Port Amparo.
It has been a while since the sea snake Viska attacked the port. The soaring waves and roaring sea snakes have long since become a thing of the past, but it is not so easy for the port to recover.
The dilapidated lighthouse on the coast, the wreckage of the ship floating on the sea, the damaged merchant ship, the old tavern that was almost submerged in sea sand, kelp and marine garbage... everything is showing the tragedy of the past, even the air seems to be There is a sense of bleakness.
By the pier, civilians with distressed expressions are holding long wooden poles and bending over to salvage the sampan fragments. On the ruins of the old tavern, the boss is moaning and cleaning up the sea sand and algae. On the farther beach, a few elderly people do not know When did you set up a simple altar and secretly sacrifice to the Lord of the Ocean, praying and repenting constantly...
I don't know when the sunset glow appeared on the horizon, and the magnificent color dyed half of the sky red.
Under the cover of the sunset, everything seemed to be stained with a layer of blood-like red light, just like the oil paintings displayed in the window, with strong colors, but more shocking.
Suddenly.
A rush of horseshoes broke the silence of the port.
The civilians by the pier subconsciously turned their heads and looked over, only to see a group of knights in armor and bright clothes galloping towards them on horseback. The sound of rumbling horseshoes made the ground tremble slightly.
Behind the knights was a luxurious carriage wrapped in gold leaf.
Under the whip waving wildly by the coachman, the speed of the carriage has been raised to the limit, and even the body of the carriage has been a little bumpy and unstable. The people in the carriage didn't think they were going fast enough, and they kept urging them.
The fast-rotating huge wheels ran over the black rocky ground that hadn't been cleaned up, and the mud and sand on the ground were swept everywhere, even the glass windows on both sides of the carriage were splashed a lot.
The civilians on the side of the road had no time to dodge, and were splashed all over their heads and faces by the sand, but they still dared not speak out.
Because, there is a golden family emblem imprinted on this carriage.
The family emblem belongs to the lord of this place, Viscount Taylor.
"It's the lord! Quick! Put your things away!"
Seeing this, the old people on the beach quickly got up from the ground and started packing their things in a hurry. In the rush, he didn't even bother to overturn the offering bowl on the table.
The faces of the civilians who cleaned up the sand and salvaged the driftwood on the pier changed, and hurriedly picked up the salvage tools and scrambled to avoid the galloping horseshoes. A few of them ran a little slower, almost being bumped head-on by the galloping horses, and cold sweat immediately soaked the linen robes.
In the midst of chaos, the knights and carriages stopped quickly on the pier.
The knights hurriedly got off their horses, and a person quickly got out of the carriage.
This man was about 30 to 40 years old, wearing a dark red aristocratic uniform, his round belly almost tore the clothes, and there were two black and shiny mustaches on his lips, his face was fat and greasy.
This middle-aged man is the lord of Port Amplo, Viscount Taylor.
Because he got out of the car too hastily, Viscount Taylor's clothes were a little messy, and even the hair that should have been combed meticulously was curled up, but he didn't care about tidying up at all, and hurriedly told the old housekeeper beside him: "Master Earl will be here soon, you should keep an eye on it, so you don't make any mistakes."
"Master, don't worry." The old housekeeper looked confident, "The supplies prepared by the old servant are the best, and the dishes for dinner have been prepared since this morning. Everything is meticulous, and the storage makes the earl feel Your sincerity and heart."
Viscount Taylor heaved a sigh of relief.
With the help of his servants, he tidied up his clothes and accessories. He took a deep breath, and the anxiety and excitement on his face slowly subsided, trying to squeeze out a warm yet respectful smile.
Ever since he received the news that the new earl was coming to Port Amplo for supplies, he knew that his chance had finally come.
As the lord of Port Ampro, his source of income is naturally not just seafood and taxes. The caravans at sea are his biggest source of income.
But since the former Earl Raymond passed away and he lost his backer, business has become difficult. There are also many nobles in the Thorn collar who are jealous of his business. These days, there are always people who trip him overtly and secretly.
If he couldn't find a strong backer, his exclusive business might not be able to keep.
He has been in a state of anxiety for the past two days, but Earl Black, the only one who has the ability to protect him, has no response to the post he sent.
Unexpectedly, my lord bless, at this critical moment, he actually received the news that Earl Black was coming to Port Amplo for supplies!
Is there any more exciting news in the world than this?
As long as Earl Black came, he was confident that he would agree to protect him. He now holds a trump card in his hand, and he is not afraid that Earl Black will not be tempted.
And the new Earl Black is backed by the Principality of St. Violet and the Holy See of Light, and his background is unfathomable. As long as he can take advantage of this opportunity to get close to him, not only can he keep his business, but there are also countless other benefits.
Viscount Taylor seemed to see a broad avenue covered with gold and gemstones slowly rolling out in front of him, and he couldn't help rubbing his hands in anticipation.
at this time.
Suddenly, a stream of light galloped over the devastated harbor.
The stream of light was as fast as a shooting star, but in just a moment it had already soared from the horizon to the sky above the harbor, turned into a huge object suspended in the sky, and began to slowly descend.
Against the sun, this behemoth was submerged in a bright light and shadow, the edges were blurred, only the huge shadow cast on the pier was particularly clear.
Viscount Taylor looked up subconsciously, and then his eyes widened in shock.
I saw that the huge monster hanging above his head looked like a huge ball studded with crystals. Under the sunlight, the surface of the ball refracted brilliant colored light, just like a super-sized gemstone.
With its arrival, the huge wind pressure whizzed down, and there were waves on the sea.
Waves of waves came from the sea, and the flying waves slapped the pier, rolling up countless snow-white droplets. Even the flag planted on the port was swayed wildly by the strong wind.
"Gang, the Great Mage Tower of Master Gunter?"
Viscount Taylor swallowed, with a shocked expression on his plump face, as if he had seen an undead in broad daylight.
Master Gunter has been settled in Gru Town for so long, even the nobles who have no news have already known the news, let alone Viscount Taylor who is determined to catch up with the new Earl? What's more, the shape of Master Gunter's Grand Master Tower is unique. There is no other semicolon, so there is no reason why he can't recognize it?
He never expected that when he came to the pier to wait for Earl Black, he actually waited for Master Gaunt's Grand Wizard Tower! This, this is simply a good thing that the pie in the sky~
He, Tyler Emerson, was about to turn his luck!
"Master, Master Gunter is a big man who can't even be invited." At this time, the old butler also reacted, his eyes lit up with excitement, "If the reception is complete, and the master is happy, maybe he will agree to make it for you. Magic equipped."
"It's up to you to say." Viscount Taylor took a deep breath, and even his energy was lifted, "Let's go and meet the distinguished guest."
As he spoke, he straightened his collar and walked towards the edge of the pier in a daze against the huge wind pressure. Under the strong wind, his fat cheeks were almost blown out of shape, but he didn't care, his eyes still showed excitement.
At this time, the Great Mage Tower had already descended from the sky, stretched out eight huge mechanical legs, and firmly supported the Great Mage Tower on the sea surface at the edge of the port.
Although most of the civilians around didn't know what this behemoth was, out of the simplest philosophy of life among the low-level civilians, they had already left the wharf, the center of the whirlpool, with their own guys on their shoulders. Only a few were curious but not afraid. The dead secretly hid in the corner and watched.
Under the curious or excited crowd watching, the gate at the bottom of the Great Mage Tower slowly slid open to both sides, and several figures came out from inside.
Viscount Taylor's eyes quickly flicked across everyone's faces, and when he saw the blond Blake and the unshaven Jimmy, his eyes lit up, and he went straight to meet them.
"Good day, Lord Black."
He first gave a noble salute to Blake politely, and then turned to Jimmy Gunter next to him.
"Good day, Master Gaunt. Good day, friends."
His attitude was respectful without losing his demeanor. After greeting the two of them, he didn't even forget to greet Wu Hui and the others next to him. His etiquette was impeccable.
After all, in his eyes, it is not easy to get in touch with these two people, and it is always right to flatter them.
"You are... the lord of Port Amparo, Viscount Taylor?"
Blake greeted him casually.
Viscount Taylor, as a lower-level nobleman in the Thorn Territory, was Black's vassal in name—the kind of direct subordinate who could let the opponent lead troops to join his army when the war started.
It is a tradition and an obligation for the lower nobles to serve the upper nobles in the Light Plane for tens of thousands of years, so it is not surprising that Black will see Viscount Taylor at the pier.
Daniel, Liliana and the others were obviously used to this kind of thing, and put on airs skillfully. Only Jimmy still looked impatient, and he didn't mean to talk to Viscount Taylor at all.
Wu Hui glanced at it, then looked away without interest, and idly shrank behind a few people.
Coincidentally, he just passed down the oracle yesterday, asking the Holy See to find clues to the Heart of the Earth, and it turned out that there were clues right away. This clue actually came from Jimmy, a master alchemist.
To be honest, when he heard the news from the Holy Maiden of Light yesterday, he was really taken aback.
The heart of the earth is formed by the condensed essence of the earth, and it is one of the five origin stones of the universe. There are not a few pieces in the entire light plane. However, the gods are self-deprecating, as one of the five origin stones, the heart of the earth does not emit obvious fluctuations like the stone of fortune, but looks like an ordinary stone without magical fluctuations, which mortals cannot distinguish.
Only a god like Wu Hui can see the essence through the phenomenon and find it out of countless ordinary stones.
As long as he can find the heart of the earth, Wu Hui's strength will undergo an earth-shaking change. For a while, his heart is a little hot.
