Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

After unloading some cargo, the "Hippo" set sail again.

After it became completely dark, Wayne stopped allowing Schier to continue adding coal, and by about nine o'clock in the evening, the steamship was basically gliding forward.

Uncle Wayne and his nephew were obviously very complimentary towards Hobert, maybe because they knew he was a nobleman, maybe because the bishop took the initiative to invite Hobert to talk, maybe both.

Although there is no church of Mother Earth in the mountainous area, people here seem to have become more devout in their belief in Mother Earth.

The people on the dock preparing to collect taxes were actually not county government tax collectors, but local gangsters.

They clearly knew that Hobert was a passenger, but they did not charge extra fees. According to Wayne, if it was normal, each passenger would have to collect a "tax" of 5 silver cables.

In Hobert's view, this is actually a money grab.

Now if Hobert asks about the situation in Jeffrey Town, Wayne will answer honestly.

First of all, Hobert knows that although it is the middle of winter, the vegetation on both sides of the Full Moon Lake is still full of vitality. Flowers bloom there all year round, and they bear fruit all year round. The growth of crops is much faster than in other places, and the crops also grow in winter. .

In addition, there are really monsters with fish heads and limbs in the Full Moon Lake. No one dares to live on the shore of the lake now. People have to guard the shore every day. As soon as the monster appears, the alarm bell will be sounded. The knight will lead As the villagers fought against monsters, much of the fertile farmland on both sides of Full Moon Lake was abandoned.

People were often injured or bitten to death in fights. Sil's father died after being scratched by a monster.

In the past six years, the residents of Jeffrey Town have really lived a life like hell. After they were exploited by the two knights in the territory, they were exploited again by the "lord" on the mountain.

The entire South Colson knew that there were many harvests around Full Moon Lake, but not much actually fell into the hands of the people, and many people even lived a life of hunger and cold.

The so-called "lords" are the gangsters who killed Viscount Wright 6 years ago. They have never been punished and have become the rulers of this area.

The so-called "the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked" means that the rulers of this area obtained the right to rule through immoral and illegal means, and the people under their rule gradually became immoral.

At the end of the conversation, Siel's eyes flashed with brilliance: "Dear Sir, are you the favored one of the Mother Earth? Are you here to end the dark age here?"

Hobert was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Although I have not been directly guided by the Mother Goddess, my coming here may really be the arrangement of the Mother Goddess, just like the stories of the saints told in the "Life Bible" Same."

He strives to "do as the Romans do". Even if some decisions are made on his own initiative, it can be said to be God's arrangement.

Hobert smiled in his heart: Haha, this puts a lot of responsibility on God. Sure enough, passing responsibility can make people happy.

After finishing this conversation, Hobert returned to the so-called cabin, lying on the bed looking at the dark ceiling and thinking about the evening conversation with Bishop Simpson.

He first thought of the "Law Master" who was contaminated and caused certain losses to the royal family.

Hobert remembered that Kristen had mentioned this information when he was in Backlund, but Kristen had only heard about this level of intelligence, but did not know that the royal family had sent angels to try to solve this problem.

Then the sentence "It's not difficult to solve, but it can't be solved." appeared in Hobert's mind again.

After thinking about it for a while, I still had no clue.

When Hobert went to the deck to solve the problem of abdominal bloating, he glanced at the crimson moon above his head, and suddenly thought of another description of Simpson: "...according to the locals, the red moon seemed to be particularly bright that day."

Hobert suddenly felt something, and he understood what the problem was.

Sure enough, when he returned to the cabin, locked the door and entered the "Land of Disorder", the knowledge he "left" here immediately made him understand what was going on:

The meteorite that fell into the Full Moon Lake was most likely an alien god, and it was quite possible that it was an invasion of the earth by the "Fallen Mother Goddess".

For unknown reasons, there seemed to be certain loopholes in the "shield" over South Colson that day, which was why the Crimson Moon looked particularly bright red.

The "Fallen Mother Goddess" took advantage of this opportunity and used a meteorite to project some power to the ground.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't be difficult to seal these powers, but because this is an alien god or pollution from the past, with extremely high status, both angels failed.

Perhaps only the true gods can seal it, but now that the seven true gods are in the star realm, the Mother Goddess of Earth has no time to care about it.

Even if the Earth Mother Goddess has time, she may stay far away. After all, Lilith has already suffered a loss from the "Fallen Mother Goddess" once, and she will definitely not give the "Fallen Mother Goddess" another chance to pollute herself.

The reason why Hobert can so firmly believe that it is the pollution of the "Fallen Mother Goddess" is not only Bishop Simpson's description of the Crimson Moon, but also because the Beyonders on the "cultivator" path in South Colson are more susceptible to pollution.

Even if ordinary missionaries of the Earth Mother Goddess Church stay here for a long time, they will probably gradually change their belief in the "Earth Mother Goddess" to the "Fallen Mother Goddess".

After thinking about this problem, Hobert suddenly realized that he might have a solution to the problem in Full Moon Lake!

The two angels said back then that the problem was not difficult to solve, but what they lacked was personality.

And what Hobert lacks most is character!

Even if it is contaminated, it can be easily solved by simply entering the "Land of Disorder" and listening to the bell of the "Block of Order".

However, before solving this problem, we still need to be cautious, observe it for a period of time, and find a safer way before taking action.

Returning to the real world, Hobert fell asleep to the sound of water and the gentle rocking of the cabin.

The rest of the journey was uneventful. The "Hippo" docked three more times and paid taxes three times.

The cargo on the deck and on the raft gradually dwindled, and we finally started heading to the last stop, Jeffrey Town, which was also called Wright Town in the words of Wayne's uncle and nephew.

Hobert paid for the boat ticket, but Wayne refused.

Hobert took back the two silver cords and pushed the remaining three silver cords to Wayne: "Introduce me to a butler."

Only then did Wayne accept the three silver cords. He thought for a while and then said: "Both York and Phillip are more suitable.

"York is a well-known clever guy in the town, and Philip once worked in the residence of Viscount Wright."

Hobert nodded: "Notify York to come find me later."

Wayne nodded repeatedly: "As soon as the ship docks, I will ask Sil to inform him. Sir, look, Full Moon Lake has arrived."

The scene ahead suddenly became clearer, and a relatively regular round lake appeared in front of Hobert.

As Wayne said before, even though it is winter, there is still an eye-catching green on both sides of the lake.
