The Star Knight - 150. Chapter One Hundred and Fifty
Today’s King’s Wharf seems a bit different. The breeze is cool after nightfall, and the laughter of adventurers and the crazy screams of drunken people in the whole city are much less.
Most importantly, there are almost no homeless people playing music on the street.
“The end is coming—” someone shouted, “The last crazy age.”
Opal and Raymond wandered for a night, they fell asleep in the holiday attic, three lavender crescent moons in the sky, the two galaxy light belts of the Lion galaxy traverse the middle of the sky, Opal is resting on Raymond’s strong arms, low. Snoring.
Outside the attic is the bottomless abyss of destiny, with blue light faintly flickering at night, as if countless fireflies fly out of this pit leading to another world, Raymond kept his eyes open, and glanced sideways at Opal in the middle of the night.
Every night passed in this quiet, Opal was sleeping, Raymond watched Opal sleeping, and after a while he got up, Opal woke up immediately.
“Where?” Opal asked sleepily.
“Go down and take a look.” Raymond said: “The bottom of the abyss.”
Opal said: “Let’s go together tomorrow.”
Raymond said: “I’ll check the environment first. I don’t need to sleep anyway. I will come up to find you where I can’t go.”
Opal slept dizzy and said: “Take Phoenix.” Then he fell down again.
Raymond said: “No, I will call you if I have trouble.”
Opal said: “Then let E7 accompany you.”
Raymond said: “Well, I’ll go back and get it.”
Opal replied, holding the pillow to sleep, Raymond put on his jacket and got up. The Abyss of Destiny is not as dangerous as an alien planet. After all, it is the local area of King’s Wharf. For thousands of years, enthusiastic adventurers have The home planet has turned upside down countless times, and apart from the alien species brought by the Dark Ages, there is almost no unknown danger.
Raymond returned to the apron and brought both E7 and Xiao Q out. He entered through the big gap in the south of the abyss, walked down the steps, and stood on a floating stone slab. The necklace on his chest seemed to sense the blue fluorite and blue light at the bottom of the abyss. Turning away, reflecting on his face.
The taverns outside were all closed, the King’s Wharf entered late at night, and sixteen Royal Air Force warships entered the atmosphere and landed on the ground with tail fires.
Opal woke up suddenly from his sleep, opened his eyes, and his sleepiness disappeared.
He hadn’t tried to be woken up like this for a long time, as if feeling something extremely important was happening.
“Raymond?” Opal put on ear buckles and asked.
“Wake up?” Raymond asked.
Opal glanced at the time, one in the middle of the night.
Opal: “Where are you?”
Raymond: “Just arrived at the second floor. What happened?”
Opal always felt a little restless, and said after a moment: “You continue, I will go to the association to see.”
There was a sound from outside, and it seemed that many adventurers woke up. Opal didn’t care about putting on clothes. He only pushed the door in shorts and found all the taverns on Maple Leaf Island. The inn lights up again.
Many shirtless adventurers walked out of the room and stood on the balcony.
A crimson appeared in the night sky, thousands of imperial warships entered the atmosphere, adventurers whispered to each other, Opal said: “What’s the situation?”
Everyone looked at the night sky, and the man on the opposite terrace said: “The Empire has begun to use armed threats, and Douglas can’t hold it.”
“He must have a back hand.” Someone said: “The bureau can’t be so stupid.”
“It’s a curfew!” The hotel owner came out and shouted: “I received a notice from the association that the whole city will have a curfew starting today. Let’s go back. Don’t make it difficult for us!”
“Your grandma’s!” someone scolded: “Don’t make trouble!”
More and more warships blocked the outer atmosphere of King’s Wharf.
“I can’t make a commission tomorrow!” Someone shouted helplessly: “Everyone, get ready for a vacation.”
Everyone laughed and dispersed. Opal couldn’t laugh or cry, but felt that this group of adventurers really feared that the world would not be chaotic. If the fiery star is changed, now all the mercenaries must be running towards the Battle Soul Building one after another, holding weapons to defend the territory. .
However, even so, Opal couldn’t let go of it. Phoenix turned into a red sports car, and Opal jumped into the car and drove to the association quickly.
There was a circle of large suspended warships outside the association, opal got off the car, and a guard immediately said: “Don’t go in! You can only get in and you can’t go out. Maybe you will be placed under house arrest before the chairman resolves the negotiation!”
“It’s okay, I came with my consciousness, buddy!”
Opal ran into the association, slowed down and stood still.
Surrounded by high-level adventurers, lights were on in the hall, and many people outside the association were watching. No one spoke, it was like a solemn mourning.
In the center of the hall stood Wen Li, the chief of the intelligence department, and another man of unclear age. He was wearing white gloves and his military cap was covering his face. There is a hazy and dangerous aura.
“Introduce yourself.” The man said: “The commander-in-chief of the First Empire Army Corps, the deputy headmaster of the Changqi Air Force Academy, and Bennings, the security director of the outer galaxy region of the Leo Galaxy. I believe everyone present has heard my name.”
The adventurers did not speak, Opal couldn’t help but probe their thoughts with the power of faith, and got a common idea: [This person is difficult to touch. 】
There must be enough people who can hold him in order for the peace talks to go smoothly.
Otherwise, the China Aerospace Association will be in big trouble this time.
“Yesterday we learned that there was a murder criminal who hid in the DAAA.” Bennings said casually: “It’s a big deal. The whole star can only be sealed off and the association starts the search.”
Douglas said: “General, King’s Wharf has always been outside the laws of all countries. It only abides by the Star Covenant Convention and enters the Great Astronautical Association, which is equivalent to…”
“Your Excellency.” Bennings said: “I remember that in the era of Horius, the Aerospace Association had another rule, that is, when a crime involves the safety of the ethnic group, the human army has the right to investigate dangerous elements.”
Douglas tapped the ground with a cane, groaning silently.
Vice Chairman Sen took off his hat and greeted Douglas, saying: “But as far as I know, this rule will only take effect when all the members of the presidium are present. It is necessary to supervise the army to conduct investigations when all members of the presidium of the Association of Large Astronautics are present. This rule was proposed when Horius assisted in the defense of King’s Wharf in Guangxi 14270.”
Douglas said, “Thank you, Sen, I remember.”
Bennings said: “Then the fourteen members of the presidium will be recalled for assistance.”
“Can I ask what is the specific situation?” a young adventurer said: “What kind of person do I need to find? What are the characteristics?”
Bennings said: “A murderer who looks unknown.”
“Who killed.” Another senior adventurer asked: “The identity of the dead?”
“It must be kept secret at the moment.” Bennings said: “I can only explain to you after all the members of the presidium are here. Chairman Douglas, I will give you one hour to recall everyone, including the big and small ace. After an hour, forgive me. I can’t wait any longer and will order a search of the whole star. Don’t use the excuse of being uneven. I am also ordered to act.”
“On whose order?” Opal said.
Bennings glanced at him and didn’t seem to have much interest in him. Opal immediately cut into his thoughts and read one thing-Ledgerson is dead!
“Following the order of Emperor Kartes.” Bennings said.
There is nothing more shocking than the news of Ledgerson’s death. Opal turned around subconsciously and walked to Douglas. Bennings said, “There are still fifty-nine minutes and fifteen seconds. We’re waiting here. I know those above J Adventurers have jump ships, and it’s not difficult to get back to the headquarters in an hour.”
“No need.” Douglas thoughtfully: “The presidium is all here, you can say it, General.”
Bannings said: “The metabolism of King’s Wharf is too fast. I don’t know too many people. How about introducing myself first?”
There are only twelve people around Douglas. Opal can’t help but wonder, where are the big and small trump cards? People are uneven.
“Cube J Ares Rotman.” Ares said lazily.
“Plum J Lille Andores.” Another adventurer took off his hat and said: “I will serve you wholeheartedly, General.”
The members of the presidium introduced one by one and showed the color card.
“Kana Ryuhama of spades.” The middle-aged adventurer with the biggest suit flashed his suit card.
“Ace of big and small.” Bennings said, “You are not all the same, Chairman.”
“Little ace.” Douglas showed his suit card: “Benjamin Douglas.”
A familiar voice came from the revolving escalator leading to the second floor in the center of the hall.
“Big trump card.” A man pressed the brim of his hat very low, holding his suit card.
In an instant, everyone took a step back, but Bennings was still standing there, with a sly smile on his lips.
“Corolin Shacks.” Corolin politely walked down the escalator, stood beside everyone, and said, “Bannings, I heard that you are a wife who is afraid of your wife. If you leave the China Aerospace Association, it will definitely make you go home and kneel and use the brain processor…”
Suddenly all the adventurers laughed, and the eyes of more people were full of shock and suspicion.
With just one sentence, Cololin suffocated the audience. He took off his hat politely and said with a smile: “So, in line with the principles of peace and friendship of the China Aerospace Association, now, the grand ace leads all the members of the presidium to serve you wholeheartedly. .”
Bannings said: “The Association of Great Astronautics really colluded with Iszul.”
Coralin said: “You must have admitted the wrong person, Bennings, what is Iszul? This is a fake card. What does it have to do with Iszul?”
Bennings snorted coldly and said, “There will always be a resolution, sir, start searching now.”
Douglas said: “General, please remove all your guards, otherwise we cannot cooperate with the investigation.”
Bennings was silent for a moment, and Cololin’s appearance was unexpected, but it was also expected. This hand disrupted his arrangement, so he had to whisper a few words to Sally.
The warships outside the association slowly withdrew and retreated out of the atmosphere.
When Opal was about to pass, Cololin’s fingers moved slightly, and his voice sounded in his mind: “Go and assist Raymond immediately to reach the last level of the abyss of destiny as quickly as possible. Remember, use your beliefs to break through everything. Obstacles. After completing the entrustment, I will assist the teacher. He has already sent you the space coordinates.”
Opal took a few steps backwards, turned and left the Association of Large Astronautics, and left through the back door. The guards had all been withdrawn. He sat on Phoenix, flew to the abyss of destiny, and slowly descended.
The first floor of the Abyss of Destiny: Ancient Ruins Survey Center.
It has become a deserted place. Since 18013, King’s Wharf has not been developed.
The second layer: Rocky Star Ecosphere.
The third layer: Forest Star Ecosystem.
The fourth layer: where the civilization trajectory remains.
The red sports car descended in the sky, and searchlights illuminated the surrounding murals. At the end of the dark age, almost the entire universe was fleeing, taking refuge towards the King’s Wharf, the Fiery Star, and the Carina. The fighters went to the Lie Star, the followers sought refuge under Gleibini’s glory, while the civilians dragged their families with their mouths and fled to the Greater Astronautical Association.
King’s Wharf played a more inclusive role than Lie Xing at this moment. All refugees were treated equally, and under the joint efforts of Horius and Rekert, they were evacuated from the occupied hell. However, when they withdrew into the abyss of destiny, the moment they looked at the battlefield in the sky with anxiety and anxiety.
But saw the fall of Horius.
Raymond stood in front of a mural, the blue necklace on his chest shimmering, E7 and Xiao Q were studying a marble at Raymond’s feet.
“Here?” Raymond said, “How is the situation?”
Opal said: “Cololin is here, he is actually the big trump card.”
Raymond nodded, and Opal said: “He asked us to hurry up and go to the bottom. I guess there are Horius’ relics inside, which can assist the teacher.”
Raymond said: “Look at this.”
On the mural painted by laser, a ball of fire fell to the ground, with the year, month, and day below:
【10,12,13790. Horius was killed in action. 】
Opal said: “In the end, King’s Wharf was held.”
Raymond said: “He and Kalbu die together.”
The two of them passed the stairs on the fifth and sixth floors. From this floor, it is already a completely enclosed area. No adventurer will come here to explore. First, the environment is too dangerous to be worthwhile. Second, come to Huoliu. The generals of Si and the Dark Ages sleep here, and no one dares to disturb the heroes of mankind.
“What do you think his beliefs are?” Raymond said.
“Then only ask him to know.” Opal walked down, and E7 turned on the searchlight, illuminating a small area around it.
