Chapter 378 The Ancestor Is Watching In The Sky
? The two beams of light above the Fortress of the Treaty are still shining brightly in the sky - as the giant sunset descends on the horizon and night falls, these two beams are particularly striking in the dark night sky, like two sharp swords piercing the darkness Generally, it is clearly visible for several kilometers around the Fortress of the Treaty.
These two beams may indeed represent two sharp swords—the sharp swords of Anzu and Typhon, and now these two sharp swords are negotiating for peace.
The face-to-face secret talks between the king and the emperor have ended, and the general tone has been set in the confrontation between the two rulers. No one knows what they said in the secret talks, but since the formal negotiations after dark were held as scheduled, That means everything is still going according to plan.
After the formal negotiation began, Duke Silas Laurent, as the highest guardian of the eastern border of the kingdom and the first executor of the border, entered the long hall of the Fortress with his eldest son Belk Laurent and sat in the king's seat. In this position, he could see Andersa Wendell sitting across from the long table, and he could even see the legendary Typhon ruler, Rosetta the Great.
Rosetta Augustus wore a black coat with gold trim, almost austere, but it did nothing to detract from the impressive aura of the Emperor Typhon, who sat in the seat of Francis II. On the opposite side, there was a limited smile on his slightly gloomy and thin face. The feeling he brought to Duke Silas Lauren was like a predator accompanied by shadows. Although this predator came under the light, Still with lingering gloom, he smiled in the light, but seemed to hide another face in the dark all the time.
In contrast, Francis II always had a calm and calm smile. The old king's eyes did not seem to have the slightest pressure, but he never left Emperor Rosetta's body. His calm and powerful voice came in. The ear of Duke Loren said: "It has been seven hundred years since the ancestors of the human kingdoms crossed the wasteland and established a new country on the border of the mainland. We have enjoyed seven hundred years of peace, but each of us Everyone knows that - the wasteland has not receded in the past seven hundred years, and as many scholars have warned, although we are peaceful now, there is only a wall between our peace and the catastrophe. That's it."
"This wall was made by the elves, but it's not as permanent and reliable as we thought," Rosetta Augustus said. He nodded slightly, agreeing with Francis II's words, "There is clear evidence now. , proving that monsters in the wasteland have the ability to pass through barriers - a common threat."
"So we have come here, just like the ancestors seven hundred years ago, to unite to find a way to fight this threat together," Francis II said solemnly, raising his hand to the sky, "The ancestors are in the gods. The kingdom is watching us, and under the gaze and witness of our ancestors, it is time to put aside those senseless greed and disputes, and jointly seek the path of peace."
In the night sky, within the range illuminated by two bright beams,
A swift and small bird passed through the beam of light, making a crisp chirping as it flew higher.
It flew higher and higher, and in just a few breaths, it had risen into the clouds and flew to a place beyond the reach of the human eye-whether it was the speed of flight or the altitude it stayed, this little The birds in the sky have surpassed the concept of ordinary "little birds". However, at this height, it is still in the darkness of night, and it is impossible for the sentinels on the surface to look up at the sky to see this scene that goes against common sense.
The bird turned over in the air, and the magical airflow that suddenly rolled up quickly wrapped its entire body, tearing the surrounding clouds into pieces. The huge body quickly emerged from the air and gradually condensed into a solid body-hard blue-blue scales, a slender and elegant neck, and huge wings that covered the sky. As these things emerged, the former "bird" Has turned into a dragon.
The giant dragon flexibly adjusted its flight posture in the air, and its wings floated with the brilliance of magic power, using magic instead of aerodynamics to bend its heavy body to a sharp angle in the sky, in the huge golden In the vertical pupil, two beams of light from the Fortress of the Treaty are still reflected on the surface.
The giant dragon took one last look at the Covenant Castle, then suddenly fluttered its wings and continued to rapidly increase its height, until it flew to a high altitude beyond the reach of any mortal creature, before it glided on the edge of the atmosphere.
At this height, the faint arc of the earth can almost be seen.
After sliding for a while, a pale golden light appeared in front of the dragon, and quickly unfolded into a crystal-like curved screen. The screen jumped with complex curves and constantly refreshed runes, and waited until those jumping curves gradually stabilized. , the dragon spoke, it was a majestic and low female voice: "The signal transmission height has been reached, and the observation results have been reported.
"The two human kingdoms, Ansu and Typhon, have begun peace negotiations. The place of negotiation is the border treaty fort between the two countries, and it has now entered the substantive stage...
"No abnormal surging phenomenon of magic power has been found on the mainland, and since the last aberrations invaded two countries, no more aberrations have been found in the northern region.
"The magical environment at the top of the atmosphere is still stable... temporarily stable."
The lines and runes on the curved screen trembled, and a moment later came the sound of a response, although the surrounding air was whistling, the voice was still clearly identifiable: "Don't forget the rules, don't intervene in the affairs of the mortal kingdom-unless they behave If there are enough variables, or you have come into contact with the legacy of the sailor, otherwise the dragon will not be able to enter the world."
"Don't worry, the lesson of 'Revolt against the Tide', I got full marks in history class," the blue-scaled dragon responded to the voice across the screen in a brisk tone, "I can be dispatched as an observer, The jury must trust me."
"...they actually regretted it the third day they sent you out, you actually went to burn the land of mankind," the voice across the screen suddenly became a little frantic, "and I don't understand - the panel's Do people really not know that there is something wrong with your eyes? How did you get the observer qualification in the first place?!"
"The observer doesn't have to use the naked eye to see it," the blue giant snorted dissatisfiedly, "I am familiar with the human world this season and no dragon in China can match it. Based on this, the panel will Gotta let me out-"
As he spoke, the blue giant suddenly turned his neck awkwardly. "She" kept gliding, but she tried her best to raise her head and glance at the densely packed bright stars in the night sky.
The voice on the opposite side of the screen began to complain again, but the blue dragon interrupted the companion on the opposite side: "Speaking of which, I don't know if it is an illusion, I have felt that someone is watching me from the beginning..."
"Anyone watching?" The voice across the screen was full of surprise, "Where are you now?! Who can see you?!"
"At the signal transmission height, at the top of the atmosphere," the blue giant looked up awkwardly again, and kept changing the direction of its sliding, as if trying to avoid a certain line of sight, "I don't know how to respond. Thing—the line of sight seems to come from above."
"Above? You... don't talk nonsense, the sailor has been away for millions of years! Are you sure someone above is watching you?"
Listening to the voice sent by the companion, the blue dragon tried to look up to the sky again, but in the clear starry night sky, there was no figure of the navigator, neither like the legendary one. The engine flashes like falling stars, and there is no charming halo when the star gate is opened, let alone the splendid flash of the starry sky channel cutting through the night sky. The stars just hang quietly in the night, as they have been since ancient times.
"It must be my delusion," the blue dragon muttered. "How could the sailor come back."
"...You scared my scales to change color!" The voice on the opposite side of the screen seemed relieved, but with a hint of complaint, "Okay, the communication is about to end, you continue to perform your tasks. The next contact time will remain the same. ."
The communication ended, and the floating projection in front of the blue dragon disappeared, but the feeling that someone was watching from a high altitude... still lingered on the dragon.
"...Who is so immoral, the mage's eyes are opened in the stratosphere?!" After a while, the dragon finally became angry, and then she suddenly flapped her huge wings, driven by a violent wind of magic, her The huge body began to swerve violently in the air, "I can't stun you with a cyclotron...hey...hey...hey mom cramps... cramps... cramps..."
Cecil led, Gawain ended the connection with the satellite in a stunned moment.
He was watching Fort Contract—he took a break in the afternoon after his first surveillance at noon, and resumed it after supper.
Although after regaining the satellite's viewing angle adjustment permission, he found that the clarity of the monitoring screen has dropped a lot, and it is no longer as high-definition as when it was in the "satellite fine" state, but a real-time monitoring perspective can still allow him to observe the first time. The general situation of the border peace talks, so after estimating the start of the negotiations, he will keep an eye on the movement of the Fortress as long as he has time.
Until just now, a giant dragon suddenly broke into his field of vision...
He was 100% sure that it was a giant dragon, and judging from the color of the scales and the general outline, he felt that the giant dragon was very similar to the giant dragon he saw in the old Cecil territory when he just opened the coffin— - It's just not sure if it's really the same, after all, no one knows whether the appearance of the dragon is the same.
After the giant dragon suddenly broke into the field of vision, Gawain's full attention was attracted. This was the second time he observed the giant dragon after his "resurrection", and his huge curiosity even caught him for a while. Forgetting the ongoing peace talks in the Fortress of the Treaty - he immediately began to track the movement of the giant dragon, and put the matter of the Fortress of the Treaty aside for the time being.
But it doesn't matter much. After all, the Covenant Fort is still blocked by the roof, and the current satellite perspective does not have a see-through function, so even if he continues to stare at the peace negotiation scene, he is just studying the roof of others.
He followed the giant dragon for more than ten minutes. In the second half of the tracking, Gawain was surprised to find one thing: the giant dragon felt his sight!
The giant dragon frequently raised its head and changed its flight path, which was obviously the realization that someone was peeping at him.
But what made Gawain fortunate was that the giant dragon seemed to have no way of taking the satellite in the sky, and the behemoth never escaped his sight...
It was only at the end that the giant dragon escaped the surveillance in a way that stunned Gawain - it was a thrilling super-high-speed continuous maneuver, accompanied by a helical inclined dive straight to the ground.
In the face of such a completely unexpected and highly technical maneuver, Gawain finally slowed down half a beat in adjusting the angle of view and focal length, and lost the dragon...
