Vol 4 Chapter 73: The test of Augustus (five k)

"The question is not here, but what happens at the end of the voyage. (o)"
Murphy didn't answer the question of the other side's grievances. Obviously, the princess said that after drinking too much, Murphy was caught off guard.
"It's very simple. I find a country to go to and marry a similar prince, so that Ingeway behind me can establish a good cooperative relationship with them, and you-the arrogant of the Byzantine heaven, the dragon knight, then Lead your fleet to glory and scuttle all the way"
Halfway through her words, she suddenly became sobbing-the princess holding the wine glass in her hand lowered her head, and let the big teardrop slide down on the table.
Murphy pressed his lips slightly, not knowing what to say.
Obviously, how sad is a princess who was traded by her mother as a goods transaction? How hard is she desperate to escape to this level?
I am afraid that only she knows it, and as Murphy, who is envied by Xia Lan and envied even as a "benchmark", the only thing she can do at this moment is to take the wine glass away from her hand and whisper: "If you don't want to be Eat it and let the fleet with Byzantium march before reaching the end."
"There are a lot of resources in the mainland of Winner. At present, we will not let us fight for your life now, shall we?"
Murphy put down this sentence, got up, and walked to the distance to Ashcandi and Andaril who had been staring at it. As soon as he sat down, he found that Little Loli stared at herself with some air.
"how?"
"How do you know her? Explain to us!"
Andariel wanted to take Ashkandi as a backing, but the unfamiliar red eyes queen who sat beside her at night was helpless, so it was inevitable to be half-hearted.
However, Ashcandi nodded with a smile, and cooperated with Erlang's legs, pretending to be serious to Murphy: "Answer her question."
"A princess about to marry a stranger sooner or later." Murphy shrugged and explained briefly how many times he met Princess Xiaran, because he didn't have too much affection for the princess, so it was easy for him The two beauties no longer discuss this issue, but ask for the information of the three-headed dragon.
"The ocean is more extensive than the land. Although the appearance of the "sea monster" is not impossible, it is not easy to appear on this occasion." Murphy said that the guy who attacked the fleet gradually looked serious. , "There are very few records about the "sea monster" in the history books. In my case, I have never seen even one word about these things."
"But they are not unexpectedly powerful, are they?" Hydera easily defeated the three-headed dragon. Obviously, it has more than six heads not only in the number of heads.
"The appearance, it can be seen that it is not an adult Yalong who simply follows the wild. Obviously something in the ocean has manipulated its behavior-perhaps the legendary mermaid in the mouth of the sailors, or"
He lowered his tone slightly, looking at the two captains in the distance who were sullen and frowning. "Some guys who shouldn't be in this plane seem to have started their actions."
In the following days, everything was calm and calm. Hydera’s patrol over the fleet made all crew members enjoy an unprecedented sense of security. When the distant word of the dragon knight suddenly came to their side, they realized that the other party did not I was so high in my imagination. On the contrary, as a member of the Byzantine envoys, Murphy did not ask the fleet to give any special treatment, but just pushed the beauty who came here with him during the day. The woman stood on the side of the ship looking at the endless seascape, and the little girl who was not tall would climb to the lookout tower at the top of the mast and yell.
No sea monsters, no weird storms, no huge wave routes, no deviations and clear skies. In short, everything went well.
One day away from the destination, Ingeway's fleet was finally separated from the Byzantine fleet-this "temporary maritime alliance" state can be described as rare in history, Princess Sharan never appeared, Murphy appeared and Ingeway The commander ended the "cooperation" with a brief conversation face to face. When leaving the main ship, he only glanced at the figure who was looking at himself in the cabin.
Immediately, he and the Byzantine fleet marched towards the established port-but the night before the fleet was about to land, Murphy disappeared from the Constantine after saying hello to Ashcandi. At the stern.
The dark water at night always gives people an inexplicable sense of fear. The calm water surface does not reveal any strange things, but Murphys flying in the air does not think so.
"puff!"
Thousands of kilometers after the end of the Byzantine fleet, Murphy suddenly fell from the sky and plunged into the deep sea.
The dark water stretched out his fingers, but this did not give Murphy any sensory obstacles. He closed his eyes and was pure enough to replace his eyes with the perceptive power of those who should not be here. presence.
This muffled sound shocked the shallowly-swept fish, but when he dived down with his breath, he immediately felt that a few huge guys were coming!
The huge head suddenly swept across the front of Murphys. The cone-shaped head was no different from the three-headed dragon that attacked the fleet. The most strange thing was that there were two other heads swimming at the same time!
What did these guys keep quietly following the fleet for? This is already considered as offshore waters. According to common sense, there will be a place where you can reach the mainland in one day, but this kind of huge deep-sea creatures will rarely appear-and they are dragons. Even if they are Yalong, they are not easy to be affected by. The existence of human slavery.
Murphy's breath was almost completely concealed when he was in the water. The three-headed dragon that swiftly swam did not find the level of Murphy's horror, and Murphy sensed all the movements in the nearby waters, and quickly discovered anomalies— — Not far away, a mysterious guy who followed Yalong made Murphy suddenly realize
Those legends about mermaids seem to be true.
In the dark waters, a team of more than three hundred mermaids gathered in a cone to follow the deep sea behind Yalong. In Murphy's perception, these guys' bodies are longer and stronger than ordinary humans, and the upper body It is a well-proportioned human body, with a "gill" similar to a fish on the neck, and a black body with a length of two meters. The speed of their movement in the water is no less than that of the Asian The dragon, holding a trident-like weapon in most hands, although a simple appearance, was murderous and awe-inspiring.
Their eyes were open in the sea, and occasionally a flash of white light flashed when reflecting the faint moonlight.
Seeing this, Murphy didn't say anything and released a spherical "water avoidance" directly into the water-he didn't want to wait for this group of guys to launch a second attack on the fleet of Byzantium or Ingeway.
"Bum--"
The buzzing sound spreads faster in the sea water than on the land, and the fast-moving fish people suddenly changed their formation like a school of fish. Although they have not seen the figure of Murphys, this group obviously has training. Su's guys instantly showed a net-shaped outstretched formation-obviously no matter what was ahead, they did not have a trace of fear at all!
Behind Murphys, the three-headed Yalong also began to turn his head and move in the opposite direction.
Murphy, who was standing in the enchantment, was not wetted by people and sea water, but suspended in the spherical enchantment quietly, looking at the fish people who rushed straight ahead and prepared to pierce themselves with a spear , Frowning slightly.
He raised his hands, one pointed to the Yalong used, and the other pointed to the mermaids
"To be honest, I have always had a problem."
Andariel grabbed the tall ship's side and looked at the dark sea under the moonlight in the distance, and some fascinated said to the red eyes queen beside him: "Why does he always run around? This time from Cissé I'm afraid Lin's distance has exceeded the limit I imagined. It's not good to stay in Lampard honestly?"
"bottleneck."
Ashkandi's figure seemed a bit cold in the dark. Obviously, this kind of strangeness is still vividly displayed when Murphy is not around, and only Andariel will ignore these things and still stand. Beside her.
"What is the bottleneck? Is there any bottleneck in his strength?"
Although Andariel’s psychological age is not big, it is obvious that the cognitive things are much higher than the so-called
same age
, and somehow it is also an
old monster
similar to Ashcandi, and two women of terrifying age talk about it It's not embarrassing at all.
"Mpheus I know has never been a curious person, he always keeps restraint on the new things and this time, Murphy said that it is to bring new weapons to the territory-lame reasons, but who Will you go to face to face again?"
The Queen looked at the stern where Murphy's figure disappeared, and she was a little preoccupied: "He has changed a lot, and since the return of the angelic plane, I can see his efforts-no matter when and where he is working hard, But he always had fear in his heart."
"What else would he be afraid of?" Andalil asked, raising his eyebrows, raising his head slightly to the side, looking at the red eyes higher than himself.
Ashcandi took care of the long hair blown away by the sea breeze, looked down at this little girl whose soul energy was no less than his own, and said: "People want to lose their "fear" is very simple. Just hang up-like the one I used to be; and no matter how powerful you are, once you feel trapped in your heart, the fear will follow."
"I am the same now."
As soon as the voice fell, a thunderous muffled noise came from a distance, turned his head, and under the light of a kilometer away, the water mist rising in the sky was as spectacular as a "water tornado".
"Are those enemies?"
Andariel didn't have many unexpected expressions, and the soul link allowed her to feel intuitively how Morpheus was feeling at the moment.
"No, just arrogant guys."
Ashcandi replied faintly, looking at the muffled noises that kept coming in the distance.
The fleet arrived at Lukang, the port of Augustus, the capital of Augusta, the largest country in mainland China.
The name of the city is "Vieira", which means "Pearl in the hands of Mar" in Augustus-but Murphy was not too interested in it, looking at the new continent, Murphy Pushing the green-eyed Ashkandi wheelchair off the ship, the crew was writing in order to bring the goods brought on, while Murphy and his party received as special envoys were directly led by the royal family of Augustus The carriage was received in the center of the city-the Palace "Paris".
Traveling across the ocean for thousands of miles, the customs here are naturally different from any country such as Byzantium or Balice. Murphy can see that the most common costume here is the robe-and it is also a robe covering the face, and on the street All women, regardless of age, wear a veil and only show a pair of eyes.
The climate here is dry and hot, as if there were no clouds in the clear sky for 10,000 years. Most of the building caps are hemispherical, and the taller ones will be coated with glittering golden paint, and the "carriage" on the street is not The horses were pulling, but they were tall camels with humps.
As Andalil asked with some excitement, Murphy was sitting in a spacious carriage, looking through the round window at the bustling streets outside. Opposite him, he asked softly: "Do you still not like the strange environment?"
Murphy nodded in denial and replied: "I'm just thinking, if those guys in the sea came to the land, what kind of situation would they feel uneasy like me?"
"You mean those legendary mermaids?"
"It's not'legendary', they are bigger than I thought, but their brains don't seem to work well." Murphy still frowned, "but why did they stare at the fleet of Byzantium and Ingeway How can it drive Yalong? It’s not like a coincidence, but—"
Before he finished speaking, he felt his palms cool-Ashkandi didn't talk much, just held his palm lightly, so that Murphy stopped the words instantly.
"Hopefully I think too much."
The capital of Augustus can be described as no less prosperous than Constantine. As the Byzantines who recently established diplomatic relations with this empire, the excellent envoys who have only come here once have solved the communication problems through language learning time. The carriage's Murphy was allowed to enter after a series of weapons inspections, while Ashkandi and Andaril and Pierre and other fleet personnel went to the arranged station.
Walking into the Palace of Paris, if Murphy's first impression of this place is "golden brilliance".
Perhaps because of the constant glare of the sun, the buildings of the Augustus mostly used gold as the main tone of the building-before Murphys could tell that the roof of most buildings was painted, but when it came to this scale In the huge palace, he can be sure that all the huge spherical domes of the original building are covered with pure gold!
Not only the roof, but also the decorative lines of the round stone columns, the ornaments placed in the corridor, and even the surface of the murals or characters on the roof.
Even Constantine could not use gold as a raw material to decorate the palace so luxuriously-the royal family may have the highest gold content, only the crown of thorns above Edward III, but obviously here, gold is simply the same material as money.
It's no wonder that Hasselblad had so much gold in his chart logs that he dare to feel that the gold here is not expensive.
"Master Murphy, your identity as a dragon knight is something that Your Majesty personally affirmed to emphasize with the Augustus, so there is one thing--"
"I brought the dragon over. You can rest assured that if you need to show force, I will not refuse."
Murphy, who appeared as a Byzantine messenger, knew exactly what he needed to do, so he talked to the envoy who was a "translator", and then came to the round main hall.
There is no icy marble floor here, but only completely hand-woven art-like rugs-this huge carpet in the whole main hall is a whole, a work woven by senior artisans who took a generation of talents. Compared with the gold foil of the same area, the breath coming out is equally luxurious and unusual, but Murphy just frowned and focused on the center of the hall in front of him. There was no other person who looked up here for the first time. Mobo.
Because he knew that the people in front of him were not kings of the August Empire.
A middle-aged man in a golden and red robe smiled and greeted Murphy with the "translator"-"Welcome to the Augustus, respectable envoy, I am Ozra Van? Passalgad, if by Byzantine terms, I should be the'prince' of this country."
"His Royal Highness."
Murphy did not abide by the noble rituals, but his eyes did not have too much flattery, and he did not wait for what the prince, who had always been laughing, said bluntly: "When facing the emperor of Augustus Before~EbookFREE.me~ I want to know what I need to do?"
This remark is not polite, but also reveals a hard line that can't be said-as a Byzantine envoy should have a kind of "arrogance", Murphys obviously played this well, after all, he now stands behind The Byzantine Empire, whose personality is easy-going, is not suitable for being displayed here in front of strangers in strange empire.
Prince Ozra had a thick beard, but his cheeks were abnormally thin. After listening to the translator's words, he raised his eyebrows and his eyes instantly changed slightly, but after a moment of stun, he immediately reacted and said Haha smiled and said: "My brother Ulysses still has some things to deal with, but I can lead you around the palace first-if there is no wrong guess, you are the Byzantine who is called the strongest Lord Murphy of the Great Warrior?"
"It's me, yes."
Murphy's answer was still with arrogance, but obviously he didn't mean to hold the shelf all the time. After letting the other party know his attitude, Murphy bluntly said: "I have plenty of time, if His Royal Highness is free , I am willing to follow you everywhere."
I'm afraid the next thing is more than just a visit?
