"Woo~~~~~"

Amid the hum of motors, three newly built warships with curved bottoms and pointed noses slowly sailed on the surface of the East China Sea near the White Sturgeon Island.

This is the fourth version of the transport cargo ship improved by Master Belit, and its performance has been significantly improved compared to the first version.

It also proves that passion is the best mentor.

On the basic hull, Rosen made some additional power enhancements and added lightning defense runes, turning it from a cargo ship into a medium-sized warship with considerable combat capabilities.

There are three warships, the first one is the flagship, with Rosen personally in charge.

There were fifty combat mages from the Guards in the flagship cabin, and each combat mage was carrying the latest model of Lightning Torrent Crossbow.

The second and third ships each carried fifty fully armed Sun Warriors.

Whether it is a bloody battle or other tactics, this group of Sun Warriors have strong enough combat power.

In addition, there are 80 fish-killing speedboats guarding the surrounding waters.

A naval fleet of the White Sturgeon Island sailed at a moderate speed towards Hank Island, more than 300 kilometers away.

The reason given by Rosen was to take advantage of the annual Tide Festival to visit the Banshee Queen Laertris to discuss the management of the Triangle Sea.

As the fleet advanced steadily, banshees continued to gather above and around the fleet.

They followed the fleet, howling in the sky and leaping forward in the surrounding seas.

They all looked uneasy, but they did not intercept the fleet, let alone attack.

After more than two months of normal trade, the banshees became familiar with the human race on land and accustomed to the existence of the human lords. At the same time, they also felt the character of the human lords from all aspects.

He is willing to communicate well, but he has a clear and firm bottom line.

Once the bottom line is touched, the counterattack of the human lord will be very cruel! The Banshee's aggressiveness is not strong, and facing Rosen's humble and strong character, she has no idea how to deal with it.

So, I couldn't help but give in step by step.

"Clatter~~Clatter~~~"

Amid the sound of air currents, a banshee with pearly blue feathers gradually lowered its altitude, as if trying to land.

The Guards wanted to intercept them, but Rosen raised his hand to stop them: "Let her fall."

The banshee landed on the bow of the warship's flagship. It was the banshee leader encountered in the first transaction.

She is also Frodo's wife, named Dollia.

Compared to the first time she met her, this time she wore leather armor and many accessories, and her whole body had a more civilized feel.

She had an uneasy expression on her face, and after landing on the boat, she looked at Rosen.

"Lord, I still think this is not a good idea. It is too reckless and will make the Queen very angry!"

Rosen, of course, came in person. At this moment, he was sitting in a chair, communicating about the sea situation with the fleet commanders.

Seeing Dollia say this, he smiled and said, "Lady Percy (the last name Frodo gave himself), I will attend the Tide Festival with a friendly attitude. I will be careful and will never anger the Queen."

Dollia shook her head repeatedly: "No, no, no, Queen's Bay is the holy land of our tribe. We never allow outsiders to enter. Besides, you are carrying so many terrible weapons!"

Rosen immediately said, "Oh, of course I respect your tradition, so my fleet will be anchored outside the bay, and I will only bring a guard into the bay."

"No, no, no, even if it's like this, you can't enter. No outsiders are allowed to enter Queen's Bay."

Rosen smiled and said, "I came here with sincerity. These weapons of mine will never attack actively, but only defend and counterattack."

"If the Queen gets angry about my disrespect, I will apologize immediately and leave Hank Island immediately."

"Finally, I will not enter the bay unexpectedly. I will notify the Queen in advance. If the Queen does not allow it, I will definitely not force my way in."

After hearing this, Dollia's expression eased a lot: "If that's the case, then it shouldn't be a big problem."

"The sisters are very worried. I will go and explain the Lord's intentions to them."

"Don't bother. I've already explained it to you before I left."

Then he added: "To show sincerity, the fleet also brought 100 extremely strong warriors. Perhaps Madam can tell this news to your people."

Upon hearing this, Dollia's cheeks immediately turned red, and she couldn't help but say, "Lord, of course the sisters like warriors, but life is not just about warriors. Well, this is indeed very effective."

After she finished speaking, she spread out her arms, which turned into huge wings. She flapped her wings and flew into the sky again to communicate with other banshees.

The message from the 100 Sun Warriors was indeed very effective. One could feel that the Banshees' reactions were noticeably calmer.

Upon seeing this, Rosen immediately contacted the next modified warship and said, "Let all the Sun Warriors go up to the deck and say hello to the girls."

"But be careful, at most give a warm hug, don't do anything on the deck."

Soon, many strong and handsome sun warriors appeared on the deck of the cargo ship, constantly waving to the banshee in the sky.

With their appearance, the banshees' reaction became much more enthusiastic. They flew around the cargo ship and screamed excitedly.

Some of the banshees even wanted to land directly on the deck.

Fearing that the situation would get out of control, Rosen quickly turned on the lightning loudspeaker and shouted, "Warm and beautiful ladies of the deep sea, these warriors are a gift to the queen."

"As a sign of respect, don't exhaust their energy before meeting the Queen."

The queen still has a very high reputation among the banshees. After she shouted like this, the banshees became much more reserved and at least they no longer fell on the deck.

But they still clung to the edge of the boat, winking and whistling at the Sun Warriors they liked, just like a group of female hooligans.

Thus, under the escort of a large group of banshees, the fleet safely crossed a distance of more than 300 kilometers and arrived at the outskirts of Hank Island.

When you get here, you can see countless mermen densely packed in the sea, and the banshees in the sky are even more densely packed, flying in formation, like a huge flock of birds.

If the two sides clashed at this location, it would definitely be a terrible battle.

The faces of the fleet soldiers were all solemn.

Rosen immediately gave the order: "Slow down the ship, show a friendly attitude, and don't make any provocative moves!"

The fleet he brought this time is very powerful. If a real fight breaks out, it will naturally cause huge damage to the banshees and murlocs, but it will definitely also suffer huge damage itself, and may even be wiped out.

A lose-lose situation is not what Rosen wants.

He brought the fleet not for slaughter but to show that he was qualified to negotiate.

Look at these banshees and murlocs, what a great aerial and underwater force.

If he could use it for his own benefit, it would directly double his naval power.

The boat slowed down a lot and gradually approached the entrance of Queen's Bay.

It can be seen that after the holy land was threatened, the banshees gradually became sensitive.

They kept closing in on the fleet, making shrill noises to drive them away.

The murlocs in the sea also gradually gathered together. Although most of them were ordinary murlocs, many high-level murloc mages could also be seen.

Fearing an accidental discharge of his gun, Rosen immediately issued an order: "Stop advancing!"

The fleet stopped.

Rosen walked to the bow, picked up the loudspeaker and shouted: "I am the Lord of Sturgeon Island. I come with great goodwill and great respect for the Queen."

After shouting, Rosen waited patiently.

About half an hour later, suddenly a team of twenty banshees with pearl blue feathers flew towards the fleet in an orderly manner.

After reaching the sky above the fleet, one of the banshees shouted to the flagship, "Who is Rosen, Lord of the White Sturgeon Island? Stand out."

Rosen was secretly alert and walked onto the bow deck: "It's me."

He also observed the other party carefully and found that although this banshee's body was still young and plump, her eyes were much calmer and more mature than those passionate banshees.

The body can be kept young by magic, but the soul is difficult to disguise.

If the total lifespan of a person's soul is set at 100 years, then this banshee should be over 70 years old.

Considering the magical aura that the other party exudes, which is as high as the peak of the fourth level, it is enough to prove that the other party is a high-ranking figure of the banshee clan.

Rosen guessed that she should be a close minister to the queen.

The banshee spoke, her voice slightly hoarse: "The Queen has ordered that if you really come with sincerity, you should not stand on your fleet."

"You followed us into the bay alone."

"You are not allowed to carry any instruments or wear any clothes. Just treat us as we treat you. Be honest and open with us."

Upon hearing this, the fleet's deputy commander Harry was unwilling to do so and immediately walked to Rosen's side: "Lord, this is too risky."

Who knows what's going on in the bay? Who knows what the queen on the other side is planning? The witch spoke again.

"If that is not possible, please go back the same way, Lord. Trade can continue as usual, and the girls can still like the warriors, but there will be no more in-depth communication."

In the past, Rosen really wouldn't have dared to respond, but after a month of careful preparation, he had gained full confidence.

He was confident that if the talks failed and the queen wanted to harm him, he would be able to break through the encirclement and escape.

But if the deal is successful, the rewards will be very, very huge.

Thinking of this, Rosen couldn't help but think of the Saint Weilan five hundred years ago.

She must have had similar ideas when she went to the north to negotiate with the three sages of the Kingdom of Set.

Weilan must have known that the risk was extremely huge, but after weighing the pros and cons, she still chose to take the risk.

This is the price a high-level wizard must pay to start a kingdom.

Because precious strategic opportunities are fleeting and will not give you time to prepare comfortably.

Otherwise, you can only watch the changing situation and be an insignificant spectator.

Life is nameless, death is nameless.

Rosen didn't want to be a spectator. If a man doesn't fight the raging waves, but lets his time waste away, what's the difference between this and living in vain? So he laughed and strode onto the deck.

"Since the Queen has said so, I will naturally obey all of it~~~"

Standing at the bow, he took off his sword and clothes, and opened his arms: "I can't fly, so I'll trouble the ladies to take me for a ride."

A hint of surprise appeared in the banshee's weathered eyes.

"My Lord, you are truly courageous. In that case, I will carry you on my back."

She flapped her arms, came to the bow, stood in front of Rosen and half-crouched, "Lord, hold on tight."

Rosen lay on her back. The first feeling he had was that her skin was very smooth. The second feeling he had was that it was very powerful and filled with vigorous vitality.

I thought to myself: "No wonder the Sun Warriors are willing to marry the Banshee, her vitality is really strong."

Come to think of it, with an excellent physique selected since childhood and surfing in the sea every day, it is hard not to be strong.

The banshee spread her arms and took off easily, carrying Rosen all the way, and flew into the Queen's Bay under the escort of a group of powerful banshees who showed high-level magical powers.

Rosen has asked Lai Fu to raise the "Heart of the God of War" to the highest alert level. As long as any unusual movement is detected, he will immediately show the steel dragon body that he has carefully improved, turn around and start running away.

Fortunately, no abnormalities have been found so far.

"Clatter~~Clatter~~~"

"Hmm~~~Oh~~~Oh~Hmm~"

Amid the air currents and the screams of banshees, Rosen gradually entered the Queen's Bay.

The bay is approximately a perfect circle with a diameter of about three kilometers. The water is very deep, estimated to be more than 500 meters.

The merman algae nests that I saw last time were still there, but they had all been pushed to the side. In the water in the central sea area, countless banshees could be seen swimming around.

There were countless banshees in the sky, roaring in and roaring away.

The entire Queen's Bay is filled with a strong exotic atmosphere.

Soon, the banshee brought Rosen to the innermost part of Queen Bay.

There is a large stretch of white sandy beach here, with many banshees lying or standing on the beach.

They looked lazy, but they were actually forming a big circle.

In the middle of the circle stood a short woman with pearly blue hair.

The reason why she is called short is that she is just 1.7 meters tall, and looks petite next to a group of tall and plump banshees who are 1.89 meters tall.

But only her body is petite; her soul is an incomparable giant.

Seventh ring of magic power, it was the first time that Rosen had seen someone stronger than six rings of magic power since he came to this world.

If placed in the "History of Natural Gods", he can be called a legendary strongman.

Obviously, this is the Banshee Queen Laertris.

Judging from her soul breath, her soul lifespan is probably in her early thirties. She is still young. If she relies on sleeping to prolong her lifespan and does not encounter any major changes, she can live another thousand years without any problem.

"Plop~~"

Rosen jumped off the banshee's back and landed steadily on the white sand beach.

The two sides stared at each other from a distance of dozens of meters.

At this moment, no one moved, not even blinking.

Rosen felt that his opponent was on full alert, and he himself was in the same state.

High-level mages each have their own unique skills.

Just like the king chess piece in victory chess, during the game, the king does not see the king. If the king sees the king, it is the end of the game.

At this moment, any misjudgment could lead to the fall of the king.

After staring at each other for about ten seconds, the Banshee Queen Laertris spoke first.

"Haha~~~~ The Iron Dragon has produced an amazing descendant. He is very powerful and courageous. He even dared to enter the lair of his old enemy alone."

Her tone was extremely cold.
