Chapter 361 What should be saved and what should not be saved
"Title Page Serial·White Town Chapter "Greed""
"In the royal capital of the Akka Kingdom, a supreme military meeting has just ended. The old prime minister of the kingdom rubbed his brows and felt exhausted both physically and mentally."
"I still can't be persuaded... The old prime minister looked in the direction of the king's palace and sighed with a wry smile. Since His Majesty made up his mind on the spot and decided to take the opportunity to send troops to the White Town, what else could he say, just...
The situation is not that simple. After all, the wealth is so attractive, and the platinum-lead mine has brought prosperity to the white town for hundreds of years. I am afraid that the surrounding countries will not give up this piece of fat easily..."
————————
Um?
Nuo Xia frowned, looked carefully, and then noticed that in the gap between the two super-large sea kings fighting, there was indeed a ship struggling to survive in the huge waves.
The shape and style are similar to those of navy warships, except that the symbol on the white sail is not a blue seagull scale, but five circles connected by crosses.
It is indeed a World Government ship.
"Do you want to save me?" Flying Squirrel asked hesitantly. He knew that his general was not very fond of people from the World Government.
"I will definitely save you."
Nuo Xia did not hesitate much and ordered, "They can't hold on for long, so drive over at full speed."
Who knows who are the people on that World Government ship? We haven’t met yet, so we can’t knock them all down with one stick.
"Yes, Lieutenant General."
…………
Boom!
Along with the dull crashing sound, the entire ship jolted violently back and forth, and the heart-wrenching sound of the ship's hull swaying continued to reach my ears, as if it would completely break apart in the next moment.
Roland VI, who was over sixty years old, felt his stomach was churning, and he almost vomited out everything he had eaten today and yesterday.
"Captain Wilson!"
The fat old man clung to the railing to prevent himself from being swept into the sea by the strong wind. He gritted his teeth and turned his head angrily and yelled:
"Hurry up and think of a solution! Bastard! If you keep going like this, my treasure will fall into the sea!"
You are about to lose your life, but you still only care about your treasure?
The person who was called Captain Wilson was a middle-aged man with a resolute face. He was also holding on to the railing. He sneered when he heard this, but did not respond. He turned around and asked his men:
"This ship can't hold it any longer. How is Xiu Zuo doing? Are you ready?"
"It'll be ready soon, Captain!"
Before his men could respond, an indistinct scream came from the howling wind at the stern of the ship. Wilson followed the sound and saw paper cranes flying from that side, soaring in the wind, and soon reached the wing.
Exhibits a size of two meters.
"Eh? This, this is..."
King Luolan VI's eyes widened, while Wilson breathed a sigh of relief and smiled proudly, "It's my deputy Xiu Zuo. That guy is an Origami Fruit user... Come up, His Majesty the King."
There are about twenty paper cranes in total, and each one can sit astride two people, which is more than enough to accommodate everyone on the ship. The rest can also be used to carry the treasures brought by Rooland VI from the country.
"Quick, help me up!"
King Luolan VI immediately issued the order, and with the help of several personal attendants, he boarded the paper crane with great difficulty.
Then he asked these attendants to take out large and small boxes of treasures from the cabin and pile them one by one on the empty paper cranes.
The wealth accumulated by the royal family over the past century is really astonishing. Two or three minutes have passed and all the members of his team have been transferred, but the treasure chest has not yet been moved.
Damn fat man, mother-in-law and mother-in-law.
Captain Wilson cursed secretly, looking at Xiu Zuo who was struggling to support himself with his hands, his face became increasingly pale, and he knew that the weight the Qianzhi Crane was carrying had reached the limit of his ability.
So he finally couldn't help it and urged: "Your Majesty the King, at this time, you have to throw away what should be thrown away. If you don't seize the time, we will all have to..."
"What a shame! I know this!"
Luo Lan VI glared at him fiercely, watching the cracks getting bigger and bigger, and finally gritted his teeth and waved his hands in pain: "Forget it, just move these last few boxes, and throw away the ones left in the cabin.
, get up here quickly!”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Several attendants were running back and forth on the broken deck in fear. After hearing this, they felt as if they were being pardoned. They hurriedly carried the box in their arms, climbed over the railing, and jumped onto the paper crane.
"Walk!"
Captain Wilson winked at Xiu Zuo, and as soon as he waved his hand, his vision suddenly went dark, and there seemed to be a huge black shadow above his head.
Snap!
There was a deafening loud noise, but it was two sea kings that were causing trouble not far away. One of the tails struck the nearby sea.
They were not coming towards the ship. The two super-large sea kings were fighting each other. From the beginning to the end, they never paid attention to these small ant-like things under them.
But just this aftermath is already a devastating disaster for the ants.
boom!
The hull of the ship was only slightly scraped, but it still burst into pieces under the huge impact. The huge waves set off instantly swept all the paper cranes floating beside the ship into the sea.
When the paper cranes touched the sea water, they lost their original activity. In an instant, they turned into puddles of soft origami paper, floating on the sea. The mountain-like treasure chests were overturned, and gold, silver, and silk were poured out like rain.
Falling into the sea.
"my darling!"
The hoarse screams of King Roolan VI came from the side, but Wilson had no time to pay attention. He grabbed a piece of wood and swam out of the sea. Before he could take a breath, the familiar black shadow enveloped him again.
He looked up in horror, just in time to see the giant tail covered with blue scales falling towards him again.
It's over, it's all over...
Wilson's face was pale and full of despair. Could it be that... he was going to be buried here today?
Boom!
Just then.
In an instant, dark clouds piled up in the night sky, thunder roared, and two white bolts of lightning pierced the sky, struck straight down, and landed on the heads of two super-large Neptune species under the shocked eyes of everyone.
Boom!
The thunder exploded, and the place where the two super-large sea kings were hit was instantly scorched black, and the scales rolled back and opened, revealing the fuzzy flesh and blood inside.
"roar!"
The two sea kings were in pain, and in a rage, they temporarily stopped fighting each other, and both turned their heads and looked to the southeast with their scarlet eyes.
The next moment.
A scene that shocked everyone happened.
The two huge beasts, which almost covered the sky, didn't know what they saw. Their bodies suddenly stiffened, and their originally ferocious faces revealed a look of anthropomorphic panic.
Then.
His body trembled, and at the same time he suddenly plunged into the sea, twisted his body wildly and ran away. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared without a trace on the sea under the moonlight.
Wow...
The whirlpool on the sea surface gradually subsided, and the thunderclouds in the night sky quickly dissipated.
Wilson recovered from his daze, looked to the southeast, and saw a white naval warship coming through the wind and waves.
"call……"
He suddenly seemed to realize something, he let out a long breath, and his heart fell to the ground.
It's the big guy from the navy who's arrived.
Saved.
…………
"Thank you Lieutenant General Nuoxia."
On the Thunder Eagle, Wilson wiped the water drops on his neck with a towel, and gratefully saluted the tall figure in front of him:
"If you hadn't come to the rescue, all my brothers and I would have fallen here."
"It's just a little effort."
Nuo Xia didn't care much, smiled, and looked at the middle-aged man with a resolute face in front of him and the white uniform he was wearing, "CP-0 person?"
"yes."
Wilson smiled bitterly and nodded, "I am Wilson, the team leader. I am responsible for taking the royal family from Beihai to the Holy Land. I thought it would be an easy job, but I didn't expect that my luck would be so bad..."
That's quite unlucky.
Nuo Xia was convinced that a four-thousand-meter-long super-large sea king was rare enough to begin with, but to see two of them fighting together was probably much lower than winning the lottery.
"You guys should have a good rest."
He said calmly, "When we leave the windless zone tomorrow, I will allocate a speedboat to you. Then you can go to the Holy Land by yourself."
The cp-0 captain with a resolute face hurriedly thanked him and emphasized that when he returned to the Holy Land, he would definitely report it to his superiors and apply for credit for Nuo Xia. The team members next to him also did the same.
Naturally, Nuo Xia didn't care about this small feat and smiled without saying anything.
He looked at the thin man next to him again. He noticed the origami fruit ability that this guy showed just now. His ability was quite interesting, but...
This face seems a bit familiar?
"Don't you remember me?"
The thin man looked over at him and was a little excited, "You already saved me once more than two years ago, on Hal Island..."
Hal's Island?
Nuo Xia suddenly realized.
Oh, it turns out that this guy is the unlucky guy who was caught by Katakuri during the battle for the historical text monument and had to call him for help.
"Weren't you also the squad leader before?"
Nuo Xia's eyes were a little narrow, "Why have you become deputy now and been demoted?"
"It's natural to be punished if you don't do things well." Xiu Zuo scratched his head in embarrassment, "It's all thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't just be demoted, but I'm afraid I'd have to go to jail for a few years..."
After several years, he is still very grateful to Nuo Xia. In the original historical text stone tablet incident, if the latter had not killed him in time and defeated all the pirates on the island with thunderous means, he and all his brothers would have been killed.
Died at the hands of the Big Mom Pirates.
Nuo Xia smiled, said nothing, turned and left.
The CP-0 guy is used to being aloof and aloof. Originally, he was prepared. If these guys boarded the Thunder Eagle and didn't know how to recognize each other, and still put on airs with their nostrils turned upward, he would definitely not be polite.
Just throw them all off the boat and let them die.
But now it seems.
Except for Xiu Zuo who was convinced by him two years ago, the rest of the team members, especially Captain Wilson, are all grateful men.
It's good, it's not in vain.
However.
People with CP-0 are surprisingly understanding, but there are always people who still can't understand their own situation.
for example……
"What! Not even a single treasure chest has been fished out? What are you doing for food!"
Just when Nuo Xia stepped out of the room and was about to go back to his room to rest, an old and sharp howl came from the next door room: "Do you know how much all the treasures of this king are worth in total?"
"Even if you add up all your lives, it's still not worth one-tenth of the value! Understand! Bastard! Waste! It's all waste!"
"What on earth do you marines do for a living! Just wait! Let's see how I report you wastes to the World Government after I arrive at the Holy Land!"
Where did cerebral palsy come from?
Nuo Xia frowned and turned to look at the CP-0 person.
Wilson and Xiu Zuo both spread their hands and smiled bitterly.
Obviously, they both have been tortured for a long time along the way.
…
Squeak.
The door was pushed open, and Nuo Xia stepped into the next room. He saw a fat old man in luxurious clothes, his face flushed with anger, pointing at the sailors at the door and scolding them.
Flying Squirrel was among them, commanding the captain's medical soldiers to bandage these members of the royal family. After hearing this, he rubbed his eyebrows with a headache and pretended not to hear.
At this moment, I heard footsteps coming from behind. I turned around and saw that it was Nuo Xia. I quickly stopped what I was doing and came to Nuo Xia.
"What's going on?" Nuo Xia looked at him.
"It's not like he lost his treasure box and took it out on us." The flying squirrel smiled bitterly, "I've been scolding him for almost ten minutes. I tried to persuade him for a long time, but it was of no use at all. He could only shirk the responsibility because I couldn't take it.
…”
"Are you the top officer of this warship?"
“Just in time!”
King Luolan VI also saw Nuo Xia, stood up suddenly, interrupted the flying squirrel, pointed at Nuo Xia's nose angrily and asked:
"After all, he is a lieutenant general. He can always make decisions. Let's talk about it! How on earth are you navy going to compensate me?"
————————
ps: You may have some misunderstandings. In case some book friends can't wait, let me tell you here in advance.
The White Town chapter is not a small plot like the previous Rob Luqi chapter, but an important turning point in my outline leading to the last volume. There is a lot of grounding to be done, and the supporting characters who appear will have follow-up effects. However, if the update is slow,
It seems that the plot is advancing too slowly, which is indeed not very good. I will increase the amount of updates in the next few days.
