Chapter 244 The Water is Coming

"Make the drainage ditch wider!"

“Dig a line from the other side of the dam as well.”

Kirby commanded the soldiers, and after some operations, the water in the impounded lake finally flowed into the river under their control. The water gathered again at the bottom of the dry riverbed and rushed downstream.

Soon, they will re-enter the Zephyr River, pushing the water level of the Zephyr River up again.

Kirby looked at this scene and his mood finally improved.

The soldiers finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Our home is saved."

Zhang Jingyi waved to them: "Okay, then we should leave too."

Kirby: "Thank you all for your help again. I will report back to the Grand Duke about your help to us. I will let the people of Sunshine City and all the surrounding towns know about your achievements and will not let the honor that belongs to you be buried."

Hearing him say this, Zhang Jingyi's heart was slightly moved, and he thought to himself: People in this world seem to attach great importance to the word honor.

Glass once said to Uche: "Honor is more important than life."

Wu Qi also said this at the celebration meeting in Xihuang Town.

Adrian also values ​​honor, so he is unwilling to be the murderer who kills the true king.

……

This is a good thing!

A social atmosphere that pursues honor is much more lovable than a society that only pursues monetary interests.

If you want honor, you wouldn't mix mineral oil with cooking oil.

If you want honor, you won't steal bones to make filler material.

Only when honor prevails over interests can humanity shine.

Zhang Jingyi waved at Kirby and said, "General Kirby, we'll see you later."

The six druids transformed at the same time, becoming six giant owls as big as cows, and flew into the sky together.

Kirby saluted towards the sky in the distance, then turned to his subordinates and said, "For the next few days, we have to guard the dammed lake and cannot go anywhere until the lake water is drained and the river water level returns to normal. Then we will destroy the dam and return to Sunshine City."

The subordinates said in unison: "As you command! Protect the dammed lake and make sure all the water flows out."

Kirby glanced in the direction of Sunshine City from afar and thought: Glass, who went back earlier, please don't play any tricks on me...
-
Sunshine City!
Grand Duke Suleimani, the Golden Archbishop, the nobles in the city, and a large number of ordinary people were standing by the Zephyr River, looking at the river with worried looks on their faces.

The water level is still very low, and the two troops that went upstream have not sent back any news. God knows what happened upstream.

Just as he was thinking of this, he saw Glass and 50 Temple Knights appear at the farthest point of his vision.

"Ah? They are back!" The Golden Cardinal was delighted. "I hope they can bring back the reason why the water level dropped."

Soleimani frowned slightly. He found that only Glass came back, but Kabi did not come back. What happened?

Glass walked up to the Archbishop in Gold and Soleimani, bowed, and then spoke quickly in a low voice next to the Archbishop in Gold's ear.

Soleimani snorted and said, "What are you afraid to say out loud? Why are you secretly reporting to your superiors? Am I not worthy of hearing it?"

This sentence caught both the Archbishop and Glass off guard. The two looked at each other, and the Archbishop had no choice but to say, "Speak louder. The Grand Duke's men haven't returned yet, only you have returned. He must want to know what happened now. It would be rude not to let him hear it."

Glass had no choice but to speak louder: "General Kirby and I walked upstream along the river... When we reached the foot of the West Wind Mountains, we found that a tributary was cut off, so we continued upstream along that tributary, and then we found a huge dam..."

After a while, he recounted the whole story of discovering the murlocs, fighting with them, and the giant python of the abyss.

Until it came to the point where their two armies combined were no match for the giant python and had to retreat.

The Golden Archbishop couldn't help but frowned: "In this case, we can only come back and seek reinforcements."

Soleimani also said: "Since we can't win, of course we can only come back for help, but why are you the only one who came back? Where is the magic swordsman Kirby?"

Glass began to hesitate. Could he talk about the druid's matter under the current circumstances?

His hesitation made Suleimani unhappy: "Father Glass, are you hiding something?"

Glass had no choice but to grit his teeth, conceal the key issue, and continue: "I want to come back for help, but General Kirby disagrees. The barrier lake will be full in two days, and he thinks we won't have time to go back and forth for help in two days."

This is the truth!

It’s really too late!

It took Glass a full day and a half to walk from the dam back to Sunshine City.

Soleimani's expression darkened. "So, my men were unwilling to retreat in order to defend their homeland and wanted to fight. But you decided that they should retreat, so you slipped back? Did you ignore my men?"

"Hey!" The Golden Cardinal suddenly stepped forward and stood in front of Glass. "Grand Duke, what do you mean by this? Are you blaming my men? Didn't you hear him say how powerful the Abyss Python is? With their strength, they can't defeat it! Faced with the situation at that time, retreat is the best solution."

Soleimani: "What if a flood comes?"

The Golden Archbishop: "In order to solve the flood, should we fight a losing battle and die? When the flood comes, we can evacuate, we can escape, and we will only lose some farmland and buildings, but at least we can save our lives. But if we let the soldiers die, they will really die, and their death will be in vain, and it will not stop the flood from coming."

There is some truth in this!
Facing a flood, everyone could retreat and not necessarily die, but facing the abyss python, that was a sure death. Considering the situation at the time, perhaps retreat was really the best solution.

This time, Soleimani was speechless.

Just then...

A hunter suddenly shouted: "Water is coming! Water is coming."

Everyone: "?"

The hunter shouted excitedly: "The muddy river water is coming, it's not a flood, it's a signal that the water level is rising."

Everyone: "???"

Everyone was looking forward to the upstream, and soon everyone saw a stream of river water that was obviously yellower and more turbid rushing towards them.

The water level in the river was visibly pushed up...

The civilians along the river immediately cheered: "The water is coming, the water is coming."

Soleimani was overjoyed: "Did Kabi succeed? He must have defeated the Abyss Python, opened a hole in the dam, and released the right amount of water. That's why the water level rose like this without forming a flood."
