...

Xela Setia couldn't hide it any longer and said anxiously, "Yes, my daughter... Scholar Dilac, that's my daughter Ladia Setia Gerald!"

Quik jumped up all of a sudden, "The advisor?"

Then he fiercely patted his forehead.

"I'm such a stupid pig! Green hair, so handsome, and that familiar figure, isn't it Miss Advisor?"

But there was no time to complain about being stupid now. Since the other party's mother came for help, how could he not assist? Safely escorting their family back to the Northwest Bay was his duty.

"Mrs. Setia? Where is Lady Lin right now?"

"She should be in the northern forest of Niceport City, and this parrot will lead us to the exact location."

"A parrot?"

Only now did Quik notice that a parrot had appropriately settled on Mrs. Setia's shoulder.

"Yes, this parrot communicates telepathically with my daughter, Ladia, and can sense when she's in danger."

Despite having many doubts, Quik did not doubt her. Miss Ladia is deeply trusted by Earl Grayman, and her mother should have no issues.

Moreover, since the trouble occurred in the forest, it shouldn't involve the Alliance government. More likely, it's bandits or wild beasts.

But if it really involves the Alliance government, then he can only seek help from the Foster family.

He immediately sent sailors to wake everyone in the cabin, then summoned the First Mate, the Second Mate, and Mrs. Ladia's mother to the captain's quarters.

Quik briefly explained the situation and made immediate arrangements:

He and the Second Mate would lead thirty people to the northern forest with Mrs. Setia to find Miss Ladia, while the Second Mate would lead the remaining ten men to guard the Southern Star.

Everyone had no objections and immediately began to act.

The on-duty sailors who had awakened everyone had already told their companions the reason. Everyone learned that the delicate and elegant Mister Dilac, who had been on the same ship for so long, was actually the advisor next to the lord. They were extremely surprised.

And now this beautiful advisor was in danger, and for a moment, the crowd was excited, clamoring to be heroes and save the beauty.

Quik skipped the pre-battle mobilization and immediately ordered thirty men to prepare their weapons and line up ashore.

A few curious little rookies eagerly wanted to sign up because they wanted to go outside the city to see it, and they found it thrilling to perform rescue missions in the dead of night.

Then they were locked in the captain's room.

There was a commotion in the cabin, and everyone took out their own equipment. For the safety of this southern journey, the Navy had made elaborate preparations. In addition to cannons and gunpowder, the Southern Star also carried 40 rifles equipped with breech-loading bayonets and ten "big sprinklers" that could fire shotguns — large-caliber short-barreled guns.

Xela Setia looked in amazement at the sailors carrying "long guns and short cannons" as they ran to line up on the pier.

Captain Quik ordered them to prepare their weapons, but they all took out strange things.
