"Mr. Baggins!"

Baggins nodded at the plover who jumped out of the boat and patted the latter's shoulder with his hand.

Fang Yu and the boatswain lightly clapped their hands before saying, "Everyone has made a battle plan, let's go, go to the captain's room, let's talk as we go." ”

As he walked forward, he asked about Baggins and Shesta's journey back to the Seven Seas Traveler, and the boatswain told him about what had happened after they had left Gula Harbor.

They left the harbor shortly before Fang Yuan's plan began, making their way back to the Seven Seas Traveler's hideout to meet up with Miss Elf. However, the three of them couldn't drive the Seven Seas Traveler, and they didn't let the ship move again until Fang Yu and the others passed through the elemental layer and Miss Fairy returned to the Seven Seas Traveler.

"Before that, I repaired the opening in the captain's room, but fortunately it didn't hurt at all, I just need to replenish the ship's board."

"It's not too difficult to find you with Miss Tata to show us the way, but we have seen some things on the way, and I'm afraid we have to talk to you." Baggins said as he walked, pinning a short knife behind his back, looking down and frowning, a look of apprehension on his face.

Fang Yu turned his head: "Is it the Shadow Man's fleet?" ”

"You can guess it."

If it was placed on weekdays, Fang Yu would have to be complacent because of this sentence, but at this moment he seemed to be preoccupied: "Let's talk about it, what is the situation?" ”

Baggins nodded, and slowly recounted the situation:

"We have met three opposing fleets in succession, and the number is ...... There are so many of them that we've even seen them teleported through a spatial channel. We deliberately kept our distance and flew close to the low altitude so they didn't notice us.

Their ships had no sails, only thorns sticking out of their sides, but they were fast, at least thirty percent faster than other boats of our size. However, their elemental detection efficiency seems to be very poor, and they can't even detect dozens of miles away. ”

A look of indecision flashed across his face: "Ed...... We've heard legends about those strange black ships. ”

Fang Yu asked rhetorically, "You mean that prophecy?" ”

"Raven prophecy? No, it's not quite the same," Baggins shook his head: "...... It is the legend of the sailors about the deep sea, and there are some old songs among the sailors, which sing about the past time...... The slabs are buried beneath the surface of the sea, the decaying fleet rests in the graves, and when the dead come back to life, the end will come......"

“…… It was about two plagues, two wars, two dark kingdoms, the end of time, the end of everything. ”

He let out a long breath: "I have been to many places, but the legends about the deep sea are the same. I've also heard of those two plagues, one of death brought by the Witch of the Dragon, who ran rampant a century ago, burying countless people under graves. As for the other one, you should have heard about what happened in the empire recently, right? ”

"I've heard it's just a little plague," Sylvid said suddenly, behind Fang Yuan, "I've heard of something happening on the Ottorian border, but such an outbreak occurs every few years in the Empire and even in the Kaurin-Ishurian Alliance. ”

"That's different, the Empire covered it up, and we came back through those places, and everything was like what was described in the book," Baggins replied, "as if it were half a century ago." ”

"You're saying the plague of death has returned?" Sylvid looked at her father's boatswain with some surprise, "Have you told Princess Brian about this?" ”

Baggins nodded: "Her Royal Highness said that she would discuss it with her companions. ”

"That's the elven hero."

"What are you talking about?" Fang Yu looked at the two of them a little confused.

"It has something to do with the Battle of Byrne fourteen years ago," Sylvid replied, looking at him, "The Captain should know the whole story of the Dragon Witch incident, which was full of wars and plagues, and that Kaulin-Ishurian was almost upside down. Thirty years ago, an elf left Evan Quinn to study at Hollitt College, and soon after. In that place, he sensed the fact that in the villages near the Academy, there were always people dying from strange plagues, and everything seemed so similar to the distorted plague of a hundred years ago......"

Fang Plover knew the whole story of the Dragon Witch incident, and Nicol Bolas brought more than just intrigue, division, and war to the land, and under her cover, the dragon worshippers spread the plague throughout the kingdom, which is the famous Plague of Death. However, with the demise of the Dragon Witch, the terrible plague that took countless lives has also vanished.

"The captain must have guessed who it was. That place was Doriphon, another hero of the Elven clan, the master alchemist Kurufen Novelli who had studied there in his youth, and who had since left Hollitt House following the clues of the Plague of the Dead, thus avoiding Dorifin's catastrophe. After Dorifin's destruction, he returned to that place more than once to investigate, but found nothing because of the Dragon's Treasure until after the Battle of Byrne. ”

"Does the Battle of Byrne have anything to do with it?"

"It has something to do with it, Kurufen found out something in that war, the elves suffered heavy losses in the dragon witch plague, and Nicol Bolas will never be allowed to make a comeback, which may be the reason why they joined the war. In fact, not long ago, when the kingdom fought against the Dragon Witch in the North, the elves were also involved," Sylvid looked at Fang Yuan, "This is actually the reason why Princess Brian appears here so often, and why she is so optimistic about you, Captain." ”

Is the elven princess very optimistic about herself? Fang Yu felt that this was indeed the case, and it was not once or twice that he had taken the downwind boat of Her Royal Highness the princess.

Sylvid shook her head: "But I don't know exactly what the elves found in the Battle of Byrne, that war did change a lot of things, my father, His Royal Highness the Prince, was also involved in it to get to the point where it is today." Since then, many things have happened in the kingdom, such as the rebellion of the dark believers in the south, and even the crisis in Istania for the past ten years.

The Dragon Witch Plague, what happened to Doriffin thirty years ago, and the Battle of Byrne, everything is closely linked. Princess Brianne and Sir Roban are called the heroes who saved Kaurin-Ishurian by chance, but there are many things behind it that we don't yet know. ”

"The first plague has already happened, and the Battle of Byrne may be the beginning of those two wars," Baggins began, "The second plague has already begun, and now the decaying fleet has reappeared in this world, and the legend may be being fulfilled that the black ship will bring the end ......of the world."

"Do you believe those prophecies are true?" Fang Yu suddenly asked, "Do you know where those ballads came from, Mr. Baggins?" ”

The boatswain looked at him.

"Those ballads may have come from the time of the Noumerin Elves, just like the Abyssal Sea Slate, from before this era."

It was not strange that there was that fleet sleeping under the sea of clouds, Fang Yu silently thought, this world had fought against them once, and the legendary continent, Asselin, also sank under the abyssal sea with the greenery. But their reappearance does not necessarily lead to the end again.

The old legends are old, but the future is ultimately written by future generations.

Even the gods are just watching from the sidelines—

The silver sails left Aitalia, and the Noumi elves no longer returned to the continent, as if they had disappeared without a trace.

"Do you believe all this?"

Baggins shook his head: "Sailors only trust themselves and their companions. ”

Fang Yu turned around, but Sylvade smiled and replied cleverly, "...... In fact, there are also their captains. ”

That being said, the noble lady's bright eyes with a light smile did not leave him for half a minute.

The Seven Seas Traveler suddenly shook slightly, and Fang Yu put his hand on the side of the ship, looking towards the cloudy sky, the dawn had not yet tore through the deepest night, and the entire southern sky was shrouded in chaotic darkness.

In the surging clouds, a faint purple crack was slowly being torn open, like a huge open mouth.

The communication crystal lit up, and from the middle came the voice of Bai Xue:

"Attention units, a large number of elemental reactions have been detected ahead."

Fang Yu looked at the little starlight that was emerging in the darkness, and in the dark pupils, it was like an abyss reflected.

"Here they are."

……

“…… It will take some time to readjust the seats, but Silver Vislan and Silver Spear have still been able to draw up their hands and agree to cooperate with us. ”

"But now there's chaos in the community, most people don't know what's going on, and posts of questions are crammed into the arbitration section...... All major platforms have received orders, but what to do next, they are still waiting for our instructions. ”

"In principle, the above agreed with the work we carried out, just ......"

"It's just," Su Changfeng looked at the Xingmen Port staff in front of him, "Do you want us to take responsibility for the current situation?" ”

The other party nodded slightly.

Su Changfeng let out a long sigh, as a soldier, it is his duty to obey orders.

And their duty is, after all, to guard this world that belongs to them.

But for now, they are indeed responsible, and they cannot shirk it-

Su Changfeng turned his head, looked at the young man beside him, and said, "I heard that you often write some posts?" ”

The wandering horse managed to look away from the image, staring at the flickering light in the darkness, not real across the screen, but still with a sense of oppression on his face—for he understood what it was.

The desperate struggle between two worlds -

He looked at Su Changfeng with some surprise.

"Write a post for us." Su Changfeng recounted in a calm tone.

"Yes...... Yes, but ......" the wandering horse asked, "Write...... What the? ”

"The war has begun."

Su Changfeng looked at the picture, "But we still need someone to help us tell everyone all this, I believe you can do it well." ”

He looked at the wandering horse with a glint of trust in his eyes: "How? ”

The wandering horse nodded.

Su Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief, he raised his right hand and looked down at the dial on his wrist. The hands on the dial are pointing to the early morning of an ancient country-

At 4:13 a.m. Beijing time, Xingmen Harbor once again passed through the morning and dusk line over the Pacific Ocean, and the bright light swept through the cantilever on one side of the space station, reflecting on the silver-white metal, reflecting the light in a near-vacuum environment, through the glass, refracting the brilliance of the fluorescent light.

……

The light seemed to have dimmed all of a sudden, and the lights went out, leaving only the dull red of the emergency lights.

"Our plan—"

The leader's voice seemed to stop abruptly, and he subconsciously raised his head to glance at it, and the direction board of the emergency passage flashed repeatedly - a large line of words composed of the words "state of emergency" in several official languages of the United Nations.

"The space station has been put in a state of emergency." Someone suddenly whispered.

"They may have sensed something, and we're going to have to do it in advance."

But before the words could be spoken, all of a sudden everyone heard a muffled sound coming from the direction of the airlock, and they all looked in that direction.

With a low whimper, the closed gate suddenly bulged backwards, and the valve above opened directly and floated as if the gravity generator had failed. Then there was a loud bang, and a bright flash of light directly opened the entire gate, and the twisted metal and composite materials cracked like cotton wool in pieces, and flew in.

Several blinding lights shot in from behind the floating smoke and dust, and in the surging airflow, the Stargate Harbor guards wearing power armor swarmed in from behind the door, raised their kinetic weapons, and the red laser beam passed through the smoke and pointed at each of them.

"Hands up, don't move!"

In the midst of the overlapping rebuke of Chinese and English, I saw that the leader suddenly threw the thing in his hand to the ground, and a bright light shot straight ahead.

But a hand had already reached through the door, and at that moment it seemed like an invisible force swept through the room, causing the light to pause halfway, and to see that it was nothing more than a perfectly cut emerald.

Seeing this scene, the leader's expression changed drastically, and his face showed an extremely incredible look, and he almost screamed hysterically: "Why are you ...... It can't be ......"

But a calm and powerful voice overshadowed his: "Fire!" ”

A gunshot rang out, and the man flew straight out.

Then a young face appeared behind everyone, looked coldly at the other people who raised their hands under the aim of the laser beam, and did not dare to move, and said: "The 14th detachment of the special garrison force of Xingmen Port, Zhang Tianmu, according to Article 7, Paragraph 2 of the "Xingmen Declaration", you have been arrested. ”

And at the same moment, the brightly lit BBK headquarters -

In the round office of the A2 building, which is located on the 220th floor of the fourth district of the new Chongming District, the senior executives of the club, who were holding an emergency meeting, looked at the security personnel in the building with a shocked face, and broke into the hall of the conference room with a group of young people.

The other party politely walked past the security guards, came to them, and then opened a document and placed it on the long table.

The young man at the head looked at all of them, and said politely:

"Ministry of State Security, please cooperate with our work."

There was a dead silence.

The moderator of the meeting looked silently at the others before nodding slightly.

He sighed and spoke in a somewhat hoarse voice:

"Adjourn for now, everyone."

The same scene -

It's happening in many places at the same time.

……

"Now there is an important news that China's Ministry of State Security recently sealed off the headquarters of the Star Gate Super Sports League, and activated Article 7, Paragraph 14 of the Emergency Code of the Star Gate Declaration, and issued an order to all league-affiliated clubs to transfer control of their guilds under the state of emergency."

"Behind me is the Division 3 league headquarters, and you see that SWAT is pulling up a cordon, and it's not clear what's going on. Article 7(14) of the Code of Emergencies, commonly referred to as the Stars Gate Declaration, is the first time in history that it has been activated, although Beijing has not yet given a clear explanation. ”

"Oh, wait a minute," the reporter suddenly raised his hand, "I just got the news that not long ago, Russia also closed the headquarters of the Super Athletic League in its territory. A number of countries in Europe have followed suit, but none of them have taken a position on this. ”

"Please pay attention to our follow-up report, this is CNN correspondent Li Qiming, who is broadcasting to you in Shanghai, China."

"A sinister Yankee." Wearing thick insulated gloves and holding a baking tray in one hand, Quelod looked at the scene and shook his head contemptuously.

"Quelod."

"I don't mean you, dear." Quelod looked at the lady beside him and handed over the baking tray in his hand.

"I know, and besides, I'm not American, I'm Irish." Scarpe picked up a biscuit, took a bite, and smiled: "It's baked well, it's a big improvement from before." ”

"If you like it, it's not my handiwork." Quelod smiled and replied.

"Let me guess, little Elsa?"

Quelod nodded.

However, he restrained his smile, looked at the fluorescent screen in the dark, and said, "It looks like something happened to the Star Gate." ”

"You're worried about the little one?" As soon as Scapet saw his expression, he understood what his lover and partner was thinking: "No, you don't have to worry about him, I've asked the head of the regiment to protect him." ”

"Commander?" Quelod was slightly stunned: "Commander, he will listen to you and care about that little guy, isn't he ......?" ”

Scapet sighed faintly, "There is something I haven't told you about the little one. ”

Quelod looked at his girlfriend with some surprise.

Ed ...... No, he's actually called Fang Yuan...... He should be a traveler and the son of the morning dew. ”

……

In the captain's room, Attila was checking the Frog up and down until the latter made sure that he was not too seriously injured before letting it go.

Then she looked at Sylvid on the side, and Miss Ship Officer quickly raised her hands and shook her head, "I'm okay too, Miss Attila." ”

"Really?"

Miss Elf looked at the two with a little suspicion, suspecting that they had teamed up to deceive herself.

"It's true," Miss Ship Officer smiled bitterly rarely, in her opinion, this elf lady was good at everything, dignified and steady, and was a rare normal person on the ship.

It's just that once Fang Yu is involved, it is inevitable that she will be concerned about convenience - but this also has a relationship with her, if she hadn't brought the other party's younger brother under the deep sea, it wouldn't have happened after that.

For this, Sylvid has actually been a little guilty in her heart.

But I didn't expect Attila to love the house and Wu, except for their captain, and even cared about her.

This gave her a bit of a headache at one point.

"That's not what you told me about this plan when you left the Seven Seas Traveler," but Attila looked at the others and said quietly, "Such a risky plan, even if Red is in this place, he won't easily agree to it." ”

As she spoke, she looked at Sky Blue and Ji Ta on the side, and the two little girls were so frightened that they moved a step to the side in unison, and Sky Blue stammered and replied, "I didn't do anything, Sister Attila, it's all the regiment leader's plan." ”

Kita also said softly: "Parker and Sister Alyssa will be fine, Sister Atira, Parker has always been very alert, and Miss Alyssa is also a measured person. ”

Miss Elf was silent for a moment, then she hummed softly and nodded.

For a while, everyone in the captain's room breathed a sigh of relief, although the nominal captain was Fang Yuan, but in addition to the big cat man, this elf lady was the guardian of the Seven Seas Brigade in the true sense.

Even Fang Yu was as well-behaved as a kitten in front of the other side, not to mention the others.

Baggins watched the scene with a bit of amusement, the ship needed seasoned veterans to guide these newcomers, and Miss Elf was undoubtedly the best character.

He has a good relationship with the big cat people, and he doesn't mind seeing these young people get a little frustrated.

And at this time, Bai Xue was throwing a bust from the projection crystal, looking at this scene with a little curiosity, she had rarely seen a team formed by the aborigines and the electors-

The aborigines and the elect are at odds with each other, but in many places there is conflict. Of course, there are some aboriginal members within Silver Vislan, but that is a rare situation, and the idea of Silver Vislan has always been something they are proud of.

However, the atmosphere inside this small group is quite harmonious now, and there is no barrier between the aborigines and the electees.

Her gaze fell on Miss Elf, and then looked at Sylvide, although she had some guesses about Fang Yuan's relationship with the other party, she was still a little surprised in her heart.

The love affair between the aborigines and the Electors, that is a legendary relationship......

However, Bai Xue doesn't have a boyfriend herself, and she is just a thin-skinned little girl, so she is embarrassed to be cheeky to ask about this topic. She only waited until the atmosphere eased down before pointing to the ball of light flying above Fang Yuan's head and asked, "What is that?" ”

"Ah, this is Xiaoguang," Fang Yu was being trained by Miss Atila, wishing that someone would come to save him from the sea of suffering, and for a while he saw that the knight lady was cordial, "Let me introduce it to you, it is on our ship...... Eh, mascot? ”

To be honest, he doesn't know why Xiaoguang is always closer to him. As long as you are on the boat, this little thing will not leave you.

"What about this?"

Snow pointed to the horned lizard crawling around on the table, and Nini, who was fighting the cow.

"It's a horned lizard," replied Fang Ou, "it's called Little Horn, and it's a pet on the ship, and as for this...... This is ......" He really didn't know how to introduce Fang Nini.

Tianlan on the side listened to Fang Yuan's answer and rolled her eyes flexibly, she didn't believe that horned lizards could breathe fire, but unfortunately everyone didn't believe what she said.

However, Nini was not shy at all, and when she heard Fang Yu calling herself, she raised her head and raised her small chest and responded in a milky voice: "Papa!" ”

"Papa?" Bai Xue looked strange: "This is your daughter?" ”

"No, no," Fang Yu hurriedly waved his hand, "She's Tata's sister." ”

"Sister?" Bai Xue was taken aback: "Twin dragon souls? ”

Fang Yu scratched his head, and he didn't know how to explain this matter, but twin dragon souls were better than two dragon souls, so he had no choice but to nod.

There is no way to let Bai Xue see Nini, the public channel of the fleet is always in communication, and when the other party projectes it, it is too late for Nini to hide.

Bai Xue gave him a strange look and said, "There are really a lot of strange things on your ship, and so is your Miss Dragon Soul, I really want to hear from you about their origins and the identity of your dragon knight when I have time." As for now, the big war is coming, and I don't have time to gossip with you, so I'm here to remind you of the ......."

"Wake up?" Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, the shadow man's fleet was outside, and they were about to meet the enemy in about half an hour. But the battle plan has long been discussed, what else is there to remind?

Bai Xue showed a wicked smile in her eyes, and said a little mysteriously, "Do you have a makeup artist on the ship?" ”

"Huh?"

However, Miss Knight did not give him a chance to ask, winked at him, and said with a wicked smile: "No, it doesn't matter, you can come to our ship to borrow one, remember to put on a good makeup for yourself later." ”

With that, she turned off the comms.

What and what? Fang Yu looked at the others with a confused expression, makeup? What kind of makeup to wear? Could this also be part of the battle plan?

But what he didn't know was that when Snow finished the communication, his expression became serious, and he walked off the bridge and out the door.

The knight nodded to the people who were already there, and said, "You can start." ”

"Stand 1 is in a state of readiness."

The herald immediately raised his hand.

The men below pushed a huge crystal on the deck and aimed it at the two fleets that were slowly approaching over Charter City.

And the same scene, which is happening at this moment in the spear of the silver forest, happened on many windboats of the Jeffrey Redcoats, only to see dozens of scenes, and suddenly appeared in the community at the same moment, in countless different live broadcast rooms.

Within different frames, from different perspectives, the three fleets belonging to the Silver Spear, Silver Vislan, and Jeffrey Redcoats are slowly turning.

Under the gaze of countless eyes, as many as a hundred floating ships, at this moment, a huge horizontal formation was formed in the sky above Charter City.

The dense cannon doors opened one by one.

The wandering horse raised his head, silently glanced at the scroll unfolding in front of his eyes, put his hands on the keyboard, and typed out the first line of text:

"Scourge, with our world—"

……
