Chapter 99: The Peculiarity of Abilities
The Doge's Palace was attacked.
The news is like a land-based flower boat parked in the factory suddenly lying on the day of the celebration, and there is no doubt about its explosiveness.
Although most of the people in the banquet hall were not announced, the extraordinary people of the Garrison Outside the Door and the officials inside and outside the factory could see that something significant had happened, and even some of the members of the Alliance Navy Tour immediately changed from guests to firefighters after being notified.
Dong Qingyue also specially found Lu Jing, who was pretending to look around in the corridor, hoping that he could help.
You must know that although there are quite a few people in the alliance naval sightseeing group, most of them are civilians, to put it bluntly, they are a group of officers who have little combat effectiveness, and the ones who really participate in the battle are actually Dong Qingyue and another captain who is traveling with them, and as for the subordinates they brought, they have to stay and take over the protection of the people here.
After all, no one can be sure that the pirates will make another noise.
In the unlikely event that the people on this side were kidnapped, the price of the ransom would not be lower than the proceeds of looting the Doge's Palace.
At this time, Lu Jing's mind was full of land travel flower boats, how could he participate in this kind of thing, not to mention that he vaguely felt that eighty percent of the macaw pirates were involved in this operation, he didn't want to fight with a group of transcendents at night, or to help himself with some kind of future enemy, so he didn't want to refuse.
When Dong Qingyue left the factory with a group of officers and soldiers, Xu Xi and Fu Ju, who also sensed that something was wrong with the situation, hurriedly ran over.
"It's not a big deal, it's just that the Governor's Mansion of Anling Island was taken by a group of pirates, and they rushed to help...... Did you find anything?"
Briefly explaining the situation, Lu Jing asked instead.
"There were originally a lot of officials around the Lu Xing steamer, but now because of the 'little thing' you said, most of them have now been withdrawn, and they are all rushing to the Governor's Palace, and it is not a problem to get closer, but there may be trouble boarding the ship, I have just observed that the whole ship has two entrances and exits on the left and right sides, and there are special personnel guarding them. ”
After the festival begins, the boat will carry a large number of staff and various props, and if the boarding stairs are set up like a real ship, it will take a lot of time to climb up and down, so as early as the beginning of the design, both sides of the hull have opened up more convenient passages.
"Fu Ju, with your ability, is there a way to open an opening in a relatively hidden place?"
Even if the guard strength in the factory was greatly weakened at this time, Lu Jing did not think about forcibly breaking into the Lu Xinghua ship, and regardless of whether it would be stopped or not, the Holy Blood Sect inside the ship would inevitably hide everything as soon as they noticed the chaos outside, and even if they succeeded in breaking through at that time, it would be meaningless.
"It should be possible...... But make sure there's no one behind you. ”
Fu Ju looked at Lu Xinghuachuan and thought about it, nodded and said.
"Don't worry, at this time, except for the people of the Holy Blood Sect, there should be no one else in the boat, and our luck will not be enough to bump into them casually. ”
Without further ado, the three of them immediately went down the stairs to the first floor, and immediately made an ornamental gesture and began to move around the landing line.
The guards naturally did not expect that the guests who could be invited here would have the idea of sneaking into the land boat to break in, but they stopped paying attention to it after looking at it, and the huge hull of the ship inevitably appeared blind spots in the absence of enough people to take care of it, and the three of them easily found a relatively hidden position at the stern.
Lu Jing and Xu Ju were in charge of looking at the wind, while Fu Ju stepped forward and raised his hand to press it on the metal hull, and a brilliant golden shimmer immediately poured into his palm.
As early as when Fu Ju was on the Tide, she had conducted various tests of her own abilities with the help of Lu Jing and Xu Chu, and now her resurrection ability had only awakened recently, and there were many restrictions.
Not to mention the fact that it can only affect metal objects, there is also a limit to the size of the affected items, and mechanical creations of the size of the iron sand golem are close to the limit of what she can flexibly control.
Note that the flexible control here refers to being able to make it perform a series of actions, but instead it is only a certain modification, and the scale of the object that can be affected is larger.
On the other hand, if the target size is reduced, Fu Ju can make more changes to it, such as the previous Beast Box, which is the size of a Rubik's cube, and can even directly become a "Transformer".
Of course, this complex change in shape can't last long, but just trying to make a hole is not so particular.
After a brief silence, the metal plate affected by Fu Ju's ability immediately folded staggered, and after a while, it spread outward like a flower, and the two "petals" at the bottom were directly transformed into pedals, extending to her calves.
Looking through the opening, there is a room of about 15 square meters, with a set of tables and chairs, and several cabinets, which is supposed to be a lounge for performers.
The land-based boat plays the role of a stage during the parade, and there will be a large number of performers gathered on the boat, and there will be no shortage of rooms like this.
When the three of them successfully infiltrated along the gap, Fu Ju immediately restored the hull to its original state, and the light in the room dimmed for a moment, and turning on the light was undoubtedly exposing himself, and he could only barely distinguish the surrounding situation by the light cast from the round window the size of a basin on one side.
"With the scale of this land travel flower ship, the various rooms and floors on the ship must be very complicated, we don't know the specific location of the Holy Blood Sect, do we have to find it layer by layer?"
Not in a hurry to leave this lounge, Xu Chu listened at the door for a while, and made sure that there were no guards stationed outside to patrol the ship, and then turned around and asked.
"It's not that much trouble, don't forget that this land-based flower boat will be sent to the starting point of the celebration for the final decorations later, and there are various groups that will definitely come in at this time to arrange their own things, which makes the ship very lively for the next period of time...... If the Holy Blood Sect really entered the ship for the prayer ceremony, they could choose any room, but the problem was that they were doing it for some ulterior purpose, which meant that they would definitely set the room where the ritual was performed in a place where it was unlikely that anyone would visit or even inadvertently break in...... What do you think is the most unpopular thing about this ship?"
Holding a conch in his hand, ready to talk to Jin Qidong at any time, Lu Jing asked while looking at the layout in the room.
"In the power room, I just observed when I was upstairs, this land-based flower ship does not have steam exhaust pipes, so it uses a large whale oil drive...... The device has a constant buzzing sound during operation, and no one wants to stay around for a long time!"
"Can you determine the approximate location?"
"The power room is either in the center or near the stern, it shouldn't be far from here, come with me. ”
Although Fu Ju came in for the first time, she was very familiar with the power room, even if she couldn't locate it accurately, she probably had a place in her heart.
It turns out that Fu Ju was right.
Due to the quiet environment in the cabin, any sound would be amplified to a certain extent, and not long after the three of them left, Xu Chu raised his hand to stop the actions of the two people behind him, and then turned around and made a booing motion, and he fell to the ground and walked forward with small steps.
It was difficult to suppress the footsteps of the three of them moving together, so Lu Jing and Fu Ju chose to wait in the rear, and after about three minutes, Xu Ju's figure reappeared.
"There are two people dressed in the costume of the Holy Blood Sect in the corridor that turns left in front...... It's weird. ”
Halfway through his words, Xu Chu seemed to recall something, his face showed a little surprise, and he paused before continuing,
"Unlike what we saw at the banquet before, the eyes of those two people seem to be covered with some kind of utensils, and the robes on their bodies are also a little different from ordinary cultists. ”
"Can you determine which room they're guarding?"
Along the way, Lu Jing also has a general understanding of the interior decoration of the Lu Xinghua boat, unlike the Xiliu with all kinds of organs, except for the infrastructure, the rest of the rooms in this ship are basically idle empty rooms, which are obviously specially prepared for celebrations, and this causes all the rooms to look similar in appearance.
"I can narrow the scope to two rooms, but those two people are guarding in the corridor, it is difficult to get close, and at this time, even if you have your phantom fog as a cover, it is easy to make people suspicious, and it is very likely to startle the snake. ”
"As long as you can determine the approximate range, there are people guarding the door, I don't believe they have people guarding upstairs!"
Relying on Fu Ju's ability, it is not too simple to make two holes in the floor without sound.
Decisively went upstairs, Xu Chu relied on his memory to find the corridor corresponding to the downstairs.
Choose one of the two rooms on the left and right.
Sneaking open the door on one side first, he immediately began to look for metal objects on the floor of the room after entering, and finally found a few rivets in the center of the room to fix the wooden floor, Fu Ju pressed his fingers up without saying a word.
In order to ensure that it would not cause a small landslide, she chose only one of them.
The rivet, which was originally firmly embedded in the wooden board, quickly transformed into a mechanical villain under the influence of Su Sheng, pulled out of the hole, and put on a "please" posture next to it, freeing up a thumb-sized observation opening.
Luckily for them, orange candlelight peeked through the hole, and there was someone down there!
Lu Jing didn't care about whether the floor was dirty or not at this time, and the whole person cautiously lay down, and his right eye was aimed at the hole to spy on the situation below.
Xu Chu and Fu Ju, who were half-squatting on the side and didn't dare to make any movements, saw that Lu Jing's face expression was first surprised, then turned into confusion, and finally turned to an indescribable complex emotion.
Even if he saw it with his own eyes, Lu Jing still couldn't believe the scene unfolding in front of him at this time.
