At dawn, people who had been noisy all day were finally tired, and began to get into bed and quickly catch up on a short sleep to welcome the arrival of the morning. Vengeance Harbor finally became quiet for a short time.
At this time, the tall figure of the blood elf prince Zeng Chi stood in the Nangang District. Next to him were Huang Hongman, Lanni, and several blood elf generals from the Revenge Army.
They were all smiling and looking at the sea in the distance.
On the sea, a magnificent sailing ship with double flags of a golden crescent moon and a blood rose was slowly approaching.
…
"Father, you are here. Hello Uncle Lin Ju, hello all the uncles and aunties of the congressmen."
After the sailboat docked, Zeng Chi and others quickly approached it. Before they even got close, Zeng Chi started shouting.
Huang Hongman pulled Zeng Chi and glared at him, but he shyly pulled him along and solemnly saluted everyone who got off the sailboat.
The blood elves all smiled and returned the greetings to their prince and princess.
A middle-aged blood elf uncle who looked very handsome came out of the crowd, but he glared at Zeng Chi. After he bowed properly, he glanced approvingly at Huang Hongman beside him and nodded slightly.
…
"Blazing Flame, your Demon Eagle urgent letter said, where is their magical fleet? Why didn't I see it?"
He glanced at the empty port area doubtfully and asked in a deep voice.
"They had already left the port at dawn and were preparing for what they were talking about at sea...the naval parade. You will see it, father. When you actually see it with your own eyes, you will know that what I said is not an exaggeration.
."
Zeng Chi replied with a smile.
"Humph, you are about to get married, and you are not stable at all. If I find that what you said is not true, it will be more difficult for you."
The Blood Elf King snorted lightly, but led everyone towards the port area.
…
"Dear His Majesty the Blood Elf King, you are still so young."
Not far away, a huge flat open space was already crowded with people, but a passage as wide as a street was left, traversing the entire open space. In front of the open space, on a platform that had been set up, the great elder was already leading a group of people.
People came forward with smiles on their faces.
"Haha, I am a gift from God, but I am just a human body. When I reach my age, I will not just die. On the contrary, my respected elder, you are very energetic, and you seem to be getting younger as you live."
The blood elf king also held the great elder's extended hands with a smile on his face.
"I'm just in high spirits during happy events."
The Great Elder smiled. After shaking hands with the Blood Elf King, he gave up half of his body, revealing a young man behind him who was also smiling, but also had a slightly curious look in his eyes.
…
"Come, let me give you a solemn introduction."
"Your Majesty, this is His Highness Xie Ning, the Crown Prince of Yong, the Third Empire of Mountain and Sea China, the descendants of our White Star China, and the founding first-class Yongwu Marquis. His Highness Ning is also the commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army of the Empire from my mother country."
"His Royal Highness. This is our close blood-sworn ally of the descendants of White Star China, the King of the Blood Elves, His Majesty Bertistaini Morrowind."
"Hello, Your Majesty. I have admired the reputation of the King of Blood Elves for a long time. I feel relieved to see him today, and I can use it as something to show off when I go back. I hope you can lead the blood elves to avenge themselves and move towards glory."
Xie Ning smiled and stretched out his hand.
"Hello, Your Royal Highness. I am also aware of your name. An outstanding genius, the descendant of the Star Shadow Demon in the barbarian legend, and the future double legendary star of mankind. My friend, may the sun and the moon be with you.
."
The blood elf king looked at the human young man in front of him with slight surprise, and responded with a smile.
…
After the two shook hands, the great elder began to introduce everyone behind them one by one with a smile on his face.
After a while of polite greetings, the Blood Elf King looked at Xie Ning again and said with a smile: "So, His Royal Highness, are we going to start the... military parade you mentioned? You know, our MPs can't wait to see it.
Look at that legendary and mighty battleship."
"Well, it's almost time. Your Majesty, and all distinguished blood elf friends, please take a seat quickly, please."
Xie Ning looked at the watch on his wrist and smiled, asking the blood elves to sit down.
…
The Blood Elf King watched curiously from his seat as the young man walked to the stage, but he whispered a few words to a middle-aged human general wearing a strange but beautiful snow-white general's uniform.
Then, the general picked up a microphone in his hand.
"Now, please be quiet."
A faint glow of magic energy circulated on the microphone, and the general's thunderous voice suddenly spread throughout the entire port area. The noisy people in the square instantly fell silent and looked curiously at the rostrum opposite.
"I declare that the Imperial Eighth Route Army Dingbei Aircraft Carrier Formation's Revenge Harbor military parade has officially begun."
The human general declared impassionedly.
…
"First item, the pacesetters are in place——"
He then shouted in a longer voice.
The sound of uniform footsteps suddenly came, and a small group of human soldiers were seen trotting over neatly from the end of the square, but one person stopped at intervals. In the end, they were spread across the entire square.
People on both sides of the avenue coming out stood respectfully.
What is this for? It seems like some very solemn ceremony is being held?
The blood elf king was already watching with great interest.
…
"The second item, the army formation begins——"
The human general shouted again.
The majestic symphonic music suddenly came out from several magic sound-enhancing devices spread across the square, causing a commotion among the crowd in the audience and the blood elves on the stage.
"God, what kind of music is this?" A blood elf councilor listened carefully. After more than ten seconds, his eyes became more and more shocked, but he said in a low voice.
"It seems like countless musical instruments are playing at the same time. In short, it seems very majestic?" Another congressman also said in a low voice.
"This is the march of the Eighth Route Army of the Empire - well, although His Highness Ning said it was done by Earth Lord, everyone now knows that Earth Lord is just an excuse for His Highness Ning not to attract attention."
"So in fact, it was composed by our Highness Ning himself when the Eighth Route Army was first established. Some of the instruments played were also made by His Highness Ning himself. After His Highness guided the band to play, he recorded it through a magic costume
, and played in a loop through the magic playback device."
The Great Elder smiled and proudly explained to the blood elves.
…
"Humans' magic costumes are always so wonderful. I originally thought that White Star humans were weird enough. But I didn't expect that their home planet is even more unparalleled."
"No, I prefer this music. It's majestic, exciting, and has a clear rhythm. It's full of unity and upward power. It makes my blood boil when I listen to it. It's really great."
"Those musical instruments are also amazing. I didn't expect that an ensemble of musical instruments with various timbres would produce such a wonderful effect. Maybe we should try it in the future."
"I'm more curious about their Highness Ning. He must be a young man full of amazing talent for the art of music. Otherwise, it's hard for me to imagine that he can make such a beautiful piece of music, and even specially researched it for it.
Many instruments and ensemble methods.”
The blood elves discussed with great interest.
…
Then, they heard low exclamations from the crowd. Looking up, they saw a neat square formation slowly walking from the end of the square to the sound of exciting music.
.
They were dressed in neat light gray military uniforms with spots. They walked in uniform steps, and their left hands were holding a magic crystal rifle with a bayonet attached, leaning on their shoulders and pointing straight at the sky.
"What is coming to us now is the Navy Demon Squadron of the Dingbei Aircraft Carrier Formation of the Imperial Eighth Route Army. As we all know, the power of the Demon Battle determines the foundation of an army's combat effectiveness. And our Navy Demon Squadron is responsible for defending
Ships, defensive gang raids and other combat missions. They are the backbone and pillar of our Dingbei formation’s combat power..."
The human general held the microphone and introduced it nonstop, and the Chinese people cheered.
"It seems...there's nothing special except that it looks more formal and solemn. Relatively speaking, I appreciate their Highness Ning's music more."
A blood elf councilor said in a low voice.
…
The square team was still moving forward slowly amidst cheers and discussions. When they arrived in front of the rostrum, a roar that seemed to come from the square team suddenly sounded among the silent marching team, and came in
Within everyone’s eardrums.
"Look to the right -"
"One! Two!" A low and consistent response suddenly sounded in the formation.
Suddenly, the formation made a new move. The soldiers uniformly lowered their rifles to their shoulders, pointed their bayonets at the sky, turned their heads and looked sideways at the rostrum, and Ruyi's right hand neatly knocked to his left chest. Only a few gurgling sounds were heard.
The soft clang of the rifle was accompanied by a dull collision between the fist and the chest. The entire series of dazzling actions were completed by hundreds of people in a second or two, but they were as neat as one person!
At the same time, in a series of smooth movements, their walking pace suddenly changed. The soldiers kicked their legs forward in the same movement, and then stepped down heavily when they were at the same height from the ground. Then, the rhythm of the march continued.
In unison, the sound of hundreds of people as one person suddenly sounded in the marching queue of the soldiers!
…
People's expressions suddenly changed! Xie Ning, Commander Zheng and Chief of Staff Sun on the stage were solemnly returning the gift, but the blood elves were already dumbfounded.
Amidst the majestic and exciting march music, in the team that marched silently again, there were solemn faces looking sideways at the rostrum, and the rows were neatly aligned, with sharp spears piercing the forest, accompanied by the regular goose steps that rose and fell at the same height.
The sound gradually began to quietly echo in everyone's hearts, shaking their hearts.
"I seem to see... the surging power of the human army... and the wonderful beauty of... the art of iron and blood."
Amid the roaring cheers of the Chinese people, the blood elf councilor who was initially disapproving said with difficulty.
"These rituals were also pioneered by His Highness and are unique to the Eighth Route Army of the Empire."
The great elder said proudly.
The Blood Elf King was horrified and moved. (To be continued...)
