"Wait a minute, Yue Chen's fleet has also stopped, Brother Ai, Ed!"
There was a hint of extreme surprise in Jita's words. Watermark advertising test Watermark advertising test
In the captain's room, Fang Yu immediately left his desk, crossed the room, opened the door and walked out. As soon as he opened the door, he heard Tianlan shouting from the direction of the deck. She and the Papalar were lying on the side of the poop, stretching their necks to look in that direction.
Fang Plover also looked over there, just in time to see Yue Chen's two remaining sailboats deflecting across the sails, turning slowly, and turning away from the Seven Seas Traveler. At this moment, the sky has just dawned. Under the hazy morning light, a silver-covered world is gradually recovering. Two sailboats seem to be parked far away on the skyline. You can't see clearly what's going on over there, but you can see them crossing. Come over the hull.
"Look," Tianlan shouted, "Yuechen's ship has escaped!"
Baggins saw them walking out of the captain's cabin, grabbed the cable, slid down the mast, and landed next to his eldest daughter.
"What's going on?" Hong Ye couldn't help but ask: "Does it mean that Yue Chen's people also discovered the fleet in front? But aren't they in the same group?"
"There is such a possibility." Fang Yu suddenly reacted. "But if it's not the fleet of the descendants of Flor, which side will it be?" He pondered for a moment, then suddenly turned around and picked up the microphone hanging on the wall, and said: "Jita, please contact the other party. have a look."
Jita's weak voice immediately responded: "Brother Ed, I tried, but the other party didn't respond."
Fang Yu asked: "Don't you answer?"
Jita said 'hmm'.
Fang Yu frowned. It didn't look like he was from the military, but he really couldn't think of anyone other than the military who would appear here at this point in time and confront the descendants of Flor. Of course it was a confrontation - otherwise Yue Chen's fleet would never behave like this.
"What should we do now, rush over? Or stop here and wait and see what happens?" Luo Hao's way of looking at the problem is much simpler. No matter which side the fleet in front of them belongs to, their dilemma is always how to get out of here.
Fang Yu pursed his lips. They were now between the two confronting fleets, like little beasts seeking to protect themselves under the noses of the two behemoths. But whether the little beast can leave does not depend on the wishes of the 'monster' behind him, but on the attitude of the giant beast in front.
Thinking of this, his eyes regained clarity and he looked at the others: "Rush over."
"Rush over?"
Fang Plover nodded.
Because no matter what, they always need to confirm each other's attitude. It is better to be a moment earlier than a moment later.
…
"Yuechen's fleet has stopped. What happened?"
"It seems that a fleet has appeared, and the other party is not affiliated with the descendants of Flor."
"Is he from the Rainbow Alliance?"
Wandering Ma'er looked at the barrages that were being discussed in his live broadcast room.
As a professional anchor, he actually realized Yue Chen's abnormality earlier than others. However, since the live broadcast was Yue Chen's main perspective, and the camera crew concealed a lot of key information, from the carefully chosen angle, he could not see the main crystal of the wind element detector in the direction of the command bridge - so he was the same as everyone else It's also impossible to determine what happened.
But he didn't think it would be someone from the Rainbow Alliance. On the surface, the Rainbow Alliance and the Descendants of Flor are old enemies, but in fact there is no difference between the two. Both parties are under the jurisdiction of the Alliance. They usually divide their spheres of influence and do not interfere with each other.
There may be some conflicts of interest, but they are within the framework and there will be no fundamental opposition.
When facing a common enemy, the two have many things in common, and sometimes they even work together. Even if they do not reach an agreement, the other party will at least maintain a superficial 'neutrality' at such times. . If not, the Covenant Mountain Incident, which was so huge back then, would not have ended in failure.
Wandering Ma'er knew in his heart that even the Rainbow Alliance also coveted the secrets of the Seven Seas Brigade and wanted to get the Hailin Crown or the whereabouts of the obelisk map, but they would never do it openly. They may secretly win over Fang Plover and his party, but they will not publicly set up a battle array to confront the descendants of Flor here.
However, he had to admit that apart from the people from the Rainbow Alliance, he really couldn't think of any third party forces existing in the north.
Perhaps the Crow's Claw Temple is one, but the Crow's Claw Temple does not have its own floating fleet - after all, if the Temple has a fleet, then it may be the turn of the Corin-Ithurian Kingdom to worry about it.
In addition, there are Kingdom Alliance fleets stationed in Gula Port and Elpaxin, but the governors of Elpaxin and Gula both acquiesce in the existence of the temple and even support it behind the scenes. Wandering Ma'er is well-informed and naturally knows something about the transaction between the Super Competitive Alliance and the two Archons, so this possibility can be ruled out.
The other is the military fleet patrolling the Rainbow Sky Gorge area, but Wandering Ma didn't even consider this possibility. What kind of concept is this when the military fleet confronts its own guild alliance?
While he was confused, he suddenly saw several barrages flashing in the live broadcast room.
These barrage seemed to be asking about community control outside. Some people mentioned that some posts were folded and some people had their IDs locked.
Wandering Ma'er couldn't help but be slightly startled when he saw these comments. He had actually seen someone discussing this matter before, but the information flow in the live broadcast room was huge, all kinds of news were mixed, and people were spreading rumors all the time. Or with rhythm, so he didn't pay much attention to it before.
But as more and more people discussed it, Wandering Ma couldn't help but become a little suspicious. He temporarily turned his attention away from the incident in front of him, went out and opened the community and tried it, and found that those people were not lying - private message The mail system was shut down.
The wandering horse was slightly startled. He was much more sensitive than the people discussing in the barrage. He immediately realized that something might have happened, but he didn't know if it was related to the current action of the Descendants of Flor. .
He took out his personal terminal and immediately saw that several friends had sent him messages. However, the content of those messages surprised Wandering Ma'er. Several friends sent messages to remind him to pay attention because several anchors had already been banned by the community.
The wandering horse was stunned, wondering what was going on. He immediately sent a message to inquire carefully and found out that it seemed that the anchors suddenly started to lead the descendants of Flor, and were locked out soon after. Studio.
Of course, as elsewhere, there are of course a variety of different voices in the community. Wandering Horse understands that those who are so-called with the rhythm of the descendants of Flor, some of them may be surrounded by the Rainbow Alliance, but there are also sympathizers from the Covenant Mountain. Generally speaking, major guilds disdain to argue with these 'anti-fans'. Of course, there may be exceptions for those who go too far, but anchors rely on this industry to make a living and have their own sense of proportion, and usually will not ruin their own jobs.
As a former travel and food podcaster, he originally didn't care much about these disputes, but since he started paying attention to the Seven Seas Troupe, he gradually understood the joints involved.
He even got to know a few such anchors, and some of them were even retired free-chosen people. After hearing the news, he immediately cut to the live broadcast rooms of these people and saw the familiar faces that could not be found. Tips for getting to the live broadcast room.
Wandering Ma'er couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Professional anchors are very sensitive. How could they make such a mistake at this time? He tentatively sent a few messages to these people, but they all came to nothing and he received no reply.
He frowned slightly. Community control was actually nothing new. They had done this once almost a year ago, but it was the handiwork of the alliance at that time, but what about now?
As far as he knew, the community had been taken over by the military a few months ago, but would the military take sides in this dispute? To be honest, after understanding the truth behind the Fenris incident, Wandering Ma would rather believe that the military would make a different decision.
Especially the military exercise that took place in Kailan'ao not long ago, there were many people discussing it.
While he was wondering, he suddenly heard the doorbell ringing outside.
The wandering horse couldn't help but be stunned. He was in Stargate Port at the moment, and the work team was still in Aitaria and had not returned. He only knew a few people here who knew him. Who would come to him at this time?
Could it be another person from the Stargate Guard who came to investigate?
He remembered that there had been some minor disturbances in Stargate Port recently. Just over a month ago, the Stargate garrison launched a dragnet-style investigation in Stargate Port every day. At that time, he had to send out several groups of people a day, but after that incident gradually subsided, especially after the completion of the Area C plan, these things have long been a thing of the past.
The wandering horse rubbed his aching eyes. Although he was suspicious, he still got up and walked in that direction. He knew that most of the people who came to see him were the staff of Stargate Port. Although there were unofficial personnel stationed at Stargate Port, they were either selectees, and tourists would not come to this place.
With this thought in mind, he turned on the monitor next to the door and was startled. There were several people standing outside the door, but they were not military personnel from the Stargate Port garrison wearing black trench coats, nor were they Starbridge staff wearing white, green or yellow work uniforms.
But a few people in suits and ties.
The wandering horse looked at the brooch on the other person's tie, and suddenly understood the origin of these people.
When he opened the video communication, the person outside the door obviously saw his appearance clearly. One of the young people immediately said to him:
"Is it Mr. Wandering Horse?"
"We are staff in the embassy area, and we need your help with some things right now."
…
"They're moving, Virus."
Virus nodded.
But the iceberg lady's face showed no expression as always. She only turned around and silently looked at the main crystal on the large wind element detector, and the flickering light spot on it.
The light spot was slowly approaching them. To be precise, it was approaching the bottom of the fleet from below the clouds. The opponent slowed down slightly, but after a moment of pause, he immediately passed from that direction and then disappeared.
Virus knew in his heart that the other party had once again lowered its height and seemed to be quite afraid of the Jade Fire above the clouds. Even with the wind element detector she had improved on the Jade Fire, at this altitude, it was still unable to detect the sailboat flying close to the ground.
She walked aside and stared at the sea of clouds outside the porthole with cold eyes, as if her eyes could penetrate the clouds and gaze at the scene above the forest below.
After a while, she raised her head again and looked forward——
In that direction, a fleet comparable in size to them was hovering quietly.
Yue Chen's fleet has stopped for nearly a quarter of an hour.
In the captain's room, on the command bridge, Hai Lan was watching his deputy quietly and asked:
"Is it her?"
The adjutant hesitated and nodded.
No one in this world wants to be someone else's shadow, let alone a star player like Hai Lan, but people think she is an 'iceberg' of Yue Chen, and that woman also has a similar personality to herself, and is slightly less famous. The price of being inferior is to be under the other party forever.
"Jade Fire?" She asked quietly again.
"It's Jade Fire, Vice President."
"Why are Elites meddling in this trouble?"
Hailan seemed to be asking, but also seemed to be mumbling to himself.
She has always been called the 'Virus' of Moondust, or the 'Little Iceberg Goddess'. When people mention her, they will only think of that woman first, and then turn their attention back to her. Most people don't care that her rise to fame actually came earlier than her opponent.
But she has a firm character and is serious, but not aggressive. When the old president single-handedly promoted her to this position, it was precisely because of this that someone else might have wanted to compete with her, especially this opportunity, in full view of the public. More than appropriate.
But she was as quiet as if it had nothing to do with her, and only pondered for a moment. She is more suspicious of Elite's motives than anything else. Although this guild has been full of mysteries since its birth, no one knows where it came from. They only know about the rapid rise of this guild. And it entered the top ten in one fell swoop, knocking out the Flame Sword Guild, which was famous at the time.
In the following years, it became even more famous in several major leagues, frequently winning first place.
It's just that this guild is better at group combat, and its main fleet with the Jade Fire is no weaker than the 'Blue Ghost'. However, except for Virus, there aren't many real star players within it. Others often think this is because Elite is a newcomer to the top ten and lacks foundation.
However, Heilan knew in his heart that without any knowledge, it would be impossible to compete with Silver Vislan and dominate each other's top ten spots. The fundamental reason is the difference in talent training strategies behind it, and it is precisely because of this difference that many people in the industry have always suspected that this guild of unknown origin is actually the white glove of the military in Aitaria.
Heilan knew that there was a sponsor behind Elite, but it rarely revealed it to the outside world, so the alliance could not control it. This guild, which is somewhat mysterious to those in the industry, is actually very powerful. It is precisely because of this that it can become a third party independent of the Rainbow Alliance and the Descendants of Flor.
But the question is, what is the intention of that woman and the Elite people appearing here at this moment?
"Vice president?"
The adjutant asked tentatively. The target was about to slip away from their eyes, so they had to react.
The Elite people formed a formation in front and made an attacking posture, but the opponent was one of the top ten, and the same was true for them. Even though the rankings were different, no one was necessarily inferior to the other in a real fight.
But Hailan shook his head: "The other side is the Jade Fire, we can't beat them."
She knew it was live, so she kept her voice low.
The Elite in front of them only has three ships, but the reputation of the Jade Fire is well known in Aitaria. Half of the reasons why the Elite's guild fleet can be on an equal footing with their 'Blue Ghost' is because this ship is made of that one. A super battleship built by women.
Some people in the community even jokingly said that the Jade Fire is equal to half of the Elite's main fleet. This is not an exaggeration at all. In fact, the size of the Elite's main fleet is only one-third of theirs at most. With the Jade Fire and the other two battleships in this place, it is equivalent to most of Elite's battleships gathered here.
The 'Blue Ghost' is slightly better than Elite's main fleet, ranking first in the domestic guild fleet list, but after all, what they have here is not all of Yue Chen's main fleet, not even a quarter. This bit of strength, if used in a head-to-head confrontation with the Jade Fire, would obviously play into the opponent's hands.
The people at Elite would definitely be happy to seize this opportunity to weaken their opponents. After all, they are still in direct competition in the rankings.
She looked at the flashing light on the wind element detector and said, "Go and notify the people in Ragnarok and ask them to move closer to us."
…
Luo Hao, Fang Plover, Hong Ye, and others standing behind them were looking at the reaction on the wind element detector with some disbelief.
When they realized that the Seven Seas Traveler had really passed through the shadow above their heads, everyone couldn't help but glance at each other, and they all saw a look of surprise in each other's eyes.
They had anticipated various reactions from the fleet above their heads, whether they were actively attacking them, sending clockwork goblins to investigate, or even contacting them to threaten them into submission.
But it would never be hovering there so quietly, like a ghost fleet, motionless and without any reaction to their 'breakout'.
Except for the noble lady who was still calm, almost everyone in the crowd was sweating at the last moment. Even Luo Hao, who was always calm, couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
He turned back to look at the others and said: "No matter what the other party's purpose was, we finally escaped. Next, should we enter the mining area according to the established plan, and then turn back to Gula? Or something else?"
Fang Yu nodded silently. Although they encountered some troubles, the Seven Seas Traveler could only go to Gula for now. That was their only way to break the situation.
However, he glanced at the flashing light on the wind element detector with some surprise. The fleet above his head did not take action against them, but seemed to have done them a big favor.
But who could it be?
At this moment, his communication crystal suddenly lit up, and a familiar voice came from inside:
"Ed, do you want to join us?"
"Right now, we are the only ones who can help you."
When Fang Yu heard this voice, he couldn't help but his hair stood up. It was like a conditioned reflex that had been bombarded for several months, and he almost threw out the communication crystal in his hand.
"No, is it her?" He was speechless for a while: "Again?"
…
