Chapter 129 In the Eastern District

The illusory wall of flames surrounded the Black Death that suddenly broke in. Standing on the bow of the ship, it stood provocatively in the direction of Admiral Hell and Admiral Blood, attacking Tracy who was ready to attack like the sky.

The fallen Valkyrie, even her pale face caused by not fully recovering from the previous battle, has become an embellishment to set off her heroic spirit, further highlighting the fierce temperament of the sick lieutenant general.

This is the pirate general, Sequence Five with profound background support... Alger, who was closer to the crater, took advantage of the special fossil pendant on his chest to have a premonition and took the initiative to take two steps back.

The battlefield there was simply not something he could set foot on at his level. Even if they were both Sequence Five, those pirate generals were definitely the best among Sequence Five.

If everything goes well, and I finally become the "Ocean Singer" with the help of His Highness Edmund, then can I break away from the Church of Storms and dominate the sea...

Alger thought wildly, but quickly denied his fantasy.

Unlike other churches, the Church of Storms and the Church of God of War will not let their traitors run free. They will eradicate these scum that have tarnished the glory of God at all costs.

After adjusting his mentality, he cast his gaze again, and an extremely strange scene occurred between the pirate generals.

Tracy's terrifying ice spear was entangled with Ludwell's undead, soaring straight into the sky; while Star Admiral Cattleya's magic and Blood Admiral's scream were offset, and the aftermath was also distorted by strange power, flying towards

the sky.

"Private fights between pirates are prohibited here!"

Without warning, a deep voice containing spiritual power instantly spread throughout the island.

This is a standard legal order format, but it was not issued by any "judge".

"I will obey your will, the great Earl Bai Feng." On the Golden Dream, Edwina, who was dressed in neutral clothing, lowered her head first and took the initiative to greet Nast Solomon who used twisted power to convey his will.

.

They are both descendants of Emperor Russell's courtiers, and their relationship is relatively subtle.

"I obey your will, Count Bai Feng." After seeing Edwina give up the confrontation, Cattleya, who was rumored to have broken up with the mysterious Queen Bernadette, also lowered her head.

Soon, all the illusory flame walls on the sea disappeared. The five pirate generals present separated and moved to other docks, boarding the island from different directions.

Alger, who had witnessed the entire process halfway up the mountain, was still standing there with his hands behind his back, but his eyes had long since left the dock where he originally looked.

His eyes were focused on the other direction of the island, and the huge black sail occupied his eyes.

Suddenly, Tracy, who was just about to return to the captain's cabin, turned her head towards the direction of the mountain, whether intentionally or unintentionally, and stared at it hesitantly for two seconds. As she looked, the focus in her eyes seemed to have lost focus.

But when he didn't find anything unusual, the heroic and charming pirate general withdrew his attention and walked straight back to his captain's cabin.

"What a terrifying intuition..." In the shadow where the plank road connected with the interior of the extinct volcano, Alger took a deep breath, and his suddenly accelerated heartbeat gradually returned to calm.

............

It was noon, and in a cheap cafe with no one around, Klein, who hadn't eaten much for breakfast, was tasting toast dipped in low-quality butter, chewing it extremely carefully.

Opposite him, although there was nothing in his stomach, Kohler still restrained himself from gobbling up food. He shoved the food into his mouth as quickly as possible, filling his chapped lips.

He had toast in one hand and milk in the other. After swallowing what was in his mouth, he took the time to raise his head and sincerely thanked Klein again:

"Thank you, you are such a good person and kind-hearted gentleman."

This is already the third time you have thanked me... Klein deftly pressed the wood thorns in the cheap toast to his lips with his tongue and gave him a smile back, and said without caring:

"This is only an advance payment, including the one-sule coin."

He did not tell the worker his name, nor his true purpose. He just said that he wanted to understand the environment in the East District, was interested in some things between gangs and factories, and tried his best to disclose his identity to some enthusiastic reporters.

Get closer.

As he said that, looking at Kohler who had almost eaten, Klein took out the pen and paper he carried with him and shook it in a pretentious manner.

"Actually, I just need you to familiarize me with the surrounding environment. This will be of great help to my research."

"For example, we can start with the dock you are most familiar with. What is your life like at the dock?"

After hearing the simple question asked by the kind-hearted gentleman, Kohler was still worried that she was not qualified for the work entrusted by the kind-hearted gentleman. She secretly exhaled, took a sip of milk to suppress the food in her throat, and then slowly said while recalling:

"The dock, the dock is actually quite complicated. After all, there are many bosses who have business here. Most of the time, old guys like me who have no strength and no special skills and cannot compete with the boys for jobs can only stay here. You see today

My place is waiting for some kind-hearted foreman to come to me and see where there is a shortage of jobs, and we will fill it. Although the wages given are only more than half of those young men's wages, but for a bachelor like me,

When a person is full, he has nothing to worry about."

Klein, who was holding the free tea, quietly looked at the old worker opposite him who was chattering about the trivialities of life. The pen he held in his hand was counted on the notebook, and he didn't write a single word until the ink was printed.

Opposite me, old Kohler seemed to notice the good gentleman's abnormal mood. He pursed his lips nervously, stopped talking, and looked at the opposite side with wandering eyes.

"Sir, did I say something wrong?"

"Of course not. After all, I have never worked at the dock." Klein suddenly raised a smile, explained softly, and then continued:

"It's just that what I heard in newspapers and social reports before is different from what you said. They often publicize how many charity jobs various social organizations provide for the unemployed in the East District."

Since George III came to the throne, Roon, whose industrial system has basically taken shape, has been facing serious social problems. After the Backlund Bridge strike and the Conston Financial Exchange incident, large financial institutions headed by Bavart Bank

A special type of fund was established specifically to support the development of workers' rights protection organizations and to establish relationships with workers' organizations that emerged near the Jianhai area.

After decades of development, the trade union organizations now popular in major cities are almost a combination of the original rights protection organizations and spontaneous joint groups. The leaders of them have even entered the parliament, enjoyed a certain social status, and become

The main force in submitting proposals related to industrial issues.

And just when I traveled through time and was still in Tingen, I remember that during the great discussion after the promulgation of the Corn Laws, many newspapers reported that the trade unions had united with some factory owners to expand production and solved the employment problem for a considerable number of workers.

question......

But looking at the current situation, it turns out that Roen, who is equally reserved, has the same purpose as the British Empire... Klein raised the corners of his mouth unnaturally, and then calmed down quickly.

Old Kohler, who was sitting opposite, saw that the kind gentleman was not dissatisfied with his answer, so he boldly continued to speak.

"Actually, those kind-hearted factory owners have helped many young men get jobs, and some of the remaining ones who are not in good health have also found jobs in other places. The son and husband of a family I met on the dock before went to the surrounding areas.

I am working in a factory that has just opened in the countryside. I heard that in a few weeks, family members will be able to take over. I heard that there are several companies that have found jobs just like this..."

"Then why didn't you go?" Klein asked abruptly.

Being asked a question suddenly, Kohler was stunned for a moment and opened his mouth, and his already hoarse voice became even deeper.

"I don't have any family members. The requirement of those factories is that they must have family members. If Varro and Rinata are still here, I should have a chance."

Klein froze in his seat for a moment and did not sigh after all.

............

In the deep darkness, almost all the ruins of the temple collapsed, and the outline of the ruins of the collapsed brick walls and stone pillars was looming. Looking from a distance, only a dark brown color patch remained.

Quiet, it was obviously as quiet as other places, but at this moment, Derrick felt inexplicably cold.

He couldn't help but recite the incantation in a low voice in giant language, and a warm and bright light radiated from his body.

"Extinguish these lights, Derrick!"

Although he desperately hoped that the warm glow would stay for two more seconds, for the safety of the team, the captain of Derrick's patrol team had to stop in a low voice and gave him a serious glare.

"Yes." Derrick, who had regained his composure, quickly extinguished his own light, and placed his hands on the hilt of the Silencer's sword again.

While taking a deep breath, he accidentally noticed that Elder Lovia, who was walking at the front of the team and standing side by side with the chief, had just taken his eyes away from him and looked elsewhere.

Did the light I emitted just now attract Elder Lovia's attention?

As the first Extraordinary of the "Sun" path in Silver City in the past ten years, Derrick moved in the direction of his captain, the "Dawn Knight", without disturbing the original team distribution.

Depend on.

Since the last time I contributed the "Singer" formula to the six-person council in order to complete the transaction at the Tarot meeting, several Beyonders from the "Sun" path have appeared in Silver City one after another, and I am no longer so eye-catching.

.

The exploration team advancing in a triangular position was getting closer and closer to the ruins of the True Creator. In the shadows on the side of the temple ruins, six points of scarlet light emerged from the richness.

Loholid, the "Three-Headed Cathedral", was monitoring the team in Silver City with six eyes, and the darkness that was everywhere on the earth seemed to be nothing to him.

"A 'Witcher', and my lovely 'Shepherd'...hehehehe." The youngest head chuckled and retracted into the shadows, and the other two followed closely behind, sideways.

Fang's shadow returned to calm again.

"I hope your meat is fresh enough."
