Chapter Twenty-Six: Mission Impossible
"Atlantis is a city-state, so the island on which it is located will not be smaller than a certain limit, and at the same time, the city-state has complete control over the entire island, so the area of the island will not be larger than a certain limit. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Magellan thoughtfully "let me think about it, in this way, there are still many islands to find, especially ...... Some have cities on them. ”
"In this day and age, it's disappointing to have no sewers in a city," the countess laughed and looked sideways at the woods at the edge of the square, "so I invested in a construction team with professional personnel to tailor the sewer system for each city." ”
"Indeed...... If this were the case, it would be impossible for the ruins of Atlantis to escape the search. Magellan smiled and shook his head, "You're really rich." ”
"It's a very profitable business, and if you want to take a stake, I won't say no. ”
"And then you're going to start searching for all the remaining eligible islands?"
"That's right. Actually, after my failure, I thought of a possibility. That is, if there were still people living on the island of Atlantis, would they make all the guests think it was a desert island in order to maintain their isolation life?"
"Only magical creatures can do it, and it's a magical race as powerful as goblins. ”
"The inhabitants of Atlantis fit the bill perfectly, so I had to assemble a fleet and set out on a trip. ”
Magellan shook his head, his heart full of emotion: "Although I didn't expect it at all, I'm really happy to see you here." ”
"Thank you. The countess smiled and bent gracefully, "But now it seems that we are trapped together." ”
"There's always a way. Magellan said and looked at Tara.
"Let's go back first," the countess looked at Tara as well, "we need some time to plan." ”
Magellan nodded, and the two walked towards Tara.
"You're done whispering?"
"Let's go to lunch, I've heard a long story, I'm hungry. ”
Tara smiled, "I like you more and more, I really hope you can fall in love with me soon." ”
......
The meal was still eaten by the campfire, but the food became more refined, with mushrooms taking the place of meat as the main protagonists.
"So now we have only one problem, the queen needs a lover. ”
"The man must be a hero, and as long as he and at least one of the queens are in love with each other. ”
"I don't know much anyway...... The Queen had already asked us to prepare for her wedding with her," Tara pointed to the countess, "why do you want to ask you if you want to?"
Magellan felt that he should have been surprised, but not so surprised.
"So, the queen has feelings for the Earl, but she's not sure?"
"That's right. ”
Magellan casually put a piece of roasted mushroom in his mouth: "And what about you, Tara, do you love the Queen?"
Tara froze for a rare moment, as if she didn't hear what Magellan was saying, "It's useless, I haven't passed the trial yet." ”
"How about we help you through the trial?" Magellan smiled, "and there is no one more suitable to be a priest than you." ”
Tara smiled, "Let's put it this way, if I want to prove that I am a hero, I must pass the trial of proving that I am a great hero from you. In short, there is only one path ahead of you. ”
"Why are your trials so harsh?"
"We, the Amazon, are the most powerful fighters in the world. ”
"It was in distant antiquity, in the world known to Theros, that times had changed. ”
Tara gave Magellan a dangerous smile at saying this, and rested her elbow on a large rock: "Come and try." ”
Magellan smiled and walked over and shook Tara's hand.
"I'm counting one, two, three. ”
"Good. ”
"One, two, three!"
Magellan's face was hideous, and the blue veins on his forehead jumped up, and Tara looked much better across from him, at least his face was quite natural.
But in the end, the two were evenly matched.
"I confess......" Tara, though not gasping like Magellan, could not utter a complete sentence, "you are a good fighter......"
Magellan could speak for a long time: "Love should not be to pray to God, but to strive to get it." Let's go through that trial together. ”
Tara laughed, out of breath and collapsed to the ground.
"Did you know that even with the divine power bestowed by Athena to give the heroes who face the trials the power of the gods, there are still many heroes who die in the trials? ”
"Athena doesn't give too many restrictions to trials, we can find help. ”
"Helpers......" Tara sighed, "we can't protect them, that's sending them to their deaths." ”
"I must have a few companions who are willing to die with me, by the way, they must have been captured by you. ”
"Hmph......" Tara laughed, "I can't tell you this......"
"I have two behemoths that can handle even the kind of big ones that leave footprints in the morning, and the only thing they need is enough people to get them moving. Magellan struggled to his feet and went to eat again.
Tara was stunned for a long time with a confused look: "I want to see those two big things of yours first." ”
"Wait until I'm done eating. Magellan said with his mouth stuffed into his mouth.
......
By the sea, in front of the empty camp.
Tara stands in front of Magellan, looking at the Queen Victoria's Revenge and the warships of the Royal Francie Navy.
"These are two clippers with siege weapons on them, capable of piercing through walls. Magellan explained to a slightly dazed Tara, "As long as we have enough men to operate these two ships, we can even take a port city." ”
After a long time, Tara let out a sigh of relief: "This trial is to choose one of two powerful monsters, a hydra, or a sea monster, which is a powerful monster that only gods can fight. ”
"Neither of these should be fine," Magellan smiled, "even if it's a hydra, I can lure it to the seashore." ”
Tara shook her head and didn't speak.
Magellan didn't say anything more, and took the countess aboard the Royal Navy warship with Tara.
"The deck is an essence treated magical material, strong enough to compare to a wall of the same thickness, and very light. ”
"The curves of the hull take into account the resistance of the current, allowing the speed of the voyage to be maximized. ”
"Most of the power comes from the Essence Furnace, so you can move freely even when there are no currents or sea breezes. ”
"The cabin is divided into separate spaces, and even if one thing is damaged, the whole ship will not be sunk. ”
Finally, Magellan pointed to the side cannons: "Siege weapons." ”
Tara remained silent.
