Chapter 230 Spider
"Governor, in this war, although we are the home court, the opponent's strength is too strong. Various weapons that have never been seen are emerging in an endless stream. Our navy is almost unable to hold on. There are only three Royal Giants left."
Listening to the subordinates in front of him, Daniel clenched his hands, and the flesh on his face twitched slightly.
From the moment the first gunfire sounded, Daniel knew that this day would come, but this day came too soon.
He has many good players under his command, but the opponent's machine that can fly in the sky is too hard to guard against.
When the battle situation expands to a full-scale battlefield, unless the strength reaches the level of Julio, the governor of Cat Island, the personal strength will be compressed to the minimum.
"Hire those guys from the Explorers' Association to requisition all fishing boats and cargo ships. Recruit young and middle-aged people on the island to board the boat. Judging from the interception of the enemy's telegram, they are also supporting, and now they are fighting for logistics."
"Master Governor, there have been some voices on the island recently. They feel that they may surrender now..."
"Touch!" The wooden table was directly smashed, and Daniel's roar echoed in the room.
"Then tell those cowards that He Fangdao will never surrender unless I die!!"
Daniel's chest rose and fell rapidly, did those short-sighted people get dizzy? If surrender was useful, he would have surrendered.
The rule of Dihai is always that the winner takes all, and the benefits obtained by flattery will only be easily taken away by the winner again in the end.
"Who?" Daniel suddenly raised his head and looked towards the door.
When he saw Margaret walking in from the door, the expression on his face softened instantly.
"Oh, it's my pearl. I heard that boy Jack said that you have done a very good job at sea these days."
At this time, Margaret's face was less innocent and more firm. The cruel war has a huge impact on a person.
"Father, brother asked me to bring this over." The girl handed over a document in her hand.
"Well, I got it. You are defending at ease in the east of the island. I will support you on the front line. You will never let them occupy Cavendish's island." Daniel reached out and took it.
"Well, I believe my lord father, my lord father is invincible!" Margaret nodded.
"This is my good daughter."
A trace of bitterness appeared in the corners of Margaret's eyes, "I used to be disobedient when I was a child, and often made my father angry. Now I understand that the only ones who treat me sincerely in the world are my own family."
Looking at the girl in front of him, Daniel showed a gratified smile on his face, "The pearl of our family has finally grown up."
The relationship between the father and daughter who had quarreled when they met in the past finally warmed up again. While the father and daughter were talking, a soldier ran in with a scroll.
"Your Excellency, this is a letter sent by the enemy just now."
Daniel opened the scroll and saw that the smile on his face became brighter and brighter. "Hahaha, today's good things really happened one after another."
"What's written on it, Father?" Margaret asked curiously.
"That boy Swan couldn't hold on any longer. He agreed to negotiate overseas tomorrow morning."
Generally in this situation, whoever speaks first basically means admitting defeat.
The next morning, all the remaining warships of Hefang Island lined up on the sea surface, and Daniel, the governor of Hefang Island, stood with his children on the Royal Giant in the middle.
On the deck, Jack was smoking a cigar leisurely, and he used the side of the boat to smoke ash. "Fighting for so long is finally over. I will take a good rest this time when I go back."
"Don't rush to rest!! If Swan can't give a satisfactory answer, this matter is not over yet!" Daniel's voice was filled with suppressed anger.
Time passed little by little, but the fleet of the British Isles still disappeared, and Daniel gradually became impatient. "Is this kid cheating on me? What's the point of doing this!"
Margaret asked with some concern: "Father, will he attract my attention here?? Then sneak attack from other places?"
Jack shook his head. "Impossible, other places on the island, I have already arranged the fast shuttle boat."
Having said that, Jack still asked people to check the situation.
Soon the news came back, and there were no enemy ships within 50 kilometers around Hefang Island.
"Hmph! This guy may be so scared that he doesn't even dare to negotiate. If this embarrassing thing gets out, I'll see how he will mess around in the North Sea in the future. Let's go back. Your mother hasn't seen you for a long time."
Daniel on the deck walked towards the cabin as he said that. He didn't take a few steps until he saw his daughter and son standing there in a daze, their eyes slightly open looking at the distant sea.
When he turned around, he was surprised to find that a blurred white light appeared on the previously dark sea.
As the light slowly approached, everyone on the ship opened their mouths wide in surprise. It was not a searchlight of a ship, but a mechanical city with a diameter of two to three kilometers.
Thick black smoke continuously emerges from the chimneys between the tall buildings, and the complex and unimaginably complex metal gear structure is spliced into the city's footwall.
Ten metal giant legs protruded from both sides of the entire city and plunged into the dark sea water. Make the whole city look like a giant spider.
Hundreds of ships followed the giant spider and slowly moved towards He Fang Island.
In front of this horrifying spider, He Fangdao's Royal Giant is like a toy at this time.
"This...what the hell is this!! Even the most advanced turbine can't support such a large machine!!" Jack shouted excitedly.
Daniel's neck was like a rusty bearing, and he slowly turned around to look at his son. The current Governor He Fang had a thick layer of despair on his face. "Take your sister and go! Immediately!"
With a "click", a brass box with a black lens fell from the sky and fell in front of Daniel.
"Isn't this the former overlord of the North Sea, Mr. Daniel? Why doesn't he look so good now?" The extremely proud voice of the Governor of the British Isle, Swan, came from the brass box.
Daniel reached out to pick up the box, and he spoke with difficulty. "Swan, you have won, He Fang Island and the other two islands are now yours."
"Hahaha!! I'm so happy to hear you say this, I almost let you go."
"Kaka" the camera shrinks slightly, and turns to Margaret next to her. "Daniel, your daughter is so beautiful. I wanted to keep it for use. Unfortunately, she belongs to the Cavendish family, so I can only send your family on the road together."
"Buzz~" A pipe protruded from the lower section of the mechanical city toward this side, and a white light appeared in the front section of the pipe, and it became brighter and brighter.
"Have you forgotten the agreement of the Explorers Association! I have already handed over the island! You must release my family members!!"
"The rules of the Explorers' Association no longer need to be followed, because they are outdated. You don't know how amazing technology I got. With those things, the entire Earth Sea is mine!"
