64. Go to sea
With twenty-four members of the Tempest Mercenary Regiment and six of his employers, Simon, led by the Berserker, crossed the well-guarded passage of the palace guards and embarked on the warship that was about to set sail.
After two days in this seaside city of the Doma Empire, the cargo was already piled up in the entire hold. And from the moment Mo Fei and them boarded the warship, the palace guards of the Doma Empire suddenly arrived and firmly controlled the entire dock. Although there are no restrictions on fishermen going to sea or ashore, people coming and going are under the strictest surveillance.
"Your Majesty, why did you send the palace guards to guard this dock tightly?"
At this time, in the palace of the Doma Empire, the imperial intelligence officer was also sitting, and next to him were the ministers of the empire.
"General Senk, come on!" His Majesty the Emperor of the Doma Empire was actually quite young, and he said with a smile to Senke, the Imperial Intelligence Officer sitting on the side.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Senk stood up, "Your Majesty's palace guards guarding the docks were suggested to Your Majesty by the Lower Officials. ”
"Is something wrong?" "It's the Death Empire's warships docked at that dock, isn't it ......?"
"It's not what everybody thinks. As soon as Senk saw it, he knew that these ministers were wrong, "With the military strength of the Death Empire, if they want to annex us, they only need to send a cavalry team over, but they didn't accept our request to merge into their territory before, and they naturally won't send people to do these things now, so you ministers don't have to worry about it." ”
Senke hurriedly explained: "That's the case, the Empire of Death is our most important and only ally, to put it simply, the current security of our country is completely tied to the Empire of Death, so the ships of the Empire of Death docked at the docks of our empire have always been protected by secret agents sent by our intelligence agencies." ”
"Then what is the purpose of sending the palace guards this time? Does anyone dare to launch an attack on the ships of the Death Empire within the territory of the Empire? If that is the case, they are too despicable. You should immediately send someone to arrest this gang of lawbreakers and sentence them to death. "An Imperial Minister thought that this was the case, and if this kind of thing really happened, it would be really difficult for the Doma Empire to explain to the Empire of Death.
"No, we've done a good job of that. Senk felt a little overwhelmed, when it came to the Empire of Death, everyone had a sense of gratitude, and it was absolutely not allowed to happen if it hurt the only ally of the Empire.
"Then what is the reason for sending the palace guards? The palace guards are the most elite troops in the empire!"
"That's right, our intelligence agency is still the same as before, as soon as the ships of the Death Empire enter our seas, we will send spies to monitor the docks first. But the night before yesterday, the agents reported that there was a man dressed as a magician and an elf girl, and a human girl got on the ship and stayed, and they saw that the berserkers who were with them wanted to kneel to the trio, but were stopped. ”
"They?" the ministers gasped when they heard this. There are not many etiquettes in the Death Empire, no matter what the officials, they all laugh and kneel when they meet, and it is most likely that these proud soldiers of the Death Empire will only do it when they see their most respected emperor, His Majesty.
"General Senk, you won't say they're ......"
"We can't judge this, but according to the description of the messenger we sent to the City of Death in the past, the lord of the City of Death at that time was dressed like this, and there was not much difference in age. ”
"Then it must be His Majesty the Emperor of the Death Empire, but how could they come to our Doma Empire with three people?"
"It's not just three of them, it's not far from them, there's a whole squadron of elven crossbowmen and a berserker death cavalry squad following them, just a little far apart, the three of them don't know. I sent someone to contact them, and they said that it was nothing, just to protect the elven princess, but the elven princess was the lover of their Emperor Majesty, so we judged that the magician was their Emperor Majesty. ”
"That's for sure, but how could they pass through the door and not enter? Could it be that we did something wrong? They don't want to stay in our imperial city?"
"No, according to the people I sent to make contact with these cavalrymen who protect them, Princess Irene is out to play, and they may have done a private business, so they did not alarm us. ”
"That's good, that's good!" the ministers in the hall relieved themselves.
And at this time, on the warship, Erin smiled and said to Mo Fei: "Brother, they should have recognized you, and they have sent so many troops to protect you!"
"I, they may not recognize you, but you, the princess of the elven clan, the high-ranking people of various empires will recognize the service of your elven royal clan. ”
"They all know we're together, so if they recognize me, they can't recognize you!" said Erin with a smile.
"Ignore them, they are doing this now, it doesn't seem to be just protecting us, but in the eyes of those who care, it's different. Fortunately, they only know that you are a member of the royal family of the elves, but they don't know that you are a princess, so I am not afraid that the identity will be found out to them immediately. ”
Mo Fei was right. At this time, looking at the palace guards of the Doma Empire slowly moving away from the shore, Simon and the others also thought that the Doma Empire had sent them to protect Eileen.
The people of the Tempest Mercenary Regiment all ran to the deck, and it was the first time for them to go to sea on such a large ship, so they were not surprised.
The three of Mo Fei also walked up to the deck, and as soon as Simon saw Mo Fei coming up, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Thanks to you this time, otherwise we wouldn't know where we would have to go from the land." ”
"The captain is polite to say this, it is a credit to Erin to be able to get on this boat. Mo Fei laughed.
"Anyway, it's because of the three of you, we've known each other for so long, and I won't say more. ”
"That's it, everyone is in the same team now, that is, brothers who depend on each other for life and death, what do you say?" Mo Fei has regarded himself as a member of the mercenary team since he returned to this mercenary group.
"Yes, since we were in a regiment, we have been brothers who have depended on each other to the death. Simon held Mo Fei's hand tightly, remembering the battle in the forest, everyone did not flinch, and they all stayed by the brothers' side tightly.
"Brother, it's so beautiful. Erin said and jumped, the first time she went out to sea in a boat, and everything she saw was so strange.
Mo Fei didn't follow Erin and the others to the side, but looked at Simon and asked, "Commander, did you ask them anything?"
Simon knew if Murphy was asking if he had asked what the employer was brought. Mo Fei saw the small box that the employer was holding in his arms when they got on the boat.
"They didn't say what they brought, they just said they had brought some gifts to give to their friends in the Wyvern Empire. ”
"I can't figure out what they bring, but I'm sure they're bringing healing stuff. When they entered the cabin, I smelled the scent, but I couldn't remember what it was, only that it was a healing relic. ”
"Could it be that friend of theirs was injured in the Wyvern Empire? Simon asked.
"No, it's definitely not like that!" Mo Fei couldn't figure out what it was for.
"Also, what the Dragon Rock Empire or the Doma Empire has, the Flying Dragon Empire must also have it, so there is no need to send such a small box of things over thousands of miles. Simon couldn't explain it either.
"In this way, the head of the regiment turned around and secretly instructed the brothers to take more precautions, so as not to unknowingly fall into the other party's way. Anyway, it's on the sea now, and you're on the ship suddenly, even if someone tracks it, they can't follow the sea, and when the Wyvern Empire docks, everyone has to cheer up, they can't intercept us at sea, they will definitely attack at the destination. ”
"You're right, it's almost time to reach the Wyvern Empire, I'll tell my brothers to be more careful. ”
When the two of them said this, they didn't have much more to say. Murphy smiled and walked over to Vivien and Eileen's side.
"Brother, everyone else says that you get dizzy when you take a boat, why don't we feel that way?" Erin turned around and hugged Mo Fei's arm.
"It's a small sea boat, we're a big boat, it's very stable. In addition, now that the wind and waves are calm and the ship is not shaking, how can there be seasickness? If there are strong winds and waves, some of us will definitely get seasick. ”
However, the heavens are beautiful, and in the past few days of sailing, except for the sea breeze, there have been no big waves, and everyone can not help but cheer as they look at the coastline that is getting closer and closer, and they are happy to have reached their destination safely.
And at this time, some people are destined to be unhappy, just like the employer and the few retinues he brought with him. They don't have the excitement of arriving safely, but the closer they get to their destination, the longer their faces become.
