The east coast of Jinxia City is crowded with people.
After the ban was lifted, residents flocked to the east of the city to witness
this once-in-a-century "big scene."
Except for the three pirate ships that sank on the spot, the remaining two
Tier 4 ships, six brigs and two capital ships of the Imperial Navy were all
blocked by ice and slowly towed to the shore.
Not long ago, they were bombarding the Jinxia city district with great
strength, and now they have all become seizures after the war.
"This boat is really big enough, I don't know if it will be useful for
fishing."
"That's definitely not easy to use, such a high side, the net will have to
drag for a long time!"
"Look at those two boats. They are more powerful than those used by the
pirates last time. The tails are painted with gold paint, and there are
statues hanging in front. Isn't it affordable for ordinary people?"
"What about the prestige? The princess and Master Xia have not cleaned up!"
Everyone talked a lot, and the atmosphere was quite high.
As long as there is no loss of self-interest, victory will always be a topic
that the people talk about.
The two of the residents of Jinxia were standing on the east city wall at this
moment, looking at the battlefield after being cleared.
"His Royal Highness, the reports of all the teams have been sent." Staff He
walked quickly, before he stopped completely, and began to report. "There are
more than 2,100 surrenders, of which the two large ships account for 800. , I
have separated them. Ninety-seven elves were rescued, and they were handed
over to the tree boat for resettlement. The number of dead enemies is
difficult to count. Many corpses fell into the sea, but there are also a
thousand. Many people, and most of them are pirates."
"What about our loss?" Ning Wanjun asked.
"Eighty-six people died in the war, and the tree boats accounted for 35." He
Guicai replied quickly. "The resistance on the pirate side was more intense.
When suppressing them, many brothers were sacrificed."
"Make statistics on the names of these people, and make arrangements for
pensions, home visits and family members as soon as possible. Don't miss
them."
"Yes, leave it to the minister." He changed the topic. "There are also a few
prisoners with special status, saying that they want to see your Royal
Highness. They said that they have surrendered and hope to get the
corresponding prison treatment."
Ning Wanjun sneered, "Don't they understand that the defeated don't have any
qualifications? Throw these people in jail for a while, if they are served
with the whip of the protesters."
"The minister understands." He Guicai quit.
After the other party left, Ning Wanjun looked at Xia Fan, "What do you think
of these prisoners?"
"Pirates are basically habitual offenders who kill people and make money.
According to the old rules, send them to the Baisha Mine to play their last
point." Xia Fan thought about it. "As for the sailors, gunners and others on
the Natalein flagship are all technical personnel , You can decide how to deal
with it after the trial."
"Yes, I think so too." The princess said briskly. "I used to think that the
sea is a difficult area for Jinxia. Now with this opportunity, I might be able
to pull out a fleet that can be used for combat."
"The Navy costs money."
"You have to think of a solution for the money problem, don't you?"
Xia Fan was dumb.
"Huh." Chi, who had been holding his chest and silent before, suddenly said,
"If I hadn't taken a shot, they wouldn't have surrendered so quickly. Xia Fan,
you should remember your promise, right?"
"Promise?" Ning Wanjun frowned slightly, "What did you promise?"
"Don't worry," Xia Fan coughed twice, "In a week, the whole city will know
that the dragon is protecting Jinxia, and your name will pass to every
resident. But..."
"But what?" Blazing eyes flicked.
"You have to cooperate with the Propaganda Department to participate in some
activities and appear in front of the public with a cordial and pleasant
posture. Only in this way can you further strengthen the propaganda effect and
you can also gain more people's love."
"I understand. Just like a sacrifice ceremony, show yourself in front of
everyone, right?" Chi was calm and composed on the surface, but he had already
thought about it in his heart. It was a scene where the ancestors were the
protagonists only seen in history books-whizzing through the low air,
accepting the cheers of thousands of residents, and the streets and alleys
shouting the real name of the dragon. Unexpectedly, her goal of recreating the
glory of her ancestors would become a reality so soon.
The revival of Penglai is just around the corner!
After getting a satisfactory answer, the dragon girl left the city wall with
her head high.
"So this is it?" Ning Wanjun covered her mouth and whispered, "I thought you
had sold out Jinxia's benefits in exchange for the other party's help."
"His Royal Highness...you think too much." Xia Fan rolled his eyes, "She has
always been here, and the benefits for her are the same as making Jinxia
profit."
"That's not necessarily." The princess shrugged.
"such as?"
"For example, yourself." Ning Wanjun glanced at him, "If the other party hits
you on the head, it will be a real loss for Jin Xia."
What? Xia Fan was startled slightly. Is he now a fixed asset of Jinxiacheng?
At this moment, there was a sudden noise in the crowd.
"Look at the sea!"
"What's that? An island?"
"No...that's the new boat!"
Xia Fan and Ning Wanjun looked towards the east, only to see a touch of
emerald green figure, just emerging from the end of the sea horizon.
...
The Silver Star Tree Boat did not encounter any resistance.
With Noah as a successful precedent, the residents of the island were actually
rescued by Jinxia reinforcements, and going to the mainland city seemed to be
their best choice.
As the only survivor of the original elder’s home, Zhuo Fulan took over as the
head of the patriarch. Although she was still young, she was guided and
directed by the High Priest of Sania. Xia Fan was not worried about the
integration of New Shuzhou and Jinxia City. .
After the elves were rescued, hundreds of fighters took the green shuttle and
launched a raid on the warships left behind by the empire. With the strong
support of Luo Qing and Yan Qing, the enemy surrendered before they could hold
on. As for the pirates, the situation was not good. , The sail turned around
in the first place, and there was no meaning to fight to the end. After all,
the latter was not equipped with a ship mage, and basically could not come up
with any countermeasures in the face of Olena's dive, and there would only be
a dead end without fleeing.
In the warm mansion of Fengyang Villa ~www.mtlnovel.com~, he stroked Li's
fluffy tail, and listened to her all the experiences on the other front.
Although the general result has been known in advance through the audio-visual
instrument, the result is obviously not as detailed as the person's self-
report.
Especially when he heard the part about dealing with demons, Xia Fan really
squeezed a cold sweat for Li and the others.
"Using the soul to directly summon demons... Does the Privy Council have such
an alchemy?"
"Aunt Yan said no," Li shook his head. "They only use soul gathering charms to
strengthen evil spirits, and they are usually only used for alchemist
training. It is not that the strength is poor, but since the eternal reign,
the Privy Council has classified this type of alchemy. Forbidden. The reason
is that evil spirits and living beings are innately opposed to each other, and
those who are agitated should not use the power of chaos for their own use at
any time, otherwise it will be a matter of backlash.
Judging from the fate of the female mage, it happened to confirm this view.
However, Xia Fan noticed other details.
For example, when the opponent casts a spell, the "gate of hell" that looks
like a crack.
