Hotel on the mountain

At the same time, a large number of guards began to pour into the Alpine Hotel in the New World. They guarded various key points and prohibited service personnel from passing through.

Jetro considered that if the Great Sea Dragon was about to arrive in the New World, it would no longer be safe for ships to and from the New World, so a while ago, he asked the ships to send back all the guests who were not planning to stay for a long time, and announced that hotel renovations would be suspended. Open for business.

Reminiscent of the fact that when they first arrived in the New World, they were attacked by the Great Sea Dragon. Judging from the living range of the Great Sea Dragon, it is estimated that the waiting time will not be too long, so various projects in the New World are working overtime. .

After receiving Obsward's blood letter, Jetro understood that some of the things arranged in Midland had come to an end, so he rushed to the hotel lobby and ordered everyone to enter a state of martial law - he was preparing to activate the portal fragment. The second function is "overclocking".

He has never activated this function before. On the one hand, there is no important matter to contact Thorad on the other side of the continent. On the other hand, he uses the spiritual energy accumulated by the Chiyo fragments every month to feed him. Black Eclipse Dragon.

Therefore, if he wants to activate overclocking now, Yetro must input psychic energy into the Chiyo Shard himself, allowing it to feed back to the Pillar of Raya, triggering the overclocking effect. As for the Black Eclipse Dragon’s ration this month? Just let it starve first.

The Pillars of Raya and the Chiyo Fragments rotate slowly like planets, and the blue light they emit is hazy and dreamy. Jetro stood under them, raised his hand, and shot out spiritual energy from his hand towards the Chiyo fragments, hoping that the Chiyo fragments, which had reached the end of the month, would swallow less.

…

Obsward was actually very panicked. He was the weakest person present. He rushed in to break up the fight in such a tense and intense scene, just like a pig caught between a liger and a tiger to persuade everyone to become vegetarian.

But he had to go in because he had to do something for Jetro to make up for the loss of tens of millions of gold and silver.

So Obsward rushed in and shouted: "Exchange the Hill family's psychic control medium for Kilde!"

The crowd seemed to have pressed the pause button, and all looked over. Obsward told himself that he must remain calm, so he stood up unhurriedly, brushed a few strands of bangs from his forehead with his hands, and said:

“Wow, that’s it—

Xander wants Guild alive, Thorard wants his wife Belinda. But since Belinda was taken away by the Wood family in Zhongsland, wouldn't it be great if we just need to find another thing that is important to Sander to replace it?

Losing the psychic control medium must be very painful for Sander, right? "

As soon as Obsward finished speaking, he hugged Gilder tightly and was about to personally block the knife from Thorad, who was a little irrational. Bolany nodded crazily and agreed: "Yes, don't turn robbery into It’s killing people.”

"Are you with them?" Sander looked directly at Obsward, his light brown eyes looking cold.

"Hehehehe, no, no, no..." Facing the controller of the White City, Obsward subconsciously wanted to deny it, but he looked at Thorad and the Bo who held Kilder hostage. Lanni straightened his back again, tilted his pointed chin slightly and said calmly, "Yes, that's right, we are in the same group."

"It's a very simple matter to find out who sent the money. I will find out who is behind you controlling all this." After Sander finished speaking to Obsward, he turned to Thorad said, "I'll give you the psychic control medium."

As he spoke, Sander tore open his formal clothes and took off a necklace from his neck. There was an irregular piece of blue-gray stone material hanging on the necklace. He put it in his hand and stroked it. , somewhat reluctantly, but still threw it to Thorad.

"Let him go." Xander shouted sharply.

Thorad held the fragment in his hand and looked at it carefully, and found that it looked very similar to the Chiyo fragment, but it was twice the size of the Chiyo fragment. Thorad put away the fragment that fell on the necklace, and said to Sander: "I will release you when you get to the border of the empire, the Doin River Fortress."

"Impossible. You know the secret between Gilder and me. What if you hand her over to the Hebrew Empire? I haven't reached the point where I will trust you 100%." ​​Sander's expression was very bad. "The town of Leerda is a day's journey from the Doin River Fortress. At most, you must let Kilder go there."

The town of Leerda is a delta area formed by the Doine River and its tributaries. It is the buffer zone between the Hebrew Empire and the Great Chek Empire. It is also a famous three-no-no zone. Two bridges connect the two countries.

Thorad pondered for a while and replied: "Okay. In seven days, at the Red Parrot Hotel in Relda Town, Room 8 on the third floor, I will place Kilde with many traps there. And in the room Hang an ice cube - until the ice cube melts, the trap will be activated. Once the room is damaged or broken into, the trap will kill Gilder. It will take almost a day for the ice cube to melt. have you understood?"

Sander stared at Thorad expressionlessly for a while, then took out a stopwatch from his pocket and said in a deep voice: "Seven days? Hurry up and run."

Bolanni handed Kilde the clothes. When he didn't dare to look at her, his eyes happened to catch a portfolio that Kilde had thrown on the table when he first entered the room. He saw the words "supply", "route", "warehouse" and other words. Relying on the experience gained from hanging out at the Duoin River Fortress, he stuffed the file bag into his arms very easily.

After Gilder got dressed, the three of them took her hostage and ran away. They got on the carriage parked on the road and hid in the dark night, running wildly.

…

At the Alpine Hotel, Jetro, who had been outputting psychic energy, finally saw that the light connecting the Chiyo Fragment and the Pillar of Raya became thicker, and burst out with a burst of dazzling colors, and then the brilliance of the Pillar of Raya also began to blaze. , they rotate faster and faster, until the Pillar of Raya bursts out with a thick blue energy beam that shoots straight into the sky.

Jetro quickly stood further away and took a look - "Huh, it's okay, the roof is not damaged."

The energy rushing towards the sky did not cause any real damage. It broke into the clouds and disappeared from people's sight. In an instant, Yetro suddenly felt that his connection with all known star clusters in the world of consciousness was clear. He began to try to communicate with the star cluster that Thorad represented——

"Thorad, can you hear me?"

"Jetro?!" Thorad, who was driving the carriage at a speeding speed, almost exclaimed, and immediately responded with consciousness in his mind, "I can hear it."

"Long time no see, almost a year, how far have things progressed?"

"We obtained the psychic control medium from Sander and took a hostage hostage. We are going to release... her in the town of Relda seven days later. But after releasing her, Sander will definitely send troops to encircle us. I can only try to delay it.”

At the hotel, Jetro yelled: "Bring me a map! A map of the Old World!"

Someone rushed away, rushed back, took a map and spread it on the ground. Yetro discovered the town of Relda in the southeast of the Doin River Fortress, which was a gray area built on the delta.

"I understand, I will send someone to pick you up. I wish you well..." Before Jetro finished delivering his words, he felt that the link with Thorad's star cluster was broken. He looked up at the Pillar of Raya and found that the energy beam soaring into the sky had disappeared.

…

Sander Hill stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows that overlooked the end of the city, and the night wind made his torn shirt rustle. He stood for a long time, watching the carriage disappear from the end of the field of vision. He was a little lost and a little depressed. For the first time, he tasted the feeling of the person he loved leaving him. He savored this feeling, novel and strange, but Infuriating enough to want to - destroy the world -

"Body bag, it's time for you to wake up."

…

Somewhere in the valley, there are piles of corpses; a pile of corpses slowly rises; corpses are scattered in all directions and slide down; corpses are covered with dragon heads, and they wake up in blood.
