Arknights is too real, right?

The sea seems to be endless, and everything as far as the eye can see is covered in blue.

Xia Feng had witnessed this scenery before, and at this moment, he was returning along the route he had taken to Victoria.

The Haimen Gang's cargo ship is full of power and is currently the most advanced Originium drive.

When they came before, the ship was swaying at sea for more than ten days, but now this ship can save almost several times the time.

As we get further and further away from land, communication becomes difficult. Penguin Logistics' information is intermittent, and the signals of mobile phones and other communication equipment are also extremely poor.

On the deck, Xia Feng asked a brother from the Haimen Gang.

"How long will it take to arrive?"

This man wore a turban, and his skin was tanned due to years of sailing.

"Brother Feng, it will take at least 2 days. The wind on the deck is too strong. Stop standing here. Go back and rest more."

It's winter now, and the biting cold sea breeze and humid air make people shiver.

Xia Feng looked at the thin figure on the bow of the boat.

"Ifrit, the wind is too strong, come in first."

Seeing Ifrit didn't respond, Xia Feng raised his voice.

"Ifrit, Ifrit, do you hear me? Come in and have something to eat. If you want to save Hemo, everyone must obey the command. This is an order."

The thin figure slowly stood up from the bow of the ship. Ifrit lowered his head and walked into the cabin without saying a word.

In the simple kitchen on the ship.

There was a cup of hot milk and two slices of bread on the table in front of Ifrit, but she didn't move a bite.

Xia Feng sat opposite her.

"Eat quickly, it will cool down in a while."

A small voice came from Ifrit's mouth.

"Hemo, is she already dead?"

After hearing her words, Xia Feng immediately blamed him.

"You naughty kid, what are you talking about?"

"It's all because of me, right?"

Xia Feng pursed his lips.

"No matter what the reason is, we are all in the same group. There is no causal relationship between this matter. It is just the only way to success. Do you understand?"

"don't know."

After leaving the cold laboratory, Ifrit, who has lived in Victoria for nearly a year, undoubtedly knows more than before.

But because your mind is broadened, the more you understand, the more you don’t understand.

Of course Xia Feng knew that nothing could happen to Helmer. Before he and Ifrit appeared in Rhine Life's sight, Helmer was the biggest bargaining chip.

But Ifrit obviously doesn't understand. She only knows that in the value of Rhine life, life is extremely cheap. Once it loses its usable value, there is no need to exist.

As far as she understood it, the situation was straightforward.

Because Hemer let her go, now Hemer is being punished, simple as that.

Seeing Ifrit's disappointed look, Xia Feng felt very distressed.

In the Black Feather family, apart from Turtle, he has spent the longest time with Ifrit. He has also watched her grow up and has a very good understanding of her temperament and character.

In his knowledge, Ifrit would never show such an expression. Even when facing the deep sea monsters and swarming enemies, she would always laugh crazily.

But now, that innocent smile disappeared from her face, replaced only by a haze.

Xia Feng didn't know if this was considered the price of growth. He only knew that he had to bring Hemo and the others back to Victoria safely.

"Ifrit."

"kindness."

"I will definitely rescue Hemo. No, we will rescue Hemo and everyone safely together. Didn't you say that you would let Hemo see the Christmas tree you planted in the yard and the Christmas tree you raised? Xiao Mo."

"kindness"

Xia Feng stood up, walked to Ifrit and touched her head.

"Okay, okay, Hemo will be fine. Eat quickly. How will you have the strength to save people if you don't eat enough?"

While talking, Xia Feng tore the bread into small pieces and stuffed them into her mouth.

Two days later, there was heavy fog on the sea. Because of the experienced crew, there would be no deviation in the direction.

Just like the brothers of the Haimen Gang said, through the fog, they quickly saw the land.

Everyone stood on the deck. At the end of their sight, the outline of the port gradually became clearer. They finally arrived.

At this time, the port has been blocked by Black Steel, stopping all freight and ordinary ships from calling the port.

Xia Feng's ship quickly approached the dock, and with the anchor fixed, the ship finally stopped.

Ogul did not come in person. The person responsible for handling the situation at Black Steel was Xia Feng's old acquaintance, Captain Rota.

"Brother Luota, thank you for your hard work."

"You are the ones who have worked hard."

Without any unnecessary pleasantries, the weapons and equipment on the ship were quickly unloaded, and all combatants disembarked.

Franka and Razer said they would go back to the headquarters to report the situation and then come back to meet up. Xia Feng expressed their understanding.

After all, they are Black Steel's people after all. For such a big operation, Black Steel must know the details.

But Xia Feng is not worried. With his friendship and various cooperation with Ogur, it is impossible for Black Steel to not help him at all. It is just a question of how much help he can get.

"Didi didi."

At this time, Xia Feng's phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number. It seemed that the signal was gradually restored after docking.

Xia Feng picked up immediately.

"Hi, I'm Xia Feng."

The voice on the other side of the phone was respectful.

"Lord Xia Feng, this is the Imperial Yuan Council. I am informing you that there will be an important meeting of nobles in two days and you need to come to Londinium to attend."

"I'm not free, hang up."

"Wait a moment."

The person on the other side of the phone was a bit embarrassed.

"Lord Xia Feng, this meeting is very important. Princess Weilin has given an order that you must attend. It is about the infected people in the south."

Xia Feng frowned.

"What about the south and the north? I'm not in Victoria right now."

"Ah? Where are you?"

"I'm traveling abroad. I won't be back for ten days and a half. Please take a leave of absence for me and the princess. That's it, hang up."

"Hey, wait"

Xia Feng hung up the phone decisively.

He no longer cares about the Imperial Yuan Council, and Wei Lin's face is useless.

Here in another country, we are already preparing to fight tooth and nail, but there is still a meeting with him there. What a nonsense. Let’s go back alive first.

To be honest, this operation was very hasty and sudden. It can be said that there was no prediction or arrangement other than combat effectiveness.

But there is nothing we can do about it.

What Xia Feng can be sure of now is that Hemo's life is safe before he appears, but with each passing second, Hemo and the others have no way of knowing what they are going through.

The same goes for Bai Gugu and the others. They are not combatants. They do not have excellent physical fitness and endurance. If it drags on, it will only make people more and more impatient.

It was a torment for him and Ifrit.

So at this moment, there are no conditions for long-term planning. No matter the attitude of the Colombian military or the situation in Victoria, we can't control it now.

All the rest will have to wait until Hemo is rescued. Strength is the last word.

As for the subsequent troubles, they will be dealt with if they can be dealt with, and if they can't be dealt with, they will be brought down. There is no reason to stop Black Feather's rescue operation.
