Magic Tower Starry Sky
Chapter 535: second night
Perhaps most of the nobles are idle all day long, but Abadan City is a military-controlled city after all, in addition to government affairs, there are also military affairs that need to be dealt with every day. Therefore, the nobles who hold official positions in the city, especially those with military status, are still quite disciplined and arrive at the office at the same time.
Then after everyone met, they found a similar situation, everyone's faces were not very good-looking.
If it is normal, a few words of ridicule are indispensable, laughing at whether the other party has been tossing on the mistress's bed all night. But this time, no one has the spirit to say such bullshit.
However, the fact that he was being targeted was not something worth publicizing. Even whether it was done by the political opponents around him or not, there is still no conclusion, who would dare to speak out easily.
What should be done now is to step up investigation of all possibilities and find out who the enemy is hiding in the dark.
Although it is written in the text of the curse used to warn people, it is about the airship Sid. But few believed that the goblins or barbarians associated with the Cid could do such a thing. Nine times out of ten it is an excuse used by political opponents to mislead people. And the reason why he brought up this matter was probably because he wanted to use the missing terrifying weapon to attract the attention of others.
Even so, the nobles still found a familiar magician to carefully check the words of the curse. You must know that the biggest difference between a curse and ordinary magic is that the strength of the curse depends on the will of the caster. Conventional magic methods are only used to enhance the effectiveness of the curse. Ordinary people who suffer and hate deeply may also break out curses that even great magicians find troublesome. That's why there are so many cursed and inexplicable 'strange things' in the Lost Land.
Fortunately, in the middle of the night, there was no power in the words left by the unknown person, it was almost like someone cursing the street.
Except for those gathered for government affairs, although the aristocratic banquet originally scheduled to be held today was held as scheduled, all those who received the invitation letter also participated as usual. But the atmosphere at the banquet was different from usual, the oppressive atmosphere was everywhere from top to bottom.
From the waiter passing through the crowd to the host of the banquet who should be the focus of attention, today, they all look at the people around them with sharp or fearful eyes.
The nobles were sitting on pins and needles, and their subordinates couldn't relax much. A group of people made open and unannounced visits and made the city of Abadan into a mess. They even wanted to find the Thieves Guild to get news, but unfortunately those capable people have disappeared, and the rest of them are busy grabbing territory, which is useless at all.
In this way, everyone spent the first day like headless chickens. Before going to sleep, not only the number of guards has been strengthened. There are even those who are afraid of death and ask his subordinates to stand in a circle beside the bed. I just hope I can sleep well tonight.
But such an extravagant wish could not be easily realized.
The same piercing sound as yesterday, the same warning text, and even the situation showed signs of escalation. This is actually a simpler and more threatening approach that Lin, Fen, and Xieqie discussed after their first day of experience. Like a pre-made hand model, add a bucket of red ink, and then print it in someone else's room.
And those who set up a human wall next to the bed directly asked the Lich to take action and violently crack the other party's methods.
The method is also very simple, that is, to hide his appearance first, flash in the past, imprison him forever, and then pull out all the weapons of the guards under the watchful eyes of everyone, and use them to nail the curse words on the wall. The imprisoned people were forced to stand until dawn, until they were hysterically kicked and insulted by the mad nobles before they could recover from the frozen state.
The turbulence of the second day was worse than that of the first day. Even when he was on guard, he still couldn't stop the assassin's greetings. What if the next day he was no longer just nailing paper, but directly demanding his life. How could noble gentlemen accept such a silent threat.
Almost all the people who could be sent out to investigate the news were sent out. And the noble gentlemen no longer have the energy to pretend that nothing happened. Almost everyone chose to stay behind closed doors, and even the scheduled banquets were cancelled. The upper class of Abadan City seems to have come to a standstill. Affecting the entire city in turn, filled with a tense atmosphere of imminent rain.
Since the people above gave the order to die, it is inevitable that the people who are doing things below will show their whereabouts inadvertently. When other people find out that someone is investigating similar things, of course, they approach them cautiously.
When they met, they realized they were old acquaintances. Ask again, and everyone feels bad. It seems that in the city of Abadan, no matter whether it is a big noble or a small noble, they all received the same threat.
The biggest reason why the number advantage can be relied on is that the opponent cannot easily deal with such a large number of enemies, so they can only choose to retreat or surrender. But if the number advantage is not there, and they are threatened in this way, then they have to notify their respective masters to deal with it.
At first, everyone regarded this threat as a very bad joke. What the nobles want is to find each other, and then give the other party unimaginable punishment. Even if you can't do it yourself, there are always more powerful nobles in Abadan City who can do it.
But when everyone is targeted at the same time, and their lives are actually threatened, the nature of the matter is completely different. Because this means that the person hiding in the dark can clean up all the dignified people in the city of Abadan in one go.
If you are safe, it is necessary to say some words of sympathy, so that others feel that they are on the same side as them. The most ideal situation is that after others suffer losses, you can pick up the bargain. But when he was already in danger, no one could maintain the same calmness.
Even General Javid Poole, the top administrator of Abadan City, is the same. Having the power to command the Tenth Army did not give him any sense of security.
Amid layers of security, all the nobles gathered in the City Lord's Mansion to discuss the immediate predicament. Even if it was getting late, no one wanted to go back; even if they did go back, no one would be able to sleep. When everyone collected the cursed papers and saw that they were all talking about the same thing, they couldn't help but wonder if this was really the reason why everyone offended that one.
"The Cid." An unknown sigh made the nobles all look at Viscount Niah who was accompanying him at the end.
The origin of related matters is not clear to everyone. It was because his second son found trouble with a group of savages, and then he was severely punished. But the ability displayed by that sword was too disgusting, and it disappeared afterwards, so everyone agreed to force the original holder to come forward.
Regardless of whether the sword is in the opponent's hand or not, one must first determine what the source of that disgusting ability is, and then try to prevent or avoid it. The most ideal situation is to hold that weapon in your own hands.
As for the rumor that the sword was a box cut, a legendary weapon, this was automatically ignored by all the nobles. Although box cuts are rare, every empire has one or two in their collection. It is right to choose the master, even nobles who understand the essence of the box cut are unwilling to own such a legendary weapon. But I haven't heard that the box can speak, it must be some other kind of magic effect that everyone doesn't know. That's why I had to find out from the original owner.
But where the savages went, no one knows. The only clue is the goblin who used to be active in Abadan City, the owner of the airship Totokani. According to the manager of the airport, the goblin did not drive his original airship Hindenburg, but came with another airship with a strange shape but extremely slow speed, the Sid.
Then if you want to find this group of people, you can only start with the airship. And the method is just a few tricks, restricting the other party from the ground, prohibiting the other party from trading and supplying, and the third is to arrest the ship. However, for the arrest of the ship, a convincing reason must be found, and it is not possible to do it recklessly if you want to.
Nobility. I only know that the reckless ones are all stupid young people who only want to cause trouble. Anyone with a bit of skill would not first get himself a fig leaf to cover up his true intentions. If it takes a few more days to arrange, the reason for arresting the ship can also be found. But before that, cut off the possibility of the opponent's supply and maintenance, so that they can't leave.
All of the above, in fact, the administrators in Abadan City did not say whether it is possible or not, they just acquiesced in such behavior. The executor will naturally have other people do it for him.
Unexpectedly, he just nodded silently, pointing out a big trouble for himself. It would be a lie to say that General Javed Poole had no grievances in his heart. The people at the bottom are ineffective and have gotten out of control, and he is required to come forward to deal with the aftermath. Is there any officer in the empire who is more troublesome than him?
Ignoring everyone's one sentence, none of which hurt Viscount Niah, General Javid Poole said: "Viscount, Viscount Niah!──" knocked on the table to stop others from continuing to speak, "──In short, this This matter was caused by your son. Find a way to settle it for me. I only give you two days, two days, do you understand clearly. If you can't deal with the person who caused all this, I will deal with you! clear!"
The general shifted his gaze to the other side as if he hadn't seen anything, and the people sitting and standing there were all non-commissioned officers. Among them, the last seat in the first row was Bailey Niah, the eldest son of the Viscount, a young man whom he was very optimistic about.
However, being implicated by his younger brother, Aka Nia, Berry Nia not only buried the warriors of the empire, but also buried another knight he admired, Farzad, who was expected to hit the extraordinary realm .
So today's ultimatum~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is not only for his father, but also for this young man with a promising future. He had to make some achievements to give himself a reason to regain his confidence in him.
It's just that at this moment, a timid nobleman asked weakly, "Give them two days? Then, my lord, what are we going to do tonight?"
Being asked such a question gave Javed Poole a headache. No one can guarantee whether the other party will not come tonight; or whether he can find a way to defend in time and sleep soundly. If all this is not resolved, it will have to endure another night of "warm" greetings from the other party. What if the other party has a brain twitch and doesn't want to spend another night? So what if he just killed the sleeping person?
Thinking of this, he shuddered, and Javed Poole said directly: "I'm going to inspect the barracks tonight. The first battalion is ready to respond, I understand."
"Yes, my lord."
All the nobles cried out and begged to follow. It was as if that smelly and dirty place was a paradise in reality.
