A column of water rose into the sea not far in front of the frigate at the front, and then scattered high in the air, turning into a mass of splashes.

"When the order goes down, they all stop. Director Aldrich frowned deeply as he looked at the blackened fleet on the sea in the distance. "What the hell does the Candela Imperial Navy want to do?"

After leading the Third Fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce Transport Fleet out of Nissi Harbor, Director Aldrich originally thought that the weather was clear and the sea was calm, and if nothing else, he would be able to enter the predetermined sea area before dark this year, and he could officially start construction on the first predetermined island tomorrow.

In this way, the whole plan has a good start, and my mission this time can be regarded as a perfect completion.

However, less than 300 kilometers from Nissi Harbor, he encountered a large fleet flying the flag of the Candela Imperial Navy.

At first, Director Aldrich didn't think this was anything unusual, thinking that the Candela Imperial Navy had some mission, or that it was just an ordinary exercise, so he was ready to say hello and go around and continue his journey.

Unexpectedly, when they were just about to approach, the Candela Imperial Navy on the opposite side projected several boulders, which just smashed on the sea in front of them, full of warning.

This came as a big surprise to Director Aldrich.

Since the Candela Imperial Navy purchased three frigates from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, the two sides have been working together in some way, and the relationship between them is quite good.

The transport fleet and convoy of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce often encounter the Candela Imperial Navy in this southern sea, and they never have anything wrong, on the contrary, they get along very well.

Why this time. But the Imperial Navy of Candela suddenly launched an attack on its own side?

Director Aldrich looked up. I found myself on a large cargo magic steamer, flying the flag of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. It was very conspicuous that it was impossible for the Candela Imperial Navy to admit a mistake.

While he was wondering, a white frigate slowly sailed out of the Candela Imperial Navy fleet on the opposite side.

Moments later, Director Aldrich's communications communicator from the large cargo magic steamer hurried over with a magic call box.

"Your Excellency, I have received a request for communication from the Imperial Navy of Candela. ”

Director Aldrich's brow furrowed even deeper, and he took the magic phone box and pressed one of the buttons on it.

"Hello, this is Aldrich, the director of the transportation plus of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. May I ask who is the Lord of the Imperial Navy of Candela on the other side?"

A deep but loud middle-aged man's voice rang out from the magic call box.

"This is Mark Louis, commander of the First Fleet of the Candela Imperial Navy. Director Aldrich, on behalf of the Imperial Navy of Candela, I now issue an official warning to you that the waters south of the Kingdom of Ruerson are now under a total blockade by the Imperial Navy, and no ships are allowed to pass through them without the permission of the Empire. Your fleet has already violated this ban, but for the sake of your affiliation with the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, I can open the net and allow you to return to the Duchy of Stantin. ”

"Huh?" Director Aldrich blinked, barely believing his ears. "You said you blocked the southern seas of the Kingdom of Luxon?

"Of course. Commander Louis's voice became very stern. "This is a decision of the Imperial War Department, and you have no right to resist. I'll give you ten minutes. Withdraw from this sea area immediately, or you will bear the consequences. ”

"At your own risk?" Director Aldridge couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Although the fleet of the Candela Empire on the other side has more than a hundred ships. But he really doesn't take the other party very seriously.

Because the fleet of the Candela Imperial Navy on the opposite side only has a total of three frigates purchased from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce before, compared to the ten frigates owned by his own side, the combat effectiveness is not at the same level at all.

The only thing to worry about is that the other two large cargo magic ships are much slower than the frigates, and they are not equipped with many military magic machines, so they basically do not have combat effectiveness.

In the event of a fight, these two large cargo magic ships will probably become a liability.

However, the problem of combat effectiveness is not the main problem, the main problem is that he cannot really fight with the fleet of the Imperial Candela Navy.

Even if this naval battle can be won, it will be equivalent to the New Flying Chamber of Commerce officially declaring war on the Candela Empire.

The consequences of this were so severe that Director Aldrich didn't dare take it seriously.

After thinking for a moment, Director Aldrich said tentatively: "Commander Louis, we are just carrying out ordinary trade activities according to the Chamber of Commerce's plan this time, and it will not cause any hindrance to your ban, right?"

"No!" Commander Louis replied in a categorical voice from the magic call box. "You have violated this prohibition by entering this sea area during this time. If it weren't for the sake of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the first thing we would do now would be to sink you. I warn you again, get out of this sea at once!"

Director Aldrich was slightly angry in his heart, but when he looked at the more than a hundred sea ships on the opposite side and the flag of the Candela Imperial Navy hanging on it, he could only smile bitterly and sigh dejectedly: "Okay, let's go back." Commander Louis, I will definitely go back and tell the Elders the truth about what happened today. ”

This is a small counterattack that he is unwilling to revolve.

However, Commander Louis was unmoved, and a sneer came from the magic call box.

"Even if President Xu himself is here, he will only make the same choice as you do now. ”

Director Aldrich shook his head helplessly and nodded to his lieutenant beside him.

"The order goes down, and all of them retreat to Port Nissi first. ”

The two large cargo magic steamers and ten frigates belonging to the Third Fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce turned around and prepared to return to Nissi Harbor.

As soon as it started, two loud bangs suddenly sounded nearby.

Aldrich turned his head in amazement, and saw two thick droplets of water falling one after the other.

He was stunned. Pick up the magic call box again. "Commander Louis." What do you mean by that?"

Commander Louis's cold voice rang out from the magic call box.

"Director Aldrich, did your fleet just leave the Kingdom of Luxon?"

"So what?" Director Aldrich swallowed the words back into his stomach and forced himself to calm down before asking in a deep voice, "Does this have anything to do with you?"

"You should know that we, the Candela Empire, have imposed a total blockade on the Ruerson Kingdom, and if you have just left the Ruerson Kingdom, you have violated this ban. I have reason to suspect that your ships contain manpower and supplies related to the Kingdom of Ruersun. I now ask you to stop immediately. Accept our inspections. ”

"It's just too deceitful!"

Director Aldrich was furious, but reason told him not to be angry now, or he would be vindicated.

After taking a deep breath, Director Aldrich forced himself to regain his composure and said in a deep voice, "Commander Louis, your suspicions are unreasonable. We can leave as you ask, but it is impossible for you to come on board and search. ”

"If you refuse this request, we will consider you to be hiding something. Commander Louis said coldly, "If you are still unwilling to cooperate, then don't blame us for being rude." ”

"Your Excellency, Director. Those ships of the Candela Empire moved. The deputy on the side suddenly whispered a reminder.

Director Aldrich glanced up and saw that the fleet of the Imperial Candela Navy in the distance was indeed slowly moving. Gather around this side.

Judging from this posture, it is clear that they intend to surround their side and leave no room for escape.

"Director, what now?"

Director Aldrich squinted his eyes at the approaching fleet of the Candela Imperial Navy on the opposite side, breathed hard a few times, then pulled his deputy and whispered in his ear: "If there is any accident, the ten frigates will immediately choose to break through without hesitation." ”

The deputy was stunned: "What about these two cargo ships?"

"These two ships are too slow to run, so I'll leave them alone. Speaking of this, Director Aldrich gritted his teeth, only to feel a pain in his heart.

Since serving as the head of the Third Fleet of the Transport Fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, he has never let any problems with his ships, and he can't imagine that if there is a problem for the first time now, he will have to directly abandon two expensive large cargo magic ships, and the loss is not small.

"But ......"

"Nothing. "Director Aldridge intended the words of the deputy. "There's no way we're going to war with the Candela Empire, so we're on the run now. ”

The deputy's face changed, and in the end he could only nod his head and accept the order.

"Hurry up and prepare, I'll delay a little longer. Director Aldrich patted his deputy's shoulder and motioned for him to leave, before opening the magic phone box again. "Commander Louis, please stop, I am willing to accept your request. ”

"Oh?" Commander Louis seemed surprised. "Would you like to let us upload a search?"

"Yes. Director Aldrich responded. "But this matter is too serious, if I agree without permission, I will definitely be punished when I return to the Chamber of Commerce. So I'd like you, Commander Louis, to give me some time to get in touch with the President or the CEO and explain the situation. ”

"Contact President Xu?" said Commander Louis's tone, revealing a hint of incredulity. "It's more than 2,000 kilometers away from the Duchy of Stantin, how do you contact President Xu?"

"Our Chamber of Commerce has a special method that allows me to contact the Elder in a short period of time. Commander Louis, can you give me half an hour?"

"Are you sure you'll get a reply from President Xu in half an hour?"

"Sure. ”

There was silence in the magic phone box for a moment, and then the Candela Imperial Naval Fleet, which was originally approaching this side, slowly stopped its pace to continue approaching.

However, these ships still spread out on the surface of the sea, enclosing all the ships of the Third Transport Fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.

"I'll give you half an hour. If there's no response after half an hour, then I won't wait any longer. Commander Louis's cold voice rang out again in the magic call box.

"Good. ”

Director Aldrich agreed, and a moment later, a magic airship suddenly flew into the air from Director Aldrich's large cargo magic steamer, and flew quickly towards the Endless Sea in the northwest direction. (To be continued......)
