Chapter 1903 – Penitent Gods

　　The camera turned with his pointing, only to see a silver-white island standing amidst the wind and waves above the sea in the distance.

　　”A silver-colored island?” The reporter visibly froze for a moment, “That’s not right ah …… the map doesn’t say there’s an island near here ah ……”

　　”The waves are getting bigger, quick! Head for that island!!!”

　　The captain looked like he had grabbed a lifesaver and immediately shouted an order, and everyone busily returned to their posts, controlling the ship a little closer to that silver-colored island.

　　As the exploration ship moved forward with difficulty, the full picture of that island was finally gradually revealed in front of everyone.

　　Only to see in the sky between the huge waves, a silver-white sea city like a mountain standing tall, full of mottled and broken under the tall outer wall, more than ten meters high waves are like a pond splash as small.

　　The crowd stood on the deck of the exploration ship, their mouths uncontrollably wide open, and even the captain froze in place, forgetting to continue giving orders.

　　”What is …… this?” The reporter muttered, “A fortress? When was such a large fort built on the East Sea?”

　　”This sea is already near the borderline, when the mists didn’t dissipate, this was a no-navigation zone demarcated by the military.” An experienced sailor answered from the side, and shock was also written on his face, “What is such a big city and such a high wall …… at the border of Da Xia …… for defense?”

　　The reporter snapped back to his senses, came to the side of another person, and asked in a low voice:

　　”In that case, we have mistakenly entered a military stronghold and broadcasted the footage here live? Will it be alright?”

　　”Before we set out, we did apply for a route from above, and they didn’t say that they wouldn’t allow us to go this way …… And look, there doesn’t seem to be anyone in this fortress? Has it been abandoned?”

　　Hearing this answer, the worry on the reporter’s face dissipated a bit, no matter what, since it wasn’t rejected when the route was approved by the above, then it’s not a big problem.

　　”What should we do next?”

　　”Use the radio to try to ask for help inside …… Such a big wave, the ship’s hull is already almost unable to withstand it.” The captain looked skeptically at the tall outer wall in front of him, “But …… where exactly is the front door to this thing?”

　　The captain took control of the ship, navigating hard around the outer wall in the rolling waves, the crew on the side had turned on their radios to try and communicate with the wall.

　　As they continued to move forward, several large, neatly written letters outlined themselves on the surface of the outer wall:a-011, [Sinking Dragon].

　　These words were printed on the outer wall, also standing on the sky, the exploration ship in the wind and waves was not even as big as the “√” in the bottom left corner of the word “Sinking”, and the people had to tilt their heads up in order to see the full picture of these words.

　　”Sinking Dragon?” The reporter looked at this scene and muttered, “What a domineering name ……”

　　At the same time, densely packed pop-ups almost flooded the entire screen.

　　[Such a large military base? It won’t be filled with several Gundams, right?]

　　[I’ve been in the army for a few years, and I’ve never heard of the ‘Sinking Dragon’ base …… The way this place is numbered is all different from other bases, what exactly is it?]

　　[This should be @ Daxia Military!

　　I’ve seen something similar to this! Really! My hometown is in the mountains of the border, two years ago I went into the mountains to play when I got lost, walked to the top of a mountain, saw the misty border in front of the mountain there is also a silver thing, at that time I thought it was the snow].

　　[Ah yes yes, there’s one downstairs in my house too (dog’s head)]

　　[I’m not kidding, I took a picture of it, and only after I went home and enlarged it did I realize that it looked like a building …… Later, when I wanted to go there again, I was stopped by the military before I even entered the mountain, saying that there was a military base in front of me and that they wouldn’t let me in]]

　　What about your photos? How come I’ve never seen it before?

　　I’ve posted it online many times, and it’s been swallowed every time! I’ve sent it to my friends and they say it’s a photoshopped picture. ……]

　　Seriously, I’ve always thought that Daxia’s survival in the mist wasn’t due to the terrain and magnetic field as the experts said. …… Maybe there’s something protecting us in the dark.

　　[I’ve long thought so! I also posted a few articles and they were all swallowed …… Then someone from the Internet Information Office came up to me and told me not to believe the rumors, not to spread them, and gave me a warning]

　　[The mists suddenly dissipated, the six-winged figure suspected to be a heavenly god, the super fortress on the border of Daxia …… I’ll go, what’s going on lately?]

　　[……]

　　”It’s not working, no one is responding to the radio.” The crew’s voice sounded again on the screen.

　　”Change the speakers!” The captain removed a microphone from the console, took a deep breath, and the next moment his voice rang out over the waves, “This is ‘Pioneer Exploration Team’ 2, we’ve encountered a sea storm and are requesting military support …… Repeat. This is ……”

　　The captain’s voice ended abruptly just halfway through his words.

　　On the screen, he stood in front of the huge glass window in the cockpit, his eyes wide and deadpan, staring in a certain direction, as if he was motionless like a statue.

　　In the next moment, other people, including the reporter, similarly stayed in place!

　　The camera gradually moved down to a corner of the cabin, suddenly stopped motionless, as if this person carrying the camera, also saw something, the cabin fell into a brief dead silence ……

　　Rough breathing, through the relay echoed in the ears of everyone in front of the screen.

　　”What was …… that?”

　　A full five or six seconds passed before the camera shook violently, finally focusing on the upper part of the outer wall!

　　Only at the top of the outer wall filled with dark red blood stains and gaps, thirteen massive crosses were standing tall, each of them hundreds of meters tall, with different figures seemingly bound to them, and only the outline of the humanoid figures could barely be made out under the pitch-black dark clouds.

　　[What is it? The screen is too dark to see!

　　[It should be a problem with the light over there, plus the picture quality has dropped, we can only see a little shadow on our side ……]

　　[Why is there a cross on top of the military base? This cross is too big! Is it used to execute giants?

　　Wait a minute! Look closely, are there people on those crosses?

　　Don’t be ridiculous. Who could be that tall?

　　[……]

　　Stabbing..!

　　Just as the pop-up screen was frantically brushing the screen, a pale thunderbolt cut through the clouds, and the dim sky and earth looked like it had been illuminated by an incandescent light bulb for a moment, and at this moment, the people in front of the screen finally got a clear view of those crosses!

　　The remnant corpses of a god filled with pressure were firmly nailed to the crosses, and dark red blood polluted their forms with red,!

　　The thirteen crucifixes with the corpses of gods nailed to them were facing the direction of the Great Xia territory, their heads hanging low ……

　　like they were repenting.
