Volume 1 The Land of the Dead Chapter 94 The Main Control Room
"Come out, don't hide there, is it my dad who taught you to hide?"
Maintaining the temperament of a superior person, Roger determined from his perception that the aura was still in place, and pretended to say, "Or do you think I ...... Oh, what the hell is this!!"
Roger turned around pretending to be a 'ghost' floating behind him, and Roger's hard-working image of a master collapsed instantly, you know, although this guy has lived in the necromantic underworld for seven or eight years, but this thing has a fatal weakness, fear of ghosts.
What we are talking about here is not a physical 'ghost' like an undead or an evil spirit, but an illusory ghost like a ghost or a banshee, you can hardly imagine that a guy who has lived for nearly 10,000 years and whose strength has reached the holy realm will be afraid of ghosts, this may be the old problem left by Roger on the earth before he crossed, in short, it is always right to say what is not accurate, it comes down to metaphysics.
Therefore, when Roger turned around and saw such a 'ghost' behind him, he was taken aback, if it wasn't for the slow reaction of this thing, so that he could see that the 'ghost' was strange, this guy would have run away at this time.
The 'ghost' looked startled by Roger's sudden turn, and the hazy form blurred for a moment, and then gradually cleared up, clearly the image of a young man with a delicate face.
The young man hesitated for a few seconds, but still leaned in front of Roger, first stroked his chest and gave a standard knightly salute before saying: "Lord Roger, I am Thales, the captain of the reserve of the Black Knights, and Instructor Gilson asked me to take you to the main control room of the Aujin after you have arranged it." ”
"Illusion? no, there are no magic fluctuations, wait a minute...... I'll go, isn't this a holographic projection? Where did this daddy find out the black technology?!
Although I was so frightened by the ghost that I almost ran away for the first time, the cheekiness of this product is also first-class, and I don't blush at all when I know that I am embarrassed.
Quickly pretended to cough twice, Roger changed to the expression that was dedicated to talking about business, and pretended to say: "Ahem, Xiaotai, don't stand behind the leader next time, it's very dangerous, okay, lead the way in front." ”
Although he wondered what this 'little Tay' was called, Thales still waved his hand honestly and motioned for Roger to follow him.
After walking like this for a while, about two or three cabins, Roger finally couldn't help it anymore and said, "Little Tai. ”
"Hmm, Mistress Roger, what's your problem?" Thales immediately stood up and responded with a bright smile.
I said...... Can you not lead the way with your face to me, floating off the ground with your feet off the ground, it looks terrifying!" Roger couldn't stop when he opened his soul, "Even if it doesn't scare me, it's not good to scare children." ”
"Children, how can there be children here?" Thales, who was in the main control room, obviously couldn't understand Roger's cold joke, his eyes looked through the strange mask that looked like a brass texture on his face, stared at the top view of the corridor on the monitor for a few moments, and made sure that there was no one else except for the small light spot that symbolized Roger, before continuing, "Instructor Gilson told us that it is basic politeness to talk to people and look at people. ”
"Politeness isn't used in this kind of place!"
Roger had never been able to do anything about this stunned guy, he could only order with a straight face, "Turn around, don't let your image float!"
"Understood. ”
Hurriedly flicking the lines on the mask on his face, with the sliding of Thales' fingertips, the patterns on the mask lit up in turn, and then, the image he appeared in front of Roger turned his body stiffly, as if someone was twisting him like a screw on the top of his head, and Roger was in a cold sweat again.
"Lord Roger, are you feeling better this time?" Thales said to Roger with the back of his head this time.
Although this looks even more strange, Roger's perception is indeed a lot better, although his heart is still hairy, but it is not unacceptable.
"Alright, almost, let's lead the way. Roger urged.
Thales in the main control room answered, and then continued to slide the pattern on the mask, controlling his holographic projection to lead Roger towards the main control room.
The Aujin wasn't big, about a lap smaller than the sunken Suzuka, but it needed to accommodate devices such as magical power plants, navigation systems, detection systems, communication clusters, high-energy magic countermeasures, life-saving equipment, and living facilities in a limited space, which made its passage seem winding, and it took a while for Thales' projection to take Roger to the main control room.
"Whew~"
Thales took off his mask and breathed a sigh of relief, the pressure brought to him by manipulating this mask for a long time was too great, not that the use of the mask itself brought him mental burden, but that it was too embarrassing to draw flowers on his face in front of his companions.
Seeing the holographic projection in front of him disappear through the door, Roger was relieved of pressure and returned to his hanging-up appearance.
Seeing the pirates sitting in two rows in the main control room focusing on him, except for a few new faces, all of them were 'old acquaintances' on the deck, including Ada, who had a blue nose and swollen face from the previous cold, and snuggled up in the chair, Roger smiled and said hello: "Yo, it's all there. ”
To be honest, Roger's tone was no different from that of an old man who had just gone out for a walk after he was full.
"You kid, you don't have a proper shape all day long, and I'll clean you up when I get back. ”
Complaining and complaining, Gilson, who was sitting in the first place, still shook his head and stood up, strode to Roger's side, put one arm around his shoulder, and said to a room of pirates: "Boys, I remember telling you on the first day I taught you that your ancestors belonged to a warband that was once extremely glorious, and you were the warriors of the warband's reserves.
However, I didn't tell you the name of the warband at the time, and it's not too late to explain that you belong to the Black Armor Knights of the Aojin Empire.
At the same time, you may be a soldier in the warband reserve for the rest of your life, because I am only your instructor, and your commander is someone else. ”
"I also remember saying this to your fathers, and to your grandparents, but alas, they didn't wait for the day when the warband commander returned.
And now, you boys are the luckiest of all, because the supreme commander of your Black Armored Knights, Lord Hunt, has returned. ”
With that, Gilson patted Roger on the shoulder, who picked up the conversation knowingly.
"I think most of you know me, after all, we had a not very pleasant exchange just now, but what do you think, for the sake of the few children who haven't been on the Suzuka before, I still need to formally introduce myself. ”
Roger propped his arms on the table, crossed his fingers under his nose, and put his fingers under his nose, in a classic posture of Commander Ikati, although he didn't feel it, but the idea of this guy in the pirates' minds was "calm and scary" at this time, but at the same time there was a very reliable feeling, if you add a pair of reflective glasses, this bluffing buff may be more stable. (EVA Terrier)
"My name is Hunter, and I'm Roger, you can call me whatever you want, as for Lord or something, it's just a name, don't care. ”
"I think many people have doubts, what qualifications does such a young guy have to be our commander, for this, students who are not clear can consult the classmates who have been on the boat, and if you have doubts, we can talk privately. ”
Seeing the appearance of his companions beside him, Thales, who had a good first impression of Roger, was a little puzzled, but he still decided to keep his ears open and continue listening.
"There are still people who may have doubts about what I said on the deck, it doesn't matter, there will be more opportunities for communication in the future, you should be glad that your instructors are not interested in making waves on the mainland, otherwise your hard days will come." ”
Seeing Roger's white fangs, although he didn't know what Roger meant by 'hard days', the pirates present still couldn't help but shudder.
"Okay, that's all I want to say, if there are any more problems, let's talk about it when we go back to Alexia, and then we will hold a conference for you to have a good ideological and political education...... Woo, Daddy, let me finish. ”
As soon as he heard Roger's mouth start to purse out of tune again, Gilson, who had just shown a little relief on his face, instantly lowered his face, grabbed Roger's shoulder and pressed his head on the table, so that Roger's face had an intimate contact with the table.
Ignoring Roger's indiscriminate waving arms, Gilson said to the boys and girls in the main control room with a straight face: "As you can see, your future commander is such a person, okay, let's dismiss the meeting." ”
Because of Roger's tricks, the meeting came to an abrupt end, and the pirates present looked at each other, but they still left one by one in an orderly manner, and Gilson and his son were left in the main control room.
"Huh, Dad, you're still so ruthless, don't you feel a little touched by a reunion after a long absence?" Touching his reddened forehead, Roger slumped into the chair and began to complain.
"Don't play with you in Alexia, they're good boys. After a long silence, Gilson pressed his fingers on the table, answering the question as he should have been.
Roger stared at the crystal plates and said softly, "Okay, I'll try my best." ”
