8) The Last Samurai (Part 10) -Added-

One day ago - Blue Reef

"..."

In the simple yet elegant study, Mei Xinghui was sitting behind the desk, dialing the number on an old-fashioned telephone with a serious expression, and then picked up the receiver.

After a short wait, a familiar voice came from the other end:

"Hello, hello, this is the 'Sudden Awakening', who are you looking for (in Dila)?"

Hearing that familiar voice, Mei Xinghui was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said with some doubt:

"Ms. Aoi? Why are you the one who's answering the phone?"

"Ah, it's Mei-chan!" Aoi's voice on the other end of the phone became more enthusiastic, "Since I don't have much to do, I'm helping the crew share some of the work!"

"Um..."

Mei Xinghui paused for a moment in confusion, as if she was considering Aoi's expertise. Soon, she sighed softly in a voice that Aoi couldn't hear, and then continued:

"Captain Furukawa asked me to inform the captains of the new fleet that the insurance mechanism needs to be changed. He predicts that an unexpected situation will occur soon."

"Insurance mechanism? Are you referring to the communication mechanism that says 'respond at least twice a day'?" Aoi was clearly not completely unprepared. "What is the specific plan after the change?"

"Respond every half hour," Mei Xinghui said succinctly. "If you don't receive a response from the Blue Reef in half an hour, please immediately launch a targeted strike and destroy all the coordinates that have been marked by us."

Hearing Mei Xinghui's words, Aoi took a deep breath and seemed a little surprised:

"Half an hour? Has it come to this?"

"Captain Furukawa Watari believes that Watari and String have already targeted us," Mei Hoshiki said, "If there is no response from us in half an hour, it means that we have encountered the Soul Eater naval battle and have lost the ability to respond."

"It sounds dangerous..." Aoi said uncomfortably, "Anything else?"

"Also, if the time is accurate to within half an hour, the fleet's Sky Punishment Strike System should be able to predict our approximate location based on our speed and direction when we last responded."

Mei's voice was very clear, but at this moment it was tinged with a faint tremor. Although it was not obvious, Aoi still felt her uneasiness and fear:

"Please strike the Blue Reef's location based on that coordinate."

"Fire at you?" Aoi was a little unbelievable, "But...you won't..."

"Captain Furukawa Tou said that the Soul Eater will not destroy us directly, but will engage us," Mei Xinghui took a deep breath and said, "According to the intelligence of the Seagull Port Battle, the Soul Eater can deflect long-range projectiles. In this case, we will not be harmed, but other pirate ships around us will be destroyed."

After listening to Mei Xinghui's words, Aoi was silent for a while, and then said in a slightly more restrained voice:

"You must be careful, understand? Let Grissom keep a close eye on you. He is responsible for this."

"Eh? Why is it him?" Mei Xinghui's voice was a little flustered, "Aoi... Miss Aoi, how come..."

"I don't know anything," Aoi said in a more serious tone. "Anyway, I want to see you at the celebration banquet on Donglin Island. Nothing can happen. Got it?"

"..."

In the room surrounded by bookshelves, Mei Xinghui raised her head, looked at the purple crystal pendants on the roof, and took a deep breath:

"I understand, Miss Aoi."

......

"Boom——"

Red rays of artillery fire fell into the sea, creating violent waves and shaking the hull of the "Blue Reef".

The crystal pendants on the roof kept shaking. Mei Xinghui stared at the pendants blankly and couldn't help but recall the scene when she was talking to Miss Aoi a day ago.

"Mei? Mei? Are you okay?"

Mei lowered her head in shock, and saw Grissom's worried face, so she shook her head slightly:

"I'm fine, it's just..."

Xinghui Meiyi paused, then stood up from the chair and took a deep breath:

"We have to act now."

Mei looked towards the door of the room. There, the knocking sounds continued, accompanied by many hoarse roars:

"Open the door! Come out! Come out!"

"They didn't realize we were here until now, what idiots," Grissom muttered softly, pulling out the samurai sword from his waist, "How about it, Mei, we go with the original plan?"

"Yes," Mei nodded gently, "Follow me."

After saying that, Mei Xinghui pressed the planetarium on the table with one hand, and then turned it quickly -

"Om-"

Suddenly, a book on one side of the bookshelf emitted a faint purple light. Mei walked to the book and gently pulled it out. As she moved, a crack opened at the other end of the bookshelf that was big enough for someone to pass through.

"So that's how you opened your secret passage..." Grissom stared at Mei's every move and shook his head in admiration, "The smartest lady in all of Dila is indeed worthy of her reputation."

"Well... let's go..." Mei pursed her lips in dissatisfaction, "The door won't hold for much longer."

"okay."

Gleason took out a handful of nails from his waist and scattered them at the door of the room. Then, he and Mei went into the secret passage behind the bookshelf and closed the door of the bookshelf.

At the same time, the two heard the sound of the door being broken in and a series of screams, and they smiled softly at the same time.

"How is it? Is this move of teaching value?" Grissom smiled confidently at Mei, "What do you think?"

"Crooked tricks," Mei commented seriously, and immediately grabbed Gleason's sleeve, "Hurry up, Captain Furukawa Watari asked us to finish it within ten minutes."

So, the two of them quickly moved forward in the dark secret passage. After going through a series of twists and turns in the maze, Mei led Grissom to push open another secret door and came to the lower cabin of the "Blue Reef".

The moment the secret door was pushed open, two pirates in black robes turned around and ran towards the two with ferocious faces.

"You've slipped through the net! Go to hell!"

Grissom swung his samurai sword and was about to charge forward when he heard two light gunshots:

"Crack! Crack!"

The two pirates fell to the ground, howling and twitching in pain. Gleason turned his head and found that it was Mei - her hand was raised forward, and a small pistol of Xiuzhen was faintly visible between the sleeves of her court dress, with smoke coming out of the muzzle.

"So you can do this! Why don't you teach me?" Grissom looked at Mei in surprise.

"Special times call for special measures," Mei said, walking past the twisted bodies of the two pirates, "I'm a civil servant, I can't kill."

Looking at the heroic aura emanating from Mei Xinghui's small figure, Grissom felt his heart beating faster and swallowed.

He immediately followed Mei's pace, and when passing by two pirates, he swung his samurai sword, splashing two black blood flowers.

"Ah!"

"..."

Soon, Xinghui Mei led Grissom to a blue curtain. The curtain seemed a bit out of place in the lower cabin, but it would not attract too much attention.

"Lift the curtain, it's time for the boys to do something." Mei Xinghui glanced at Grissom and said.

"okay."

Gleason sheathed his sword, twisted his neck, and then grabbed the heavy curtain with both hands and lifted it fiercely.

"Wow!"

A huge mechanical device with countless pipes suddenly appeared in front of the two people - it was the [Kamistriker]! The pipes on it were already swirling with red light, and it was obviously a rare redstone-driven version!

"It's been a long time since this thing appeared on the Blue Reef," Grissom sighed softly, "The last time was probably during the Academy War... How old was I then?"

Mei Xinghui didn't say anything. She quickly walked to the operating table and quickly calibrated the position. Soon, the [God Strike Cannon] aimed its fire at the side wall of the cabin: behind that was the bottom of the [Yakitsu Troll Soul Eater].

This attack would cause great damage to the Blue Reef, but the bridge and chord would not be able to detect it. And the Yaqi Troll Soul Eater would not be able to defend against a divine cannon at this distance.

"After the hole is broken, seawater will rush in," Mei said softly, "I might not be able to run that fast."

Mei Xinghui's hand holding the joystick was shaking. Before she could continue speaking, Gleason's hand was already on hers:

"I'll carry you on my back, or at worst I can hold you in my arms."

Mei Xinghui turned her head and her violet eyes met those icy blue eyes.

She bit her lip, turned her head and took a deep breath:

"Long live Dila (in Dila)."

"boom--"

......

8) The Last Samurai (Part 11) -Added-

"boom--"

The [God-strike Cannon] that penetrated the bottom of the Blue Reef hit the bottom of the [Yamata Troll Soul-eater] directly. The shock wave caused by the annihilation caused it to shake violently, with a considerable effect.

Only at this distance is it possible to hit the Soul Eater.

"Rumble..."

In the corridor of the prison, a line of people escorted by black-robed crew members swayed and fell to the ground due to the shock. Among them, Hitaro Mama fell heavily to the ground with blood flowing from his mouth.

"Holy shit..."

In a slight dizziness, Shinma Hitaro heard the sharp sound of a sword being unsheathed. The next second, screams swept through, accompanied by the sound of liquid splashing on the wall.

"Ahhhhh!!"

"..."

When Hitaro Mama staggered to his feet, what he saw was the dead black-robed crew members on the ground and Shibata Kazuki who was wiping his knife on them.

"First mate!" Hitaro Mama ran to Shibata Kazuki in tears, "You...you...you...you you..."

"What's wrong with you, little brat?" Shibata Kazuki carefully examined the rusty sword he had pulled out from the waist of the black-robed crewman, then turned his head and said, "Something is wrong. It seems that the [God Strike Cannon] did not penetrate the bottom of the Soul Eater."

"God...God...God cannon?" Mama Hitaro said blankly, "But where did we get it..."

"Everyone," Shibata Kazuki said with his arms wide open to the Blue Reef sailors who were gradually getting up in the corridor, "Pick up the things on the ground, rescue the other crew members, and then go to the deck to support Captain Furukawa Wataru."

"learn!"

The sailors in the corridor immediately took action. They picked up the weapons of the black-robed sailors who had just been killed by Shibata Kazuki, and then gathered and walked towards the upper deck.

Hitaro Mama stared at this scene blankly. Suddenly, his shoulder was tapped. He turned around and saw that it was Kazuki Shibata with a serious face:

"Listen, kid," Shibata Kazuki said quickly, "Follow them, protect yourself, and don't show off your half-baked swordsmanship, okay? Just protect yourself, try your best to help, and don't be a hindrance."

"But...but what about you?" Mama Hitaro stared blankly at Shibata Kazuki, "You're not with us..."

"I still have a mission to accomplish," Shibata Kazuki said calmly, "We must destroy the Soul Eater's bottom here, otherwise he will escape, and we only have this one chance."

After saying that, Shibata Kazuki patted Mama Hitaro on the shoulder again, then sprinted along the prison corridor alone, leaving Mama Hitaro standing there.

......

On the cliff, Perlis saw the red light all over the sky falling into the sea, and also saw the "Yakitsu Soul Eater" and "Blue Reef" looming in the fog.

She raised her head and saw a faint sun shining among the dark clouds above her head. Needle-like rays of sunlight struggled to shine through the gaps in the clouds, as if trying to shine on Panshe City.

But black clouds were still the main color. As one divine cannon after another smashed into the clouds, lightning even gradually began to brew between the black clouds - red lightning.

Really on time...Captain Furukawa To

As she thought of this, a halo lit up in Perlis's eyes and a red line appeared in front of her.

She aimed at a tangled area of ​​factors on the horizon - apparently, the box of shells where she left the redstone had been moved to the fleet of black sailing ships.

As the battle in the distant sea took place, hundreds of black sailing ships gathered in the waters near the port. Most of those black sailing ships were in ruins, but they still exuded a terrifying aura.

Obviously, they saw the situation on the sea and were preparing to provide reinforcements.

Unfortunately, they did not discover the existence of Perlis.

The variable of a war can be a group of people or an individual.

And when this person is the former [Blade of Babel], it is particularly deadly——

"bass--"

A crack of red light flashed on the cliff and then disappeared.
