Chapter 37: The City of the Free

After carefully thinking about the situation on the battlefield, Chen Sheng calmly gave orders one after another.

"Right full rudder! Turn the turret to the right, ready to aim! Salvo! ”

I saw the 120-meter-long Star turn in a big circle in the sea like a steel beast, and turned sideways against the three ghostly ghost ships chasing after it with its muzzle.

Yong's sideways artillery fire maximizes firepower.

Cannons rang out! Under flares!

Three ghost ships that can withstand several shells melt under flares like summer ice and snow.

"It works! The main cannon continues to be reloaded with flares! Chen Sheng said happily.

Six flares lit up again above the three ghost ships. At the same time, Lu Youcai, who was controlling the ghost ship, vomited blood, and at the same time ordered the ghost ship to dive and evacuate.

As soon as the order was given, Lu Youcai fainted instantly.

"Captain! The ghost ships besieging the Great Luo Sect have also been withdrawn! Ling Yunzi, who has been monitoring the overall situation, reported.

"Chase or not!" The Elder of the Five Sons of Amagi asked.

"Don't chase it! We're too far away. And we just caught them off guard, and once they dived, we didn't have a good way to take them. Chen Sheng said.

Half a month later.

The harbor of Liberty City is bustling with all kinds of ships.

The City of Freedom is attached to the Blue Moon Country, which is located on a large peninsula.

The peninsula is located in the south-central part of the East-meets-West, and is also a gateway to the East-West route.

The Founding Emperor of the Blue Moon Kingdom was very business-minded and built a liberalized commercial port on this necessary route, facilitating the trade of merchants on the east-west route.

In this way, merchant ships from the East and West no longer have to travel long distances across the continent to sell goods, greatly reducing the risk.

And the Blue Moon Country has also grown rapidly due to the commercial tax revenue of the port.

In the harbor of Liberty City, the domineering appearance of the Star has attracted the attention of many people.

The modern sci-fi shape of the Star is originally peculiar, there is no sail, and with the addition of a 120-meter, slender steel hull, ordinary people can see the extraordinary shape of the Star at a glance.

"Old man Xu! What kind of ship do you see today? A dock coolie asked an old man with thinning hair and a gaunt body.

"Warship!" Old man Xu looked at the Star and thought.

"! All I said was that it was a warship. You've seen the merchant ships built so slender that they wanted to round their cabins just to carry a little more cargo. "Another dock coolie said.

"Compared to this ship, the warships we have seen before cannot be called warships." Old man Xu said.

"Is it really that powerful? I see that the hull of this ship is so thin, it won't break when it encounters a big wave! The others questioned.

"Broken? No way? Based on my many years of experience in shipbuilding, this ship is definitely made of pure steel. Old man Xu said with a pilgrimage expression.

"Steel? Impossible! To build such a big ship, I guess all the steel in our Free City City will be enough! It will be as extravagant as that force. The other coolies were surprised.

At this time, the Star was on board.

"Your master, they've settled down?" Chen Sheng asked curiously.

"Settle in! They have arrived at the Eastern Qin Empire, and have already connected with the personnel of Eastern Qin. Qin Xueyan replied.

The hundred-legged insect died but did not stiffen, although the Lu family's calculations hit the Great Luo Sect hard.

When Chen Sheng arrived at the battlefield, there were only a few dozen disciples left in the Great Luo Sect, the sect leader Xiao Zhan was hit hard, the Great Elder was killed in battle, and the Second Elder and Qin Yueyao were also injured.

Even Yingzhou Island was taken away by the Lu family, and the disciples who remained on the island needless to say have been cleaned. Only a small number of intelligence officers remain.

However, the Great Luo Sect is not a local force in the Nansha Sea, and it came to the sea 200 years ago when the Great Luo Sect and Tianjimen failed in the struggle for power on the mainland.

Therefore, the Great Luo Sect has never given up the opportunity to return to land.

The focus of the development of the Great Luo Sect has always been on the land of the Eastern Qin Empire, and this time the Lu family's attack happened to help the Xiao sect leader, and most of the people killed in the battle were conservatives who did not want to return to the land.

On the main continent, the Eastern Qin Empire was located in the easternmost part of the continent, and immediately adjacent to it was the Southern Song Dynasty in the southeast of the continent.

The Nansha Islands have been occupied by the Lu family, only Tianjimen is struggling to support, the Lu family has a lot of power in the Southern Song Dynasty, and the navigation industry of the Eastern Qin Empire is not developed.

Therefore, the Free City of the Blue Moon Country, which is located at the boundary between the Eastern and Western routes, has become the best place for the Star.

After paying the docking fee for half a month, Chen Sheng and Qin Xueyan took the five sons of Tiancheng and disembarked into the City of Freedom like a young master and a young lady from a wealthy family.

After a period of recuperation, Chen Sheng's face was red, his skin was white, and his blood was vigorous.

Coupled with the baptism of a few battles, there is a touch of stability. Under Qin Xueyan's brocade clothes and jade clothes, the two of them are like a pair of beautiful people.

Qin Xueyan looked at the different complexions coming and going on the dock, and the blonde and blue-eyed Westerners were curious.

Chen Sheng, who crossed over from the Blue Star, had a normal face.

"Miss Qin Xueyan! You are the first son of the Great Luo Sect, you haven't even seen Westerners! Chen Sheng asked.

"Of course not! I usually practice in the sect and rarely go down the mountain, plus Yingzhou Island is deep in the Nansha Sea, not on the shipping route, and no Western merchant ships have come for decades. Qin Xueyan said.

"What are we doing here?" Qin Xueyan asked curiously.

"Go to school!" Chen Sheng said.

"Go to school! You didn't drink too much, did you? Miss Qin looked surprised.

"That's right! I heard Ling Yunzi say that the Blue Moon Kingdom has built a Freedom Academy in this Free City. There is no threshold, as long as there is money, everyone can enter and study. I want to expand my knowledge of the formation so that I can transform the Star into a formation. Chen Sheng said.

Ever since he saw the Lu family's big formation warship, Chen Shengjiu was very enthusiastic about the way of the formation.

However, all the sect forces cherish themselves, and the only place where they can learn the knowledge of the formation is the Freedom Academy in this free city.

"Wouldn't it be enough to find a formation mage? Why bother! Qin Xueyan said.

"I'm not at ease when I hand it over to someone else!" Chen Sheng said.

Thinking of the methods that the Lu family had done in the Great Sect's warship formation, Qin Xueyan felt a chill.

After paying the entrance fee, the group successfully entered the Free City.

There is no difficulty for the city gate guards in the novel, and there is no gentleman who hits people on horseback, the hero saves the beauty, and then fights the small and the old, and then there is a wonderful battle.

The last round of missile extermination, shouting who else! Chen Sheng was tasteless.

Chen Sheng, who had just entered the gate, looked at the bustling and quaint streets and was confused, not knowing where to go. At this moment, a group of shawls crowded over like sharks.

"Childe! Miss! First time in Liberty City? Do you want a guide? It's only a tael of silver a day! ”

"Don't listen to him! I only need 90 wen. ”

"I'm 80!"

"I'm 70!"

"Get out! Shouting 70 don't mess up the market. 70 a day, I think you want to take your employer to a black store to make more! The others said angrily.

After some careful investigation, Chen Sheng finally chose a 15 or 6-year-old boy with clever eyes as a guide. After some exchanges, everyone learned about the condition of some teenagers.

This young man's name is Li Shi, his father is a sailor who was shipwrecked and disappeared, and then his mother remarried, and now he is dependent on his grandfather. Because I grew up in the Free City and was familiar with everything in the city, I thought of becoming a guide.
