Scene 265 Arrival at Ampelsel

As Eruin, it is the busiest commercial port and cargo distribution center in the entire south of Jeruz. Starting from the early morning when the shaky, cold lights are hung on the lampposts, until the sea rises like the moon rises, the port is open all day long. ∮E∮Novel∮网, www.exiao ｈｕｏ.Ｃ∮Ｏ∮Ｍ∮Businessmen and dock workers are busy all day long, accumulating an astonishing amount of wealth for this huge port, only in the season when storms visit the shining sea every year Only in this golden route will it become deserted, allowing the residents of the city to stop and rest for a while.

Priest Wood stood under the white stone lighthouse in a white robe trimmed with red. A person like him was sent here by the temple to serve as the dean of the Ampelsel Diocese, and he is also the spiritual leader of the entire Eruin Flame Temple. As long as you stay in this position for another fifteen years, you will have the qualifications to enter the core of power in the temple and become one of the eleven great priests. At that point, even the position of high priest in the temple is just a step. far away.

Most people can't imagine what he wants to pursue with his status. Wood has a thin face and sunken cheeks. Although he is less than eighty years old, he looks like a weathered old man with only a pair of deep-set eyes. The eyes are bright and majestic, so majestic that ordinary people can't help but feel timid at first sight. The officiant pursed his lips, and looked calm on the outside, but in his heart he was no better than the nobles of all sizes in Eruin in recent times. How much calmer.

"The lions of Tuoquining are ready to move, and there must be support from the Earth Temple behind them." Wood stood on the hillside, watching the large and small sailboats coming in and out of the port, leaving long tracks in the blue inlet. The clouds of sails formed a strange scene in the waters of the trestle. Every waterway was filled with senior pilots waiting to enter and exit. The wealth contained in this continuous flow made this high-ranking man unable to bear it. Some lamented, "Eruin is the frontline against the Earth Temple. We must not allow this civil strife to continue for too long. There is not much time left for us."

around him. His friend Priest Ikan nodded in agreement. The two have been partners in this position for many years. Although neither of them is native to Eruin, they know this ancient kingdom well. "However, the Lion Man is ready to make a move. If he really wants to invade the country, he will probably have to wait until next year. Especially since the food will be confiscated this autumn, the Earth Temple will not dare to take action rashly."

Wood glanced at his companion.

"Do you know how old this white stone lighthouse is, Icahn?"

Priest Icahn glanced at the lighthouse next to the two of them. This lighthouse was once a symbol of Ampelsel. 『≤Ｅ』≤Novel『≤网, www.exiaosh uo.COM≤ When the late Lord Ek established the port here, Amperesel was far from its current size, and it was not a so-called trading port. This lighthouse was once Guiding the navy of the former Lord Ek and the navy of the Temple of Fire to fight on the nearby sea, the White Stone Lighthouse has always been regarded as a symbol of Eruin, symbolizing perseverance in the darkness.

"It's a pity that the lighthouse was destroyed by a fire in front of Fifty East.

Its historical value was also burned. Although a new lighthouse was rebuilt, it was not the original one after all. "Icahn understands what his companion means. He appreciates the royal party and the princess because they have the same persistence for glory as himself, but history is history. Wood is obviously reminding him to treat everything fairly.

"The same goes for this kingdom. No matter how many years of history it has, the glory it persisted in has been abandoned by its descendants, and what is left is just a shell. In comparison, being given a new mission is just like this Like a lighthouse, that’s what it deserves.”

"I understand, Master Priest." Icahn replied humbly.

Priest Wood nodded. The temple has always been fair and will not easily interfere in the internal affairs of its subordinate countries, so it can guarantee its authority. He has been working with his assistant for many years. He admires the other party's insistence on justice and honor very much, but at this moment, he will never allow his assistant to interfere in Eruin's internal affairs and favor the princess.

Thinking of this, the chief priest couldn't help but look back in the direction of the city. Ampelsel is one of the largest cities in the south. The roofs connected back to the port extend to the horizon like anthills. The tallest building in the city is undoubtedly the temple of the Temple of Fire. The temple is looming in the mist. He couldn't help but think of what the little girl Magdale had mentioned to him, and couldn't help but shake his head.

That is impossible. The temple will not fall to either side no matter what, and the high priest cannot be so hasty.

It was at this time that the bell on the white lighthouse rang again. The chime of the big bronze bell made the ground nearby tremble. The sand and stones shook and could be heard dozens of miles away. Even half of the city could clearly hear it. . ⊥E Novel, www.exiaoSHUO.cOm⊥The bell signaled that a ship was entering the harbor. Wood and Icahn raised their heads and saw a sailboat with three large sails entering the harbor.

"It's a ship coming back from Lubik." Icahn saw the flag on the ship and recognized it immediately.

"At this time of year, the storm is about to block the southern channel. This should be the last ship coming back from Lubik this month. It's a little late. People who have been sailing on the sea all year round have fled here." Wood glanced at the ship and said, Couldn't help but sigh.

"Everyone in the world is blinded by money. Although wealth is important, it is not as valuable as life after all." Icahn also shook his head.

But this time the officiant did not agree. He just sighed using a famous joke of Hesse I, who was ridiculed as the "King of the Road" by Eruin in history: "Without wealth, how can there be life?" "

The two priests lamented the world on Beacon Hill, but the size of the Ampelsel Port Authority

The officials are not that easy-going. To be precise, these little people who are usually very busy are now almost in chaos.

Juno Anopalis is the scion of a noble family in the city of Ambedsel. Relying on his father's relationship, he finally got the position of deputy director of the Port Authority. However, he has only been in office for half a week. A piece of news that day almost made him immediately throw away the pointed helmet on his head and run away.

"What did you say? Palian, you bastard, what did I tell you yesterday - if you drink too much or make fun of me, I will definitely kick you out. I don't care who you are!" The unlucky young man almost roared at the communication crystal in his hand, only to avoid smashing the valuable thing out: "Do you think I am a fool!"

"No, I'm serious!" On the other side of the message crystal was Qiu Nuoan's friend. In Eruin's common words, he is a good brother who wears crotchless pants together and is also a noble. Although he is a bit unreliable, he drinks too much, plays with women during duty hours, gets into fights, and does almost everything that can be done on the dock. He made a mistake, but Junoan kept him here simply because the relationship between the two was indeed very good. But at this moment, this young man who usually did nothing seemed to have been greatly frightened, and said in a mournful tone: "Brother, I swear on the name of Lord Martha, I didn't lie to you, I really saw a Sea Demon Whale Of course, if the woman who claimed to have been a female pirate didn't lie to me last time, listen to me, that thing is exactly the same as the tattoo on her left butt... No, no, I want to say that thing on the sea now Much scarier..."

"Go to your mother's ass, don't mention that woman to me." Junoan couldn't even care about the last reserve of the nobles at this moment. Of course, the descendants of nobles of their generation had no reserve at all, especially in Ampelsel, a mixed bag of good and bad. This is especially true for young people who grew up in an environment where He tugged on his collar a little ferociously, but when he heard the other party swearing in the name of Martha, he felt uncertain for a while. Although he also understood that if possible, that lawless guy might even dare to fuck Lady Martha. Of course, this was just Just talking, Junoan is starting to feel a little at a loss now.

A sea monster whale prepares to attack the harbor. ?

Oh my god, does he live in some mythical era? Qiu Nuoan sat at his expensive mahogany desk and thought for a long time, and finally compiled the following three comprehensive plans: absconding with the money, absconding with the money, and absconding with the money.

But he immediately crumpled his head into a ball. If he did that, his old man would be the first to kill him. Junoan was born as lawless as his good brother. Even the king of Eruin was not afraid at all, but his true colors were immediately revealed in front of his old man. When he thought of his old man's angry appearance, his legs weakened first. Three points, I finally grabbed the communication crystal, swallowed for a long time, and said, "Brother, please wish yourself well. I will take the first step, but what I blurted out became: "Wait for me, I will be here soon!" "

The sailors were in a mess at the port, but someone on the sea was looking at Ampelser from afar, feeling very helpless in his heart.

"The port city of Ampelsel and its surrounding areas and towns have a population of 310,000. A huge magic system maintains the operation of the city. The sewage, lighting, water supply and domestic waste treatment are rare in the countryside south of Eruin. Mysterious magic can be seen everywhere here. Businessmen spend a lot of money to hire wizards to serve them. Some of these wizards have been working here for decades and have deep-rooted status. The wizards have formed a guild called "Ampere". "Eye of Thrir"

"This wizard organization not only maintains the daily operations of the city, but also intervenes in the security of the port, preventing adventurers from fighting, and setting up city mystery locks to prohibit outside wizards from casting spells in the city. They also set up a large air restriction in the inner city of Ampelsel. The magic circle protects the port from attacks from the sky.”

Brando stood on the side of the ship, introduced this place to others, and suddenly sighed. He turned around, with a helpless look in his eyes that was almost desperate, and finally saw the legendary monster, the king of sea beasts, the sea monster whale as huge as mountains and rivers waving towards them like a naughty child. He shook the fish*, and then slowly dived into the deep sea.

"My old man said that the intelligence of the Sea Demon Whale is no less than that of an adult human. Now it seems that it is true." Captain James also saw this scene and couldn't help but sigh.

But Antitina looked at Brando in confusion and couldn't help but ask: "Lord, what exactly did you give those Nagas? I see how they look at you as if they are looking at their king. , they actually let the Sea Demonic Whale keep sending us into the port, how can we hide our identity now?"

"But I heard that the king of Naga is a woman... After a week of training, little Roman can now freely appear on the deck. As soon as she rolled her eyes, she was transformed into a Brandoni. .

Brando wiped his sweat. He didn't expect the Nagas to be so "hospitable." However, to be able to do such a thing as asking the Sea Demonic Whale to send them into the harbor, Brando felt that besides getting rid of Nir's stupid fish Besides, ordinary people really can't do such creative things.

He coughed and said in disbelief: "It depends on the situation. Anyway, the people in the port don't know that this big guy is following us, as long as we don't admit it."

After saying that, he looked at the young captain. James shrugged and replied: "My lord doesn't want to be famous, so naturally I won't overstep my authority. Don't worry about the people on my ship, lord." At this point, the young captain actually felt a little helpless: "To be honest, sir, are you here now?" The reputation among them is much higher than mine. Even if I don't tell them, they will keep it secret." What he said was naturally that Brando's two bottles of holy water had a miraculous effect. It can be said that the sailors on the entire ship are now aware of it. Brando, a kind and kind aristocratic man who has a sword master as his mentor, respects him like a god.
