Shadows swept across the plain, as if a huge scythe swept across the meadow, causing the waves to fly, and the cavemen walking in the grass screamed and fled. A dragon beast was skimming through the air from a low altitude, followed by the second and third heads, rolling in one after another. The huge wingspan covered the sky and the sun, and the dragons walked in the air. The strong wind raised her long black hair, and the hair swept across her face. Modes tilted her head up and watched this scene with a little playfulness. From very close to very far in her field of vision, the vast horizon seemed to form a flat on the horizon. At the far end of the arc, at the far end of the arc, beyond the sight, the human city walls and the tips of the high towers are shining brightly.
There is where Ruen Port is—
…
At this moment, the bells jingling in the port of Ruen were ringing loudly, one after another, fast horses carrying the port guard’s messengers shuttled back and forth on the streets and alleys, and the sound of gusts of horses’ hoofs fell on the flagstones. It seems to fall in the panic. There is a gloomy cloud in the wharf area. Many port officials and the escaped Cruz nobles gathered here from Brando look gloomily toward the bay from time to time-as if seeing a wooden board floating on the sea can make them. It was a little more at ease, but it was a pity that the waters between the dozens of trestle piers that stretched straight into the bay were clean and empty, not even a single extra wave.
Cavemen are gathering on the plain.
The Griffin Rider who flew back from the plain also detected signs of the dragon and beasts being dispatched.
Obviously, Qiao Gendigang's army behind them has found their tracks and is ready to attack the city. Bad news followed one after another, but there seemed to be none of the good news. Rogers and others who were in the crowd at this moment did not look better than the others, although they had a little confidence in the young Lord Eruin from Eruin. But as time passed bit by bit, it seemed that it became more and more difficult to say how much this confidence still had.
"The smell of sulfur in the air is getting heavier," Trevor sniffed his nose, frowning and muttered: "The wind is blowing from the sea. We can smell the sulfur here, I'm afraid of dragons and beasts. The group is very close."
"Maybe that adult is coming soon too..." Rogers soothed in a low voice.
"Is it really fast?" Trevor looked up at the sea, not to mention the ship in the direction of the dock, and not even a guard could see it. It didn't look like a fleet would suddenly appear.
"Trevor, there is no need for that lord to deceive us," Nasha replied weakly, lying on the stretcher, "Even if the dragon and beasts arrive, the city defense can still support it for a while. There are also Pegasus knights in the port of Ruen. …" She seemed to give her companions a little confidence, but her complexion was not better. After all, if the Pegasus rider was really able to use it, the ship in the port of Ruen would not have been burnt. This is the truth. Everyone understands. At the end of the day, she couldn't speak anymore, she stopped and asked in a low voice: "Kui, tell me..."
Rogers and Tefrey also turned their heads and looked at the black-haired young man. Although the youngest member of the four didn’t speak much, but in every word, he was calm and calm. The more you get to this, the other side’s judgment becomes More reliable.
Kui raised his head and replied calmly: "I was thinking about what he said before. I don't know if I heard him wrong."
"What did you hear wrong?"
"I didn't pay much attention back then, but now in retrospect, the berth that the Lord Earl asked Count Alcons to prepare for him seems to be a special berth..." The black-haired young man frowned rarely and replied. .
"What did you say!?"
The direction of the wind suddenly changed over the field, and dark clouds began to gather on the sea.
More than ten minutes passed in a dignified state, but there was still no movement on the sea. Uneasiness was spreading among the crowd, especially among the nobles of Cruz. Hope-I hope Brando can perform a miracle at the last moment, but time passes by, and this hope is becoming increasingly elusive.
After the disappointment, voices of questioning bred out-thinking about it, I also understand how it is possible to turn into a fleet without words, and they believed it before.
The Cruz nobles looked a little ugly. Some people even suspected that Brando and his party had secretly abandoned them and left. Fortunately, before the spread of this theory, Enid and Princess Magdal brought the Eruin envoy to come. By refuting the rumors, the commotion was suppressed. But then another theory spread among the crowd. Although not everyone was present when the Earl of Alcons was handing over with Volas, there were always nobles who had witnessed the situation at the time, waiting for these nobles. Reacting from the anxiety, someone finally remembered like the black-haired young man that at that time Brando asked Viscount Volas to prepare for them a special berth in the port.
Floating fleet
Everyone subconsciously raised their heads and looked towards the sky. The white ivory towers are neatly arranged like comb teeth in the port area. However, the airspace between the towers and towers is still a clear space, except for a slight glow. The ring is spinning.
"Could the Lord Earl really conjure up a floating fleet to come here?" The Cruz aristocrat who was present couldn't help but feel suspicious.
"Don't dream, where did the Eruin people come from? The floating fleet." This time, it was the port officials at the Port of Ruen who broke everyone's illusions. Most of these people were local gentry and nobles, and they were clearly distinguished from the other escaped aristocrats on the wharf. They were unwilling to hand over the port to others—especially to a group of Eruins, but they were driven out of the airport by Charles, who was authorized by the Earl of Alcons, and lost a lot in front of everyone. Face, so although I knew that the Eruins were here to maintain the special berths in the airport, they deliberately watched them coldly.
In fact, from the bottom of their hearts, these people do not believe that these Eruins can transform into a floating fleet. Besides, they have never seen Brando's ability. As Cruz people, they would never believe a group. The hillbilly would be more powerful than them—this kind of mentality was once possessed by all the fleeing nobles present, but it was more or less reversed after experiencing the night of battle in Blackstone Town.
"... I can't say that. As far as I know, the Royal Family of Eruin still has a floating fleet." A voice in the crowd retorted, not giving any face to these local nobles. In fact, they fled between the nobles and these local nobles. I am not familiar with it, and even more noble in terms of birth status. After all, most of these port officials are just vassals of the Earl of Alcons, and the other nobles present still have a few status and status. Not inferior to Alcons himself.
Hearing this rebuttal, the port official who spoke before suddenly looked a little ugly. In fact, he didn't know that the royal family of Eruin had its own fleet, but in the eyes of the proud navy of the Cruz Empire-Eruin’s Yufeng elves The navy that helped build the navy that is not as powerful as the local fleet is not a real fleet at all. It is just a child’s toy, and as port officials of the empire, they are more or less affected by this kind of thinking. The impact, directly ignored this trivial fleet.
"That's also called the fleet? A group of unseen land-ducklings!" He cursed secretly in his heart, but he still understood that the identity of the other party was higher than himself after all, so he didn't dare to say this sentence, he just sneered: "Since everyone is also Knowing that it is the fleet of the Eruin royal family, it is difficult to say whether the Lord Earl can be mobilized. If I remember correctly, the Lord Earl is neither a member of the royal family nor an extraordinary minister, but an envoy. Take a step back and say that even if he can mobilize this fleet, it is different from most people’s imagination. In fact, the floating warship itself does not have the ability to transfer. The transfer of the fleet depends on the wizards and pre-arrangements in the fleet. A good large portal, the empire that relies on the temple is unique in this regard, but I don't think the Eruins have this capital."
Although these local officials are not as good as most of the aristocrats present, they are familiar with the sight and know about port affairs and even maritime affairs. They have much better understanding of port affairs and even maritime affairs than others present. According to this port official said, the others in the scene unexpectedly looked for them for a while. There is no reason to refute. It is true that although the Eruin people have a fleet, it is the only fleet in that small kingdom. Let’s not say whether Brando is eligible to be mobilized at will, even if it is eligible, from Eruin to Ruen. It is also far more than thousands of miles away. Do the Eruins have the ability to teleport the fleet to such a far place
At least in the minds of most Cruzes, the Eruins definitely don't have this ability.
Although they have to admit that the young Earl Eruin in front of them is better than them, but that is only an individual. One or two geniuses may be born in a kingdom. This is not surprising, not to mention that there are swordsmen. The example of Darus is there, and it is not unacceptable to these imperial nobles. But the fleet is different. The comparison of naval power between the two countries shows the gap in the overall 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's obvious, it can't be tricked.
Even if the empire wants to send a local fleet to a place as far away as Eruin, it needs to arrange the magic circle in advance, and even activate the flames, which consumes a lot of materials and energy. With these things swaggering through the market, unless they are ready to attack the capital of the empire from the beginning
However, in the eyes of the nobles present, this is obviously impossible.
The port official could not help but feel a little proud when he saw other people’s faces deteriorated-although if Brando couldn’t conjure a fleet out of thin air, he would probably not be able to escape in this port himself, but he was different from others’ expectations at first. , He never thought that the Eruin people had this ability, only that the other party was a brazen liar. At this moment, he was able to step on the opponent's feet to exhale, he was naturally very happy, so he continued: "That may disappoint everyone present. If you want to teleport the fleet to any one without preparation. The place, I'm afraid the Empire can't do it, let alone the Eruin people."
When he said this, the nobles present couldn't help but feel lowered. After all, no matter how these Cruz people think Brando is capable, they will never admit that even the empire can't do things. The Eruin people are actually capable. Do it-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 will not dare to say that Eruin is stronger than the Cruz Empire. Such ridiculous and generous words come.
And this port official himself thinks so too. He obviously felt that his words were already a conclusion, and there would never be any miracles that could happen again, but under such circumstances, it came from the crowd. A calm voice asked, "You mean, it can be done, but the empire can't do it?"
Hearing this question, the port official couldn't help but jumped his eyelids, and immediately looked in that direction annoyedly, wanting to see who is so unsure: what the empire can't do, can the Eruin do it? This is simply a fantasy! But he only looked up, first he saw Kui's knight uniform, and then he looked at the simple badge on the chest of the black-haired young man, "Royal Knight?" He almost thought he was wrong. I couldn't help but wiped my eyes, only to realize that the person who asked me the question was really a real royal knight. Although he was arrogant, he was not a fool. I knew that most of the royal knights who wandered around the place were. The identity of the knight of the inner court, after a change of expression on his face, did not dare to replied: "That is only a theoretical possibility, unless there are countless wizards to provide energy for this fleet and cast teleportation spells... This requires The number of wizards in the world is probably far from enough even if we gather all the wizards in Eruin."
What he meant by this sentence was actually the death penalty for Brando's vowed guarantee. The hearts of all the people present who had just raised it could not help but sink deeply at this moment, and everyone could not help but lift their heads subconsciously and look. Against the gloomy and unchanging sky, there was still no movement between the towers. Whether the Lord Earl was a liar or a miracle, it seemed that it was about to be revealed in an instant.
…
"see it?"
Volas stared at the horizon with a gloomy expression and nodded. Standing on the top of the tower in the airport, he could already see a shadow floating from the sky toward the plain. It was a group of dragons and beasts. "The Pegasus Knights are ready to take off, but... I'm afraid it's useless. Unless it's the Griffin Knights of the Border Guards here, I'm afraid it won't be delayed for a long time..." He replied to Marjorie a little stiffly. —Not long ago, Brando sent the young sergeant to negotiate with him.
After Volas finished speaking, he couldn't help taking another look in the direction of Yokohashi. 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 to be. For a while, even he almost believed it, or the Lord Earl could really conjure a fleet, otherwise he could not explain what the other party did with these useless efforts.
But the problem is that, just like the port officials below, even if he wanted to break his head, he couldn't think of 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 leader can mobilize King Eruin's fleet to this place... I mean, our time is running out." NS?"
After hearing these words, Marjorie looked back from the horizon. He glanced at the old guy in a strange way, and replied, "When did you tell you that the Royal Eruin fleet will come here? I am the fleet. Sergeant, I can tell you clearly, Lord Earl is not qualified to mobilize the royal fleet."
"Huh?" Volas was almost stunned. He looked at the latter dumbfounded, and asked tremblingly: "Then what are you doing here!?"
Marjorie shook his head calmly: "I don't know, but Lord Earl has his own ideas. As a soldier, I only need to obey orders."
Volas almost went black when he heard this. The only hope for all of them was that Brando could mobilize Eruin’s royal fleet here. That’s it, it seemed to him to be a miracle. Now the young sergeant calmly told him that their Lord Earl might really want to conjure a fleet for them out of thin air. The question is that Martha is on board, is this possible
Viscount Vollas only felt that even if the sun came out to the west, such a thing might not happen.
He stared at Marjorie dumbfounded. He seemed to think of something after a moment of dizziness. He turned around and ran towards Brando, shouting angrily: "Mr. Brando, you have to give me an explanation!"
It's just that he didn't run two steps, and he was stopped by a figure. It was Charles who stopped him. The latter smiled and said: "Viscount Lord, don't worry, Lord Lord is in contact with Eruin. It’s a bit of trouble, but trust me, my lord, he won’t let you down."
"You..." Volas said with a furious look, and couldn't help but replied without saying a word: "Okay, I'll see what you do. A fleet has been transformed, damn Eruin!"
When Shire heard this, he just shrugged slightly.
But he did not lie, Brando is indeed in trouble at the moment.
The trouble comes from the Buga—
…
"Ms. Tanya, I don't quite understand what you mean." Brando stared at the figure in his palm with a deep face, and replied grimly: "What are you trying to say."
"What I mean is very simple, little guy, you know, the guys at the upper level of the Silver Society always don't like to play cards according to common sense. I just want to remind you, don't be too surprised." Tanya seemed to boil water. Generally replied indifferently.
"I don't care how you play cards, as long as we complete our transaction as agreed."
"Is that right?"
After Tanya said this, she couldn't help but subconsciously turned her head, looking out the window with a weird expression.
There, outside Valhalla’s airport bridge, and even all the subjects in the entire firs, can see the eastern sky flickering with silver light, one after another, floating ships flashing out of the light and anchoring. In the mid-air, but in an instant, it took up most of the sky. Next came more dense light spots flickering. After each light spot disappeared, a wizard in a silver robe was left behind. Within a few minutes, the sky over Valhalla was covered with countless such things. wizard.
