"These four are the mercenaries of the 'Journeyer' mercenary group, and this time I was able to hold out on this island until you arrived, and it was all thanks to the help of these four!" Lucia introduced to Hoffman.

"Oh, is it?" Hoffman looked at the four blades and said with a smile: "On behalf of the Longines Empire, the contemptible people have thanked the four of them here for their righteous deeds!"

In the face of the words of a Silver Saint Rank powerhouse, the four Blades said that they did not dare to take it seriously, and put their posture extremely low.

At this moment, Lucia opened her mouth, as if to say something, but after a moment's hesitation, she closed her mouth again.

Lucia's expression of wanting to stop talking fell into Hoffman's eyes, and he immediately asked, "Your Royal Highness, is there anything you want to ask the minister?"

After Lucia hesitated for a moment, she finally asked the doubts in her heart: "Dean Hoffman, why did you behead Vekirafa with a sword just now, instead of capturing him? Now that Vekirafa is dead, isn't there no witness who can testify to the Demon Shark Clan's rebellious intentions?"

"Your Royal Highness Princess, in the South China Sea today, the power of the Demon Shark Clan is too huge, and many Ocean Races have taken refuge in them. If I leave Vekirafa's life alive and use him to prove the Demon Shark Clan's disobedience, then you Merfolk Clan will only be able to completely tear their faces with the Demon Shark Clan and force them to rebel immediately!" Hoffman retracted the smile on his face and said solemnly: "Although the Merfolk Clan is the royal family of the South China Sea, it is an indisputable fact that the power of the Merfolk Clan has been declining over the years. If we take the liberty of starting a war with the Demon Shark Clan under the current circumstances, the Merfolk Clan has little hope of winning! Not to mention that there is also the Tifna Empire in the Western Sea eyeing the Empire! I am sure that as long as a civil war breaks out in our Longines Empire, then the Tiphna Empire will inevitably be involved, and the situation facing the Merfolk Clan will be even more difficult at that time! I don't think your father will want to do anything against the Demon Shark Clan for the time being!"

Lucia thought for a while, and said slowly: "Dean Hoffman, I understand! After returning to the empire this time, I will pretend that nothing happened!"

Hoffman was relieved by Lucia's willingness to forbear, and he nodded with satisfaction.

Now that the matter is over, Hoffman is ready to leave. He asked Lucia, "Your Highness, you have been away from the sea for a long time, will we return to the sea now?"

Lucia looked up at the sky and said, "It's late today, Dean Hoffman, I think we should rest on this island for the night, and leave early tomorrow morning!"

"Your Highness Princess, do you want to stay on this island, can your body stand it?" Hoffman frowned.

Lucia smiled slightly and said, "Dean Hoffman, you don't have to worry! I have a 'water absorption bead' on my body, which can absorb water from the air and nourish my body, so you don't have to worry about my body becoming dehydrated because I have been ashore for too long!"

After speaking, Lucia glanced at the corpses of the cadets of the Cape Town Military Academy who died on the ground to protect her, her face turned sad, and said: "In addition, the cadets who participated in the graduation trial with me this time all died on this island in order to save me, I can't bear to let them expose the corpses on the desert island, and I plan to bury them in water according to the tradition of our sea clan, and this will also take a little time!"

Hoffman pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Well, since the princess has this intention, then we will leave tomorrow morning!"

Seeing that Hoffman agreed to leave tomorrow, Lucia cast her magic and summoned several water giants. Under her command, the water giants went back and forth non-stop, moving the bodies of dozens of Cape Town Military Academy cadets who had died in battle to the seashore and then throwing them into the sea.

Watching the corpses of the students who had been together day and night gradually sinking to the bottom of the sea, the sadness on Lucia's face became even stronger.

She couldn't help but whisper a mournful song to express her condolences for her deceased companions.

By the time Lucia was done with all this, the moon was already high in the sky. Qianqian

The night is deep, the people are quiet, and the sky is full of stars.

Despite the fierce fighting during the day, Blade had no sleep, and he sat alone on the beach, looking up at the sky and admiring the starry sky.

After returning the bodies of her fallen comrades to the sea, Lucia's mood has gradually regained her calm, but she is also not sleepy.

Therefore, when Lucia saw the figure of Blade sitting on the seashore, she went to Blade and sat down, and whispered to him, "Thank you for saving me!

"No thanks!" Blade withdrew his gaze from the starry sky, glanced down at Lucia, and said lightly.

"The starry sky is so beautiful tonight!" Lucia raised her head lightly, stared out of the sky, looked at the twinkling stars, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion!

"You like to look at the stars, too?" asked Lucia, tilting her head to look at the blade.

Blade nodded.

"I heard that Terran sorceress call you Scar, is that your real name?" Lucia asked, staring at the scar on Blade's face, with a hint of curiosity.

"Well, that's my name, I'm Scar Wolf!" replied Blade absentmindedly. He asked himself if he didn't know Lucia very well, so he didn't bother to explain anything to her.

"Scar, Wolfe, that's a strange name!" Lucia frowned slightly, muttering in a low voice, in fact, she didn't think that 'Scar' would be the real name of the werewolf in front of her, but she saw that this werewolf said so, so she had no choice but to ask more about it.

Lucia then asks Blade a number of other questions, most of which are about the history, customs, and culture of the land-based peoples living on the continent of Northumbed. This sea princess of the Longines Empire in the South China Sea obviously has an extremely strong interest in land races.

Blade is infected by Lucia's talkativeness, and he gradually opens up the conversation.

Although he was very curious that Lucia's thirst for knowledge could be so strong, he still gave Lucia the answers he knew.

Under the brilliant starry sky, an orc boy and a sea tribe girl were just blowing the cool sea breeze by the sea, listening to the gentle sound of the waves, and chatting on their knees.

After the two talked about it extensively, they somehow talked about the orc war dance.

Lucia suddenly smiled and asked, "Scar, can you show me your orc war dance?"

The blade was stunned for a moment, and then involuntarily blurted out: "Yes!"
