Act 271 Mission
One and a half months later, Stormwind City, the former Earl's Mansion, appeared in Stormwind City Royal Palace.
"That is to say, this time my mission is to take a boat to the South of Human Kingdom and conduct a regular state visit?"
Looking at Bai Gang with a surprised look on his face, Commander Ren nodded for granted.
"Are you really not prepared for it? You should have thought of such a thing long ago."
"No, I just don't want to take a boat, especially after the existence of Naga is confirmed in the literature of the elves."
Bai Gang didn't like the sea because he would drown whenever the ship sank on the sea, no matter how high his strength was, he would have to drown. There was no room for resistance. This feeling made him feel insecure.
"Don't worry, the 'Storm' has been modified, and the above equipment is enough to deal with general emergencies."
Bai Gang looked at Commander Ren with a weird expression: "If you think you can rest assured if you add a few 76mm high-level dual-purpose cannons on a merchant ship and add a close-up gun, then the 'Storm' is indeed good enough."
Commander Ren shrugged helplessly: "Your mission is a visit after all. Have you seen the leaders of a country entering other countries by skydiving?
So when the Black Rock Kingdom's attitude is unfriendly, the only way to bypass them and deal with the other six kingdoms is to take a boat."
Bai Gang sighed in a resigned manner: "So who is with me? Don't tell me that Shirne is on the list."
"Your ninth team, the professional diplomatic team led by Colonel Liu, and a small team of Phantom Commando are all people you are familiar with, so it should not be a problem to cooperate.
As for Hierne, God, we are not crazy again! How could we let her pass too!?
With Shirne's character, if she had witnessed the exchange of interests in diplomacy with her own eyes, her perception of us would definitely decline, which would affect our actions in the Black Thorns Principality!"
Bai Gang shrugged: "Then let us leave those dark things. It is actually quite good to live in our own world as a glorious and holy banner. Everyone has their own expertise. Only by performing their own duties can the world be better, right?
It would be fine if Hierne didn't go, Gilnas's words..."
"No!" Commander Ren stared at Bai Gang and said, "Are you going to perform a mission or travel? If Gilnas goes, you can still have the energy to work!?"
"You are too underestimating my strength!" Bai Gang said unhappily, "I want to take her there because she is a master of protective magic. I can at least feel safer with her."
"No, Gilnas still has very important research to do. Now we can't let anyone go!" Commander Ren said, "But your safety is indeed very important, so we asked Gilnas to create a few gadgets for you as soon as the laboratory is built."
Bai Gang frowned: "I haven't heard her say this."
"It was Gilnas who refused to say it herself. She wanted to give you a surprise."
"surprise?"
Baigang did get surprises, and there were more than one.
After coming to Gilnas's laboratory, Baigang seized a total of three equipment.
First of all, it is a set of soft armor, which feels like thermal underwear.
But this inconspicuous white soft armor is made of the most advanced synthetic materials on the earth. It is light and extremely tough, enough to withstand the puncture attack of sharp blades.
At the same time, Gilnas used the base's advanced micro-carving technology to enchant a powerful defensive magic on the soft armor, which will automatically activate once the white steel is attacked with a fatal enough attack.
Although enchantments cannot enhance the degree of strength of the armor itself, Gilnas's unique magic defense shield can withstand most attack methods, including physical attacks.
It is not an exaggeration to say that you have a second life with this set of soft armor!
The only trouble is that the shield is consuming too much magic power, and each charge can only support the shield to be turned on.
The second piece of equipment is a box of magic grenades.
Gilnas studied the combat method of Baigang interfering with spell casting, and then made a grenade-type scroll of [Magic Forbidden Zone], which was used the same as a real grenade.
Although the effect is worse than the one released by itself and the duration is limited, it can increase the range of the forbidden demons after all, and sometimes it may have miraculous effects.
As for the third piece, it surprised Baigang the most because it was a multi-function watch! In addition to the functions of normal technology products, Gilnas actually integrated the magic of [Detection of Evil] in it. When using it, you only need to inject magic into it!
It is quite practical for Baigang, who does not know how to detect evil magic.
Gilnas stood beside Bai Gang with a smile: "Bai, do you like my gift?"
Bai Gang looked at Gilnas worriedly: "I really like it, but you won't become Dr. Q from Stormwind City, right?"
"Dr. Q? What is that?"
"Nothing, just a lab madman." Bai Gang changed the subject, "Are you really not going to go to the human kingdom with me?"
Gilnas shook his head without thinking:
"Don't even think about it! I don't want to deal with those human lords apart from you. I'm no different from other elves in this regard!
It’s better to do more magic experiments when you have that time. It’s rare to have such excellent experimental conditions. How can you not make good use of it?
You said it was Maomao?"
【Yes, you are right, my hostess.】
"Maomao!?" Bai Gang said in surprise, "Don't you feel uncomfortable giving artificial intelligence such a name?"
Gilnas said for granted: "Of course not! Don't you find it very interesting?"
"Okay, just like you..."
After getting the equipment, the team for the visit had been formed. When they set out, Baigang finally saw his fleet - the armed merchant ship "Storm" with a displacement of 4,260 tons and its sister ship "Black Thorn".
Both ships have installed two 76mm high-level dual-purpose gun turrets, two 730 close-defense guns and some anti-aircraft machine guns on the hull of the merchant ship.
It is okay to use self-defense, but you can’t expect too much combat effectiveness.
The most common aluminum ingots carried in the cargo warehouses of the two ships were aluminum, but not all commonly used aluminum ingots. Half of them were made into coins, with different sizes and different denominations. The larger ones were silver dollars from the Republic of China, and the rest were about the same size as one yuan, five cents, and one cent coins.
The base is planning to interfere in the coin minting industry. It is much more convenient to use aluminum as currency than to settle it with magic crystals or gold and silver.
The remaining space on the ship was placed with luxurious armor enchanted with micro-carvings and earthly delicacies scheduled for banquets.
