"Are you sure you read it right?"
When Iron Axe heard the news, a rare look of surprise appeared on his face. He and Edith looked at each other, and both sides could see the shock in each other's eyes.
In fact, Tilly was also quite hesitant to tell the commander of the First Army of this discovery without finding out the truth. After all, this move is close to a miracle. If the devil can really do this, it will definitely have a negative impact on the morale and confidence of the high-level people. It is not surprising that people who are not determined will surrender.
"Everyone is absolutely right," Maisie patted her chest and said, "Lightning and I have been to the Continental Spine, and there is no such shape of mountain there!"
Lightning then nodded slowly, "Whether it was made by the devil, we can't say for now, but at least one thing is certain, it only appeared there in the last half month."
"I see..." Edith said thoughtfully, "It makes sense now."
"Do you believe it?" Tilly was greatly surprised.
She thought that it would take a while for the other party to digest this information, and then arrange the next observation operation to confirm, but she did not expect that the Pearl of the North seemed to have accepted their statement. Even the three they saw with their own eyes took a lot of time. It took a lot of work to reach a consensus that "that's not an illusion."
"If you want to blame Roland, you can blame Roland." Edith sighed, "If it were three years ago, I would have regarded such words as the ravings of lunatics... But now, no matter what happens, I don't think it is impossible. If you stay in a small place like before, you can't realize that the world has changed drastically."
"In addition, the devil's unreasonable actions are also equivalent to confirming this." She paused and briefly recounted the information Hill Fox had obtained, "The noble city cannot accommodate such a large population, a floating land Not necessarily."
"The devil... accommodates humans?" Lightning asked in surprise.
"This is not without precedent. Didn't Agatha say that during the first battle of divine will, some humans formed a 'coalition' with the devil to deal with witches together." Edith shrugged indifferently, "At that time, what they feared was the power of witches, but now it's just the power of His Majesty Roland. They are neither willing to accept change nor willing to be part of the change, so what they can do is very limited."
"They didn't take the warning of the Battle of Divine Will seriously..." Tilly couldn't help clenching her fists.
"No..." Edith showed a weird smile, "Even if the nobles knew it was true, it was still possible to make the same decision. The end of the war is likely to be years or decades later, but His Majesty abolished the power of the nobles. , the recovery of the enfeoffed land is what is happening now. For some people, it is no different from killing them, one is to die immediately, the other is to die later, of course, the latter is better."
"Okay," Iron Axe interrupted helplessly. He knows that once the Northland Pearl enters the taunting mode, it will not stop easily, and it is easy to accidentally hurt others, even himself. "Let's get down to business, the key is, how do we deal with a flying land?"
Edith's expression returned to normal, "No, we can't deal with it. It's fine if it just stays on the spine of the continent, but if that thing really moved from somewhere else, we're in big trouble. Hundred kilometers was observed by His Royal Highness Tilly, and its size may exceed our imagination. Do you think the Skyfire alone can destroy a corner of the desperate mountains?"
"I must inform my brother about this as soon as possible." Tilly said solemnly.
"I think so too," Edith nodded. "This has nothing to do with conspiracy or strategy. The only one who can come up with a solution is His Majesty Roland."
"It's a pity that the new communication tower is still under construction. Otherwise, according to the installer's statement, this thing will allow us to talk to His Majesty immediately." Iron Axe immediately walked to the desk, picked up the pen and started writing, "Anyway, Let's use the flying messenger to send the message back first."
"No, I'll run this trip." Tilly stood up and said, "At the speed of the Phoenix, it will leave early tomorrow morning and arrive at Neverwinter City at noon, which is faster than any messenger. …I just wanted to say thank you for his new gift."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Lightning and Maisie, "The investigation west of the Desperate Mountains, please both of you."
"Leave it to us," the two replied earnestly.
…
The next day, Tilly set off alone in the Phoenix, first approaching the sea in the east, then heading south along the coastline, and landed in the Royal Capital Aerial Knight Academy in less than four hours.
On this day, many people witnessed the red meteor passing through the sky.
She jumped out of the plane and ran all the way, and rushed into the castle in three steps and two steps. When she saw the flying gray hair, none of the guards dared to stop her.
Pushing open the office door, Roland blinked in surprise, apparently not expecting her to appear at this time.
"Uh...is there something wrong with the new plane?"
Tilly's footsteps stagnated, and she felt a little guilt in her heart. Did she push him so hard that she asked about the plane first as soon as she opened her mouth? "No, the special machine... I mean the Phoenix is better than I expected, that... thank you, brother."
"Huh," Roland breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression soon became solemn again, "Then you came back because... there is important information?"
"That's right, when I was testing the Phoenix, I accidentally discovered the movement of the devil." Tilly recounted the experience of the three in detail.
Roland couldn't help frowning after hearing this. For an object to be seen from a long distance, in addition to the absence of obstructions in the light path, another element is to be large enough, such as the moon and stars overhead. Hundreds of kilometers away, even the Extremis Mountains are just a thick line that twists and turns, and the mainland spine is just a gray "hill". It can be observed at this distance, and this thing will definitely not be small. go.
Does the devil now have the ability to move such a large piece of land into the sky
Know that this is something that modern technology cannot do.
If it is really a solid piece of land, then the kill of any existing weapons will be greatly reduced. This is determined by the physical properties, and the ability to float a huge weight means amazing energy in itself.
Magic really doesn't make sense...
However, Roland has deeply understood this since he saw Anna, and now the most urgent task is to further explore the information of this behemoth.
He thought of an excellent candidate.
Entering the dream, Roland took out the phone and pressed Vakiris' number.
