King Ember's Journey to Tevat

Chapter 490 The war resumes

On the sea at a corner of Nashi Beach, a wooden boat was slowly wandering along the coast. It seems to want to dock, but for some reason is reluctant.

The wooden boats cruised back and forth along the coast, looking a bit like anxious people pacing back and forth.

"Damn it, hasn't it been pretty good lately? Why are you fighting again?"

On the deck, Guilong looked at Nazhi Beach in the distance, where the fire was now soaring into the sky and the sound of killing was deafening.

Purple and red are intertwined, they are incompatible with each other. But it turned the shoals and the sea red together.

The battle between the shogunate army and the rebel army was witnessed by everyone, and conflicts between the two were commonplace.

But in recent days, the conflict between the two sides has intensified. Now, it's almost a full-scale attack.

At first, Guilong thought about converging the transportation lines in order to protect himself.

Things were fine with the rebels. Apart from the tighter inspections due to the war, there were no major changes.

But the shogunate army seemed to have a new commander, and even his request for a meeting was forcefully rejected.

"This is going to be a big change." After standing on the deck and looking around for a while, Guilong felt that he couldn't control the situation.

Originally, he was just a pirate who grew up between the shogunate army and the resistance army. Now that the gap between the two sides has disappeared, Ghost Dragon suddenly feels extremely troublesome.

But luckily he was alone and he was now on his lap!

Walking back into the cabin, Guilong took out a shriveled and thin old finger from his arms. As soon as he saw the severed finger in his hand, Guilong's expression twisted a bit.

Although he had killed people as a pirate, he had always done so quickly and thrown the bodies directly into the sea to feed the fish.

He had never done anything like dismembering a body, and he didn't know if this finger was really picked up by him as Huo Yan said.

If Guilong had witnessed the junction where the magic ring was broken, he probably wouldn't have such doubts.

Because the junction area after the magic ring was broken was full of corpses. Not to mention fingers, even Jingguan could be built by picking up corpses.

As for Rodland, I'm sorry, Rodland is so deserted that you can't even see many corpses.

"Embers..." Guilong's movements stopped while he pinched his rough severed fingers.

"How did he write it in the first place?" Guilong suddenly found that he had forgotten the runes that Yi Yan had written on the ground.

In fact, they are not runes, but the words of the border area. However, for Oni Takashi, who dropped out of elementary school, there is no difference between the words of another world and the ghost drawings.

Just when Gui Long was sweating profusely from anxiety, the severed finger in his palm suddenly burst out with an astonishing suction force.

This suction force drove his body, bit by bit, using the broken fingers in his hand to write words that Guilong had never seen before.

"Om-"

Orange-yellow light spots gathered in front of the words he had just written, and eventually gradually formed an orange-yellow shadow.

The shadow slowly stood up from the light emitted by the runes. The phantom took a step forward, and the orange light on it cracked, revealing the true figure of Ember.

"This...is this coming?" Looking at the embers in front of him, Guilong rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

He had received news before that two people "suspected" to be executive officers, Ember and Fools, went to Heguan.

Yes, Guilong still feels that the young master and the skirmishers are not like the executives in his impression.

A person with a simple mind and a mouth as tough as a duck can be an executive?

"Otherwise? You want me to fall from the sky, right?" Yi Yan raised his eyebrows and crossed his arms.

Originally, he wanted to just create a phantom to get rid of the problem, but then he thought about it. The old finger given to Gui Long's faded person was originally a back-up to prevent the stragglers from being disobedient.

Now that the stragglers have gone to Heguan, this faded old finger should be of no use. Who knew that Gui Long would actually put it to use.

Yu Yan thought he must have encountered some serious accident, so he ran over just to be on the safe side.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter so much. I'll tell you..."

"I heard everything." Yi Jin waved his hand, pushed open the cabin door and walked out. Thick smoke was billowing outside, and the fighting between the two sides was still in a stalemate. It seemed that the fighting was far from over.

"What happened? Are the two sides fighting again?" Seeing this, Yi Yan asked Gui Long.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have asked you to come over." Guilong shook his head, he was also confused now.

"The conflict started to intensify a few days ago. I thought they were just dealing with the situation because they had missions from above."

"Now it seems that there is a strong momentum for a decisive battle." Guilong looked at the tragic battlefield in the distance, unable to see clearly. But somehow, there was always a scream in his ears.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion or if he really has amazing hearing.

"A decisive battle? It really looks like there is a decisive battle." Yi Yan nodded. This battle was much more tragic than the previous petty fights.

It should be the most seen when Ember comes to Inazuma, no, that’s not right! It should be the most conflict I have seen since coming to this world.

Thinking of this, Yi Yan couldn't help but feel a little emotional. I don't want to know this, but I am shocked when I think about it. This world is so peaceful.

There are almost no wars between countries. Even the wars in front of us are at best civil wars.

"Although I don't like to meddle in other people's internal affairs..." Yu Jin said, and took out the notebook he had been writing in since he came to Inazuma.

"But it makes me sad to think that one of the two precious people can win."

After glancing at the series of deduction items on the small notebook, Yi Yan felt a sigh of relief in his heart.

He originally thought that at least one of the shogunate forces and the rebels would get a positive score, but in the end, let alone a positive score, he didn't even bother to write down the deduction items for both sides.

"I'll be right back!" After saying this to Gui Long, Yi Yan bent his legs and prepared to run to the battlefield.

"boom!"

"My ship!"

The small wooden boat seemed to be equipped with a huge cannon that its tonnage could not bear. When it fired the cannonball Ember, it was also shaken left and right by the huge recoil it brought.

Where the ember had stood, a large crater was made in the wooden deck. Beside the big pit, Gui Long was covering his face and crying.

……

The scene in front of him became blurry due to the rapid passing of the embers, but this did not affect his progress at all.

The battlefield was filled with flames, and amid the smoke and shouts of killing, everyone was red-eyed. They just waved the weapons in their hands and chopped all the living creatures in front of them into pieces.

Only the armor that is exactly the same as their own can awaken the remaining sanity of the soldiers. When facing their companions wearing the same clothes as themselves, their sword-swinging movements will be slightly stagnant.

Under this situation, if you want to restore the people who have lost their minds to normal, you need something more inspiring than the war itself, such as the victorious Charge...

Or something that can awaken fear in people's hearts in an instant, such as the sound of a defeated drum.

Of course, Embers had neither. So he needs to make a bigger noise, big enough that everyone has to pay attention to him.

"call--"

The roar caused by the squeezing of the air resounded through the sky, and a bright flash of light tore through the rising dark smoke and rushed straight to the center of the battlefield.

"Boom!"

The flash of light fell, and the deafening explosion instantly suppressed the killing cries on the battlefield.

Every soldier present woke up, but before they could react, the waves of air swept them all away.

"Ahem! There seem to be some familiar faces here..."

Ember waved his hand to blow away the smoke in front of his eyes. He raised his head and looked around, and saw some familiar figures.
