The sun is like fire, and the fire umbrella is spread high.
A total of seven tall warships stood on the sea, rising and falling with the waves.
The citizens of Stormwind City have never seen such a tall warship. It is a full two hundred paces long. The hull is painted black, which is daunting. The majestic and majestic silhouette is like a giant beast running rampant on the sea. Even the storm can crush it.
.
In front of these battleships, both the Blolis and the White Gull Queen looked a bit petty.
On the seven warships, there were numerous swords and sailors wearing iron armor in orderly manner. They were furling the sails, lowering the anchors, and anchoring off Hope Island.
This is the first naval fleet of the Kingdom of Pontos, the pride of the navy.
Shiloh licked his lips and smiled: "Connor, Rowan, now I know how backward our fleet is. If we can also get such a fleet, wouldn't we be able to dominate the Gulf Stream Island Chain?
?”
"Your Highness, these battleships are extremely precious and belong to military secrets. They cannot be handed over to pioneering nobles like us."
Connor poured cold water on the side bluntly. Shiloh rolled his eyes and stared at the leading battleship with envy.
This battleship is as high as a 4-story building and has 24 cannons on each side of the hull.
These cannons are military supplies specially signed by the Kingdom of Pontos and the Free Federation and are much more powerful than the cannons seen on the pirate ship last time.
With a volley of 24 cannons, even the legendary creatures that are arrogant in the deep sea will be killed instantly.
The navy on the ship is not comparable to the sailors under Rowan. These navy have extremely high military quality and strong combat effectiveness. With strong ships, sharp guns and elite soldiers, the combat effectiveness they can exert must be astonishing and terrifying.
In the distance, countless small boats were released from the battleship. Shiloh exhaled and said, "Let's go and greet the envoys from the kingdom."
He led his two generals - Connor and Rowan on one side behind him - and walked slowly to the dock, waiting for the densely packed boats to approach.
After a new round of military expansion, the Storm Battalion now has nearly 300 people. Everyone has neatly dressed their equipment. The knights' leather armor has been polished with grease to shine. Mahmoud and his desert mercenaries are all dressed in
Dressed in smart clothes and with cold eyes, even Bullock and several of his barbarian brothers - with bulging muscles all over their bodies and criss-crossed muscles on their faces - stood with arms folded, posing like a muscular man.
The most attractive thing is the new system soldiers.
The armored guards are all 2 meters tall, and each one is extremely strong, like a steel city wall, indestructible;
The sword and shield soldiers, spearmen, and archers looked solemn and formed three queues.
The armor of these system soldiers is all uniform leather armor. Maybe because they are still junior soldiers, they are not luxurious, but their aura makes them condense into a whole, even more like soldiers than knights.
Rowan's sailors no longer need to shoulder the responsibilities of soldiers at this time. They were assigned to five warships belonging to Hope Island. They looked at the navy from Pontos with envy, but they also knew that compared with the navy,
After all, there is actually no difference between sailors and pirates.
As the boat gradually approached, Shiloh rubbed his face and put on a sincere smile. Finally, in full view of everyone, a team of navy lined up and boarded the pier.
Everyone in this navy team wore light armor, long swords and throwing spears, standard navy uniforms. Once on the dock, they immediately divided into two teams and formed a queue from both sides of the dock to stand guard.
Only then did the real owner slowly walk out of the boat.
This was a middle-aged man with a gloomy look, and his body was so thin that Shiloh felt that if he walked a little louder, his waist would be broken.
He was wearing a fitted purple tuxedo, looking elegant and gorgeous.
Around his neck was a pure white Krabat—a ruffled collar that played the same role as a tie in Shiloh's mind.
The lower body is wearing tight pants called Hodes, and a pair of brightly polished rabbit hunting boots make a clanging sound when stepped on the wooden board of the pier.
The most unforgettable thing was his pale face, which looked like a corpse, and his lips were smeared with dark red lipstick, which was quite scary.
"Your Highness, he is Baron Luther of the Jabbar family. His father, Earl Charles, is one of the ministers in charge of the Finance Department and has considerable power."
Connor reminded softly.
Shiloh nodded and greeted him with a smile.
"Welcome to my territory, Your Excellency Baron, welcome to Hope Island."
Baron Luther looked arrogant. His family was considered a powerful noble in the Kingdom of Pontos. Although Hilo was the prince, he lost the favor of the emperor and was demoted here. His status was not as good as before.
Luther naturally would not feel honored that Hero had to greet him in person, and even felt a little unimpressed.
A down-and-out prince has to ask for orders even to return to the royal capital, which shows how much he has fallen out of favor.
If it had not been His Majesty Rody's birthday this time, Luther would not have been willing to drift at sea for several days and come to such a deserted island.
Although he was dissatisfied, he was a nobleman and could not express his emotions or anger. Luther immediately bowed gracefully and said: "Dear His Royal Highness Shiloh, thank you for welcoming me, the loyal servant of the royal family, Luther Jabbar."
I am specially here to escort Prince Hilo back to the royal capital to attend His Majesty’s birthday.”
Although Luther's etiquette was perfect, Shiloh still keenly noticed a hint of disdain in Luther's eyes. The smile on his face did not diminish, as if he did not notice anything wrong, and said: "Your Majesty, Baron, please do your best."
Che Dunzhou came here specially, and I prepared a sumptuous banquet. Stormwind City tonight will become different because of your arrival."
The two nobles exchanged hypocritical politeness and led everyone towards Stormwind City. Along the way, Luther kept praising Shiloh for his outstanding ability. He had built Stormwind City to such an extent in just a few months. What a flattery.
One string after another.
Shiloh lived for more than twenty years in his previous life, so he naturally knew that this kind of nonsense could not be believed, so he also adhered to the principle of speaking nonsense to people and telling ghosts to ghosts, praising Baron Luther for his achievements and fame.
The Jabbar family is full of talents.
Along the way, Shiloh noticed that Baron Luther would not take a few steps before a knight handed him a silk handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his forehead. There was even a servant who changed his clothes for him in the middle of the journey.
Shiloh rolled his eyes.
You know the weather is hot so you can’t wear less clothes!
Regardless of whether Shiloh was a little dissatisfied or not, even the soldiers who escorted them all the way were so excited that goosebumps broke out all over their bodies when they saw what Baron Luther was doing.
Is this what the life of a noble is like?
It’s really such a waste, so useless!
There are many topics to talk about on the way, not only the story of Shiloh's first arrival on Hope Island, but also the various battles that took place when Stormwind City was established... Luther is worthy of being a child of a noble family, and he knows the art of communication very well.
After asking, he listened patiently. Every raised eyebrow and every movement echoed Shiloh's words.
This kind of behavior can be regarded as a kind of knowledge, and it can easily make the other party have a good impression of you during communication.
However, Shiloh is not a rookie either. He has heard too many compliments when he was a teacher, so he can naturally tell whether a person is sincerely complimenting him or just being hypocritical. Therefore, even if he tells about his "family history", he is very smart to conceal it.
