Excited, Lilith and Gonder left together, and Bai Qi took out Captain Dubo's letter and read it. ¥f

Most of these letters were business correspondence, but one of them was written by a man named Will from Blackwater to Captain Dubo, and the two parties agreed to trade two hundred miles downstream of the city of Heras on the Saluo River on the 7th of the next month.

Looking at the letter, Bai Qi fell into deep thought.

At the same time, in Yasuo City, on the street where the space soldiers came, in a simple stone house, four space soldiers sat around Mu Dun by the fire that had been extinguished, and a tall and burly man with a square face sat on the edge of a simple and dirty wooden bed with a golden sword, looking like a mighty lion.

The lion-like man held a terrifying ghost-headed knife in one hand and leaned on the ground, while the other hand played with a blood-red token, and his face was gloomy as water.

This person is none other than Tiger Tooth, the head of the Tiger Tooth Regiment.

A man with a pale face who was as thin as a hemp pole by the fire pit looked at the tiger's gloomy face with some fear, and said hesitantly: "Boss, the brothers have combed the space soldiers who have descended in this city several times, and there is indeed no such person, is it that when we entered the space, that person happened to be separated from us?" ”

The tiger sneered: "How can there be such a coincidence, it must be that the other party has been prepared, and as soon as he enters the space, he immediately quietly leaves this city-state, this is not a difficult thing, a stealth scroll can do it." ”

At the edge of the fire, another tall and burly man asked, "Boss, what should we do then?" Why don't you use the Glory Hunt Order now? ”

This man is even bigger than a tiger, even more than the average height of the world's indigenous warriors, but compared to a tiger, he is like a cow and a lion, although he is tall, but he lacks the majestic momentum of a tiger.

The tiger glanced at him with the eyes of an idiot, and said coldly: "If we had woken up earlier, of course I would have used the chase order without hesitation, chased him and killed him, but now that a whole day has passed, that person has already fled far away, even if the chase order is used, what can I do with the ten minute lock time?" And he's on the run now, and even if we know where he is, there's no certainty that he'll be there in the future, so there's no point in using a kill warrant. ”

The tiger's words made everyone fall silent again, and finally the burly man couldn't help but ask, "Boss, what should we do now?" ”

The tiger raised his eyes and glanced at him, and said, "Wait, wait for ten days, wait until he has settled in a city and has achieved certain results, and then use the chase order, let him either give up ten days of hard work, or wait for my pursuit!" ”

Speaking of this, the tiger received the order of glory chase and said categorically: "Starting tomorrow, everyone will start to complete the task wholeheartedly." ”

……

At about four o'clock in the morning the next day, Bai Qi was awakened by a knock on the door, and it was Gunde, who told Bai Qi that the port of Hera was ten miles ahead, and Bai Qi ordered him to drop anchor and stop the ship, and to gather all the crew.

Ten minutes later, Gunder came to report that all the crew had assembled.

Bai Qi walked out of the captain's room, and on the deck, the nine crew members all looked at him with trepidation.

Father and son Bird and Gunder stood aside, not with the crew.

Bai Qi glanced at all the crew members coldly, and said: "You should thank me for my kindness, although I can't trust you, but I have no intention of killing you, the port of Hera City is ahead, you immediately leave my ship on a life raft." ”

Hearing Bai Qi's words, the panicked sailors all showed a look of surprise, and the father and son of Gunder and Bird also showed a look of relief.

This unexpected news even made the sailors a little suspicious, and everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to take the lead in making rash moves.

Seeing this, Gunder shouted loudly: "Bean, strong, you two go and lay down the life raft, and the others prepare to board the raft." ”

Hearing Gunde's order, the sailors quickly sprang into action.

The life raft crashed into the water, and the sailors skilfully slipped off the cable.

Watching the life raft go away, Bai Qi ordered Gunder to turn the bow of the boat and go down the water.

According to Bai Qi's approximate estimates, the width of the river is even more than 20 kilometers, and the river flow speed is extremely slow, even if it goes downstream, the speed is not fast, and it must be supplemented by oars to meet the navigation requirements. But on the other hand, it is very difficult for boats to swim up this big river.

Twenty oarsmen rowed by day and by night by current, and after three days the ship finally reached the vicinity of the city-state of Leony.

This ship was robbed, no matter what Bai Qi's reason was, this kind of behavior could not be tolerated by any city-state, as long as the news spread, they would be treated as water thieves if they entered any city-state.

Although at this time, the news of the interception of the merchant ship of the Rummel family should not have reached Leoni City, and Bai Qi could have allowed the ship to dock at the dock of Leoni City, but he did not do so, but first asked Gunde to park the ship on a water surface more than 20 kilometers upstream that Leoni said.

Bai Qi returned to the captain's room and tried to contact Adrian with the communicator, the light curtain above the communicator flashed slightly, Adrian's face appeared in the light curtain, and she couldn't help complaining: "Why did you get there?" ”

Looking at Adrian's face in this light curtain, Bai Qi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said: "It's hard to put into words, I came to the southernmost city of Yasuo, and when I escaped, I got into some trouble on the spur of the moment, and finally arrived in Sumeia City, but I got on a thief ship, and I could only kill the captain and rob the boat, and I am now on the river twenty kilometers away from Leoni City." ”

Adrian was suddenly full of surprise and asked, "You robbed the search boat?" How big is the ship? ”

Bai Qi said: "A medium-sized merchant ship, about twenty-five meters long and five meters wide. ”

Adrian said, "That's enough, you shouldn't have received the basic task yet, right?" ”

Bai Qi said: "I went out of the city incognito immediately after I came, of course I didn't take the basic task, what task?" ”

Adrian said: "The basic mission is called' The content is that the northern steppes are now suffering from a severe drought, and the orc tribes on the steppe are ready to move, and it is very likely that they will attack the Arare River Valley this year, in order to enter the human territory and plunder, so the various city-states have begun to prepare for war in an all-round way, and if we space soldiers want to participate in this war, we must obtain a certain status, enter the council of elders of the city-states, and gain the right to speak, and it just so happens that the city-states have issued many meritorious tasks and basic tasks to clear the surrounding threats in order to prepare for war. The 'nobility' wants us to have enough merit within three months to become elders and participate in the decision-making of war. ”

Speaking of this, she paused, and said: "The biggest threat to the city-state, the highest merit is the fish-man tribe that threatens the waterway, but because most of the fish-man tribes are distributed on both sides of the river bank far away from the city, it is very difficult to take the land route, and by water, the boat cannot withstand the attack of the fish-man at all, once the boat is broken and falls into the water, it is the home of the fish-man, which is very dangerous." Big ships are not only expensive, but they are simply not available. If you have a big boat, then we can go and clean up the fishmen. ”

Bai Qi thought for a while and said, "Very good, you and Barian will search the boat first, and we will talk when we meet." ”

Ending the call, Bai Qi asked Gunde to sail the ship ten kilometers downstream of the city-state of Leony.

There were no human city-states downstream of Leony, so the river downstream was deserted.

Two hours later, as it got dark, a canoe slowly approached the cargo ship as it went down the river.

Two people sat in the canoe, and they climbed onto the cargo ship along the cable.

Bai Qi looked at Adrian and Barrian, and suddenly sighed a little, it was really not easy for him to come all the way, and he was in constant trouble.

The two were invited into the captain's room, and the three of them exchanged experiences during this time.

Barian was born in the city-state of Stia, the closest to the city-state of Leoni, and the first to arrive.

The city-state where Adrian was born, although it was also on the banks of the Sara River, was located upstream, and it was only two days before Bai Qi.

Andre and Donnie, who tracked down Barrian, were both born in the city-state of Stia, and Barrian, like Bai Qi, left the city-state of Stya with an invisibility scroll as soon as he arrived, and went down the river on a cargo ship, and was the first to reach the city-state of Leoni
