Chapter 788 - 788 785 News from the North

?Chapter 788: Chapter 785 News from the North Chapter 788: Chapter 785 News from the North It is said that in the distant and frigid Chill Sea, an organization known as the “Northern City-State Alliance” was taking shape under the cover of night.

The legendary “Iron Marshal” led his Undead army to dominate the night, taking control of the situation before the tensions caused by the scarcity of sunlight among the City-States could reach a breaking point. Cold Harbor and Morpheus Port were initial supporters, and under the witness of the Sea Mist, a pact was made—
Now, a mighty united fleet had been established that protected these sunlight-deprived City-States through the increasingly dangerous and twisted nights, while the “Solar Fragment Distribution Committee,” jointly established by the various City-States and churches, was closely monitoring the Sun Shards that had fallen into the sea, ensuring that these remnants of the apocalypse could promptly light up the darkest places during the long nights.

Heidi put down the newspaper in her hand and looked up at her mother sitting beside the candlestick—the city’s generator had been fixed, and now, the bright electric lights once again illuminated the living room. But her mother still insisted on placing a candlestick in the living room, ensuring that there was at least one candle lit at all times.

“Currently, no City-State in the north is allowed to possess a Sun Shard for an extended period”, Heidi remarked with information from her previous visit to the city hall, “The Solar Fragment Distribution Committee rotates the Shards among the City-States to prevent mutations from developing in areas that remain in darkness for too long. So now, the northern City-States are actually taking turns ‘having daylight’. The large engineering vessels that tow the Sun Shards cruise the Chill Sea, with those ‘little suns’ maintaining the safety of each City-State…”

She paused for a moment, then continued, “Moreover, this restarts the previously halted sea transport between City-States—cargo ships can set out alongside those engineering vessels towing the Sun Shards. Although the overall efficiency is lower than before, at least the logistics among the City-States have resumed…”

She stopped, thought for a moment, and couldn’t help but exclaim from the bottom of her heart, “It’s really impressive… It seems the ‘Iron Marshal’ is not like some rumors suggest, a ‘King of the Undead’ who enforces a reign of terror…”

“Rumors are rarely trustworthy. Don’t forget, the Homeloss is still at the edge of the world searching for hope for us”, said her mother, smiling slightly as she worked on her needlecraft, “Was that what you heard at the city hall?”

“The newspaper doesn’t have that much detail,” Heidi pointed at the newspaper on the table, “I heard it from people in the secretary’s office—the details about the Northern City-State Alliance and the Solar Fragment Distribution Committee aren’t publicized in the newspapers, but they’re not exactly secrets either.”

After pondering for a moment, her mother began to speak slowly, “Is that so… Then it seems we will soon have our own City-State Alliance and Solar Fragment Distribution Committee.”
