Chapter 707 Returning to China (Part 1)

Yesterday's spell went wrong. The druid's eighth-level spells are as follows

Awakening Treant: Can awaken a tree over 500 years old

Collective healing of minor injuries: Heal allies within a certain range

Level 8 Nature Summoning: Summons regular dragons

Earthquake: Make a piece of earth shake (mostly used on city walls)

Finger of Death: Kills a subject.

Anti-Gravity: The target object or creature will fall upwards.

Yang Yan Blast: Rain of Fire and Positive Fire

There is also the problem of druids. Agricultural druids cannot break through level 15. Note that it is a breakthrough, that is to say, they will always stay at level 15. Druid, very normal.

However, it is not easy to modify in P, let’s add it here, the above is not counted as words

At this moment, in a distant area of ​​the sea, Prince Xiu Senya stood on the deck, and there were various corpses everywhere on the deck.

In the distance, ships are constantly floating on the shore.

In an era without artillery, these battles were still hand-to-hand, and the ships were largely intact.

"This time we won again, but we lost a lot of personnel." Prince Xiu Senya said solemnly.

"Yes, Your Highness. Commander Shakat has formally proposed to us that he wants to return to China for repairs." A prince's think tank took a step closer and said, "I think it should be the same."

"Oh, what's your opinion?"

"Your Highness, we are on the edge, so we have won some victories. In fact, even the human fleet in the elf fleet is not, but pirates."

"Because Vardenwen became king, some captains became nobles, which greatly encouraged the pirates. Countless pirates flocked to join the camp of the elves, making this battle almost an internal friction among humans."

"According to the intelligence, the elves are becoming more and more familiar with naval battles, and a large and powerful elf navy is constantly forming in the process of supporting wars."

"And the elves carried out a large-scale plunder, attacked the port,

Looting wealth, but not carrying out massacres, and not occupying it. Although this situation allowed the elves to obtain a large amount of materials and wealth, it did not arouse the joint encirclement and suppression of the human world. "

"From these circumstances, I think this war will last for a long time. In this war, the Kingdom of Derby, the Kingdom of Trang, and even the Kingdom of Delanya, which is closest to us, will continue to lose blood."

"If the war continues, then perhaps the expansion of our kingdom will be taken for granted."

"You mean an annexation war? But the gods..."

"Prohibiting human civil war is only the decision of the gods during the disaster, but now, it is no longer restricted. Besides, if the time is right, send troops to those weak kingdoms in the name of resisting elves..."

"Besides, even if they are not annexed, when these kingdoms become weaker and weaker and cannot afford the rewards, they can only use their territories as mortgages or as rewards. This is..."

"Well, there is some truth. I'll go back to China to fix it."

"Yes, Your Highness, we have already fought seven battles. At this time, the repair is justified, and no one can say anything. Besides, although military achievements are very important, the kingdom should not ignore them. You can't leave the mainland for too long. It's time to go back."

"That's true!" His Royal Highness sighed, "This is indeed the most correct choice."

Prince Xiu Senya raised his head and glanced at the surface of the water. On the surface of the water, the dead on his side had basically been caught. As for the corpses of the pirates, no one would care.

It's winter now, and even though there was blood, it didn't attract sharks.

"By the way, how much wealth have we gained this time?"

"Your Highness, there are still 76,000 gold coins remaining from the rewards and supplies given by these kingdoms, but these gold coins will be used to compensate the marines who died in battle, so there will not be much left."

"But our trophies are twenty-three ships, five of which are 500-ton battleships, which can be kept, and the other ships can be sold. Including the goods plundered by pirates, there is an estimated profit of 250,000 gold coins in this regard. .”

"However, part of the proceeds will be given to Viscount Tattershaw."

"Hiss..." Prince Xiu Senya took a breath, and then said with a wry smile: "Our royal family of Esk Kingdom only has 400,000 gold coins a year in treasury revenue, and the war really comes from money!"

"You have to win. By the way, Your Highness, you must make up your mind early on how to distribute this. Otherwise, after returning to China, there will be many jealous people."

"Well, all the goods were sold on the way back. How much is this part?"

"About 70,000 gold coins."

"Sell it all, this part is ours."

"Understood, the boat?"

"A 500-ton ship, three pirate ships, and other 500-ton ships were allotted to Viscount Tattershaw, and all of them will be filled into the ranks of the Fourth Navy. The other ships will also be sold. How much is this part worth?"

"After deducting three, there are fifteen pirate ships with a total value of about 150,000 gold coins."

"First contact Viscount Tattershaw to see how much he can eat. If he is willing to eat all of it. As long as he has 100,000 gold coins, he can take all of it, and the rest will be paid within two years." Having said that, Xiu Senya The prince shook his head and sighed: "If you can't eat it, you can sell it along the way. In short, you must raise 100,000 gold coins before returning home."

"Does Viscount Tattershaw have one hundred thousand gold coins?"

"Hmph, I've figured it out in the past few years. I don't know the exact income, but Tattershaw's income is at least 10,000 gold coins a year! Of course, it's only been three years since the resumption of production, so the 100,000 is a bit more. However, Romon moved to other countries, and I heard that he has gained a lot of benefits, and he may be able to raise money. Besides, he can also borrow money from the Chamber of Commerce... In short, I want to find out how strong Viscount Tattershaw's foundation is! "

"Then the one hundred thousand gold coins?" It turned out that this was the intention. This confidant and think tank was silent at first, then avoided the topic and asked cautiously.

"Dedicated to my father." The prince said decisively, with a sneer on his face.

"Didn't you say that many people are jealous? If I come to distribute, no matter what, if there is dissatisfaction, then give it to the father, one hundred thousand gold coins, no one can talk, right? If you want to get involved, you can go to the father Reach out!"

"Your Highness is wise, and if this is the case, His Majesty will be very happy, but, seeing so many bonuses, will His Highness also send troops? If he tries his best, he might be able to get the command of the Third Fleet."

"Hmph, let him do it. This military achievement is not about picking peaches. Don't come back in a big defeat." Prince Xiu Senya sneered: "I'm not afraid of poor goods, but I'm afraid of not being able to compare. If the elder brother is always in the country. I Even if the military achievements are outstanding, it is difficult to directly compare, one is internal affairs, and the other is military."

"But if he sends troops, hehe, I'll know after comparing them. I'm afraid that he will be able to hold his breath and not send troops. The 100,000 gold coins are just to force him to send troops!"

"...Your Highness is wise, but this time Tattershaw is said to have built a mage tower. With these gold coins, you can also build a mage tower."

"The basic cost of the mage tower is 30,000, and it can be increased slowly in the future. With the mage tower, you can win over your mages, and you may invite a group of mages above level five."

"Gonida, Haman, Keju, these are all welcome, maybe His Highness can impress them."

"Taking a ten thousand step back, this can also make Your Highness's Lantu Island as stable as gold."

His Royal Highness nodded, thought for a while and said: "There is no doubt that what you said is absolutely correct, I will immediately put these into the plan, by the way, if you have no objection, I will contact Viscount Tattershaw... Long-distance magic connections are really valuable, on the fleet, I only have five, one less than one."

The fixed magic communication is already very valuable, and usually needs to be transferred by the mage tower, and the non-fixed magic communication is prepared in advance, and it is a one-time consumption, which is even more distressing.

However, even so, His Royal Highness still gave the order and carried it out.

At this time, almost all the corpses had been collected.

Pirates have sea burials, but navies don't.

The chaplain with the army has basically treated the wounded and stabilized the injury. Next, we will focus on dealing with these soldiers who died in battle.

On the largest deck, a temporary altar has been erected, on which a line of priests pray.

Rolls of white cloth were spread on the ground.

The ones who died first were not those who died in battle with the highest status. These people with the highest status were often members of noble families, who would be transported back to the family for burial.

In the beginning, the middle-level war dead were washed and their wounds were anointed with holy water.

Although a person is dead, there is still residual vitality in the cells. After being wiped, the surface of the wound will often heal.

"You died for the kingdom. You are irresponsible. May God accept you and return to the kingdom of heaven." The death etiquette is not complicated, but very serious.

After a short prayer, the priest rolls up the body.

A special magic furnace was waiting for him. As soon as the corpse was put in it, it turned into ashes within a few minutes and was packed in a wooden box with a label.

One after another, the prince, with a serious expression at this moment, paid his respects when they were burning.

Twenty priests fought together, and it was actually very fast. After two hours, the war dead were all turned into urns.

Finally, there are three coffins. These are the nobles who died in this battle. The corpses were not only washed, but also put on full military uniforms. Under the effect of the spell, their expressions were peaceful, as if they were just asleep.

The faint sunset, sprinkled on the deck, coated everything with a faint golden layer.

Walking slowly along the deck, Prince Xiu Senya finally breathed a sigh of relief, the funeral was over.

However, most of the ships have lost a large number of manpower, and the captive ships are now barely able to move.

At this time, Prince Xiu Senya missed his home very much.

But at this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps interrupted his nostalgia, and he couldn't help frowning.

"Oh! What's the news? Could it be that Viscount Tattershaw didn't agree?" Prince Xiu Senya asked in displeasure.

"Oh, no, Your Highness, in the magic communication, Viscount Tattershaw replied that 100,000 gold coins is a bit more, and he can only take out 40,000, but the other 60,000 will be raised through the business association, and he is going to buy them all." .”

"It's a big deal, but it's normal. Why are you surprised?" The prince raised his eyebrows and said, it was about the same as he estimated, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

It can be regarded as touching part of the foundation of the allies.

"Yes, there's no need to be surprised by this, but I got a piece of news that Viscount Tattershaw became an archdruid just a few days ago."

"...What, what are you talking about?" The prince quickly closed his mouth when he said this, obviously realizing that the appearance of opening his mouth just now was really indecent.

"I have received news that Viscount Tattershaw, just a few days ago, passed the joint certification of the Adventurer's Union and was promoted to level 15, and was awarded the title of Archdruid." This confidant think tank said cautiously.

"Hiss!" This was the prince's gasp.

"Your Highness, this matter has a great impact!" said the confidant and think tank.

"The New Year hasn't passed yet. He is only twenty-five years old now. At twenty-five years old, he is the archdruid. This is really shocking!" the prince murmured.

"In all fairness, it is true, but fortunately he is a druid, not a mage, otherwise, maybe there will be another legend in our kingdom." The confidant and think tank said with a little congratulations: "Your Highness, the arch druid is indeed It's shocking, but for thousands of years, in the human world, no matter how many geniuses there are, they haven't broken through level 15 or reached level 16, and this is still under control."

After thinking for a while, Prince Xiu Senya nodded slowly. (!)
