The Buchar River, which originates in the Mandy Nile, runs from north to west through the province of Zimbwe and eventually enters the Orc Empire, where it pours into the Haus, a tributary of the Rhine.

Lanches City, one of the wealthiest cities in Zimblewe, is the hub of the Boucale River, which is the main shipping route of Zimblewe, although it is only a tributary of the Mandinile River.

The first rays of the morning sun fall into the Buchar River, and as the waves gradually ripple out, it spreads a bright light. When the purple sun erupted from the surface of the river, the surface of the water seemed to be coated with a layer of brilliant purple-gold skin, which was extremely gorgeous.

"I didn't expect to be able to see this spectacle, but this time I did the right thing to change ships halfway through." Hathaway stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the river, her expression full of joy.

She had set out from the Cordillera on a snowgriff ride, but when she received a piece of information on the way, she slowed down her journey and found a boat to reach Lanches by water.

"It's a pity that this river will soon be stained red with blood." Alia. Forgu pouted.

"What does it matter, the big waves are surging, even if the river is full of blood, there will be times when it will be swept away." It wasn't Hathaway who picked up this sentence, it was Birling. Hegel.

This guy was originally reliving the dream of a female captain at sea, but after hearing that Hathaway was going to lead an army on an expedition, he also ran to Perseus Castle and insisted on protecting Hathaway...... Of course, she also justifiably blackmailed a snowvulture mount.

However, bring Bellin with you. Hegel was not useless, except for her great force value. While upstream, she also assisted Hathaway in forcibly requisitioning a ship to Lancaith City, which had been empty due to the Orc invasion, and there were only cars and boats coming out of Lancais.

Although the sailors of this ship have abandoned ship, under the command of the former pirate commander, the passenger ship has also sailed down the river, and it has been smooth sailing.

"It's not far from Lancais, isn't it?" Hathaway turned her head to look at the lookout hand above.

"Orcs! There's a ship flying the Orc Empire's battle flag! ”

The lookout was played by a special operator of the warn. He didn't answer Hathaway's question head-on. But the alarm came.

Suddenly, the peaceful atmosphere on board was disturbed, and the hurried footsteps of the soldiers were heard.

This time Hathaway came to Lancastes, except for a squadron of Praetorian troops and her retinue. There is also a special combat team of more than 100 people. by Captain Jayfa. Trohn leads.

Hathaway, however, was unhurried. Unleash the Elemental Eye and observe movement on the surface of the river.

With little shelter on the river, she quickly locked onto a ship flying the orc flag. And in front of this ship. An ordinary passenger ship was struggling to sail, but they were sailing against the current, and the sailors who were driving the ship were far less strong than the orcs, the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and those orc warriors had already prepared for a broadside battle, and a dozen wolf soldiers waved their snowy scimitars and let out a piercing scream, obviously threatening the ships in front.

"Huh?"

Hathaway let out a soft sigh, and she noticed that there were some children on the deck of the escaped ship.

If at the current speed of the ship, when they rush over, I am afraid that they can only avenge the people on that ship, even without those children, Hathaway cannot sit idly by and watch the humans being slaughtered by the orcs. Therefore, before the sound fell, there was a thunderclap that shook the sky, and the whole person had already carried the wind and thunder, and suddenly flew out, and in the blink of an eye, he had come to the two ships.

"Magician! It's a magician! ”

"We are saved!"

The sailor on the fleeing ship let out a cry of surprise...... Although they didn't necessarily know much about the mysterious power of magic, they also knew that the mage who could fly was definitely powerful, and more than a dozen small heads poked out of the cabin, but they were pressed back by the arms of some adults, but the sparkling gaze in their eyes showed their curiosity.

In the orc ship, dozens of wolf warriors looked nervously at Hathaway in the air, especially after discovering the flying knight following behind her, all of them showed a look of jealousy in their eyes.

Hathaway had no intention of fighting them in close combat, let alone that the other party would surrender, and just after the two ships had separated themselves slightly, the 'Fire Rain Meteor' magic had been cast.

Call! Call! Call......

Fireballs the size of fists fell from the sky, flashing like stars, and in the blink of an eye, the ship had turned into a fireship.

"Damn humans!"

There was a loud shout from the fireship, and then the flames surged, and a chilling sword light suddenly rose from the sea of fire, and a figure rushed towards Hathaway.

Ruthless General Kassan. Wolf, a famous general of the Orc Empire, was a part of the massacre in Zimbwe. Like other orc generals, the most important thing he did to enter the human realm was to raid, and for orcs living in bitter cold lands, there was nothing more attractive than the possibility of exchanging large amounts of food for their possessions. This time, he led his subordinates and soldiers to sweep the area of the Buchar River in a plundered boat, just to take the opportunity to make a fortune.

Of course, although he was arrogant, he did not dare to attack Lanchees City with a few dozen warriors, so he kept patrolling the perimeter, but he also plundered a few ships, and won quite a bit. The ship he was pursuing also sailed out of Lancais's docks, but Cassan. Wolf thought that those who could escape Lancastes by boat at this time of year were either rich or expensive, so he pursued them closely. But he never expected to meet a magician, and he was also a great magician.

At the time of Hathaway's first appearance, Cassan. Wolf knew that something was wrong, not to mention that he only had fifty people under him, even five hundred, and he was definitely not a great magician's subordinates, and now he was in danger, even if he couldn't kill the other party, he could rush into the river and escape from the water.

"Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder!"

Seeing the wolf warrior who followed behind the sword light with a layer of golden fighting rings shining on his body, Hathaway smiled coldly.

Prosperous!

The sky thunder strikes the top, and it is in the middle of Kasan. Wolf, as soon as he jumped up, fell back into the fire with a faster speed, and never got up again.

In the middle of the day, the screams of the fireship had faded away, and only a crackling sound could be heard coming from the fire, and the air was filled with the smell of burnt wood.

The battle ended in a very short time, and looking at the shock in the eyes of the sailors on the fleeing ship, Hathaway was even slightly intoxicated.

She turned around and landed below deck, Ilona and Alia. Fogu also landed on the deck, following him.

"Where's your captain?" Hathaway asked.

"Dear Magician, I am the captain of the Dawn, Mattie. Sarana, thank you for saving me! A crisp voice rang out, and from behind the sailors came a woman in her twenties, carrying a long sword in her hand, apparently ready for battle. But when she came to Hathaway, she handed the sword to the sailor next to her, and saluted Hathaway respectfully, "What do you call her?" ”

"Captain Charola, I'm Lord Cordillera, Hathaway. Count Bell, on the orders of His Majesty the Eighteenth Emperor, went to support the city of Lancais, do you know the situation in the city of Lancais? Is it still in the hands of the Empire? ”

"Lancastes City is still in Imperial hands. However, I'm afraid it won't last long. "Marty. Sharola replied.

"Why?" Hathaway raised her eyebrows slightly.

"All the people are on the run, the commoners are on the run, the nobles and the rich merchants are on the run, and even the city defense army has a lot of desertion......"

Listened to Marty. Sharola's introduction, Hathaway's brows furrowed slightly, it seems that the situation in Lancastes City is even more severe than the description in the previous intelligence.

"And what's going on with you?" Hathaway asked again.

At this moment's notice, Bilin. Hegel had already taken men to inspect the ship, and besides some sailors, there were seventy or eighty children on board, tended by a few women in their thirties and forties.

"The children on board are all orphans."

Mattie. A flash of tenderness flashed in Sharola's eyes, and she replied, "The orcs have been raiding the northwest for many years, and many families have been displaced, all of them are orphans who have lost their parents and have been adopted by Lady Arinsha. ”

She paused, and then continued: "I am actually an orphan adopted by Madame, and now I can become a captain, which is also the result of Madame's training. I was going to pick up my wife and the children with me, but my wife was seriously ill and couldn't leave her homeland, so I ......"

She sighed softly.

"So Lady Arlinsa is still in Lancastes? Rest assured, if I encounter it, I will take care of it. ”

Hathaway was also very admiring, she glanced at the children who had already run onto the deck, and suddenly asked, "Captain Sharola, where are you going to send the children?" ”

"I ...... Stay away from the flames of war first. "Marty. Sharola was obviously not prepared for this, so she hesitated.

"Miss Sharola, I have a Jianyì."

Hathaway smiled, "I have a school in the Cordillera that specializes in adopting and nurturing orphans, and if you don't mind, you can send the children there." They will receive free treatment, education and training. ”

"This ......" This is still the first time we have met, so Marty. Sharola was still a little hesitant.

Hathaway smiled, of course the other party could not fully trust her, but she didn't have time to delay, and then returned to her boat and ordered the sails to move forward.

Two magic hours later, Lancastes City was already in sight.

But when Hathaway saw the city for the first time, she couldn't help but mutter, "What's wrong?" It's a dead city! (To be continued......)
