Anna, who had lost her left arm, and King Gravel returned to Gorgon. There was not much to celebrate after this expedition.
Lord Tyron also led his men back to Blackstone Castle, but he still could not find his son Joe.
The armistice agreement between the Empire and the Kingdom of Northland had officially come into effect. At least for a long time, there would not be any more wars.
With the end of this war, both sides did not want to come into contact with each other again. Both sides had to focus on their own development.
Lord Horf brought his eldest son Patrick, who had died gloriously in battle, and his second son Ackermann, who had become a berserker, back to Gorgon with the main forces of the Northland.
There were too many unspeakable difficulties in this war, and too many unwillingness to accept defeat.
However, the sun still rose as usual, and the people had new things to do.
"My Lord, is it really worth it for us to go through so much trouble?" Standing on the tattered deck, a sailor squinted his eyes under the scorching sun as he stood beside a half-naked man and complained helplessly.
"It doesn't matter if it's worth it or not. This is our mission, so we must complete this mission." The half-naked man grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
The ship under their feet was originally a sailing warship made by the German Empire. It was equipped with two large ballistas, and its speed was quite good. After it was built, it served as a coastal unit of the German Empire's navy, responsible for patrol and security.
Later, because of the war, the two ballistas on it were damaged, and the ship lost its ability to fight. In addition, because of the aging of the hull, its speed had decreased a lot, so it was sent out as a fishing boat to catch some sea creatures. It became an armed fishing boat.
What was even more sad was that Byron Bay had developed into a large port. Now, more advanced fishing boats could be produced here, and there were trade products such as sea salt, so these few broken ships became idle.
Because there was no need to prepare for any naval battle in a short period of time, there were 20 outdated but still powerful magic crystal cannons on the turrets outside the port as cover. Therefore, the Northland Navy's need for warships became very low. Therefore, the Northland Navy was faced with a reality that made them not know whether to laugh or cry: they had become the most useless people.
In the current Byron Bay, the new fishing boats were faster than the broken warships of the Navy. During the most painful days, the Marines docked in the port had to watch dozens of new fishing boats sail out of the port every day. The feeling was really sour.
In the end, with the crazy idea of recycling waste, Princess Isabella Of Denmark personally led three old naval warships out to sea after coaxing and pestering, heading south to search for the Elven Kingdom.
It took them two months, and they even lost a warship along the way. Finally, they landed at the southern port of Ultramara.
Although a ship sank along the way, they still managed to reach the Elf Kingdom.
After all, they had to avoid the interception of the German Empire's navy along the way, and they had to overcome the bad weather and unfavorable sea conditions. It was already a very great thing that they could return to Byron Bay alive.
"Look! The Northland flag on the starboard side! " A sailor leaned on the broken railing of the ship, pointing at the distant sea and shouting loudly. His words attracted the attention of many sailors. Everyone leaned on the railing and looked in the direction he was pointing.
There, on a huge ship pulling a fishing net, the black flag of the Golden Eagle King was fluttering in the sea breeze. It was probably a new ship with a new design, because compared to the old fishing boats, it was obviously bigger.
"Raise the signal flag and greet our compatriots!" Isabella held the wheel with one hand, her face filled with a smile of relief. Today, they finally saw their compatriots after going through so many hardships and dangers along the way.
A red flag and a blue flag were raised together. Because they had drifted on the sea for too long, the two triangular flags were a little dirty and a little tattered. However, they were still raised to the top of the flagpole, fluttering in the wind.
Soon, the opposite ship also raised two flags. The blue flag was on top, and the yellow flag was below. Just like the red and blue flag, which represented friendliness, the blue and yellow flag represented welcome.
The officers and men of the navy let out an ecstatic cheer. Behind them, there were also faint cheers coming from another old battleship. After a morning, the two old warships finally saw the Kingdom of Northland's Byron Bay Fort. They saw the cannons covered by canvas.
"Finally, we're home!" After turning the wheel and adjusting their course, Isabella let out a long breath and hummed a song.
Her voice drifted over the sea, and the sailors beside her hummed along. They missed their home so much, and missed this Byron Bay that they hadn't seen for more than two months.
All the soldiers followed the tune and sang a familiar melody. Amidst the familiar melody, they leaned against the new straight pier in the harbor.
"Princess Isabella Of Denmark! Welcome back! Did the journey go smoothly? " The officer, who had been waiting at the dock, saw Isabella jump down from the deck and saluted her.
"We lost dozens of sailors and soldiers, and a ship sank. Other than that, it was quite smooth." Isabella returned the salute and said, "We found a route and established a friendship with the Elven Kingdom."
"Elves? That's something that everyone is paying attention to. " When he heard the word 'elves', the officer couldn't care less about his comrades who had sacrificed themselves on the way. He immediately said, "You should come and see this. It was built before you left, but it wasn't as big as it is now."
"New warships?" Hearing this, Isabella's eyes lit up. She pushed the officer in front of her aside and walked quickly to the pier. Then, her gaze gradually bypassed a huge cargo ship and saw three beautiful new warships behind it.
The appearance of these three new ships is much larger than the old battleships of the Navy. What's more exciting is that each of these ships has a huge sail and many masts. At a glance, one can tell that their speed is extremely fast.
"They can travel at a super fast speed of 30 kilometers per hour when the wind is blowing." The officer behind Lawns introduced the new warships with a look of pride on his face. "The new hull design, two at the front and two at the back, eight on each side of the ship, a total of 20 Magic Crystal Cannons with sufficient ammunition. These three warships can sink a fleet!"
