Chapter 1452 Climbing

The words of the head of the Great Demon quickly stabilized the morale of the army.

Most of the knights still believed in the head of the Great Demon who had just been crowned king, and the rest of the heads did not give any objections, which meant that there was no problem with this "argument".

Within the expeditionary force, some knights who were dissatisfied with the Holy City management system, or some knights who had in-depth communication with the alien demons in London games also supported such a [big change].

Since the early concept of building the Holy City was - "resisting alien demons", current changes are also necessary.

only.

Some sensible knights still see some clues,

Since change is necessary, why notify everyone in advance and put the whole thing on the bright side.

In addition, the landmark building at the top is not a "neutral organization" belonging to the parliament, but a building directly related to the [Steam Knights], giving people a sense of dictatorship.

...

"Demps' reminder was right, the changes in the Holy City were greater than expected.

The statement of the head of the Great Demon may be correct, but behind the whole change there must be a hidden secret... The change in the civilian area alone would never have happened in the past. "

Because Han Dong belongs to the Fourth Army, he is located at the tail of the main force.

【Magic eyes are fully open】

In a scanning way, spy on the situation of nearby civilian areas.

Civilians who are confined to their homes all show more or less "steam mechanization", with mechanical prosthetics being the most common... Obviously, the transformation is completely free, otherwise civilians simply cannot afford it at the price of prosthetic limbs.

Such transformation not only includes young people, but also the elderly who are set at an advanced age are completely 'accepted'.

And the older you get, the higher the coverage of mechanical transformations... Moreover, Han Dong even saw that some civilians were actually receiving basic training from apprentice knights.

Some new branches of the Knights also appeared in the lower civilian areas, replacing the original security department and carrying out some kind of militarized management of the civilians.

"All the people are soldiers?

The former Holy City used mandatory conscription in the aspect of 'troop supply'.

Every household in the civilian area needs to provide young adults to go to the Destiny Space in the [Festival Square] in a fixed month of each year to conduct the "Fate Preliminary Test".

Once they survive and become "returners", the class status of the entire family will be elevated, and they will directly get rid of their civilian status and live a carefree and happy life.

The Holy City itself also advocates multiple births, with children as the unit, and each family can receive a maternity allowance that provides children with adulthood.

Therefore, most commoner families will have as many children as possible, praying that one of the children will lead the family out of commoner status.

Today, this pattern has changed.

Due to the nationwide transformation provided by the Steam Knights, individuals of all ages are eligible to go to the Destiny Space.

Moreover, due to the assistance of prosthetic equipment and the basic training given by the Knights, the survival rate of civilians going to Destiny Space will also be greatly improved.

...however, the atmosphere in some of these families is a little strange.

Instead of training, they were studying some kind of eccentric literature. "

With doubts, he continued to walk among the familiar streets of the Holy City.

Cross the Mothrabi Canal which separates the civilian areas.

When stepping up the stairs to the [Second Floor Area].

Sally, who was by her side the whole time, smelled a strange aura floating in the space, and she was slightly startled as a 'black goat'.

"Nicholas, how come there is a strange smell in your human city? And it belongs to a high-level breed no less than our black goat... Didn't you just gain sovereignty? How come there are already aliens living in?"

Sally said this, and Han Dong also caught a glimpse of a thin wisp of demonic aura floating in the air.

Its source is diametrically opposite to the direction of the Knights Academy, extending to the deepest along the railway tracks and residential buildings on the second floor.

"Huh? This direction...isn't the location of the [Secret Hall Headquarters] of the Secret Words Knights?

Why is there a strange demon aura coming out? Ask Charlie, he might know something. "

However, when Han Dong spread his perception out, he could not find Charlie in the expedition.

Not only that, but all the knights related to the Knights of Secret Words are gone...except for Han Dong, of course. It seems that they received a secret letter when they entered the city and have quietly left the team.

This kind of weird feeling made Han Dong germinate the idea of ​​slipping away quietly, and planned to go to the secret hall to see what was going on.

However, as the main hero of the expedition, Han Dong is still easy to be discovered once he leaves the team... not to mention taking Miss Sally by his side.

At this moment, a hand lightly placed on Han Dong's shoulder.

"Nicholas, don't rush to spy on the truth of all this. Follow the big army to the parliament area first... You will naturally understand at that time."

"Um."

Due to Demps' reminder, Han Dong squeezed the crow condensed from his palm back to the original state of magic.

Climb the stairs and go up.

There are not many strange places on the third floor, and the [bell tower] not far away is also functioning normally.

However, the headquarters of the knights were all empty, and it seemed that they had gathered in the parliamentary area ahead of time.

Continue to go up and walk up the stairs called "Zeus's Step" to the council floor.

The "pillar of steam" towering in the center is operating at full capacity,

The pillar protruding from the ground is about 500 meters, and the middle position is the headquarters of the Mechanic Sect. The [Holy Ring] exudes a sense of oppression, as if a certain existence is watching everyone in the holy ring.

However, most of the knights were attracted by the new parliament building, and even some knights could not accept such a change.

"Huh? Has the parliament building been completely renovated?"

Originally absolutely forbidden, with multiple layers of enchantment inside and outside, the parliament lobby, which kept the top secrets of the Holy City, has been completely overturned and rebuilt.

Now, with the "pillar of steam" as the center, a completely open parliament area has been reconstructed.

The shape is similar to the Colosseum in ancient Rome.

"This! This open parliamentary area, without any capping structure, is directly under the comprehensive surveillance of the higher-level [Holy Ring].

Such a hierarchical structure is too straightforward, right? No wonder it was done in secrecy during the Great Crusade. "

As the expeditionary force stepped into the open Parliament Square, there was immediate cheers.

The garrison knights gathered here in advance welcomed the return of the expeditionary force in the warmest and most respectful manner.

period.

Han Dong's eyes quickly looked around.

Most of the members are still alive, but they are completely motionless like sculptures, sitting in the outer field as a kind of 'spectator', without any movement or verbal expression.

With the arrival of all members of the expedition force, the [Thirteen Knights] reunited.

Boom!

The ground trembled, and thirteen towering stone pedestals suddenly rose in front of them.

The material of the stone seat, the glyphs on the surface, and the numbers behind the stone seat correspond to the heads of each group.

At this time.

The five heads of the expeditionary army sat in their corresponding positions... The seat of the head of the great demon stood in the middle.

at the same time.

In the sacred ring area above everyone's heads, beams of light shrouded the stone pedestal down.

The heads of the delegations who had left their hands in the holy city also descended and landed on the corresponding stone seats.

It's just that the man sitting on the steam stone seat is not the gold master, but the deputy head of the Steam Knights, Mr. Newton.
