Chapter 384: Besieged on all sides

Sophia smiled bitterly.

“It’s almost impossible to find him now.

There was actually no point in finding him.

He is a wise man, and if he wants to escape, no one can stop him.

But if he wants to cause destruction himself, it may not be that easy.

Although he has good strength, now that every big city is protected by barriers, he can't really make any waves.

The only thing to consider is the blue dragon, and ordinary barriers have no effect on it.

In addition, its destructive power is so great that if you give it some time, it can send the entire city of Maro to the sky. "

Ethan felt that what Sophia said was very reasonable, and solving the blue dragon was the primary goal, but...

"Where can I find the dragon?"

Sophia spread her hands: "I don't know! But I can roughly guess where it is."

"Where?"

Sophia did not answer directly, but said: "You must know that an adult dragon consumes a lot every day.

In the human world, it would be impossible to afford it without huge financial resources.

Not only can it not be raised, but its size will also expose its target, so it definitely does not live in the human world.

In the wild, there are only two places that can support an adult dragon.

One is a dark forest, and the other is the sea.

After all, the Dark Forest is too far away from here and it is impossible.

Judging from this, its nest is most likely to be on a small island offshore. "

Ethan laughed dumbly after hearing this.

“There are so many islands in the sea, and I don’t know how many have been marked, let alone those that have not yet been marked. It is impossible to find them.

You said it, but it’s as if you didn’t! "

Sophia's eyes suddenly widened: "How can it be the same as if you didn't say anything?

You don't seem to understand what I mean.

Why don't you put yourself in your opponent's shoes and think about it, what will you do next? "

Ethan immediately realized that if the other party was at sea, he would retaliate again.

Then the next step will definitely be to attack the various docks of the family, and maybe even attack the family's cargo ship.

Of course, an attack on a cargo ship is unlikely.

After all, the cargo ship is always moving, and the target is too small, even in the air, it is actually difficult to find.

Just the possibility of this is already terrifying.

As soon as he figured it out, Ethan's head suddenly got big.

You must know that the Lawson family has its own docks in many free ports, and those are fixed targets.

And the terminals are often equipped with many warehouses.

Now is the shipping season again, and warehouses are full of goods waiting to be shipped.

What if I was attacked?

In fact, it doesn’t matter if the goods are gone or the warehouse is gone, you can make money again.

The most important thing is that nothing happens to so many family members working at the dock.

If something happens to them, the family will basically be doomed.

Ethan understood what Sophia meant, so he replied: "I will arrange for the evacuation of people immediately."

"Yes!" Sophia nodded: "At the same time, you should also issue an attack warning to all the rulers of the coastal territories and ask them to send sage-level experts to take precautions.

If they had sent someone there, everything would have worked fine.

I believe that the necromancer will not risk the blue dragon being slaughtered to attack a dock.

Of course, if they don't send people, we would rather not have them at the dock, and we will definitely not harm the people. They are much more valuable than the goods.

Also, remember that the warning cannot be issued in the name of the family, but in the name of the Parliament.

In short, we must make things bigger and let everyone feel the crisis.

Only in this way can they be forced to fight against the Necromancer together. "

"Understood!"

Ethan called Papalia and asked him to deal with the matter immediately.

Paparia sent out an early warning letter in the name of the parliament through the Super Eagle that night, and at the same time notified family members at various docks to evacuate.

…

The next day, Ethan moved Sophia and the others to Bertner Manor while organizing people to participate in disaster relief in Dongcheng District.

By evening, a rough casualty count was made.

More than 4,000 people died and tens of thousands were injured. Many people were saved but were left disabled for life.

But the good news is that since Dongcheng District is a wealthy area, those who died were all kinds of idle nobles, not many civilians.

But because it was a noble who died, another piece of bad news came out.

That is, when the survivors saw that nothing happened at Turing Manor, they all blamed Ethan.

It was said that Ethan offended someone and provoked revenge, which caused everyone to suffer.

Then a large group of people gathered and started causing trouble.

Although this is true, how could Ethan admit it?

They directly charged them with spreading rumors and arrested all the people who took the lead in making trouble, barely quelling the turmoil.

On the other side, news also came from various docks.

Sure enough, as Sophia expected, the necromancer launched an attack on the southern Port of Essar during the night.

The docks and warehouses of the Lawson family were destroyed, and the docks of several other surrounding families were also damaged.

Fortunately, the notification was timely last night, so there were no casualties in the family.

However, all the goods were burned, and the loss was probably about 100,000 gold!

In addition, there is also a family cargo ship equipped with the [Windbreaker] system that has lost contact and is probably in danger.

Ethan has informed all cargo ships to suspend their routes and return to Velen Port to rest.

Of course, Ethan was not worried that so many ships would be destroyed in one fell swoop if they were concentrated in Port Vilen.

As long as Ethan was in Maro City, it would only take a few minutes to get to Port Vilen.

He also arranged for the extraordinary eagle to patrol there.

As long as the necromancer dared to come, not only would you not be able to burn the ship, but the dragon's life would also be saved.

However, the entire family's industry came to a standstill after being dealt with by the necromancer.

It's okay for a short time, but if it lasts for a long time, the family may not be able to hold on, after all, people have to eat.

Now Ethan is really having a headache.

Not only does he have to face pressure from within the family, but he also has to face accusations from outside.

The allies in the parliament have vaguely guessed that it was Ethan who caused the disaster.

Although their territories were basically outside the city and they did not suffer much loss in this attack, they all began to distance themselves from the Lawson family, fearing that the disaster would fall on them.

The most obvious manifestation is the economic decoupling from the Lawson family.

The family already had no income, and if they were to be decoupled, it would be even worse for the Lawson family's industry.

In addition, in addition to the allies in the parliament, the rulers along the coast who received the warning letter also sent messengers to inquire about the situation.

Even those who knew the truth, such as Duke Owen, directly sent people to put pressure on Ethan to solve the problem quickly.

Otherwise, they would make the truth public.

Ethan felt that he was surrounded by enemies, and he also wanted to solve the problem quickly, but the problem was that he couldn't solve it.

Just when Ethan was about to be driven crazy, the half-orc doctor Livingston found him, and everything suddenly took a turn for the better...
