Chapter 24: Meet Sulawan Again
Da Liang, who was looking forward to Gu Tao, did not wait for the girl, because when he kept looking at the west street, a group of people who had just entered the city from the east surrounded him.
This is a group of swamp creatures, the blind Da Liang did not recognize the face that had just parted from these distinctive faces for a while, but a roaring voice quickly told Da Liang what these lizardmen and wolf-headed people were.
"You pirate who deserves to be hanged, I didn't expect you to have such the courage to rob my ship and dare to come to Jiangcheng." These swamp creatures were none other than Sulawong's gang who had been robbed by Da Liang, who were rescued by a passing fleet while floating on the sea in a lifeboat, and followed this fleet to Shangjiang City. Due to the different routes, Sulawan arrived here a little later than Daliang, but they never expected to see this guy standing on the side of the road as soon as they entered the city.
Seeing that there was no archangel by Da Liang's side, Sulawang, who was bent on recapturing the ship, immediately surrounded Da Liang with his sailors, and at the same time called the defenders of Shangjiang City not far away. "Sir, these are all pirates, they robbed my ship not long ago, and I beg you to arrest him and punish him severely, and to recover all my looted goods."
Pirates are the public enemies of all regimes, and Sulawan's words immediately attracted a large number of soldiers to surround Da Liang and his gang. However, the defenders did not arrest Da Liang based on Sulawan's words, but said politely: "Honorable guest, since someone has accused you, we have an obligation to find out the truth. If you are not a pirate, please do not resist fearlessly, we will send you to the Pudong Fleet Admiral's Palace, and the Admiral will make the most just judgment. ”
Shangjiang City is so big, Da Liang didn't expect to meet Sulawan here. Surrounded by many soldiers, his manpower could not stop the other party's charge at all, but since the defenders did not make a move but wanted to hand themselves over to the Pudong fleet, then with Sidney's relationship, there may be room for maneuver in the matter. Moreover, going to the Pudong fleet, it is also a little closer to Julian, and he believes that even if there is a fight, an archangel will have the ability to lead him out of the encirclement and run to the sea.
It's just a pity that my brother's boatload of spices and many newly recruited excellent subordinates are probably going to be folded here. Sure enough, I was very happy and sad, my brother had a smooth ride all the way, and he was a little arrogant.
Under the watchful eye of the defenders, Da Liang obediently led Simon and them out of Shangjiang City and walked towards Pudong Military Port.
On the way, Da Liang received another concerned inquiry from Gu Tao: "Senior brother, what happened, why were you taken away by the defenders of Shangjiang City?" ”
Da Liang replied: "It's okay, probably because you, Brother Liang, and I just blocked their city gate." Don't worry, this little thing will be fined a little money at most, but the archer can't give it to you for the time being, and I'll be looking for you when I finish this matter. ”
Gu Tao watched a group of people gradually move away from the city gate, and replied with a little worry: "It's okay if you're fine, the archers will talk about it later, you have to be careful yourself, if you need me, just say it." ”
"Got it, thank you."
Under the watchful eye of the defenders, Da Liang and Sulawan walked into the Pudong Military Port of the Shangjiang Fleet. One of the world's largest fleets is stationed here, and warships of all kinds fill the vast harbor. There are brigs for daily patrols, as well as super warships with decks up to 100 meters long that can carry dragons and angels. The masts reached into the sky, making the sky above the entire harbor like a forest.
When they entered the port, they were intimidated by the invisible coercion emanating from this fleet, and did not dare to do anything disrespectful; Simon, the big-eared monsters, also cowered, not daring to look directly at the giant ship around them; Only the archers behaved normally, they belonged to the navy here, but they had to follow Sidney to become pirates, and you can see how much they want to return here.
Da Liang suddenly regretted agreeing to Gu Tao to give her an archer, he had always treated these soldiers as his personal belongings, but he ignored that these NPCs actually had their own emotions. It seems that I can only find an excuse to regret it and give Gu Tao other compensation...... What excuses? Whether these soldiers will make it out alive or not is unknown. ”
Walking behind the soldiers, Da Liang contacted the archangel Julian through the lord's rights, and asked her to prepare for battle and rush into the Pudong military port at any time to rescue herself. At the same time, he informed Sidney of his own affairs and asked him to use his connections to see if he could solve the current crisis.
"Your Excellency ran into those swamp people? That's too much of a coincidence, isn't it? Now that you are being escorted to see the Admiral of the Pudong Fleet, this will not be easy. When I was in the Pudong Fleet, I wasn't even qualified to meet the Admiral, let alone now. Your Excellency, you should act before the opportunity, and don't rush to say the location of our ship for the time being. I'll go back to the ship now and see if I can get out of here first, and then we'll get out of here when Julian gets the adults out." ”
Even Sidney said that there was no way, then there was really no way, so he could only delay as much as possible to see if he could snatch the two ships out.
Da Liang, who was full of thoughts, was soon taken to the Admiral's Mansion in the hinterland of the Pudong Military Port.
It is a castle-like building and the last defense facility of the Pudong Military Port. On the top floor of the castle stood a large number of marksmen (fourth-class soldiers, who could be promoted by archers), and on the higher shelves, a squadron of royal griffons (100) stood calmly on them, staring at the distant sea with their sharp eyes.
If you want to save people under this kind of defense, it is also a serious test for an archangel, and Da Liang is even more worried about his future.
"Go in, Lord Admiral is already waiting for you."
The wandering Da Liang was pushed into the castle, the gate closed, and only Da Liang and Sulawan entered, and their retinue were all guarded outside.
Entering the gate is the main hall of the entire castle, and the high dome is carved with mythological tales, and the guardian angels of the human race are often the protagonists of these stories. At the end of the main hall is a high platform on which a man in the uniform of an admiral sits on.
It's a woman, and the admiral of the Pudong fleet turned out to be a woman.
Da Liang stared at the woman in front of her, she had dark red curly hair, her arrogant eyes looked down, she leaned on the back of the chair, her left leg on top of her right leg, noble, Yonghua, and empty-eyed.
The woman's gaze swept over Da Liang and Sulawan, and said in a contemptuous tone, "Pirates? In the waters under the direct control of my Shangjiang fleet, I have not heard this name for a long time. Well, if any of you are a pirate, I can send him to the gallows with my own hands as a gift for such a bold act. ”
