Page 57 [Trident of the Sea Emperor]
Three days later.
The weather was sunny.
The rain that had been going on for several days finally stopped.
Although the oncoming sea breeze is still cold, the sun is shining, and it is still a rare weather suitable for travel.
It is also suitable weather for sea navigation.
Twenty large ships lined up in the Free Harbor of Bill and Water, with their equally brilliant golden lacquer, made of black rock wood throughout, the latest cannon from the Skoda Arsenal, the delicate yet practical carved carvings, the hull wide enough to hold two hundred people, and the sails with the Neptune's Trident fluttering in the sea breeze.
The Sea Emperor Trident, the strongest fleet on Blue Flame Island, the strongest fleet in the entire Endless Sea.
They stood silently in the harbor of Bill and Water, like a herd of mighty beasts in the morning breeze.
The great populace, who had already heard the news, surrounded the streets of the harbor, and all wanted to see the great fleet that was known throughout the Endless Sea, protecting their roots.
It is a rare opportunity to get up close and personal with the Sea Emperor Trident, and it is usually only during the annual spring festival that people can see these terrible creations, or far away.
So almost every Bill and Waters man got up early in the morning to get a good seat in the harbor, and as the crowd gathered, some had to climb to the top of a nearby house to get a foothold.
In order to cope with this situation, the Self-Management Council has already sent Bill and Water's City Self-Defense Force to maintain order near the harbor, no one can get close to the mighty ships for ten yards, and the noisy crowd is isolated from the coast, and any attempt to get close will be stopped.
But the enthusiasm of the people was so high that even in the face of the bright knives and loaded muskets, there were still people who were constantly crowded. Shouting, wanting to touch the sea beasts that were ten numbers tall and the entire shadow shrouded them:
"Hey, I'll just touch it, okay, dear guard. I'm not going to cause you any trouble. ”
"Guard, I'm a big fan of the Sea Emperor Trident, I want to touch it in my dreams, do you know that I was almost selected back then?"
"Get out of the way, you get out of the way, let Lao Tzu touch it, so that Lao Tzu will have a big face when he goes back, get out of the way."
"Hey. Ron, is that you? I'm Billy, my good brother, how many years have we not seen each other, let me hug you well, hey, what are you doing? I'm just here to recognize someone, I really know him. Hey, let me go!! ”
……
In the face of such a terrifying enthusiasm of the population. Even the guards with absolute force in their hands are a little unbearable, after all, there are only a few of them, and compared with the black and oppressive crowd, it is completely the rhythm of being swallowed up at any time.
Fortunately, this situation did not last long, and at the far end of the long street, a pair of carriages and horses drove slowly. As the cart and horse approached, the crowd that was originally crowded was also guided by the guards who opened the way, and reluctantly gave way to both sides of the road that could allow the carriage and horses to pass.
No one dared to stop it, just kidding, it was the most elite guns and roses in the entire Blue Flame Island. Even though Bill and Walter are full of outlaws and outlaws, no one dares to go against the self-management committee.
There used to be a group of guys who didn't know the height of the sky, just came from the mainland, relying on their own 100 people, they were rampant on Blue Flame Island, and they didn't even pay attention to the self-management committee in the end, but they evaporated directly from the world the next day, and there was not even a hair left.
And the scavengers, guns and roses sent out by the self-management committee, are nothing more than a small team, less than fifty people.
This shows the strength of this guard and the strength of the self-management association.
The carriage and horses finally stopped in front of the twenty largest ships of the fleet, a total of ten carriages, with Bill and Walter coming down from the front nine, Chen Senran following Planck in the second, and Irelia alone representing Ionia in the last car.
The group didn't stop long, and despite the noise of the crowd around them, they went straight through the line formed by the Self-Defense Forces and boarded the largest main ship, the Dylan, through a thick springboard.
Dylan, this is the name of the legendary Sea Emperor in the mortal world, this ship name was obtained by the first generation of the chief permanent director of the Self-Management Council who built the Sea Emperor Trident, which means invincible and restored the former glory of the Sea Emperor.
On the deck of the Dylan, the head of the entire Sea Emperor Trident, the most special real power figure in Blue Flame Island, Navy Commander Dönitz, was already waiting quietly with a group of people.
It should be said that they were a group of real soldiers, and in the face of thousands of cheers and noise, they looked at the sea so calmly without even blinking their eyes, like a pile of statues that had been blown by the sea breeze.
Navy Commander Dönitz is an old man over half a hundred years old, his beard and hair have turned slightly white, but his eyes are still sharp and sharp, and his whole person also exudes a fierceness that is definitely different from the old temperament of Ferguson, he is like an unsheathed knife, even if the years have ruthlessly worn away the luster of his surface, but his blade is still the same.
"Dönitz has met with all of you from the Self-Management Council." The sharp old man gave Ferguson a chest-beating salute, the thud causing his fist and an old medallion on his chest to snap with a clanging sound.
The standard of his manners was incomparable, and there was nothing wrong with it, and that precision and old-fashionedness were completely contrary to the chaotic, free temperament that Bill and Walter displayed throughout the city, and he was almost like a man from another world.
One, a real admiral.
In fact, it is said that before he became the commander of the Trident of the Sea, Dönitz was really a senior admiral in a large city-state on the mainland, and it seems that he made some serious mistake and had to flee from there.
He came to the chaotic Bill and Walter and brought with him the iron-like rules of the army, and brought the originally loosely disciplined and not really military Trident of the Sea Emperor into a real sea hero.
This is also the reason why he has been able to sit in the position of commander of the fleet for many years.
He's professional enough.
"Sorry, Commander Dönitz." Ferguson smiled, and did not dare to slack off and stepped forward to shake Dönitz's hand.
Although he is the principal of the entire Blue Flame Island, the most powerful person in the entire Bill and Walter, Dönitz has a special status, he is independent of the entire Bill and Walter high-level, no one can directly command him, he only obeys the orders of the self-management committee as a whole.
In a sense, Dönitz is the most powerful person on Blue Flame Island.
So Ferguson had to be careful with him.
"You're welcome, Lord Ferguson, everything is ready to go to sea." There wasn't much emotion on Dönitz's weathered face, and he just replied businesslikely, "Please give the order." ”
"Good." Ferguson nodded, and asked Irelia, who was walking behind the most, "How is it, Ionian Emissary, Venerable Blade Will, are you still satisfied with our ace fleet?" ”
"The military appearance is very neat." Irelia nodded, but today she is also obedient, according to what Chen Senran said to herself that night, she was not in a hurry to express her position, but said lightly, "Go to sea, you always have to see the actual combat, if you embroider a pillow with a bag of grass, then ......"
"Miss, although I don't know what your identity is, please respect my troops." Before Ferguson could speak, Dönitz had already spoken, he frowned, his tone was not very intense, but it was already hidden sharp, "Since the establishment of the Sea Emperor Trident, eighty-two years, there has been no defeat, I can't tolerate comments like embroidered pillows and a pack of grass, and I ask you to take it back." ”
"Mr. Commander, I don't mean to offend, but what is happening today is about our two alliances, and I must see it for me." Irelia didn't back down, after all, she also fought with a knife and a shot on the battlefield, and she was not afraid of Dönitz's iron-blooded demeanor, "If it is indeed as the legend has it afterwards, I will make amends to you." ”
"......," Dönitz was silent for a moment, then nodded, "I hope you keep your promise." ”
"Alright, Commander Dönitz, go to sea, I can't wait to see you teach that new monster a lesson." Ferguson laughed and tried to lighten up the somewhat awkward atmosphere.
"As you say." Dönitz still kept that face, raised his hand, and shouted in a low voice, "The whole army obeys the order and goes to sea." ”
Sea.
With Dönitz's order, the flag flipped over, and the twenty ships that had been standing still turned in unison, and in a riveting sound, they broke through the cold sea and roared forward.
The onlookers on the shore saw the boat set sail and began to squeeze forward.
At the end of the day, the defenders of order were completely unable to stop the enthusiasm of the people, and they could only allow them to break through the defenses and revel on the shore.
Some fanatics, even following the boats, kept running on the shore until they were completely out of sight, and they were still shouting on the shore.
Such a grand occasion is really unprecedented. (To be continued......)
