Chapter 243: The Residents of the Doge's Palace
The roar of the cannons had never stopped since midnight, and for an old man who had lived most of his life, how could he not understand this situation. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info beast tide, that word that seems like a nightmare in the ears of ordinary people, has echoed countless times in the old man's mind. And his former home, the Tahitian Garrison, was destroyed by sea beasts. Although the monsters that appeared this time were very different from the sea beasts he had witnessed, what did it matter, the old man only knew that these monsters were attacking Dawn Island, the beautiful home that had taken them in at their most dangerous time, allowing them to live a peaceful life again.
"Grandpa, I'm afraid." Granddaughter Xiao Su gently tugged at the corner of the old man's clothes.
The red, white and blue brand new little skirt, cut very pure and cute Qi bangs mushroom head, the little girl at this time is still the yellow-haired little girl who kept swallowing saliva for half a piece of bread on the Tahiti warship. After many days of adequate nutrition, the little girl's skin bloomed with the fair pink luster that a child of this age should have, but the original somewhat timid expression remained unchanged.
"Don't be afraid, there's a marshal." The old man leaned down and hugged his little granddaughter. Yesterday, when the residents learned from the mayor that the Admiral of the town guard was the new Marshal of the Pacific, everyone's faces were filled with disbelief, and the crowd erupted in earth-shattering cheers. Marshal, what a sacred and noble word, but any admiral who can get this rank is an existence that stands at the top of the pyramid of this world. And they, the ordinary people who originally lived in various towns, were fortunate enough to be the first residents of the Pacific Governor's Palace, and everyone felt extremely proud and proud. But this is not the most important thing, the point is that after becoming a resident of the Doge's Palace, their safety is absolutely guaranteed. In this world, every year, there are many news reports that the town guard of a certain war zone has been destroyed under the tide of beasts, and the inhabitants of the island have no life and other news. But the old man had lived so long, but he had never heard of the fall of the Governor's Palace. Not to mention his short life experience of seventy or eighty years, even if he goes back a few hundred years and turns the general history of the world from the past to the back, there is absolutely no such record.
In the old man's heart, since the establishment of the ten major war zones, the nine governors' palaces that have been standing in this world are undoubtedly the safest places in the world, and now, with their Dawn Town Guard, because their admiral is also a marshal, and there are many powerful ships under his command. Therefore, although he was disturbed by the sound of cannons and did not sleep all night, the old man's face did not have any worry on his face.
"Grandpa, can the Marshal really keep us safe?" Xiao Su shrunk in the old man's arms, and her petite body was still trembling.
"Yes, Lord Marshal is much more powerful than our previous Admirals." The old man didn't know what his little granddaughter was worried about. A hint of gloom flashed across his wrinkled face. At the beginning, the governor of Tahiti was a very good person, and he was very good to them, but it was a pity that he was only a major general-level admiral after all, and his command was not like the marshal, with so many powerful ships.
"Click."
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Grandpa Su, this is breakfast for you and Xiao Su." The person who came was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old man and a half, holding a large insulated lunch box in his hand.
The place where they are staying now is the nursing home run by the town, and all the elderly who are lonely and widowed like the old man will be sent to live in this nursing home, and the town government will fund the support of the elderly.
"Xiao Tao, how is the situation outside?"
"It's nothing, it's just because of the beast tide, every household has been notified, let everyone stay in the town today, then don't go." The young man scratched his head a little irritably, and said, "Grandpa Su, I want to join the navy, but my father won't let me." ”
The young man is not an outsider, it is the son of Fan Dabiao, the captain of the former Tahiti warship, and since they came to Shuguang Town to guard the mansion, they have been arranged to live in this town. Later, as more and more people moved over, the town quickly returned to normal prosperity, and the primary and secondary schools that had been closed for a long time also reopened under the organization of the mayor, which was a bit of a death for Fan Tao. He wasn't the kind of reading material at all, and he was bent on joining the navy that was being built in the town guard's mansion. It's just that his father, who is now a navy boss, agrees to it.
Although in this world, the steel warships built by humans are useless in the face of the deep-sea that has entered the ranks, but they can still play a certain role in dealing with deep-sea warships or sea beasts of the Miscellaneous Fish class, so there are formed human naval ship formations in the major towns. During Nagato's absence, the navy of the Aurora Garrison was also established under the help of Lexington. At present, three warships have been purchased from Tianyun City, all of which are 5,000-ton Seawolf-class warships, and Fan Tao's father Fan Dabiao is the captain of one of the warships.
"Xiao Tao! You don't have to worry about this matter, study hard now, and when you become an adult in the future, I'll go to Fan Dabiao and talk to that bastard boy. The old man said while taking care of his granddaughter to eat.
What Fan Dabiao was thinking, how could the old man not know. has been begging for half a life on the sea, only hoping that the children can live a plain life, and I don't want them to follow the old path of their fathers. But he Fan Dabiao didn't want to think about it, the town guard mansion is not only the marshal's, but also the home that everyone depends on for survival, and everyone has the responsibility to defend the town guard mansion. When his granddaughter grows up in the future, he will also send his granddaughter to become a navy, if not for anything else, but also for the ship's ladies who sit on the warship every day to wash their clothes.
"Grandpa, what's that?" The little girl, who was eating with her head down, suddenly pointed to the window.
"That's it." The old man's pupils shrank suddenly, and he looked at the huge black shadow in the air outside the window with a frightened face.
It was a three-story tall flying monster that looked like a fly. The old people could find that Relia and other S-class ship girls who had been arranged by Ling Yi to defend around the town early in the morning naturally noticed it. It's a pity that their artillery fire was unaccompanied by the layer of energy shield on the surface of the mechanical monster's body, and it didn't work at all.
And I don't know why, this flying mechanical monster directly abandoned the ship girl who had always been regarded as the first target of the mechanical clan, and flew directly towards the nursing home located in the outermost part of the town......
