The advance of the fleet stopped.

All of them had taken great pride in the steel giants they were aboard and were confident that even a ship of their class would be difficult to destroy. But now, the easily penetrated bottoms of the ships, the blood stains splattered on the aisle walls, and the various human fragments soaked in the water are a constant reminder that the battleship they rely on is nothing more than a tin can full of fresh meat to the bloodthirsty creatures who break into it.

True, there was a deep fear in the hearts of everyone in the entire fleet - except for the few in front of them.

"I say, what do you think this thing looks like?" asked Alicia, scratching her head and looking at the people around her, "Insects?"

Dibes covered his forehead with a speechless expression on his face: "Uh, it's not so much an insect......"

Francis continued in a cold sweat: "It's better to say that this is a flea at all." ”

"Well, you're right, flea. Alyssia turned her gaze back to the two black-brown objects that had been brought to the bridge of the Krista by the golden shadow, embarrassed by Shinto, "And it's also parasitic on those who like to destroy the city walls when they have nothing to do, and make the original inhabitants who live in the city jump to the point of chickens and dogs, not to mention the nail households, even the guys who run a little slower will be eaten on the spot, so that all the self-proclaimed Celestial Empire colleagues can only worship the fleas on the super big demolition team members forever, otherwise who can raise these little things so fat?"

"This is no longer the standard of fat, it is the size of a person!" Angel stepped forward and kicked the opponent's hard carapace at random, and then made an amazing metal collision sound, "Wow, it's so hard?" I estimate that the soldier's standard iron sword will roll up or even break if it doesn't take two slashes on it. ”

Hearing this, the mercury lamp replied in the arms of Icarus on the side: "The shell of an ordinary flea is enough to bear a weight ninety times heavier than its own body, and it is obviously not difficult for its large size to block the attacks of ordinary soldiers. There is no record of this 'sea flea' in various historical documents. Even the memoirs of the lucky magician two hundred years ago don't describe it much. That guy must have been so frightened that he was so scared that he didn't even see the other person's appearance clearly. No, I guess this illegitimate son of Lady Luck didn't even figure out what was attacking him, but just made up a memoir written to cheat money. ”

"OK, please stop the poisonous tongue performance. Alicia raised her hand and pressed down to stop the Chair from speaking, "Whatever it is, from the reports of Sister Dark and others, it has a very strong offensive and explosive power, and it looks like it has a very hard skin. The other party is very bloodthirsty, and one survivor has even seen two monsters tearing each other apart for the thigh of some hapless egg. This shows how dangerous they are.

Almost every ship of the fleet sailing on the surface of the sea was attacked, and one or three of these large fleas got in. And just these monsters, whose number is less than the standard five-person team, actually washed the bilges of all the battleships in blood. Even if the sailors are not good at fighting, the destructive power of the opponent is already very amazing. Icarus, are all the invading fleas really gone?"

The Pink Angel nodded and replied flatly, "Yes." Master, the enemy has indeed been wiped out. Other. The sonar I set up at the bottom of the Mangla didn't see anything suspicious in the vicinity. ”

[Is there no follow-up?] So was it the Dark Empire that took control of the big fleas and let them launch a tentative attack, or was it our bad luck and we happened to run into a group of big fleas that came out to feed? Either way, it's certain that this is their range. You'll have to find a way to deal with the monsters' onslaught from underwater. 】

Alysia, who had made up her mind, swept her gaze over everyone in turn, and finally fixed on the body of the golden shadow: "Little Dark Sister, if it is in mermaid form, can you deal with the swarms of big fleas in the water alone?"

"Yes. The indifferent blonde girl nodded without hesitation, and then wondered. "But Friol's not here?"

I'll tell you how old the ghost beast is after meeting those ghost beasts who messed in before, and the system rewarded a few consumption cards that can temporarily transform into adult mermaids? ”

Thinking of the true identity of a prince whose status was very high but too low, the golden shadow resolutely stopped speaking.

Angel, on the other hand, looked a little worried: "Your Majesty. I know she's a level 6 master. But wouldn't it be too reluctant for her to face hordes of monsters in the water alone?, and the bottom of the battleship was unarmed, wouldn't it be ...... if the monsters broke through the defenses of the Golden Shadow Lord and got into the ship like they had just done while fighting the enemy fleet?"

On the other hand, Jikrem, who has always been unlucky lately, suddenly turned white when he heard this.

Alicia took a few steps forward and tapped twice on the flea carapace, "Well, it's hard enough." Sister Angel is right, we have to think about the worst side of things, that is, the people of the Dark Empire have taken control of these big guys, so we will have to face the enemy fleet and the monster hordes at the same time in the battle. With the support of the Krista and Icarus, we could not have lost a normal fleet battle, and the key question was how we dealt with the fleas. ”

The crowd fell silent.

"Well, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. It's a big deal, and when the time comes, I'll go into the water with Sister Xiaoyan. Alicia smiled and comforted, "And the ship will definitely open its shields during the battle, and these fleas won't be able to get into it so easily." ”

Dibes almost couldn't resist proposing to have his troops fight the monsters, but he gritted his teeth and swallowed the words back into his stomach, because he knew very well that his soldiers were no match for monsters.

In fact, Alicia is also considering whether to abandon the mission and retreat at the moment - although she is very reluctant to Asami, she can't risk the destruction of the fleet to fight the unknown enemy. That's not even brute force anymore, it can only be counted as nonsense.

There's no way, there's no one around Little Lori who is really good at underwater combat. Fighting against those inhuman monsters under the water, which is difficult to move, and protecting the soft belly of the fleet while protecting himself and killing the enemy, even the golden shadow, which is good at entering and exiting in the enemy formation, can't help but show a difficult expression on this mission goal.

"Woohoo. These are the legendary man-eating monsters. Because of the awkward coldness in the bridge, Michelle, who mistakenly thought that everyone had finished talking about business, stepped forward and curiously touched the hard shell of the big flea that had been dismembered and sighed, "It looks very vicious, I wonder if feeding them something delicious can make them give up their hostility and be friends with us?"

Angel, who had a headache, looked at the cute natural dull and didn't know whether she should cry or laugh, so she had to explain in embarrassment: "That, Michelle." I promise that no matter how much good food you feed each other, they won't be able to be friends with us. These fierce creatures crave fresh flesh and blood, not snacks that you find delicious. ”

Alicia, who was watching the interaction between the two with a five-thunder expression, suddenly had a flash of inspiration, slapped her palm hard, and said happily: "I have a way!"

————————————————————I'm the dividing line————————————————

The fleet, which had hastily repaired the hole in the bottom of the ship, stood by for a long time, and then waited for the order to move on. Most people are still afraid of those monsters, though. However, out of trust in Alicia, the people suppressed all kinds of anxiety and tried to fulfill their duties.

So what is the key Elysia herself doing at the moment?

In fact, during the time the fleet was on standby, Alythia left the fleet and went to the vicinity with Icarus and the Golden Shadow, not knowing what to do. When they came back, the three of them were soaking wet, and they looked like chickens in soup.

Puzzled by this, Ilya decided to ask everything about her future plans. He also found a suitable place for him to exert his combat power.

Little Lori's room on the Christica is naturally located in the heavily guarded VIP area, but everyone knows the relationship between the two. As a result, a group of royal guards at the entrance of the walkway decisively ignored the black-haired boy's unannounced entry. There was even a brother who grabbed Ilya with a kind face, intending to hand him a few mysterious little blue pills - of course, he was immediately slammed to the floor by the captain who strode over.

After saying goodbye to the group of guards. Ilya quickly came to the door of the room and raised her hand and knocked gently, "Alicia, it's me." Can I come in?"

"Ilya? Well, it's okay for you to come in. The girl's sweet voice came from inside.

The black-haired boy pushed open the door, looked at the situation in front of him and was silent for a few seconds, then turned his face and was about to close the door: "I'm sorry, I'll come back later." ”

Obviously, Elicia, who had just finished taking a shower and exuding crystal moisture, was only wrapped in a pink bath towel and was sitting on the edge of the bed combing her hair, and suddenly pouted and said with an unhappy face: "Wait a minute." What's the matter with your unsalty reaction? And I said you could come in, right?

"I'm sorry. ”

"Don't apologize to me, go and sincerely apologize to all the cute girls in the world who are willing to take the initiative to contribute to the welfare of their favorite boys!"

"......" Ilya, who was slightly embarrassed, blushed slightly and looked at the vase on the side, and sat down at the table tensely, but he didn't know how to speak.

Seeing this, Alicia couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook her head and sighed, "Okay." What the hell are you coming to me for?"

It is the most basic etiquette to look people in the eye when talking to someone, and Ilya just turned her head to do so, but she hurriedly turned her face to the vase, stretched out her index finger and scratched the bridge of her nose and said, "Uh, Elysia, how about you put a coat on the outside?"

"Okay, okay, then you wait for me for a while. Little Lori puffed out her face and grabbed the nightdress on the bed and walked into the next room, and after a while, she appeared in Ilya's sight again in the nightdress, "It's always okay, right?"

Nod.

After sitting down opposite the boy, Alicia picked up the kettle on the table and poured water for the two of them, and said, "What the hell is wrong? I didn't accept such a big benefit just now, and it seems that you didn't come to push me." So is it about the upcoming battle?"

"Yes, I hope you can tell me about the upcoming plan and the relevant precautions, and I can prepare in advance. ”

"Because this is an underwater battle that everyone is familiar with, you are worried about whether my plan will fail. Do you even risk your own risk to turn the tide after a defeat?" Alicia took a sip of water from her teacup, "Ilya, I'm honest, I'm not very sure about that plan myself. But at the moment it is ready to be fired, and if we retreat here, there will be no more peace on our coastline in the future. ”

Ilya nodded in understanding, then smiled and comforted, "It's okay, you will definitely succeed." ”

"Don't say such irresponsible words casually, such as 'you can definitely do it', 'no one else can do it except you', and 'it's your words must be okay' and other lines that anyone can say, and after hearing these lines, it is a royal plot that only the male protagonist in the hot-blooded comic will have;

Ilya, who didn't know where he stepped on what kind of mine, had to laugh again and again.

Fortunately, Xiao Lori quickly changed her mood, gently turned the cup in her hand and bowed her head and said, "Well." But it's hard enough for you. Thank you, Elijah. So I'll give you a brief explanation of what you're going to do in the middle of the battle.

Your mission is simple - before the battle begins, the Krista will force its way through the opposing fleet's defenses to the top of their base, while you will follow Debes' troops down from the ship and directly into the enemy's base. I've received credible information that the base contains artifact-level weapons specially prepared by the other side. You and Dibes must take control of each other before they can activate or divert it.

This is not the makeshift empty base that was built before, but a real military powerhouse. Except for the elite soldiers. There is also a good chance that there will be small biological weapons that have been concocted by the Dark Empire, and even those ferocious large fleas. I'll lend Mercury Lamp, White Ya, and Black Flame to Dibis to boost my strength, but don't count on them all. Promise me that if the situation is unfavorable, you will find a way to retreat, and don't leave yourself inside, okay? Besides, you still have two cute girls waiting to be pushed. Isn't it too much to hang up like this?"

The remnants are not the regret of failing to push my sister to die first, but your seriousness that occasionally lasts less than three minutes, hey!

Ilya reached out and touched the top of Little Lori's head: "Don't worry, I'll be fine with everyone." But you, Elicia, what are you going to do with those monsters that matter most?"

"Well, you can only try your luck with their ferocious habits. Little Lori held Ilya's hand on top of her head, her eyes half-squinted, revealing an expression of animal-like enjoyment. "Miwoo ......"

At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and a panicked Angel immediately broke in: "Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness Icarus has discovered a large enemy fleet outside the intended battle area, and it is heading here...... Well, I didn't see anything, please continue. ”

Everything really complements each other.,Usually it's the temperament and the lower limit thrown to the edge of the sky.,It's a strong, decisive and intelligent queen.,I didn't expect to become a docile kitten in front of Ilya.。 But Her Majesty's current appearance is still better not to say it casually, otherwise our heads will definitely not be saved! An Qi, who was dripping in a cold sweat, rushed out at a faster speed than when she came in, and her face was full of hatred for her father and mother for missing a leg.

"Did I do anything wrong?" asked Ilya, looking down at the girl in front of her, innocently.

"It's nothing, it's just that she's overreacting. Leave her alone, it's not the kind of thing that has to be labeled R18 in bed to discuss the future of life, let's continue. ”

"Go on your sister!" Angel, who was guarding the door, couldn't help but push open the door again and rushed in to catch the frenzy, "At this time, two people blushing at each other and suddenly separating like an electric shock is the royal plot, right?

"Well, of course, it's to blind your kryptonite dog's eyes. Little Lori waved her hand indifferently, and then quickly said, "Senior Sister Anqi, you just said that the enemy has formed a large fleet and is currently heading towards us, right?"

"Yes, Her Majesty. Angel also immediately replied with a serious expression, "And the other party's route is directly facing us, this obviously can't be a coincidence." ”

Alicia nodded, took out a delicate dress from the bracelet, and said as she wore it, "Then it is certain that those monsters that attacked the fleet just now have been controlled by the other party. We encountered a patrol team of monsters, and after killing them all, the enemy also noticed our presence, so it was not surprising that there would be such a big move. ”

"You're right. So what now, ready to fight?"

"Of course!" Alicia raised her hands and stroked her hair at the back of her neck, raising a brilliant golden curtain and said loudly, "There is no reason not to fight when you come to the door!" )
