Chapter: 22
"That way." Earl Hall smiled and bent his right arm, "This is the pride of being a father."
����
Prits Harbour, Oak Island, Royal Naval Base.
When Audrey walked out of the carriage holding her father's arm, she was suddenly shocked by the huge creature in front of her.
In the military port not far away, there is a majestic giant ship with metallic light shining all over it. It has no sails, only the watchtower, and two more tall chimneys, and two more open-air turrets lined up front and back. .
It is so majestic and so huge that the sailing battleships parked nearby are like newborn dwarves swarming giant spirits.
"The storm is on..."
"Oh my lord."
"Ironclad!"
...
Shouts of exclamation intertwined, and Audrey also felt the same shock. It was a miracle created by human beings, an unprecedented ocean miracle!
It took some time before the nobles, ministers, and members of the House of Commons recovered. At this time, a black spot in the midair grew from small to large, gradually occupying one-third of the sky, occupying everyone's sight, and making the atmosphere suddenly change. Solemn.
This is a gigantic giant floating in mid-air. It has extremely smooth and graceful lines. It is painted in dark blue as a whole. The strong and light alloy skeleton supports the cotton cloth with hydrogen bladders. The muzzle of the machine gun, the bombing port, the body of the flat-firing muzzle, the exaggerated hum of the high-phlogiston steam engine and the crazy rotation of the tail blades constitute a shocking movement.
The airship of the king's family arrived, with the majesty of looking down on everything from above.
A "Sword of Judgment" badge with a ruby ??crown facing down vertically reflects the sunlight on both sides of the box, which is a symbol of the Augustus family's heritage dating back to the last century.
Audrey is not yet eighteen years old, and has not yet participated in the "introduction ceremony". Under the guidance of the Queen, she officially entered Backlund's social occasion and declared her adulthood.
However, she didn't care too much, and even felt relieved that she didn't have to face the princes.
The "miracle" of mankind's conquest of the sky landed steadily. The first to descend from the escalator were the young and handsome guards. They wore red military uniforms, white trousers, ribbons, and held rifles. They lined up in two rows. Waiting for the appearance of King George III and the queen, prince and princess.
It's not that Audrey has never seen a big man, and she has no interest in it. Instead, her eyes wandered, looking at the two black-armored knights who looked like statues beside the king.
In this era of steel, steam and guns, there are still guys who insist on wearing full body armor!
The icy metallic luster and the deep black helmet gave off a feeling of heaviness, majesty, and obedience.
"Could it be the 'Punishment Knight' of a higher sequence..." Audrey's mind flashed a few words from the chatting of the elders at home. She was knowledgeable but did not dare to approach.
With the arrival of the king's family, the ceremony finally began, and the current prime minister, Lord Aguhid Negan, walked in front of everyone.
He is a member of the Conservative Party and so far the only big man who has become the prime minister in a non-noble capacity. He was awarded a lord for his outstanding contributions.
Of course, Audrey knows more. Agusid's brother, a major supporter of the Conservative Party, is called Pallas Negan, Duke Negan of this generation!
Agushid is in his fifties, tall and thin, with thinning hair and sharp eyes. After looking around, he said: "Ladies and gentlemen, I believe you have seen it. This is an iron-clad ship, an iron-clad ship that can overturn the times. Long 101 meters, 21 meters wide, high dry shipboard design, main armor belt thickness 457 mm, displacement 10060 tons, a total of four 305 mm main guns, 6 rapid-fire guns, 12 6-pound guns, 18 six-barreled guns Machine guns, 4 torpedo tubes, and a speed of 16 knots!"
"It will be a true overlord, and it will conquer the seas!"
Nobles, ministers, and members of parliament were in commotion. Just the Prime Minister's description was enough to make them imagine the horror of this ironclad ship, not to mention the real thing right in front of them!
Agusid smiled a little, gave a few more speeches, and then saluted King George III: "Your Majesty, please name it."
"Starting from Pulitzer Harbor, let's call it Pulitzer." George III looked very happy. JrNovels.com
