Chapter 83: Incoming Warehouse
Mr. Narrator looked at the weapon in the hand of this maritime history enthusiast in a daze, a little confused, this gentleman was polite and generous before, no matter how you look at it, he is not a thug, but now why is he pointing a gun at me?
It was this less than two seconds of stunned thought, so that Mr. Narrator forever lost the opportunity to open his mouth for help, he only felt that as soon as he saw a flower, he was immediately covered by someone, the distance between Lao Wang and him was not far, for the selector, it was not difficult to move to his side in two steps, and it was not difficult to completely control the person.
Wang Mancang stuck to the narrator's ear and said softly: "Mr. narrator, thank you for pointing out the correct location of the target for us, sorry I deceived you, we are not nautical enthusiasts at all, we are here for some kind of cargo on that round-bellied Dutch merchant ship, rest assured, we are not thieves, the previous explanation work has made you hard, so now, you can rest." β
Lao Wang's palm lifted the narrator's chin with force, and quickly stuffed a pill into his mouth, this is a powerful anesthetic, along with the euro they used for bribery before, and the pistol used for threats, all of which are elemental-type props purchased at a low price in the space, which can be used in the real world.
The effect of the anesthetic was very fast, and soon after the narrator was forced to swallow it, he rolled his eyes and fell to the ground, no different from the corpse, believing that if he woke up after a while to find that the cultural relics had not been stolen, and then looked at the thousands of euros in his pocket that could not explain the source to the police, he would consciously take the initiative to keep the secret for Lao Wang.
After Lao Wang finished dealing with the commentator, he looked up at the guard's duty room, where Takenaka was coming out, one-on-one, which was arranged in the team channel just now.
"Mary, we're going to start touching the target now, don't act on your librarianship, I need you to confirm the item number. Lao Wang explained to Mary, pinched the padlock of the outer plastic box, unscrewed it directly and opened the door of the box, so that the wooden box was directly exposed to him.
A smell of rotting wood came, and I don't know if it was the smell of the container itself, or if the wooden goods inside had rotted.
Lao Wang coughed softly and transmitted a voice to Mary: "What is the commodity deck you just said, what is the item number?"
"B25, the meaning of box twenty-five on the ground floor. Mary replied.
Lao Wang glanced at the cargo box, luckily, the B25 position was conspicuous, and it was quickly found, he easily lifted the lid of the cargo box, and the decayed but neatly stacked wooden slats appeared in front of him, which should be the deck sold as a commodity.
There is no need to hesitate, these rotten wood will not bite, Lao Wang decisively put his hand on these wooden slats, and at the moment of contact, the space prompt also arrived:
"The Invincible Uncle Team of the Selector Team successfully completed the interpretation of the second step of the clue and entered the final path of the trial world to send the clue...
The selection team is asked to complete the following three questions within 36 hours, and after completing the selection, board a replica of the Dutch East India Company sailing ship 'Amsterdam' anchored in Canal Harbor and enter the world of trials through the cargo hold.
Please note that as long as the selection is completed, the Picker can enter the Trials World at any time and get a pre-preparation time (36 - time spent on selection), during which the Pickers can perform normal activities in the Trials World, but cannot accept the Trials World quests released by the space.
The selection questions for the Selector Squad's Invincible Uncle Team are:
1. Each member of the team is asked to choose a seafaring skill that is limited to the world of this trial.
2. Each member of the team is asked to choose a sailing prop that is limited to the world of this trial.
3. Ask the team to collectively choose the initial identity to enter the world of trials.
Details about the optional items will be embedded in the main information column of the selection as extended information, so please read carefully. β
"Is this the end?is it that simple?" Lao Wang is a person who is afraid of random space, and he is ready to enter the world of trials with great difficulties, but now he suddenly finds that the space is very interesting, and he is really a little surprised that he does not embarrass himself.
"I think so, when has the space been so kind. Mary had also heard the spatial information just now, and this time she was in the same opinion as her old Wang, and was muttering because the last clue was too simple.
"Uncle and Miss Mary are right, I don't think random space will be so kind. Takenaka also followed.
"Let's gather and think about it, Mary will come first, we are lucky, the 'Amsterdam' is on our side, parked in the waters outside the Dutch Maritime Museum, we have made our choices, and we will soon be able to enter the cabin. Lao Wang greeted.
"Here it is. Mary replied succinctly.
Thirty minutes later, the family of three reunited at the OnePlus restaurant outside the Dutch Maritime Museum, now they are only faced with the problem of choice, the team has relatively enough time, and there is no need to run around in any specific place, so they chose the most conventional team meeting form of the Invincible Uncle Team - eating and chatting.
The restaurant's signature is the authentic local Dutch flavor, Dutch pancakes, herring and croquettes and other signature dishes of the windmill country are placed on the table, and the selectors consume a lot of energy, even if they stand still, they need a lot of heat to support, and as for Takenaka's crazy brain, the amount of food is even more amazing.
"Bamboo, Mary, I thought about it for a while, and I think that the arrangement of the space will not be so meaningless and kind, pre-preparation time, literally, do you want us to prepare something?" Lao Wang was unexpectedly very accustomed to the taste of this foreign cuisine, tore half a Dutch pancake and chewed it, and asked his team members for advice.
"I'm my uncle's idea, there must be some purpose for random space to let us in. Takenaka replied, reaching out and grabbing a herring, and then tilting his head and putting it in his mouth, not that he was indecent, but in the Netherlands, the half-lived herring was so enjoyable to eat, the little guy was from an islander, and the half-born fish was very good for him.
Mary ate a lot, but her demeanor was much more elegant than that of the two men, and she took a bite of the baked potatoes with fried meat balls and said: "We all know that there must be a purpose, but we lack the necessary information now, and if we want me to say, we can only go in first, no matter what, since the definition of space is the pre-preparation time, the more abundant the better." β
"Well, bamboo, you look at the skills and items, what are the suitable options. Lao Wang said to Takenaka.
"Yes, uncle, I have already screened it, I have briefly predicted the situation we may encounter in this world, and selected the seafaring skill surveying, steering skills, and naval combat artillery. Takenaka called up the skill information to the other two people: "As for the selection of HNA items, I picked the Seagod Sacrifice, the Ship Song Brief Score, and the Witch Elixir, Uncle and Miss Mary to see how it goes." β
"The seamanship is very good, and if we need to command the ship, it is a must, after all, although we are the selectors, no one really knows how to control the ancient sailing ship more than 300 years ago. Mary agreed.
"Bamboo, why are these props all magic-related?" asked Wang.
"Uncle, I think so, about the technical props of navigation, we have prepared a lot, such as the lime juice recipe or high-precision compass and sextant, our procurement of space has been enough to be used in navigation, what we lack is those ethereal legends of the age of sailing, so in the choice of props, we are biased towards magic, in the choice of skills we prefer navigation technology, with the purchase of props, I think it is the most reasonable. Takenaka explained seriously.
"No problem, bamboo has always been a worry-free child in the matter of choosing things. Lao Wang said with a smile.
Mary was more impressed by Takenaka, the world cursed from the blood source, when the two were not official teammates, and there was no objection to the choice of items and navigation skills, and after carefully reading the instructions, the beauty raised her eyebrows and added: "But don't forget that there is also the identity of the three of us, how should we enter the world of trials, pirates?"
Takenaka shook his head and said, "There are only pirates, and the last thing you should choose is the best!"
This is not because Takenaka refutes Mary's face, but because choosing the identity of a pirate is indeed too disadvantageous.
Takenaka explained to Mary and Wang: "Probably because the life of pirates is exciting and dramatic, and there are many legends about pirates on the sea, so the stories of pirates have been beautified and artistically processed, and have been put on the screen in large quantities, so that pirates are very deeply rooted in the hearts of the people."
But in fact this is not the case, the real pirate life is often not so wild and romantic, first of all, out of the well-known national pirate organization Barbary Pirates, most of the pirates are stragglers, their ships are very backward equipment, supply difficulties, and lack of maintenance, they can only do bullying and weak things on the sea, when they encounter the enemy, not to mention the frontal navy, even the armed merchant ships with a little firepower can hang them and fight, but it cannot be said that pirates are useless, they are often brave and desperate, plagiarism and good fighting, in the broadside battle, there is a high chance of victoryγ
In addition, the identity of pirates is illegal, which in the era of maritime geographical discovery, greatly limited their space for activities, except for a few limited pirate ports, pirate ships can not anchor at all, even if they rob the materials, the ability to cash is very poor, otherwise, why do pirates like to find a place to bury treasure? is because they can't even sell the stolen goods, so compared with them, if we want to take the route of sea plunder, the state's legalized pirates-privateers are the better choice. β
"What about Bamboo, so that we choose to enter the world of trials as privateers?" asked Wang.
"No, uncle, my suggestion is, let's be honest as legitimate merchants, I carefully looked at the identities provided by the space, and after choosing, you can also get the corresponding aspects of the ability to improve, such as the pirate's melee attack, the navy's artillery damage or the merchant's profit margin, etc., but the increase rate is less than ten percent, in terms of the increase rate, the merchant is the most beneficial. Takenaka let out a sigh of relief, ended the phased explanation, looked at Lao Wang and Mary, and waited for questions.
The meaning of Takenaka's sentence Lao Wang understands that among all professions, only businessmen can obtain massive profits, and maximize the benefits that can be obtained by means of almost infinite expansion of the base.
In the world of trials, although money is only an elemental type of item, and its role in the eyes of the selector is small, when its number reaches a certain level, its role should not be underestimated.
"Then what if we lose in battle?" Mary was still a little worried about the trial world, which had always been based on combat.
"The scope of this improvement is limited, and the purpose of space design is to make this improvement effective, but there is not too much disparity, and I think the difference can be made up with money. Takenaka explained, and Mary blinked, also understanding Takenaka's train of thought, and nodded to indicate that there was no doubt.
"It's decided, I'll immediately submit the choice to the space, and then enter the trial world as soon as possible, no matter what tricks the random space is playing this time, we will enter the space first, even if it is reaction time, it will be sufficient. Lao Wang concluded.
The three of them settled the rest of the meal and followed the crowd of tourists to the Dutch Maritime Museum again, Lao Wang's arrangements for the docent were very effective, and so far, the museum has not issued an alarm or closed notice.
The "Amsterdam" sailing ship on display here is actually a replica of the historic Amsterdam, a sailing ship belonging to the Dutch East India Company, which sailed from Amsterdam to Java in 1749 loaded with a large amount of cloth, wine and silverware.
Unfortunately, on the ship's maiden voyage, it was doomed, first with a fatal epidemic that took the lives of 50 crew members, and then, because of rumors that the ship was cursed, the sailors staged a riot against the captain, forcing the captain to dock, and finally, on the way to the shore, the ship hit the soft soil layer of the seabed, and the sea water quickly poured in, and the "Amsterdam" sank to the bottom of the sea with people's dreams of wealth.
In addition to replicating the details of the original ship one-to-one, there are also a group of actors performing retro performances on the ship, repeating the life of the sailors on the original ship.
There is a one-hour break between 3:30 and 4:30 p.m., and at this time, there are no performances on the sailboats, so there are very few tourists, and there are basically no people.
This kind of opportunity is exactly what Lao Wang and the others need, and the three of them took this opportunity to sneak into the ship quietly, all the way down, and go straight to the warehouse.
After repeatedly making sure that there was no one around, Lao Wang submitted his choice to the space, and a strange feeling hit, even through the wooden plank, Lao Wang could still feel that the warm atmosphere outside the original ship was gone, replaced by a bustling hustle and bustle.
Looking at the wall of the warehouse again, it has become a long-term use in everyone's unconsciousness, and there is a slight shaking feeling under his feet, Lao Wang took a deep breath, this is a unique breath of the era of savage growth.
