Chapter 675-Avic Fort

Translator: ryangohsf

Editor: Nora

Dragon Head, war room.

Zheng He reported the results, "During this battle, we obtained 12 thousand Viking pirates, 20 thousand gold, and many equipment."

Ouyang Shuo nodded expressionlessly, "Send a navy unit to escort them back to Jidian City and put them into the Mediterranean Squadron. As for the gold, gift it to the soldiers as a reward for being a part of the voyage."

Zheng He laughed, cupping his fists, "I thank the Lord for his gifts on behalf of the soldiers."

The Viking Pirates were all top-quality naval soldiers in terms of body qualities and naval battle skills. Compared to the Gulf of Aden pirates and the Spanish navy, they were a little stronger.

Their only weakness would be their lax discipline.

However, with Alvaro in charge, there should not be too much of a problem. That experienced general was known for not giving others face, and he was described as a cold person.

No matter how disruptive and ill-disciplined they were, Alvaro would train them up nicely.

12 thousand Viking prisoners were enough to fully fill up the 3rd squadron. In that aspect, destroying the Viking Pirates was a good way to increase their troops.

Relying on the snail-like pace of Jidian City to expand population of the squadrons was not practical. The new people were mainly to increase the basic population of Jidian City.

It seemed like he needed to send a letter to Alvaro to ask him to lead the Mediterranean squadron through the Gibraltar Straits into the Pacific to attack some Viking Pirates when the time was right.

With that, he would be able to train troops and expand the military.

"As for the equipment, take half with the prisoners and send it to Jidian City. As for the other half, give it to the English Squadron. They put in so much effort, so we should not make it too ugly for them." Ouyang Shuo instructed.

"Understood!" Zheng He was a polite person.

At this moment, the guard outside said, "Lord, Infanta Annie visits."

"Invite her in." Ouyang Shuo stood up to welcome the guests.

When he learned that the squadron they had saved was actually the Iron ladies Army under Annie, Ouyang Shuo was surprised.

In the last life, this cold-faced angel was famous across the world. On the forums, there were rumors that she had the beauty of an angel but a heart as cold as a devil's.

If history had not changed, Annie would rise up after her first failure; she would totally become the nightmare of the Viking Pirates.

In their words, she was a female devil that killed without blinking.

Annie became the humiliation of the Viking Pirates.

By the 5th year of Gaia, no less than 200 thousand Viking pirates were killed by her; this was more than half of their total number.

With that, her fame spread across the globe.

Numerous Lords and guild leaders chased after her, but nobody succeeded.

Someone even spread the rumor that she was a lesbian and that Caroline was her lover, which was why she rejected everyone.

In the last life, people treated it as side news and did not pay much attention to it.

When she walked into the room, the room lit up. Amongst all the beauties Ouyang Shuo knew, probably only Feng Qiuhuang could compare to her.

Beside her stood a red-haired beauty with a tantalizing body. Needless to say, it was Caroline.

Thinking back to the rumors in the last life, Ouyang Shuo could not help but glance at the two. This was the first time he had seen them. In terms of looks, the forums had not exaggerated in the slightest.

They were truly more beautiful than the pictures online.

Only her cold expression caused men to not dare to have any crooked thoughts. It was like even just thinking about it would be blasphemy to this goddess.

However, Annie misinterpreted the meaning behind his gaze and thought that he was like other men; she thought he was shallow and only went for looks, so a look of disdain flashed across her eyes.

"Infanta Annie, I've heard about you, please sit!"

Ouyang Shuo was truly sharp; he had noticed the despise in her eyes. However, in his heart, he did not feel bothered about it much and sat at the main seat. With his current position and mental strength, why would he bother to explain anything?

When Annie heard his words, she sat down coldly, "Speak, what would you like in return?"

Cough!

Even though Ouyang Shuo was calm, these words managed to catch him off guard. What kind of attitude was this? This was the first time he met someone who was saved and still so stubborn.

"Forget it!" Ouyang Shuo waved his hand to prevent Zheng He from speaking, smiling, "Since that's the case, I won't beat around the bush. As long as Infanta Annie leads me to see your brother, that will be enough. How about that?"

"Just that simple?"

Annie unknowingly frowned; she had seen so many so-called gentlemen who loved to take a step back, only to take a step forward later to get close to her and gain a good impression. Ouyang Shuo's action had deepened her misunderstanding.

"Yes, it's just that simple." Ouyang Shuo nodded.

"Okay, I'll promise you."

Annie bore the annoyance in her heart. Although she was cold and arrogant, she knew how to differentiate between hate and gratitude.

I really want to see what tricks you, the so-called 1st in the world, are trying to play, Annie thought to herself, Do not blame me for being upright you disgusting fellow!

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became extremely cold.

Ouyang Shuo had reached his goal, and he was not interested in talking to this ice-cold beauty. At his level, how would he be tempted by a person's looks? Furthermore, this was such a cold person.

In comparison, Ouyang Shuo felt that Caroline, who had a fiery body, was better to look at. Caroline, who stood behind Annie, had a rather awkward expression when she heard her missus's words, and she gave an apologetic smile.

Annie sat quietly, waiting for Ouyang Shuo's following 'act'. She had seen a lot of these tricks. They had all tried to use a similar excuse to invite her for a meal to get close to her.

Next, they would give her gifts to show their power and wealth.

Just thinking about it, Annie felt disgusted.

However, contrary to her expectations, Ouyang Shuo actually stood up and sent her away, "Well, I hope Miss Annie will not forget your promise. I still have matters to attend to, so I will not waste your precious time."

When Annie heard his words, she froze.

This is not right! Annie could not help but roll her eyes, consoling herself, Scoff, is he trying to 'Loosen the reigns so as to grasp them better latter?' Just wait and see!

"Let's leave!"

Annie got up and coldly said goodbye.

"How can she act like that? If we knew beforehand, we would not have saved her." When Annie left, Zheng He could not help but express his dissatisfaction. Evidently, her actions were contrary to the eastern education Zheng He was used to.

"Forget it, do not care about her!" Ouyang Shuo waved his hand, "Send some medical officers to heal their injured. Pack up all the stuff; let's leave for England as soon as possible."

"Understood!"

"The navy unit that was taking care of the prisoners, let them set off now!" Ouyang Shuo said, "Return to Jidian City and immediately rush back to England to meet the squadron."

"Yes!"

Zheng He made the arrangements while Ouyang Shuo walked toward the deck. He had not had time to check on their spoils of war, especially the two dragons that they had killed.

"Lord!"

On the deck, the dissection work of the corpses was nearly completed.

When the smiths and artisans saw Ouyang Shuo, they all bowed.

In Earth Online, dragons were just spirit beasts that could fly, they were not as mystical and as magical as described in western folklore. As long as one found the right spot, it was easy to rip off their skin.

Amongst leather, dragon leather could be considered top grade. Amongst which, the arm and the spine portion were the best, as these parts had strong fibrous tissues and stensile strength.

Perfect Dragon Skin: Quality 28, top grade leather from a western giant dragon, can be used to craft top grade defensive equipment.

Ouyang Shuo kept the spine and waist portion of the huge dragon. It was not that he wanted to use it to make something in particular. Rather, he wanted to give it to Qing'er as a present.

She would definitely love such top-grade leather.

Apart from the leather, another valuable part would be the dragon crystal in its head. It was similar to the inner pellets in desolate beasts, which could help in cultivation.

Both of the killed dragons were fire element dragons, and the dragon crystals were of the fire element, a mismatch with Ouyang Shuo's cultivation method and talent. If he forcefully used it, it would not be that effective.

However, to the western hidden occupation, Magician, they were top grade items.

Ouyang Shuo kept the two dragon crystals into his storage bag, turning around and leaving. As for using the dragon blood to train one's body, such a method did not exist in Earth Online. At most, the dragon meat contained a huge amount of energy.

The two giant dragons gave them many tonnes of meat, which would be enough for the voyage squadron to use for a long time.

8th month, 15th day, the voyage squadron set off once more, along with them Annie's remaining troops.

The road was smooth, and they did not bump into any other Viking Pirates.

The most active region of the Vienna Pirates was not the Celtic Sea but the North Sea, Norwegian Sea, and the Greenland Sea; their main base was located in that area.

Annie had bumped into the biggest bunch of Viking Pirates in the Celtic Sea.

8th month, 18th day, the squadron smoothly arrived at the Plymouth Port in England.

In reality, Plymouth was a city with a vast naval seafaring history, and it was once the shipyard of the English Royal Navy. It was also an important port of the English from the 16th to the 19th century.

At around one thousand B.C., there was a small commercial port here.

The Plymouth Port in the game was a port that belonged solely to Avic Fort.

When he received the news, the Lord of Avic Fort, William, waited at the port to welcome Ouyang Shuo and his men.

Similar to Ouyang Shuo, William was rather controlling of his sister. However, because Annie was around his age, it was really difficult for him, and she gave him a huge headache.

Knowing that Annie was attacked, and her troops were nearly crushed, he was so furious that he nearly summoned the entire navy to hunt the Vikings. He only stopped when his subordinates managed to persuade him.

William felt really grateful toward Ouyang Shuo.
