Chapter 767: Wanghai City Pier
The huge battleship was sailing at high speed, and the radar installed high up was rotating to detect the situation in the sea area. The antennas of various electronic equipment were densely packed. Various displays in the bridge command cabin showed the detailed situation of the surrounding sea area. Whether it was a large warship or a small single-person wooden boat, it was marked on the radar screen, but it was listed as yellow and non-threatening.
The behemoth was sailing on the sea, and many fishing boats or merchant ships dropped their jaws in surprise when approaching the coast.
"God is also here... I saw a floating island..."
From the side, it really looked like a floating island, with dense superstructures and various equipment, a flag hanging high on the mast, and a starship on the dark blue flag. This was the naval flag made by the magic cube, simple and direct, as if the Shenwu Continent had no national flag. Most countries had a golden flag with their own country's name embroidered on it, such as the word "Yun" for Yunguo and the word "Yao" for Yaoguo, and there was no high-end and classy symbol such as the national anthem.
The battleship passed in front of the fisherman who was exclaiming in a domineering manner. When the fisherman felt the fierce domineering force up close, he was so frightened that his teeth chattered while sitting on the boat.
The bow broke through the huge waves, and the waves caused by the battleship made the small fishing boat fluctuate up and down...
The Magic Cube notified Princess Junru in advance that it would arrive at the Wanghai City Pier at 8 am, and specifically asked her to dock at the largest deep-water port and a large area. Princess Junru didn't understand why, and thought that the fleet brought by the Magic Cube was too many ships. She generously ordered the deep-water port to be cleared and waited for the Mechanical Empire warship to visit, and prepared the palace guards in advance to welcome it in person.
In order to deter those domestic scoundrels and forces from various countries, the news of the Empire's visit was spread. The pier was particularly lively that day. In addition to the major families of the country's major forces, there were also people from other countries, and merchants also came to join in the fun. The high-rise lofts such as the restaurant far from the pier were all booked.
The weather is nice today. Princess Junru came early with a group of Yao ministers in her best clothes, brought chairs and umbrellas, drank tea and waited.
The ministers were divided into several groups and gathered together to talk about the news they had received about the Mechanical Empire. The existence of the ironclad ships made these ministers very interested. How many ironclad ships there are, how many ordinary warships there are, how many soldiers the Mechanical Empire will send, etc. Many people, including Princess Junru, believe that the Mechanical Empire is a land country hidden in the sea for many years, but it has only appeared in front of people recently. Some people also believe that the Mechanical Empire does not exist at all.
In a four-story restaurant, a young man holding a folding fan looked calmly at the dock outside the window.
"Feng Jiu, what is the origin of this Mechanical Empire? Why can't we find it anywhere? Is it a country that does not exist at all?" The young man put down his wine glass and said lightly.
"Master, I have seen those two ironclad ships. From the outside... they are indeed smoother than those of the empires, but I have never seen such a small ship. The soldiers on the ship did not carry swords, but only black strange things. It is very strange." The middle-aged man dressed as a shopkeeper replied carefully.
The young man sat on the chair and looked out the window without saying a word, shaking the folding fan in his hand slowly.
"Well, today we can see the strength of their mechanical empire. If it is fake, then we will divide the Yao Kingdom." His expression was indifferent as if he had said something insignificant.
"Master, you are wise~"
The attic returned to silence. Not only this place, but also people from various forces were watching the dock. Princess Junru was under great pressure at the dock. On the one hand, she hoped that the mechanical empire could show a powerful strength that could shock the other countries, but she was also afraid that the mechanical empire did not exist. If the mechanical empire was fake, Princess Junru would definitely collapse. It was really not easy to pin her hopes on an empire she had never heard of.
A purse on her waist vibrated, and Princess Junru took out a mobile phone from the purse and clicked the green button.
"The warship will arrive at the port in 20 minutes. I also brought you an ally. You will be very interested."
"Finally I heard your news. How many warships and troops are coming? Don't tell me that there are only those two ironclad ships. There are many people waiting here." Princess Junru asked nervously. She was really afraid that there were only those two ironclad ships instead of a fleet.
"One warship, one thousand soldiers."
Pop! The phone fell to the ground, and Princess Junru stood there with her eyes wide open.
Many people saw Princess Junru's performance. Gradually, low laughter sounded in the crowd. Most of them thought that she was fooled because there was no fleet or mechanical empire today. A woman had to fight with so many masters. Don't you know that women are virtuous without talent? Now it's good. It's better to die than to be embarrassed in front of so many ministers and envoys from various countries.
It was indeed as those people thought. Princess Junru was about to collapse. One ship! One thousand people! What is the purpose of this scene today! Can a ship be used in such a large place? How much can a thousand people do for a war?
Princess Junru seemed to be unable to hear those jeers and dirty smiles, and silently bent down to pick up the phone.
"How did you drop the phone? Fortunately, the phone is strong, otherwise the repair cost would be high." The magic cube said indifferently.
"You know... I asked all the ministers of Yao and envoys from various countries to stand on the dock and wait for your mechanical empire, but you told me that there is only one warship and one thousand soldiers... After today, I am afraid that Yao will fall apart internally. Sigh... Forget it, I don't blame you. These are things that will happen sooner or later. You don't have to come..."
Princess Junru was pale and motionless.
The magic cube was stunned on the other end, and then figured out what was going on.
"Don't worry, I promise to satisfy you. Sometimes the number will not play any role if the gap is too big. For example, ten thousand soldiers can't do anything to a martial king. Wait for fifteen minutes." After the magic cube finished speaking, it hung up the communication.
At the dock, many people were whispering, and all kinds of ridicule rushed to Princess Junru like a tide, saying that women without talent are virtuous, women should not show their faces, other women would have married and had children at this age, etc., especially those who proposed to the old king to marry Princess Junru but failed to find reasons to belittle her to death. In this feudal era, women coming to the front seemed to have touched many people's taboos, and they wanted to step on Princess Junru and teach her a lesson.
The breeze blew, and the golden hairpin on Princess Junru's head swayed. She was thinking about how to end it. I'm afraid that in a few days, a big joke will spread to the surrounding countries? People will know that there was a stupid princess who dreamed of becoming a queen and relied on an empire that didn't exist at all, but was deceived...
Unconsciously, a black dot appeared on the sea in the distance, and the black dot was getting bigger and bigger. The shape of the black dot was different from that of an ordinary ship. Many people saw at a glance that it was an ironclad ship, but... why was the ironclad ship getting bigger and bigger?
