Hotel on the mountain

The sea breeze in September is very cool.

There is a seaside cliff near the landing beach of the New World. From here, you can see the magnificent sea and hear the sound of pearly white waves hitting the rocks.

But tonight, on this cliff, there was a light female voice.

The female voice is like a folk song from a coastal area of ​​the Hebrew Empire. It tells the story of a young man who left his hometown and boarded a carriage in the early morning to travel five hundred miles to work in a foreign land.

As the song continued, the young man in the song changed from a dreamer to a lonely individual who wanted to go home but was unwilling to go home.

The singing has ended, but the lingering sound is still lingering. The surrounding crowd burst into tears because the singer sang so well, and the collective fell into silence.

When one person's applause suddenly rang out, the applause that followed was continuous and shocked this small world.

"Betty! One more!" someone shouted.

"Yeah, Betty, sing it again!"

The girl called Betty sat on a wooden stool, holding a homemade acoustic guitar in her hand, using this inferior instrument to match her heavenly tone.

She has brown wavy hair, a square face dotted with thin eyebrows, big eyes, a high nose, and red lips. She is a woman who even if she is wearing patchwork clothes, you can tell there is a hint of charm in her blinking smile.

"Okay, okay." Betty moved her hips a few times, adjusted her sitting posture on the chair, and smiled happily, "Then let us sing the praises of the great Lord Jetro, thank him for letting us gather here, and avoid Suffer the hardships of prison and give us a decent job and life.”

As the light humming sounded, the half-circle of the audience fell silent again. Betty's voice gradually became louder and did not contain a word of lyrics. However, from this change in tone and volume, everyone seemed to see a volume about war. The epic unfolds in front of you - an unknown soldier embarks on a journey, makes friends, and goes to the battlefield together. The war is intense, and his partners sacrifice one by one - Betty's voice enters a passionate state - the unknown soldier resists a hundred in blood and tears!

The audience also fell into excitement and couldn't help but clenched their fists. The singing inspired their dreams and passion.

Sudden!

Someone shouted: "Oh! Betty, look! Your high notes make the sea light up!"

Being interrupted like this, everyone's aroused emotions were extinguished within three seconds. They all stood up and stretched their necks to look towards the sea.

I saw the sea surface hiding the half-curved moon, and dots of blue-white light emerged from the deep sea. This small cluster of light spread from the origin like a virus, faster and faster! In the blink of an eye, most of the sea level was eroded by this blue-white light.

The water surface is lingering on the blue-white light, like a fairyland under the moon.

Betty's eyes were also shocked by this strange phenomenon, and she murmured: "The sea is burning?"

…

The Alpine Hotel's alarm sounded at eleven o'clock in the night.

Jetro woke up from the bed, reached for his white shirt and put it on himself. He wore black pants and white clothes and opened the door and entered the corridor. Deputy Controller Gordon was already waiting outside the door. They were walking in a hurry, but their steps were not in a hurry. When they passed by the Dawn Suite No. 1, Dao'er's figure flashed out from behind the door. She closed the door gently without waking up Xibinai who was sleeping.

The Sith who were in the hall came up to them and said a few words to Jetro. The latter nodded, and a group of guards escorted several people out of the gate of the Alpine Castle.

At night, the sound of running blue velociraptors spread on the avenue, and they ran all the way to the mouth of Xingdeng River. On the other side, the trap prepared for Little Hailong was already brightly lit, and a large number of workers were urgently summoned to conduct a final round of inspections and respond to emergencies.

The architect Russell was holding a pipe in his mouth and his eyes were red, and he was still meticulously patrolling around the trap building. Blacksmith Simba directed the guards to open the awnings of one vehicle after another, revealing dozens of large ballistae loaded on the vehicles.

The workers gathered around and placed the ballistae in an orderly manner at designated locations in the trap building. The guards were carrying boxes after boxes of [Weak Dragon Crossbow Arrows]. These weapons filled with Weak Dragon Potion were already in place on each ballista, and everyone was ready.

The trap building is egg-shaped, built on the shoal and extending into the river. The interior is divided into four floors. The first floor is completely hollow and is used to trap small sea dragons. There are circular planks on the upper three floors, which the hunting team adheres to. Location.

When the young sea dragon enters the urn, the hunting team must immediately close the front and rear sluices, even if the bait boat is still inside. After that, all the weak dragon crossbow arrows must be fired from a high place. If necessary, one needs to jump on the small sea dragon to strike.

"If there are no mistakes in this link, using the analogy of the endurance of the Black Eclipse Dragon, which is also in its cub stage, the little sea dragon will not be able to hold on for long." Dao'er separated from Yetro at the crossroads, before the latter was going to the estuary. When he asked, "Yi Zi, I hope you have considered everything."

Sith nodded in agreement with these words.

Jetro's expression was startled. He saw worry on the faces of Dao'er and Sisi, so he smiled and responded: "Don't worry."

With a flick of Lan Sulong's head, he ran towards his own path.

Mengzhi and Golandon followed him. As the deputy steward of the Raya family, Golandon said: "Master, as subordinates, we all support your decision. But as the steward, I think you should change someone now." It’s not too late to be a crew member.”

"Glandon." Yetro said in the fast wind, "I can't guarantee that the small sea dragon can be led into the trap with the crossbows on the ship. After all, no one has ever defeated this kind of creature before, so any feasible method Use every method.”

"Master, what do you mean -" Gordon looked over, his green eyes seeming to penetrate people's hearts, "You can lead the little sea dragon into the trap by yourself?"

"A guess. Granton, I am also a guess." Jetro's voice was steady and powerful, "I think some ancient dragons may want to eat me."

Speaking of this, Yetro remembered the battle in which the Black Eclipse Dragon desperately chased him, and Xibinai's translation of the Black Eclipse Dragon's words. He had an intuition in his heart - just like he was a strange existence in this world, the monsters in this world would be very interested in him.

"Master, you are very courageous." After saying this, Golandon stopped talking.

Jetro smiled, and Mengzhi looked at Jetro's face without saying anything.

At night, several fish lanterns were lit on the Never Return. The captain, Lao Mai, checked the condition of the psychic engine in the cabin one last time and said that everything was stable.

Jetro walked up to the driver's seat on the second floor, put his hands on the special ballista, and stared at the sea that was already like a deep purgatory.

As time passed, suddenly, they heard a very lovely cry from the shining place of the sea. Jetro felt that it was a bit like the cry of a whale, the sound was ethereal and carried thousands of miles.

Then, this lovely chirping sound started one after another, as if celebrating the birth of new life and thanking God for the abundant food.

The sea was stirred.

A huge ray of light separated from the sea of ​​light and drifted away.

A relatively small ray of light was revealed, and the other rays of light in the sea of ​​​​light gradually dimmed, and the light in the center became brighter and brighter.

This light swam around in place for a few times, as if it had discovered something new and interesting, and began to rush towards the coastline.

Along with the undercurrent of sea water under the sea surface, what was reflected in Yetro's brain were the conscious words of the emperor's walking lantern——

"Yetro! It's coming!"
