It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

Fortunately, the result was good - she put the sword behind her back again and looked around. Of course, there were casualties on the Vatican's side. Most of them were swallowed up by the fish in an instant due to a little carelessness, and not even a bone was left. Some sea fish are highly poisonous and it is difficult to get rid of them once they are touched.

But overall, the casualties were not great, and she didn't have to personally take action to deal with the remaining casualties.

"Xiao Luoyu, how are you?"

She straightened her clothes and looked at Luo Yu not far away.

The aura around Luo Yu seemed a little weird. The devouring effect brought about by the massive killing even caused a substantial black aura to appear around him.

He himself was a little dazed, and only came back to his senses when he heard Qin Yiyan's call, and gradually returned to normal.

"It's OK, Sister Qin, I'm fine."

He blinked hard, smiled and shook his arm, "Here, look, it's just a small injury."

"...That won't work either. Here, eat this first."

Qin Yiyan was relieved when he saw this, but he still threw him a small bottle with a stern face, "These strange fish are poisonous, we can't take it lightly... Use this to suppress it first, and then find someone to purify it when we return to the ship."

"Okay, thank you, Sister Qin."

Luo Yu took the pill, swallowed it in one gulp, and smiled heartily.

His face was still a little red, not sure if it was because the fight just now was too intense, or for some other reason... But in short, he had always had a good impression of his immediate superior.

Ever since he joined the Knights Templar, they have always taken good care of him, stood up for him many times, and avoided a lot of troubles and criticisms.

Even when facing the forced expedition order from the Holy See and the royal family to Silver Pine Island, she had been fighting for herself. It was a pity that the positioning of the Knights Templar was rather awkward, and they did not have much say in internal affairs.

But even so, he was quite grateful to the other party.

"Go back quickly. The divine aura on the sea is too strong. It is not advisable to stay here for long."

Looking at Luo Yu's smile, Qin Yiyan also slightly curled the corners of his lips.

She really admired this young man - Luo Yu had no parents. He left his hometown at a young age and came to the empire alone. He worked hard step by step to reach his current position.

How similar is this to my past self? She was also an orphan, raised by the Church, and after awakening to become the "Chosen One", she gradually stood out from a small nun, and finally took over the important task of the Knight Commander of the Templar.

She knew very well the feeling of not being trusted and having to rely on herself to persevere. Having been caught in the rain herself, of course she wanted to hold an umbrella for others. This was the doctrine and her true heart.

And Luo Yu did not disappoint her. This was the best result - this was also why she specifically found Xu Shi before going out to sea.

She originally planned to pull the other party aside and ask for clarification on the spot, but later, considering some other external factors, she temporarily suppressed the idea and just mocked the other party lightly.

There are too many things involved here, and it is easy for people to make a fuss about it. It would be better to wait until the conquest of the sea god, and then calmly sort things out one by one.

After all, she was still helping Luo Yu... But she didn't deny that as the Knight Commander, she had an obligation to help when her knights got in trouble. It just so happened that Xu Shi didn't give him a good impression. Not only did he have close ties with the royal family and didn't take the Holy See seriously, he himself gave Qin Yiyan an indescribable evil nature.

Tsk.

"Speaking of which, Xiao Luoyu, are your two sisters still with Xu Shi?"

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but ask one more question.

“…Yes, they don’t want to go back with me.”

It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned this. As soon as he mentioned this, Luo Yu's eyes became more sinister and his tone unconsciously became a little colder.

Because Xu Shi was really abominable! Luo Yu admitted that he had suffered losses before, but in the past he could always find opportunities to slap others in the face. However, when facing Xu Shi, he found that he could not find any way and could only endure the other party's anger and swallow his anger.

More importantly, since he appeared, the attitudes of the people around him towards him have also changed a lot. The sisters Feng and Ling are just the most direct examples... I don't know what kind of magic potion Xu Shi gave them to make them willingly stay with him?

After so many years of living together, are you still not as good as a stranger?

But the fact is this, which makes it difficult for him to accept.

However, facing Qin Yiyan, he was not willing to talk too much, but just smiled to calm down, "Sister Qin, don't worry about me, I will take care of it all."

Because he also noticed something - Xu Shi was good at playing tricks, but his own fighting ability did not seem to be strong, and whenever he encountered problems, he relied on others to solve them.

For example, when he was on Silver Pine Island, his guard, and the woman he had actually fought with...

Haha, he's just a guy who only knows how to feed on women.

He sneered twice in his heart.

"…It would be best if you could solve it yourself."

Qin Yiyan couldn't read his mind, so he couldn't tell what he was thinking. Hearing that, he just reminded him, "But be careful about the method. The barbarians are now close to the royal family. Just based on this, you can't act rashly. Do you understand?"

Although she didn't want to admit it, she also knew that although Xu Shi gave her a bad feeling, this guy was really capable, otherwise the royal family would not have kept holding on to him.

The weapons he brought with him just now also proved this point very well - the royal family also encountered a school of fish attacks, but with the help of those new weapons, they responded just as well, even more easily than them, and suffered fewer casualties...

Her intuition told her that this was definitely not an easy opponent.

Even the people in the Holy See did not want to treat him as an opponent before. The attitude of many people was relatively ambiguous, and they were more inclined to make friends rather than enemies. As for Luo Yu's matter, it was not within their consideration. They could not make a blanket decision just because of such a small matter, otherwise the royal family would take all the benefits. How could that work?

Even Her Royal Highness the Saint and His Holiness the Pope seemed to have the same idea.

This actually put Qin Yiyan in a dilemma. From a rational point of view, she knew that this was absolutely correct, but if it came to personal feelings, she didn't want the Holy See to just ignore Luo Yu.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have known this and yet gone out of her way to find Xu Shi to talk to him... Maybe she really didn't want Xu Shi to get too close to them?

In short, she is really not good at dealing with these twists and turns, and it gives her a headache just thinking about it.

Ugh……

That's when.

The sea surface, which had gradually calmed down, began to boil again!

"what happened?!"

Qin Yiyan became alert instantly, but the situation changed much faster than she had imagined.

In an instant, a large number of fish jumped out of the water and attacked them again!

This time the attack was even more ferocious. The fish seemed to be frightened and rushed towards the people of the Vatican without caring about their lives. What was even more fatal was that the overall quality of this wave of fish was also higher. They were no longer small fish that would break into pieces at the slightest touch, but were mainly large fish!

For example, this little tiger shark in front of us, after a little sensing, it turns out to have the strength of Rock Class (B Class)?

What are you doing? !

"careful!"

Without time to think, Qin Yiyan drew out his heavy sword again and began to chop left and right among the fish.

And before long she also discovered that all this seemed to be Xu Shi's doing. The subtle and strange fluctuations on the sea seemed to come from his ships? Those strange warheads drifting downstream must also be their work... It seemed that because of these, the state of the fish school became more unstable.

Hard!

The fist is hard!

Before, you were just working without putting in any effort, but now you don’t even pretend to do that, right?

No, he was still pretending, and then he saw another small boat being lowered from Xu Shi's side, and together with the one in front, they were attacking the sea with all their might.

The people on the boat were even shouting, "Brothers of the Hualan Empire, don't be afraid, fight them!"

I'm gonna give you a hard time!

Qin Yiyan was so angry that he wanted to curse. Facing such a large number of enemies, what difference would there be between having two small boats and having no boats? What would it change if you burned sparks from the gun barrel?

Almost got it!

She couldn't even understand it. Are you dragging the royal family into this? You know, they are not far from the royal ships. This indiscriminate seduction will definitely affect the royal family! Aren't you cooperating?

"They are truly barbarians, totally untrustworthy and extremely treacherous!"

She finally couldn't help herself and yelled angrily, with the force of the heavy sword in her hand becoming stronger and stronger. It was obvious that she was taking the school of fish as an object of venting her anger.

Luo Yu also realized this. Of course, he could not just stay out of it, and he and Qin Yiyan had already started fighting against the fish tide again.

But when it comes to hatred towards Xu Shi, his level is probably the deepest.

It’s that time again, it’s that time again!

Why do I always fall into his trap? What's even more annoying is that I am completely unable to cope with it and am always led by him.

Not to mention that everyone knew that they were now doing odd jobs for Xu Shi and his entourage, serving as free labor... How could he accept this? !

屮!

If he doesn't avenge this, Luo Yu will not be a human being!

……

"How about it? Isn't it interesting?"

Xu Shi wanted to kill even his own people's hearts, and asked while looking at his silly disciple with great interest.

"This……"

Pan Ling said it was hard to say. If one puts oneself in opposition to the Vatican or even the royal family, this approach would undoubtedly be very satisfying. Not only would one be able to manipulate the opponent at will, but one could also effectively reduce their strength. One win would mean two wins.

But if she changes her perspective, she suddenly feels that Brother Luo Yu is a bit pitiful. This is completely on a different level... She might be bullied by her master in the future.

"Okay, that's about it."

Just when she was dizzy, Xu Shi ordered to stop this despicable practice of diverting trouble.

This is certainly not because he is kind-hearted, but everything has to be done in moderation.

We can't let these small fry consume too much of the strength of the other two parties, otherwise they will really be facing the Sea God alone - we should keep some of them in reserve so that we can let them step on the mines when the time comes.

This is the real recycling and maximizes the value.

"Ms. Xingchuan, haven't you found the location of the Sea God yet?"

he asked, picking up the radio.

"No……"

Yu Xingchuan responded weakly, "There is nothing displayed on the radar, and I can't feel any strong rust fog fluctuations myself."

There is no doubt about this. Most of the people present are quite strong and have some perception ability. If the previous speculation about Poseidon is followed, if the other party really appears nearby, the radar in their hearts would have already exceeded the limit.

But this is actually a very strange thing. Logically speaking, even a fool can see that there is a problem here. The fish tide alone cannot affect such a large sea area, right?

unless……

"Unless... this sea god has the ability to hide himself."

Realizing this, Xu Shi looked at the radar again and found something wrong.

Although it is not displayed, there is a blank area in the nearby sea area on the radar, and the fish will consciously avoid it, whether they are being driven away or otherwise.
