Chapter 1054 The Statue of Liberty is not free yet, Xiao Hei and Hathaway enter the game
In the center of the Storm Islands, the City of Silver, which has sheltered magicians for tens of thousands of years, still stands majestically, but those gleaming magic towers have faded away.The erosion of the sea breeze and the smearing of the residents have further defaced the already incomplete Tallinn, almost turning it into ruins.

After the barrier of the second plane disappeared, the magic industry that relied on the magic barrier collapsed, and the rule over the people at the bottom also came to an abrupt end. The magicians migrated to the mainland, taking away various facilities such as magic wells, portals, and They have accumulated wealth for tens of thousands of years, leaving only empty towers in the City of Silver, and many towers collapsed because of the failure of magic power projects in those years.

A hideous crack runs through the City of Silver, revealing an underground structure that seems to lead to the abyss. That deep underground city is the City of Shadows.Thanks to the members of the Night Society and the Dawn Society back then, they allowed the Shadow City to see the light of day, and also made the remaining residents here lose the distinction between the above-ground people and the underground people.

Not all of them migrated to the mainland, including some magicians who stayed here.However, the barrier was lost, and most of the population was lost, and the passage connecting the outer resource plane was also taken away. The people who stayed here only had a barren environment and an empty city.

The only one that is well preserved is the spire where the Supreme Council is located. After all, it has been the power center of magicians for tens of thousands of years.Before the Federation of Mages is under the control of the empire, the Supreme Council will also return here for meetings, symbolizing that magic power is still independent of the secular world, although that is just psychological comfort and face covering.

After the Mage Union became a vassal of the empire, in order to save the last trace of face of the magicians, the major families and the emerging "magic lord" jointly funded and sealed this place in an enchantment.

Now that the barrier has been uncovered, this shining lighthouse that stands at the highest point of the City of Silver and has illuminated magicians for tens of thousands of years has ushered in its new owner.

"Lucky are those who stay here, they will be bathed in the light of freedom."

"People no longer rely on fishing for a living, and they don't have to look forward to those sea ships from afar every day. They earn that little copper by dismantling ruins and serving adventurers."

"I will lead everyone to make the Storm Islands prosperous again!"

In the square in front of the Supreme Council Tallinn, Hathaway Ted, dressed in a purple robe of stars, with flowing black hair, deep silver pupils, and snow-like skin, stood in front of the Avenue of the Sages.She once led the rebels into the palace of parliament, and now she stands here again, ushering in a new era.

She announced to the tens of thousands of people gathered here, her deep and magnetic voice echoed in everyone's ears, and her words like a spring breeze blew into people's hearts.

"This is not the promise of Hathaway, the legendary magician of the Golden Family, nor the promise of Hathaway, the Virgin of the Night, nor the promise of Duchess Ted of the Dawn Empire."

"This is the promise of Hathaway Ted, the spokesperson of the Statue of Liberty. The light of freedom will surely shine on the Storm Islands, and it will also shine on the entire Fern in the future!"

As the voice fell, white light with a light blue halo overflowed from Hathaway's body, expanding into a huge phantom.A beautiful and majestic goddess stands behind Hathaway, holding a spear-like lighthouse in her hand, overlooking all living beings.

Waves of white light descended from the zenith, covering everyone, and the hearts of these people who had been numb from hardships rose up, "I should live better", "I should have happiness", "fate is in my own hands" "And so on, the thoughts rushed out, and they raised their arms and shouted.

"We want to be free—!"

"To hell with stinky fish and dry cakes! We want sweet milk and soft bread!"

"Long live freedom! Long live Hathaway!"

The cheers were like boiling oil, and there were also words like "Hathaway smiles once and each of us can get a few golden pool ears", "It's so touching that Your Highness wants to sacrifice himself for us", "I know a nobleman He is willing to pay 200 million for two hours" and other noises.

In the divine light, Hathaway gritted her teeth and sent a message to the attendants: "After the meeting is over, arrest those who have magic marks on their bodies!"

A phantom like a goblin floated beside him, and said with emotion: "The mob is talking about these people. But without such a soil, the elite will not break out of the ground."

The phantom is naturally the goddess of liberty Ranna sublimated from the afterimage of Ms. Ye. The main body is busy in the kingdom of God. Through the spirit of the contract, Misia projects a ray of will on Hathaway, paying attention to the trends of the mortal world.

Teleporting back to the hall of the Supreme Council, Hathaway glanced at the hall that still maintained its old appearance, filled with emotion.It was here that she cooperated with her mentor (of course I later found out that it was the grandfather) Menesus, and sounded the clarion call to end the old era of magicians.

Now this place belongs to her. Of course, it is not her private property on the face of it, but the property of "Free Magic Academy".But as the founder of this academy, the power she possesses is far from superficial.

Like a goblin, Ranna circled around her with wings of light, still calculating the future: "Silver City has about 20 residents, plus those scattered on other islands, nearly [-] people, relying on this number of people to make things happen , At least a few decades must be cultivated.”

Hathaway said disdainfully: "How did Li Qi and Xiaohong get started? At that time, Li Qi only had a small viscount!"

"Don't keep your head full of the old routine of farming behind closed doors in that world. Li Qi and Xiaohong relied on clinging to Theresia, integrated into the historical process, and came to the present step by step."

"They caused trouble everywhere, smashed up old fortresses everywhere, and plundered people and resources from them."

"They ran to the Godfall Plateau and digested the [-] adventurers who were active there. That was their initial capital."

"Then they snatched hundreds of thousands of Shadow City immigrants, a large number of magic workers and many low-level magicians here."

"By taking advantage of the Dawn War, we absorbed refugees and even prisoners from East Fern, as well as a large number of Benuin slaves."

"After the rise of the Mad King, they cut off a large piece of flesh from Kester, even the kobolds."

"Even so, it took them seven or eight years to do this step by step. Not only can I not farm behind closed doors, but I can't follow their steps."

"Didn't you say that we don't have seven or eight years to take our time."

Most of the truth in these words, Ran Na also understands, and concluded: "So, this is just a lair, and the real foundation is still on the side of the Dawn Empire."

Today's Hathaway Ted is no longer a member of the magician's golden family. She not only gave up all titles and positions in the Dawn Empire, but also announced her separation from the Ted family.

Her uncle Gordon Ted took over all the assets she left in the empire, and people with discerning eyes naturally knew that this was just a left-handed trick.In order to stabilize the situation, the Dawn Empire admitted this operation while pinching its nose.

Of course, Hathaway's "betrayal" had too much influence, and the Dawn Empire still showed its posture on the surface.Corresponding punitive measures include designating Hathaway herself as a traitor, lowering the titles inherited by the Ted family from dukes to marquises, and reducing fiefdoms.The Ted Academy of Magic founded by Hathaway was also taken over by the empire, and renamed the Royal Academy of Magic and Magic Sachdon Branch.

These measures are irrelevant. The empire is only targeting Hathaway herself, but the Ted family is not included in the punishment. All the magic industry is still operating normally, and the relationship with the empire is as usual.When Hathaway transferred the teachers and students of the Academy of Magic to the Storm Islands, the Kingdom of Saxdon also sent a legion to help with chores, and the top leaders of the empire collectively pretended to be deaf and dumb.

Why did Hathaway have too much influence on magicians and the magic industry, the business temple even came forward to mediate, and the Ted family also promised to be loyal to the empire as always, and fully support the empire from magic technology and products.

Ranna said: "Goddess of Commerce, when my kingdom of God is stable, I will formally contact her."

Hathaway was quite sure: "Looking at the movement of the Temple of Commerce, especially the attitude of the commercial saint Ginny and that bastard Losevus, they welcome you very much."

"Before they also tried to use the will of the elves and the silver dragon to mix together to give birth to a god, to support the expansion of the gods of business to the good camp, and to establish a new order that can make business justifiable. But they failed, and now you are the only option .”

Ran Na also sighed: "This is the established destiny. As Ms. Ye, I have arranged it long ago. The root divine power from Little Silver plus the power of the night can awaken the souls of mortals and feel that they are mixed with all living beings." Pain together."

"If you want to stay away from filth, get rid of the ordinary, surpass others, and want to sublimate to be the only one, the soul yearns for freedom. This is the will of freedom, and it is also what you are pursuing. We are one God and one man, so we can pass through the connection of Misia, Coexist as equals."

Then he said happily: "Freedom, commerce, magic, this is a solid iron triangle, and now it is only a matter of the goddess of magic's response."

Hathaway snorted: "It's not that you are too weak, Xiao Hei, you have to work hard!"

Ranna flew to Hathaway's head, messed up her black hair, and said angrily: "How can I do it alone? I still have to rely on you, the Pope, to pull believers in the main plane. Now my divine fire depends entirely on you." Coaxing those followers of Ms. Ye to transfer letters, there is not much new income!"

"Also! I said a long time ago that you are not allowed to call Xiao Hei outside! Even if no one hears it, this is outside!"

Hathaway slapped the phantom away with a wave of her hand, curled her lips and said, "Xiao Hei, I finally understand why you, like Xiao Hong, have traveled to several worlds, including that world, and still failed to achieve anything after returning."

"Pope? Do you want me to develop free faith like the church?"

"The church is an organization, or an organization that strictly distinguishes and restricts people according to their rank and status. Such an organization is the greatest violation of freedom. It is so contradictory. How can you develop your faith?"

Ranna hesitated: "What, what? Don't want to teach? You won't be as stupid as Teresia, right? Then how do you develop your faith?"

Hathaway sighed: "Freedom of belief should be contained in knowledge, business, and everyone's life. People don't need to chant the name of gods, worship gods, and keep in mind the commandments. Every detail of life is practicing Faith. In the end, every thought and even breathing of people is contributing to free belief, which can support the new order in the future."

"So, we also need the Goddess of Commerce, relying on voluntary exchange to get rid of the shackles. We also need the Goddess of Magic, relying on the power of magic to climb the road of strength. The Trinity you just mentioned should be like this, in order to form a stable iron triangle, until eternal."

Ranna was silent for a while, then flew onto Hathaway's shoulder, and sighed: "Well, it is indeed because of you that I really opened up the situation and found a new path. From this point of view, I finally caught up with you." Little red."

The light in her eyes flickered for a while, as if she was reminiscing about the past, Hathaway sighed: "Xiaohong is similar to you, both of whom are all the same, the one who really plays a decisive role is Li Qi, I still have a distance from him."

Ran Na smiled and said, "If you want to catch up with the runners ahead, you don't have to work harder."

Hathaway had a tacit understanding: "Yeah, it's easier to shoot an arrow from behind. Since it's a road dispute, it's fair."

He sighed again: "It's a pity that it's not that easy, and it's not like I haven't tried it before."

Just as I was speaking, a message from Uncle Gordon arrived.

"no problem……"

Gordon said that the empire is preparing for the battle to retake the restricted area. Although there are enough warships, the previous battles have proved that the power of the imperial warships is seriously insufficient, and it is difficult to meet the needs of speed, protection and firepower in the restricted area at the same time. The German family provides a more powerful element furnace.

"Do they want to take that warship that has been built for more than three years?"

Hathaway said: "Is the situation so corrupt?"

Gordon also said in a tone of hatred for iron and steel: "It wasn't so bad at first, but the Holy See of Order has occupied too many resources. The Heavenly Mountain repair project of the Goddess of Order should also be at a critical juncture, leaving the Empire stretched out. the idea of ​​that battleship."

Ranna snorted: "This is the situation where both hands are weak, and this dilemma is really unlucky. It is everywhere in the history of that world."

Hathaway said straightforwardly: "Give them, not only give them what they want, but also give them the things they only dare to think about, such as the eighth-level forbidden curse dissociation cannon that I originally planned to use on the Mirage. Add some buffers, do some testing and put it into practice, and it should be able to catch up with their actions."

"Don't be surprised, uncle, the empire is our basic base, and we have to do our best to keep it."

Gordon naturally had great trust in his niece. Although there were some setbacks before, but now he has turned around and "operated" to become the spokesperson of a new god, independent of all parties, which is higher than going around in the circle of the empire. up a level.

After failing to respond, Gordon said one more thing.

"What is Li Qi doing in the White Bird Kingdom?"

Hathaway frowned, she is very taboo about this kind of thing now, after all, there is a serious psychological shadow: "McGall and Bodina's gang want to die, that is their freedom, if they want to drag me into the water, there is no way! "

"Wait, White Bird Kingdom..."

Ranna noticed: "Although I can't remember the details, it seems to be related to something about Xiaoyin."

She said eagerly: "Let's be clear first, Xiaoyin has left a lot of things on the main plane, if Xiaohong uses those things to make a new Xiaoyin, my side will be in danger! Don't forget my The godhead is condensed with Little Silver's root divine power!"

Hathaway patted her forehead irritably: "I said, what kind of crap did your generation do? You threw yourself all over the ground, and it looked like you could be resurrected by just grabbing a piece. To be honest, we can only talk about it if you are completely killed. What freedom!"
