Chapter 924: USS Liberty
Time flies quickly, and if it weren't for his pocket watch telling him that it was already twelve o'clock, he wouldn't see any difference between this pier and the daytime - this is also the benefit of the underworld, if the yin spirit is not bored, he can work every day, and the GDP generated far exceeds that of the yang world. After all, they don't feel tired either.
Just after twelve o'clock, there was a loud "bang" on the surface of the sea, and a huge wooden boat, like a membrane on the surface of the sea, rose from below. Countless seawater waterfalls flow down from above,
Qin Ye silently looked at this sailboat, which was a typical Spanish galleon most popular in the Age of Discovery. The body is made of pitch-black solid wood, and the huge tail tower is trimmed with brass, and the appearance of a powerful ghost is carved on it, with a total of three floors of nearly 15 meters, which looks as luxurious as a castle. The rugged hull is inlaid with two layers of cold-glowing decks, and the sails have a total of four masts and thirteen sides. The bow of the ship houses a beluga whale statue.
In the famous Age of Discovery in the 16th and 7th centuries, the Spanish conquistadors conquered the indigenous peoples of South America with a large number of these ships. The ship was even more different, its surface was covered with shells, traces of seaweed, and the sails were so tattered that it was impossible to even see the patterns on it. The whole ship has a taste of time.
Qin Ye glanced at it twice and retracted his gaze, he was very satisfied.
Although the Spanish galleons were created by improving the new hulls of the Carrac giants that were too bulky, there were also shortcomings due to the large size of the hull and lack of flexibility, which would become extremely obvious once the ship turned and went against the wind, which was why Spain and Britain were battered by the British Royal Navy for supremacy at sea. However, its merits are also incomparable.
This is the famous "big ship" type of the Age of Discovery, the whole ship can carry more than 150 crew members, and the heavy hull makes it a castle on the sea - he has seen a total of more than 30 cannon ports on both sides, although in the underworld, the power of the cannon is similar to that of the Ming Dynasty......
But it represents its stability. And for such a long journey, what he wants is stability!
Originally, he hesitated between walking from the Yin Division and walking from the Yang Realm, but after listening to Rebis finish speaking, he still decided to go from the Yin Division. After all, the North American sun has sensed something, on guard against possible conflicts at any time. Airplanes, trains, all under surveillance, if he is discovered, it is difficult to explain to humans, it is better to choose a suitable path from the underworld.
If you are discovered, you can move your hands freely, right?
Whoa...... When the water on the hull had been completely poured into the sea, the door of the cabin finally opened, and a man wearing a pirate tricorn hat, an iron hook in his right hand, and a long black robe with a gold-trimmed placket stepped out first.
He looked to be in his forties, his fiery red hair rising back uninhibitedly, and his face covered in scars. Behind him, dozens of seafarers went to their respective positions and began to lower the rope ladder, the boat.
On the entire dock, Qin Ye was the only one alone. The tricorne-hat pirate glanced at him and frowned slightly.
Topper hat, black trench coat, silver mask, white gloves. There is even a gentleman's staff in his hand. Standing straight in the sea breeze, the rough waves of the big ship did not make the other party move a step. The whole body is wrapped so tightly that you can't even see the color of the other person's skin. It's just that when he looked over, the other party's snow-white gloves gently pinched the brim of his hat and bowed slightly.
On the other side, he smelled trouble.
"Are you waiting for me?" The man in the three-cornered hat walked to the bow of the boat, stepped on the guardrail, and shouted against the light.
Qin Ye said lightly: "Rebis asked me to wait for you here." Rick. You can call me Q. Rick snorted and tilted his head, and a small boat plunged into the sea. However, as soon as he turned his head, he suddenly gasped, his body trembled, and he unconsciously took a few steps back, looking ahead vigilantly.
Right there, Q was standing in front of him at some point, less than three meters away from him!
Impermanence...... Impermanence above! Even the judges!
Just now...... It's flying, right? It's incredible!
"Please follow me." Rick looked at him deeply and tilted his head towards the cabin.
Qin Ye followed him in. Observing the cabin casually all the way, it was surprising that Rick turned out to be a rather life-like person. There is no strange smell of the wine bottles thrown around by the indecent fleet, and there is no strange smell, but a light fragrance.
Follow him all the way to the innermost part of the cabin, push open the door, and the captain's room will appear in front of you.
There is nothing special, the only thing that catches the eye is a gorgeous shield like a work of art behind the solid wood table and chairs. The head of a lion, with its mane spread out like a cloud of smoke, forming a pattern all around. Two Western swords crossed and pinned to the back. There is a small raised line underneath: Gift to Red Eagle Navy Seventh Fleet Rick. Arthur.
There are bookcases all around, and it looks like it has an elegant atmosphere. After the guest and host sat down, Rick looked at Qin Ye deeply, and no one spoke first. After a few seconds, Rick smiled, "At this time...... There are still people who dare to go to the New World, this yincha, I admire your courage. ”
He raised three fingers: "On this ship, there are three rules, and although you may well be an earl, I think I must give priority to them. If you can't accept it, I won't give you a ride. ”
Qin Ye nodded slightly. Rick then said: "First, don't ask about the specific route, don't meddle in everything on the ship, please trust us." We are professionals. ”
"Yes."
"Secondly, I will not ask you who you are, where you are going, or what you mean, and likewise, do not tell any seafarer about this. When you get off the ship, it has nothing to do with the ship. You are not free to vent your anger at us, or hunt us down. Of course, this is the case where one or two articles are satisfied. We've had a situation where a viscount thought it was us leaking a secret because of a failed operation. We also do not accept similar claims. ”
Qin Ye nodded again.
"Thirdly, these days, unless we tell you, please only move around in the cabin." He leaned back in his chair, picked up a bottle of wine next to him, pried it open with his thumb, poured it into a goblet, and said in a deep voice: "Our identity is special, you don't know who is watching us and where ......"
Without waiting for him to finish, Qin Ye said hoarsely: "You used to be a navy?" ”
Rick nodded and took a sip of the amber liquid: "So, I can pass through the gates of the New World without being examined." Do you think this shield is something that every veteran has in his or her country? I once made it to the position of regimental commander in the Red Eagle Army. Most of the Navy will give me face. ”
Very good......
Qin Ye didn't want to make any extraneous troubles, but this was not enough to reassure him, he continued to ask, "You can't ask about the route, so can I ask where to stay?" ”
"Yes." Rick shook his glass: "Corresponds to the California Peninsula in the sun, La Paz City." ”
At the moment when this word was spoken, Qin Ye's eyes under the mask were raised, and his heart accelerated for no reason.
Omen of danger!
He had appeared twice, and cultivators of his level had already had a certain warning of danger, but some of them were very light and some were very heavy. Something that could make him feel some palpitations across the Pacific Ocean...... It's not easy!
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing that Qin Ye suddenly clutched his chest and his body twitched, Rick immediately looked at the other party vigilantly, and his hand had already been placed on the lock ring of the hidden compartment under the table.
"It's dangerous." Qin Ye deliberately made his voice hoarse: "Extremely dangerous...... Don't ask me how I know. You might think of it as celestial induction. ”
Rick seemed to scoff, but didn't speak. It is as if he is discerning whether the other party's words are true or not.
Celestial induction?
That's something that only a marquis deserves!
There's a marquis on my ship? It's simply impossible! When does that noble yin need to take our boat? They have a fixed hidden route in their hands!
However, the prudence he has cultivated all year round did not immediately deny it. Instead, he took the globe on the table, turned around, and pointed to another place, "Eureka Harbor?" ”
As soon as the words fell, a sharp palpitation swept through Qin Ye again.
Across the coast, he could hear the word danger in the wind.
But...... It dawned on him that this was most likely not the danger of this place. But......
The whole of America, it's hell!
No matter where you land, it's the same!
"Try somewhere else." He spoke quietly.
Rick wasn't annoyed at all, the sea was vast, and he had seen too many mysteries. Instead, he lit a cut cigar and took a deep breath, this time, pointing farther away.
Alaska Peninsula.
North America of North America.
In the same way, the feeling of palpitations not only did not weaken, but intensified!
Really......
Sure enough, it's not the city's problem...... But the whole of North America will have a great crisis!
The boundary between life and death has been broken?
The queen of Hades began to devour the Yin Spirit desperately?
An all-round war between the Holy See and the ghosts?
He didn't know...... All he knew was that he ...... Be fast enough!
Almost before that happens, grab your things and go. Otherwise...... I'm afraid I'm going to get into this quagmire.
As long as I can be fast enough, my teammates' question marks won't be able to catch up with me......
"It's not the city's problem." He finally spoke: "It's the problem of the cursed land itself...... It's in La Paz. Everything else is pretty much the same. ”
He stood up and did what he did when he came to North America. Whether to act in the underworld or the yang, he hasn't had time to think about it, these few days are just the right time for him to decide.
Just as he was about to go out, he suddenly paused, turned his back and said, "La Paz...... It used to be the Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean Sea. Are you sure you won't be searched by the Caribbean Triumvirate? Your position doesn't seem to be right with them, right? ”
"Don't worry." Rick laughed, "Although I haven't walked this route in two years. But the Gulf of California is the Red Hawks' lair. I know the Caribbean Triumvirate, their nest is in Panama City, the entire Gulf of Mexico, the Greater Andres Islands in the Caribbean, the west side of Mexico, New Orleans in the south of the United States, Florida are among the opposing forces, and part of South America, which can be said to occupy the most important north-south hub in the Americas. But ......"
He took a puff of blue-blue smoke, extinguished his cigar, and sneered, "It's been a hundred years before their hands reach the Gulf of California!" ”
