Chapter 5 Heavy snow seals the island
The warship was moving quickly in the sea, and Ray sat on the deck with his back against the guardrail reading, "Uh! I always feel like I've forgotten something. ”
At this time, Zefa, who was preparing dinner at Marin Fando's house, suddenly sneezed, "Ahche! Strange, do I have a cold? ”
Cutting vegetables in his hands, Zefa imagined the scene of father and son having dinner together, "Ray will definitely be amazed by my cooking skills when he comes back today." ”
Back to Ray's side, the captain of the warship is a middle-aged colonel, who always likes to talk about justice on weekdays, but he acts tactfully, and he is a relationship that climbed to the position of colonel through various connections.
This time, I heard that the Warring States Marshal personally ordered the preparation of a warship below, and he suddenly felt that the opportunity had come, "The person who can make the Warring States Marshal order the preparation of a warship must be a big man, and this time I, Colonel Hank, am going to be developed." With this in mind, he struggled a lot to get this spot, just to be able to hug his thighs.
However, when he saw that the person he was waiting for was a hairy boy, he was immediately disappointed, but he did not show it on his face after a long time of officialdom, and received Lei on official business, but he ignored it after getting on the ship.
"Doesn't he know me? Doesn't he even read the newspaper? "Actually, Ray was still very surprised after getting on the ship, in the past two days, he has met a lot of people in the headquarters who have asked for autographs or sets of close to him, and it is really surprising to suddenly meet a person who treats him normally.
Why? Because Colonel Hank's usual energy is all spent on the open and secret battles in the officialdom, how can he have time to read the newspaper, and he joined the navy as a relation, he has not received Zefa's training, let alone recognizes Lei's identity.
Although he was snubbed, Ray was a little happy, "I can finally read the book cleanly, and try to finish the book before I reach my destination." ”
It is a pity that the Kingdom of Bourbourbon Harrow is closer to Marinfando than to the Chambord Islands, and in just two hours, the warship has reached the already frozen island.
"That's? Visalia! Grandpa Hara, are they here too? On the way here, Ray saw an island floating high in the sky.
After getting off the warship and stepping on the thick snow, Lei had a clear understanding of the disaster in the Kingdom of Bourbon Harrow, "Although I have heard about it for a long time, I remember that this should be Xia Island, right?" The snow is so thick. ”
Wrapped in his coat, Ray walked some distance and saw Harada and his party greeting him.
Striding over happily, Ray looked at Harada shivering in the snow and asked, "Grandpa Hara, why are you here?" ”
"I'll tell you about this, I'll introduce you, this is King Lavent III of the Kingdom of Bourbon Harrow, and he asked the World Government to order the navy to send you." Harada pointed to the little king beside him and introduced him to Ray.
Looking at Harley's hand, Ray was taken aback and almost cried out, "It's so small!" ”
The little king's face was completely devoid of childishness, and he bowed to Lei very seriously: "Mr. Lei, I hope you can save this country." ”
"That's what I'm here for." Putting away that surprise, Ray showed the respect he deserved.
"Let's go back to the palace and talk." Seeing that the two seemed to be chatting here, Hara, who was stiff from the frozen snot, hurriedly pulled the two and walked back.
The group got on the sleigh and glided quickly on the snow, and in a short time they saw the palace.
Looking at the royal palace not far away, although it was basically covered by heavy snow, from the scale and exposed tiles, Ray could still imagine the prosperity of this place before the catastrophe came, and at this time, there were not even a few people in the royal palace of Nuoda who came out to welcome the king's return.
"Many of the people froze to death on the night of the heavy snowfall, and the wealthier families moved to other countries, and now even if the snow stops, the kingdom will not be able to recover in a short time." The little king walked in front and led the people into the palace, introducing Ray as he went.
Walking through the dark corridor to the warm palace, the group was finally able to sit down and warm up.
"We heard about the strange climate reversal here after the last separation, and we hope to solve the problem, but until now we haven't found the cause of climate change. Even if the clouds are cleared, and after a while there will be snowfall, there is really no way we can introduce you to His Majesty. Harada took off his hat and shook off the snow as he informed Ray of the situation.
"Actually, when I set foot on this island, I noticed that the clouds on this island are very strange." Ray said with a serious face.
"Strange?" The little king didn't understand, and Harada and the others looked at Ray curiously.
"Yes, strange! The cloud distribution on the island is very uneven. Ray pulled out a piece of paper and drew a sketch for Harada to see.
"But, Thunder, isn't it normal for the clouds to be unevenly divided? Even if we know that these places are more cloud-dense, how will it help us in our work? Holding the sketch and looking at it, Harada was puzzled.
"Actually, I don't know now, but I'm going to take a look around the island in a while, and I'll definitely find something out then." Smiling at the bewildered faces of the crowd, Ray continued to draw on the paper.
While Ray's group was having a heated discussion in the palace, on the other side of the island, a narrow pirate ship quietly docked.
Looking at the weather on the island, the pirates who had been prepared for a long time put on thick cotton clothes.
"Boss, what the hell are we doing here? There was nothing but snow in this place. The ship's number three, boatswain "One-Eyed" Mickey's gruff voice rang out, and his appearance matched his voice.
As the captain of the pirates, the "steel sword" Luke, who had a bounty of 240 million, rubbed his hands and scolded impatiently: "Shut up, what do you know!" Don't look at how desolate this place is, it was a paradise a year ago. ”
"What's the use of that, it's not almost over now." Mickey pouted disdainfully.
Deputy Captain Peter looked at his unsuspecting subordinates and patiently explained: "Although this country is very poor now, the palace of this country has accumulated a large amount of treasure in the past, and it will never be consumed in just one year. Now that the world government has basically abandoned the country, we are taking advantage of the situation to snatch the treasure. ”
The greedy pirates were so excited that they rushed to the palace to grab a good light, and even thought that the snowy weather was not so cold.
"But don't linger after grabbing, this place is too close to the Navy Headquarters, so you still have to be careful." As the brains of this pirate group, Peter reminded him uneasily.
Luke picked up his greatsword and smiled evilly, "Let's go!" Kill the past. ”
