Chapter 282: Sapphire Sea
On the vast and calm deep blue sea, a huge three-masted schooner with black sails broke through the layers of water and traveled quickly forward, like a giant black fish.
On either side of the mainmast of the galleon, stood two crows, one of whom was jet-black and had black pupils, while the other had a pair of white claws.
The two crows had been looking at each other like this for three days, motionless, as if they were statues, as if they were dead.
The ship was none other than Andy's Black Fantasy, and it was his third day out of the port of Terca.
And today, they finally officially left the sacred sea of Seraphim and came to the Sapphire Sea, which is said to be surrounded by many sapphire mines, which is the main place where the Roman Empire produces sapphires, and this sea area is also named after it.
The port of Idia, which Jack is talking about, is the pirate port in this sea.
Because of the abundance of sapphires, most of the coasts of the Sapphire Sea are trading ports where merchants gather, and hundreds of merchant ships pass through here every day, carrying a large number of beautiful and precious blue gems from here.
Of course, this also made the sapphire sea area full of a large number of pirate ships, they unscrupulously crisscrossed the sapphire sea, and the merchants had to unite and pay a huge price, which made the royal family of the Roman Empire order to set up a lot of naval ports along the coast of the sapphire sea, and these navies will go out to search almost every day.
"Captain, we should be in the Sapphire Sea by now. ”
Bibab stood on the stern of the ship, steering the rudder and looking at the charts placed next to him.
Andy comes every day to learn for a while, because he doesn't know anything about sailing, and to become a qualified captain, it's a skill he must have.
Hearing Bibab's words, Andy breathed a sigh of relief and left the Sacred Sea, his heart was completely relaxed, he and Jack opened the door of the boulder, which had completely offended the Red Devil Eric, the Sacred Sea was equivalent to Eric's back garden, and staying there really made Andy unable to relax.
Andy looked at the nautical chart, which clearly recorded the ports along the coast of the Sapphire Sea.
"There are so many naval ports here, even Eric doesn't dare to come in easily......"
The more famous the pirates, the more careful they must be, because most of them have offended many empires, and even on the wanted lists of those empires, although Eric is powerful, but not strong enough to compete with an empire, there are more than a dozen naval ports in the sapphire sea, and once Eric appears here, he will be targeted by the navy.
"Moreover, there are more than a dozen routes from the Sapphire Sea to the Central Sea...... Well, this is the port of Idia, and Jack says he'll relax here for a while. ”
"Are we going to the port of Idia?"
Bibab looked at the map, and he turned his head and asked.
"No, the port of Idia is too big, let's find a small port...... Let me see. ”
Andy's eyes searched the charts, and he smiled, pointed to the charts, and whispered, "Just go here, Hogg Harbor." ”
Bibab looked at the course, and he nodded, "If nothing else, at this time in two days, we are already enjoying the enthusiasm of the women from Hogg Harbor. ”
Andy chuckled softly, and he tried to pat Bibab on the shoulder, but found that he was too much taller than himself, and finally had to reluctantly walk down the stern building.
After leaving the cliff and returning to the Black Fantasy, Andy immediately found Asha, Sid, and Charles, and asked them to do everything they could to get the crew of the Black Fantasy back, with the deadline being noon the next day.
By noon the next day, most of the pirates had returned to the Black Fantasy, some of them still drunk, but when they heard that the Black Fantasy was about to set sail, they didn't care so much, and ran back with rum bottles.
They didn't want to be abandoned, after all, Andy was a good captain who was strong and generous.
But there are still a dozen guys missing, maybe some of them have died in Terga Harbor because of their fierce fighting, maybe some of them are separated from their partners and enjoying themselves alone, in short, they have been abandoned by Andy.
When those guys squandered all the gold coins in their hands and thought about returning to the ship, they would find that the Black Fantasy was long gone.
They will also be among the wandering pirates of Terga Harbor until they find a pirate ship willing to take them in again.
Andy was on deck, and the pirates were greeting him sparsely, the guys were enjoying the sun, and a few pirates were teasing the seagulls with the small fish they caught.
Andy didn't know what he saw, he stopped and walked over to Charles, who leaned out as if to get close to the water below.
"Charles, what are you looking at?"
Hearing Andy's question, Charles realized that Andy had come over, he took a sip of rum, and said with a smile, "Chief, this is the Sapphire Sea, I came from a small village on the coast of the Sapphire Sea, my father was a miner, but I became a pirate." ”
"Homesick?"
Andy gave Charles a strange look, his scar was prominently exposed, which made him look fierce.
"Home? I don't have a home for a long time. ”
Charles smacked his lips a few times, clenched his hands into fists, clenched the railing tightly, and laughed self-deprecatingly.
Andy didn't say anything, he pulled out his flask and bumped into Charles.
Charles didn't say anything, but his rough and stiff face softened a little.
"If it's okay, get in touch with the guys, you look at Asha, he's doing a great job. ”
Andy glanced at Asha, who was playing dice with a few pirates on the side of the deck, and whispered.
Charles was stunned for a moment and nodded.
Andy smiled with satisfaction, he tidied up his clothes, and walked towards Olivia's room, it was only the third day of going to sea, Andy had already seen Asha drinking and gambling with dozens of pirates, and it seemed that even Sid's words were not as effective as Asha's words now.
In the world of pirates, the most important thing is strength, and in addition to strength, it depends on whether you have the appetite for other people, if the strength of the first mate is similar to that of the captain, and the sailors on the ship support the first mate, then the ship is very prone to riots, and the captain will easily become another person.
"It's a good guy, but he's too ambitious. ”
Andy muttered a thoughtless word and knocked on Olivia's door.
"Olivia, I think we should talk about the Grail Shards. ”
