Chapter 415: The Sound of the Ship
Before setting off, the number of people on the ship finally reached fourteen.
Although not all of them were holders of the original code, excluding Ronald and Heloise, there were still a full five people on board the ship with the book, including an investigator. The Bureau's ace investigator.
These people exactly match the descriptions on the recruitment orders. They are all types who are near the port area and definitely have combat capability.
Looking at the twelve people around the long table, Claudia looked around carefully, then clapped her hands with satisfaction.
Bang bang -
"Very good. You are all responsible and friendly people who choose to contribute in special times. On behalf of the empire and the royal family, I would like to express my gratitude to you for your response. Now let me confirm for the last time. Before departure, you Is there anything else you want to ask?"
"..."
There was silence around the long table, and no one spoke, so Claudia continued:
"Then please be prepared. There are no ordinary people on our ship. There is no need to be merciful to anyone when facing the target this time."
"Let's go now."
As soon as the words fell, Claudia clicked twice on the side of her body with one hand.
A weak magic power spread from the girl's side, and then, out of sight of the 'passengers', Klein, who was solely responsible for stabilizing the ship and sailing, received the news and immediately activated the spell to completely take over control of the ship.
Standing in the cabin, Ronald and the others could briefly detect the vibration caused by the ship starting, and then this change quickly disappeared completely. Even standing on the ship, it was difficult to notice that the ship was moving forward.
Ronald and Heloise looked at each other in understanding.
Forget about quelling the impact of typhoons on ships. Now even the control of navigation is handled by specialized spellcasters, and the attitude of Greed's ruler has become obvious.
At this moment, Claudia waved her hand and spoke again:
"Everyone, we will arrive at our destination before dawn. If necessary, you can find any room on the ship to rest. But even for rest, I suggest You are wearing clothes, you may encounter enemy attacks at any time on this journey."
Everyone looked at each other, and soon an old man took the lead to walk deeper into the cabin, and he did not forget to murmur: "I am also very old. Well, it's better to take a rest first."
The old man's departure seemed to sound a horn.
I don’t know if everyone really needs a rest, but in a very orderly manner, people left here one by one and went deep into the cabin. In just over a quarter of an hour, there were only a man with his eyes closed in meditation, Claudia, the investigator, and the combination of Ronald and Heloise.
After looking at the man who showed no movement at all, Claudia turned to Ronald and smiled.
"Ronald, we haven't seen each other for a while. Why don't you introduce this lady to me?"
Seeing Ronald being questioned by Her Highness the Princess, Heloise acted very calmly and said just one word Standing quietly behind Ronald, it was clear that Ronald was the leader in answering questions.
"She is Phyllis, and she is currently studying as my apprentice."
Ronald immediately introduced him. After all, he was going to face the enemy next. He bluntly stated Heloise's strength.
"But even though she is still an apprentice, Phyllis is also a powerful holder of the original code, and is especially good at combat."
After hearing Ronald's introduction, Claudia stood up from the chair and walked in two steps Go to Heloise:
"Phyllis, nice to meet you!"
"As you can see, I am Claudia, the temporary commander of this operation. And your teacher Ronald and I also used to work together. My dear friend who has fought, if you need anything, just ask me." "
I'm very happy too -"
Heloise's reaction was much more subtle than the enthusiasm shown by Claudia. With a green smile on her face like an ordinary girl, she simply nodded and saluted Heloise.
"I will definitely not let Mr. Ronald down if I can participate in such an action."
"That's fine."
Faced with Heloise's gesture, Claudia did not directly express her likes or dislikes. After nodding and saluting with the same very polite smile, Her Royal Highness the Princess approached Ronald again and lowered her voice and said, "
Ronald, the person we are going to deal with this time is definitely very powerful. You have to be careful."
Ronald . Nader couldn't help but think of the time when he fought with Claudia, and a nostalgic expression naturally showed on his face: "About this... I think the outcome of this matter will not be any different from last time."
" ..."
"Then I'll wait and see."
Claudia seemed to hear something from Ronald's confident answer.
After thinking for a few seconds, she stopped talking. Calling the ace investigator standing over the long table, the two braved the wind and rain and walked onto the deck of the battleship. It seemed that there was still some work to be done.
Ronald and Heloise, who stayed in the cabin, looked at each other and then walked towards the depths of the cabin.
Tonight's action is rushed.
But the preparations on the ship were very good.
After walking a few meters into the cabin, Ronald and Heloise saw the room prepared in advance on the Springs side. In addition to the well-laid folding beds in the clean cabin, there was even some good food on the table.
"Ronald, what do you think?"
Heloise walked into the room magnanimously, and while bringing beer and bacon bread to start eating, she also made an invitation to Ronald:
"With that Majesty the Queen His behavior habits, the enemy we have to deal with is definitely not weak, this may be a test for the princess just now!"
Ronald sat next to Heloise.
Taking the food from the girl's hand, he spoke his thoughts in a subtle tone.
"How can anyone comment on this operation?"
"As you said, we thugs are probably the 'chess pieces' used by Claudia to prove her ability. Doing unnecessary things is not a good choice. "
That's what I say, but chess pieces can also have their own ideas. The habits of these rulers are very weird." While talking about her own thoughts, Heloise did not give up the idea of giving up the food in her hand, "But I said Get up, Ronald, you have a really good relationship with her. This is a princess, have you ever been tempted?" "Do you want me to
help you take her down?"
Hearing Heloise's words that seemed to not care at all, Ronald was immediately excited, and immediately shook his head and refused:
"Take her? Please spare me..."
In this way, time gradually passed while you and I were talking word by word.
Click——
At this moment, a loud sound of steel bending appeared in the ears of Ronald and the two of them.
The next thing that happened was that the ship's hull suddenly shook violently!
[I’m so tired. I’ll go to bed first if I don’t make up for it at night. 】
