Mystery: Shadow of Order - Chapter 256
In Pritz Harbor, more than ten nautical miles away from Oak Island, four huge ships cut through the heavy waves and drove forward at a speed of 11 knots, and they were still increasing their speed.
These are two iron-clad wood-hulled ships with teak hulls. There is iron armor with a thickness of more than 100 mm in key places such as the deck, and iron armor of about 50 mm in other positions. The front and rear of the hull are covered with thirty-six breech guns of different calibers and 16 rapid-fire guns.
But these two behemoths are just frigates, and they collectively surround a ship, which is slightly larger than the four frigates, and there is hardly much difference in appearance. But everyone on the frigate knows that if it is a naval battle, the frigate will definitely sink to the bottom of the sea first.
Because that ship is not an iron-clad wood-hulled ship, but a real iron-clad ship. The thickness of the armor alone reaches 457 mm. The artillery of the two is not too different, but the iron-clad ship can completely attack with its own thick armor. , use the four 356mm torpedo tubes to sink the frigate.
This is the Pritz, the Loen Kingdom, no, it is the first ironclad ship in the world. With it, the Loen Kingdom can dominate the sea.
2 nautical miles away from the Pritz, two battleships were also advancing along the route. They and the four frigates, the three battleships swaying in the rear, and the ironclad Pritz formed the first ironclad ship of the Loen Kingdom. fleet.
This is the first time this fleet has conducted voyage training, and it will sail all the way to Tuscat Island, the easternmost territory of the Loen Kingdom. Of course, if it encounters pirates, even the seven pirate generals at sea, or even the four pirate kings, this ironclad fleet will sink them without hesitation.
In a room on the battleship on the left, Rawls was lying on the bed, his face was pale, his lips were bloodless, the black military boots were thrown beside the bed, and a red army was still hanging on one side of the wall. Dress and Ribbon.
He squinted his eyes, pouted his mouth from time to time, and could see the extreme squirming in his throat, and there was a trash can beside the bed. A few minutes later, Rawls’s complexion improved significantly, but his expression seemed to be more uncomfortable.
He stretched out his hand, and took out a dusty purse from under the pillow beside him, and within ten seconds of holding it in his hand, his face turned pale again, and a strong sense of dizziness caused him to see things in front of him. There are double images, and the food in the stomach seems to be going upstream because of the strong stimulation.
Rawls hurriedly tucked the purse back under the pillow, half-squatted down skillfully, and aimed his mouth at the trash can…
Well, he’s seasick! Just belong to the controllable seasickness.
After killing “Psychiatrist” Stephen Mossos last time, he obtained an extraordinary item, which was a collar button from a “Raging People”, which could greatly increase the wearer’s strength, and also A layer of magic scales can be generated on the body surface to withstand certain damage, allowing the wearer to move freely underwater for more than half an hour.
But it also has negative effects, which Rawls cannot avoid, that is, seasickness. As long as he is on the boat, he will feel dizzy and nauseated, lose his balance, and even lose his resistance.
Before setting off, in order to avoid trouble, Rawls threw the revolver, the “Stand of Power”, including the collar button into the purse, but he forgot that the negative effects would affect him through the purse, and even more To be precise, he never thought that the negative side of the collar could affect him.
And in order not to be seen as abnormal, he couldn’t immediately become seasick. He could only temporarily separate the money bag from himself after entering the single room specially prepared for him, but he had to touch it from time to time. , let yourself enter the state of seasickness again.
“dong dong dong”
“Please come in.”
The door was pushed open, and a man in his mid-thirties in a dark blue navy uniform came in. He had a hairline that was much better than most Loen men and a skin tone that was slightly darker than bronze. It made him look a little like the Southern Continent race, but the three-dimensional facial features showed that this was just a tanned Loen man.
He was the captain of the battleship HMS Glory and a friend and classmate of Philip Negan, Colonel Derin Hacker. Although Rawls, who was half lying on the bed, could feel the huge shaking, the colonel didn’t seem to be affected.
With a smile at the corner of his mouth, Delin Hacker stood straight with his arms around his chest, and his gray-blue eyes looked at Rawls’ slightly pale face:
“Did Philip not consider your seasickness when he arranged your identity?”
“I don’t think he knew that I was seasick, because I didn’t know it myself.” Rawls didn’t need to perform, as long as he lowered his voice a little, the whole person seemed weak.
Delin Hacker shook his head and said with a smile:
“Mr. Barrister, if you can’t get used to life on board, then it’s very difficult for you to get out of this room, and my soldiers will not believe that a marine officer can get seasick.”
Colonel Dering knew Rolls’ identity, but he didn’t know why he chose to take this battleship, nor the purpose of his trip. But as Philip’s friend and classmate, Mr. Colonel didn’t want to know too much.
Thinking of the identity Philip gave him, Rawls glanced across the red military dress on the wall, and his pale face was a little helpless. He is now a captain of the Royal Marines and has urgent military affairs to deal with, so he took the Glory. battleship.
The Marine Corps has a long history, first serving as gunners or supply personnel on naval ships, but in the battle with Feneport more than three hundred years ago, two thousand Marines were supported by naval guns. After holding the fortress for nearly a year, it was completely transformed into an amphibious force and played a huge role in the opening of the new waterway. Although the Marine Corps is part of the Royal Navy, their uniforms are not blue, but red, but it is said that there are changes to be made. Because a certain marine corps suffered heavy losses due to bright clothes when attacking a tribe hiding in the forest in the southern continent.
It is precisely because of the special relationship between the Marine Corps and the Royal Navy that Rawls boarded the Glory as a captain of the Marine Corps and would not be suspected by the rest.
“I think it should be fine in two days, and I can feel better than before.”
“That’s when you’ve vomited.” Colonel Delin held his wider chin. “However, once you get used to vomiting, you won’t get seasick.”
“You don’t want to leave this room for the next two days. I’ll bring you meals. Although I don’t know what task Philip gave you, but from his arrangement, it will definitely cause big trouble if it leaks out. Rest well, I still have work to do.”
After speaking, Delin Hacker ignored Rawls’s answer, turned around and pushed the door to leave, slamming the door shut.
Rawls shook his head, that’s fine, he doesn’t need to touch the purse often, making himself more uncomfortable.
…
On the Pritzker, in the captain’s room.
A man in a tuxedo and a ruby red tie is sitting behind a desk. He has a broad face and a thick beard, but he doesn’t take care of it much. He looks messy and shiny, and a pair of copper bell-like eyes stares at him. The man opposite, with his strong and strong arms propped up on the desk, was full of oppression even though he was sitting.
Opposite him stood a middle-aged man wearing a rear admiral uniform with slightly rough features. He was the captain of the Pritzker, Rear Admiral Wilson. But at this moment, he lowered his head and dared not look at the man sitting in his seat. Although he was the captain himself, he was not the real master of the fleet.
It was the man who sat in his place. He was the former Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, the cousin of the previous King William Augustus “The Strong”, and the Marquis of Pablo Connery, although he had already stepped down as Commander-in-Chief Sixteen. Years, even his title has been passed on to his son.
Major General Wilson, who was a Sequence 5 “Knight of Punishment”, knew that the man in front of him was a demigod, a Sequence 4 “Law Mage”, and he was the real commander of this iron armored fleet.
“Wilson, this time it’s not just about voyage training, but also needs to make those pirates realize the power of ironclad ships. MI9 is already collecting the corresponding targets, unless they encounter those four guys who are arrogant and king, the rest, even if they are I won’t take action against pirates who call themselves generals, do you understand what I mean?”
“Understood, Your Excellency.” Wilson stomped his right foot and gave a military salute.
“Very well, you go down!”
Pablo waved his stout arm and let Wilson leave the captain’s room.
The iron door closed, and a figure appeared in the room.
He has a rectangular face with a white hair cap on his head, a beard that is slightly upturned at the end of his mouth, bushy eyebrows, and large eyes, which are somewhat similar to the characters on playing cards. Dressed in a formal dress, a cloak, and extremely long toes, the dress is out of touch with the current era, like living in the last hundred years.
Pablo lost his previous strength, stood up from behind the desk, and greeted the figure:
“Your Highness.”
The person who came was the Prince of Sunia from the Loen Kingdom, Grove Augustus. His eyes seemed to pass through the iron gate and the wall, and he saw Major General Wilson who was leaving.
“Is he really fit to be the captain of the Pritz?”
“In terms of strength, he is a Sequence 5’s ‘Knight of Retribution’, very suitable. It’s just not tough enough, but if you want to truly master this fleet, someone like him is the most suitable candidate.”
Pablo’s gleaming beard was shaking, and his two hands were on the desk. Although he was facing Prince Grove of Sequence 3 “Chaos Hunter”, he also showed enough strength.
Prince Grove tilted his head slightly. Pablo’s strength was similar to that of the previous King William VI, but he was more reckless.
“Give up the search for those pirate generals. I have asked MI9 to give up the related tasks. We can’t take risks. Now that is the most important thing.”
As the Prince of Sunia in the Loen Kingdom, Grove knew the pirate generals very well. Even though they were not demigods, they all had various such backgrounds. Although destroying them will not affect Loen, for that matter, no extra risk has been increased.
Pablo’s face showed dissatisfaction, and he punched the desk with his right hand:
“Then find Lieutenant General Dusk. Behind him is the Church of God of War. It’s good for us to attack them.”
Prince Grove was silent for a while and nodded. As the commander of this fleet, Pablo had a certain degree of freedom. Although doing so may lead to the “King of the Five Seas” Nast Solomon who held the pirate conference, he can also give him a heavy blow, which can be regarded as a preparation for the fleet. with him.
What’s more, it would be very difficult for MI9 to find only one “Lieutenant General at Dusk” in the vast Sunia Sea, and they may not be able to meet them during this expedition training.
Seeing that Prince Grove agreed with his suggestion, Pablo was also relieved. If Prince Grove insisted, he had nothing to do. Although he is the cousin of William VI, he is not a member of the Augustus family after all. It is impossible to command MI9.
“Is there still no news from Edward Leto?”
“No.” Prince Grove shook his head. “He was not only hunted by Nast, but also by intelligence officers from various countries. Who knows which island he is hiding on?”
“Island?”
“As the former chief mate of the ‘Dark Emperor’, he will definitely hide at sea, and there is no place for him to survive on land! Now I suspect that he is hiding behind a black market businessman, but there are too many people behind them. It’s hard to find out.” “If we can’t catch him, can we only rely on luck and the fusion of that **** Extraordinary characteristic to track Nast?” Pablo’s messy beard shook like an angry lion.
“Connery!” Prince Grove no longer gave in, UU reading www.uukanshu.com turned to look at Pablo Connery, the cloak on his body seemed to be flying.
He has always hated seeing this guy with no aristocratic cultivation, and was even reluctant to confront him head-on. If it wasn’t for him to master the royal power within the navy, how could Prince Grove tolerate a Sequence 4 “law mage”. No wonder His Royal Highness Drinker would let him come. If Georgina came, I’m afraid I won’t have any right to speak.
If it weren’t for the lack of suitable candidates, people like Pablo Connery would have been sent back to the territory for retirement!
Pablo is not to be outdone, he needs full command of the fleet, not one sitting on his head. If a fleet has two voices, facing the “Dark Emperor” and facing Nast, they will definitely be caught, and that is the biggest mistake.
But this powerful former naval commander is not only facing Prince Sonia of Loen Kingdom, but also the “Frenzy Hunter” of Sequence 3. Without doing anything, he can suppress Pablo with just his momentum. .
Pablo Connery’s breathing became heavier and heavier, the veins and blood vessels on his neck burst out one by one, his glossy beard trembled as he clenched his teeth, he supported the desk with his hands, his body Leaning forward, the desk and the floor below squeaked.
Prince Grove’s upturned beard trembled slightly. He knew that the gap between the two would not be able to suppress Pablo to such a degree. Pablo did not resist, but just held on.
“Humph!” Groff snorted, and suddenly relaxed and Pablo nearly fell forward, then steadied again.
“George Negan has been arresting people recently, and there are people from the School of Life.”
