The Amber Sword: Act 129 Routes


There are no lights in the entire fleet, like dark fish schools floating above the night sky. The moonlight occasionally passed through the clouds, spilling the clear glow on the undulating sea, and reflecting the fleet's shadow on the waves. The silver sails are bright and dark from time to time, as sparkling silver light flickers. The entire fleet sails in mid-air rumblingly, but the more so, the night becomes more and more silent. The entire vast lofty inland sky seems to be shrouded in this kind. Under a strange atmosphere.

The indoor air of the cartography is also a bit silent. Several large maps of the entire empire and a map of the surrounding areas of the sublime inland sea are spread out on the table. A corner of the side is pressed with a black leather sheath dagger, and the other is placed with a With sextant or something similar. There were several chairs by the table, Marjorie, Ciel, Ivoram, Orkens Count, and another of their spokespersons, who was promoted by nobles, sat around the table. Brando sits at the top, with female mercenary commander Jutta in his sword and Scippamira holding a scepter behind him.

Ladies don't want to be crowded with these men, so they stand a little farther and watch the men discuss from a distance. In fact, except for Kiara and O'Neill, several other women were not interested in this dull meeting. Ynead was a small Her Highness the Princess accompanying the Sifah family, and Judy was used to O'Neill. After all, this little girl was only used to Less than 11 years old and still afraid of being alone.

There is a youngster standing in the middle of everyone. He is wearing a captain's costume: a straight blue grey coat, a gold fringe hanging on the shoulder badge, a belt, light grey breeches, and black boots. Glove, on the map: "Lord Thane, our first quest / mission is to determine the route, such a huge fleet cannot always drift on the sea, and provisioning is a big problem. So we have to find a suitable target port. This place must It must have the following conditions: first, it must be able to accommodate our fleet, second, it must be able to provide us with sufficient supplies for a long time, and third, and most importantly, the attitude of this port to us, this It is also the guarantee of the first two points. "

"It can accommodate our fleet. At least it must have the qualification of a first-class port. There are not many such ports around the lofty inland sea." Ivoram replied a little bit, the cabin was so stuffy that the Duke heir The sweat on the forehead and the fat around the neck was full of glittering sweat, and the silk robe was soaked with a large piece. The maid kept fanning him with a fan, but it didn't help. The sweat was like a waterfall. Crossflow. He wiped his forehead with a handkerchief and continued: "Only Mantle Bay, Metz and other lush commercial areas. There are such ports. I thought about it. The closest to us should be Emma, ​​Jinling, Fattan ... "

He's not as brash as other noble children, but he's a bit timid, and he doesn't know if it's because he has too much contact with the family business and has become a careful businessman. After he wiped a sweat, he frowned and worried: "Master Commander has the anchorage of first-class port qualification. Most of them can support our fleet for a long time. But the problem is that Kirrlutzian may not be assured that our fleet will enter their fleet. Port. Sir, you were originally -- "

Brando Of course I know what this guy who is cautious about everything is going to say. It was because they thought that he had only a few ships on his Brando. With the relationship between the Ivoram family in the empire, only the business partners who used to take care of one or two The problem of docking and replenishment can be easily solved. But let Kirrlutzian be blind. Putting such a huge fleet into the port, or even just passing through the waters near the port, is not a trivial matter. His original relationships may not be useful.

This is also the trouble Buga people are looking for. Why would Brando think of such a huge fleet that arrived in the Empire, but of course he wouldn't let Ivoram tell the rest of the words, interrupting each other with a wink: "I know, you don't have to worry, you just need to advance Let your friends know, let them rest assured, so as not to let Kirrlutzian think we are their enemy. "

"Really ..." Ivoram muttered in his heart, thinking it was so simple? Such a huge fleet that does not belong to its own suddenly appeared in the territory of the empire. I am afraid that the responsible Kirrlutzian cannot sleep well. What to say is assured, it is a bit taken for granted.

It's just that Brando has already established the best authority in the mission since these days, so these doubts can only rot in his stomach, and he will never rush out.

Brando's glanced over those yellowed maps, his gaze moved along the rugged coastline of the lofty inland sea, as if he was thinking about it, after a short while, he decided directly: "Let's go to Fattan."

The for a moment in the room is so quiet that everyone is looking for their final destination along the eyes of the young Count.

The two Kirrlutz noble are obviously more familiar with the one's own motherland. Fattan is located in the province of Le Meridien, located on the estuary of the Jinzhan River. It lies near the short-maned mountain range in the east, which is located at the westernmost point of the Mez It is the northern portal of Evergreen Aisle, which is the heartland of the northwestern region of the empire, and the port of Fattan is the center of this area and one of the largest ports in Simez. Orkens Count glanced at the map, and frowned, "Isn't it too close here?"

Brando glanced at him and understood that the other side meant that Fattan Port was too close to Evergreen Aisle, afraid that the Gorgon Ravine army would arrive here all the way after breaking through the Yasa fortress. The noble such as the other party experienced a life of fugitive life. Afterwards, I finally had a chance to catch my breath, and I no longer hope that this experience will come again.

He shook his head slightly.

In fact, the choice of Fattan Port was by no means a temporary decision. Thurman has already selected this port for them. Although Buga did not say why, Brando believes that the other party must have some information, just for some reason. Taboo cannot be so straightforward. He can even guess boldly that Silver Lineage may have used their monitoring stations above the earth, so at such a sensitive time, Thurman could only choose such a subtle way to remind him.

Right now, this brief meeting is nothing more than masking the eyes and ears of Kirrlutz noble. Brando replied: "Lord Count. White legion is still in Evergreen Aisle. Gorgon Ravine's army is not so easy to break this line of defense. . Take a step back and say that if the White legion can't stop them, there will be no safe place in the entire Metz area. You can't let us go directly to the heart of the Empire, right?

Orkens Count frowned, he could hear the voice of this young Count. Not to mention he also understands what it means for such a huge fleet to go directly to the empire's bellyland. At that time, I am afraid that no matter whether they are with good intentions or carelessness, they will be greeted by the Royal Kirrlutz Royal Fleet and Pegasus Knights. Frontal blow.

"So," the other Kirrlutz noble present here is the common representative of other noble outside the Leeuwin port. This is a good-looking gentleman, but he now looks more nervous than Orkens Count: "Why don't we go to Mantle Bay What? "

The real reason for not going to Mantle Bay, naturally Thurman warned him in advance, those noble on the battlefield of Final Battle. Today, most of them are rooted in this area. Needless to say, these people must be surrounded by her Majesty's hardcore. And in these decades, The Silver Queen has never reused noble in this area, only to let them firmly hold the empire's navy. This message is more vigilant than Her Majesty's attention to these nobles, and Brando.

Obviously, Constance treats these people as an important helper behind it, and it will not be put on the table until the critical moment. Also known as the hole card. Knowing this, Brando will naturally not bump into the opponent's net in a silly way. Of the Mantle Bay and Metz regions, it is clear that the former cannot be relied on in any way.

But you can't say that right now.

Brando glanced at the man, and the other person's problems were not unexpected, but fortunately, these Kirrlutzians have not started to suspect anything, but only instinctively want to stay away from danger. He smiled slightly, and replied with a brave answer: "In fact, the two do not have to worry so much. With my fleet alone, the Gorgon Ravine people have nothing to do with us. What is more threatening to us is the Imperial Army, The two did n’t want to escape the danger, but died in their own hands for no reason? ”

"This is the heartland of the Empire. Everything must be done with care. I chose Fattan because of many factors. First of all, I do n’t want to conflict with the Imperial Navy, and I do n’t want your Her Majesty to feel too much. I ’m too nervous, to be honest, it ’s just a small ambassador Commander. If you do n’t encounter the current situation, you would never want to make it so troublesome. So let ’s not complicate the situation further, What do you think? "

Orkens Count thought for a moment, and felt that it was the same thing, but he really sniffed at the Brando sentence ‘it ’s just a small envoy Commander’. Has there ever been such an envoy? Almost without driving the fleet directly into the imperial capital, forced the palace to Her Majesty. He couldn't help thinking about this, thinking about where the could it be that empire had offended this **** guy fiercely, otherwise why could the other party be so arrogant? After thinking for a while, he slowly nodded and accepted the Brando's statement.

The remaining gentleman is actually looking at the Orkens horse head, so naturally it is not good to put forward any other opinions. After a while of discussion, the two sides basically determined some details after the fact. In fact, there is nothing about these Kirrlutz noble. The requirements of Brando for them are basically as long as they do not cause trouble, but this feeling makes Orkens Count very uncomfortable, so it is still very uncomfortable. After taking the initiative to wait until Fatan, he can also use some relationships to at least let Kirrlutzian guarantee the supply of their fleet.

Of course, he also considered this from his own safety. After all, the Brando's fleet is currently his only protective talisman.

After confirming the route, the Kirrlutz nobles, who was nervous all day, finally relaxed, and only then did the fatigue suddenly return to these noble adults who are noble and good on weekdays. After a full day of fear and fear, after witnessing a battle and tossing back and forth, even characters like Orkens Count couldn't help feeling a little dizzy and soon left the rest.

After these Kirrlutzians left one by one, Brando immediately took off his relaxed appearance and became serious. He ordered all members in the mission to stay, and this meeting place. He was chosen in the captain's room.

The captain's interior of the Akhenaten is quite spacious and luxurious. All the members that accommodate the envoy are not overwhelming, but at this moment the atmosphere in the room is a little dignified, and a strange silence surrounds everyone. Ivoram was still sweating hard, but his maid already was gone and O'Neill frowned. Still biting her lower lip, she subconsciously glanced at the Marjorie beside her. Among all the people, only the young NCO seemed calm. The latter stood there firmly, his eyebrows still, like a soldier waiting for the command of the general. . Not far away, the captain of the USS Akhenaten took a curious look at this side, thinking who this one is, maybe he is a confidant of Lord Thane's, but he has never seen it before.

Marjorie's side. It was the other ladies in the ambassador group, Ynead and Judy both looked very nervous. Count of Swallowburg is slightly better, but it is still immersed in the previous shock and has not returned. Only Princess Magdelle is calm and calm. The expression on her face Kiara is very complicated, sometimes raising her eyebrows and sometimes showing a weird smile, but in general it is a look of eyebrows. Let people see at a glance that it is a character who is afraid of the world.

Silent for a while, someone finally broke the heavy atmosphere of Death Qi.

It's O'Neill: "Master Commander. I ... we don't believe you will open your mouth, but what you said is probably too much ... too much ..." She had wanted to say that it was too far-reaching, if it had been A month or two ago, she promised to scream like this. But before she knew it, Brando had established an authoritative image in the hearts of these people, even though she was unwilling to admit it. But in fact subconsciously already recognized this. This impolite word turned around in her mouth a few times, after all, she couldn't say it.

Brando looked at these people, and he chose to reveal the truth of Thurman to one's own and told them the truth frankly, not because of impulse, but at this time of the day. He needs at least the support and recognition from his own country. What he has to do now is to control those Kirrlutz noble so that they won't cause trouble. It is not enough to rely on him alone to achieve this. He needs the help of others.

These Aouine noble in the mission are the help he can rely on. In fact, it was not until this moment that Brando first recognized the noble of this kingdom. These young noble descendants have not yet been completely affected by the set of Lawss of their parents. The inherent rebellion lies in them. The brilliance of freedom and ideals blooms in your body, which is a vitality incompatible with this decaying and ancient kingdom.

"I believe you can judge for yourself whether I say true or false." Brando simply answered.

O'Neill will stop talking. If Brando tells them these things on the first day, they may still suspect, but in fact, as soon as they broke through the Gorgon Ravine army ’s defense line, the Commander warned them presciently. Those dragons may have something to do with The Silver Queen. After having this level of doubt, then contact the truth heard today, and connect all the clues together, and all the problems will be solved.

In fact, they already recognized this statement in their hearts, just because it was too shocking and could not reverse the original understanding of the world for a while.

But after a while, Mr. NCO who stood like a javelin opened his mouth: "Lord Thane," he said in a deep voice.

Brando for a moment, he suddenly realized that Marjorie called him Lord Thane instead of Commander in other populations. He couldn't help looking at the other with some doubt.

"Lord Thane," Marjorie replied, "If you have any order, please tell me. I am an soldier and know what to do at this time."

Brando took a look at this guy in surprise. He originally thought he was going to persuade O'Neill first, but he didn't expect that this usually dumb guy opened his mouth first. He nodded slightly, and looked at the others: "What about you?"

"... Master, we ... are we going to fight the empire?" Ynead asked with a little fear.

"No," Brando shook his head: "But we are afraid to fight with Her Majesty, but you don't have to worry too much, we may not be alone."

"Sir, do you mean someone will help us?" Ivoram asked stuttering.

"I'll know when the time comes." Brando stared at the huge map of the whole empire hanging on the wall of the captain's room, his eyes rested on the position of Fattan Port, and answered quietly. Then he changed his tone and gave the order: "Marjorie, Ivoram, then your real order, listen to --"

Both of them are subconsciously.

"When the fleet arrived in Port Fattan, your quest / mission is, take over the port immediately." Brando's heavily bit out the word "takeover": "whether by peaceful means or by force."

He came raises head, his eyes were as bright as a flame: "Did you understand?"

Two youngsters were there at the same time.
