Chapter 96 I Really Came to Find the Cat
Chapter 96 I Really Came to Find the Cat
The soldiers who were rapidly approaching were instantly blasted away by an invisible force.
"what..."
After a sandstorm, only screams remained.
"Don't be afraid, he won't be able to use this ability for long, let's all attack together!!"
Crotova, having retired from the front lines, naturally knew the capabilities of the Tugui Kingdom and immediately felt reassured. However, Liu Yufei, seeing how brave this guy was, felt it would be a shame not to give him a chance!
Crotova then suddenly felt his body slip out of his control and float toward Liu Yufei, terrifying him to the point of panic, but there was nothing he could do.
As Crotova got closer to Liu Yufei, he realized that he had spoken a little too loudly.
"and many more..."
Just then, Kushana and Yuba finally arrived. Seeing Crotova covered in cold sweat and looking disheveled, Kushana was really angry!
Seeing that the person in question had come out, Liu Yufei stopped making things difficult for Crotova and put him down.
"Who are you, Your Excellency?"
It seems that Kushana still has the advantage on the field right now. Even if she is at a disadvantage, given her pride, she won't admit defeat.
"I come from a place called Laputa?"
"Laputa, the city in the sky?"
For the past two years, the Kingdom of Rumekia has also been searching for Laputa. Kushana even thought that the people were spreading rumors. Now that she has seen Liu Yufei, she knows that the Sky City really exists.
"What brings you here, sir?"
"Hmm! Just looking for something!!"
Kushana sneered inwardly. Sure enough, even a place like Laputa, which calls itself a heavenly kingdom, couldn't resist the temptation of the giants?
"It's a biological weapon!"
Now that things are out in the open, Kushana has no need to hide anything. Liu Yufei was also taken aback. How could anyone know that? There's an undercover agent in Laputa? Bah! Who am I the only one infiltrating?
"Hehe, I guess so! It's just that it hasn't awakened yet!"
Indeed, Dido is not an ordinary fox-squirrel, but a Devil Fruit that ate Liu Yufei's Divine Tree. However, the power of the Dog-Dog Fruit is not yet obvious, and he still cannot communicate effectively with people.
But such a dangerous thing is indeed a biological weapon in this era. So Liu Yufei immediately admitted it, but looking at Kushana's expression, Liu Yufei immediately knew that this matter was completely messed up!
One is talking about the Yellow Crane Tower, and the other is talking about the "jibatou" (a type of traditional Chinese headdress).
Seeing Kushana's serious demeanor, Liu Yufei knew that explaining anything now was useless! Of course, Yuba was even more confused. What exactly did Nausicaä take that caused the two sides to fight over it?
At that moment, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared in the sky. Yes, it suddenly appeared; it didn't fly over, but appeared in the sky in an instant, blocking out the sun.
It also obscured the entire Valley of the Wind, causing the residents of the Valley of the Wind and the soldiers of Dorumekia to look up at the sky.
"Drink it...it's so big..."
Everyone gasped in astonishment, for what they saw was an island floating in the air, larger than the entire Valley of the Wind.
Nausicaä, who was standing guard in front of Gil, suddenly realized that it had gotten dark. Looking out the window, she saw a huge, dark, flying object hovering in the sky above the Valley of the Wind.
"Dido, where are you going?!"
When Dido, perched on Nausicaä's shoulder, saw Laputa in the air, he immediately fled into the room.
"Dido, what are you doing?"
Dido, however, turned around unexpectedly and growled at Nausicaä in a somewhat irritable manner. Nausicaä was not afraid at all, thinking that the strange phenomenon in the sky had frightened the little guy.
"Nausicaä, what happened?"
"Father, outside, there's a piece of land floating in the air!"
"Laputa, haha! Absolutely shocking!!"
Seeing Nausicaä's performance, she was far better than he had been back then! Although Gil was ill, he wasn't confused and immediately said:
Did you take something from someone?
When her father asked her, Nausicaä knew he was after the girl who had given her something, which was currently in her pocket. Nausicaä couldn't help but squeeze it tightly.
"What belongs to others is never truly yours, Nausicaä. Doing so will bring disaster to the Valley of the Wind!!"
Gil knew that Nausicaä wasn't the type to covet other people's treasures, so he was reassured about that. But what he feared was that his daughter had made a promise to someone else, with the Valley of the Wind on one side and a promise on the other.
This put Nausicaä in a difficult position, but in the end she realized that some things were beyond her control, so she took the secret stone, hugged Dido, and walked out.
Dido was struggling terribly!
"Dido, you better behave, or I'm not going to talk to you anymore!!"
Nausicaä's eyes were a little teary, but she ultimately persevered.
Kushana, on the other hand, could no longer contain herself, and the soldiers gradually surrounded her. It seemed that obtaining the secret stone today would be a fierce battle!
"Your Excellency, what do you mean by this? Are you declaring war on the Kingdom of Dorumechia?"
Liu Yufei looked at Kushana with a hint of amusement and said softly:
"War? You...are not worthy!!"
"you..."
It wasn't that Liu Yufei looked down on them; he genuinely looked down on them! With current ground technology, at most they were at the level of World War I, where every airship that was lost was one less in existence.
So you can see that, despite the high-tech nature of the airship, the people getting off are all medieval knights. The incongruity is beyond words!
Even with her good temper, Kushana couldn't stand Liu Yufei's contemptuous tone and immediately moved. Fortunately, Yuba stepped between the two in time.
"Your Highness, do you intend to wage war against your own allies? Mr. Liu, you don't want to destroy this paradise either!"
Although Yuba was under a lot of pressure at the moment, he knew how to address the problem effectively. Just as Crotova was about to say something, Yuba's longsword was already pressed against his throat.
This made Crotova swallow hard, thinking to himself, "Why am I getting involved? I've already faced three dangers in one day."
Meanwhile, on Laputa Island, guardian robots flew down like eggs, including not only these robots but also small robots that Liu Yufei himself had researched.
Before long, the sky was filled with countless mechanical creatures, their bodies flashing with electronic red light, clearly far superior to their old spaceships.
The Dorumechia soldiers, who had been somewhat agitated, suddenly felt how wonderful the world was, and their mood calmed down.
"Mr. Liu, please stop..."
Yuba said urgently, but he hadn't lost his composure, so he didn't use his longsword to force him. Liu Yufei also didn't intend to really destroy the Valley of the Wind, and immediately smiled and said:
"Don't worry, they're just gardening and repair robots. The main thing now is to get rid of any unfriendly people!"
Who would believe that?! They don't consider these sky-covering robots to be part of the atmosphere group, and the unfriendly people Liu Yufei mentioned are naturally referring to the soldiers of the Kingdom of Dorumechia.
Seeing this, Kushana could only grit her teeth and glare at Liu Yufei with resentment. To be honest, she had never suffered such humiliation in her entire life.
"Walk!!"
No matter how bad she felt inside, Kushana was a proper political activist at this moment. She knew that some things required compromise, but she wouldn't give up so easily.
After saying that, Kushana immediately walked out of the valley, and Crotova followed closely behind.
"Your Highness, once we return to base and assemble our troops, we will surely be able to..."
Kushana immediately gave him a cold look, and Crotova, who had been babbling on, immediately shut up.
"Haven't we been humiliated enough today? A secret message tells my brother that Laputa has appeared and the secret stone has been stolen..."
"Ah! Second Prince..."
As a double agent, his identity was no secret. Calling him a spy was an understatement; Crotova was more of an opportunist, constantly shifting between sides. Looking at Kushana's smile, he silently lamented:
"As expected of a loving father and filial son, a respectful brother and a humble sister, are they all this ruthless?"
Unable to resolve the issue herself, Kushana decided to transfer her unease to her brothers, the royal brothers.
Crotova is truly unlucky! He was born a commoner and rose to a high position through cunning maneuvering, and now he increasingly feels how dangerous his methods are. He is now deeply embroiled in the internal power struggles of the royal family, like dancing on a balloon; no matter who gains power, he will ultimately be the one to suffer.
As the Dorumechia army withdrew, Yuba felt a sense of relief, but immediately became wary again, looking at Liu Yufei and saying:
"Mr. Liu, I never imagined that someone as reclusive and accomplished as you would also covet..."
"Pah! What are you saying? I don't care about your giant warriors, where's my cat? You're not leaving here until you tell me!!"
Despite their harsh words, the robots in the sky quickly disappeared, and the once enormous island gradually vanished. It turned out that Laputa had already arrived above the Valley of the Wind, but had used technology to become invisible!
Before Yuba could speak, the villagers of the Valley of the Wind arrived. Although they didn't know what had happened, they knew that the soldiers of Torumekia had been driven away.
And Liu Yufei emerged as the ultimate victor. So when Nausicaä saw Liu Yufei about to make things difficult for Yuba, she was the first to step forward and shout in their direction:
"I can give you what you want, but please release Master Yuba..."
"Nausicaä, go back quickly..."
Upon seeing Nausicaä emerge, Yuba's face turned ashen. The last thing he wanted to see was this girl in danger. Meanwhile, Liu Yufei gazed in Nausicaä's direction, tears welling in his eyes. As if he had found a long-lost treasure, Liu Yufei couldn't help but shout:
"Dog Egg...where the hell have you been? I've been looking for you for so long!"
"Ah????"
This scene was unexpected by neither Yuba nor Nausicaä. Liu Yufei, on the other hand, excitedly ran towards Nausicaä, shouting as he did so. Seeing such a freak rushing towards her, Nausicaä felt utterly devastated!
Dido, perched on her shoulder, leaped into the air and pounced into Liu Yufei's arms, its sharp claws scratching incessantly at Liu Yufei's face, as if to say...
"You're the one whose name is Gou Dan'er! Your whole family is called Gou Dan'er!"
