When Keppel was about to lose the iceberg platform, he immediately retreated from the front line of the firefight to the cruise ship. He knew what to do as a commander of an army, and fighting with soldiers would only make the situation worse.

Entering the bridge of the cruise ship, Keppel still maintained the steadiness of the commander, he saluted Eliza and said worriedly: "Madam...... The guards inside the portal are stronger than we estimated, these must be the elite hellish army of the ancient magic era, and our current forces can only temporarily seal them inside the iceberg, and if we want to destroy them and attack the portal, we need to wait for reinforcements to arrive.

This time I made a mistake by underestimating the enemy, and I will continue to command the battle against the ancient ruins guards here.

But this place is really very dangerous, please retreat to safety immediately. ”

Eliza didn't move, she looked at the iceberg battlefield that was fighting fiercely. The warriors of Hell have taken full control of the entire iceberg, using magic to protect themselves and the iceberg, and then using magic to attack the Silver Wings and airships above.

The Scarab Corporation's Silver Wing is using his aerial mobility to dodge the Hell's Army's long-range fire while firing at the enemies below with his alchemy rifle. One of the three airships had been shot down, and their large, fragile bodies were too much to beat. Looking at their companions, who were wrapped in flames and fell in the continuous explosion of ammunition, the other two airships scrambled to escape range before the fireball could form a barrage.

The airship's fire support was greatly reduced, and the Silver Wing began to break down.

If this continues, these Silver Wings will definitely be wiped out.

Eliza asked Keppel, "How are you going to fight this fight?" ”

Keppel immediately replied: "Hell creatures generally have a high affinity for fire magic, and in an environment with a high water element, the combat power of hell creatures will be greatly reduced. The battlefield of this battle is at sea, and it is the most unfavorable combat environment for infernal creatures.

When Madame reaches safety, I'll get all of the Silver Wings out and let our fleet bombard the icebergs with naval guns out of enemy magic range.

The ammunition on our ships is abundant, and the hellish mages are certainly not as fast as we can destroy the icebergs. As soon as we blow up the iceberg, these infernal creatures will all fall into the sea.

We can retake this side of the portal and wait for reinforcements to arrive before we think about attacking it. ”

Eliza did not know much about military command, and she thought that what Keppel said was feasible, so she said: "You are the commander of this war, so do what you want."

I'll retreat to the rear and wait for your news.

But I'll only give you three days...... In three days, no matter what method you use, I must completely occupy this ancient ruin. ”

"Yes, ma'am!"

Eliza did not influence Keppel to direct the battle here, and she boarded the aircraft and left the ship. However, Eliza did not retreat to the rear, but drove the aircraft straight into the sky.

When it came, the radar on the aircraft shone into the airspace 10,000 meters above, and there was a very large flying object. Then Eliza recognized that it was an airship, the same airship that Young Master Liang had invited her to meet last time.

Eliza didn't expect that Young Master Liang was on this sea area, so the discovery of the portal must have been known to him.

This is also the reason why Eliza asked Keppel to settle the battle for three days.

Although the Scarab Company and the Black Fire Company reached an agreement, the Scarab Company offered the Scarab Company a one-month priority for the development of the ancient ruins on the condition that it would not interfere in the struggle of Marcellus. But contracts are sometimes used to tear up. If the Blackfire Company thinks that this ancient relic has a higher value than they thought, then it is very likely that they will break their promise and come to rob it.

The Scarab Company can't fight on two fronts, so it's up to Blackfire to take control of this ancient relic before it's determined to take it.

This time, Eliza took the initiative to see Young Master Liang in order to test the attitude of the Black Fire Company.

Eliza's flying machine was not attacked, and it came to a stop on the upper platform of the airship. This time, Da Liang did not entertain Eliza in the open air, but sent someone to put her in a special reception room.

The white style room uses a lot of glass walls, so that the people inside can clearly see the scenery in the sky, and do not need to expose themselves to the high-altitude, low-pressure and low-temperature environment, which is countless times better than the treatment of Eliza last time.

The corners and tables of the room are filled with bright green plants and blooming flowers, and a round glass coffee table sits between two soft sofas. Da Liang sat on one of the sofas, holding a glass of fruit milk in his hand.

After Eliza came in, she didn't wait for Da Liang to open her mouth and invite her to sit down, so she asked, "Young Master Liang...... Why are you here? It's still early in the time we agreed, and you're distracting us by putting such a big airship here.

This is already a violation of the agreement between us.

For a month, I don't want to see any property belonging to the Black Fire Company appear within a thousand kilometers of this sea area. ”

Da Liang looked outside first. Eliza's flying machine stopped not far away, its shape is like a fat-headed fish, with a big head and a long body, pursuing carrying capacity and driving comfort, a few wings that are much smaller than the body, the role is obviously not to provide lift for the body, but to improve the stability when flying in the atmosphere.

I really want to take it apart and study it.

Da Liang pressed down on his greedy thoughts, he turned his head to look at Eliza with an angry face, and said with a smile: "Lady Eliza, our agreement does not include restricting the scope of activities of the Black Fire Company.

I am a very trustworthy person.

My men have not taken any action since your expedition discovered the portal, so don't frame me for breaking the agreement between us.

I said that if you don't do it for a month, you will never do it. As for the effects on you, that's your own business.

Sit back and have a drink......

If you don't worry about me, you can also stay here. I promise, you'll be safer than anywhere else. ”

Eliza sat down across from Da Liang and looked at the red wine poured by the maid, but she did not touch the glass. She wasn't really angry, and she certainly didn't expect the Black Fire Company to really not enter within a thousand kilometers of the portal.

"Thank you, Young Master Liang, for the invitation...... I would very much like to stay here. It's so close to the portal of the ancient ruins, so I can get a good idea of what's going on there. If convenient, please give me and my attendants a separate room, and allow me to come and go freely. ”

Eliza was not polite to Da Liang and immediately agreed to stay on the airship.
