Become a legend in the interstellar

Chapter 413 The Prince's Letter
The sea is undulating and the waves are rippling.

At a glance, there is a deep blue under the deep sea, hiding countless unknown secrets.

"call……"

The evening sea breeze blew past, blowing Moser's skirt.

His expression was indifferent, motionless, as if he had become a sculpture, floating quietly on the sea.

An invisible coercion was slowly released from him, majestic and heavy, getting heavier and heavier, like a mountain, as if it was about to press down heavily and smash the vast ocean below!

Around him, several subordinates were all nervous, looking down at the sea.

They knew that Moser seemed calm, but the anger never disappeared.

"Master Moser is dissatisfied with us." A subordinate couldn't help thinking bitterly.

The night is coming, and the whole day will be over.

With so much force, they didn't even see the shadow of the masked man, and didn't catch a trace of him!
Such a living person seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

is it possible?

In this world dominated by machinery and metal, is it really that difficult to find a flesh and blood creature?

For human beings, the southern sea area is quite a large area, and many places are full of unknowns, as if shrouded in a layer of fog.

But the general base of the deep diver camp of the mechanical race is here, on this sea.

This is the home of the deep diver camp's mechanical creatures.

The mechanical family has been operating here for many years, and they even know exactly how many uninhabited islands there are in this sea area, the location, characteristics, species of animals and plants of each island, and so on.

Previously, many people had speculated that after the masked man was forced to go to sea, he could not find a place to hide and supply, and he would be caught or killed soon.

Not only them, but even many creatures in the machine race think so.

Even some mechanical creatures felt that the scene of this dispatch was too big.

"In order to deal with a human being, is it necessary to wake up the sleeping warriors in the entire continent?" This morning, there was such a voice in some mechanical clan bases.

"Energy is tight now, and there are not many psionic resources in each base."

"The war of more than 20 years has consumed too many resources, and it has not slowed down yet..."

The mechanical race is a very efficient race.

Generally speaking, as long as the order is communicated from above, someone below will immediately execute it, and almost no one will question it.

But this time, there were more voices of doubt.

Not only the Central Continent, but even many machine clan bases on the left and right continents have received orders for a full-scale operation, all for the high-level wanted criminal code-named "Mask Man".

Many mechanical creatures don't understand why this masked man has such a high priority in the interior.

Although they questioned, they did not dare to disobey the order, so they could only execute it with a sigh.

"Hey, every action consumes immeasurable psionic resources."

There are sighing voices, and naturally there are voices of support and confidence.

"It's the master's will, don't question it, catch that human being called the Masked Man at all costs!"

"With a search of this level, he can be brought back to the base in less than a day!"

"Just one day, how much energy does it consume?"

However, more than half of today has passed.

The islands in the entire southern sea area were almost turned upside down. Many islands had their foundations dug up, but not even a hair of Su Xia was found.

On the coastline, the layers of blocking nets have been triggered many times, but most of the time, they are caught by seagulls who want to go to the pier to order French fries.

As for below the surface...

The entire camp of deep divers and the underwater troops that can be dispatched have already been dispatched.

However, these mechanical creatures are still scattered in the vast sea area, and there is no accurate exploration result so far. Instead, they have found several shipwrecks from the last century, and dug up some decayed metals that are not very useful.

"Master Moser is so angry, probably because he thinks we are not doing our job well." On the surface of the sea, several subordinates thought of this.

"Yeah, even we didn't expect that the entire race would not be able to find a single human being in an all-out campaign."

Several subordinates looked at each other and passed information to each other, and they were extremely helpless.

In fact, certain problems within the machine clan were manifested in Haima City.

As Todd, another high-ranking machine clan at the time, said—the machine clan has lived in peace for a long time, and many mechanical creatures have forgotten their honor. They are not as good as they were during the war.

If time goes back to the period of the race war with the human race, at that time, the situation seemed dangerous, but it was the fastest growing period for the machine race.

During those years, external pressure was everywhere.

It seems that there is a voice roaring in the heart of every mechanical creature, asking them to continue to evolve and become stronger, otherwise the battle of races will definitely fail!

It was a crazy history, and the whole world seemed to be on the verge of destruction.

But that is also the most beautiful history of the machine race.

Under the threat of war, unprecedented technologies appeared one after another, and countless bottlenecks that had troubled the predecessors for decades were broken through, and the whole world ushered in an era of technological explosion.

After the war, the machine race won an overall victory. How high-spirited were they at that time?
At that time, every mechanical creature thought that from now on, they could do anything!
But now, they can't even find a human being!

"Could it be that the masked man hid at the bottom of the sea?"

"The materials he carries with him cannot sustain him for too long. Maybe there are creatures in the sea to support him?"

Up to now, many mechanical creatures have to turn their eyes to this deep and boundless sea, just like Mercer now.

Moser has always been self-confident, and he is still the same this time.

Time passed, and the last lingering charm in the sky was about to disappear below the sea level. He slowly closed his eyes, and said lightly, "He... can't escape."

"My lord, what are your orders?" Several subordinates stepped forward one after another.

"Contact the major bases, I need more fighters who can operate underwater for a long time, and speed up the transformation."

"Yes!"

"Completely blockade the bottom of the sea." Mercer ordered again: "Don't believe any detection equipment, believe what you see... The masked man may have an invisible submarine, don't look at him with your current technological perspective. "

……

At this moment, under the sea surface, in a certain area, inside the submarine.

Su Xia squatted in the submarine, wearing translucent gloves, holding a blue-gold metal long sword in her hand, with a serious look, looking at it carefully.

This long sword, which the little robots had found in the sunken ship, was now in the submarine.

[Iris Flower Empire Sword: A symbol of imperial power, only the monarch can pull it out...]

A description pops up.

Just as Su Xia guessed, it was the sword of the empire that had been lost for a hundred years.

Now this long sword has been more than half decayed, the surface is full of rust, and it can no longer look like it used to be.

"Unfortunately, it's just an ordinary weapon." Su Xia sighed, his Bone Sword had been destroyed, leaving only fragments, and now he really wanted a cold weapon in his hand.

This legendary sword of imperial power is not as magical as rumored.

After losing that layer of royal brilliance, it is no better than a great sword made by a village blacksmith. In Su Xia's eyes, it is just a piece of useless scrap iron.

What's the use of a sword if it can't kill people?

Judging from the degree of corrosion of this broken sword, if you use it to cut someone, the blade may be completely shattered before the person is killed.

"Master Captain, there are too many gold coin boxes, and the storage compartment of this sightseeing submarine is not enough. We need to return to the main submarine and transfer the gold coin boxes." Sarah suddenly reminded.

"No need, let me throw them into the storage space."

Su Xia put down her long sword and put away her thoughts.

He glanced at the rear image on the screen, and saw a huge black shadow, like a giant sea monster following in the sea water behind him—it was the big submarine.

In order to prevent accidents, Sarah has been distracted by controlling the large submarine to ensure that the distance between the two submarines is not too far or too close.

At this time, there were already more than 30 small boxes in the storage compartment of this small submarine, all of which were gold coins without exception.

"Captain, how does it feel to hunt for treasure under the sea?" Sarah asked with a smile.

"It's okay, it's a dream come true after an hour." Su Xia sighed softly, her mood had calmed down, and she didn't feel the excitement at first.

Compared with the story described in the book "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea", Su Xia's experience this time is indeed a little too ordinary and lacks a lot.

Now, he looks forward to the starry sky above his head even more.

That is a vaster world, worth a lifetime to explore.

Su Xia left her seat, bent over, walked outside the storage compartment, opened the hatch, and waved her hand lightly, the more than 30 boxes of gold coins disappeared and entered his storage space.

"The storage space really looks like a game world." Sarah pursed her lips and chuckled.

At first, Hal was startled by Su Xia's ability to collect things with one hand.

Hal thought that Su Xia could tear apart the space with his bare hands and directly open the cracks in different spaces.

"What if this is a game?" Su Xia asked her.

"Then it's a pleasure meeting you, Master Player."

Sarah still smiled, not taking it seriously: "However, Captain, have you ever thought that maybe the real earth you think is also a game world?"

Su Xia shook her head: "What do you think?"

"True and false are a relative concept, but also an idealistic concept." Sarah smiled slightly, "As long as you think it is true, it is true, and if you think it is false, it is false."

"..."

Su Xia shrugged, said nothing, and returned to her seat.

He really didn't want to discuss this kind of mysterious and mysterious topic, because it would definitely lead to a dead end in the end.

Next, Sarah activated the other small exploration robots, and let them all enter the sunken ship to carry those small boxes of gold coins.

Boxes of gold coins were transported back to the submarine, and Susha's wealth was growing rapidly.

Meanwhile, the search for the rest of the wreck has not stopped.

More than ten minutes later, a new discovery was made.

"Master Captain, the little robot has found a special box." Sarah reminded aloud.

Hearing the sound, Su Xia raised her head.

In the upper left corner of the screen, the little robot found a larger box in the corner of a room on the third deck.

The shape of this box is similar to those of the small gold coin boxes. The surface is covered with gray-black flocculent seabed sediments, and the original appearance cannot be seen.

"Open it directly?" Sarah asked.

"Well, open it."

After receiving the instruction, the little robot in the sunken ship acted immediately and hit the box lock hard.

With a click, the decayed lock was immediately shattered, and a gap opened up in the box.

The little robot reached out and pressed the two ends of the box cover, and slowly opened it, so that the contents of the box were presented to Su Xia.

"No gold coins."

Su Xia's eyes were fixed, and she saw a very ordinary glass bottle in the box.

The glass bottle was pale green, translucent, and somewhat rough. It was a bottle of rum that sailors liked most in the last century.

Naturally, such a wine bottle does not need to be solemnly locked in the box.

Su Xia noticed that through the translucent glass bottle, a rolled object could be vaguely seen, which seemed to be a scroll.

"drifting bottle?"

The bottle, and the contents in the bottle, inexplicably triggered some of Su Xia's memories.

"Bring it back and see what's in the bottle." Su Xia ordered.

"Ok."

After a while, the little robot returned to the submarine with the box.

The surface of the box was wet, and a rotten smell rushed over, as if it had been buried in a swamp for a long time, and the smell was indescribable.

Su Xia put on gloves as usual, and put on a gas mask by the way, then took out the glass bottle from the box.

He shook it slightly, and there was a sound of shaking and collision in the bottle.

"It's really a drifting bottle." Su Xia stretched out her hand to pinch the stopper on the bottle mouth, and pulled it out lightly. With a bang, the stopper was pulled out.

He turned the bottle upside down and shook it a few times, the rolled paper in the bottle fell out and fell into his hand.

The paper was yellow, but fortunately it was sealed well, it was not corroded by sea water, and it was still dry.

【You got the item "Prince's Letter", open it and have a look】

The system suddenly popped up a prompt, which made Su Xia a little confused.

He gently put down the glass bottle, wiped the sea water on his body casually, then took off his gloves, and returned to the seat in front with the scroll.

Su Xia turned on the light on the top, and the submarine cockpit brightened up a lot.

He slowly opened the letter and began to read.

[Item: Prince's Letter]

【At two o'clock in the morning, the watertight compartments of the cruise ship began to flood with water. The ship was doomed to sink. I didn't expect my journey of freedom to end here.】

【…】

【Latecomers, when you read this letter, I should be dead】

【I am the prince of the Iris Empire and the next monarch, the one who is destined to wait for the throne of the kingdom】

[But I am tired of the endless struggle and power, and I also hate the high palace throne]

【I don't want to lift that heavy sword of the empire】

【…】

Su Xia sat in her seat with a serious look and focused eyes, reading each line of text carefully.

In the letter, the prince expresses his distaste for power.

At that time, the Iris Flower Empire was in its heyday. He had a position of power envied by countless people, endless wealth to squander, countless beauties to choose from, and almost anything he wanted... But he felt like this Life is boring.

His ideal in life is to find a peaceful and peaceful place, meet a quiet and elegant lover, and live an ordinary life.

For his ideal, he finally acted, took away the sword of power and a little money, escaped from the palace, and started this journey of freedom.

"A little money?"

Su Xia's eyelids trembled, and she couldn't help but look back at the storage compartment at the back. Seeing the boxes of shining gold coins, she didn't know what to say.
