Chapter 229: Sails

The druid's tone was low and steady, neither excited nor depressed: "The greenskins near Neverwinter are just descendants of these orcs twisted by the wrath of nature, but they are still a part of nature, they will grow rapidly where nature is out of balance, destroying those who destroy the natural ecology, but in places where nature is in a cycle of balance, they will go crazy and keep their numbers within the normal range......"

"This method was so effective in the first days that the pirates of Luskan suffered so much that they were forced to almost abandon the land, and all communication was carried out only at sea."

"But they held on, making the offensive effect of these greenskins worse and worse, but the reproduction of the greenskins is still overdrawing the power of nature, allowing the anger of nature to continue to accumulate...... The Father of Nature didn't want this to continue, he wanted to free the orcs, and he wanted Luskan to bear the wrath of nature, so I came. ”

"This land has been held up for too long...... Long enough that it was about to die and become a desert of life, the original plan was for me to go to the wilderness alone, awaken the altar of the Father of Nature, sacrifice myself to nature, awaken my sleeping power, release the wrath of nature, and let Luskan get the punishment he deserves. ”

"But now that I have you and the natural gem, I only need to place the gem on the altar, it will be enough to awaken nature, and the father of nature can also use this to send more power, and the curse on your body can be easily removed!"

The druid neither concealed nor tried to deceive, which was contrary to his norms and morals, so he said everything calmly, and looked at the three Morel with calm eyes: "Everyone, are you willing to help me?" ”

Morel looked at the druid's determined gaze, looked at the charred and desolate land in the distance, and remembered the intimate aura of life when he usually held the natural gem, which made him bow his head and ponder for a long time, and suddenly looked up and said, "We will help you." ”

He made a decision, Fanny and Sylvie naturally did not refuse, and the druid's face was full of joy: "Come with me, those twisted greenskins are rampant in the weeping land, if we go straight to them, we will only be surrounded by them, and only by obtaining pirate ships from Luskan can we bypass the greenskin-infested area and go to the altar of the isolated father of nature." ”

……

Just when the two sons of the plot teamed up to make trouble in Luskan, Shepard took his Drow maid and chose the easier way to go north.

"My most distinguished guest, it is a great pleasure and honor to welcome you aboard my Eagle of Hope!" Dressed in a shabby captain's uniform, with a treacherous and exaggerated smile on his old face, he looked like he was welcoming the passengers on the ship warmly.

"This person's acting skills are so fake that they are not even one percent of Zhuoer's." Eleanor whispered sarcastically in Shepard's ear.

Shepard didn't hear it, but just looked at the captain of the smuggling ship in front of him and said lightly: "Captain Maas, I'll trouble you for the next journey." ”

The treacherous captain of the smuggling ship looked at Shepard with a bland expression, as if he was looking at a sleeping dragon, he couldn't help but shiver, and said with a sneer: "Yes, dear guests, please rest assured, my [Eagle of Hope] is the eagle soaring in the Bay of Swords, which will definitely bring you to Luskan quickly and steadily." ”

"Very well, I'll settle the remaining half of the payment with you then." Shepard nodded, and led Eleanor to the cabin.

Entering the cabin, Drow finally couldn't hold back his curiosity and whispered, "Master, what are you going to Luskan for?" ”

"Look at the view," Shepard chuckled.

The female Drow looked stunned, but heard Shepard continue, "By the way, take over Luscan's inheritance." ”

"Luscan's legacy? What are you talking about, master? Eleanor's curiosity was almost written on her face, but Shepard just smiled and shook his head: "I can't tell, you'll know when the time comes." ”

Eleanor sighed helplessly, Shepard looked at his maid, the golden flames danced in Drow's eyes, which was a sign that he had forcibly touched and even transformed his soul with his divine power, and the power of light was constantly correcting their souls, and the souls that were twisted into darkness were turned back into light, which also led to the constant change of the personalities of the two Drows.

Shepard was thoughtful, and the female Drow didn't dare to disturb him anymore when he saw this, and Shepard, who was in a state of silence, suddenly came back to his senses, shook his head and walked back to the room.

The smuggling ship continued to move forward in the sound of the waves crashing against the wall of the ship, but fortunately, this area near Luskan belonged to the world of pirates, and everyone tacitly agreed not to attack easily, so that there was no risk of accidents on this part of the journey.

However, the journey at sea will not be smooth sailing, sudden storms can roll up huge waves, and there is no difference between a boat swaying and a sampan in the heavy rain.

"Lower the sails! Lay down the sails, you idiots! Do you want to go to the sea to feed the fish?! Captain Maas shouted at his crew to keep them from messing around in the storm.

"Captain! The wind is too strong to go up! "It was a small man who was in charge of lowering the sails, and his usually nimble figure was now a desperate disadvantage, and he felt his legs go limpy as he looked at the ropes on the high mast dancing wildly in the wind.

"If you can't go up, you have to go up! If you don't get up, I'll hack you now! Captain Maas shouted angrily, he didn't know that the wind was strong, but at this moment the storm and the waves were hitting together, and a second later lowering the sails would increase the possibility of the ship being destroyed and killed.

Shepard and Eleanor, who rushed up from the cabin, happened to see this scene, he turned his head to look at the female Drow, Eleanor nodded clearly, and suddenly said loudly: "How can I put the sail down?!" ”

Captain Maas turned his head to look at the two of them, then turned to the little man and said, "You can answer!" ”

The little man sneered, and the pouring rain made the rain rush out of the ravines on his face, and wiped the rain from his face, he pointed upwards and said, "There! The rope in the middle of the mast! Now there is no way to untie the dead knot, only to cut the rope! As long as the sails are down! ”

Eleanor looked up at the mast, which was more than ten meters high, estimated the distance, and snorted coldly: "Wait! ”

She rushed to a falling cable, grabbed it and tried it, then leaped into the air with a light posture, and stepped on the mast and the mid-air grid with the help of the rope volley, every step was extremely precise, like a butterfly fluttering in a storm, seemingly small and irresistible, but flying higher and higher.

No matter how nimble an ordinary human sailor is, it takes a lot of time to climb to the height, and the visibility in the storm is very poor, but fortunately, Drow's dim vision helps at this moment, and he pulls out the pure gold dagger he carries with him with a sonorous sound, even the dim sky can't hide the eye-catching cold light.
