Start with Island Lord

‘Woo~~~~’

With the low sound of the motor running, the Sturgeon arrived at the East Golden Cape where Levender was.

According to the rough sea chart, the East Golden Cape is a large triangle that tilts upward, which makes the western coastline of the cape generally show a direction of about 20 degrees north by east.

Because of this, if you walk along the northern coastline of the Witt continent, it is equivalent to making a big circle around the Golden Ocean.

When you reach the top of the cape, it is only about 1,800 kilometers away from the Sturgeon Island, which is much smaller than the more than 3,000 kilometers of Kao.

The Flying Fish Islands are just north of the top of the cape, about 150 kilometers away from the mainland.

Laertris's mother and the banshee tribe she led live in the sea where the islands are located.

"Although it is an archipelago, it is actually a large area of ​​densely distributed islands and reefs. The largest island is less than 500 meters in diameter."

"But this sea area is very rich, richer than the triangular sea area, and the area is also very wide, probably more than 500 kilometers in radius. When I left, the number of sisters living here exceeded 20,000."

Laltris, standing on the bow, looked at the islands and reefs in the distance and quietly introduced the situation of the Flying Fish Islands.

Rosen listened carefully and asked curiously: "What is your mother's name?"

"Neferoniya, when I left, she had the magic power of the middle stage of the seventh ring, but it was more than 400 years ago."

"It is said that there was progress later, but I don't know how much progress. After all, we are far apart and rarely communicate with each other."

After a pause, Laltris showed a trace of reverence on her face.

"My mother is the most powerful woman I have ever seen. She is the true queen of the Banshee clan, with strong magic power and extraordinary magic, much stronger than me."

As soon as the voice fell, someone on the boat suddenly pointed to the sea not far away and shouted: "Lord, look, there seems to be something in the water."

Everyone turned their heads and saw a white thing in the water.

Immediately, a wizard released the Eagle Eye spell.

Now everyone can see clearly that it is a mutilated corpse.

A Banshee warrior flew over to observe closely, and screamed in fear.

She flew back immediately: "It's the body of my sister!"

Everyone was shocked.

Rosen immediately ordered: "Pull the person up and take a look!"

A few minutes later, with a "plop", the body was pulled up on the deck.

Rosen approached and examined it carefully.

The body was swollen, but it had not rotted yet, and the death time was no more than two days.

The dark blue hair shows the identity of the deep-sea banshee.

The limbs were basically intact, but there was a severe blood hole in the chest and abdomen, which even pierced the body.

"Swords can't inflict such injuries, and spells are difficult to do. It seems that it was blasted out by a powerful flame weapon."

Or, it was blasted out by a fire gun.

But why would someone go to a place like the Flying Fish Islands and use a new weapon like a fire gun to bombard the banshee?

I can't figure it out, but the terrible power of the weapon made everyone look gloomy.

Laertlis released a pure water divination on the banshee's body.

Ten seconds later, a group of light blue breath emerged from the body, extending to the distance along the sea surface.

"Divination tells me that the body of this sister floated over from the front."

After saying that, Laertlis poured pure water power into the banshee's body again, and then pushed it back into the sea.

The body gradually dispersed and decomposed, and finally disappeared in the sea.

After doing all this, Rosen issued an order to the helmsman without her saying anything.

"Follow the scent and chase them all the way."

Laltris also began to point out the safe route in the Flying Fish Islands.

The Sturgeon flew all the way between the islands and reefs.

After about half an hour, there were more and more things on the sea.

There were corpses.

There were human beings, banshees, and murlocs, all of which were fresh corpses that had just died a few days ago.

Among them, the banshees' corpses were basically injured by muskets, while the murlocs were killed by various group spells. The human corpses were either drowned or fell to death.

The human corpses were wearing standard leather armor. But strangely, although the leather armor was very sophisticated, no identity mark could be found, as if the identity was deliberately concealed.

In addition, there were many tattered wooden boards, sealed wine barrels, and various floating daily necessities.

Finally, everyone actually saw a stranded ironclad warship of more than 70 meters long next to a hard island reef.

From the size, the displacement of this thing is at least more than a thousand tons.

From a distance, it can be seen that there is a big hole in the bottom of the warship, and the whole ship is lying on the island reef.

You can also see a large number of corpses above and around the sunken ship, with the most fishmen, followed by humans, and then banshees.

"An extremely tragic battle took place here!"

Laltris stood at the bow and began to release the pure water divination again.

As the spell took shape, a large piece of blue light appeared in the air in front of her, and a looming picture appeared in the light, and occasionally there were shrill screams.

Rosen was also observing carefully.

According to the war readiness information of various countries recorded in the database, he said: "This is a mid-level golden warship, fully loaded with about 450 soldiers."

"From the damage, it doesn't look like it was destroyed by the fishmen, but it was unlucky to hit the reef."

"The body is lightly decomposed and the damage is very recent. Various details indicate that the battle should have broken out yesterday at noon."

Immediately afterwards, he discovered the biggest reason for the warship to hit the reef.

"The mast of the warship is broken, and it was forcibly broken by a huge force."

"From the broken marks, it should be that a violent airflow suddenly blew up on the sea, which not only broke the mast, but also caused the warship to deviate violently and finally hit the reef."

As Rosen concluded, Laertlis's divination also showed a similar picture.

In a piece of pure water blue light, a vague figure suddenly spread his wings and flapped violently. The blurred light and shadow of the warship shook violently, as if it was pushed by a deep-sea Titan and moved horizontally dozens of meters away.

Laertlis shouted: "This is my mother! She participated in the battle in person!"

On the other side, Rosen also got more detailed information from the mana breath left at the scene, and this information surprised him secretly.

‘The residual mana of the eighth ring strength, the powerful gale spell. This Banshee Queen named Neferoniya is amazingly strong! ’

This is an ironclad warship of more than a thousand tons, and it is estimated to be up to 1,500 to 1,600 tons when fully loaded. It can be blown away by the wind, and even the thick mast can be forcibly broken!

The absolute power of this eight-ring gale spell is so strong.

If it appeared in the ancient times, it would be the absolute master of the ocean, and it could suppress the land people so that they dare not go to sea.

The terrible power of this spell also makes all the spells mastered by Rosen, the ten-ring wizard, seem dim.

‘The source of power should not be the mana itself, but the gale that already exists on the sea. And what the Banshee Queen did should be to use the mana to gather the gale power together. ’

‘But even so, the difficulty of casting the spell is astonishing. It requires extraordinary control of the gale power to be able to pull out such a fierce wind. '

'Lily said that her mother was the true Banshee King. Now it seems that this is still an understatement. This should be called the Banshee God, right? '

If you can do what ordinary people can't, then you are naturally a god.

At this moment, Rosen suddenly felt a few waves of mana approaching rapidly in the sea water, just like the situation when the banshees were found in the triangle sea area.

Laertris also found it. She immediately walked to the side of the ship and cast a silent screaming spell at the sea surface.

'Hiss~~~'

'Splash~~'

A dozen blue-haired banshees suddenly rushed out of the sea, began to circle in the sky, and kept screaming at the Sturgeon.

There was both anger and confusion in the voice.

Laertris stood at the bow, opened her hands and transformed into azure wings. With a fierce flap, she rushed into the sky and joined the banshees.

After the two sides communicated in the sky for a while, the other banshee hesitated to approach, and then hesitated to land on the deck of the Sturgeon.

Rosen looked over and found that this group of banshees was different from those in the Triangle Sea.

They were not completely naked, but had simple clothes made of broad-leaved seaweed on their bodies, covering their private parts as much as possible.

One of the banshees with pearlescent blue feathers followed Laertris and walked towards Rosen cautiously.

Rosen sensed the other party's hidden hostility, so he slowed down his expression and tried to make himself look gentler.

"Lily, what happened?"

Laltriss was anxious: "My sisters told me that a group of evil warriors took my mother away!"

Rosen was also surprised: "When did it happen? Where did they take her?"

The enchantress with pearly blue feathers immediately said: "Just yesterday, your majesty led us to fight against the human ironclad ships."

"There were three ships in total, very powerful, and the sisters were no match for them at all."

"Your majesty tried her best to summon a strong wind to blow the ironclad ships off course and sank one, but she herself was hit by many spells of the human wizards and was knocked unconscious."

"After those evil humans took your majesty away, they immediately turned around and left, even disregarding the lives of their companions."

Laltriss was already anxious, and immediately said: "I'll sense my mother's location!"

As she spoke, she began to release the pure water divination technique.

About three minutes later, she raised her hand and pointed in a direction: "Over there, right over there, my mother is still alive, but her breath is very weak, and her condition is very bad!"

Since this is the case, Rosen immediately waved his hand: "Turn around and chase her at full speed!"

Seeing this, the Banshee Lord of the Flying Fish Islands immediately said: "There is a very scary place on the coast over there, in the direction pointed out by the princess."

"Many sisters are locked up there after being captured. They tortured the sisters madly, and we could hear the sisters' screams from more than ten kilometers away."

"Those humans are very powerful, very evil, and very cruel. They are simply demons on earth!"

Rosen understood that it was most likely that Levender had set up a magic laboratory specifically to study banshees!

But why study banshees?

Rosen is not sure yet, probably because he is curious about the power of banshees.

Because he had done something similar before, that is, by studying the bodies of banshees, studying the azure blessings that give them a strong body.

Of course, because he possessed a sensitivity to magic that was unmatched by ordinary mages, he did it very gently. At most, he would let the banshee bleed a little, or borrow Lai Fu's precise control and use his magic power to explore the banshee's internal body.

But if there is no such magic sensitivity, no Lai Fu's assistance, and the banshee's right to life is completely ignored, then all kinds of inhumane live experiments will be carried out.

This is not uncommon at all.

Not to mention the other world, even on Earth, such things have been happening all the time, and even in modern times, they are everywhere.

On the deck, Laertlis was so anxious that tears were about to fall.

"My mother is a very gentle person. Unless she is forced into a desperate situation, she will never resist so fiercely!"

"Why do these Levender people treat sisters so cruelly?!"

Selling them as slaves is fine, but they actually tortured them with all kinds of torture. This is too cruel, and when Laertlis thought of her mother suffering such a fate, she was almost crazy.

Rosen had nothing to say, so he could only hug her and comfort her softly.

The speed of the Sturgeon reached the extreme, cutting through the waves all the way.

After running wildly for about three hours, a line of coast was seen in the distant sky.

The little banshee lord who followed along quickly introduced the situation.

"There is a hidden bay ahead, with several large ships and thousands of human warriors parked in the bay."

"They are not very powerful, but they carry very terrible fire magic weapons, which will emit a fierce roar and are extremely powerful. If you are hit, you will die."

"By the way, there are also very terrible fire magic weapons on the coast, which are more powerful than the magic weapons in the hands of the warriors. Even if you are touched, you will die, and if you are hit, you will be directly turned into meat paste!"

The tone of the little banshee lord was full of deep fear.

Obviously, it was the artillery!

Aaron got the artillery, and Levender and Kao quickly followed.

Not only were the soldiers equipped with individual muskets, but they were even equipped on the coast as coastal defense weapons.

There was no artillery on the Sturgeon. If it was hit, the hull would be fine, but if it was hit on the power components, it would be troublesome.

He immediately ordered: "Slow down~~~Don't rush to get close!"

Then, he came to the bow and took out a glass telescope to observe the black line on the horizon from a distance.

This distance is actually very far, and even with a telescope, it is not clear.

But Rosen has a rifle to assist in analyzing the field of vision, which can provide a lot of additional information.

However, due to the curvature of the planet, only the top of the cliff high on the coast can be seen here, and the bay below and the ships in the bay cannot be seen at all.

It can also be imagined that unless the other party sets up an observation post on the top of the cliff, they can't see themselves.

Will the other party set up an observation post on the top of the cliff?

Of course, any commander knows the importance of intelligence.

The good news is that they are far enough away, and the Sturgeon is not big, and the color is dark blue.

Even if the other party sets up an observation post on the top of the cliff, it is likely that they can't see themselves clearly.

But they definitely can't move forward.

How to get through?

Rosen thought for a moment and said, "Since there is a powerful army stationed in the bay, a direct confrontation is definitely not possible. We have to sneak over from the bottom of the sea."

"Lily, just the two of us go, so as not to be discovered by the opponent's pure water mage."

Laltris nodded immediately.

"You retreat further, stay hidden, and meet us in the sea. Once we rescue the people, we will immediately get on the boat and leave at full speed!"

"Yes, Lord."

Everyone obeyed the order in unison.

While speaking, Rosen jumped directly into the sea water. After reaching the deep sea, he moved his magic power and showed the form of a steel mermaid.

Laltris followed immediately and followed Rosen's side.

Following that, Rosen had an idea and activated the six-ring pure water barrier "Crystal Wall Without Breath", wrapping both of their bodies inside.

"Let's go, slowly dive over."
