Chapter 421: Set Sail
Their enthusiasm for wanting to leave the island is beyond Jonny's imagination. The Earl had arranged for people to leave here and go to a safer continent before, but except for the first few times, they all failed.
Even if it was only a short voyage, many of the giant sea beasts among the Black Sea Clan were wandering in the waters of that strait because they couldn't go ashore.
Jonny also had to take into account the feelings of Lord Earl and Rear Admiral, and it was good to let everyone leave safely, but this place could not be handed over to those Black Sea Clan for nothing.
Now that the situation has changed a little, they see a new hope of victory on this island, and naturally they can't give up. Those people were not forcibly requisitioned before, firstly because their own combat effectiveness was not strong, and secondly, because there were not enough weapons.
You can't let them die with their bare hands, the people with the highest status are not ruthless to that extent.
So the subtle changes in the situation now have also made them go from hoping that those who can't help can leave here safely, to asking them to stay. With a simple training, even if you can't fight in close quarters, you can be a gunner and logistician who doesn't need to work too hard.
Naturally, Jonny understood their intentions, so he didn't use the new population to do some superfluous things when they acquiesced to the construction of towns on their side.
No matter how strong he is, he is also a force that belongs to the island. Even in the worst-case scenario, the Earl and the Rear Admiral were defeated, and there was a reliable way out of the town.
The 10,000-meter-long stone wall "Great Wall", they have seen it with their own eyes, its incredible defensive power. Coupled with the soldiers stationed there against the stone wall, the bombardment situation of shells flying all over the sky, just looking at it from a distance, made them feel a burst of heartbeat.
The only fly in the ointment is that the kind of weapon on the fortress that makes their eyes hot cannot be disassembled and taken off. Otherwise, the battle between the island and the Black Sea Clan at this time should have ended a long time ago.
The biggest disadvantage of that weapon is that the corpses of the Black Sea Clan will not be used as trophies after victory. That is, it is just a loss, no gain, which is one of the key reasons why Jonny is reluctant to use too many weapons of this type.
It is also that the situation is roughly under control, and Jonny's focus will be on the various arrangements before leaving.
The stone buildings centered on the five-story supermarket mall are the most lively in the vicinity. On each floor, there are more than a dozen rooms, large and small. If you squeeze it, each room is counted as three people, and each building has a hundred people.
This is where only Jonny's soldiers, as well as the steward's foreman, who are selected from among the non-combatants, are eligible to stay.
The rest of the people moved in after repairing the houses there and on the inside of the stone wall.
Those who still have money left in hand will naturally "get" a better and safer location. However, the people who work under Jonny have also become the object of envy and envy of many people.
Perhaps knowing that Jonny and the Fortress were leaving, the Count was more lenient with the search of the city gates. Originally, because of those two cultivation skill books, the door that was opened began to be encouraged.
More supplies were bought from the supermarket, and even if they didn't reach his own hands, the Earl felt a sense of peace of mind. The pressure on the body has also been reduced a lot.
During these three days, the area near the fortress was even more lively. In addition to the people who want to leave with them, people who are worried that after the departure of the supermarket at sea, the lack of materials will lead to rising prices, and even those who have money and can't buy things in the future, queue up every day to buy all kinds of fruits and vegetables in the supermarket.
Jonny didn't say much about it, even though he had told everyone that he would be back soon. But how long will it take for those people to turn their attention to the hoarding of materials for the sake of the sense of loss in their hearts.
The space capsules, which can store a large number of various supplies, are almost full in the supermarket warehouse guarded by Loggins and a few genetic warriors. In particular, it is mainly based on various weapons and armor equipment, plus various ingredients that need to be consumed in large quantities every day.
There are hundreds of thousands of people on the island, and if you really eat it with an open stomach, the various kinds of ingredients you need to consume are also a huge number.
That's just in case, Loggins will have a stockpile. The equipment packaged into a space capsule can only be done in the supermarket in the Stone Man Castle. The kind of thing that can slow down the flow of time, but many people who have already "seen a lot" ask themselves have their jaws dropped in surprise.
Naturally, Logins and Fiali were busy with those things, and Jonny was arranging the future routes of the Fortress, as well as the actions of some of them when they arrived at their destination.
The three busy days passed quickly. Let Loggins and the others come to the fortress as well, and after some explanations, Jonny has had dinner and departed.
He wasn't going to wait until dawn tomorrow to set off, for the Fortress had an excellent detection system, and although the course at night was slower, it was much faster than a normal sea vessel.
The two ships that had been acquired from the pirates and the speedboat of the Fort were also left here. Even if they encountered some trouble, it would not leave the island without a boat.
The send-off dinner between Lord Earl and Rear Admiral, Jonny also refused, and he was not in a hurry.
Loggins also got the status of a nobleman, although he was only the lowest lord, but he also stepped into that circle. It's just that because of the special situation at this time, there is no fanfare to do it.
And the power in the hands of the Earl can only allow him to give this status to others. If you want a higher status, you need to ask for instructions from people of higher status in the kingdom, as well as ministers in charge of related affairs, and he is only a referral at most.
The Fortress travels at night, and the movement is not small. However, in the sea area in this direction, the Black Sea Clan has also cleaned up and driven away, and Loggins and they don't have to worry about it, they need to bear the threat of this sea area.
Lord Earl and Rear Admiral also stood at the top of the town at this time, looking at the fortress in the distance, the lights were fading away in the night, and their eyes showed a complicated expression.
On the one hand, they hope to have such a strong force that can share the pressure as an ally, but on the other hand, they are worried that its strength is too strong and threatens its position. This kind of complicated mind is more serious than that of the rear admiral.
