Chapter 64: Pirates

Theoretically speaking, adventurers are free from rangers, and when those rangers who have awakened their natural abilities suddenly find that the days of hunting monsters to earn money start to become boring, there will always be some people who are full of yearning for the unknown and embark on a journey to a distant place.

Therefore, in people's general perception, there is no difference between a ranger and an adventurer, and how to call oneself depends entirely on one's will.

According to Captain Pete, his Tiger Shark would be at sea for two months, and that one of those months would be spent in a stormy area between the two continents.

There are shallow reefs and whirlpools that appear and disappear without warning, and countless dangerous magical beasts hide beneath the gray waters, waiting for their prey to be delivered.

Once in that area, the speed of the ship will be reduced to an outrageous degree, and the captain will not only rely on his own experience to avoid collisions, but also try to avoid the territory occupied by the monsters.

And the changeable storm weather, and the oppression of the absence of excess sunlight, is even more unbearable than a compass failure.

Captains can only orient themselves by the markings on the charts and by visually surveying the iconic rocky mountains, which are the safe ways that countless captains and sailors have paid for their blood over the centuries.

Of course, now, if you are a captain who often does it, or specializes in this kind of business, you will naturally have one or two familiar and relatively safe lines in your hands.

As for why this is done, without it, gold coins are the greatest truth in heaven and earth.

Cassia stood alone on the deck blowing the sea breeze, and the sailors on the side were vigorously reeling in the fishing nets, and the harvest was very rich.

He suddenly regretted that he had designed the Storm Sea to look like that, because the environment was indeed harsh, and he still underestimated the curiosity of the unknown in people's hearts.

Da Da Da ......

There was a dull sound of footsteps, and the middle-aged man who had collected their gold coins on the day of departure came over, and he was the second mate of the ship.

"Yes, your knife is very special, I rarely see adventurers with knives. ”

"Thanks, haven't you seen it now?" Cassia took the ale handed over by the second mate, and raised his eyebrows.

The second mate seemed to know what he wanted to ask, so he took a sip of the ale in his hand and explained, "Hehe...... I'm not from Idoris, and although I like spicy fruit wines, I generally prefer outback ales. ”

"Listen to your accent, from the Southern Provinces?"

The second mate smiled: "Have you been there......?" That's right, you adventurers are afraid that you will have to run all over the interior, and you will lose your mind and want to go to the southern continent. ”

"To be precise, I'm a witcher. ”

"What's the difference? Hunting Warcraft, Ranger, Adventurer? There is no difference, they are all picking wild fruits on the way to death. ”

Cassia swallowed a sip of mellow ale and nodded: "How many times have you been there, or ...... How many times has Captain Pete done this?"

The second mate shook his head, as if he had answered the question: "It's the fifth day, you are the first adventurer I have ever seen who has not been seasick, unlike that Brandy, who is about to vomit out his brain, you are very powerful." ”

"But you know what? Nanlu is not our human territory at all, and those orcs won't reason with you at all, and I've seen a lot of people who have gone there, and very few have come back alive, and even fewer have come back with gold coins. ”

"You're still in charge of the return trip?"

"Whoever is so kind as to hide on the shore if he wants to come back, if he is lucky, if the god of the sea favors him, he may be able to wait for a ship like ours to do this kind of business. ”

Cassia was speechless and continued to drink the ale in his cup, and the atmosphere was a little dull for a while.

"You drink slowly, I'll see if I'll have good luck today and catch one or two big fish with the blood of Warcraft. After drinking the ale in the cup, the second mate patted the railing and turned to leave.

Cassia continued to blow the sea breeze and feel the unique taste of the sea, speaking of which, in the real world for so many years, he really hasn't traveled anywhere, and he hasn't seen the sea seriously.

It wasn't until a dark cloud came overhead and the air began to get stuffy that Cassia returned to the cabin, made himself a cup of tea, and stood by the window, quietly waiting for the storm to come.

The orcs are not like humans, although they have the same large population, but they are used to dividing their territory by ethnic groups, gathering and living.

Therefore, the undeveloped land in the southern continent is much larger than that in the northern continent, and the orcs moved south hundreds of years ago, although there are many orcs in this part near the north now, but if you compare, it can still be described as vast and sparsely populated.

"Maybe I can find a ravine to develop a new magician system, so that they can form a system, otherwise there will be a church leader on the divine art side, and the magicians will be scattered at that time......"

"For a while in the early days, the title of heretic was definitely given to magicians......

Knock knock knock...... There was a knock on the door, interrupting Cassia's thoughts.

"Enter. ”

"Vomit ......" came in response Brandi's face was pale, with one hand on the ground with a long sword, the other holding his stomach, and sat staggering beside Cassia.

"You came here on purpose to show me this?"

"Vomit...... Don't get Ira, I'm real...... Can't help it. ”

Cassia curled the corners of his mouth: "I'll teach you a way, you can shake your body and keep yourself in tune with the shaking of the boat." ”

"I ...... I'm not one of those tavern dancers. ”

"Good luck then......"

Before Cassia could finish speaking, a loud horn suddenly sounded on the deck, followed by the stampede that shook the deck.

"What's going on?" Brandi covered her mouth and looked outside.

Cassia crossed his legs, fumbled with the handle of the cup, raised his eyes and swept upwards, and said, "Just go out and see." ”

"Vomit...... Wait for me, Ira. ”

On the deck, the two walked to the bow of the ship one after the other, and the sailors beside them ran back and forth, standing on the side of the ship with swords in hand.

On the second deck, Captain Pete rubbed the hilt of his sword, his face calmly looked at a sea area in the east, his eyes as sharp as an eagle.

Behind him, the first mate and the second mate were constantly directing the sailors, each entering their assigned position.

That's right, although metal is used well in this era, there is no glass, so there are no telescopes, which Cassia has to admit is that he forgot ......

"It's a pirate...... Vomit. Brandi, who was on the side, squinted at the sea to the east with his long sword.

Cassia, whose ears were tormented, couldn't stand it anymore, and reached out and patted him on the back, and the faint light burrowed into Brandy's body like a bug, allowing him to slowly adapt to life on the sea.

Cassia then turned his head to see that to the east of their ship, three ships that were not smaller than them were heading towards them.

"It's the Gali Pirates!" the second mate walked over with a scimitar, "They usually take over the business of their employers, but they will also loot when they encounter lone ships, they are the ships of the Honoris Empire." ”

"They have just been out to sea for five days, and they will enter the stormy sea in about ten days, and they should have planned it for a long time when they came. ”

Cassia nodded and didn't speak, while Brandi rubbed his stomach, feeling a little better from seasickness, his eyes narrowed, and his hand holding the sword tightened a little.

"Did you beat it?" Cassia asked suddenly for no reason.

"If there's anything that can't be beaten, cut them when they come, these Honoris scraps, phew!"

The weather is getting more and more stuffy, and the whole sky has been covered by dark clouds, like a piece of cloth covering an ocean, maybe the next moment, the downpour will fall mercilessly.

In the captain's room of the flagship of the Gali Pirates, a middle-aged man who did not look like a human was sitting on a chair, playing with a metal sea beast ornament.

"Captain, that's old Pete's ship, we're ...... this time"

Bang! The second mate who spoke was smashed to the ground, and the metal sea beast ornament also rolled to the side, and a little blood stained the original copper yellow.

"Old Pete, more than ten years ago, the ships of the two countries met him here, and now he is just a dying sea beast, his ship is not as fast as ours, and he can't run away, so he is ordered to go down, and a gold coin for a man's head. ”

"Yes......" the second officer walked out, covering his bloody forehead.

And the first mate on the side walked to the front: "Captain, with the character of old Pete, it is impossible to carry all the savings of so many years with him, but about that adventurer, the bartender did not mention that he carried luggage, although he was generous, but it may not be that he was desperate to go to Nanlu to make a fortune." ”

The middle-aged man shook his head: "Do as I say, remember, old Pete is just the beginning, and in the future, as long as he encounters the ships of the Kaiadir Empire at sea, he will not leave any of them." ”

“...... Got it. ”

....................................

"Stay out of the bow!" shouted the first mate on the second deck.

The sailors responded immediately, conveying orders layer by layer, and the Tiger Shark slowly turned, and with a piercing squeezing sound, the bow of the flagship of the Gali Pirates slid close to the side of the Tiger Shark.

Immediately, the other two ships also rushed to the sides of the Tiger Shark at full speed, and surrounded it to death.

"Kill! a man's head, a gold coin!

With a loud roar from the other side, countless grappling hooks were thrown from the three boats onto the Tiger Shark, and the sailors' eyes seemed to glow red, like a pack of jackals surrounding an old evil tiger, with a sea scimitar in their mouths, and attacked the Tiger Shark.

"Bow and arrow ready!" shouted the second officer as he rushed out of the side of the ship with his sword, intending to stop the opponent directly on the rope with a white-knuckle battle.

"Warrior ......" Cassia helped Qiding take two steps back, shook his head, there was no gunpowder and artillery, even the naval battle was so simple and rude.
