Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

As soon as Hobert opened the spiritual world, he saw a dark red wall of fire in the spiritual world, which forced him out of the spiritual world again.

But Alexie, who was wearing the traditional costume of the Fusac Empire, did not attack again.

The other party's intention is also very obvious. Before the war in the northern continent achieves a decisive victory, the Fusac Empire will also have room for the angel-level power of the Southern Balam Principality.

At the same time, hundreds of fireballs were falling towards the port. In a ball of flames in mid-air, a middle-aged man wearing a Fusac Empire military uniform, with medals hanging on his chest and a stern face appeared.

This is none other than the third angel of the Fusac Empire, Snarna Einhorn.

In this raid, the Fusac Empire dispatched all the angels and tried their best to blow Pulitzer Harbor into ruins.

They knew very well that as long as Loen lost this port, more than 70% of the colonies would be cut off from material support to the northern continent.

The remaining 30% is basically the link between the teleportation array and Loen and the colonies.

As for the angels of the Loen royal family, it took at least ten seconds to half a minute from getting the news to arriving at Pulitzer Harbor, which was enough for Snarna to raze Pulitzerport to the ground.

Alexei and Ahomatova just need to keep an eye on Hobert.

Hobert did not take it lightly because of the opponent's leeway. He immediately used the "Order Crystal" to prop up a black shield composed of "Power of Order", passed through the blood-red wall of fire, and disappeared into the spiritual world.

Alexie frowned as he looked at the black shield. This shield was not afraid of His flames! You must know that the flames summoned by him at this level can burn the essence! In other words, extraordinary abilities can be "burned"!

His spirituality felt that the level of the shield was very high, and the "Sword of War" he summoned could only be like the armor Hobert had just summoned. It could pierce, but it could not hurt Hobert. special.

Suddenly, Alexie seemed to feel something and looked in the direction of the port.

Just when the fireball summoned by Snarner was about to hit the ground and explode, it suddenly went out, leaving only a ball of heat hitting the ground, scalding several workers who had no time to escape.

At the same time, a majestic figure appeared in mid-air. He was sitting among swords, wearing a strange crown with rust and blood stains on his head, and holding a golden scepter.

"The Creator!" Alexie looked at the crown on the head of the majestic figure, and his pupils suddenly condensed: The out-of-control Fomunda was found and killed by the "Creator"?

The "Founder" waved his hand at the somewhat surprised Snarner, and the angel was immediately "twisted" to the battlefield on the sea.

The "founder" stood up from the throne and appeared between the battlefield and the port.

Alexie immediately said: "Try it once."

Although the strength of the "Creator" is unfathomable, he is not a true god after all. If they are three angels, they should be able to try to break through the defense of the "Creator" and send a fireball to Pulitzer Harbor.

At this time, there are at most one or two demigods in Pulitzer Port, and it only takes one angel-level fireball to blow the port into ruins.

Ahomatova used fog to obscure the sight of the "Builder", Alexey rushed in quickly, and Snarna prepared to bypass the battlefield and continue to attack the port.

Such a tactic requires no communication at all. With a glance from Alexei or even a subtle movement that is difficult for the enemy to detect, the two "weather warlocks" can clearly understand the emperor's intentions.

The "founder" raised his golden scepter, and a small sun seemed to suddenly appear in the night sky, illuminating the surrounding sea and dispersing the fog in front of him.

Alexie, who was charging forward, was immediately exposed, but he did not flinch. The long sword stained with blood and rust suddenly ignited with blood-red flames, stabbing the "creator".

The crown worn by the "Creator" suddenly glowed brightly, and a dark red sword with rust appeared in His hand, blocking Alexie's stab.

Phew~

Two long swords of the same shape collided and produced some white sparks. The "creator" waved his hand, and these white sparks suddenly grew larger in mid-air, connected together, and finally turned into an incandescent wall of fire, reflecting the sea surface. white.

Snarner was surrounded by a wall of fire and could not bypass the battlefield for a while.

Alexie stepped back and raised his hand to control the flames summoned by the "Creator", so as to entangle the "Creator" to create conditions for the other two.

At this moment, the white flame seemed to have encountered an accelerant and suddenly became all over the sky!

After the "Hunter"'s ability is "amplified", the effect of one plus one is greater than two!

One of these white flames fell on the sea and immediately made a "sizzling" sound. Theoretically, this white flame can burn everything! Even sea water can be "burned".

Phew~

A hurricane appeared in the sky, which first made the flames more intense. Then the hurricane rolled up all the flames, forming a white flame tornado connecting the sky and the sea.

Alexey worked hard to control the tornado to float to the distant sea. Ahomatova and Snarna, who had holes burned in their clothes, worked together in a tacit understanding to make fog appear on the sea again.

It's just that this time the fog swallowed up the Fusac Empire's fleet. When the fog dissipated, the fleet also disappeared with the fog.

In Alexie's opinion, retreating before the angels from the Loen Kingdom arrived was the best choice.

The "founder" just watched them retreat in an orderly manner and did not pursue them. After all, there was no need to fight to the death with the Fusac Empire.

The officers and soldiers of the Loen fleet on the sea looked at the light group in the air that looked like a small sun, and the white fire tornado that was getting smaller and smaller.

Then he looked at the majestic figure in the distance and the disappearing enemy.

Only then did they realize belatedly that they had won!

Among the cheers, some people loudly praised the "Creator", and some shouted "Long live the Creator!"

After the war in the northern continent began, the soldiers used the teleportation array and heard some inside information about the sneak attack on Saint Milon. More and more officers and soldiers knew about the deeds of the "founder".

So they recognized that it was this legendary god who was fighting in the sky today.

The "founder" in mid-air raised his hand slightly in response to the soldiers' praise. Then he glanced at William I, who was belatedly arriving, and disappeared into the real world.

This was the first time that William I saw the true image of the "Creator", which made him slightly stunned, because the Creator felt a bit like a god from the "Black Emperor" pathway!

…

Hiding in the shadows in a corner of the Pulitzer Harbor pier, a young man with a Southern Continent appearance suddenly said: "The extraordinary characteristics of the 'Conqueror' are actually in His hands!"

"His power is more solid and powerful than before!" Sauron opened a cut on the young man's cheek and said, "When He appeared in Backlund before, he looked a little unreal."

Last year, Hobert used Rafter of the Pound family to enter Backlund's ruins and took the "Red Priest" card from them.

Another bloody gash was opened on the young man's other cheek. Einhorn sighed: "In terms of extraordinary abilities, 'Hunter' and 'Lawyer' are the best partners."

Medici, who spoke first, sneered: "Are we qualified to be his partners?"

Sauron suggested: "Perhaps, we should go to Longwei Island or South Balam Principality to have a look."

Medici nodded: "You should definitely go and see it."

Einhorn asked solemnly: "Have you thought about it?"

"This may be our only chance." Medici said meaningfully.

…

When Hobert returned to Pulitzer Harbor from the spirit world, he immediately used the "tampering" method to jump into the air, and said to William I who was also in the air from a distance: "Your Majesty, there are three enemies here. Angel!"

We were promised one person, but three came. How to count the extra two?

William I, who was usually very indifferent, smiled while watching the fleet return: "The enemy is indeed too cunning."

Regarding the other party's pretense of confusion, Hobert said: "The 'Builder' said that the sea water in Pulitz Harbor is too deep, so it is difficult to defend. He plans to lower the water level of the port by 20 meters, so that it can be easier to deploy defenses. "

Of course it's easy to defend, but what if the enemy sneaks up on you when you're out of water?

William I continued with a smile: "The defense plan of the 'Builder' points out the key to this defensive battle, but it may affect the normal operation of the port. Should I ask the 'Builder' to change the plan?"

This probably means: Tell me, how should we count the other two?

"I just saw the campus of Pulitzer University and Bolton Machinery Company." Hobert said: "It is too dangerous for such a famous university and such an important enterprise to be here. Let's move to the South Balam Principality together."

William I readily agreed: "Okay."

Anyway, I have been sent to five universities, and this one is not missing.

As for Bolton Machinery Company, although it is a well-known domestic machinery manufacturing company, it holds a large number of patents, has some of the most advanced production lines, and has many cutting-edge R\u0026D talents. But compared with the help of an angel and a god, this benefit is not a big deal.

As for whether the company was willing to move, William I did not consider it at all.

From today on, three of the top ten universities in the world are in the Principality of South Balam, and six of the top ten universities in Loen are in the Principality of South Balam.

As for Burton Machinery Company, what Hobert valued more was the company's patents and R\u0026D talents, many of which were patents for the research and development of steam vehicles.

Hobert was looking for companies like this to develop and produce electric cars after the war.

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Hobert nodded: "If anything happens to Pulitzer Harbor, please pray to the 'creator'."

After saying that, Hobert bowed slightly and left from the spirit world.

William I's face instantly dropped, and he said to Drinker, the Grand Duke of South Wales, who had just arrived: "Georgina is right, the Principality of South Balam will definitely be a huge threat in the future."

…

Hobert is very upset about this new year.

Now He has become a relatively famous political figure in the entire world. During the New Year, too many people want to curry favor with Him, and too many people want to get acquainted with Him.

Hobert only went to Christine and Earl Hall to send New Year blessings on the 1st, and then went to Longtail Island to hide for some leisure.

All visits and invitations were rejected on the grounds that "the Duke was on a business trip."

On the morning of the 3rd, Hobert rushed to Seiros Island as scheduled and met Alger, the "Hanged Man".

In the previous Tarot meeting, they made an appointment to explore the third ruins of the elves together.

Two years ago, not long after Hobert joined the Tarot Club, he used his knowledge to help Alger find clues to three elven ruins.

Before this, Alger had explored two, one of which was occupied by "Poseidon" Kavituva. Currently, "The Fool" has replaced "Poseidon".

The second ruins were explored by Hobert and Alger together, where they discovered the invasion of alien gods, but it had been sealed by the elves at the cost of the lives of all the tribesmen.

At that time, both Hobert and Alger realized that these three ruins were very dangerous for the two people who only had Sequence 6 at the time, and they should not explore until they were sure.

Recently, Alger's promotion has encountered a bottleneck. In order to find the extraordinary characteristics used for promotion, he planned to ask the "Emperor" to help him explore the third ruins.

The two met at the edge of a rarely visited forest on Seiros Island. Hobert, who came out of the spirit world, smiled at the disguised Alger and said, "Happy New Year!"

Alger was stunned for a moment before saying, "Happy New Year."

He had heard too many greetings in recent days, but most of them were perfunctory. The "Emperor's" greeting sounded sincere, so he was slightly stunned.

Hobert looked around and made sure there was no one around before saying, "Tell me about the ruins we want to explore."

This time Hobert did not wear a mask and showed his true appearance to Alger.

He thought that after Alger's previous support operation for Crolier City, this guy should have been able to guess that the "Emperor" was Hobert.

So there was no need to wear a mask. When he met Alger in his own appearance and Alger showed no surprise, Hobert knew that the "Reverse Political Commissar" had indeed guessed his identity in the real world.

"According to the clues we got before, the ruins are located in the northwest of the island." Alger began to describe the information he got during the preparations:

"I asked around and found out that there is an unnamed island there. It is said that this cannibal tribe lives on the island. The Intis Republic sent prospectors decades ago, but no mineral deposits were found, so the island has not been developed yet."

Seiros Island is located in the west of the Raging Sea and is a colony of the Republic of Intis.

Hobert asked again: "Have you ever heard of the legend about that island?"

"After asking around, many people said that it is a paradise for sea monsters, because the crews of passenger ships and cargo ships have discovered traces of sea monsters in the surrounding waters more than once." Alger's preparations were very thorough:

"I learned from a retired colonial officer that the Republic of Intis once sent a navy to investigate and indeed found a few sea monsters, but that was not a gathering place for sea monsters."

He paused and continued: "Some people also said that a huge sea monster was found near the uninhabited island. Some said it was as big as a hill, and some said it was like a small island.

"I think it should be a sea monster attracted by the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Sailor' path. As for the specific size, there is no credibility. Almost every island has similar legends."

Hobert nodded slowly and then asked: "Do you have any items belonging to the elves there?"

Alger paused for a second or two before saying, "Yes."

As he spoke, he took out the crystal scepter he got from the original ruins. After Sequence 5, this scepter was useless, but in order to keep the secret, he never took action.

Hobert took it, glanced at the elven characters on the scepter, and then said: "Let's set off, northwest, right?"

"Yes."

Hobert waved his hand slightly, and Alger felt his eyes flash as he entered the spiritual world.

Alger's spirituality noticed that this was not an ability like "traveling", but rather like "moving" the space just now to the spiritual world.

He opened his mouth, as if out of reflex, wanting to ask what kind of ability this was?

But in the end Alger said nothing: This is the power of angels, and entering the spiritual world is as convenient as entering your own backyard.

After traveling through the spiritual world for a few seconds, I have reached my destination.

Hobert stood on the beach and used the scepter provided by Alger to "connect" with the aura left by the surrounding elves.

"Huh?" Hobert couldn't help but express his surprise that there was nothing related to it!

Alger, who was wary of his surroundings, asked, "What's wrong?"

Hobert smiled and returned the scepter to him: "It seems that I thought too simply."

After the initial surprise, he thought that the surrounding area was not too remote. If it was really so easy to find the location of the ruins, it would probably have been developed into an "elf ruins attraction."

There must be some reason why the ruins have not been discovered.

When Alger took the scepter, he heard Hobert ask again: "Can you create huge waves or whirlpools?"

Alger hurriedly said: "If you have enough time, you can create waves of about five or six meters, and you can also create whirlpools, but you have to go to the deep sea."

Hobert nodded and waved his hand gently. When Alger came back to his senses, he was already in mid-air dozens of kilometers away from the unnamed island.

Alger glanced at his feet and confirmed that he was in mid-air, but there was no feeling of falling.

The next second, Alger saw the "Emperor" making an inviting gesture towards him, and then he reacted and immediately went to operate the waves.

But soon he smiled bitterly and said: "The distance is too far."

The ability range of Sequence 5 is basically tens of meters, and their current position is too high. Alger feels that his spirituality cannot touch the sea.

Hobert smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, just use your abilities."

While speaking, He had already "tampered" with Alger's ability range to several hundred meters.

Alger took a deep breath and used his ability to create waves. Sure enough, a wave appeared on the sea. It was one or two meters high at first. Under Alger's constant "pushing", it gradually turned into a huge wave several meters high. .

But the scope of this huge wave is not large, and it cannot form the power of a tsunami. It is more like hitting the enemy with a wall of water.

Soon Alger discovered that the waves he created were getting taller, wider, and longer, and soon reached more than ten or dozens of meters.

In the end, the waves even reached their feet, forming a spectacular "water cliff"!

On one side, the sea water was lifted high, but on the other side, the sea water was magically not replenished immediately, so the two people in mid-air could directly see the scene on the bottom of the sea.

There are sunken ships, siren's lairs, and a gray-black seabed.

I don’t know how many years this seabed has not seen sunlight. Today it can finally get some sunshine.

At this time, Hobert said: "Are there too many sirens' lairs here?"

The area of ​​​​the seabed exposed by Hobert using Alger's power is not large, but there are four or five sea monsters' lairs.

There was even a sea monster that poked its head out of its lair and looked coldly at the two people in mid-air.

Only then did Alger react: "It seems to be a bit much."

Hobert said "hmm" and then said: "There are no ruins on the seabed here. Let's go over there and take a look."

Only then did Alger realize that after the "Emperor" realized that he could not directly locate the elven ruins using extraordinary abilities, he planned to lift up the seawater little by little to search for them.

This is unavoidable... Then Alger realized that under the premise that the power of the "Emperor" was so terrifying, this way of searching seemed to be the simplest and most effective way.

Finally, he sighed slightly: No wonder sometimes I feel that my thoughts are completely different from those of the demigods. It should be that the power gap between us is too big, so the way we deal with things is so different.

After figuring this out, Alger cooperated very well with Hobert, searching bit by bit like "ploughing the sea".

After searching for more than an hour, Hobert, who had just lifted the "seawater cliff", immediately said: "I felt a pulling force!"

He pointed in a direction: "It should be there. You can create a vortex there."

Even if that place is not the location of the ruins, there should still be some extraordinary power that is worth exploring.

Hobert "distorted" the space again, and the two people instantly appeared at the location he pointed out just now. The out-of-control "sea cliff" shot to the sea with an astonishing momentum, breaking many corals and throwing away a lot of sand. and the skeleton washed up on the sea.

This does not affect Alger's ability to create whirlpools, but rather because the turbulent water flow makes it easier to form whirlpools.

As soon as Hobert raised his hand, the vortex quickly grew in size, from a vortex that could only affect the course of the ship to a vortex that could swallow a ship.

The vortex was still expanding rapidly, forming a deep and large pit on the sea surface. Even Alger, who was in mid-air, felt the suction of the vortex.

Suddenly, a luminous object appeared at the bottom of the vortex. As the vortex became deeper, Hobert and Alger could vaguely see that it was a trident-shaped weapon that glowed blue.

It stands on the bottom of the sea and is not affected by the huge whirlpool at all!

After seeing the trident, Alger's eyes immediately became fanatical and he reached out to grab it.

However, Hobert held him back. His spirit sensed something was wrong. This trident actually stood like this on the bottom of the sea?

Then why couldn't He "connect" before? Are all the Navy of the Republic of Intis idiots? Why wasn't it discovered? Why don't the surrounding sirens try to devour it?

At this moment, the light of the trident became brighter. Alger struggled to jump down and grab it. Even Hobert felt that he was too suspicious.

Fortunately, Hobert's last remaining shred of sanity allowed him to "distort" his and Alger's positions, and the next moment, they appeared on the uninhabited island again.

Wow~

Before they could recover, the two people suddenly stepped on a simple extraordinary trap. They fell into a pit and were tied up by flying ropes.
