In the midst of a rainy night.

The investigator in charge of standing guard at Bailun Wharf stood in the dock against the violent wind and rain and the sea water that slapped up from time to time behind him, and he did not dare to relax in the slightest in his eyes.

He and his companions who are also on duty here are elite investigators who have worked in Springs for a long time. However, even the absolute elite of them, after being urgently dispatched an hour ago, can only do the job of guarding the docks now.

Rich work experience is like rain blowing down in the sky at this moment.

While wreaking havoc on the earth, the facts are very obvious without explanation.

To be able to let people like them come here as guards, in such a typhoon weather, the 'guests' who board the ship on this pier are definitely the top beings on the mysterious side.

Thinking of this, the investigator's heart was filled with a wave of nervousness.

The typhoon weather never before seen in the history of Springs, the urgent orders issued by the royal family, and the cautious attitude shown by the Investigation Bureau.

Where you can't see it, something amazing is happening......

The time came to 7:30.

On time, two figures, a man and a woman, lifted the rain curtain in the distance, stepped on the Bailun Wharf with smooth steps, and also entered the investigator's field of vision.

The steps of the two were concise and rhythmic, and although the wind and rain were heavy, it seemed that they could not leave a trace on the two of them. It's as if they are not walking in a typhoon now, but on a path after the rain in early spring.

You don't even have to ask.

The investigators who stayed there were able to identify the men among them.

– Ronald Adler.

In the city of Springs, it makes sense that a young canon holder with a good reputation would be invited to the action tonight.

But the girl next to Ronald ......

As investigators, they have never liked to judge people by their appearance.

But they also knew in their hearts at this moment that this beautiful girl should be the new apprentice of the other party who had recently been added to their command. It's not a smart move to bring such people with you in such an operation.

Looking at the two people who came over, the investigator immediately spoke:

"Mr. Ronald, tonight's ......"

"I'm also the holder of the original canon, don't underestimate people~~"

Before the investigator could say anything about rejecting Heloise, Heloise on the side took the initiative to come over and say with a smile on her face that she was the holder of the original text.

Looking at the dry and smiling face of the girl in front of him.

The investigator realized what Heloise meant, and was stunned.

This...... This is also the canon holder?

Then Ronald and Helloise didn't do much.

Stepping on the waves that happened to hit the pier, the two of them walked together onto the medium-sized warship that was parked at the Bailun Pier and was obviously unscientifically stable.

"That's what you said, is it really okay?"

"Anyway, I can't hide it from the future, it's better to tell them, it's not something unsightly."

“……”

At this time, there were not many people on the ship, or there were no people on the deck at all.

Ronald and Heloise entered the ship, all the way into the brightly lit cabin, and only then did they feel that something had changed.

It's so quiet.

The unremarkable walls of the cabin seem to completely isolate the typhoon outside, and the ground beneath your feet is clean and tidy, as if it had been maintained by professional cleaning staff.

Going deeper, the two saw a few people discussing something around a long table, and their tone and expression revealed a nervousness.

It was at this moment that the man standing at the head of the long table noticed the arrival of Ronald and the others. Looking up at the two of them, the girl who confirmed what it was, and a very happy smile appeared on her face.

"Ronald, I'm glad you're coming!"

"Long time no see, this is my apprentice and assistant Phyllis, and a trustworthy warrior."

"I am absolutely relieved of the companions you brought, come here and find a place to sit down."

Claudia, the first princess of the Grede Empire, was talking to Ronald in a very friendly manner at the moment, and she seemed really happy to meet her friend here.

And she doesn't make as much fuss about Heloise's attitude as the investigators outside. It seemed that at the same time that Heloise appeared in the cabin, she had already accepted it

As for Ronald's side......

To be honest, Claudia's appearance was also a foreseeable thing.

The possibility of Her Majesty personally leading the team is relatively low, and Her Royal Highness the Princess, who also has the right to use the encyclopedia, is naturally the best candidate for the leader of such a major task.

After the two were seated, the discussion at the long table continued again.

"What we need most now is time, with so many canon holders together, there is always a way to solve whatever happens!"

"With Mr. Klein down there to keep the ship steady, we don't need to worry about typhoons and the sea interfering with the ships."

"But what if the people who have attracted the typhoon attack?"

"If he attacks...... People with this ability, I don't think this battleship can deal with that guy's spell attack, and then everyone may have to go into the sea together to feed the fish? ”

"But we can't stay here forever without going out, can we? If you want to stop this typhoon, finding the caster to kill it is the quickest and most effective way! ”

“……”

Before tonight's 'flight' departs, the 'passengers' on the ship are discussing their plans for the future.

On the premise that Claudia is in control of the scene.

Their topics basically revolved around how to sail and how to deal with the enemy.

At the same time as the conversation, Ronald also learned more about the incident.

The typhoon was indeed artificially induced, but there were some differences in details, and according to Claudia, the culprit of the incident should be located on an island some distance from the mainland.

Someone cracked and exploited a ruin on the island, which led to the typhoon unjustifiably appearing in Springs.

The purpose of the trip.

It is to rush to that island in the shortest possible time and deal with the organization that caused this incident. As a reward for those involved in this matter, in addition to the materials captured in the battle are completely owned by themselves, there will also be a reward specially given by the royal family when they return to Springs.

What is now in doubt is the true purpose and origin of this force.

Aside from inviting a typhoon to hit Springs, the other side has not revealed any needs or superfluous information at the moment, and they are still completely in a fog for Ronald.

It is precisely because of this state of ignorance.

Now there is a very clear divide in the discussion in the cabin.

Some people feel that there are enough original book holders here, and they can naturally overwhelm the enemy with the power of thunder, and there is no need to consider superfluous things.

On the other hand, the idea is to be cautious and take a long-term view.

It's best not to take risks until you're sure of everything.
