Release that Witch

1225. Chapter 1220 Source of the accident

    Roland has experienced the most devastating week since he took over the Neverwinter City.

    Despite all the signs that the Red Moon may be coming in much earlier than in the past, he has been working on it, but the change comes suddenly beyond everyone’s estimates-not church’s decade, nor Taqila’s two or three-year estimate, It was not long before he started the big migration plan, so he appeared in the western region without warning.

    Of course, this is not accurate.

    In the past week, there have been expedited reports from other cities, and they all mentioned the changes in the sky. And without exception, no one observed the approach and movement of the Red Moon. It seemed to be hanging there, but it was covered by the sky and invisible. Now it just uncovers the piece on it. Blue sky only.

    Roland found himself suffering from a slight “Red Moon disease”, that is, whatever he was doing, he would intentionally or unintentionally search for a window that could see the sky, and it would be easy to get into a daze when looking at Red Moon. The red glow of the circle is so huge, but it is not glaring, and it can be clearly seen in day and night. Staring for a long time, he even has an illusion that Red Moon is watching him.

    According to Federation, Red Moon is the beginning of the War of Divine Will, and Roland has been preparing for it all these years, but when it really comes, he has a sense of unreality. Fertile Plain is still quiet, and the investigation team sent to the north has no Echo. Only Neverwinter City has been affected. The Executive Office has a report every half an hour, but it has nothing to do with Devil.

    “Your Majesty,” Nightingale’s voice interrupted his thoughts. “You look at the sky again.”

    Roland blinked and returned, “Oh–sorry, I just can’t help it–“

    Nightingale teleport came over and handed a piece of dried fish to his mouth and interrupted his second half of the sentence. “You don’t have to apologize. In fact, there is nothing wrong with being in a daze. You are too tired these days, just take a break.” . Do you want me to watch the moon with you? Since Red Moon is related to the gods, it is also a kind of research to look at both eyes. ”

    Roland was suddenly teased and could say that the fish was so grandiose, probably only Nightingale alone. He licked the fish fillet and shook his head helplessly. “There are still many things to do.” Continue to supervise me, can’t deliberately release water, understand? ”

    Nightingale pouted and slid back to the sofa.

    Roland took a deep breath and pulled his attention back to the big stack of reports on the table.

    For several days Red Moon has caused more trouble to Neverwinter City than even Devil, which has hit thousands of miles. According to the statistics of the Executive Office and the Security Agency, there were four fires and 16 crimes in Neverwinter City during the week. In addition to the eight work-related accidents that were known from Anna, a total of 21 people were killed and more than 500 people were injured. Among them, 90% of the casualties occurred within 24 hours after the emergence of Red Moon. The most chaotic moment.

    At first Roland thought it was the public panic that led to all this, but when the scene situation gradually came together, he noticed that things were not so simple, so the appointment of the joint team to investigate further, and the conclusion is quite surprising–put aside the panic caused by accidents, Red Moon’s magic power fluctuations are the real culprit in this mess.

    The survey file submitted by Agatha clearly described the situation at the time.

    Around 5:35 pm, the Red Moon suddenly appeared in midair, and the magic power equipment working in Neverwinter City was affected to varying degrees. For example, the theater is on the release of the “Dust of annihilation” ending mutation, the illusion is almost the same as the real scene; the lighting in the industrial zone is instantly overloaded, the bulbs are blown, and the machine tool part of the dawn one drive is partially paralysed; the most serious accident occurred in a mechanical plant, an old-fashioned boiler exploded on the spot, The hot, high pressure steam poured all the workers around them. After the investigation, the boiler was limited by the manufacturing process, and the important parts such as the valve were solidified by Candlelight. The furnace had been hidden before, but no one noticed it.

    According to the testimony collected by the parties, it can be judged that this abnormal state lasted for about ten minutes, and then gradually stabilized. Frequent accidents exacerbated the chaos at the time, and even made many people think that Devil was attacking Neverwinter City. Although the factory had drilled an emergency response plan, it could not be performed satisfactorily. If it weren’t for Neverwinter City’s public health system that was far above the contemporary level, and with Nana’s treatment, the death toll could be several times more.

    It stands to reason that such a vision should be recorded by the Federation, but the truth is that Taqila witch is equally ignorant of this. Now think about it, either the past two Red Moons have less fluctuations in the world, or the popularity of the magic power device was not high, so no one noticed this small change.

    The impact of the accident has not yet completely ended. Since no one dares to conclude that the fluctuations will not occur again, the factory has launched a comprehensive inventory operation to improve or eliminate all kinds of old machines. The Office of Administration also completed the contingency plan, including how to stay awake and avoid panic under abnormal situations. The term “magic power accident” was also recorded in the official literature for the first time.

    On the contrary, the second release of the magic movie three days after the broadcast, triggered a new round of watching drama in Neverwinter City. The people who know the premiere story from various channels almost leave the theater, but basically all of them come to the head of “involve and change history.” Even if the magic movie has returned to normal, the enthusiasm of the audience is still not Less.

    It can be said that this is a small anecdote in the past week.

    However, this chain accident has cast a shadow on the upcoming magic cube power unit. What Roland wants to know most now is whether such volatility exists only at the moment of the Red Moon’s arrival, or irregularly throughout the War of Divine Will.

    If it is the former, it is completely acceptable for him to be separated for four hundred years. After all, defeating Devil is the most urgent task. Whether it is Dawn One or magic cube power, there is an advantage that conventional equipment can’t match, and Greycastle’s industrial ability is greatly improved. It belongs to the addictive thing that once used. But if it is the latter, then he has to consider the high risk of losing control.

    Just then, the telephone of the Executive Office rang.

    In general, only the Premier Minister Barov can enter this line.

    Roland sighed and picked up the receiver and put it in his ear. “Is there any new problem?”

    “No, Your Majesty…”Barov’s tone seems to be hesitant. “Scattered Star Scholar suddenly rushed into my office and said that he had a major discovery of Red Moon. I hope you can…No, it is for you to let yourself go to the Star Watch! ”
