Sword of Dawn

Andal on the side sighed: "Anyway, don't play word solitaire anymore."

Heragor shook his head and said while thinking: "I need to think about what we are going to do next, this wasteland... We are probably the last remaining proto-dragons, Omega should already……"

"Wait, Heragor," Andal interrupted him suddenly. The old black dragon raised his head and stared at the distant sky. "You just said that we are probably the last remaining proto-dragons?"

"Ok?"

"It seems that something is flying over." Andal raised a giant wing, pointing to a certain direction in the sky, "...doesn't it look familiar to you?"

In the distant sky, a huge and old black dragon was approaching rapidly, and a smaller blue dragon was flying behind the black dragon. They had obviously discovered the crash crater on the ground, and they all sped up their speed in a swooping speed. The posture rushed to this side.

Beside the crash crater, Andal, Heragor, and Baloger all saw figures appearing in the sky, and except for Balogar who had not returned to Tarrond for many years, the other two "persons" He had even identified the identities of the two figures visually.Heragor stared at the sky, a trace of complex emotion suddenly appeared in the citrine eyes: "...Maybe, what we see are just the nodes of Omega..."

As soon as this remark came out, both Andal and Baloger fell silent in unison. They both knew all the original instructions of Omega, and naturally they also knew what would happen after this final battle ended—in order to avoid "" "Human nature" to prevent Omega from producing a "heart" and establishing a connection with the gods. They set up Omega's operating logic millions of years ago, and the latter will use the most efficient, precise and ruthless However, the future of the entire Dragon Clan will be judged by Omega’s AI—in the simulated feedback generated by thousands of trial runs, Omega has executed the plan to erase the minds of all Dragon Clan without hesitation...

Amidst the complicated emotions, the three ancient dragons watched the two figures flying closer and closer from afar, and watched them slow down at low altitude and gradually approach the ground. They saw that the old black dragon was stable and stable. It landed in the ruins, but the blue dragon seemed to have missed the landing point of its feet, stepped on the air between the ruined walls, and scrambled to land in front of Baloger.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Baloger turned his head slightly and looked at the silent Heragor.

"Why do I feel like this doesn't look like an Omega node?"

Chapter 1050 Further unlocking

Melita has to admit that this is the most embarrassing and dragon-losing landing since she broke her shell—although her landing accident rate has always been relatively high among her peers due to some carelessness or occasional failure of visual components, but It was really the first time that he appeared in front of Speaker Andal with such a rolling and crawling attitude.

There is no doubt that this is all due to the malfunction of the implant. It is the disappearance of the Omega system that has led to the shutdown of various auxiliary implants, and it is the incompatibility caused by leaving the vision enhancement system...

But no matter what, the embarrassment and pain caused by a failed landing disappeared in the next moment-when she saw the familiar old dragon with implants all over her body, Melita's mind was only Surprise and astonishment.

The Andal Chancellor is still alive, and even the High Priestess of Heragor is alive.

Three giant dragons appeared next to the huge crash crater, two of them were very familiar to Melita and believed to have died in the final battle, but she didn't know Baloger—the Dragon Blood Grand Duke The true identity is a secret to 90.00% of the dragons in Tarrond, even Melita, who is a member of the jury, is no exception.

……

It took a long time for Heragore, Andal, and Baloger to learn about the general situation of Tarrond from Melita and Duke Moore, and to understand what happened after they left this planet. Changes in the earth.

"I really didn't expect... to see you come back alive," Duke Moore looked at the three old friends who appeared in front of him with complicated and inexplicable eyes—he was one of the few ancient giants left in Tarrond. One of the dragons, however, during the final rite of passage, he stayed on the planet to fight against the god-induced disaster.As one of the ancient rebels, he has no regrets about such an arrangement, but his fate still makes him feel full of emotion at this stage, "This is a miracle among miracles."

"We didn't expect to come back, let alone see you 'alive', Duke Moore," Heragor also said with emotion, "So...all the surviving compatriots have regained their self-awareness? And Omega left Tarrond after freeing the minds of all dragons?"

"It seems to be like this at the moment," Duke Moore lowered his huge head, and the red light in the mechanical prosthetic eyes dimmed, "Although there are very few surviving compatriots, everyone has woken up. As for the Omega system... now we There is no way to determine what happened to those computing nodes buried deep in the ground, but we have unearthed some urban service lines and factory information processing stations distributed on the surface, a small part of which can still function, and are connected to the main network through those lines. At that time, we discovered the 'disappearance' of Omega. Judging from the few feedback signals, it seems that the computing nodes deep in the ground are still 'alive', but the Omega system that should have been running in the nodes has disappeared. "

Duke Moore's description made Melita on the side couldn't help thinking that "the body is still there, but the soul has left", and then she felt that her association was a bit weird: the Omega system is a super AI, it really... ...has a soul?

While Melita was thinking wildly, Baloger on the side thought of their bizarre encounter in space. The ancient mechanic looked at Duke Moore: "Do you know how we got back?"

Duke Moore immediately said: "I wanted to ask just now..."

"We were rescued by a weird...existence," Balogar said in a deep voice, "he passed by our spaceship, and he looked like a strange dragon made of steel, although his figure flashed by, The shape also looks very strange, but I can tell that many features on him come from Tarrond, from our race..."

Andal on the side rested for a while, and then he took up the topic in a low tone: "He came from this planet, and finally disappeared in the depths of the vast universe."

"You mean..." Duke Moore's eyes widened suddenly, he finally realized the deep meaning in the words of his old friend in front of him, but the possibility revealed by these words made him dumbfounded, "What you met is ...Omega?! But this is impossible...why...this does not conform to the logic of Omega's behavior..."

"Yes, it doesn't conform to the logic of his behavior," Heragor said softly, "According to our original instructions, he should eliminate all dragon minds immediately after the final battle to prevent the mind stamp from being rebuilt. , according to the instruction, he should perform a second cleanup to prevent the thought trend from reappearing, according to the instruction, he should not take any new actions after completing this final task, but quietly wait for the system to disintegrate on its own...but he didn't In doing so, he did something that was not programmed, and even... chose to leave this planet."

"It sounds...as if he had a 'heart'," Duke Moore whispered to himself, and suddenly couldn't help shaking, "I feel shuddering."

"Shiver? I don't feel that way," Heragor shook his head. "I'm thinking of something else now."

Duke Moore cast a curious look: "Other things?"

"Omega's 'variables' cannot be created out of thin air, someone must have exerted influence on him, and this influence occurs at the bottom of the logic library," Heragor said calmly, "We are here for Omega The program set by Ga is based on our knowledge of the gods. In order to avoid all hidden dangers as much as possible, we have pushed all the conditions to the limit - but this does not mean that we have to reach this 'limit', we have done so Extreme, but out of fear of failure.

"It turns out that Omega didn't reach this 'limit' in the final stage, he didn't eliminate all the dragon minds, he even saved the three of us back, and his actions... didn't lead to failure.

"We still won, even though we were prepared to gamble everything, and in the end we didn't really sacrifice everything, as if an invisible hand fiddled with a very, very narrow line between life and death, Then we adjusted our plan that was too rough and simple, and saved us a glimmer of life from the original doomed ending."

Heragor spoke slowly. He is the oldest leader and rebel of the Dragon Clan, and the priest who is closest to and understands the gods in Tarrond. Listening to his word-by-word analysis, Andal and others have already agreed After falling silent, each of them showed a pensive look, only Melita still seemed a little confused - she felt that she seemed to understand something, but she didn't fully understand what happened.

Heragor paused. In the twilight glow, it seemed like it took him a long time to break his silence: "That hand... understands the gods better than us rebels who have been thinking for 1807 million years."

Andal was silent for a long time before whispering in a hoarse voice: "Indeed, there is no existence in the world who understands gods better than him."

Melita blinked her eyes, her huge and crystal-clear eyes were obviously confused. She looked at the leaders, hesitated for a long time before asking cautiously: "What are you talking about?"

"It's nothing, you will understand later, we have to pay attention to other things now," Andal looked at Melita and shook his head slightly. The old dragon slowly propped up his huge body, and looked at The direction of Agondor in the past, "You established a temporary shelter near Agondor, didn't you?"

"Yes," Melita nodded hastily, "Elder Duke Moore summoned the original survivors, but Calador is in charge of the specific affairs of the camp now..."

"Ah, Calador, he is still alive... I have the impression that he is outstanding," Andal said, and slowly opened his huge dragon wings, "but in the current situation, no matter how outstanding a dragon is, it needs More helpers. We need to go to that temporary shelter as soon as possible, with more help, maybe more compatriots will survive.”

"Can you still fly normally?" Duke Moore glanced at Andal, "After the Omega system went offline, many implants became unusable, and even I underwent surgery to remove many faulty implants. Only barely regained the ability to move freely - you have as many implants as I do, and you just had a crash."

"It's a forced landing, my old friend, it's a forced landing," Baloger immediately said aside, "Also, don't ignore the basic skills of a senior mechanic—I have already adjusted the implants on Andal's body. , malfunctioning and shutting down devices have been dismantled or shielded, and I'm sure he can fly around Tarrond now."

Andal couldn't help but glanced at Baloger, and then suddenly showed a free and easy smile: "He said he can, then he can."

"Well, I believe that the most outstanding mechanic ever in Tarrond—even though this mechanic has not touched the contemporary machinery in Tarrond for many years," Duke Moore shook his huge head, He raised his head and looked in the direction of the temporary shelter, "And I don't need you to go around Tarrond... Our camp is on the other side of that cliff."

……

"This is all the situation we have so far." In the holographic projection projected by the magic net terminal, the Duchess Victoria maintained her usual calm expression, and reported to Gao Wen the latest observations on the northern border in the past 24 hours. As a result, "According to several sea and air reconnaissances as close as possible, we can confirm that the eternal storm has completely disappeared, and now there is still a strong annular current in the original sea area, and there are many unstable sea cyclones nearby. At the same time, large-scale rainfall and huge waves were triggered. These should be natural phenomena caused by the residual magic power after the eternal storm dissipated.

"At present, the above-mentioned phenomena are also fading rapidly. It is estimated that in half a month at most, all traces of the eternal storm will disappear-of course, after this storm disappears, there will be many long-term meteorological influences, ocean currents and maritime climate. changes, and these 'marks' should last a long time, possibly even permanently."

Gawain sat behind his desk, listening to Victoria's report, but couldn't help but think of the past trip to Tarrond in his mind, and recalled what he experienced when riding through the storm on Melita's back. everything of.

He thought of the ancient battlefield hidden in the gap between time and space at the base of the storm, those frozen dragons, gods, and the ancient "relics" at the center of the maelstrom.

Others may not know it, but he is very clear that the eternal storm is maintained by the strange stagnant time-space... those ancient forces entrenched in that sea area, which led to the never-dissipating cloud wall and vortex.

But now, this sustaining force has apparently disappeared.

"Your Majesty, do we want to investigate further?" Victoria's voice woke Gawain from his thoughts, and the Duchess had a serious expression on her face—of course, she had this expression most of the time, "The sea in Beigang The demon and the naga said that they can try to approach that sea area from the bottom of the sea, maybe they can find something."

"They are willing to help?" Gawain was a little surprised, but then he showed a look of surprise, "Of course it's good, we really need further investigation."

——The sea area after the storm dissipates is still very dangerous. It is still difficult for Cecil's current ships and aircraft to operate safely in the open sea, but the Kraken and Naga who originally lived in the deep sea should be able to ignore the "natural threat" after the storm dissipates ", they are willing to take the initiative to help, of course it would be great.

"I see," Victoria nodded, "Then I will arrange it."

Gao Wen hummed, then raised his head again: "Is there anything else going on?"

"I don't have anything here," Victoria said, "but Duke Baldwin should still have something to do."

Gawain nodded, and after finishing the communication with Victoria, he connected with Ten Forest City in the western region, and the elegant and elegant Duke of the western region, Baldwin Franklin, immediately appeared in the holographic projection.

"Good afternoon, Your Majesty."

"Good afternoon, Grand Consul," Gao Wen nodded to Baldwin in the projection, "What's the situation with you?"

"Information from the Ogure tribal country, the magic technicians we sent there to assist the locals in setting up the main hub of the magic net have heard something interesting." Baldwin Franklin said with a serious expression.

"Concerning circumstances?"

"Yes, Your Majesty—according to the report of the technicians, the project of setting up the main hub of the magic net in the Ancestor's Peak area has officially started, but since the first test magic obelisk was turned on, the device installed on the top of the mountain has been Frequently received interference signals from unknown sources, after a preliminary comparison... Those interference signals are similar to the signals we received in the Solin area and Winter Castle."

Gao Wen's eyes widened in surprise and surprise, and he leaned over subconsciously: "The signal was also received at the Ancestor's Peak?! And it was received by the testing equipment?"

"Yes, low-power test machines," Baldwin Franklin nodded, "they received a high signal strength, but mixed with a lot of 'noise', which is different from what we have encountered so far There is a big difference. The magician technicians stationed at the Ancestor Peak have sent back the samples of the signal, but the 'impurities' in those samples are too serious, and the technicians of Shilin City can't handle it. Pass it to the neural network, and hopefully the Imperial Computing Center will filter out those annoying clutter."

Chapter 1051

Listening to what Baldwin Franklin reported, Gawain's thoughts have gradually spread——

The intelligence from the Ogure Tribal State confirmed one of his previous guesses: the mysterious signals detected by Fort Winter and Fort Solin were not limited to Cecil!

On the other side, Baldwin's report had come to an end, and he looked at Gawain, "Your Majesty, in addition, we have also received a letter from the Dwarf Kingdom delivered by Wenna, the leader of the gray elves. Don Molten sends you greetings, and agrees to the meeting invitation at Silver Outpost No. 112 at the Recovery Festival next month, and Forge City will send ambassador Paladin Huishanyan to attend the meeting."

"...Have the dwarves finally made an official response?" Gawain heaved a sigh of relief, "It seems that our restart of the sea route has indeed encouraged their confidence in participating in mainland affairs..."

The kingdom of dwarves is a mysterious country located in the westernmost part of the road. Although its land is closely connected with the Loren continent, its entire country is completely enclosed by a natural arc-shaped mountain range. It has always blocked the curious sights of the mainland countries, and also blocked the residents on the other side of the mountains.

For a long time, the dwarves have lived a self-sufficient life on the other side of the mountains. It is said that their kingdom has abundant output and a unique climate. Even if they do not communicate with other countries on the mainland, they can maintain prosperity. It is said that they Developed a completely different technology and culture from other countries in the continent, and even retained many ancient traditions before the first pioneering - but all these are just idle guesses of the world, and almost no one has really crossed the mountains to see Looking at the appearance of the dwarf kingdom, only some dwarves who voluntarily left the kingdom and came to the inland activities would occasionally mention their homeland to outsiders. In their descriptions, the forge city is magnificent, with iron stone hills full of gold and silver, and bright plains. Thousands of hectares of fertile land, picturesque scenery on the west coast...

After finishing the communication with the Duke of the Western Territory, the air near the desk was slightly rippling, and the figure of Amber emerged from it, with a look of interest on her face: "It is said that the mountains surrounding the dwarf kingdom are protected by ancient powers, outsiders As long as you enter the mountain, you will get lost, and finally return to the foot of the mountain in a daze, and only the dwarves hold the secret to cross the ridge safely, so only the dwarves have always come to the inland activities, and few people can enter their kingdom..."

"But in fact, the dwarf kingdom is not as mysterious as the legends say—although it does have little communication with other parts of the mainland, but hundreds of years ago, when humans were still able to explore the ocean, Ansu still had a relationship with the dwarves. Time is exchanged over the sea," Gao Wen said with a smile, "There are indeed many wonderful customs there, and the dwarves also have unique smelting techniques, but they are far from the level of 'like a different world' described in the legend."

"You also said that it was hundreds of years ago," Amber spread her hands, "For short-lived human beings, the barrier of hundreds of years is enough to turn a land that once established diplomatic relations into an incomprehensible foreign land."

"...It makes sense," Gao Wen thought for a while, and had to admit what Amber said, then suddenly remembered something, raised his head and asked, "Is there any clue to what I asked you to investigate before?"

"You mean about the 'Iron Man of Gondor'?" Amber immediately understood Gawain's meaning, she thought for a while, and the information collected in the recent period came to mind, "There are indeed some gains, but not What a breakthrough.

"First of all, it is about the identity of the 'Ms. Diana' in Typhon. It is currently confirmed that she is the leader of Typhon's special force 'Wanderer' - the rogue is an elite force directly loyal to the Typhon royal family. There are different subdivisions according to their functions. The positioning is similar to the Royal Shadow Guard in the Ansu era or the current Iron Rangers. They mainly perform special operations and internal and external intelligence tasks. The main combatants of the rogues are basically elites. They are combat mages who have undergone special combat training. Unlike ordinary mages, they have good performance in various actual combat conditions, including surprise attacks, assassinations, and close combat. This is somewhat similar to Gondor in historical records. The "Mage Soldiers" of the period, obviously, this special soldier is the result of the training of the Iron Man of Gondor himself.

"Secondly, we have also established that Diana has indeed long been loyal to the Augustus family, but she seems to be loyal only to the position of 'Emperor'. She does not side with any political forces, does not support any heirs who have not yet been crowned, and does not There's a faction involved. I suspect it has something to do with the pact she made with the royal family of the day after she was 'restored' by Typhon scholars hundreds of years ago.

"The above two pieces of information can be summarized and collected from public channels, and the third one is more interesting...it is the 'windfall' from the '25th'..."

While talking, Amber fumbled a few times from her bag, took out a piece of carefully folded paper, and unfolded it in front of Gao Wen.

It turned out to be information from Daniel?Gao Wen was a little surprised for a moment, he didn't expect that Daniel would get information related to that "Diana", and then his eyes were attracted by what Amber showed——

On the unfolded white paper, what is depicted is not some ancient Gondor's technical secrets or the contemporary Typhon's secret deployment, but a picture like a child's graffiti: a dozen ink dots seem to be arranged in an irregular manner. Spread on the paper, a small circle of unknown meaning was drawn in the middle of the ink dots, and one by one, like radial lines, connected between the dozen or so ink dots and the central circle, the whole picture looked... as if A graffiti-failed, out-of-scale sun surrounded by abstract rays.

"What is this?" Gao Wen was confused by the picture, "Is it some kind of abstract painting?"

"This is the 'work' of that 'Ms. Diana', and it is also the only 'painting' that she usually 'creates'," Amber put the unfolded paper on Gao Wen's desk, with a strange look on her face , "This sounds very strange. In fact, 'No. 25' didn't understand it either. He also learned about it from the president of the Typhon Royal Mages Association through a coincidence——

"The head maid in the Obsidian Palace, Ms. Diana who 'never makes a mistake and is always vigilant', occasionally makes strange moves when she is alone. She will find a pen and paper to scribble on. The content of the graffiti is always like this Drawings, one after another, over and over again... No one knows why she did it, not even she seems to understand it. Most of these graffiti will be destroyed in the first place, but a few seem to be It was forgotten by her, and fell into the hands of the curious few who were qualified to enter Obsidian Palace."

"This is really... something unexpected." Gao Wen frowned slightly, looking at the graffiti on the table, he couldn't see through the deep meaning of this painting, and only some paintings that seemed to be out of touch with the current world style emerged in his mind. Matching associations: the unconscious "creation" behavior after AI breaks through the limit, the mysterious graffiti of out-of-control robots, the information reappearance caused by the memory error of ancient machine servants...

"Is this the exact figure of those graffiti? Or is it a 'conceptual drawing' drawn out of impression?" Gawain raised his head and asked curiously.

"Number 25 said that this picture has a restoration rate of more than [-]%," Amber nodded, "at most there are a few errors in the proportion of some lines."

"Have you shown this thing to Kamel and Veronica?" Gawain asked again, "They come from the age of Gondor, maybe there will be some clues."

"I've seen it, but they don't understand." Amber shook her head, "Kamel thinks that this thing may be an abstract expression of some ancient rune array, but Veronica suspects that this is the same as Diana's in Vip Langton Observatory service, but they are all just speculation."

"...Diana is an Iron Man of Gondor who has lost part of her memory, and those memories are related to her experience of leaving the Viplandon Observatory. These images may reveal some 'impressions' deep in her memory, but for the lack For observers of information, they are just meaningless graffiti," Gao Wen said while thinking, "...I am very interested in the secret of the Iron Man of Gondor, so I uploaded this picture to the neural network to keep it secret. Under the conditions, it is left to the analysis team under the separation of Megoll III and Selina Geer to identify and see if there is any similarity between any known objects and this graffiti."

Amber nodded: "Okay, I'll do it when I get back."

She put away the paper while agreeing, and then noticed that Gao Wen seemed to be thinking about other things, and he was still unconsciously turning a small silver-white ring in his hand. She quickly recognized the circle. What is the Ring: "Thinking about Tarrond again?"

"Still unable to contact the Mithril Treasury," Gao Wen nodded, threw the Mithril Ring in his hand on the table, and watched the small ring bounce on the table, making a crisp sound, "With those gangs With the technical level of the giant dragon, it is impossible to repair a communication system for such a long time. With the "credibility" of Mithril Treasury for thousands of years, it is impossible to remain silent after losing contact with customers for such a long time. Now that the Eternal Storm has disappeared, according to all the information we have, it seems that something happened to Tarrond... and it is not a small matter."

"Are you worried about those giant dragons?" Amber blinked her eyes, "Actually, I don't think there is anything to worry about... That's a dragon, a dragon that is invincible no matter in legend or in reality, and can rush into it when a volcano erupts. Drink something hot, do we need to worry about this kind of tyrannical and unreasonable creature?"

"It is precisely because they are such a powerful ethnic group that I am particularly worried now—I am worried that some kind of unforeseen disaster is brewing in the North Pole, and I am worried that it will affect the human world." Gawain shook his head, "Assuming a worst-case scenario, the whole Tarrond was shattered by some irresistible power—how powerful was that power?"

Amber was taken aback by Gao Wen's conjecture, her eyes widened: "This... shouldn't happen?"

"Assumptions, just assumptions," Gawain exhaled, "It's like there is a powerful giant standing in the distance, you clearly know that giant is there, you know how strong he is, and you know that he was fine just a second ago Yes, but suddenly the giant is gone, and because you are too far away, you can't see how he disappeared, and you can't see if he is under attack... At this time, you may worry about the safety of the giant, but you You should be more worried about whether the power that caused the disappearance of the giant is spreading to you."

Amber thought for a while, then immediately rubbed her arms: "...Hey, I feel goosebumps!"

"In the final analysis, it's because the information is not clear, so I can think wildly," Gao Wen sighed, and admitted that he was thinking wildly, "so I hope those enthusiastic sea monsters and naga in Beigang can investigate some clues, at least first. Find out what happened to the Eternal Storm."

……

The cold wind howled and slapped on the twisted and deformed steel frame and the temporary shelter wall. The heat source device dug out of the ruins gave off a warm orange-red light in the dim sky, radiating a wide range of constant temperature heat. The poorly connected projection device was placed in the corner of the camp, and several energy packs were connected to the base of the device. The picture in the holographic projection was blurred to the point where it was almost impossible to recognize, but intermittent music could still be heard from the base.

Several weak young dragons were lying on the open space next to the projection device. The failure of the implants in the whole body and the withdrawal reaction of the synergist were tormenting their spirits. The intermittent music sound from the device was currently supporting their Will, but this insignificant support is almost meaningless, and they still have to rely on their own tenacious will to survive this cold dusk.

This is not easy-for most dragons who used to live in the lower layer of Tarrond, what they have to face after completely getting rid of hallucinogens and synergists is not just mental pain. The severe burning pain that comes from the situation is a real physical injury.

After returning to the camp, Melita, who regained her human form, stood beside a boulder next to the wind shelter wall. Her lavender eyes watched those compatriots twitching in the cold wind. Her eyes fell on one of the young red dragons. , did not look away for a long time.

That was the young mechanic who performed implant surgery on her at noon today—she had been busy all day long, and with her efforts, more than a dozen compatriots avoided fatal injuries caused by implant failure and The pain eased, but when dusk fell she suffered a severe booster withdrawal...no one in the camp could help her.

The only booster stockpile in the shelter has been used to rescue the wounded.

Seemingly noticing Melita's gaze, the red dragon lying on the ground turned around and showed a self-deprecating smile in convulsions: "I shouldn't be so obsessed with 'soul' and 'ash' at the time...but at that time The sense of accomplishment and fulfillment they bring to me is really important..."

She mentioned the names of two stimulants that acted directly on the mind, and these two stimulants were flooded in lower Tarrond.

Melita let out a sigh. She didn't know how to answer the mechanic who used to live in the lower layer of Tarrond and was engaged in illegal modification of implants. She could only release another large-scale explosion Psychic Soothe - This spell had little effect on the symptoms of booster addiction, but the young mechanic gave her a grateful smile nonetheless.

Afterwards, Melita left this place as if fleeing.

Chapter 1052 A little light

"That's what we're dealing with right now."
