Chapter 862: Ascending the Throne (Part II)

The sea is calm, above the blue sky, the bright sun is hanging high, and the waves shining are shining with golden light. "Man, what are you doing in such a hurry? The battle ahead cannot be stopped for a moment, our ships are faster, slower, it doesn't matter, as long as we arrive before the appointed time. Several merchant ships responsible for transporting weapons and supplies are moving fast and slow on the sea.

On the deck of the first merchant ship, there were several benches covered in soft leather, and several people were lying on the benches, lazily basking in the sun.

They were a fleet of ships contracted for logistical tasks, coming from an island in the rear and destined for the headquarters of the human coalition.

Because in the middle of this journey, there will be no danger of war at all, and their mission can be said to be very easy and enjoyable.

However, one of them followed Jun Zhan and offered to speed up the ship, and once this proposal was made, it was opposed by several others. "Isn't it good that we're driving normally now? If we speed up, we have to adjust all the plans, and maybe we will make mistakes, and it will be more than worth the loss. ”

"Don't be in a hurry, you have also seen that we are loaded with weapons and materials, these things are urgently needed on the battlefield, if you don't send them over quickly, in case the war is delayed, you and I, as well as them, will be punished. I've been working hard for so many years to get through to where I am now, and I don't want to start all over again, step by step. The chief, who had asked for the speed, sighed faintly and said.

"Man, although it is true to say so, but we went out this time, we all came according to the plan, the time of the trip was very early, there was time on the road, even if the boat was normal, and when we arrived at the destination, it would only be early, not late, and it would not delay your work. The man who had spoken before stretched lazily on the bench, turned over and changed into a more comfortable position, and said while basking in the sun.

"However, I always feel ...... Somewhat uneasy. The officer who asked for the speed of the increase sat up in his chair, he looked at the sea in the distance, and sighed softly: "I always feel that our mission this time may not be able to ...... Alas, forget it, don't say it, don't say this kind of frustrating words. Shaking his head, he was silent.

"You just have too many hearts, our current mission can be said to be the easiest in the coalition army, how can there be a problem? Do you miss your wife? Do you want to go home soon?" The others immediately joked when they saw that he looked depressed.

This trouble, that person's mood suddenly slowly improved, although he still felt a little awkward in his heart, but after a while, he got rid of it and forgot about it.

Their small transport fleet sailed on the sea for a few more days, and finally, the big island of the headquarters of the human coalition appeared in front of them. "Finally arrived at the place, everyone was in good spirits, and the supplies were sent to the island in a while, "We can go back." ”

At this time, it was morning, and several fleet commanders were dressed and stood on the deck majestically, beckoning the crew and preparing to work on the shore for a while. "Report sir, there seems to be an accident on the headquarters island. A soldier who was in charge of looking out at the situation ahead suddenly ran over and reported to the men. "What do you mean?" said one of them.

The other people, hearing the soldier's report, all looked curiously in the direction of the island, and at this time, their faces also changed. "Something's wrong, why is there black smoke everywhere on the island?" said one of the chiefs, pointing out the anomaly on the island. "Really, what's going on?" the others looked over carefully, and they all saw clouds of black smoke rising upwards from the island. "Will it ...... Is there a fire on the island?" a man guessed cautiously. He really couldn't think of any other reason to explain the scene in front of him.

"How is it possible to have a fire?" another person questioned, saying: "Even if there is a fire, it is impossible for so many places to catch fire at the same time, right? Moreover, if there is a fire on the island, will no one put out the fire? Now in this situation, it is obvious that the situation on the island has changed! What should we do? Do we land now, or do we leave?" In the last sentence, he was asking for everyone's opinions.

"Now that we're here, let's go up to the island and have a look, but, to be on the safe side, let's send a small team of men to the island to investigate, and if anything happens, it's easier to retreat. Someone suggested it. "Yes, I agree. "I mean, too." "Once the decision is made, it's a matter of choosing the personnel.

To be on the safe side, they only sent a team of seven people, all seven of whom were thieves, and if such a person encounters any situation, the probability of escape is much higher than that of others.

What's more, in the army, people who were born as thieves can be said to have the lowest status, and when they encounter dangerous probing situations, high-ranking officials in the army will send such people, and everyone is used to it. A small boat was quickly lowered from the main battleship, and the boat fell into the water, and several thieves-turned-soldiers jumped from the main battleship, rowed the small boat, and headed towards the island.

On this side, the people on the battleship were eagerly waiting for a result, and after a long time, they saw that the people who had just gone down all ran onto the boat with a panicked face and rowed back in a hurry. "What's going on on the island?" asked the men as they returned to the battleship from the boat.

"The coalition forces have been defeated, the headquarters has retreated, and we have not received news yet. A soldier said in great panic: "On the island, there are not many people in the scriptures, and they are all responsible for burning materials and materials that cannot be taken away so as not to be obtained by the elves." In his opinion, this incident was very incredible, and the entire coalition army had failed? "Quick, come ashore, I'm going to go over and see for myself what's going on!" one of the fleet officers, who was the first to react, hurriedly shouted. Everyone else reacted at this time, and they all said that they wanted to go over and see for themselves. When these warships all docked, the people who went up were dumbfounded.

There are not many people left on the whole island, and some of the remaining people are in a hurry, they are busy lighting fires, burning houses and even warehouses that have been built. At this time, most of them were soldiers, and they couldn't find the right person to ask.

I found Katajo. 1, only to find a captain, the captain looked at the mark, said: "Everyone, the headquarters has retreated, the specific situation, here is a document, you can watch, we are very busy, we want to burn everything, and retreat before tonight, so we will not accompany us." As he spoke, the captain reluctantly saluted, and immediately beckoned the soldiers to continue their work. In the caravan, a priest took the documents and beckoned everyone to come and see.

Because the document carries a power unique to the Church of the Lord of Radiance, this power is not strong, and the probationary priest can leave a mark, but except for the priest of the church, no one else can forge the power of document J1. Therefore, it is often used as an anti-counterfeiting mark for documents and letterheads. Hearing the pastor's voice, the others gathered. At this time, the file had been opened, and everyone was dumbfounded when they saw the contents of the document.

It turned out that this document was left by the members of the headquarters, and there was a lot of content in it, but one thing has been clearly pointed out, that is, the human alliance forces that had gathered here had been annihilated by the elves. In other words, the main force of the human alliance has already perished! Looking at the time of payment, the time for the headquarters to retreat and leave here is only two days, and the whereabouts are unknown. "How is this possible!" Faced with such news, everyone present was full of shock. "No, it can't be, how is that possible? How can the human coalition perish?" the priest of the current letter was particularly difficult to accept.

In his opinion, his own church is extremely powerful, and in this war, the human alliance is led by his own church, in this case, how can the human alliance be completely destroyed? This is not a fact, this is not a fact, this pastor, can't help but be stunned. "Retreat quickly!" The coalition army is destroyed, and the elf may be killed at any time, after figuring out this truth, everyone's expressions became nervous.

They had no fear before, and that was because the island was home to a powerful human coalition, and they didn't fear danger to their side.

Now the situation is different, this is no longer a safe place at all, and the more they stay, the more dangerous it is!

So, the group of people immediately pulled the priest who was as stunned as a wooden chicken, and hurriedly got on the boat, and without even daring to breathe, they turned the bow of the boat and headed towards the way home in a very high way!

Along the way, they were afraid that they would be exterminated by the elves, but fortunately they were safe and sound along the way, and all of a sudden, they reached the coastal country. When I got to the dock, I realized that the news of the destruction of the main force of the human fleet had been spread. Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.

The news about the demise of the entire human fleet has spread very quickly, and in only a few days, it has already spread half a continent. The coastal zone, in particular, is almost relieved. Almost everyone who got the news was shocked. This is definitely something that shook the continent, and it has not happened for thousands of years. "What do you mean? The human fleet is wiped out?" Nick was taking a leisurely walk in a garden behind the town hall when he got the news, to strengthen his physique. When the news came from the mouth of an official who arrived in a hurry, Nick's face suddenly changed.
