Chapter 29 Operational Conference(1/2)
Until Fang Yu's body completely recovered and gradually adapted to the blessings of the two goddesses, the last days of the Seven Seas Brigade staying in this free port were not much visible to the naked eye.
In a blink of an eye, Aitalia entered the early November again. Even in the area of Shengxiu'an, the temperature began to drop significantly. The north wind was bitter and the bone-breaking meaning came from the winding fjord glaciers of the ancient tower, and the circulation along the coast began to change.
The time to go to the Giant Tree Hill is gradually ripe.
During this period, the Holy Secret Society has been fulfilling its agreement to transport materials from the Freeport near to transport about two tons of Mithril and half a ton of pure gold to a warehouse occupied by the military. They will then be sent to the Giant Tree Hill, a shipyard on Yinyu Island, and together with the military's supplies, the Seven Seas Traveler at the Giant Tree Hill.
The remaining other materials were transported to the base of the Qihai Traveler. The military dragon knight lady brought them a design. Fang Yu looked at the top pages of the stack of blueprints, revealing an unexpected look, "...Is this the design drawing of the magic gun?"
"The Abyss-03 model of the 'Sirens' is available in two versions: 18-pound and 12-pound meter. The caliber of the 18-pound cannon is about 100 mm and can be used on the main gun deck. The 12-pound cannon can be used as secondary firepower. As for the upper deck of the bridge and the auxiliary cannons at the beginning and end, you have to find a way for yourself."
"Is this the military's...?"
Fang Yu was a little surprised. He was having a headache about the magic cannon. This thing was not that easy to get, especially the magic cannon used in ships, which was almost contraband. It required special procedures or registered guilds to be qualified to purchase.
The association has some old design drawings, but he doesn't like those old antiques a century or two ago.
"What do you think," Shang Wangyou looked at him speechlessly, "How could the headquarters give you this thing? This is... I got it by chance. It is the previous generation product eliminated from Xingmen Port in the second division, but even if it is eliminated, it is military equipment."
This cheap Dragon Knight sister I knew didn't even know, Fang Rong thought, could she get this thing by chance? What's more, even if she got it as a gift, she should hand it over. This thing was probably given to him by the military.
Anyway, it's something from the second division, and it's also a way to play to the military.
Shang Wangyou looked at him and reminded him: "We are leaving, be careful."
Fang Zhu nodded. The military would send the supplies to the Silver Chain Islands first - to meet with them, but Shang Wangyou and their fleet would not stay there. Next they would go to Rotao to perform a mission.
Of course, if the specific matter involves confidentiality, I will not tell him again.
Fang Zhu sent the military people away from Saint Hugh'an, but Xingmen Port still left a third-class battleship and a patrol ship nearby to prevent the pirates from gathering again, and all the people in the Jeffrett team were taken away.
Who told them to stay with the pirates?
But this is not a big deal. It will not cause the Jeffrett Red Team to be injured. At most, some people will be responsible for it. As for the deputy leader of the Blood Alliance, most of the time, they can't stay in the Jeffret Red Team anymore.
After watching the military fleet leave the port, he called Ian, Lark and Calendula and formally sent an invitation to the three of them: "Next we will go to the hill of giant trees, and if you wish, we will send you home."
"But I have another suggestion," Fang Yu crossed his hands and placed them on the table, looking at the three of them, "I want to formally ask you to invite you, and I hope you will join the Seven Seas Brigade. I am very optimistic about you, your performance in the Storm Islands has also won the trust of each of us."
"Wait, Mr. Leader...what did you say?"
When the calendula was halfway through hearing the calendula, the female witch was extremely surprised, and her golden eyes lit up. The lark beside her seemed a little calm, but the small movements that gently smoothed the corners of her clothes still exposed her inner tension.
She has benefited a lot during her stay in the Qihai Brigade. Whether it is Fang Yu or Cui Xisi, they are much more outstanding than the most powerful alchemist she has ever seen. The two have been consciously teaching her something, and those fields are unheard of for her.
Ian, the oldest of the three, was also caught off guard. The experienced soldier didn't know where to put his hand for a while, and just rubbed the edge of his big shield and asked stammeringly: "Mr. Ed... no, Commander... do you let us stay?"
They witnessed the legend of the Seven Seas Brigade with their own eyes, and they inevitably felt yearning. The three of them even discussed it privately - of course, the always calm Lark did not speak much, but Miss Magic had fantasized about such a scene more than once.
But when such a scene really happened, Ian and Miss Magic almost thought it was an illusion.
After all, even Ian felt that such an idea was a bit whimsical, and the gap between them and everyone in the Seven Seas Brigade was there.
"Nothing," Fang Yu admired the frankness of the three of them very much. This was also the reason why he left them. "I am notifying the Second Regiment of the Seven Seas Brigade to come to Saint Hugh'an to meet Ms. Catherine. If you don't mind, you can join the Second Regiment first."
"Second Group?"
Fang Zhu nodded and mentioned Catherine. He remembered that he hadn't seen the female pirate for a while. Since he came out of the temple of the Holy Mysterious Society, the other party seemed to have become a different person and no longer talked to him. She has been staying on her own ship these days to prepare for the next trip to the Silver Chain Islands. The ocean-going voyage requires more manpower, but the pirates in Saint Hugh'an were not reliable at all. Fang Zhu came up with an idea.
Since its establishment, the Second Regiment has been operating independently of the main regiment. May has taken them for a while and appreciated the performance of the Second Regiment. It is time for them to come back and act with the main regiment. Next, they may not return to Kaurin-Ishurien for a long time, and it is meaningless to leave the Second Regiment here. It just so happened that Catherine lacked staff and there was a new boat to allow them to adapt to Kaori's life in advance.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! In his plan, the Second Regiment will also go to the Second World one day in the future, so it is beneficial for them to set foot on the Aquarium one day earlier. On the other hand, these are trustworthy people and much more reliable than ordinary sailors.
Before the communication between the two worlds was interrupted, he received the last message from the Second Regiment, saying that Forest and they should be heading to Elderon. He entrusted military personnel to help him send a message to the Cast Iron Hall area. From the time point of view, the other party should arrive at most a week later.
He looked at Ian, Lark, and Calendula. In fact, the idea of inviting the three of them to the group had already existed, but he had never made up his mind, because joining the second group meant that they would stay in Kaurin-Ishurien.
He still tends to respect the other party's opinions, but now he has the best opportunity.
The captain's room was a little quiet for a moment. The gaze of the marigolds and Ian both fell on the larks. In fact, before this, it was not without the famous guild extending olive branches to the craftsman girl, but she refused one by one for them.
Although the two wanted to stay, they still depend on their companions' opinions. Lark nodded slightly, "We are willing to stay in the second group, and it is more in line with our ideas. After all, with our level, if the leader of the group asked us to stay in the first group, I would refuse."
Fang Yu smiled, breathed a sigh of relief, and extended his hand to the three of them, "Don't care too much, the Second Regiment will also act with the First Regiment next, just a name. In short, welcome to join the Seven Seas Brigade."
In this way, the first group has him and Cui Xisi, plus Luo Yu, who may return to the group soon, and the second group has Pasha and Lark. The craftsman lineup of the Seven Seas Brigade is extremely powerful - two top craftsmen comparable to the first-line guild, a boatman who also serves as a magician, and two newcomers with endless potential - it is even better to say that this lineup is a bit luxurious.
Many top brigades may not have such configurations.
After arranging the affairs of the three, before the final anchor day was selected, Fang Yu gathered the members of the Seven Seas Brigade who stayed in the Freeport to hold a final combat meeting before departure:
"Next, the Seven Seas Brigade will go to the Giant Tree Hill, where Miss Aitela and Mr. Reed will be welcomed back. As the earliest members of this team, the Seven Seas Brigade will never give up any one. But this task will be quite arduous. It may involve a deceased god, a conflict between an Elf King and the Holy White Tree Forest. The major guilds in the second division will participate if nothing unexpected happens. Moreover, because of Miss Miya, they are our opponents."
"In order to complete this task, we must fully anticipate the troubles we will encounter and the price we will pay. I do not force this. I have entrusted Ms. Catherine to notify the second group who came to meet with her. If any of them are willing to withdraw, I will not stop it. As for everyone, I choose to believe you, let's talk about what we will encounter in the hill of giant trees next-"
He looked at the people in the conference room temporarily arranged by the air combat deck - Catherine nodded to him. The female pirate looked indifferent. The life of privateing pirates was originally bloody from the edge of a knife, and she had long been accustomed to life and death.
On the other hand, Ian and Lark, who had just joined the meeting, also participated, but Fang Zhu had already sought their opinions, so the three of them did not look very surprised. As for the others, they were mostly core members of the Seven Seas Brigade. Not to mention a dead god, even the real gods had defeated them.
Among these people, Miss May is full of justice, while Tianlan, Jita, Box, Luo Hao and Paparal have been together for a long time and have deep feelings, so naturally they cannot say no.
Fang Yu looked at Dalier and Cui Xisi on the side. Miss Catman was a straightforward person. Although she was a knife-like mouth, she would not withdraw at this time. "I want to go back to the temple, so let's talk about it later."
She said this, but at that time, could she be completely out of the matter?
As for Cui Xisi, seeing Fang Yu look at her, she gently put the teacup in her hand on the table, "It's nothing, I'm used to it. You have the final say. I'm a member of the group, so naturally I have to obey the order..." She gently held the teacup handle with her fingers, but she couldn't help thinking in her heart.
Will you have such a status in this team one day?
"So what is the plan of the leader?" Miss Nightingale leaned alone in the shadows in the corner of the wall, playing with the dagger in her hand, and asked him.
"I plan to rescue Miss Aitela directly, but before that, I will at least ask her what she thinks," Fang Ling replied. "If she is willing to leave the White Tree Temple, we will take her away directly."
"But what if Miss Atira doesn't want to?" Alisa asked softly, "She is the saint of the White Tree Temple and the unicorn girl who serves Aimeya. She thinks she is responsible for the Saint White Woodland. We all know Miss Atira's character. She cannot not know what she will face when she returns to the giant tree hill, but she still goes back to face her own responsibilities."
"You're right," Fang Yu nodded. He had already considered all this. "That's Miss Aitela's responsibility. If that's the case, we will help her solve this problem. She is responsible for Ms. Aimeya, not for the White Tree Temple. We all know this."
Miss Nightingale raised her head and looked at him unexpectedly.
She thought Fang Yu's plan would be more reckless, but she didn't expect that the other party had already figured out the causes and consequences. She stopped her hand and looked at Cui Xisi on the side. With her understanding of that woman, the other party would definitely raise objections:
"Wait a minute, what should I do?" Cui Xisi was indeed stunned and said, "Is it a death plague, or apoptosis, the reappearance of the Shadow Temple? Or both, but is the problem that simple? The battle for power and profit between the Elf King and the Elders Council is involved. The Elf Court will not give us this opportunity."
"Sir," she said solemnly, "I must also remind you that our identities are shameful in the hill of giant trees, because Miss Miya..."
She looked at Miya - the wolf girl was enjoying the night outside the boat, as if she didn't care about the meeting.
"We are not without a chance," Fang Yu spread his hands, and a silver coin with a glimmer of light lay on his palm. "When in the Storm Islands, Ms. Roman said that a dead god is only related to us, and all this may prove to be in the hill of giant trees."
"She asked us to go to the hill of the giant tree to witness, and she and Ms. Aimeya gave us blessings. Ms. Aimeya is the master of the forest, and the spreading branches are closely related to her. She faced her believers in the temple of the Holy Tree and kept silent, but looked at us..."
"Perhaps in the dark, the two goddesses mean to let us go to the hill of the giant tree to investigate the death of the epidemic; this matter may be closely related to the arrival of the Star of Disaster, and also closely related to Miss Atila. In any case, it is worth our try-"
Alisa fell silent.
Indeed, the three goddesses are closely related to the hill of the giant tree, but Ms. Forest has always maintained an abnormal silence. Has the withered twin goddess had a great impact on her?
But she has been looking for the power to break through the situation outside. Since Istaniya, the goddess has been betting on them with her eyes, and this time the manifestation of the Holy Secret Society seems to have more explanations.
She found that Fang Feng's words were not unreasonable. The Seven Seas Brigade could not give up Aitela and Reed. Then these might be their most important opportunity to save the Elf Miss - the mistress of the forest could not ignore the hills of the giant tree.
Cui Xisi was also a little silenced: "...But, do we take the initiative to participate in the chessboard of the gods?"
"We have not participated," said the Paparal people disdainfully. "From the Descartes descent to Narsuyan, it has been several times. Wealth and honor are sought in danger. Only high risks can bring high returns. Haven't everyone experienced it?"
"Parker, where did you learn these weird words?" Tianlan looked at him with a frown.
Fang Zhu looked at the Paparal and the poet Miss. Like Dalier, the two of them also came from the second division. Returning to the Giant Tree Hill was like returning to the second hometown for them - but their performance was very different.
The Paparals are full of energy, while the sky is blue lacks interest - this is probably related to her brother.
Miss Mayi didn't say anything. Staying in the Seven Seas Brigade was a task assigned to her by the leader of the group, and she also agreed with Fang Rong's many practices. Returning to the Hill of the Giant Tree was just a new experience for her.
Unfortunately, the teacher was not in Kaolin-Ishurien. She was slightly disappointed when she returned to Saint Hurien and did not see Ms. Leya this time.
"The gods are not that scary, and Ms. Roman said that Ms. Aimeya chose us because we were already walking with her," replied Fang Lu. "We want to save Miss Aitela, and she wants to calm the disaster of the giant tree hills, and our purpose is consistent."
When others heard this, they no longer refuted.
It would be better to say that Parker's words did dispel some of their doubts. They have not faced opponents at the level of gods, and this time there is more power behind them.
"Since everyone agrees," Fang Zhu said, "Let's talk about the hill of giant trees."
He looked at Jita, the lady of the naturalist, nodded to him and unfolded the map of the giant tree hill that had been prepared.
Fang Zhu looked at the map and said, "The Hill of Giant Trees is different from any continent we have been to, because it comes from the towering giant tree Terraca. There was not only one such elves in Aitalia, but now the Holy White Giant Tree is the only remaining vein of the Holy Tree-"
"The holy tree grows into a canopy that covers the sky and the sun, and its roots take root in the sea of clouds to form a continent. This is the origin of the name of "The Hill of Giant Trees". This continent is divided into six areas from south to north, from east to west, from lower to upper level."
"First of all, we will arrive first, Linnorel, which is the densest and most economically active area of the Giant Tree Hill. It includes three areas, Sanshak, Floating Cloud Hills and Silver Wind City, and Silver Wind Harbor - it is the economic center of the Giant Tree Hill."
"This is also the area where mortals live the most in the Giant Tree Hill. Elves and mortals live in Linnorir and form an emerging aristocratic class. These upper aristocrats control the operation of Silver Wind Harbor, including both elves, humans, and major guild forces."
At this time, Jita spoke and added:
"The Saint White Clan of the Radiant Court does not like Linnorir's emerging upper elves, but there is not much conflict between the two, but there is only little communication. You can regard Sanshak as an area more influenced by secular forces."
"Leaving Silver Wind Harbor is the traditional hometown of Sangshak, the land ruled by the Lord of the Mountains. From here, we go north to the floating clouds and hills, where dense root branches lead to two areas, one is the Nightingale Forest and the other is Roshar."
"Rochar is the hometown of the goblins, which is the northernmost end of the hill of giant trees, connected to the Silver Light Mountains that penetrate into the sky. The mist covers the valleys here all day long. Except for a few goblins who are curious about humans, most goblins live here."
Fang Yu couldn't help but look at the fairy lady beside him. The fairy lady was gently pouring tea for herself with the silver tea set he made. She noticed the gaze of her knight, and then raised her head and met him.
Her green eyes seemed calm. Rotchel was a strange and familiar noun for her. Although the mountains there carried many memories, those memories had already been blurred.
