The Seven Seas Traveler sailed quietly among the clouds. Only the faint roar of the magic engine came from under the cabin. It was continuous and monotonous. Over time, it gave people the illusion of tinnitus.
Attila was placing a cake on a plate in front of Fang Plover, and looked quietly in this direction. The opening at the back of the captain's room was temporarily blocked with wooden boards, but there was still some air leakage. The wind poured in through the gaps and made the papers on the desk rattle.
After a while, she asked: "Ed, have you contacted Mr. Su Changfeng?"
Fang Yu shook his head slightly. There was no one answering for the time being. This was a rare thing. However, now that rare things came together, he had to wonder whether this was really a coincidence.
He was somewhat silent.
Judging from the pictures sent by Miss Tata, the crystal was almost exactly the same as the one they saw in the phantom underground of Snowstone Castle not long ago, and combined with the recording Luo Yu recorded from the monastery, There's almost definitely something wrong with Gula's 'enchantment'.
But what he is really worried about is that if the shadow of the Dark Saints is really behind the Crow Claw Temple, then the other party involved in this war - the descendants of Flor, and even the Super Competitive Alliance behind it, What is their relationship with the Crow's Claw Temple?
Although in his wildest thoughts, he did not dare to speculate on the fact that the Alliance might even be involved with the Dark Believers, because this was even more different from what happened in Istania - that was the original Residents, and these are the Chosen Ones.
He also couldn't imagine how the alliance officials had any congruence of interests with a group of cultists.
But if his guess comes true, does that mean that if the Dark Believers can even invade the Alliance, is the other side of Stargate Port really safe and reliable?
He couldn't help but subconsciously recall some of the words Su Changfeng said to him, but those words sounded very far away at first, but now they seemed to be a fact that was close at hand.
Of course this is all just a guess.
But Fang Yu suddenly realized that it was not as if he had not experienced the same precedent - the Dragon Fire Guild, the Rain Listeners and the Blood Oath, had he forgotten it? It seems not. The events in Fenris are still fresh in our minds. The senior leaders of the Rain Listeners and the missing people of the Blood Oath are still missing.
Those people were also the same chosen ones as him, but so far it was hard for him to believe why they were willing to get lost in this world and join the ranks of the cultists.
Among these cases, it may be said that the Dragon Fire Guild has nothing to do with the Descendants of Flor, but what about the Blood Oath and the Rain Listeners?
The relationship between the Blood Oath and the Jeflett Red Team is well known, and the Jeflett Red Team is a member of the descendants of Flor. It is obviously the shadow of the alliance behind the Grand Guild Alliance, so assuming that the Blood Oath Wasn't it an 'accident'?
Fang Plover couldn't help but shudder.
He thought of more details.
Judging from the information gathered from various aspects, the alliance has a close relationship with a certain big shot in Elpaxin - it may even be Elpaxin's current governor, the Marquis Gray Grace. The latter is the behind-the-scenes supporter of the Crow's Claw Temple's establishment in the North - or at least the tacit approval of the Temple's development and growth here.
During the battle in Gray Owl Town, it was the Marquis who was the first to express his stance. Before the three goddesses spoke out, Elpaxin once stood on the side of the Crow Claw Temple. Even after that, the Marquis showed an ambiguous attitude, neither supporting nor opposing.
Judging from the news circulating in many communities, in fact, the attitude of the Lord Marquis is also the request of the alliance in some aspects. It is said that on the day of the turmoil in Gray Owl Town, alliance officials were seen entering and exiting El Paxin No. 13, where the Marquis's residence is located.
Although the gossip circulating in these communities may not be all true and trustworthy, after Miss Tata and Luo Hao screened it out again, some useful information can still be found.
In addition, the Seven Seas Brigade is at the center of this whirlpool, so it is more sensitive to some information than ordinary people. Information that ordinary people cannot determine does not mean that they cannot draw conclusions. Based on these conclusions, it is not difficult to deduce the above facts.
In other words, there must be some kind of connection behind the Alliance, the Lord Archon, and the Crow Claw Temple.
The Alliance maintains the Crow's Claw Temple in such a way, how can people believe that there is no relationship between the two?
And does the Alliance know the secret behind the Crow's Claw Temple?
Were Alliance officials deceived by the Temple of Crow's Claw, and that the Temple was hiding such a conspiracy behind its cooperation with the Alliance? Or is it that the alliance itself already knows all this and maybe doesn't care? Or there is a third possibility, that is, the alliance is also involved in such a plan.
Of course, the third possibility seems a bit unbelievable to Fang Pliance himself. The cultists are trying to resurrect the dark saints and return to this world centuries after the disaster of Aesorin. In a world with a true god There is nothing incomprehensible about fanatical believers in this world.
But the chosen people and the indigenous people obviously cannot be considered together. What does the promise and grace given to the indigenous people by the dark saints mean to the chosen people?
But no matter whether it is the first, second or third possibility, at least in Fang Plover's view, the best choice right now is to report all this to the military. If the Super Sports Alliance is indeed involved in this conspiracy, then It is no longer something that he—Nanami Brigade can handle.
What they need to do now is to collect further evidence.
The only place he could think of was obviously the Gula Port where the ceremony would be held, but it was not that easy for the Seven Seas Traveler to go to this port.
The Seven Seas Traveler is now hidden in the clouds, but there will always be a moment when it leaves. The detection range of the wind element detector on the large sailboat can reach dozens of air miles or even hundreds of air miles, as long as they leave the cloud area , will enter the other party's field of vision.
Moreover, hiding in the clouds itself carries uncertain risks. The Jeffrit red team has lost their perception of them, but they have also lost their perception of the outside world. How to determine the direction in the clouds, even if For old sailors, it is also a job that depends on luck.
Tian Lan's nervous voice came from time to time in the sound transmission tube, and Miss Poet informed others of the general position and course of the Seven Seas Traveler from time to time. Of course, this was only an estimate——
It is difficult for the wind element detector to work in the cloud area. In fact, Sylvide also went to the bottom cabin. Even if she does not rely on her father's reputation, she is also a sailboat pilot who has passed the assessment of the Elpaxin Craftsmen Association. , whose professional knowledge comes in handy on such occasions.
He told Miss Tata to keep the Seven Seas Traveler heading south, over Ash Ridge, and not to lose altitude. In the current situation, the knights stationed at Gray Tree Ridge Fortress can't help them either. The Seven Sea Traveler will lead the people of Flor's descendants there but it will bring them trouble.
In addition to the descendants of Flor, Fang Plover is also worried about what he saw in the north. The army from the Dragon Roar Mountains has completely destroyed the Artori region. It is unknown when these undead will go south, and Gray Tree Ridge Fortress is blocking their way south.
He had already sent a message to the box and Miss May, reminding them of the situation in the north.
The Seven Seas Traveler would cross this cloud area and continue southward. He judged that the men in Jefflett's red team would patrol eastward to prevent themselves from escaping to the Rainbow Sky Gorge line, so if they were lucky, they would just pass through Jayfleet's red team. Fleet's redcoats left the cloud zone directly behind.
Of course, the wind element detector on a large sailboat cannot reach the longest detection range in every direction, and there is a blind spot behind it. If they are in this blind spot, they are very likely to escape the opponent's tracking range. .
Of course he knew that the descendants of Flor should still have several fleets in this area. Just like when they were in Nognis, the main fleet led several small fleets to conduct a net-like search of an airspace. But he thought that although there were many ships, not every fleet would have a large flagship like the Red Queen?
Unless the descendants of Flor used more than half of their squadrons, each squadron would have its main flagship in battle, but Fang Plover thought he was not so proud.
This is their only chance.
While he was thinking about it, the communication crystal in his hand suddenly lit up, and the familiar voice finally came from inside:
"Little Plover, what do you want from me?" The crystal projected a beam of light in front of Fang Plover, making the screen light up, and the image of Su Changfeng appeared inside.
However, what surprised Fang Yu was that the military attache of the special forces of Stargate Port always presented himself as a meticulous soldier, serious and elder-like, but today he looked a little different. His whole figure seemed to have changed from something. It was as if he had rushed back from a dusty place, his hair was messy, and there was a trace of ashes on his forehead.
Fang Yuan was stunned and asked: "What are you...?"
Su Changfeng coughed dryly: "Don't ask. There was a small problem at Stargate Port. I just went to deal with an emergency, so you didn't contact me."
As he spoke, he wiped the ashes from his forehead and asked: "What's wrong? What happened to you over there? I already know about the good things you have done in the north recently. If you just want to report this, Needless to say, your grudges with the Super Competitive Alliance are your own business. Of course, if you are really desperate, we can still help you find a way."
Fang Yu was really curious about what went wrong in Stargate Port.
He remembered that there was only one trouble in the Stargate Port when they were in Istania. The Stargate had been operating stably for more than half a century. How come when he came to Istania, the Stargate There were frequent problems with the door and it became troublesome.
However, he also understood that Su Changfeng was very tight-lipped and would probably not tell him these things.
Fang Yu thought for a moment and couldn't help but scratch his head and said: "But how much you look down on me. It's not like the Seven Seas Brigade just provoked the descendants of Flor today. Since I made such a decision in the first place, I won't Involve irrelevant people.”
"You have become increasingly angry after not seeing each other for a few days, but this is not completely irrelevant," Su Changfeng replied: "I just don't recommend that you continue to deepen the conflict with the alliance at that time, but you have already made a decision. This choice, of course we can only support your decision."
He sighed: "I said, as long as you do not violate the principles of the Stargate Declaration, we will protect you."
Hearing what the other party said, Fang Yu couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
Although he has decided that the Seven Seas Brigade will handle the grievances with the descendants of Flor by themselves, he does not intend to rely on others - and fighting for the refugees here is not just because of grievances, but also because of the grudges. It is to tell some people that if justice is trampled one day, then someone will raise the flag of righteousness.
He wants to raise the flag of the Free Chosen Ones who have been silent since Mount Covenant. Just as Yugudola said to him a long time ago, the Free Chosen Ones have lost too much, and facing the large guild alliance For such a behemoth, a piece of loose sand is obviously not feasible.
He is not trying to lead anyone, he just wants to tell people that the Free Chosen Ones are still here, and that is enough.
However, the grievances between the free choosers and the Grand Guild obviously have nothing to do with the military, but even so, Su Changfeng and the others are still willing to back him up, which makes Fang Yu feel a little warm in his heart. , and felt a little surprised.
This at least shows that there are still people who are willing to support the concept of free electors, and Su Changfeng more or less represents the official wishes of Stargate Port.
"That's not necessary," but he still shook his head and replied, "But you are right about one thing. This matter is indeed not entirely irrelevant to you."
Su Changfeng was slightly startled: "What?"
"I found something."
After Su Changfeng was stunned for a moment, his eyes quickly lit up: "Is it related to the Crow Claw Temple?"
really.
Listening to the other party's tone, Fang Yu vaguely understood that it was impossible that the military had not investigated the origin of the Crow's Claw Temple at all. It is almost impossible for a force with such suspicious appearance and sudden rise not to enter the military's field of vision.
Although according to diplomatic norms, the military adheres to the principle of not intervening in the internal affairs of Kaolin-Ishulian, this does not mean that Stargate Port neither sees nor hears, and becomes blind after leaving Crosswind Port. with the deaf. He never thought that he was very smart and capable. The military must have analyzed some of the things he suspected.
Noticing his gaze, Su Changfeng also reacted and replied: "You don't have to guess, the facts are similar to what you think. Of course we have also investigated the origin of this organization."
"So?" Fang Yu was also a little curious as to whether the information held by the military was more complete than his own.
But Su Changfeng shook his head: "Not many things were found. Our people at the top can't get in, but on the outside, it seems that the Crow's Claw Temple is no different from other temples. They just look more like each other in the north. It is a military organization, and the driving force behind it is the governor of El Paxin, and-"
He paused: "You should also know that it is a super competitive league."
"They are cultivating their power here, and you don't care?" Fang Yu couldn't help but ask.
"I can't control it. They are playing a marginal game and have not violated our principles. As for the warning - haven't we been doing this all the time, so what's the use?" Su Changfeng replied: "Okay, let's get back to the business. What did you find out?"
"It's a long story. I recorded a few videos and audios," Fang Yu replied, "You can see for yourselves."
Su Changfeng got the video from Fang Plover and immediately opened another window to play it. Those videos roughly recorded the experiences of the Seven Seas Brigade in Altori and what they saw under the Snow Stone Castle. everything.
Coupled with some of the information they collected and the voice recorded by Luo Yu.
Su Changfeng quickly read the information and frowned.
He raised his head, looked at the plover in front of him, and asked seriously:
"Are the above things just your guesses, or do you have definite evidence?"
Fang Yu sighed, knowing that it would be like this, but he did not have definite evidence. The phantom of Snow Stone Castle did not mean that there must be something wrong with the crystal. All the premises are based on the accuracy of his guess that the Crow's Claw Temple was manipulating the crystal.
Of course, that piece of audio can also be used as evidence, but it is not such effective evidence.
But at this point, is the evidence really that important?
He knew that the military should know what happened in Istania, so he answered straight to the point: "This is not really evidence. It is not so much a report as it is a reminder of a potential possibility. Is not it?"
Su Changfeng also realized his mistake at this time, but he was just looking for the reliability of the evidence out of habit. After reacting at this moment, he nodded: "That's true."
He stored the video in the storage device, then put it away, and then said: "The matter is a bit serious. If all this is true, I am afraid it will cause a series of chain reactions."
Su Changfeng gestured at the storage device in his hand, and then said: "Actually, you'd better pray that your guess is wrong, otherwise we will be in big trouble. You kid brings such big things every time, it seems I have to give you a one-ton medal."
"There's no need for the medal," Fang Yu couldn't laugh or cry: "Then what should we do now?"
"Wait," Su Changfeng replied concisely: "Wait until we confirm the evidence, but I will immediately tell the people of the descendants of Flor to stop their actions and let you go."
"Will they listen?" Fang Yu was a little surprised. The military can't interfere in the affairs of the Super Competitive Alliance. However, it would be a good thing if the people from Jefflett's red team could stop it. They could go directly to Gula to find evidence.
"Let's study and see if we can activate the control state," Su Changfeng replied, "Just wait for our news over there."
Fang Plover nodded.
However, it seemed that the other party was also quite anxious. After saying this, he hurriedly closed the communication channel.
And he was still thinking about whether to walk around the cloud area a few more times, so as to wait for news from Su Changfeng, but he didn't expect that the communication crystal had just dimmed when Hongye hurriedly opened the door and entered:
"Ed, there's a message from the Jefflett Red Team."
"The other side's commander wants to talk to you."
Fang Yu couldn't help but be startled when he heard this, thinking that he was so efficient?
…
