Chapter 59: An Luya [Seeking Collection]
With the previous replenishment on the island, Dawn and the others sailed to sea again very smoothly, and even saved two meals at noon and evening after going to the island.
Because there were too many fruits on the island, and the people on the boat had not eaten any fruit recently, everyone picked them back and stored them while eating fruits to fill their stomachs, but saved two meals.
Perhaps because of the flow of time, on the fifth day after going out to sea again, I came across an island with a human city.
But there is no king on this island, and it is said that this is a country conquered by the Vince Mock family, and the king's head was decapitated as a capital for the Vince Mock family to show off.
Inevitably, the country was seized and divided by various ministers and nobles, and even some violators.
Hearing this, Dawn couldn't help but think of a painting hanging in the palace when Sanji's father appeared in the anime in his previous life.
It was a man on a horse, with several heads with crowns under the horse's hooves, which made Daun's expression a little strange.
After all, the former owner of this country is likely to be a certain head in that painting.
This also shows how frequent wars are in the North Sea, and it is no wonder that the people of the kingdom of Ishtar, the country of Daun, are not willing to join the navy, but mostly participate in the king's army belonging to the royal family.
After all, after becoming a navy, the main target of attack is pirates, and although the kingdom of Ishtar will also be invaded by pirates, it is much less affected than the war between countries.
The navy is nominally a public organization belonging to the world government, and its main purpose is to fight pirates, etc., and it is not allowed to participate in a country's war.
So it's normal that the navy won't be strengthened in the kingdom of Ishtar, after all, who doesn't want to protect their homeland?
How can it be accepted that you can't participate in resisting invaders from other countries when you wear a naval uniform?
Watching his father and fellow villagers being bullied, he has to abide by the military order and stand aside to watch the play?
Bye-bye!
However, because of the connection between the interests of Ishtar and the navy, and Gaius's closeness to the navy, the navy came up with this method of putting on a vest.
And it's not without benefits, at least the conscription and food are mostly taken care of by the Ishtar Kingdom.
There is no problem with the surrounding countries, because everyone is in a similar situation, belonging to the member countries, but because of the war, they refused to allow their young people to join the navy, resulting in a loss of troops.
So over time, everyone got used to it, as long as they didn't pull the navy's foreign aid, basically no one cared, and the navy also had a branch stationed in the North Sea that could serve as a foothold in the North Sea and provide manpower and material resources.
This is a win-win situation for both parties.
However, the country that Dawn and the others arrived in front of them did not have a naval branch stationed here, because there was no king or country here, and there were just cities and endless wars.
The Vince Mock family is worthy of being a big family that was once able to rule the North Sea for a short time, and everywhere seems to have its shadow in it.
If there is something bad that can't find the reason, it must be the pot of the Vince Mock family!
But if you really want to talk about it, the pot of this country really has to be borne by the Vince Mock family, such as acting as a mercenary and getting involved in wars between countries around the world.
Even if you think about it, those countries where war broke out, maybe there were the Vince Mock family who started the war behind their backs.
Then stand up as a mercenary to accept the mercenary, and after intervening in the war, the Vince Mock family can get the funds paid by the hiring country, and can also receive the resources of the defeated country.
These are all needed by the Vince Mock family, after all, the king and the country are mainly based on scientific research, so naturally they need experimental funds and experimental resources to support this.
Of course, this was too far away for Dawn, and he still needed to take care of the Vince Mock family now, but he believed that when he grew up, if such a family dared to come, it would only end up being captured as a coolie researcher.
But that's for later, with his current strength, it used to be food delivery.
The kind of scum that doesn't have any scum left.
After arriving on the island, Ark sent people to guard the warship, and then randomly selected some people to help buy supplies.
As for Dawn and the others, of course, they have increased their knowledge with Major General Ark.
Although the city is chaotic, there are not many who dare to blatantly attack the navy, otherwise it will give the navy a reason to intervene, which is not what those in power want to see.
The name of the city where Dawn and the others arrived was Anlua.
Although there is no leader in the group, the city is in a state of confrontation and independence.
However, this is a relatively harsh part of the island, because in addition to the sea, the city sprawls into the center of the island, accounting for a quarter of the area and is all desert.
Along the way, the only greenery that could be seen in the Desert Boat was the tenacious growth of vigorous plants such as cacti.
And now that Dawn and the others have arrived at Anlua's oasis, they can finally see trees full of greenery.
Daun and the others went to Anlua from the seaside, and with everyone's physique, they didn't waste much energy, but they also avoided the bitter experience of rushing in the desert.
Of course, this is also because the entire desert road is not too far, if it is in Alabastan, then Dawn and the others will be offended.
I thought that Anluya's living environment was so cruel that the city's population and economy should be very backward, but I didn't expect it to be unexpectedly lively here.
When Dawn and the others came here, they saw a somewhat chaotic but lively market.
As if seeing everyone's doubts, Major General Ark smiled and explained:
"Anlua is not far from the edge of the island, so there are many ships that come and go here to replenish the goods on board, or bring some local specialties to other countries for sale."
"The huge flow of people has boosted the economy of this desert city, and it seems that this is a very distinctive city." Dawn instantly understood the character of the city.
Looking at the city in front of me, I became interested in taking a good look at it.
After all, one of the desires of coming to this world is not to see the scenery that you can't see in your previous life?
The sky island is located at an altitude of 10,000 meters, and the fish-man island is 10,000 meters deep under the sea.
These things could not have happened in previous lives. But in this world, it was created by magical nature or technology.
All of this fascinated Dawn deeply, and now he has begun to appreciate the different scenery of this world, how can he not make Dawn happy.
