Release that Witch Chapter 1382: What you see
Cage Mountain, command post.
"Head, another piece of intelligence ..." Clown walked to Hill Fawkes with a note.
Even if it has been years, the first circus partners still used to call him the head of the habit.
"Where did it come from?" Hill took the note and scanned it, "Can you trace it back to the source?"
"The messenger position was released in the south of Eternal Winter. There are three cities over there. There is no other reminder on the seal."
Hill frowned for a moment, then stood up abruptly, "Help me inform Lord Iron Axe and His Excellency Edith, we may be in trouble."
...
Fifteen minutes later.
Edith put down the information and tapped the desktop gently, "... that is, this happened at the same time everywhere in Eternal Winter?
Hill nodded, "Although it is impossible to confirm which cities are executing this order, from the perspective of the distribution of information, it is not an overstatement."
In recent days, the intelligence service has received several secret letters with the same content.
The letter states that noble is relocating local residents by force.
And they are moving north.
The similarity is so consistent, but the intelligence from different regions is almost impossible misinformation or falsification. In other words, Eternal Winter's noble is launching a unified operation.
Although the word migration is mentioned briefly in the secret letter, it is by no means a trivial matter. There is a limit to the carrying capacity of the city, and too few or too many people will cause it to be paralyzed. And there are more things to consider on the migration road, such as food for people to eat, temporary residences, belongings, etc .. Neverwinter City is definitely well understood in this regard. It can even be said that the city ruled by the old noble simply did not have the ability to complete a large-scale migration. Without strong strength and materials to support it, the so-called migration is just a road to death.
Indeed, most of the noble don't care about the life and death of civilians, but that is only when the civilians are "individuals". feudal lord's taxation and rule are inseparable from the civilian population. If there is no one under governance, even powerful power will be meaningless. Once these civilians find that they cannot benefit from the migration, they will inevitably lose all hearts. What's more, bringing a large number of people together can easily lead to riots, so even the noble will not easily do such amazing things.
But now it is not only one noble doing this, but the entire north is doing this, clearly being directed by other forces.
Kingdom of Eternal Winter has the ability to do so, only Devil.
"But why does Devil do this?" Edith said to himself in wonder, "If you just want to weaken the Greycastle's war potential, you can kill all the civilians ... If you have spider demons, noble will be powerless if you don't want to. Block it. "
"Maybe Devil thinks ... they're still useful." Morning Light tried to speculate.
"It shouldn't be forced to migrate them if they are useful," Hill shook his head. "Eternal Winter is the least one of the big cities in Four Great Kingdoms. Even Kingdom Capital can only accommodate 20,000 or 30,000 people without prior preparation, let alone their movement. The route does not use Kingdom Capital as the end point. "
"The big city with the most north is ..." Edith looked at the map.
"Brightsnow Castle, backed by the source of Impassable Mountain Range, the area is only half of Kingdom Capital." Ferlin immediately added the relevant information, "Due to its unique terrain and lower permanent population, it is also the first place where red mist appears."
"If Devil intends to move everyone here, it is no different than killing them directly," said Hill.
"The enemy will never do more than this," Edith nodded in agreement, "I think there must have been something we haven't noticed yet, which has caused Devil to take this seemingly unexplainable action."
"What will happen then?" Iron Axe asked.
"I don't know ..." Edith slowly said, "but it should not be good news. Notify the front line first and let them be more vigilant."
...
"This red cloud ... is this where the Devil obelisk is?" Tilly murmured.
No, Lightning replied solemnly. At this distance, we should not see red mist ...
"Can't see? Why?"
Because red mist is all going down! answer her is Macy, I have seen the mist pouring down from the edge of the extreme mountain, just like a waterfall!
Yes, I do n’t know if the red mist is heavier than air, which makes them easier to gather at low altitudes, but one thing is certain, when red mist invades Kingdom of Eternal Winter from continental spine, it is not a red on the mountain. Lightning added.
"You mean, they were flowing down the ravine at that time?" Tilly frowned.
That's why she said that red mist can't be seen within this distance. Now they are hundreds of kilometers away from the highest mountain on this continent. If red mist doesn't rise, it will inevitably be blocked by the mountain peaks.
Not only that, Lightning affirmed that one month ago I had visited North along Impassable Mountains and approached the edge of red mist area, but at that time there was no red cloud on continental spine. It ... doesn't seem to be rising from the Rift Valley.
Tilly couldn't help but feel the chill rising behind her. At this time, she gradually noticed that the red on the mountain is not a thin layer, but a whole from top to bottom. More precisely, it is like It is a huge pillar of cloud pouring down from the clouds.
She stared at the vision in front of her, and said after a long silence, "There is a way that may make us see more clearly."
Lightning looks up, looking at the dense Dark Cloud above my head, I think so.
The higher you fly, the farther you look.
As long as they can incorporate continental spine into their eyes, they may see the true face of that red cloud.
"In this case, try it out." Tilly increased the throttle again to the maximum, raised the nose to climb to the clouds, and Lightning was next to the cockpit, so that magic power coherence could cover Tilly.
With the cooperation of the two, the altimeter pointer on the The Phoenix deflects towards the end.
When it reaches an altitude of 7,500 meters, the ground has already shown a clear arc, Dark Cloud becomes intermittent, and is no longer a whole piece, and the ground edge is also light blue.
Lightning's forehead was sweating densely. Obviously, high altitude also caused a lot of burden on her homology barrier. Through the glass window, Tilly found that a white frost had appeared on the fuselage. It's not that the other party has been using magic power coherence to alleviate her discomfort. I'm afraid she can't focus on flying the airplane like she does now.
"Almost," Tilly can clearly feel that the thrust of the engine is rapidly weakening, "just find a gap here."
"Leave it to me!" Macy leaned his head and turned into Eagle Eye mode.
About half a quarter of an hour, she found an excellent point of view. From the gap where the clouds overlap, she can see a small outline of continental spine in the distance.
However, the three could hardly believe their eyes when the scene above red mist reflected under the telescope.
They saw a piece of floating land.
