Chapter 119: Out to Sea
The day after talking to Bailey, Edge arrives at the edge of the docks, ready to sail on a merchant ship.
The reason for pursuing Ma Weihan by water was that when he asked the remnants of the Bhikkhu Ye Empire, the remnants of the Bhikkhu Ye Empire told him that Ma Weihan had rushed to the northern battlefield by boat. Perhaps people generally think that the fastest way to go is by land. However, getting north from Namigawa Pier is not fast by land, but by water.
The terrain to the north of Namigawa Pier is dominated by mountains and valleys. It was because of this topography that the huge Namigawa River was formed, allowing the Namigawa River to be connected from the territory of the Kenos Empire to the Biser River in the Kingdom of Relia. And between the valleys, there are countless small rivers. In places with small rivers, there are many swamps.
In such an area, it will take a long time to take a land route, even if there are war horses.
However, if you take the waterway, you can sail out of the Namigawa River to the Thermal Strait outside. Then sail for a few more days in the German Strait to reach the German Valley. After passing through the German Valley to the city of Heyman, it is equivalent to crossing many mountains and swamps. After that, there was a road built by the royal court in the past, and it went straight to the north.
In this way, you can save half a month's time.
Originally, Aegie didn't consider taking the waterway, after all, he had Giroud here, what mountains, rivers and swamps were he afraid of flying into the sky?
But there are naturally necessary reasons to take the waterway.
In addition to Bailey's statement that she was going to chase Ma Weihan with her, another reason was that the remnants of the Bhikkhuno Empire had said that there was a stronghold of the Bhikkhuno Empire on the way to Heyman City along the Namigawa River. Ma Weihan walks by water, and it is inevitable that he will not stay in it. If something happens along the way, Ma Weihan may not necessarily reach the battlefield in the north.
For this reason, Aiji believes that if you want to chase Ma Weihan, you must chase it steadily and accurately. Wouldn't it be a waste of time to find out that he wasn't there when he got to the battlefield in the north?
The last thing Aggie wants to do right now is waste time. He was very short on time, and in addition to expelling the invading army of the Bhikshu Empire more officially, he also wanted to return to the Kingdom of Reylia to marry Kate. Two years later, Kate's 'Princess Coronation Day' is the day of the princess's coronation, and the princess's coronation day is not allowed without a male partner. If Edge doesn't go back, Kate will inevitably become someone else's woman.
Although Kate's feelings for Ageie are true, she has a fatal weakness: being too loyal to the royal family and too obsessed with power and power. She has ambitions, and for the sake of ambition, she can't promise not to do anything that goes against Age.
"Well, maybe it's good to take a boat and see the sea, after all, we haven't seen the sea yet. Do you say, Giroud?" said Age, standing on the dock waiting for Bailey, to Giroud on his shoulder in his free time.
Giroud was also very excited, and said: "You are right, I have never seen the sea, and it is not bad to see it." And I've heard that there's a dragon vein in the ocean, called a sea dragon or something. This sea dragon is derived from the main divine dragon of the ice dragon, and its strength is good, I want to see it. ”
When Aegie heard this, he glared at Giroud and said, "You are a sea dragon and a small miscellaneous fish in the river, you can have it in any strait?! Let me tell you, the purpose of our sea this time is only to catch up with Maweihan faster and more steadily." Although it is a sea trip, the farthest is to reach the German Strait, which is very close to the coast, so there will be no sea dragons. ”
"Besides, even a sea dragon will have an entrenched island. In the vast sea without islands, there will never be a sea dragon. Sea dragons are not dragons that live in the sea. They live, reproduce, and are on the ground. Do you understand?"
When Giroud heard Aggie say this, he flapped his wings and flew up, looked at Aggie in some surprise, and said, "Aji, your knowledge is growing rapidly, I didn't expect to understand so many things!"
Aiji smiled smugly and said, "Usually it's okay to read more books, it's good and harmless." Leah has been telling me for a long time, but I have developed a good habit of 'learning endlessly'. ”
"Well, another meaning of endless learning is that a person is too stupid to keep learning. Do you understand?" said Giroud to Aegie.
Aegie was speechless, how could the essence of human culture that Giroud had learned be all funny and distorted?
"Hey, I don't know what Bailey is doing, the ship is about to leave, why hasn't she come yet?" said Aggie without smiling at Giroud, looking at the big ship that had sailed in front of her.
Giroud was not too worried, and said: "Age, there is a reason why Bailey has not come for a long time. You don't want to think about it, you did that to Bailey last night, it's strange that she wants to see you!"
"I'm speechless about you. You said to Bailey that you wanted to occupy the mana reactor, and it was good that Bailey didn't make a move on you. Although you saved Bailey, the magic reactor is something she has been studying for more than ten years. After more than ten years of hard work, how can you say that you will occupy it?"
"Besides, the magic reactor is terrifying. I'm afraid that not only Bailey, but anyone with a conscience will know how influential it is, and if it falls into the hands of people who are uneasy and well-intentioned, the consequences will be unimaginable. As the person who researched the magic reactor, you should know how much pressure Bailey is on, right?"
Edgey was lectured by Giroud and remained silent. Then he squinted at Giroud, with some contempt, and snorted, "Giroud, you have a dark dragon to tell me your conscience?...... If those people from the Light Forces know about it, they will still think that you have changed your career to become a Light Dragon!"
"Also, your words seem to mean that I'm a big bastard. What I did to Bailey was wrong, right?" said Edge, smirking and looking at Giroud to see what the dragon could retort.
Giroud didn't bother to pay attention to him, and snorted: "I'm really sorry, because someone has not had a trace of 'demon' consciousness even though he is a demon knight, so my body as his contract demon dragon has been deeply affected, and I have gradually become righteous......"
Edge laughed, stopped messing with Giroud, and said, "Giroud, you know, of course I don't mean to occupy the mana reactor. Didn't I take the mana reactor and not give it back to Bailey, because I was worried about Bailey?"
"If Bailey had a magic reactor on her, the people of the Bhikkhu Empire would never let her go. Aggie said with a frown, worried.
"Then why don't you just tell Bailey?, why do you have to hide your kindness and be glared at by Bailey?" Giroud didn't understand what Edge's was doing.
Edge smiled lightly, shook his head, and said, "What do you say, huh...... Some human feelings are so inexplicable. ”
Giroud looked at him and didn't speak. It admits that it does not understand these complex human feelings, which is inexplicable! whether it is a man or a woman.
Seeing that the big ship was about to start, Bailey still didn't come, and Ageie was a little worried, and looked around. Only then did I see Bailey running over with Ronna.
After Bailey ran over, she looked at Edge and said, "What I want to explain to you is that I was late because I was dealing with some things just now. If this has caused you any inconvenience, please forgive me! I won't say much about the rest. ”
"And, let me tell you, I'm going to take it back when it comes to the mana reactor. Whatever you do, you'd better be careful, huh!"
Edge smiled at her and shrugged that it was okay. If Bailey can retrieve the mana reactor from herself, it means that she is capable. If she had that ability, then she wouldn't have to worry too much.
Edge had already made up his mind that he wouldn't use the mana reactor at will. As much as he wanted the Mana Reactor to be the source of magic for the evolution of Moros Blade, Bailey was burdened with a lot of things, and he didn't want Bailey to be distracted or even hated by something like this.
Because he had saved Rhone before, Rona had come to him to thank him. Among them, Rona slightly reveals some things about Bailey to him. After he understood, he felt pity for Bailey.
Of course, his pity for Bailey does not have an ambiguous element of men and women. That's just a pure desire to protect a person.
Aggie never lacked that will.
Bailey's expression was greatly relieved when she got on the big boat, and she closed her eyes and enjoyed the breeze from the ocean.
She has already taken care of the matter at the Namigawa Pier. Although the Namigawa Pier had previously become a colony managed by Bon, the original ruler of the dock was still there. He was a well-meaning middle-aged man who had been a sailor and had joined the navy and was experienced in managing the wharf, which alternates between land and sea.
If it weren't for the army of the Bhikshuno Empire rushing in and the Namigawa dock without a defensive army, he would not have been caught by Boang and locked in a dungeon.
Now that the Namigawa pier has been liberated, he has been freed from the dungeon. Bailey appreciates his talent and leaves the affairs of Namigawa Pier to him again. After the occupation of the Bhikshu Empire, he had realized that he should pay attention to training a group of troops in normal times in case the Bhikshu Ye Empire's army attacked again.
It is good to have such an awareness. It is precisely because of this that Bailey can go with peace of mind. Otherwise, as a princess of the Kenos Empire, she was still very worried about her people.
Now that she and Aegie have gone out to sea to pursue Mavihan in pursuit, she is determined to take back the design scroll of the magic reactor. Now the matter of the magic reactor is what she is most concerned about and worried about.
