Chapter 311 Gossip
As if he felt something unexpected, the silver-haired man frowned slightly with his beautiful eyebrows.
"The seal is loose, is He going to recover so soon?"
His voice was gentle and mellow, with a hint of vague vigilance and solemnity.
Then, he turned around and looked at the far southwest, thinking about something.
"What should be come or not..."
He sighed slightly, as if he had made some decision.
After a while, he turned around gently, changed direction, and disappeared into the crowd.
The people around him seemed to have no response to his disappearance, as if this person had never existed...
...
Maple Leaf City.
It has been a week since the day of God's wrath.
That's right, the day of God's wrath.
Until now, people still remember the golden light column that fell from the sky that day, the Eternal Church that disappeared instantly, and the various visions that followed the sky.
That kind of powerful power is completely beyond the understanding of ordinary people, and I am afraid that only the true gods can possess it.
Some devout believers believe that it must be the power of the Eternal Lord, that it must be the people of Maple Leaf City that did something, angered the great true God, so they brought down the divine punishment...
Of course, there are also many shallow believers and those who believe in other true gods who are still skeptical.
In the past six months, strange phenomena have appeared frequently in various parts of the empire.
On weekdays, all kinds of events may become sparse and common.
The activities of the Desperate Church in Maple Leaf City for several years have not been useless.
The doomsday theory they promoted for missionary purposes also left a deep shadow in people's hearts with the emergence of various visions...
Of course, the most subtle thing is the reaction of Baifeng Castle, the Maple Leaf Lord's Mansion, after that terrifying night.
As the master of the border territory, the border king did not come forward after the incident. He simply sent guards to maintain the chaotic order in Maple Leaf City and isolated the ruins of the temple.
Furthermore, there is no explanation.
It was not until all kinds of rumors spread wildly in Maple Leaf City that Baifeng Castle issued a notice in an understatement, explaining the incident that night a few days ago.
The general idea is that this is a secret organization lurking in Maple Leaf City that destroyed the church and attracted a battle between powerful existences.
This secret organization is called the Church of Despair, and is suspected to be an evil organization that believes in some evil god.
At present, the great border Beauto von Cappadocia has secretly tracked the cult's den, completely destroyed it, and stolen the arrested members.
Shortly after the announcement was issued, the Baifeng Guard, who belonged to the Border Bo, tied dozens of hooded figures to the square in the city center and burned them all to death in front of the residents of Maple Leaf City.
In response to this, Maple Leaf City was in an uproar.
Some people applauded, some questioned, some were shocked, and some were relieved.
However, no matter how citizens reacted, this matter was finally suppressed.
Although the official did not specify what the powerful existence was, the statement of God's wrath gradually spread among the residents.
Time can always forget everything.
After a few days, the residents gradually left behind what had happened before.
Only people occasionally mention it in the tavern as a topic of conversation after drinking.
When the sky falls, there are tall people holding on to it. Ordinary people are more concerned about their little days.
Commercial area, the residence of Golden Apple Store.
At this moment, some short figures were gathering in front of the tall building.
They moved the ladder, took off the logo belonging to the Golden Apple Store, and replaced it with another brand new brand.
From time to time, pedestrians passed by here, stopped curiously, and read the small common words on the sign:
"Anways Store?"
For a moment, many people whispered:
"Amway Trading Company? Is this a new store? Where is the former Golden Apple Trading Company?"
"Don't you know? Golden Apple Store went bankrupt more than a week ago! I heard that it was a fraud gang from the south..."
"Hiss... he was able to cheat the Golden Apple Chamber of Commerce into bankruptcy! If you remember correctly... the Baron Baird is standing behind their Chamber, right?"
"Ha... Baron Baird? Have you not heard of it? It was because of bankruptcy that the Baron had already committed suicide in his study..."
"Hmm... how much money was cheated... Then what happened to this Amway Chamber of Commerce? I have never heard of it before... Well, it's wrong... Amway... seems to feel familiar again... I remembered it! Isn't this the chamber of commerce that bought and sold goods in a tavern recently?"
"Tsk, you just remembered it! I heard that this chamber of commerce belongs to the dwarfs. Some of their things are really good, and... they also allow civilians from the empire to invest and make money together. I heard that some people made a lot of gold pounds in just a few days!"
"Really? There is something so good?"
"Can there be fakes? Didn't you see that there are so many people queuing up at the door? They don't go shopping, they all have to invest in shares. They only need 5 gold pounds, or items of the same value, and can join their chamber of commerce... Then, as long as you work hard, you can become a hundred-pound rich man within a year!"
"Hiss...5 gold pounds! Hell, that's the income of my whole family in a year! And investing 5 pounds to make a hundred pounds? They are not cheating, are they?"
"Hey, you don't understand. If you want to know what's going on, just go over and take a look. After reading it, you will draw a conclusion."
"Let's talk about it. It's so chaotic recently... It's a fraud gang again, and it's a divine punishment. And I also heard that there seems to be a black dragon on the border recently, entrenched in the dark mountains."
"Hey... I heard that it's a black dragon! I heard that it seems that people were caught and eaten, and the villages on the border are still harming the village. It's so terrible..."
"I don't know if the Lord will organize a team to solve the problem. A black dragon... I feel terrifying when I think about it."
The speaker shook his head and sighed.
Similar talks came one after another among the onlookers.
Behind them, a red-haired man dressed in an imperial nobleman stood there, smiling at the long queue in front of the chamber of commerce, his face full of swearing.
The companion beside him hesitated for a moment, turned his body sideways, and asked in his ear:
"Boss Demacia... we do this... we won't be chased by the entire Maple Leaf City in the end, right? Shouldn't we be more low-key?"
The red-haired man chuckled and shook his head indifferently:
"What a panic? Do you think my Black Rock City is going bad?"
After saying that, he turned around and looked at his companion and asked:
"By the way, how are the follow-up of the hidden missions going on?"
His companion nodded:
"Every tavern has been rumored, anyway...the people in the entire Maple Leaf City should know that a powerful black dragon appeared near the border!"
