Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 517: First contact
Chapter 518 First Contact
Lather saw from a distance the battleship Natantin sailing fast towards the harbor.
Honestly, he was a little bit murmured in his heart. Everyone knows the strength of the Silsti dynasty. A capital ship means that at least one high-level talent and a few red-robed mages are in town. There may be several second and third-tier gunboats behind. If this group of people really intends to follow Azure Castle fought a battle, regardless of whether he won or lost, he must suffer if he rushed forward.
But as the seaport defense officer and the baron of the Splittooth family, he couldn't remain indifferent when he received the warning from his men. If the harbour is really looted, he chooses to stand on the sidelines, and the end will not be any better. The dismissal is inevitable. If you say it is not good, you will be expelled from the family because of humiliation and honor. For the Dragonborn, it is no different from death.
So Lassein can only bite the bullet and rush forward.
Maybe people forgot to inform in advance, which led to this misunderstanding.
After all, the disputes between the two countries he had heard were all in the remote sea, and the attack on the port should not fall to him.
The closer you get to the battleship, the closer Rutherin's heart gets to his throat.
Until I saw a dragon jump up from the boat.
Suddenly he let out a breath.
The presence of the dragon descendant proves that the opponent is not coming for the Azure Fort. He couldn't help but complain, why didn't you fly earlier?
The next moment, Ratherin regained the aura of a defense officer and uttered a long scream at the person who came.
"Commercial name!"
"Orina Okan, an adult dragonborn."
The latter roared back—he was actually a woman.
Okan is her family name, and adulthood represents her secular status and ability-this is the same as the color of the robe used by the mage to distinguish the ranks, and the dragonborn tends to be older and stronger.
However, Okan’s family, Rutherin didn’t remember much in his memory.
This shows that the other party's background is not high.
Thinking of this, his heart was completely relieved, "This is the blue castle guard, I order your ship to stop immediately, without permission, you are not allowed to get closer to the harbor!"
"I am not bringing Natattin, but the ambassador of the East." Olena hovered in front of him, "According to the Diplomatic Code, Azure Castle should be treated with corresponding etiquette!"
Ambassador? From the east? Lassein was taken aback for a moment, isn't that a bunch of primitive people?
In all kinds of rumors, Orientals appear as dull, weird, xenophobic, and uncut. His beard and hair seemed like heirlooms, and he would never shave off easily. Wearing a long gown and gown all day long, he was obsessed with the one-third of his own land, and rarely looked beyond the mainland. When the Dragonborn occupies the center of the world and drove the fleet to the end of the sea, they didn't even have a decent fleet. What is even more incredible is that they are not even willing to establish fixed trade routes with Tranquility Sea countries. The few ships that travel between the two places are just scattered personal actions.
In the sea of tranquility, no commerce means poverty and backwardness.
Unexpectedly, such a kingdom would send envoys to the Holy Wing Islands?
Lather couldn't help but get interested, he wanted to see what the messengers of the primitive men would be like.
"In that case, take me to meet with the ambassador."
Under the instructions of the seaport defense officer, the flying shear fleet turned its direction from a diagonal formation to a parallel escort, but the artillery door was still open, and its stalking meant it was self-evident.
Two dragons one after another fell on the stern deck.
Xia Fan is already waiting here.
"This is Rutherin Cracked Tooth, the seaport defense officer." Olena introduced to both sides, "and this is the Eastern Ambassador, Qiguo Archon, Nine Heavenly Thunder Envoy, and His Excellency Xia Fan. "After finishing speaking, she took out two documents and unfolded them in front of Rutherin, "I have been ordered by the Prime Minister to serve as the foreign affairs officer of Qiguo. Therefore, I am solely responsible for the trip of the Eastern Ambassador. The official documents are here. The seal was covered by the Qiguo Monarch. According to the regulations, the seaport should open the channel to the royal capital for him, so please also tell the lord of the Azure Fort that the Baisha needs to enter the inland river."
Lather did not read the document at all.
He is just a defense officer and is not responsible for verifying the authenticity of the messenger's identity. The first thing he saw was Olena Okan who had transformed back into a human form.
Silver hair, gray pupils, small bridge of nose, bright red lips... She is a beauty.
Even though Okan is not a big name, she doesn't see much of the smell of a hillbilly in her body. This is an accidental discovery. You must know that the dragon descendants are inherited by blood, and whether they can become a dragon has nothing to do with ability. In this process, there will inevitably be some crooked melons, or low-minded, vulgar generations.
It seems that I can get in touch with her more in the future.
After admiring Olena's appearance, Lassein turned his attention to the Oriental.
The physique is thin, and the skin tone is light. At first glance, I know that living indoors for a long time is no different from the sneaky wizards. In addition, just like the rumors, the opponent put the long hair on the top of his head, and would rather tie it up with a cloth than shave it off; a long robe is not inferior, but it is not suitable for sailing and fighting.
Thinking of this, he unconsciously raised the corner of his eyes a bit.
But the other party is a messenger after all, and Lassein can only stretch out his hand perfunctorily, "Welcome to the Holy Wing Islands, and may the sun **** Hera illuminate your way."
"Thank you." Xia Fan raised his hand and shook his hand, "I don't know when I can go to the royal capital?"
Oh? I didn't expect this person to speak lingua franca. This made Rutherin change it a little bit more-being able to master a language other than his mother tongue was originally a gesture of outward expansion.
Speaking of which, he found that there were many elves on the ship, and there was a half-beast girl standing beside the ambassador, which was quite unbelievable.
"I can’t answer your question, it’s up to your lord to decide. As long as the document is true, I believe he will meet you soon. But before that, the ship has to undergo a full inspection and I will send soldiers on board. To manage the ship..."
"No, you have no right to do this!"
Latherin didn’t finish speaking, Olena interrupted him.
"Madam, I am responsible for the safety of the seaport. I can exercise my powers wherever there is any safety hazard."
"But this is a ship carrying a foreign affairs ambassador. According to the Diplomatic Code, every inch of the ship is a dominion, which can prohibit anyone from interfering for any reason." The dragon girl stepped forward and approached Rutherin Road. , "As a dragonborn nobleman, you should know that the code itself is a joint contract of the Tranquil Sea countries. Do you want to violate this agreement?"
Damn it, shouldn't this person stand on the side of the Holy Wing Islands and pit him?
As long as Olena does not speak, how could this foreigner named Xia Fan know about the code.
Why did she sincerely protect the interests of the oriental people?
Lather frowned secretly. He didn't have the courage to say that he had violated the law blatantly. It was just that it was a matter of face now, and he didn't want to make concessions in front of the other party.
"You’re right, but that’s a relatively normal diplomatic situation. I have reason to suspect that this ship is not a normal situation—" Rutherin paused and glanced at the whole ship. "One The obvious question is, why do the messengers from the East come here on the battleship of the Kingdom of Natantin?"
Capital ships are usually not for sale~IndoMTL.com~ Even if the mainland Chinese buns are rich, it is impossible to buy the first-class ships of the Empire. Putting such a large ship in the various fleets of the Holy Wing Islands is also a flagship choice that is not allowed to do my part.
"Because this is a trophy." Xia Fan replied with a smile, "If the Natatine Kingdom does not trouble us, I really don't have a good sea ship to come to your country."
"So that's it...wait," Lasse suddenly stared, "What did you say? Trophy!?"
"Yes, Governor Natatatin invaded the Qiguo waters and tried to attack land cities. Unfortunately, he overestimated his strength. Not only did he die on the battlefield, but he also sent several large ships to his door."
This guy... is he singing?
A fleet led by the governor will suffer a big defeat in the primitive East?
Lather suspected that there was a problem with his ears for a while.
He looked at Olena subconsciously, and the latter not only didn't correct it, but instead nodded.
"If you still have doubts, we have another person who can confirm this." Xia Fan clapped his hands, "Captain Film, please tell the defense officer your story."
