Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea.

On the vast sea, a giant ship floated quietly, accompanied by four frigates.

This giant ship is naturally the Margot. As for the four frigates, they are new frigates belonging to the Austrian Navy, the Novara-class frigate - the name comes from the first frigate of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

However, these four Novara-class frigates are now "leased" by Blackwater International and employed by Josie, the Dutch governor, so they fly the Dutch flag.

In fact, this kind of frigate cannot be said to be very advanced, and its specifications are also very low, with a full load displacement of only 3,600 tons.

Its prototype is the Garcia-class frigate built by the United States in the 1960s. It is also the last traditional frigate built by the United States. After that, it will be the era of guided missile frigates.

It's not that Qiao Xi doesn't want to build more advanced battleships.

It's just that the navy is different from the army and air force. It can't be formed quickly with technology.

In terms of the army and air force, Austria has a good foundation. Its various heavy industries are also very developed, and its engine technology is very advanced. The famous Steyr automobile was the earliest Austrian enterprise.

After annexing Bavaria, Austria's industrial strength has been strengthened to an epic level.

The famous Messerschmitt, BMW, Audi, Siemens, etc. all originate from Bavaria.

Therefore, with these strong foundations, it was possible to quickly establish a corresponding land and air military industrial system after Qiao Xi came up with the technology.

But the Navy is a completely different story.

Since the disintegration of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Austria's loss of access to the sea, the entire large ship industry has been completely shut down, starting from scratch without any accumulation of technology.

Even if one has the corresponding technology, it is impossible to become a fat man in one breath and then develop advanced gadgets such as aircraft carriers and large-scale drives.

Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if the boat capsized after entering the water.

Well, that’s right, I’m talking about Ah San.

Therefore, the navy can only start with small and medium-sized ships and slowly accumulate experience.

The frigate is obviously a very good choice.

And even if it is a frigate, it can still be played well.

For example, these four frigates are equipped with anti-submarine helicopters, which is a pioneering move in this era.

However, these four frigates are said to be leased by Blackwater International, but in fact the crews on them are still from the Austrian Navy. They just changed their military uniforms and changed their national flags.

Its real purpose is just to accumulate some ocean-going experience in the name - although the Margot is a cruise ship, its special internal configuration actually makes it stronger than ordinary destroyers and does not require escort at all.

At this time, Josie was leisurely playing golf on the luxurious top deck of the Margot.

After the New Delhi incident, he separated from Claire Vaillant and the others, and took his people to Nepal first, where he met up with the first group of Jedi who ran there. After recovering the Apocalypse Tank, he took a plane from Nepal via Baba Sheep, and boarded the

We boarded the Margot, which had been swimming in the Arabian Sea for a long time.

With a bang, just as Qiao Xi hit the ball dozens of meters and fell far into the sea, he saw Vito walking over from the other side.

"Boss, Ophelia sent a message that the man has been arrested and it is expected to be delivered in two hours." Vito said after walking to Josie's side.

"Is there nothing wrong?" Qiao Xi nodded and asked.

"No, Mumbai, like other places in Asan, is very chaotic now, so no one noticed Ophelia's actions at all." Vito shook his head and said.

There is no doubt that the "Natasha Romanoff" who led the people to capture Golden Hook in Mumbai was actually Ophelia, and the others who cooperated with her were the first Jedi team that previously ravaged New Delhi.

.

Two hours later, a small cargo ship appeared on the sea far away from the Margot.

After the two parties came into contact, a container was transported from the small cargo ship into the special warehouse of the Margot.

"Huh? This feeling?" Qiao Xi rushed over after getting the news. As soon as he walked into the warehouse, he felt something was wrong.

"Boss, is there something wrong?" Ophelia, who was waiting here, immediately stepped forward and asked strangely.

"There is indeed something wrong - it seems that these Eternals are more interesting than I expected!" Josie's face looked a little weird, and there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.

The reason was that when he walked into the warehouse, he felt an unexpected surge of free mana in the warehouse.

Mana is a kind of energy floating in the air that he felt after learning the Five Elements spell given to him by Cai Lin in the legendary world of gods and ghosts.

But as for what mana is, the books only know it but don't know why.

What is certain is that mana is the basis for controlling the five elements.

However, it is a very difficult and long process to extract and mobilize mana from the air, because generally the amount of mana contained in the air is very low.

The reason why Qiao Xi was able to quickly master the Five Elements spells was largely due to the Fountain of Youth, an otherworldly treasure that contained a wealth of mana.

But now, Qiao Xi clearly felt that the mana level in the air in this warehouse was several times the normal level, and it was very active.

It wasn't the first time that Josie walked into this warehouse, but it was the first time that she felt this way.

This shows that the problem does not lie with the warehouse, but with the goods in the warehouse.

So Qiao Xi's eyes were immediately locked on the container that had just been transported onto the ship - what was inside was the Eternals' golden hook.

At the same time, the information about the Eternals came to mind again.

The Eternals are the creations of the Celestials.

The Celestial Clan is the head of Marvel's creator gods, the eternal creators and assistants, and the most powerful energy producers in the physical universe.

It is they who give the Eternals the ability to absorb unlimited energy from the universe.

It is precisely because of their endless cosmic energy that the Eternals have nearly eternal life and can use the unique abilities bestowed upon them by the Celestials with near-unlimited use.

So - mana is actually the energy of the universe? Or is it an energy that is the same as the energy of the universe?

Josie couldn't help but think so.

However, one thing that is basically certain is that the existence of the Eternals will have a certain impact on the mana in the air.

Otherwise the changes in mana content in the cargo hold cannot be explained.

I just don’t know if he can directly draw mana from the Eternals.

If I could... A crazy idea quickly began to take root in Josie's mind.

"Open the box!" Josie's eyes towards the container began to become extremely eager, which made Ophelia, who didn't know what was going on, look confused, and even wondered if there was something wrong with Josie's orientation.

However, under Josie's order, she still had the container opened honestly.

As the container opened, the golden hook, which was pierced through the bones and imprisoned in layers, with almost no room for body movement except for the head, also appeared in front of Qiao Xi.
