Chapter 112: Return Home! (The Pirate Arc is officially over)

The merfolk didn't take all the fountains of immortality with them. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info because they still have their people who will continue to thrive here. Of the 2016 mermaids, 516 were left, most of them were elderly mermaids, and of course some were soldiers who were protecting their homes and merfolk who were about to give birth.

The threat to Juan Ponce de León is Xu Feng's biggest concern, and he wants to persuade all the mermaids to move, but for this hometown that has lived for tens of thousands of years, especially the old people, he can't give it up at all.

Sadly bidding farewell to these old mermaids who love their homeland, Xu Feng finally embarked on the journey back.

The route of the Devil's Triangle in Bermuda, Xu Feng didn't plan to take it again, even the mermaids regarded it as a forbidden area of death, Xu Feng didn't want to take such a risk. The last strange experience is still fresh in my memory, and it can really be called a forbidden place, whether it is a human or an ordinary sea creature.

However, with 1,500 merfolk who could freely live on the bottom of the sea, Xu Feng did not plan to bypass Bermuda and return the same way. Being found is a hidden danger, this Nima is a rare species, standing on the boat are all big beauties, once it is passed on to the player's ears, whether Xu Feng is pretending to be an NPC or not, it will attract the attention of everyone in the world. That's not what I want. In addition, they are all legendary mermaids, and it is estimated that even the system forces will come to fight his attention.

Strength, Xu Feng urgently needs to expand his strength now, buy a large sailing ship, if he can get a giant ship, it would be even better! However, at this stage, large ships are already the upper limit that players can buy, and they must also be purchased in their home country.

At the beginning of the real Age of Discovery, if you wanted to reach the Americas from Asia, you first took this route that Xu Feng traveled. Later, due to the increasing number of shipwrecks in Bermuda, new shipping lanes were opened from Africa to South America. The biggest advantage of this route is that the first half of the route is basically close to the mainland, and the risk is smaller. There are multiple resupply points along the route. On top of that, merchants could use the cities along the route to resell goods and make a profit.

But in April 1565, after the Spanish invasion of the Philippines. In June, the galleon "San Pablo" was dispatched to Acapulco, on the south coast of Mexico, laden with spices from Asia, opening a Pacific route connecting Asia and the Americas. Since then, the trade in galleons between the two places has become more and more frequent. (The galleon sails north from Manila in June every year by the southwest monsoon, to the waters of 45 ° ~ 42 ° north latitude, along the "Kuroshio" in the North Pacific Ocean to the east, and finally to Acapulco, with a journey of more than 10,000 nautical miles, which lasted about 6 months (the return journey was a direct voyage along the ocean current, which lasted about 3 months). )

The waterway, which stretches from Acapulco on the west coast of Mexico in the east to Manila in the Philippines in the west, is known as the Manila galleon trade.

And this is the route that Xu Feng wants to take. Because he wanted to go home early.

There are merfolk people scouting under the sea and controlling the course of the ship by themselves, Xu Feng knows that this is definitely a way to quickly return to Dahuaguo.

……

Xu Feng's princess has become a real princess at this moment, except for Xu Feng, a big captain, the rest are all women. The Friendship followed closely behind by more than 300 merfolk resting on it.

Merfolk cannot stay on land or on deck for long periods of time, and the maximum amount of time they can stay on land is a week. After more than 1 week, they will suffer from severe dehydration and even die.

So there was a spectacular scene in Xu Feng's two boats: every once in a while, hundreds of people would jump from the deck into the sea, and of course, dozens of hundreds would climb back into the ship from the sea.

The most pitiful thing is Xu Feng's original more than 70 pirate subordinates on the Friendship, because of the joining of these mermaid spirits, they are shocked and frightened at the moment. Although each of them looks like a beauty, the thought of a good pair of feet turning into a fish tail in an instant has a huge impact on them! It will take a while for them to get used to this life.

In addition, the total number of fish spirits in this gang is more than 20 times that of them. These 70 old men are not to mention presumptuous, and now even the living space has been reduced to the range of a few cabins, and the captain's room of Captain Batudai has been given up and has become the foothold of the mermaid clan.

There is another thing that is even more terrifying for Batu's group, that is, they don't dare to fish and eat seafood at all...... I was afraid that these beautiful big fish would pounce on them and eat them back.

Xu Feng is also full of happy troubles now, this subordinate can't recruit when he wants, and it's not enough to recruit the ship when he gets it! Oh my God, fortunately they are all mermaids who can swim, and if they were humans, they would never be able to bring them back.

Xu Feng's big ship basically has no cargo, and it can only carry about 400 seafarers, so it can be seen that under the sea of the two ships, the beautiful figures are like escort ships, and the loyal guards are around, and only when they are tired, they will come up to rest.

It's not that Xu Feng doesn't want to buy ships, it's just that he is not a domestic player, and he can only buy medium-sized and below ships, which is equivalent to a drop in the bucket for Xu Feng's subordinates, plus there are many ships, and there are many inconveniences in sailing. After consulting with Yanara, such a decision was made.

The route that every player has taken can be found on their own system page, so opening up a new route is beneficial to Xu Feng. In the future, even if this route is made into a nautical chart, it will make a lot of money. The most powerful thing is that when Xu Feng returns to China from this legendary Manila galleon trade route, then he will be the first human to circumnavigate the earth. Although there will be no system rewards, this can be regarded as something worthy of his own memorial and a real milestone for himself.

The Panama Canal in later generations was not dredged, and Xu Feng needed to stick to South America and go around the Pacific Ocean in order to embark on this Manila galleon trade route. Careful every time they landed, the mermaid would stay in the deep sea area and wait for the ship's resupply. And just like that, stopping and stopping, we finally came to Acapulco. Next, it was necessary to go straight through the Pacific Ocean, and there were almost few places to replenish along the way, and in this port, Xu Feng bought enough Tamsui River food.
