When Cassim returned to the church, he happened to see Edward walking slowly from the end of the street, as calmly as if he was taking a walk, followed by a few little tails with evil intentions.
Perhaps Edward did not reveal any flaws, or perhaps he sensed a dangerous aura, but the figures that followed him never made a move and hesitated until they saw Edward walking into No. 99 Kerr Street, then they left silently.
"Why don't you do it..." Edward sighed melancholy and concluded: "Maybe I should wear some valuable items on my body."
"Edward!"
Ma Wei stepped forward, looked at his empty hands, and asked, "Where have you been?"
"I went to the dock to say hello to my subordinates." Edward said calmly: "Then I took back the Black Castle to prepare for tomorrow's departure and look for some prey..."
"Don't worry, it didn't hurt anyone." Fat Orange jumped into the church from the window and squatted on the bench. "I have been following it."
Mawei looked at Kasim again: "How is the Church of the Three Destinies doing?"
"It went relatively smoothly." Kasim said, "I have informed Bishop Fowler about your departure tomorrow night."
There is no way that the Church of the Three Destinies will miss this opportunity, and Bishop Fowler will definitely take action. Ma Wei knows this well.
Otherwise, why would he invite three bishops to New Ross City?
Want tea?
Fat Orange and Little Black gathered all the cats together and started the last comprehensive meeting before departure to transfer power and appoint Friday as the temporary leader.
When they heard that Friday had become the new leader, the cats immediately started making noises, generally thinking that Friday was not capable enough to lead them.
but...
In the end, Fat Orange overcame all objections and pressed his paws on the cat constitution he made, making Friday the temporary legion commander.
Upstairs, Yunia folded her clothes one by one and put them into a small plaid suitcase. She didn't have many clothes, only seven or eight pieces in total, and she packed them up in a while.
Then, she carried the little bear and ran to Ma Wei's room. She saw her father staring blankly at a dusty suitcase. She couldn't help but ask: "Dad, what are you looking at this box for?"
"Huh? Oh..."
Mavey took out his handkerchief, wiped off the dust on the box, and replied: "This box was used when I served in the Royal Navy. I will take it with me every time I go to sea."
"Is it something important?"
"Yes, it carries too many memories. Although some of them are not beautiful, they are still a part of life." Ma Wei turned to look at the quiet night sky outside the window and said softly: "This time I set off, I don't know when I can come back. Success or failure depends on this...Have you packed all your things?"
"Yes!" Yunia nodded heavily: "It's all packed!"
"It's very cold in the Romanov Kingdom. Tomorrow we will go out and buy some camel hair coats and other clothes to keep out the cold... We also need to buy some high-calorie food that can be stored for a long time... Fuel is also essential..."
Whispering, Ma Wei began to prepare for the journey across the extreme northern seas.
....................................................
The next evening, the church was extremely silent. All the luggage was packed and loaded on the carriage outside the door. Everyone was quietly waiting for nightfall.
"Father...are you really leaving?"
Mrs. Cecil said reluctantly: "When will you come back?"
"I don't know." Ma Wei shook his head: "I put the income and expenditure book in the drawer of the study. From then on, every month's income will be handed over to Mrs. Cecil and you are fully responsible for it. I also work at Morgan Tailor Shop. Sorry, the Pluto Chamber of Commerce will regularly send some operating funds and loose change. These are profits from the church’s investment business. The change is used to buy food for the cats. You can take care of the rest. ”
"Don't I need to mail it to you?"
"No, most of the funds will be transported to the Romanov Kingdom through trade routes. Aaron is a very good businessman and he knows what to do."
Mrs. Cecil nodded and took out a baggage, "Here are the clothes I sewed with my own hands. Nia also has the clothes I'm wearing inside. You may bring them with you, maybe they will come in handy."
"Thanks."
Ma Wei took the baggage, took out his newly corrected pocket watch and looked at the time. He found that it was only 6 o'clock in the evening, and the sun had not yet set. It was still hanging high above the horizon, bringing light to the world firmly and permanently.
They had to wait until night before setting off. Firstly, because there were fewer pedestrians at night, even if there was a fight, civilians would not be harmed. Secondly, it was not easy to be discovered at night. Starting from New Ross Port, as long as the speed was fast enough, they could arrive at almost four or five in the morning. At the seaport, it was the darkest moment. The Royal Navy blocking the West Island had no radar, so it was difficult to detect their traces. It was an excellent opportunity to cross the sea without concealment.
As long as we can successfully sail into the sea and enter the designated route, we will not encounter danger in a short time.
The supplies they purchased in advance, including fuel, canned food and other necessities such as domestic water and rum, were shipped to the steam icebreaker docked at Pier 1 in the morning. In order to prevent the Church of the Three Goddess of Destiny from understanding their intentions, they immediately Wei also asked Laiwen to use disguise magic to turn the steam icebreaker into an ordinary steam freighter.
Is there anything missing?
Ma Wei thought about it carefully and didn't expect that there was anything else that needed to be prepared. After the arrangements for the believers and the Cat Legion were completed, the most important fundamental was to stabilize the situation. The rest were just icing on the cake, important, but not that important.
The only flaw...
It's just that they didn't say goodbye to the fourth prince Arthur, but such a trivial fact is not worth mentioning.
The city lord's residence.
Arthur stood in front of the window, holding a glass of amber whiskey, staring at the sun sinking a little bit into the horizon, and said to himself: "This is tonight..."
net
"What tonight?" Gulihana asked as she walked up to him.
"Father Mawei and the others are leaving the city of New Ross. Together with my cousin, they will go to the Romanov Kingdom to discuss great matters together."
"tonight?!"
Gulhana's eyes widened: "Why didn't I know? You didn't tell me!"
"Because you must send them off, which will increase the risk of exposure, so I didn't say anything." Arthur said with a smile: "Real brave men don't need all the people to clear the way. The cheers when they return from victory are the best reward for them. !”
"about there."
The last ray of afterglow dissipated in the sky. Ma Wei put away his pocket watch and stood up with the bundle.
He looked around and said to everyone:
"Let's go! Head to the Romanov Kingdom!"
