109. Let's go to the other side of the sea (II)

Charlotte Bay, west of the Azata, far across the coast is the Dongsheng Continent, but if you want to go there, you have to go southwest, after reaching the Ahimi Volcanic Islands, continue to the south to reach the Dederu Continent, and go west through the Volcanic Islands to approach the coastline of the Dongsheng Continent. Jinghua Villa is in the northeastern region of the Dongsheng Continent, and the mission location and the people to be found are all nearby, but because I don't know much about the Dongsheng Continent, when I get there, Lin Ziyue and a few people have discussed it, and the itinerary is probably slower, but it is necessary to properly explore the Dongsheng Continent.

As the first group of people to travel across continents in the Phantom World, Meng Li even bought a lot of notebooks and pencils for Lin Ziyue to save, and he planned to write down the things along the way and organize the plot expansion of the Phantom World. Since there was no way for a few people to use the teleportation array, Meng Li planned to wait until the voyage to completely nest in the cabin and concentrate on completing his travelogue. This thought seemed to be effective in reducing Meng Li's fear of water, so the other three could only pray that he would not suffer from severe seasickness after staring at the book for too long.

Lin Ziyue took advantage of the fact that before going to sea, she deliberately purchased daily necessities and food for nearly three months, selected a lot of things that were easy to store, and stored a lot of fruits and vegetables in the space.

Charlotte Bay naturally has no shortage of boats, but there is an even bigger surprise waiting for them.

"Old man, you just said that this ship can be transferred to the name of our mercenary team, right?" Lin Ziyue was a little excited, what does this mean? It means that the entire mercenary team has the right to use this ship, maybe they can use this general prop to get on and off the ship directly, but the reality is not as good as she thought, and then the old man behind the counter is saliva.

"Yes, any of you can use the ship, do you still need to ask me about this kind of thing? But judging by your expression, I'm afraid that some companions are not around, right? The teleportation array can be loaded on the ship, but you can't do it on this ship! It's not that I said that you young people are all whimsical! What kind of ship is this! This is a medium-sized Haiyan-class merchant ship! It is your fate to survive to the volcanic archipelago and not capsize in it! Drive to the other side? Do you know how far the Dongsheng Continent is, you will say that you want to drive to the other side! Young people, don't be too ambitious! Going to Ahimi to transport some volcanic mines and blood drills back is no better than anything else! Is Dongsheng a place you can go? The materials, charts, and manpower you have to prepare are not guaranteed, and you are still far behind!"

Lin Ziyue's face turned red when she was said, she nodded again and again, and hurriedly asked while the old man was drinking water: "Thank you for the old man's guidance, can we install a teleportation array if we go to change to a giant whale-level ship now?"

The old man touched his chin and curled his beard, cleared his throat, and said, "No!"

"Why?"

The old man's gaze was a little evasive, but his head was still raised high: "Because our Charlotte shipwrights don't disdain to pretend!

Before Meng Li's gloomy face completely exploded and tore the old man apart, he was dragged out of the dilapidated cabin by Xuanyuan Yan and desperately. Lin Ziyue's face was not very good-looking, she felt like she was being put on a show by this old man, and the little expectation that had just risen was gone, she sighed: "Alas, then so be it, you can hand over the ship to us as soon as possible." ”

"No!"

"Why is that?" Xuanyuan Yu's face was not good-looking, and this sentence almost jumped out word by word. He felt that this old man was deliberately making things difficult for them, he had bullied Lin Ziyue like this, if Xuanyuan Yu hadn't seen the wrinkles on his face, he would have already taken such a bad breath, so he wouldn't have continued to watch him spit here.

The old man cleared his throat a little embarrassed, as if he realized that he had gone too far: "Well, I'm sorry, I just had a gaffe. But it's not for me to say, there are few places on the Asatta continent that have the output of magic crystals, but Dongsheng can use them as coins to exchange, and naturally there is a surplus that can be used to set up a teleportation array on the ship, but that is their national project, how can any city lord here be willing to give us magic crystals? Your Excellency, you are all adventurers with miraculous skills, why don't you go to sea with merchant ships? Just protect them from sea monsters, anyway, your destination is the same......"

Lin Ziyue suddenly understood what the old man meant, and felt a little funny, and the anger she had just received suddenly disappeared, so she said directly to the cheeky old man: "Old man, what is the name of your business? How can we get in touch?"

"Hey, it's still a sensible girl!" The old man glared at Xuanyuan Yu, who was scolding silently with a black face, touched his beard with a smile, and looked at Lin Ziyue, "You go directly to the Bora Chamber of Commerce, good boy, you can take this token." When the time comes, you go to the port to inquire, and go over and show the token to tell them your intentions! Remember, tell them that Elder Qian took you there, and if you arrive at the Dongsheng Continent intact at that time, you will naturally have your commission haha!"

Lin Ziyue took the marble token with a smile, there was a fiery ruby that exuded a sense of warmth, and a circle of copper coins was engraved around it, and the copper coins were engraved with four traditional characters of "Jianyang Tonghai", and the lines were simple. Lin Ziyue thanked the old man, then the old man glanced at Xuanyuan Yu, snorted again, and sat back behind the counter to close his eyes and recuperate. Before Xuanyuan Yu couldn't help but demolish the house, Lin Ziyue hurriedly pulled him out of the door, called Xuanyuan Yan and Meng Li at the door, and hurriedly went to the dock without stopping.

A few people didn't see it, and after they went out, Elder Qian immediately showed a lucky smile on his face, and pointed his finger at the table and said to himself: "Now Xiao Shao's safety is settled, and the road home will definitely be smoother." That kid was clever at a young age, and he would definitely understand the meaning of me taking out this token. ”

Lin Ziyue and the others inquired all the way, and learned that the Bora Chamber of Commerce was indeed a big chamber of commerce, and the origin came from the immigrants who moved to Aisata from Dongsheng, and the route was originally explored by several of their immigrants in order to recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors. More specifically, according to Xuanyuan Yu and Meng Li's speculation, this kind of large-scale route and cross-continent journey is definitely not open to players yet, and the teleportation array is just the tip of the iceberg of the illusory world, and they have rubbed the door of the development of this world itself. The marble token was very useful, and after showing it to the crew at the dock, they immediately happily called the steward of the Bora Chamber of Commerce.

"Just a few of you?" the forty-year-old steward looked at the next few people, "although adventurers like you can't judge age by their appearance, but seeing that you don't even have a few pounds and taels of meat, this is a long voyage, can you endure this hardship? Who introduced you here?"

Lin Ziyue knew that there were two people who were arrogant and impatient, so she immediately stepped forward and said, "It was Elder Qian from the Ship Trading Center who introduced us here, because we were going to visit friends in the Dongsheng Continent, and we originally planned to charter a ship, but he recommended to us that it was safest to go with the merchant ship." ”

Seeing that it was a woman at the head, the middle-aged steward looked at people with his nostrils: "Do you have that qualification if you want to rub the merchant ship without looking at it? What are you doing on the ship like this? Aren't you wasting our resources to raise a few wild cats and wild dogs? You can't even lift a cargo box, and you meet a sea monster to deliver food? I'm afraid that the token that Elder Qian gave you was not stolen by you!

After saying that, the middle-aged steward still wanted to grab it, Lin Ziyue was also angry with his words, and the Botisi on her wrist had already opened her mouth, ready to turn into a prototype at the first moment she took out her cane to attack her hand, and it was not bad to devour the soul for a long time, and it was not bad to take advantage of Lin Ziyue's reluctance to stop the second meat.

Xuanyuan Yu grabbed Lin Ziyue's wrist, quietly pulled her behind him, and said indifferently to the steward: "Don't look down on people, I don't know who thinks that someone's door is not closed properly and left a crack, there is a dog's head exposed, a guy who looks down on people with dog eyes." ”

"Bah! Where did you come from, bastard! This token is a token of my Bora Chamber of Commerce! You stole it, right? Wait for me!"

"We didn't stealβ€”" Xuanyuan Yu's brows tightened, but he was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

"Who believes you! Don't you just want to come and steal goods in disguise! We haven't seen many thieves in recent years? You wait for me! I'm going to find a patrol to arrest you nowβ€”"

A crisp and a somewhat immature voice interjected into the dialogue: "Lao Yi, what's wrong?"

The middle-aged man who was called "Lao Yi" disappeared just now, and immediately put on a flattering smile, which made Lin Ziyue disgusting. Lao Yi Chong, a chubby young man about seventeen years old, nodded his head again and again, and said, "Young Master Qian, it's not a big deal, it's just a few liars who want to get on the boat, I'll go to the guards right away to take them away......"

The little fat man patted the man on the shoulder: "Okay, okay, Lao Yi, you go and watch those sailors load the goods first, don't let them miss anything." ”

The middle-aged man was sent away, and the little fat man turned to Lin Ziyue and them: "Someone has long called me when they see that something is wrong, I was standing behind the barrel over there just now, and I heard your conversation." This fool still wants to monopolize the Elder's token for his own benefit, and he doesn't want to think about the consequences after being discovered, he is really stupid. Will you show me Grandpa Qian's token?"

When Lin Ziyue heard this, she handed over the token this time, and the little fat man took out a thumb-sized hammer from his arms with a little difficulty, and knocked on the fiery red diamond, and the diamond actually came out with blue light between the collisions, but it was just dangling around on the surface, and it returned to bright red.

"Thank you!" the little fat man returned the token to Lin Ziyue, "You can keep this first, and the transaction will be completed after we arrive in Dongsheng, and then return it to me." This can be used for lighting when necessary. ”

"So what are we going to do now?"

"Come with me, I'll take you on the boat to have a look, and after you have a room to talk about the task, you'll be free to move around......" The little fat man said as he walked to the front to lead the way for the four of them, "I went to Dongsheng this time to go home to worship my ancestors, this is the first time I have gone to sea alone." It's a long way to go, and accidents often happen, so we hire some adventurers to help out every time. If the goods are well preserved, then you can divide according to the loss statistics, generally ranging from three to five. ”

Lin Ziyue nodded, and received the token in her hand into the storage space, seeing her hand, the little fat man did not hide his envy: "It's so good, space storage...... If only I could practice, how many goods could be delivered at one time! Who still needs to cross the sea at the risk of life and death, don't look at how sweet the scenery of the bay is, when you go to the deep water, you will know, the sea is the ancient pit of life, and the pit does not pay for the death of the dead, but people always want to fill it in......"

Hearing the little fat man say so pessimistic, Lin Ziyue comforted him: "It's okay, this kind of thing is originally seven points of personnel and three points of heaven." No matter what happens, it's important to have a strong faith. ”

The little fat man stuck out his tongue like a breathless pug: "You must be lucky." Only someone with great luck would say such a thing. You must have never seen a natural disaster, only people who do not know the power of nature would so leisurely believe that they have the strength to resist. ”

Lin Ziyue sneered, she was embarrassed to say that if these four people work together, it can actually cause some kind of natural disaster. However, for this somewhat pessimistic but very broken little fat man, Xuanyuan Yu and Xuanyuan Yan have a lot of good feelings. Meng Li was a little impatient, he kept looking at the water outside the wooden bridge, and retracted his neck with disgust.

"Yes, my name is Qian Qiu, the hill of the hills. ”

"Lin Ziyue, Xuanyuan Yan, Xuanyuan Yu, Meng Li. Xuanyuan Yan said as he pointed his finger at everyone, "Regarding the task of guarding the caravan, the four of us are actually enough. Do you have any other guards?"

The little fat man Qian Qiu nodded, and the flesh on his neck trembled: "Of course there is." As far as the four of you can do, I have a lot of guards in my own house. Of course, your main responsibility is to ensure the integrity of the goods, and we will be responsible for the people, and you can also deal with the threatening creatures. But...... If I really can, I don't have to continue to recruit people, after all, the adventurers in these years are very young and can't afford to cross the sea!"

Xuanyuan Yu was keenly aware of the side meaning of those words, that is, the strength of most players was not enough, so they had not yet reached the ability requirements to cross the sea. In other words, what they are about to face is definitely not only what the local residents of the Phantom World are facing, this kind of commission is probably a mercenary squad or guild mission, and the player's participation will naturally have a special plot or adventure. Xuanyuan Yu is now worried about whether their joining will make this caravan usher in a catastrophe, peeking at Lin Ziyue, who was listening to the little fat man's grinding mouth, Xuanyuan Yu decided to suppress his speculation in his heart.

If you're lucky, just stick to it, and if you're unlucky, add mine......

Xuanyuan Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, looking into the distance, and the white sails dotted the sky and the sea.

Xuanyuan Yan walked past Xuanyuan Yu, pulled him who was pondering, and hurriedly followed the people in front of him, and whispered to Xuanyuan Yu: "You don't have to worry, there is something I haven't told you." The original sin power of jealousy includes control over water, as the title creator, Leviathan, is a water element. It's just that I don't have a compatibility with water, so I almost never use it, but to be more specific, my smoke is originally a mixture of water vapor and heat. If there is a real emergency on the sea, I have the self-confidence to keep a boat. ”

Xuanyuan Yu answered, and stepped up to keep up with the people in front.
