Chapter 1425: Set sail
Mishiwara, a port city in the western part of the mainland, is not the border of the Nasser Empire, and the western part of the continent is basically a small country, of course, these countries are basically human countries, but they do not belong to the Nasser Empire, but they are basically all vassal states of the Nasser Empire. This port city is the capital of a small country, of course, this small country is also a vassal of the Nasser Empire, this small country has nothing else to boast about, but this port is indeed the largest port in the western part of the continent, and there are even flights to the dwarves and elves.
Li Huailin They are here now, this is still a clue that they asked after looking for a long time, yes, although they know that their crusade target is on the sea in the western part of the continent, but they don't know where it is, but the five professional players can still discuss a little reliable result when they get together, this time it is to summon the Jade Emperor to propose to go to the Mercenary Guild to ask if there are any clues, because there is more news over there.
As a result, they went to the Mercenary Guild, and what they saw made them almost vomit blood, the task of crusading against the sea dragon Lakiaculus is really not exclusive, the Mercenary Guild also has an identical task, and the Mercenary Guild is also set by the S-level standard, and the bounty given is still 100,000 gold coins.
The five of them looked at the task list given by the Mercenary Guild, and then looked at the task list given by the Evain Explorer in their hands, TMD even gave the same picture, except that the bounty below was missing, it could almost be said that they were taken as such.
"It's definitely a cheat." Qianzai said, "Are these octopuses going to be able to get 100,000 gold coins by directly transferring the mission props we handed in to the Mercenary Guild?" ”
"Otherwise, we'll wait ten days...... summoned the Jade Emperor as well.
"Don't, I'm blowing out all the here, how can I see people after I stop now." Li Huailin said immediately. Yes, the news has already spread, Li Huailin is taking on the task in front of so many people, and it is also an S-level mission, this news is too exciting. Of course, it will be spread out immediately, Li Huailin knows that he must have gotten the top post again even if he is not on the forum now, although this is indeed a big deal to listen to, but at this time, you can't be cowardly, what is 100,000 gold coins, face is the biggest.
"This octopus must be aimed at us." Summoned the Jade Emperor and said. "Why did you pick this S-class for so many tasks?"
"It doesn't matter if he's targeting or not." Li Huailin waved his hand directly, "What kind of sea dragon, don't worry, look at my strength to defend ......"
Although it feels a little cheated, they are not money lovers when they summon the Jade Emperor, so forget it, but what makes people even more unhappy is the attitude of both sides. The Evain Explorer gave him a wanted post, and then even the approximate location was told in the system quest prompt. And even if the mercenary guild didn't take the task, someone kindly told you about the general situation of the mission, and also suggested that Li Huailin and them go to Mishivala, the difference is too big.
Anyway, Li Huailin and the others still came to Mishivala according to the advice of the Mercenary Guild. This is a very quiet port city, because the small countries in the western part of the continent have rarely had wars, probably for hundreds of years, so the whole environment is completely different from the Nasser Empire, and the rhythm of the surroundings looks very leisurely, and it feels like a tourist attraction.
I walked around the city and didn't see any other players. It may be that the surrounding monsters are not suitable for the player to level up, that is, the people who do the task come back here. There are no players. The city is relatively quiet, in short, it is a rare place in the game to be relatively peaceful.
Of course, Li Huailin and they are still here to do the task, not to travel, first of all, to ask the clues of the sea dragon Lakiakulus, of course, the target of the inquiry is the nearby boatman, the task tip does not say that the sea dragon often attacks fishermen. So they should know something.
"Sea Dragon Rakiaculus?" When a fisherman heard Li Huailin's questioning, his face turned pale before he could say anything, "That's the lord of the sea, why do you want to crusade against it?" Young people should cherish life......"
As with the quest hint, the fishermen in the vicinity seem to know about the sea dragon Rakiakurus. And some people also worship it as the god of the sea, every time before going out of the boat, they have to sacrifice the sea dragon Lakiaculus, so that it is said that they will not be attacked by it, and over time, the sacrifice of Lachiaculus seems to have become a kind of boat ceremony for the fishermen, anyway, the fishermen are reluctant to mention this more, just like the general Illuminati do not want to comment more on the god of light, you can't talk about the quality of the god you believe in.
Fortunately, not all fishermen think that Rakiaculus is a god, and there are also guys who recognize the facts, such as the fisherman named Kalano that Li Huailin found them. This guy is a strong man of forty or fifty years old, although he is a little old, but his body is still very strong, and his dark skin looks like a very pure fisherman, and then the reason why this guy does not believe in the sea dragon Rakiaculus is also very simple, because his son was killed by Rakiaculus, and of course he will not worship him as a god.
"I have a way to find it." Kalenor said straight to the point.
"Really? Be sure to teach us. Summoning the Jade Emperor said immediately.
"No need to teach, I'll take you directly to find it." Kaleno stood up directly and said, "You are here to crusade against his adventurers, right, the sea dragon Lachiaculus haunts the deep sea, if you want to find him, you must take an ocean-going fishing boat, and you must have an experienced fisherman who is willing to go out to take you there, many people here think that Lachiaculus is a god, and even non-believers dare not take the initiative to provoke it, because it is too dangerous." There aren't many people you can find, but I'm one, and I'm not afraid of death. ”
This guy is so self-volunteering, of course Li Huailin and they will not refuse, because although Li Huailin can fly, they can't summon the Jade Emperor, so the means of transportation can only be by boat, and Kalano's willingness to help find and borrow a boat is of course the best. So far, it seems to have gone well, but there was a little trouble before the voyage, and that was that there were not enough sailors.
Calano's fishing boats are not small wooden boats, but boats that can sail long distances, wooden structures, medium-sized boats, the main power is of course wind, and of course such boats require many sailors to operate. Kaleno himself also has more than thirty men under him, although some of them are also part-time, but they can basically make up the necessary number for each voyage. But this time it's not to fish, but to fight monsters, and Kalenor didn't hide it at all and told all the sailors about it, which involves a matter of life, even the bravest sailors will hesitate, not to mention that there are many sailors who themselves believe in Rakiaculus.
In short, after a period of consideration, in the end, only 10 people were willing to sail with Kalano, these 10 people were basically Kalano's henchmen, and they could be regarded as selling their lives to Kalano, so they knew the danger and followed, and the others Kalano didn't say anything about them, and the two sides said goodbye peacefully.
Although the scene is quite touching, the main problem is that there are still not enough people, not even half of the people who usually sail. But after a little calculation, usually because it's fishing, it takes a lot of people to pull the net, and it also needs to be packed and managed, but this time it's because it's going to fight monsters, so you don't need so many people.
"A few of you can help too, that's probably enough." Calano said here.
"Huh?" Li Huailin was directly stunned, "Uncle, you let us sail?" ”
"It's not about driving a boat, it's about doing handymen, helping with sails and stuff." Calano said, "Don't worry, I'll tell you what you want to do, remember that I'm the captain on the ship, just listen to me, and I'll make sure you come back safely." ”
"Hehe......" Li Huailin really has nothing to say, isn't the main force of the battle himself? I'll make sure you'll come back safely.
Because of the lack of manpower, the whole ship is a bit empty, but there are a lot of people who come to see them off, and the city is relatively small, and everyone has heard about Kalano's voyage to find Lakiacurus, although they are not optimistic about this matter, but because of Kalano's usual relationship, everyone also came to see them off, and the scene was quite spectacular. There was even a fisherman who somewhere found a small cannon, probably a 30mm caliber mountain cannon, and gave it to Kalano, I wonder what they thought about it, did they expect to use it to fight monsters.
Anyway, the ship set sail anyway. Shortly after departing from the port, Kalanor walked to the front of the ship, as if to observe the surrounding situation, looking for the location of Rakiaculus, Li Huailin walked up to take a look with a little curiosity, but found that Kalano had his eyes closed.
"yes, I see." After a while, Calano on this side opened his eyes, "Everyone, turn the rudder on the left and head due west, Lakiaculus is in the west." ”
"Huh? You've found it, how did you find it, don't tell me you can find Rakiaculus with your eyes closed and telepathically. Li Huailin couldn't help but say.
"You know what." With a wave of his hand, Kalenor said, "A good seafarer can tell the direction of a storm just by feeling the humidity of a wind in the air. Forget it, I told you that you don't understand, there is a shortage of people on the foresail, you can go over and help now, Nord, teach him how to pull the sails, and you, go to the deck to help.
