Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 2864: Empire Shock
This message was a bit strange. It was reported through the communication array of the City Lord's Mansion. After confirming the identity of the other party, the messenger was actually a warrior from the Benxiao Pavilion.
And after the message was sent out, it would be routinely confirmed that the communication array was operating normally in all aspects. However, after the message was sent out from the communication point in the imperial capital, there was no response from the Acropolis. If they had not confirmed their identities, they would even think that this was a farce, or a joke.
The few people in the Communication Hall only thought about this message for a moment and then decisively threw it aside. In their opinion, if this message was reported to the Sacrifice Hall or the Great Sacrifice Hall, being scolded might be a small matter, and they might even be punished.
Not long after, when the priests in the Communication Hall received another message from the Acropolis, they also fell into complete silence. The huge Communication Hall is not only responsible for the news of the various county cities in the Yelin Empire, but also includes some important main cities. There are more than 20 large communication arrays alone.
Each communication array must have at least one priest in charge of guarding it, and they must change shifts every six hours to ensure that there is always someone at the array to receive messages.
There are about forty priests in the communication hall now, but these people are stunned on the spot like wooden sculptures. Even if there are some communication arrays around them that light up, no one will pay attention.
Everyone's eyes are focused on one person, who is holding a message that has just been copied down. In addition to controlling the communication array, the priests are best at writing. Not only is the writing speed extremely fast, but the handwriting is also clear and beautiful.
The message on the paper in his hand was just copied down, and the first line was written neatly. But when he wrote the second line, the handwriting began to become erratic, as if he had no strength to hold the pen tightly in his hand. By the third line, the words had become crooked, and even if you look closely, some words are unreadable.
Until this moment, everyone present was still thinking about the passages that the priest who received the message before had read out in a trembling voice.
"The Acropolis, the night before yesterday, was attacked by a beast tide, many buildings were destroyed, more than a thousand people were killed in the city, and more than half of the city guards lost in order to stop the beast tide..."
When he read the content to this point, he had already attracted the attention of everyone present. Some people were still considering whether this message was credible, and whether it was a "prank" like the previous news from the Acropolis.
Then the priest who was responsible for receiving the message, in a trembling and hoarse voice, read out the content that he would never forget in his life.
"Strong enemies appeared in the city, and the Benxiao Pavilion went all out to encircle and suppress them. The leader of the Yu Pavilion, Wu Tian, died in battle, and more than 300 of his Yu Pavilion warriors died in battle.
A seventh-level monster was promoted to the eighth level and completed its transformation. The former leader of the Icefield Clan, Blizzard, was rescued. The high priest Zheng Lu was seriously injured in the fierce battle and has been in seclusion. The high priest Zhu Tao died in battle!"
Because each communication requires a lot of materials, the content of the communication is mostly very concise. And the message from the Acropolis in front of us can be said to be the longest message transmitted after the Ye Lin Empire's Communication Hall was used.
But no one would think that this message was a bit long-winded, and even every word in it lingered in everyone's mind like thunder.
What they didn't know was that if there was no upper limit on the number of words in the communication content, the Acropolis would introduce it in more detail, at least letting them know that the main urban area of the inner city of the Acropolis has been completely destroyed.
After everyone was silent for a few breaths, someone suddenly reacted and screamed, then shouted loudly: "Report, report, report... news!"
The priest holding the message raised his head blankly, as if talking to himself: "Report... to whom? Who should I report the news to?"
"The Great Priest Hall!"
One of them, who seemed to be the person in charge of the message hall, finally reacted at this time and shouted loudly. Then he grabbed the priest who was standing there stupidly holding the message and threw him out.
Soon after, all the high-level officials of the Ye Lin Empire received the message, which was a huge earthquake for the Ye Lin Empire.
The location of the Ye Lin imperial capital is very special. The entire imperial capital is located on a huge mountain. The three sides of the mountain are in the shape of steps, and the east, south and west directions are open. Only the northernmost side is a steep cliff. The bottom has the largest area, with an area of nearly 200 miles in radius. There is no city wall here, so until today, the scope of Ye Lin Imperial Capital is still expanding.
However, these are the residences of the people at the bottom of the imperial capital. There are three huge stairs in the east, south and west directions, and you can reach the second floor through the stairs.
The scope of the second floor is slightly smaller, but this is also compared to the bottom, because the second floor is almost 100 miles in radius. In this second-level area, families and forces with status and position are required to have residences and mansions.
Going further inward, there is only one staircase in the south, leading to the final third floor. This third floor is the organization that manages the entire empire. The Communication Hall, the Sacrifice Hall, the Soul Sacrifice Hall, and the Benxiao Pavilion are all in the outer area. Close to the interior are the Great Sacrifice Hall and the Great Soul Sacrifice Hall.
Behind the Great Sacrifice Hall and the Great Sacrifice Soul Hall, there is a steep cliff extending out. On this cliff, there is only one building, the name of this building is "Ye Palace", which is also where the Lord of Ye Lin is located.
The giant mountain where the imperial capital is located has a powerful formation arranged from the second floor, which has exceeded the general city defense formation. Because the formation here was built by Lord Ye Lin three generations ago, no strong man has been able to force his way to the third floor for so many years. The level of this formation has even reached the level of the sect formations of those major sects in the ancient wilderness.
Starting from the second floor, the more you go up, the more powerful the formation is, especially the trap formation. In the core area of the third floor, even the strong man in the Yu Nian period can only fly less than two feet from the ground. Under the power of this powerful formation, there is no strong man who can fly up from the cliff behind.
At this time, in the core "Ye Palace", it can be said that the strongest people of the Ye Lin Empire have gathered here, and the priest of the Communication Hall is kneeling outside the Ye Palace. It is very cold in late winter, but this person is kneeling in the cold wind, and his clothes on his back have been soaked with sweat.
When he was thrown out, he was still in a daze, and he didn't even come back to his senses until he came to the High Priest Hall in a panic. He shuddered and came back to his senses.
After waking up, he immediately felt bad. If the high priest was furious about the news he brought, a "cough" could cost him his life. But he had already arrived at the High Priest Hall, and it was too late to regret. Fortunately, the news was too important. Although the high priests were furious, they did not really vent their anger on him, a priest who sent a message.
Not to mention the big thing of Blizzard's escape, the killing of the high priest Zhu Tao alone was not something the high priest could decide independently.
The two high priests, Weng Ben and Yun Lida, hurriedly reported the matter. Because the high priest was not there, they were unwilling to report the matter to the High Sacrifice Soul Hall, so they reported the situation directly to the state lord Ye Shan.
In fact, such a big thing will inevitably alarm Ye Shan in the end, but the Sacrifice Hall and the Sacrifice Soul Hall are not in harmony with each other, so there is some overstepping in terms of procedures. But for Ye Shan, he is obviously unwilling to entangle these things now. What he is most concerned about now is how to deal with the Acropolis.
The main hall of the Ye Palace faces south. From the center of the hall where Ye Shan is sitting, he can even have a panoramic view of the entire imperial capital. But he is not in the mood to take a second look now, but his eyes slowly sweep over everyone in front of him.
A man in a black robe on the left hand side, this person is wrapped very tightly, and his whole body is completely wrapped in it. This person is the High Soul Sacrifice Ye Chang. On the right hand side of Ye Shan is an empty seat, which should have been the position of the high priest Kuang Zhan.
Next to the position of Kuang Zhan, there was not a high priest, but a middle-aged man wearing black armor, who looked about 60% similar to Ye Shan. His name was Ye Meng.
This person's status in the Ye Lin Empire was even higher than that of the Great Soul Priest and the Great Priest. First of all, this person was in charge of the Shao Yu Palace, which was almost equal to the Ben Xiao Pavilion, and was also a force directly managed and driven by Ye Shan. Another identity was the Great Elder of the Elders' Council, which had the ability to directly interfere with Ye Shan's decision-making.
Below Ye Meng were the two high priests, Weng Ben and Yun Lida. Opposite them, there were two soul priests sitting in the position of the Great Soul Priest. Their status was the same as that of the high priest.
In addition to these people, there were two young men standing behind Ye Shan. One of the young men was Ye Chan, whom Fujita had secretly met before leaving the Ye Lin Empire.
The other one was younger, looking only about 17 or 18 years old. His name was Ye Tao. Judging from his appearance, he is the person who is most similar to Ye Shan among those present.
It can be said that those who hold the highest power in the Ye Lin Empire have gathered here at this time. Since the last war against the Xuanwu Empire, that is, the attack on the Icefield Clan, the high-level officials of the Ye Lin Empire have gathered so fully.
"Everyone already knows why I summoned everyone here. What do you think... Tell me!"
Ye Shan's face is as gloomy as ten thousand years of ice. When he speaks, he has a unique momentum belonging to the superior. He is not the most powerful among all the people present, but he is the most respected among all the people present.
