Heaven’s Intention

November 3, for most people on this continent. This is an ordinary day.

But for the citizens of Derby Kingdom, this is an unusual day.

November 3rd is the day of the founding of the Derby Kingdom. It is a festival unique to the Derby Kingdom, and the autumn harvest festivals of other kingdoms are not held immediately after the autumn harvest.

Its holding time will be later.

On this day, the entire Derby Kingdom will be immersed in an atmosphere of warm celebration.

Except for the necessary military defense, other functional organizations will have a day off!

On this day, the coastal areas of the Derby Kingdom also began to celebrate this festival.

Starting in the morning, various celebrations will be staged lively on the streets, and will continue until late at night.

Except for the guards and patrol soldiers, everyone went home for the holiday.

It is like this every year, and this kind of unfair treatment will inevitably make the garrison staff feel dissatisfied.

There is a coastal territory in the Derby Kingdom, Qit County, which not only has a port, but also a passage to the inland area. Most of the navy of the Derby Kingdom is stationed here.

Because of the task of protecting them, it is impossible for them to spend their days leisurely like others, even during this national festival.

Captain, go out? Bring us some food by the way!

I was on duty at the coastal checkpoint today, and there happened to be a captain of a patrol ship. Seeing that it was getting dark, after midnight, there was no food to supplement. The night was really sad. , really stood up and said that he wanted to go out for a trip.

As soon as he said he wanted to go out, the soldiers in his group asked him to bring some food back.

It was only a captain like him who dared to sneak out for a while while on duty, but ordinary soldiers did not dare.

As the captain walked out, he waved his hand back a few times: Don't worry, when did I, Xiding, forget you?

Hey, the captain is the best!

Thank you Captain!

In the kingdom of Derby,

The treatment of each level of soldier is very different.

For example, Xiding, who is going out, as the captain of a small patrol ship, his salary is more than the sum of those soldiers, and sometimes he goes out to buy some food. He just carried some by the way, and he didn't care too much about the small money.

After leaving the checkpoint, Xiding went to the market first, and he was a little dazed by the bustling scene.

People like us can't see this kind of festival. Muttering, Xiding squeezed through the crowd and walked out of the main street. He first spent a few copper coins to buy some meat at the meat stall, and then I went to the grocery store to buy some fruit wine, then walked west along this road, turned a corner, and plunged into the next street.

The last house on the street only lived with a young woman. At this time, she had just washed her clothes and was drying them in the yard.

Suddenly I heard someone knocking on the door, hurried to the door, and asked softly, Who?

Dinah, it's me. I'm Xiding. There was a quick response from outside.

Why are you so late today? The young woman had a joyful expression on her face, and quickly opened the door to welcome Xiding in.

Don't mention it, I wanted to come here earlier, but an officer checked the post once, and I endured it until they all returned home. Then I came out. See what I brought you, meat and wine, you have dinner Xiding said with a smile, until this time, he didn't notice that the lover who put on the festive costume looks extraordinarily good-looking today.

He couldn't help admiring: Dinah, you are so beautiful.

Dinah blushed slightly. Give it to me, I'll cook for you.

With that said, he took the meat and fruit wine from Xiding, and went into the kitchen with a blushing face.

Xiding often came here, went straight into the room, sat in the living room and waited.

It's ready, let's eat together. After a while, Dinah came in from the outside carrying a tray.

The tray was put down, several stacks of vegetables were removed from the top and put away, and the warm fruit wine was put away.

Today, you should stop drinking, why don't you drink less? Suddenly thinking that today is the day when the other party is on duty, Dinah hesitated. Want to take the wine back.

Don't, I'll just take a sip, just a little, just a little! Seeing this, Xiding quickly snatched the flagon over.

Xiding, is it really okay? Sitting down opposite Xiding, Dinah suddenly said, I don't know why, I suddenly feel a little uneasy, as if something is going to happen!

Hehe, the evil disasters are all over now, and the pirates nearby haven't appeared for a long time, and they probably ran away long ago. Under such circumstances, what can happen? Xiding filled himself with a glass of wine. , drank up. I have to go back in a while. Don't mention these annoying things now. You said that I finally found time to come over to eat with you. Why are you not happy at all? If you do this again, I won't come here again. .”

How dare you! Dana raised her eyes.

Isn't that what it is? Come, eat. Xiding said with a smile.

After eating this meal for half an hour, seeing that it was getting late, Xiding kissed Dana goodbye. Then, he went out and went back the same way.

In order to prevent his subordinates from making small reports about himself, Xiding bought some cooked food when he went back, and hurried back with them.

For fear of being caught by the officer, even though the various celebrations on the street were still in full swing, he didn't bother to watch them.

It can be regarded as coming back. Walking slowly, he finally reached the road leading to the port.

Xiding raised his head and could vaguely see the checkpoint far away. He let out a sigh of relief.

But then, his eyes widened suddenly!

What, what's going on here? I saw, on the sea under the moonlight, a large, countless black shadows were approaching here.

But the few patrol ships floating in the sea did not move at all.

These idiots! They must be gambling again! This thought flashed across Xiding's mind.

As a veteran with a lot of experience, he had already discovered the anomaly, and was about to turn around and inform the naval soldiers who were resting in the nearby camp. Who knew, just after running a few steps away, a battle began.

It was only when the patrol ship approached that they noticed something strange. Immediately, there was a loud noise of killing. Xi Ding watched with dumbstruck eyes. Small boats were smashed to pieces, and larger boats were approached to fight at sea.

When Nick got home, it was past noon. As soon as he entered the door, his son ran over and hugged his legs, insisting on letting him play with him.

Hey, I'll take you to play with my father when he's not busy, okay? Nick still had a lot of things to do in the office and was about to leave after dinner. Seeing his son pestering him, he had no choice but to Can speak perfunctorily.

Father's words don't count all the time. I don't care. I want my father to play with me. Nick's son, who was only three or four years old, said loudly.

Be obedient. Nick showed his father's majesty.

Seeing that his father seemed to be really angry, the little guy had no choice but to sigh, and left like a little adult.

Looking at the depressed back of his son. Nick was also a little depressed.

This kid, really...

He likes you! Nick's wife said with a smile.

Nick and his wife have always had a good relationship. Although his wife had a marriage history, Nick didn't care. Even when the goddess of marriage and love announced that one man and three wives could be allowed, Nick still guarded one wife and did not remarry.

When others asked him, he only joked that marrying a wife would cost too much, and the expenses in the future would also be high, so it's not worth it.

Although this is what he said, it is enough to see Nick's feelings for his wife from this point.

Chinese food is prepared for you. In the restaurant, according to the order, the food was served.

Nick smiled softly at his wife and began to eat.

Would you like some fruit wine? asked the wife.

Nick shook his head: No, I have to sort out the financial statements in the afternoon, and drinking will make my mind unclear.

While eating, Nick's housekeeper ran in from outside.

My lord! My lord!

What happened? Nick asked, putting down his knife and fork, frowning.

Usually at this time, the housekeeper would not disturb him, but now it was obvious that something important had happened.

The general office sent someone to look for you, saying that there is something urgent and needs to report to you! said the housekeeper.

Okay, tell him, I'll be there right away. Nick said, he ate a few bites in a hurry, put on his coat, and walked out.

Come here, bring some snacks, and I'll bring them to the adults later. Seeing that her husband didn't eat much, Nick's wife felt sorry for her husband, and quickly ordered her servants to prepare some snacks.

He got in the carriage and walked towards the office, because it was not far away, he arrived there in a while.

I hurried upstairs, only to find that there was already someone in my room, and it was Farfell.

Fafell, what's the matter? Nick asked hurriedly.

Of course he wouldn't think that Farfell called him here because he was bored.

This is the news that I just heard. Let's take a look. Farfell's face was not very good, and he handed a secret letter to Nick.

Along with the letter, there is also deciphered content.

As soon as Nick received it, he knew that the letter was sent back from some business associations they had sent out. Romon's business associations often had the function of obtaining information on the spot.

The words on it were all code words, after glancing at the letter, he picked up the deciphered content and read it.

After reading the above content, Nick was also a little stunned: Several sea battles, I suspect that elves participated in it, and elves launched a war against humans?

Yes, according to intelligence, it is said that there are a large number of fleets. Although they did not flag, there are many elves on board. Although they did not land, the navies of several countries along the coast have been attacked. (!)
