Black Scepter Chapter 71: Encounter of Imperial Fleet (five k)

【Five Thousand Words, Seek Monthly Ticket Support! 】

Since various countries on the mainland received the Morpheus "warning", two months have passed quietly.

In the past two months, the mainland looks calm and even calmer than ever before—because no one dares to open the war end at will, all empires are like a long bow slowly pulling away, waiting The so-called "crisis".

But what about the crisis? When will the enemy invade?

Pay attention to it, but they all understand that the "crisis" of the Dragon Knight Morpheus does not have an accurate time point. Maybe three days or three years. Who can know?

However, the news that Morpheus was injured by an inexplicable enemy has spread wildly, causing the emperor monarchs to frown.

Thanks to the grand ceremony of Edward III, Morpheus is famous, otherwise his few words will never have such an effect. To a certain extent, Morpheus's remarks have dominated the history of this continent. ——But as this figure of public opinion, Morpheus lived in Sicelin City and disappeared.

The prototype of the Magic Tower is already in sight. It is estimated that the main body of the 70-meter-high tower has been completed with the efforts of countless workers day and night construction. Creevey draws those "energy-draining phalanxes" in the proper way, and it can fully activate the city's defense mechanism.

And in the magic laboratory, the masters who have also developed and improved on the subject given before Morpheus have become unkempt in the past two months, and the numbered "everyone" "People" carried the magic to the outside, put Mars, who was nearly collapsed, into a position, then burst into a crackle, and dragged back to continue to improve.

This behavior is performed almost every day, but all the members of the "night watch" up and down are already used to it.

Uninformed people are only doing magic experiments, but only those wizards who participate in the research will understand...they are creating something amazing...like a stirrup to make cavalry no longer Like the ribs and becoming the trump card of the battlefield, the "big guys" who have piled up a whole warehouse in the laboratory will eventually leave a strong mark in history.

For the mages, this is like a burst of lasting stimulant, urging them to sleep and forget their work.

Of course, the unlucky is Mars, whose wound is getting bigger and bigger.

For the core members of the night watchman, these two months are a period of steady rise.

Little Lori Andariel’s attainments of her magic go one step further, and her strength has successfully reached a level. Of course, her real strength is far more than that-because of the previous "accident", now she is facing Morpheus There has been a slight change in attitude from before, but no one has done anything.

After Jode came to Ballycee, he prayed every day as usual. As Morpheus said, faith will not deteriorate, the sunlight above it will always be sunshine, and the shaking will not be faith, only Confidence-her piety is enough to match any saint in history, not because of her strong willpower, but because someone took her to the top of the mountain to see the scenes that mortals could not see. The original version of The Theological Encyclopedia was neatly placed on the shelves by Morpheus, and dozens of copies of the printed version have been stored in the public library in the territory.

This classic was not issued in Byzantine, but it was handed down in Balice in this way-the two major religious institutions would never have thought that the Morpheus, who had been opposed to them for so long, would do such a thing. , But this is the case... Just like the bishops who are skilled in magic arts can never obtain the title of saint, true believers will never advertise their piety.

"Letter from Byzantine."

Atlantis, the Japanese elf Irindal handed over a letter and a sealed iron box to Morpheus. Now that she has re-adapted to her post, she gradually has some temperaments that have never been highlighted, perhaps because The reason why she served as the patriarch of the Japanese elves, leading the clan to the new life is something she has to think about every day. Fortunately, Morpheus has not embarrassed any elves on these issues. It can even be said that he has nodded all his requests for Irene There was no frown, and even bargaining never happened.

Just as he promised, now Morpheus is silently performing his duties without complaints.

Morpheus opened the letter from the Byzantine royal family. After squinting and reading it carefully, it was silent for a long time. Until he raised his head, he looked at Irindal unexpectedly: "I thought You are gone."

"It may be something that matters. I will wait for the order here." She is familiar with Morpheus, of course, she understands the weight of the letter, although she has to take the correspondence between Lilith and Morpheus every week. A few trips, but the official letter of the Byzantine royal family appeared for the first time in two months.

Morpheus sighed and smiled: "I just missed things just now, but since you are here, I want to hear your opinion."

"Mine? I am just an intelligence officer."

Irindahl was a little surprised. She pointed to herself, saying that she didn't have much interest.

"But you are a Japanese elf, and you also understand that after all, our races are different and there are differences in the way of thinking." Morpheus shook the letter in his hand. "The Byzantine's navigational action has made great progress, and the most important discovery But the Buttigian royal family has obtained a lot of "continuous crossbows". This weapon can help an army of the empire to enhance its great combat capabilities. It can even be said that the longbowmen under Hegel collectively become the dust of history.. ."

"The question now is, are these resources at the other end of the sea, do we need to fight now?"

Irindal has some inexplicable feelings because she never knows how to face such a problem of determining the fate of a territory or even a country-she can be ordered by wording in the information that comes and goes. The style sees who they are from, and obviously... the problem that Edward III puts in front of Morpheus is not as simple as imagined.

"At risk."

For a while, she replied, but Morpheus nodded and did not comment too much.

"Now the entire continent is full of wind and trees because of my few words. The seemingly stable situation can't be sustained for long. Maybe three months or half a year, after all, humans won't be able to bear the silence." Reached out and put the "Theological Encyclopedia" that I had been reading in front of the desk back into the bookshelf, "And the elves are not, so this is why I have to ask you-the day elves and night elves have no way to survive elsewhere, so these days come I can only try to meet all your requirements, though—"

"You have done enough."

Ilindal suddenly seemed to understand the meaning of Morpheus. She pressed her lips slightly to stop his following words, "If the war spreads to Lampard, we will not complain at all."

Morpheus didn’t speak, just continued some thoughts for a moment, saying: "I desperately make the territory a solid place, but I will not confirm that this is 100% effective. Edward III hopes that I can support the Empire as a member of Byzantine. Diplomacy and dig out the'first pot of gold'...but I understand...the harder you work, the more Lampard's enemies will be..."

"The tree of Hida will provide you with the most powerful energy backing. I want to say so much is enough." Irindal suddenly smiled, but there was a touch of imperceptible emotion in the corner of his eyes, "but I I will still say..."

"No matter what happens, don’t forget that there is another elf who cares about your safety."

After a few seconds of pause, the intelligence chief took a sigh of relief and retired politely, leaving the stunned Morpheus silent at his desk.

He placed the letter in his hand on the table, and the payment of Edward III made the value of this autograph letter virtually innumerable—because royal letters were usually dictated by the emperor and dictated by the clerk, the prince himself The payment signifies that the letter was written by himself, and Edward III's "sincerity" for Morpheus is reflected in this detail.

"Mainland Winner?"

Morpheus whispered the name of the new continent in Edward III’s mouth, reached out and picked up a box that was not sealed by the high-level magic circle without giving the unblocking spell-presumably this was for himself to be opened. Set.

"Click."

The seal was lifted effortlessly, and Morpheus opened the heavy metal box, and then gently took out the items that made him frown like that.

The crossbow.

.................................................. .....................................

"Why go?"

Ashkandi was puzzled by Morpheus’s decision. She looked at the man in the wheelchair and didn’t know what to say.

Andaril, who is also in Ashcandi's study room, also stopped the movement of turning the book in his hand, raised his head, and raised his eyebrows, waiting for the answer of Morpheus.

The reaction of the two beauties, big and small, made Morpheus's original words stuck in his throat. He coughed twice and finally sat in the chair beside him, saying: "Edward III came Letter."

"Why, the Dragon Knight is going to be drafted into the army?"

Andaril whispered slightly, looking quite dissatisfied-in the past two months, she has been accustomed to living in Arantes where she can see the Morpheus every day, because of the seal memory and psychological age Not so big, she didn't know why she had some dependence psychology, but when she heard Morpheus said she wanted to leave Lampard for a while, her heart suddenly lost.

"I am also hesitating."

Morpheus said helplessly beside Ashkandi: "I have too many reasons to refuse his request, but there is only one thing that makes me unable to say it."

"That strange-looking weapon?"

Ashkandi didn’t stay inside the tower all day, Andaril often pushed the blood to breathe in the city of Sisselin under the sun, except that the magicians often obscure the blood of the angel. In addition, Morpheus's experiment Ashcandi, who has been on the hunting ground for the past few days, also looks in the eyes.

For her words, Morpheus nodded, "The weapons developed in the laboratory are aimed at angels and demons, but because of many conditions, they can only be used for the defense of the territory. If you leave the city of Sisrin, everything Will be completely passive, so I still need to make the'night watch' stronger weapons-Edward III gave me a very ideal answer, but obviously..."

"A long time to go out?"

Ashkandi's tone is also somewhat lost.

"I won’t leave you alone here for a long time." Morpheus smiled, then turned to look at Andalil, and said: "Be prepared for the luggage, I think this trip may be more than any time. It’s all exciting."

"I am also going?"

Loli’s eyes, which had some small and lonely expressions, suddenly became bright. She saw Morpheus nodded. She tried to cover up the expression of her mouth, and turned her head to say, "It’s not rare."

"Because of the existence of the tree of Hida, there are a large number of crystal nuclei left in the territory. I will draw a teleportation circle in this plane. At any place, I can return by drawing another bidirectional circle. So don't worry about the security of the territory." Morpheus told Ashcandi his plan-"The new fleet of Byzantine has already started, we just meet with each other directly on the sea, and the next is some diplomatic issues. , Of course, it does not rule out encountering unexpected situations."

"Only me and Andalil?"

"And Hydera. Our team does not need any servants, the Byzantine royal family will arrange everything."

"What about Joan of Arc?"

A very thoughtful Ashcandi did not forget to remind Morpheus the little magician brought from Byzantine.

"The magician needs to accumulate, not accompany me to travel the world."

.......

The voyage of Byzantine is slightly behind compared to Ballice, but the powerful national power makes the fleet equipped can definitely be called the most advanced level today-from quantity to quality, it steadily surpasses Buttigia The envoys sent by the royal family found the continent called the "treasure" by the royal family of Buttigia along the charts brought to the Byzantine royal family by Morpheus at the time of the "grand ceremony", and they tasted the "sweetness" like them. .

Rich resources and powerful weapons, but unlike the royal family of Buttigia, Byzantine is not ready to immediately exchange resources for a powerful weapon called "Lian Xuan"... because Edward III’s strategy is very simple -Let Morpheus go out.

The display of powerful forces is to allow the other party to attach importance to itself in terms of military strength-the two countries are far apart, and the aggression is simply unrealistic, and the strong strength will make the other party believe that they have the value and necessity of forming an alliance.

On this alone, His Majesty Hasselblad of Ballyche can only sigh... Who would let his country not have a strong presence like Morpheus?

Morpheus does not exclude Edward III’s intentions. After all, Byzantine wants to have more than just a crossbow, but also its manufacturing technology-the box that was handed over to Morpheus with the letter is not "original" Even the crossbow is a sample of Freud's hand-painted improved magic array.

Under the "processing" of the Byzantine Holy Dome Master, its accuracy has increased by a large amount. Morpheus found that anyone who can use a crossbow can use the crossbow in his hand to aim and shoot at anytime and anywhere. The "big guy" studied is very different, but when the fired crossbow arrow is attached to elemental power by Freud's circle, its lethality rises linearly. If it is a intensive shot, it can definitely be as high as 100 meters. Ranked enemies cause fatal damage!

Imagine a soldier with more than a thousand people shooting a enemy with a crossbow in the sky. Under the enhanced crossbow arrows, even ordinary angels a or above may have to be shot into the sieve immediately!

This is the best way for mortals to fight against the strong. Powerful weapons can make the weak threat deadly to the strong!

So without much hesitation, he took Ashcandi and Andalil on the road with Hydera. After crossing almost half of the continent, they crossed Constantinople and entered the border of the vast ocean.

At the same time, in the deep sea area southeast of Byzantine, a huge fleet is lining up in the stormy sea.

The number of Byzantine ships has reached an astonishing 72, but it is clear that this storm has caused huge fleets to suffer. Opening new routes will always bear great risks, even if there are well-mapped charts. Road, but the route taken by Sibalice to Winner and Byzantine to Winner is certainly very different-it can even be said that even the Buttigian Royal Fleet with extensive experience ~ IndoMTL.com ~ will also Encountered some unknown dangers due to a fickle ocean.

The violent storm lasted three days and three nights. When the fleet struggled to sail out of this huge wave of sea, it also found that it had deviated from the entire expected route and reached a map that was not marked with a name at all. Sea area.

The sailing people have more or less "superstitions". Unlike the believers who believe in the **** of light, these veteran sailors and captains who have been dealing with the ocean since their ancestors are not interested in heaven and hell. , They have heard about the mysterious seabed legend from small to large...the giant monster living on the seabed, the "mermaid" of the half-human half-fish, or the sea **** holding the trident in ancient Mythical mythology, etc. Wait.

For unfamiliar waters, Captain Pierre, the commander of the fleet, had no choice but to abandon the rescue of 19 large and small cargo ships that were lost due to the storm, and instead immediately sailed towards the originally established waterway-no one knows this area. What will be encountered, "Sea Monster" is not a legend, these officers of Byzantine are very clear that compared with those of the undescripted "Holy Fall", there have been absolutely no definite sightings of the "Sea Monster" destroying ships and devouring humans for hundreds of years. One hundred.

Above the vast sea, the number of fleets suddenly reduced to fifty-three, with the sails paddling and accelerating to the maximum, as if fleeing, but just after traveling for a long time, another fleet appeared in the field of vision.
