Chapter 191 Behemoth
Claudia changed into a maid outfit and followed Purfict, disguising herself as her personal maid.
But even though she is a female assassin, she is still very comfortable working as a maid.
“I once received complete maid training so that I could sneak into some nobles’ mansions to carry out assassinations when necessary.” Claudia was like this in the face of Purficott’s curiosity. answered.
Perfect did not comment on this. Although Befa often followed her as a personal maid in the past, Befa is after all an inanimate self-disciplined doll and a living person. There is still a big difference between them.
Therefore, this made Purficott feel a little uncomfortable, but she only felt a little awkward, and then accepted that she had an extra maid by her side.
After everything was packed, people moved the packed luggage from Brandlis Manor to the airship parked outside.
Although mobilizing an airship requires a lot of effort, Perficott, as the Earl of the North, still has this right.
So for the first time in their lives, the people of the Brandless Territory saw a huge airship as big as a mountain, docked in the sky above the Brandless Manor.
Although for the people of Brandlis Territory, since Mr. Brandlis embarked on the road of becoming an alchemist, what happened to Brandlis Manor has been nothing strange. , but an airship is still too shocking for them.
Looking at these people in the territory, Purficott hesitated and hesitated. She was hesitating whether to take all these people to the north.
After all, they had already been loyal to the Brandley family when their ancestors obtained this fiefdom. Their men once followed her grandfather and ancestors on the battlefield to fight for Brandley. The Si family has made many contributions.
In the past, they served as the maids and servants of Brandless Manor. Today, there are still veterans who went to the battlefield with Grandpa Perfectcott in the territory.
For Purficott, although she fired all her maids and servants when she first crossed over, this did not prevent her from having special feelings for these territorial residents.
After all, they also grew up watching Perficott. After the incident with the Brandliss, although the maids and servants of the manor were fired, they would still care about Brandlis from time to time. The family has the last single seedling, and sends some vegetables to the manor from time to time.
Foster reported all these things to Perficott, but Perficott ignored them at the time.
Thinking of this, Purficott said to Claudia: "Remember this for me. When I return to the north, remember to remind me to ask Butler Foster to come back and collect all the people in the territory. Move to the North.”
Claudia glanced at Purficott strangely, but she didn’t say anything as she had already entered the role of a maid, and just silently noted the matter.
Soon, everything that was to be taken away from the manor was loaded onto the airship, and Purficott also took Claudia aboard this behemoth.
There are currently a total of six airships in Victoya. One small test boat is the prototype originally manufactured by Perficott. It is currently left in the north to serve as a means of transportation. The other five ships were large transport boats manufactured by the Royal Dockyard. It was these five ships that had previously carried out thermobaric bomb drops.
One of the ships is the one that carried Perfecticot and the White Bear Knight back to Langton, and it is also the one that Perfecticot is currently riding on.
It was named the Behemoth, and Perficott's cousin Lieutenant Colonel William was the captain of this airship.
Of course, because of his outstanding performance in the operation to destroy the capital of France, he has been confirmed to be promoted to colonel. However, considering that he was promoted to lieutenant colonel not long ago, his promotion to colonel was Scheduled for the end of the year.
Of course Lieutenant Colonel William had nothing to mind about this. He knew that he was completely influenced by Perfectcott.
Otherwise, as a non-aristocratic naval officer, he would have to be promoted to lieutenant colonel at the age of forty at the earliest, and he might not be able to reach the rank of colonel until he retires.
How is it like now? Last year he was promoted to lieutenant colonel, and this year he will be promoted to colonel. In the future, he will at least be able to retire with the rank of major general.
So after Purfict boarded the ship, he went to the restaurant on the ship with some flattery, and saw Purfict who was sitting by the porthole looking at the scenery below. A somewhat flattering greeting: "Count Brandlis, welcome aboard. On behalf of the entire crew of the Behemoth, I welcome you."
"You don't have to be so polite, Cousin William. "Perfect shook his head, not really liking Lieutenant Colonel William's flattering look.
But she also understands that as her identity changes, everyone treats her differently than before.
Therefore, she did not ask for anything too much. She just looked at the scenery outside the window, invited Lieutenant Colonel William to sit down, and asked him: "Cousin William, how is this ship used? You are carrying out the bombing mission." Did you find any problems during the mission and daily use in Sri Lanka? ”
“This ship is very well designed, and all the crew are very satisfied with her!” Lieutenant Colonel William sincerely praised this airship, and his praise was beyond words: "I have never seen a ship as beautiful, efficient, and fast as her! She is several times faster than the fastest warships in the Royal Navy. times, and the sense of security when sailing in the clouds is not comparable to that of sailing on the sea in the past!
Especially the cabin space, compared to the narrow and low space of a naval ship, the airship is simply spacious! It can dance!
But it still lacks some weapons. When they bombed the capital of France, the French tried to attack the airship
At that time. Due to the lowered height due to the bombing, the French magicians and some powerful knights used throwing weapons and magic to attack the airship, although it did not cause any damage
But if a rapid-fire cannon was installed under the airship, we should have been able to achieve more results and be able to defend ourselves in this situation! "
"Well, I will report this to the Royal Dockyard. Subsequent ship models can consider installing some defensive weapons. "Perfect nodded in agreement. When she designed the airship, she missed the weapons.
After all, in the original world, airships were rarely equipped with weapons, and they were normal. In most cases, airships that fly at altitudes of several thousand meters should not need to consider protection issues until aircraft that can fly at such high altitudes appear.
