Captain Seyrius of the Natya Federation Navy? Moore stood on the side of the battleship Nacibia. At that moment, she felt as if the zenith and the soles of her feet had turned into an abyss, including her, and she could no longer break free.

She was seated on the Natsibia, the only Fleet Battleship of the Federation, surrounded by a main fleet of twelve first-class battleships and fifteen second-class battleships, a patrol and travelogue fleet echelon of twenty cruisers and thirty-four frigates, and a huge transport fleet of more than a hundred troop carriers and supply ships of various sizes. This is already two-thirds of the living force of the Federation Navy, with more than 200 large and small floating ships carrying 1,500 battle mages, nearly 20,000 Federation Navy soldiers and more than 30,000 marines, and more than 2,000 large and small flying beasts. Of course, it also includes enough military supplies for two months' food and grass for this huge group of humans and beasts, as well as enough military supplies to deal with three or four 100,000-person battles.

Except for the thirteen battleships of the special and first class, only one-third of the remaining more than fifty large and small battleships belonged to the property of the federal navy, and the rest belonged to the arcantology of the Federation. Some of the so-called cruisers and frigates were actually armed merchant ships by their scientific name a month ago, and they even just finished running their ships. Although federal law does not allow civil servants and politicians to do business directly, if they lease their "sacrosanct private property" to others to use as bodyguards for shipping and merchant fleets, you have nothing to say. This is the same as the nature of eating land rent and eating rent, it is the legality of people's private property, even if it is reasonable to make a lawsuit against the goddess.

Although everyone understands in their hearts what this is all about.

A large floating fleet. More than half of these warships were privately owned. This is also due to the strange military system and the miserable financial situation of the Federation. According to federal law, in addition to the fact that special and 1st class battleships are military supplies. All rich people, as long as they have the qualification of a two-star or above magician. Prove that you have "made a significant contribution to the Confederacy" and you are legally entitled to own a floating ship with the highest degree of armament as a second-class battleship, and even to hire experienced seamen and skilled sailors for the ship, as if it were a private army. Of course, also according to federal law, if you own a floating warship privately, but as long as the Federation issues a call order, you are obliged to take the ship into the war and fight to the death under the orders of the Federation's commander-in-chief.

In a sense. This is an unavoidable feudal remnant! Although there is also a certain member of the Federal Congress who said eloquently: "It is a virtue for the ages to raise a hundred warships without spending a penny of the national treasury!" ”

In this huge fleet, privately owned warships are specially customized, and in peacetime, they can quickly change the first cargo compartment on both sides of the ship into gun emplacements, load weapons, and transform them into standard frigates, cruisers, and even battleships.

As a result, this fleet has a suffocating rabble aura on its body. For example, the closest second-class battleship to the Nacibia is said to have been before departure. It had just returned from a shipload of pickles on the ground, and now the whole ship was filled with a large smell of sour pickles.

Of course, even if it is a rabble, this is the largest collection of man-made objects in human history. In the vast sky, they are densely arranged in a neat formation. It resembles a massive fortress in the air made up of planks and masts.

This is indeed an armed force that will amaze and panic any power leader on the ground. Half of these floating warships can reduce millions of inhabited cities like Seroxia to ruins in three days. A single salvo of the magic crystal main guns of thirteen large battleships could collapse an infinite military formation of tens of thousands of people.

But. Even in such a battleship fortress that could be attacked and defended, Sehireu still felt very uncomfortable. Her gaze surpassed the array of battleships cascading around her. Looking at the surrounding sky, I couldn't see the boundless blue sky above my head. Under the soles of the feet, the sea of pure white clouds out of sight. Compared with the greatness and immensity of nature, the battleship fortress built by the Federation with all its national strength is so fragile and insignificant.

With the perception of an elite magician, Sai Xiliu's eyesight naturally far surpassed that of ordinary people, and she saw a small floating boat parked on the shore of the sea of clouds beyond the fleet array, waiting for a pair of flying winged scouts to board the ship for inspection.

"That's ......"

"It should just be a cruise ship nearby. Hehe, suddenly seeing such a huge fleet kill out of the sea of clouds, the owner of the ship was already frightened. It's really pitiful. The answer to her was a woman of about twenty-three or fourteen years old, with a beautiful face, but the outline was a little tougher, but it was still in the category of beauty, but unfortunately it was too tall, and the competition was more than a head taller, and most men would definitely be ashamed of themselves after seeing it. Moreover, from a woman's point of view, this woman's skin is very dark, not the healthy and energetic wheat color, but a kind of swarthy with a battlefield-like aura, and her figure is stronger. It's really a little less feminine.

She was a sergeant major in the Federal Navy, with thick armor under the sleeves of her robe and a sword hanging from her waist.

"Ah, it's Misha!" Sehireu should have had a good relationship with the female sergeant major, smiled, and naturally greeted the other party.

"Looking at the sky? Or are you looking at our fleet? Miss. ”

"I suddenly feel that compared to the sky and the sea of clouds, our fleet, our country, our wars, and, of course, us, are all very small." Sehireux smiled reluctantly.

The reason why this female sergeant major, who was called Misha by Sehiru, called the other party the eldest lady was because she was Sehiru in the first place? A servant of a two-star Moorish magician. The military system of the Federation, any "Federal Arcane Arcan" with official magician qualifications, once they join the army, they are born with the rank of lieutenant or above. And at the same time, they can also enter the army with their own subordinates. These mages from all walks of life in society are subordinate according to their strength, fame, and seniority. They will immediately obtain different positions from sergeant to colonel, serving as the assistant of these Arcane noble officers and even the important detachment commanders of the troops under their command.

Of course. Since they are also high-ranking federal non-commissioned officers or officers, their salaries naturally come from federal finances. It is said that this is also a kind of "welfare" that the Federation gives to the ruling class, the magicians. Of course, to let this kind of bizarre nepotism penetrate into the military system in a grand manner, to put it bluntly, is to allow the possibility of mountaineering and militarization of the army. Regarding such a question, Lu Xi said that there are enough federal slots allowed even for private warships anyway, and it doesn't seem to matter if there are more.

Of course, Sehireu is not Lu Xi. He is not a compassionate reformer. She was born as a commoner, and with her talent and hard work, she became a high-class new magician.

She had just turned twenty in the late spring of this year, had been promoted to the rank of two-star magician and captain, and had officially become one of the operational staff officers of the Federal Praetorian Fleet Command. In addition to being a member of the Commander-in-Chief, he is also responsible for the organization and communication of affairs between the Fleet Formation Puppet Formation Force and the Command. To put it bluntly, which puppet has dropped a nail, and if the rearmament unit wants to apply for funding and procurement, it needs the consent of Sehiru, and it can be said that it is a position that can be fattened no more.

Before that. She also worked in the logistics department of the Ministry of Military Affairs for two months, mainly responsible for re-examining the procurement plan of the standing army's commonly used consumables, such as military uniforms, food, medicine, and training equipment. To put it bluntly, any chamber of commerce wants to do business in the daily necessities of the federal army. It's impossible to bypass her, and it's also a fat position.

Of course, Seyriku himself was not the kind to be born as a commoner. When I was young, I thought that I had been wronged and suffered enough, and when I got to an important position, I wanted to become even more greedy and greedy.

Maybe it's been with Lu Xi for a long time. The world she sees now is actually enough to kill most of the so-called high-ranking lady daughters in seconds. The princesses and future empresses of the two empires can be regarded as friends who talk very happily; A few pieces of equipment on his body are enough to be placed in any Arcane family as an heirloom; At present, he also owns his own real estate, and his bank deposits are quite rich. It can definitely be regarded as a little rich woman with a rich dowry and a promising future. And I am also a very decent and responsible person. There is no possibility that anyone will be able to take bribes if they learn about their next position.

Such a promising and small asset, and a new elite magician who is also a beautiful girl, even if he is from a civilian background, he is the heir of the Arcane nobles in the past, and he has to snatch it home to marry his wife. The ruling class of the Federation is rotten and stupid, but it is not brainless, and when a commoner overcomes the congenital ceiling and enters high society, they are actually willing to accept such new blood as one of them. Of course, only if you are obedient......

However, although Miss Student Council President, who has been with Lu Xi for a long time, is very decent and humble on the outside, she is absolutely disobedient in her bones.

In fact, because of her serious work attitude, and even used thunderous means to clean up several black sheep in the rearmament troops, many people who were waiting to see this "yellow-haired girl" joke were shocked -- nonsense, no matter how soft and obedient the sister paper that survived the abyss copy was, she must have a decisive side in her bones -- the puppet unit of the Praetorian Fleet had reached the most complete state in the past 20 years, so it was praised by the commander of the fleet.

However, Sai Xiliu knew in his heart that the reason why he was able to have such an important position now and did not encounter too many constraints in his work must have been influenced by Lu Xi, who he had not seen for more than five months.

She's not a little girl who just stepped out of school anymore, and of course she knows, Orucello? What does the sole heir of Berencaster represent in this powerful federation? She also knows that with Lu Xi's strength today, even if he has no family background, he can still mix well and become one of the most shining names in the Federation. She also knew that her relationship with Lu Xi could not be concealed from the eyes of the elites of the various factions in the high-level of the Federation, as long as she was mixed in the constitution of the Federation, even if Lu Xi did not say a word, she would also be taken care of in all aspects, and her career development would be completely smooth - provided that the core interests of some factions were not involved.

Speaking of which, what is my relationship with that guy? As soon as he thought of this, Sehireu had an urge to smile bitterly, and involuntarily touched the bracelet he was wearing on his wrist. This is a bracelet with gold mixed with a small amount of Mithril and silver to create a silver branch and gold leaf style, which looks like a very beautiful piece of jewelry, but it is actually a very good gathering bracelet magic tool. If the concept of the game is a red magic equipment that can increase the power of meditation level spellcasting and a certain amount of intelligence, Lu Xi customized it in the Eppen Society before leaving Elichar, and it was delivered to Sai Xiliu's house on her birthday.

"You're thinking of Master Berencaster again, right?" Misha smiled. A few years ago, the term "Master of Belencaster" was used to refer to Orocello, but now there is a different person.

"The fleet will arrive in Morshire tomorrow for resupply. It is expected that the resupply operation should last about five days, and you can actually take time off work to see him, and the commander should approve it. ”

Sai Xiliu was indeed a little moved, but after thinking about it, he immediately shook his head: "After all, it's official business, and we are on an expedition this time, so I don't want him to worry." ”

Just because it is an expedition, if you don't say it, won't he be more worried? Misha looked at Saihiru, as if to express the above meaning with his eyes, but he did not say it directly.

Sehireux had "picked up" Misha two months earlier. This young female warrior is actually a veteran mercenary with a career of more than ten years. She was an orphan that the leader of a small mercenary group picked up on the battlefield and brought it with her. He has been growing up in war at a young age, so he is only in the first half of his twenties, and he can already be regarded as a "veteran" who has experienced a hundred battles.

After the death of the mercenary leader, the new successor of the regiment leader seems to have a bad relationship with Misha, so the latter simply quit the mercenary group and is ready to start over in a different place. She had come to Elichar with her savings, and had only planned to travel to the heavens and then to look for work in Neosphia, but she met Sehiraeus and became the first servant of the new magical noblelady.

Misha has not been Saishiliu's servant for a long time, and although their relationship is a mutual trust, it is not close enough to say nothing.

Sai Xiliu also seemed to feel a little embarrassed, couldn't help but laugh, pursed his lips, and then said, "Commander...... Is there something I need to take care of? ”

"Not yet, the commander is taking a lunch break at this time. You know, no one can be disturbed while he's resting. Misha shook her head, her expression seemed a little subtle.

Sai Xiliu couldn't help but show a crying and laughing expression, but he quickly reined in and said stubbornly: "Anyway, we haven't entered the war zone now, and we staff officers can handle these daily affairs, and we really don't have to bother the commander to bother with it." ”

"I hope so. I just think that, as the commander of the first army, the commander is inevitably too lax. Misha spread her hands and shrugged her shoulders. is really worthy of being a female warrior born as a mercenary, even if she holds the rank of the Federation and holds the title of the Federation in a grand manner, she still lacks the necessary respect for the military bigwigs.

Seyriliu shook his head: "This is not our good evaluation...... Forget it, Misha, I'll go to the three-story warehouse, and I'd like to check the formation of the puppets again. In addition, several of my own puppets need to be maintained. ”

“…… Miss, I just wanted to say that. Your Excellency Commander and the others are too lax, but you are too serious. ”

"It's a military operation, after all, Misha. No matter how serious you are, it is not an exaggeration. Sehireu replied with a smile. She looked at the small yacht outside the fleet array, which seemed to have been checked by this time, and began to accelerate into the sea of clouds, and could no longer see the real thing. (To be continued......)
