Chapter 409: Boarding the ship

The sun is skewed, and the time has come to the afternoon.

Phew-

The girl in the hunting suit slowly landed on the ground with a gust of wind and took off a blue peridot ring on the little finger of her left hand.

Gently shake a simple and elegant silver bracelet on the wrist of his left hand, and the ring has disappeared.

At this time, after using several "gem witchcraft" in a row, she finally shook off the ghoul pursuers behind her.

Click.. Click.. Click..

Take a leisurely step into the seaside port city of Concord, part of the royal colony of Phaletis and the administrative capital of the colony.

As she walked, her appearance, body shape, and even clothes began to change.

The girl, dressed in a pink lady's dress, a gauze hat, high heels, and a small suitcase in her hand, put away all the conspicuous accessories on her body, leaving only the silver bracelet on her slender left wrist.

The precious camouflage prop called "False Face" not only helped her disguise her appearance, adjust her body shape, but even complete a thorough update of her clothes from the inside out.

It is really a must-have for lazy people traveling at home.

At this point, she was like a normal traveler about to take a boat trip, unobtrusive.

"Whew, I'm finally getting rid of it, right?"

Looking at the calm port city, the girl patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Still, she knew it wasn't the time to take things lightly. Although there was no trace of the pursuers anymore, they could catch up at any time as long as they were on land.

They had to leave by boat as soon as possible, and as long as they reached the vast sea, it would not be so easy for them to track them down.

As long as you go south all the way back to Yuanfan Ling, no matter how many pursuers you have, you can't be afraid.

However, when she had just arrived at the port and had not yet bought a ticket to go to sea, she found that a large number of naval soldiers had blocked the port, and she was only allowed to enter and not leave.

"Don't panic, everyone, we have received an order to cooperate with the Ilya Kingdom next door to search for fugitives, and it will not delay you for a long time, please be calm. ”

Beside her, a group of Phaletis soldiers happened to pass by, shouting to the somewhat panicked crowd as they marched in procession.

However, although the allies responded to their requests for the sake of their face, His Excellency the Governor of Kabushel obviously did not want to get too involved in the current troublesome political situation of the Ilia Kingdom.

Who knows if it's a real fugitive or a political enemy of yours?

Soldiers were sent to explain the situation to the people, both to appease them and to inform the so-called "fugitives" that the so-called "fugitives" should run, and that Ilya's men were about to arrive.

As long as you don't do anything on our land, you can go anywhere!

"How can it be so fast?!

I know what kind of abilities ghouls have.

Although the sense of smell can reach sixty times that of humans, the sense of hearing can reach twenty times that of humans.

But I'm on the run... When retreating, I had already used the deodorant necessary for adventurers, and the 'false face' was able to block the smell. ”

Although the girl didn't know how they were sure that they came to Concord, they also understood that this was to cause trouble with a big force, and if they were not careful, they would stab the hornet's nest, leading to an all-round pursuit.

Unless he identifies himself to the governor, the other party will inevitably favor Ilya as an ally, even if it is only an ally who can only maintain a superficial relationship.

And after the blockade of the port, he can no longer leave here by boat as planned.

But if you go land, you will be blocked inexplicably without knowing what the other party is tracking you on.

Thinking of this, the girl couldn't help but guess a possibility, and shook her head in annoyance.

"Could it be that one of these inherently transcendent creatures has awakened a special racial talent? Olivia, you may be in big trouble this time. ”

Originally living in the deserts of the eastern part of the Old World, these humanoid ghouls are based in the desert kingdom of Heymar, and are terrifying cannibal monsters capable of transforming into both human and hyena subordinate forms.

On top of that, they are also intelligent creatures, able to trap humans using stratagems, and may also awaken innate innate spells like wizards or demonic creatures.

For this kind of creature, which is already good at tracking, it is entirely possible to awaken some kind of unreasonable tracking ability, which also makes Olivia a little waxy.

"Do you really have to identify yourself with the Governor and ask for asylum?"

Just when the girl standing on the pier was a little undecided, she suddenly saw three people walking beside her.

A well-dressed middle-aged gentleman and his butler, and a round-faced young man who was about as tall as himself and looked harmless.

However, when the middle-aged gentleman at the head spoke to the round-faced young man with a straight face, the girl Olivia immediately realized that her guess was very wrong.

"Roddy, I won't allow you to do anything wrong in the colonies in my name anymore. Even those indigenous slaves are the property of the kingdom, and alien races are not a reason for you to torture them at will!

Moreover, the maids in the manor are also free people, protected by the laws of the kingdom, and are not objects that you can play with and insult at will.

The Reserve Officer qualification of the Stormhorn is my last support for you, and it is fully worthy of my poor cousin who has gone to the kingdom of the Goddess. ”

Finally, I took a look at my nephew, who was really hard to like, and was still smiling in front of me at this time, the middle-aged gentleman left a sentence:

"Climb aboard yourself, and I hope you will change your mind when you face the Brigadier General, or no one will be able to help you again.

If you are lucky enough to get an official position, you will also have an explanation for the ancestors of your Yarman family. ”

After speaking, he turned around and left without hesitation.

After today, the last love between himself and this nephew will be completely severed.

Hodge Jeremy thinks that he has wiped his ass countless times for him against his principles, and he has arranged a great future, which can be regarded as benevolent.

The round-faced young man Roddy Yarman smiled and took the gift box handed over by the butler, and shouted to his uncle's back:

"Uncle, don't worry, I will come back to repay you after I am promoted and made a fortune through the relationship of that brigadier general.

You must not marry your cousin to anyone else before this!"

As soon as a word came out, even the white-haired butler next to him couldn't help but look sideways at him.

How self-conscious and self-aware does this guy have to be to say such a thing?

Others don't know, how can he, as a housekeeper, not know the nature of this guy?

This round-faced little fat man with a smile on his face who looks harmless to some animals and animals, but his mind is more vicious and lawless than that of a vicious pirate!

After coming to the master's manor, the change of identity produced a psychological rebellion.

At first, he was just a little stubborn, often playing pranks on the servants of the family, and as he grew older, especially after obtaining the qualification of transcendent swordsmanship, he often tried his sword with slaves in the colony.

Despite his young age, he was already notorious among the colonial Atrian slaves.

However, although the colony had laws, there was no protection clause for slaves, and even if someone was killed, they only had to compensate the owner for their losses.

As for the manor maids who have been bullied by him, I don't know how many there are, and they have repeatedly taught them!

Until his master, Mr. Hodge Jeremia, felt that it was impossible to continue like this, and if he let this guy who disregard human life go unchecked, he would inevitably break out sooner or later into a catastrophe that he could not bear.

I just heard that the ship of the kingdom's "naval star" Admiral Aven was going to replenish the crew, so he cheekily sent this guy up, hoping that the navy, which has strict military management, would make him change his mind.

I didn't expect to be thinking about the eldest lady?

The butler shook his head and left him a message:

"Do it yourself. ”

and departed after his master.

They didn't hear it when they were already far away, and the round-faced young man behind them waved goodbye like a good baby muttered in a low voice:

"Phew, if I didn't care about your property, I wouldn't want to give me such an ugly daughter!"

Olivia, who happened to be next to him, heard his words clearly, and couldn't help but turn her head to look at what a strange thing this was?

However, in addition to seeing a fair-faced young man with a good appearance, the girl also saw the entrance to the city in Concord, far from the port.

A group of at least twenty strange men dressed in linen geometric hooded robes, with pale faces and grim temperaments, walked into the city.

Trample.. Trample.. Trample.. Trample..

There was an instant rush in her heart, just as Olivia's brain was spinning and thinking about a way out.

"Ah, beautiful young lady, hello! I'm Roddy Yarman, can you get to know each other?"

But it was the little fat man who saw the girl next to him, who was disguised but still beautiful and generous, and immediately relapsed and came to talk.

Olivia, who was in the urgent situation and was in no mood to deal with him at all, was about to turn around and leave with her suitcase, but heard him continue:

"The one who has just sent me here is my uncle, the owner of the Great Plantation of the Colony of Kabushre, a member of the House of Lords, and a member of the Governor's Council.

I have received the rank of warrant officer and am about to board the battleship Storm Horn to become a naval officer.

In the future, I will also become a big man, and even replace the lucky man who was lucky enough to become a general because of the crown prince's guardian knighthood. ”

Like a courtship rooster, desperately showing off his own feathers, he can't say any of his own merits.

Hearing this, Olivia paused, looked up at the battleship standing out from the crowd docked at the berth of the port, but suddenly had an idea.

To this strange and bad looking, but not very clever fellow:

"Oh, Mr. Roddy, is it? Why do you have time to gossip here when you are going to serve on the ship? Aren't you afraid that the commander will have an opinion of you?"

As he spoke, he flipped his left hand and secretly took out a pure and transparent white crystal from the bracelet.

"Hehe, that ship only arrived today.

My name has already been reported, and the garrison command has also given an order, they have to wait for me, the warrant officer, to get on board anyway, so what does it matter if I go a little late?

Not to mention that with a beautiful lady like you, I don't know if it is convenient for you to have dinner with me? I know a very nice hotel. ”

Roddy didn't notice it and said triumphantly.

"You want to treat me to dinner?"

"Ha, don't get me wrong, I just want to make friends. ”

Pure White Crystal is used for [Malicious Detection].

The luminescence is distinguished by color and intensity, from white (goodwill) to red (malicious).

"Well, lies and malice, the red ones are going to turn black. This guy is really hopeless, and I don't have to have any psychological burden. ”

Olivia didn't bother to talk nonsense with him anymore, and with a flip of her left hand again, the white crystal had been replaced by an opal bracelet.

Shake in front of the youth.

【Sorcery: Lost Heart】

"Okay, I agreed, come with me. ”

Carrying his suitcase and walking to the alley by the port, the round-faced young man followed without hesitation, his eyes slightly sloppy.

The "Gem School" is a collection of jewels with different types of gemstones, which have a variety of magical effects. Gems store the wizard's magic and all the sorcery they know, accumulating over a long period of time in exchange for a split burst.

In a way, it makes the wizards of this school a kind of generalist.

However, witchcraft gems that can be permanently solidified are very rare, and the use of most gemstone witchcraft will deplete the mysterious properties of the gem, and eventually become ordinary gems with no effect, or even shatter directly.

Wizards can only cast spells with "Natal Gems" without depleting gems. It's just that Olivia's "Natal Gem" is a moonstone that is mainly used for spiritual purification, and it doesn't have any combat ability.

So, Miss Moonstone is really rich, but poverty is also really poor, because no amount of money is enough to spend...

A moment later.

Before the ghouls led by the white-haired and blue-eyed youth could search the docks, the round-faced young man Roddy Yarman walked out of the alley alone.

However, compared to just now, it was a change of clothes, a dress of the same style as the brand new warrant officer uniform in the salute. The posture is upright, and the temperament is completely different from that of Fang Cai.

Then, without hesitation, he walked straight to the "Cape Storm" on the berth.
