Chapter Ninety-Three: The Island
"This is a high-class battleship, it's so big, it's no wonder it can sail in the sea"
Two days later, in the navigation village, Mo Le and Xu Shu stood side by side, Xu Shu looked at the dock, the moored high-level warship, but the huge battleship made Xu Shu stunned, what he saw and heard in Xiaoyao City in the past two days, for the technology of Xiaoyao City, Xu Shu has adapted.
"This is just a high-level warship, there will be a king-class battleship in the future, and even an immortal-class battleship, when that is the sea is our world"
Mo Le said with certainty, the fact is also the case, with the current speed of development, it will not be long before the dock can produce king-class battleships, in Mo Le's eyes, high-level warships are still not enough, can only barely enter the deep sea, but if it encounters bad weather, it is still enough.
In Mo Le's heart, he is at least a king-level battleship, so that he can be proud of the sea and not afraid of the power of nature.
"The most correct decision Xu Shu made in this life was to be loyal to the lord"
Xu Shu's face was full of fighting spirit, his eyes were full of essence, his expression was a little excited, and he said confidently.
"Haha, it's a great blessing that Lotte can get Yuanzhi"
Mo Le Daxiao, his expression was full of joy, and the two monarchs and ministers praised each other, and at this moment, Li Wen walked towards them quickly.
"My lord, the ship is ready to go"
Li Wen bowed respectfully and whispered to Mo Le.
"Li Wen, thank you for your hard work"
A trace of expectation appeared on Mo Le's face, and he said sincerely to Li Wen, Mo Le is completely sincere, and the shipyard can develop so fast without Li Wen's hard work day and night.
"All subordinates should be"
Li Wen was still very respectful, but a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes, and being able to get Mole's affirmation was the greatest encouragement to Li Wen.
"Boarding the ship"
After comforting Li Wen, Mo Le did not hesitate, and shouted to the people behind him.
Behind Mo Le, followed by Xu Shu, Dian Wei's master and apprentice, and 500 dragoons, there are now a large number of war horses, and in the past two days, another 200 people have been transferred to dragoons.
"Tread·· Step·· Tread"
Walking on the pace of unity, riding a war horse, Mo Le and the others quickly boarded the battleship, this time Mo Le took two battleships to sea, even if it was a high-level warship, the space was limited, in addition to a large number of sailors, there were 1000 sailors, plus 500 dragoons, a battleship was completely insufficient.
"Departure"
I saw Mo Le standing at the bow of the boat, the sea breeze blowing in his face, and the cloak of the gale armor fluttering in the wind.
"Anchoring"
"Sail"
"Go to Sea"
The captain shouted loudly, and suddenly more than a dozen burly sailors pulled the rope with the thickness of their arms, and the anchor gradually surfaced into the water, and nearly a hundred sailors pulled the sails, and suddenly the battleship slowly moved forward.
"Right Full Rudder"
"Full speed ahead"
The captain shouted again, and the battleship slowly turned to the right, and the speed became faster and faster, but at this moment, Mo Le walked to the captain's side curiously, only to see the captain looking ahead intently, and carefully directing the battleship to drive.
"The Lord"
Seeing Mo Le coming, the captain withdrew his gaze from looking into the distance, looked at Mo Le, looked a little excited, and a little excited, and shouted respectfully.
"What's your name?"
Seeing that he was a little nervous, Mo Le asked softly.
"Lord, my name is Wen Hai, I used to be a fisherman by the sea, and then I went to the camp of the homeless camp, and I went to sea to fish, so Lord Li asked me to try to drive a warship."
Seeing Mo Le's peaceful appearance, Wen Hai gradually became natural, and gently answered Mo Le's question.
"Is it difficult to command a battleship, I see that you are very skilled"
Mo Le asked again, his expression was flat, and his tone was very easy-going, making Wen Hai feel like a spring breeze.
"It's not difficult at all, you can get started, it's bigger than my fishing boat, and Master Li also said that I am a genius."
Wen Hai was completely relaxed, his voice gradually became louder, a smile appeared on his face, and he said briskly.
"Then you are really a genius, do you know the situation of the battleship, what is his maximum speed"
Speaking of the battleship, Wen Hai immediately became confident, and Mo Le continued to ask.
"I know, we are a high-level battleship, 150 meters long, 30 meters wide, with a full load of 2,000 people, and a maximum speed of 30 nautical miles, which is much stronger than a medium-class battleship, and the maximum speed of a medium-class battleship is only 20 knots, which is slow to death."
Speaking of the battleship, Wen Hai became more and more excited, and immediately introduced it.
"Yes, Wenhai is doing a good job"
After getting to know the battleship briefly, Mo Le patted Wen Hai on the shoulder, said a little encouragement, and got up to leave.
A few hours later, Mo Le stood at the bow of the battleship, looking at the vast sea, but there was a trace of worry on his face, and there was longing and helplessness in his eyes.
"My lord, I am thinking about all kinds of resentments and curses again"
Xu Shu walked quietly and said softly to Mo Le, the most important thing in going to sea this time is to find a way to save the curse of ten thousand resentments.
"Hmm"
Mo Le responded softly, the excitement and joy that had just gone to sea disappeared completely, looking at the endless sea at this moment, there was a trace of confusion in his eyes, and now it is only ten days before the curse of ten thousand grievances broke out, and Xu Shu got the news from the ancient books that in the eastern sea on land, there is an immortal island that can contact the curse of ten thousand grievances, and this trip is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"The lord has a long fortune, and he will definitely be able to find the fairy island and lift the curse of ten thousand grievances."
Xu Shu said with confidence, if you want to say that Xu Shu has also learned some methods of observing qi, no matter how you look at Mole now, you don't want to be in trouble, but you are lucky.
"Hehe, Yuan Zhi doesn't have to comfort me, I'm a stranger, even if the curse of ten thousand grievances erupts, I won't really die, I just don't want to be a powerless person"
Mo Le smiled miserably and said helplessly.
"The lord can rest assured, if there is a day, Dian Wei will protect the lord every step of the way"
Unconsciously, Dian Wei also came to Mo Le's side, and at this time, he assured him very seriously.
"I should do my best to keep the enemy out of the portal"
Xu Shu also swore and said.
"Haha, how lucky Lotte is, to be able to get such a good minister and fierce general, this life is enough"
Seeing that the two of them were talking very seriously, Mo Le swept away his worries, got up, and said happily.
"The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, I don't want to, I don't want to, it's a big deal to stay in Xiaoyao City in the future, with the help of the two of you, Xiaoyao City can still roar the world"
Mo Le continued, but his words were full of fighting spirit and domineering.
"There is an island, and there is an island in front of it"
Suddenly, the sailors on the watchtower of the battleship yelled at the deck and made a few gestures to Wen Hai.
"Lord, there is an island in front of you, and there is cooking smoke on the island, do you see if we can lean in."
After Wen Hai replied with a few gestures, he ran to Mo Le's side and asked Mo Le for instructions.
"Oh, there's smoke, lean in"
Mo Le was stunned, he didn't expect that there was still cooking smoke on the island, so he decided to land on the island.
"Dian Wei, let the soldiers prepare, we will land on the island immediately"
After Wen Hai left, Mo Le said to Dian Wei again.
"No"
Dian Wei answered, and left as well, leaving the dragoons ready to go.
A moment later, the island appeared in front of Mo Le's eyes, and they were still about 1,000 meters away from the island, but they could faintly see that there were several places on the island, and thick black smoke was rising.
"The lord is not right, this is not cooking smoke, but I want to burn something"
The battleship kept approaching, and the island was getting closer and closer, but Xu Shu suddenly said.
"Uh, what's wrong?"
Seeing that Xu Shu's eyes flashed with doubt, and there was still a trace of worry on his face, Mo Le asked curiously.
"Lord, this black smoke seems to be burning corpses, I once traveled to a remote village, where when people die, they are not buried, but cremated."
Xu Shu explained.
"It is said that if it is cremated, it should also be in one place, but these black smoke are far apart, on this island, I am afraid that there are some problems, and when you go to the island, you need to be careful."
Xu Shu reminded softly.
"Well, I'll be careful, wait for Yuan Zhi to stay on the battleship, I'll go down and take a look first"
After Xu Shu reminded him, Mo Le also agreed, and suddenly became cautious.
"The lord doesn't need to worry, with Dian Wei here, he will be able to keep me safe, and on the island, maybe I will be used."
Xu Shu insisted on going to the island, and Mo Le was right to think about it, with Dian Wei here, no matter how bad the situation was, he could keep them safe, so he didn't force it anymore.
"Drop the boat"
"Lower the rope ladder"
When the battleship was 100 meters away from the island, Wenhai suddenly stopped the battleship and ran to Mo Le's side, saying that the coast was too shallow for the battleship to be in front, or it should run aground.
He also said that if he wanted to go to the island, he had to go by boat, and Mo Le immediately agreed.
To say that this small boat is not small, a small boat can do 50 people, Wen Hai put down 20 small boats, even if you add sailors, it is enough for Mo Le and the dragoons to ride.
Soon Mo Le and the others boarded the boat, and with the efforts of the sailors, they reached the edge of the island in a few moments, and Mo Le and the dragoons disembarked one after another.
"You go back to the battleship first"
After getting off the boat, Mo Le looked at the island, only to see that behind the sandy beach of dozens of meters, there was a dense jungle, there was nothing else, not even a single animal was seen, and it was very silent.
Mo Le thought about it or let the sailors row a small boat back to the battleship, after all, the situation on the island was not known at all, these sailors did not have much combat power, in case something happened, they would die in vain.
After watching the boat leave, Mo Le and the others also set off, and they headed towards the place where the black smoke rose, but after a while, a light wind blew, and there was a pungent breath.
"What does it taste like?"
Mo Le frowned, covered his nose and said.
"The smell of burning, the smell of burning corpses"
At this time, Xu Shu on the side said, and saw that Xu Shu was also covering his nose, as if he couldn't stand the smell.
"The smell is coming from over there"
But Dian Wei was not affected at all, only to see him pointing to his left and saying affirmatively.
"Go this way, be careful, everyone"
For Dian Wei, Mo Le trusted him a lot, and immediately walked in the direction Dian Wei said.
Ten minutes later, they walked through a grove of trees to a small clearing, where they saw a charred corpse, still emitting faint black smoke, and the pungent smell was coming from him, and the posture was very strange.
"He was burned alive"
