Dominate the Treacherous Realm

　　 But this can easily cause problems in the brain. Jenkins's ability can only maintain life or accelerate growth. For organs with extremely fine structures such as the human brain, there is of course a therapeutic effect, but it is difficult to say whether it can be restored to its original state.

　　 "Since His Majesty's life is dying, the fight for the throne has reached a feverish level?"

　　 Jenkins concluded.

"Yes, and it suddenly entered the white-hot stage. Before that, the body of Salhi II was very healthy, healthier than some young people. No one would have thought that this kind of thing would happen suddenly. I think, Stuart The children at home originally planned to prepare for a long battle, and even planned to live longer with their father than anyone else."

　　 Dolores said so.

　　 Normal people have strange things in their heads, which are basically hopeless in this era. The many strange magics, spells and rituals of the gifters, of course, have the possibility of curing various strange diseases, but Jenkins has never heard of it anyway, and no one dares to say for certain parts of the brain. Can be cured.

　　 Even if Salsi II can find a similar ceremony, he may not be able to afford a sufficient price. Most of the abilities or rituals of the gifter are not completely harmless, but for the transcendent, the harm is almost negligible.

　　Especially when it comes to curing diseases, the most ideal method is to offer sacrifices to unknown existences, and then the equivalent exchange of alchemists, but no matter which method is used, it is very dangerous.

　　 As for seeking help from the Orthodox Church, it is even more impossible. Don't look at Jenkins who can apply for numbered items from the Church of the Sages at will, and bring them to areas outside the church for use, but in fact, the church takes a very cautious attitude in accepting any numbered items. Even the category with the lowest level of danger is not arbitrarily used.

　　 Not to mention, according to the "Tower Agreement", the Orthodox Church will not provide any help to the royal family members that may increase their lifespan. Even if His Majesty the Kingdom asks the pastor of the [Church of Everything and Nature] in a remote town to help treat a cold, he will never get the pastor's consent.

　　 Therefore, it is conceivable that the Kingdom of Hampawo may not be peaceful in the past six months. In addition, the two kingdoms of the same scale have also experienced various troubles and internal and external troubles. It can be said that now the entire material world is going to be in chaos.

"Therefore, the Church of the Sage hints that you approach Dolores in an open identity. It is not without reason. Although the Church of Orthodox God will not intervene in the election and succession to the throne, once there are unexpected troubles due to the throne battle-Estu It's hard to tell what happened to the children of the Yate family, at least the church can find a reasonable reason to intervene in the throne fight."

　　 Alexia continued. As for the unexpected troubles she said, it should refer to the disaster caused by mortals rushing into contact with the transcendent because of their greedy ambitions.

　　PS: For the readers who saw this for the second time, please refresh the catalog. I added more than 200 words in the second half. The content added ranges from "as for seeking help from the Orthodox Church" to "the consent of the pastor."

Chapter 1205 The first thousand eighty-five chapters of the disaster of the Ice and Snow Festival (beginning)

　　 Because of greed and desire, mortals rashly contact the transcendence and cause disasters. This happened around Nolan and Jenkins. Now when it comes to succession to the throne, anything can happen.

　　 Thinking of this, Jenkins couldn't help sighing, and then looked out the window. Now the carriage has entered the city, because the temperature has not yet risen to a high enough temperature, so the snow from yesterday has covered the ground, as if to pull the city back to winter overnight.

　　 But the good mood of people celebrating the festival has not been destroyed. On the contrary, because the snow has more stimulated the love of the citizens for the ice and snow festival, they think this is an excellent omen.

　　 "I don't know until now, what exactly is the Snow Festival to celebrate?"

　　 In order to dispel the bad mood, Jenkins changed the subject in due course.

"Although there must be a reason for the festival, the information I can find shows that the festival has existed locally since at least the 13th era. Although the name was not this at the time, the modern ice and snow festival is undoubtedly owned by the aborigines in the northern part of the mainland. The continuation of the traditional festival. No one can explain the origin of this festival, but this festival is quite old, older than the truest history recorded by the church."

"Oh? Is that true? The birth of most festivals in human civilization is related to the natural phenomena of gods or god-like ones. Since this is an ice and snow festival, it may be related to the powerful ice and snow creatures of ancient times, or ancient times. The aboriginal people believe in gods with the priesthood of [ice and snow] or supernatural or deceitful things with similar power."

　　 He paused, and then discovered that none of the pseudo-gods with the [Ice and Snow] clergy was related to the Ice and Snow Festival. If such an important festival is really related to a certain god, Jenkins could not have heard of it.

　　 "The great priesthood system of the righteous **** [Nature Spirit] includes [Four Seasons]. If you divide it in detail, the [Winter] priesthood should also belong to this great one."

　　 Alexia reminded, but [Ice and Snow Festival] cannot be a festival related to the righteous **** [Nature Spirit], otherwise Jenkins, who is a member of the Orthodox Church, has no reason not to know.

　　 "This is very interesting. The festivals from the long past that are not clearly pointed to can continue to this day and have the same core meaning (to celebrate the ice and snow). It is not normal in itself. There must be something strange in it."

"Don’t think so much, Jenkins. In fact, festivals like [Ice and Snow Festival] that cannot be found are not uncommon in human society, but [Ice and Snow Festival] is the most famous. Don’t think about it so much. Today we are To celebrate, isn’t it? It’s hard for you to show up in Luen publicly. I don’t think there is any need to waste time in strange places."

　　 The short lady said so, Jenkins nodded immediately, fondled the sleepy cat on his knees, and temporarily left the matter behind.

After entering the city, I did not see Dolores at the agreed club. Later I received a letter from Julia, knowing that Dolores was asked by her father to attend the opening ceremony of the Ice and Snow Festival with him and could only get out this afternoon. .

　　 Jenkins naturally doesn't matter, but Alexia seems very happy.

　　 The opening of the festival As usual, the king will give a public speech in front of the House Square. This is also one of the few times in the year when King Salsi II appears in front of the public, except for the speech at the end of the year.

　　 If Dolores is with him, Jenkins doesn't mind going in, but since Dolores is not there, there is no reason for him to do such boring things.

　　 "So, do you have time to buy clothes with me? It's spring, and I was in a hurry when I came to Luen, but I didn't have enough clothes."

　　 Alexia asked with a smile, Jenkins thought for a while and thought it would be more interesting than listening to the lecture, so he agreed.

　　 said it was buying clothes, but it didn’t take long. Alexia bought a scarf symbolically, and asked Jenkins to buy some cold pine cones that are unique to the north to bring to Nolan's friends, and then took Jenkins to stroll around the city.

　　 Jenkins is worried about whether the pine cones can escape the claws of the chocolate before they go home.

　　 The sudden drop in temperature caused people to wear their bloated winter clothes, which made the already crowded streets more crowded.

　　 The wax museum in the southern part of the city is open for free today, and Jenkins and Alexia will stop there when lunch is about to come. Because Jenkins inadvertently said that "wax figures are much more beautiful than ice sculptures", the old curator with a beard longer than Bishop Parrod warmly entertained them and opened the pavilion that was not open today.

　　 "Look, the wax figure of the cat here is really amazing, just like the real thing."

　　 Jenkins stretched his head and commented, and the chocolate on his shoulder showed a disdainful expression. Alexia chuckled, of course she knew the complicated relationship between chocolate and Jenkins.

　　 "I thought you would focus on the guo/female wax figure next to the cat. It's you, Jenkins."

　　 "That kind of offensive thing, what's worth paying attention to?"

　　 Jenkins believes that most of the wax figures in this pavilion have no clothes, which is the reason why the pavilion is not open frequently. Alexia holds the opposite opinion, because the curator just said that the wax figures here are all the works of a master, and the artist's creative style is such that it does not pay attention to clothing but natural beauty.

　　 Jenkins, who is not highly skilled in art, wanted to refute this sentence very superficially in his heart. Then, suddenly, he looked at the wall beside him, and Alexia also turned his head in doubt and looked in that direction.

　　 "Is it an illusion? I heard screams and messy footsteps? There was a riot outside?"

　　 "I heard it too."

　　 Alexia said hesitantly, then raised his hand and wiped his eyes, bright blue eyes, as if to look further away.

　　 "Something happened in the city, it seems to be in the center of the city. There...Is the Salcy II’s speech over?"

　　 Whether or not Salcy II’s speech is over, Jenkins doesn’t know, but at least he can tell the sound of the steam cannon. Compared with ordinary gunpowder shells, the steam gun uses steam as the initial thrust, which greatly improves the range and accuracy. However, it also makes the brass-colored steam gun with mechanical beauty easily impossible to move. Except for the locomotive driven by the most powerful steam engine, it must be fixed in one place even after assembly.

　　 It is well known that there can be no railroad tracks in the city center.

Chapter 1206 The first thousand and eighty-sixth chapter steam cannon

　　 Because they are close to the window, Jenkins and Alexia can quickly get outside from the wax museum. At the same time as hearing that sound like the end of the day, the people running in the street and Jenkins looked up to the sky together, and saw two fireballs trailing the tail of flames in the sky under the northern clouds. Flew into the sky at a tilt of about 70 degrees.

　　 This is an era when the steam industry is extremely developed, and the development of steam power is even stronger than the world in Jenkin's memory. In his original world, the development of the steam industry stopped abruptly because of the emergence of electricity, but the steam power in this world has never stopped running along a road.

　　 Some things that seem incredible to Jenkins, such as ultra-high-power steam ovens, experimental portable steam rifles, steam-cooled heavy machine guns, etc., have all appeared. Therefore, after the blessing of this artistic steam industry, the destructive power of some weapons is far stronger than the steam thrust weapons in Jenkin’s memory world.

　　 At this moment, the citizens who were agitated by the loud noise of the cannonballs just raised their heads, and the gorgeous fireball was seen by most of the citizens and tourists in Luen.

　　 Everyone admits that at this moment, this picture is so beautiful. Above the old city is a clouded sky, and the snow-covered city still has the characteristic brass reflection of the steam age. The fireball was still in the sky, like two suns at this gloomy noon, but the next moment, they fell.

　　 boom~

　　 Even though Jenkins was ready, he was taken aback by the huge sound that shook his heart and the aftermath of the explosion like a mushroom cloud in the city center (Note). The ground was shaking, and the snow on the eaves slid down due to the violent vibration and fell on the cat's head, which made the cat scream.

　　 Many people on the street were so frightened that they fell. Even though it was far from the center of the explosion, the loud noise of the explosion caused cracks on many low-quality glass.

Jenkins just turned around and hugged Alexia subconsciously just now, trying to protect her. The short lady smiled happily in his arms, and didn’t care whether the meowing cat was deliberately miserable or was really caught. scared.

　　 The explosion of the two steam cannons silenced the city for a few seconds, and then screams and riots came from all directions. Everyone wants to escape subconsciously, but they don't know where to go. Someone wanted to rush to the window of the wax museum behind Jenkins and Alexia, but Alexia who was holding Jenkins stared at him, and immediately turned and fled in the opposite direction.

　　 Just the casualties caused by the riots after the two shells ended is enough to make today's matter one of the biggest news in the material world this year. It is comparable to Nolan's city-wide poisoning incident. But the difference is that Ruen's thing is true, and the so-called poisoning of the whole city is to cover up other facts.

　　The direction of the shell's drop point is the direction of the House Square in the city center, where Dolores and Julia are. Although there was a riot before the cannons exploded, indicating that people were not attacked suddenly, the situation is still dangerous.

　　 There is no time to think about why the steam cannon appeared in the city. Jenkins took Alexia and ran directly to that side.

　　 The closer to the point where the shells fall, the more chaos and miserable conditions can be seen. The riots and minor earthquakes caused by the explosion in the city turned this beautiful festival into a good day for the citizens. The rushing people and a small number of houses that collapsed due to old age swept away the joy of the Ice and Snow Festival.

　　 When Jenkins and Alexia turned into Queen Mary Avenue, which was only one street away from the House, there were almost no people in sight on the street.

　　 The snow was still falling, and the snowflakes swirled down into the ruins of the house. The second shell landed directly in the middle of the street, leaving half of the street in ruins. In this ruin, a man carrying a broad sword stood there looking at Jenkins and Alexia.

　　 The wind blew his robe, his sharp eyes seemed to ignite everything he saw:

　　 "No traffic here. If you don't want to cause trouble, please turn around and leave immediately."

　　 After speaking in a hoarse voice, he waved his right hand to signal the two of them to leave. Jenkins took a step forward without saying a word, but was stopped by Alexia.

　　 The plain hand was held empty, the silver-blue light surrounded the woman, thousands of brilliance overflowed from the body, like a neat row of silver needles growing out of the snake.

　　 "Ha~"

　　 The man holding the sword turned his wrist and changed from holding the sword to holding the sword. Slightly bent his legs to press down on the center of gravity, holding the sword in both hands, slashing out a sword with a loud shout.

　　 Dozens of gray sharp sword shadows broke through the ground and flew out, thousands of silver-blue brilliance came from the front. The energy strike once again made the ruins more broken, and after the aroused smoke and snowflakes, Jenkins in a formal suit jumped into the sky, and a black phantom appeared behind him, with the strange sound of wild laughter and dripping~ In the middle, pulled out the black afterimage and bumped into the man who had just recruited.

　　 "It's useless, no one wants to pass here!"

　　 He gripped his epee tightly and swung a sword at the [Twin Devil], and the black flame of the twin demon that was detonated in advance blew up in all directions. After the flame, the young man appeared with a white long sword.

　　锵~

　　 The epee and the thin sword intersect, and the thin sword slashes the epee and the man into two diagonally. The rapier retracted the sword and turned around, so that the gushing black blood would not splash on his face.

　　 "Strange, it's actually a level 5 gifter, and all the bubbles are filled with the level 5, which force has such a big hand?"

　　 The corpse split into two pieces behind him, the blood stained the snow, and the snow reflected the sky. In the smoke and dust of the explosion, Alexia walked up with the blue cube, and the dense runes in his eyes flashed quickly.

"The divination has been disturbed, and now I can’t see the exact information. He was hired at a high price, and I can’t see the organization that hired him... Dolores and Julia are fine for the time being, we Speed ​​up."

　　 "Okay, I want to see who is so bold."

　　 Jenkins turned and looked at the corpse behind him, reaching out his hand and a cluster of flames flew out. The burning corpse reflected the red face of Jenkins. He looked up to the top of the spire of the House not far away. The sound of gunshots and shouts were faintly visible along with the sound of the wind.

　　 "Let's pretend it, now there is no need to let others know what kind of supporters Dolores has."

　　 Jenkins whispered, like the cat on his shoulder, it was almost distorted into a mosaic in an instant. Hundreds of images flashed quickly in an instant, and the virtual color blocks even distorted the light in the space where Jenkins and the cat stood.

　　PS: The mushroom cloud here is mainly steam. It is water vapor that evaporates due to overheating after the steam cannon is used. It is not the kind that is triggered by the powerful power of the cannonball after it explodes.

　　 Although the expansion piece (1) (2) (3) has not been updated for a long time, but (4) the author has been updating it. I don't know if you have noticed it.

Chapter 1207 Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Seven Second Opponent

　　 When the figures of Jenkins and the cat stabilized, the same young but plain-looking man and the big tabby cat appeared in front of Alexia.

Alexia smiled, stretched out her right hand and nodded her eyebrows, like a transparent liquid covering her whole body, she quickly became taller, her hair became shorter and changed color, her face narrowed and elongated, and she became unrecognizable. Young woman.

　　 The two nodded each other, and Jenkins took a sword and took the lead to walk towards the center of the city full of smoke. Alexia followed closely, and the blue Rubik's Cube flew upward, printing a circle of runes on the edge of Jenkins' black robe.

　　 The matter was more serious than Jenkins had imagined. After approaching the drop point of the two artillery shells, no one standing was seen at all. The remains of the corpse and the remains of the building are mixed together, and it is only occasionally found that the lucky ones are unconscious, but that is only a very small number.

　　 The city center was originally the most lively location of the Ice and Snow Festival. The tourists and citizens gathered in this area before the shells landed may exceed four digits. Most of the police forces Ruen maintained order were also here, and everything was eroded after the two shots.

　　Due to political influence and other reasons, cities like Nolan can put churches in the city center, but the kingdoms of the country do not. Therefore, even within a short period of time, there is no organization to maintain order in the city center. I can only hope that the garrison outside the city or the church on the edge of the city will respond as soon as possible and send more people.

　　 There is one street away from the city hall. Looking around, Jenkins waved Alexia to stop. The sound of the wind engulfed snowflakes and deep and dense prayers into the ears. The sound was orderly but extremely low. Hundreds of whispers were mixed together, like a call from the abyss.

　　 "Someone is organizing a large-scale ceremony!"

　　 Alexia made a judgment for the first time, but at that time, the two of them raised their heads together and looked at only half of the three-story building not far away.

　　 The quality of this house is quite good. Although the left half was crushed by the collapsed club on the opposite side, the right side still stood strong there.

　　 A woman wearing a veil stood on the roof of a dilapidated house. Frost continued to spread from her feet to the entire building. The frosty white lines made subtle changes in the nearby temperature.

"Is it a church member or a kingdom member? The response speed is really fast. I thought it would take at least 20 minutes to see the gifted person who came to support. But it's okay. I can't wait to wait here, hope. Your strength is worthy of the rewards paid by those who hired me."

　　 Her accent is even stranger than that of Jenkins, who is a foreigner, and she knows that Hampavo is not her mother tongue. And this woman did have the capital to be proud. Jenkins saw that this was a level 6 bestower, one level higher than the one just now.

　　 "Wind!"

　　 Alexia raised her white right hand, and when Jenkins was observing the skin on the back of her hand, a sudden gust of unknown origin blew up the dust on the ground and the snow in the sky.

　　 She held the silver-blue cube in her right hand, and slowly pushed forward as the spirit burst, and a cloud of blue light immediately flew out.

With a sound of 　　嘭~, the woman on the roof raised her hand to block, and the snow became a shield. Suddenly, the snowflakes flew freely, and the silver-blue light escaped everywhere like lightning. The woman had to raise her other hand to condense the shield again, but even so, her body still couldn't hold back to stop the light group that Alexia had exited.

　　 When she stopped, two long dents had been drawn on the ice on the roof.

　　 she retreated to the edge of the roof to completely dissolve the light that Alexia had pushed out. She realized that the person who came was not good, and stopped talking nonsense. The wrists of the two hands intersect, the index finger extends out, the other fingers shrink slightly, and the palms turn to make the petals bloom.

　　Ding~ding~ding~

　　 With successive soft sounds, hoarfrost flowers bloomed under the feet, and the flowers stretched out half of the floor of the roof, forming a huge frost flower in the space near the roof. The woman in the center of the flower held up her folded hands, and as the petals of the huge frost flower revolved in the air, white light beams carried the power of ice, shooting from the leaves and petals to Jenkins and Alexia.

　　 Jenkins took a step forward and swung his sword and shot down the first light, frowning slightly to see frost marks appearing on the sword. Turning his right wrist, the sword light flickered, and while the fire of the gift spread to the blade, the whole person was blocked in front of Alexia.

　　 The sword light left many afterimages in the air, and the dense beam of heavy machine gun bullets seemed to penetrate the two of them, but the sword swinging always intercepted the beam. Part of the cold light hit by the Bone Sword was extinguished by the flame, and part of it bounced back in all directions.

　　 When the first round of light beams ended, Jenkins gasped and thrust his sword into the ground. The two of them were already densely covered with ice thorns and frost holes, all of which were caused by the cold light that was pushed aside by the sword.

　　 This is Luen, and Jenkins does not want to use iconic abilities such as [Twin Devil] often.
