Parallel Army - The Sound of Turning Tide Chapter 12 The First Boat in Life
Alexander thought for a while, if Ronan's behavior was to destroy the marriage, such as assassinating the princess or something else, the Sea Clan would really provoke a war. No matter what his purpose was at that time, the chaotic situation would definitely make the evil god
Advent becomes easier.
Even if we don’t know why Ronan traveled all the way to the Bakato Kingdom, he must have some purpose, especially since the two points in time are so close. From this, it can be inferred that Bishop Ronan has something that must be done at the seaside.
Considering the ruins of the two previous evil gods, dreams, body modifications and the sea itself may be the characteristics of the evil god who corrupted Bishop Ronan.
The guide felt that the money was not very secure and did not show you how to get around. He also thought that you might be interested in the wedding, so he went to ask about it carefully.
The wedding of Duke Lelan and Princess Bai Ni should be held on the first day of the following lush moon. You must leave early, otherwise the wedding will be almost ready when you arrive. Of course, if you plan to wait for this young man to wake up, you can stay for a while
Two days is not a problem.
In the end, Alexander had a good night's rest, but the young man was still awake at dawn the next day. Alexander discussed with Fageni and Xizi: "What do you think? I think the sooner we leave, the better, and the later we leave, the better.
Let’s take this man with us. I guess the person who destroyed their village is not a good person. It’s not good for him to wake up and run to die alone.”
"I think it's okay. This kid might become a good player in our team." Fageni had the idea of recruiting a disciple.
"I think so. We saved him after all, and it's hard on our conscience to leave him alone here." Heath felt that the child was quite pitiful.
"So, do you want to take on the mission that comes along the way? I think it's better not to take it and just go there." Alexander was a little worried because the cost would be too high.
"I still have some money, which should keep us from starving to death." Fageni scratched his head. "If the cultist takes action during the few days of delay, it won't be worth it."
"Well, I have the same idea. Then get ready to leave." Alexander stood up. "First go buy the tickets and prepare to leave, and then go back to the hospital to carry the person away. Fagni, you stay here and watch the person first, and we finish buying it.
The tickets will be returned.”
"Well, go ahead." Fageni nodded.
"Bye bye Fageni, we will be back soon." Hitz followed out, still feeling a little abnormal in his head.
After completing these things, the three of them spent some time buying spare medicines and necessary supplies, and set off in the afternoon with the still unconscious young man.
Alexander, Heath and Fageni took turns looking after the boy, waiting for him to wake up.
Three days later, when the carriage climbed over the last hill, the three of them finally saw the vast, azure sea described in Sophia's books.
Wave after wave kept hitting the rocks at the foot of the mountain, making a huge noise, and finally turned into white foam and returned to the sea.
Looking from a distance, a jet-black, streamlined, sharp-angled steam warship was parked beside a port that was almost as big as a small town, making the dozens of wooden boats next to it lose their original visual impact.
"Wow." Alexander exclaimed.
"It's very shocking." Fageni took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it. He knew that he would see this kind of scene often in the past few days.
"So handsome!" Heath couldn't think of any good adjectives for a moment, but she herself wasn't as elegant as the elves described by the bards.
Alexander changed her position and sat next to the carriage window and poked her head out. She looked at the sea and sighed with no meaning: "Alas... I'm not very good at swimming. I hope there won't be a fight."
When the three of them got off the carriage and were about to line up to buy tickets, they again heard the conversations of travelers or businessmen around them. In addition to goods and weddings, there were other things.
Alexander carried the young man on his back and silently listened to what the people around him were talking about. Fageni and Hitz, who were currently a little bored, also listened intently to their discussion.
Alexander heard a story from a female magician mercenary who also went to the wedding and was gossiping. There was a girl in a nearby fishing village who started to grow scales on her body for some reason. The villagers thought she had provoked something like a sea monster.
The local Holy God Church failed to purify the monster. It was not a curse or disease. Later, the woman died at a young age.
"It sounds like things haven't been peaceful with the Sea Tribe recently... I hope nothing big happens." Alexander said nonsense that he didn't believe and continued to move forward, preparing to go through the boarding procedures.
Fageni heard a fisherman from Yajiao Town say that the fish stocks have not been normal recently. This time the warmer current brought too many fish. He bumped into the fishing boat, and some of them were killed. But he still saved enough.
Qian wanted to go to the wedding. He whispered this rumor to Alexander, and then continued to listen quietly.
Hitz heard a story about a gray orb that had recently been sold for a huge price. It was said that there was a handsome alchemist who especially liked to kidnap little boys, and then make the boy into a medicinal soup and drink it to keep himself young.
The alchemist was eventually arrested by the garrison, and the alchemy tools he refined with expensive materials that could keep him young were auctioned off. In the end, the Bakato royal family paid a high price of fifteen thousand linseys as the mermaid.
I bought it as a meeting gift for the princess. However, the story is not very bloody. The abominable alchemist only smelted copper and liked men. In fact, he just imprisoned those boys, and these boys were not harmed "physically".
How true are these stories that have been passed down, but they are by no means groundless.
The boat fare was fifty paise per person. Fagenius paid her share of the money and the child's money, and then took over the child from Alexander's back. Perhaps because Alexander was a woman, she was not questioned.
Just like that, we boarded a steam battleship bound for the port town of Yajiao Mountain and headed for Copenhagen. This steam battleship was commercially used by the port town to supplement daily expenses.
Fageni brought the unconscious young man into the room. After sailing the ship, he would probably need to take turns to take care of him, but even if he didn't take care of him, he would only go to the deck to look at the sea.
Alexander decided to take turns taking care of her, every eight hours. Just look at the sea, since there was nothing else to do anyway.
It was just before noon. Heath was the first to take care of the room, while Fageni and Alexander went to the deck to relax and enjoy the breeze.
There were several jewelry merchants talking on the deck, and their female companions were comparing their jewelry with each other. In addition, there were two marines to prevent accidents. They were wearing normal armor, and their weapons were bayonets and steam.
rifle.
Alexander had no interest in jewelry, but since there was no one else around to chat with, it didn't hurt to listen to what they were saying.
"Recently, shipping by sea has become increasingly difficult."
"Isn't it?"
"Brother Stork, I remember that you collected a batch of good goods. You will open our eyes when we get to Xuanbiao City."
"sure."
After hearing a few words, Fageni walked towards the soldiers with a curious attitude and tried to chat with them about the weapons in their hands.
Perhaps out of their duty to introduce the journey to the passengers, the navy soldiers reluctantly told Fageni that this was their new weapon. Although it was very powerful, it also required long-term practice, and they did not say much, which would violate military discipline.
By the way, he told Fageni that there would be seafood barbecue sold in the cabin restaurant in the evening, probably out of the idea of sending him away.
On the other side of the bed in the single room, the young man woke up and vomited, probably because the ship's body was shaking more periodically than the carriage.
Even so, all he vomited was medicinal juice and gastric juice. After all, the young man had not eaten anything in the past two days. The gray-haired young man vomited the first mouthful from lying on his side to turning over and half-sitting and vomiting loudly, and then to
Kneeling on the floor and retching.
"Ah, you're awake." Hitz patted his back soothingly. "Are you okay? Are you seasick?"
"Everyone in the village blames me for being too weak, wuwuwu..." The boy's voice was hoarse, and there was still dirty vomit on the corner of his mouth. Tears of heavy class fell down from his eyes that were dull.
.
"...It doesn't matter, it's not your fault." Hitz wanted to comfort the young man in front of him as much as possible. "You have been in a coma for two days now. Your body is very weak. Let's take a rest first."
"If I had been braver, maybe Sissi wouldn't have been captured. It's all my fault. I, I want to save her." The young man didn't listen to Hitz's advice. He stood up and wanted to run out, but because of lack of physical strength,
And when he fell to the ground, vomit and tears also rubbed on his body.
Then the young man hammered the floor hard, "God, why are you doing this to me... Damn Black Eyes, I'm going to kill you all!" Because the distance was not too far, the two mercenaries with sensitive hearing on the deck also
I heard this noise.
"Huh?" Alexander glanced at Fageni and ran back to the room. "Finally woke up."
"Thank you." Fageni looked back at the cabin, said goodbye to the soldiers and got off the cabin.
