Five minutes later
Game time PM19:51
Southern border of Misha County, west side of the Jinhui River tributary, warship [Wrath] Deck
The two old men who had quickly contacted Mo Tan were no longer panicking. They stood comfortably on the deck and looked at the crew members running around very calmly. At first glance They looked like two otherworldly experts. If the bald Xuanzheng hadn't awakened the talent of [Sea Sickness] and vomited in the end, others would probably look at them with more respect.
However, the two did not wait too long. Just two minutes after they were picked up on the ship, an orc woman with a height of almost 1.9 meters and wearing a dark blue cloak came out of the cabin. According to other crew members, With a respectful attitude, it is not difficult for the two players to judge that she should be the leader here.
“Nice to meet you.”
The orc woman suspected to be the captain smiled at the two of them, showing a healthy white teeth: “I am ‘Surge’ from the Principality of Skarlan. Paula Olsen, who is under the command of the army, is also the captain of this ship [Wrath]. You two can call me Paula.”
This captain Paula looks about thirty years old and has a picture. She has a pretty face and light brown skin that are rare among orcs. She wears a white robe that looks like a windbreaker under her cloak, which highlights her very hot figure. There is also a huge musket like a hand cannon at her waist, giving people I feel very heroic.
The two players also briefly introduced themselves, and then under Hei Fan's instructions, they went straight to the topic and directly asked each other about their combat power.
"That commander of yours is really a happy and smart guy."
Paula laughed, patted her musket, and grinned: "There are a total of twenty-four engineering projects on the [Wrath] Artillery, six seventh-generation small magic cannons produced by the Steam Consortium, three high-level professional crew members including me, thirty mid-level professional crew members, one hundred low-level professional crew members, and the three ships behind The 'Black Eel' class has thirty-six engineering artillery pieces, six fifth-generation small magic cannons, eighteen mid-level crew members, and three hundred low-level professionals. Do I need to tell you the specific professional configuration?"
Wang Sheng, who does not have the talent of [Sea Sickness], was silent for five seconds, and then shook his head slightly: "No, Ms. Paula, our commander hopes that you will go to the Ebi City Long Bridge at full speed immediately to help Your Highness the Saint."
"Saint Xia Lian of the Dawn Sect, I saw her once from afar in Lanou Port five years ago. She is a beauty."
Captain Paula blew. There was a loud whistle, and then he straightened his arms and pointed the giant musket that had left the holster at some point in the air: "Ah ho! Girls and boys, race with the highest output!"
Boom! ! !
A flame with a diameter of at least twenty centimeters exploded from the muzzle of the gun. The whistling sound of the bullet tearing the air made the eardrums of the two old people hurt. At the same time, the name of this ship was [ Led by the furious warship, the four warships that first entered the Misha territory suddenly Speed, splitting the water like a sharp sword, galloping eastward along the river at a speed no less than that of an ordinary war horse. Although there were only four warships, they carried the mighty momentum of thousands of ships. The enthusiastic Wangsheng was so impressed that Xuanzheng, who was still seasick, fell to the ground.
“The water power of the Principality of Scaran is indeed well-deserved.”
Mo Tan, who had been walking back and forth for the past ten minutes, finally sat back on the chair and let out a long breath: "In this way, we can finally buy a little more time."
Yu Chen tapped his lips with his index finger, and blinked his big eyes that were almost turned out of the mosquito coil by Mo Tan: "Ska The support of Duke Lan?”
Mo Tan had just explained to her what the 'reinforcements on the other side' were, but because the current situation was tense, he didn't mention too many details.
"That's right."
Mo Tan nodded and chuckled: "The water power of the Principality of Skarlan is said to be four warships in the 'Surge' force. Although I don’t know much about them, but they sound pretty strong.”
Yu Chen smiled softly, and then mentioned that he was because Mo Tan looked tight. The doubt that has never been asked: "But why did they suddenly decide to send people to support us? Whether this disaster was when the plague was raging at first, or when mutants appeared later, the Principality of Skarlan, which is adjacent to Misha County, They should all be the first to know, but apart from providing some supplies to the blockade on the west side, they did not provide any more support, well, Although I know there is nothing wrong with doing this."
"Of course it is understandable. If it were other circumstances, it would be fine, but the outbreak here is a plague, and it is a disease that cannot be explained and treated with common sense. A large-scale plague." Mo Tan stretched out, picked up the cold black tea and took a sip: "After all, in addition to simple material support. In addition, the risk of other means of rescue is too great. Think about it, the population density of Misha County is so low, this plague can break out to such a scale. If it spreads to the Principality of Skarlan, which is directly adjacent to here, a If it is not handled properly, hundreds of thousands of people may die, and no ruler with a clear head wants to see this happen.”
Yuchen nodded with great understanding at first, and then asked even more doubtfully: "Then why did they suddenly change their minds?"
She gently but firmly took the cup from Mo Tan's hand and lit the one next to it. A few dry firewood began to boil the second pot of water.
Mo Tan shrugged and smiled: "Do you still remember when the Requiem plan was just finalized? At that time, I asked Xia Lian to write a letter to Archduke Scaran next door, and then approached the Thieves Guild Someone helped send it over."
The girl was stunned and said: "Eh? Only one letter is enough?"
Mo Tan scratched his hair and gently moved his bandaged arm: "I asked Xia Lian to write down the entire process of the Requiem plan in a letter, and asked Luna to write down what we have learned about this project so far. I copied a copy of the research and analysis of plagues and mutants, Let the other party understand our plans and the specific harm of this plague relatively objectively."
Yuchen knew that he had not finished speaking, so he just continued to shake his head slightly and squat on the ground to boil water. His face was a little red against the firelight.
It took a few seconds for Mo Tan to cough lightly and look away from the girl's cheek: "Finally, I asked Xia Lian to express her intention to fight to the end in a subtle way in the letter. I think, Grand Duke Scaran should have known for a long time that our Holy Lady is not in good condition. That's great, but it's definitely hard for him to think that Xia Lian might really be killed by those Zombies here."
Yuchen bit her lower lip gently, her face a little gloomy, she always felt that Xia Lian. The reason why he was counterattacked by divine power was that he attracted the goddess of darkness.
“Don’t think too much, many things are beyond our control.”
Mo Tan shook his head, comforted the girl without leaving a trace, and then continued: "So, Grand Duke Scaran knows these few things. First, we plan to fight to the death with those guys today; second, if we fight Lose, those unsupervised infected civilians It is very likely that it will lose control and take actions such as fleeing to the Principality of Skarlan; third, the lethality of this plague is very high, even greater than they previously expected; fourth, the compassion for others is Although His Highness Xia Lian is in extremely poor condition, she is still willing to fight those monsters to the end. At the last moment, it is very possible to rush into the street; fifthly, although the plague is terrifying, it is not without a solution, and the first choice is naturally the Holy Religion Union."
Yu Chen, who was immersed in guilt, was very cooperative. Mo Tan shifted his attention, clapped his hands and said, "Ah, I seem to understand a little bit. Well, although it is still not smooth."
Mo Tan spread his hands: "To put it simply, regardless of the possibility that we can win, as long as the Requiem Plan fails, then from now on Xia Lian, who had been fighting with the mutants since the first stage, was almost certain to die. At the same time, she lost The controlled people will run around, and it is very likely that they will bring the plague to places such as the Principality of Scaran. If they are not careful, they will be infected on a large scale. In the Northeast Continent, the most suitable person to solve this kind of problem is the United Holy Religion, Dawn Sect or Holy Religion. One of the several pillars of the United Church of God, and the most focused among them She specializes in treatment, purification and other businesses, and Xia Lian is one of the pillars of the Dawn Sect. She is powerful, respected, and widely loved. If the Principality of Scaran did not lend a helping hand when we were in danger, then Xia Lian As long as Lian dies, Scarlan will be responsible. On the other hand, if They have sent troops to help. As long as the help is not too perfunctory, even if we lose the battle, the United Holy Church will try its best to help before the situation gets out of control. Then think about Xia Lian's position in the plan and Scar The navy that Duke Lan is most proud of can only go eastward from the tributary of Jinhui River. , even if their reinforcements cannot reverse the situation of the war, there is a very high possibility of saving Her Royal Highness the Saint, who is dying of exhaustion. In this case, the Dawn Sect owes the Principality of Scaran a favor. "
< br>Yu Chen's eyes widened in shock, his mouth slightly opened, and he stared at Mo Tan blankly.
“Well, that’s probably what happened, so I think the possibility of them sending someone over to help is not small.”
Mo Tan scratched his cheek in embarrassment and said with a smile: "By the way, because I asked Luna to increase the infection rate of ordinary people by 30% in the report, if they are afraid of the support sent, If the plague is introduced into the country, only low-level professional warriors and above can be used. , Well, that's probably what happened."
Yu Chen, who had completely fallen into a sluggish state, only now came back to his senses. After organizing his words for a long time, he muttered: "Mo Tan is so amazing."< br>
Obviously, this girl was so shocked that she was speechless.
"Just do your best on the basis of obeying destiny."
Mo Tan smiled sheepishly, his face turned red: "Actually, it's just an ideal idea. I I didn’t even have any expectations, maybe others didn’t think that much about it at all.”
"No~" Yu Chen shook his head, refilled Mo Tan's cold cup of black tea, stood up and tilted his head with a smile: "Mo Tan is really awesome, how should I put it, after all, he is very handsome! ”
Suddenly, someone felt that the brain cells he had spent most of the night were exhausted.
"Anyway, this way everyone can rest for a little longer."
Mo Tan stiffly took the black tea handed over by Yu Chen, trying hard to block out the wisps of light in front of him. I don't know if it was the tea or the fragrance emanating from the person who made the tea, but I awkwardly diverted the topic about 'Mo Tan is handsome' that I still wanted to continue listening to: "Once again, you must strictly follow my instructions. Do what you say!”
"Yes~"
The girl laughed guiltily, but in someone's eyes, she must be so well-behaved and well-behaved
Game time PM20:13
Misha The southern border of the county, the long bridge in front of Abby City
“I didn’t expect that it would be like this after just two and a half hours”
Xia Lian curled her lips with a wry smile, and swung the long sword borrowed from Aristocratic to slash at the mutant in front of her. The latter was immediately knocked back seven or eight meters. After struggling several times, it finally failed due to the exhaustion of its bones. Shai didn't get up again, and his head was crushed by the crowd of similar people from behind.
As of now, only 149 minutes of the four hours Xia Lian promised to Mo Tan have passed, and she is so weak that she can't even pick up her own cross.
[The last time I was so embarrassed was when I was fighting for fruits with the sheep and apes in the forest. 】
Taking out the last bottle of healing potion from the storage ring with space magic, Xia Lian poured the inferior potion worth ten copper coins into her mouth while recalling her childhood. Then he spat out half of it with a loud sound: "Damn it, will this thing expire too?"
This bottle is hundreds of years old. The previous potion was put in after she had just received the storage ring from her mentor. However, she later discovered that she had no use for it now that she had become a god's favored one. Under the favor of the goddess, Xia Lian only used the most basic holy potion. The healing effect is stronger than that bottle of potion, so that thing has never been taken out since it was put into the storage ring.
If she hadn't been beaten to the point where she was completely helpless and felt exhausted even when she moved her fingers, she would probably never let this bottle of potion see the light of day again in her life. In the end, it was already expired
"Quick-acting lotus perfume is better than this This thing tastes delicious.”
The Elf Saint glanced at the half-bottle of spoiled potion left in her hand, drank it in one gulp, and immediately tightened her neck to prevent herself from vomiting. He came out, slashed down two monsters with his long sword, and then swallowed the sticky expired medicine.
Xia Lian had no choice but to do this. Her physical strength had reached its limit, and even her consciousness began to fade away. The long sword in her hand that she could lift a dozen bundles in one breath became heavier and heavier. It feels even heavier than the astrology stone.
Of course this was an illusion, because she couldn't lift the cross that was really made of astrology stone half an hour ago.
If he didn't drink this spoiled stuff, he might have collapsed by the time he returned to the city to get some medicine
[It's okay, I took the medicine! I can still handle it! 】
“Drink!”
Xia Lian twitched the corner of her mouth, shouted, and slashed the sword towards the neck of another mutant.
Ka.
The sword is stuck
Stuck.
“Oh, it’s finished.”
Xia Lian, who had already been grabbed by the sleeves of the corpse in front of her, rolled her eyes. He turned the long sword and pointed it at his heart, turned around and shouted to the stunned Aristocratic behind him: "Hurry up and tell that boy Hei Fan to bring people over to save the scene. The Holy Spirit Body after my death should still be alive." An hour or so should be enough for them to get on their way."
"Holy shit!"
"What are you doing? The Holy Spirit Body is different from these rotten meats. Don't make up your mind!"
"Holy shit!!"
"That's what we said, right. By the way, let Hei Fan tell Yu Chen not to get hurt for me."
"Run, your highness!"
"Huh?"
Boom boom boom boom! ! !
Then Xia Lian, who didn't react, flew out with more than thirty mutants in a deafening explosion.
A hundred meters away, the Wrath's magical muzzle was emitting wisps of green smoke.
"Report, proofreading and shooting completed!"
"Very good! Prepare the starboard magic cannon, and start a sweeping salvo in three seconds! Support Her Majesty the Saint!"
The gunners responded with a bang, not knowing that Her Majesty the Saint was almost killed by their calibrated fire just now, but they just shouted: "Yes, ma'am!"
"Throw the zip line, and the boatswain prepares for the landing battle! "
"Yes, ma'am!"
"First mate, second mate, come with me!"
"Yes, ma'am!"
Game time PM20:16
The warship [Wrath] of the Principality of Skarlan and three [Water Beasts] arrived at the Long Bridge of Eby City.
Cannon fire roared and the sound of killing shook the sky!
