"Benello is also involved in this plan?" Danny frowned.
"The supreme priest has no choice. The food in the city is definitely not enough for everyone to survive the long night. Saving the nobles and giving up the people and slaves is cruel, but it's the only feasible plan. "African Elder Xie defended the Red God Temple.
Galloway angrily berated, "The only choice for dogshit. What are we doing now?
Volantis' geographical environment is even better than Slaver's Bay. There are swamps outside the city, the Rohn River passes through the city, and the harbor faces the Summer Sea.
We can fish, why can't you?
I've been to Volantis many times. Even the gods are jealous of the abundant fish in the Rohn River. One copper coin can buy a basket of bighead fish at the fish market. "
African Elder Xie's mouth opened and closed a few times, but he did not say a word.
"You are helping the nobles deceive the people. Does the consul allow all the Red God priests to enter the Black Wall?" Danny asked suspiciously.
African Elder Xie's expression was pained as he said hoarsely, "Only the red-robed monks can enter the Black Wall."
Aunt May and Soros wore red robes when they appeared, but it did not mean that all the followers of Lahlo were qualified to wear red robes.
Just like the Church of the Seven Gods had barefoot monks, gray-robed monks, abbot of the church, bishop of the diocese, archbishop, and archbishop, the Red God priests were also divided into different levels.
The lowest level of wild monks wore linen robes, similar to Big Sparrow.
Followers who were born in the Red God Temple would wear a pale yellow robe after becoming the attendants of the red-robed monks.
When the level was raised, the color would darken and become orange.
Finally, only monks who were qualified to represent the Red God to preach the teachings could wear red robes.
For example, Aunt May was raised as a holy prostitute. For a long time, she was a yellow-robed attendant who served the red-robed monks.
Consul Dofas's promise to the Red God priests was basically a ninety percent verdict. The Red God priests were also abandoned.
"You are also a red-robed monk. Why didn't you go to the Black Wall to enjoy your life? Instead, you brought the Tiger Cloak Army to Slaver's Bay to die?" Danny asked curiously.
The White Black Lion King said bitterly, "The Tiger Cloak Army are all believers of the Red God, and I am the Red God Priest of Volantis, second only to the Supreme Priest.
The Tiger Cloak Army was not stupid. The moment the sun in the sky was extinguished, they were all ordered to leave Volantis. Without a certain amount of prestige, they won't be convinced. "
"So you are the second-in-command of the Red God Temple." Danny's face was filled with surprise.
The Supreme Priest, Benello, was a milky white man, while the second-in-command, Machiro, was a black man, as black as charcoal.
The combination of the Black and White Impermanence was truly strange.
"You tricked the Tiger Cloak Army into sending them to their deaths. You've failed to live up to their trust."
The black-skinned White Lion King got up and prostrated himself at the Dragon Queen's feet. "I hope they can survive. Of the Tiger Cloak Army's twenty-four ships, at least fifteen of them are still near the Wall of Storm twenty kilometers to the south.
Your Majesty, please be merciful, I beg you, save them. "
Danny nodded. "Go south along the Wall of Storm outside the ruins of Valleglia and search for the Tiger Cloak Army's ships."
"Your Majesty …" Blackbeard hesitated, but seeing the determination in the Queen's eyes, he could only sigh helplessly and turn to leave.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty is merciful!" Machiro was overjoyed.
Dani said with a playful smile, "Speaking of which, can your red-robed monks of Volantis still sense the will of R 'hllor?"
"What?" Old Xie Xun was confused by the sudden change in topic.
"Can you still use the Light King's divine arts and communicate with Lahlo's will in the fire?" Danny asked.
"I should be able to," Machiro said hesitantly.
"I should be able to?" Danny chuckled and asked, "Have you lost Lahlo's favor?"
"Your Majesty, not every red-robed monk can get a response from the Light King every time they materialize a flame," Old Xie Xun explained.
"Do you know that Lahlo's faith in the Western Continent of Ursus is completely gone?" Danny smiled slyly.
"Why do you say that?" Machiro was shocked and shouted, "We still believe in the great Light King. The night is long, and only the Light King can bring light to the world. The faith of the believers will only be more devout."
"Are you proficient in prophecies?" Dragon Queen asked another irrelevant question.
Machiro was stunned for a moment before nodding. "I'm better at prophecies."
"Then can you predict what I will do next?" Danny asked.
"Your Majesty, prophecy is a feeling, a sudden impulse. I'm exhausted now, and I don't know what's going to happen next." Old Sheldon of Africa said honestly.
"Then use your wisdom to think. Why did I save the Tiger Cloak Army who believe in the Red God?"
"You're merciful —"
"I'm merciful, but not weak." Danny gave Kuer a look. "Take Master Machiro to the cabin and give him meat soup, bread, and liquor. Have a good night's rest. We'll talk tomorrow. "
The last sentence was directed at Machiro.
.....
During the Cataclysm of Valleglia, the Land of Long Summer was like a crispy biscuit that was cut in half by a knife. A sea of smoke appeared in the middle, but the islands below were also shattered into countless pieces in the explosion.
Some of the continental fragments were submerged by the sea and became submerged reefs, while others emerged from the sea and became reefs. If the reefs were large enough, they would become small islands.
There was such an island at the entrance of the Sea of Grief. It was located 20 kilometers away from the Sea of Grief, about 500 meters in length and width, and about the same size as Winterfell. There was not a single blade of grass on the island, only uneven grayish-black rocks that resembled sarcomas.
In the past, no ship dared to approach the island. Firstly, as a remnant of a shattered continent, there were many submerged reefs nearby. Secondly, it was too close to the Sea of Smoke, and legend said that there were many sea monsters and demons in the Sea of Smoke.
The submerged reefs were real, the sea monsters were real, and the sea creatures that resembled demons were also real. The Dragon Queen named the island "Hell's Gate".
The Sea of Smoke was hell, and the island was located at the entrance of the Sea of Smoke.
As night fell, the Hell's Gate highlighted its huge fishing value.
After the sun went out, the creatures in the sea would lose sunlight and warmth, and would inevitably approach the river basins near the Sea of Smoke in large numbers. Because of the volcanoes in the Sea of Smoke, the seabed temperature was high.
This was also the reason why the fishing fleet had been loitering near the Wall of Storm. Schools of fish spontaneously swam toward the warm waters.
Danny's "Moth Darting to the Flame Plan" made use of the fish's instinct to yearn for sunlight and warmth to the extreme.
If a hole was opened in the frozen surface of the lake, it would not take long for countless fish heads to fill the hole.
Fish also needed oxygen. When a hole was opened in the ice, the oxygen content of the lake would increase. Sensing the change in oxygen content, schools of fish would come.
Danny hung a small sun near the surface of the sea. Just like opening a hole in the frozen surface of the lake, schools of fish that were sensitive to light and temperature would spontaneously swim over.
With the shapeshifters entering the bodies of their animal companions and constantly monitoring the movements of the schools of fish, the fishing fleet could calmly set up a formation and catch all the schools of fish that chased after sunlight.
It was cruel and efficient. The fish in the sea were like moths darting to the flame, disregarding their lives for the sake of light and warmth.
Alright, only artistic youths would think this way. The moths and fish were just following their instincts and did not have many thoughts. Don't say, "How can a person who is not a fish know the thoughts of a fish". When formulating the fishing plan, Dragon Queen had specially arranged for shapeshifters to enter the bodies of various types of fish for experiments.
I am not a fish, but I know the joy of fish.
This was the charm of a fantasy world.
.....
The rescue fleet of the Tiger Cloak Army didn't waste too much time. The three small suns that were squeezed together were like morning stars hanging in the blue dome of heaven, pointing out the way for all life within a fifty-kilometer radius.
Only fourteen ships and over five thousand Tiger Cloak Army soldiers were left.
Grolle arranged for the sailors to repair the holes in the cabins and provided healers to help treat the wounded.
The ships with broken masts didn't give up either. A mooring rope was hung at the bow of the ships and pulled forward by the giant fishing ships.
On the evening of the second day, over thirty ships arrived at Hell's Gate Island in a grandiose manner.
"Seven Gods above, what is that?!" The moment they approached the scorched island, the sailors on the ships cried out in shock.
"Ssss —"
"Ang ~ ~ ~ ~"
Under the small sun, everything within a ten-kilometer radius could be seen. West of the scorched island, streaks of red light flashed under the vast sea surface. The seawater was boiling, like a pot of bathwater that was left on the coal stove by a mother playing mahjong.
Amidst the surging waves, one could vaguely see two giant beasts fighting.
Based on the dragon flames and dragon roars, everyone could guess that the black shadow entangled by numerous red tentacles was the black dragon.
The tentacles were thicker than a muscular man's waist and were thirty to forty meters long. They were covered with suction cups the size of a pot lid, and each suction cup had dense sharp teeth that were as thick as a finger.
"Ah, it's a sea monster. The Megalosaurus is hunting the sea monster ~ ~" Grolle cried out in shock.
"Captain, the Megalosaurus seems to be at a disadvantage. Should we go over and help?" Suarez asked anxiously.
On the surface, Blackie was indeed in a miserable state.
The tentacles of the sea monster entangled his wings and tightened around his neck. There were also two tentacles whipping his head and back.
"There's no need to help. The sea monster is about to die. It's struggling in its death throes." Grolle shook his head and sighed.
"How can you tell?" Suarez asked in shock.
"Look at the surface of the sea. It's dyed dark red by black blood. That's not dragon blood. Listen to the sound. The Megalosaurus' roars are full of energy, just like an angry overlord roaring. The monster in the sea is like a peasant woman pinned to a pile of straw by soldiers. It's hoarse and full of pain, "Grolle analyzed.
The spearwoman Gisela also exclaimed, "Think about it. Where did the dragon flames of the Megalosaurus land? I think the sea monster's head is probably melted. "
She wasn't wrong.
As the red dragon flames kept spewing out from the bottom of the sea, the tentacles whipping the Megalosaurus became slower and weaker. In the end, it fell off the Megalosaurus like a puddle of soft mud.
"Hiss —" Blackie's head popped out of the sea. It roared at the sky and flew up.
Uh, it didn't fly up.
It grabbed the sea monster's tentacles with its claws and tried to lift it up. Not only did it not lift the sea monster's body, it also fell back into the sea with a splash.
It was awesome the whole time, but it failed to show off at the end. Bad review.
On the bridge, the Dragon Queen sighed with her hand on her forehead.
"Moo —" The giant turtle that had been treated as an island by the Tiger Cloak Army moved.
It mooed and quickly sank into the sea. It came under the sinking sea monster's body and slowly swam to the beach of Hell's Gate.
"Oh Lord of Light, where have we come to? What kind of monsters are these?"
When the mountain-like sea monster's body floated to the surface of the water, the Tiger Cloak Army from Volantis was scared stiff.
