Looking forward to another world.

Chapter 576 The brewing storm
"Hey, did you hear that?"

"Last night, the city main building caught fire."

"Last night? Wasn't it this morning?"

"To be precise, it should be said that it was before dawn today."

"Isn't it? Is this news true?"

"Aren't you going to see it? The main hall of the city has been turned into ruins!"

"I saw it! It really turned into ruins!"

"No...don't you think this is absurd?"

"Yeah, what kind of fire can burn the main hall of the city into ruins?"

"There is the City Lord's Pavilion there. There are so many oasis knights, so many magicians, and even the City Lord himself. How could a fire burn down the City Lord's Pavilion?"

"I heard that this is a problem with the Ministry of Magic?"

"Ministry of Magic? Could it be that those magicians were researching something weird and caused the entire city hall to be burned?"

"It's not surprising. Those guys have criminal records. Didn't they accidentally blow up a research facility of the Ministry of Magic just to study magic bombs?"

"But this time it's the entire city main hall..."

"I still can't believe it's true..."

"That's right……"

Early in the morning in Sinyele, discussions like this appeared on all the streets and spread at an extremely fast speed.

The main building of the city was reduced to ruins and burned into a sea of ​​flames. Such news could not be hidden at all, and it quickly spread to the ears of every resident of Xinyel.

Some of the residents did not want to believe all this, some were dubious, and some even went directly to the main hall of the city, and did not believe it was true until they saw the burnt ruins.

All of a sudden, all kinds of gossip and rumors came and went, which caused a lot of turmoil in Xinyelle.

Some people are keenly aware of the problems here.

"The City Lord Hall was actually burned?"

"Impossible. With that person around, no matter how big an accident happens, it will be suppressed. It's impossible to burn the entire city hall into ruins, right?"

"But it did happen. The city main hall, which was in ruins, is located there, and it hasn't had time to clean it up yet."

"...There must be something going on here that we don't know about."

"No, I have to send someone to check."

As a result, various characters began to emerge.

Some of them are helpless people who are restricted by the city main hall and have limited mobility, and some are high-level officials of major forces. They were shocked and unbelievable when the city main hall was reduced to such a state, and then they sent people to investigate, intending to find out what happened. Everything that happens inside.

No one believed that the main building of the city would be burned due to an accidental fire.

With that city lord around, no matter how big an accident is, it won't make any waves.

Since this happened, it proved that there must have been some major incident, which caused the city lord to be unable to deal with it, and could only let the city lord's hall turn into a sea of ​​flames.

Aware of this, it is naturally impossible for many caring people to suppress the confusion and curiosity in their hearts, so they unanimously chose to send people to investigate the truth, trying to know what happened last night.

However, when these caring people acted, they discovered that what happened in the main hall of the city last night had been sealed.

All those who stayed in the main hall before dawn, no matter if they were knights, magicians, combatants, or technicians, all had their voices unified and were not allowed to say anything about it. .

In other words, messages are blocked.

Moreover, it is still blocked in the form of top secret.

If someone disregarded the gag order and told what happened in the city hall yesterday, it would basically be equivalent to leaking city secrets, and would be punished with a crime equivalent to treason.

Therefore, the people who were sent to investigate the news finally returned without success, but instead aroused the suspicion of all interested people.

"In the end what happened?"

This is the most important thing in the hearts of everyone who pays attention to the city main hall.

Unfortunately, they obviously couldn't solve this doubt and got the answer they wanted.

Today's Xinyel is spent in all kinds of turmoil, either on the surface or in the dark.

The entire Xinyel became undercurrents and gradually fell into chaos.

…………

Shinyele, Knight Division.

This is the branch of the Knights Department closest to the city main hall, located on the east side of Xinyel.

In the past, the main function of this place was to allow the knights sent by the City Lord Pavilion to stay. These resident knights were responsible for the security of the entire east of Xinyel, which was equivalent to a small branch of the City Lord Pavilion's armed forces.

But today, this place was requisitioned and became the temporary residence of the city lord.

"boom!"

In a luxurious room, a vase was violently broken.

The wounds on his body had obviously been treated, and Scranto, who was no longer seriously ill, stood in the center of the room with a grim expression on his face.

"Rig Brihaut...!"

Scranto held the amber blade and slashed down with his sword while roaring.

"boom!"

The sword light flashed past, smashed the floor, shattered a lot of furniture, and also smashed a wall at the end of the sword light, blasting it into pieces.

Naturally, it was impossible for such a violent movement not to be noticed.

But the people in this branch could only stand there trembling, not daring to hit the city lord's muzzle at all.

"hateful!"

"hateful!"

"hateful!"

"hateful!"

Scranto vented his anger, constantly destroying the things in the room, and even destroying the room itself, so that this exquisite room was quickly dismantled into ruins.

"Hu Chi... Hu Chi..."

I don't know how long it took before Scranto stopped his hands and gasped violently.

Of course, the anger in his chest has not yet calmed down, and his eyes are bloodshot, as dangerous as a ferocious beast that chooses someone to devour.

"Since I became a sword master and became the city lord of Xinyel, this is the first time I have suffered such a loss and been made so embarrassed by someone."

"Rig Brihaut..."

"You're fine! Fine!"

"If I don't avenge this revenge, I will never give up!"

The anger in Scranto's chest has completely turned into a flame of hatred, and the more it burns, the more violent it becomes.

Just when Scranto was still angry and couldn't help but want to swing the amber blade down again, a voice sounded behind him.

"I think it's better for you to calm down."

This is a very cold voice.

The voice was as cold as frost, it could no longer be described as indifferent or cruel, but almost emotionless.

Hearing this voice, Scranto stopped what he was doing, turned his head slowly, and looked behind him.

I saw that in the corner of the dilapidated room, at some point, a person appeared.

It was a young girl who was in the shadows and couldn't see the whole picture, but was exuding a chill.

The girl did not walk out of this shadow, leaning against the wall, holding her hands, and a weapon hanging around her waist. At first glance, she seemed to have a low sense of existence, but in fact she exuded a deadly temptation and attraction all the time.

Judging from the other party's voice and figure, her age may be the same as her appearance, she is in her prime, and she is definitely not very old.

But it was such a young girl who didn't even waver in the face of the ferocious gaze of a veteran sword master.

"What?" the girl said blankly, "Don't tell me you still want to do something to me?"

Scranto didn't answer this question, but looked at the girl coldly.

"What are you doing here?" Scranto's attitude was much worse than usual, and he said very gloomyly, "Did you come to see my joke?"

"I'm not that interested." The girl said lightly, "I just came to talk to you about what happened last time, but in the end..."

In the end, I found out about the City Lord's Pavilion, and after sneaking in here, I got a general idea of ​​what happened, and understood what happened to Scranto.

"Frankly speaking, I am very surprised." The girl said: "Li Ge Brihot, this man who broke my record and became the youngest sword master in Akasha continent can beat even you. I'm afraid you can't even think of "Tian Shou"? "

Hearing this, veins popped out of Scranto's forehead, and he clenched his fists tightly.

"...There will be no next time." Scranto growled, "This kind of thing... will never happen again!"

"Next time, I will definitely kill him."

"kill him!"

Scranto's growl only got the girl's pity.

"I heard that he defeated you when his magic power was blocked?" The girl said mercilessly, "If his magic power is not blocked and is fully activated, can you really kill him?" ?”

"I can!"

Scranto turned sharply to the girl and made a hysterical sound.

In response to this, the girl's eyes towards Scranto became not only pitiful, but also contemptuous.

"I can't even accept the reality. Is this the city lord of Xinyele?" The girl said bluntly, "I'm starting to wonder if it's the right decision to cooperate with someone like you."

"Are you here to provoke me?" Scranto exuded a fierce aura, staring at the girl firmly, and said, "Don't think that I really dare not do anything to you."

"Dare or not, I don't really care." The girl Yi Ran was not afraid, and even said very indifferently: "If you want to fight, I will accompany you at any time."

The girl held down the weapon at her waist.

Scranto glanced at the weapon apprehensively, then took a few deep breaths, forcing himself to calm down.

"I agree to the cooperation you proposed."

Scranto said those words.

"Finally agreed?" The girl frowned, and said with a sneer: "Didn't you always repel me to mention this matter to you before, did you encounter the so-called taboo in your mouth?"

"...That kind of thing doesn't matter now." Scranto clenched his fists and said in a low voice: "Now, I just want to kill that guy."

"In order to achieve this goal, I want to get the thing in the ruins."

Hearing this, the girl narrowed her eyes slightly.

But she didn't say anything, turned around and left.

"When you recover from your injury, we will set off."

Leaving such a sentence, the girl disappeared.

Scranto stared at the disappearing figure of the other party, his eyes were red.

"just wait……"

"We'll meet again soon..."

In the dilapidated room, voices like the moaning of a ghost kept ringing out, making the air cold.
