"Then what should we do now?" The former's expression was a little confused for a moment.
R looked half-smiling but not smiling: "Didn't you originally have a whole plan?"
"That's what I said, but this guy..." He looked troubled: "Isn't this some bastard's trumpet, here to make fun of me?"
"Didn't you say this is the new guy in that hot post?"
The man rolled his eyes speechlessly: "That's just my guess. How could there be such a newcomer?"
R thought for a moment and nodded: "Who do you think this person's style is like?"
The former spread his hands and said: "There are only a few people who have such leisure time. The most likely person is the guy from Morning Star. He is the only one who has such a bad taste."
"So do you think he recognized you?"
"Impossible," he shook his head repeatedly: "Do you think that guy has such a brain?"
R couldn't help but smile and nodded.
He looked at the reply letter on the screen: "Why don't you try the 'differentiation technique' on him."
"Huh?" The man turned around, pushed up his black-framed glasses, and looked at the latter with admiration: "Differentiation skills? This is not a gray area. Not only is it within the guidelines of the alliance, it is also a relatively core one. , this is not like what you would say."
"You don't want to see if this person is one of those people? This is the best way, isn't it?" R replied in a relaxed tone.
The former hesitated for a moment: "But if he is really a newcomer, then wouldn't we have harmed him? Once he is discovered, he will be finished."
"Yichi, do you believe me?" R asked.
"To be honest, I don't really believe it."
R glared at the guy.
"Okay, tell me what you think."
"I have no idea," R shook his head: "Don't worry, we can't harm him. What do you think this person's level will be if he is really a newcomer?"
The man rubbed his unshaven chin and frowned slightly. He didn't want to admit that such a monster existed, but he was vaguely excited.
If the other party was really a newcomer, would it still be worth this score?
Back then, that person was called the number one genius after the Stargate Era, but even the opponent couldn't leave such amazing results on the multi-polar ball.
only……
He suddenly fell silent, staring blankly at the screen with longing in his eyes, pursed his lips, and said nothing for a moment.
Seeing his appearance, R felt relieved, sighed and patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, it's not over yet."
"But……"
"Don't feel confident?"
He took a breath and nodded with rare frankness: "Of course I'm afraid. You and I know very well what this industry is like. I'm afraid that I've missed the best opportunity, and I'm afraid that I've forgotten the things I originally thought about. Luxurious things—"
He punched the glass plate hard: "If it weren't for those bastards, how could it be like this?"
R was also a little silent, and after a while he replied softly: "Have more confidence in yourself."
The man let out a long sigh: "But I'm worried that it's too late." He shook his head: "What happened in the Turbid Realm is just the beginning, not to mention those guys won't do it again behind my back?"
"and--"
"Okay, let's not talk anymore," R replied: "Send the thing to him and let us see who it is."
"But I'm just worried," the former frowned, and he raised his head: "You know, it's the same as that time..."
"Will not."
R's eyes flashed with a heavy light:
"Someone is digging their own grave."
…
Luo Yu raised his head and checked Mr. Huiyan's status until he ticked each column on the clipboard, then hung the notebook on the edge of the animal pen and turned around.
"How is it, Mr. Huiyan, is it okay?" Tian Lan asked with a worried look on his face.
"Don't worry, little girl, your hill-bearing beast is just a little frightened. It will be fine once it gets used to the bumpy environment on the sea," Brianne replied with a smile.
The elf princess looked at Fang Plover and said with a smile: "Rather than this, you might as well pay more attention to your captain. I think his condition is much worse than this cute little fur ball."
Probably only elves with long lifespans can call the negative hill beast a cute little fur ball.
Fang Yu sat aside with a pale face. After hearing her words, he smiled weakly and bitterly. That smile was even uglier than crying. He never dreamed that his dream had just set sail, and the boat of his plan had just picked up an anchor, and it almost capsized.
You may not believe it.
A future great explorer (self-proclaimed), a future captain who promised someone to create the best adventure group in the world, a future captain.
I actually got seasick——
Yes, seasick.
Fang Yu thought that he was fully prepared for this adventure, but he never expected that he would stumble on this most impossible problem.
Moreover, I was extremely dizzy. I almost threw up my stomach on the first day. I was dizzy and nauseated to death. If the elf princess hadn't used a small bottle of magic potion on him, he might have been unconscious by now.
But what puzzled him was that he didn't get seasick on earth.
"But Brother Ed said he was fine." Tian Lan turned around, looked at the weak Fang Plover, and blinked.
Fang Yu couldn't help but blush a little when he heard this.
Sylvester also lowered her head and chuckled.
Red lit his pipe, squinted his eyes and said, "Fuli, male creatures are all about saving face. This is an instinct, and our human boys are no exception."
"But I still don't quite understand?"
The tall lion man leaned on the pillar, holding a pipe in his mouth and replied: "Fuli, you are not that age yet, so of course you don't understand. Where we are, real warriors will not blink even if they are seriously injured. ,Do you know why?"
Tianlan looked at the big cat curiously.
"Because they think it will look brave, males use what they think is 'bravery' to attract the favor of excellent females. Of course, there is a certain reason for this, because those beautiful little lionesses always like to look for those who bring them good things. For men who come to feel safe.”
"Then who is Brother Ed trying to show off to, Sister Sylvide?" Tianlan looked left and right and felt that only this beautiful noble lady was worthy of her captain.
Everyone laughed when they heard this.
The maid turned her head to the side, and Sylvester asked Tianlan with a smile: "Fuli, are you just selling me out like this?"
"Cough cough cough!" Fang Yu couldn't help coughing loudly.
This startled Tian Lan and she quickly asked: "Brother Ed, are you okay?"
"Okay, Fuli," Attila held back her laughter and pulled Tian Lan back: "Ed is just a little drunk on ether. The wind element in Kukai is several times stronger than on the ground, which is a bit too much for those without attributes. But he'll get used to it soon."
After hearing this, Fang Yu couldn't help but rub his forehead, and then he realized that it was so. No wonder he was so seasick. Stowaways really have no human rights.
And Parker was still chattering there: "Weak humans, unlike Papalars, will not get seasick. Ordinarily we should find a more reliable person to be the captain, such as me."
But it was a pity that no one responded to him.
Just as Princess Brianne said, the Gray Mountain Negative Mountain Beast looked a little sluggish, but it was just because it was a little frightened during the transportation to the ship during the day.
This is the direct access deck of the middle level of the Berio, which is on the same level as the gun deck. The wind from the sea of clouds flows in from between the open barn doors, and the wind is filled with a strong smell of livestock hair.
Like other merchant ships, Berio also had livestock sheds on the same level as the direct gun deck.
In Aitalia, people have a long history of raising livestock on airships. In fact, this is not limited to merchant ships, but also on warships.
It was first used to improve meals for officers, so military flying wings mainly raised small livestock and poultry.
However, merchant ships are different. Because they involve transporting various large beasts of burden, merchant ships often have larger livestock sheds. Some ships specially used to transport beasts of burden often even occupy the gun deck.
The reason why the middle cabin is chosen is mainly from the aspect of hygienic environment. The feces of animals and livestock can easily breed bacteria on the ship, so the middle cabin with better ventilation is often the best choice.
The livestock shed of the Berio is not large. It can be seen that it is a typical merchant ship for carrying cargo. Originally, it only housed some medium-sized beasts of burden such as horses and pterosaurs. Mr. Gray Rock's stay can be said to have occupied it. Quite a lot of space.
Apparently the sailors had specially taken care of this place before it got on the ship, and even dismantled many individual animal stalls.
Naturally, all this was not done for their sake, but because of Princess Brianne’s special instructions. Therefore, after Luo Yu checked with Tian Lan, he specially thanked the latter.
Princess Brianne did not have the airs of a legendary hero or the Elf Royal Family at all. She smiled and shook her head: "You have done a big favor to the Elpaxin Artisan Association, and you have also done a favor to me, even without that girl's request. , I owe you a favor too."
She looked at Sylvester: "Besides, you are still friends with this little girl."
Fang Yu glanced at Sylvester curiously, and couldn't help but become more and more curious about the identity of this noble girl.
After Princess Brianne said this, she asked Sylvide: "But since you are going to Grande, you should know what is going on there now, right?"
Hearing this, Sylvide shook her head slightly and smiled without embarrassment: "To be honest, I'm not very sure."
Brianne looked at her seriously.
Sylvide looked at Fang Plover with a smile: "Let me introduce to you, this is my captain. I have an agreement with him. Wherever he goes, I will go."
Tianlan listened to the two playing riddles and couldn't help but curiously asked: "What's going on with Grande, sister princess?"
This call of Princess Sister made Princess Brianne extremely satisfied. Her emerald green eyes narrowed, but her delicate brows still frowned slightly, and she looked at Sylvester and Fang Plover helplessly.
"Grand Port is under martial law, don't you know?"
"What? The Grand Port is under martial law!?" Fang Yu was shocked when he heard this: "When did this happen? Why didn't we know what happened?"
Others also looked a little surprised.
Etila and Rhett also looked at each other. They had been to Grande three months ago. At that time, the royal capital of Corin-Ithurian was still fine, and there were no signs of anything big happening.
And Brianne looked at Sylvester specifically: "The Brave Goddess has returned to the Bay of the Wicked Woman and is expected to arrive at the capital of the kingdom later this month."
"The Brave Goddess?" Tianlan was a little curious: "This name sounds so familiar."
Kita frowned and repeated the name in a low voice.
The noble lady raised her eyebrows slightly, with a rare solemn look on her face.
"That's the flagship of the fourth fleet of the Mawei Fleet," Fang Yu suddenly spoke in a weak voice, "After they disappeared in Storm Bay, they actually appeared again!?"
"Mawei Ship Group?" Tianlan suddenly reacted: "I remembered, is that the same large ship group that was funded by the Kaulin-Ithurian royal family to go to the Second World seven years ago?"
"Yes, Sister Fuli."
Jita then spoke in a low voice: "And in fact, this fleet is funded by the Kaolin royal family and is not just going to the second world. There are rumors that their voyage this time is to find the 'Stairway to the Sea'."
Tianlan was slightly surprised: "Stairway to the sea, wait, is that the one in the legend..."
Fang Plover nodded slightly.
Christian Marwei is the most outstanding explorer of Kaulin-Ithurion, and one of the only two captains of Kaoli in this era to be awarded the title of explorer.
Seven years ago, the other party accepted a secret mission from the Kaolin royal family and left the first world. After that, there was no news for a long time. Before Fang Plover left for Aitaria, there was indeed news in the community that this person and his fleet were We have returned to Storm Bay when the ship group set off.
But after he came to this world, he gradually completed the information and learned that Ma Wei's fleet encountered a black storm when it returned to the first continent through the gate of the world, and its whereabouts are still unknown.
"Yes, it is the legendary Second Continental Bridge. It is said that after it is the door to the Third World. Sir Ma Wei was funded by the royal family in order to find the one described in the legend of Numelin. The 'New World' is said to be the last place where the ancient elves went—"
"But but..." Tianlan widened her eyes and asked, "Didn't you say that was just a rumor? The community said that there are no real and credible records about the Third World. The Seven Staircase Island has never been mentioned by anyone. Found it.”
"There is such a saying," the lion man smacked his lips, took off his pipe and replied: "I have also heard of this legend. It is said that six centuries ago, a fleet of ships accidentally discovered the turret in the turbid realm. There are seven suspended islands arranged in a series of steps, which is why this place is so named.”
"What's even more outrageous is that in the logbook, those islands have similar etheric properties to the island chain at the entrance to the second world in Aitaria. Therefore, the captain of that ship group inferred, That's actually the entrance to a new continental bridge, what you call the 'Second Continental Bridge'."
Fang Plover said: "But after that, the relevant clues disappeared without a trace. Even if people went to that area, they could no longer find those recorded islands. Therefore, some people thought that the voyage log was just Forgery.”
Brianne glanced at the big boy in surprise and replied: "You are right, but the truth is far from the truth. Otherwise, how would the previous king of Kaolin listen to the rumors? In fact, many adventurers discovered that after that After passing those islands, one of them included the famous dwarf alchemist Oakes-Steelbrow. Before this, this was one of the kingdom's biggest secrets. If it weren't for the Black Dragon Rebellion, the kingdom would have started this plan a hundred years ago - —”
Tianlan opened her mouth slightly.
"It means... these legends may be true?"
"It's just a possibility," Fang Yu shook his head: "But now Sir Ma Wei's whereabouts are unknown, and it's hard to say what he found."
When he thought of this incident, he couldn't help but feel very complicated.
Because the time when he went to Aitaria actually happened to be when the Mawei fleet arrived at Storm Port. At that time, he happened to be unaware of everything that happened in the second world at Stargate Port.
It was only when subsequent events almost involved him that he learned the whole story.
There are rumors that Ma Wei's fleet has actually found the location of the Second Continental Bridge and brought back relevant clues, but they did not expect to be attacked at the exit of the Continental Bridge.
And what attacked his fleet was not a black storm, but a pale pirate.
It is said that the Pale Pirates were funded by a mysterious force and ambushed three of the five fleets of the Ma Wei Fleet at the exit of the First Continental Bridge.
The only thing to be thankful for is that the pale pirates did not complete their mission well - to capture Sir Ma Wei's flagship. It is said that Sir Ma Wei's flagship and the scattered fleet escaped into a storm during the fierce battle. From then on Never appeared again.
But not long after that, news about the third world spread wildly in the first world. After that, the worlds of Aitalia and all the other worlds went into war, and they were in chaos for a long time before the Changxia War.
And Fang Plover himself——
It was also because after seeing the Sea Forest Crown in the elven ruins of Egon Forest, and inquiring about the relevant rumors in the past few days since leaving the ruins, that I finally understood why the Rainbow Alliance and the descendants of Flor were there like that. A fight begins in one place.
"You may not know one thing yet," he replied slowly: "The rumor that spread in Kaolin-Ithurian before the Changxia War is related to this matter."
"What rumors?" Luo Yu suddenly asked.
"It is rumored that the two sacred objects of Corin-Ithurion - the Crown of Hailin and the Holy Sword of Dawn, the philosophical hand of the Oshur Empire, and the eternal emblem of Lotao, are all related to the entrance to the third world."
Everyone couldn't help but gasp when they heard this.
Even Rhett raised his eyebrows in surprise. The lion-man shaved the mane on his chin and asked, "Isn't the holy sword lost long ago? And so is the Hailin Crown. Among the four artifacts, only the Philosophical Sword is lost." Is the hand still intact? Is this true?"
"It's almost the same." Fang Yu knew that there might be some rumors in the community, but most of these things would not be groundless: "I just didn't expect that the Brave Goddess would send news at this time. If these news are true, , I'm afraid that Grande will soon become the center of this whirlpool——"
"Fortunately," Tian Lan patted his chest: "Calculating the time, we will arrive a little earlier than it. This matter has nothing to do with us. Maybe we have already left before then, and it will not delay anything. .”
But at this moment, Brianne suddenly lowered her head. She seemed to listen for a while, and then raised her head and said to everyone: "I'm afraid there is bad news here, everyone, storm clouds are forming ahead. We may have to go to Finland." Stop north of Lis Island for a while - assuming the worst, you might just arrive at Grande later this month."
"What!?"
Everyone turned around and looked directly at the sky.
The little French girl with a crow's mouth shrank her neck in fright: "You, what do you think I am doing? I just mentioned it casually."
Princess Brianne snapped her fingers: "One more thing by the way," she looked at Fang Plover and said: "The rumor you just mentioned is missing one. In fact, there are five sacred objects about the gate of the third world, not four pairs."
"There is one more thing," she looked at Etila and replied, "it's the Holy Grail of the Numerin elves."
Miss Elf's expression suddenly changed when she heard this.
Beside her, Sylvester also frowned slightly.
