The harbor of Golden Helm Island is surrounded by two hills, and the entrance is only a few tens of meters wide. On the hill stood two huge towers on the left and right, emitting powerful magic fluctuations, and Lin Qi could see the neatly arranged magical energy ordnance on the towers standing on the bow of the ship.

From the giant Magic Energy Crushing Trebuchet to the extremely fast Magic Energy Crossbow, there are hundreds of heavy equipment on these two towers alone, which is enough siege equipment to arm two field legions. But here, it's just a way to defend a family's port.

These wealthy nobles in Port Vias are rich, they are very rich, and their savings of more than a thousand years have allowed them to have wealth that others cannot imagine. Because they have money, they have access to a lot of fine weapons from the dwarves and the black dwarves of Hell.

Lin Qi looked at the two towers and couldn't help but purse his lips. The Black Tiger Family is also a family with great potential power in Dunerke, but the defense power of the Black Tiger Family's several secret ports is definitely not so strong. Maybe this is the difference in concept, the Black Tiger family also has a strong financial power, but the Black Tiger family pays more attention to active attack, except for an ancestral house, the energy is not used for defense.

But the Golden Helm family is different, they are in the Vyas Commercial Federation, they not only have to guard against those red-eyed pirates and thieves from all walks of life, but even against those hostile forces within the Federation, they must strengthen their own defenses.

The giant ship slowly passed through the waterway between the two hills, and Yun Fenghua and the others on the dock bowed slightly at the same time.

Lin Qi noticed that the port was large enough to accommodate dozens of giant ships on his own, and now more than a dozen huge ships were docking in the port area. These ships all had long and narrow hulls and sharp ramming angles, and it was clear that these ships were warships rather than ordinary merchant ships.

Some of the sturdy sailors were busy on these warships, and when they saw the huge ship that Lin Qi was riding on arrived at the dock, they also stood on the side of the ship and bowed to this side. Almost at the same time, all the sailors put down their work and bowed to this side, and just looking at this gave rise to a solemn aura.

This is a temperament that is very different from the ruffian of the Black Tiger Family, and even if the pirates under the Black Tiger Family see Blackbeard, they will shout and talk about all kinds of meat jokes and all kinds of messy gossip and rumors with Blackbeard. Pirates are pirates, and you don't think they have the demeanor of a regular army.

But these sailors Lin Qi felt from them the temperament of a real imperial regular army.

Lin Qi's eyes flickered, he had never heard of such a powerful naval force in the southern seas. The Black Tiger Family is the most powerful pirate leader in the North Sea region of the mainland, and even the true strength of the Northern Fleet of the Gallic Empire cannot match the water power controlled by the Black Tiger Family. Because of this, Lin Qi had a very thorough understanding of the naval forces in the various seas of the Western Continent, and he had never heard of such a powerful naval army in the southern seas of the southern part of the continent.

Seeming to see Lin Qi's surprise, Yun walked up to Lin Qi and whispered: "This is the family's armed escort team, there are a total of ten giant armed ships, thirty large armed ships, one hundred small and medium-sized armed ships, and fifteen thousand sailors with strict training. This is the number jù fifteen years ago, and now I don't know what the situation is. ”

Lin Qi couldn't help but smack his mouth, okay, fifteen thousand sailors with strict training are naval soldiers, to put it bluntly, they are naval soldiers. In terms of numbers, the navy of the Golden Helm family cannot be compared with the pirates controlled by the Black Tiger Family, but looking at the combat effectiveness and equipment, the navy of the Golden Helm family is far superior to the Black Tiger Family.

"The Golden Duo family is just a disguise family of your family, are there any other disguise families?" Lin Qi looked at Yun curiously.

Wrenching his fingers, Yun pondered for a while, and then whispered to Lin Qi: "The situation fifteen years ago was that there were still three disguised families that were as powerful as the Golden Helm family. In addition, there are forty-seven small and small families in the middle and lower classes that are controlled and used by the family, and these are all peripheral forces, and they have nothing to do with the backbone of the family. ”

The corners of Lin Qi's eyes twitched, there were as many as four disguised families like the Golden Helm Family, wouldn't it mean that more than one percent of the strength of the Vyas Commercial Federation was controlled by the Yun family? If those small and medium-sized families were added, this proportion might rise to two percent. This is all the peripheral forces of Yun's family, how strong is the backbone of his family?

Just when Lin Qien was thinking about this problem, the giant ship had already leaned on the dock, a gangway with a red carpet was lowered, the old man greeted him, and Yun walked over slowly, and was the first to get off the boat.

Yun Fenghua, who had a good appearance, wore a pale golden palace skirt, and had a high bun on his head, respectfully performed an ancient etiquette to Yun. Lin Qi raised his eyebrows, this etiquette he had learned, it was a common etiquette among the nobles of those city-states during the Dark Calendar period. Yun's family still keeps such ancient etiquette, which shows that his family history is long, and it is estimated that it is comparable to the Black Tiger family.

Of course, the Black Tiger family doesn't have so much red tape, after all, it's a family of robbers, what do you do with so much Rausch etiquette?

The clouds are slow

He raised his hand and said indifferently, "Didn't my father come?" ”

Yun Fenghua and the high-ranking members of the Golden Helm family behind her straightened up one after another, and Yun Fenghua said respectfully: "The chief master is handling affairs in the Caesar Empire, and I don't know the news of your safe return for the time being. Several of the second elders are not in the clan, and they all have important responsibilities. ”

Yun frowned: "What about Grandfather?"

Yun Fenghua hurriedly bowed, and said cautiously with great respect and even a hint of fear: "The patriarch is in retreat, striving to break through the peak of the Holy Master and step into a new realm. The matter is very important, and the eldest elder, the second elder, and the third elder lead most of the elders to retreat and protect the Dharma for the patriarch. ”

The old man said in a deep voice: "So, who else is still left in the clan?"

Yun Fenghua saluted the old man again: "Elder Qing, Mingjian, only Deputy Chief Clausen is left in the clan now. ”

Hearing the name Clausen, the old man and Yun snorted coldly at the same time. The old man glanced at Yun Fenghua gloomily: "You're not stupid enough to tell him the news of our return, right?

Yun Fenghua's face turned pale with fright, she looked at the old man Qing tremblingly, and said in horror: "Elder Qing Mingjian, after knowing about His Highness's return, I have sent all the people of the second chief of Clausen Clausen to run errands overnight, and now the people on the island are loyal and reliable.

Yun's brows slowly loosened at this time, and the old man nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, then we are not in a hurry to go to the clan, let's stay here for a few days first." Wait for the chief and several deputy ministers to come back, and then pass on the news of His Highness's return. You've done a good job this time, you're smart, but I don't want to leak any rumors, otherwise you can't afford the consequences!"

Yun Fenghua saluted respectfully, and said "Don't dare"

Lin Qi had already been so shocked that his scalp tingled, what are you kidding, Yun's grandfather is in retreat preparing to break through the realm of the peak of the Holy Master? Isn't he about to break through the so-called 'disciple, realm, and step into a new level?'

Hell, how old is Yun? How old is his father? How old can his grandfather be? How old can his grandfather be at most two hundred years old? How can he break through to the peak realm of the Holy Master? And there are so many elders protecting him, obviously these elders are at least the same strength as Yun's grandfather, right? Even if he is weaker, he will not be anywhere!

It was really a terrifying and terrifying family, and Lin Qi was even more curious about the family to which Yun belonged.

And Yun Fenghua's name for Yun is also very interesting, "Your Highness", which is the name of people in the royal family. If it is a noble family of Zengtong, it is enough to call a young master, and if it is a great nobleman with a history of inheritance, it is very appropriate for a lord to be called: if there is a title, then it is good to call Yun's title directly. But the charm of calling 'Your Highness' is very worthy of Lin Qi's consideration.

It's just that Lin Qi has just arrived, and he doesn't have so much kindness to interrogate these. Anyway, he will naturally see it in the future, and he is not in a hurry to figure it out.

Under the respectful greeting of Yun Fenghua and other high-level officials of the Golden Helm family, and surrounded by two thousand elite private soldiers, Lin Qi and his party got into the carriage and walked along the smooth boulevard towards the depths of Golden Helm Island. Along the way, Lin Qi felt that this place was full of all kinds of magic traps, and once opened, the island was a place of death.

And in the shade of the trees, faint black shadows can be seen flickering at all times, obviously these are the secret guards of the Golden Helm family. Lin Qi couldn't help grinning, how many people did this Golden Rudder family provoke to be so closely guarded in their own private territory?

Think about the Black Tiger Family, they have done a lot of things that hurt the heavens and reason, have you ever seen the Black Tiger Family have such a well-guarded moment?

In the main house of the Golden Helm family in the middle of the Golden Helm Island, a sumptuous and unusual reception banquet has been prepared.

Lin Qi already knew that the territory of the family to which Yun belonged was not Golden Helm Island, but had to be teleported through the teleportation circle of Guò Golden Helm Island. Where is the specific family's territory, this is something that Yun Du is a little confused, and even the young man is a little confused, he can only say the general location of the family's territory, but what is the specific place, that is the top secret that the core high-level of the family and the bloodline can master.

At the reception banquet, Yun occupied the main seat, and the old man Qing and Lin Qi sat beside him left and right.

Yun Fenghua diligently poured wine and persuaded Lin Qi and others to drink, completely treating himself as a slave servant.

After three rounds of drinking, Lin Qi was about to speak when a low cough suddenly came from behind the hall.

In Lin Qi's surprised gaze, a middle-aged man wearing pale gold half-length armor and a scarlet cloak walked out of the back of the hall with a large group of heavily armed men.

The young man stood up suddenly: "Second Chief Clause!"

Yun's face changed suddenly, and he looked at Yun Fenghua sharply, and Yun Fenghua was already surrounded by more than a dozen high-ranking family members, and quickly retreated to the corner of the hall. (To be continued)
