"So every time I board the magic warship, I bring the officers and soldiers on board some of the latest entertainment products from the outside world. These things make them happier than being given money... Don't you all agree?"
"Yes!" xN
The officers and soldiers naturally responded enthusiastically, some even laughing loudly as they said:
"Moreover, Miss has excellent taste. The things you gave us are basically our favorite things to look at!"
"Oh, Miss, you spoil them too much."
Enoch was probably used to this scene by now, and simply glared at the soldiers who were beaming with delight as they held their new entertainment gadgets:
"As a member of the Federation Army, you can't even endure loneliness, you're truly useless!"
"Uncle Enoch, you're being too demanding of them. Life on the ship is much harsher than on land. How can they survive without some entertainment? A balance between work and rest is essential for a person's mental well-being."
After speaking, Emery looked at the officers and soldiers with a spirited expression:
"So, what do you all think? Am I right? After using the gifts I gave you, wouldn't it be no problem for you to go straight to the Shadow Mist Forest and attack the Elf King's capital?"
"of course!"
Immediately, a boastful soldier grinned and said:
"Just say the word, Miss, and we'll attack Shadowmist Forest tonight and bring back the Elf Queen to warm your bed tomorrow!"
"The Elf Queen is a bit of an exaggeration... If you really think like that, you'll probably end up staying in the Elf King's palace and warming the beds of those old women who are thousands of years old."
Amelie smiled and glanced at Viliana again:
"But the Elven royal guard is indeed of good quality. Not only are the members all beautiful women, but they are also quite clean, which suits my taste... Don't you agree, Anna?"
“You’re right, Master.”
Anna's continued attire of a black robe and hood concealed her elven identity.
“The members of the Elf Royal Guard are indeed very suitable to be your slaves…and I happen to know quite a bit about them. If I have the chance, I will definitely get you a few more new toys.”
"Haha, I'll be looking forward to it."
Emerald also squinted her eyes and made a toying gesture with her finger.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The officers and soldiers burst into laughter, and the ship was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
However, his joy lasted only a few minutes before Enoch turned stern and, in a reprimanding tone, sent the officers and men back to their posts. He then invited Amelie and her entourage to his captain's lounge.
Emery, familiar with the place, found her favorite black tea in a cabinet in the corner of the captain's lounge and waved to Enoch:
"The same as always, Uncle Enoch, you can go ahead and get busy. Next up is the girls' tea party."
"it is good."
Enoch was clearly not new to this kind of thing. He briefly explained the current position and speed of the Merson III to Emery before leaving.
Judy's troops were fighting the demonic tide quite far from Locke City, almost across half the Federation. At the speed of the Merson III, it would take about 6 hours to get Emery and the others home.
Of course, magical warships are equipped with large teleportation magic arrays, allowing them to teleport directly to designated coordinates and join the battlefield in emergencies, just like this support mission. However, this teleportation magic is very expensive, and the teleportation process is quite bumpy, so it's unnecessary to go home.
Seeing that Julia was still very curious about many aspects of the magical warship, Amelie explained the relevant knowledge to her while drinking tea, and even compared the history recorded by the Federation and the Elves from different perspectives with Viliana.
Regardless of the world or civilization, war is the greatest catalyst for technological progress, and this world is no exception.
The magical warship was born during the war between humans and elves. It was one of the major turning points in the war, giving the already advantageous humans a significant boost. Their army crossed the Emerald Strait to reach the southern continent where the Misty Forest was located and headed straight for the elven capital.
The elven archmages were blown up by the magic warships.
With three to five fusion-stage mages cooperating on the magic warship, the elven archmages would be absolutely unable to defeat them.
No matter how exquisite the spells and spellcasting techniques the elven archmages displayed, they would be shattered by brute force from stronger magic shields and more powerful magical bombardments. In addition, the special abilities and innate magic of the fusion-stage mages with their various fused organs left them with virtually no weaknesses.
Even if multiple elven archmages attempt to cast spells in unison, the human alliance can counter them by stacking shields on multiple magic warships and firing their cannons simultaneously.
In short, with the help of magical technology, humans used pure numerical values to crush all the skills of the elves.
The Federation army was at its most triumphant when all five of its magical warships, along with more than 20 fusion-stage mages who accompanied it, surrounded the Elven capital, besieging it and intending to completely destroy the elven civilization that had existed for tens of thousands of years and capture all the elves to use as slaves and toys.
There are few details recorded by the Federation, and even Emery is not very clear about them. All that is known is that the Federation army repeatedly called out to the elves before the attack, asking them to surrender.
The elves recorded it in more detail. In fact, the Elven Royal Guard often used details of this history to brainwash new members during ideological education, inciting hatred towards humans in their hearts... Viliana received a lot of this kind of education.
However, the historical details recorded by the elves should be true. Viliana saw a magical video recording of the Federation army besieging the city when she was in the Royal Guard training camp.
Humans back then really knew how to play... or perhaps they had accumulated too much hatred in the past. In any case, the Federation army at the time made no attempt to hide their malice in wanting to humiliate the elves.
They didn't just make the elves surrender; they demanded that all the elves in the elven capital wear slave collars and crawl out on their stomachs like dogs to undergo a thorough investigation by the federal officers and soldiers at the front.
The elves must have been furious, as many of them still had backbone, but there was nothing they could do about it.
Because too many great mages had perished under the firepower of magic warships in the previous war, the remaining fighting force in the capital was simply insufficient to resist the Federation army.
No matter how you look at it, humanity would have won back then.
Then the Elf Queen, who existed only in legends within the Elf race, made her move.
No one knows exactly what happened. No one could find detailed information about Amelie in any of the Federation's records, and the same was true for Viliana in the Elven Court.
The only clear thing is that two of the Federation's five magic warships were instantly destroyed, and six fusion-stage mages were killed and three were seriously injured.
Given such a significant disparity in strength, one would expect that none of the Federation troops would have returned. However, not only did the survivors return, but they also signed a peace treaty with the Elves, which continues to this day.
What exactly happened after the Elf Queen's first thunderous attack? Ameliete had been trying to find out, but she couldn't find the truth.
This event was only briefly mentioned in the background of the original game, without any further description, but Emery always felt that it was quite important and that there must be a big secret involved, which unfortunately could not be deciphered for the time being.
After the war, the Melson family did not stop producing magical warships. Instead, they produced four more, which, together with the three that had been through the war, made up the current Melson I to VII, a total of seven magical warships.
Of these seven magical warships, three remain permanently stationed in the Emerald Strait to guard against any unusual movements by the elves, while the other three constantly patrol the skies above the White Sea, escorting cargo ships that cross its east and west coasts to conduct business.
Deep within the White Sea, there are also many powerful monsters. When facing these monsters, surface ships are often at a disadvantage, far less useful than magic warships that can directly bombard the deep sea from high altitudes. Therefore, when merchant ships encounter powerful monsters, magic warships are the main force for rescue.
Three are permanently stationed in the Emerald Strait, three patrol the White Sea, and the remaining magic warship is naturally responsible for handling emergencies within the Federation's territory, just like the Merson III this time... Of course, the magic warship responsible for the Federation's territory will not always be the Merson III, but will be rotated among several ships.
"Ahhh... No matter what, the magic battleship is just too cool..."
After hearing the story, Yulia sighed and swayed restlessly.
Because there were only girls in the room at the moment, Yulia was quite unrestrained. She had already taken off her shoes while listening to the story, and her long legs, wrapped in white stockings, stretched out, her little feet playfully darting around like a cat's paws.
At that moment, because of her exclamation, Julia's white-stockinged foot accidentally touched Amelie's calf wrapped in black stockings. Amelie's face immediately turned red, and she tried to pull her foot back as if she had been electrocuted.
But it was too late. Emery reacted much faster, clamping her two legs, both covered in black stockings, together and trapping Julia's playful white-stockinged feet, making it impossible for her to escape.
"Ugh... Emeralt, you're teasing me again..."
Yulia pouted and complained, but her feet had already given up resisting, letting Amelie hold her feet between her legs.
"correct……"
After selectively ignoring what happened to her feet, Julia looked at Emerald's face:
“Speaking of which, Emery, you’re so rich, your family can even build magic warships, have you ever thought about building one of those ships for fun? It doesn’t have to be as big as the Melson III, about the size of a magic-powered vehicle would be fine… These flying vehicles are so cool, aren’t they?”
"Oh, you mean those small civilian magic airships... Actually, I do have one. It's called the Emerald. It's a small magic airship that's a little over 9 meters long. The layout inside is pretty much like a hotel room. It's quite comfortable."
While gently rubbing Julia's foot with her calf through two layers of silk, Amelie said with a hint of reminiscence:
"That was a birthday present my father gave me when I was 11 years old. After I received it, I stayed in the sky for almost half a month before reluctantly landing back home."
"Hey? Emery, you have one? Then I've never seen you use it."
Yulia immediately became interested:
"When will it open so I can go up and stay for a few days?"
"Because I'm currently in the trial phase of starting my own business."
Emery shrugged:
"The price of the magic airship is too high. Even a small one is far from being my personal belongings... If I were to use one to start a business, I could easily get a lot of start-up capital by mortgaging it to any bank. That's why the old folks at home banned it."
"But it should be fine now."
Seeing Julia's immediate disappointment, Amelie smiled indulgently and said:
"My career is starting to take off now. Even if I have another private magic airship, it will just be icing on the cake. The old folks at home probably won't say anything more... If you have the chance, Julia, you can come back to my hometown with me and sail the Emerald to Locke City together."
"Great!"
Yulia then cheered excitedly, her toes stiffening, and deliberately used easily misunderstood language to shout:
"Let's go to Amelie's hometown and drive an Amelie!"
. . . . .
After more than six hours of smooth flight, the Merson III arrived over Locke.
Amidst the curious gazes of countless Locke City residents on the street, Julia didn't wait for the guiding beam of the Melson III to activate before opening the hatch and flying out. Hovering in the air, she laughed heartily and waved to the city's inhabitants:
"Hi everyone! Did you miss me? I'm back!"
"It's Miss Julia who's back!"
The residents of Locke City then realized what the magic warship was up to.
It's quite a coincidence that this magical warship is called the Melson III, and there happens to be a young lady in Locke City with the surname Melson.
As expected, under the watchful eyes of the city's residents, the Merson III finally hovered above the Blue Star Film and Television building, lowered its guiding beam, circled Locke City once more, and then flew far away.
"So, you get escorted by a Federation military magic warship every time you go out? No wonder she's the eldest daughter of the Melson family... It's still hard to believe that such a big shot would come to a small city like Locke City to develop her career."
A resident of Locke City couldn't help but sigh.
"Yeah yeah."
The person next to him chimed in:
"That's Melson... Melson and Lohid, their status in our Federation should be similar to that of the royal family of that ancient country east of the White Sea, right? I wonder if the princesses there have the same pomp and circumstance as Miss Melson when they travel?"
"If we have to talk about etiquette and pomp, then of course the royal princesses are on a higher level."
Immediately, knowledgeable people also joined the discussion:
"But the only one who can travel by magic warship is probably our young lady, since no one else can build a magic warship... Hahahaha."
"That's right, that's a magic warship!"
"Young Miss Niu Bi!"
More and more people joined the discussion, and in the end, everyone laughed with pride.
The Federation's far-leading magical technology will always be its proudest asset.
. . . . .
Upon returning to Locke City, Emery immediately began editing and producing her new film.
The two original movie theaters in Locke City are almost finished, and Amelie really wants them to have a new movie showing on opening day.
This time, Badis is truly preparing for battle. Her 300 street warriors have been selected and are ready to fight in Champs-Élysées at any time.
However, there are nuances to this phenomenon of gang members entering the territory of other factions in large numbers.
It's impossible for 300 people to drive a convoy of magic-powered vehicles and head straight there, nor is it possible for 300 people to book a hotel in Champs-Élysées and go wherever they want to kill someone.
As the art of war says, the first step is planning, and this principle remains the same everywhere.
In order to avoid attracting the attention of other forces, Badis needs to split her 300 street warriors into multiple groups and enter in batches.
Some people would disguise themselves as temporary workers running errands for traveling merchants, some would disguise themselves as tourists, and some would disguise themselves as ordinary beggars and homeless people.
After entering Champs-Élysées, they would conceal their identities and acclimatize for a few days, while also scouting and confirming intelligence on certain targets.
After all, Emerald's intelligence comes from a higher level, and this level of intelligence is often inaccurate when it comes to information from the lower levels. Badis's caution is necessary.
Once everyone has adapted to the new environment and the reconnaissance is complete, and the time is ripe, Batiste will launch a thunderous operation in Champs-Élysées at night, using a bloody massacre to pave the way for the White River Gang's entry into Champs-Élysées.
"Speaking of which... what did you gain from this military mission, Batiste?"
During one of Batdis's site visit progress reports, Emery, who was editing her new film, casually asked:
"If you think there are any tactics or equipment in the military that are useful and can be replicated in your next operation, you can tell me... I should be able to help you with both the equipment and the personnel involved."
"Well... then I won't stand on ceremony, Miss."
Badis hesitated for less than a second before she really became quite impolite.
She really dared to ask for it, saying she wanted to get a few giant crabs and flying skateboards, claiming that with these she could absolutely crush all the gangs in Champs-Élysées without taking any damage.
