Chapter 187 Rescue 2

Xela didn't bother to hide it, and said anxiously: "Yes, my daughter... scholar Dirac, is my daughter Ladi Setia Gerard!"

Quick jumped up: "Female consultant?"

Then he slapped his forehead hard.

"I am such a fool! Green hair, so handsome, and that familiar figure, isn't it the consultant lady?"

But now there is no time to blame myself for being stupid. Since the other party's mother came to ask for help, how can I not help? Escorting their family back to the northwest bay safely is my mission.

"Mrs. Setia? Where is your daughter now?"

"It should be in the forest north of Niceburg. This parrot will take us to the specific location."

"Parrot?"

Quick only then discovered that a parrot had landed on Mrs. Setia's shoulder inappropriately.

"Yes, this parrot is in tune with my daughter. It can sense that Ladi is in danger."

Although he had many doubts in his heart, Quick did not doubt the other party. Miss Ladi was deeply trusted by Earl Graman. What could be wrong with her mother who she admitted personally?

Besides, the place where they were in danger was the forest, so it should not be a dispute with the Alliance Government of Horn Bay. It is likely that they encountered some bandits or wild beasts.

But if they really got into trouble with the Alliance Government, then he could only ask the Foster family for help.

He immediately sent sailors to the cabin to wake everyone up, and then called the first mate, the second mate and Ladi's mother to the captain's room.

Quick briefly explained the situation and made arrangements immediately:

He and the second mate led thirty people to follow Lady Setia to the forest in the north of the city to find Miss Ladi, and the second mate led the remaining ten people to guard the South.

Everyone had no objection and immediately started to act.

The sailor on duty who was responsible for waking everyone up had already informed his companions of the cause of the incident. Everyone was surprised to learn that Mr. Dirac, who had been on the same ship with them for so long, was actually the delicate female advisor beside the lord.

And this beautiful female advisor was now in danger. For a time, everyone was excited and clamored for heroes to save the beauty.

Quick even skipped the pre-war mobilization and immediately selected 30 people, ordering them to take their weapons and line up on the shore.

Several curious little brat candidates were eager to sign up. They also wanted to go outside the city to see it, and it was exciting to carry out a rescue mission in the middle of the night.

Then they were locked in the captain's room.

There was a commotion in the cabin, and everyone took out their own equipment. In order to ensure the safety of the expedition to the south, the navy made great preparations. In addition to cannons and gunpowder, the Southern was also loaded with 40 rifles with bayonets and 10 "big guns" that could fire shotguns - large-caliber short-barreled rifles.

Sheila was surprised to see the sailors carrying "long guns and short guns" and running to the shore to line up.

Captain Quick ordered them to prepare their weapons, but what strange things did they take out?

She saw some people put a spike-like thing on the end of the strange "wooden stick" - in fact, she didn't know how to describe that thing, and the wooden stick seemed to have an iron pipe embedded in it - which looked like a spear, but much shorter than a real spear.

But this group of people were well-trained. They formed a neat team on the dock in just a few minutes. It can be seen that Captain Quick must have worked hard to train them on weekdays.

This made Sheila even more surprised. She had never seen any army that could do this.

Yes, the army. Now she has no doubt in her heart that the team in front of her is definitely a real army, not just an expedition team.

Quick said to Sheila: "Lady Setia, please... uh... please let your parrot lead the way."

Sheila nodded.

"Please, Polly."

The parrot Polly perched on her shoulder immediately spread its wings and flew into the air, making a sound to let people know its position, and Sheila followed closely behind.

"Everyone listen up! Follow Lady Setia closely."

At the captain's order, the temporary rescue team ran quickly.

...

At the north gate of Niceburg, several city guards were roasting a small fire. Although the autumn and winter seasons in the Horn Bay are not as cold as in the north, it is still a bit chilly to stand outside for a long time in the middle of the night.

The soldiers gathered together and listened to the captain talking nonsense while puffing on his pipe.

"You young people, you haven't heard of many ancient legends about Niceburg."

"Boss, you are a local here, you must know a lot?"

The captain raised his head with a little pride on his face.

"Of course, my family told me about it every day when I was a child."

"Tell me a few!"

Seeing that his subordinates were whetted, the captain opened up.

No mistakes, one post, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar!

"It is said that before the establishment of the Horn Bay Alliance, Niceburg was just an ordinary small town on the seaside."

"The people living here are unlucky. They pray to the Lord of Light for their lives every day. If it weren't for a special spice here, people would have left long ago. The residents are facing the threat of a terrible disaster."

Is it a horror story? The soldiers swallowed their saliva, "It is... what disaster?"

The captain showed a mysterious expression on his face and said word by word:

"Wolf plague!"

"Wolf plague?"

The soldiers were surprised that there were many wolves near Nisburg, but they rarely attacked passers-by on the road. As long as they didn't forget to run deeper into the forest, they would be fine.

The captain nodded and confirmed: "Yes, wolf plague!"

"Captain, the wolves here seem to be very docile."

"Huh! That was now, it wasn't like this a hundred years ago!"

The captain continued to act mysterious.

"It is said that a long time ago, the wolves of Nisborg were very fond of eating people!"

"It's not like now, only targeting those unlucky ones who are lost in the deep forests! Instead, they attack business travelers in groups in broad daylight, and those wolves are very organized, just like a human army."

The soldiers shrank.

"The largest wolf pack now only has about a dozen or so, but at that time wolves appeared in hundreds and hundreds."

"On the night of the full moon, it is a time of hell for the people of Nisborg. At this time, the hungry wolves are no longer content with robbing pedestrians on the road, but will actively attack the town. They rush into the door without locking it. They took away poultry and livestock from their yards, and even took away human children.”

"The ancestors were miserable. They never thought of organizing an organization to exterminate the wolves, but they suffered heavy losses when they entered the depths of the forest. Legend -"

"What's the legend?"

"Legend has it that there is a wolf king leading them..."

At this moment, a wolf howl suddenly came from far and near, and the captain and soldiers heard it clearly.

"Ouch——"
