Surviving The Fourth Natural Disaster Chapter 33: The call of 1.5 million people
The late autumn has passed, the early winter has come, and in a blink of an eye, another month has passed. Hill sat on the bay window with a teacup, quietly enjoying the first snow in winter.
During this time, Hill lived a very leisurely life.
Players are still scattered all over Salar for the time being, building churches diligently. In order to get William's merit reward, they have tried their best to fight for the first territory in the game, enough for those gang families to go crazy.
And Adrian had summoned him a few days ago: All matters for himself and his family are over.
Adrian is free. Fran also doesn't need to worry that his successor will be insecure in his old age and be dragged into the water by the family. From now on, they have no worries.
Fran's care and maintenance for Adrian is the result of Adrian's sincere heart in the past 20 years. The future heir to Adrian is not within the scope of Faran and Hill's concern now.
Snowflakes rustled like fine salt, scattered in the air. The water system in the valley is vertical and horizontal, and the temperature is not low. When the snowflakes fall halfway, they slowly turn into raindrops. Clouds and mists shrouded the valley, like a dream.
Hill looked at Alice, who was climbing on the top of the tall trees, trying to grab the snow with her claws, with warmth and joy in her heart.
However, at this time, the spirit of nature suddenly gave him a warning.
Hill instantly flew out of the magic tower and looked at Salar in the distance.
Chaos of elemental power churned across the Salar. Black dark clouds covered the sky and the sun, and tornado columns with inverted cones flew out from the dark clouds, extending to the cities of Salar, overwhelming the sky and rolling in.
But such a terrifying power is firmly bound.
The power of the gods is so powerful, yet they can do so quietly. Ordinary people are ignorant, but professionals are panicking.
At this moment, the eyes of the whole world will turn to Salar. Elves and dwarves could probably no longer be indifferent.
Even Liszt, who has always been indifferent to external things, appeared at the top of the magic tower. For Liszt, who relies on elemental power, such elemental fluctuations are too terrifying.
The storm lasted for half an hour and then abruptly stopped. The major elements that filled the land of Salar were swept away.
Hill sensed the elements in his territory, and was madly attracted by the almost vacuum of Salar, and quickly asked Liszt to activate the isolation magic circle. The dazzling golden light formed a semi-circular transparent magic cover, which firmly sealed Hill's territory.
Hill looked down and saw that almost all the elements and monsters living in his territory surrounded his magic tower. They looked at Hill in the air worriedly.
These creatures, who depend on the elements to survive, feel the great changes the world is about to face.
They hoped Hill would give them a reassuring explanation, but Hill had no choice but to shatter their illusions.
There have been no new gods for 10,000 years, and everyone has to face the reality calmly.
Naturally, though alert, there is no feeling of sadness. World consciousness welcomes such a shift.
Alice jumped to the top of the tower and looked at Hill in panic: "What happened?"
"The summoning of the undead requires the consumption of elements. At least 1 million undead are summoned at the same time, resulting in this result. The power of this **** is unpredictable."
Alice buried her head in her front paws in frustration, her white hair was tied up, and she almost cried, "Hill already expected that, right? So he kept urging me to practice."
"It's too late. Alice, tell your friends. Hurry up. My territory can protect you for now. But I'm not sure what will happen in the future."
Alice asks: "Aren't they coming to us and calling?"
"No, how could that be? They should be heading south. There's a war waiting for them over Heva Saldo! Next time there's such a large summon, they'll just go to the sea. Fasaldo.
But Alice, if they were growing in number, wouldn't need to be here at all.
Elements are fluid, Alice. "
Alice whimpered softly and quickly climbed down the tower.
She came to the group of small animals, meowing for a long time. The little animals scattered very sadly. They once thought they only needed to live in the valley of Hill for a while, but now it seems that only here can their lives be preserved.
Once the elements in the air thin out, the crystal cores in their bodies will be coveted.
How ferocious human beings are, they all have it in their heritage memories.
Hill fell to the ground, summoning the elementals, warning them never to leave the territory. The water element, in particular, must never swim out of the valley from the river after having fun.
The river is the only place to leave the valley, and Hill's fence in the river can't stop the elements that can turn into water.
Although the elements agreed to him, they all looked anxiously in the direction of the element world. Although they have left the elemental world and live in this land, they still worry about their birthplace.
The reason why the element world can maintain its current high status is because humans can't beat them.
They are afraid that the power of the elemental world will also be melted away. Will the powerful gods let go of the resource-rich elemental world?
Hill shook his head and told them that even if it could affect the elemental world, it would take hundreds of thousands of years. Humans are always going to die, but elements may survive for hundreds of thousands of years. And this **** is a good god, and will never take the initiative to invade other worlds.
The simple elements soon felt relieved, and the element world would not participate in the battle of the material world, and they began to wander happily in Hill's territory again. Hill went back to the study and connected to Frank: "Grandfather! How is Sarah's situation now?"
"1.5 million came in directly." Alan said in a stiff tone, "William is crazy! Don't talk about it for now, a lot of things happen in the capital, I'll tell you later. The mages of Salar are going crazy!"
Hill cuts off contact. Worryingly waiting for Fran to contact him again. Fran didn't dare to scold the god, but Hill knew very well who he really wanted to scold in his angry tone.
Outside the glittering magic cover, the snow in this early winter has been blown away by the elemental storm.
Life is really ups and downs, Hill can't remember the good mood in the morning. Even though it had been anticipated, it was still uneasy.
Hill silently waited for the storm of reality.
At midnight, the elements in the outside world finally calmed down, and Hill waited for Flange to communicate again.
This is the first time Hill has heard Frank's hoarse voice.
"William is too ruthless! The concentration of elements outside our territory has been reduced by 1/3. In the best places in Salar, only half of the elements are retained.
The Mage Association, this time it is estimated that it will not be able to hold on. William wished that the entire Mages Society would withdraw. Now they can only choose to either go or bow to the Salar royal family.
Back then, they forced the royal family to give up a magic tower, and it was normal to receive such revenge.
The Mage Association has been arrogant for so many years, how many well-qualified Mages in Salar have been sent away by them! Nobles would rather deal with the Temple of Knowledge than learn spells with them.
It is the common mage who is going to be unlucky again.
Forget it, Salar doesn't have any common mage either. Nobles and Mage Association, whatever the outcome is normal.
After the 1.5 million undead appeared today, William announced that all the elemental mines above the city level of Salar would be nationalized.
At present, the mines in the hands of the nobles, William will buy at the market price, only the ones that have been registered and have paid the royal family's mineral tax.
As of the beginning of next year, those who do not hand in the minerals will be punished with treason. The army will take it directly. Those who have not registered will be confiscated immediately if they are found. "
"All minerals?"
"Small mines like ours are not counted. We don't care about those outside Salar. But William declared that he plans to expand the country, and the border will expand north and west together.
This kind of big mineral is in the hands of the great nobles.
What does William want to do now? No one has understood.
Those in the capital felt that William was thinking about the chaos of the Salar royal family. It was all these big nobles who colluded with each other.
He also hated Edward and Charles, saying that he wanted to extend the border just to drive them further away. In the depths of the northern wilderness, enough for these people! "
Hill suddenly asked uncontrollably, "No one would think that William just wanted to build a fair and just country?
Minerals should never be left in private hands. "
Fran sternly said, "No matter how much speculation and thoughts you have~IndoMTL.com~ take it back to me!"
"Yes! Grandfather, I will only tell you."
"What if I have someone else here? I'm very grateful now that you sent the Bonn family to me.
Remember, keep your mouth shut. "
"Yes, grandfather. Where's Adrian? Aren't you next to you?"
"Adrian has gone to arrange accommodation. I will welcome many guests here.
Fortunately, you said that the undead would come and built a hotel.
Don't turn off the isolation magic circle there.
Mages, there are too many people who are unfeeling and indifferent. Unless they owe a great favor to a noble, make an oath before God, or an unlucky ghost like Adrian, they will not participate in wars to defend the property of the nobles.
A lot of people have already hinted to me that they want to be a guest.
They want to go further west in the mountains to find a place to build the mage tower. If they can't find a safe enough place, they'll just give up.
Either surrender to William or go abroad.
I'm sure there will be chaos here for a while, and I'm the only one in the West who can settle down here.
During this time, you stay in the territory honestly. Never close the isolation magic circle. Are your elemental spar enough? "
"Don't worry, grandfather, enough for me to drive continuously for 100 years."
"William has announced the recall of all noble knights guarding the borders of Heva Saldor. Four undead families have been divided.
If the commoners don't want to live in the undead territory, they can all leave before the spring. "
Fran couldn't help but sighed: "There must be something big in the spring."
