Agatha did not hide anything. In front of this kind being who had already rescued Hanshuang from the edge of destruction, she revealed all the information she had so far.
Part of the information was what she observed and summarized during Operation Mirror Frost, and the other part of the information was obtained from various priests and her trusted subordinates after returning to the cathedral. It was what happened while she was trapped in the mirror city.
It was something the "other her" had experienced.
There are huge secrets buried in the boiling gold mines that Frost relies on for survival. The so-called boiling gold ore has been exhausted as early as the time of the Frost Queen. The consuls of the past generations may have mastered great secrets. Consul Winston and "another Ah "Gatha" disappeared into the depths of the mine together, and before they disappeared, the "other Agatha" seemed to have discovered some amazing truth, and its strong will fluctuations even reached the real Agatha...
Duncan listened silently, only occasionally confirming some details. It was not until Agatha finished talking about so many things that he sighed softly.
"You have told me the biggest secret of Hanshuang - now you are not worried that I am a malicious being?"
"After seeing the methods you used to destroy the mirror city, I think there is no point in speculating on your intentions," Agatha said calmly, "If you really have ill intentions towards this city, then all of us will They will all die before the sun sets."
"...Are you city-state protectors so ingenious when you praise others?" Duncan muttered and glanced at Vanna next to him calmly.
Fanna immediately turned her eyes away and pretended not to hear.
Morris, who was sitting across the table, couldn't help but lean forward - after learning the shocking fact that the Boiling Gold Mine had long been exhausted, the old scholar's curiosity had obviously expanded dramatically: "Then now the Boiling Gold Mine How is the situation in the mountains? Can you still find raw ore? What you have been digging out for these years...is it really boiling gold?"
"The mine is still blocked now. After the mirror invasion subsided, there were loud noises and vibrations in the mine. For safety reasons and lack of manpower, we have not confirmed the situation inside," Agatha told frankly, "But according to the reports from the mine transportation station and the smelting plant... at least the boiling gold that was transported out of the mine is still intact."
"The City of Mirror Image has been destroyed...but the boiling gold, which is theoretically an 'abnormal product', has not disappeared? This is interesting..." Morris subconsciously rubbed his chin, "You know, those fake monsters in the city are in the mirror image After the city collapsed, it immediately turned into piles of mud... So the boiling gold is real? What is the principle? Can the power of Holy Lord Yousui create real boiling gold? "
"Now is not the time to engage in academic research," Fanna couldn't help but muttered, and then turned to look at Agatha, "Then when do you plan to confirm the situation in the mine?"
Agatha hesitated and spoke uncertainly: "I think... at least until the order in the city is initially stabilized and the vibrations and loud noises in the mines have stopped, and... at least we have to survive the first day after the disaster safely. One night.”
As she spoke, she raised her head and subconsciously glanced out the window.
The snow was still falling, and it was still daytime at this moment, but the sun behind the clouds was gradually sinking, and the hazy light group was about to touch the spire of the church steeple in the distance.
"In two hours, the sun will set. That will be the first test we will face after the disaster..."
"Sorry, let me interrupt," Vanna suddenly raised her hand, interrupting Agatha's slightly worried sigh, "I think... you don't actually need to worry about the problem of nightfall. Compared with what you are facing, With all the troubles, 'night' may become the last thing this city-state needs to worry about from now on."
Agatha was stunned for a moment: "Why do you say that?"
"...Talk from experience," Vanna said, and then looked back at Duncan slightly. After seeing the latter nodded slightly to her, she turned to Agatha and continued, "Plande's experience. "
"Pulan..." Agatha was a little confused for a moment, but the next second, she suddenly remembered the information she had received before, and the news that came from afar - the large-scale anomaly that Pland encountered, the black sun The coming crisis, history restored in flames, and...
A "rumor" spread from various channels in Puland.
The chilling ghost captain, the moving scourge of the endless seas, the terrifying shadow of the warp, Duncan Abnormar - has found his humanity.
The expression on the young gatekeeper and temporary acting archbishop's face was wonderful for a moment, and he stood up with the creak of his chair.
All the suspicious clues were suddenly explained, all the uneasy speculations were suddenly confirmed, and the loose and messy intelligence was connected in series.
"I admit, the current situation is a bit embarrassing." Duncan shrugged, his tone a little helpless.
Agatha remained standing stiffly, looking at Duncan motionless - no one could see her "eyes" at the moment, but the gatekeeper's expression was obviously more than just embarrassment.
After a long time, she finally broke the silence: "No wonder... your followers call you 'Captain'... I should have thought of it, there is no other 'Captain' on the boundless sea who would be as special as you..."
"I'm sorry about the Thirteen Islands of Wesselan," Duncan said. "I have no memory of this at all, but the evidence seems to be conclusive."
He tried to make his tone sound cordial and reliable when speaking, but in view of his illustrious "prestige" and the methods he had just displayed in front of the Frost City State a few hours ago, the gentleness of his tone obviously had limited effect - —Visible to the naked eye, the tension in Agatha's body has not eased since just now.
After a long time, this stiff and awkward state was broken by Agatha herself: "I...well, I will tell you frankly. Since the day we were promoted to saints, the church has constantly emphasized to us that once it is discovered, The clues about Captain Duncan, Shadow of Subspace, must be reported immediately to the Supreme Death Temple - the priority is higher than all natural disasters, and is on the same level as subspace invasion. I don’t know if you can understand what this concept is."
"Oh, I understand," Duncan didn't say anything, but Fanna on the side said proactively, and communicated with the colleagues in front of him carelessly, "We actually have reminders about this every year, and even have a special disaster prevention plan. , although it was not used later.”
Duncan glanced at Vanna with a strange expression: "Are you saying this in front of me?"
Only then did Fanna react suddenly, and her face straightened: "Ah, I'm sorry, Captain..."
Agatha was a little late-minded, maybe because Duncan gave her too much impact. At this time, she suddenly focused on the amazingly tall lady in front of her: "Wait, so you are... …”
"Inquisitor of Puland City State... In a sense, we are peers," Vanna said with a somewhat embarrassed expression, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hide it."
A succession of information bombarded her mind, and Agatha felt herself in a trance. Only then did she realize that the end of a disaster was just the beginning - and the complex situation after the disaster ended from an angle she had never imagined. Rushing towards her.
She hesitantly sat back on the chair, and then looked at Vanna with an incomprehensible expression: "But why are you with Captain Duncan? You should be one of the top spokespersons of the Deep Sea Church in Pland... …Doesn’t Purander need a judge?”
"This is exactly the church's arrangement. I can't explain the specific situation at the moment. I can only say that... this matter cannot be disclosed to the public for the time being. If your identity is not in line with the conditions for knowing, I will not tell you," Fanna said with a serious expression. He said, then paused slightly, "As for Plande... Yes, just like you said, it doesn't need judges now, at least it doesn't need the previous system of judges and guards."
Agatha couldn't help but rub her forehead. Other information that had recently come from afar and had not yet had time to distinguish the authenticity emerged from her mind. She hesitated and said: "So... as mentioned in the information Like that, Purande really had a peaceful and peaceful night?"
Fanna looked a little surprised: "Has the news reached Hanshuang?"
"We are just remote, not isolated," Agatha said, and then she couldn't help but continue to ask, "Please tell me, is Plande really no longer afraid of the dark night?"
"...At least so far, Puland's nights are even safer than those of many city-states during the day. My uncle is even considering opening a night market to meet the recent changes in the city-state, but this matter still needs to be discussed and discussed carefully. Test," Fanna nodded, "Since you already know the information in this regard, you must have heard about another thing - after the incident of the arrival of the black sun, Plande also had A new identity.”
"Vision - Plande, the first unnumbered vision in history," Agatha said subconsciously, her eyes involuntarily falling on Duncan. Now, she finally understood the meaning of Vanna's words just now, "So... now Frost is going to do the same thing?"
Feeling the invisible but tangible "sight", Duncan just smiled and nodded: "Maybe."
