Act 135 The Breeze in the Outer Harbor III

The battle to ambush the Rodney ended even faster than expected.

When the Valhalla fleet disguised as an imperial patrol ship opened fire, Rodney thought there was some misunderstanding, and hurriedly ordered the ship to stop and wait for Brando's subordinates to come up and explain. As a result, when the three battleships from Valhalla got close enough, he finally showed his abnormality, but unfortunately it was too late at this time, the commander on the Brando's battleship directly ordered the battleship to lean up and start a broadside battle, and the sailors swarmed up, although the knights from the White Legion around Rodney were still ready to resist, but the battlefield they were good at was not above the sea and air after all, not to mention that there were Valkyries and Gray Sword Saints on Brando's side, and it took less than a quarter of an hour for the sailors to attack the bilge, Let Rodney and the rest of his men surrender.

The three warships then docked at a military anchorage near Port Fatan, and Brando was immediately notified and took Charles and his party aboard. When they got on board, the traces of the battle on the deck had long been taken care of, the corpses were removed, the blood was cleaned, and rows of sailors in Valhalla Navy uniforms stood on both sides of the ship, and the traces of previous battles were clearly visible from their bodies, but the eyes of these young men were mostly full of excitement, and behind them, several prisoners were tied up and thrown aside like rice dumplings, but Rodney himself was unharmed, and stood by the hatch for a long time, Brunhilde of the Valkyrie was in charge of watching him personally. Brunhilde was as dressed today as ever. The cold color on his face is still the same, and he looks smiling in front of outsiders. But there was a bright flame burning in her light blue eyes like the sea, and she didn't nod slightly until she saw Brando.

Being personally guarded by the leader of the Valkyrie sung in mythology, Rodney's life was worth it in that alone.

But at this moment, he obviously didn't think so, he didn't want to die, so he seemed to be extremely trembling, but he witnessed the whole battle with his own eyes, and he brought thirty-two great knights. These knights are all from the elite of the White Legion, and each of them has at least the strength above the lower reaches of gold, but the elite of these elites, in front of the three female warriors riding the flame war horse, has no ability to resist, that is, to use the most euphemistic words, the previous battle situation was also one-sided, without any luck at all. Especially the female god of war beside him. It was even a shot that left a huge hole in this battleship, what are you kidding, this is a second-class battleship, although he has no ability, but he has a very good eye, and it can be seen at a glance that these Valkyries at least have mastered the power of the elements. And it's not the kind of half-person who forcibly ascends from the pinnacle of gold to touch the elements by means, but a powerhouse, a Templar who truly controls the power of the elements, and maybe even more than that.

How could three elemental powerhouses suddenly appear in such a place, especially since they were still wearing standard equipment, and it seemed that they belonged to some mysterious force. The Flame War Horse Rodney they sat on didn't know either, but they had to be able to withstand the elemental level battles. The extraordinariness of this kind of mount was obvious, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat at the thought that such a mount could appear in batches. What kind of forces in the vicinity would have such a strong strength? In addition to the temple, he really couldn't think of it, the biggest lord of East Mez was the Duke of Hanaba, but it was impossible for the Grand Duke of Hanaba to have such strength, could it really be a temple? Rodney knew that in addition to the priestly department, the highest knight weapon in the Fire Temple was the Fire Knight, but there were no women among the Fire Knights. Moreover, he saw that these people were obviously foreigners, but they had not yet connected them with the small country to the south, and the people he suspected most were in fact the Buga.

Only the Buga will appear at this time and stand in opposition to Her Majesty the Queen.

Rodney's whimsical thoughts continued until he saw a man appear on the deck, and when he saw that person, his eyes widened in disbelief, his face turned pale, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and his legs trembled involuntarily, as if he would collapse to the ground at any moment, if it hadn't been for Brunhilde helping him behind his back, maybe this possibility would have come true, which shows how frightened this guy is.

In the Empire, if there is such a person who can cause such an influence among the nobles, then there is no doubt that this person can only have a title - the Gray Sword Saint, that is, Mephistopheles who followed Brando to the deck at this moment. For this legendary sword master, his appearance is a household name in the empire, and there is no need to explain it at all, because there is no way that anyone will not know him, even among the commoners, let alone among the nobles.

Brando saw Rodney's face, thinking of the influence that Mephistopheles had caused among those southern nobles of the empire before, and couldn't help but glance at his cheap swordsmanship teacher with some curiosity, thinking to himself What kind of situation does this have to be, so that people can be afraid of being like this when they see it for the first time when they have never met, and those who don't know may think that your old man has done something that people and gods are angry with in the empire, but it is also strange to say that in his memory, the gray sword saint has actually only made a big fuss twice in the empire, Judging from the records, it doesn't seem to be a big deal, and I don't know why these people are afraid of being like this, whether they are too worried, or if there is something else going on.

Mephistopheles glanced at his student disdainfully, he didn't bother to answer this kind of question at all, although he and the empire had a hatred for the death of the country, but he didn't waste time on a villain like Rodney, of course he knew Brando's purpose for letting him come together, and now this guy's purpose has been achieved, he snorted from his nose, pressed his sword with one hand and walked to the other side of the deck, looking at the sea and sky outside the harbor, and simply came out of sight and out of mind.

The young people from Valhalla on the deck cast adoring glances.

Brando was a little speechless, knowing that his teacher had a different personality. He looked over to Rodney, frowning slightly. To be honest, he didn't have a good impression of this guy - whether it was because of what this guy had done in history or what he was doing now - not to mention the previous battle, his men were also damaged, after all, they were more than thirty knight captains in the lower reaches of gold, and the young men under him were what kind of strength, although they were trained by the Buga, but the training time would not be more than half a year. Even if it is a talent and the assistance of mass-produced secondary dragon blood elixirs, it is great to have the strength of a black iron peak in half a year, even if it is a Valkyrie with great strength, casualties are inevitable.

And these casualties were unnecessary, and these best young men of the kingdom, who should have a great future, shed their blood and bones in a foreign land for no reason. As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but be angry and wanted to order this guy to be thrown into the sea. But fortunately, Brando has not lost his mind, and he knows that the guy in front of him is at least Veronica's younger brother. And now, although he serves the Silver Queen, at least he has not betrayed the empire and thrown himself into the arms of Madara, nominally has not broken off from the Ereshiko family, and more importantly, he wants to squeeze some residual value out of this guy.

Think about it. His gaze skimmed directly over the guy and landed on Marjorie behind him. The young non-commissioned officer from the Royal Navy of Yanirasu offered to be responsible for participating in the ambush, considering that he was the only one with the most experience among all his men, and that the operation could not be failed at the moment, so he agreed to the other party's request and gave him three ships to take command, but the latter did not disappoint him and completed the task beautifully.

Marjory put his hand on his chest, saluted Brando with the courtesy of a mid-rank or mid-class officer to a superior, and replied, "Lord Lord, the gods are blessed and blessed to live up to his fate." ”

Brando nodded and smiled, "Good job." ”

A simple sentence actually made Marjorie's heart a little excited, but he immediately realized that he was not in the Royal Navy, and the other party was not his immediate boss, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, as if he didn't know when they began to be a little familiar with the tone of the commander's orders. However, he was a naval non-commissioned officer after all, and obedience to discipline and orders had long been natural, and this thought only flashed in his heart, and he did not take it seriously.

However, the Duke's daughter, Oni, who was following Brando, was keenly aware of the difference in tone between the two, and she glanced at Marjorie and Brando with a somewhat complicated expression.

Brando glanced at the black hatch behind Rodney and threw an inquiring look at Marjorie.

The young naval non-commissioned officer understood and hurriedly replied: "My lord, the prisoner cart is inside, and I did not let anyone approach that cabin according to your orders. ”

Brando nodded with satisfaction, now is the cusp of the storm, he doesn't want more people to know Faina's identity, some things are far better in the dark than in the light, not to mention that he knows that with the temperament of that daughter, he probably doesn't want too many people to see her down-and-out. When he thought of the high-ranking lady he met in the Ring of the Trade Winds, he also had a somewhat complicated mood, thinking that this was probably the so-called fate of people, who would have thought that their second meeting would be in such a situation.

……

In the black prison, Faina was a little trembling and curled up in a corner, the cold shackles locked to the right ankle of the duke's daughter, attached to a heavy chain, she didn't know what was going on outside, but before she could clearly hear the roar of artillery fire, the sound of fighting, the hull of the ship vibrating violently, these sounds were noisy at first, reached a peak at a certain time, and then gradually fell silent, and the whole ship became silent.

At first she could occasionally hear one or two kicks on the door, the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, the sound of begging for mercy and the wailing of beasts, but soon even these sounds disappeared, at first she felt the floor of the ship shake slightly, but then even the whole ship stood still, as if in a world of complete silence.

Faina didn't know that it was because the ship had docked again, she only knew that the terrible roar of artillery fire at the beginning scared her head and screamed, wishing that this hellish experience would pass to the end, but when it was quiet, she missed the noise before, the boundless silence made her feel as if her heart was frozen, she didn't know what was going on outside, and the dark space seemed to fall into a huge unknown, This uncertainty about the future made the duke's daughter feel as if a giant beast lurked ahead, waiting for her to collide head-on.

She heard her heart beating vigorously in the darkness, thumping, as if it were the only sound in the world, and fear made her cling to the cold wall, and she tried to whisper a few times, trying to get the attention of the guards outside the iron prison, but her voice was as weak as a helpless lamb because of hunger and cold, and it could not be reached beyond the iron prison.

The great uneasiness finally made her sob.

It was at this moment that an elongated metal grinding sound seemed to pierce into a dark world, and the eldest lady bounced up from the ground as if she had been pricked by a needle, and she still had a little tears on her face, but her eyes widened in horror and looked around. The sound came vaguely from outside the hatch, and soon a second sound came, and Faina only felt all the hairs on her body stand upside down, and when she listened carefully, she finally heard clearly, it was the sound of someone opening the lower hatch, although she was a big lady, but she was not ignorant, she knew that in such a battleship, only the hatch of the power room was made of metal, and it was not far from the bilge where she was.

Someone's coming?

Or something else?

The beast that lurked in the unknown seemed to have pressed into her, and she felt her little heart beat again, and soon she heard a series of footsteps, which stopped not far from the cage, and then she heard the man's conversation, is it a pirate? Faina had such a thought at the first time, because she knew that there were no floating ships in her father's domain, and if she wanted to save her, she would not wait until the ship left the port, but who would fight the Imperial Navy in the sublime inland sea? That could only be a pirate.

She knew that those pirates were likely to win, and although she didn't know where those pirates were so holy that they could defeat the knights around Rodney, she had heard stories about them since she was a child, and she knew what would happen if they fell into the hands of those pirates, especially a girl like her.

Faina's face turned pale, she wished that time would freeze at this moment and never move forward, or that those rude fellows should not notice the prison cart, but unfortunately it backfired, and she soon heard the sound of the prison door opening. There was a tooth-aching creak and a glimmer of light coming from outside the door, and Faina buried her head almost immediately, huddled helplessly in the corner, but her heart was at a loss.

She was almost completely hopeless, and it was the worst ending for her.

However, there is only a thin line between hell and heaven.

She heard a voice ask:

"Faina?"

The voice was so pleasant, like a heavenly sound, that this young lady could swear by heaven, and she never thought for a moment in her life that that that hateful voice would have such a good day, that she almost hallucinated, thinking that she was hallucinating. She shuddered, and looked up incredulously, the light seeping into the darkness made her beautiful pupils shrink in circles, and the face of the gold, which was supposed to be dazzling and beautiful, but now looked a little messy, was full of illusions of surprise and ecstasy.

She saw a face that would never have appeared, but now it was so real in front of her that it couldn't be more real.
