The sixth day of Roland's coma.
Wendy was taking care of Anna when he entered the room.
"Let me come."
She picked up a bowl of clean water, came to the bed, wetted it with a cotton swab, and lightly smeared it on Roland's lips. Although the seed of symbiosis has been planted, his body has suffered certain effects, such as dryness and cracking caused by long-term dehydration.
These days, Anna spent far less time with Roland than Wendy, Nightingale and others. It's not that she doesn't want to, but she forcibly set a rule for herself, that is, the contact time does not exceed half an hour a day, otherwise she is afraid that she will never be willing to leave the room again.
Wendy would also let go of what she was doing at this time and let Anna come to accompany her.
These thirty minutes are usually peaceful and peaceful, as if time were stuck in the present moment.
The silence was not broken until the report from the guards outside the door came.
"His Royal Highness Anna, the investigation team ahead has returned, and everyone else is waiting for you in the staff room!"
Anna paused for a moment before slowly putting down the porcelain bowl in her hand.
"Anna..." Wendy said worriedly.
"Don't worry," she looked up, "I'm fine."
At that moment, Wendy felt that the state of Anna's whole body had changed, and the water-like eyes she had looked at Roland had become extremely firm now, as if the two were not the same person.
This girl was growing at an astonishing speed, Wendy realized, but recalling that when she was in Border Town, she was always the first to learn what Roland taught, so such progress might be reasonable. Because of Anna's relationship, the border town has become a holy mountain for witches, and now, she is leading everyone to a new peak.
"Go and accomplish what only you can do." Wendy said softly.
"Roland will ask you." Anna leaned slightly towards her, then walked out of the bedroom.
After crossing the long corridor and stairs to reach the door of the staff room, she stopped and took a few deep breaths before reaching out and pushing the door open.
"Your Highness the Queen!" Everyone in the room stood up and saluted her.
Anna didn't take it for granted, but replied with the same etiquette. She knew that what she was good at was extremely limited, and being able to arrange everything so that everything looked in order for the time being was the result of everyone's joint efforts.
"Let the meeting begin."
"Yes!" Dawn Chenguang replied respectfully.
The reconnaissance of the foggy island was jointly completed by Lightning, Maisie and Sylvie. According to the directions provided by Hykezord, Sylvie had confirmed the specific location of the island. Although the magic eye still cannot penetrate the illusion barrier, on the flat sea, it is as eye-catching as the stars in the night.
In addition, Sylvie also discovered a large number of magical reactions, which almost filled the surrounding sea area, which is why the expedition team finally gave up exploring deep into the fog.
There is no doubt that these sources of magic power belong to the Tianhai Realm, in addition to the common sea ghosts, nest mothers and blade beasts, there are also several extremely amazing "big guys". The devil calls it mountain-devouring beasts. They are usually evolved from nest mothers. They no longer have the ability to make foot beasts and blade beasts. Instead, they cover their bodies with thick armor and use their giant winch-like mouths to eat land. Create a suitable battlefield for the main force of Tianhaijie.
Obviously, Tianhaijie does not intend to surrender the bottomless realm.
Just when the staff was formulating countermeasures according to the new information, the combination of Silent Disaster and Isabella suddenly walked in. It can be said that the combination of these two people is quite strange. will be surprised.
But Anna knew that the part they were both responsible for was crucial.
And the other party did bring good news.
Isabella smiled at her, "Your Highness, the experiment was successful."
Anna couldn't help feeling relieved. At present, the biggest trouble in dealing with the Tianhai Realm is those blade beasts that come and go without a trace. The witches who are assigned to defend the Western Territory will inevitably lead to the emptiness of the defense of Neverwinter City. Therefore, the safest way is to allow ordinary people to find the traces of blade beasts. The Maharaja Chaos, who was promoted from the beholder, has the ability to break all obscurations, but the scope of action is small, far less versatile than passive vision.
If you can expand the range of Chaos Lord's ability several times, maybe it will have the effect of finalizing the sound.
It was none other than Hykezord who first made this point, and Anna immediately thought of the infinite sigil that Jero had used. Finally, the plan turned into three parts: the disaster of silence was responsible for persuading Chaos, and Anna was responsible for convincing Chaos. Rieta provides high-level magic stones, and Isabella conducts related research. That's what makes the combination so strange.
And Isabella's affirmation represents a breakthrough for the most troublesome part.
This also boosted the morale of the staff immediately.
At least there is now a visible direction to attack the Bottomless Realm.
After the theoretical conditions are met, the rest is the dispatch part.
"I hope there's still time in Greycastle." Agatha said, looking at the map of the four kingdoms.
"I believe Iron Axe and them." Anna said slowly.
…
Dawn Kingdom, Coral Bay.
White climbed onto the deck with crutches and slowly moved to the bow of the "Flying". This is a two-masted fast sailboat. Although it is also a kind of sea ship, its ability to resist wind and waves is not good. Most of the time, it can only rely on Sailing on one side of the coastline. However, its biggest advantage is that it is cheap. In the past, it required a few hundred golden dragons, but now it can be won with only 99. If it is replaced by Graycastle banknotes, you can get another 10% discount.
"Hello boss!" Sailors carrying cargo on the deck greeted him one after another.
White nodded in satisfaction.
If it was in the past, it would definitely be a huge expense to hire such a group of people. However, as those big merchants are more and more fond of paddle steamers, the price of ordinary sailboats can be said to drop again and again. The lads on the cross-sail were also much cheaper, after all those steamships needed neither sails nor so many people.
Looking at the sea with blue sky and white clouds, and listening to the melodious sound of seagulls, White's mood is particularly happy. From the coachman to the owner of the sailboat, his fixed assets have doubled. Although he still works in transportation, and his employer is basically Neverwinter, compared to a year or two ago, it is an earth-shaking change.
Of course, he has not forgotten his ideal of wanting to buy a steam truck, but now many new things have been added behind this ideal, such as buying more boats and cars... Of course, if a company specializing in transportation can be established The business couldn't be better.
"Boss, are you remembering bittersweetness again?" someone joked.
Sailors know that when their boss is happy, his favorite thing to do is to brag about his past experiences, and as long as no one interrupts him, talking about it for an hour or two will not be a problem. And as listeners, they can also take a break from their busy schedules and take a little more rest, so there will always be someone who starts this.
"What is Yikusitian? This is a life experience, you guys... just have too little knowledge." White stared, "I first pulled a cart for the Countess, then I worked for the church, and then I was hired by Graycastle. , I saved this family business. So those are not suffering at all, but the basis for success, understand!"
"Yes, yes, you are right!" Everyone nodded.
"Little bunnies, I know you're trying to be lazy again," White found a clean place to sit down and patted the floor beside him, "Come here, while I'm in a good mood today, it's okay to talk to you guys. ."
There were whistles on the deck.
White didn't care too much. He was not a noble. If he hadn't made the right choice and followed the majority of immigrants to Neverwinter, his current situation would not have been any better than these sailors.
"Today, I'll tell you about the story of the King of Greycastle's recovery of Shenchiwan, the heart of the wolf." There are soldiers who stand in the rain and do not fall, and noble missions that throw away their armor and armor when they are covered, but more content is concentrated on the fleet that covers the sky and the sun.
"You don't know what a huge team it is. The continuous white sails are almost longer than the sea antenna. Just looking at it from a distance can make people unable to move. It is no wonder that the Baron Shenchiwan has served His Majesty Roland on the spot."
"Is it really that exaggerated?"
"Hey, it was more exaggerated than I said, boy. I bet it was the most majestic scene I've ever seen in my life, and you can't even break your head. Don't even think about reaching the point where I am. Of course, such an opportunity may not be met after ten years." White said proudly.
"Uh... Boss, have you seen the boat that appears out of thin air?" someone asked.
"What nonsense are you talking about, what I said is true, not some folklore!"
"But it's just across from... the pier, and... there's more than one..." The man's voice stuttered.
"Did you drink too much last night?" White propped himself up, pushed away the sailors around him, looked towards the sea, and then froze in place.
He saw a huge "door" appeared on the sea.
And the ships with the Graycastle King's flag hanging like ghosts, one by one, sailed out of the door one by one, passing the stern of the Speeding Speed slowly at a distance of several hundred meters.
