Chapter 230: Aftermath and turmoil (1/2)
While the perpetrators reorganized their morale and restarted their plans after the homing of the stars, other groups outside the boundaries of human civilization that were also affected by the incident also calmed the dramatic chaos.
On the front island reefs in the eastern part of the Endless Sea, several tidal barriers were set up urgently, and powerful magical forces formed shields on the edge of the island reef to replace the coastal anti-wave work that was previously destroyed by huge waves, while at the barrier Inside, the sons of the storm that barely recovered their vitality are busy around the clock. They want to repair the magical array on the island, rebuild the destroyed coastal buildings, and rescue food and herbs that have not been polluted and not decayed. Before the storm comes, they must rejuvenate these vital frontier island reefs, at least to the extent that they can be self-sustaining.
In a subterranean nest in Ansu, the Druids who died in the end of the world finally re-sealed the "Pseudo-God's Body", and the massive biomass they lost in the process was difficult to replenish in a short time. The new flesh and blood multiplication plan has begun to be implemented, and the great dean of the event has already returned to the depths of the crypt and entered a state of dormancy that may last for a whole year.
In the deep sea, tens of thousands of Krakens squat on the seabed and talk about how long the core fusion tower can run.
However, the mortal kingdoms on the mainland of Loren will not know this. As the winter comes, peace is shrouding their kingdom and the calm on the surface of the empire.
Tifeng Didu, Aldernan, aristocratic district.
It has been two months since I saw the Earl of Winter Castle. After hearing that the North Earl is about to leave the Imperial Capital, Grand Duke Ferdinand Wend once again visited the residence of the Earl in the Imperial City.
One is the most powerful Duke of the empire, and the other is the Earl in the cold northern part of the empire. There is obviously a gap between the two titles, but in fact everyone knows that the two families of the Duke of Dinant and the Earl of Winter Fort are very close. Years ago, it was already an intimate ally. The Winter Wolf Legion controlled by the Wendell family was mainly located in the northwestern side of the empire, where it was adjacent to the hereditary seal of the Earl of Winter Fort, one-half of the soldiers of the Winter Wolf Legion. They are all from the Winter Fort area. The Winter Fort family not only provides the young and the winter wolf army, but also provides material support for the latter. The Wendel family acts as the protector of the winter castle family in the Imperial Rights Network. It has never changed for hundreds of years.
A mutual aid on the battlefield in the northern border 20 years ago laid a personal friendship between Judy South Windel and the current Winter Castle Earl Palin Winter Fort. Their friendship has continued to this day.
Compared with the last time, the Earl of Winter Castle looked even more awkward. This powerful caster probably had not had a good rest for many days and nights. His face was dark and his cheeks were sunken. Even the eyes filled with magical brilliance seemed to be more beautiful. There was a lot of turbidity in the past, and Dinantan had to worry about the health of his old friend first: "Are you alright? Palin? You seem to have been sleeping for three days and three nights!"
"Today, it is indeed the third day," Earl of Winter Castle was sitting in a large high-backed chair, his face frowned. "I really can't sleep... Our emperor's knees are more and more worrying."
"I heard that His Majesty again rejected your proposal and ordered the Winter Fort area to prepare for the war of the coming year...he..."
"Your Majesty has completely failed to listen to any dissuasion, whether it is what you said or what I said," Earl of Winter Castle shook his head. "Now is not a good time to start a full-scale war. My Duke, no one is better than you." I know more about Ansu’s Dongjing Guardian family. They are hard bones. The empire’s army is strong and powerful, with new tactics and better equipment, while Ansu is stagnant in this respect, but this does not mean We can have no price... At least, it is not the time."
"I am like you, we have never doubted that the power of the empire is enough to defeat the enemy, but the key lies in the size of the price," said Dinantan, who was frowning. "However, our emperor seems to have lost this judgment, he... Too radical."
"Not only radical, the Duke, not just radical," the Earl of Winter Castle was serious. "I suspect... the crazy curse has begun to affect the Emperor."
Grandma’s eyebrows suddenly jumped: “What have you observed?”
He knows that the Earl of Winter Castle is a powerful caster and a master of erudition in the mysterious field. He may be far superior to each other in force, but in the field of magic and curse, the whole empire can surpass the Earl of Winter Castle. More, he saw the radiance of magic overflowing from the eyes of his old friend. The expression of the latter became heavy and solemn: "I didn't observe anything, but some doubts were that the emperor could not detect the magic without being involved. Deliberately avoiding being watched by my 'eye of magic', when he met, he stood next to four royal mages, and the powerful magical interference made me invisible, and this is the most suspicious place."
"Your Majesty knows that he has a problem..." The breathing of Grand Duke Di Dinan became a little bit rushed. "But he consciously prevented you from helping him?!"
"This is the most disturbing part of the conscious consciously indulge your own madness, which is more terrible than pure madness," Earl of Winter Castle looked at the eyes of Grand Duke Dinant. "I have lost my trust, and he ordered me to return to the territory." Unless you get the favor, you are not allowed to step into the Imperial Capital again, so now I can't do anything. The only thing you can do is to keep an eye on the palace and prepare for the day when your Majesty is completely crazy. According to my estimation, kneel down. It still maintains most of the sobriety. He just changed his personality, so he can still be a qualified king when he governs the country, but this state may not last for a few years..."
