Azur Lane: I Crossed the Graduation Port Area

Chapter 1091: Kill the demon who took advantage of the situation.
Admiral Jiuhai's order was tantamount to an imperial edict issued by the emperor to the local magistrates of the Natlan court.

When Lin Lan saw that Zhao Guangrong had completely obeyed his orders, he signaled the three Spark Column monks to stay in the county government office and cooperate with the officials here in planning and deploying the city abandonment order.

Regarding his arrangement, the three members of the Spark Column immediately agreed.

Seeing the two Bei Lian ship girls accompanying him, they had already guessed that Lin Lan was the commander the Bei Lian ship girls were looking for.

Lin Lan also learned from Ji Meng on the way to the county government that one of the main responsibilities of the Spark Column after its establishment was to help Beilian and Donghuang Ship Girls find his traces.

After this introspection, he introduced his identity to the members of the Spark Column.

Once the city abandonment order was confirmed, the original curfew in Changliu County was immediately invalidated by Zhao Guangrong.

Knowing that the crisis is coming, every minute and second of the next three days cannot be wasted.

After Natlan officers and soldiers were dispatched urgently, the news of the abandonment order was conveyed to all streets in the town.

In less than half an hour, the entire town recovered from its original tranquility at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Of course, Lin Lan was not idle during this period.

He took the three ship girls to the county government hall, and threw a large bag of high-grade spiritual stones out of the Sumeru Ring in front of a group of officials and elders of two sects in the Alchemy Realm.

"In three days, I want to see a fleet of flying spiritual weapons that can accommodate all the refugees inside and outside the town."

Lin Lan glanced around at the Natlan people in the lobby who were shocked by the large bag of high-grade spiritual stones, and said in a deep voice:
"Whether you are purchasing finished products from the Yin Sect or purchasing materials for forging, you can report to me if you have any difficulties."

Hearing his arrogant words, the hunchbacked white-haired Elder Su of the Molten Fire Sect hesitated for a moment and took the initiative to offer him a hand:

"Admiral Jiuhai, all the disciples of our sect in the county are good blacksmiths.

"If we just build a class windboat, I can guarantee that as long as there are enough materials, ten boats can be forged in three days."

After the elder of Molten Fire Sect finished speaking, Changliu County's Commander-in-Chief of Danjie Realm frowned and said to Lin Lan:

"The officers and soldiers in the county will also assist the Molten Fire Sect disciples, but the problem is that the raw material for the wind boat is spiritual wood... Even if the entire inventory in the county warehouse is consumed, I am afraid that it will not be able to meet such a huge consumption."

However, the concerns raised by the commander-in-chief were dismissed by the Northern Alliance girl Tashkent, who waved her hand and said calmly:
"Mobilize the common people and casual cultivators in the county to cut down the dense forest in Qingchuan in the south of the county. Just leave this matter to the Spark Column."

Hearing this, the three monks from the Spark Column all expressed their duty to do so.

Mobilizing the power of the masses to overcome difficulties together is one of the required courses for the Spark Column.

After solving the problem of materials for building a wind boat, the next thing to solve is the unified allocation of materials and itinerary planning.

Starting from Changliu County to Dongzhou, you must pass through the uninhabited Yunze Wetland.

Even Lin Lan knew from the information provided by the explorers that this wetland swamp was one of the most dangerous places in Natland.

Unlike the wetlands and swamps of Blue Star, there is almost no place for mortals to stay in the Yunze Wetland.

Putting aside the poisonous miasma, the monsters and poisonous insects hidden in the reeds and plants that are taller than humans are enough to scare away the Natlan people below the foundation level.

In other words, once they enter it, they will no longer be able to obtain supplies through any channels before passing through this large wetland.

After all, as far as he knew, the demon tribes in the Great Wetland were extremely xenophobic, so it was the best situation not to take the opportunity to attack them.

In the end, the county magistrate Zhao Guangrong applied to be personally responsible for the allocation of supplies after the Fengzhou fleet set off.

With a large number of high-grade spiritual stones provided by Lin Lan, the county magistrate said that he could fully recover the grain from all the squire.

"Tsk, I really gave those greedy guys an advantage. If we were in Beizhou..."

Feng Meng originally frowned and wanted to say something, but was held back by Tashkent.

"Don't forget what sister Aurora said about special treatment during special times. When the Great Wall Guards go south in the future, none of those moths will be able to escape, and they will all be liquidated."

Hearing Tashkent's whisper, Feng Meng still sighed with dissatisfaction.

And Lin Lan naturally heard the conversation between his two Beilian shipmates.

He looked at the magistrate of Changliu County and added in a cold voice: "If you encounter a landlord or squire who takes advantage of the opportunity to drive up food prices, just kill them directly. There is no need to report to me to waste time."

"I, I understand."

Seeing Zhao Guangrong's helpless expression with a ruthless look in his eyes, Lin Lan understood that the county magistrate already knew what to do.

There are always some people who dare to make war fortune after the city abandonment order is activated.

On a normal day, the county magistrate might have had to coddle the group of landlords and squires.

But as long as he is in Changliu County, Zhao Guangrong and the county officials will never dare to reminisce about their old friendship and join in the troubles with those guys and make profits from them.

As for the first supply point after the fleet set off, it was initially decided to be in Juzhen County in the south of the Yunze Wetland after discussions between the Spark Column, the Changliu County Commander-in-Chief, and Elder Su.

But Qu Liuxia, the elder of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, put forward a different opinion.

"If we take the official road, Juzhen County is undoubtedly the best choice, but have you forgotten the current situation? How can we still be allowed to take the official road as a detour?"

Seeing Lin Lan looking at her, Qu Liuxia took out a map from Xumijie and unfolded it.

“Since Lord Admiral Jiuhai has decided to take the victims to Dongzhou as quickly as possible, there is no need to take the relatively safe official route.

"With the protection of your Nascent Soul realm, I suggest that we go directly across the Yunze Wetland and head straight to Yunze County."

Before Lin Lan could express his opinion, Elder Su of Molten Fire Sect suddenly exclaimed in anger:
"Qu Liuxia! Are you crazy?!"

“I know that you, the Poison Cultivator of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, have always been in close contact with the demon clan in the Yunze Great Wetland.

“But you have to understand that this matter concerns the entire Changliu County and even the lives of tens of thousands of Nanzhou people gathered in the surrounding area!

"How can you guarantee that those demon clans will not attack us? We will probably fly directly over the territory of those demon clans. Have you forgotten that the last time the Yunze Secret Realm was opened..."

Before the white-haired elder could finish settling old accounts, Lin Lan's cold voice interrupted him:
"As she said, we will cross the Yunze Wetland and go straight to Yunze City.

"Kill the demon who takes advantage of the situation."

When these words with murderous intent came to light, the entire county government office was instantly silent.

No one questioned him. The intimidation he just showed told everyone that his words were no exaggeration.
The strength of the Nascent Soul Realm alone is enough to intimidate any demon tribe.

What's more, they are accompanied by so many masters of the Core Formation Realm. This kind of combat power is definitely more than enough to destroy a demon tribe.

The smart monsters are not fools, and they don't need to risk annihilation to attack their windboat fleet.

"I didn't think it through well. Please don't take offense to Admiral Jiuhai."

Seeing the Molten Sect elder's sincere apology, Lin Lan just waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care about these details.

But after Lin Lan thought for a moment, he looked at Qu Liuxia and made arrangements:
"Elder Qu, you will lead the Ten Thousand Poison Sect disciples to set off tonight and announce to the demon tribes along the way that the disaster of evil cultivators is coming.

“If they are willing to accompany us to Dongzhou, we can prepare them in the tribe.

"If there is a stubborn tribe, you don't need to stay, go directly to the next tribe that the wind boat passes."

Having said this, Lin Lan paused and revealed his true purpose:

“But remember one thing, if you find a large-scale evil cultivator and the earth covered in black, immediately turn around and return to inform us.

"That is the source of the disaster of evil cultivators, the enemy of survival that we must avoid."

Listening to Lin Lan's tone becoming extremely serious at the end, Qu Liuxia also realized the weight of her responsibilities.

"My daughter and the disciples of my sect will definitely fulfill their mission."

The poison cultivator elder of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect raised his hands to Lin Lan and said with determination in his tone.
