Chapter 398: Giving up is also a kind of love
The six-armed Naga on the right of Cynthia did not give up resistance because of Huey's words The long knife that flashed with Yi Han was still horizontal in front of him, with a resolute face.
"No, you can't give up, giving up is a dead end!" She said to Huey without looking back. The tone was firm, "Go back with them." Of course Mother won't do anything to me, but you're going to die! How can I watch you die alone? If you really want to die, you want the two of us together! β
Huey said abruptly: "There is no need for that, I may not die!" And, I don't want to die with you either! β
As he spoke, he turned back to Serena and whispered, "I'll do whatever you want, but I'll warn you." You also know Cynthia's identity, if she is injured, I'm afraid you won't be able to explain it when you go back! β
"Huey!" Cynthia Gate was in a hurry when she heard this, and wanted to turn around to stop the other party's action, but she was entangled by several Naga soldiers who rushed into the captain's room, and she couldn't get out, and then those magicians shot together, and several negative magic were blessed on her, making her combat effectiveness sharply reduced, and she was subdued by the Naga soldiers after a while.
During the whole process, Huey kept clenching his fists and didn't make any movements, but the sadness in his eyes was so thick that he could hardly dissolve.
"I've made up my mind, Cynthia, go back, we weren't supposed to be together!" Before being escorted away by the soldiers, he said this last sentence.
Serena looked at all this coldly, and her heart was full of disdain, a human, a Bracada nobleman, a noble magician, actually fell in love with a Naga, but this Naga is still the third princess of the Bracada Naga family, this is simply ridiculous.
The Naga clan is strong in combat and has a lot of status in Bracada, but in the eyes of the magicians who really control Bracada, there is not much difference between the Naga clan and the magical creatures created by the magicians, at best, they are just higher-level fighters, even the powerful Titan Giants, of course, the magicians will not show such emotions on the surface.
Because, the respect on the surface can be exchanged for the allegiance of these races, and the current Nian Lacada is not strong enough, and these monster-like guys are needed.
Looking at the six-armed Naga who fell to the ground and was already crying, a trace of imperceptible disgust flashed in Serena's eyes, the Bracada Kingdom, inherited from the Brakaton Empire, has never been a country that wants to treat other races equally, everything is just expediency, and the Immortal King's decision is wise, taking advantage of these strange races. The Bracada Mage Kingdom can stand on the continent of Erathia for nearly a thousand years without falling, silently waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback, and now the opportunity has come, as long as the great plan that the Immortal King has been secretly planning for the past two years is completed, the magicians can obtain all kinds of magical knowledge, magic and technology from the long-lost Miracle Age, and use these knowledge, magic and technology to regain the glory of the Brakkat Empire's domination of the continent in the past. The Immortal King will definitely become the sole master of this continent because of this!
When the time comes, the Bracadas will no longer need these monster-like races, and they will once again prostrate themselves at the feet of the great magicians and become the lowliest servants of the magicians! It's like in the days of the Braccat Empire!
Every time she thought about it, Serena felt that her soul was cheering, and it made her even more determined to succeed in the mission of her trip.
Evermont has the key to completing the Immortal King's plan, and he must find it and present it to the Immortal King.
And the news that came not long ago showed that the necromancers who betrayed Bracada in Diya also seemed to be fighting the idea of the Evermont Islands, but it seemed to have failed, and even the rare nautical chart was lost.
However, it is clear that necromancers of such an important chart will definitely have a backup. They may act again at any time, and they must be one step ahead of them, these evil necromancers have repeatedly sabotaged the plans of the Immortal King, and this time, they must not be allowed to succeed again.
Cynthia was disheartened when she arrived on the ground, four years ago she ran away from home, infiltrated the navy incognito, and became an ordinary Naga soldier, just to be with Huey, fortunately. It didn't take much effort for her to find Huey. Fortunately, the Naga soldiers who had been adrift at sea for many years did not recognize themselves at all, and she was stunned to stay by Huey's side.
She advised Huey many times not to continue to drift on the seas and go away with her, but Huey always disagreed, saying that he loved this vast and boundless ocean, and that he could not do without the sea and his boat.
Cynthia remembered that Huey had advised herself many times to go back to Bracada and not suffer with him, saying that there could be no future when the two of them were together.
"No one will bless us! No one will approve of us! Cynthia! Give up that naΓ―ve dream! And I can't do without this sea! Huey said that to her more than once.
Cynthia has lost her temper more than once for this, she thinks that Huey has gone too far, and she has left everything to come to him, but he can't let go of this sea? Does he love this damn ocean more than he loves himself?
Cynthia also wanted to leave this hateful man more than once, but every time, she couldn't make up her mind, she was so infatuated with him, she loved him so much.
So while she was angry, she was still waiting stupidly, waiting for three days for this man to change his mind.
But at this moment, looking at Huey's desperately departing back, she finally understood that this man was not reluctant to give up the damn sea, what he really couldn't bear was actually himself.
The reason why he didn't agree to leave, the reason why he kept saying that he couldn't leave the sea, was actually just an excuse, all of it, just because he knew clearly that if he really left with her. What kind of results will there be.
Although the relationship between the two is secret, it is not unknown to anyone, and he knows very well that Cynthia's mother, the current Queen of Naga, will one day perceive the relationship between the two and follow this line. Queen Naga will also eventually find out that her precious daughter has run away from home to be with him.
This cross-racial love is unlikely to end well.
If the two really come together, even if they hide to the ends of the earth, with the character of Queen Naga. What awaits them will also be an endless pursuit, and in order to appease the anger of Queen Naga, the Bracada Mage Kingdom will not ignore this, and Huey, as an important general of the Bracada Navy, it is not easy to want the mountain type, and his identity is destined that the Bracada side will not let him go,
Even if the two Lu Xiao get away with it, what happens next?
Cynthia suddenly remembered a phrase that Huey often said: "I'm just a useless man." β
This man obviously could not tolerate a noble-born princess following him, a useless man, to live a life of exile and sleeping. And he is good at nothing but commanding naval battles and the magic of the limb system of the half-bucket of water, even if he settles down, how can he let the woman he loves live with him that kind of life without a meal?
What's more, how can he tolerate the strange eyes of the world that his beloved woman doesn't endure because she is with him?
Thinking of all this, Cynthia wept bitterly, she hated herself for not being able to discover the true heart of the man hidden under his cold exterior until such a time, and hated that she had listened to his lies in the past, thinking that he really did not want to leave the sea.
Distraught by her cries, Serena didn't bother to say what she wanted to say, just waved her hand to take her to take care of her.
Then she busied herself with announcing that she had taken command of the fleet, and inserted into the fleet the henchmen who had been proficient in naval warfare that she had brought aboard beforehand, replacing some of the officers who were close to Huey.
Huey was quite prestigious in the fleet, though. There are also some sworn friends, but Serena has the order of the Immortal King in his hand, so he does not dare to act rashly while sympathizing, no matter what, they also think that this matter is not done by Huey himself, otherwise he would not end up like this.
Huey, who was imprisoned in a cabin on the ground floor of the flagship, had no intention of resisting, in his opinion. There's nothing wrong with this, as long as Cynthia goes back safely, he doesn't care what happens to him, anyway, he has no family, he is alone, he has nothing to worry about, and he has been living a life of blood at sea for so many years, and he has long been used to seeing life and death. It's better to die if you die, than to let your beloved woman suffer with you, give up, and sometimes it's a kind of love.
"Let's hope there won't be any accidents in the dead sea
In the dark cabin, he muttered to himself, the only thing he was worried about right now.
And Cynthia, who was locked in her room after being disarmed, was not allowed to go out, but at this time she was in a hurry, her mind was numb, and she didn't know what to do.
This is at sea, even if she can deal with the guards outside and rescue Huey, there is nowhere to escape, what can she do?
I can only wait until I get to land. You can't watch him die because of himself.
Cynthia said to herself in her heart. She had already decided, this time, even with a tie-up. I also want to kidnap that hateful man, and then the two of them wander the world together.
Serena didn't know what Huey and Cynthia were thinking, in her opinion, it was just a trivial matter, and she originally wanted to wait until the return trip to do it, after all, Huey was one. Experienced generals are very helpful for this mission. It's just that seeing the ambiguous relationship between Huey and Cynthia, she really can't stand it, so she suddenly launched it under the pretext of the Rigner pirates and took down the two.
Sitting in the captain's quarters, Serena was stunned by a mutilated chart. This time, Bracada's actions fell behind the necromancer, and this was the first time that such a thing had happened since the Immortal King began to carry out that calculation?
The necromancers had already started the search for the Evermont Islands half a year ago, but the Bracada side was helpless because there was no chart, and the Immortal King was also in a hurry, because the things on the Evermont Islands were crucial to his plan, and this chart was also obtained by the Immortal King with a lot of effort. Although it is incomplete, it is somewhat certain. It was he who couldn't wait for Serena to get into action.
Thinking of this, Serena couldn't help but take out a magic scroll, which was a magic scroll of the earth grandmaster-level magic "Time and Space Gate", with the help of this scroll and the magic materials prepared in advance. Once she reaches the Evermont Islands, she can build a two-way magical portal that connects to the mainland of Bracada, turning the Evermont Islands into a part of Bracada, allowing the Immortal King to calmly search for everything he wants on the island.
"My lord, the scouts have reported that the Harpy has been spotted nearby, and I'm worried that someone will try to turn it against us!" Serena's musings were interrupted by the sound of an officer's report. She quickly put the magic scroll away, a little surprised.
"Who has the audacity to provoke Bracada's naval fleet, the Rigner pirates?. She asked in a deep voice. The officer, who had been following Huey for a long time, hesitated for a moment, but did not make a fuss.
Seeing this, Serena couldn't help frowning: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly!" Don't pretend there! β
The officer gritted his teeth, and finally plucked up his courage and said, "My lord, the Rigner pirates will not attack us, they know how powerful we are, and they also know how Lord Huey acts!" So I think someone else is coming."
Hearing this, Serena couldn't help but sneer: "It seems that you guys are really making a name for themselves at sea." That's right, the Rigner pirates are going to greet you when they pass by, and of course they won't attack you! Then tell me, what kind of person is so bold that he doesn't even take the naval fleet of Bracada in his eyes! Is it other, weaker pirates? Or the fleet of the Imperial Naval Fleet of Erathia, which is allied with us? Don't tell me that a passing merchant fleet is playing against us."
In Serena's heart, in fact, it has been determined that it must be the Rigner pirates, which is not surprising, it is said that the last time the necromancers acted was to buy the Rigner pirates to help them, so much time has passed, it is impossible for the necromancers not to act again, this time they must be more prepared, although the actions on their side are secret, but the necromancers' spies are everywhere, maybe they already know their whereabouts, so they want to intercept themselves at sea.
But the officer's thoughts were clearly different from Serena's: "Your Excellency, you may not be happy to hear it, but the other day we heard some rumors from the Rigna pirates and some passing merchant fleets that there is a mysterious and strange fleet that haunts the waters around here, and is here and there to intercept the Rigna pirates, so I think we may have met them!"
