Chapter 956: Inventory of Losses
It is of course impossible for Ronald to refuse an invitation at this time.
What's more, this is an invitation from an old friend.
So the investigator led the way, and the three Ronalds quickly crossed the sea and flew directly from the air to the position of the steamer in the middle.
During flight in the air.
The differences in the experiences of each of the three steamships are also clearly visible.
The ship at the end of the team, because Ronald took the initiative to deal with the enemy, and because the church caster protected the hull very well, the structure of the ship itself did not suffer any damage, and it was exactly the same as it was sailing before the attack.
The ship in the center of the team has the most elite spell casters in Greed.
These elite personnel sit here and kill the attacking creatures at extremely fast speeds. Therefore, except for a small number of personal injuries and some damage to the hull that would not seriously affect travel, the ship and its passengers were mostly in good condition.
Only the ship at the front of the fleet suffered greater damage.
Not only did the battle end at the latest, but even during the battle with the sea monster, two casters unfortunately died and disappeared directly on the sea.
In addition, the bottom position of the ship they were traveling on was also deformed. Although the steamship itself has a structure to prevent water leakage in the hull, if the damage remains like this without repair, it will definitely not be able to complete the voyage as planned.
"..."
Ronald kept this scene firmly in his mind.
After landing on the ship deck in the center, he immediately saw a familiar girl leading people busy on the deck.
——It’s Claudia.
Her Royal Highness the Princess is currently basically locked in as the next ruler of Greed. Therefore, Queen Danterian began to assign many important tasks to Claudia to cultivate her ability to deal with various problems.
It is precisely for this reason that Claudia is the actual top commander of the team on this voyage. Just out of noble habit, Her Majesty the Queen also sent an old nobleman to assist Claudia in her work.
This was the strategist whom Patricia told Ronald about before.
At the same time, Claudia spotted Ronald getting on the boat and quickly approached.
"Ronald, I just saw you take action against that monster."
"My subordinates told me that there was almost no impact on you, but I still want to hear the detailed situation on the ship from your perspective. Attention."
The distance between the two sides was about ten meters, and Claudia took the initiative to wave and say hello.
After the encounter ended, Her Royal Highness the Princess immediately led her trusted confidants to inspect the situation at various locations on the steamer to confirm the actual damage.
As for powerful spellcasters on other ships like Ronald, it was Claudia who ordered her subordinates to summon them in order to learn more about the situation.
In this case, Ronald naturally told the truth:
"I can handle such a sea monster by myself, and the casters of the church on the ship are particularly good at protecting themselves, so we don't have any problems there."
Ronald Briefly describe the situation.
At this moment, the spokesperson from the first ship in the other direction also came over.
Claudia nodded slightly to Ronald, then immediately turned around and asked him about the situation:
"Mr. Soult, what is the specific situation at your side?"
Her Royal Highness the Princess took the initiative to ask, and the magician naturally reported the situation:
"The ship was seriously damaged, and there were casualties."
"But according to the voyage plan, there is absolutely no problem in persisting until tomorrow when it docks." "
..."
"It's so serious..."
For this person who is completely different from Ronald In reply, Claudia thought for a moment, then made an immediate decision and ordered to the surrounding investigators:
"Everyone, according to the areas I just divided, you should immediately conduct the most serious inspection to ensure the normal operation of the ship itself and all The safety of the passengers!"
After saying these words, Claudia turned her eyes to Soult who came over from the first ship:
"Mr. Soult, let's go to the first ship right away to take a look."
"We can still repair the ship this time when we dock, but we may not have such an opportunity next time."
While repeating the importance of protecting the hull to the caster in front of him.
Claudia also took this moment to wave to Ronald, gesturing for him to follow her.
These people all have the ability to fly.
Without the help of others, they took off directly from the steamer in the center and soon arrived on the deck of the first steam cruise ship.
As a result, as Soult stated, the situation on the ship was indeed worse, and hurried figures could be seen everywhere dealing with problems on the ship.
It was just because he had just accomplished the feat of defeating a giant sea monster.
The expressions on the faces of the casters here are not too depressed, but rather there is a sense of excitement of victory.
Detailed inspections are continuing.
Under Soult's personal leadership, Claudia and Ronald surveyed several severely damaged locations on the ship. After confirming that, as the other party said, these damages would not affect the next day's sailing, Claudia was relieved about the attack.
Turn back in the direction of returning to the ship.
On the way, Claudia thought about the uncertain future of the voyage, and couldn't help but ask Ronald a question:
"Ronald, if you encounter a similar attack again, can you spare time to help other ships survive?" Have you survived the crisis?"
"..."
This is a very standard test sentence.
Claudia is confirming whether Ronald is willing to provide more help to the team, and is also determining the extent of Ronald's obedience to Claudia's orders.
Faced with such a temptation, Ronald's mind changed rapidly.
The possible consequences of various answers were immediately analyzed.
Whether you tell the truth about this issue or lie and deal with it, there is a chance that it will cause trouble for you.
You can only change the subject in a clever way!
"Instead of asking for my help, Claudia, I think we should solve this problem fundamentally."
Ronald responded like this, and Claudia was indeed interested:
"Solve it fundamentally Question - Ronald, do you have any good ideas?"
Ronald expressed his thoughts very directly:
"The three big fish that attacked the fleet this time also had signs of magic fluctuations on their bodies. I think it's very strange. It is possible that the fleet's overzealous fishing led to this attack."
"..."
Ronald's prompt really aroused Claudia's thinking.
Her Royal Highness the Princess lowered her head and thought for a few seconds. When she raised her head again, her expression was completely different from before:
"Ronald, I think what you said makes sense." "
I will inform everyone of this news when I go back. Before determining the specific situation, I will not let you know about this." It’s better to slow down the fishing plan for a new type of creature.”
