Chapter 640 Announcement to the Whole Country
Due to the efficient nature of magic communication, the news of the demise of the Mutual Aid Poor Army spread throughout the Scott Empire in just one day, especially after the five nobles blocked all news about Almoda-Flame Claw, Those mid-level nobles who have no access to the real core secrets will still publicize their achievements according to general war victories.
Under the active publicity of these aristocrats who were still thinking of changing ways to find excuses to increase taxes and hold banquets, notices announcing victory were posted at the gates of many towns in the Scott Empire...
The contents of these announcements are similar, nothing more than praising the victories of the nobles with extremely gorgeous rhetoric, and then condemning the "rebel mob" for their ignorance with extremely dark words, and finally not forgetting the emphasis of righteous words, Nobles are natural rulers, and anyone who dares to question is a bloody villain.
Perhaps in the period when the nobles were benevolent and the empire was at peace, a group of poor people who "concerned about national affairs" would watch the announcement suddenly issued by the ruling class, but now, under the background of turmoil in the Scott Empire, this is completely The parchment used to show off the victories to the nobles has long been neglected.
Among the busy pedestrians at the gates of every town, there are at most one or two literate poor people who read the notice twice, then shook their heads helplessly and left as if nothing had happened. Even though many people knew the news of the collapse of the mutual aid society, most of them barely survived The poor who can survive will not be touched by this, they have "more important" lives to be busy, and they have no time to care about things that are "irrelevant" to themselves.
However... the notices posted by the nobles may not attract the attention of the poor, but a young man walking slowly with a horned dragon was attracted by the curled parchment.
I saw this dusty traveler driving the obedient horned dragon to avoid the pedestrians coming and going, and then read the notice at the gate of the city.
There is no doubt that this seemingly ordinary boy is the "brave" Ganatika who has been far away from Pearl City.
In fact, at this time, Ganatica still knew nothing about what happened in Pearl City. He followed Pandora's advice for several days, avoiding every town and rushing at full speed, until today... he ran out of food and The boy from the source of water came to this remote small city to buy supplies.
Then... Ganatika saw the conspicuous notice posted on the gate of the city.
With his excellent eyesight, Ganatica could easily see every line of text on the parchment notice. Of course, he also knew the meaning of each text immediately...
I saw that the notice read majestically:
"Through the unremitting efforts of our nobles, the hard work of the loyal knights, and the pious cooperation of friends who have lost their way, we finally defeated the evil "traitor mob army" two days ago. organization, now a large number of professionals and poor people who were bewitched by the evil leader Ganatika have come to their senses, and the only remaining, unforgivable "evil witch" Pandora has also been sentenced to death, and the kingdom of Scott has been restored once again. The tranquility and peace of the world, this is the undeniable great contribution of our nobles..."
There are a lot of content in the notice, and the rhetoric praising the nobles and the dark mutual aid association in the back is even more excessive and innumerable, but... Ganatika stopped after reading this, because, just after he fully understood the meaning of a few key sentences , the thoughts of the young brave man stopped abruptly in the buzzing sound in his mind!
"We completely defeated the "traitorous mob army" two days ago, "the pious cooperation of friends who lost their way", "Pandora has been sentenced to death"...
A sentence pierced through Ganatica's soul like a sudden blade, and even at this moment, the young man with a blank mind didn't even know what he should be thinking at this time.
How is it possible that the Mutual Aid Society has collapsed? It's only been two short days, how did it suddenly become like this when it was obviously quite promising? And what does the notice say about "the pious cooperation of friends who have lost their way and found their way back"? How is this possible? How could so many kind and righteous companions betray the Mutual Aid Association that everyone formed together, obviously I gave them selfless help, and obviously the Mutual Aid Association extended a helping hand to so many poor people who had nowhere to go...
What Ganatica couldn't believe or didn't dare to believe the most was that the beautiful girl Pandora who answered her confession before leaving two days ago...has died?
"No... no, no, no, it's impossible... this... this is all a suspicious strategy of those despicable nobles! It's a clumsy method that they came up with after they couldn't find Pandora and their companions... This is definitely not the case. real"!
In any case, she couldn't believe everything said in the notice in front of her eyes. Ganatica desperately tried to convince herself that all this was a nobleman's conspiracy, and that her trusted companion would not betray her, Pandora... the one she loved so much Girls will never die either!
"Shh!"
Ignoring the surprised eyes of the people around him, the angry Ganatica tore off the parchment paper pasted on the wall, and then, after tearing the piece of paper into pieces flying all over the sky, the boy with twinkling eyes in his pupils Then with trembling fingers, he took out a metal steel sheet inscribed with many magic runes in his pocket.
This is an emergency communication device that can communicate with the leaders of many members of the mutual aid society. Due to the shortage of funds of the mutual aid society, even the more powerful leaders are only allowed to use this precious magic tool for communication in emergency situations, and according to the regulations , members who are called by the communication steel sheet are obliged to respond as soon as possible.
Now, Ganatica is patiently using steel plates to contact those leaders who he identifies as "companions" one by one. Among them are "Brother Axe" and "Tao Nuo", and even Actor It is also within the scope of the connection.
But... this time, Ganatica was doomed to be disappointed.
Unprecedentedly, his contact has not received any response from anyone, even Pandora, who usually always answers him at the fastest speed... This time, he did not send a bunch of messages full of exhortations and concerns with a smile...
The icy metal sheet is silent, as silent as the only remaining ice floe in the raging waves, and the last piece of solid ice has already cracked under the beating of the waves, just waiting for the last big wave to come over, I'm afraid This pure white ice layer is about to be completely wiped out in the huge waves...
"No, Pandora, I'm going to find Pandora. Even if something happens to Pearl City, I will never believe that my companions will betray me... I will save them, even if I die, I will die with Pandora Together"!
Ganatica, who crushed the useless communication steel pieces with a dazed expression, dragged his exhausted body as fast as he could and jumped onto the horned dragon's back, then controlled The boy with the reins turned the mount 180 degrees without hesitation.
Next, Ganatica's destination will be the gloomy Pearl City. He can't convince himself to accept the betrayal of his companions, let alone the fact that his beloved has fallen. The "brave" who has completely lost his ability to think is now going to To save everything I have, even if I pay the price of my life... I will not hesitate!
