Chapter 479 (1/2)

Qing Yan mainland.

Mingpan port on the west coast is one of the top ten natural deep-water ports in the Empire. A large number of ocean going ships enter and leave every day. The developed maritime trade makes this coastal city very rich.

Since last month, it has become very busy here. A large number of church clergy and armed forces of the church directly under the command of the port took over the defense of the port, and then began to requisition large-scale ships, including the sailors on board, and the warehouse area of the port.

Then, a large number of goods and materials are constantly transported from all over the country, including grain, armor, clothing, tents There are also troops who have arrived with the materials. In order to temporarily resettle these troops and materials, the local government has recruited a large number of civilian laborers and built a large number of new barracks and warehouses before they can be considered properly placed.

In addition to this, hundreds of other coastal port cities are making similar preparations.

As for the reason for this, it is no secret among the people of the Empire. It is said that the great God of war personally sent down the oracle to launch an all-out holy war against the Starwood empire on the other side of the sea. Therefore, there was a grand occasion for the whole country to mobilize for war.

At nightfall, the port and wharf area is still busy, all kinds of goods and materials are piled up like mountains, and a large group of slaves are loading them into ocean going ships one by one.

It is usually the local government's garrison, and now the church's Guardian Corps. Soldiers in dark blue armor, cloaks and chest inscriptions of the church's emblem can be seen everywhere.

In a tavern not far from the wharf area, there were still bright lights and a lot of people. Groups of sailors, Lifu and night watchmen filled the not too spacious hall. Behind a row of heavy wooden wine cabinets, they lazily leaned against a half drunk and scarred man.

On the platform in the middle of the hall, several young girls with heavy make-up and exposed clothes were twisting their bodies with great efforts, which attracted the men watching from the stage to give bursts of excited cheers and wanton teasing.

The war God Church has a high degree of secularization, and there are not many rules and regulations for the common people. Even if the port is under martial law and the atmosphere is obviously different from before, these people at the bottom can still have fun in this place, and those noble church clergy seldom visit this place.

At a table in the corner, a few men dressed in ordinary clothes and with sinister eyes were sipping ale and communicating with each other in a silent way. Occasionally, some villains want to get close to each other. They feel as if they have no murderous spirit. They all hide far away as if they have seen the small animals of their natural enemies.

“…… I've seen that this group of magic sticks are very tight, especially in the more important places, there are more than one strongman in the Holy Land watching

“…… It's not surprising that these things in the port area are worth tens of thousands of dollars. If something goes wrong, those masters can't afford it. ”

”In fact, it's also because of what happened in the port of Asia two days ago. Some high-level legendary magic scrolls were thrown down, and most of the port area was destroyed, and hundreds of their ships were burned. After the incident, the local bishop and the captain of the police were all put on the gallows! Hey, hey... ”

”Now the people in the church are becoming more careful. The number of strong people stationed in the church has increased greatly. It is not easy to do things again.”

”That's right. But we have to find a way to finish the work beautifully after taking the huge commission there. Even if we take some risks, we should all eat this bowl of rice?”

”It makes sense...”

Several men discussed for a moment, got up and left separately and disappeared in the night outside the tavern.

Before long, a patrol team leader in the dock area inadvertently looked up and saw that the night sky above his head was obviously distorted. A huge fire ring with a diameter of 100 meters had been formed, and there were countless virtual images of big fireballs rolling and boiling inside.

Lava fire rain?!

This terrible magic name came to mind of the patrol captain. This high-level legendary magic is famous for its long duration and great lethality. Once it is officially completed, half of the wharf area will be reduced to ruins, and none of the people in this area can live!

”Enemy attack!”

He roared as hard as he could, then he felt the whistle for warning and blew it quickly. The sharp and harsh whistle echoed in the night sky, which instantly startled many powerful breath.

A dazzling white light from a barracks, straight hit the ring of fire in the sky, so that it suddenly dimmed a lot, some faint trend of dissipation.

Then the second and the third light of ablation flew out, continuing to neutralize the terrible magic energy in the ring of fire and disperse it.

The two figures with strong breath rose into the air. After a slight induction in the air, they flew rapidly in one direction. It was obvious that the location of the attacker was found.

”The reaction was not bad, but this place is ruined today.”

In mid air, a faint voice sounded.
