Chapter 2560 Audrey's Letter
The two-masted sailing ship "Hellinghorn" from Galti Island is a magical magical ship that can travel between the material world and the "spiritual world" by itself, coming and going without a trace, like a ghost.
With this unique skill, the Green father and daughter, from mid-August to the end of August, in just half a month, have driven the "Herlinghorn" three times to plunder the military supplies transport ship that is stationed in Fizhen and transported to the New World. The Continental Army in Freeport delivered a large amount of supplies that were in short supply.
Those Fizen warships escorting the transport ship couldn't stop this elusive "ghost ship" at all. They could only watch the "Herlinghorn" suddenly descending near their own fleet with thick fog, and ran away after grabbing it , accompanied by a cloud of mist dissipating in their field of vision.
All kinds of bizarre rumors about the "Herlinghorn" made the naval commander stationed in the New World, General William Howe, very annoyed. He specially wrote to China for help, asking the Navy Headquarters to send a warship to the New World to be responsible for the rampant hunting activities. "Ghost Ship".
This warship with a special mission is the new type of guided destroyer "Hunter" developed and designed by Feizhen Navy.
In the New World, not many people have heard of this destroyer, but in the mainland of Feizhen, those sea heroes who have no business at all will gasp in fright when they hear the name "Hunter"!
On the evening of September 1, 1626, an iron-clad steam destroyer that looked inadvertently sailed into Midgard Harbor.
The captain, Lieutenant Colonel Melville, boarded the "Eagle" with five companions, visited Admiral Howe, the commander of the navy, and then returned to his own ship. He turned around and left the port with 232 Fibonacci sailors, and disappeared into the south in the afterglow of the setting sun. end of the horizon.
At this time, the "Herlinghorn", which was searching for prey in the southern waters of Asa Bay, did not know that she had also become a prey in the eyes of others and was about to encounter big trouble.
...
On the afternoon of September 3, surface time, Joan received a letter from the surface world for the first time since he lived in seclusion in Udinos.
This "short message technique" was sent by Audrey from Bethlehem, the capital of the Kingdom of Canaan.
Her Royal Highness complained in the letter that her worried brother ran away from home again!
Holden is nineteen years old anyway, and he is a little more mature than before. Before leaving, he still remembers to leave a letter to his family stating his ambition, claiming that he will return to the New World and join the Continental Army led by General Vasa , to contribute to the independent revolution.
Holden, the illegitimate son, has never had a sense of presence in the Canaan royal family.
His stepmother, Queen Juno, disliked him in every possible way, and his own father, King Joshua, also showed little care for this mischievous young son. Knowing that Holden had gone to the New World again, he routinely confessed to the relevant departments to keep an eye on his whereabouts and try his best to help him. Get Holden back.
The only people in the royal family who really care about Holden are his elder brother Gloria and older sister Audrey.
Prince Colofa assisted his father in handling state affairs. He was so busy with official duties that he couldn't spare the energy to find his younger brother who had run away from home. The responsibility to find Holden could only fall on Audrey, the older sister.
As soon as Audrey found out that her brother was missing, Audrey used the "detection technique" to track him down, but as expected, the detection failed—Holden was obviously well prepared and would not let her find it so easily.
Audrey sent a letter to George Vassar of the Garrison Freeport to find out if her younger brother was under his account, but the news she received was that no one had seen Holden.
In the letter, General Vasa advised her not to worry. If Holden really came to join the army in the future, he would write back and inform her as soon as possible.
General Vasa's reply made Audrey feel more and more uneasy. Now she wonders if the letter left by her younger brother before he ran away from home is just a sham, and that going to the New World to join the army is just a cover, but in fact there are other plans.
In order to find out the whereabouts of her younger brother, Audrey sent letters to all the friends Holden might go to, including Joan of course.
Although he has left the human society, Joan couldn't let go of his concern for his friend, and hurriedly cast a spell to track Holden's whereabouts.
It turned out that, as Audrey said, the "Scrying Technique" was blocked by some kind of protective and detection magic barrier, no wonder she couldn't find Holden.
After thinking for a while, Qiao An switched to the 8th ring spell "Position Perception" to find Holden's current location.
The magic energy level of "Perception Position" is much higher than that of Level 4 "Scrying". Below Legendary, except for "Mind Barrier", there is no other spell or supernatural ability that can block "Perception Position".
The casting of the spell went smoothly this time. Joan successfully locked Holden's location, compared the coordinates on the map, and found that this guy was actually in the middle of the east coast of the New World, and seemed to be on a ship heading to Freeport.
Out of curiosity, Joan activated the "remote viewing mirror" and used the sea area where the ship was located instead of Holden himself as the detection target, so that he could avoid the obstruction of anti-detection spells and see his situation clearly from a high-altitude perspective.
That's right, the Mr. Poet who ran away from home is indeed on a ship, and what's more, this ship is also very familiar to Joan, which is the ghost ship "Herlinghorn" on Galti Island!
Joan first wrote back a letter to Audrey, informing her of her brother's whereabouts, and then turned her gaze back to the mirror to check the situation on board.
The "Herlinghorn" has obviously been refitted, and a cannon has been added to the bow and stern. In addition to the ghost sailors under Captain Green, there are many human sailors busy on the deck.
Joan also saw several familiar faces on the deck. For example, the woman in a black swallowtail dress who was talking to Captain Green was "Ms. Seagull" Kate.
A parrot with golden and red feathers was standing on the yard of the main mast, wearing a sailor cap on its head, and was yelling at a little golden monkey in human language. It wasn't Hailar's beloved parrot Dolly.
Joan casually used an "advanced inner vision" to investigate Dolly, and found that the parrot, which was enlightened by his spell, had made great progress in the past two years, and had been promoted to a level 4 warlock.
The little golden-haired monkey, reprimanded by the parrot Dolly as a "stupid monkey", is only about a foot tall, squatting on the wooden barrel with an aggrieved face, sometimes raising its paws, and helping the green pointed hat on its head, as if I'm afraid that this beloved little hat will be blown away by the sea breeze.
Joan felt familiar at the first sight of the golden-haired little monkey. His demeanor and behavior were very similar to the mythical giant ape "King Kong" on Galti Island. However, the size of this little guy was too big compared to King Kong. Didn't connect it to the titan ape.
The little hat on the little monkey's head caught Joan's attention due to the fluctuations in magic power. The more he looked at it, the more familiar it became. Suddenly, he recalled that it was the "shrinking hat" of the Lilliputians!
