Chapter 810: Picking Up Another Runaway
Xu Yichen only stayed in Storm's Rest for a few hours, except for preliminary communication with Guo Yunfeng, mainly for the pirate Will, the leading party.
Now, on the deck of the 100-year-old oak of the Laughing Craftsman, two men were lying side by side on the porthole vomiting.
As a pirate, it was a shame for Will to be able to stun an airship, but his presence made Ciria relax a lot.
"Take it easy, don't dirty the deck here, the captain will be upset." With Xu Yichen's words, the captain in a black military uniform nodded in agreement.
"yes, if he dares to do that, I'll let him clean the deck with his tongue." The captain put his hands behind his back and read the parameters on the pressure gauge, and the monsoon data of the Far South Continent was blank for the loess region, which made the captain of the Xiaojiang very stressed.
For an airship, the ubiquitous wind in the sky is the worst enemy, and nearly a third of all airships built in the Loess District are destroyed by sudden gales.
"I'm afraid of heights, not seasickness!" The pirate Will leaned against the wall with his legs limp: "I never thought that one day I would be able to fly on a flying ship!" β
Taking advantage of the fact that the others were not paying attention, Ciria quietly wiped off her soiled deck with her sleeve, and the girl looked a little nervous in the face of the Seris in a standard military uniform.
"If all goes well, we'll be in Antony Harbour nine hours later as planned, almost at half past twelve p.m. local time." The captain glanced at his pocket watch and said to Xu Yichen: "Today's wind speed is very low, it will not affect our speed, if you want, you can rest in my lounge for a while." β
The interior cabins of the Laughing Craftsman were acceptable, but each of the alchemists had to have their own private room for meditation, so they had to sacrifice the living space of the others, and only the captain had his own room and a small bed of his own.
The rest of the staff can only share a bed with two people, and the rest time is staggered in the form of shift shifts.
"I don't need to rest, I love being on deck, I haven't been flying in the sky in a while." Xu Yichen is telling the truth, he really likes to stay on the deck, I don't know who designed the deck of the Laughing Craftsman, in the back half of the deck there is a five-square-meter transparent glass, which can directly see the Black Forest below.
This design is very convenient for people on the airship to observe the scenery directly below them, but it is also very unfriendly to those who have a fear of heights.
Will the pirate had been standing on the ground, trying to stay away from the observation window, but his noodle legs were a little disobedient.
The Laughing Craftsman swept over the Black Forest like a dragon, and all the wild animals in the forest where it passed were honestly lying on the ground and did not dare to move, the size of the desolate giant beast and the breath of the celestial whale made these animals who had never seen the world panic.
In this case, a figure riding a white horse through the forest stands out.
Paladin Severn escaped from Wangxiang City with the expeditionary force, as a believer in the god of war, although he is a novice, he also knows that he looks different from the Seris, and his clothes are similar to those of the expeditionary force, not to mention that he is still a real holy warrior.
Severn didn't dare to bet on whether the Seris, who had been killing since landing at the port, would be able to distinguish between the paladins of the Lord of Dawn and the paladins of Campas, the god of war, but he felt that he was more likely to be killed directly.
So he left, and he planned to return to the Great Port of Antony, and tell the Reverend Richard what had happened here.
Lord Richard had given him the task of giving the Demon Hunters a wake-up call, but Severn failed, and he failed to deliver the news to the Demon Hunters in time, and the expeditionary force moved faster than they thought.
And now, the paladin Severn felt a little lost, he didn't know if the god of war Kampas would appreciate the war of those Seris, but he could sense a completely different aesthetics of war from it.
Although there is no picture of swords intertwined and heroes sympathizing with each other, the collision of steel and flame, the interweaving of discipline and tactics, makes Severn feel that this is very 'war'.
He rode his celestial companion all the way, thinking about how he could tell Lord Richard about the scene of the day and the current situation.
I'm afraid that even Lord Richard himself did not expect that things would come to this point, and the famous Paladin Expeditionary Force was defeated like worms by the Seris.
In this case, if anyone knew that he had been tipped off by Lord Richard's order to report to the Serisians, I am afraid that the whole church would be shaken.
He feared that someone would take this opportunity to trouble Lord Richard, and he had to return to Port Anthony as soon as possible to prepare Lord Richard.
"Man, I know you're tired and hungry, and so am I, but I know you can, and we have to hurry!" The holy warrior Saiwen skillfully controlled the Celestial War Horse, dodging one tree after another: "When you arrive at Anthony Grand Harbor, I will invite you to eat the best beans!" β
The Celestial War Horse snorted, slowed down a little uneasily, and kept looking left and right, as if he had found something.
That oppressive feeling, the Holy Samurai Saiwen also felt, and it seemed that the whole sky had darkened.
He subconsciously looked up, and a huge eerie smiling face was looking down at him, and that smile was full of contempt and mockery, just staring at it made people feel dizzy.
This must be the power of the evil gods!
The holy warrior Severn had a firm belief and immediately drew his sword, although he knew that it was pointless to face such a huge enemy, but the messenger of the god of war could die in battle, but he would not be afraid!
"Campas gives me strength, I am a believer in the god of war, and I will ......" Paladin Severn's impassioned pre-battle prayer was interrupted before it reached its climax.
"Severn? Is that you? Do you want to hitchhike? The demon hunter climbed a rope and slowly descended from the sky and said to the paladin, "I am on my way to Antony's great port, and we will stop by the way." β
"I am... Inevitable... Whatβ" The young paladin's tongue was knotted, and he was almost bitten by his own teeth.
"Why are you here?" Xu Yichen fell lightly to the ground and handed another rope to the holy warrior: "Let's go up first, I didn't give the order to stop." β
The Paladin Severn was pulled aboard the thief ship, and he had been thinking about how to answer the Demon Hunter's question as he ascended.
Why the hell am I here? Because I tried so hard to warn you that the expeditionary force was going to trouble you, but I was late, just in time for you to beat the expeditionary force, I felt a little embarrassed by the scene, so I quietly set out on the way home.
That's right, that's it, believe it or not, I believe it anyway.
