On the deck of the Seven Seas Traveler, after several people listened to Fang Plover's description, Xiaoyao was the first to scream, "What? Transform Xinta'an into a floating continent? The Oshu people made a mistake..."
Fang Yu punched him in the chest, causing the guy to swallow back the second half of his sentence.
Then he looked around angrily - there were people coming and going on the long trestle of Nozpits Airport, and several port staff were even below the Seven Seas Traveler, gesticulating to Baggins on the side of the ship beside the mooring pile. gesturing.
The Seven Seas Traveler is weighing anchor.
The Papalars and the Boxers were crowding there, trying to block their view and cover Luo Hao and the Catman lady from transferring the drawings from the boxes.
The port was so busy that no one even noticed these ordinary boxes.
Fang Lu breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the box being delivered to the deck.
The puppet looked in this direction, Fang Plover nodded to her, and then Miss Catman lifted up an oilcloth to cover the boxes, and then pressed her big sword on it.
It has been almost six or seven hours since we returned to the surface.
During this time, no one had even closed their eyes.
However, everyone was very energetic. After all, the current environment was not suitable for rest. The port was full of imperial soldiers.
After he reunited with the others, he returned directly to Nozpitz without stopping underground.
When passing through the underground lake, the Imperials suffered a big loss at the hands of the earth element. The battlefield was in a mess, so no one noticed them.
But back at the mining area, the alert atmosphere on the surface was much stronger than before.
The news they heard was that an underground incident triggered martial law above ground, but few people could tell clearly what the incident was. They only said it was related to an accident in the mining area.
But it's conceivable.
The appearance of the elemental tyrant was far beyond the Oshu people's expectations, not to mention some unexpected events occurred on the battlefield - such as the one where Dragon Queen Alessa made a fuss.
It is impossible for the Oshurs not to be nervous.
Fortunately, Tracy and the young man named Luther seemed to have kept their promise and did not reveal their existence to the Sacrament Guild.
At that time, they were the only two people who had actually seen the Seven Seas Brigade and the others on the battlefield. Without clues, the Imperial people were naturally unable to suspect them for the time being.
However, they did not dare to stay here for a long time. After all, there were prophets in this world, and God knew when the Empire would find them.
The good news is that although the port is under martial law, it has not yet been blocked.
The Oshu people don't seem to want to make everything that happens underground known to everyone.
The Seven Seas Traveler obviously received special care, and several groups of people came to search it. Although they didn't reveal much, Fang Yu could also detect that someone was saying hello behind his back.
Most of them were the forces that had been watching them from the dark since the Seven Seas Traveler entered the port.
But the Seven Seas Traveler was not a merchant ship, and Fang Plover did not allow these people to enter the lower deck. Even if the Oshu people had any ideas, they could not do anything to them as members of the Corin-Ithurian team.
What's more, Fang Yu finally asked Luo Hao and Liu Liyue to bring those boxes into the port.
By now the things were on board and it was time for them to leave.
It just so happened that Miss Nightingale also brought back new news—it came from the city—that the Empire was searching for a naturalist. She was a young girl who might have worn glasses.
This news scared Fang Plover into a cold sweat.
He quickly asked Jita to hide, and then obtained permission to leave the port, preparing to let the Seven Seas Traveler leave this place overnight.
Although this may seem a bit suspicious, as long as they leave Nozpiz, the Imperials can't do anything to them.
As long as he is not detained on the spot, the prophet's words cannot be verified.
The Seven Seas Traveler turned the winch amidst the clanging sound and pulled up the chain holding the anchor from under the clouds. The sails were drooped and Miss Tata gave the command to set sail in the control room.
Only then did Fang Plover look away - due to the sudden search, the trestle was full of people - businessmen rushing back from elsewhere, goods and workers eager to board the ship, and livestock.
Various sounds gathered together and drowned out Xiaoyao's words just now.
He turned around and saw Shui Wuming poking Xiaoyao angrily with his finger and giving the guy a fierce look, telling him to be careful.
Especially at this critical moment, something might go wrong.
Then the girl turned around and asked Fang Plover, "Why do the Oshu people do this?"
"I'm afraid it has something to do with the disaster star," Luo Wei frowned slightly, "Fenris sent a geological exploration team deep into the ground not long ago. The Guy crystal in the fault zone that experienced the earthquake was very obvious withered. The Fenris people were there I tried to find ways to save my home, but this is not the only place where there are obvious signs, there are different situations in places like Osteen and the Treasure Staff Coast."
"This is very similar to the sign before the last disaster. Now, the Star and Moon Towers all over the country have deployed manpower, and Sir Roban is in charge of investigating the matter. But the Kaolin royal family..." She sighed, "It stands to reason that the royal family should be the one to organize this matter, but the royal family has too much time to take care of itself, and the Craftsmen Association couldn't get rid of it after the last Northern War."
She used a euphemistic way of saying it, but in fact everyone knew that the Cowling-royal family was so quarreling with the prince's faction that they had no interest in other matters. Now the new king is trying to win over the Phoenix City in the south, and Duke Mordekaiser has also expressed his willingness to surrender.
At this moment, how could the young king have the heart to think about things that might be a hundred years from now? At that time, whether he was still there or not, and whether his son was still in office or not was still a question.
"Speaking of which, you may not know," Xiaoyao suddenly interjected, "the new king has decided on the candidate for the queen, and the engagement ceremony will be completed soon. The royal family is also busy with this matter recently."
"What?"
Although the topic was a bit off-topic, everyone started gossiping, and even Fang Plover couldn't help but asked a question out of curiosity.
Shui Wuming even asked directly: "Which family does the queen come from? Is it one of the three major families in the south? Is it the Mordekaiser family? Or is she from the north?" She said to herself, "This is not wrong. Possibly, after all, the turmoil in the north has not subsided, and the Corin-Ithulian expeditionary force is still on the coast of Baozhang, so it is possible that His Majesty the King can appease the nobles in the north."
"None of them," Xiaoyao said mysteriously. "Don't tell anyone about this. When I first heard about it, I was so shocked that my jaw dropped. I heard someone said that the female candidate is a selector."
"What!?" Everyone was shocked.
Although Xiaoyao usually behaves in a quiet and non-stop manner, he has never been this outrageous. There are some precedents for marriages between chosen people and aboriginal people. Fang Pliong's own girlfriend is the daughter of Sir Ma Wei.
But that is the future queen of Kaolin-Ithurion. Is the entire Kaolin royal family crazy? This is not even something that the new King can decide alone. Needless to say, the Prime Minister must be involved.
More importantly, His Majesty the King's elders, many of the distant cousins and cousins of the previous generation of kings are still alive. Although they have no real power in the royal family, they still have a say in the king's marriage.
Would those old fogies agree to such an unprecedented marriage?
"The origin of the woman is not simple," Xiaoyao replied, "I can't say too much about the specifics, but the identity of the woman does not seem to be a simple selector, and is related to some ancient families in the kingdom."
"Nonsense," Shui Wuming couldn't help but roll his eyes, "I know on my knees that the woman won't be simple. Can this be simple? This is simply an earth-shattering event. Why didn't our guild receive any news?"
"It's a secret," Xiaoyao said, "but you should know that Silver Vislan has a close relationship with the Southern Alliance. The news came from there, and it is exclusive news."
"Then you still say it?"
"Hehe, what I said is not the important part. But you'd better not spread it. I don't want to get hung up on it," Xiaoyao said with a smile, "We are in the same group, so it doesn't matter if we talk about it."
Several people looked at each other silently.
After experiencing the underground adventure, the relationship between everyone has obviously become much closer. After all, they have not experienced many adventures like Fang Plover, so it is easy to close the distance between each other through such thrilling experiences.
Moreover, they also revealed a secret together. The empire was carrying out an earth-shattering plan. The process of revealing this secret gave them a subtle feeling of alliance and mutual protection.
Shui Wuming also realized that he was off topic at this time, and brought the topic back in a low voice: "Let's go back to the empire. The situation in the second world is also changing rapidly. Since two years ago, many guilds have been returning to Aitalia. It gives me a feeling that a storm is about to come. Now the Imperial people are already vigorously promoting their plan, what about us?"
She couldn't help but say the second half of the sentence: "There is no movement at all in the third division. I don't think the Kaolin-Ithulian Alliance can be counted on at all."
"So what if we can't count on it? I think this matter has come to an end for us. The adventure is over, everyone." Xiaoyao raised his hands and put his head behind his head, the old god was there, "God Alix will definitely inform everyone. It’s the big guild, and then it’s up to the people above.”
"I don't think so," Shui Wuming looked at the others and whispered: "Everyone, don't forget that we are the discoverers of this secret. We have first-hand information..."
She glanced at Fang Yu, "...Okay, I admit that Ed has first-hand information, but Ed is on the same side as us. They should not act without us, or we should act on our own. Such a major change , there might be a world mission-level event behind it, and we should have priority to participate."
Fang Yu was startled for a moment and looked at Shui Wuming, not expecting that she would think of this. But he is not a member of the big guild, so he has little interest in it, and he has too many things on his hands.
It’s not like he hasn’t seen world events before.
Fenris Island, Dragon Witch, which one is not?
Luo Wei kept observing Fang Plover from the side. Seeing his expression, she knew that he was not interested in this matter. She pondered for a moment, then suddenly said: "I have an idea."
Luo Wei rarely expresses her thoughts in the team. However, she always had something to say, and when she spoke like this, even Fang Plover was attracted to look at this cheap senior.
"What Wuming said makes sense. We are involved in this matter. If there is a conflict with the empire in the end, we will inevitably be involved. For example, when other countries attack the Oshu people, will they ask us to face them? Show evidence?”
"...So since we cannot avoid being involved in it, why not consider how to respond first. We have shouldered the responsibility, and we should enjoy more rights for this."
She looked at the others, "I have an idea. We all come from different guilds and groups. Xiaoyao, Wuming, and I all have good information channels, while Ed and Liuliyue are relatively free and flexible. Why don't we integrate our respective resources, exchange what we have, and give full play to our strengths. If there are any changes in the future, we can deal with them in advance..."
It has to be said that Fang Plover must become his cheap senior who is very good at impressing people. He was not interested in Shui Wuming's proposal, but he was very interested in the possibility of exchange. Not to mention the distance, it would be great if there was another opportunity for such an adventure in the future.
That's five million Risels.
And further away, the news from the Grand Guild is indeed exciting. Just like the 'exclusive news' Xiaoyao said just now, it is impossible for him to find out even if he has a close relationship with the Southern Alliance.
Each major guild has its own exclusive news channel, and some of them are very high-level and have been managed for many years. Not to mention free teams like the Seven Seas Brigade, even Loofah's Final Brigade is very lacking in this aspect. .
As for the news about Silver Vislan, Elite and God Killer may not necessarily know it, and vice versa. If they can exchange information with the next generation of top players from these three guilds at the same time, it will definitely be a worthwhile thing.
Although of course there won't be any core secrets, just new peripheral information such as before is often very valuable.
However, although Fang Piao was moved, he was not happy if it was too troublesome to deal with major guilds. Not to mention what tasks to perform, that's out of the question.
If he had this intention, he would not have refused the invitations from Silver Vislan and other major guilds.
"I think Sister Luo Wei is right," Shui Wuming said with shining eyes, "We will form a loose alliance. We all have our own resources and channels, and we don't have to act together. We can exchange information and share what we have. If there is a chance, let’s take risks together like this again.”
"Loose alliance?" Xiaoyao also became interested, "What kind of loose alliance?"
"Just use the form of a commercial contract," Shui Wuming said: "Internal information is circulated by exchange. Even if there is nothing worth exchanging on hand, it can be priced in the form of general equivalents, and even temporary credit is acceptable. Anyway, everyone has a good reputation. Then agree on the rules and establish a clear boundary - after all, everyone has their own guild and team, but no one wants to step on the wrong side."
"We'll just use Ms. Roman's contract," she hammered her hand excitedly, "That way we'll be foolproof."
Fang Yu was a little moved, this was undoubtedly a favorable suggestion for him. What information can he and Liu Liyue provide? But Luo Wei, Shui Wuming and others obviously took a fancy to the powerful combat effectiveness of the Qihai Brigade.
Of course, the current strength of the Seven Seas Brigade is not as good as the top teams of Silver Vislan and God Killer, but most of those teams are in the second world, so how can they have contact with them?
Take Luo Wei for example, her teammates in God Killer are far inferior to Fang Plover's level.
Therefore, when Shui Wuming took out Ms. Luo Man's contract, Fang Pultru showed no obvious objection. Although Liu Liyue had a weird temper, she was not a fool. Several people signed their names on the draft contract one by one.
This drafted rule simply stipulates the obligations and rights that each person should perform in this organization. According to Shui Wuming, the rules can be further refined, but that must be done jointly by everyone. proceed under discussion.
"After it is perfected, our alliance has been initially drawn up," she took back the contract and told everyone, "Let's establish the rules first. There may be more than just us in the future. We all have many friends, and You can bring them in and the value of this alliance will be higher.”
Fang Yu didn't expect that the other party was already thinking about the long-term future of this alliance just after the rules were created.
He was a little speechless for a moment, thinking to himself, is this the genius of the Grand Guild? With his lazy temperament, this organization probably only consists of the five of them.
Including the Seven Seas Brigade he represents, there will be no more than twenty people in total.
Luo Wei shook her head and stopped: "Although this organization is a loose organization, you, me and Ed, the secrets related to the empire we hold are very important. If you want to add new members, it is best to go through strict review."
"Then strict review," Shui Wuming said calmly, "Then add this to the list. New members must be unanimously approved by everyone."
Fang Yu nodded. To be honest, he didn't know many people who could be roped into this alliance. As for Shui Wuming and the others, he has a natural distrust of the Grand Guild.
Therefore, Luo Wei's proposal can be said to have won his heart.
"Finally," Shui Wuming said again: "Senior Luo Wei, you, me, Xiaoyao, Ed, and Liu Liyue, we are all from the best guilds, Ed himself is the Dragon Alchemist, our organization You can’t even have a name, right?”
She looked at the others and encouraged, "How about giving it a resounding name?"
…
The famous name was finally decided.
At first Shui Wuming proposed the Seven Seas Alliance, but Xiaoyao disagreed, thinking that it was obviously an organization for all of them, how could they just use the name of the Seven Seas Brigade?
And Fang Plover himself felt it was inappropriate.
This name is too obvious, and the relationship with his Seven Seas Brigade can be seen almost at a glance. He didn't want to act in such a high-profile manner, especially since this organization might confront the empire.
In the end, Luo Wei proposed the 'Lilac Alliance'. Ithurian lilac is the flower of the North, with five leaves and blooming only in September, which means that this alliance comes from the founders of five different forces.
Moreover, Ithurian's five-leaf lilac also has a heroic connotation. It once represented the blood of the dragon knight Huma, which was of great significance in the battle between the dragon witch and the dragon witch. It still blooms in the cemetery there.
Fang Plover also liked this meaning very much, because when he first went to El Paxin, he saw exactly this kind of purple-red flowers growing in shady clusters in the garden of Miss Ship Officer.
in that autumn.
Therefore, the Lilac Alliance was finally determined as the name of this loose organization.
Liu Liyue’s evaluation of this is:
"Sissy."
Regarding the establishment of an offensive and defensive alliance with Luo Wei, Shui Wuming and Xiaoyao, Fang Lu also asked other people in the Qihai Brigade, and most of them had no objections to this.
Including the Papalars.
Because Parker was not interested in this at all, he felt like it was torture to stay around these alchemists for even one more second, and he had had enough while underground.
Box was not interested in this either, and Kitta and Miss May would hardly object to his opinion.
Alyssa quite agrees. Miss Nightingale is probably the most sensitive person in the team to information. She hopes that this leader, who she thinks is not doing anything serious, can help her share some responsibilities.
Luo Yu had no objection. The puppet has only just boarded the ship and has no opinion on this. Only Luo Hao briefly asked whether he thought Luo Wei and others were reliable.
The last person to agree was Sylvide.
Miss Ship Officer also believes that drafting this alliance is a matter of great benefit and harmlessness.
"Maybe it will become famous in the future," Sylvester said to him with a smile. "After all, this is an organization founded by the Dragon Alchemist."
Fang Yu scratched his head, knowing that she was probably joking with him.
It was almost two days after the Seven Seas Traveler arrived at Ayinbrok.
At this time, the week's leave had actually been exhausted. On the day of arrival, they received a reply from the delegation, which was a lady asking them to rush to Abbott for a meeting.
But this time everyone was not traveling together.
Because Luo Wei, Xiaoyao and the others still had their own affairs to deal with, they separated from the Qihai Brigade and others in Aiyin Block and went on their way in advance.
And not everyone in the Seven Seas Brigade will go to the Sea of Trees. For example, Luo Yu and Jita will continue to stay in Ayinbrok. After all, there is no decent library in Apenand.
The chest is also looking for his legendary forger, and the Papalar plan to stay with him this time.
For the Kaolin-Ithurian delegation, after the training is completed, they will head to the Silver Tower Orgiffin, and then the Winter Solstice Tower.
Finally, he returned to the Imperial Capital and participated in the Royal Hall Trial of the Holy King's Hall.
Because Fang Plover's goal was to be in the top ten, everyone made an appointment to meet up in the Imperial Capital.
The time is almost two months, that is, May and June, until after the mainland league ends.
After all the travel arrangements were made, Fang Pulmon returned to the gear and magic book, where he visited Pushe, Matri and Laila.
The girl was still the same as she was before they left Ayin Bullock.
It's just that after experiencing the previous setbacks, the other party seemed to be much more mature and stronger. Although he was still timid, he at least dared to greet Fang Plover familiarly.
"Hello, Mr. Ed, long time no see... I'm sorry for everyone from Gears and Magic Books, and me... I really want to thank everyone at the Seven Seas Brigade."
She thanked Fang Plover gratefully, a little shy, but at least she had the courage to say it.
Fang Yu was quite relieved to see the other party regaining his energy. He nodded gently to the other party, indicating that there was no need to be so polite.
The owner of the hotel, the old businessman Pushe, was on the sidelines, talking to Fang Lu about what happened after they left Ayinbrok.
It is nothing more than personnel changes in the upper echelons of Aiyin Block, especially the recent changes in the Patrol Guards Headquarters, but in fact there is no change at all. How can a lesson be able to eradicate some people's deep-rooted chronic diseases? Even if the director is changed, those people will still be there.
However, the patrol guards have indeed reduced the number of visits here recently, which is hard to say is not a good thing for the people living here.
The rest are little bits and pieces.
Pushe has lived here for many years, and is as familiar with everyone on this street as the fingerprints on his own palms. When he talks about these things, Fang Plover also listens with interest.
However, the last incident, which was not related to Aiyin Block, caught Fang Plover's attention.
That thing is not a small thing to say.
The impact of the attack on Grand Duke Owl Eagle finally spread throughout the empire.
…
