CH.193 Nesting
It was a sunny day, the sun cast a hexagonal beam of light, there were a few flocculent thin clouds in the sky, and the sea and the sky were all the same pure blue, and a thin horizontal line could be seen at the end of the sea level. Six ships with the Cangtian as the flagship and the seagulls as their companions, marched around the Dragon's Nest Island, the speed of the ships was not fast, and gently pushed away the seawater. The waves rolled in and made a rhythmic sound.
Tang Ke stood on the starboard side of the Sky, feeling the sea breeze blowing on his face, and his black hair combed back of his head fluttered. Holding up his binoculars, he looked at the mountains on the opposite side and got a good look at the islands that were close at hand.
"Ding! You completed part of the 'Explore the Island' quest and earned 200 bonus points! ”
A system prompt didn't interrupt him, and he was still holding the telescope, but the corners of his mouth were faintly curled.
Exploring Dragon's Nest Island is an old quest that Donk has taken on, and for each area he explores, he will receive a small bonus point, which is now recognized by the system, even if he is now traveling around the coast. At the same time, the ship's surveyors are meticulously mapping Dragon's Nest Island, which is about to become their new home, and of course has to be explored.
The idle pirates lay on the side of the ship, looking up like the captain, and occasionally their guns were raised to shoot at the seabirds and the wild beasts on the shore. Everyone's emotions were very high, because this was about to become their nest. All pirates need to have a nest, some in a port, some in an island, which can be used for supplies and hideout.
The dragon pirate group spent two days circling the island, figuring out the shape of the island, which is an irregular strip shaped like a melon and fruit, with an area of more than 3,000 square kilometers, which is quite a large island. The island is home to many olive trees and green shrubs, all of which are well adapted to the climate, and there are many wild beasts running around the island, and some of the more terrifying beings than the wild beasts are inhabited. Beasts are larger than wild beasts and possess higher intelligence, making them a rather tricky group of land-sitters. Speaking of ferocious beasts, the gibbons in the pirate regiment are a good example.
From time to time, a deafening roar sounded on the island, which didn't sound friendly at all, but it was impossible to intimidate the Donk pirates, and when it came to ferocity, they wouldn't lose to the beasts!
In the middle of the island, there is also a volcano, the mouth of which is level, it looks like it has not erupted in many years, and the mountain is crisscrossed with ravines, resembling a group of fire dragons climbing upward. Hot springs are easy to appear in places with volcanoes, which makes the pirates look forward to it, especially the women Iona, Wendy, and Flower Dew, whose eyes are shining.
That's the basic information that the Dragon Pirates know so far.
Their fleet found a suitable place to disembark, a sandy beach with a flat terrain and a bush in front of it, which looked like a good place to develop buildings. The pirates docked their ships and went ashore, and this time they were well prepared, with a plan written by Iona that the pirates were to take the island step by step.
Donk and the best of the pirate group were the first to go ashore, and they were in charge of guarding, and in small groups, they sealed off the shore and made a safe open space for those behind. The sound of the gun alone was enough to scare away the beasts, but the real danger came from those potentially large beasts, so no one dared to relax, the swordsman's palms were sweating slightly, the archers stretched the bowstring to "creak", the gunner's eyes did not leave the muzzle of the gun for a moment, and several long-armed bears grinned and growled.
The second group of pirates who came ashore was not easy, and they immediately began to build in a hurry, first erecting a simple dock and laying a wooden bridge to cross the sea from the shore to the sea, with which a large number of supplies could be transported smoothly to the island. The work of building the bridge was presided over by Lu Ban, and the dwarf was busy and sweating profusely, and he had always been a rigid man, and when he found that the workers were not doing their work, he would blow his beard and stare at him angrily.
With the wooden bridge, the sailing ships stopped at the edge of the wooden bridge, and the pirates rushed in and out, transporting all kinds of supplies to the shore, which were wrapped in cloth and tied with thick hemp rope on the outside, and only the label could be used to determine what was inside. No matter what the material was, the uniform characteristic was that it was heavy, and sometimes a few pirates had to carry a large one, and when they exerted their strength, even the green tendons on their necks were tensed.
Thankfully, Iona, Wendy, and Dew were occasionally cheered on, and their melodious voices were like a cool breeze, which encouraged the pirates.
The pirates had to build a makeshift house before the fall and lay enough fortifications around it, which was not only a huge project, but also a tight schedule. The pirate group went up and down, and even a single idler could not be seen, and they were all nervous and busy.
Among the supplies was timber, but it was not enough, and the pirates needed to use the trees on the shore.
The pirates in charge of the vigilance approached the island, deep into the woods, leaving sentry posts at short intervals in a circle. Another wave of pirates took on the role of lumberjacks, picking up large axes and cutting down tree after tree. In this way, not only was the wood replenished, but the surrounding area was also emptied, freeing up a large open space.
Once the wood was in hand, it was the turn of the carpenters to show their skills, cutting it, sharpening it, and then tying it together to make a "horse rejection". The so-called rejection of horses is a kind of defense tool that has existed since ancient times, and after tying the sharp logs together, the horses cannot cross, otherwise they will be stabbed to death by the sharp logs. This kind of thing was originally used to restrain cavalry, but here, it was simply to defend against the attack of wild beasts. There are many kinds of rejections, and the pirates are only the simplest ones to make.
The defensive effect of the repulsion was very significant, and when the rows of repulsion horses formed in a circle, the pirates in charge of the guard breathed a sigh of relief. But the rejection of the horse alone could not defend itself against the huge beast, so the next thing to be transported off the ship was the shiny gun carriage!
These short-barreled mortars on wheels are highly flexible and can be placed in any position, and the muzzle can be adjusted in height and rotated left and right through the wheels, making them ideal for striking huge beasts. The bomb-spitting frogs were also mixed with the gun trucks, and they stayed behind the horses, so that they could shoot the shells with peace of mind.
After the fortifications were formed, the pirates felt much more relieved, and the work began to build the houses.
The climate here in Longchao Island is pleasant all year round, so it is enough to build a wooden house.
Lu Ban was in charge of overseeing the construction, and he had some of the carpenters and sailors recruited by the system, and some of the builders recruited from the Little Pirate City. The group gathered together and chatted about the map they had just drawn, but it didn't take long for the building plan to be finalized.
Because it was only a temporary residence, it was built in simple houses, and there was no foundation, but the wooden planks were put together and nails were nailed. The carpenters were busy in an orderly manner, Lu Ban pinched the drawings and commanded, with a pencil in his fat ear, and he had the demeanor of a contract foreman. Other workers are responsible for the specific construction, obeying the command, and performing their own duties. It didn't take long to see wooden shelves erected one by one, and the prototype of the house was born.
Donk looked around and felt that unity was strength, and all he had to do was close his eyes, and when he opened them again, the scene in front of him would be completely different.
The pirates did their work well, and there were no beasts on the way, and by evening they had completed their work as scheduled, and had built a large wooden hut large enough to accommodate three hundred people. As for the outer fortifications, it also tended to be perfected, not only with a continuous repulsion of horses, but also with a gate to the courtyard of the island, and a series of towering watchtowers, which were lit with torches and had people standing guard in turn. Of course, this is only a temporary foothold, and the pirates will continue to explore and advance in the future, and the houses they build will be lifelong residences. Not to mention the house, even the bridge at the pier had to be reinforced.
"Ding! You have captured Dragon's Nest Island, which will become your territory, where you can set up an administrative structure, build various functional buildings, receive passing ships, or build a military base. ”
"Ding! If you build a port, it is currently 45 in armament and 0 in commerce, and the next two increases will increase your bonus points. ”
"Ding! You have activated the port system, and you can view all kinds of information about the ports you own. ”
In the evening, several prompts sounded in a row, disturbing Tang Ke who was on patrol, he was stunned at first, and then looked through several prompts one by one, but he didn't expect that all of them were good news, which made him excited. It is nothing for the system to recognize Dragon's Nest Island as a territory, the key is that as long as Dragon's Nest Island develops, reward points will roll in. In this way, Dragon's Nest Island is not just a supply port or a lair, it is also a machine that creates bonus points!
It has always been very difficult for Donk to earn reward points, and there is no way to be opportunistic, so he can only obtain them by fighting or completing tasks, but Rao is so, and he has never had a time when reward points are abundant. If he is allowed to increase the reward points only by doing tasks, I am afraid that he will not be able to grow the pirate group for the rest of his life, and at most he can only arm himself into a first-class master, and that's it.
Fortunately, the construction of the port provided him with a major turning point, firstly, because the construction of the port was already beneficial to him, and secondly, he could earn reward points, which was like killing two birds with one stone. As the days go by, the port will naturally grow slowly, and there is no worry that it will not prosper. The key thing is that Donk can also give the port [***] to other people to take care of, he only needs to sit and collect bonus points.
The more he thought about it, the happier he became, and the smile on his face grew.
"Grand Master Donk, what are you smirking at there?" The voice came from behind, and there was a refreshing fragrance in the heart.
Donk heard Wendy's voice and turned around with a smile. The sea elves stood there enchantingly, revealing an alluring mature charm.
Wendy has a little more mysterious beauty against the backdrop of the night, and the fluorescent spots in the corners of her eyes are slightly shiny, brilliant and colorful. Her collar was low, revealing two plump breasts, her skin was smooth and soft, one side of the lilac dress was open, and a slender and smooth leg was about to be hidden. She is tall and tall, and her back buttocks are very tight and round, which makes the mouth dry of any man who looks at it. The only pity is that Wendy is still wearing a mask and hiding her scarred face. The beautiful eyes above her mask were smiling, and their eyes were swirling, as if they could melt any steel.
Donk pretended to be mysterious and said, "Do you want to know why I'm laughing?" If you want to know, stick your head over, I'll tell you only one person. ”
Wendy tilted her head slightly with interest, she had never been defensive against Donk, she obediently stretched out her side face, and her whole fragrant and soft body was also sent over.
Tonk felt a woman's tenderness rush over him, making his heart flutter, and he mischievously opened his mouth and blew hot air into Wendy's forked pointed ears.
Just like that, Wendy itched back two steps and said angrily, "It's so annoying that you lied to me." Half of her ears were already red, adding a touch of charm.
"If you feel like you're at a loss, you can blow my ears in reverse." Donk said unscrupulously.
Wendy didn't show weakness, and rolled her eyes and said, "Okay." Stick your head out. Her tone was obviously a bad idea.
Tang Ke liked Wendy's move the most, what was he afraid of, and he sent his face over to see what Wendy was going to do.
"Close your eyes and don't look."
"Okay, if you don't look at it, you won't watch it." Donk closed his eyes.
Wendy lifted the lower part of the white gauze mask, her lips opened lightly, stretched out the tip of her pink tongue, licked Tink's earlobe, and then quickly latched on, gently sucking it open, as if she was holding a piece of candy in her mouth, and every time she licked it, she would reap sweetness. Her lips moved slightly, her tongue was like a nimble little fish, and a dewy and flirtatious voice rang out.
Donke's ears were like an electric shock, sour and numb, and he felt very excited in his heart, almost screaming out in comfort, he found that the roots of his ears were also hot, and he was probably red, and secretly laughed at Wendy for pulling back a game.
"It's a good mouth." Donk's voice changed a bit.
Wendy bit a little harder one last before she removed her lips and pulled a curved and shiny saliva between her lips and Donk's ear, which she wiped off without hesitation.
"Thanks for the compliment." Wendy attracts Donk with a seductive look.
Donk is attracted by this kind of naked *naked* eyes, and responds dangerously, and has a tendency to go off the rails. The two breathed together, their eyes were hot, and the next topic seemed to be to discuss where to go.
"Hmph." This voice was like a thunderclap, disturbing the good things between the two, Iona stood out of nowhere, and walked between the two, like a wall, separating Donk and Wendy, she smiled at Wendy like a sister, then turned to look at Donk and said, "Sir, I have something to report." She blocked all of Donk's view.
Donk was stunned by Iona who was killed halfway, but in front of business, he always chose to let the bed stand aside, so he didn't mean to be annoyed at all.
Wendy patrolled back and forth between Iona and Donk, chuckled a few times, and said cooperatively, "You talk, I'll go see if the food is ready." She walked gracefully towards the campfire, leaving the two alone with each other.
The corners of Iona's mouth curled for a moment, then quickly retracted.
"What's the report?" Donk asked.
Iona paused for a moment, shook her head solemnly and said, "I'm sorry, let me forget, so let's go back and think about it first, and I'll tell you when I think about it." She blinked, then walked away.
Donk was left alone, with the fragrance of the two Yiren remaining around him, he pinched his waist, knowing in his heart that he had been fooled, and looked at Iona's back with a helpless smile.
"Lady housekeeper, it's really comprehensive......"
That night, the pirates held a bonfire feast and feasted on freshly grilled meat, which was naturally sourced from the island. The pirates sang and laughed with bottles in one hand and fragrant meat skewers in the other. Pirates have a knack for having fun, and they won't miss a chance to have a good time. After the pirates were half drunk, they jumped and jumped around the bonfire, and some people played the songs of their hometown on the violin, and the music was melodious and cheerful, which was deeply loved by the pirates. Donk also blended into the crowd and messed around with his rugged men for half the night.
After these guys settled on the island, I'm afraid I'll never think about peace.
With a land of their own and a house of their own, the pirates found a sense of home on Dragon's Nest, which was very different from living on a ship.
In this way, the dragon pirate group set up camp on Dragon's Nest Island, at first living in simple houses and boats, but gradually expanded. They expanded so fast that they drove away the beasts of the entire forest in a matter of days, killing two huge beasts in the process. They were outnumbered, and with the fact that Donk was no longer what it used to be, and a few long-armed bears to help, it was still easy to deal with a few fierce beasts. Moreover, after killing the beast, you can also get the beast's fur, bones, whips, horns and other trophies, all of which are valuable and can be sold in the future. Since the horses are tied up and can be moved at will, the arrangement can be changed as long as they are made.
Large tracts of trees were knocked down, and formal houses were built.
Tang Ke observes the port data every day, and finds that the degree of armament is rising, but the degree of commerce has not yet developed, he has a lot of plans for Longchao Island, and at the right time, he will consider opening up to the outside world, in that case, the degree of commerce will also rise.
On this day, Donk was sleeping soundly, and suddenly there was a noise outside the house, and then someone began to slam on the door, he got up against the dazzling sunlight, pushed open the door, and found that there were many people standing outside the house, and it was a mess, and it seemed that something was wrong.
Before Tang Ke could ask, there were already pirates who couldn't wait to say, "Commander, we've caught someone!" ”
Tang Ke frowned and asked again and again, "Caught someone?" Is there anyone else on this island? ”
"Isn't it! Look! The man stepped aside, and the man next to him stepped aside, and the man behind pushed a man with a lot of money in front of Donk.
Tang Ke looked at it fixedly, dumbfounded, and said, "Native? ”
