Struggle in the Steam Age

"I think it's better to go with the referee." Lawrence had just finished setting the tone when his adoptive father, Mr. Lambert, said. "Because I got the news that the referee has mobilized a powerful force this time, even including a paladin from the Church of God of God at the level of God's Domain. It is basically certain that the island whale can be completely wiped out."

"So if you can go there, at least there won't be too many problems in terms of safety." As a parent, Mr. Lambert naturally puts the safety of his children first, and will completely respect the safety of his children. angle to think about the problem. "Don't forget that you are now the lord, and the fate of too many people is involved in your body. So it is always a good thing to be more secure."

Mr. Lambert's words were agreed by many people present, but Nora put forward another point of view: "Of course, in this situation, preserving yourself is the most important thing, but I think going to Vieques Island to resist the sahuahua Human attack is not a big problem. At least from a security point of view, it is not too dangerous."

"But if you go to Vieques Island, you will have to rely on yourself. If you run into a sahuagin prince head-on, you will be in great trouble. At least according to the information I read before, those sahuagin princes have mastered The strongest of his powers is basically somewhere between a master and a hero, and I'm afraid—"

Mr. Lambert said with a worried face that he was really worried that his children would be harmed unnecessarily in this operation. After all, this is going out to help others, not guarding your own home. So there is no need to work hard for this matter. But he stopped before he could finish speaking. Because the aura of the little puppet sitting opposite him suddenly rose steadily, and didn't stop until the legendary peak.

"Uncle Lambert, I will always stay by my brother's side during this operation." The little doll floated in the air and said. "I believe that the sahuagin king should not be my opponent when he doesn't use the artifact. Even if he uses the artifact, I can guarantee to escape with my brother, so you really don't need to worry too much about safety."

"It would be great if that's the case." A smile appeared on Mr. Lambert's face. After letting go of his worries about his son, his conscience as a clergyman prevailed. "In this case, it would be better for you to go to Vieques Island, because compared with the referee, that island may need more support."

It is normal for Mr. Lambert to say this, because unlike most of the other islands in this sea area, Vieques Island is an overseas territory belonging to the White Eagle Federation, so in this area dominated by noble territories and imperial territories, it seems Rather special, even vaguely rejected by the surrounding in some respects.

For example, there are three islands that may be attacked this time, but almost all the main forces in Xingchenhai and its surrounding areas are concentrated on the other two islands where nobles are lords. The church and the local forces from the White Eagle Federation announced that they would go to Vieques Island for support.

However, because of the distance, neither the Republic of Xinzhou nor the White Eagle Federation can project much power in a short period of time. In this way, the island has no big problem with high-level supernatural beings, but ordinary fighters will naturally have Big gap. In order to protect the people on the island, the archon of the island chose to ask for help through the channel of the court.

"It's a good thing for us to go to support." At this time, Owen's deputy butler stood up and said, "But there is a small problem here. Ours is a standard earl's territory. If your Excellency the earl ignores the other two islands and goes to the rescue In the case of Vieques, I worry that the surrounding nobles may have some other opinion of us."

"Mr. Owen, you don't need to worry about this." Orens said with a smile and shook his hand after hearing the words of the deputy housekeeper. "I am indeed the Earl of the Holy Visby Empire now, but I am also a member of the White Eagle Federal Science Society and a recipient of the highest level of the Federation's Golden White Eagle Medal. So it is completely reasonable for me to support in this regard , even if those nobles feel uncomfortable, it is impossible for them to treat me differently because of this matter."

It makes sense for Lawrence to say this, because the nobles of the world are allowed to hold the nationality of multiple countries. Although there are no nobles in a republic like the White Eagle Federation, people like Lawrence who have won the highest level of medals are often regarded as equal to nobles. A very important principle of the nobles is to be loyal to the country.

Therefore, Lawrence's act of leading people to Vieques Island to provide support at this time is basically considered by the nobles to be an act full of aristocratic demeanor, serving the country, and an act recognized by the noble class. Therefore, it will not cause large-scale dissatisfaction or even be expelled from the social circle of nobles.

The reason why Owen's deputy butler didn't quite understand this place was because he was not a traditionally trained professional butler, but a former core superhuman guard of the Sauer family. Although he completed the task in a battle, he was severely injured and completely cut off the possibility of continuing to be strong in terms of extraordinary power, so he was appointed by the previous Earl Sauer as the deputy butler to manage part of the family's general affairs. It is normal to not understand some things.

Now that the decision to rescue Vieques Island has been made, more preparatory work will naturally be done. Because this is different from the elite team that only needs high-level extraordinary people as the core to join the referee. More manpower and more firepower are needed to rescue an island. A few high-level extraordinary people may not play that big role.

Therefore, Lawrence felt that he needed to bring an elite force for this rescue operation. Fortunately, after discovering the undead fish and divination last time, he consciously concentrated the armed forces on the island and secretly prepared for battle. So after spending more than half a day, a capable fleet unanchored and left the port of Nova Sauer and headed north.

This time Lawrence and his team included Safiel, Fatina and Lanhua in addition to Lawrence and Nora. The army is also an elite force composed of three races, consisting of 350 human troops, 120 tauren troops and 110 ratmen, and carries a large number of weapons, ammunition and logistical supplies.

Considering that the island can provide enough food and drinking water, Lawrence and the others don't carry much of this kind of thing. In terms of logistics, it mainly carried ammunition, weapon spare parts and medical supplies. Most importantly, a group of medical personnel from the Church of Agriculture, the Church of the Passion, the Church of Wealth, and the Island School of Medicine will also go to support the ship.

In order to carry this force, Lawrence and the others temporarily hired two 600-ton fast sailboats to transport immigrants in addition to the three steam sailboats that were armed before. Unexpectedly, the dwarf Adolf and his fast cargo ship Sailing boats also volunteered to join this small expedition.

"Actually, you don't need to come here at all." Standing on the deck of the Enterprise, Lawrence said to the dwarf who was wearing an enchanted armor and was covered with various weapons. "The installation and debugging of the hedgehog bomb is not that complicated. I think several other engineers can also complete this work, and you don't need to do it yourself."

"But I think I have to go, because our family has an ancestral motto to kill sahuagin as much as possible." said the dwarf with the same surname Volcano. "More than a thousand years ago, our family was commissioned by His Majesty the Emperor to build a set of magic armor. As a result, the armor was attacked by the sahuagin during the sea transportation after the armor was made."

"Our family suffered heavy losses in that attack. The family members escorting the armor were almost wiped out, and the victims even included the elders of the family at that time, the former team leader. Since then, people like this We will definitely participate in the sahuagin war, not to mention that I am carrying weapons against them this time."

"Ah, I can understand what you're doing. I hope you can kill a large group of sahuagin this time." Hearing what the dwarf said, Lawrence immediately understood his approach. It is absolutely normal to choose to fight to the end when facing these enemies with deep hatred.

"Of course." Adolf the dwarf nodded. "I'm sure I can kill a lot of sahuagin."
