Chapter Eighty-Nine: Coercion and Temptation

Previous Chapter

"So, you're seasick?"

Lu Cheng looked at Chiyan who was lying on the railing in disbelief.

"Hey, don't mention it, remember when I first arrived in the territory, I immediately found a place to rest, and it was also because of seasickness."

Red Flame retched as she spoke.

"Didn't you remember the last time you went on a boat to attack robbers and kobolds?" Lu Cheng asked suspiciously.

Chiyan rolled his eyes: "That's because the time is short, and there are no bumps, so I held back, and besides, you didn't care about me." ”

"Besides, you're not commanding the battle?" Red Flame pointed to the smoking Kirk-class battleship next to it that had been hit by Galen-class guns.

Lu Cheng shrugged: "Isn't this all done, the enemy's flagship has been destroyed by us, and I originally planned to let you lead the team to board the ship." ”

The Galen-class battleship got close to the opponent's flagship and fired two consecutive salvos to the poor little ship, and even the mainmast was skewed, which was a sign that a cannonball had broken the base of the mast.

The other five Kirk-class battleships on the other side obviously would not watch their flagships destroyed, and fought fiercely with the Galen-class battleships and the two Calais-class battleships that arrived later for a quarter of an hour, and the two sides fired hundreds of shells back and forth, adding a few more holes to the Guerren-class hull, while one of the Kirk-class battleships was sunk, and the other four were wounded and fled.

Chiyan waved his hand weakly: "Spare me, Tiezhu, you lead the team." ”

Li Tiezhu looked at Chi Yan who turned into a soft girl in embarrassment: "Okay, Lord Chi Yan...... You're okay physically, right? ”

"It's going to be the big aunt." Chi Yansheng said unlovingly, and turned his head to look at Leah who was gloating, "Little girl, what are you happy about, I haven't settled the account with you about the fall from the hammock just now." ”

"Cut! Whoever lets you sleep during combat time is self-inflicted. Liya looked up at the Yu Clan who were slowly descending from the sky, "Anyway, what color are the Yu Clan girls wearing?" ”

Unclean!

Lu Cheng's head collapsed and threw it on Liya's head: "It's combat time, give me a serious place!" Ding Chuan, don't laugh, hurry up and take the board! Li Tiezhu, bring the elite militia on board with me! ”

The side of the Galen-class was several meters higher than that of the Kirk-class, and from the Kirk-class, the Galen-class was as tall as a city wall. In the battle just now, Galava's flagship was badly damaged, the artillery bay on deck 2 was completely abandoned, and the deck was full of bloody hellish scenes. Galava, who had received an elite education since childhood, had never seen such a scene, so he quickly toned down the realism of the bloody images, and a pile of mosaics covered the broken corpses, so that he felt better.

And at this moment, a bunch of iron hooks tied to ropes were thrown from the opposing ship, and the flagship of Galava was firmly hung, and soon the personnel of the opposing side slid down the rope.

"Prepare for battle!" Galava drew his premium-grade steel sword, "Prepare for broadside!" ”

With Lu Cheng boarding the ship, there were more than 50 militiamen, and there were only more than 20 people around Galava, just a face, Galava was horrified to find that his militia and seamen were beaten and could not fight back.

"Yo! Isn't this the Galava brothers? ”

Lu Cheng soon saw that the other party's head was actually his acquaintance.

"You?" Galava searched for prestige and found that the person in front of him was actually Lu Cheng, "Mr. Arbiter!" How did you? How to ......"

"Hahahaha, it's Mr. Galava, is this fleet yours?" Lu Cheng waved his hand to stop the fighting.

"It's down there." Many thoughts quickly passed through Galava's mind, and he glanced at the Galen-class next to him, "This...... Both the ship and the fleet are yours of the Arbiter? ”

Lu Cheng put away the dwarf flame sword and nodded: "It's mine, I thought I ran into someone, it turned out to be Mr. Galava." ”

Galava looked at Lu Cheng in disbelief and then at the battleship behind Lu Cheng: "Mr. Arbiter's strength is really beyond my expectations, you have got such a huge battleship, you see that I can only produce a 100-ton warship." ”

"Haha, it's just luck." Lu Cheng smiled and waved his hand, then his face changed and he said slowly, "Brother Galava, in the past half a month, I have 3 transport ships that have been sunk by you in the nearby waters, can you ask why?" ”

Galava's heart tightened, he kept guessing that this was the NPC's fleet, and he didn't think about the player's direction at all, so after finding out that the other party was Lu Cheng, he hadn't completely come back to his senses, and he was a little confused when Lu Cheng asked him like this.

"Ahem~ This may be a misunderstanding, I thought it was an NPC's ship, but I didn't expect it to be you, Mr. Arbiter, and I apologize for the loss you caused." Galava said with a humble expression.

"Huh...... That's a loss of thousands of gold coins. Lu Cheng sneered, "By the way, I received a regional campaign mission, and I think you all know about it." This task is very important to me, and I hope you can give me a face. ”

"This is a forgiveness." Galava flatly refused.

Lu Cheng is not angry, in fact, Galava's attitude is completely predictable, the so-called one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, Lu Cheng knows that the stronger he is, the greater the threat to other players, so confrontation is inevitable.

"Oh, then I don't think there's anything to talk about." Lu Cheng looked left and right, "In addition, let me remind you, if I wipe out your fleet, I guess that player named Matsumasaha should be very happy." ”

"What do you want to do?" Galava felt a pang in his heart, he still didn't know the previous relationship between Lu Cheng and Matsumasahara.

Ho ho, sure enough, this is Galava's weakness.

Lu Cheng thought about it in his heart, and said unhurriedly: "It's actually very simple, you have also seen my strength, to be honest, your strength is not enough at all, I want to defeat you as easily." However, the island is also big enough, and although the position of the boss belongs to me, it ......"

Lu Cheng stared at Galava's eyes: "Maybe the position of the second child can be yours?" ”

Galava's eyes narrowed slightly: "You're too confident, aren't you?" ”

"Huh, confidence?" The corners of Lu Cheng's mouth raised, and he pointed to the battleship behind him, "There are already 5 such warships, and the Calais class is almost 10, and there are more warships of the same level under construction, I think, you know what a fist is the truth, right?" ”

"You made it yourself?" Galava was stunned for a moment, he found that he had made the mistake of underestimating his opponent again, among the players he came into contact with, the players with the blueprints of the 100-ton battleship were already among the best, even if they overestimated Lu Cheng, the 400-ton Calais class was a terrible opponent. And the thousand-ton warship, and there is only one, he thought that Lu Cheng got it through some channel.

Lu Cheng nodded: "Of course, it is produced by my territory, if you are interested, it is not impossible to sell a few ships to you in the future." ”

Galava looked at Lu Cheng hesitantly, and after being silent for a while, he asked in a deep voice, "What do you want me to do?" ”

Bingguo, the young man is not stupid, let's look at the conditions before making a decision.

"Simple, I want you to be neutral." Lu Cheng noticed Garava's look of refusal and immediately continued, "Don't be in a hurry to refuse, I know what you think." ”

The Kirk-class battleship under its feet suddenly tilted a few degrees, apparently after the previous bombardment, the battleship was already heavily flooded, and it was only a matter of time before it sank.

"What reason do you have to convince me?" Galava asked, confused.

Lu Cheng smiled slightly: "You must think that if I receive this regional campaign mission, it will be an opportunity for you to defeat me." But in fact, think about it, if I didn't have the corresponding strength to win, would the system let me take this task? Isn't that a trap for players? So, I'm strong enough to turn around what seems to be an unfavorable situation right now. ”

Of course, Lu Cheng was talking nonsense, when he first received the task, his strength was not strong, and he was not enough to see in front of NPCs.

But Galava's hesitant look showed that he had already believed a little, and at this time he needed to order more materials, so Lu Cheng continued: "Besides, so many of you are doing this task together, it is difficult to ensure that others will not cut you in the back, you see, just now, the other players left you and ran away, do you think a combination like you can work together to complete the task?" ”

"Of course, you may think that I am talking without evidence and exaggerating my strength. However, we can make a bet that in just 2 weeks, the offensive of the Condi Kingdom will be stopped by me. Lu Cheng looked at Galava with a smile, "During this time, I don't need you to do anything, just maintain a neutral attitude and stop harassing my transport team, of course, you can continue to do pretending things." ”

Galava thought for a moment and asked, "What's the benefit of working with you?" ”

"First of all, if you are between that Matsunahara, I will support you more, and secondly, if you need it, I can sell you weapons and equipment, including battleships, at a friendly price."

Galava looked up at the Galen class: "Then how do I believe that you will help me and not Matsumasahara, maybe you will say the same thing to Matsumasaha when you go back?" ”

Lu Cheng pouted: "I'm a Chinese player, and Matsumasahara is Japanese, don't you think this reason is enough?" ”

Of course, Galava knew that the confrontation between China and Japan had lasted for hundreds of years, so he believed Lu Cheng's explanation after a little thought: "So what price do you want to sell this Galen-class battleship?" ”

"Actually, I'd recommend that you ask the price of the Calais class." Lu Cheng shrugged, "This improved version of the Galen-class sells for 150,000 gold coins alone, and if you sell 7 or 8 ships, you can get a 9% discount." ”

“......”

Galava had a ghostly expression on his face, even if he sold his territory, he wouldn't be able to make up 150,000 gold coins, is there really no problem with this crazy price?

"So it is recommended that you buy the Calais class, and the price of each ship is 16,000 gold coins." Lu Cheng could only helplessly spread his hands, he would not sell the Galen level at the price of 100,000 gold coins, after all, this is a trump card, how can he sell it easily. As for the Calais-class, after all, it is a low-end warship, and it is also a good choice to sell some to make a little money.
