Section 31: Mane, the new captain of the Little Bird
The deck of the Little Bird was packed with sailors.
"Please give way, okay?" said Shiraya in front of him for the horse behind him.
There are a lot of people, and it is very difficult for Bai Bud to open the way.
From time to time, someone would turn around and glare at Bai Ya angrily, or open their mouths to scold, but after seeing the bronze level mustache again, ordinary pirates would stop and take the initiative to retreat a small way.
As a result, the white buds and mustaches slowly passed through the crowd.
Bai Ya was about to squeeze to the front of the crowd, but he was pulled by Suma's clothes.
Suma said: "Don't be so showy, it's good here." We were able to see clearly without standing in the first row. ”
Mango walked with a strong stride, and after a dozen paces, stood on the bow mast of the Bird's deck.
"I am Lion. ”
"Once the first mate on the Justice, now the captain on the Birdie. ”
"I don't care who you are or where you come from, now that you are on my ship, you must obey my orders!"
Mane Ge pointed three times: "He is our first mate." ”
Bai Ya was not surprised at all when he heard this appointment. But many outsiders are very surprised.
Although Sandao is a black iron cultivator, he is a goblin after all.
Normally, on a ship dominated by the Terrans, the status of the black iron goblins like the Three Swords is equal to that of the Bronze Terrans.
People have a very negative opinion of the goblin race.
The sailors couldn't help but stir slightly at the thought of being under the command of the goblins in the future.
Suma was also surprised, and he was more excited than ordinary people.
He stood behind Bai Ya and smiled at the moment: "Thank me, I brought you to a good place." ”
"What do you mean, senior?" Bai Ya turned his head and asked.
Suma smiled meaningfully, but didn't answer. He didn't want to tell Bai Ya the secret of his bribery of the three knives, and keeping a sense of mystery to his younger brother was very helpful in maintaining his authority.
Then the next moment, Mango began his inaugural speech.
"You don't know much about me. ”
"I'm a man who loves war!"
Suma: ???
Mango continued, "I like the battle of annihilation, and I like to see the enemy completely wiped out by our army. ”
"I like cavalry combat, and I enjoy two cavalry fighting against each other, swords and swords, people on their backs, and the winner is king. ”
"I like ambush warfare. When I see the enemy entering my carefully arranged ambush circle without noticing, and when we attack, their panicked expressions, I get endless joy. ”
Suma: ......
The bronze thief subconsciously covered his heart, what was going on with this not-so-good feeling?
Mango raised his voice: "Now, I'm starting to like artillery battles. I fell in love with the sound of the cannon blast and I enjoyed the wonderful taste of gunpowder, which was more delicious than a cigar. I watched the shells hit the enemy ships, watched their decks and shipboards smashed by the shells, watched their masts topple faster and faster, watched their sailors be torn apart, and my blood was filled with excitement in my whole body. ”
"And my favorite thing is the broadside. When I rush onto enemy ships with my sword in hand, when I cut down one enemy after another who intercepts me, my blade cuts through their throats, pierces their hearts, watches their hot blood splatter, hears their dying roars or screams. What a beautiful sound!"
Suma: !!
He looked at Mango with a look of enjoyment, and couldn't help but turn pale and break out in a cold sweat on his head.
"He's even more violent than Captain Ryūfu!"
"He's a war maniac. ”
Suma finally realizes that the decision he made was far from being as correct as he had previously thought.
Manego's face changed: "And what I hate the most is weakness." The weakness of being cut down by the enemy, trampled under the feet, trembling with the sword, the weakness of timidity. I don't allow you to have such weakness! Whoever wants to escape from the battle, or wants to mess around, then I will come in with a white knife and go out with a red knife! Give him a decent look!"
Suma opened his mouth slightly, unable to speak.
"Follow me!" Mango raised his arms.
"I will rush to the front, lead you, slaughter every enemy, and occupy every ship!"
"Let's build a great feat at sea!!"
Ulla!
The sailors were encouraged by the enthusiastic speech and raised their arms and shouted.
Suma raised his arms and shouted weakly.
On the Justice, the knight boy sits in the captain's quarters, looking out through an open window.
Many sailors also gathered on the first deck to watch the movement on the Little Bird.
The knock on the door was accompanied by the voice of the beard: "Lord Longfu, do you have time?" ”
With the boy's permission, Ayosu pushed the door in, then turned and closed the door gently.
The knight boy had already turned on the alchemy artifact radio box, which limited the rest of the conversation between the two to this room. 16 reading
"My lord, I have found a way to absorb soul crystals. "Greybeard brings good news.
Directly absorbing soul crystals is too inefficient and has a huge waste of resources. And not everyone has the ability to absorb soul crystals.
Therefore, since obtaining a large number of soul crystals, Cangsu began to study how to better absorb soul crystals with everyone's expectations.
After so many days, Cangsu finally got gratifying results.
"This is the alchemy circle absorbed by the soul crystal. Abarsu handed the boy a scroll.
The scroll depicts a rather complex diagram of the magic circle, with straight and interlaced lines, and the boy is dazzled by it.
"I studied the books I got in the secret chambers under the sea, combined with the works of the alchemists I got from the Mystery Island. Having failed a few times, this circle is now able to benefit ordinary people. ”
"I've tried it myself and it's been a huge improvement mentally. ”
The knight boy nodded, and did not hesitate to praise: "Very good, old scholar, you have never disappointed. It just so happens that tonight we are going to dock at the island to rest. Gather everyone and let's taste the soul crystal together. ”
Cang Xu was slightly stunned, and then said, "My lord, do you really want everyone to consume soul crystals?"
The knight boy nodded: "Of course, everyone is their own people, and we have a common secret to escape from the Mystery Island." The reason why these soul crystals can be obtained is because of the consumption of the forbidden scroll. These scrolls are exchanged for public property. Soul Crystal ...... This kind of good thing should be shared by everyone. ”
"My lord, I admire your justice and tolerance. However...... I beg your pardon for being rude. Cang Xu bowed slightly.
"Say it. Don't be scrupled. ”
"First of all, a lot of us are ordinary people. It was a waste to invest such a precious resource as a soul crystal on them. Their bloodline limits their future achievements, and no matter how much they use, they are just ordinary people with strong spirits. ”
"Secondly, we can let them choose for themselves. We can advocate for trading, so that ordinary people can sell their share of the soul crystals to the transcendents. In this way, ordinary people can get the money they can use. And the transcendents will ascend even higher. The strength of the entire team will also be greatly improved. In the future, you will be more sure of fighting, and you will be able to get more loot, forming a more favorable positive cycle. ”
"Last ......"
"Your Excellency. Greybeard stepped forward and approached the desk, turning slightly, and gesturing with his gaze to the bird outside the window.
The noise on the Birdie was much quieter, but it was still heard.
Cang Xu's face was full of solemnity: "I always think that the strongest person in the team should be the adult, and you are the safest." Mane ...... He's a little stronger. ”
The boy raised his eyebrows: "You doubt him?"
Cang Xu shook his head slightly: "It's not so much suspicion, but jealousy." ”
"He's a champion at the pinnacle of silver. ”
"If he were to attack at close range, I wouldn't be able to cast even a single spell, and he would quickly kill me. ”
"His fighting spirit cultivation is already the strongest, and now he has the Little Bird......
"Don't forget, my lord, that he has always wanted to steal the leadership on Monster Island. It's just that magic and vindictive spirit are forbidden on Mystery Island, and his strength is severely limited. But now, this is a vast ocean, and he can use his cultivation to the fullest. ”
The knight boy's gaze couldn't help but be in a trance.
After retrieving the Birdie, where Greybeard was standing at the moment, Mane stated to the boy his summary of the naval battle.
Mango believes that he needs better equipment, and what he needs more is a lot of rigorous training.
In the battle of the Little Bird, it can be clearly seen that many sailors on the Justice are not capable of handling sails and firing cannons.
This made Mango intolerable.
Mango also believes that his own top brass also lacks the ability to command naval battles, and now there are fewer ships, which is not obvious. But in the future, when there are more ships, this defect will become apparent.
And that included himself.
What Mane Ge said was insightful, and the boy recognized it very much. In fact, the two of them are heroes who see things in common.
So, the boy gave the bird to Mango, hoping that he would be free to play.
And the Justice is commanded by the boys.
Both have plenty of room to make the most of themselves, and they can learn from each other's strengths.
This is exactly the original intention of the young mane.
But today, Cangsu said this, and the boy suddenly realized that there was a gap between his companions, and this gap was deepening.
The beard is afraid of the mane, and the mane is also on guard against the beard. A few days ago, Mane Ge had also reminded the boy to be careful of his beard.
They each have their own reasons, and they are all well-founded.
"As a leader, what should I do?" the boy frowned and thought.
However, until Cangsu retired, he did not find an answer.
The distressed knight boy opened the drawer of his desk, and in the drawer was a pile of scrolls.
These are the Secret Scrolls.
Although he had redeemed these scrolls before, the boy had been hesitating whether to use them or not.
Today's visit made the boy make a decision.
The Secret Scroll still has to be used!
Don't underestimate people, don't overestimate people.
For the sake of the entire team, he must increase the difficulty and cost of betraying each other.
