098: Withdrawn

Pericles snorted coldly, and said with a calm face: "No, I am very bad! Some greedy fellows, who have no regard for the covenant and no integrity, actually fell into the well when our Athens was facing the threat of the enemy, and sent a fleet to the vicinity, trying to take advantage of the fire to loot!"

"Hehehe, Lord Pericles, I think you have misunderstood!" When the deputy regent heard this, he immediately laughed hypocritically: "What you are talking about is probably the Eastern Floating Fleet, right? That's right, our fleet has indeed reached the vicinity of Delos, but the reason is definitely not to take advantage of the fire to rob as you think!"

"Really?" the Athenian general remained expressionless, "Then tell me what the real reason is." ”

"Yes, some time ago I received information that a fleet of Nicaeans had broken through our forward positions in Anatonia, and it seemed that it was going to attack the island of Delos in your state. As an ally of your state, I immediately ordered the Eastern Floating Fleet to track down the enemy, so that I could lend a helping hand as soon as Delos Island was attacked! However, due to the inaccurate information, I did not inform you of the news at the first time, so it caused a misunderstanding in your state, this is my mistake, here I sincerely daoqian to you!"

Melaculus put on the most sincere expression as he spoke, but in the eyes of Pericles it was hypocrisy. This guy really talks better than singing, misunderstand?daoqian?Take me for a fool!

Pericles sneered and continued to ask, "According to you, the reason why your fleet came to the vicinity of Delos was not only not to have any intentions, but to selflessly assist our country?"

Melagros nodded calmly: "That's true, but your state doesn't need too much thanks, after all, as allies, this is what we should do!"

The more the Athenian general heard this, the more annoyed he became, and he couldn't help but shout and ask: "In this case, now that the Nicaean people have been defeated, your fleet should leave immediately, why are you still watching outside Delos Island and refusing to leave?!"

The deputy regent's smile suddenly stiffened a little, on the one hand, this question is really difficult to answer, the reason why the floating fleet has not left for a long time is naturally because the thieves who have touched Delos Island are not dead, but this fact cannot be said openly, after all, it is not yet the time to completely turn the other cheeks with the Athenians. On the other hand, the other party's attitude has always been aggressive, so it is not appropriate to be passive, and you must find a way to fight back!

In a hurry, Melaculus quickly replied: "Sir Pericles, you have misunderstood again! Although the Nicaeans seem to have retreated, who can guarantee that they are not defeated? You can rest assured, as long as it is safe to do so, I guarantee that the Eastern Floating Fleet will retreat immediately!"

This reason was too reluctant, and the Athenian general raised his eyebrows and was about to refute it, but at this time, the deputy regent suddenly straightened his face and asked in a loud voice: "But then again, the observation of our floating fleet shows that in the course of the battle between your army and the Nicaeans, a black dragon and a battleship appeared! As far as I know, this black dragon is named Elrens, and some time ago somehow became a henchman of the Queen Mother Olympias, and this ship is the Imperial air battleship of the Central Floating Fleet!" May I ask Your Excellency, why did the royal family join forces with your army to deal with the Nicaean fleet? Could it be that your kingdom is secretly in contact with the Queen Mother behind our back?!"

In the face of Melagros's counterattack, Pericles was speechless for a while.

In fact, Athens not only had contact with the Queen Mother, but had even abandoned the vice-regent and turned to an alliance with the royal family! Of course, this matter cannot be admitted at present, after all, the royal family is weak, and Athens is not ready to turn against Melaglos. Pericles had planned to keep the matter under wrap as long as possible, but he didn't expect it to come to light so quickly.

He had no choice but to explain half-truthfully: "This is a long story. Didn't you receive information some time ago that the Empress Dowager had sent the Empire to Delos to loot the treasury? In fact, the Empire's actions were nothing more than blindfolding, and they also sent a team led by Black Dragon and Princess Cleo to attack the Floating Island from the sea. We were caught off guard, and as a result, my daughter, the governor of Delos, Hormi Oni, was kidnapped by the black dragon Elrens!"

"What!Princess Oni?" Mollegros was taken aback when he heard this, and then hurriedly asked: "Wasn't there a rumor not long ago that the black dragon Ellens kidnapped Corinth's Doshi Starry Night Princess, why is it that it has only been a few months and it has actually kidnapped the precious daughter again?"

"This is no coincidence!"

Pericles shook his head and said: "It is estimated that it is precisely because he is notorious and very experienced in kidnapping princesses that the Queen Mother will ask him to take action! Alas, it is only because after listening to your information, we only cared about preventing the Empire from appearing in the sky, but did not expect the other party to sneak attack from the sea, which allowed him to succeed." Now that they are holding my daughter hostage, I have to pretend to cooperate with them. Of course, in fact I will not forget the covenant between us, and the weakness of the royal family is not worth Athens' refuge!"

What the Athenian general said was half-true, and the vice-regent was full of doubts, and it was hard to believe. But he really couldn't guess that the other party had any reason to cooperate with the Ajid family, which was weak and could fall at any time. Zuihou thought for a moment, and continued to probe: "In that case, why don't I immediately order the floating fleet to attack, drive the evil dragon away, and recapture Her Royal Highness Princess Oni for your state?"

Pericles was furious in his heart and said coldly: "Don't bother, my daughter's safety is more important than anything else. And the reinforcements I sent will soon arrive on Delos, and even if Zuihou wants to use force, the Athenians can solve the problem on their own!"

Melaculus felt a pang in his heart, Athenian reinforcements were about to arrive? This is not good news! I didn't expect the other side to move so quickly, could it be that they had already prepared, or were they just trying to scare people? Whether this is true or not, it is necessary to order Polybecon to stop his actions immediately and send someone to find out the truth as soon as possible. Otherwise, once the floating fleet is flanked in front and rear in battle, the consequences will be unimaginable!

Thinking of this, the deputy regent smiled reluctantly and said to the Athenian general: "Very good, in that case, I wish your state a smooth rescue of Princess Oni!"

It was quickly confirmed that the Athenian reinforcements had entered the periphery of the floating island at this time, and Melaculus was shocked into a cold sweat when he learned this information, the Eastern Floating Fleet was the only air battle he had at hand, and he could not take risks! So under the double pressure of internal and external pressure, he had to order Polybecon to withdraw his troops immediately.

When the news of the departure of the Eastern Floating Fleet reached Delos, the crowd, who had already made up their minds to die, could not help but cheer, and the tense atmosphere was swept away.

"Great! Delos Island has finally been saved, Xiexie, your sister Cleo!" Oni laughed and threw herself into Celestia's arms.

Ellens looked at the two flower-like girls, shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "What is there to be happy about? Even if the Eastern Floating Fleet does not retreat, I am not afraid of them! As long as I wait until dawn tomorrow, I will kill as many as I want!"

"You just don't know how to be modest!" Cleo looked at the dragon with big eyes with affection for a while, and the more she looked at it, the more happy she became.

The course of this operation was tortuous and changeable, and the battle situation was very complicated. Several times she thought she was going to fail, but half of it was out of luck, and half of it was because of the powerful Liliang of the evil dragon and the unexpected strategy at the critical moment that she was able to turn defeat into victory in the disadvantage, and Zuihou completely defeated the enemy!

Although he and Ellens have only known each other for a short time, he has taken many risks to save himself, and the two have always supported each other in difficult situations, feeling like relatives who have been together for many years. He is full of confidence at all times, and although this personality sometimes seems uncomposed, it can make people feel a kind of dependence in times of crisis and despair. With him, my heart is always so steady, as if the sky is falling and someone is holding it up!

"Hey, why are you looking at me like that? can't it be because I've done so much that you're going to fall in love with me, and you're going to make a promise?" the dragon asked with a grin.

The eldest princess's cheeks were slightly red, and she scolded coquettishly: "Who would fall in love with you, a big villain, who is amorous!"

Ellens hahadaxiao, so angry that Cleo stomped her foot and turned her back to ignore him. Then the dragon turned to look at Oni again, at this time the little Lori alchemist was still wearing Cleo's black tight jacket, because the eldest princess was taller and plump, while Oni was petite and delicate, so her body was a few sizes smaller than the clothes, which looked cute and a little funny.

"Hey, little girl!" Elrence demanded as a matter of course, "since the enemy has all retreated, you can arrange for us to have a meal first, and then show me around the various places on Delos." ”

"You're visiting Delos?"

Oni blinked her eyes wide, hesitated for a moment and then refused: "Elrens, although I am grateful to you for risking your life to help us so much, Delos Island is related to our core interests in Athens, and many secrets must not be known to outsiders, so I'm sorry, I can't show you around." ”
