Mystery: Mr. Witch and Miss Hunter

Chapter 358
The next day, Adele and his party came to the naval base in Port Behrens together.

With Ge Gelan's ability, it would take a little effort to directly enter the naval base silently, but Adele didn't want to be too direct, after all, she didn't know whether the "Founder of the Nation" was at the naval base , Once there is a conflict, it may lead to unpredictable consequences.

"Lieutenant Circe? Didn't you stay in Alesser?"

The navy soldier at the door asked in surprise when he saw Adele.

"Something happened." Adele replied vaguely, "Please inform Lieutenant General White, there is someone here who wants to see him."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

The soldier didn't dare to neglect, and immediately ran to notify Emlyn.

"This gentleman and Ms. Hall are members of an organization with seniority older than me, and they have quite a lot of autonomy in many matters. They are currently in charge of the logistics support of the entire Loen Expeditionary Force."

Adele introduced to Gagran in advance, "If you want to plan something on the southern continent, it's best to say hello to Augustus, the 'Founder of the Nation', through him in advance, so as not to cause conflicts in time."

"It's up to you to decide for yourself."

Gagaran waved his hand casually, not paying much attention to these details, and believed that Adele could handle them well.

The three of them waited not long before Emlyn White, who was wearing a military uniform, walked in quickly from the door. After seeing Adele, he hesitated for a moment, as if he was considering what kind of attitude he should use to communicate with her. Then he spoke to Adele and said:
"You did a good job. That boatload of art is enough to shut the mouths of many people."

Before Adele and the others, the "Xuefeng" had already returned to Port of Behrens with the spoils, and completed the loading and unloading work yesterday. Emlyn White was just checking the inventory report in the office.

Originally, the annihilation of the back-up iron-clad ships was enough to make Emlyn lose his official position, but this batch of spoils was enough to silence most of the people in the military who coveted Emlyn's position.

Emlyn himself belongs to the ancient extraordinary race, and also belongs to the foreign guests of the Church of the Mother Earth. His identity is quite sensitive. As long as the Church of the Mother Earth does not give up its support for him, what he does is not outrageous to a certain extent. The forces within the military cannot bring him down.

Even with the addition of these ironclad ships, the Kingdom's army would not be able to win quickly; and even without these ironclad ships, the Kingdom's military would not lose to the Rose School of Thought.The naval fleet is the icing on the cake for the Loen military, and it is far from being able to send charcoal in a timely manner.

Moreover, the sinking of the fleet had nothing to do with Emlyn. After all, no one knew in advance that such a planet would suddenly rise from the ground.Originally, the military needed someone to take the blame, but now that Emlyn has real spoils, even the Kingdom's military can't blame him.

"More important than the value of these works of art is the significance of their presence in this place."

Adele didn't emphasize her own role too much, but changed the topic lightly, "They symbolize the development of human art. Compared with artworks, they are more like a history book and have excellent commemorative significance. It is the priceless treasure of Intis."

"And now, a situation has arisen that requires the Intis people to send these priceless treasures away...or in other words, the Intis people and the people of the three countries of Lunburg believe that this situation has already occurred."

Adele nodded. Seeing Emlyn nodded clearly, she seemed to have thought of this point a long time ago, so she didn't continue to dwell on this point. Instead, she took a step back and let Gagran behind her come. .

"This is my teacher I mentioned before, the sprout of the tree of calamity, the symbol of destruction and rebirth, the lord of plague and natural disasters, Medea Gagrand."

Adele introduced to Emlyn, "Not long ago, he became the angel of Sequence 2."

The habitual proud smile on Emlyn's face suddenly froze and shattered. When Adele read out Gagaran's honorable name, the aura of the lady in front of him seemed to suppress him all of a sudden, making him almost control Trembling uncontrollably, and this feeling, he only experienced when meeting 'Full Moon' Olmer.

Emlyn stretched out his hand stiffly, and the beautiful lady also walked towards him, and gently squeezed his fingertips. The warm touch was transmitted upwards along Emlyn's fingers, which made him turn back. God came, and quickly saluted and greeted the other party.

The angels on the ground in Sequence 2 are equivalent to the great existence of the Pope in any church. Even though Emlyn's name in the Church of the Earth is still a bluff, he still cannot avoid being deflated when facing real angels.

Fortunately, Gagran didn't do anything outrageous. She just nodded to Emlyn, then sat back in her seat, and then said in a soft voice:
"Zatwin has been killed by me. Now there are no demigods guarding the troops along East Balam. You can rest assured to launch a general attack. If necessary, I will directly participate in the assistance."

Gaglan's tone was gentle, without any murderous intent, as if what she said just now was not that she killed a demigod and was going to kill more people, but went to a clothing store to buy a new dress.

Before Emlyn could react, Gagaran took out a light gray tree-shaped crystal from his robe pocket, with a round eyeball in the middle, and branch-like crystal hair spreading around it.

"This is Zatwin's extraordinary characteristic, you can confirm it."

Gagaran put the piece of Extraordinary feature on the table, trying to push it to Emlyn who was opposite.

"No, no need..."

Emlyn felt his heart beating fast—even though the blood race's heartbeat was slower than normal people's, his heart was still beating fast.The demigod-level spiritual intuition clearly told him that this was the extraordinary characteristic of Zatwin, the demigod of the Rose School of Thought who had been causing him troubles in the rear battlefield and logistics, and it was true.

"I'm going to contact His Royal Highness Prince Augustus right now. It's best to launch a counterattack immediately. We need a decisive blow to reverse the situation before the incident of Aleser reaches the front line of the Haggati Grassland."

Emlyn's face showed uncontrollable excitement. This war has lasted for more than half a year, and the resistance of the Rose School of Thought is stronger than everyone expected. This war must be ended as soon as possible, otherwise, this place will become a devouring god. The bottomless pit of believers erodes the power of the Orthodox Church to fight against foreign gods.

"It's best like this." Gagran stepped forward to salute gracefully. Seeing Emlyn walking out the door in a hurry to contact William Augustus's back, she said softly to Adele beside her:

"Do you feel it? Now, you have entered the game."

"Into the game?" Adele was slightly taken aback.

"There are two types of people in the world, one is inside and the other is outside. You told me before that if the future is doomed, it is not the future, but in your heart, you want to know yourself better than everyone else. What does the future look like."

Ge Gelan smiled slightly, "The most important thing is that you just want to know. As for whether you admit it or not, I'm afraid it depends on whether this future suits your wishes."

"I almost believed what I said."

Adele couldn't help laughing, "From the beginning to the end, I have been acting under the arrangement of you, Miss Hall, or others, do you think I am the kind of stupid young man who will make a big fuss after a little loss? "

Gagaran smiled and didn't continue to explain. He just quietly waited for the result of the contact between Emlyn and William Augustus, and no matter what the result was, it meant that the situation on the battlefield in the southern continent would undergo an earth-shaking change.

……

At the same time, near the Gargas Islands, a small island a few hundred nautical miles away from the capital Nas.

Here, like Conston City, the whaling industry is booming. White stone whaling houses can be seen everywhere, and huge beluga whales are dismembered into skin, meat, fat, bones and "gray amber".

The latter two are panniers that can be used to make long banquet skirts, and the other is top-quality spices. Whether it is used as incense or added to perfume, they are all luxury items that can only be enjoyed by nobles and rich people.

However, this place is now completely deserted, and the whaling house is no longer in operation, because someone has occupied this place and used the city as a temporary foothold, and few residents on the island survived.

The strategic contraction of the Church of the God of War is not limited to Indoport. The Feysacs don't feel bad about giving up overseas colonies like Nass that are far away from the mainland.

Next to the island, there is a huge gloomy and dark sailing ship moored.

The sailboat is close to 200 meters in length, and its front and rear are tilted high, making it look like a crescent moon as a whole.

Its surface is painted in black, and the cannons on the side of the ship are scattered into three rows, which are orderly up and down. The part protruding from the deck, except for the mast, is also towering and huge, at least equivalent to a five-story house.

The oddest thing about the ship is that it has only one sail, which depicts a black tombstone.

This is the "Death", one of the most famous and legendary ships on the five seas, and the flagship of the "Undead King" Agaritu!

Not long ago, Agaritu occupied this small island. There was no specific reason, but just by the way, Agaritu ordered to capture it, creating a small-scale massacre limited by the size of the island.

However, this time Agaritu was not as eager to leave as before, but anchored on this island, as if waiting for something.

In the inner cabin of the Death that no outsider had ever entered, the "Undead King" Agaritu, who was pale and seemed about to rot and die at any moment, was sitting on a soft sofa with blood-red spots, and his whole body was filled with a depraved and evil smell. Wrapped in thick black mist.

Sitting opposite him was a slender figure in a black robe. The other person was tightly wrapped in black robe from head to toe. It could only be judged from his voice that he might be a man.He wore a brass beak mask on his face, which blocked Agaritu's vague detection.

"Who the hell are you and what are you looking for me for?"

Agaritu's voice is so sharp that people will feel instinctively uncomfortable when they hear it, as if someone is holding a hand drill and stirring in the audience's mind.

"I introduced myself, I am the first pillar of the Morse Penance, 'Atheism'."

The man in black cleared his throat, "I'm here this time to discuss a cooperation with the 'Undead King'."

"If you need pirates to do things, don't you have your own pirate king? Why don't you find the 'Queen of the Stars' instead come to me?"

Agaritu did not agree hastily, but asked playfully. In fact, the alarm bells were already ringing in his heart, and he was ready to counterattack at any time.

The level of the ten pillars of the Moses Ascetic Order is uneven, and Agaritu knows this, but he also knows that Cattleya, who has broken through Sequence Three, is only the third pillar in the Moses Ascetic Order; while the second pillar "Stupid" Albert Gnostic has even reached the level of Sequence Two in rumors.

As for what this sudden appearance of the first pillar means, even Agaritu has to weigh it carefully.

"'Rejected' has other tasks and is going in another direction."

"Atheism" in black robe said slowly, "Most of the rest of the pillars have their own affairs, so I need you to do it."

"What is it?" Agarito swallowed, "What benefits can I get?"

"It's your favorite looting mission. What you can gain depends entirely on how much you can grab." "Atheism" said softly, "The target is Indo Harbor. You should have noticed the change of the 'Death' too. I don't think so." Trust yourself that you don't want to attack there."

"If you succeed, you may be able to control the 'Death' smoothly, instead of being its slave."

"Why are you so sure that I will agree to help you?"

Suppressing the surprise in his heart that the person had revealed the secret between him and the "Death", Agaritu tentatively said, "I don't seem to have this obligation."

"You really haven't." There was a scratching voice between the atheist's black robes, "It's like you have no right to refuse."

Agaritu was about to open his mouth to refute something, when he saw the black-robed man on the opposite side slowly stretch out an arm made of metal splicing from the sleeve of his robe, and took off the beak mask on his face little by little.

Afterwards, Agaritu saw an invisible black void, in which there were seven spherical eyes floating.

Without warning, Agaritu's pale skin began to rot, and chunks of flesh fell from the skeleton, covered with green-glowing mildew.

The thick black mist surrounding him automatically poured into his body, filling the missing parts, and it took a while to restore to its original shape, making Agaritu look even more haggard and thin.

Holding on to the armrest of the sofa violently, Agaritu said bitterly, "When do you want me to do it?"

"Atheism" put on his mask again, and still said in a calm tone: "Leave now, 'Materialism' will cooperate with you. We will not force you to die. If there is a saint that you cannot deal with, you can Run away anytime."

After finishing speaking, His figure disappeared strangely, and turned into an invisible information flow together with his black robe, leaving only Agaritu with a gloomy face sitting alone in the captain's cabin.
