Chapter 81 Help and Deterrence

"do not move."

"Holy crap, this super weapon can't be man-made, right?" I was a little worried when I saw the staff, because generally speaking, magical weapons can be operated by ordinary people without magic. However, there is a mage here, so the lightning you just saw may not be fired by some kind of weapon, but may be caused by the mage himself, and it just passes through the dragon head on the bow of the ship. . If that's the case, then our work has been in vain.

"I told you not to move." The owner of the staff was obviously a little angry when he saw that I was still talking. He put a little more force on the staff and pushed me back. Of course, the opponent is a mage, and I am the leader of the tank team. Not only is it extremely strong, but it can also summon a tank team to appear when necessary. Therefore, normally the other party will never be able to push me away. Of course, it was impossible for me to compete with the opponent at this time, so when the opponent pushed forward, I consciously took a step back to avoid irritating the opponent and just gave me a shot, knowing that it was fixed on my chest. The energy in that magic gem is still quite large.

"Hey, hey, hey, what's going on?" Christina and Rose, who were following me, saw me retreating from the door. At this time, they also noticed the mage over there. .

Judging from the normal situation at this time, what should happen is that the guy over there discovers that there is a large group of people here, and then he will start to threaten me as a hostage, and then he will be subdued by us. The process is roughly like this. but. In fact, the situation is slightly different from what we expected. After seeing Christina and the others, the other party actually did something that I had never encountered before.

I saw that the mage actually scanned the faces of each of Rose and the others, and then locked his eyes on Christina. Then he smiled at Christina with a standard playboy smile and said: "Hello, beautiful Madam. I wonder if you can meet me? I am Hilton Von Sphinx, the garrison mage of the First Fleet of the Holy Spirit Empire. You can call me Baron Hilton or Master Hilton."

"Before we get to know each other, could you please take away the staff that is on our president's chest?" Christina said in a neither humble nor condescending manner.

Hilton was obviously stunned, and then he smiled and took the stick away. "I am willing to obey, beautiful lady. I would like to ask, are you also a mage?"

Christina nodded and said: "Yes, I am a mage. Can you tell me if there is a very powerful magic weapon in the back room? I saw it firing outside."

"Oh, that is the masterpiece of our president." After Hilton finished speaking, he looked at me again, then looked me up and down and frowned and asked: "Sorry, beautiful Miss Mage. I seem to have heard this person called President. But he is obviously a warrior? Could it be that the president of your Mage Guild likes to wear armor? This is really a strange hobby!"

"Did anyone rule that mages can't wear armor?" I snapped my fingers, and Everett appeared beside me instantly. "Go in and see what that is."

Everett nodded and was about to walk in, while Hilton looked at Everett stupidly. It wasn't until he walked in that he turned to look at me and asked in surprise: "Is he really a mage? Summoning system? Mechanical system? Or soul system? It can’t be space system, right?”

"I am a summoner. Is there any problem?"

"That's it. No wonder you're wearing armor." Hilton said: "As a summoner, you are the weakest link. Wearing armor to increase your defense ability is also a good idea, but sometimes this method may not be useful. That’s it.”

Just as this guy was talking, Everett had already come out. Then he said to me: "There is a magic weapon inside. It is definitely a magic weapon, but the specific working principle is not clear. I only know that it is some kind of energy conversion using energy-gathering magic arrays and magic crystals."

"Is this your summon?" Hilton looked at Everett and asked, "Where did you find this kind of thing? It looks like a magic machine, but it seems... it seems to be more advanced. And I feel it. With the huge energy it carries, this must be a very powerful summoning object.”

"This is the fire elf king Everett. He is a constructed creature, not a simple machine. Of course, it does look similar." After I finished speaking, I asked Everett: "Can it be disassembled? "

Everett thought for a while and said, "It should be possible. After all, the connecting structures are fixed on wood."

"Hey...what you are discussing is our stuff, okay?" Hilton finally found out that we were trying to grab this weapon, so he stood at the door and pointed his staff at Everett to prevent him from entering. .

"I'd get out of the way if I were you," Christina said.

Hilton stared at Everett and said to Christina: "Beautiful lady, this thing is preparing to invade the property of our fleet. These things belong to your Majesty. If you plan to rob them, I will definitely fight with you." . I believe this is not the result you want to see, so I suggest you don’t force me. I don’t want to start a war with you.”

"Sorry, we have to get that thing." Christina said and nodded towards me, and Everett immediately started walking over there.

Seeing that Everett was still walking, Hilton finally took action. He suddenly sent his staff forward, and a dazzling white arc immediately shot out from the gem at the tip of his staff, and then curved and connected to Everett's body.

The moment he was hit, Everett immediately leaned back, and then his body was blown away with a snap like an ordinary person being hit by high-voltage electricity. Fortunately, I dodge quickly, otherwise I would also suffer disaster this time.

Looking at Everett flying out. I turned to look at Hilton angrily, and said, "It seems like you are going to resist."

"It's you who are invading my battleship. I am forced to do so."

"Okay, in that case, we can only act like real intruders." I said and walked forward, and Hilton immediately pointed his staff at me and wanted to release lightning again, but , he had just laid the stick flat when he saw a small white thing appearing above my outstretched palm, and then the little thing disappeared in the next second, but there was a sudden pain on his wrist. The staff in his hand also fell to the ground.

Hilton found out that he had lost his staff and immediately bent down to pick it up. But he stopped just as he squatted down halfway, because a sword blade had already touched his chin. As long as he pressed down hard, he would cut his own neck. So he could only stop there.

"Wise choice." Seeing Hilton stopped moving. I turned directly back to Everit and asked, "Everit. How are you?"

Under Hilton's surprised gaze, Everett stood up from the pile of debris he had just fallen into, and then walked back to us. "I don't know why, but my energy has actually increased a lot. It feels pretty good."

Hilton was completely dumbfounded now. The attack magic on his staff is the most powerful lightning magic. Unexpectedly, Everett was not killed, but instead charged up. This situation was completely beyond Hilton's knowledge. In his imagination, the person hit by this lightning would lose half of his life even if he did not die. This should not be the case at all.

I ignored Hilton, who had lost the ability to think, and asked Zhenhong to come over and look at him, and then I entered the cabin over there with Everett. There wasn't much space in the Hilton guard's cabin. Something that looked a bit like a ship's engine was placed in the front of the room, and there was a specially made fixing frame to fix it there. In addition, there are several black pipes on this device connected to the dragon's mouth in front, and there is a smaller structure over there, and the pipes are connected to this device. It seems that the one over there is the launcher, and the thing here that looks like a marine diesel engine is probably the main body of the weapon, which is the energy conversion and compression device.

In fact, although I don't know how this device works, the design ideas of energy weapons are basically the same. First, an energy conversion and absorption device is needed to collect the naturally free energy or the energy stored in the magic crystal. Next, a compression device is needed, because the energy concentration in natural energy or magic crystal cannot be too high. After all, high energy is unstable. The third part is to convert the compressed energy into some kind of magic, wave or other things, and then launch it out, which forms a magic weapon system. Of course, this process also requires the assistance of a series of mechanisms such as transmission and stabilization, but the general working principle is like this.

The thing in front of us is such a device. Although we don't know the specific working principle, we can guess it based on our team's understanding of magic weapons and the structure of this thing. This relatively large diesel engine has the same energy conversion, absorption, pressurization, and storage equipment. Of course, the controller may also be on this thing. The smaller one in front is probably a simple launch stabilizer or something like that.

"Do you understand?" Jin Coin asked after coming in.

I nodded and said: "I can probably guess some, but the specific application still needs to be dismantled and studied by professionals." As I said this, I directly pointed to a few key positions and said to Everett: "Help me hold on and I'll cut this thing off."

"That thing can't be moved." We heard a cry while we were dismantling it. When we looked back, we found that Baron Hilton. Of course, he was now being held by Zhenhong's neck like a chicken.

"We all said it was a robbery, but you're still talking nonsense. Do you want to die?" Jin Coin turned around and threatened.

Baron Hilton said with a sad face: "It's not that I want to die, but that I don't want to die. Even if you want to rob, can you wait until I finish telling you to do it?"

"What on earth are you going to say?" Zhen Hong impatiently stood up and shook him a few times and said, "Let's talk first, no matter what you say, we are going to dismantle this thing and take it away."

Hilton nodded and said: "Whether you want to dismantle it or not is your business, but please don't drag me to be buried with you! I'm an imperial noble. According to regulations, after being captured, you don't need to continue fighting for the country, so I won't stop you from doing anything now." Your obligations. However, there is a special magic circle connected to the bottom of this generating device. If the machine is moved or separated from the magic circle, it will be completely disconnected, and then the device will self-destruct."

"Self-destruction? How powerful is it?"

"That depends on the remaining energy reserve. But with the current capacity, it will definitely not be a problem to blow up the entire ship. So..."

The explosive power to blow up a wooden-hulled warship does not actually require much power, but although we are not worried about what will happen if we are blown up by this thing, the problem is if this thing explodes. Our goal will be completely unachievable. In this case, of course we can't let this thing explode.

"Tell me. How can this thing not explode?"

"Actually, the method is very simple." Hilton paused before saying: "According to the previous war agreement, you can ask for ransom after capturing the enemy nobles. However, although I am your prisoner, what can you do if you need me? You need to use the ransom to offset part of the reward. If it is not enough, you need to add more. And I have no right to refuse. So, as long as you are willing to offset part of the ransom, I can tell you how to do it."

We didn't even think about ransom. Although we know that there were such rules in ancient Europe, we don't want to make money from this NPC. Now the other party actually asks us to deduct part of the ransom, but of course we don't care. "Okay then. How much do you want to deduct?"

"I am an Imperial Baron, and the ransom is 100,000 gold coins. At the same time, I am also an assassin, so I need to add an additional 1.5 million, for a total of 1.6 million gold coins. If I tell you how to safely dismantle this device , you need to let me offset 600,000 gold coins."

"No problem." We didn't care anyway, so of course we agreed very readily.

As soon as the other party heard that we actually agreed, he immediately said: "Okay, the deal is done. Now let me tell you the solution. This design is actually very simple. The magic circle is carved on the wooden board of the hull that is in contact with the equipment, so as long as these positions are The wooden board can be removed from the equipment without any movement. However, you need to be careful not to allow any displacement between the wooden board and the equipment during the process. As for how to disassemble it after returning, I believe you can definitely figure it out if you have enough time. Many ways."

"How many gold coins do I need to buy the dismantling method from you?" I asked directly.

"This is simple, just one hundred thousand."

"make a deal."

"It's really rich." Baron Hilton said: "Then, it's okay to tell you. The easiest way to dismantle this device is to take out all the magic crystals in the energy tank, and then remove the magic crystal in the center of the core converter. If you take that gem away, the entire device will lose power and it will explode even if it wants to."

"It's really simple."

Although 100,000 gold coins only bought such a simple answer, I think this is not a loss, after all, it saves us a lot of time. Moreover, the money is actually fictitious. It is said to be a ransom, but I don't think the system will let us take so much money for nothing, so there must be some interfering factors that prevent us from taking the money. Forget it if it's on the main map. We can take the risk and give it a try, but this is a mission space and I don't want to make any mistakes. Don't forget that when we first came in, we chose ten times the punishment. If this was not the case, we would all be in bad luck. Therefore, I had no intention of asking for any extraneous ransom, so the simplest way was to use the ransom as waste and spend it directly. Although nominally we have lost the ransom of 700,000 gold coins, in fact we have obtained the safe disassembly method of this device for free without doing anything.

After telling us about this disassembly method, Hilton also gave us a piece of news for free, that is, the tubes between the small component on the front of the device and the main unit on the back cannot be dismantled casually, as they are filled with a gas. This gas is highly corrosive and would harm us all if it were released. And this gas is very precious. If we leak it, it will not be so easy to make this device work.

"I have to say, Baron Hilton. You are really a model prisoner." With Hilton's help, we successfully dismantled the secret weapon. After putting this whole thing into my Phoenix Dragon space, we plan to take this Baron Hilton to the fleet on the opposite side.

The reason why we want to bring Hilton is because the two countries are in a state of hostility. We don't want Hilton's ransom, but it doesn't prevent us from using this ransom to win people's hearts, right? Since both countries have signed an agreement, they must be familiar with this kind of exchange work, so even if we don't ask for a ransom, we can leave Hilton to the other party.

When we entered this room, the crew were fighting sea monsters, but when we came out, the situation here changed a little. Not that the battle is over. But there are more people. There weren't many people here when we came up. But when we came out, there was a large group of people confronting nearly ten of those sea beasts. It was obvious that both sides had received reinforcements.

Most of those sailors used cold weapons, and some of them had front-loaded flintlock guns, but the number was very small. And this gun is obviously very backward. Because the barrel in front is very thick. It feels like a bell mouth. This is clearly one of the characteristics of early gunpowder weapons. However, although the sea beast on the opposite side has good combat power, its defense power is unfortunately too low, so it does not dare to act rashly when faced with this kind of weapon.

The sailors over there immediately regarded us as enemies when they saw us coming out with Hilton. Because the attitude of our mage who is catching them at this time is already very obvious.

The other party responded quickly. After seeing us and Hilton coming out, those people immediately pointed their weapons at us, and there was also a guy who shouted that he wanted to drive all the sea beasts to our side and let us fight the sea beasts.

Although the other party's ideas are relatively good, it is a pity that they treat us as ordinary people. But in fact, we are not ordinary people at all, and this situation makes no sense to us.

In the surprised eyes of those people, we actually walked directly towards the sea beasts without waiting for them to drive them away.

As soon as they discovered that we were approaching, the sea beasts immediately looked at us warily, and kept baring their teeth at us and letting out intimidating roars, which basically meant: "Don't come here, don't come here."

Although the screams of those sea beasts were quite scary, we didn't care about it and still walked forward on our own. The sea beasts screamed even more happily after seeing that we didn't stop. However, as we gradually approached the dangerous distance, the sea beasts did not rush directly towards us, but suddenly made a whining sound, and like injured dogs, they separated to both sides with their tails between their legs. , and then made a way for us.

The eyes of the crew members were about to pop out when they saw this scene. They had seen the combat capabilities of these sea beasts before, but they did not expect that these things actually looked like scared dogs in front of us. They did not show any ferocious aura, but instead shrank to the side with their tails between their legs.

"Their sense of danger is much stronger than yours." Hilton, who was in Zhenhong's hands, was obviously very surprised as to why these tough monsters looked like this after seeing us, but Zhenhong's words quickly made him reacted.

When he was subdued by Zhenhong just now, he was not actually captured after a life-and-death struggle, but was captured with almost no resistance. Zhenhong even made him obedient. Before catching him, she deliberately waited for him and let him attack several times before catching him. In this case, Hilton can be said to have understood the gap between himself and Zhenhong, and Zhenhong's words just now further awakened him. The intuition of beasts is usually sharper than that of humans, because in nature, if you misjudge the opponent's strength, you will die. Therefore, the intuition of the beasts has evolved through the survival of the fittest through generations of natural selection. Their intuition is so sharp that they almost never make mistakes. After all, making a mistake means death, and the price is too serious.

In this case, the beasts will be able to avoid those creatures that are too powerful. The situation just now is the simplest reaction, which shows that those sea beasts have realized that we people are extremely dangerous, even so dangerous that they can't even think of resisting.

After understanding this, Hilton understood our horror even more, and he suddenly looked towards me. Based on the previous situation, it can be easily determined that I am the leader of this group of people, and Christina also called me president before. So Hilton knows I'm the leader here. So, since even my true red is so powerful, how strong will I be? What about the rest?

Of course, the leader may not necessarily be the best at fighting. National leaders don’t need to be better at fighting than the country’s soldiers, but I appeared directly on the battlefield. This shows that even if I am a higher-ranking person than Zhenhong and the others, I am still a combatant, and a high-ranking person who can go to the battlefield must have an exaggerated combat power. Otherwise, I would definitely stay in the back and not come out and wander around. After understanding this, Hilton became more at ease. He was very sure that our strength was absolutely terrifying and resistance would not bring any good results. It's better to feel at ease and be a prisoner. Anyway, it can be redeemed later. Besides, he has already reduced a lot of ransom money himself, and I believe Congress will pay for it. After all, magicians are high-level talents, not nobles who only know how to engage in adultery. The king will not give up on him.

Just when Hilton was ready to be taken prisoner. The crew members on the opposite side were restless. They obviously misunderstood the chill after seeing all the sea beasts move aside. They were surprised when they saw the sea monster give way to the stone before. But then they used these sea beasts to avoid us because we were the ones who trained these sea beasts. That's why these guys avoid us. After all, when they thought about it, all they needed to train these beasts was cages and whips. So it stands to reason that these sea beasts are afraid of us.

Unfortunately, they got the situation wrong because they didn't know that we actually had nothing to do with either party. However, because they misunderstood the situation, these people simply regarded us as animal trainers and did not realize how strong we were. As a result, they actually rushed up after the sea beasts separated, intending to kill us and rescue Hilton. baron.

"Are these guys crazy?" Seeing those guys charging up with big blades and muskets, Zhenhong asked in surprise.

Christina said calmly: "Maybe I got the situation wrong!"

Zhenhong thought about it and threw Hilton next to me and said: "Look after him for me first, and I'll deal with those people."

Although Zhenhong was considered a beauty, the sailors opposite her didn't show any pity for her. When they saw Zhenhong taking the initiative to force them to come over, several of the musketeers immediately pulled the trigger on Zhenhong. However, Zhenhong is not even afraid of the ordinary bullets of the Gunslinger. It's a damn thing that the iron sand fired from this shabby weapon can be useful. Just covering her face with her arms, Zhen Hong continued to walk forward without slowing down. The opponent's muskets fired one after another, but in the end they had no effect on Zhenhong's Zhenwei suit.

Completely ignoring the opponent's attack, Zhenhong had already strode to the front of the opponent's crowd. At this time, the two sides were in formal contact, and the musketeers did not dare to shoot, because the shape of these weapons determined that they and the word "accurate" were Completely irrelevant. Speaking of which, these weapons are more like shotguns. Their main characteristic is that they spray a large area, so there is absolutely no way to fire when the enemy and ourselves are mixed together.

In fact, it makes no sense if they can't fire. Anyway, even if they shoot against Zhenhong's body, this weapon will not produce any lethality. Compared with these antique weapons, the attributes of the real weapon suit are really too strong.

Finally walking in front of the sailors, Zhenhong let go of the arm that was covering his face, then raised his hand to deliver an uppercut. Only two bangs and booms were heard, and the guy was hit directly in the chin by Zhenhong. Then, just like stepping on a catapult, the whole person flew up, and then knocked a big hole in the deck above his head. , flew out directly.

When it was over, before anyone around him could react, Zhenhong had already waved his arm and punched the second person in the face again. This time it was almost the same as before. The man was like a fired cannonball, knocking down a large area of ​​the crowd behind him, then flew straight across half of the cabin, then loaded a cannon and crashed through it with the cannon. The side plank near the gun window flew to the outside.

Twice in a row, the people around finally realized that they were afraid. Unfortunately, Zhenhong walked into the crowd as if she didn't see their expressions at all, punching and kicking the people around them everywhere. Flying around. Moreover, these people who were blown away were like cannonballs. Everyone flew away when they hit them, and they were smashed when they hit things. As for themselves... everyone flew away. Who knows what the result will be? But one thing is certain, that is, these people must be dead.

Just when Zhenhong was punching those crew members. Outside the battleship, several ships from the opposing fleet were approaching, but they did not fire. Not because their warships were incapable of firing, but because their leader told them not to attack the ship.

The leader of this fleet is a very smart man, because he saw the scene when we entered the ship. Although we don’t know what we were doing there, those crew members once attacked us when we were on the deck, which shows that we are not on the same side as the other party. Precisely because he was sure that we were not from the other side, the captain here decided not to let his warship attack the ship here, just for fear of accidentally injuring us. The fact that we were able to fly before shows that we are very strong beings. If accidentally injured. He doubted that the remaining people would seek revenge on them, and when the time came he was worried about whether his fleet could withstand it.

It is precisely because of the wise choice of the fleet commander that they did not fall out with us directly, otherwise they would even plan to help them. We would definitely not be happy if we were bombarded with artillery shells for no apparent reason. Of course. Most likely we will not change our cooperation plans. Zhishi may not really treat them sincerely.

At this time, these warships were ordered not to attack the ship, so they were able to get around it on both sides, however. Just when they were about to go around, they discovered that there was something wrong with the ship. First, a person flew out from below the deck, then flew directly over the height of the mast and continued to rise as high as two masts before starting to fall. Even if he fell into the water from this height, he would definitely be killed.

Before the trapeze here started to fall, there was a sudden explosion in the ship and a big hole was opened. Then a cannon and a man were seen flying out, and the cannon fell directly into the water after it came out. , and the man flew all the way for more than ten meters before crashing into the water with a bang.

These two people seemed to be responsible for the beginning. After they flew out, the ship began to fly out left and right like fireworks, but this time all the people flying out were people instead of fireworks.

"What did they do!" The fleet commander looked at the enemy's fierce flagship flying out there, and asked in surprise what was going on, but the problem was that the sailors didn't actually know any more than the commander. .

Just when they were still wondering what happened to the opponent's flagship, another person suddenly flew out from the side of the ship. The difference this time was that the person didn't come out by knocking off the ship's plank, but came directly from the previous one. It flew out of a big hole. Because this guy didn't hit the side of the ship, he was very fast and the trajectory was flat. After flying out of the side of the ship, he flew for more than fifty meters before falling into the water. As a result, he bounced up again after hitting the water, and then he seemed to be playing. The water float kept bouncing on the water several times before finally sinking into the sea.

Gudong. Hilton swallowed. He also saw the situation of the unlucky guy just now through the hole in the ship's board. Thinking about that poor guy, he felt a tingling sensation in his spine. The destructive power of Zhenhong was simply too scary. Not only did she smash the crew members away, but she also used their bodies as cannonballs to smash everything in the ship to pieces. Moreover, it felt like the entire layer was about to collapse, and it seemed that it would collapse at any time. A broken look.

"Okay, it's almost done, let's go quickly." Looking at the tattered hull, I said hello directly, then turned around and jumped out from the edge of the deck.

Rose jumped out right behind me, and then spread her own wings. I carried her before because there was no burden on me, but now it is inconvenient for me to carry her and fly with her.

Seeing us jumping out one after another, Zhenhong jumped out too. I don’t know if it was because the crew members gathered by the True Red General were smashed away, but the sea beasts that rushed to the ship before actually jumped into the sea after we left, and they all left the ship in just a few seconds. .

The fleet commander on the opposite side saw a few of us coming out of the ship and was about to try to get someone to contact us. Unexpectedly, Christina, who was flying behind, was flying well and suddenly turned towards the battleship and pushed with both hands. The purple light ball flew out directly, and then hit the battleship straight away. It had almost the same effect as the previous battleship bullying others. After this beam of light hit the ship, there was a loud bang and the entire ship turned into pieces of wood flying in the sky.

"Oh my God, did they steal each other's secret weapon?" The staff officer next to the commander asked in surprise as he looked at the exploding battleship on the opposite side.

The fleet commander shook his head and said: "No. The colors of the launched objects are different, and the magic power fluctuations are also different. They should not be the same thing. At least they are not directly snatching the other party's secret weapons."

"Does that mean the other party already knows this?" the staff officer asked.

The commander nodded and gave the order not to attack those of us. In fact, as soon as his order was issued, we had already turned around and headed towards them.

"Oh my God! They are coming!" The staff officers were startled when they saw us flying over, because they had seen what Christina had done to the battleship before. As for the previous situation where people were constantly flying out of the battleship, although they couldn't see what was going on due to the obstruction of the ship's planks, they at least knew that it must be us. Maybe it was all the staff, maybe it was done by one person, but there must be strong people besides Christina on our side. This is unmistakable.

"Don't panic. The other party probably didn't come with any malicious intentions." The fleet commander is quite smart. When he saw Hilton on my side, he knew that we were not here to attack. Besides, with the power of Christina's attack just now, we really have to deal with these battleships. There is no need to get close.

Under the nervous gaze of those crew members. We flew to the deck of the battleship smoothly. And landed smoothly. The moment we landed, a large group of people surrounded us, but because we had been warned in advance, no one raised weapons against us. But everyone was holding weapons and seemed to be ready to fight if things went wrong. Although many of them have seen the scene where Christina destroyed the battleship just now, mages are generally recognized to be very slow. If the distance is close enough, any low-level warrior can kill the high-level mage.

Just after these people surrounded us, a voice suddenly shouted: "The captain is here."

Following this shout, the crew members immediately made way for them, and then we saw three people walking in from outside the crowd.

One of the three men was a burly man, who looked to be in his forties, with a very good figure, a standard inverted triangle structure, muscular muscles, and a face that made people think he was a particularly reliable type. This man's temperament is most suitable for the identity of captain, but the position of the three people on the scene clearly shows that this big man is not the captain, because he is side by side with another person, and there is still someone standing in front of them. One, this should be their real leader.

"It's actually a woman!"

The person in front of me, who was the most important person no matter where she stood, was actually a woman. No, she may not even be considered a woman, she should be called a girl. This girl looks about fifteen or sixteen years old. Wearing a suit of armor, she looks very imposing, but her face is too green, which affects the overall effect. After all, majestic armor is more suitable for a cooler woman or man to wear. It really doesn’t look like this innocent little girl wearing armor.

Of course, if this girl can command this battleship, she must be exceptional. Therefore, although we are surprised, we really have no intention of trying to make her smaller. On the contrary, we became more serious.

"I know you are not from the Holy Spirit Empire, but who are you? And what are you going to do when you come to our battleship?"

"First of all, I'm sure your guess is correct. We are not from each other. As for where we are from specifically... It's not that we don't want to tell you, but because I can't tell you."

"Restricted by a curse?" the other party asked.

"No, no, no, it is a more special situation. Anyway, we have no way to tell you, and even if we tell you, it is useless information to you, because you have never heard of that place, so It's no use knowing the name. As for the reason why we came here... Let's just pretend that we met by chance. However, we like to help the weak party, and you were embarrassed by the other party's secret weapon before, so we plan to help You. Of course, in exchange, you need to take us to land after the battle."

"Deal." The other party agreed readily, and then suddenly looked at Hilton who was still in my hand. "Excuse me, is this...?"

"Oh, this is Baron Hilton. He was responsible for operating the secret weapon that attacked you before."

"Is this guy a mage?" the fleet commander asked in surprise.

"Master." Hilton corrected him very seriously. He cannot tolerate others inexplicably demoting him to an ordinary mage.

"Okay, let's assume this guy is a noble, but what did you bring him here for? Even if you want a ransom, you should ask the other party for it, right?"

"It's just a small gift." I explained: "Because I asked him to help me a little bit, I deducted a ransom of 700,000 crystal coins. Now this guy still has a ransom of 10,000 yuan that he has not paid. You can use it later. He went to the other party and asked for money."
