Chapter 240: Eastern Gulf(1/2)
The life of a pirate is actually not as exciting as I imagined.
Most of the time, everyone is more willing to lie on the deck and enjoy the warm sunshine.
This is one of the few ways to stay warm in winter.
Baum set up the grill and began to direct his two men to prepare barbecue lunch for everyone.
From time to time, you can hear the angry roar of this guy.
The pork belly must be sprinkled with sugar when it is half cooked.
The oil consumption of chicken legs must be prepared with beer.
And when spreading salt, you must raise your arms so that you can inject soul...
It seems that at this time, our timid Baum finally found the courage to be a pirate.
Heath and Ashman chose to ignore this.
Although I hate to admit it, I can no longer change the fact that Baum became the third officer of the Milk and Bell.
Even the pirates who were stronger than Baum readily accepted him.
Because after the ghost ship incident, everyone was surprised to find that Baum was not injured at all, and he also brought everyone a lot of good news.
For example, when avoiding the bombardment of the ghost ship, he was the first to wake up, and the propeller was repaired.
The matter was trivial, but it had planted a seed of luck in the hearts of all the pirates.
It seems that Baum is a person favored by Poseidon and can always bring luck to everyone.
Don't underestimate this kind of feudal superstitious ideas. In the eyes of pirates, these ideas have already penetrated into the bone marrow.
Just like the navigator himself has a mysterious sense of connection with the underworld.
In view of everyone's approval, Heath and Ashima just pinched their noses and admitted.
I thought: "Let's just treat it as a mascot."
On the deck, Ding Xiaoyi was lying comfortably on a chair made of cables.
In my mind, I was thinking about the ghost ship.
Presumably that guy named Sardar is already looking for his whereabouts everywhere.
Being tricked by a disaster spirit level powerhouse would be enough to make him sleepless and sleepless if it were anyone else.
But he didn't care at all.
This time he blew up his spirit furnace, but he also gained a lot.
It was the first time that I came into contact with a disaster spirit level powerhouse at such a close distance. As expected, he was so powerful that it made people feel suffocated.
To be fair, if he fights alone, even if he summons the meat ball and the big head, he may not be the opponent of Sardar.
Sardar, who has reached the disaster spirit level, is like a god-like existence on the ghost ship, twisting the void at will and possessing almost massive spiritual energy.
There are also his subordinates, the first lieutenants whose strength is at the level of evil spirits.
It is indeed so powerful that it is frightening. Even so, it is not easy to find yourself on the sea. What's more, if you want to run away, Sardar will not be able to catch you.
"I have to speed up too!"
He is not afraid of returning, but it is okay to hide all the time. Sardar allowed himself to see the power of the disaster spirit level, and naturally he couldn't help but think about how to improve his strength as soon as possible.
At this time, Heath walked to the deck, hesitated for a moment, and came to Ding Xiaoyi's side.
"Did you see the reef behind the sea line? Past that reef, we have officially entered the eastern bay.
That is the territory of aliens.
Moreover, the Alliance is at war with aliens, which is very dangerous. Do you really want to take risks there??"
Heath pointed ahead, on the white coastline, a black dot about the size of a sesame seed.
"Of course, otherwise why would I borrow your boat!"
Ding Xiaoyi tasted the rum that Baum handed to him.
The fat man also thoughtfully inserted two slices of lemon and two slices of mint on top.
This will give the rum a different taste.
The taste is pretty good.
Much gentler than I expected.
Of course, compared with the two gourds of wine he got from Old Man Zao, the taste was as bland as a drink.
If you drink this kind of wine, you may not feel drunk even if you drink two barrels of it.
However, Ding Xiaoyi still smiled in response to Baum's thoughtful gesture.
Of course, this smile on Krutu's face looked a bit ferocious and remote.
Hearing the word 'borrow', the corners of Heath's mouth twitched inadvertently.
He swore that if he hadn't been unable to defeat this mysterious guy named Krutu, he would have really wanted to punch this guy in the face.
Just seeing the cruel smile on that cold face from the corner of his eye instantly extinguished this unrealistic thought in his mind.
"I will wait for you for three days at most. The supplies on the ship do not allow us to wait for you for more than one lunch!"
Heath hesitated for a moment before speaking out about it.
As soon as the words fell, he and A Shiman held their breaths involuntarily.
His eyes were fixed on Crutu's cheek, paying attention to this man's every move.
It wasn't until they saw Ding Xiaoyi nodding and writing down the time that the tension in their hearts relaxed.
In fact, I was not sure whether I could make it back to the ship within three days.
But he got a lot of money from Bai Pangpang.
Even if you don't catch the Cow and the Bell, you can still take the BB Car to get wherever you want to go.
This was also the reason why he dared to enmity with Sardar.
The Cow and the Bell are traveling very fast.
The reef island in the distance gradually changed from the size of a sesame seed, to the size of a fist, and then to a height that made everyone look up.
Heath carefully steered the Cow and the Bell through the reef area.
A piece of greenery on the sea in the distance appeared in everyone's sight.
That's the Eastern Gulf Islands, only 200 kilometers away from the Alliance's 25th District.
The war has not yet broken out at this time, but this place has basically become an area where the alliance and the aliens are fighting.
After carefully approaching the island, it was about ten kilometers away.
Heath stopped the ship.
If he went any further, he would no longer be able to guarantee the safety of the cows and the Bell.
He once saw with his own eyes that a foreigner lifted a five-ton stone with one hand and threw it on a pirate ship five kilometers away.
He is still impressed by the huge strength.
His original intention was to put down a small boat and let Crutu row into the island ahead.
But Ding Xiaoyi rejected it.
Taking out the glass bottle from before, the fish-man ears and gills inside were still fresh. After all, they were given as gifts, and they would be wasted if they are no longer used.
Put the fishman's ear gills behind your ears, and you will immediately feel connected to them.
"I hope I can see you again in three days!"
Ding Xiaoyi waved his hand as a farewell to Heath and others, and immediately jumped into the sea after a simple run-up.
"Plop~"
There were little waves splashing on the water. When Heath and others caught up and looked forward, Ding Xiaoyi's figure did not appear on the sea again.
"Gululu..."
The coldness of the sea water is beyond ordinary people's imagination.
The dark and empty space underwater is far more depressing than being on the surface of the sea.
Most people are prone to cold shock or phobia in such cold sea water.
But on the contrary, I feel more at ease as a fish in water.
He didn't feel the coldness of the sea at all, but soon he threw away the mermaid ear gills behind his ears.
Sure enough, there was nothing good about what was sent.
Within a few moments, I felt a pain behind my ears.
After taking it off, I felt completely relaxed.
To be continued...
