Chapter 236 Another coincidence?
The mental link was broken, and Beatrice let out a long breath.
She had an indescribable feeling in her heart. The inexplicable link and the stranger speaking from her heart were all things that frightened her.
But working together to find a way to rescue Gwen brought them closer unknowingly.
Although she was also in a desperate situation and could hardly protect herself, she discussed with French Fries and the captain how to find food and how to treat Gwen, which made her temporarily forget her own troubles and felt warm in her heart.
Beatrice couldn't explain what was going on. She was clearly trying to harden her heart, and she would gain nothing by helping the little girl named Gwen, but doing so still made her happy.
She is not without selfish motives, she also wants to take this opportunity to show her strength and expand her influence.
She was the Pope imprisoned in a church, but this link let her know that she was not powerless. At least she saved a little girl, didn't she?
Beatrice stood up from her chair, a smile on her face for the first time in days.
Castel, Hughes also breathed a sigh of relief. Although they didn't get much information today, it was still a welcome progress.
Pulling Gwen into the link was just an accident, but he didn't expect that this little girl would give him so many unexpected surprises.
When Beatrice came in, she was still very alert, but as they discussed how to save Gwen, Hughes could clearly feel that they gradually let down their guard.
Doing bad things together and doing good things together can quickly bring people closer together.
Actually, it was an accident that Beatrice was brought in this time. He wanted to see who else from the Rhine side could be brought in, but he unexpectedly found that there was only Beatrice.
This. Is very strange.
Hughes has many social connections in the Rhine. After all, he is the illegitimate son of a duke. Although he is not welcome in the upper class, he still has many connections. He has many connections in the Duke's territory of Cohen, but why is Beatrice the only one in the Rhine?
The Rhine is obviously the capital of the empire, and there should be more nobles there.
Xius was really confused by this. It was impossible that all those nobles had disappeared.
But this at least brought one benefit. Hughes could accurately bring Beatrice in. Although she had only joined the Candlelight Society not long ago, she was a church member after all, so she was of some help.
And after she knew about Castel's current situation, she would probably contact the Candlelight Society. Hughes also hoped that the Candlelight Society would also help.
There was a knock on the door, and Connor's voice came from outside: "Master, Chloe invites you to the Eastern Test Site."
Zeus sighed. He knew why Chloe came to see him. She probably wanted to leave on the airship.
He was not opposed to exploration. He originally wanted to get more information from the links of several people outside, but at present, several people have been trying to find a way to save Gwen, and they may not talk about Castel in the short term.
It was difficult for him to pull the right person into the link at the moment, so it would be better to let Chloe fly a few laps first.
Even if it's just to take a look at the current situation in various parts of the island, the people of Castel are now trapped in the cathedral and don't know much about the situation on the island.
After destroying the enemy's offensive with bombs last time, the monsters' attacks became much more low-key, but Xius felt vaguely uneasy in his heart. He always felt that this was just the calm before the storm.
Therefore, he has begun to mass-produce motorboats. This flying vehicle that can carry large-yield bombs may have some influence on the war situation.
Research on artillery is also ongoing, and it is said that it is not far from being put into practical use. However, there has been no breakthrough in the fuse technology, and its reliability is currently too low.
The steam rifles of the Banshees can also hold out for a while. Although this weapon uses fewer rounds each time it is used, its power is quite large and can be used as a cannon.
Arriving at the eastern test site, Hughes was somewhat surprised to see the skeletons of three motorboats. Chloe was standing next to one of them with her hands stretched out. Silk threads were constantly flowing out from each of her fingers. These threads were slowly woven into a whole surface of skin, wrapping the airship.
It really looks like a moth spinning silk. Could it grow wings after advancing to this extraordinary path? Chloe also noticed Hughes. She turned her head, and the orange-red light in her eyes was frighteningly bright, like a burning flame.
Xius raised his eyebrows in surprise, and when he saw Chloe stop spinning, the light in his eyes dimmed.
It seems that her eyes light up when she uses her abilities, but unfortunately she cannot be pulled into the link for the time being. The entire island of Castel seems to be blocked, with no connection at all.
"How are the preparations going?"
"Almost done, can I go up and take a look?"
"Go ahead." Hughes sighed, "Who else can make this kind of skin besides you?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"All nymph pathways are possible. This is the most basic silk-spinning process, and everyone can do it." Chloe counted on her fingers. "Richard can actually do it, but he's been in the dissection room all day lately. I don't know what's so good about those corpses. Their bodies are clearly a mess, with not much normal structure at all."
"Except for him, most of the other extraordinary people in the Fire Moth Chaser are here to help. It is not difficult to build airships, but I still dare not build too many at once. It is better to experiment with this completely new thing. Who knows what needs to be improved."
What she said was actually very correct. The airship did need a test flight, but Castel did not have many test flight environments. Outside the wall, there were monsters everywhere. Even if the airship was full of extraordinary people, they might not be able to kill them after landing outside.
This is why Hughes is so cautious.
Seeing him give in, Chloe immediately called Nini and the others to board the airship: "Don't worry, I will be careful. If we really run into trouble, we will try our best to land at the entrance of the webway."
Nini also agreed: "I told Ash, she will bring a team to meet me in the webway. In addition, I also brought two sets of steam rifles. If we really encounter the enemy, we will definitely be able to fight back!"
After saying that, she patted the can on her waist. She had a set of steam rifles on each side. The banshee had six hands and could operate two sets of weapons easily.
"Okay, be careful. If you encounter any problems, contact me via the mind link. Let's go around the island and observe it first."
Nini and Chloe waved at him and stepped into the airship together.
Soon, the airship rose up and gradually turned into a small dot in the air.
"My Lord, the monsters are gathering to attack!" Ash suddenly said in the mind link.
At this time? What a coincidence? Xiu Si frowned and looked up at the airship in the sky. Is this really a coincidence? (End of this chapter)
