Chapter 98 0 Years of Waiting
Rhosid Islands, in the primitive jungle outside the city of Bayam.
The leaders of the resistance army gathered in a cave and looked respectfully at the "Sea God" favored person in front of him, who was wearing a black cloak, with yellowed eyebrows and dark blue eyes.
"Lord Danitz, now is an opportunity!" Karat, who had a shaved head, was in a wheelchair, and had a blue beard, said a little excitedly.
His partner, Edmonton with short red stripes on his face, followed:
"Lord Danitz, according to our intelligence personnel, the current situation in Bayam is very chaotic. Both the Church of the Storms and the people in the Governor's Palace are anxious because the Feysac army is besieging Backlund."
Having said that, Edmonton glanced at Karat and asked the person in charge of the corresponding field who had a better understanding of the situation to give a more specific description.
Karat looked at the solemn-looking Lord Danitz, and considered the language:
"There have been differences among them, some people want to mobilize the power of the colony to return to Backlund, and some people want to stick to it as the spark of revival.
"Such differences have caused the military and the Church of the Storms Beyonders to be at a loss, and loopholes have appeared in all aspects.
"Lord Danitz, this is our opportunity. We can fully agree to the conditions of the Feysac and Fenepot navy, cooperate with them to attack Bayam, and take back our country!"
Opportunity indeed...but is it something I can decide? I'm not stupid! After Danitz quietly listened to the statements of the leaders of the resistance army, he muttered a few words in his heart.
As an Intis, a famous big pirate, and a treasure hunter, he really has no mental burden to attack the Loen colony, and he has no hesitation and wandering emotions.
Of course, he does not have a strong sense of belonging to the Republic of Intis. Even when he occasionally works part-time as a pirate, he prefers to target Intis merchants because they carry more valuable luxury goods with them.
There is only one reason why Danitz did not agree to the request of the leaders of the resistance army on the spot, that is, he has become a "conspirator", and he is very clear about his position:
A humanoid microphone!
A tool responsible for spreading the word between Gehrman Sparrow and the leader of the resistance army!
Gehrman is most likely from Loen. If I dare to promise you directly, maybe I won't see the sun tomorrow... However, he doesn't seem to care about Loen at all... Shit! Don't be fooled by appearances! Danitz cleared his throat, looked around and said:
"This matter is of great importance. Immediately prepare a clean and peaceful altar for me. I want to pray to God."
In an organization that generally believed in "Poseidon", such a request did not surprise Carrat, Edmonton and others, and even met their expectations, so they immediately arranged manpower to prepare sacrifices.
…………
"The rebels in the Rhosid Islands can't sit still... They themselves are supported by Feysac, Intis, Fenepot and other countries, so they can persevere and not be destroyed by Loen and the three major churches... I They also squeezed a lot of subsidies from various countries..." After listening to Danitz's prayer, Klein sighed for a while.
Sitting in the ancient palace, he tapped his fingers on the edge of the long mottled table in front of him, pondered for a few seconds, and revealed Gehrman Sparrow the "world".
The crazy adventurer immediately put on a posture of prayer and said in a deep voice:
"...With the help of the current situation, directly negotiate with the high-level leaders of the Church of Storms and the Governor's Office of Rhosid, and exert the necessary pressure... The purpose is to force them to back down and accept the idea of the Rhosid people governing the Rhosid Islands...
"...The resistance army can protect most of the interests that the Loen people currently have,
Let them feel at ease to dispatch troops and Beyonders to return to Backlund…”
…………
Inside the clean and tidy altar, Danitz, who received the feedback, straightened his back.
He turned around, turned his attention to the leaders of the resistance army waiting outside, and said solemnly:
"I have received the oracle.
"God tells us that every one of His people is precious and should not be sacrificed for unnecessary wars.
"We will never start a war lightly, but we will not be afraid of war. In short, we will first try to use the current situation and our forces to negotiate with the Loen people, forcing them to make concessions that can satisfy most of us. Consider war again.
"God said, remember hatred, but don't be blinded by it, the people around you and a better future are the most important."
After becoming a "conspirator", Danitz found himself making up reasons to convince others that his ability to persuade others was rising. Many times, when he opened his mouth, his ideas took shape.
The leaders of the resistance forces such as Karat and Edmonton all had deep hatred for the Loen colonists, but the words of the Sea God and Lord Danitz managed to shake them.
They have a clear understanding of how powerful that "Sea King" is. If the war develops to the extent that both sides are red-eyed, the Blue Mountain Island where Bayam is located may be submerged by the sea as a whole and become Ruins, all local people will be dragged and buried.
The powerhouses of Feysac and Fenepot are indeed capable of preventing the collapse of the situation, but how much power can they divide on the edge of the Rhosid Islands?
For them, the leaders of the resistance forces such as Karat are not too convinced. They think that these guys are not fundamentally different from the Loen people. They are all robbers from the Northern Continent. They may tear off their masks at any time and become new colonists.
After a while of silence, Karat, who was in a wheelchair, looked at the man in the black cloak on the altar and said:
"Lord Danitz, we are willing to work hard for a peaceful solution."
He paused and said:
"Intelligence shows that the person who has the final say in the Rorsted Islands is the 'Sea King', Yann Courtman. We'd better negotiate with him directly."
Danitz nodded lightly and said:
"That's exactly what I thought.
"We need to send someone as a plenipotentiary to enter Bayam and face Ion Courtman..."
He was about to ask who was willing to go, when he suddenly found that Carrat, Edmonton and the others all stared at him, as if to say, the favored one of the "Sea God", the relatively detached Intis pirate is the most suitable object.
...shit! Danitz cursed secretly, looking at the crowd, his thoughts turned quickly:
"Well, this is an honor, and it also contains extreme danger. I know that some of you are full of sacrifice and want to make due contributions. Well, let's draw lots. This is the fairest way."
"I have no opinion." Karat and others replied without hesitation.
A few minutes later, Danitz looked at the cards in his hand, and the muscles in his face twitched indistinctly.
…………
City of Silver, at the top of the round tower, in the chief room.
Colin Iliad turned his attention to Derrick Berg, who looked stunted in contrast to the surroundings:
"Are you ready?"
Derrick held the giant "Thor's Roar" hammer with a handle like a leg bone, with a faint blue surface and entwined electric light, and nodded seriously:
"Ready."
He didn't act like a Beyonder in the "sun" field at all, closer to a Berserker.
Colin Iliad, with gray hair and old scars on his face, immediately moved his gaze and looked at Lovia:
"are you ready?"
Lovia, who has silver-gray curly hair and pale gray eyes, no longer wears a robe with black background and purple pattern as usual, and put on a dark armor.
She moved her head invisibly and said:
"No problem."
Colin the Demon Hunter, who had become a Silver Knight, turned his attention to the others in the room and asked if he was ready.
After getting all the affirmative answers, Colin Iliad walked slowly to a wall, took down the two straight swords hanging above, and carried them behind him.
"Let's go." The chief of the City of Silver gave an order immediately and concisely.
The exploration team he led will go to the afternoon town camp again to further explore the "Royal Court of Giants" and find the way to the real sea.
In the sound of the metal armor leaves colliding, Lovia, Derrick and others silently followed behind the chief, and Yuguan walked out of the room and went all the way down the stairs.
On the way, they saw Wete Hillmon and other elders of the "Six-Person Council", and saw the residents of the City of Silver who maintained the order of the round tower.
These people are either lying on the railings or waiting at the entrance of the stairs, their expressions are very solemn, and they seem to be seeing off this exploration team with hope.
No one spoke, and the scene was silent, but when Colin Iliad, Derrick Berg and others passed by, the residents of the City of Silver raised their right arms and put their fists in front of their foreheads.
With the sound of this action, Colin and other members of the exploration team left the round tower and came to the road.
Then they lit lanterns covered in animal skins.
Under the dim light, residents of Silver City walked out of their houses and stopped by the roadside.
They looked at Derrick and the others with admiration and anticipation, raised their right arms one after another, and pressed their fists to their foreheads.
Derrick straightened his back subconsciously, and his heart was hot.
In this way, their exploration team, surrounded by the crowd, walked along the road, came to the gate of the city, and walked out of the City of Silver.
It seems that there was a tacit understanding. As soon as Colin, Derrick, Lovia and others broke away from the protection of the city wall, they looked back at the hometown that had been standing for 2,584 years in the dark.
They saw that the residents of Silver City did not leave, and all stood near the city gate, looking at themselves and others.
With a swipe of the ground, the black people raised their right arms and put their fists in front of their foreheads.
This is both an expression of the highest respect and the deepest blessing.
Colin Iliad stared silently for a few seconds, closed his eyes, raised his right arm, and slammed down:
"Set off!"
Derrick and the others turned around immediately, carrying the animal skin lantern that emitted a dim yellow light, and silently and firmly set foot on the road shrouded in darkness. .
Target: "Royal Court of Giants".
