Chapter 297 [Federal Library]
In the process of approaching [Liu Li Island].
Xia En was always paying attention to the two federal frigates that suddenly appeared around him.
After all, the time of their appearance was too coincidental - it happened to be not long after the [Black Swan] broke out of the vampire hunt.
Moreover, this sea area is actually still some distance away from [Liu Li Island].
The arrival of these two frigates can hardly be said to be a coincidence.
Xia En felt as if he had come to greet the [Black Swan] deliberately.
Shane originally guessed that Carles might be on the two ships.
But when the three remaining warships of the Blood Tribe disappeared from sight, no one on the escort ship came forward to negotiate with them, as if the two ships were just on routine patrol.
This contradictory situation naturally makes Xia En feel quite strange.
It wasn't until the three ships sailed into the port of [Liu Li Island] that a familiar face finally appeared on the deck.
"Captain Xia En, long time no see."
Hearing this hearty voice, Xia En was surprised and a little surprised.
"Captain Dulan? Why are you at [Liu Li Island]?"
The person who appeared on the frigate was none other than Dulan, the demi-human whom Xia En had met several times!
Duran still looks tall and strong, with brown hair all over his body, and he looks like he has a good handle.
With Xia En's perception, it was naturally easy to detect——
Compared with the last time they met, Dulan's aura has improved greatly, and he has become a Third-level secret path seeker.
In fact, this is the speed at which normal Mystics are promoted.
There are many secret pathers who cannot advance to the first level for several years or decades.
Looking at Xia En in front of him, Dulan was filled with emotion and admiration.
If anyone had told him when they first met that this handsome young captain could become a fifth-level mystic and become famous on the Seven Seas, he would have thought it was a fantasy.
But now, all this has become a fact.
Moreover, just being able to escape from the encirclement of five vampire warships is enough to prove Xia En's strength.
Suppressing the chaotic emotions in his heart, Dulan smiled and said: "I am no longer the captain, just the first mate on the [Iron Eagle]."
Xia En smiled: "Congratulations on that."
Although Duran's position has changed from captain to first mate, the sea area under his jurisdiction has changed from the remoteness of [Duke Island] The land became [Liu Li Island].
It's like going from a small town to a big city.
It seems like a demotion, but in fact it is definitely a promotion.
Dulan continued: "Let me introduce to you, this is my current captain, Alessio."
Xia En looked at Duran's side.
The captain of the [Iron Eagle] is a tall and thin blond young man with a handsome appearance and a somewhat sharp temperament.
The most surprising thing is that he looks about the same age as Shane.
At this age, being able to become the captain of the federal escort ship near [Liu Li Island], coupled with the aura of a fourth-level mystic in him, can be regarded as a young and promising person.
However, Alessio looked at Shane with very complicated eyes.
There is envy, vigilance, surprise...
And a bit of strange hostility?
Xia En was a little confused. Did he offend this young captain in some way?
It was obviously their first time meeting, right?
Oddly enough, Alessio helped him at a critical moment, so Xia En didn't care too much and took the initiative to reach out and said.
"I'm Shane, nice to meet you."
Alessio shook his hand, and then said coldly.
"Xia En, this name... I have heard it many times, but I didn't expect you to really have the guts to come to [Liu Li Island]."
"...Huh?"< br>
Xia En raised his eyebrows and his expression became wary.
Although I don’t know where Alessio’s hostility comes from, he expressed it directly. Of course, Shane can’t pretend that he didn’t hear it.
However, just when Xia En was about to say something.
With a "pop" sound, a white palm hit Alessio directly on the back of the head.
"What are you talking about!"
The owner of the palm turned around and looked at Xia En with a smile: "Don't listen to Xiao Aao's nonsense, our attitude towards you is very friendly. .”
"Otherwise, we wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to dispatch these two escort ships to pick you up..."
When he saw Xia En's face, the owner of the palm paused in his words.
At this time, Xia En was also able to see the face of this woman clearly.
This is a dashing, graceful blonde woman with an extremely hot figure.
The plump breasts that are ready to come out are something that no male can ignore.
Her appearance is 50 or 60% similar to Alessio's, and she obviously has some kind of blood relationship.
"Sister, how many times have I told you not to hit me on the head!"
The cold attitude Alessio had played before was instantly "broken" when he was hit by the blonde woman .
He looked extremely aggrieved, but there was nothing he could do about his sister.
But at this time, the blonde woman's attention has been completely attracted by Xia En.
She stared intently at Xia En's face, which was so exquisite that it could be described as "perfect". Her eyes were so bright that her saliva was almost flowing.
“I heard Carles say before that Shane is very good-looking. Now it seems that she is really a rare beauty.”
“No wonder she has been treating you so much. Never forget it.”
Hearing this, Xia En’s eyes suddenly lit up: “Do you know Carlisle?”
“Where is she now?”
The blonde woman took a step forward, came to Shane, and hugged his shoulders.
The amazing elasticity is transmitted through the thin clothes, and Shane can even use this to outline the rounded arc in his mind.
However, what worried Xia En more was the speed with which she took this step.
Even Xia En can't seem to stop her, which shows the extraordinary strength of this woman.
“Don’t worry~”
The woman's red lips opened slightly and she said softly: "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Daisy. I am Carles's colleague and friend."
"If you want to know where Carles is, why not first Want to chat with me, sister?"
As she spoke, Daisy's fingers slowly traced across Xia En's solid chest, her gesture was very ambiguous.
Xia En frowned.
To be honest, he didn’t particularly like such a frivolous woman, so he said lightly.
"I think we should talk about business, right?"
The flamboyant Daisy curled her lips and said: "You can't joke at all, she is exactly the same as Carles."
But She returned to Alessio's side honestly, but before leaving, she didn't forget to touch Xia En's chest muscles a little more.
Xia En couldn't help but smile.
Is he being fooled?
After suppressing the distracting thoughts in his heart, Xia En glanced at the two escort ships next to him and said seriously. "Thank you both for your help."
He has always had a clear distinction between grudges and grievances, so he naturally knows that the Daisy siblings are friends of Carles, but not his friends.
It is their duty to be willing to help, but it is their duty not to help.
Besides, if the vampires were really determined just now, they might not take action against the federal escort ship.
"Little things, small things."
Dai Si waved her hand generously: "When Carles left [Liu Li Island], he specifically told us that if you come to [Liu Li Island], you must Help you."
"Actually, we can't help much. The main thing is that your [Black Swan] is powerful enough to break out of their encirclement."
"If If you are really caught by the vampires, even if we come forward, it will probably be of no use."
Dai Si said this very frankly.
The combat power of the two escort ships was actually nothing at all. It was only because the Federation of the Seven Seas stood behind them that the vampires turned against them.
But this fear is obviously limited. It can only prevent the vampires from attacking them actively, but it cannot prevent the vampires from spitting out the prey they have eaten.
That’s why Daisy said this.
At this time, Alessio on the side choked in a cold voice: "However, you destroyed the two big ships of the Vampire Clan this time, which completely angered the Vampire Clan."
"After that , as long as you leave [Liu Li Island] again, you may be hunted by a larger scale of blood.”
"At that time, we won't be able to help, and you will have to ask for your own blessings."
His words were clearly concerned, but his tone was somehow very harsh, which made Xia En's expression Something weird.
“Haha, don’t worry!”
Daisi patted Alessio on the shoulder and smiled: “That’s the character of little Alessio. What’s that word called? It seems. Is it...arrogant?"
"But don't blame him, he has a reason for targeting you."
Daisy explained to Xia En: "At the beginning, Xiao Ao'ao was actually the original driver of the [Platinum Knight]."
"Both the physical body and the secret power, they have a very high degree of compatibility. "
"As a result, after Carlisi went on a mission, you robbed her of her first chance to unite. After that, Carlisi did not allow anyone else to enter her body. The driver's The matter will naturally be settled.”
“Even now, Xiao Aao still feels resentful in his heart!”
After hearing this, Xia En immediately understood what Alessio meant. Where does the hostility come from.
Co-author, Alessio is Carles's "childhood sweetheart", and he is the latecomer who stepped in.
Not only did he take away Carles’ first time, but he also made her completely devoted to him...
Hiss... this plot?
There are cows!
After thinking about all this, Shane no longer cared about Alessio's stinging words.
To be fair, anyone who encounters this kind of situation would be resentful!
Don't say it's sarcastic, it's not impossible to challenge directly in person.
As a profiteer, I can only understand a little bit.
Soon, Shane asked Daisy again: "You said... before Carles left?"
"She has left [Liuli Island] now?"< br>
Daisy nodded: "Yes."
"Her father is the captain of the [King], so she is also the first batch of supporters to go to the [Cold Sea]."
"I see."
Although he was a little disappointed that he couldn't see Carles, the situation was like this, and there was nothing Shane could do about it.
The immediate priority is to find a place to stay and let the crew rest for a few days.
In fact, since the [Black Swan] left the [Ice Island], Xia En and others have not seriously rested on any island.
Long-term sea voyages actually place a considerable burden on people’s minds and spirits.
Had it not been for Xia En’s [Rhine Secret Realm] for the crew to rest, and Feiya and Joey’s means of purifying their souls, something might have gone wrong a long time ago.
“Are you looking for a place to stay?”
Dai Si saw what Shane was thinking and said considerately: “Carles has already prepared it for you. Come with me.”
......
......
Under the leadership of Daisy, the group officially set foot on [Liu Li Island].
As soon as he landed on this island, Xia En immediately felt a distinctive feature that was different from other islands - big!
On other islands, due to the limitation of island area.
People always try to compress unnecessary space as much as possible to free up more space for living or other important aspects.
There is nothing wrong with this approach, but it will inevitably make the layout of the entire island look a bit bloated and crowded.
Available at [Liu Li Island].
Whether it is streets, corridors, houses, or churches, they are all extremely spacious.
The streets and buildings on both sides of the roads in the city have obviously been carefully planned and are not "barbaric growth without order."
It just looks pleasing to the eye.
Xia En can still see green plants and flowers even on the road.
Cinemas, dance halls, grand theaters, museums... these buildings that seemed lost in the post-flood era are neatly displayed on [Liu Li Island].
It can be said that the prosperity of [Liu Li Island] is not the kind of "prosperity" that is splendid, dazzling and blinding people with a large number of luxury goods.
It is another kind of calm. , symbolizing the prosperity of civilization and order.
As far as Xia En was concerned, it was obvious that the latter made people feel more comfortable.
But at the same time, Xia En and others also noticed——
The pedestrians on [Liu Li Island] were not dense, and even a little sparse.
As for the shops on both sides of the street, many of their doors were closed. It was unclear whether they were closed or closed.
Some streets look quite deserted.
Daisy explained: "This is not only the impact of the prophecy of the second great flood, but also the previous war between the Hui Sect, the Youshu Sect and the Truth Society."
"In order to avoid the infiltration of the esoteric believers, [Liuli Island] once cut off the entry and exit of merchant ships, and that’s why it became like this.”
At this point, Daisy sighed: “I really don’t know why they started fighting.”
"On the contrary, we suffered an unreasonable disaster."
Xia En: "..."
Not long after, Daisy brought Shane and others to a manor.
"This is Carles's manor, you can live here first."
"If you need anything, you can come to me at any time."
Hearing this, Xia En said directly: "It just so happens that I have a need now."
......
"Do you want to explore the history before the great flood?"
"You also want to find some possibly lost spells?"
After listening to Shane's request, Daisy thought for a moment and gave Answer: "Then there is only one place you want to go——"
