Chapter 276: Pretending to be X is cool for a while.........
The process of buying the island went smoothly.
There was no time when Fang Zheng took out the money and was blocked by the rich second generation, saying that this is what I liked first, and then I took the initiative to provoke and find death, which is normal, almost all of what Fang Zheng wants is a waste island, which rich second generation will buy this kind of island, presumably it must be lame.
But to Fang Zheng's surprise, although these islands are dead islands, their prices are not low, and it seems that the people of the Overworld also know the economic value of exclusive areas. So these islands have spent almost all of the income that Founder currently gets through fertilizers and greenhouses, and now I finally understand why this counter is basically unattended, these dead islands are not only expensive, but also the location is not very good, and it is not possible to live in people. Even if a cultist wants to set up a stall on it to summon his master, I'm afraid he won't even be able to set up a summoning array, and whoever will buy such a thing must be mentally abnormal.
Well......... Founder doesn't count.
When signing the purchase agreement, Fang Zheng's expected exposure of his identity did not happen, perhaps because the old man was dizzy, or maybe the temple did not publicize this matter, so Fang Zheng obtained the ownership of the five small islands through the star pattern quite smoothly.
But for Founder, troublesome things are still to come.
Clear skies and cloudless skies.
Fang Zheng stood on the deck, staring at the endless sea in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh. It's really a hassle for him along the way.
The area where the five islands are located is known as the "Misty Seas", where it is rumored to produce a thick fog that causes ships to lose their way inside. Many experienced explorers and fleets disappeared in the mist, and according to those who escaped, hidden in the mist, was a terrifying monster larger than a hill. It can even swallow a battleship in one bite!
It was precisely because of such rumors that Fang Zheng searched all over the docks, and could not find the captain willing to take them out to sea to the misty sea. Until the unbelieving Fang Zheng increased the reward to three times, and finally there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, under the temptation of heavy money, finally someone was willing to accept the commission of Xia Zheng and take them to the misty sea.
It's really cool to pretend to be temporary, and the purse crematorium.
Merely......... The ship was so worn-out.
Fang Zheng turned his head and looked at the shabby, but still intact deck of the "Black Crow" in front of him. The sailors are shouting the trumpet, raising the sails to guide the development of civilization, the ships of the Overworld are no longer just dependent on the wind, and they can also use the magic engine to drive the ship like the modern world where Fang Zheng is located.
It's just that this ship is too old, so the magic engine that drives it is not a good product, but for such a ship, it is enough.
"Hell, you damn lazy creatures, hurry up and raise the sails for me!"
Captain Fawkes swayed onto the deck with his pipe in his mouth and his overcoat, a man who had worked hard at sea for many years, as evidenced by his sturdy figure and sun-tanned red skin. Fawkes reached out and touched his beard big enough to make a bird's nest, and then looked at Fang Zheng and showed a flattering smile.
"Oh, hello, dear sir."
"Hello, Captain Fawkes."
Looking at the captain in front of him, Fang Zheng looked very calm, Fawkes's reputation on the dock was not very good, but it was not very bad. But Fang Zheng doesn't care, when sailing on the sea, few people are clean. As long as they don't have any bad intentions for themselves and others, at least so far, this captain is still very responsible.
"How long do we have to get to the Misty Seas?"
"The weather has been nice for the last few days, and the sea blesses, and I think we might have arrived in the Misty Sea earlier than we had booked."
Hearing Fangzheng's inquiry, Captain Fawkes first tapped the pipe in his hand, and then replied with a smile on his face.
"Honestly, sir, it's a great day you chose, it's been a time of trade lately, and it's been a good time for us to be gone with those damn pirates."
"That means there won't be any trouble on the way?"
"That's not good."
In the face of Fangzheng's inquiry, Fox showed a wry smile.
"Because it's a gap period, who knows what those pirates will do, sir, you have a big reward at the docks, and you must have been seen by those pirate spies for a long time. Although most of the pirates will not go to sea during this time, the slave traders will not let go of this good time, and now is a good time for them to transport and buy slaves, and if they think we are a big fish, they may also attack us. ”
"I see, don't worry too much."
Fang Zheng nodded lightly at Fawkes's reminder, he naturally wouldn't worry about those pirates, there were no weak people on his side except for Nanali and Kulia. Fangzheng, Tiria, and Nimfu are already grandmaster-level existences by the standards of this world, and Black Katy is a powerhouse in the legendary realm. Not to mention that Fang Zheng was still a prophetic mage, if there were really pirates who wanted to sneak attack them without knowing whether they were alive or dead, then Fang Zheng naturally couldn't be ignorant of this.
"Since you are sure enough, sir, then I naturally have nothing to say."
Hearing Fang Zheng's disapproving answer, Fox also smiled and didn't say anything more. When he got on the ship, Fang Zheng had already cast a few spells, which also made Fawkes know that his customer was not only a noble child, but also a powerful mage. A spellcaster is a character that no matter what the forces are willing to provoke, Fawkes is no exception. If the captain had any careful thoughts before, now he has put away those thoughts that he shouldn't have and concentrated on doing his job.
"Master."
At this moment, Nimfu suddenly walked out of the cabin, and she came to Fang Zheng, nodded respectfully to him, and then glanced at Fawkes not far away.
"There are three ships ahead, approaching us."
"Oh?"
Hearing Nimfu's report, Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, but of course he would not have any doubts about the detection of the little angel.
"How long will you be in contact with us?"
"At the current pace, it will be ten minutes at the earliest."
"Is it a pirate ship?"
Hearing this, Fawkes next to him also hurriedly asked, of course he knew that this blue-haired girl had some peculiar skills, a few days before the voyage, Nimfu had reminded Fawkes and Fang Zheng of the reef and the pirate ship several times, and she was proved right afterwards. This also made Fawkes have a little more respect for this delicate and slender little girl, you must know that what people who run boats at sea are most afraid of all kinds of sudden accidents, and having a little angel here can at least allow them to avoid a lot of unnecessary casualties and attrition.
"There are two pirate ships, and a pleasure boat."
"You mean, there are two pirate ships chasing a pleasure ship?"
Hearing this, Fawkes suddenly showed a bitter melon face, this is simply the last thing to see when sailing on the sea, those ships that are being chased by pirate ships will certainly not be restrained, if they can really beat each other, then there is no need to run away. But now it seems that the pleasure ship is obviously not very combative, or the two pirate ships are so strong that they can only escape.
Of course, at other times, Fox will sigh a few words at most, but now it's different, this is the rhythm of pulling the monster over to destroy the group after add!
"Can you get out of the way?"
"It's too late."
Fawkes sighed helplessly at Fang's inquiry, and then he put his pipe back in his pocket and picked up his weapon. Sailing on the seas can be a very dangerous thing, and even the most experienced captains will not allow their ships to deviate from their course at will, as this may cause them to lose course. So even if he knew that there was trouble ahead, he couldn't open it.
"Get ready to fight! Lads! ”
