After determining the plan to cross the ocean, Lucius and the others began to prepare, first of all, to build a steel warship that could ride the wind and waves, as a tool for Lucius and them to cross the ocean.

During the construction period, Lucius continued to patrol all over the Caohai Plain to ensure that after he left, the Caohai Plain would remain peaceful and develop smoothly according to his vision, and there would be no more wars and turmoil.

To this end, Lucius divided the mechanical corps into pieces, and planted a large number of mechanical soldiers who obeyed the orders of Vabelan and the general into the lives of ordinary people in the plains, not to see ordinary people, but to monitor the ambitious leaders and leaders of various tribes.

As for Tai and the other four mechanical leaders, they were arranged by Lucius to be by Hopkin's side, and the four mechanical leaders directly obeyed Hopkin, and the mechanical ocean-going fleet under their command was also given to Hopkin by Lucius as an economic source for the survival and development of the descendants of Hoppkin and the Clover royal family.

Doing so can be regarded as a kind of compensation for Lucius for depriving Clover of the opportunity to rule in the Grass Sea Plain, after all, the opportunity to rule the plain is lost, and no one dares to guarantee that after Lucius leaves, no one will attack the descendants of the Clover royal family.

Let the Clover royal family obtain considerable economic resources, and with the funds, they can better develop themselves, although they do not participate in the governance of the Caohai Plain, but the status of the Clover royal family has become transcendent.

Lecius's arrangement keeps the Clover royal family away from strife, but it has the strength that will not be swallowed up and wiped out, so that the descendants of Shamrock on the Grass Sea Plain can continue the life of Clover ancestors who are buried in machinery and do not care about strife.

When the steel battleship was built and officially inspected at sea to confirm that there were no problems, the day of Lucius's departure finally approached.

One night before leaving, Lucius was alone in the original harbor and saw Morey, who he had not seen for a long time, and the original boy had now become much older and seemed to be more calm.

See Lucius again. Morey couldn't help but feel a little restrained, thinking that his father had prevented him from following Lucius, Morey felt a little guilty about Lecius in his heart, and he was ashamed of Lecius's trust and appreciation for him.

Seeing the guilty look on Morey's face, Lucius said calmly, "After I leave, I hope you can help me take care of Hopkin." ”

"What?" Morey looked at Lucius in surprise, completely unexpected, Lucius would actually believe in himself, and give himself so much trust.

"But, but. Your Highness, I, I ......"

Seeing Morey's hesitant appearance, Lucius smiled and said, "Hehe, don't feel nervous, what you did, they all sued me, if it weren't for you, they might not be so easy to submit to me." ”

"Nope. No, Your Highness, your strength is so strong, as long as they know, they will definitely take the initiative to join you. I, I'm just telling them about your situation. ”

Hearing Morey's modest words, Lucius continued: "Don't be modest, in fact, you are very talented. So I want you to stay with Hopkin, and I will definitely protect her for me. ”

Morey was still a little incredulous: "Yes, but Your Highness." Isn't there still Tai and them around His Royal Highness Hopkin, and there are other people from you, I'm just an outsider, let me protect her, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?"

"Hehehe......" Listening to Morey's pretended old answer, Lucius couldn't help laughing, "You don't always have to call us His Highness, His Highness, it's just an elder brother's request to you, and I hope that you can accompany Hopkin and not make her feel lonely, which other clover people and cyborgs can't do." ”

Standing there and hesitating for a moment, Morey finally nodded and agreed: "Okay, please rest assured, I will definitely protect Hopkin." ”

Lucius nodded with satisfaction, then took out the metal box prepared in advance from the metal box on his waist, handed it to Morey, and said, "This is for you." ”

Staring at the metal box that was close at hand, Morey was thrilled, he knew exactly what was inside, because he had already heard Hopkin tell him that she had been given the same metal box.

Although Lucius had asked him to take care of, protect, and accompany Hopkins before, Morey still didn't dare to imagine that Lucius would give him a mechanical source core.

Seeing that Morey didn't stretch out his hand, Lucius grabbed Morey's somewhat trembling arm, put the metal box on his palm, and said with a smile: "Hehe, I know that you have a good relationship with Hopkin, I hope you can continue to get along well, as for this mechanical source core, I made it specially for you, I believe you will not insult it." ”

Morey looked up at Lucius in a daze, and was speechless for a long time, until the metal box was opened by Lucius and saw a metal pocket watch lying quietly in the box.

Morey looked at Lucius with some confusion and asked, "Why, why a pocket watch?"

"Hahaha......" Hearing Morey's question, Lucius smiled and said, "You don't think that the mechanical source core should be a metal ball, right?"

Lucius's answer suddenly made Morey suddenly understand that he was too rigid about form, but in fact, the important thing about the mechanical source core was not the appearance.

Immediately afterwards, Lucius said: "This mechanical source core only has core components, and you need to research and add the rest by yourself, I hope you can really create your own mechanical source core." ”

Morey pinned his pocket watch to his body and nodded solemnly: "Okay, please rest assured, I will definitely work hard." ”

Finally, Lucius reminded Morey in a low voice: "Be careful of those enemies hiding in the shadows, they may bring you the deadliest attack, so your own strength is the key, and I hope that you and Hopkin can grow up to the best of their ability." ”

After explaining all the instructions to Lucius, and finally giving Morey some ways to use the mechanical source core, as well as some special urging spells, he let Morey leave first.

At night, Lucius stood alone in the harbor, looking at the dark sea in the distance, with infinite anticipation for the upcoming voyage and anxiety about the unknown.

Beludi came to Lucius's side at some point, and also looked at the dark sea in front of her and said, "What? Are you reluctant to leave? In fact, even if we don't go to the east, we can develop our own power by relying on the Misty Forest and the Grass Sea Plain." ”

Turning his head to look at Beludi beside him, Lucius grinned and smiled: "Hehe, you think so too?

Belletti met Lucius's gaze, shook her head and said, "No, I think we should go on adventures more, the East is full of mystery and danger, but the East is also a place you must go. ”

"Why? Why do I have to go to the East?"

"Because that's where the Founders were, because it's a completely different place from the Western Continent, where there's a bigger world, and that's where you have the only chance to defeat the Prism, the Black Spear, and the Heart. ”

Lucius laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "Hahaha, it seems that you still don't think well of me." ”

"You've done a great job, you've achieved more than the original founder's expectations of you, and you've far exceeded the requirements of the Clover King. ”

Beludi did not hesitate to praise Lucius, but then the conversation changed, "However, if you want to war, there is still a big gap between the Diamond, the Black Spear and the Red Heart, you must understand that they all have extremely powerful help in their hands, especially the mysterious King of Red Hearts, who must have entered the Sand Sea at this moment, and is about to get the inheritance of the Sand Sea Civilization under the Sand Sea and being buried for endless years." ”

Hearing this, Lucius smiled disapprovingly and said, "Hehe, but I have the inheritance of the founder, don't I? Speaking of which, I may not be weaker than them." ”

"Yes, you have the legacy of the founder, and the inheritance of the clover, but you are still no match for them, you should know it very well in your heart, otherwise why would you go to all the trouble to come here?"

Lucius had to admit that what Beludi said was the truth, he knew very well in his heart that he was different from the other three descendants of the card royal family, what he got was only the inheritance, but he didn't have the help they had, and it was really difficult to develop.

Therefore, for Lucius, if he wants to develop, he must find a safer place, and he must avoid the frontal pressure of the two sides of the Prism Diamond and the Black Spear, and effectively avoid their current strong period.

And Lucius also knew that the King of Hearts had not shown up, and he must have gone to the Sand Sea to get the inheritance left by the Sand Sea civilization, and the Sand Sea was also close to the east, and the King of Hearts who got the inheritance would definitely not let go of the land in the east.

Lucius's idea was simple, he had to go to the East, and before the King of Hearts completely controlled the East, he would also let himself gain a foothold in the East.

Only by developing his own power can he get more say in the hegemony of the entire plane of Xi Juan in the future, and he will not become a fish on the chopping board.

Looking at the ocean in front of him again, he whispered to himself: "This is my chance, since I can't prevent the war from starting, then I have to make myself stronger and protect more people." ”

Hearing this, Belletti turned her head to look at Lucius, and saw the resolute expression on Lucius's side, just like the founder who established the Sanctuary and protected ordinary beings in the world from war, Belletti was a little fascinated for a while.

After a long time, Beludi came to her senses and said with a smile: "Hehe, I'm glad to see that your will is so strong, I believe that you will be able to achieve your dream." ”

The next day, under the eyes of many people in the Caohai Plain, Lucius and the others boarded the steel warship from the port, and with a long whistle, the steel warship slowly sailed away from the peninsula port in the west of the Caohai Plain under the drive of steam machinery, heading towards the depths of the ocean.

Lecius once again embarks on an unknown journey, one step closer to the mysterious East, where many unknown dangers await him, and that mighty enemy awaits him in the East. (To be continued......)
