Act 120 Shadow of the Fleet (Part 2)

(I feel stuck, so I’d better try my best to write a chapter. I’d better ask for monthly tickets for Xiao Hei’s “Disaster Is Coming”.)

The shadow swept over the plain, as if a huge scythe swept across the meadow, causing waves of grass to fly, and the cavemen traveling in the grass screamed and fled. A dragon beast was passing by from low altitude, followed by a second one, and a third one, rolling in one after another. Its huge wingspan covered the sky and the sun, and the dragons covered the sky. The strong wind raised her long black hair and swept it across her face. Modesty raised her head and looked at this scene with amusement. From very close to very far in her field of vision, the vast horizon seemed to form a flat horizon. At the far end of this arc, beyond sight, the tops of human walls and towers are shining.

That's where Loon Port is——

…

At this moment, the warning bells were clanging loudly in Loen Port. One after another, fast horses carried the port guard's messengers back and forth through the streets and alleys. The sound of horse hooves fell on the stone slabs like a storm. It seems to fall into the hearts of panicked people. The dock area is in a gloomy mood. Many port officials and the fleeing Cruz nobles brought by Brando are gathered here. From time to time, they look at the bay with gloomy expressions - as if even seeing a piece of wood floating on the sea can make them happy. They felt a little more at ease, but unfortunately, the water between the dozens of piers and piers stretching straight into the bay was clean and empty, not even a single extra wave.

The cavemen are gathering on the plains.

The gryphon knights who flew back from the plains also detected signs of the dragon beasts moving out.

It was obvious that the Jorgendigang army behind them had discovered their traces and was preparing to attack the city. Bad news comes one after another, but there seems to be no good news. Rogers and others mixed in the crowd at this moment are no better than others. Although they had some confidence in the young earl from Eruin, But as time passes bit by bit, it seems to become increasingly difficult to say how certain this confidence is.

"The smell of sulfur is getting stronger in the air," Trevor sniffed. He frowned and muttered: "The wind is blowing from the sea. We can smell the sulfur here. I'm afraid the dragon beasts are very close."

"Perhaps that adult is getting closer..." Rogers soothed in a low voice.

"Is it really fast?" Trevor looked up at the sea. Not to mention ships, not even a guard could be seen in the direction of the dock. It didn't look like a fleet would suddenly appear.

"Trevor, there is no need for that gentleman to lie to us," Nasha replied weakly while lying on the stretcher: "Even if the dragon beast herd really arrives, the city defense can still hold on for a while.

There are also Pegasus Knights in Loen Port..." She seemed to want to give her companions some confidence. But her expression was not much better. After all, if the Pegasus Knights were really useful, the ships in Loen Port would not be able to Everyone knew that she was burned to the core. In the end, she couldn't speak anymore. She stopped and asked in a low voice: "Kui, tell me..."

Rogers and Trevor also turned around and looked at this young man with black hair. Although this youngest player among the four didn't speak much, he always spoke calmly and to the point. At times like this, the other party's judgment would become unclear. More and more reliable.

Kui raised his head and replied calmly: "I was thinking about what he said before. I don't know if I heard it wrong."

"What did you hear wrong?"

"I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but now that I think about it, the berth area that the Earl asked Earl Alcorns to prepare for him seems to be a special berth..." The black-haired young man frowned in a rare way and answered. road.

"What did you say!?"

The wind direction in the wilderness seemed to have suddenly changed. Dark clouds began to gather over the sea.

More than ten minutes passed in a solemn manner, but there was still no movement on the sea. Uneasiness was spreading among the crowd, especially among the Cruz nobles, who inevitably began to whisper, although many people still harbored a little pity. Hope - the hope that Brando can perform a miracle at the last moment, but as time passes, this hope is becoming increasingly slim.

After the disappointment, voices of doubt arose - think about it and understand how it is possible to conjure a fleet with empty words. Fortunately, they believed it before.

The Cruz nobles looked a little ugly. Some even suspected that Brando and his party had secretly abandoned them and left. Fortunately, before this rumor spread, Enid and Princess Magdale came with the Eruin envoy. After refuting the rumors, the commotion was suppressed. But then another theory spread among the crowd. Although not everyone was present when Earl Alcorns and Wallas handed over, there were always some nobles who witnessed the situation at that time. Waiting for these nobles Reacting from the uneasiness, someone finally remembered like the black-haired young man that what Brando asked Viscount Wallas to prepare for them was a special berth in the port.

Floating fleet?

Everyone subconsciously looked up at the sky. The white ivory towers were neatly arranged over the port area like the teeth of a comb. However, the air space between the towers was still empty, except for a slight glow. The ring is rotating.

"Could that Lord Count really be able to conjure up a floating fleet to come here?" Noble Cruz present could not help but feel suspicious again.

"Stop dreaming, where did the Eruin people get their floating fleet?" This time, it was the port officials of Loen Port who broke everyone's illusions. Most of these people were local gentry and nobles, and they were clearly distinguished from the other fleeing nobles on the dock. They were not willing to give up the port to others at all - especially to a group of Eruin people, but they were driven out of the airport by Charles, who had the authorization of Count Alkans, and they were greatly disappointed in front of everyone. A face, so although he knew that those Eruin people were here to maintain the special berths of the airport, they deliberately looked on with a cold eye.

In fact, from the bottom of their hearts, these people don't believe that these Eruin people can conjure up a floating fleet. Besides, they have never seen Brando's ability. As Cruz people, they will never believe that a group of people can create a floating fleet. The country bumpkins will be more powerful than them - this kind of mentality was once possessed by the fleeing nobles present, but it was more or less reversed after experiencing the battle in Blackstone Town that night.

"...You can't say that. As far as I know, the Eruin royal family still has a floating fleet." A voice in the crowd retorted, not giving these local nobles any face. In fact, the fleeing nobles are not familiar with these local nobles, and they are even more noble in terms of their birth status. After all, most of these port officials are just vassals of Count Alcorns, and the other nobles present , there are still a few whose status is not inferior to that of Alcorns himself.

Hearing this rebuttal, the port official who had spoken earlier suddenly looked a little ugly. He actually didn't know that the Eruin royal family had a fleet of its own, but in the eyes of the proud navy of the Cruz Empire-Eruin's fleet was made by the wind. The navy that the elves helped build was not even as strong as the local fleet and could not be called a real fleet at all. It's just a child's toy. And as a port worker for the empire. They were more or less influenced by this thought and simply ignored this insignificant fleet.

"That's called a fleet? A bunch of ignorant landlubbers!" He cursed in his mind, but he still understood that the other party's status was higher than his own, so he didn't dare to say this out loud. He just sneered and said: "Since everyone knows that it is the fleet of the Eruin royal family, it is hard to say whether the earl can mobilize it. If I remember correctly, the earl is neither a member of the royal family nor a member of the royal family. What an extraordinary minister, he is just an envoy. To say the least, even if he can mobilize this fleet, it is different from what most people imagine. In fact, the floating battleship itself does not have the ability to teleport. The teleportation of the fleet . It relies on the wizards in the fleet and the large portals arranged in advance. The empire relying on the temple is unique in this regard, but I don’t think the Eruin people have this capital.”

Although these local officials do not have the same status as most of the fleeing nobles present, they are familiar with them, and their understanding of port affairs and even maritime affairs is much better than others present. When the port official said this, others present could not find any reason to refute it. It is true that although the Eruin people have a fleet, it is the only fleet in that small kingdom. Let’s not talk about whether Brando is qualified to mobilize at will. Even if he is qualified to mobilize, from Eruin to Loen It's far more than thousands of miles away. Do the Eruin people have the ability to teleport the fleet to such a long distance?

At least in the minds of most Cruz people, the Eruin people definitely do not have this ability.

Although they have to admit that the young Count Eruin in front of them is better than them all, but that is just an individual after all. One or two geniuses may be born in a kingdom. This is not surprising, not to mention the sword master. The example of Darus is there, and it is not unacceptable to these imperial nobles. But the fleet is different. The comparison of the naval strength between the two countries shows the gap in comprehensive strength between the two countries. Obviously, it cannot be changed by one or two geniuses, and the gap between the Kingdom of Eruin and the Empire , that is obvious and cannot be calculated based on facts.

Even if the empire wanted to teleport a local fleet to a place as far away as Eruin, it would still need to arrange a magic circle in advance, or even activate the Flame Chapel, which would consume a lot of materials and energy. How could a mere envoy bring this? Walking around the city with these things, unless they were preparing to attack the imperial capital from the beginning?

However, this was obviously impossible in the eyes of the nobles present.

The port official couldn't help but feel a little proud when he saw the other people's expressions worsening - although if Brando couldn't conjure a fleet out of thin air, he himself probably wouldn't be able to escape in this port, but he and the others were full of expectations at the beginning. The difference was that he never thought that the Eruin people had this ability. He only thought that they were liars who were outspoken. At this moment, he was naturally very happy to be able to stomp on the opponent's feet and breathe out his breath, so he continued: "This may disappoint everyone present. If you want to teleport the fleet to any place without preparation, Even the empire can’t do it, let alone those Eruin people.”

When he said this, the nobles present couldn't help but feel even lower. After all, no matter how capable these Cruz people thought Brando was, they would never admit in their hearts that even the empire couldn't do something. The Eruin people were actually capable. Do it - after all, this is not a competition between one or two people, but a comparison of national strength. After all, even those who have confidence in Eruin do not dare to say that Eruin is more powerful than the Cruz Empire. It's so ridiculous to say such generous words.

The port official himself thought so too. He obviously felt that his words were the final word and that no more miracles would ever happen. However, under such circumstances, something came from the crowd. A calm voice asked: "You mean, it can still be done, but the empire can't do it?"

Hearing this question, the port official couldn't help but twitch his eyelids, and immediately looked in that direction angrily, wanting to see who was so ignorant: What the Empire can't do, can the Eruin people do it? This is simply a fantasy! But when he raised his head, he first saw Kui wearing a knight uniform, and then his eyes fell on the simple badge on the chest of the black-haired young man, Director Luo, "Royal Knight?" He almost thought he had seen it wrong. I couldn't help but wipe my eyes. Only then did his expression change and he realized that the person asking him the question was really a genuine royal knight. Although he is arrogant. But he is not an idiot. He knows very well that most of these royal knights wandering around the place are inner court knights. After his expression changed for a while, he replied without daring to make any mistakes: "That is only a theoretical possibility. Unless There are countless wizards providing energy for this fleet and casting teleportation spells... The number of wizards required to do this is probably far from enough even if all the wizards in Eruin are gathered together."

The meaning of his words was actually to sentence Brando to death for his sworn promise. The hearts of everyone present could not help but sink deeply at this moment. Everyone could not help but subconsciously raise their heads and see. Looking at the gloomy and unchanging sky. There was still no movement among the towers. Whether the Earl was a liar or a miracle worker seemed to be revealed in an instant.

…

"see it?"

Wallas stared gloomily at the horizon and nodded. Standing on the top of the airport tower, he could already see a shadow floating on the horizon in the direction of the plain. That's a herd of dragon beasts. "The Pegasus Knights are ready to take off, but... I'm afraid it's useless. Unless the Griffin Knights of the Border Guard Corps are here, I'm afraid it won't be able to delay much..." He said to Marjorie a little stiffly. Answer - Not long ago, Brando sent this young noncommissioned officer to negotiate with him.

After Wallas finished speaking, he couldn't help but glanced in the direction of the cross-bridge again. As the person in charge of the port, he was different from the short-sighted officials below. After all, he could see what these wizards from Eruin were doing. These wizards and wizards The apprentice is really maintaining the port - not just pretending. For a moment, even he almost believed that maybe the earl could really conjure up a fleet, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why the other party was doing such useless work.

But the problem is that, just like the port officials below, even if he thinks about it, he can't figure out how Brando sent Eruin's royal fleet to this place.

"Mr. Marjorie," he couldn't help but asked with some difficulty: "Do you really think your captain can mobilize the Royal Eruin fleet to this place...I mean, we have run out of time. too much?"

After hearing these words, Marjorie withdrew his eyes from the horizon. He gave the old guy a strange look and replied: "When did I tell you that the Royal Eruin fleet would be here? I am the fleet." Sergeant, I can tell you clearly that the earl is not qualified to mobilize the royal fleet."

"Ah?" Wallas was almost stunned. He stared at the latter in stunned silence and asked tremblingly: "Then what are you doing here!?"

Marjorie shook her head calmly: "I don't know, but the Earl has his own ideas. As a soldier, I only need to obey orders."

Voras almost went dark after hearing this. The only hope for all of them is that Brando can mobilize Eruin's royal fleet here. That's it, it seems to him like a miracle. Something happened, and now the young petty officer actually told him with a calm face that their Earl might really want to conjure a fleet for them out of thin air. The question is, Martha, is such a thing possible?

Viscount Wallas only felt that even if the sun came out in the west, such a thing might not happen.

He stared at Marjorie dumbfounded. After a moment of dizziness, he seemed to remember something. He quickly turned around and ran towards Brando, shouting angrily: "Mr. Brando, you have to give me an explanation!"

But before he could take two steps, he was stopped by a figure. The person who stopped him was Charles. The latter smiled slightly and said: "Lord Viscount, don't worry, the lord is in contact with Eruin. We met It’s a bit troublesome, but trust me, my lord, he won’t let you down.”

"You guys..." Volas looked furious and couldn't help but replied eloquently: "Okay, I'll see how you can conjure up a fleet, damn Eruin people!"

When Charles heard this, he just shrugged slightly.

But he did not lie. Brando was indeed in some trouble at the moment.

The trouble comes from the Buga people——

…

"Ms. Tanya, I don't quite understand what you mean." Brando stared at the figure on his palm with a watery face, and replied angrily: "What exactly do you want to say."

"What I mean is very simple, little guy. You know, those guys at the top of the Silver Society always don't like to play their cards according to common sense. I just want to remind you, don't be too surprised." Tanya seemed like boiled water. General replied calmly.

"I don't care how you play your cards, as long as we complete our deal as promised."

"is that so?"

After Tanya said this, she couldn't help but subconsciously turned around and looked out the window with a strange expression.

There, outside the airport bridge in Valhalla, and even all the subjects in the entire Fir Territory, they could see pieces of silver light shining in the eastern sky, and floating ships one after another flashed out of the light and were parked. In mid-air, but in an instant, it occupied most of the sky. Next, more densely packed light points flickered. After each light point disappeared, a wizard in silver robes was left behind. Within a few minutes, the sky above Valhalla was filled with countless such lights. wizard.
