Chapter 38: People Call Him Little Alert Star, Heading to Flower Castle
The latest news from Lord Gorgart was not sent by Burlaugh, but by a knight captain of the Mast family, Johnny Mast, with an army.
After reporting the sighting of this army at the outpost tower of Second Terra, Bryce even wondered if Lord Ryan's recent excessive behavior had finally made the Lord suspicious?
But the scene that Bryce imagined did not happen. Ryan met Johnny Mast. After the two talked secretly for a while, Ryan chose to hold a plenary meeting.
In the Second Terra City Council Hall, except for Kamo who was still fighting outside, all the municipal department heads including Bryce were summoned here.
Zhuang Ni took out the Lord's hand letter and showed it:
"The Gray Vulture family colluded with at least four noble families in an attempt to use hateful magical power to control the lord and seize control of Turin. Fortunately, our people have already controlled the metal minerals and food in the territories of the major families. With the resources and the support of Terra's third company, at least south of the Baiqi Mountains, the lord can have complete control. The Knight Guards of the Mast family are here to assist Second Terra in unifying the south as soon as possible. "
After seeing the Lord's order, the officials of Second Terra breathed a sigh of relief. When working in the past, they always had the feeling that the Second Terra would rise up and rebel. They believed that the company's combat power could crush everything, but they just didn't want to be so worried all the time.
Now that I have the official endorsement from the lord, I think Ryan Weir must be the next lord of Turin.
In this case, everything Second Terra does will not cause people to worry about arousing suspicion.
At the moment, Bryce firmly promised that he would train more municipal personnel as soon as possible so that the system of Second Terra could cover the occupied land as soon as possible and lay the foundation for the development of Turin and Second Terra.
After finishing the first thing, Johnny looked at Ryan, who nodded. The knight commander got the answer and signaled the knights to bring up a coffin.
"The body of the magician who previously cooperated with the Gray Vulture family to attack the Lord was taken into our custody. There are clues that this magician served the Boboli Ambassador of the Principality of Mandala. In other words, we may have to fight with the Principality of Mandala The war started."
Johnny slapped the coffin hard with his metal arm armor and stared at everyone.
He saw excitement and exhaustion in these people's eyes, but no fear. Very good. Although Mr. Ryan has not had much contact, he was able to build this barren place into a developed city within two months, and the people inside are confident and proud, and are not afraid of power.
If Turin is ruled by Lord Ryan in the future, or even the entire principality, people's lives will definitely become better.
At this time, Johnny didn't know that Ryan was already thinking that after the plague zombies were taken care of, as soon as the empire's fleet arrived, he would prepare for a large-scale relocation and evacuation, at least to move the ordinary people in this world to a safe place.
The people in the Empire, especially the nobles who claim to be willing to sacrifice a small part of their interests for the sake of justice, may have the idea to drop a cyclone torpedo and clear the entire planet of biomass to avoid gene stealers. Development will not lead to the Hive Fleet.
The troublesome thing is that they have actually done this kind of thing.
Bryce coughed a few times, stood up, his face glowing red, and said:
"Sir, Second Terra and Turin are one and the same. We are loyal to the Will family, that's all."
Johnny was actually worried about whether the people of Second Terra would dare to rebel against the Mandala Principality?
It's simply a big joke. Any citizen who has experienced life on Second Terra will never be willing to go back to the feudal system of the past.
Before that, they had even made plans to resist Turin, not to mention the Principality of Mandala, which had nothing to do with their daily lives but was indeed oppressing them.
Johnny nodded, then opened the lid of the simple coffin, revealing the scene inside.
It was half the body of some kind of giant bird, and it had many characteristics of reptiles. Part of its limbs were covered with cold blue scales. It had a weird blue beauty in the sunlight, and it seemed like there was some kind of magnificent wisdom flowing there. These limbs are beyond admiration.
Under this graceful half body, there are two blue-purple pancakes that look like they were cut in half with a knife, spread out separately. The fangs and sharp teeth before melting can be vaguely seen, as well as the folds of the air bag that have been broken at the bottom.
"This is the corrupted body of the magician who attacked the lord. His evil abilities manifested into demons in the real world. Fortunately, the demons have been defeated by us. The Principality of Mandala has begun to use these powers. This is It shows that the challenges in the future will become increasingly difficult.”
Bryce asked curiously: "Master Ryan, you should also be a magician, and you will also become a magician in the future. Do you look like this?"
Ryan laughed, pointing to the huge wallpaper of the Emperor and Noah on the wall directly behind the conference room, and said:
"That won't happen one day. The power of magicians comes from spiritual energy. If your will is strong enough to control spiritual energy, even if something dirty is attracted, it will not distort your will. And these magicians The reason for the fall, in addition to their own tragic fate, is probably also the reason why they were unable to resist the terrible erosion and succumbed to the temptation of those demons. "
Ryan motioned for Johnny to continue. The latter nodded and then said:
"Seventy percent of the spies in Flower Castle have been eliminated, and the information sent back is very important. The reception area of Flower Castle has been isolated, and there is a suspected outbreak of a plague similar to the one that occurred in the southern border many years ago. We cannot guarantee that that plague will not It will spread across the entire Western Territory in an instant, so Second Terra also needs to prepare in advance.”
Sure enough, he was out of luck. After listening to Johnny's words, Ryan rubbed his eyes. Now that Tzeentch and Nurgle are here, the bugs are on their way.
If there is another green skin, my dear, this place will be like a little warning star.
More importantly, he is indeed in a meeting now. Will the Ark Eldar come to raid the city hall where the Second Terra meeting is held now?
The city officials in the audience were also a little disappointed. The rapid development of Second Terra was aimed at establishing a centralized defensive fortress from the beginning to avoid the impact of the zombie wave caused by the zombie plague.
Ryan also mentioned this during the meeting. Now this news has been officially confirmed by Turin. The shadow of the zombie tide, which is only a potential threat, has now shrouded the sky over Second Terra.
In the next few months, no matter how complicated the tasks or municipal work, they have no intention of complaining. Because there are still more people in the newly conquered territory who have not yet relocated, the construction of modular houses has not been completed, and the high wall used to resist the zombie tide only exists on the planning drawings of the city hall, just a draft. .
After Johnny completed the message transmission in the name of Lord Gorgart, the subsequent meeting became a "friendly internal communication" session of the Second Terra Municipal Department.
In order to avoid meetings that are too long and conflicts between personnel that lead to stagnation, Bryce has been avoiding this hodgepodge meeting format. However, today people from all departments gathered together and inevitably started discussing meeting-related content. Complex debate.
This is a stage that an organizational system must go through if it wants to develop. Ryan only forcibly determined a few crucial issues in his personal capacity, and other matters were left to these municipal staff to complete themselves.
Ryan will always have a seat at the meeting table, but it does not mean that he can show up in time to make the final decision in every meeting.
The future Second Terra will inevitably experience a vacancy without Ryan, and the municipal staff who have experienced today's hardships will be Second Terra's valuable future assets.
After nearly two days of meetings, Ryan left the city hall with a serious-looking Johnny.
The latter, as a tough knight, became mentally trance-like after suffering for two days.
"Lord Ryan, I never realized that internal affairs work is so tedious and torturous. Is this the price we need to pay to achieve the living standard of Second Terra? Even if the lord stays up late every day to approve documents, he will not be so busy. kind of situation.”
Johnny asked respectfully, he was curious about this strange meeting system.
Ryan also said helplessly: "This will always be the case in the early stages. After Turin also intervenes in the Second Terra, there will naturally be trained municipal staff to complete these tasks, instead of concentrating everything on the lord alone. By the way, there was one more thing you said when you first came here, what did you mean? "
Johnny followed closely behind Ryan and whispered:
"The throne where the Titans are stored has been opened. The twenty-year period has come. The bloodline certification will spread from the individual to the entire bloodline race. The time has come for the birth of a new Titan Knight. The lord wants to confirm that we set off to the Flower Castle, the capital of Mandala. It’s time for him to prepare.”
Ryan suddenly stopped, turned around and walked towards the conference room, saying:
"We'll set off the day after tomorrow. Before I leave, I have to hold another meeting to plan the development stages of Second Terra during my absence. Damn it, you should have told me about this earlier. The meeting we just had You can definitely keep driving.”
Johnny froze on the spot, motionless, not knowing whether to follow Ryan and continue to plunge into the conference room that was countless times more painful than a knight's duel, or to wait rationally outside for Ryan Weir to complete his city plan. .
"What are you doing standing there? Come here quickly and catch the people from those departments before they get far!"
Ryan shouted loudly from the front, and Johnny had no choice but to follow.
Great sun above, I wish this world had something to put in your ears to protect yourself from those terrible noises.
One day later, a bleary-eyed Johnny was lying in the carriage reminiscing about his life, while Ryan was riding his horse around refreshed, walking on both sides of the team, heading towards Ironthorn Castle.
Finally, he didn't have to worry about any troubles Terra would cause during his absence. Ryan was still recalling the contents of the meeting in his mind, especially the construction plan for a high wall to resist the zombie tide.
It's a pity that no oil or gas resources have been found. Otherwise, defensive weapons such as flamethrowers can be developed to show the loving father the scientific reason why the base protein of any biomass will denature and become ineffective under flames.
Although these flames probably have no effect on high-level Nurgle demons, this planet is his novice village after all. Transforming into a small warning star has already made his blood pressure soar. It will definitely not let the Nurgle plague evolve into a demon engine roaring and unclean. The scene of the attacker charging.
When they arrived at Ironthorn Castle, Gorgart was already waiting outside.
The lord's expression was not very good, and he mentioned a piece of bad news as soon as he came up:
"After Popoly conveyed the news that the awakening time of the Titan Knight had arrived, he took his men and ran away. My men only caught a substitute. I am really impressed that he could find a substitute with his size. It was also difficult for the Grand Duke. As soon as Popoly left the Ironthorn Castle, the nobles in the north of Turin knew what happened in the south. We have to make a decision early."
Ryan thought:
"We can transfer the first company back from the Second Terra, and the first and third companies will follow us north to conquer all the noble territories on the way. In this way, we don't have to worry about being sandwiched from front and back. Anyway, we have decided to tear our faces with the Mandala Principality, so there is no need to care about those indecisive fence-sitters."
Gorgat heard this and said, "The army can't enter the Flower Castle, but your idea is very good. At least these two companies can ensure that there will be no danger when we withdraw to Turin in case of an accident."
The two exchanged opinions quickly, and Johnny immediately returned to mobilize the first company, and Kamo would follow at that time.
Meanwhile, in Turin, the Will family's team had already prepared and slowly set off, heading north.
Qi Ming and Brauch, two guys who had awakened the power of Agito, followed Ryan closely and trained their own strength.
Ryan looked at a giant and a sharp Agito, and felt that his own Yaojin Agito was just an ordinary bucket number, and perhaps there were some wonderful abilities that he had not discovered yet.
What made Ryan curious was that Qi Ming and Brauch did not show the superpowers corresponding to the power of light. It seemed that the evolution of Agito was too fast, so that those superpowers did not appear.
Bai Shen seemed to be patching to avoid the appearance of transcendence factors and the Encore core without dragon eyes, and uniformly evolved into the posture of changing rings.
When the light power was spread, it was on the verge of death, so there were too many bugs.
Now that he was reborn, he finally had time to fix the bugs to ensure that there would be no more distorted Agitos.
I just don't know if the power of light can infect the Space Marines who have been transformed by the gene seed or even the original body himself?
That scene is a bit unbearable to imagine. If it really happened, none of the Emperor and the Four Gods would be able to hold back.
As for Noah, he hasn't entered his dream for such a long time. Could it be that there are too many qualified people in countless parallel universes, so he can't handle the business, so he left a program to enter the subspace, and then forgot about himself!
