The three warships gradually sank, and the warriors of the Hailong Gang were forced to abandon the ship. They released a small lifeboat, and then used their internal power to quickly escape.
Fan Rulong and others immediately pursued the victory and controlled the mysterious cannon to bombard the sea area.
A huge water column instantly burst out from the sea, and strong waves surged in all directions. Screams, falling water and angry roars were mixed together.
"Stop!" Du Ning ordered to stop.
After Fan Rulong and others heard this, they ordered the Xuanji Cannon to stop bombing the Hailong Gang warriors.
When the warriors of the Hailong Gang saw that the sound of cannons had stopped, they were all ecstatic. They dispersed into a group of frightened birds and fled quickly in the lifeboats, completely defeated.
Chen Mingwang said to Du Ning: "Du Jun, these pirates do all kinds of evil in the endless sea. Even if we don't provoke them, they come to rob and kill our ships. These people are a scourge after all. Why do you want to let them go?
Where is the way out?"
Du Ning said with a smile: "If we kill them all, no one will inform the headquarters of the Hailong Gang to promote the power of our human scholars."
"So that's how it is, you knock on the mountain to scare the tigers, so that they can use the rat weapon." Chen Mingwang suddenly realized.
Du Ning looked at the pirates fleeing in the distance, and suddenly said in a loud voice: "Fellow warriors of the Hailong Gang, please go back and tell your bosses that we are scholars from the Holy Forest Continent. Let us meet again next time.
If we get to you, your whole army will be wiped out without any chance of return."
"If you are not convinced, you can go to the Holy Forest Continent to seek revenge from the human race at any time. The human race in the Holy Forest Continent has millions of warships waiting to be ready, and we can destroy your Sea Dragon Gang in a snap!"
His voice was conveyed far away through the power of talent, and almost every escaping pirate heard it clearly, and all of them turned pale and trembled with fear in an instant.
Just one ordinary sea-going ship was able to defeat the three warships of their Hailong Gang.
It is conceivable how terrifying the Holy Forest Continent will be once it dispatches large-scale warships, enough to dominate the endless sea.
"Just wait for me. Our Hailong Gang will never let you so-called scholars go. We will definitely take revenge!"
"We have recorded this hatred. Today's shame will be repaid tenfold by our Hailong Gang in the future!"
Many warriors from the Hailong Gang responded. They were all furious and unwilling to be defeated by an inconspicuous ship.
"Then we welcome you to come for revenge at any time."
Du Ning expressed his deep contempt for these pirates in an extremely disdainful tone.
When the warriors of the Hailong Gang heard Du Ning's confident tone, their expressions became uglier.
Du Ning said to Chen Mingwang: "Ignore them, let's continue to the Seven Islands Sea Country."
"Yes."
Chen Mingwang handed over to Du Ning, then quickly returned to the cockpit and continued to drive the ship toward the Seven Islands Sea Country.
After seeing the ship go away, the warriors of the Hailong Gang breathed a sigh of relief one by one.
"What are these guys from the Holy Forest Continent doing in the sea if they don't stay well on land?"
"We are really blind. If we had known that there were such powerful weapons on the ships in the Holy Forest Continent, we would not have dared to provoke them easily. Now that the ships are gone and hundreds of brothers have been killed, how can we explain to the leaders when we return?
”
"This matter is too strange. Let's go back and report this matter to everyone in charge and tell them that the situation has changed."
"Let's go!"
The people from the Hailong Gang found the right direction and headed to the other side of the sea.
…………
Another day has passed.
The ships from the Holy Forest Continent entered the territory of the Seven Island Sea Kingdom.
Looking into the distance, you can see a huge island, which is one of the seven islands in the sea.
A flag with the word "Holy Courtyard" written on it floats on the ship, allowing people from the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom to tell at a glance that they are human scholars from the Holy Forest Continent.
A group of small warships sailed ahead, and a group of people in armor stood on the deck. Everyone had a serious expression and cast a very wary look.
Checkpoints have been set up outside the island. Once a suspicious ship is found approaching, the customs will be notified immediately to dispatch warships.
Du Ning and others walked out of the cabin and looked at the scholar opposite.
On the warship at the front, there was a Confucian and Taoist scholar who came out of the queue. He stretched out his hand forward and said in a loud voice: "Please stop the ships in front of me. I am Zhang Zewen, the customs general of the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom.
Responsible for the maritime border defense of the seven-island maritime country, please stop and accept our review."
The ship immediately stopped and kept a certain distance from the warship on the opposite side.
Du Ning cupped his hands and said: "It turns out to be General Zhang. We are human scholars from the Holy Forest Continent. We are sent as envoys to the Seven Islands Sea Country under the orders of the Holy Academy. You should be able to see the unique flag of the Holy Academy on our ships.
”
Zhang Zewen said without changing his expression: "Having said that, I am responsible for the border defense of the seven-island sea country and have responsibilities. How can I conclude that you are from the Holy Forest Continent with just a flag? Please also ask.
Please bring out the evidence from the Holy Court to prove your identity, otherwise we will regard you as intruders, but don’t blame us for being rude to you."
Du Ning's face changed slightly, and then he took out an official seal from Qiankun in his sleeve, "This is the great seal of the Holy Academy. It can prove the identity of our human race in the Holy Forest Continent. Please check it with General Zhang."
After saying that, he threw it out and used his talent to control it into Zhang Zewen's hands.
Zhang Zewen held the Great Seal of the Holy Academy in his hand. He first checked the inscriptions on the great seal, and then poured his own talent into it. A faint light suddenly bloomed, which resonated with his talent and power.
"Yes, this is indeed a cultural treasure of the Holy Court. It seems that you are indeed people sent by the Holy Court."
After Zhang Zewen finished speaking, everyone else's expressions relaxed and they suddenly lost their guard.
"Please also show your identity documents." Zhang Zewen said again.
"No problem."
Du Ning nodded lightly, and then, together with many scholars, they used their talent to send their identity documents to Zhang Zewen for inspection.
Zhang Zewen carefully checked everyone's identity information, and the scholars around him were also helping to check, for fear that there would be any omissions.
After some inspections, it was finally determined that Du Ning and others were indeed scholars from the Holy Forest Continent.
"Wait! I read that right!"
Zhang Zewen suddenly changed his expression, let out an incredible exclamation, looked at Du Ning, and asked: "You... are you a human gentleman?"
"Exactly."
Du Ning nodded lightly. Since Wenjun has a special status, relevant information will be written into his identity document for backup.
"How is that possible?"
Zhang Zewen was really surprised. You must know that "Wenjun" is the highest canonization under the semi-saint. Throughout the ages, those who can be canonized as Wenjun are all geniuses, and at least they must be Confucian and Taoist scholars or great scholars.
.
But Du Ning was only a Confucian, Taoist, and Imperial scholar, and was canonized as a Wenjun by the Holy Court. How could Zhang Zewen not be surprised?
"Did the Holy Court lower the conditions for Wenjun's canonization?"
Zhang Zewen couldn't help but guess this, but his attitude towards Du Ning immediately became more respectful. He hurriedly bowed to Du Ning and said, "It turns out that it's Lord Yunqi who is here. Many of my subordinates have been rude, so please forgive me."
"I met Wenjun."
The scholars on other warships saluted one after another, but a few scholars suddenly showed contempt and started whispering.
"The Sacred Forest Continent is indeed far worse than before. A mere Hanlin can be the Wenjun of the human race. If it were me, wouldn't it be possible for me to be Wenzong?" A Jinshi said with disdain.
"I have always thought that all the scholars sent by the Holy Academy are the best among the human race. When I see them today, I think even the Holy Academy is worthy of its name!"
"That's why the Holy Academy keeps sending scholars to our Seven Islands Sea Country to establish diplomatic relations. It's just because we hope that our Seven Islands Sea Country can take care of them."
Although the scholar opposite spoke softly, it could not be hidden from the ears of the many scholars here, and all of them showed very unnatural expressions.
Zhang Zewen returned everyone's identity documents and the seal of the Holy Academy, then he raised his hands to everyone and said: "Welcome all literary friends from the Holy Forest Continent to the Seven Islands Sea Country. Please follow our instructions to land." p>
"Then I'll have a hard time." Du Ning politely handed over.
Subsequently, Chen Mingwang drove the ship and slowly landed ashore under the instructions of the other party.
After the ship docked, Du Ning led everyone off the ship. In addition to many scholars, there were also dozens of elite soldiers sent by the Holy Academy.
Zhang Zewen glanced at Chen Mingwang and said slowly: "Your ship needs someone to take care of and manage it. This bachelor does not need to accompany you to the palace of our country. Please rest assured that our court will be responsible for your three meals a day and ensure that you
personal safety."
Everyone's expressions changed slightly. The people from the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom were indeed very vigilant. They clearly wanted to separate Chen Mingwang, Du Ning and others on purpose.
They are not afraid of Hanlin and Jinshi, but they are very afraid of academicians.
If the Grand Scholar is allowed to follow the king of the Seven Islands Sea Country, there is a risk for the Seven Islands Sea Country to attract a wolf into the house. After all, the Seven Islands Sea Country does not have a great scholar in charge, and any great scholar is capable enough to assassinate the king. They
Have to guard against it.
However, the Confucian and Taoist scholars and Hanlin officials did not have such worries. If Du Ning and others dared to assassinate the monarch, they would have enough strength and confidence to kill Du Ning and others with a thunderbolt.
Everyone looked at Du Ning. If Du Ning refused Zhang Zewen's conditions, Zhang Zewen and others would be suspicious. Du Ning and others might be sent away immediately, and the purpose of their trip would be in vain. Du Ning analyzed in his mind that although the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom was wary of them, they were of the same human race after all, and they were here on behalf of the Holy Academy. As long as everyone cooperated, the Seven Islands Sea Kingdom would not embarrass them. Vote for recommendation
