In the cabin of the Jackdaw, Mu Yan happened to open a copy of the "Uncharted Sea Illustrated".

The author of the illustrated book is named Knight Drake, a royal knight of Turing. The Drake family is famous, starting with Knight's ancestor, Francis Drake, who has been responsible for almost all of Turing's expeditions and compilation, and has also served as the director of the Royal Marine Library for generations.

In other words, each generation of the Drake family is the most knowledgeable person in the entire Turing Empire, and at the same time the most knowledgeable person in the Endless Sea.

And this book was completed 17 years ago, condensed the sweat and wisdom of countless people, the treasure of the town hall, on a detailed introduction to the seven seas and the sea clan, this kind of treasure is naturally impossible to borrow easily, even Mu Yan can not - whether it is a legendary scholar in the game, or a legendary mage today.

So he flipped it very carefully, for fear of breaking it, after all, he had to "return" it untouched after reading it.

On page 15 of the illustrated book, a tiger shark is outlined with a thin black line. Unlike ordinary sharks, this fish has a skeleton on its back, which is decorated with shells and coral, forming an ornate saddle that is more than a meter high.

This is clearly the head mount.

Next to the mount was a three-meter-tall fish-man knight: blue and purple skin, with fine, ornate scales, like armor. Its face protruded outward, its mouth grinning down to the base of its ears, its teeth were thin and dense, a pair of inverted triangular fins like sails where they should have been, and a shark-like dorsal fin sprouted from the top of its head, spreading backwards along its vertebrae to its tail.

The whole has sharp teeth and sharp teeth, and the fierce look is vicious, even if this is a picture book, the fierce light in his eyes is not disguised.

In terms of ethnic division, the sea tribe is governed by naga, sirens and various seafood people, and although the composition is complex, its social structure is not complicated at all. Adhering to the principle of theocracy, divided from the position of power, at the top of the pyramid of the Sea Clan is naturally Calypso, the goddess of the sea, followed by her chief priests and personal servants, and on an equal footing are the rulers of the seven seas, that is, the princes of each sea, and then similar to human society, they are nobles, commoners, and so on.

The Tiger Shark Knight, on the other hand, is a nobleman in the sea, whose status is comparable to that of a knight in the human kingdom who has the right to land and levy. At the same time, the tiger shark is also a noble blood among sharks, they are natural riders, and their mounts are also their own blood relatives - that is, deformed brothers and sisters, and even parents.

(Digression: Who exactly is a 'deformity' has always been a topic of debate among philosophers of the Sea Tribe...... ）

Because they are blood relatives, the knight and the mount are bloody, almost human and horseman, and the fastest speed can reach 120 knots per hour, and the comprehensive strength of the adult shark rider can be comparable to Turing's 'Golden Knight' (level 40-50).

It sounds very bluffing, but in fact, the two brothers together are only equal to a gilded swordsman, and they may not even be able to beat Rorschach when they are taken apart, and Captain Rorschach advanced to level 40 a few months ago, and it should be stronger now......

But after thinking about it, this kind of role in the Sea Clan is equivalent to the ubiquitous baron and viscount in the Muma Plain, and the number is even ten times and a hundred times that of these two, and the situation suddenly becomes terrifying.

After turning a few pages, Mu Yan seemed to suddenly notice something, put away the illustrated book, got up and disappeared into the cabin.

……

Forty nautical miles from the Jackdaw, a group of Shark Cavalry Guards had just passed.

The standard 12 horsemen are arranged in the shape of a four-edged arrow, each tiger shark is more than 10 meters long, and the head is nearly 15 meters long, the black and white lines on the head of the fish look like the striped fur of the tiger, and because the forehead is between the horns and fins protrusions to form a "king" character, so it is named "tiger shark".

Of course, this is the naming of the Turing people.

The Sea Tribes call this ferocious sea beast "Para-Jasush", which means "unstoppable".

The leader of the team was named Pajesh, a variant of Para-Jasush, which showed the high expectations of his father.

The team chased the strong smell of blood, that is, chased the Jackdaw, but as they passed through this sea, the alarm was in vain.

"Punote [stop]."

Pajesh raised his right trident, and the twelve horsemen forbade it, and the brushes stopped, and none of them crossed the position, and the whole team seemed to be monolithic.

Just now, Pajesh felt like he had passed through a curtain of water that seemed to be there, a feeling that was particularly abrupt in the high-speed movement, and he suspected that he had triggered a trap left by someone.

The others seemed surprised as to why the captain had stopped, until a glowing figure suddenly appeared in front of them.

The other party's body was shrouded in a hazy shimmer, and it seemed like a mixture of blisters and cyclones, and in short, he couldn't see his face at all. Although the body is thin and thin, it exudes a mysterious aura that looks extremely dazzling in the dark water.

The cavalrymen all tightened their grips on their weapons, and the tension was transmitted to the mounts under their crotch, and the tiger shark suddenly tensed up.

"Con-Calma. [Calm down]"

Pajesh gave the order.

Unlike these men, he vaguely recognized that it was not the enemy in front of him.

The mist and light that lingered on the other party's body were familiar...... This is a spell that only those high-level tide hunter priests can do in the Temple of Tides, and it is the "ascender" that can only be mastered by the best of them.

And to be able to appear so suddenly, if the other party is hostile, his party will be seriously injured by now.

After a moment's thought, Pajesh immediately turned over and saluted respectfully.

"The wisdom of the sea god shines on the seven seas, and she guides us, just as you guide me. Good day, Lord Ascendant. ”

Mu Yan returned the salute slightly, and then asked:

"Para-Jasush riders, what are you chasing?"

His voice was hoarse under disguise.

"A ship, my lord. According to our tip, the ship may invade the Nanami, and now that it is heading towards the border, I must get on board to inspect and warn the group of humans. ”

"I'm not interested in weak human ships, and Chacia's garrison isn't a poor clownfish." Mu Yan's voice suddenly raised, "Rider, answer me seriously, why did you appear in this 'ranch'?" ”

Pajesh's body shook, and he suddenly remembered some rumors......

It is said that the sea near the land is different from the environment in which they live, and the water quality is more complicated, so it is occupied by many tide hunters who are keen on alchemy experiments, and it is used as a farm and ranch...... Although the ocean is rich in products and vast resources, it can't stand the large population in the sea, so the stronger the person's sense of territory, is it possible that he occasionally comes out to take on a private job and crashes into someone else's "private ranch"?

"Answer me, rider!"

The other party suddenly roared, and the visible ice ballast instantly blocked Pajesh's surroundings, and the cold touch irritated his sensitive skin, and the shark rider couldn't help but shiver.

"Yes, I'm sorry for my lordship......" Pajesh quickly apologized: "I didn't know that this was your private territory, please forgive me......"

"Hmph."

With a soft snort, the ice around Pajesh shattered and melted into the sea in the blink of an eye, and Pajesh's ability to manipulate the current made Pajesh breathtaking.

"Depart, rider, for the sake of the goddess."

After saying that, he quietly watched the group of riders, and the invisible pressure fell.

However, Pajesh did not leave immediately, but hesitated for a few seconds under pressure.

"My lord, can you ...... Can you be accommodating and let me catch up with that human ship for inspection? After all, it has passed through the territory of the adults, and if it is really carrying human scouts, it will also damage your reputation if it is known...... And my lord, your time is more precious than anyone else, and it may not be appropriate for you to deign to do these things, can you give you this honor and serve you? ”

When Pajesh said this, Mu Yan couldn't help but think highly of him, not only did he analyze the benefits and disadvantages very well, but also invisibly tied the two of them to a rope.

When it came to this, it was not suitable to refuse any longer, so Mu Yan simply changed his tone.

"There are too many of you, it's noisy to me, rider."

"That'...... Then I'll go alone, is that okay? ”

Mu Yan thought for a moment, nodded and agreed.

"Thank you for your forbearance, your wisdom shines through the seven seas!"

Pajesh secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Do I know your name?"

"You're not qualified yet, rider."

Mu Yan snorted, and the light on his body slowly faded, and finally dissolved in the water and disappeared without a trace.

The depths of the sea returned to darkness and dead silence, and Pajesh felt the stress disappear, but he still had palpitations.

He was stunned for a while, and hurriedly turned around to arrange a few words to his subordinates, and the remaining eleven horses were disbanded on the spot, leaving him alone to set off again and chase after the Jackdaw.
