Volume 2: The Holy War of Blood Chapter 15: The Island of Fire and Ice (4) Raid
"Feeling better?" Raven handed Nicholas, who was sitting across from him, a cup of hot tea.
"It's a lot better. Nicholas's face was much more soothing than when he first came ashore, "It's torture for me to be on a boat, and I definitely don't want to sit on anything that moves in the water." ”
"You haven't told me that before. Raven laughed, "I never thought someone like you would get seasick. ”
"Do seasickness have to be divided into fixed rules?" Nicholas gave him a blank look, "no matter what kind of person he is, he will have his own problems, which no one else can think of." ”
"Alright, alright, let's take a break with saliva. Raven said, leaning back in his chair. Akureyri is a small city, but all the facilities are very sound, and it didn't take much effort for Raven to find this teahouse diagonally opposite the old Ray Bar.
Nicholas took a sip of hot tea and looked out of the glass: "I don't know how the work of those two is done, they won't let us wait here all the time." ”
"Do you want to get back to the submarine so soon?" Raven couldn't hold back his smile again. "Once you're on the submarine, you're going to feel the bounty of the sea again. ”
Nicholas glared at him, "Believe it or not, if you dare to make such a joke again, I'll let you swim freely in the sea while you're in port." ”
"Really, I don't even make jokes. Raven pouted, "Okay, okay, I'm wrong, can't I? ”
"When I first met you, I thought you were a serious guy. Nicholas looked at Raven and said, "A meticulous person who takes everything seriously, that's your first impression of me." ”
"You say me, when did I become like that?" Raven said, fiddling with his braided hair. "In my tribe, everyone calls me the humorous Raven, how did I get to you and become such a serious person. ”
"It's just a first impression, but it's kind of funny for your people to call you humorous. Nicholas felt his discomfort finally fade completely, and his usual vitality filled his body again.
"Maybe I'll tell you this story in the future. Raven looked out the window and suddenly stood up, "But now it looks like it's time for us to go." ”
Nicholas turned his head to look out the window, and sure enough, Xiao Er and Ye Xiang seemed to have completed their task, and now they had walked out of the door of Lao Lei's Bar.
"So what are you waiting for, let's go. Nicholas drank the last drop of tea from his glass, and then left the teahouse with Raven one after the other.
"The mission is going well, isn't it?" shouted Raven from afar, "I think you're in a good mood, and it looks like everything should be going well." ”
"Well, at least nothing out of the ordinary happened. Shore smiled and nodded at Raven as he stepped forward. "We've got all the stuff and the information, and now it's time to complete our set mission. ”
"Vice-Captain, you seem to have something on your mind. Nicholas looked at Ye Xiang, who was still a little frowning, and asked. "Didn't you say that everything was going well, how do I feel like you still have something to worry about?"
"Shore, I'm very concerned about the man who calls himself Garrot. Ye Xiang, who had been silent, said, "Maybe you didn't feel it carefully so you didn't find it, but I felt an aura from that seemingly lazy and slow man, that kind of majesty that could not be offended, it was like facing a god." ”
"Speaking of which, when I first approached him, the pain that came from my word was really like the legendary Judgment. Shore involuntarily reached out and touched his right arm again, as if the pain had struck again.
"That man is by no means an idle man, at least he hides something from us. Ye Xiang integrated all the doubts in his mind with the details of Garlott's performance at that time, and finally came to this conclusion.
"The most important thing now is not to figure out what the man is covering, but what we have to do at the moment. Shore reminded, "Don't be held back by such minutiae, Ye Xiang." ”
"You're right, this has to be left for later, what matters now is what we have to do. Ye Xiang's brows finally relaxed, although this man's affairs made him care a lot, but the most important thing now is the war related to the fate of this world, and what they are going to do is already an existence that can influence this war.
"Alright, everyone is here. Shore shouted to the three of them, "It's time to get moving, time doesn't allow us to waste it, let's go!"
In the port of Akureyri, the corgi was standing on the deck of the cruise ship, calmly waiting for the order that the Lord would come from at any moment.
"Lord Corgi, how long are we going to wait?" asked one of the demons, impatiently. "Your Excellency has been out for at least an hour, are we just waiting on this ship?"
"Shut your mouth. Corgi's tone did not allow anyone to refute, "The Lord's orders are not allowed to be questioned, he is the one we serve, and any questioning will be regarded as blasphemy against the Lord." ”
"I see. The grumbling demon listened to Corgi's words and resigned. He knew very well in his heart how loyal this deputy to Lord Beelzebub was, and that if he had spoken more, he would probably have died.
"Are you coming?" Corgi smiled as he looked at the black dots in the distance that were getting closer and closer to him, and the adult's doppelganger had already arrived.
The flies from afar landed in the corgi's ears, and Beelzebub's voice rang out: "The time has come, corgi." I'll take care of the humans in the city, and you're responsible for destroying the submarine they're on, and you'll have to trap them here completely, and then annihilate them completely. ”
"Understood, sir. The corgi nodded as he listened to Beelzebub's orders. When the order was finally delivered, he turned his head and gave an order to the envoy who was still complaining just now: "Inform the troops that we are ready to act, the target is the submarine that Team X is on, and completely crush that group of guys!"
On the western shore of the main port of Akureyri, there is a hidden harbor surrounded by layers of reefs. At this time, Jon was standing on the shore watching the Nautilus anchored safely in the harbor.
"It's a rare opportunity to relax. He stretched, "If only you were there." He took out a bottle of wine and a glass from the basket behind him, and shook it at the sea in front of him: "I have brought your favorite flavor, let's try it together." ”
Jon poured himself a glass of wine, then walked to the shore and poured the rest of the bottle into the sea, he raised his glass to the sea and said, "To all the warriors, may their souls always be with us!"
He drank the wine in his glass, and the cold sea breeze blew, but the drunkenness he had just felt dissipated with the wind.
The Nautilus was parked there, and the sailors on board had a rare chance to go ashore, and every one of them wanted to enjoy the holiday, after all, they did not know when the next time they would go ashore.
"A rare moment of rest, Captain. One of the comms soldiers said to Jon, who was sitting on the ground, "Speaking of which, we haven't been ashore in a long time, and we're all suffocating. ”
"How many times have you said don't call me captain, can't you just fix it?" Jon didn't look away, he was still looking at the Nautilus.
"I'm sorry I forgot it again, so I beg your pardon. The Signal Man bowed to Jon and apologized.
"There's no such thing as unforgiving, and I don't mean to blame you. Jon patted the ground and motioned for him to sit down. The Messenger scratched his hair a little shyly, but ended up sitting next to Jon.
"We all miss Captain Seth. The seated communications soldier looked at the Nautilus in Jon's line of sight and sighed. "Although sometimes he has a bad temper and sometimes he is vexatious, he is such a man that we respect!"
"He'll be glad you said that. Jon smiled, "He's a fool, a fool who doesn't even want his life." I've seen all the battles in his life, I've seen his enlightenment, and now that I've inherited his enlightenment, maybe he'll be happy that I've done it. ”
"What's that?" The commencement soldier who was joking suddenly saw that there were many shadows approaching the Nautilus under the sea in the distance, and he exclaimed in disbelief: "Chief of Staff Jon, is there indeed something approaching our submarine, is it an enemy attack?"
Jon also noticed this unusual situation because of the signal soldier's reminder, and he immediately jumped up from the ground and took out the walkie-talkie to give the order: "Attention all Nautilus sailors, we may be attacked by the enemy, please immediately-"
"Boom!" a loud explosion came from the harbor, and the loud sound nearly knocked the two of them to the ground. Looking at the smoke-filled harbor in front of him, Jon clenched the walkie-talkie in his hand tightly.
Is it too late? The enemy attack was successful, he thought to himself. I had thought that anchoring in the hidden harbor of Akureyri would be an effective way to avoid an attack, but now it seems that there are so many holes in this plan, and the enemy may have tracked the Nautilus from the beginning, otherwise they would not have found it so accurately.
"What should we do?" The communications soldier on the side had obviously participated in many battles, so he was only a little flustered at this sight at first, but quickly returned to the rigor of the battle.
"You must all have weapons with you, don't you?" Jon asked him.
"We brought them all. "This is an order given by Captain Seth a long time ago, and any sailor should take care of his weapons when he goes ashore, so that he can avoid being overwhelmed by unexpected situations." ”
"Good. Jon finally had an idea, and he picked up the walkie-talkie again: "Attention all sailors, we have indeed been attacked by the enemy, all sailors immediately report to the port, bring your weapons, we have a tough battle to fight!"
From the wrecked hull of the Nautilus, the corgi was able to clearly see the humans in action on the shore from this vantage point.
"It has been confirmed that the power facilities of this submarine have been paralyzed. An envoy reported to him, "But it doesn't seem like there are any humans on it, so we haven't caught any captives either." ”
"Of course there are no more humans. Corgi looked to the shore and smiled, "All of them are on shore now, and although we have completed the main task, it will not prevent us from getting rid of some small bugs." ”
"Prepare to start attacking the shore!" Corgi gave his own order to the demons who were eager to fight. "It is Satan's will to slaughter all that is left of humanity, so let it go now!"
"Roar, roar!" the demons let out a piercing roar, and they jumped from the Nautilus into the churning water, and launched an attack towards the shore at an alarming speed, a sight that undoubtedly made ordinary people feel terrified.
Jon clenched his fists and gave an order to the sailors who had already gathered: "Don't back down, it's time to get that blood debt back for Captain Seth, build a line of defense now, the courage of the fallen warriors is with us, we will not lose here!"
