The sea breeze howled, and the waves blew fine foam, shimmering in the sunlight, like a fine pearl, but before it could wait three or five seconds, it broke into water foam and dissipated. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

A dhow ran over the waves, the bottom of the shuttle-shaped ship easily broke through the water, and with the help of the high bulging sails, it quickly sailed towards the deep sea.

This is Levi's dhow, heading to the direction of the eastern seas, and has now entered the deep sea, and the thin warships are shaking slightly violently with the waves, obviously unable to adapt to the strong winds and waves in the open ocean.

In this regard, Levi has also been aware.

Looking down at the dhow under his feet, Levi still couldn't help but sigh, offshore or complex sea areas, the sea surface with light wind and waves is an excellent warship.

However, in the open sea, the dhow will be quite weak in the face of wind and waves.

The sailors on the ship are also carefully controlling the speed of the ship, carefully adjusting the sails, trying to absorb as much wind as possible, and using the best windward side to obtain the most convenient speed.

"Your Majesty."

The captain of the dhow also walked quickly, and his face was more relaxed, and reported to Levi: "The weather around is not bad, the wind speed is good, and no thunderclouds have been found. ”

The most important thing in ocean sailing is not only to sail with the wind, but also to pay attention to whether you will enter the stormy sea.

Unlike land, where you can only wait for a storm to come, in this vast sea, the endless sea surface is filled with an infinite amount of seawater, and when you find a storm in the distance, you can avoid it early.

Storms don't spread very quickly, and they can't be very widespread.

Therefore, by changing the direction of the voyage, you can avoid the suffering of turbulence in the stormy waves.

Experienced captains pay attention to the surrounding sea conditions to ensure that the ship under their feet does not sink, and that they do not fall into the miserable sea without relying on the loss of their ship.

It was a tragic result, and even in the Age of Discovery, the captains used this method against sailors who dared to start a rebellion.

Of course, in the spirit of humanitarianism, they will also be given a pistol, with only one bullet.

And this so-called mercy is actually a kind of cruelty, in the vast sea, or on an unknown island, there is no food and fresh water, only oneself alone, and a pistol.

Even if a ship appears, it will not be able to detect it because of the distance, or it will not dare to stop for fear of a pirate's trick, but will speed up the voyage, not caring about this matter that has nothing to do with it.

At this time, there is almost no way to do anything other than suicide.

Both Levi and the captain are quite aware of this, and those conscientious sailors don't want to fall into this situation at all, so they are quite serious.

Cowhide boots stepped on the side of the ship, Levi looked at the sea in front of him from the bow of the ship, but his brows couldn't help frowning, and he slowly asked, "If there is no miscalculation, we have been sailing for nearly two hours?" ”

"Yes, two hours."

The captain also took out his pocket watch in his pocket, and after looking at the time on it, his face was not so ugly, he just nodded lightly and replied: "If the new route exists, I'm afraid it will be far away from us." ”

Shaking his head, Li Wei also exhaled, and said helplessly: "This is really tangled." ”

"Your Majesty, that's how life is on the sea."

In this regard, the captain of the older grade looked very open, smiled, swept his eyes over the sea in front of him, and shrugged his shoulders and said: "Boring, boring, no freshness." ”

There was a slight pause in his tone, and the captain of the dhow also shrugged his shoulders lightly with a certain melancholy: "We have nothing on the sea except the ship under our feet. ”

"Those poets should come and see for themselves."

The corners of his mouth also curled into a smile, and Levi exhaled a long breath and said, "The description in the book, this sea is really beautiful, and it seems to be described with all good words. ”

"That's because they haven't seen the sea angry, and they probably pee their pants in fright."

The captain was also funny, standing half a step behind Levi, his eyes looking at the sea in the distance, as if he was looking for something, but even he knew that it was doomed to be in vain.

Because there was nothing to see but the horizon, not even islands, or black reefs.

They have come to the deep sea, completely far away from the offshore waters of Dayinpan Island, and even the original birds in the sky are much less, only a few seagulls are still traveling with the ship.

Poems often describe that the so-called captains and sailors, and even the pirates, have a freedom that is difficult for ordinary people to obtain, but in fact, a life at sea is a ship with a group of prisoners who will die in the sea at some point, looking for a shore where they can rest.

Literary and artistic processing is usually of a fantastical nature, and at least some poets or writers of literature do not go to an ocean-going merchant ship and only see land after several months of dangerous voyages.

So, how embarrassing it is, they don't really experience the life of a sailor.

People who have not become sailors will never know the loneliness of being a sailor.

This is the main reason why, after the sailors docked, the taverns and inns on the docks, and the women who were obviously ugly but still popular, were quite popular.

And there is not one.

Now that he had sailed for nearly two hours, in the vast sea, Levi already felt that he could not be as comfortable as an offshore voyage, and that there was hope.

Offshore sailing can be carried along the coastline anytime, anywhere.

The land around us can often bring peace to people's hearts, because anyone can understand in their hearts that the land in the distance is the cornerstone of their stability.

"However, it also proves one thing."

Touching his smooth chin, the dhow under Levi's feet was rising on a wave, and then he cut through the spray and pressed it down again, but there was a flurry of ups and downs, which also brought violent shaking.

If it was a galleon, it might have crushed the waves and drove over, only swaying slightly with the current, because this heavy merchant ship was designed to sail to the sea.

This is not the case with dhows.

What this kind of merchant ship is best at is to move along the coastline, and in the previous life, even from Europe to Africa, and then around the Cape of Good Hope to Asia, a sloop merchant ship was enough to do it.

But the Atlantic Ocean, from Europe to the east coast of the Americas, is much more vulnerable to the currents and monsoons.

Generally speaking, the reason why pirates on the earth choose dhows is because their destinations are mostly related to the Caribbean Sea, which belongs to the coastal waters of the Americas and has a complex environment.

Now the world in which Levi lives is all islands, which means that after Levi leaves the offshore waters of Dayinpan Island, he is facing the immeasurable deep sea.

Therefore, dhow ships are more suitable for activities in the waters around the islands.

Entering the deep sea like this is also the help of Levi's special effects, which can summon mysterious winds to increase speed at critical times, so there is no danger of sinking and falling.

At least when the two special effects of short-term explosion and long-lasting are activated, no matter what predicament Levi faces, if he wants to escape, it is still quite simple.

[Special Effect]: Revive Monsoon: Consume 100 energy points to summon a mysterious monsoon that lasts for two hours, which can help your fleet sail with the wind for a long time. ”

[Special Effect]: Howling Wind: Consumes 100 energy points to summon a storm to blow for ten minutes, which can speed up the fleet for a short time, and can also set off huge waves on the sea. ”

This is what he is relying on now, and it is also the reason why he dared to enter the deep sea with this dhow.

Otherwise, with this thin small warship, but only 18 naval guns, once it encounters the enemy after entering the deep sea, I am afraid that it will be quite troublesome, and there is even a danger of being captured.

"Captain, there's a situation!"

As Levi pondered, an observer from the mast interrupted his thoughts.

I couldn't help but look up, and the observer had already stood up on the mast, looking at the sea in front of him very seriously, and then put down the telescope in his hand and shouted down: "It's the storm belt!" ”

"Storm Zone?"

Levi and the captain beside him were both slightly stunned, and immediately looked into the distance, and at the end of the field of vision, on the horizon, a faint black line was also diffuse.

It is the storm that represents the horror of the storm, the raging storm will sweep the entire sea, make the violent waves rise and fall, and the whole sea will seem to be angry, that is the true face of the sea.

Sailors who have survived storms in the past have claimed to have conquered the sea once.

However, the captain of the dhow frowned tightly, turned to look at the fifty sailors on the deck behind him, and said loudly: "Prepare to turn the rudder right to avoid that storm." ”

He didn't want to try it, to challenge the dangerous storm, and as an Imperial soldier, he also knew in his heart what his duty was!

"It's a big storm belt."

Levi had already opened his binoculars, and a strong sea breeze was blowing in that direction, and the fierce wind had already swept over in barely three or five seconds.

This also affected the sails, and the sailors also shouted loudly, quickly changing the direction of the sails, even if it was against the wind, they also absorbed the power of the wind, and sailed quickly towards the right sea area in a zigzag shape.

Of course, they need to avoid the storm belt in the distance, and according to the captain's observations, the direction to the right seems to be a little smaller.

The tension suddenly spread on the sea, and the sailors quickly adjusted the sails, but did not return to the cabin, all of them were on standby, and they were all cautiously watching the black line in the distance.

A faint roar of thunder was already in the distance, rumbling like a cannon being fired.

The telescope in Levi's hand couldn't help but rise, and his vision instantly became extremely far away, and at the end of the horizon on the left side of the sloop, the thick dark clouds could be seen rolling in the wind.

And the dark clouds were rolling, and thunder and lightning were also crackling, with flickering electric light.

Even through the telescope, Levi could see in the far distance, in the midst of the violent waves, there seemed to be groups of things struggling.

With his dark scales and short body, Levi's telescope had already clearly put that kind of thing into his eyes, and he couldn't help frowning slightly, muttering as if he was puzzled: "Kou Tao Fishman? ”

It was indeed Kou Tao Fishman, and Li Wei and this group of guys had dealt with more than once.

From just coming to this world to officially entering Cape Town, this group of Kou Tao Fishmen has clashed with Levi's army more than once, and it can be called a race war.

However, his brow furrowed slightly, and if he thought about it carefully, he could find that he really hadn't seen these disgusting creatures in a recent period.

"It's indeed the Kou Tao Fishman."

Although the captain had never seen such a creature before, he could basically tell it from the words of his colleagues alone, and he also frowned, and said with some solemnity: "They seem to be caught in the storm zone." ”

Nodding, Levi also found that those Kou Tao fish people were being washed away by piles in the violent waves, and they could not form an effective group at all.

Not to mention these Kou Tao Fishmen, even the dhow under Levi's feet was shaking because of the violently undulating waves, and the Kou Tao Fishmen, who were countless times smaller than the warship, had almost been scattered and collapsed!

"Are we already on a new route?"

Levi's mind remembered that the so-called new route was the lair of the Kou Tao Fishman, and he also had an island of his own, which was also being invaded by those elves.

Pursing his lips, Levi's heart was also firm, and he said to the captain next to him: "Keep moving forward, I think our course is definitely not wrong!" ”

As long as the islands on the new route can be discovered, then the next step is not the elven fleet to attack Cape Town as a barrier, but Levi's fleet to use it as a barrier to start the defense of Cape Town.

And as long as that island is discovered, whether it is attacking the elven sea area, or Levi has another territory, it is basically random to advance and retreat, and there is an absolute guarantee.

The three holes of the cunning rabbit, at least Levi's coveting of the new territory, also has a strong desire with his strength greatly increased!

ps: I went out today, so a change, tomorrow I will work harder, I hope you will forgive me. Ahem, to be honest, now I also want to be cheeky and ask for monthly tickets and recommendation tickets, and I will continue to explode tomorrow, so don't worry! Anyway, the recommended tickets are free, everyone must come more, the free tickets are refreshed every day, isn't it a waste if you don't vote... (To be continued.) )
