Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Humphreys and the materials they left behind were enough for six hundred people for a long time, and after taking over the control of the two black knights that had been repaired, and lightly removing the self-detonation circle on their core that had made them dare not resist Eames, Craig gave them and the eighth-order necromancer an order to protect the island, and left Kasu Island with Leviathan temporarily. And in this way, it also made Leviathan more bold and directly ordered the eighth-order necromancer to take Cheyenne and them to the cemetery to carry out the fast cultivation of the dark power.
At the same time, on the shores of Brion, a combined fleet of hundreds of ships of the Island Alliance and Angus, under the insistence of its commander-in-chief, Sorop Haojiang, reached the waters of Brion four days ahead of the scheduled date, and brought all the soldiers ashore, besieged the city of Brion, and allowed the soldiers to plunder the nearby villages without discipline.
"Today is the appointed date for the convergence, let alone the sea area of the enemy, the Sixth Fleet has not even appeared a shadow, who said that they would wait for their group of unreliable bastards, and now any of you have anything to say?"
Then looking at the commanders of the various fleets who were speechless, Sorop continued with contempt: "You people, you know the military regulations and tactics all day long, and none of them are useful at the critical moment...... Today seems to be too late. Forget it, now you go and inform the men of Angus first, and attack the city early tomorrow morning...... If I finish the fight early, I'd better go back early, so that I don't have to stay with you idiots for a long time. Infected with idiocy. ”
"Your Highness, if you let the friendly forces attack the city, then according to the agreement with them, Brion will not be owned by Angus......" Haojiang is the exclusive surname of the royal family of the Island Alliance, and the person in front of him is also the most talented of the younger generation of the entire royal family, but he is also the most strange-tempered. Even if he is the commander of a large fleet, the person who speaks only dares to warn, and does not dare to say other things such as "there is no benefit to be gained", because this strange prince is a lord who only cares about his own mood and can not even care about inheritance.
"It's really not wrong to say you're stupid. What is the agreement between us and Angus, have you 'pillars' of the kingdom looked closely, ah? In addition to us, there are people from the empire coming! Brien seems to be an insignificant small city, but this will be a place of chaos between the two countries in the future, and whoever gets it must be prepared to face the threat of both forces, including us, or else, why do you think Angus is willing to draw a legion to help us? Can you eat too much like you to get out of the sport?" "My father is the strongest monarch in the royal family, and several sisters are on fire with the various disciples of the great master of the Finai Xiu Kingdom, although the relationship with the other side of the sea is not easy to say, but in the island alliance, Sorop, who does not care about the throne, is absolutely fearless, not to mention that his own strength has also been in the near future, and the treasures of the royal family have reached a height that is difficult for ordinary people to reach.
All the people present were said to be unable to raise their heads, but aside from the anger in their hearts, everyone also understood that this was open-mouthed, and they didn't want to be the heir. Asking for the title of a prince, His Highness Strange Temper pointed out an indisputable fact, and after another person asked if he wanted to assist the friendly forces in the siege of the city, and received a reply of "support with long-range strikes", this brief pre-war meeting was concluded arbitrarily.
――――
That night, however, the vast combined fleet was decked out with siege long-range weapons overnight. A dark boat rode the faint wind and waves, sneaking close to the periphery of the fleet, which had passed a hundred ships, and then quietly left north.
At the mouth of the Diana River, on a standard large battleship, Humphreys and Valais's former deputy anxiously waited for Mark, who had gone to investigate the situation himself, and then hurriedly let the ship come over when he saw a regular flash of light on the sea not far away.
"How's it going, Mark?" said Cattrick, who was more eager than Humphreys, to pull his hands up to Mark, who had just landed on the side of the ship. After being promoted to fleet commander by his old boss Valais, he didn't even have his first normal voyage, and he encountered such a situation, which made him completely filled with nervousness and worry, but fortunately he was lucky to meet Humphreys and Mark who rushed back last night.
"It's not very good, the other side is twice as many as we combined, all kinds of ships are complete, face to head, we don't have the slightest chance of winning. With a leap of strength, Mark jumped onto the deck, and did not hide or stop to tell the conclusions reached after the reconnaissance.
"Don't say it yet, you can't stay here for too long, if you are present, there will really be no chance at all, go back and wait for news from the ground in Bersco, I believe that the reinforcements of the kingdom are already on the way." Humphreys, who was not good at this kind of large-scale naval battle, could only pat Cattrick on the shoulder and comfort him, but he didn't dare to say that two legions might arrive here in about half a month, because he didn't know what Lu Chen, the little archduke, was planning.
“...... Maybe you're right. Knowing that it would be useless to be in a hurry here, and that his whereabouts might be exposed, Cattrick was a little frustrated and no longer embarrassed by the two only compatriots he could rely on.
It was only when the sun rose into the sky early the next day, and they who hid back in the Diana River waited for the sound of a terrifying horn that resounded through the sky, instead of Berscoe, the deputy commander of the First Fleet, who had been away all night.
Not to mention that Cattrick panicked, even Mark was at a loss, and then, under Humphreys's suggestion, worried that Brion would not be able to defend them, reinforcements arrived, and immediately sent one of the fastest warships to ask for help from Lu Chen, who was left at the end of Diana.
――――
As he became more and more proficient in the operation of his spiritual power, before he knew it, Lu Chen had completed the construction of another layer, but the construction of the fifth layer made him obviously feel the limitation of his own spiritual power, and after recovering his strength from Phoebe and Serra, who had come back again, he hesitated to build a larger sixth layer immediately.
But just when Serra wanted to stay by Lu Chen's side for a while to enjoy his wife's pleasure under the pretext of helping, Lafitta, who was in charge of carrying the wind for them, ran into the makeshift tree house in a hurry, and recounted the situation of Brion that she had just learned about it, ignoring the teasing of Phoebe, and informed the people outside that they were still waiting for a reply.
Taking advantage of the time when he was served by the two goddesses and dressed, Lu Chen thought for a while, and then said to Serra with some apologies that he decided to go and see, because the construction of the next layer will definitely take no less time, and the loss of Brion will be small at that time, in case it will not be fun to ambush the other two legions who are almost there, especially Fei Luna, who is likely to come with them.
And the first angel, who had completely fallen into the arms of his master, did not offer any conditions, and after asking for a long kiss very understandingly, he let Lu Chen feel at ease to deal with the things that should be handled, and added a comforting sentence of "just enough to concentrate on work".
