Elder Zuma couldn't figure out what the problem was for the moment, so he could only change the subject first, hoping that the other party was just joking. After all, although he heard that the Dusk Tower was building ships, he didn't think that the Dusk Tower could suddenly own a ship.
A huge fleet.
"Okay, then it's settled. I hope Jindu Kingdom will not come up with any more excuses for delay." Lin Li did not immediately respond to Elder Zuma's words, but seriously confirmed it with Kantoli before turning around.
Looking over his shoulder, he smiled and said to Elder Zuma: "I don't know what Elder Zuma is talking about. Why do you think I will be interested?"
Hearing Lin Li's confirmation, Kantoli was lifted up for a moment in his mind, but he quickly put it down again. In his opinion, the reason why the other party said such words was probably because he couldn't stand what he said.
He was bluffing. He had the same idea as Elder Zuma. Apart from the huge transport fleet, he really couldn't think of any other way for the other party to transport a large number of magic crystal naval guns back to the Breeze Plains.
Elder Zuma frowned slightly, feeling something was wrong in his heart. However, facing Lin Li's inquiry from behind, he could not think about it any more. He could only put his mind down for the time being and said: "This time the founding of our country will
The celebration coincides with the opening of the sea market that is held once every ten years. There are many specialties there that are extremely precious in the endless sea. Isn’t President Ferre interested in going to have a look?"
"Marine market?" Hearing the mirage, Lin Li couldn't help but think of the bustling mirage on Cage Island in the world created by Gresco. Indeed, as Elder Zuma said, for this event that is said to occur once every ten years,
Haishi Linli's interest is actually greater than participating in the founding celebration of Jindu Kingdom.
The envoys from the Kingdom of Jindu stayed in the Tower of Dusk for three days and visited the Magic City of the Tower of Dusk before saying goodbye and leaving. They just stayed outside the Magic City. The Tower of Dusk did not invite them.
, it has to be said that it is a big regret to visit the Sky City above the Tower of Dusk.
After sending away the envoys from the Kingdom of Jindu, Lin Li returned to the shipyard of Alterland again. The ferocious-looking steel beast was quietly entrenched in the shipyard, waiting for the storm of the Endless Sea to attack it.
Test. On the docks on both sides of the dock, the shipbuilders and many craftsmen who participated in the construction work were all excitedly waiting for the first trial voyage of their works.
"President, please name this battleship." A person in charge came to Lin Li and said with great respect. This battleship has not been named yet, and is only waiting for the president to name the battleship.
"Let's call it Xingchen." Lin Li saved the trouble and directly transferred the name of Xingchen, but he also knew very well that compared with the real Xingchen, there was still a huge gap between his battleship.
Soon, the huge name of the ship, Star, was painted on the side of the battleship, as well as the emblem of the Tower of Twilight. Then, Lin Li took some crew members and stepped onto the deck of the Star. Not all of these crew members participated.
Most of the people who built this battleship were recruited from various ports () After all, this battleship is not the real Star, and Lin Li has no way to pilot it with just one person's strength like he can control the real Star.
it.
The strength of each of these crew members is quite good. They are basically above level 15 and can be regarded as experienced sailors. However, there has never been any large-scale ocean-going fleet here in Qingfeng Plain.
This was the first time they had seen such a huge battleship. Therefore, after stepping onto the deck, there were constant exclamations from the crew. To them, the Star was just like a city on the sea.
"Star? These big guys are quite similar in body shape, but I'm afraid it's just an appearance!"
Amidst the endless exclamations, Lin Li suddenly heard someone say such a sentence. Although the voice was very low, it could not escape the ears of him, a strong man in the holy realm. Lin Li immediately turned his head and looked at
After scanning the crew, I saw two crew members in the crowd. Although they looked unremarkable, they seemed a little out of place with the people around them.
Lin Li felt very strange. What the other person said just now seemed to mean that he knew the real Star. But you must know that Lin Li himself knew about the Star from the world created by Gresco thousands of years ago.
, then how did the other party, a little sailor, know about the Star?
With questions in mind, Lin Li walked over, and the people around the two crew members also seemed to be avoiding the plague. At this time, the two crew members even wanted to attack the crowd.
It was impossible to hide, so they could only stand there helplessly, waiting for possible punishment. After all, if they were the ship owners themselves, they would not want others to speak ill of their ship secretly, even though that was not their responsibility.
It seems that it may not be a bad thing.
"Do you know the Star?" After Lin Li walked over, he did not scold or even punish the two crew members as people thought. Instead, he waved the crew members around him to leave. He asked the two crew members such a question that made others feel puzzled.
if.
"Sir, I'm really sorry. My eldest brother just can't speak clearly. This Star is already the most majestic battleship we have ever seen. How can there be any other ship comparable to it?" The younger one of the two spoke.
The crew member, and the eldest brother he mentioned had a full beard and looked much more fierce.
"Don't be nervous, I'm just asking. Do you know the Star?" Lin Li waved his hand to indicate that the other party shouldn't be nervous, and asked the same thing to the bearded crew member.
"I..." The bearded man hesitated for a moment, looked at the companion next to him, and said: "To tell you what, my family has been making a living at sea for generations, so I know some legends about the sea. The Star you mentioned, I only learned from the legend.
From what I heard, I just talked nonsense, and I beg you to forgive me."
Legend of the sea? Generations of people who have been living on the sea for generations? Lin Li looked at the two people, gently touched his chin, and said: "I'm afraid you two are not ordinary sailors. What you did before, I don't care, but I
I don’t want my men to hide anything from me. Now, I’ll give you a chance to explain. If you don’t want to, I won’t make it difficult for you, but I won’t keep you on this ship.”
The bearded man was straightforward. As soon as he heard Lin Li's words, he turned around and left. However, the brother beside him grabbed him and turned back to Lin Li and said: "Sir, we do have difficulties. If you
You must know if you can change the place, I will tell you everything."
Lin Li smiled. He waved his hand and released the realm world, directly covering the two people, and then said, "Okay, can we talk now?"
When Lin Li released the domain world, the two crew members suddenly became very nervous. However, when they were enveloped by the domain world, they all showed a trace of despair on their faces. Obviously, they had felt that such power could not be achieved at all.
He was not something he could compete with. He was like an ant in front of the young captain.
"Well, since the Lord has asked, we can only tell the truth." The bearded man said with a slump on his face and a hoarse voice: "The original identities of our two brothers. I am not afraid of your laughter if I tell you. They are on the sea.
They are just a bunch of low-class pirates. We were unlucky enough to bump into the fleet of the Kingdom of Jindu, and as you saw, we were the only two left alive."
"Unfashionable pirates, I guess you are not unfashionable, otherwise why would you think of hiding on my battleship in the Twilight Tower. I am afraid that I am the only one who can avoid being wanted by the Kingdom of Jindu. I don't care about your past.
Are you a pirate or something? If you want to work here, tell me your origins honestly!" Lin Li's tone suddenly became stern. He didn't care about pirates or not, nor about the Kingdom of Jindu, but
But he couldn't tolerate his subordinates hiding anything. Although with the strength of these two people, even if they stayed on the Star, they wouldn't cause much trouble, but Lin Li was not willing to be used as a shield for others.
"I have a nickname at sea called Blackbeard. I have six ships and hundreds of brothers under my command. However, they were all crashed on the Jindu Kingdom's fleet. Only my brother Jack and I escaped. Because we had robbed the Jindu Kingdom before.
There are several merchant ships, so the people of Jindu Kingdom are unwilling to catch us. We have issued bounties from Jindu Kingdom to Qingfeng Plain. There is a reward of 100,000 gold coins on my head. You can take it if you need it, but
My brother is not on the bounty, please let him leave." Blackbeard was also willing to go all out, and before Lin Li could ask any more questions, he shook his bottom clean like beans.
"One hundred thousand gold coins? Haha," Lin Li laughed. One hundred thousand gold coins were nothing to him. However, he could also hear that this black beard was not as simple as he seemed. What he said seemed to be
It's very loyal, but in fact it's more about playing tricks on yourself.
I’m afraid everyone with some knowledge knows the relationship between the Tower of Twilight and the Kingdom of Jindu. Since Blackbeard is the leader of a large-scale pirate group at sea, how could he not know about it. Based on the relationship between the Tower of Twilight and the Kingdom of Jindu,
With such an antagonistic relationship, how could the Tower of Dusk hand over the people wanted by the Kingdom of Jindu for a mere 100,000 gold coins?
"Blackbeard, Jack, very good, you two can stay. Again, I don't care if you were pirates before, but you are my crew members on my ship, and you must do your best for me." Lin Li said.
Zi took back the realm world, let go of Blackbeard and Jack, and at the same time took out a potion, threw it to Blackbeard, and said: "I think your strength is more than this, this potion can cure your injuries.
If you are not afraid of my doing anything, just drink it."
"With your strength, you have to take care of things that we can't even lift a finger on." Blackbeard took the potion and without any hesitation, unscrewed the cork and drank the potion.
In fact, from guessing the identity of the other party as a pirate, and then contacting the thick beard, Lin Li already had information about the great pirate Blackbeard in his mind. Don't look at it, the Tower of Dusk's business has always been in Qingfeng Plain.
Inland, it was not until the emergence of the Jindu Kingdom that they began to truly come into contact with maritime forces.
However, Lin Li's understanding of the forces at sea is no less than those who have been living in the sea. You must know that in Lin Li's hand, there is also a very detailed navigation information obtained from the Kingdom of Jindu.
The navigational information not only recorded marine information, but also introduced a considerable number of maritime forces.
Of course, those who can be recorded by the Jindu Kingdom are definitely not ordinary characters, and Blackbeard and the pirate group he led happened to be on the list. I am afraid it is precisely because of this that the Jindu Kingdom wiped out Blackbeard's
After the pirate group, there is also a huge bounty on Blackbeard's wanted list, and he shows that he wants to see people dead or corpses.
According to the information of Jindu Kingdom, Blackbeard’s name is Julio. It should be said that he comes from a pirate family. His ancestors are said to date back to the dark ages and are the leaders of a group of pirates on the endless sea. Although Julio is very light
He said that he once only had six ships with a few hundred people, but in fact those six ships were not ordinary goods. Anyone who has seen it knows that although the ships under Blackbeard cannot compare with the giant alchemy ship of Jindu Kingdom,
But compared to the naval warships of the two countries, they are countless times stronger.
In the world of Anriel today, except for the giant alchemy ships of the Kingdom of Jindu, most of the ships are still powered by sails. The six warships of Blackbeard are also powered by sails on the surface, but
In fact, beneath the simple wooden exterior, there is an alchemical power system that is said to have been passed down for thousands of years.
Therefore, not to mention the combat effectiveness of the warships of the Blackbeard Pirates, the bursting speed is definitely top-notch. On the endless sea, fast speed is a great advantage. Anyone who is targeted by the Blackbeard Pirates
Almost no merchant ship can escape from their hands. And with this speed, the Blackbeard Pirates have escaped safely from encirclement and suppression by the navies of various countries countless times.
It's a pity that this time, Blackbeard was killed, six warships were broken into pieces, and hundreds of his men were also fed to the fish. Although he and his first mate Jack were lucky enough to escape at the last moment, their strength also dropped due to injuries.
Legends below. Although it is said that they need to be treated if they are injured, the Kingdom of Jindu has issued a reward, so they dare not show their faces in public at all. They are pirates that everyone wants to beat. At this time, are they worried that no one will add insult to injury? (Unfinished)
