Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

A flock of birds in the forest is not as good as a bird in hand. (Please search Bayi Chinese Net, the fastest updated novel website!) Of course, the discerning person could see that Luo Zhengdao was right, probably because he didn't want to leave a negative impression of being refuted by Luo Zhengdao in front of the subordinates who came with him, Gaode Needham glanced at him quietly, and then said expressionlessly:

"Oh well! I wish His Excellency the Earl the best of luck, and I hope that the next time we see you, you will be so funny. ”

Seeing this aristocratic samurai who was obviously a second-year patient in Luo Zhengdao's opinion, brushed his sleeves away, he couldn't help but recall a popular saying that circulated in the old world, and muttered in a low voice:

"We are all flowers and bones of the motherland, but later some people have grown into flowers, and some people have grown into wonders. Alas! ”

Since everyone can't talk about it, then don't talk about it at all, the two sides hastily ended this unhappily informal meeting, and Luo Zhengdao sighed helplessly. Then, recalling the scenes of the right student, he stepped open the door of the single room next to the captain's quarters. Recently, he insisted on coming here every day to visit Vina Dubov, and the half-elf beauty was in good condition, and it was impossible for him to live and sit and lie down like a normal person for a while, so he could only be accommodated by Luo Zhengdao to the other party's schedule and come to visit at a fixed time period.

"Thank you for the flowers, Will, I heard that Baron Gaude just came?"

For the half-elf beauty who is closest to him in terms of personal feelings, Luo Zhengdao doesn't need to be mysterious, skipping those clichΓ©s that taste the same as chewing wax, he focused on retelling the meeting process and the cause of the conflict between the two, and said with a distressed expression:

"Vina, do you know the past experience of Gao De?"

"Of course, Baron Gao De was once a very famous adventurer, after the fall of Baron Ning Qi's fiefdom, he led a heavy cavalry brigade to rush out of the encirclement of the goblin army, and his combat strength was so strong that he didn't look like a human!"

Hearing this, Luo Zhengdao couldn't help but show a look of surprise, and he said with great emotion:

"Oh, is that so? I can't complain that he is so confident, and speaking of which, the proud big rooster is quite proud of his capital. ”

Hearing Luo Zhengdao's teasing rhetoric, comparing Gaode to a rooster, Vina Dubov couldn't help but laugh, which happened to involve the gunshot wound in her back, and she couldn't help coughing, and her face was flushed crimson.

Seeing this, Luo Zhengdao hurriedly handed over the water cup, drank a few sips of water, and Vena's breathing smoothed out, she looked at her student with a smile, and said:

"Well, your analogy is suspicious, but it's not wrong!"

was teased by Vina, Luo Zhengdao didn't know what to say, shook his head and diverted the topic and said:

"Okay, rest in peace, I'm going to continue to supervise the repair of the ship, and if anything happens, send someone to inform me immediately."

"Well, you go get busy!"

"Hey, hurry, hurry, don't stand there and be lazy. Hey, Jack below, throw the hammer at Lao Tzu. ”

The tinkling noise of repairs continued, and after some simple repairs, the pirates concentrated on solving the big problem of the broken foremast, and the repair of the damage to the hull continued in a regular manner.

To put it bluntly, pirates are a group of poor people who go out to rob together, and if you want to rob the rich and help the poor, it is also robbing other people's wealth and helping their own poor. They are different from the regular navy, which has the logistical support of the entire national force behind them, if you want to go to sea to make a living, you must be a generalist, and if you choose the profession of piracy, you can't expect to be rescued by others when you are in trouble. Therefore, a skill that is essential for sailors such as ship repair is something that almost everyone has to learn, and the difference is only in the level of individual skill. Generally speaking, if you can repair a battleship that has been damaged by a storm under the guidance of a professional carpenter, the repair ability is basically passable.

Previously, the battleship Yangwei was tossed badly in the battle of "Dragon Canyon", but fortunately, the main structure such as the keel was not damaged, and the broken foremast was not a big problem after being repaired and reinforced.

The hammering and hammering of the repairs seemed to be paying off, at least from the outside, and the Mighty set out on its journey again, this time to Torres Island. Perhaps in response to the old adage of Pole Tailai, the pirates were able to catch a convoy of merchant ships as they approached the vicinity of Torres Island.

In the special period when the goblin pursuit fleet was rampant, few of the daring guys were good, and the blocked group of merchants who wanted money and didn't want to die were smugglers who trafficked dairy products from the open sea to several small countries near the main big 6, so the loot that Luo Zhengdao's fleet grabbed was full of special goods such as three ships of milk powder and cheese. Except for some dairy products that were moved to the Yangwei to improve the food of the sailors, these goods could only be prepared to be cashed out on Torres Island, which could provide a little help to Luo Zhengdao's recent shrinking wallet.

"I'm really sorry, the local exchange has closed and we are temporarily closed here."

The pirates rudely smashed open the door, and the exchange boss, who was crying and trying to explain to the pirates that he had a last resort, had a bit of the grassroots temperament of a migrant worker. His goatee trembled as the boatswain grabbed the hem of his coat, and he trembled as he spoke.

Even so, Zola Hegel did not show the slightest sympathy at this time, but continued to question him with great vigour:

"Hey, what do you mean you don't do business anymore?"

Hearing the boatswain's stern question, the unfaced owner of the exchange trembled and said:

"The goblin fleet warns us that whoever trades with merchants from the open seas will kill all the people on the island, no matter what race, and not a single living thing will be left."

Torres Island is located on the edge of the regular patrol of the sea area by the goblin fleet, and an enclave like this, which is barely within its reach and difficult to completely control, is obviously unpleasant to the goblins.

Due to the military actions taken by the goblin fleet against these overseas colonies in the early stage, the Second Goblin Empire, the Yaling Empire and the Elven Federation have a trend of diplomatic tension and increased armed friction, and they don't want to make too many enemies for the time being, and the goblins have no intention of further adding fuel to the fire at the moment. The Yaling fleet has fought with the goblin fleet many times in the direction of the inland sea, and the calculation of the result is that everyone wins and loses each other, but the goblins obviously suffer more, and the Yaling side only uses a small part of the strength, but the goblins have used all their strength to eat.

The Elven Federation had already expressed its dissatisfaction with the colony occupied by the goblins, and the harshly worded diplomatic notes were stacked, and the goblins who did not want to provoke two powerful enemies at the same time had to resort to intimidation instead of a more simple and crude way of force to solve the problem.

Luo Zhengdao, who had been silent next to him, couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this, and Faure Chopin and Brando Scarlet simply scolded and said:

"These damn greenskins! Bastards with mud at the bottom of the pond, toad skin with rotten sores! ”

The owner of the exchange did not have the courage to take over the business of selling the pirates, and the value of the dairy products was not worth the special trip to a pirate supply port or a pirate bazaar, Zola Hegel said gloomily:

"So what are we going to do? Do we want us to go out and sell dairy products for those smugglers? That's the laughing stock of my peers. ”

Hearing this, he couldn't think of any good way, so Luo Zhengdao had to stand up and comfort everyone, cheering up and saying:

"Don't worry, we'll find a way out."

The three ships of dairy products seized the day before yesterday were blocked, which was not news to the pirates, and it is said that there was an unlucky senior who had worked hard to grab a whole shipload of straw paper, and he had been unable to sell it for three years, and finally he simply set fire to it in a fit of rage, because he was ridiculed for another thirty years, until long after the pirate captain washed his hands, this incident was often mentioned by the pirates as a joke. In contrast, Luo Zhengdao and his subordinates are already quite lucky, even if they can't sell these loot, it's a big deal to keep them and eat them slowly, anyway, the storage period of cheese is very long, and it is estimated that they can't eat it for three years.

"Ahh You say Yasha is gone? You sue me, how can a person suddenly disappear from a ship? Didn't I tell you to keep a close eye on her movements? ”

The house leak happened to rain overnight! When Luo Zhengdao and his entourage returned to the dock in high spirits, he immediately received another piece of bad news, and after a short period of indifference, Luo Zhengdao roared angrily. It's not because his subordinates failed to look at the unknown woman, Yasha, but because his plan to dig out the main messenger behind the scenes has failed.

Having said that, the sailor in charge of the rotation was also very aggrieved, and he tried his best to defend himself, saying:

"Lord Earl, I have inquired about all the people on duty, and no one has seen the woman since she docked at the port this morning, and she must have fled early in the morning."

In the bloody battle in the New World, the intuition, sharpened by the killing and the crisis, tells SΓΉ Luo that the disappearance of Yasha is not as simple as it seems, and that the mysterious missing woman is not only very suspicious, but her sudden disappearance is likely to be a precursor to a larger conspiracy.

After Luo Zhengdao calmed down, he thought of the nervousness that he should comfort his subordinates, so he pretended to wave his hand lightly and said:

"Then forget it, maybe she wants to leave herself, and she doesn't have time to say goodbye to us!"

Serious things always have to be done, the damage of the Yangwei needs to be thoroughly examined, and Luo Zhengdao doesn't like to make do with it. Although the shipyard on Torres Island did not have the capacity to build ships, the level of maintenance was reasonable, and the boatswain Zora, who was in charge of overseeing the repairs, soon returned to the docks, and as soon as he saw Luo Zhengdao, he said with merit:

"Your Excellency, we have replaced the mast with a new one, and all other minor problems have been repaired, do we need to go out for a trial sail or two?"

Luo Zhengdao was disturbed by Yasha's mysterious disappearance, and he had no intention of staying here for a long time, and he shook his head and said:

"No need, let's get out right away. Don't linger too long in the Sea of Light, those greenskins and bounty hunters have noses as sharp as hounds, ready to catch up. ”

Zola Hegel did not understand this, and with a bright smile and two rows of white teeth, he said:

"Alright, I'll go gather my men and prepare to set sail."
