians, directing the workers and civilians of Beckland to the shelters one by one.
This will protect at least some of the people...... And in this way, although the people I protect are not aware of this identity, they will thank my secret couple, and in the case of thanking my secret couple, they can also act as a weak anchor.
Originally, I arranged this identity for them to let them know this identity subtly, but now it can only be like this.
But this is not enough, this is not enough.
Klein's expression remained unchanged, and the "devil" secret puppet of Sequence 4 that he had collected before appeared next to him. His appearance quickly changed to that of Gelman Sparrow.
"Go ahead."
Klein whispered to himself:
"Go and proclaim the name of my lord."
After nodding his head at Gelman Sparrow, Klein turned around again and disappeared into place. He knew that there must be someone behind this war, he couldn't just be outside, he needed to hide his identity, and wait until the end to try to solve the incident planned by the planners behind it.
Now the situation in Beckland is too complicated, the goddess of the night and the god of war, the primordial witch, Amon and Adam, the high-dimensional overlooker, George III who wants to become the emperor and the true creator of the new entry into the empire, the gods of the earth and the mother tree of desire.
This also excludes the gods of other countries, otherwise the overall situation would have been even more chaotic.
Crane waited quietly, controlling the secret puppets to save the civilians one by one, while looking for the focus of this war.
……
"What is this?"
Feeling the unparalleled vibration, Audrey Hall felt a little flustered for a while, but the panic was only a short-lived thing, and soon Audrey regained her composure.
But Audrey's ability to calm down does not mean that other nobles also have such excellent psychological qualities, listening to the constant roar outside, many nobles feel that it is the end of the world.
Beckland, the "City of Hope", the safest city, was actually attacked?
This thought flashed through the minds of Audrey and the other nobles at the same time, and the next was just a subconscious thought in Audrey's mind.
Mr. "Fool", what should I do?
Audrey thought with some apprehension, turned sideways away from the somewhat flustered crowd, and squeezed to her parents' side.
The nobles who had gathered in the center of the banquet just now felt a tremendous force pushing them away, but when they looked back, they could no longer find out who the person who pushed them away—no one thought it was Audrey, the beautiful young lady.
Boom –
A bomb happened to fall on the roof and exploded on the nobleman's banquet hall, and suddenly shattered bricks and glass shattered and fell from the dome like a work of art.
These fragments fell into the crowd in an instant, and although a few extraordinary people subconsciously protected the nobles they needed to protect, many more people did not have such luck.
For a moment, blood and residue were mixed together. Amid the screams of the nobles, the oil lamps fell to the ground and set fire to the precious carpets.
Flames snaked their way up the dry wood, and flames soon burned outward in many places, turning large swaths of wooden structures into a sea of fire.
Crackling, crackling. With the sound of the flames burning, the supporting wood snapped under the pressure of the boulder, and the stone slammed in the direction of Count Hall.
Seeing this, Audrey's pupils contracted, but the night watchman behind her moved quickly, and she pressed the beam with one hand and lifted it up. There was a surging spirit in his hands, and his power quickly became extremely powerful.
The "Spirit Witch" of the "Night" path has the ability to drive spirits, and sometimes it can use the abilities of other extraordinary paths!
But at this moment, Audrey's intuition subconsciously warned, she turned her head to look, and found an extremely beautiful woman with a smile on her face standing behind her, looking charming.
She was wearing a black court dress, and her dark gray eyes looked unusually bright, showing the unusually soft contours of her charming face, which exuded a surprising charm while making people pity.
Without saying a word, the unusually charming woman reached out and pressed her hand to Count Hall's chest, but at the same time, a long sword emerged from the hand of the night watchman, blocking the attack of the woman in the black dress.
However, when this long sword came into contact with the attack of the woman in the black dress, cracks appeared, causing the pupils of the demigod Crestai Cessima, who held his Sequence Four, to shrink slightly.
After Audrey reminded the Night Church, it was Count Hall who protected him, the Sage who had just been promoted to Sequence 4!
And for Crestel, the witch in front of him is obviously not only Sequence 4, but may even be a powerful Extraordinary Person in Sequence 3!
He stared at the witch in front of him tightly, his expression equally tense.
He had already matched the witch in front of him with the powerful sage in the witch sect in his mind. What appeared in front of me was Claris, the "Black Witch".
But shouldn't she be the head of the Witch Sect in Trier? Why is she here?
Thinking of the sudden air raid on Beckland by the Vorsack Empire, Cesima thought of a terrifying possibility.
Could it be that the Witch Cult and the God of War Church have cooperated?
Suddenly, his heart sank, if this was the case, then this attack was premeditated, and it was probably not only these two gods who were cooperating behind their backs!
While Cesima and Clarice were confronting each other, an even more violent explosion could be heard in the distance.
The war began.
