"I understand." Shikanoin Heizo wanted to say something to Yujin, but the latter had already called the Fatui behind him.
In desperation, he turned around and headed in the direction where Dark Moon flew.
"Hurry up! Hurry up! If you can't do this, you will suffer the consequences in the future!"
Ember waved to the fools who were lagging behind, gesturing for them to follow the main force.
Soon, he was at the bottom.
He looked up at the sky, and an Eye of God appeared in Ember's hand.
"When an egg is opened from the outside, it's food. When it's opened from the inside, it's life. What do you want to do? Let it turn into a hairy egg?"
Shaking his head, he casually crushed the Eye of God into powder, and the embers quickly caught up with the large army.
Anyway, if the sky falls, there will be someone tall to hold it up. If the tall person is crushed to death, no matter what happens, he can still hold it up!
……
On an official road on Haiji Island, two rebels wearing red armor were standing guard with a look of despair.
Since the outbreak of the war, the number of pirates and other figures has increased exponentially, and now even the official roads with the most pedestrians are beginning to be robbed.
Therefore, the Coral Palace had to allocate manpower to patrol the official roads to prevent this kind of thing from happening again.
"Hey... Nakagawa, when do you think we can go to the front line?" Hirata Hiroaki yawned and asked his partner beside him.
"Go to the front line? Are you out of your mind? Don't you know that Uncle Todoroki's eldest son died because he had no medicine?" Nakagawa Jun heard his companion's complaints and immediately shook his head.
Although the pay for patrolling the rear is relatively small, the advantage is safety. Haiji Island is short of supplies, and many people die from wound infections.
Just looking at it like that will keep you awake all night.
Noticing that his companion had not responded for a long time, Nakagawa Jun turned around and joked: "Hey, why don't you respond? You said your brain is broken..."
Nakagawa Jun's voice stopped immediately, and the frosty white moonlight poured on the earth, making the already white ground even paler.
I saw a full moon suddenly rising above the sea in the distance. The full moon was both bright and deep.
What is bright is the moonlight emitted from it, and what is deep is the lunar soil on its surface.
"Flash!"
Nakagawa Jun was the first to react. He pulled his companion back and pushed him down hard.
"Crack!"
The soft moonlight suddenly shone, and the sound of breaking glass came from the direction of the coast, and then the earth trembled uncontrollably - the dark moon hit the ground.
The surrounding temperature dropped rapidly, and Nakagawa Jun could even feel the patches of ice condensing on his back.
"Fa...what happened?" Hirata Hiroaki asked with a trembling voice as he shuddered.
"The moon has landed." Nakagawa Jun got up from the ground.
When I looked into the distance again, my vision suddenly became clearer. All the originally rugged vegetation fell down, and without exception, they were covered with thick frost.
And the source of it all has long since disappeared, leaving behind a layer of frost and a large crater on the coast.
In fact, it cannot be said that it has disappeared. After all, it still leaves a large group of people behind.
"What a good luck to meet two guides." Ember jumped out of the pit and waved to the stunned two people.
Chapter 442 Negotiation
2024-01-24
Coral Palace is not only the largest shrine on Kaiji Island, but also the place where political affairs of Kaiji Island are handled.
As the spiritual and real leader of Kaiji Island, the shrine maiden usually lives in the Coral Palace.
Nowadays, this palace under a ring of giant coral shells is busier than before.
"What? You said you won't do it?!"
In the solemn palace, someone exclaimed.
"Bang!"
Ember slapped the conference table and stared at the trio of Fools across from them with burning eyes.
Under the leadership of the two sergeants from before, Yu Yan and others naturally received an interview from Haizhi Island - nonsense, if they didn't receive the interview, the people brought by Yu Jin could have entered directly.
After some explanation, the Coral Palace immediately started the negotiation process.
On the long conference table, on one side were Ember and Shikanoin Heizo, and on the other side were the lady, the young master, and the skirmisher.
The main seat facing the gate is naturally the living goddess of Kaiji Island, Coral Palace Shinkai, and a group of civil and military officials behind her who can speak.
Among them was the beast-eared general that Yu Yan had seen before, and judging from his position, he was most likely the right-hand man of Coral Palace Xinhai.
It's a pity that the meeting reached a deadlock as soon as it started. The reason was of course the lady's shirk.
Yu Jin just talked with Coral Palace Xinhai and others about the Foolish People transporting food. The lady jumped out and said something like, "They fools have specific tasks in Daozhu. If they don't complete them well, they won't be able to go back and explain to Zhidong."
To Ember, these words are almost equivalent to saying: "I'm sorry, I can't do it."
So he immediately slammed the table and glared at the three people across from him.
"Don't look at me, she said it, it's none of my business." When the young master felt Yu Yan's gaze, he immediately took a few steps back and distanced himself from the lady.
The young master's appearance had nothing to do with him, and his high-spirited attitude actually made the stragglers take a second look at him.
Why haven't you noticed this guy is so cowardly before?
Yi Jin didn't pay attention to the young master's actions. He picked his ears and said casually: "The mission of you fools is not to do those bad things, right?"
"If that's the case, you guys have to think about how to explain it to me first!"
"Kakakaka!" Yi Yan's palm exerted force, and cracks began to appear on the conference table.
"Uh..." The lady felt the unknown pressure coming from the ember and swallowed.
What Ember said was true. The mission given by Zhi Dong was to ask the Fools to prolong the rice wife's war. It would not be unfair to them to say that it was a bad thing.
"Xiaolu, how many copies have you made?" He saw the lady's hesitation. Ember nodded to Shikanoin Heizo on the side, and it seemed that he had to add more fuel to the fire!
"boom!"
"Several copies, enough for each of the three main shrines, the Coral Palace and the castle tower!"
The conference table trembled a little, and among the piled-up paperwork, Kanoin Heizo stuck his head out.
"Wow!"
Ember flipped through the documents on the table and asked Shikanoin Heizo pointedly: "Xiaolu, what do you think would happen if these things appeared in the hands of the Sanho Kamon Shrine, the Coral Palace, and the castle tower? ?”
"The Coral Palace is right here." Goro looked at the gloomy faces of the three executive officers across from him, and suddenly became curious about the contents of the document.
What exactly is it that makes executives tick?
"Don't interrupt!" Yi Jin glanced at Wulang, why couldn't this guy see the situation clearly? Now is the time to torture the fools.
Coral Palace? When the fools are gone, it will be the Coral Palace!
"Jie, Jie, Jie, I think there may be heads rolling around. As for whether the heads of the three followers or other forces are rolling, I don't know." Luyein Heizo let out a sinister laugh that only a villain can make.
He was actually trying to scare the ladies across from him, because according to Inazuma's current laws, there is no such thing as the death penalty.
But isn’t this just intimidation? There’s no harm in scaring people a little more.
"Damn it!" The lady's fingertips were about to dig into her palm. Although the Fatui didn't do anything good, they were very efficient and had almost no evidence left.
Even if others suspected that it was Foolish People who did it, they couldn't provide any evidence.
But Ember and Shikanoin Heizo are different. Ember is powerful, and Kanoin Heizo is a professional detective.
Together, these two people have great fists and great principles. They can beat fools to death and build a grave to prevent them from escaping.
Seeing this scene, the lady could only break her teeth and swallow it in her stomach. She didn't want Dao's wife's fools to be killed and arrested.
Inazuma is adjacent to the Ankai Sea, and there are many places of interest to fools within its territory. Even without the heart of God, these places may still bring some unexpected gains to the fools.
What's more, judging from Yu Yan's intention, if they don't obey, I'm afraid Daozhu's fools will be executed on the spot right now.
This risk cannot be taken for the time being!
The lady clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, and sat back.
"Haha, it seems that everyone has the same opinion?" Xinhai, who had been watching, broke the awkward atmosphere with a smile.
She touched the crack that extended to her front, wondering if she was lagging behind the times.
Are all the negotiations outside now talking like this?
"It was originally unified. It just deepened the original intention." Ember waved his hand and said nonchalantly.
"Then I would like to thank Mr. Ember in advance...and Mr. Heizo of Luyein."
Hearing this, Xinhai said gratefully to Ember and Shikanoin Heizo.
Of course she knew that fools did these things unwillingly. All of this is probably thanks to the "great adventurer" in front of me who is covered in iron armor.
As for Luyein Heizang, he checked his mind and found that it was just the concentricity pursued by Tian Ling, which had an effect, but it was probably not big.
"Hey! Why do you two look at me like this?!" Just when Xinhai was about to discuss specific matters, the young master's voice of surprise came again.
"Huh huh huh~"
Seeing everyone's eyes turning here, the lady immediately hummed an unknown song.
Anyway, her role is over as planned, and now it’s up to her two colleagues.
She just looked at the young master, just because she was afraid that the young master would forget the plan they made on the road.
Anyway, according to the current situation, they will definitely not be able to escape if they forcefully escape. Fortunately, judging from past experiences, Yan Yan is a reasonable person.
Since the hard one is not enough, let’s go for the soft one! Three people can't reason with one person?
The lady's mission is to use the special nature of the Fools organization to make Ember give up his previous idea of "the Fools rebuilding the brigade after the war."
Clearly, she failed. So now it's the turn of the two teammates, Young Master and Xingbing.
Specific to the young master, that is definitely the one thing he is best at - settling accounts!
As the chief debt collector of Beiguo Bank, the young master who travels all year round to collect debts must be very good at settling accounts!
