"Copy that," the messenger said, "What's the matter?" He didn't seem to care who was speaking on the other side.
"This is Brumnot! Lord White Envoy, we have finally contacted you! Otto, you have lost contact with the tower for three weeks. Due to abnormal astrology, the observation station cannot find you... "
"I know this better than you." Bai Zhizhi nailed the bishop of the council to the ground with a knife. He stood up slowly, and blood began to pour from the wound. "I'm very busy, so is there an astrologer here?" He walked directly to the altar, leaving the surviving bishop behind.
…
"Teacher! Teacher!" Sabina looked away from the observation ball, and the starlight in her eyes dimmed. At the top of the tower, apart from her, there were only messy furnishings, and the large crystal in the center was still flickering. She shouted loudly and hurriedly opened the door. "Teacher! Mr. Larsen!" Her voice echoed throughout the tower.
When our Lord "Eye of Iron" stepped onto the top floor, this overly excited astrologer apprentice was standing dejectedly in the corner, listening to the reprimands of an old scholar with a beard longer than his robe. She twisted her fingers, showing a look of regret and shame.
"Sir Sidney." He pretended not to know what was going on, "What mistake did my little apprentice make again? Ah, of course I am not questioning your advice... It's just that this is really troublesome - no matter what mistake , she just repaired the viewing crystal as compensation for the last mistake, and now I can't think of any more terrible punishment than this."
The old scholar glanced at Larson with half-closed eyes, then ran his pink wrinkled fingers through his long beard from beginning to end, and then replied: "I don't have time to discuss with you the methods and techniques of disciplining disciples." His voice is extremely soft, and he often appears sleepy and tired. "Listen, next time a kid screams loudly in broad daylight, I'll let her scream in the early hours of the morning."
"Good idea," Larson said.
"Has this kid repaired the viewing crystal?" Sidney turned to look at Sabina. He opened his eyes for a moment and nodded.
"What can I do for you?" Miss Astrologer forced a smile.
"Shut up. Also, be careful with the soles of your shoes, otherwise I'd rather you not wear them. Do you understand now?"
The girl nodded quickly and bent down. The old scholar rolled up his beard, held it in his hand, and went down the stairs. Until there was an inaudible knock on the door at their feet, the master and the disciple breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"He...I..." Sabina wanted to say something anxiously, as if remembering the promise she had just made, she could only reach out and make gestures in the air.
I see you have nothing important to do. "Tell me why you're looking for me." Larsen signaled her not to worry. Sidney hated making noise because he always rested during the day and worked at night. Even His Excellency "Dark Night Qiming" accepted his request because of this. "Is there any movement in Gavash again? Or is there unrest in one of the vassal countries?"
The girl stretched out her hand, meaning: My snowflake ring is missing.
Larson sighed. "this one?"
These words brought her back to her senses, and she quickly shook her head desperately. "Moon!" She finally forgot about Sidney.
"It's daylight now, child." Larson comforted her while leading Sabina towards the room where the crystal was placed. "You can't find it in the daytime."
"It's still night at Eastman's."
"Eastman?" He wondered. Could something have happened to that ghost place again?
"I can't tell clearly, sir, you'd better see for yourself. I contacted Bai Zhizhi, and he is at the Eastman Kingdom." The future astrologer lady turned the metal wheel on the base, and the scene in the crystal It suddenly became clear.
It was indeed Bai Zhizhi. "Lord Commander." Larson lowered his head.
"I thought you hung up." The voice from the other side didn't sound happy. Fortunately, the messenger was not Sabina. He understood the importance of the matter and therefore did not get entangled in this issue. "The observation station was flooded by the black moon tide?" But he went straight to the more fatal key.
"A little glitch. What happened to Eastman?"
At this time, there was no need to spend time explaining the cause of the malfunction. Bai Zhizhi seemed very satisfied with his efficiency. "The Broken Moon is trying to complete itself with the help of the Fairy's Moon Sacrifice and the magic of the Black Moon Tide." The other side silenced for a moment, "The Council of Light is maintaining and promoting this process."
Broken Moon completes? Glorious Parliament? Larsen seemed to have heard a fantasy, "Wait a minute, I seem to have learned about the recent movements of the Glorious Council." He remembered that after Eze left Clover City, a cardinal went south to deal with it. Could it be that those guys from the Holy Knights have set up another trap?
"Is the lion on duty at the observation deck at this time?"
"Uh, yes, it's not me anyway." Larson began to feel that something was wrong, "My little apprentice accidentally lost himself out of the Floating Cloud City, and Zachary went to find her." Or in this way. An excuse to enjoy some time off.
"That professor of astronomy?"
"The 'Deep Space Patriarch' is studying an inner earth egg." God knows where he found so many weird things. "As for 'Gatekeeper' Jerome, I don't know his whereabouts either."
Larson worried that the answer would not satisfy the messenger, and it did.
"Tell Demosis that Broken Moon is preparing to perform a divine descent in the main city of the Eastman Ice Territory." The other person said, "Ask him whether he has fulfilled the agreement."
"No problem." Larsen agreed immediately and ordered Sabina to take her Night Whispering Ring to notify the tower master. "What can I do for you?" The word "God's Desire" made him suddenly realize the seriousness of the problem.
The gods of Knox are closely related to order. As the guardian of the barrier, the Sky Tower needs to make reasonable responses. The great astrologer began to think about the progress of Broken Moon's plan. No matter what, he had to control the development of things first.
Suddenly, he remembered something: "Wait, Lord Commander, you said that the Radiant Council participated in the divine descent and sent the Holy Knights and a cardinal of the Holy Inquisition?" Larsen noticed that the envoy was in an abnormal state, " How are you? Do you need help? Please don't take any chances... If Broken Moon really completes its existence, then I think Chloe may not be able to go to war with the Council of Light for the time being."
"..."
"If the logistics department is ready at dawn, there will be no need to start a war." Bai Zhizhi told him, "Our Lord Bishop needs assistance. You are right, now is not the time for conflict."
I see you need help too. Larson looked at the messenger reflected in the screen and asked subconsciously: "What about the Star Gap?"
"Are you shipping anything?"
"I mean, do you need manpower now? It's already dawn in the eastern part of Binya Io. If there is any change in the Broken Moon, it would be better to leave it to the astrologer." For example, Sir Sidney, he often hears from the other party Complain that the nights are too short and the days are too long.
"No need. If things go well, the problem will be solved at dawn in Eastman. If it doesn't go well, Lord Sage will take care of it."
…
"Is that Mr. Eye of Iron opposite?" the bishop asked. He didn't bleed to death, the herald's magic was perfect for slowing down the process.
The White Envoy re-strengthened the ice on the altar and had no time to chat with him.
"Another great astrologer." Bishop Edgar sighed, "but the Holy Inquisition is missing a member." Facing insiders of the demon hunting movement, even if some words were spoken frankly, he would not feel ashamed.
"He is similar to your apprentice." The messenger replied.
"Stepping into the sky is like stepping on the ladder of progress. After crossing the end of the path of death, they are on the road to the truth." He couldn't help but think of the light he saw in his own fire, that It was his pursuit from the beginning to the end. "Sooner or later he will grow up." Sometimes Daniel was glad that the tower was an organization of astrologers and not a messenger like Bai.
"More than these, I want to know how fast the viewing communication technology is developing." The young man looked at the runes flashing under his feet. "Even if the coordinates are set in Eastman in advance, the signal should not penetrate the barrier of the secret realm."
There is only one explanation for this situation——
…
"Camaria's replacement is almost complete," Lemons said. "The magic power of Yuedu is gradually growing."
"You still haven't found Meimei." York suddenly said. While passing by the alley that was supposed to be Sprout Street, the Paladin discovered many footprints, including wolf paw prints. But that was left over a long time ago. "Even Uriel and the Count didn't notice it."
The Paladin Commander had different opinions on this. "The werewolf's escape is annoying. But the apprentice of the White Envoy took the Countess with him. Did you really not know that they would follow you all the time?"
Lucia's Sita thought for a moment, "What are you going to do to me? Interrogate? Torture me to extract a confession?" Then I have to wonder whether the Council of Light has really fallen. He was not worried about his situation at all, but there was always a strange feeling of guilt in using the commandments and creed of the Paladin. "As if we were demons."
"The goddess's will must be carried out." The Holy Knight Commander pulled down his visor again, and his voice squeezed out from the gap.
Sometimes he would look worriedly toward the city, and York knew he was worried about the cardinal too. In fact, the mercenaries were no strangers to Bishop Edgar, who led the Holy Knights to cause the massacre in the Ice Territory that shocked Binya Aio fifteen years ago. And the Lemons Theodor in front of him was still his deputy at that time.
If the White Envoy cannot resist the Cardinal's attack, then our struggles will only delay Meimi's death. York didn't know how the battle in the Sky Realm would be won or lost. He hoped that this time the goddess would still give a fair verdict instead of favoring the knights under his command. Of course, it would be great if the sun could rise earlier.
