Chapter 407: Alice Ready to Go to Sea (6K)
After working all night, Shen Sui really experienced the feeling of being squeezed dry.
That's literally not a drop left.
Satisfied, Fremea leaves, going to the sea to help Martina set up the summoning circle of the big squid.
An existence of the size of a big squid cannot be teleported with a single dragon scale, it must be teleported by a special magic circle, and the same magic circle is also needed to summon it in the world where the destination is located - just like when Shen Sui summoned Martina.
Shen Sui's side needs to let Alice cooperate in arranging the magic circle in World No. 8.
Because of the nature of the big squid, this circle must also be placed on the sea.
The sea of World No. 8 is the source of the extraordinary power of this world, and the dangers in it can be imagined.
But if Alice really wants to save World Eight, then it's a risk she has to take.
Shen Sui quickly told Alice that the big squid could purify the Kuroshio, and informed her that Martina's actions required her cooperation.
Without hesitation, Ellie agreed.
She had seen the horrors of the sea with her own eyes, but she did not hesitate in the slightest.
But before that, Alice needs to prepare some necessary materials to set up the circle.
Her rescue operation on the snow field has been completed, so naturally there is no need to continue to stagnate on the snow field and go straight to the ice lake.
Alice is looking for a relatively safe place to enter the dream.
Since it could take a long time to set up the circle this time, Alice also needed to take potions to prolong her sleep.
This potion was specially asked by Alice for Isabella, and it is considered a secret elixir of the blood clan.
With more than a hundred snowfield warriors by her side, Alice doesn't need to worry about being disturbed and attacked by the outside world in her sleep.
After several days of trekking, Alice and her party finally left the snow field and entered the realm of the glacial lake.
On the Dawn Continent, the way to enter the Northland Snow Region is roughly divided into two, one is to start from the Daylight Church and enter the Northland Snow Region from the Ice Lake, and the other is to walk from the sea and land to the White Mountain Range, the Snow Field is too dangerous and has never been a conventional route.
Under the guidance of the snowfield warriors beside her, Alice successfully found a suitable sleeping spot.
However, at such times, it is not possible to do so.
This is where a mysterious man collides with Alice.
The other party almost immediately attacked, wanting to snipe Alice, who was the leader.
Alice is not what it used to be, not only has her strength reached the ninth order, but in the battle with a group of bandits and bullies, Alice can be said to be very well prepared for this kind of sneak attack.
The opponent will kill with one blow, and if it is not successful, he will flee immediately.
However, he underestimated the abilities of Alice's Guardians.
The three twelfth-order big men directly pressed the person to the ground and rubbed it.
"The glory of the Twilight Council! Will shine again!! ”
The man yelled, and then blew himself up.
When Alice saw this scene, she was directly dumbfounded.
What is this TM about?
Why does it have anything to do with the Twilight Council?
The warrior beside him was also confused, looked at Alice, and said, "Our Lady, did I hear the Dusk Council just now?" ”
They are all elites of their respective tribes, and of course they know the Snowfields Tribe's connection to the Dusk Council.
Therefore, the current scene really makes the group confused.
Our Lady is the descendant of the Bishop of Dusk, so this is not a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple
Alice was very calm, and she was very sure that the Twilight Council formed by Claude and Vivien was a rational organization that would never blow itself up at such a moment's notice.
Leaning over, Alice saw the clue.
It's like the ones I've encountered in Andrew's City.
Alice narrowed her eyes and spoke to reassure several of the warriors who had struck out, and explained the Council of Extreme Twilight, which had been born out of the apotheosis propaganda of the God of War Church.
"A bunch of lunatics who have been used by the Church to discredit the once great Ragnarok." Alice made the final definition.
However, the next question is why he is here.
Alice looked up and looked into the distance.
Behind the unobstructed snowfield, there is a snow-white and flawless mountain, the mountains of the glacial lake are not as tall as the mountains of the white mountain range, but they are arranged in an orderly manner, forming a basin of ice and snow around the ice spirit.
Cold, lonely and snow-white.
This is the main color of the snowy region.
After she became the acting pope of the Church of the Lord of Thunder, she had investigated the radical and extreme Twilight Council, and found that no one had discovered their stronghold.
If she didn't find it, and then she didn't want to find out, Alice had no way of knowing.
But if you're really looking for a place on the Dawn Continent that is suitable for hiding a large number of people and can provide the most space for magical research, then the Northland Snowy Region is undoubtedly a good choice.
I'm not going to stab this group, am I?
Alice was so excited that she immediately gave the order and temporarily retreated to the snowfield.
While it is important to find and eliminate the organization that has discredited the Twilight Council, it is also important to set up a summoning circle for the big squid, during which Alice must maintain a restful sleep and have no time to entangle with this organization.
Entering the Ice Lake area so rashly is also irresponsible to the group of followers around him, and it is best to take it slowly. The snow field is a place of destruction, even if the grass has been startled, the other party will definitely not think that Alice will run to the snow field.
Snow fields are indeed dangerous, but danger comes from nature and the environment, and the glacial lake ghost knows what the situation is.
Alice arrives at one of the closest snow tribes to the glacial lake.
After the Great Migration, the area has long since been emptied, but the basic buildings have remained.
Led by the warriors of this tribe, the group took up residence in the shelter.
Alice used her magic to build a bonfire in the middle of the room, and took out enough food, fuel, and magic potions from the ring and placed them in the room, which would ensure that the warriors could move and even fight for the next few days.
"I'll probably sleep for a long time." Alice said to the warriors around her, "Don't let anyone disturb me during this time. ”
Alice rarely spoke to anyone in such a serious tone, and the warriors heard the importance of the matter.
Maybe it's a promotion ceremony or something.
They thought to themselves.
With that, Alice took out the potion she had obtained from Isabella for sleep from the ring.
"Eh" Alice was slightly stunned when she saw the potion, and even looked at it repeatedly for a while.
"How do I look at it, it looks like black tea." Alice muttered to herself with a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth.
And at this time, Claude's voice sounded in Alice's ears, and her voice was full of a hint of helplessness: "It's this shape, it also has a nickname, called the Blood's Sleeping Black Tea." ”
Shen Sui didn't know how to explain it, after all, this was the product of the production team's meme.
Alice blinked in confusion, completely unaware of the point of doing so.
But other than that, she didn't suspect him, and directly poured all the potions in the bottle into her mouth.
This amount is enough for her to sleep for three days and three nights.
After drinking, Alice didn't even forget to taste the taste.
"Well, it's still the taste of lemon tea."
As soon as she finished speaking, Alice fell backwards and fell into a sweet sleep.
More than a hundred warriors sat around Alice, as if they were guards guarding Sleeping Beauty, waiting quietly for the princess to wake up.
When Alice opened her eyes again, she had changed her identity to Finsisti, lord of a noble realm.
"Lord Leonis." A knight in armor bows deeply to Alice.
Alice quickly takes on memories from the Candlefire Phantom and quickly blends into the role.
There is a certain risk in entering the Candle Phantom, and if your acting skills are not good, it is easy for people to notice the difference between you and the Candle Phantom, as if you have traveled through the feeling of taking away.
However, the last thing Alice lacks is acting skills and deception, and she fits into the role almost without any flaws.
The knight in front of him was the guard sent by the Leonis family to Fincisti.
Of course, they were not the most elite knights in the family, and the most elite ones had already been assigned to the family's more favored heirs. Although Finsisti's strength was good, she was really less like a nobleman and more like a knight who guarded the weak, as can be seen from her return to the fiefdom with thousands of refugees.
In this apocalyptic turmoil, mercy and chivalry are precisely the most important things.
There were even quite a few children of the same generation who began to bet on how long Alice would be killed by the underfed bunch of rebels.
Originally, the knights who escorted Finhisti to the realm were hopeless about the prospect. Being sent to a seaside territory in an era of rough seas is undoubtedly a fatal thing.
But soon, Alice changed their perceptions.
First of all, a large amount of food and supplies appeared in the lord's warehouse beyond their imagination, and a steady supply of refugees who came with the lord.
With sufficient food and supplies, these refugees began to work at a rapid pace.
The territory, which was originally in ruins, was regained its vitality in just a dozen days.
The chief knight immediately approached Alice and wanted her to stop supplying precious food to the refugees.
This is not only a waste, but also a very dangerous show-off, which can easily attract the coveting of the surrounding territories, and for today's weak territories, any enemy is dangerous.
Alice refused.
Soon, Alice's cousin came to the door and asked for food by force.
The knights relied on the strange magic potions and new magic weapons that Alice had brought out, and they were able to defeat the knights who had once outnumbered them.
After this incident, although the danger remains, the knights no longer doubt Alice's ability.
Her magic potions and magic weapons are a testament to the strength behind her.
However, powerful potions and weapons still can't completely make up for the gap in combat power. These knights of Alice are the lowest existence in the Leonis family, and they are in danger in the attack of the surrounding territories.
Of course, the war in the fiefdom of Leonis is not only on Alice's side, after the death of the previous patriarch, the split of the Leonis family has been unstoppable, and the division of the territory is already the last struggle of the original patriarch faction, in order not to let his enemies get the Leonnis family so easily.
It can only be said that under such an apocalypse, there is such an internal struggle, and some families and countries are destined to be destroyed.
Just when these knights could no longer sustain themselves, the great lord brought a large number of people with them like divine soldiers, and with these populations came a group of strong warriors.
As for the origin of these people, the lord said very vaguely, only ambiguously saying that they came from the sea.
But the knights knew that now the Black Sea was in an active state, and it was simply impossible to cross the sea and land in such a situation.
But they couldn't find any trace of this group of people entering the territory through other paths, which was really very strange.
However, as this group of warriors joined the fray, Alice's territory quickly emerged from danger and gained a foothold on the seashore.
One of the first things Alice did when she came here was to visit the Snowfield tribes she had brought to this world.
The current territory is still in its infancy, the original buildings have long been destroyed by the sea, and people have begun to build new towns not far from the ruins. However, the construction of the town was not done in a day, and now the foundations have only been hastily laid, and everyone, including Alice, still lives in simple houses made of wood and stone not far from the new town.
"Our Lady!" Alice pinched Fincis with her own face, so in the eyes of the Snow Plains Ministry, Alice did not change much, and the moment she saw Alice appear, everyone saluted Alice with great reverence.
Alice looked at the busy crowd, remembered the dangerous sea in the distance, and said with a wry smile: "I am not a virgin, I brought you here, but I just brought you from a dangerous place to an even more dangerous place." ”
Before bringing the Snowfield Tribe here, Alice and the tribes will tell them in detail about the dangers of the dream world.
The sea could swallow them at any moment.
But they didn't hesitate to come.
For the Snow Tribe, being swallowed by a storm and snow is no different from being swallowed by the sea.
And in this world, they no longer have to endure the cold and the hunger that follows all the time, for them, this is not a choice question at all.
"Nope. We see the devotion of Our Lady to this land. You genuinely want to save this land, as if you had saved us. The old man looked at Alice with bright eyes, "We believe that with your ability, Your Lady, you will be able to save this world one day." If sooner or later it will be saved, what danger is there in this world? ”
Alice opened her mouth, only to find herself speechless.
It's such a strong logic, and I can't find any loopholes at all.
Either way, the Snowland Tribe has now become an important part of Alice's territory and its workforce, and they have begun to build their new home with unprecedented enthusiasm, one that doesn't need to be swallowed up by the wind and snow.
Alice said goodbye to the old man and walked around the town again.
The number of the refugees she rescued was very small, so the tasks here were more laborers, and some of them became Alice's royal merchants, going out of the territory to find a market for Alice to bring back from the Dawn Continent.
The goods that Alice brought over for sale were mainly low-level magic potions from Shen Sui's treasure chest.
Because it is produced by the game system, these potions are all very stable and efficient, although they are only low-level potions, but they are also very rare strategic materials in today's No. 8 world.
Alice received a large amount of currency, which she directly asked the merchants to use to buy the necessities needed for the territory and a large number of magical weapons.
She brought high-grade magical weapons and equipment from the Dawn Continent to a small number of knight guards, and then purchased a large number of cheap magic weapons from the Eighth World to bring back to the Dawn Continent to equip them with the ordinary warriors of the Twilight Legion.
With the destruction of one island after another, a large number of casualties have brought a large number of surplus magic weapons into circulation, and it is believed that it will not be long before the main force of the Dusk Legion can be replaced with equipment with all-magic weapons.
Although these are low-level magic weapons, they are enough to use them against the regular army of ordinary people in the Empire.
"Help me find a boat." Alice finally checked the magic materials in the ring, then called the butler of the Leonis family, who was loyal to her, and gave the order, "I'm going to get ready to go to sea." ”
"Yes."
The butler nodded and was about to leave, but after taking two steps, he suddenly realized that this sentence was wrong, and immediately turned back to Alice in horror and confirmed: "Lord Lord! You repeat? ”
Alice had already guessed the butler's reaction, and immediately repeated: "I'm going to sea, help me prepare a boat." ”
Plop.
The gray-haired butler knelt down directly in front of Alice, and with a cry in his voice, he persuaded, "Miss Finsisty! Don't you think about it! ”
In this world, going to sea when the Black Sea is active is basically equated with suicide.
Therefore, the housekeeper's first reaction was that Alice couldn't think about it.
Alice waved her hand and said, "I haven't thought about it, you can rest assured, I can protect my own lives even for the people of that territory." ”
"But, this is out to sea." The butler said anxiously.
Alice smiled and said, "I'm going to the sea to meet a guest, and it will be the driving force behind the flourishing of our territory." ”
As long as the Kuroshio problem is solved, then Alice will no longer have to worry about the sea behind her.
The Kuroshio Current, the main means of invasion of land by the Black Sea.
"Out to sea. Greet? ”
"Yes, go to sea to meet." Alice said very solemnly, "Just like the group of warriors who came to my aid. ”
Alice's origin of the Snow Tribe is also based on the fact that she came from the sea.
Don't you really say it, this excuse is really useful, give hundreds of dares to people in this world, and don't dare to go to sea just to investigate the origin of a group of people when they are active in the Black Sea.
"Even if it's such a distinguished guest, you shouldn't take the risk to greet it yourself." The butler reminded in a low voice, "And with all due respect, Lord Lord, the Black Sea is active, and anyone coming from the sea should not believe it."
The Black Sea invades the continent not only by the Kuroshio Current, but also by other means, although they are rarely used, they still have a prestige in history, that is, to give power to certain people, so that they can become the spokesmen of the Black Sea and sweep the continent with strong force.
The lord of this world was the power bestowed upon them by the Black Sea at the earliest time.
Alice is very determined, after all, whether it is the snow tribe or the upcoming big squid, she knows more about it than the people of this world.
The steward finally compromised, he was just a steward after all, and he had no power to stop the lord's decision.
However, the search for ships is not a simple matter, and shipbuilding was even a taboo discipline in a world where shipbuilders were seen as the spokesmen of evil.
But, as long as there is the sea, there will be boats.
Dangers and taboos can't stop adventurers from appearing.
Even the Black Sea is an ocean that countless navigators dreamed of conquering.
For thousands of years, the navigators of the Eighth World have risked being arrested and killed by the king, risking being swallowed up by the Black Sea, and have entered the ocean one after another.
It is really they who connect the connections between various lands with their lives.
It is precisely because of them that they found the law of activity in the Black Sea, and at the same time, people have slightly changed their views on ships, but it is still very unrecommended to go to sea during the active period of the Black Sea.
The last round of the Kuroshio engulfed the town, and the accompanying sea destroyed many ships.
But fortunately, after the unremitting efforts of the housekeeper, a complete research ship was found.
In order to be able to sail in the Black Sea, the ship of the Eighth World has an extremely special structure, and ordinary people have no way to drive it.
This is also the reason why the steward agreed to go to the boat.
Even if he had followed the order and found a ship, the lord would not have piloted such a ship.
"My lord, the ship has been found." The steward pointed to the boat in front of him and said, "But I didn't find the boatman, shouldn't I?"
However, before the butler could finish his words, the strange sound of the ship starting was heard.
This is a sign that the ship is about to set sail.
The butler looked up in disbelief.
No!
Even a normal crew member needs at least five years of training and three years of internship to be able to skillfully pilot this kind of research vessel, right?
The lord started it as soon as he went up like this?
Alice stood in the wheelhouse, waved her hand to the butler on the shore, and said, "You go back first!" There's no problem on my side. ”
The butler was stunned for a long time, and finally turned around helplessly.
"Oh! Wait a minute. ”
Could it be that the lord has changed his mind?
The butler turned his head away in surprise.
Alice blinked at the butler and said:
"Remember to help me prepare dinner."
