Chapter 494 Deep Sea Scale Fairy
The night in Ark Harbor is still quiet and peaceful, but there is another element added tonight, which is festive.
Several important streets in the city are covered with colored flags. When the wind blows at night, the colored flags flutter in the wind like colorful ribbons. People rushed to the street, at this moment, there was a strange whistling sound from the direction of White Castle, and then a ball of fireworks exploded in the night sky. Bright fireworks illuminate people's faces.
Even in the Harvest Festival held every three years, no fireworks were ever set off from White Castle, but today was different. It was an event held by Earl Aubain to celebrate the expansion of his territory. As a lord, people are naturally proud of such a lord. What's more, the expansion of the power of the lords also has vital benefits for their lives.
Activities were held in several squares in the city tonight, attracting the attention of countless citizens. But what attracts people's attention the most is naturally the parade of "Deep Sea Lin Ji". Deep Sea Linji is Oban's direct line of troops, and the person in charge of commanding this army is Oban's younger sister Ruola. This army is small in number, but it has always been talked about for its luxurious equipment. Of course, with the financial resources of the Oban family, they can fully support such a team of thousands of people, let alone use it on his favorite sister, so Oban will not even frown.
The Deep Sea Linji set off from the city's military camp base, will pass through several main streets of the city, and finally enter the White Fort. People occupied important positions in several city squares early on, only to see the demeanor of this army and the beauty of Zola.
When the time came to eight o'clock, Shenhai Linji left the barracks on time. The first to leave the camp was a row of foot soldiers with neat steps. They were wearing armor with light blue as the main color. Even though it was light armor, the coverage of each set of armor was as high as 80%, which was 30% larger than that of normal light armor, which was rare even in the private army of the Earl level of the Empire.
Each infantryman hangs a sword at his waist, carries a hand shield and a rifle on his back. No matter what kind of weapons are of high-quality grade, after being armed with these equipments, even ordinary infantrymen still radiate with the aura of imperial elites.
After a total of 500 infantrymen formed a square formation and walked out of the barracks, people saw a red cloud floating out of the barracks. Those were a hundred musketeers, and they were wearing dark red leather armor. The leather armor was light and easy to move. Although it is leather armor, it is lined with steel wire mesh, so it also has good defense. It is worth noting that the muskets used by these special soldiers are not the standard varieties circulating in the market, but an enhanced version of the firearm called "Fire Dragon". Fire dragon guns were the standard configuration of the empire's main force ten years ago. Since the release of the newer version of Yanlong model fire guns, these fire guns have been withdrawn, but most of them are only used by local emperors.
There are indeed not many troops like Shenhai Linji who can be equipped with fire dragon rifles. It can be seen that Oban also spent a lot of money on these 100 gunmen.
After the red cloud floated out of the barracks, the welcoming people suddenly saw a forest of guns! Yes, a forest of two hundred dragon spears raised high. After the Musketeers, Shen Hai Lin Ji's third unit, Heavy Gunners,
They wore heavy armor that ordinary people could hardly bear, and carried two-meter-long dragon spears in their hands. Although this kind of long spear is called a dragon spear, it is a pity that there are no such creatures as dragons in this world.
The dragon gun is mainly used to deal with all mobile units including heavy cavalry. The two-meter-long gun body is made of fine iron, and they can withstand the impact of heavy cavalry without breaking. At the end of the gun, there is a baffle plate engraved with wavy patterns, so that the blood of the enemy will not stain the soldiers' hands. These iron cans are also mobile vaults, and the cost of each heavy gunman is estimated at thousands of gold coins.
Finally, the crisp sound of horseshoes rang out behind these tin cans, it was the cavalry team of Deep Sea Linji. Two hundred cavalrymen rode all Lansen white horses, which were the best war horses with noble blood. Every hair on their bodies is white and flawless. These war horses have excellent endurance and excellent physical fitness, and can carry a heavy cavalry. The white war horse is paired with platinum harness, which makes the horse even more luxurious.
The knight on the horse is wearing a dark green underlay, and the outer layer is a chain made of gold and copper mixed metals, passing through the lock suit woven with silver armor. These cavalry are equipped with two-handed swords and knight lances, making them excellent fighting abilities both on and off the horse. The helmets of the cavalry are very special. Their crowns are like the dorsal fin of a shark, extending from the helmet to the back of the head.
After all the troops of the Deep Sea Linji left the camp, they stood up and separated to form a passage. Two knights appeared at the innermost part of the passage, one female and one male, one in front and one behind. The woman is naturally the commander of this army, and also Oban's younger sister, Ruola. Ruola has just turned twenty-two years old this year, and her outstanding talent in source power allows her to have a strength of level twenty at a young age.
Auban's shadow can be seen in her facial features, she has very rare black long hair, and her eyes are sky blue like the blue sea. She was wearing sky-blue armor with curvaceous wavy patterns on the armor. A white cape hangs from behind the shoulders. The lining of the cape is bright red. The contrast is extremely strong, which is also in line with Ruola's personality. She rode an exceptionally tall snow-white war horse, and after leaving the camp, Ruola drew out a long sword decorated with gemstones and crystals. Stimulated by the force of the source, pieces of blue flames surged like the tide of the blue sea, and finally merged into a beam of light soaring into the sky, welcoming the cheers and applause of the people on both sides.
Compared with Ruola's grand debut, the adjutant Abel behind her is much more low-key. Abel is the nephew of Viscount Graal, and Marcus, who once bumped into Allen at the dinner party, is his brother. But he was much calmer than Ma Ku, and his seventeenth-level combat power made him even more dazzling among the younger generation. He has been chasing Ruola for many years, but to no avail. This is also a pity for Graal, otherwise if Abel can marry Rola, the connection between their family and Oban will be even closer.
Ruola retracted her long sword and galloped ahead. Abel hurried to follow, and the army began to move, parading the main streets to be baptized by people's eyes.
Let the war horse go forward on its own, Ruola whispered to the adjutant next to him: "I heard from my brother that Baron Allen will also attend the banquet this time. It's great, I can finally see this man who killed Dulufu and let him Daniel lost most of the characters in the territory."
Ruola couldn't hide a smile on her face, and Abel's face seemed to be shrouded in haze. He forced a smile, but he didn't answer, and there was a strong resentment in his heart. After Allen beheaded Dulufu, Ruola mentioned the baron from time to time. The frequency of mentioning this name became more and more frequent as Allen conquered more territories. Consciously or unconsciously, Abel could hear the inadvertent admiration in Ruola's tone.
Thinking that if he has been chasing the goddess in front of him for many years, he has never been talked about by Ruo La so often. This Allen has only been with Auban for a few months, and Ruola often thinks about it, and Abel hates and envies him all the time. What's more, not long ago, his brother Marcus ran into Alan at the reception, and was severely taught by the other party. Every time Abel heard the name Alan, he felt very unhappy.
"Abel, you said you met him this time, and you don't know if you have a chance to compete with him." Ruola said casually.
Abel had no choice but to laugh and said, "If it were me, I would naturally wish for the opportunity to compete with you."
This sentence is true.
Ruola laughed and said, "I'm afraid people don't think of me at all."
"How is it possible? I heard from my subordinates that that Allen is only at the seventeenth level. It is his honor to be able to get Miss Ruola's guidance."
"This is what I can't figure out. He is only level seventeen, but how can he kill Dulufu? Even if I ask myself, it is difficult to do it. Dulufu's ability is very powerful. At most, I can only protect myself, but I can't kill him. Got him." Ruola's eyes were shining like pearls: "So this is what attracts me the most about him, if I have the chance, I must ask him how he did it."
Abel sighed, he is not young anymore. Before pursuing Ruola, he also had romantic affairs with several noble ladies. He is very clear that when a woman becomes interested in the opposite sex, no matter what kind of interest, the opposite sex has left a deep impression on the woman's heart. At this time, a man can take a woman into his arms as long as he puts a little thought into it.
After all, he had done the same before. Seeing Ruola's strong interest in Allen, Abel only felt that his position was very dangerous.
When the army turned into the Liefeng Avenue leading to the White Castle, on the other side of the street, a team rushed out at the same time. In front of that team was a luxurious carriage pulled by two Gaulish warhorses. The Gaulish warhorses were also high-grade warhorses of high value, comparable to the Lanson White Horse. Being able to use them to pull a carriage, the people in the carriage must have a high status.
And behind the carriage is a group of cavalry, they are wearing simple armor, the armor is matte, and the material is very special. The most special thing is that they should be the Gunners, but the guns on their backs are extremely rough. Even with Abel's eyes, he can't tell what type of musket they are.
There is a horse on the left and right of the carriage. One of the two horses is young and tall, and the other is as burly as a mountain. The temperament is very different, but without exception, they are all masters. Especially the big man on the right, holding a non-steel and non-iron warhammer in his hand. Under the night, the war hammer occasionally flashed a strange light, and it was obvious at a glance that it was not an ordinary weapon.
Just by looking at the equipment and strength of the followers, one can infer the status of the master. Seeing this cavalry team, even Ruola said "Huh". With such a configuration, apart from her brother Oban, Ruola thought, even Viscount Graal would not be able to show such strength.
Deep Sea Linji and the opponent's cavalry met on the road, and confusion was inevitable. Abel snorted, whipped the horse, stepped forward and shouted sharply: "Whose horse team is this, do you know who we are? Everyone in the car, get out!"
Immediately, the knights on the left and right changed colors at the same time. The tall young man on the left let out a high and surging aura, while the big man on the right snorted. His aura was as rough as a vertical iron, and he pushed it hard, making Abel feel as if he had hit an iron mountain, and his face suddenly turned pale.
At this time, someone in the carriage said calmly: "The tone is quite loud, who is your Excellency. Tell me, let's see if I can afford to offend you?" r1058
