Chapter 522: Exploration of the New Base
It's strange to say, since the baby arrived in Jessica's arms, he didn't cry or make trouble, those big clear eyes looked at Jessica's face without blinking, and a small hand also reached into the toothless mouth, looking at the woman holding him very curiously.
Jessica was holding some rare treasure in her arms, her movements were surprisingly gentle, and her already somewhat detached palm was even softer when it landed on the baby's face.
"Ah......h
The little baby was touched by Jessica's little face, which seemed to feel very comfortable, and the little mouth opened and gently spit out a syllable, although he could not speak yet, but the cheerful meaning in the voice was understandable to the listener.
"Alschat...... This kid and he ...... It really seems to be ......."
Jessica lifted the baby slightly, pressed her face against his soft little face, and rubbed it gently, and the baby, who looked like two or three months old, was treated like this, not only did not cry, but let out a happy laugh like "whirring".
For Jessica's words, of course, no one really takes it seriously, but this big and small seem to be very close to each other, but it can't be faked, and the appearance of this baby can also help Jessica get out of the haze of losing Al Stea.
Only Jessica herself knows that this baby is really too similar to Al Schat, the eyes of both of them are so clear, they are both turquoise eyes, at first glance it seems to be a little wooden, but in fact it is also faintly smart, plus he and Al Schat's exact same physique, which also makes Jessica feel that this person is the reincarnation of Al Schat, no matter how bad it is, it must be Al Schat's request to the gods in heaven to give it to him, otherwise, how can there be so many coincidences?
"Jessica, since you like him, give this little one a name. Looking at the little guy who was still very well-behaved in Jessica's arms, she felt that her heart seemed to be melted by the pure gaze of the little guy, and she couldn't help but squat down and tease the little guy's face with her fingers, the little guy was not afraid of life, and stretched out her little hand to grab the slender white fingers of Ginevia at the speed that the baby thought was very fast.
"Just call him...... Arshavin!"
Jessica's eyes are already full of maternal tenderness, even if she is tired now, she still holds the little baby, no, little Arshavin will not let go, the little guy seems to recognize her, the little hand is "very hard" grasping Jessica's clothes, and it seems that there is no intention of letting go.
"Jessica, take the baby back to the cabin, he's too young to let him blow the sea breeze here, after all, he's just recovered. ”
Feeling the sea breeze that gradually began to get stronger, Sojes looked up at the sky in the distance, and found that there was a faint tendency of clouds gathering at the end of his vision, and couldn't help but sniff, after smelling the slightly changing smell of the sea breeze, he knew that the storm was coming, so after saying this, he directly glanced at Genevia and Vida, and asked them to take Jessica back to the cabin, and then told the deputy head named Kali Farah to prepare for the storm on their own, and Carly Farah immediately went to carry out the order without even asking。
In the end, she was born in a military force, executing orders, obeying commands has almost been integrated into instinct, looking at her slightly weak appearance, I really can't imagine that she is acting so vigorously, with the wind speed just now, the storm is only a few minutes of time span, but in this short period of time, Kali Farah has given all the orders, all the pirates have moved all the goods back to their ships before, and now the ships of the armed merchant groups have become empty shelves, except for the corpses, there is hardly anything of value to be seen。
The ships were emptied, and the ships on his own side were considered to be overweight, and by the time all the personnel were in place, Sorgeth had already returned to the ghost ship with Genevia, and the rest of the main team members were in place, ready to face the impending storm.
The speed of the storm was a little slower than expected, but it did come after all, but the intensity was somewhat beyond imagination, and its arrival was accompanied by lightning and thunder.
Just looking at the storm and lightning swept up in the nearby wind, Sojes couldn't help but sigh at the power of nature, even if he was as arrogant as him, he still felt his insignificance in the face of angry nature, his demon god coffin was still unbreakable, but he couldn't cut the wind and rain, his fighting spirit was still so strong, but he still couldn't block the real thunder and lightning.
Even if the lightning struck him head-on, there was no way to kill him.
Storms come and go quickly, with the strength of the Avengers Pirates, even a storm of a larger level can be dealt with, and it is not the first time for them to experience a storm immediately after the war, and this time it is not a big deal, except that two unlucky guys were accidentally swept out by the wind, but fortunately, a group of seventh-order people were outside, and they were brought back with a little help.
After all, there are very few weak forces who dare to break into the chaotic sea, and although there are many in this world, there are not so many of them, so although there are more dangers here, there are also a lot of small troubles.
With the Avengers and Pirates unable to keep up with the speed of these ships, it took longer than expected to get to the Jade Islands, but in the end, they finally arrived safely.
After arriving, they did not go directly to Achedna's hometown, but randomly found an island that was not small in size and had relatively lush vegetation and landed first.
For an island, the luxuriance of vegetation also affects to some extent whether there are enough animals on the island, since you want to build a base, at least you must ensure a sufficient source of meat, often feed on sea fish, not everyone can get used to it.
Of course, the task of exploring the island is in charge of the five seventh orders, Dominica, an ally, did not land, the two sides arranged the plan very well, and after establishing the position, they also needed to carry out defensive operations, Dominica took the Black Gold, and kept circling around the two nearby islands, establishing the height of the terrain, and also clarifying the approximate size of the three islands, and before the return of the five of Sogers, they had already begun to draw a sketch, and after Sogers and others had explored an island, Dominica had already formulated the preliminary plan for the three islands。
Of course, the initial plan naturally can't be used directly, Dominica is only based on the geographical location and general environment, and doesn't know the real content of the island, after learning about the approximate distribution range of the creatures on the island just now, the plan is also improving little by little, and finally, they spent two days of effort, and the three islands were carefully explored, during which they were naturally attacked by monsters or beasts, but fortunately, there were no too strong lives on the three islands, and the most powerful was just a second-order lone creature, and it was herbivorous, and the aggression was not strong。
These three islands do not have any natives except for a small number of beasts, which can be regarded as saving some effort.
The three islands are nothing special at first glance, in fact, not every island can have a special place like Rainbow Island, but ordinary is ordinary, at least after Cervantes's experience in the past two days, this island is still very suitable for plant growth, which is also a good thing for them, at least it can be used to try to grow crops and reduce the consumption pressure caused by daily necessities.
Perhaps the only bad thing is that these three islands are not suitable for growing wheat, only rye, which means that it is not easy for anyone who is stationed here to eat a white bread.
The things that should be dealt with have been completed, and finally weighed the pros and cons, and they also gave up the plan to directly send people for preliminary construction, first, the tools are simple, second, they can't leave too many manpower and ships, and third, there is one more thing to deal with next, and the risk level of this matter is not even lower than the original trip to the ghost ship, but now that outsiders are present, it is inconvenient for Sojes to say it clearly.
Marked the coordinates on the chart, the Dragon's Tooth Pirates began to return in the direction of Rainbow Island, as expected, from the execution ground to the return to Rainbow Island, it took a total of about two months, in these two months, Rock Khan also sold out the second batch of perfumes, the quantity is still the previous quantity, but the quality is indeed a grade higher than the previous batch, the price is not too much higher, Rock Khan is not stupid, perfume is sold for this kind of thing, it is almost like making money, if this behavior is done too much, it is easy to be coveted by all sides。
The final result was that this time the perfume made a total of 700,000 gold coins, and the two perfume sales brought 1.3 million gold coins to the Dragon Tooth Pirate Group itself!
It is true that even if the benefits distributed to them add up, they are only equal to the income of the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Group, although such income is huge, but it may not be an astronomical amount for the empire, but its current output can bring such huge benefits, so if the output increases, how terrifying will its profits be?
The kings of the two countries instinctively fantasized about it, but in the end they didn't take it seriously, they also knew that if the production was greatly increased, it would not be possible for this thing to have the current price, and seeing that the Dragon Tooth Pirate Regiment was the same amount twice, I believe that even if they still have any spare strength, there is no reason for the difference to be too big.
Fortunately, these two kings are their own people, especially the Winter Queen is also a cheap mother-in-law of Sorgeth, otherwise, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not attack the Dragon's Tooth Pirates now.
"But Jack, the perfume matter has now spread more and more widely, and I'm afraid that more forces will target us in the future. After Lockhan was excited, his tone revealed obvious concern, such a terrible income was enough to make most of the forces in the world moved, to put it mildly, even if the entire fleet of the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment was dispatched, they might not be able to grab the profit from the sale of perfume for a month!
With the current scale of the Dragon's Tooth Pirate Regiment, it is difficult to do it, and the size of this benefit can also be imagined.
"Don't be afraid, you should do what I say, right?"
"Well, I have repeatedly emphasized that perfume is a luxury item for the upper class aristocracy, although nearly 6,000 bottles are sold a year this time, but it is also all our inventory, and we can only sell 3,000 bottles a year in the future, the price remains the same, and the time is set at this moment next year. "Lockhan doesn't disobey Sojers when it comes to big decisions, and although he doesn't quite know why Sojers wants to lengthen the sales gap, he still takes it seriously.
"That's good, with a one-year buffer period, I can also try to hit the peak of the seventh order, Tang Meng's kid should also be able to successfully break through, Will, Shuai Si and Fett may also be able to break through a small stage, when the time comes, there will be six people in the seventh order on our side, as long as there are not more than three eighth-order masters to attack at the same time, even if our brother-in-law is not there, we can beat them back with our own strength!"
Sojes's words also made Lockhan suddenly, he understood that Sojes didn't really want to give up the objective profit of 700,000 a year, but planned to extend this buffer time, so that he could take advantage of this time to start accelerating development, with their current financial resources, if they want to recruit people or build ships and buy ships, they can rapidly expand their power in a short period of time, and then pay attention to the improvement of high-end strength while increasing their power, and the two will be carried out at the same time, as long as they survive this year, the Dragon Tooth Pirate Group will really stand in the forest of the top forces in the world。
One year, short, but also very long, Sojes did not rely on himself to break through to the peak of the seventh order, but it is not impossible to improve his combat effectiveness at the current strength level, he is not now in a real life and death fight with the master of the eighth order, and it is not clear whether he can win an eighth order head-on now, the original ghost captain is obviously a special existence, and he can't use her as a reference at all.
Returned to Rainbow Island, the Ghost Hand Pirate Group and the Teng Snake Pirate Group also said goodbye, they left in order to build the base on the side of the Jade Islands first, before the construction, of course, they also need to buy enough construction materials, in order to be able to purchase all the materials in a shorter time, and in order to act more securely, so Sojes divided thirty ships, plus the Iron Heart Pirate Group and the Ghost Flame Pirate Group were sent out at the same time, and the combined fleet of these five pirate groups combined, its size was nearly a hundred.
In order to save time and money, the combined fleet set off for some kingdoms in the sacred beast sea, and according to Lockhan's introduction, they went to the designated countries to buy the first batch of building materials at a relatively low price, and then at Irum's request, the Teng Snake pirate group divided half of the fleet and returned to the pirate city with him.
