Chapter 308: Only the Strongest Means Can Be Used
A large number of Roman warships sailed over from the east. Most of them were sailing ships. Although they had sails, their main power came from the large amount of water used to row long oars on the ship.
Everyone's eyes moved over. Bao Zheng looked around and spoke first: "The navy of the Great Qin State is quite powerful."
The Song Dynasty also had a very powerful navy, but it preferred to operate along the coast and on the rivers.
Originally, Bao Zheng was not very concerned about the role of the navy. After all, the Northern Song Dynasty was an inland country and the focus was on the army.
But during the past year at sea, he had seen and heard things along the way, encountered pirates, and witnessed naval battles between small countries. He already knew the role that a strong navy could play.
Lu Sen's sight quickly stopped on the largest galley. The other galleys all had the standard double-headed eagle logo on their sails, while the one on that large ship was purple irises.
Iris is the national flower of the Roman Empire, and the royal family reveres purple, so there must be at least one member of the royal family on board the ship.
Lu Sen and Alice boarded the aircraft and flew towards the group of warships to the east, and soon arrived above the big ship.
Looking down through the glass cover, Lu Lin quickly found a familiar figure on the deck.
Empress Theodora.
The aircraft landed and Lu Sen walked out.
A group of armored warriors protected Theodora, and she waved her hand to ask the guards to move aside, and took the initiative to walk in front of Lu Sen.
"I didn't expect that Her Majesty the Queen would personally go to the front line of the battlefield." Lu Sen was a little surprised. In the Roman Empire, it was not uncommon for male kings to lead the army in person, but it was rare for the Queen to lead the army in person.
After all, there are few queens.
Theodora looked at Lu Sen, her eyes sparkling, and she smiled charmingly: "Master Lu, how about we go in and have a chat?"
The weather was a little hot at this time, and Queen Theodora was dressed very coolly, in a low-cut dress. Her fair skin was slightly reddened by the scorching sun, which made her look strangely seductive.
According to the original history, Empress Theodora never married and had no children. She was already old when she became empress and reigned for only fifteen years. After her death, the Macedonian dynasty of the Eastern Roman Empire perished due to the lack of an heir.
But now, unlike the original history, Theodora has become much younger, at the most mature and beautiful age, and also the most fertile age.
Many times, as long as there is not too much external pressure and resources are sufficient, reproduction is the instinct of all living things. Few people are exceptions, and even the nine-tailed fox cannot escape this habit.
What about ordinary people?
The reason why she chose Lu Sen as the father of her child was simple. Theodora was attracted by Lu Sen's "bloodline".
In this country where bloodline is respected, Lu Sen's "mystery", "power" and "dignity" are all "qualities" that they value very much. More importantly, in their eyes, Lu Sen truly possesses magical items.
Whether it is eating the "forbidden fruit" that can reverse time, or the solar boat floating in the air.
If you give birth to offspring with such a person, what if the offspring also possess these abilities?
At this time, the Sun Boat was also floating in the air, above the treasure ship, being controlled by Shi Lei, and everyone nearby could see it.
Seeing that their noble and beautiful queen actually invited a foreigner into the cabin, the noble generals who liked to think with their lower body were a little unhappy.
Although Theodora's real age was nearly 60 years old at this time, the problem was... she had become younger.
They all wanted to have a taste of her beauty.
Therefore, the looks towards Lu Sen seemed unfriendly.
Lu Sen waved his hand and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Her Majesty, but I have something important to do, so I can't stay any longer."
Alice looked a little unhappy and translated Lu Sen's words.
In her opinion, she, a genuine Song person, had no chance of winning the official's favor, so how could a mere barbarian woman dare to have such wishful thinking.
Theodora looked regretful.
As for the other generals wearing leather armor, they all looked much better.
It’s a good thing that the fat meat of our own garden is not being eaten by outsiders.
"So what should we do next?" Theodora pointed to a small island in the distance. "Our people can't get close to that island at all."
Lu Sen showed a meaningful smile: "Her Majesty has already sent someone to try it?"
Theodora smiled charmingly and said, "I'm just gathering some information. This is the right attitude for the owner of this place, isn't it?"
She would naturally send people up there to investigate. What if she could get the 'things' there?
Many times, opportunities and benefits require bold "trying", maybe you will get them. This is the most simple instinct of the people of the Eastern Roman Empire.
The result... let alone going up, it’s impossible to get close at all.
"Then thank you for your patience, Your Majesty." Lu Sen bowed lightly.
We will need these people to help charge and attract fire later, so there is no need to offend anyone by speaking out.
"Then what should we do when we get up there?" A bearded general stood up. He was wearing chain mail and had a short sword on his waist. He looked very energetic. "Should you command us, or should we act freely?"
"When I open the formation, you can act freely." Lu Sen chuckled. He didn't want to command these soldiers and generals. There was no need.
"What about the spoils?" asked another younger general.
Lu Sen still maintained his smile: "Of course, whoever grabs it first will own it."
A group of generals immediately cheered and were extremely excited.
The soldiers of the Song Dynasty were already ruffians, and these generals and soldiers of the Eastern Roman Empire were essentially organized bandits.
For them, being able to burn, kill and loot is the happiest thing in the world.
Theodora's face was slightly flushed, which was due to excitement.
She was already fantasizing about what kind of benefits she could get from this battle.
Is it the legendary magic item, a sheepskin bag that can give people endless wealth, or the supreme scepter that can allow one to grasp powerful power, integrate the Eastern and Western Roman Empires, and restore the glory of Greece?
After these people cheered for a while, one of them asked anxiously: "Sir, when do we start?"
"I'll go get ready." Lu Sen pointed to a small green island in the distance and said, "When other scenes appear there, you can attack."
The generals immediately rubbed their hands in readiness, then dispersed and prepared to return to the warships they led.
Lu Sen said goodbye to Theodora and flew back to the deck of the treasure ship with Alice.
Bao Zheng was dressed in black, with his hands behind his back, looking at the green island in the distance, and asked: "Master Lu, we will land on the island and attack later. I and others will follow your command."
"That's not necessary. Just make your own judgment." Lu Sen shook his head and said, "Although the sailors on the treasure ship are stronger than ordinary people, they can't fight against the monsters. Bao Fuyin can wait until we are exhausted and then send people to clean up the mess."
Bao Zheng thought about it for a while, nodded and agreed.
He himself has the power of a civet cat, so his combat power is not weak.
Zhan Zhao and his wife Ding Yuehua are very powerful, and there are also Zhang Longka, Zhao Hu and others, and the sailors are also top-notch.
But... compared to the immortals, it is still a little weak.
He subconsciously looked up at the sun boat hanging in the air and asked, "Master Lu, will the world recreate the scenes of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, when immortals, demons and beasts fought each other?"
Bao Zheng was quite worried about this matter.
Although there is no novel like "Investiture of the Gods" in the Northern Song Dynasty, there are many folk stories about The legends about that period are all fantasy-style.
Bao Zheng originally didn't believe in ghosts and supernatural powers, but now that Lu Sen was born and there was the nine-tailed fox, he had to believe it.
He felt that during the Shang and Zhou dynasties, there must have been chaos and chaos, and it must have been difficult for the ancestors of that period. Life must have been very hard, and they must have been worried every day.
Bao Zheng's question stumped Lu Sen.
After thinking for a while, Lu Sen replied: "I try my best to restrain my disciples and prevent them from interfering with the secular world. After all, this world belongs to the people of the world, not to demons, gods or immortals."
Bao Zheng looked at Lu Sen with some disbelief. He felt that this was no longer avoidance, but... self-humiliation.
Human beings are the masters of the world, not these demons and gods!
Bao Zheng himself didn't dare to think so.
What magical powers does the immortal have? Just by looking at Lu Sen, you can guess a little.
If the number of immortals, or people and things related to immortals, gradually increases in this world, then there may no longer be a time when mortals will be in charge of this world.
Most people did not see this, but Bao Zheng did.
This is also the conclusion he came to after more than a year of wandering on the sea and meditating.
Bao Zheng felt relieved, and then he asked: "I firmly believe in Master Lu's promise, but what about the other gods and demons? Will they agree?"
Lu Sen smiled and said: "The number of Fusang trees in the world will all be in my sect. How many immortals there are in this world and how many immortals can be produced will be decided by my system sect in the future."
Bao Zheng was slightly shocked. He bowed gently and said, "On behalf of the people of the world, I am grateful to Master Lu for his kindness."
He is a gentleman who believes in the promise of his king. Besides, Lu Sen's consistent character and conduct are enough to support his trust.
"Don't be like this, Prefect Bao." Lu Sen held his hands together, then he smiled and said, "My disciples and I will go and break the enemy's psychedelic formation first. I guess the people of Daqin are getting impatient waiting."
"I wish Master Lu a successful start and that he can defeat the enemy as easily as cutting a melon." Bao Zheng congratulated him with a smile.
"Thank you, Governor Bao, for your kind words."
Lu Sen bowed to Bao Zheng, then walked to Zhan Zhao and took out a pair of wooden sculptures from his system backpack.
There are two birds, one black and one white, both with one wing.
"This is a love-winged bird spirit beast, very suitable for you and Madam Ding to use together."
Zhan Zhao waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Zhan doesn't dare to accept such a valuable item."
"We will not know what the situation will be like when we attack the island. If I encounter any danger, I hope to be rescued by you, Brother Zhan."
In fact, whenever Lu Sen was in danger, Zhan Zhao would rush to help, no matter whether he could defeat him or not, or whether he had the confidence to save him or not.
But if you have the power of a spiritual beast, then the hope of saving people will naturally be greater.
Zhan Zhao actually understood that Lu Sen was just using this excuse to send him something, but after thinking for a while, he still took it and said, "Master Lu, please rest assured that unless Zhan is dead, he will definitely protect me well."
"Sorry to trouble you, Brother Zhan."
Lu Sen stuffed the lovebirds into Zhan Zhao's hand, then called Xianxian over. The two of them got on the aircraft and went ahead.
Afterwards, Jingjing, Yaoyao sisters and others also got on their own aircraft and followed Lu Sen.
Four aircraft rushed into the clouds, and Bao Zheng ordered: "Half sail, slow sail."
The sailors took action immediately, and Zhan Zhao took the lovebirds to the cabin. Together with his wife, he wanted to drip blood on the spirit beast to recognize its ownership.
On the other side, the armies of the Eastern Roman Empire and the Macedonian Dynasty saw several black spots flying towards the island and immediately raised their battle flags. Hundreds of warships began paddling and rushed towards the island at a very fast speed, fearing that if they fell behind by one step, they would have no "meat" to eat.
Lu Sen looked at the warships of the Eastern Roman Empire heading towards the island, then turned around and said with a smile: "Xianxian, let's do it together."
"I'll listen to my husband." Xianxian smiled sweetly.
The aircraft hovered above the island. In the eyes of ordinary people, there was nothing here except the shady green woods.
But in the eyes of Lu Sen and others, the place was filled with smoke, and it seemed that the smoke sensed the arrival of Lu Sen and others, and it was rolling quite violently.
"I can already smell the stench of the whale."
The nine-tailed fox jumped out of the aircraft and used its magic power to fly in the air.
The colorful neon dress emits a soft colorful light, and she looks like an immortal. One can only admire her from afar and not touch her.
But only Lu Sen knew how... flirtatious Xianxian was in private.
She flew lower, with four huge white tails spreading out behind her, as if to cover the entire sky, but this was just an illusion, and only covered an area with a radius of about seventy meters.
But it's scary enough.
The spread tail is a sign that the Qingqiu fox is ready to attack with all its strength.
After the fox tail opened, a huge ball of fox fire spread out in front of her and then crashed into the center of the island.
The fox fire was green in color and oval in shape, with a diameter of about fifteen meters in the middle. It left a long trail of flames and sank into the green mist.
And then... nothing happened.
Lu Xianxian retracted her huge fox tail, returned to the aircraft, and said with a slight breath: "Husband, the other side's formation is more solid than I thought."
Lu Sen nodded and didn't find it strange.
Although Lu Xianxian is very strong, the attack she just made has been tested before and is enough to cause a terrible explosion on the ground, with a killing range of about eighty feet in radius.
But this place is the whale's nest that has been operating for hundreds of years. How could it be easily breached?
Lu Sen made an upward motion towards the aircraft behind him. After they rose higher, Lu Sen took out a square red object from the system.
There is a red circle on the top of this thing, and inside the circle there is a rhombus-shaped symbol that divides the inner circle into three equal parts.
And these three symbols, with their azure light, slowly lit up and then slowly went out, repeating this process over and over again.
The moment this thing was taken out, all the white hair on the fox tail behind Lu Xianxian exploded, like four white round sticks.
She felt an extremely terrifying heart palpitation.
I even swallowed my saliva subconsciously, just wanting to stay away from this thing.
Lu Sen pressed his hand on the ring, and soon the green sign began flashing rapidly.
Then Lu Sen threw the thing down, and drove the aircraft himself, taking the others away quickly.
