Creator's Steam Fairy

Dover needs people to clean up those disgusting barnacles underwater, and White Castle has to pass through the range controlled by the Zambian army-just in time to sell those spoils to the Zobians.

When I go back, I fly slower, maybe I can make up for the fuel money.

The sailors dispersed in a rush, and quickly brought back everything around them, according to 'wash it and sell it', 'need some repairs to sell it', 'materials that can be used directly, metals worth recycling' and 'garbage 'The classification method stacks all the loot in the wide 'river' in different categories.

The navy affiliated to Dover quickly dispersed nearly a hundred prisoners and caught up with a dozen light airships coming from the sea.

Unlike White Castle, who came 'drop in', and really dropped by the sea fortress in the east of this place - Dover will continue to sail south, so they have to rush back.

"Warrant Officer [-]st Forrest?"

Forrest, who was about to board the airship, was stopped by an officer, "You are temporarily seconded, please come with me."

Secondment?Seconded again?

After graduating from the Naval Academy, he worked on a destroyer for several years. When he was about to become a full-fledged officer, he was seconded to the Naval Intelligence Department—everything started from scratch. Now that he has enough qualifications, he was seconded again?

All his former classmates... Behind him came the undisguised wild laughter of those former friends.

Forrest wanted to throw the hat on his head to the ground and breathe out the fragrance.

But he was dressed in civilian clothes, which prevented the drama of an oppressed and angry subordinate.

The next time he wears a military uniform, he'll be sure to throw his hat in the faces of these officers.

"Come on, Warrant Officer."

"Yes, sir. Come on, sir."

Forrest trotted along with the galloping officer and mounted his horse.Until passing through the battlefield, around the ridge, along a mountain road and walking a long way, came to a piece of gravel.

"Go, Warrant Officer, Colonel Cotton is waiting for you." The officer looked at Forrest who dismounted and saluted, and made a point, "No matter what opinion you have, it's best not to write it on your face."

He nodded to Forrest, pulled the rein and turned the horse back the way it had come.

It seemed that Colonel Cotton was not easy to get along with. Forrest straightened his clothes from top to bottom, carefully smoothed out the wrinkles of the cuffs, and walked forward with a serious face.

Fortunately, he took the time to shave before getting off the airship.

Before he got close, he heard a burst of laughing and complimenting each other, and he felt bored for a while, and quickly tightened his face, walked forward a few steps, and saluted the report without looking sideways.

"I always learn a lot from talking to young people."

His white hair was combed meticulously. Colonel Cotton had a benign smile on his face. After hearing Forrest's voice, he turned his eyes slightly to Forrest. Glancing at him, he turned his gaze back and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I still have some annoying mundane matters to deal with. I heard that Mr. Hillman is familiar with you, so I presumptuously asked him to take care of your itinerary... Please forgive my faux pas."

The most embarrassing thing is that there are no female soldiers in the navy...Compared to the fact that more and more women are serving as civilians and even participating in combat in the army, the navy does not even have a single female civilian based on some past superstitions.To be able to find an acquaintance for this Countess who mobilized countless people... He tried his best.

Colonel Cotton felt that these broken rules should be changed-at least the sloppy male nurses should be replaced.

He turned to Forrest, handed out a warrant, and told him to take care of several young ladies.

The old man looked to be in his early sixties, but he was more energetic than him... Forrest was so goosebumped by that look, he honestly regarded himself as a wooden stake or something , After they finished their farewells and the colonel and other officers left, they became slack under Luria's smiling eyes, and the whole person visibly became decadent.

"Forrest, we meet again. I didn't expect you to be a..."

Forrest took off his hat to pay tribute, and imitated Loria, rolled his eyes and said: "I didn't expect that I could pick up a countess in the wilderness, and I have the nerve to trick me into eating chocolate."

Loria replied with a sincere face: "I only found out today that I still have such a title. Can I get the money?"

"Do you want to consider working for the Naval Intelligence Service?" Forrest also put on a serious face. He will never be deceived by this little girl again. "You can't receive money, and you have to pay taxes depending on the situation."

Hey!

Loria groaned.

She had an ominous feeling.

The scriptures have said that when good things happen from heaven, one must be careful about the disasters that follow.

Only then did Forrest nod to the other three, and after exchanging pleasantries with Joanna, he said, "The terrain here is good, I'll contact the airship now."

He waved goodbye and glanced at Joanna, who was about his age.

Chapter 66 The Hillman Love Story

Here he is, here he is again.

Loria leaned against the window and looked down.

On the grass under the tower, Mr. Forrest was wearing a brand-new dark blue military uniform with a flower in his hand, and he even got a decorative saber from somewhere.He didn't wear a hat, and he probably didn't have time to find a suitable one. He stood up very straight, and stretched his legs to look at his shiny black leather shoes from time to time.

What a show.

She has basically zero love experience, and Luria, who has only read a few old love novels, is lying on the window sill and observing with great interest.

The affairs officer of White Castle very generously cleaned out a whole secluded high tower and lent it to them to live in. Although there were only simple furnishings and the most basic furniture, it could be seen that the daily necessities including bed sheets were brand new ...Even Joanna's mechanical monster named 'Gecko MK2' was transported up and properly settled.

Although there are military secrets here, idlers are not allowed to enter there, and many places are not allowed to go, but White Castle did give them quite preferential treatment, even the meals delivered every day have fresh vegetables.

Although White Castle has a large fleet of cargo airships to replenish supplies regularly, fresh vegetables are still very precious in this large sky fortress.

As for the poor, the defender of the holy religion who left a painful memory for Miss Loria, she happily disassembled her after a simple farewell ceremony.

According to Alice, Joanna is a very experienced mechanic, and she judged that the defenders of the Holy Cult are hopeless—Brittania does not produce related accessories, and the cost of repairs even exceeds the original price.

Although a large sum of money has been wasted, at least there is no need to worry about brain damage.

Luria thought about it again... She was still very angry, so a little capture would not make up for the loss at all.

But the captive who was brought up together didn't know who was behind the scenes—judging from her fear of death, she probably wasn't lying.

The White Castle was slowly floating in the low sky. Except for the strong wind, since boarding the White Castle yesterday morning until now, Loria has not felt anything unusual.

The famous Sky Fortress will inevitably be a bit boring to watch for a long time, especially when it moves slowly to save fuel.

On the way here, he heard a few words from Forrest that this fort has been contested by the army and navy of Brittania. Whether it is in the water or in the sky, the "ship" should be under their control.

Luo Liya is not interested in these things, but she wants to see how this huge fortress flies into the sky... I heard that the secret is hidden under the main fortress.

It's a pity that not to mention her fake Countess, even the Earl Rivers who came out of nowhere can't get in touch with such core secrets.

Another gust of wind ruffled her hair.Luria hurriedly calmed the pink hair, then tied up her hair, only to notice that Forrest's shiny hair remained motionless in the wind.

Is this a full three-quarter ounce bottle of hair oil?

Like wearing a waxed helmet.

Loria pressed down and threw something down to try the idea of ​​Mr. Forrest's hair defense.

Her windows faced the extension of the White Fort, and she could clearly see the three-story city wall from high to low and the artillery, gatehouses, and patrolling soldiers on it.

And if she wanted to see the castle, she would go to Alice's room on the other side of the tower.

They can't stay here for too long, Joanna explained, they will be put on the outskirts of the wilderness, to meet with the support team sent by the Naturalist Society, and then discuss the next step of the itinerary.

Although she wanted to ask Joanna a lot, the aunt seemed to be resistant to getting close to them, and the room wasn't even on one floor—they were on the top floor, and Joanna was on the bottom.

Moreover, she always felt that Joanna looked familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere before.

Oh, Luria poked her head out again, because the heroine appeared.

Still wearing a long dress, the tall Joanna walked towards Forrest who was waiting not far away.

They were not close, and the wind was a bit strong. Miss Fenmao, who couldn't hear what they were saying, almost leaned out of the window with half of her body.

I don't know what they were talking about, Loria thought, and saw Mr. Forrest scratching his head in embarrassment and applying oil.

And Joanna waved her hands as if refusing something.

A mechanical owl flew to Luria's window, Miss Pink Hair smiled shyly, let the window out, and let it fly onto the table.

Luria, who couldn't see the excitement, had to sit at the table and stare silently with the owl—there was a clicking sound from its eyes, and the metal plate adjusted its position, as if it was blinking.

For no reason, Loria thought the owl was watching her.

She stretched out her hand to touch its head. It didn't have the soft touch of a small animal at all. The cold feeling of touching it made Luria feel a little sad for it.

Do machines crave life?

She scratched the owl's belly again, and found that it didn't respond, it just kept adjusting its short and fat body, as if it had to see her face clearly before giving up.

When Loria turned around, the owl flew to her bed, its eyes clicked again, and it 'looked' at her with the pupils made of clear crystal.

It's just for fun, why not keep a close eye on her like this?

Miss Loria childishly rolled her eyes at the lifeless machine, only to see the owl suddenly spread its slender metal wings and flap it.

As if expressing happiness?

Like to see her roll her eyes?

Thinking of this, Miss Loria couldn't help but rolled her eyes again.

Sure enough, the sick machine flapped its wings again, and even shook its short and fat body joltingly, as if it was dancing.

ah!Aunt Joanna was just too much.

Poor Mr. Forrester, does he know that the lady he is talking to is trying to control a round-faced fat chicken to dance?

The funny look of the owl soon made Loria laugh.

She laughed and played with the owl.

Joanna, who got rid of Forrest, hurried back to the room. She really couldn't understand why the warrant officer could shake like that when he invited someone for a walk—she refused the invitation without hesitation, because there was a very important matter at the moment. .

"Teacher, are you still there, teacher?"

Joanna sat at the desk and fiddled with a checkerboard-sized device. The crystal tubes were filled with glowing liquids—light blues, greens, and purples.

She was having an important conversation, and she didn't intend to go out to meet the warrant officer, but after a little mention, she was kicked out by the person she was talking to.

Unable to get a response, she adjusted the knob, and the saucer-sized metal disc at the center of the device released more steam. She asked again: "Teacher? Are you still there?"

"Um……"

It took another half a minute before the device in front of Joanna made intermittent noises, and she seemed to hear the sound of a girl laughing in the background.

"I...things, I can't help it...very good...let's do this first."

The sound quality is getting worse and worse, and eventually there is only a noise.

Joanna looked at the exhausted Leia crystal on the crystal tank suspiciously. Although using the magic communication device over a long distance consumes a lot of energy, she has just replaced the crystal.

And the teacher... Joanna was very puzzled. It took only a few minutes for her to run out and come back. Why did the teacher look absent-minded, and her tone seemed very happy?

Chapter 67

The round-faced fat chicken lay down, motionless.

It seemed that Aunt Joanna didn't want to make her happy any more. Loria pouted and picked up the small and heavy mechanical fat chicken, thinking that she would buy one herself in the future and let Abby control it to play with her.

After playing with the mechanical owl for a while, she tapped on her little leather shoes and ran downstairs, knocking on Joanna's door.

"Huh? My owl, why are you there?"

"It likes me so much that it came to play with me." Loria resisted the urge to roll her eyes and said, "Aunt Joanna, why don't you invite me in?"

"You are such a polite little cutie." Joanna twitched the corner of her mouth and let Loria into the room and said, "Can't you call me sister?"

Hearing this, Loria stared at Joanna suspiciously for a while, then pointed to herself and said: "15 years old." Then pointed to Joanna and said: "30 years old."

Of course, at this time, Luria's age cannot be judged by her date of birth, otherwise she would have to talk about the longevity of gods and mortals.

Iris told her that a thousand years is just a flick of a finger, and to them, it is far less than a mortal's one-year-old.

"Okay, you can call it whatever you like, but don't hurt me with such innocent and harmless eyes." Joanna raised her head and took a deep breath, looking at the troublesome young girl in front of her... To a large extent, it just looks immature on the outside, and he sighed helplessly.

You can't be honest with kids.

"We will reach the border of the wilderness tomorrow. If you still want to see the White Castle again, you can go to the affairs officer and ask him to take you to the patrol airship on duty and take a circle around the periphery."

Joanna folded the checkerboard-sized device on the table, and it became the size of a thick book. She flipped a switch, and the turntable holding a ball in the center rotated counterclockwise to lock the ball back. The crystal tubes that emitted beautiful brilliance were also extinguished, and she continued: "I know you have many things to ask, but I may not be able to answer them."

"There's nothing to see here. If you don't show the secrets inside, it's just a castle flying in the sky."

It was amazing when I first saw it, but I got tired of watching too much.Loria stepped on her little shoes and approached Joanna, and said with a wicked smile, "You can definitely answer what I want to ask."

Joanna consciously avoided Loria, who was too close to her, and kept a considerable distance from the pink-haired girl. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Oh? What do you want to ask? I really don't know how to shoot lasers, nor can I Transform myself into a machine, I will eat like you, and I will not sneak up in the middle of the night to drink fuel. I am just an ordinary human being, an ordinary mechanic."

She recalled the scene of little pink hair pestering her childishly yesterday.

Sure enough, the initial impression was very accurate, this is an overly capricious and difficult lady.

"You...you and Mr. Forrest." Loria winked at Joanna and asked, "When will the baby be born? Can you let me go and see?"
