honor me as god

chapter 546
Along the way, Solandelle has seen too many sad scenes, and the more she sees, the more powerless she feels in her heart. She mourns not only for the miserable experience of the slaves, but also for not knowing what she can do.

Before coming to Danyu City, she vowed to find a way to get the best of both worlds, and even asked Chino to give her 24 hours.

But when she really arrived in Danyu City, what was waiting for her was helplessness and bewilderment.

She was in the palace before, and the sources of information were oral or written reports from other people, saying how Danyu City was, how many people died during this period.

She thought she was ready to face the tragedy, but now that she thought about it, how could the tragedy in the world be described by a few documents and a few words?

If you don't come to the field in person, you will never know how heavy each word in the report is.

The report will simply put a number on it to tell you how many people died in total.

But only when you come to the scene and witness it with your own eyes, will you realize that it is not "how many people died in total", but how many times "one person died" happened in total.

Now think about it, what can she do in the face of such a huge tragedy?
Brother Andre was exhausted, Brother Bolton made a big mistake, and the king was also worried about Danyu City. She, a student who has only studied for a few years and has not yet graduated from the academy, wants to turn the tide here?

Impossible.
Thinking of this, Solandelle felt her nose sour and blamed herself for her incompetence.

Just as she was sitting on the side of the road wiping her tears secretly, she suddenly felt someone coming beside her.

Solandelle looked up, and saw a disheveled beggar standing in front of him, his eyes full of lewdness, like a hungry wolf seeing a little white rabbit.

Because of the famine, the law and order in Danyu City was already in chaos. Coupled with the fact that the nobles were evacuating the city one after another, a large number of people were needed to protect their safety. Various vicious incidents continue to occur.

A little girl like Solandelle is like a moving piece of fat walking alone on the street, and it's no wonder that she is not targeted by malicious people.

Solandelle realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly turned her head and left.

However, before she took a few steps, another beggar came out of the alleyway ahead, and formed a front and rear encirclement with the previous person, blocking her in the middle, with nowhere to escape.

Solandelle is in a panic now, not because she is worried that she will be violated. She is wearing the red string "string" presented by Kino. This kind of extraterrestrial armor can protect her well. Even the two superhumans couldn't hurt her.

What she is most afraid of now is that her identity will be exposed!
Solandelle knows very well that people with different identities see different things.

If he enters the city as a princess of the royal family, the officials of Danyu City will definitely send someone to watch him 24 hours a day, as he did to Kino, and follow him wherever he goes. , Cover up all the bad parts, and only let her see what they want to see.

If the two beggars attacked her now and the extraterrestrial armor took effect, everyone would know that her status was unusual, and when the news reached the ears of Danyu City officials, she might not be able to hide it.

Solandelle was blocked back and forth, paced anxiously in the middle, and said in a pleading tone: "You guys, don't do this. Can you let me go out?"

"Okay." The beggar had a lewd look on his face, exchanged glances with his companion, and finally laughed grinningly, "Let the two of you feel better!"

Solandelle shrank to the corner, unable to retreat, and could only watch the two beggars approaching.

However, before the beggar had time to pounce on Solandelle, he was suddenly hit on the back of the head with a sap.

"Boom."

The sap didn't hit hard, but it still made people's heads buzz.

I saw a short man holding a firewood stick and beating two beggars violently, cursing while beating: "Goddamn you bastards! Taking advantage of the fire, it's because of you bastards that this place is in such a mess! Get out!!! "

The two beggars were guilty of thieves, and they didn't dare to fight back when they were beaten. They covered their heads and ran away in embarrassment. After saying a few cruel words such as "you wait for me", they ran away.

Someone reached out to save the siege, and his identity was not revealed. Solandel immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly bowed to express his gratitude: "Thank you for your help!"

"Thank you for what?!" The visitor seemed to have a bad temper and didn't appreciate it at all. He pointed at Solandelle and yelled at him, "It's so chaotic outside now, you, a child, don't stay at home well, you have to run out Trouble others! Fortunately, I happened to pass by today, otherwise, if you were ruined by those two people, how sad would your parents be? Have you ever thought about it?!"

Solandelle had no temper after being scolded, so she could only apologize repeatedly.

The visitor didn't want to scold a child too harshly, so he snorted coldly and asked silently, "Where is your home? I'll take you back."

"No, no, my house is over there, I can go back by myself, thank you." Solandelle pretended to point to the front, and tiptoed away.

When passing by the visitor, Solandelle subconsciously gave him a sideways glance. Good fellow, with big nose and small eyes, thick lips, and pockmarked scars on his face, he was so ugly that he was a little scary.

But let alone, people should not be judged by their appearance. The person in front of him is ugly, but he has a heart that is brave enough to help others.

Solandelle withdrew her gaze and was about to leave when she suddenly thought of something. She stopped and looked closely at the person coming, her eyes opened wider and wider.

The visitor was stared inexplicably: "What are you looking at?"

Solandelle covered her lips unconsciously, and asked blankly: "Are you called Ma Ban? The food officer of Danyu City promoted by Master Lan Xian?"

"I'm Ma Ban, what's the matter?" Ma Ban was stunned at this point, looked up and down Solandelle, with a puzzled face, "You little girl, why do you know that I was promoted by Master Lan Xian?"

Solandelle had no intention of telling the truth, her eyes were wide open, and she quickly covered her mouth.

Seeing this, Ma Ban was even more puzzled, and asked: "Who are you? Your parents are nobles? I don't think your clothes look like that."

Although the identity should not be exposed, but the matter has come to this point, running around like before can only be a waste of time, now it is very necessary to find a breakthrough, and Ma Ban's previous rescue has left a great impression on Solandelle, she And no longer hide it.

Solandelle bowed to Maban and said politely: "Mr. Maban, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm the ninth princess of the royal family, Solandelle Van Dorgolande."

Ma Ban was stunned for a moment, but obviously, he couldn't connect the disheveled child in front of him with the noble princess of the royal family, so he snapped, "Nonsense! Impersonating the royal family is a felony, how dare you say such nonsense? ! Do you want to die?!"

Solandelle smiled slightly: "I have no way to prove my identity now, believe it or not, please let Mr. Maban judge for himself."

Ma Ban couldn't help being stunned by this indifferent expression, gentle and elegant conversation, and that natural temperament.

Moreover, Solandelle revealed his identity before - his promotion was promoted by Lan Xian, which belongs to internal information, and it is impossible for ordinary civilians to know.

All kinds of abnormalities dissipated the doubts in Ma Ban's heart layer by layer, and he couldn't help muttering in a daze: "Are you really Your Highness the Princess?"

Solandelle nodded.

Ma Madara looked at her absent-mindedly, the linen clothes were covered with dirt, the arms and face were covered with the mud splashed by the wagon wheels when they rolled over the stagnant water, and the long platinum hair wet by the rain was stained together one by one, How down and out you want to be, how can you have the image of a royal princess
Ma Ban asked dully: "Why did you make yourself like this?"

Solandelle touched the back of her head and smiled sheepishly: "I didn't come to Danyu City to play, but to solve problems. If you want to solve problems, you need to know where the problems are."

"Only by making myself like this can I hide my eyes and ears and blend into Danyu City quietly. Only in this way can I know what hardships everyone is suffering and what crimes they have suffered, and finally find a way to help you."

Every word, every word of Solandelle's, made Ma Ban deafened.

The pampered princess of the royal family, in order to solve the difficulties of the people, did not hesitate to stain her body with filthy pockmarks, covered her eyes with water mist, her lips trembled, she knelt on the ground unconsciously, and said in a trembling voice: "With a princess like you, Danyu City It's saved."

Solandelle helped Ma Ban up, and said with some disappointment: "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. The commander-in-chief of this operation is not me, but my good friend, Twilight City Consul Chino Van Helsing, he promised me 24 hours to act freely, but only 24 hours"

"In 24 hours, Chino's death squad will take full military control over Danyu City, set fire to the fields in Danyu Plain, plant blood essence grass, and kill those who stop it without mercy."

After hearing this, Ma Ban trembled, and said anxiously: "What is enough time for 24 hours?! Now more than 600 million people in Danyu City are waiting for the wheat in the field to save their lives. He can't do this! Your Royal Highness, you must Persuade him!"

Solandelle shook her head silently, her voice was sad, but she was very firm: "I don't want to see that happen more than anyone else. But everyone has their own difficulties. Consul Kino came here this time by order of the king. Back off, I will never rely on my personal relationship to hinder his official business."

Seeing that Ma Ban was in a hurry, Solandelle added: "Of course, the 24-hour deadline has not yet come, and there is still hope. You are the food officer of Danyu City, and I need to know the ins and outs of the fire in the granary on the night of the Dragon Fire Festival. Tell me."

Ma Ban lowered her head, and said in a weak voice, "I don't know."

"I don't know?" Solandelle raised her brows, and her tone became severe, "You are a grain officer, and you should be on duty at the granary on the night of the Dragon Fire Festival. Where did the fire start, where did it start, and where did it get involved? How did you save it? You don’t know about this?!”

Ma Ban said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, you may not be aware that I was suspended by the Consul Gome before the Dragon Fire Festival."

Solandelle was puzzled: "The reason?"

Ma Ban's tone was very unwilling: "He said he found a better candidate than me."

"And then?" Solandelle was stunned for a moment, "No more?"

"No more." Ma Ban shook his head.

Solandelle was furious: "Isn't this nonsense?! You are an official promoted by Lord Lanxian, and you haven't made any mistakes. Just for this reason, he dares to take your post?!"

The muscles on Maban's face twitched, and he smiled a little darkly: "Ge Mai is the governor of Danyu City, and he secretly hooked up with the supervisor Lin Gengsen. The two of them covered the sky with their hands. What else are they afraid to do?"

Solandelle kept shaking her head angrily: "Who is the new grain officer? Can you take me to him quietly?"

Ma Banzhuan clenched his fists and said: "The new grain officer is called Kai Rui, and he was killed the next day after the granary caught fire."

Solandelle closed her eyes unwillingly, the dead cannot speak, and the clue was broken again.

After a long silence, she opened her eyes again: "What information do you want to feed me back? Any information is fine."

As soon as these words came out, the burning fire came to Ma Ban's mind again, and he muttered: "Fire!"

Solandelle: "Fire?"

"I've lived for most of my life, and I've never seen that kind of fire." Ma Ban's eyes were erratic, and his voice trembled unconsciously, "After the fire broke out in the granary, the fire was unimaginably large. I knew that conventional means could not be put out, so I set off for the reservoir The flood discharge flooded Beicheng and the granary with the Qingjiang River’s flood.”

Solandelle was dumbfounded when she heard that Ma Ban opened the gate to release the flood in order to fight the fire.

What surprised her even more was the words behind Ma Ban: "But... the fire in the granary can't be extinguished no matter what, even the flood of the Qingjiang River can't extinguish the fire at all. "

"It's impossible!" Solandelle exclaimed, "The flood flooded the granary, and the fire still can't be extinguished? How can there be such a reason?!"

Ma Madara said heavily: "Every word I said is true! Those fires can't be extinguished at all! They are like flames cursed by the gods, completely ignoring firebreaks, and can burn through even stone walls, let alone take water Splash it on, and they can even burn right under the water!"

In an instant, Solandelle only felt that she had been hit by a heavy hammer, and her whole heart sank.

Water puts out fire, this is a law of nature, irrefutable - but it has a premise, that is "nature".

Combustion in the natural environment must be extinguished by water.

But there are exceptions, and that is the product of alchemy.

"Alchemy" is a mysterious technology dominated by humans, and many phenomena in it are unconventional and unnatural.

This kind of fire flame that cannot be extinguished by water, and can even burn underwater, Solandelle thought about the knowledge she had learned, and finally matched four words, and she said it unconsciously: "The desert flows fire."

"Desert fire?" Ma Ban is an expert in the field of agriculture. He doesn't know much about the military field, and he has never heard of this ultimate killer from the desert.

Solandelle hurriedly asked: "Did the granary burst into flames suddenly on the night of the Dragon Fire Festival? A little spark fell, and the flames immediately ignited? And those flames, which cannot be extinguished by water, can be burned underwater. Some fires still floating on the water, snaking like snakes, igniting anything at once?"

Ma Ban remembered for a moment, and found that what Solandelle said was exactly the same, so she nodded in response.

Solandelle's pupils are completely dilated
If so, the granary is no ordinary fire.
On the night of the Dragon Fire Festival, the granary was probably filled with desert flames, and that's why the raging and strange fire happened.

However, Danyu City is an inland city, and the forces of horse bandits cannot touch it, so it is unlikely that it was invaded by foreign enemies.

And Desert Liuhuo is a military control product, and ordinary people can't get it at all.

Could it be that the officials of Danyu City set the fire on their own? !

But they used desert fire to burn millions of tons of relief food, what good did they do for themselves?It is completely beneficial and harmless!
Or, the benefits do exist, but you just haven't discovered them?
