- Seeing that the other party did not dare to leave, the soldier Hewitt put away his one-handed sword.
"Just wait, our captain will come to check on you later. If you really know each other, I won't stop you again."
"Okay, thank you." I didn't want to force my way in, and it wasn't too late, so I took this moment to observe this small fish village.
Before the arrival of the Third Knights, there were only twenty or thirty households and about a hundred people here. In the past, except for some small-scale fishing grounds, there were almost no other businesses here. Villagers who want to exchange something have only two choices. Either spend a few days to buy and sell in Saiweibo Gate City, or they can't exchange with the pirates. They could have made a lot of money by going to the city to trade, but after taking into account freight and labor, the fishermen couldn't make much. And when dealing with pirates, let alone money, it's basically barter. Pirates needed accommodation and food, which they would exchange for looted items, but few fishermen made any money, and those who used the looted items had to worry about being confiscated by the military.
The fishing village is now very different from before. The fishing village was designated as a commercial area by the Red Bay base of the Third Knights, and the streets were re-paved. The houses facing the street were all rented out, and businessmen from nearby cities were happy to spend some money in what was about to become the third largest port in the empire.
A new square has been built in the center of the village, and the seafood market is located there, and there is no charge. On the periphery of the square is the newly built Temple of Light chapel and bell tower, which are closely adjacent to the village meeting room and security room, as well as the library. Some wealthy businessmen also rented nearby land and built their own residences. A little further out, facing the sea, is the trade area. Warehouses and docks are still being built here, and piles of materials are piled everywhere.
¡°These were all plans I had made with Montetier and the others before. We planned to spend a year building the largest port in the empire, and then use the tax revenue from trade to support the Knights. Hey, but this plan also requires a lot of money upfront. We were thinking about it when we went to Vader Fortress. Because of the black-robed genetic man, I still don¡¯t know the progress of the plan. Well, after I settle down with Durika and the others, I have to take a closer look and then find a way to get some money. . .
"Our captain is here." I was looking at the new village in trance, and Hewitt interrupted me. I looked in the direction of the soldier's finger and saw a squad of soldiers walking neatly from the other side of the dock construction site. The leader was a squad leader, but I couldn't tell who it was because they were too far away.
"Is there something going on? Hewitt." After a while, the ten-man team came to me, but I didn't recognize the captain.
¡°It¡¯s nothing, this guy wants to go in, but he doesn¡¯t have a certificate.¡± Hewitt pointed at me, and then stood next to the captain.
"Who are you? What are you doing here? Why didn't anyone come to pick you up?" asked the captain, who looked nothing like a veteran.
"I am your leader, Baron DuBoer." I had no choice but to tell the truth.
"Haha you are our captain? If you were our captain, wouldn't I be the Flame Knight? Haha" The captain thought there must be something wrong with my brain, because I am still wearing Kensington clothes from head to toe. The costumes at the Pass Strait base were indeed weird enough for them.
"Are you new here? It's not your fault you don't know me. Can you call your squadron leader, or any veteran of the Red Bay Guards?" I had to repeat what I said before. .
"Are you crazy? Don't say that our squadron leader is not free. Even if he is free, he will not come to see you, a madman. Veterans, don't even think about it. Now, except for the squadron leader who is a veteran, everyone else here is Went out on a mission."
What are you doing? None of those guys are here! I had a sneaking feeling that something big might have happened.
"Is the blacksmith Zigro here? Is there anyone in charge?" I guess the blacksmith won't go out. That guy only wants to make iron.
"Hey! You still know Lord Zigro. Sorry, Lord Zigro has gone to Sevibo Gate City and is not here. Hey! What am I talking to you here?" The captain was impatient and laughed at himself. He shook his head and left with the team.
What is this! I, a baron and a holy knight, can't even enter my base camp! I fork!
"Is Miss Bitril here? I can see her, too." I suddenly thought of this little girl, because after the exchange incident, I said I would never let Bitril take any risks in the future. I guess she should be here this time. Camp.
"Eh? Why are you so stubborn? No one is allowed in without a certificate, how many times do you want me to tell you!" The captain, who had already walked out for about ten steps, turned around and yelled at me.
"Please tell Miss Bitril that the person who made him a flying lantern is back!" I don't know why.Then I suddenly remembered that I made a Kongming lantern for Bitril on her birthday.
"Yes! Yes! You better tell the truth, or I'll beat you to death! Wait!" The captain ordered a soldier to run to report the news, and then he came back and surrounded me, as if waiting! I'm going to get addicted to my hands soon.
I didn¡¯t bother to pay attention to him, so I found a clean place by myself, lay down and basked in the sun.
"Master DuBoer! Master DuBoer!"
"Slower down than Miss Lillie! Pay attention to your steps and don't fall!"
From a distance, I saw a man running over in a hurry, and a few steps behind him there was a group of soldiers chasing after him in embarrassment.
"Bitterl!" I stood up in a hurry and looked over with wide eyes, Hi! Who else could that be if she wasn't Bitril!
The squad leader who was staring at me eagerly just now panicked and quickly got out of the way and stood aside. Finally, Bitril ran up to me, and then stopped.
¡°Bitrill, it¡¯s really me, Dibor!¡± Looking at the girl standing blankly in front of me, I couldn¡¯t help but get excited.
¡°Ah!¡± Bitril exclaimed and collapsed directly. I quickly stepped forward and hugged her.
"Is it really you? Master Diboer." Bitril said in disbelief.
"It's really me, Bitril! I am the Dibor who can make flying lanterns." I looked at Bitril's pale face full of tears, and couldn't help but tremble all over.
"Master Diboer, you are finally back" After saying that, Bitril, who was running all the way, could no longer hold on and fainted.
"Go back to camp!" I refused Hewitt's help, held the girl tightly in my arms, and then, surrounded by soldiers, strode towards the camp of the Third Knights.
"Don't move, take a good rest." I stopped Bitril who was trying to get up from the bed. This girl was running like crazy just now. She didn't even know her shoes were gone. As a result, her feet were full of gashes. It was heartbreaking to see the blood.
"You just lie down and don't get out of bed until your feet hurt!"
"But I still have a lot of things to do. I'm fine, really." The girl looked at me with an aggrieved look, trying to prove that she could still do things.
"Don't argue with me. I'm the captain now. By the way, just lie down and talk to me." I took the pillow from an officer's female family member and put it under Bitril, letting her Lie down and get comfortable.
¡°Betrill told me that most of the Knights have gone out to look for me, and the only ones left at the base are the recruits of one squadron and the families of the officers. Lilith, Montenegro and the others have been away for a week, and the latest news came back just one day ago. The news said that Lilith and their backup team had merged with Cremo and his front team, and were now meeting Bodie. The search team from Newland City searched for me together in the Proda Mountain Canyon in Lekhmalaka County.
The coalition forces of the Archangel Knights assembled in Bodie Newland City are planning to launch a counterattack against the Black Robe Knights after receiving information from Kate Winner, the black-robed prisoner captured by Cremo and the others. But their counterattack plan shocked me. If Leal used the Human Knights on the mainland to attack Blue Star City with all their strength, then they have now freed up their hands. If the Archangel Knights choose to counterattack at this time, they will undoubtedly be annihilated, and may even provoke an all-out war between the Genetics and the Holy Malaga Empire.
no! We must not start a frontal war at this time, I must try to stop it! After getting the latest information, I immediately ordered the message to be sent to three parties. First, in my own name, immediately notify Lilith¡¯s troops to withdraw to the Red Bay base. Second, in my own name, immediately notify King Tetrik to revoke the order to search for me, and strictly prohibit any leakage of the news of my safe return. Third, in the name of the Third Knights, it is announced that a wartime curfew will be implemented in Red Bay tonight. No one is allowed to go out without permission. Anyone who violates the order will be punished by military law.
After issuing the above three orders, I called together all the soldiers, family members and other relevant people in the base, and issued an internal silence order. This is the most stringent ban since the founding of the Third Knights. Violators will be put to death regardless of severity. After the ban was issued, I had no time to rest and immediately started issuing new orders. I ordered Captain Kimberly of the Red Bay Guards Squadron to be the patrol officer for the curfew tonight, and asked him to lead the entire squadron to set up posts everywhere. Anyone who disobeys the order will be captured immediately. Then Hewitt was declared inspector general, supervising all Red Bay soldiers and civilians, and giving him absolute executive power.
"When all the orders were given, I didn't care about eating, and hurriedly took Hewitt and that arrogant guy named Gansance?He rushed to the cliff opposite the shrimp island.
