Mysteries of the Earthsea

Chapter 230: Spider

"My lord, in this war, although we are at home, the opponent's strength is too strong, and various unseen weapons emerge in an endless stream. Our navy is about to be unable to hold it, and the Royal Giant has only the last three ships left."

Listening to the subordinates in front of him, Daniel clenched his hands, his face twitched slightly.

When the first cannon sounded, Daniel knew that this day was coming, but it was too soon.

He has a lot of good players, but the opponent’s machine that can fly in the sky is too much to guard against.

When the battle situation expands to the full battlefield, unless the strength is as strong as the Governor of Cat Island Julio, the personal strength is compressed to the minimum.

"The guys who hired the Explorers Association requisitioned all the fishing and cargo ships. They recruited young and middle-aged people on the island to board the ship. Judging from the interception of the enemy's telegrams, they are also supporting them, and what they are fighting now is logistics.

"Your Excellency, there has been a bit of noise on the island recently, and they think they might surrender now..."

"Touch!" The wooden table was directly cracked, and Daniel's roar echoed in the room.

"Then tell those cowards, unless I die, otherwise He Fang Dao will never surrender!!"

Daniel's chest rises and falls sharply. Have those short-sighted people have a good life on the island? If surrender was useful, he had surrendered early.

Dihai’s rules are always winner-takes-all, and the benefits of flattery will only be easily taken away by the winner again.

"Who?" Daniel raised his head suddenly and looked towards the door.

When he saw Margaret coming in from the door, the expression on his face instantly softened.

"Oh, it's my jewel, Jack said that you have done a great job at sea these days."

At this time, Margaret's face was less innocent and more determined. The cruel war had a huge impact on a person.

"My father, my brother asked me to send this over." The girl passed a document in her hand.

"Well, I see, you are defending in the east of the island, with me on the front line. I will never let them occupy Cavendish's island." Daniel reached out and took it.

"Well, I believe Father Father, Father Father is invincible!" Margaret pointed her head.

"This is my good daughter."

There was a bit of bitterness in the corner of Margaret's eyes, "I used to be disobedient when I was a child, and often annoyed my father. I now understand that the world is truly good to me, and only my family is the one."

Looking at the girl in front of him, Daniel showed a gratified smile on his face, "The jewel of our family has finally grown up."

The father-daughter relationship that had quarreled when they met in the past finally heated up again. Just as the father and daughter were talking, a soldier ran in with a scroll.

"Your Excellency, this is a letter from the enemy just now."

Daniel opened the scroll and took a look, the smile on his face became brighter. "Hahaha, today's good things are really one after another."

"My father, what is written on it?" Margaret asked curiously.

"Swann boy can't hold it anymore. He agreed to negotiate outside the sea tomorrow morning."

In this case, whoever speaks first basically means admitting defeat.

The next morning, all the remaining warships on Hefang Island lined up on the sea, and the Governor of Hefang Island, Daniel, with his children, stood on the Royal Giant in the middle.

On the deck, Jack was smoking a cigar leisurely, and he licked soot on the side of the boat. "Having been playing for so long is finally over. I will take a good rest this time when I go back."

"Don't rush to rest! If Swann can't give a satisfactory answer, this matter is not over yet!" Daniel's voice was filled with suppressed anger.

A little bit of time passed, but the British Isles fleet still disappeared, and Daniel gradually became impatient. "Is this kid **** me? What's the point of doing this!"

Margaret asked with some worry: "My father, will he attract my attention here?? Then sneak attack from other places?"

Jack shook his head. "It's unlikely. The other parts of the island, the express shuttle I arranged long ago."

Even though he said that, Jack still asked someone to check the situation.

Soon the news came back, and within 50 kilometers of Hefang Island, no enemy ship appeared.

"Huh! This guy may be too scared to even negotiate. If this embarrassing thing spreads out, I see how he gets involved in the North Sea in the future. Let's go back. Your mother hasn't seen you for a long time."

Daniel on the deck said and walked towards the cabin. Just a few steps away, he saw his daughter and son stunned and didn't move. Their eyes were slightly open and looking at the sea in the distance.

When he turned his head, he was surprised to find that a vague white light appeared on the previously dark sea.

As the light slowly approached, everyone on the ship opened their mouths in surprise. It was not a searchlight from a ship, but a mechanical city with a diameter of two to three kilometers.

Thick black smoke continuously emerges from the chimneys between the tall buildings, and the unimaginable metal gear structure is spliced ​​into the bottom wall of the city.

Ten giant metal legs protruded from both sides of the entire city and plunged into the dark water. Let the whole city look like a giant spider.

Hundreds of ships followed the giant spider and slowly pressed towards Hefang Island.

In front of this shuddering spider, the Royal Giant of He Fang Island was like a toy at this time.

"This...what the **** is this!! Even the most advanced turbines today cannot support such a large machine!!" Jack shouted excitedly.

Daniel's neck was like a rusty bearing, slowly twisting around to look at his son, and now Governor He Fang has a deep despair on his face. "Take your sister and go! Now!"

With a "click", a brass box with a black lens fell from the sky and fell in front of Daniel.

"Isn't this Mr. Daniel, the former overlord of the North Sea? Why doesn't his face look good now?" Inside the brass box, the unusually proud voice of British Isle Governor Swann ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Daniel reached out Picking up the box, he spoke with difficulty. "Swan, you won, Hefang Island and the other two islands are now yours."

"Hahaha!! I was so happy to hear you say this, I almost couldn't help letting you go."

The "KaKa" lens shrank slightly and turned to Marguerite next to it. "Daniel, your daughter is so beautiful. She originally wanted to keep it for use, but unfortunately, she belongs to the Cavendish family, so you can only send your family on the road."

"Om~" A tube stretched out from the lower section of the mechanical city, and a white light appeared in the front section of the tube, and it became brighter and brighter.

"Did you forget the agreement of the Explorers Association! I have already surrendered the island! You must let my family members go!!"

"The rules of the Explorers Association are no longer necessary, because they are outdated. You won't know how amazing the technology I have got. With those things, the whole earth and sea are mine!"
