There was no need for strong eyesight at all. Russell could tell at a glance that the other party must be the frigate of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.︾

There is no other reason. In this vast endless sea, except for the three frigates that the Candela Empire Navy now owns, only the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce owns this sea steel monster.

Seeing the dozen or so frigates approaching across the street, Russell frowned slightly.

The sudden appearance of the frigate here in the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce gave him a bad premonition.

Not long after, the dozen frigates opposite had arrived not far ahead and began to slow down.

"Master Russell, what do these guys want to do?" Thom, the captain of the Third Fleet of the Candela Empire Navy who was responsible for the operation next to Russell, frowned.

"I don't know... I'll stop and take a look first." Russell shook his head.

"Stop?" Thom was stunned. "Sir Russell, we are doing the mission, how can we stop casually? If these guys don't let go, we'll kill them."

Russell glanced at him: "Do you have the confidence to kill them?"

Thom's expression was suffocated and speechless.

If the Kandera Empire Navy was not familiar with the frigates of the New Air Chamber of Commerce before, then in the eyes of the Kandera Empire Navy, who always believed that I was the best in the world, no one in this world could withstand the advancement of the Impera Navy on the broad and endless sea.

However, after a head-on conflict with the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, they realized that there was a fleet in this world that even exceeded their imagination.

More importantly, after the Candela Empire Navy ordered three frigates from the New Air Chamber of Commerce, during the internal exercises of the navy, these three frigates showed their combat effectiveness far exceeding other ships within the navy countless times, so that a consensus was formed within the Imperial Navy.

The frigates made by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are completely different from traditional sea ships. The comparison between the two sides is like a fully armed adult and a child, and it can be said that there is almost no comparison.

In the internal drill, relying solely on these three frigates, you can easily defeat a huge fleet of dozens of traditional sea ships, and you can also win the opponent without any temper.

But now there were more than a dozen frigates in front of them, and the one who was driving them was the New Air Chamber of Commerce's escort. How could Thom be confident of killing the other party?

"Okay, stop first. I don't think they really dare to attack us. Maybe it was just a coincidence."

Although Russell said that, he didn't think so in his heart.

Although the Endless Sea is extremely wide, the Frigate of the New Air Flying Chamber of Commerce suddenly appeared when the Kandra Empire Navy just entered the waters of the Rulson Kingdom. It would be too much to say that it was a coincidence.

A moment later, the fleets of both sides stopped at the same time when they were about two kilometers apart, and then the magic caller used for communication on the frigate where Russell was located rang.

"On the other side is the Candela Empire Navy? I am Leslie, the former commander of the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce. Can you ask if there are people I know on your fleet?"

Russell and Thom looked at each other, Russell coughed lightly and replied, "Hello, Lord Leslie, I'm Russell."

"Oh? Lord Russell is here too? That would be great." Leslie's voice showed a hint of surprise. "Lord Russell, this kind of conversation is not convenient. Can we meet and talk?"

Russell frowned slightly: "We are carrying out a mission, and it may not be convenient to delay the time to meet you."

Leslie chuckled: "Sir Russell, what I want to talk to you is related to your mission this time."

Russell frowned, and Thom snatched the conversation and said, "Sir Leslie, I'm sorry, we are carrying out an emergency mission. Please lead your subordinates to get out of the waterway and don't waste our time."

"What if I don't?"

Thom immediately raised his eyebrows and asked, "Mr. Leslie, what do you mean? Do you know that deliberately blocking us is equivalent to declaring war on us? Are you sure you know the consequences of doing so?"

"I know, that's why I came." Leslie's tone was still relaxed.

Thom was furious and wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Russell.

"Sir Leslie, what do you mean?" Russell asked in a deep voice.

"I just said that, I just won't let you go."

Listening to Leslie's still relaxed tone, Russell was slightly angry, his face became even more gloomy, and he asked again: "Leslie, do you really know what you are doing? If you hinder the actions of our Imperial Navy, I can completely think that you are declaring war on our Imperial Navy and declaring war on the Imperial! I will give you another chance, please get out of the way immediately. For the sake of our friendship, I can pretend that this time has not happened."

Leslie's hearty smile came from the caller, but there was no further response.

"Sir Russell, let's not bother him. Just rush over. I don't believe he dares to attack us." Thom, who was beside him, urged. "If we drag on it, we will delay it for too long, and it may affect the entire plan."

Russell frowned and thought for a while, and nodded slowly.

"Let's go, don't worry about them."

Thom nodded and immediately sent an order.

A moment later, all ships of the Kandra Empire Navy Fleet were activated again.

However, the three frigates in the front had just moved about ten meters when they suddenly saw a little red light on a ship opposite.

Seeing this red light lit up, Russell and Tomzie's hearts tightened.

If they read it correctly, this is clearly the light fired by the ship-based magic cannon specially equipped on the frigate!

"dodge!"

As soon as Thom had time to shout, he saw a red light shooting from the opposite side, breaking through the distance of nearly two kilometers between the two ships in an instant.

However, the red light did not come straight to the frigate under their feet, but instead transformed into an arc with a small arc in the air and directly penetrated into the sea water ahead.

"boom--"

With a loud bang, a huge column of water soared into the sky.

The originally calm sea surface was filled with violent waves, causing several ships of the Kander Empire Navy fleet, which were less than 100 meters away from the explosion site, to shake.

Thom and Russell watched the wave fall from the sky, like a huge rock hitting the sea surface, causing another violent wave.

"He...he's crazy!" Thom couldn't help but curse.

Russell took a deep breath and pressed the call button on the magic caller without hesitation.

As soon as the green light showing the successful call came on, Russell immediately shouted angrily: "Leslie, are you crazy? Do you dare to really attack us? Are you declaring war on our Candela Empire?"

Leslie's slightly lazy voice sounded inside the caller.

"Ah? Declare war? No, no, Lord Russell, you misunderstood. I don't mean to declare war directly. I just have the responsibility. I can't let you go."

"What is the responsibility?" Russell was stunned. "What does this have to do with your responsibility?"

"Of course there is. I signed a coastal defense agreement with the Kingdom of Rursson three months ago. The Kingdom of Rursson entrusted me and my fleet to provide sea defense services to the Kingdom of Rursson to ensure that the waters of the Kingdom of Rursson are not invaded by foreign forces. So... Lord Russell, you wouldn't want to tell me that you led the Candela Empire Navy to come here just for tourism, right?"

"Coast Defense Agreement?" This was another noun that Russell heard for the first time, but it did not prevent him from understanding the meaning of it from Leslie's words. "In other words, you are now equivalent to the navy of the Kingdom of Rursson?"

"No, it doesn't count. We are just an employment relationship. The Kingdom of Rulson has no right to control me." Leslie responded.

"This doesn't matter!" Russell waved his hand angrily and shouted: "I only ask you. Leslie, is it because of President Xu's instructions? Is your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce going to fully support the Kingdom of Rursson this time and to do the opposite of our Candela Empire?"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you. In fact... Lord Russell, I had already left the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce half a year ago. Now I bought more than a dozen frigates from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and belonged to my private property. My subordinates and I have no relationship with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Don't get me wrong."

"ah?"

Russell and Thom were stunned.

Leslie had been the commander of the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce before. When they discussed the purchase of frigate with the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce cruised the southern waters of the Kander Empire, and entered the Kander Empire Naval Marine Port to replenish supplies, the two sides had a lot of contact, so they were so familiar with each other.

But this is the first time they have heard that Leslie has left the New Air Chamber of Commerce!

"By the way, there is another thing to say. I have also established a chamber of commerce, which is specifically responsible for maritime transportation and security, and it is called the Leslie Chamber of Commerce. This time, the Rulson Kingdom was a coastal defense agreement signed directly with our Leslie Chamber of Commerce. Well... the price is not expensive, and you only need to pay 800,000 gold coins to our chamber of commerce a year. Lord Russell, do you think this price is very fair? If your Candela Empire also has this need, you can contact me at any time. For the sake of being so familiar to us, I can give you a 10% discount. In addition, there are other discounts..."

Russell was not interested at all and continued to listen to Leslie muttering about these meaningless things. He looked up at the dozen frigates lined up opposite him, blocking the way, pondered for a moment, and said to Thom: "Retreat first, report the situation here to the military headquarters before making a resolution."
