Vol 4 Chapter 64: meaning of funeral

Text Chapter 64 The Meaning of Funerals

With the meticulous operation of Anson and Carl Bain, and the tacit cooperation of the "Beautiful People of Moby Dick", an article titled "Rage! Heretic Gangsters Assassinate the Commander Again, Speaker Harold Comes to the rescue!" The reports came out quickly and freshly.

For a remote city on the edge of the world like Beluga Port, "news" has nothing to do with them; only the sailors of the ship every year bring some "anecdote" from half a year or even a year ago, which can be diluted a little. Boring day-to-day chores that give you something to talk about for the rest of the year.

But since the arrival of the storm division, everything has changed.

Beluga Port not only has its own local newspaper, but also has big news every three days - today is the announcement of the establishment of the Faithful Alliance, tomorrow is the assassination of the garrison commander, the day after tomorrow is parliamentary reform, the day after tomorrow is the commander's assassination... So why? Is it "again"?

Of course, this is not the point. The point is that the life of the people of Beluga Harbour has suddenly become very exciting, and all kinds of news are simply overwhelmed; from a corner on the edge of the world, suddenly enjoying the treatment of residents in the inner city of Clovis, Life is full of freshness.

Under the "immersive" description of the newspaper, the evil heretics not only did not reflect on the failure of the last time, but instead decided to intensify their efforts and brazenly attempted to use artillery to assassinate Commander Ansen Bach!

And Speaker Harold, who just "assisted" the commander in completing the parliamentary reform, not only did not feel resentment because of his loss of power, but bravely stepped forward to stop the thugs, and was killed!

But his sacrifice was not meaningless—the cavalry lieutenant Jason Fruhoff, who got the information for the first time, arrived at the scene in time, turned the tide and wiped out all the murderers.

A disaster that should have affected the entire Beluga Port was saved in this way.

On the second day after the news was published, Anson held a grand and grand funeral for the "heroic sacrifice" Speaker Harold in the square outside the gate of the Beluga Harbor Parliament; all 500 members were present, Come and mourn the hero who gave his life for the prosperity and stability of Beluga Port.

Anson in uniform, accompanied by the equally serious Chief of Staff Carl, Head of Fabien, and Talia August Rune, walked onto the podium with a heavy heart.

There was an empty black coffin behind him, because the cruel cultists destroyed the speaker's body. There was only a formal suit he usually wore, plus a portrait placed outside the coffin... Very regrettable.

Of course, this regret is only temporary.

Beneath the podium, Harold's wife stood at the front of the crowd in a long black dress, a veil and a white scarf; this well-dressed lady's eyes were slack, her expression more confused and dazed than pain.

"It is with a heavy heart that we come to cherish the memory of a Beluga hero."

"Harold Lefkas, Speaker of the Moby-Dick Harbor Council, was a trustworthy friend, a wonderful husband and father, a qualified leader, and a true hero."

"I don't have much contact with him, but in just less than a month of contact, I realized what an amazing person this amazing Speaker is!"

"From him, I saw how strong a person can be, and the risk and sacrifice spirit most worthy of praise; what unprecedented courage and unprecedented openness, with him, the future initiative of Beluga Port It will be prosperous and prosperous!"

"Now, he sacrificed; not for me! Not for his own selfishness, or for any dark and filthy thoughts hidden deep in our minds, but for a noble spirit, pure faith."

"He did not die for Anson Bach, his best friend; but for Moby-Dick Harbor, for thousands of followers of the Ring of Order, for this land he loved so much!"

"He has no turning back, he is generous without turning back, and he sings praises in front of the gangster's spears and bayonets and swords, swearing to death without begging for mercy!"

"This is what a hero looks like, this is the hero of our Beluga Harbor!"

Holding the speech in his hand, An Sen kept his head down, his solemn expression solidified on his face, making the audience feel his emotional pain.

Of course, he was really in pain—the little secretary stuffed the speech to himself early in the morning, and the whole 20,000 words also added a bunch of particularly awkward words, forcing Anson to jump and read, and be careful not to put the speech. "Pause here", "wave your hand here", "look at the audience here"... etc. prompts are also read out.

But he can't blame him. After all, he made a temporary decision to give a funeral speech, and there was simply not enough time left for him to write a new speech. Sark", only the names of people and places are replaced.

Anyway, it was just a formality. Except for Bishop Ripper, the members present seemed to really think that Harold was dead. Although the rest of them did not know the real situation, they were somewhat aware of it.

After all, only the dead Speaker Harold would acquiesce that Anson Bach was his best friend—mainly because there was no way to retaliate.

"Some people are alive, but they are just walking dead without beliefs and ideals, and they are no different from the dead."

"Some people die, but he lives forever - not in flesh and blood, but in a noble spirit, a great milestone, a milestone that shines for all!"

"Harold Lefkas, my best friend, has left us forever; but his thoughts and achievements are always with us, and it was he who opened my eyes to a whole new world, one within reach A better future, a better future!”

"And from now on, we want to make that future no longer a dream, but a real down-to-earth!"

Whenever Anson recited a sentence, Carl Bain, who was standing in the back row, would twitch at the corners of his mouth, desperately lowering his head to restrain his trembling shoulders.

"The 101st year of the saint's calendar, January 31st, is a day that will be remembered forever."

"Today, Moby-Dick has a true hero and a great person to represent her; the garrison and the Faithful will build a statue of Speaker Harold to stand in front of the gates of Parliament, holding a torch, Light up all of us."

"And I also officially declare on behalf of the garrison legion that I will officially declare war on all the heretics who try to get their hands on the Beluga Harbor colony!"

"Beluga Harbor... It can only be the Beluga Harbor for the people of Beluga Harbor!"

As Anson's voice fell, thunderous applause broke out around the podium, and a pair of raised hands kept slapping each other to celebrate this sacred and solemn moment.

………………

Facts have proved that Speaker Harold's "death" has made a greater contribution to the unity of Beluga Port than he was alive in his entire life.

The parliament, which was originally divided due to reforms, suddenly became "solidarity" again - and completely got rid of the previous state of idleness, and began to be very busy.

Every day, four new committees are established, and then three old committees are disbanded; the former amicable members of the parliament have begun to engage in endless quarrels over appropriation, funding, and division of power and responsibilities, and even fight directly.

The actual power of the entire Beluga Harbor Council was tightly held by Harold, relying on private compromises to buy and control the entire Council, barely maintaining a delicate balance between the interests of all parties.

Now that Harold has "sacrificed", the five hundred councillors have divided power and brought all disputes of interest to the surface; Mason Weizler, who is loyal to the commander, obviously did not suppress everyone's prestige, only Choose to let it go, while trying to make sure you get the most out of it.

The Faithful Alliance replaced the Storm Division, and these zealots with only their hearts took to the streets with second-hand old weapons and took over the security of Beluga Harbor.

The results came as no surprise: shootings and violence of all kinds occurred every day, and almost all of them were concentrated in the streets and communities inhabited by Aboriginal and newcomers; for a while, Anson felt a sense of returning to Clovis. , the illusion of living in the outer city.

The Faithful Alliance, which has absolutely no experience in public security management, maintains public security by increasing patrols. As a result, the few manpower is exhausted, and residents of various communities quickly find out their patrol routes and timings.

Combined with the unabashed distaste for the Aboriginals by the fanatics, each event ends up being a "street trial" - the Aboriginal people are watched, mocked, killed...

And this extreme targeting behavior naturally caused resistance from the indigenous people.

Beluga Harbor is only a colony that has only been established for fifty years. Even in the "Beluga Harbor" as the colony's base camp, a large number of indigenous people still live and undertake a large number of the most basic public services in the city.

In the face of brutal fanatics, the indigenous people who had figured out their patrol routes and timing began to raid and loot the houses of alliance members while they were away, ambush and shoot down Shan’s patrolmen, and then send high-value extortion letters to the church.

In just two days, the law and order in Beluga Harbor deteriorated to a point where it was even more chaotic than before the arrival of the Storm Division; not only did the members of the alliance were killed, but three hundred rifles were even lost one after another.

That's right, it was lost, not broken, and all of them were scattered in the communities with the worst security and the largest number of indigenous people... Beluga Port, which was originally a mess, began to show a cliff-like decline in security. It is clear that the Faithful Alliance, which is already incompatible between the two sides, has begun to intensify its treatment of the indigenous people.

Bishop Ripple is in a state of anxiety all the time - he himself has no sympathy for the indigenous people, and he thinks it is logical to shoot the infidels, but the chaotic and bad security situation has made all his previous promises.

Once it is proved that the Alliance of Faithful Believers cannot maintain the security of Beluga Harbor, Anson Bach will definitely take back this precious power; and this will affect the image of the Alliance among the believers, making his years of hard work come to nothing.

But although he himself is very appealing, he is completely ignorant in management, and can only rely on those "very motivated" fanatics to handle specific work for him.

And the way these mad believers deal with it is to premeditately attack the places where the indigenous people often gather and wipe them out.

Beating, mocking, arson, looting... Finally, a "trial of faith" was held in full view, and these indigenous peoples were either converted or hanged.

Although the Chief Sheriff Lisa Bach is still working hard to fight criminals, the citizens of Beluga Harbour can still feel that the atmosphere around them is becoming more and more tense, and the streets outside the parliamentary area are no longer safe. .

However, considering that each sheriff's attack often inevitably affects passers-by, it is difficult to say whether it makes the people of Beluga Harbor feel safer or more dangerous.

And in this peaceful atmosphere, there is one more important matter that must be resolved as soon as possible.

That is the murderer behind the murder of Speaker Harold.

Anson didn't intend to kill all the indigenous people in Beluga Harbor - and it was impossible to kill them all - let alone a perfect replica of last year's riots in Clovis City in Beluga Harbor, or to kill half of the city. Blast to heaven.

So he had to find a scapegoat to take on the "criminal" of killing Harold and murdering himself, making this man a "heretic" that all the people passed on.

Coincidentally, ~www.novelmt.com~ now happens to have such a person in his hand...or a group of people.

So the next day's "Beautiful People of Beluga Port" immediately published the latest progress on "Harold's death": "After being informed by reason, moved by emotion, and the most profound spiritual education, shameless The gangsters finally confessed the mastermind behind them!"

"The midnight attack on Weizler's Mansion is by no means accidental. The successive assassinations against the Commander-in-Chief were actually the result of careful planning. The death of Speaker Harold was a huge conspiracy, and the entire Beluga Harbor was shrouded in this terrifying layer. Under the shadows!"

"And hiding behind the scenes to plot and even implement all this is a terrifying and powerful cult organization, which is more terrifying than the old gods, more cunning than the indigenous people, and more evil than the indigenous pagans..."

"It's... The Faithless Knights!"

puff-

Looking at the newspaper that Karno brought back in his hand, Ian fell directly from the chair, and the overturned soup bowl spilled all over him.

"We're running out of time."

The expressionless Carno stepped forward and picked up the soup bowl that had been knocked to the ground: "The people from the Faithful Alliance are already coming this way, and it is a letter from the aborigines clerks in the nearby market; the alliance promised As long as information about the 'Harold killer' is provided, they can be kept safe."

"If you're not going to cause a massive uproar in Moby Dick, you have to leave in ten minutes at the latest - is there any safe place?"

"There's...and it's definitely safe enough."

Ian gritted his teeth and stood up and said, exuding a strong smell of onion and potato soup:

"Let's find Anson!"
