Chapter 1151 Aid From Loren
The latest website: The deck of Bitter Winter fell silent for a few seconds. Azalena stood there staring into Byron's eyes with a calm and peaceful smile on her face—until Byron suddenly laughed too, holding her hands together. Spread out: "I'm joking with you - Azalena, why are you here?"
"Are you sure you're joking?" The Dragon Seal Witch looked up and down Byron several times in disbelief, with a suspicious expression on her face, "Didn't you just try to recall it in the few seconds just now?"
"I haven't lost that memory yet," Byron waved his hand, "You haven't said it yet, why are you here?"
"I led the Dragonborn team from Longyue Cliff and arrived in Tarrond a day earlier than you," Azalena said casually as she walked forward, "We camped in Binhai County yesterday, you The guy who claims to be driving the fastest warship in the world is still floating on the icy sea. Just now I heard the sentinel from Binhai County mention that you encountered disorderly turbulence at sea, so I flew over with the dragons to check the situation... I didn't expect You are all well."
Byron crossed his arms, with a proud smile on his face: "It's not an encounter, it's just passing by, it's a huge difference—and we have the world's best navigators and escort teams, as well as people who are strong enough to withstand storms at sea. Even if a modern ship is plunged into disorderly turbulence, it can escape safely. Your worries are unnecessary. In addition, I must emphasize that the Winter is definitely the fastest warship in the world, but if you use It would be a bit unreasonable for your wings to compete with it in speed, not to mention that the Winter Winter will sail with so many cargo ships-I can't drive the output of the power ridge to the maximum and then shake off the entire fleet and rush towards it. Tarrond?"
Having said that, he couldn't help but stop, his eyes stayed on Azalena for a few seconds, the scene when the red dragon landed just now emerged in his heart, and it turned into a sigh: "It was the first time I saw it just now. To your...another pose."
Azarena cast a puzzled look: "So?"
"It's nothing, it just feels incredible," Byron scratched his hair, "I've dealt with other dragonborn, and even other giant dragons, but I just take their 'other attitude' for granted, But you... We used to be in the same mercenary team, and there were many companions at that time... I never thought that one day I would see you flying in the sky like a dragon, do you know this feeling? Those scales, Claws...of course I mean they're awesome, just incredible..."
"If you haven't read many books, don't squeeze your limited vocabulary." Azalena stared at Byron and suddenly laughed, "I know this feeling, we are all different from what the other party remembers ——Believe me, when I found out that you became the general of the human empire, I was definitely more surprised than when you saw me spread my wings and fly in the sky."
After the Dragon Seal Witch finished speaking, Byron couldn't help rubbing his chin and thinking,
He began to deduce whether the other party was praising himself or scolding himself, and at this moment, the black dragon Mokrul finally had the opportunity to speak beside him: "General Byron, and this...Ms. know?"
"Some friendships from many years ago," Byron turned his head and said casually. "We used to take risks together, but then we lost contact, and we didn't meet again until recently in an accident."
Azalena also looked at the young black dragon with a polite and peaceful smile on her face: "Hello, I am the leader of the aid team that the Holy Dragon Principality aided Tarrond this time. We are the first batch of Team—I hope we have a good time together in the next period of time, as you know, both dragonborn and pure blood dragons need some time to... get to know each other better."
Then she looked away and nodded slightly to Byron: "I just came down to say hello to you, and now I'm going back to the sky. By the way, are you interested in experiencing the feeling of flying? I can give you a ride. "
Byron thought for a while, then waved his hands again and again: "I'll forget it... I'm not very interested in flying... and I'm the fleet commander, so it's definitely impossible for me to leave my post without authorization."
"Well, at least it's a reliable reason." Azalena didn't seem surprised by such a response, she just waved her hands as she turned and walked towards the edge of the deck, her words drifting with the wind, "Then we Farewell, Tarrond—"
As the voice fell, the tall red-haired figure was shrouded in a gorgeous light curtain. She jumped off the edge of the deck, fell into the slightly undulating sea, and turned into a giant dragon in the next second, with a rather imposing look The gesture jumped up from the side of the Winter's ship, and amidst the buzzing sound of the giant mechanical wings and the booster device, the red dragon covered with steel armor had already rushed into the sky.
Byron raised his head, followed Azalena's figure and looked at the group of dragons circling in the sky. After a long time, he muttered softly: "...It's really unbelievable..."
The eyes of the black dragon Mokrul couldn't help but glanced at the human admiral several times, and then looked up at the red dragon hovering in the sky. After looking back and forth several times, he couldn't help asking: "I Suddenly a little curious... The relationship between the two of you is really just as simple as the adventure partners in the past?"
"Otherwise?" Byron looked at the black dragon suspiciously, "Could it be that you still think I owe her money?"
Mokrul: "..."
After being choked for a while, the young black dragon smiled and reorganized his words: "General Byron, as far as I know... your daughter is actually an adopted daughter, you have never been married, right?"
"Of course," Byron nodded nonchalantly, "it's not a secret—although I don't mind forming a family with a like-minded lady one day, it's a pity that I haven't met the right one for many years. Feelings, and in my opinion, if there is no "compatibility" in fate, a casual partner will only affect the speed of swinging the sword..."
Mokrul stared blankly at Byron's serious speech, and subconsciously thought, "You are a bachelor with a lot of theoretical knowledge"—but although he was a man who had never left Tar Lund, the "lower dragon clan" who only rely on synergists and immersive entertainment to survive every day, also knows the basic rules of getting along at this time. After swallowing the words in his heart, the black dragon showed a slightly stiff smile : "What you said... makes a lot of sense."
"That's right. I have always understood a lot of truths. If you encounter emotional troubles in the future, you can ask me anytime." Byron smiled and patted the young black dragon's arm without self-knowledge. When the other party responded, his eyes fell on the land that was gradually approaching in the distance. At this moment, the coastline that was originally far away has gradually entered the distance that ordinary people can clearly see, but under the bright sky and today's relative In the fairly clear background of the sky, the scene of the details of the broken coast finally fell into the eyes of many sailors on the Cold Winter.
The fragmented cliffs in the distance, the crystal-like tidal flats nearby, the energy rifts and unstable magic vortices visible to the naked eye in the mid-air of the offshore area, as well as the floating islands with obvious gravity anomalies and floating around. Stone, this is a scene that would never appear in a normal natural environment - even the eloquent bard in the tavern and Mr. Film, who has become famous in the imperial capital in the past two years, dare not adopt this setting easily .
"My God..." Byron stared dumbfounded at the approaching anomalous coast, and said to Mokrul beside him after a long time, "Although I don't want to comment on what happened to other people's hometowns, the place you live in now The place is too evil...Are you really sure that the magic vortexes and space rifts that can be seen with the naked eye will not kill you?"
"Frankly speaking... not long ago they were all deadly," Mokrul hesitated and sighed, "but now we have successfully closed or calmed down most of the too dangerous magic vortices and cracks, and will Those areas that cannot be closed temporarily are classified as dangerous areas, and there are obvious marks on the coast, and there are usually dragons patrolling and guarding them. But after all, we have limited manpower, and we cannot guarantee whether unconfirmed cracks or energy surges will suddenly appear in the wilderness, so we It is necessary to establish an adventurer management center and use a strict 'graded access' system to restrict the scope of activities of adventurers... This is all to reduce the occurrence of accidental casualties."
"Really? I thought this system was just to charge extra handling fees and management fees," Byron said casually, and then looked up at the direction of the Mary on the ice, "but we don't have to worry too much, although many Everyone thinks that adventurers and mercenaries belong to the creatures that "want money but not life", but in fact, this kind of motley crew cherishes their lives more than anyone else when conditions permit. After all, only by living for a long time can they make money for a long time Pound and Final... As long as you know the consequences of running around, I believe that most adventurers will strictly abide by the regulations of the management center."
At this point, he paused, stroked his unshaven chin and continued: "Unless they meet the kind of adventurers who don't want money or life, they will risk themselves... But how is it possible?"
Mokrul looked at Byron and suddenly laughed too: "Yes, how is that possible?"
One man and one dragon stood on the high bow deck of the Winter, looking at each other and smiling, so this cutting-edge battleship was filled with a happy air, just like the bright sunshine that Tarrond was bathing in at this moment.
At the same time, a large group of people gathered on the deck of the Ice Mary. The adventurers who had been bored in the cabin for too many days became excited under the stimulation of the two elements of the New World and dragons. Gathered on the deck, discussing the floating islands and the energy turbulence in mid-air while looking at the mainland in the distance, these "warriors" who always like to brag about themselves as if they can save the world are seeing those The anti-gravity boulders that are bigger than the castle and the unstable cracks that are bursting with lightning have unanimously shown reason and calmness that is worthy of boasting. Their views are very synchronized:
As long as you can have a grain of peanuts while drinking, you must never get close to those stones and arcs in a fever-there are endless treasures in this unknown land, but the life after drinking may not be enough.
Mordir, who had completely recovered from the previous phantom, was also mixed in the crowd. He tried his best (mainly relying on the appearance of an old man and his agility than a thief) to squeeze to the front At this moment, he is looking at those bizarre scenes on the coast with his eyes shining. Those supernatural phenomena that are rarely seen in Loren Continent made the old mage very happy——
"Miss Laura, have you seen those energy turbulence and space gaps?" He excitedly said to the young hunter who squeezed forward with him, "I plan to have a chance to study how they are formed... "
The huntress' eyes widened in an instant, and she turned her head to look at the "Mr. Adventurer" who said something astonishing again, with a look of horror on her face.
...
The ocean-going fleet from the continent of Loren finally completed their extraordinary first voyage. As the brilliance of the giant sun gradually began to tilt towards the coast, these mechanical behemoths made of steel also completed their last voyage after entering the port area. Slowing down, with the joint efforts of the underwater Naga technicians, the siren navigator who manipulated the waves, and the ship mechanics, a total of nine giant ships finally landed on the temporary pier outside Binhai County without incident.
This seaport is one of the biggest construction achievements of the dragons in Binhai County in recent times-in the case of a severe shortage of labor, Calador dispatched almost one-third of the construction force of the entire town to complete this huge lack of experience, lack of technical guidance, and lack of engineering equipment, the dragons almost entirely relied on their tyrannical physical strength and fangs and claws to prepare docks that meet the docking conditions for those warships and cargo ships. It is worthwhile for them to work overtime during this time.
When the first large cargo ship "Grey Mountain Knight" docked smoothly and opened the cover of its No. 1 water-proof storage amid the cheers of the crew and the giant dragon on the shore, mountains of dehydrated grains were reflected in Calado In Er's eyes.
That is a "large amount" of food for a giant dragon.
On a high ground near the harbor, Melita Purnia and Noretta stood side by side, looking at the bustling scene on the pier. After a while, Melita murmured softly: "Cecil's Rice is a good thing..."
"Although I don't know why you are so fond of Cecil's rice, I still have to say something," Noretta shook her head aside, "There are indeed a lot of things brought by these ships, but in fact, if It is still not enough to alleviate the current food shortage in Agondor... It may only be relieved for a while, but it is certainly not enough for us to support the greenhouse farms on several nearby islands to obtain harvests. After all... the consumption of the dragon body The food is not a small amount, and now except for a few severely disabled dragons, most dragons are doing high-intensity physical labor in the form of their bodies.
"Furthermore... now even Speaker Andal is not sure whether the farms we have opened up on the nearby islands will have enough harvest. After all, the life dome based on dragon language runes has been a technology for too many years, everyone. Some young dragons don't even have much experience in tending crops."
"Of course, but these ships are the first batch, and the materials prepared by various countries will continue to gather in Beigang, and the number will be more than the first batch," Melita said, "The main significance of this fleet is to verify Whether this route is feasible is to verify whether the existing magical mechanical ships are sufficient to undertake the task of sending a large amount of supplies to Tarrond... As long as they can reach the port of Binhai County safely, this task will be considered a success."
"That's true..." Noretta nodded thoughtfully, and then couldn't help but sigh, "Dozens of countries have given their all to help... It's not easy to repay this kind of favor."
"Survival is the first priority, and the rest of the things can be considered slowly after ensuring survival," Melita smiled lightly, and said softly, "Okay, we have seen the dragonborn and human fleets arrive at the Tower Errond Continent, next... it's time for the two of us to set off for the human kingdom."
