Chapter 297 Nassau
Shen Chen knew clearly that there would be no truth in James Kidd's mouth, but he still asked.
Kidd was a little drunk and replied: "I only know that one year my father promised that after this voyage, I would never go to sea again, and use the hidden wealth to dedicate to the queen, thereby obtaining a title, and I would be free and relaxed from now on." alive."
His eyes were full of memories, and of course anger, "But one day, bad news came from my father's former subordinates - he was wanted and was hanged in London as a pirate! His close subordinates immediately They betrayed him, divided his fleet, and fed his friends to the sharks. Even the clues to the treasures were found by them..."
"Please forgive me. Although I didn't have the same experience as you, it's not much better." Shen Chen did this in order to close the distance with Kidd. He made up a story based on his identity in this game world. His former identity.
"I am from a church family. For the glory of the gods, my ancestors embarked on the road of missionary work one by one. However, the harsh environment in the New World prevented them from coming back. I left home just to pursue the path of my ancestors and bring the gods to the world. Bring the glory to all the lost lambs." Shen Chen said piously.
I don’t know how much Kidd heard it. Maybe he was really drunk, or maybe William Kidd was a religious person. James Kidd nodded and said: "I have heard of such a story, although I will not because of it. I believe in doing this, and I don’t approve of your actions; but I still show my high respect for your actions.”
Log: "Your identity information has changed. Please continue to deepen the impression of your identity as a priest in the minds of other plot characters. When other people hear your deeds, they will unconsciously apply other impressions to you ( You will receive an additional reputation boost)!"
"Please note that you must ensure the credibility of your identity, otherwise your reputation will be greatly reduced!"
"You have gained 1,200 points of Kidd's favorability. When Kidd's favorability exceeds 3,000 points (friendly), you will get more in-depth clues to various tasks!"
"Actually, I am not very interested in your father's treasure, but the money can help me strengthen the church. At the same time, such deeds can also make more sailors believe in my god. Can you believe it? Do I have this point?" Shen Chen immediately struck while the iron was hot and said.
James Kidd suddenly vomited into the sea, and then said weakly: "Maybe, but I won't trust other people easily."
"I can understand. In fact, with your share, I have two treasure maps. They are both part of the Isu scriptures. Your father must be a man of firm faith!"
Shen Chen thought in his heart: "Only a ghost would believe what Kidd said. If you didn't know that this was a forged identity, you would have been deceived. I think you don't know any further information about the treasure. You just want to know about William." Kidd knows better and plans to use his identity to deceive... However, after all, you are also an important plot character, and this is the key point of the mission, so you can only do this first."
"You also have a share!" James Kidd almost exposed his emotions because of Shen Chen's information, and could only cover it up with retching. However, the smell of alcohol in his body suddenly sobered up a lot, and his back was soaked with cold sweat. .
He pretended to be dazed and said: "Then I'll count it on you. When I get to Nassau, I will go look for my father's old department..."
After saying that, James Kidd collapsed on the deck and fell into a deep sleep. Even Shen Chen deliberately used a little more force and did not wake up.
"You two, carry him to the cabin." Shen Chen also waved to the sailors, then staggered into the cabin.
"How much can you believe what he said?"
"You don't have to believe a word of it, but at least I have gotten close to him. When I get to Nassau, I will know the truth of James Kidd's words!"
Entering the captain's cabin, Shen Chen stood up straight, raised his glass, and answered Benjamin's questions with a smile.
Benjamin didn't ask about the authenticity of Shen Chen's life experience or the hidden treasure map. He also said with a smile: "Then we will wait and see!"
Log: You have initially gained Kidd's trust. The mission of "Pirate's Glory" has been changed. After arriving in Nassau, you will meet James Kidd privately. He will take you to find William Kidd's former subordinate - Crow ·Berdu.
…
After several days of sailing, a series of pearl-like islands appeared next to the portholes of the Sea Breeze. Countless boats with black flags drew white waves along the shoal.
"When a pirate is sleeping soundly, his dream is not to go to heaven after death, but to return to his favorite port of Nassau one day..." In Shen Chen's ears, the sailors hummed this ditty, which seemed to be I am glad that I am back here alive, and I am sad for my dead companions.
Around evening, under the surveillance of several small boats, the Sea Breeze finally saw the legendary port, where countless pirates set out to write their deeds on the ocean.
At this time, it is the busiest time of the day in Nassau. White sails shuttle between several trestles extending out of the blue water. Under the clear water, you can still see countless wrecks sunk on the seabed. Those are the Spanish Navy Destroyed her symbol.
But at this time, several huge warships were docked next to the wreckage of a ship with only the bow still exposed from the sea. This was a symbol of the resurgence of Nassau pirates. The terrifying firepower of more than 30 cannons on that side was life-threatening. fear.
Of course, compared with Nassau after the establishment of the Pirate Republic, it had not reached its peak at this time. The wooden houses on the shore were still somewhat dilapidated, like a messy slum, extending into the interior of the island.
The brick houses that Nassau merchants built in the past have not been repaired and are still in ruins.
The terrain of Nassau gradually rises from south to north. On the cliff at the northern end is a formidable fortress. This is a castle built by generations of merchants and pirates to resist naval attacks. It is condescending and has no stone. Even if the main fleet of a country attacks, it cannot shake its existence!
Although the Sea Breeze was a British sailing ship, when a black flag was raised and the sailors sang pirate ship songs in unison, all the residents of Nassau were alarmed.
This shows that a new group of pirates was born. They even dared to attack the official ship and successfully captured her!
…
The task log immediately reminded:
“You’ve entered the Nassau scene!!”
"The Nassau scene you are in is located at 25 north latitude and 77 west longitude. The current time is October 19, 1713, 18:29."
"Note: This world scene is the 'Pirate Camp First Scene'. When other candidates enter this scene during this time period, they will be locked in the vicinity of this time period and enter uniformly. You will face a time and world that have not changed at all. Everything you do may cause the synchronization rate to shift, leading to changes in the world plot!"
"Candidate Shen Chen, your current identity is the crew of the Sea Breeze (helmsman, doctor, first mate). Everything you do in Nassau will also lead to other pirate forces' favorability and reputation for your ship! ( Because your status is higher, your influence coefficient is higher)"
"Your current pirate reputation is Respected, you will be welcomed by the Nassau Pirates, and they will be in awe of your power!"
"Your current profession is a priest, please further explore the quest clues of this profession!"
"Your missions related to the Nassau scene are [The Beginning of the Legend] and [Glory of Pirates]. Please note that time points and synchronization rates may cause the mission to fail!"
"Isn't that the White Shark? They actually managed to escape the pursuit of the Fun, escaped from the storm, and escaped back to Nassau!!!"
While Shen Chen was deep in thought, a sailor, angry and panicked, pointed at the dilapidated sailboat in the corner of the port. They had been sailors on that ship for a long time, so naturally they would not fail to recognize her!
Although the White Shark and Parr had abandoned and betrayed them, Captain Parr's prestige was still there. Many sailors saw the White Shark and unconsciously threw aside the cables used to tighten the sails.
"What are you afraid of? This is the home of pirates. He gave up on us. No matter how he reasons, we are right! We can even go to him and get our treasure back!" Bawe saw the panic of the sailors and immediately said.
Hearing what the boatswain said, the sailors also had a backbone. Although the pirates were fierce and believed in the law of the jungle, once they came to Nassau, they had to act according to the rules among pirates, otherwise other pirates would attack them together.
"Yes, my wealth for several years has been on the White Shark!"
