Chapter 61: It's Hell!
Three days later, a warship docked in the bay harbor directly in front of the main fort.
It's a true war beast! It's not Karp's bewitching cargo!
On the deck, there are many forts, flags are spread high, and muskets are neatly resisted by the soldiers, and they shine in the sun!
This warship is here to pick up Ron...... wait for the ship to Hell Island.
Twice a year, once for three months, led by a vice admiral of the headquarters, they travel back and forth between Hell Island and the naval headquarters. It has been in service for more than 20 years, and the seaweed green algae and fangs claw prints can be faintly seen in the clean parts of the hull, full of mottled marks left by the years, and the red rust on the muzzle of the gun, the white but clean military flag, making a wind of iron and blood blowing in the face!
Ron, the man who handed over command of the warship to the flying squirrel in the harbor, is very familiar, it is one of the five vice admirals who participated in the Demon Slaying Order on Justice Island in the original book, and the elite of the Navy hawks who took advantage of Marko's distraction during the top war, Vice Admiral Ghost Spider!
Although he didn't care about the other people's concept of justice, Ron was also relieved to learn that the leader of his shipman was the usually gentle Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel.
It's all the same anyway, who likes to face a dead face boss all day long?
Look at those soldiers, they are almost more afraid of ghosts and spiders than sea thieves!
"Thank you, Lieutenant General Ghost Spider!"
The flying squirrel didn't care about the ghost's expression at all, and walked up to salute him solemnly.
"It is incumbent upon us to do so!"
The ghost spider returned the military salute and said: "The warship was attacked by the Sea Kings on the way back, and although the cabin has been repaired, it is still necessary to beware of water leakage." In addition, fresh water and supplies are still sufficient, and they can sail at any time. ”
There is an advantage of a hawkish officer, that is, what you say and what he does, there are no superfluous ideas. Unless there is force majeure or everyone is dead, they will do everything they can to complete the task beautifully, and they are not greedy for credit!
For example, the ghost spider returned to the sea, and a few simple words overshadowed the danger of being attacked by the sea kings, but judging from the large brand-new wooden planks on the side of the ship, the danger at that time must have been extraordinary!
It's a war behemoth, a movable bunker on the sea!
Even a large part of the hull has been torn off, and the Sea Kings are by no means good at stubble!
Seeing this, the flying squirrel saluted again: "Thanks for the reminder!" I'll pay attention! ”
"It's my duty!"
The ghost spider returned the same salute again, and then he bit his cigar and glanced at the navy rookies standing aside with different looks, paused for a moment with a face at the back of the crowd, and asked in a little surprise, "That little ghost over there...... I remember that he only joined the Navy for half a year, right? Why are you here? ”
The Huadu mission is a secret mission, so except for the core of Sengoku and other cores, no one knows that Ron has been training in the navy as a "civilian" all along. But even if you don't know, Ron has only been in the Navy for more than half a year, and if you want to go to Hell Island, less than a year of training is absolutely not allowed!
Unless......
"That little ghost is a little too strong! The marshal had to make an exception and tell him to get out of the way early......"
The flying squirrel knew who he was talking about, and in fact his first reaction when he got the list was like that. But if you think about it, what's not to do?
The navy strictly ordered that recruits who had been trained for less than a year could not go to Hell Island, just because they were worried that the recruits would not be able to train themselves and might die there early. In the end, it's still a matter of strength!
And this question is not a problem at all for Ron!
As long as his strength does not touch some monsters in the core area of Hell Island, he will be more than capable of protecting himself!
Not to mention that he's also a nature department!
Most monsters, even if they are stronger than him, have no means to restrain his elementalization.
Coupled with the self-healing ability that the high-level leaders knew, the absolute speed and explosiveness of the Thunder Fruit, and the shockingly powerful physique tempered to the top...... All these conditions are combined, and if they want to kill Ron, even they have to be serious.
Hearing this, the ghost spider also remembered the "2700" Dao power value that Ron typed out during the year-end evaluation...... That's a number that completely exceeds the minimum standard for surviving on Hell Island! So he nodded and sighed: "The guys in the natural department, aren't they all monsters?" ”
This will be the case with the current three, and the same will be true of Ron in the future......
"No, Ron is special ......"
The flying squirrel shook his head, no excuse.
As a veteran of the Navy Headquarters second only to the Karp War, he has witnessed how the three generals have become legends step by step, but compared to the current Ron, the flying squirrel still thinks that it is still lacking......
At least in terms of physical talent, you can throw the three major generals off the street!
Half a month to learn paper drawing, this interesting incident that happened on the Karp ship has made all those in the know regard Ron as a demon!
……
After a lengthy inspection, the warship was able to set sail.
Whining!!
With a piercing whistle, the war beast slowly moved away from the naval headquarters.
On the deck, there were a total of thirty-six recruits in the same period, including Ron, who were all elite recruits who met the minimum requirements.
At first, everyone was excited at the thought that they would be a qualified naval officer as long as they survived on Hell Island for more than three months. But when the ghost spider returned with the previous group, the excitement was gradually replaced by anxiety, fear, and uneasiness.
The reason is that of the last batch of twenty-one recruits who went to Hell Island, only seventeen of them came back alive!
The mortality rate is close to 20%!
And these seventeen people are also wounded, haggard and embarrassed, not even as good as beggars! And three people are disabled, five people are seriously injured, even if they are well recuperated, there is no "bright" future!
"Sir!"
Looking at the flying squirrel standing at the front of the deck with his sword drawn and looking at the naval headquarters, one of the recruits had the audacity to speak: "Hell Island...... What the hell is this place? ”
Until then, everyone has been ordered not to tell the recruits anything about Hell Island. So the Hell Island, which is regarded by the recruits as the last hurdle of the Qingyun shortcut, has nothing to be afraid of, no matter how hard and tiring it is, can it compare to the training of the recruit camp?
But when they really saw the tragic situation of the brothers and sisters who returned from Hell Island, this luck was gradually infected by fear, and a few timid people began to regret that they had signed the consent form.
Hearing the recruit's question, the flying squirrel came back to his senses and glanced at them.
"You know...... Of the 17 people who came back in the last batch, only 9 people finally passed? ”
Instead of answering a question, he asked a seemingly unrelated question.
The recruits shook their heads.
Due to the news blockade, even the wealthy families of the navy did not dare to leak the news to their children without authorization, but warned them again and again that Hell Island was very dangerous and told them to be prepared.
"This is the only help that the Ministry can give you......"
The flying squirrel's gaze was as cold as a knife, and it swept over a group of restless recruits: "If you think you can't survive, you can seek refuge in the warship station." ”
Instead of asking for support at the cost of failure, if you think you can't survive, you can go back to the warship and be protected by flying squirrels!
The meaning of this is not only the disparity in strength faced when you are in danger!
It also means that Hell Island is a purgatory on earth that is enough for their group of heavenly prides to bow their heads and bow their heads to be vassals!!
The recruits present were not stupid, and as soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions suddenly tightened.
Hell Island is terrifying!
Even Ron was no exception......
However, unlike the others who were scared, Ron thought that if it was so dangerous, how many sandbags he could find suitable for cultivation!!
As for danger, death?
So what?!
Becoming stronger is his only goal!
If he dies there, it means that he is just a man like that......
The flying squirrel's words didn't seem to have much relevance, but they actually answered the recruit's question in another way.
What exactly is Hell Island?
It's hell!!

When I returned to my hometown, I found that I had begun to have long sleeves and long pants and a jacket. On the other hand, the big tree, the T-shirt and shorts bought by Heilan House, plus a pair of flip-flops...... Did I remember the seasons wrong, or was it really that cold? I don't think the weather is going to be hot if you don't turn on the air conditioner???
