Chapter 18: No Wind Zone
Great route, no wind belt.
The sea boy who lives on the sea has an understanding and cognition of the windless zone, which is a Jedi who can only enter but not leave. The sea was like a giant beast with its mouth open, devouring those who dared to trespass into their territory. It's not to go to the Jedi, no one will take the initiative to get there.
And now the Golden Jack is sailing in the windless zone, with the aim of sending little Lori Gloria home. Although the sea tower stone inlaid on the bottom of the ship can reduce the risk of being attacked by large sea kings, Carter and the other subordinates are still terrified.
But since it was Xiao Bai's decision, they couldn't oppose it. After all, according to the rules of the sea, the captain is the one who can decide the final destination of a ship, and the other people on board are just partners or helpers to help the captain achieve his goals. When a captain is determined to go to a certain place, the crew of the ship does not want to leave, so they can only comply.
"Uncle, Goliath hasn't played enough yet, and she doesn't want to go home." Little Lori held Xiao Bai's hand and shook it, and said coquettishly.
"But an agreement is an agreement, you teach me to be domineering, and I will send you home, this is our agreement." Xiao Bai gently stroked Golia's little head and said with a smile.
"Hmph." Golia, who failed in coquettish tactics, shook her head, her eyes rolled, and she didn't know what the hell she was doing.
"Captain Xiao Bai, two fighting pirate ships have been spotted ahead." The subordinate holding the telescope and looking at the wind suddenly reported from the observation deck.
"Whoa! There is a pirate ship in the windless zone! Carter couldn't believe what he was seeing.
In the windless zone, besides them, there are other pirate ships? And it's still two, but fighting in the windless zone, aren't they afraid of attracting sea kings?
Even in these days, the long-ingrained concepts and cognitions in his heart have been broken one by one, but the scene in front of him still makes Carter feel incomprehensible! How did the windless zone, which was extremely dangerous and lifeless in legends, suddenly become a paradise for pirates or ships to sail?
Was it because I was too lonely and unheard of before? Or is the world changing too fast?
You must know that the reason why your group was able to drive safely in the windless zone and not be threatened by the sea kings was not only because the bottom of the Golden Jack was inlaid with sea building stones, but more importantly, the occasional sea kings were frozen into ice by the owner as soon as they appeared!
"The route remains the same." Xiao Bai looked at a nautical chart and said without raising his head.
This nautical chart is also one of the ones recovered from Bids. It is a nautical chart of the windless zone of the vortex sea. The species, climate, mineral deposits, and so on of some of the above islands are all available on the island, which is extremely detailed.
Of course, most of these islands are only shallow in the windless zone, and there is very little information about the islands in the deeper seas. Obviously, the deeper seas have not been carefully explored by the pirates.
Even with the advent of new technologies that can safely navigate windless zones, this does not mean that windless zones are free of danger. The shallow depths of the windless zone are fine, and the exploration ships that go deep into the windless zone can already be congratulated that two out of ten can come back.
"Wow, uncle, it's our Nine Snake Pirates." Little Lori Golia exclaimed in surprise.
"The Nine Snake Pirates?" Xiao Bai smiled slightly, with an inexplicable taste. "Then let's go first."
Little Lori Golia, who hadn't heard Xiao Bai's meaning clearly, first heard a thunderous sound, and then, from high in the sky, there was a sharp sound of breaking the air.
But before she had time to look up, with a "hula" sound, her eyes went dark, and she felt that something was sticking to her waist, and then she lost the feeling of landing on the ground under her feet, and there was a wind whistle in her ears.
In just an instant, she understood what had happened - she was hugged by Xiao Bai's waist! At this time, her vision has been cleared, and she can intuitively see the changes in the environment around her.
She was held by Xiao Bai with one hand, but at the same time, the two of them were suspended high in the air, from here, Goliath could see very clearly that on the sea level in the distance, there was a long galleon across the sea, and the fire that only had when the cannon was fired was lighting up from its deck, accompanied by muffled thunder, not only that, but below the deck line, it was also constantly lighting up the fire. But the fierce artillery couldn't stop the Nine Snake Pirates from approaching. There was even a small figure that had boarded the galleon and slaughtered all sides on deck.
"It's Joan of Arc." Little Lori Golia was pleasantly surprised to see her acquaintance.
……
……
At this time, Ludreke, the pirate who was a slave trader, was in a completely different mood.
He was still in a good mood, just half an hour ago.
"Haha, stupid women, the women of the Amazon can sell tens of millions of Baileys! Why should Lao Tzu hand it over!? Ludrick smirked and yelled at his men, "Little ones, get out of here, don't let those crazy women catch up." ”
With that, he stepped out of the cabin.
In the cabin, there were several little girls, who were what made Ludric proud—they were several Amazonian girls, now all of whom were tightly covered and covered with their mouths, and when they saw Ludrike, they struggled and whimpered.
Ludley is a frequent visitor to the windless zone. As long as you are careful not to make a big move, the windless zone that is extremely dangerous in the eyes of many people is simply an excellent safe route in Ludley's mind.
There are no wreaking pirate ships here, and there won't be any unsightly raiders. Even Ludrek believed that with his ship's guns and his sword, he would be able to deal with any enemy who dared to attack him.
There is no need to suffer from the vagaries of the sea, there is no wind belt without wind, and without considering threats such as sea kings, it is peaceful enough to make any navigator sleepy.
What's even more rare is the "abundance" here! Yes, it is "abundance".
This kind of abundance doesn't mean materials or anything, that kind of thing Ludreck doesn't care about. The richness in his eyes is the creatures that live on the islands and seas here!
Exotic beasts, fishmen, merfolk, human populations of various races.
The most wonderful thing is that because of the existence of the windless zone, the people living here can only say that their understanding of the outside world is shallow in his opinion! Even if you rob a boatload of people, there will be no sequelae. No one will stand up for them.
Coupled with the danger of windless belts, these creatures, both human and exotic, have quite strong combat power, which is the favorite of those world nobles, and is used as an excellent slave to watch the fight arena and stimulate their emotions and passions.
These powerful slaves are quite easy to sell and extremely expensive goods.
No one interfered with him, and no pirate could break into the windless zone and steal business with him, making it an excellent hunting ground!
