Captain Estes looked at the calm sea in silence.
"What a terrifying storm, right?"
An elf in a robe and a crown walked to his side.
The captain bowed and said, "Good day, Master Lacey."
Every elf's main ship would have a powerful Grand Mage holding down the fort. They held huge power and their status was equivalent to the captain's, or even slightly higher… Sometimes, the captain had to listen to their opinions.
The Grand Mage asked, "Has the hull damage evaluation been completed?"
The captain nodded. "It's done. We've collided with the reef and have also endured the attack of the wind and lightning. The craftsman is leading the damage control team to repair it, but without the help of spells, the progress is very slow. This is because they have to manually change the spare parts and guide the natural spirit. They estimate that it will take eight hours to ensure that the Wayne Wings can continue sailing without any hidden dangers."
The Grand Mage sighed, "I'm sorry. In the Storm Tide, it was supposed to be our time to unleash our strength, but we couldn't help at all."
The captain shook his head and said, "No, this is not your fault."
The wise Grand Mage looked at the island not far away and slowly said, "We explore the mysteries of the world and turn it into controllable power. We control the flames, control the lightning, raise huge waves, and call the wind. The power of nature was obtained by the mages, but arrogance was also born."
He said in a low voice, "I was once happy about my achievements, but last night, I saw the true power, especially when my magic powers were suppressed and I lost the perception of the elements. I could only bump through the waves like an ordinary elf without strength. My life could no longer be controlled by me… At that moment, I finally realized the limit and true strength of an elf, and I comprehended something…"
The captain was stunned, then said in surprise, "Could it be that you're about to…"
The Grand Mage shook his head in disappointment. "There's still some distance left."
He only sighed with emotion, but his gaze was fixed on the island in front of him, "Compared to the important mission of my race, my personal matters are not worth mentioning. However, Captain, the magic and taboo of the Holy Seal Islands are beyond imagination. I'm afraid you can't obtain the support of the spellcasters."
The captain smiled confidently.
"There's no need to worry. Although the suppression of supernatural powers is bad news, our enemies are also facing the same dilemma. If we can only rely on swords, spears, bows, bodies, and courage to fight now…"
Captain Estes's tone was powerful. "Then, do you think the elves will lose to the Goethe people?"
The Grand Mage smiled. "Of course not."
The vast forest was the origin of the elves. It was not as quiet and romantic as the fantasies of stupid bards and ignorant noble ladies. What about the Moon God protecting every living being in the forest? What about standing aloof from worldly affairs and not killing or destroying? It was all nonsense.
The main theme of the forest was neither peace nor beauty. Instead, it was the law of the jungle. The carnivores hunted, and the herbivores were eaten. The numbers of the two sides relied on killing and devouring to maintain the balance, so the forest could be stable for a long time. If either side's numbers were abnormal, a disaster-like change would quickly arrive.
This was the foundation of the forest's existence, the only reason.
This was also the greatest principle that the elves had learned from the forest.
What did the elves rely on to build their royal authority in the vast forest?
It was not a love of art, nor was it smart or intelligent. It was not related to a grand culture, nor was it because of justice and virtue. Those were all self-praises after the elves obtained power. Coupled with the self-hypnosis and active flattery of many sad and laughable timid races,
the reason why they could rule the vast forest was only because they were… extremely good at fighting.
Captain Estes saluted the Elven Grand Mage.
"The main ship of the Wayne Wings is under the Royal Navy. It's the pillar of the Invincible Fleet. All the serving crew are pure-blooded elves, and their loyalty to the Empress will never waver. We're the most fatal sea wolves. Even without the support of spells from the spellcasters, we're still peerlessly brave and peerless."
"I'll prove this to you."
The captain pointed at the island in front of him. "Before the ship recovers its normal sailing ability, I want to send troops to search for this island first. If the Moon God blesses and makes the Goethe people happen to wander onto this island, we can take it down in one go… If not, we'll wait for the ship to be repaired before sailing around the islands and see if we can discover their ship."
The Grand Mage nodded solemnly. "A wise judgment. I'll leave everything to you, Captain."
Captain Estes bowed again and came to the command table. The crew was already on standby.
He said, "Captain of the Marine Corps, Weapon Chief, Head Sailor, all of you, meet the officers. I order you to lead the entire Marine Corps and the deck team to land on the island in front of you as soon as possible and carry out a detailed and efficient search to find the humans on the island and firmly attack, eliminate, and capture them!"
"Members of the War Machine Group and the Magic Team, stay and defend!"
"We're currently on the Holy Seal Islands. We're at the northernmost place, so time is precious. Our enemy might be hiding on any island. Let's search this island that's close by first. If they're not here, we'll sail and cruise. If we discover Goethe's ship, we'll sink them. If we discover their people, we'll kill them all. We must let them know that regardless of whether it's the sea or land, they can never defeat us!"
In response, the elves roared enthusiastically.
The assault boats drew a blue wave and rushed towards the North Island.
This commotion alarmed the creatures in the air and water. The sea birds fled in all directions and cried out in surprise as they flew towards the island.
Kang De brought the princess and the knight to look at the scenery and even thoughtfully prepared a sunshade.
If possible, he hoped to use the same umbrella as Tina. However, when he recalled the gorilla's aggrieved gaze, he still raised his umbrella and shielded it.
As expected, the gorilla's mood improved. Moreover, it glanced at Tina from time to time and was very proud.
Not long after, urgent bird cries sounded in the sky as a few seabirds flew over.
The parrot immediately flapped its wings and shouted, "Beauty! Beauty!"
Kang De was speechless. He suddenly thought of something and asked the princess, "Parrot… is it a male or female?"
The princess said in a difficult manner, "It's very difficult to distinguish the gender of a parrot unless you dissect it. This is because male parrots will also be docile, and female parrots will also be forceful… Only in the estrus period will there be an obvious difference."
Kang De looked up at the sky. "…It seems to be horny all year round."
The princess wanted to laugh, but she held it in.
The parrot was entangled with the sea birds in the air. The sea birds chirped anxiously. After a moment, the parrot suddenly shook them off and flew north.
Kang De said, "What's going on?"
After a while, the parrot flew back at a very fast speed.
It also looked very anxious. It circled above Kang De's head as if it could not think of a suitable word. After a while, it shouted, "Good ship! Good ship!"
…Ah? What did it mean?
Kang De looked stunned.
The parrot flew down and flapped its wings. It stretched out its mouth to peck Kang De's chest pocket.
There was a phone inside.
Kang De took out his phone and was grabbed to the ground by the parrot's claws. It flapped its wings and landed. It lowered its head and pecked at the screen.
Mr. Kang glanced at it and could not remain calm. "Hey, hey, hey, how do you know the password?"
Not only did this guy know the password, but it also went straight to the document manager. After pressing it a few times, it opened a mysterious folder and pulled the screen. Then, it opened a set of comics.
It opened the first diagram.
There was a beautiful big sister with sharp ears and a few pieces of clothing sitting on the ground. Her face was red and she placed a finger in her mouth. Saliva flowed out, looking very unhygienic.
The princess walked over curiously. When she heard footsteps behind her, Kang De immediately turned off the screen.
—Reflex, reflex.
Then, Kang De reacted and his heart shook.
The princess asked, "Kang De, what's wrong?"
Kang De swallowed and turned around. He said bitterly, "It said that the elves are coming."
The princess and the knight's expressions changed at the same time. Without a word, Cleveland ran north, "I'll go take a look! Princess, please wait where you are!"
"Gorilla, kangaroo, you stay too!"
Kang De ran after the knight.
It was unknown if he was afraid, nervous, or curious.
Elves.
It was said that there were more women than men, and they were all beautiful women.
On the mountain, they could look down and indeed see a few ships driving ashore.
"Get down!"
The knight reached out and pulled Kang De down. He whispered, "Be careful! The elves have excellent vision. Don't be discovered!"
Kang De nodded, also a little nervous. He opened his eyes to look, but he could not see clearly. It was far away.
He asked, "Is it an elf?"
Cleveland gritted his teeth. "There's no mistake. These sharp ears really dare to chase after us."
Kang De suddenly recalled that he had brought binoculars. He reached out and took them out from behind him. He narrowed his eyes and looked over. The legendary elves were really something to look forward to. It was said that even the males were cute boys.
He looked over with the binoculars.
In the next moment, Kang De froze.
On the ship that landed on the beach were two rows of burly brothers. They had sharp ears and carried huge bows. There was even a broadsword on their knees. All of them looked firm and serious. Their explosive muscles bulged, and their extremely developed bronze chest muscles reflected the dazzling sunlight.
"…Is this a f*cking elf?"
…
