Chapter 459: Alliance (Part 1)
The sea waves rippled gently, and a warship was advancing on the sea.
The golden sunlight shines on the sea surface, and the crisp and pleasant sound of seabirds passes through everyone's ears. The blue sea surface is so similar to the color of the sky. From a distance, it seems to be the same color as the water and sky.
"The scenery is good!" Because I heard that Avesie had liked islands, Romon turned around and asked softly.
At this time, the two of them and some sailors had left Treasure Island and were about to rush to the island that was about to be given to Earl Xiusenya. As the warship continued to advance, the island in front had gradually expanded from a small black dot into a beautiful island.
"Well, the sea is beautiful, and the island in front seems to be even more beautiful." Avesy said sincerely in admiration.
She belongs to nature. The clear sea breeze blew, which made her narrow her eyes comfortably. This pure natural feeling made her intoxicated. A long time ago, because of this, she became a druid and a messenger of the interconnectedness with nature.
Time passed quickly, and a short distance from the sea, with the full strength of the warship, he was soon reached his destination.
The sun gradually rose from the distance to the top of their heads, and the water ripples brought by the warships were also trembling slightly, and then gradually drifted to the distance.
"The island has arrived, oh, my deal with you will be carried out on Treasure Island in the future. In this way, many problems can be avoided." Seeing that Avesy's eyes were a little erratic, as if he was thinking about something, Romon gently reminded him.
This time I came here, I gave ten tons of grain to Avesie happily.
Ten tons are not a lot, but it is a starting point. Moreover, due to the magic disaster, food is very precious, and many territories are still short of food!
"Well? Oh, okay, let's go and take a look." Seeing that the island was already appearing in front of you, Avesy said quickly.
Because of a light rain before, as soon as the sun rose completely, the sea surface soon rose, and everything in the distance became blurry, giving people a feeling of whiteness.
The fog moistened their hair. Because it was already late autumn, a cool feeling was slightly cold, and it penetrated from their bodies.
Fortunately, as a druid of notable levels, Romon and Avesi would not be afraid of this cold.
"There seems to be a reef next to the island, let's take a boat to go there." Seeing the battleship stopping a distance from the island, Romon suggested.
"Yeah, okay." Avesey naturally agreed. The two of them, plus three attendants, became the first group of people to land on the warship.
"It should be possible to touch the land soon!" The attendant fluctuated gently, and the others looked around vigilantly.
A group of soldiers were stationed on this island, but they heard that there was a forest on this island with ferocious monsters inside. As soon as these people approached the island, they became alert.
Soon, violent shaking came with a crisp sound of impact.
What they touched was land, and they had already touched the edge of the island, so the attendants were responsible for gently leaning over the boat. Romon and Avessi were preparing to get off the boat.
Romon jumped off the boat first, and Avessi and several other servants stepped onto the land. The slight shaking feeling was the feeling after getting off the boat, and it felt like his body was still shaking.
"What's the name of this island?" Standing on the edge of the island and looking at the island, Avesy said curiously. Although the island is not very big, it is also very good.
"It was originally Blue Tu Island, but this is the name given by the pirate. I plan to give it to someone else. The name should be raised by its future owner." Romon said with a smile.
"Is there the forest with monsters inside?" Avesi glanced around, his eyes very strange.
"Yes, I heard that there are many monsters inside. Is there anything strange?" Romon asked.
"This place... is very good..." Avesy sighed in his heart.
In fact, this island is more suitable for elves than the accommodation provided by Wadengwen for their ethnic group. Unfortunately, now they no longer have the chance.
"Oh, yes, it's really good here." I didn't quite understand why Avesie's expression was a little sad. Seeing that the other party was unwilling to say more, Romon was very considerate and did not continue to ask.
"Let's set up a tent here first. I think that honorable guest will come soon." Romon ordered the left and right to start setting up a tent as a temporary place to settle down.
After the tent was completed, Romon took Avesia and walked around the neighborhood a little, but he was still very satisfied. The plants here are growing well, there is plenty of fresh water and the place is spacious. I believe that the guest will definitely like it.
"Well, look, there is a freshwater lake here." Romon pushed aside the large shrubs, and there was a clearing in it. There was a small lake composed of underground springs in the center of the clearing. He walked in, soaked his fingers and put it in his mouth to taste it, and nodded with satisfaction. "The water quality is very good and sweet."
Just as they were patrolling around, a servant suddenly came to report: "Sir, the guest has arrived."
"Yeah, okay, I get it." Romon nodded, and then said to Avesy on the side, "Let's go."
"No, Romon, go and greet the guests, I'll observe the plants here." Avessi chose to stay very cleverly.
"Well, then okay, I'll leave two people to protect you." As he said that, he left two servants without any explanation and walked away.
On the other side, the Earl of Xiusenya, with the companion of the servant, came to the island. As soon as he got ashore, he carefully observed the environment on the island, and the more he looked, the more he was satisfied.
"Sir, please go to the tent to rest first, my lord will come back soon." The person in charge of greeting them was a servant. The man bowed to him very respectfully and explained.
"When the tent was right in front of him, the prince was not polite. Under the leadership of the attendant, he walked in with several close servants, while the other attendants stood outside the tent and did their own protection work.
Someone served tea and fruit. Although Earl Xiusenya accepted it with a smile, he could tell from the situation he kept looking towards the entrance of the tent that he was still a little anxious.
After a while, someone finally walked in from outside.
"Sir, you have been waiting for a long time." The person who came in was Romon. As soon as he came in, he smiled and bowed to Earl Xiusenya.
"It's okay, I just arrived, Baron Tetasha, what you said in the letter..." the prince asked impatiently.
"Sir, let's talk while walking." Romon said with a smile.
"Okay." The prince also wanted to go and see other parts of the island.
So, the two of them walked in front, and several servants followed them in a distance to protect their safety.
However, with Romon alone, he could easily solve any danger when encountering him. When he walked with him, the prince was quite relaxed.
Romon took the prince to visit some of the freshwater places he had just seen, where there were simple pirate houses. After seeing it, he stopped and said, "Sir, this island is good, it is a very good port, and it has reclaimed farmland. If it can be developed effectively, then this territory can be a landmark."
Speaking of this, Romon paused for a moment and saw the guest next to him listening carefully. He continued, "You also know that any victory is hard-won, especially in the previous battle, many of my subordinates died. I want to properly arrange their relatives and give their comrades better treatment..."
"So, I want to make a deal with you and fight with the pirates was yesterday. There was no leakage. You can go out to sea. Then I and you announced at the same time that the victory of this war was completed by you and me, so you can obtain this island with justification."
"At the cost, my legal ownership of Treasure Island and the title of Viscount are indispensable. Of course, the ownership of the Fifth Fleet must also be clarified!"
Now that things have come, Romon no longer hides things, but tells the noble guest what he wants with a clear attitude.
Until now, Romon also knew that the count was a member of the royal family.
"What? Let me help you become a viscount?" The prince looked at Romon in surprise, but he didn't expect that he would make a request to him directly.
However, there was no such thing as a waste of pie in the sky. The other party said the conditions, but he calmed down.
"You make me think about it." The prince said.
After all, although the span from the baron to the viscount is not large, it is often a gap that many baron-level nobles cannot cross in their entire lives.
However, he thought again that with Romon's youthful age and the strength he already possessed, it would be a matter of time before he could get promoted to Viscount. The prince thought about it and felt that it would not be difficult to help Romon and get him into this circle a few years earlier.
Just as he was thinking, Romon, who was beside him suddenly spoke: "Sir, in fact, there is another reason why I made this request to you."
"Oh?" The prince looked over.
"Because, in the next few years, I will attack the ninth level druid and may spend more time practicing, so I have to ask you for my respect, contribution, and contacts with Your Majesty..." Romon intentionally or unintentionally told me that he was already an eighth level druid.
Of course, he was already a level nine druid at this time, but at his age, becoming a level eight druid at this time was already a genius, and he didn't want to push himself higher.
"What, you are already an eighth-level druid?" Even so, the prince was shocked. Such a young nobleman and a genius in the druid realm. Such a person may...
The prince was a little hesitant before, but at this time, he had made up his mind to help Romon.
After thinking a little, the prince spoke, "Okay, we have reached this agreement and swear with our respective gods!"
"Okay, swear to God, clap your hands to form an alliance, and make an agreement!" Romon stretched out his hand.
Without any hesitation, the prince stretched out one hand, and his hands hit the air with a crisp sound.
