Realm of Power

w/ww. The pale sunshine shone on the decks of these broken battleships that returned to the port of Antoros with the waves. Fleet Admiral Melundi glanced at the entrance that was completely blocked by the wreckage and hesitated.

He said to his son Myron Lees behind him, "Order the fleet to turn left. There is a yellow beach in the concave area of ​​​​the left wing of the island, because it has been used as a gathering place for smuggling ships for many years. That place is very secret, even the navy on the island I don’t know this, so let’s not talk about the enemy who is not very clear about the port. I I believe that the location where the fleet can dock is, "Father." This time, Mellenlis unexpectedly nodded without any rebuttal, not even a trace of hesitation, and looked at his son who silently walked towards the command post at the stern. , Fleet Admiral Melundi’s pupils flashed with a hint of coldness. The novel chapter is the fastest.

Compared with his previous rebelliousness, his son now looked like a naval officer. After the baptism of blood and fire last night, his previously arrogant and complacent son gave people the impression that he had grown up overnight. It felt so big, and the scene of the tragic naval battle seemed to be lingering in everyone's mind. That battle must have shattered this guy's pride and dreams.

A bitter smile appeared on Melendi's lips involuntarily. As a father, he didn't want to show his wisdom and strength as much as possible in front of his son, but as an empire's naval admiral, he wanted to let the younger generation know the true definition of the navy," the novel "Novel chapters are the fastest

It is not only the glitz full of victory and glory, but also the hard battle of iron and blood, the collision of faith and faith, and the courage to make decisions at critical moments. These are the things that are more important than the glamorous appearance. The original self was facing When the Admiral of the Navy made a request for resolute pursuit, he also had the same awareness that victory would lead to death. Victory and defeat were just a matter of thoughts. Any carelessness could lead to irreparable destruction of the fleet.

In the tense port of Antoros, when it was discovered that the approaching fleet was our own imperial warship, the alarm bells in the port stopped. The Dunker people who were cleaning up the ruins of the port raised their heads and looked at it in confusion. The fleet in the distance suddenly stopped on the sea

Fei Wu, the admiral of the Antros Defense Fleet, stood on a ruined wall in the port with an excited expression. The sunlight above his head shone down, dragging a long shadow on the ruined wall.

He had received a report from the port. Judging from the fleet flags flying on the battleships, the arrival was probably the Melundi patrol fleet, one of the major fleets. This made his battered heart burn again. ,

As one of the main fleets that the Imperial Navy is proud of, Lord Melendi's fleet ranks third among the main fleets of the Imperial Navy, second only to the Borodi Fleet on the border of the Northern Sea and the fleet guarding Antokaton, the offshore center of the Empire. The Antuoka fleet, such a powerful fleet, is enough to ensure that the port of Antoros will not suffer such terrible attacks again before it is repaired.

But he soon discovered that the black spots of warships that could be seen on the sea were only a dozen or so. "Is this still Lord Melundi's fleet? One ship, two ships..." Admiral Fei Wu stood stunned. ·The bloodshot and shocked eyes kept scanning the sea surface, trying hard to search for the shadows outside the fleet,

Unfortunately, he was disappointed. There were no more shadows of other battleships on the empty sea. Even those that could be seen looked like eggplants beaten by frost. The sides of the thick battleships were full of holes and debris. The mast was tilted this way and that, and a large piece of the sail above was cut off. On several battleships, sailors could still be seen pouring water out. I don’t know how they got here.

The Merendi fleet, known as one of the main forces of the empire, actually arrived this time with only 16 ships, which was less than half of the expected number of warships.

"Did even Lord Melendy's fleet fail?" Deep frustration and hesitation permeated the heart of this local admiral who dreamed of entering the imperial fleet. At this moment, he felt a little lucky. Although as a of a local fleet Admiral, in terms of status, title and reputation, he is not as good as the main fleet of the empire, but at least one thing is pretty good, that is, he does not have to go to the ocean to fight, and he does not have to be swallowed up by the sea due to failure. "What, you said Myron Dee’s fleet is coming?”

In the Governor's Palace on the island, Luo Ailei, the undersecretary of the Imperial Coastal Defense who had just been helped back to his room by his attendants, felt as if his whole body was being wound up when he received the news of the arrival of the Merendi fleet. With a speed that even the attendants could not match, he ran towards the carriage that was parked at the door and had not yet left. "Hurry, let's go to the port."

Luo Aile jumped on the carriage without any regard for his identity. During the raid, his ship also had its stern rudder damaged due to the chaotic steering of his companion ship. Now he can only be stranded in this isolated overseas island of Antoros. On the island, although the scenery here is beautiful, the sea and sky are the same color, open the window and You can enjoy the magnificent sunset and moonrise on the sea. In order to please this big man who was frightened at the port, Governor Giliffe even asked his favorite mistress to accompany him. But what the Marquis of Loire wanted to do most was to leave this place immediately. Like a ruined place hit by a natural disaster,

It was so terrible. When he thought of the chaos of banging explosions and people running around at that time, the deputy minister of coastal defense felt cramps in his calves. He was so unlucky and lucky.

Unfortunately, someone who is so delicate and knows how to avoid danger could appear in the wrong place at the wrong time. Fortunately, just look at the poor local governor who is still in pain.

The poor guy was standing less than half a meter away from him. The wood fragments shot out of the explosion bypassed him and penetrated the governor's always straight belly. However, he was only covered in ashes. It was really It's incredibly lucky. If that fragment of bullet hits him... Luo Ailei doesn't dare to think about it. He is already forty-one years old, but he is not married and has a lot of illegitimate children. "No matter how good the thing is, It also takes life to enjoy it”

These are the words that the old Marquis of Loaire personally taught to his son at his sixteenth-year-old coming-of-age ceremony, surrounded by more than 20 gorgeous women. This has also become the life principle of the deputy minister of coastal defense.

"Stop, your carriage is being used. We need to use it to transport wounded soldiers." A group of disheveled sailors with tired faces coming from the direction of the beach stopped his carriage.

"Asshole, this is the carriage of Mr. Luo Ailei, the deputy minister of coastal defense. Even your governor, in front of Mr. Luo Ailei, can only nod and bow down." The coachman shouted angrily, causing the faces of the dozen sailors to flash. After a moment of hesitation

"Lo Aile...have you heard of it?" A sailor looked at another sailor,

"It sounds like he is a big shot," the soldiers whispered. A sailor wearing a red scarf carefully glanced at Luo Ailei on the carriage. "It looks like he is. Look at the clothes that guy is wearing." Very gorgeous”

"You bastards and these despicable people should be hanged."

When he heard that his noble name was being carried around by a few insignificant sailors, the Marquis of Loaire, who was sitting in the carriage, was so angry that he was about to explode. He was ready to step out of the carriage himself and throw away these ignorant people. sailor slap photon

At this time, a naval officer came from the direction where the dozen sailors were walking. He was a young officer in his twenties. The right sleeve of his clothes was empty and the navy badge on his shoulder showed that he was a young officer. first mate

"team leader……

"Look." The sailors looked at the carriage with embarrassed expressions. Although they were not nobles, they could still tell that the other party was a big shot, at least a high-ranking noble.

"In the name of the Imperial Navy, can you please help us?" The young officer came to the carriage nervously, raised his head and said in a sacred voice. The carriage driver in front turned to look at Luo Ailei in the carriage.

"How can I help?" Luo Ailei poked his head half out, with a gloomy expression. The other person spoke in the name of the Imperial Navy, which made it difficult for him, the deputy minister of coastal defense, to refuse directly. "We need to requisition this carriage." The officer secretly breathed a sigh of relief. , the name of the Imperial Navy is indeed effective.

He respectfully paid a military salute to Luo Ailei and said, "Sir, we still have many wounded soldiers on the battleship. Because this is not a port, we can only use our own methods to send them to the doctor. Otherwise, they will "Wounded soldiers who will all die of infection? Are you sailors from the Merendi fleet?" Luo Aile said with a cold face, "Yes, I am the first mate on the fleet Ansari, these sailors "They are all from the fleet." The officer responded with a serious look, "You are defeated?" Luo Ailei's face became more and more serious. He saw more and more sailors appearing on the road, and many people's eyes were focused on his carriage. He felt a sense of disgust. "No, we fought bravely and almost captured the opponent's warship." The officer was smart and did not respond directly. Instead, he raised his head and said, "Hey, Iyalik, why are you still dawdling?"

In the crowd, an officer walked over with a blood-soaked bandage on his head and a corpse on his right shoulder. To be precise, it should be half a corpse. In the strange silence, this tall man walked over. The officer came to the carriage with a sullen face,

He glanced at Marquis Roaire, who was covering his nose with his hand and looking disgusted. Two dangerous glares appeared in his eyes. After taking a deep breath, his voice was filled with anger, "Is it terrible? This is... My brother’s body, I promised him, I will definitely let him return to the land.”

"Okay, if you have anything to say, you can say it directly, but please put this dirty corpse away. He is really disgusting." Marquis Luo Aile's face had lost its former elasticity and luster, and turned gray.

"What is dirty? This is the body of a soldier who fought for the Imperial Navy. He sacrificed his life to fight the enemy, but lost his precious life because the commander fled."

The expression on the officer's face and the corpse carried on his right shoulder are chilling.

"Imperial Navy? Are you calling me the Imperial Navy? You rude fellow... I am Luo Ailei, the deputy minister of the Imperial Coastal Defense Department. You will be hanged for offending your superior this time."

The Marquis de Loire's eyes were full of fear, and even his scolding and scolding voice lacked life. He really regretted it now. Why didn't he wait for the attendants to follow?

"Deputy Chief of the Coastal Defense Department?" The sturdy naval officer was stunned for a moment, and said to himself, "First-class sailor Pardo... This man is the deputy chief of the Imperial Coastal Defense Department who you are fighting to the death for. ah

"In this case, please give me a hug of thanks from the deputy chief as a reward for your loyalty." The angry naval officer suddenly opened the door of the carriage, and "snap" he threw the soldier's body he was carrying on his right shoulder with all his strength. Towards the Marquis of Loire, there is no time to escape, Almost as if it was a reflex action, Marquis Luo Aile opened his arms and caught the sailor's body that was flying towards him with only the upper body left. As if hugging each other, he screamed "Ah" in a miserable way, which made Luo Aile himself The screams that are incomprehensible and the luxurious interior of the carriage The seats rolled together on the carpet, but it was too crowded here. Even if he fell to the ground, his hands were still holding the soldier's body. Luo Aile seemed to suddenly notice something. He turned his head and let out a weird cry again. He screamed and pushed the soldier's body away with all his strength," "Bah, the Imperial Coastal Defense Department has never seen such a thing on the battlefield." The officer laughed loudly, and the sailors around him staggered with laughter. In the Imperial Navy, everyone knows that the so-called Imperial Coastal Defense Department is a The most useless department'

The so-called Imperial Coastal Defense is something with no actual definition at all. Exploring frontline islands is called Coastal Defense, and renovating naval ports is also called Coastal Defense. Their job is to patrol around and extort some property. There are rumors that the Imperial Coastal Defense Department has one every year. Millions of gold coins were handed over to His Majesty the Emperor. To put it bluntly, the Imperial Coastal Defense was mainly an idle department used by His Majesty the Emperor to make money. As for a real fight, the men of the Coastal Defense Department would immediately run away without a trace.

The sound of stampeding and rushing on the road came. At this time, the attendants who had been dragged a short distance just arrived. Hearing Luo Ailei's screams, the rushing horses rushed straight towards the group of sailors and "get out of the way." Do you want to die?" the attendants shouted arrogantly on their horses, and the frightened sailors got out of the way.

"Kill him, kill this rude and impudent guy." At this moment, the Marquis of Loaire ran out of the carriage full of minced meat and blood, pointed at the officer and shouted loudly, but the officer did not Trying to escape, he just stood quietly, looking coldly at the pale Marquis de Loaire, and a strange smile appeared on his face covered with bloodstains and sadness.

Several knight swords of the squire were thrust at him from the front..."Cang"

A dazzling cold light pushed aside the stabbing swords of the attendants, and a young and burly figure walked out of the crowd, "Do you want to kill a naval officer who fought for the Empire all night in front of the Imperial Navy?" It’s Myron Lees”

There was a low voice from the sailors all around, and the man who came out was none other than the son of the fleet admiral Melundi. If the fleet sailors were still a little confused about the admiral's young master before, after a night of fierce fighting, this man was covered in blood. Master Admiral, Like them, he took the lead in the battle and took the lead in many charges. Although he was forcibly taken away by the guards in the end, the figure of this young master has made many sailors remember him. "Kill him, I want both of them." "Death" Luo Aileihou who was already mad Jue shouted angrily to the attendants, "Are you just going to watch your brothers being killed?" Myronlis's sword was placed across his chest, "Damn it, kill them." The sailors around him had just experienced defeat. I don’t know how much resentment I have buried in my heart. Renlis was excited, and a crowd of people gathered around him excitedly. "What do you want to do...I am the deputy director of the Imperial Coastal Defense Department." Luo Ailei looked at the menacing sailors around him, and his face, which had been stern just now, suddenly panicked. Thousands of people suddenly panicked. The sailors took him and a dozen attendants From the surrounding area, many sailors had already drawn out the daggers they used for fighting at their waists. Their bloodshot eyes made them want to eat them alive. "My lord, I heard that Master Mellenlis was having sex with someone in front of me. Conflict "on the beach where the fleet docked, Melundi, who had just stepped off the deck, received a report from a confidant captain, "Who is the other party?" Melundi asked nonchalantly, "It seems to be Deputy Commander Luo Ailei." The captain who came to report the news came to the corner of his mouth. With a smile that could not be concealed, "I heard that he was beaten very badly, first Luo Ailei wanted to kill one of our officers, and then the young master ran out to uphold justice, and then our sailors started fighting in a group. It was very chaotic." "Luo Ailei? How did the two of them meet?" Mai Lundy raised his head in surprise and frowned slightly. , asked, "Is anyone dead?" "No," the captain said with a look of shame and anger. "Although the beating was very fierce, Master Mellenlis still did not kill him. He just ordered Deputy Commander Luo Ailei and More than a dozen of his attendants were tied to tree trunks on the roadside for people to visit."

"It seems that after a night of training, this guy has learned to grasp the scale." Hearing this, Melundi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He waved his hand to the captain, "Forget it, just treat this matter as if I don't do it." I believe that after this, at least that guy Luo Ailei will not have the face to harass us again in a short period of time. Otherwise, as the Deputy Minister of Coastal Defense, he would force us to escort him away. It would be really difficult to refuse."

"But this time, the Ministry of Coastal Defense has been completely offended," the captain said with some worry.

"Coastal Defense Department? Haven't you seen it yet?" Melundi gave a bitter smile, looking at the sea in the distance and said, "On the other side of the sea, in that unknown land, a debate that shook the entire empire's coastal defense was about to begin. It's coming, and in the face of this debate, the gentlemen of the Coastal Defense Department will hide as far away as possible. Do you still expect to seek help from them?"

"Have you found the Normandy?" Melendi suddenly asked as if he had thought of something.

"No, it was so chaotic at that time, it is very likely that it has sunk to the bottom of the sea with other warships." The captain said hesitantly.

"I don't know why, but I always have a feeling that the Normandy people seem to have been hiding something from us, otherwise why would they suddenly let us take this route?" A hint of coldness flashed in Melendy's eyes.
