Xue Hua put down his book, flicked the candle on the table to be brighter, then walked to the window with the candlestick in hand and looked at the busy male servants in the sacrificial square.
The burned-out remains of Huomu Mountain were huge and heavy, and some were even still smoldering inside. These slaves had no tools or help, so they could only carry them on their shoulders and hands. Occasionally they were burned by smoldering logs, and they were even lightly injured.
I didn't even dare to hum.
Not far from them, a group of punishers holding short sticks stood there, supervising them to clean up the sacrificial square.
These vicious women can be said to be ruthless. As long as anyone dares to hesitate or make any sound during the cleaning process, they will hit the male's lower body with the short stick in their hands!
The punished must endure the severe pain and stand up straight, and is also not allowed to make any sound, otherwise he will be labeled as "blasphemy" and receive an uncontrolled beating.
At this moment, Xue Hua had already seen at least a dozen men being dragged into corners by several women because they could not hold back the unspeakable pain. In just a few minutes, those men who were dragged into corners were
It will be carried out as a tortured corpse.
But the faces of the women in the Punisher Corps were full of satisfaction.
Obviously, the men who were dragged to the corner to accept the punishment of "blasphemy" also encountered other unspeakable malicious treatment.
Xue Hua even saw several children who looked less than ten years old being punished with "blasphemy" by those evil women for various reasons...
Standing by the window, he looked at the tragic scenes happening below, his face sullen, and an unpredictable cold light flashing slowly in his eyes.
At this moment, two Amazon warriors from the Storm Valkyrie Guard came to the foreign guest building and knocked on the door.
Xue Hua put the candlestick on the table, closed the window pane, walked downstairs and opened the door.
"Hello, Mr. Xue, this is a letter that Her Majesty the Queen of our clan has asked me to deliver to you."
One of the two female warriors handed a yellow leather envelope to Xue Hua and said respectfully.
"Yes, I understand." Xue Hua took the letter, nodded, and said nothing more.
He is not in a very good mood now and does not want to deal with the Amazons.
The two guard members obviously noticed this. They looked back at the scene in the sacrifice square not far away, and both of them had a wry smile on their faces.
"Then, let's take our leave first."
Now that the letter has been delivered and the guest is in a bad mood, the two female guards decided not to continue asking for trouble here.
They stood in a row, bowed respectfully to Xue Hua, then quickly turned around and left the small courtyard outside the foreign guest building.
"Who is it? Why don't you invite others to come in and sit down?" After the Valkyrie Guards left, Kane walked out of the room upstairs.
"They are the Valkyrie Guards. They are here to deliver a letter." Xue Hua shook the letter in his hand, walked to the table in the hall, waved his hand gently, and lit the candlestick on the table.
"Is it a letter from Queen Xiange?"
"Yes." Xue Hua nodded, took out a letter opener, and gently scraped off the sealing wax on the envelope.
Kane slowly walked down the stairs and sat down at the table, waiting for Xue Hua to finish reading the letter first.
In the letter, Queen Sarah relayed to Xue Hua the recent confrontation between her and Seaspear Queen Hannah and Chanting Queen Fina. She also told them that High Priest Anji had been captured and had now been deprived of her status as High Priest.
He was thrown into death row and prepared to be executed on the day when the promotion ceremony ended.
But due to various reasons, they cannot touch Fina for the time being. Unless she makes another rash move in this matter, it is indeed impossible to defeat her with this information alone.
After reading this news, Xue Hua was a little shocked. It turned out that the sea giant they met at sea actually had such an origin.
Messenger of the Storm Goddess...
According to this, the legendary goddess should be real, right?
And judging from the history of the Amazons, it seems that the female warriors who took the road to transcendence in ancient times also obtained the power to control thunder and lightning from the Storm Goddess through the sacrifice of "circumcision".
But the question is, if this god is real, then where did she go when hell began to invade the world of Sanctuary?
Did he die?
Or was it banned for some other reason?
Also, what is the "top secret of the Amazons" that Mr. Kane mentioned when the Queen of the Xiange Tribe visited?
Is it really just as simple as "a dusty past event" as Sarah said?
What is the connection between this incident and the Storm Goddess?
Xue Hua shook his head and handed the letter to Kane, wanting to see what the old man thought of it.
Kane finished reading the letter quickly, but his face was also full of confusion.
"Storm Goddess..." Kane murmured and quickly fell into deep thought.
"Should this matter be reported to the parliament?" Xue Hua asked.
"No...just what we have in hand is not enough to attract the attention of the council...Let's see first. If the Singing Queen is really sure that the Storm Goddess has responded to them, then she will definitely not give up.
....."
Kane put the letter on the table, stretched out his thin fingers and tapped the armrest of the chair rhythmically.
After a while, he raised his head to look at Xue Hua and said, "Although it was unintentional, we did destroy the Singing Queen's plan, so she will definitely investigate this.
Queen Sarah did not inform her of the source of the sea giant's information, but this was her territory after all, and if she wanted to investigate, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to keep this matter secret for long.
We have to be extra careful next time..."
"It doesn't matter, if she wants to investigate, let her do it. Even if she finds something, does she still dare to attack us blatantly?
Moreover, I am not afraid of her."
Xue Hua shook his head and was not worried about this.
With the powerful insect swarm as his backing, Xue Hua has no fear even if he is the enemy of the entire Amazon clan.
What's more, as he said before, the chanting tribe is far from representative of the entire Amazon tribe.
"I know you're not afraid, but you have to think about your two little mercenaries. They are currently undergoing the most critical trial in their lives. You don't want them to suffer unnecessary interference because of this matter, right?
?”
"..." Xue Hua fell silent. Indeed, the current trial between Annie and Funia is his biggest weakness.
They are now on the territory of the Singing Tribe, and even though the promotion ceremony has always been known for being fair and just, it is difficult to guarantee that those guys will not use some tricks.
"I will pay attention..."
Xue Hua shook his head in frustration.
"Don't worry too much. Starting tomorrow, I will officially observe this promotion ceremony as a parliamentary supervisor. If the Singing Queen really wants to make a fuss about this matter, I will ensure that she at least cannot do it blatantly."
Kane nodded and comforted Xue Hua.
"And with Anne and Funya's current capabilities, some simple conspiracies and tricks cannot have any actual impact on them..."
