Chapter 133: Preparing to Leave (Part 3)
The sun in the sky is in the middle of the day, the sea is sparkling, and the gentle sea breeze blows through the fishing port.
After handing over forty kilograms of Flame Wheat Fruit to the Bluewater Caravan, Allen brought back two special wooden boats from Bluewater Harbor, two boats, and sailed all the way west along the coastline, and finally arrived at Fishing Harbor after several hours.
The special wooden boat is specially built for navigation in the Evil Sea, and compared to the ships in the river, the hull is relatively wide and the length is greatly reduced, which is not only conducive to commercial transportation of goods, but also allows the crew to detect the Kraken in time when climbing the wooden boat, reducing the Kraken's attack range.
The sides of the hull are very high to prevent the Kraken from climbing, and the wooden ship is made of a special wood made of iron wood, which is extremely hard, and the surface of the hull is played with a thick layer of black lacquer, which forms a delicious contrast with the white sails.
Alan roughly estimated the carrying capacity of this ship, because it was originally a merchant ship used to transport goods, so the carrying capacity was large, and it could probably accommodate three hundred warriors, which was considered a large capacity.
After the sailors who drove the ship in the Blue Water Collar left, Andy said: "Lord Viscount, these are the old sailors I found from the Blue Water Collar, all of them have rich experience in sailing, and all of them are veterans who have been adrift at sea for decades. Andy pointed to several old men with bitter faces behind him.
Several old sailors are basically about fifty years old, they have been adrift at sea for decades, and not long after they quit sailing, they were found by Andy, who wanted them to sail for Viscount Mu Sen, and of course a few people who already had grandchildren were not willing to go out on adventures again, after all, they were old, but they couldn't stand up to their family members with a few sword blades! Do they dare not agree? In desperation, they can only take their families, and the whole family relocated to the vicinity of Mu Senling's fishing port with the cooperation of the shadows.
"Which of you will drive these two boats?" asked Allen to the old men in front of him.
"Viscount! I ...... We will!" said the old sailor Dahl after hesitating for a moment, then looking at the few people behind him who were about to stop talking.
Old Dahl, now fifty-four years old, has gray hair, and his complexion is very dark because of his perennial wandering on the sea, similar to that of several other old men, his hands are covered with thick calluses, and his face is full of vicissitudes.
"Oh, you all will!" said Allen, surprised.
"Yes, Lord Viscount, this should be a special merchant ship of the Blue Water Caravan, and we all retired from the Blue Water Caravan!"
Only then did Alan remember that all he asked was stupid, only the blue water caravan in the blue water harbor had special wooden ships that could sail on the sea, since these old men were sailors of the blue water caravan, then they must be the sailors of the blue water caravan!
"Well, I don't know how you came to my Musen Territory, and I don't want to know, I just know that you can help me steer these two ships, then I will definitely not treat you badly!" Alan nodded and said lightly to these old men.
"Thank you, Lord Viscount!" After hearing these words, several old men, along with Dahl, were secretly relieved, and hurriedly thanked.
"Well, a few of them will be divided into two groups first, and they will take the warriors of our territory on the ship to familiarize themselves with some specific details of the sea, and I hope you can hand over some of the details of the sea!" Alan instructed.
"Yes, Lord Viscount!" said six old men in all.
Allen explored this unknown island this time, naturally he couldn't go alone, after all, although he was a middle-level knight, some things did require a lot of manpower to progress, just in case, Allen felt that he would take three hundred warriors to explore the reality of this big island.
Two days later.
"Viscount, supplies are ready!" said Antonio.
"Tell the warriors to get on board!" Alan nodded.
After Allen's order was given, a total of three hundred soldiers began to board two wooden boats leaning on the edge of the catch in an orderly manner, and Allen now named the two boats Musen No. 1 and Musen No. 2.
This time, the three hundred warriors were divided into two groups, a group of one hundred and fifty people, and entered the two ships of Musen No. 1 and No. 2 in turn, dressed in blue-black demon scale armor, holding spears, with long swords hanging on their waists and Qinghuang crossbows on their backs.
This time to this unknown island, Alan did not bring a war horse, one is because the sea war horse is not easy to transport, easy to get sick; the second is that this war horse occupies a lot of space, and the cabin is already a little insufficient to accommodate soldiers and materials, not to mention the war horse, the third is this nameless island, the terrain is unknown, once the terrain is rugged, not suitable for horses to advance, it is very likely that the gains outweigh the losses, the fourth is that the daily food consumption of horses is very large, once the island does not have enough food, the consequences are unimaginable, as for the food brought by the ship is only enough for the soldiers to go back and forth。
With the layers of white sails on the two ships, Alan is ready to go!
"Lord Viscount, be careful all the way!" Antonio knew that he could not persuade Lord Viscount, so he could only admonish.
"Well, Captain Antonio, during my absence, please cooperate with the nine departments to manage the Mu Sen Territory, now the Knights of the Green Desolation Order, in addition to the six, seven, eighty, and three squadrons I took away, the other five squadrons, and a thousand well-trained recruits will obey your dispatch, I hope you don't let me down!" Alan nodded.
"Antonio will not disappoint the Viscount!" said Antonio solemnly.
"Okay! I'm on the boat first!"
"Let's go!" As Alan raised his arms, the two wooden boats began to slowly sail out of the fishing port.
Antonio and the warriors of the Knights of the Blue Wilderness watched Eren and two ships leave.
"Captain!" Kant stood beside Antonio.
"Let's go! In the absence of the Viscount, we must guard the Musen Territory and wait for the Viscount's return!" Antonio said in a deep voice.
In fact, Antonio has 100% trust in the Viscount, since the Viscount insists on going to sea, there will be no danger, he has a deep understanding of the Viscount's skills, and the other warriors of the Blue Desolation Knights think about the same as Antonio, and have great confidence in Allen.
The waves carried the fishy wind, fluttering on the deck, splashing a splash, and the rumbling followed, and on the Musen No. 1, Alan was chatting with the old sailor Dahl.
"Lord Viscount, according to this chart, if the wind is fast these days, we can reach it in three days at the earliest!
In fact, Dahl has been a sailor for so long, and he has never been to such a far sea, and the blue-water caravans usually sail in the coastal areas of the mainland, so Dahl has no bottom in his heart.
Life is small in the face of the ocean, even the elemental knight of extraordinary strength cannot run wild in the ocean, if the one who dares to underestimate the power of the ocean, then the ocean will make it pay the price, and this price is life!
