"This ...... How is this possible? Vincent looked at the calculations in his hand with a look of disbelief, "How did that ship manage to maintain its top speed all the time on so many voyages?" ”

"If the above record is not falsified, it should have sailed more than twice as fast as the merchant ships of the same era, which is also a bit too exaggerated." Billy also said that he should be the most vocal of the four, having spent half of his life on the sea, and knows that there are many factors that affect the speed of a ship, and that even if the sail and the person at the helm are skilled, they cannot control the changes in the natural environment.

"So not only do we not know where the people on that ship are going, but we also have the question of why that ship is going so fast?" Anne raised an eyebrow.

"It's also possible that these two issues are the same problem." Zhang Heng patted the young ship doctor on the shoulder, "Can you translate these three notes, especially the things on that love poetry book?" ”

The latter nodded, "No problem, I haven't had much else to do lately anyway." ”

"Good, but for now our main focus is on the Spear of the Goddess." Zhang Heng said, "We should be very close to each other, let's raise the top sail again when the weather is clear." ”

"Understood."

…………

The empty Clark ship mysteriously appeared in the rainstorm and mysteriously disappeared when the weather was about to clear, and the sailors in charge of searching for the target climbed to the lookout after the rain stopped, but it was nowhere to be seen in the vast sea.

It was like a ghost, appearing and leaving silently, and if it weren't for the two boxes of silverware on the ship, everyone couldn't help but wonder if it was just a dream.

Zhang Heng also carefully inspected the two boxes of silverware later, but like the ring and necklace, he didn't get the prompt to get the game props, and he also made reasonable use of the rules of the game, after all, judging from the situation on that boat, the people above were likely to encounter some supernatural phenomenon, and if they encountered something unexpected and were also brought to the ship, it was likely to cause trouble to the Jackdaw, but the final result was somewhat unexpected for him.

Zhang Heng's investigation of the incident on the Clark ship was not simply out of curiosity, he did not forget what the Tang costume monster had said to him before, and the latter had told him that as the game progressed, he would gradually come into contact with the truth of the world.

Ever since he got the double-scale watch for 24 extra hours and started playing games every month, life has gradually gone off the normal track, at first he thought it was the real world that had changed, but with the advent of Morlesby, especially after witnessing the engulfing wall, he gradually realized that maybe it was not reality that had changed, but the way he saw the world.

Maybe those things have been there for a long time, but few people have noticed what they really look like.

The props in Zhang Heng's hands, in addition to the [Moment of Shadow] and [Key of Shadow], can be found on Google or Baidu pages related legends and stories, which may not be a coincidence.

Although he has obtained some supernatural items in the previous rounds of the game, he has rarely had the opportunity to get in touch with the stories behind those things, and if he can figure out what happened on the Clark ship, maybe he can also have a better understanding of the real world, know what those things are, where they come from, and what their purpose is.

However, he did not forget his main task of going to sea this time, although the two boxes of silverware were also worth a little money, but there was not much left in the hands of 62 people, especially after the victory on the first voyage, perhaps it invisibly raised everyone's expectations for this voyage, so now the top priority is to take the Spear of the Goddess first.

Twenty-two days had passed since the Jackdaw's departure, and this time they were lucky, during which they also encountered several merchant ships, but Zhang Heng did not order an attack in order not to delay time, so on the afternoon of the twenty-second day, the Jackdaw finally found its hunting target on the sea.

But the current situation is somewhat peculiar.

"It should be the Vida of Sam, the Black Prince, in front, it's troublesome, they also rushed to hear the news." Billy Road.

The Black Prince's Vader is the same pirate ship as Nassau and Blackbeard's Sea Lion, and it is also one of the most powerful pirate groups in this area, and in terms of ship performance, Vida is still above the Sea Lion.

First launched in London two years ago, the ship takes its name from the West African trading city of Ouidah, and is the best slave ship in the Atlantic.

Captain Lawrence had confidently said that he would make a lot of money for the investors in the future, but on the first voyage he was dumpled by the pirate group led by the Black Prince, and finally had to choose to surrender, although he was finally saved, but then the Vader became Sam's flagship.

Billy recognises the Whydah and turns the bronze telescope to the other side, and there is a pirate ship to the northwest of the Spear, which is why the Whydah did not attack.

Billy focused on the black flag raised by the other party, but the pattern on it was something he had never seen before, "This ship...... It doesn't look like it's from Nassau. ”

Nassau is the most famous pirate port in the Caribbean, but that doesn't mean all pirates come from here, and there are pirates of all sizes active outside of New Providence, and they occasionally come across them while sailing.

The Vader and the other unknown pirate ship also spotted the new predator at this time, but the Goddess Spear did not move, presumably because the two pirate ships and the three pirate ships were no longer any different from them.

However, no one thought that the whaling ship was ready to be captured, and they were clearly waiting for their chance, and the more chaotic the situation at this time, the better it would be for them.

The current situation is a bit tricky.

The three ships surrounded the Goddess Spear from three directions, and at the same time they were also wary of each other, but their respective psychological activities were different, the guns on the unknown pirate ship were inferior to the Vida in terms of number and power, and they were actually at a disadvantage in the confrontation before, but the Vader had to consider the possibility of letting the Goddess Spear escape after the battle between the two sides, and they were relieved to see that a third party joined them at this time.

However, when he thought that he had another competitor, his mood suddenly became complicated.
