The small red ball gently fell into the sea, splashing a small splash, and was instantly transformed by the surrounding seawater. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Then, a loud bang was heard, and a column of water with a diameter of 3 meters rose into the sky at the point where the ball fell. The sailors on board saw several sea tribes swept into the air by the water column, and then tumbled and fell into the water. Then he floated motionless on the water, not knowing if he was alive or directly blown up.

Seeing that this fried fish balls really worked, it was like these fried fish balls were distributed to a few archers with good eyesight. In any case, archers are better at accuracy than other classes.

The archers on this merchant ship are also quite powerful, and they are accurate at one throw. For each one, at least 3 or more Sea Tribesmen will be overturned by the fried fish balls and thrown to the sea.

Groups of Sea Tribes tried to get close to the ship, but batch after batch were blown to the surface. They also saw the Triumph approaching, and in order to get the ship done as quickly as possible, they also began to switch ways of attacking.

Soon, the Sea Clan in the business war seemed to have dived deeper into the water, and even the best archers could no longer observe their position with the naked eye. According to the first mate's guess, it seems that they did this intentionally to avoid the range of the fish balls and not rise until they were close to the side of the ship, so as to reduce the unnecessary casualties during the attack.

But things are not what I imagined. The Sea Tribes have not come out of the water for a long time, and there is no sign of an attack on the side of the railroad ship. In addition to the fact that there are those sea tribesmen whose fate is unknown floating on the sea, the water surface is surprisingly calm. If it weren't for the hints of those Sea Tribesmen on the surface of the sea, they wouldn't have thought that there had been an encounter just now.

Seeing the Triumph approaching, everyone on board thought they could breathe a sigh of relief. Who knew that at this time, a sailor in the bottom warehouse ran up in a panic to report that the bottom warehouse was flooded.

"Oh no, they're trying to sink the ship. Inform all the sailors and go to the bottom compartment to scoop water. At the same time, the Triumph was immediately notified and asked for them to respond. It really didn't work, we had to abandon ship. "The captain made a decision.

The captain immediately wrote down the current situation and his needs on leather paper and put it in the pocket around the seabird's neck. He then lifted the seabird and threw it into the air (these are the ways to communicate with the seabirds, which are stated in the instructions).

The seabirds, which were thrown into the air, immediately spread their wings and flew towards the Triumph.

Ten minutes later, the seabird flew aboard the Triumph. The letter was immediately delivered to Captain Femeral.

After reading the letter, Femeral's brows furrowed, and he realized that there was something serious about the situation. The Sea-Folk were primarily trying to cut off Edria's supplies, and they didn't care if they could steal anything. Therefore, sinking the ship is also a way for them to achieve their goals. But such behavior is tantamount to taking a salary from the bottom of the kettle for the city of Edria. Besides, once the ship sinks to the bottom of the sea, it is not a trophy of the sea tribe?

"Let the seabirds send the MKD-S17.torrent seeds to the ship. Hope to be able to hold on until we arrive. ”

At this time, the merchant ship was already in chaos. Except for a few mercenaries who were left on deck, all the sailors went down to the bottom barn. Some of them carried their water-soaked cargo to the upper cabins, making sure there was plenty of room for other sailors to scoop the water. However, if a hole is found to be leaking, it is immediately filled with cargo to reduce the infiltration of seawater.

The captain and first mate have already joined the scooping team. Suddenly, the mercenary who stayed behind on the upper deck delivered a bottle and a letter.

"Captain, this is something and a letter from the seabirds. Please take a look at it. "Even in this moment of crisis, these mercenaries with their heads pinned to the waistband of their pants are even less flustered.

The captain wiped his hands, took the letter, and read it carefully. Immediately after reading the letter, he took the bottle containing the seeds and handed it to the ship's soothsayer. At the same time, the sailors were ordered to stand in a place where there was no water. The soothsayer, on the instructions of the captain, used the spawning spirit to induce the seed and threw it into the water. As soon as the seed was in the water, it grew wildly, and in a few minutes, the whole silo was covered with this green plant, and even the vines were inserted into the seepaged hole, and the hole was tightly blocked.

Not only that, but the plants are still frantically absorbing the seawater at the bottom. Soon, the bottom of the cabin was washed clean.

According to the description, once enough water is lost, the plant will die quickly. Therefore, not only can you not scoop water, but you have to fill it with water. The captain had to order all the crew to keep fetching water from the sea and filling the bottom tank.

The excess cargo used to block the water was also removed, and the sea water gushing out of the hole was instantly sucked up by the plants, and even the branches were stretched out into the sea along the loopholes.

These are all seen on board. But at the bottom of the ship, the Sea Clan was staggered by the mysterious green tentacles, and they couldn't get close to the bottom of the boat. Their plan to sink the ship also fell through.

The captain saw that the bottom compartment was not leaking, and finally relieved himself. However, the crew was ordered to continue scooping water to ensure that the plants had enough seawater to prevent them from wilting.

At first, the plants absorb water very quickly, and the water that falls down is sucked up in an instant. The crew was busy, but the plants were showing faint signs of withering. But over time, the amount of water absorbed by the plant begins to gradually decrease. The rate of seawater infusion is almost as fast as the rate of plant absorption.

Twenty minutes later, the Triumph had reduced its speed and was parallel to the merchant ship. At this time, the Triumph saw clearly the name of the ship "Titanica".

The horizontal plate between the two ships, the captain of the Titanica personally boarded the ship to express his gratitude to the Triumph. If it weren't for them to provide these supplies today, the Titanica would definitely sink to the bottom of the sea today.

"What kind of cargo are you shipping?" asked Femeral.

"Sir, we're shipping wheat this time. It's just that part of it got into the water. "Although Femeral belongs to the special combat unit under the Fairy Spring, he is also a captain awarded by the lord himself. Therefore, it is not too much for the captain of the Titanica, Henica, to call him a chief.

"How many?"

"It's about 2,000 tons. ”

"Well, how about selling it to us at 70 percent of the price of wheat in the New World?"

"This ......" Henika hesitated a little, after all, thirty percent lower, which is a lot of money.

"In addition, the supplies for you today will not be counted separately, what do you think?" Femeral saw that he hesitated, and continued to give him sweetness, "You must know that even if these supplies are sent to Edria, only the army can be equipped." If you want to equip ordinary merchant ships, you can't do it for a little money. What's more, it will cost nearly 10,000 gold coins to use these seeds and fried fish balls today. It is not much different from the price of 2,000 tons of wheat. In addition, the price of wheat that has been flooded can be reduced a lot. Femeral kept persuading him to sell him the wheat.

In the end, Henica made up his mind: first, to build a good relationship, maybe he needed their help on the way, and second, if the goods were really as much as he said, then he still had to earn. So, he still sold it at the price given by Femeral.

Hearing that Henica had agreed to sell it at seventy percent, Femeralle blossomed. The purchase price of Fairy Spring was 80% of the original price, and he made a net profit of 10% of the difference when he changed hands. And he doesn't want to pay for the unloading or anything. In addition, the material consumption this time was completely reimbursed by the garrison, and it didn't cost him a penny.

In the evenings, the sailors found that the plants were saturating with water, and basically only one or two barrels of seawater per hour were needed to meet the demand. However, the observers aboard the Triumph were still carefully recording the growth of the plants.

Under the escort of the Triumph, the Titanica arrived at the port smoothly after 4 days. The Stubborn and Reckless had already returned to the port three days ago for replenishment and rest. Except for the Triumph, which brought back a ship, the Stubborn and Reckless only repelled a few waves of Sea Clans. In the past few days, there have been 2-3 merchant ships transporting grain and 1 lucky private ship arriving at the port, which is not much different from usual. Of course, if it weren't for the 3 warships patrolling outside and the Sea Knights guarding the coastal waters, I'm afraid the blockade of the Sea Clan would not be so easy to break. For example, the lucky private sailing boat, 30 kilometers away from Edria, was targeted by the sea tribes, but fortunately it was discovered by the early warning seabirds, and the sea knights arrived in the fastest time to save them.

One of the three new ships that Elchea had commissioned would be launched tomorrow. Early this morning, she rushed to the shipyard dock with Luo Shan, Suna and Ollie, as well as the captain of the garrison, Landrea, and others.

The ship in sight is larger than a normal merchant ship. If you had to compare, it would be half as big as the Utopian (the original Aphona).

The captain and the president of the Pioneer Association are actually here to join in the fun. After the launching ceremony, they said some congratulatory words and planned to leave. As a result, before he could take a step, he was basketed by Achea.

"Do you know what kind of ship I built?"

The two shook their heads.

"I'm a battleship, the same as the three ships of the Triumph. Acea accentuated the words "the same battleship" and gave her a look of understanding.

Didn't the old fox, who had lived so many years, still not understand what Elchea meant?Landrea wasn't the kind of person who couldn't hear what others meant, otherwise how could he climb to a position second only to the lord as the captain?

"What are you going to want?" money or materials, or knighthood? or nothing else," Landrea glanced at the president, who gave him an affirmative look before he spoke.

"It's easy to talk to smart people. If my siblings have a chance to return home, I hope you will help me get a knighthood. ”

"Hehe, according to your current contribution, even if we don't speak, Your Majesty will at least add you a baron, and there is also a not very large fief. ”

"Can you only be crowned a baron? Elchea muttered.

The president didn't hear her reproach for what she said was not enough. "Don't worry, as long as you continue, with the recommendation of Chirness and his father, the Grand Duke of Doron, the Count will be able to do so at that time. The president seemed to be comforting him, but in fact he threw out a big bait.
