Chapter 200
Captain David's expression was stunned for a while, and he began to answer Romon's question in a trance, and the answer he knew was not much different from Romon's own guess. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This world is not simply the earth in the 17th century, nor is it simply the [Pirates of the Caribbean] world, from the known information from Captain David's mouth, Romon has a general understanding of the surface of this world.
There is no continent in this world, and the land is usually divided by the sea, and countries such as Britain, France, Spain, Portugal, and the Netherlands basically occupy a large island, and the island area is about the same size as the mainland of these countries in reality.
And there are some small countries, and there are other small countries in Europe that are located on the same island, and they are constantly fighting each other, and the exploration of the seas and new lands is much behind these countries.
After all, if a country has so many resources and energy, and if the focus is on the fleet, the army on land will inevitably be weakened, which is unacceptable to countries such as Prussia.
Similarly, because of the increase in the area of the ocean, the area of this world is still more than the earth that Romon has been on before, and as for how much bigger, Romon who has just come to this world is not clear.
Since Columbus started the Age of Discovery, the European islands, the first countries to step into the sea, have received what they want, land, slaves, wealth, newly discovered islands have become colonies of these countries, and these things have stimulated the further development of seafaring.
It's just that there are pros and cons, and there are not a few troubles that these countries need to consider after acquiring many colonies.
The unfathomable seas, the sea beasts that lurk in the seas, the pirates who plunder the riches and destroy the cities, and the last thing these nations want is the seclusion of colonies far from their homeland.
The sea is really the biggest obstacle to the convenient connection between the mainland and the colonies, and the fleets of various countries are scattered everywhere.
Under such circumstances, the colonies that are isolated overseas are naturally the sweets in the eyes of some ambitious people, or the governors of the colonies, or the commanders of a certain fleet, in the colonies where they are stationed, although they still obey the orders of the various European countries on the surface, but in private there are endless small actions.
Port Royal, the shipping center of the Caribbean, the richest and most evil city in the world at this time, is home to a large number of ships coming in and out every day, bringing infinite vitality to this thriving commercial city.
With such a prosperous city, Britain naturally did not sit idly by and watch it fall into a semi-independent state like other colonies.
The separation of the Governor, or the Mayor, Mr. Swan, from Colonel Norrington was a British measure to avoid colonial independence in Port Royal, but after a few years of calm, it seems that news of the beginning of correspondence between Governor Swan and Colonel Norrington has recently emerged.
Of course, this information is only known to some people in Port Royal.
The relationship between the pirates and the various cities is somewhat responsible, some cities have a vague connection with the pirates, and others, such as Port Royal, are firmly committed to the policy of exterminating piracy.
Dried corpses are often hung in Port Royal Harbour, which are pirates who have been sent to the gallows, turned into horrors in the wind and rain.

"Captain, wake up, wake up!"
The one-eyed dragon first mate woke up Captain David, who was sleeping against a pile of cables, and he quickly woke up Captain David, who was worried that his captain would catch a cold.
"William?!, what's wrong with me?"
Captain David, who obviously hadn't fully woken up, asked his first mate rhetorically, but saw that his first mate couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.
"I see you leaning here asleep, my God, what if you get sick by the sea breeze? I don't want to go to sea, my captain dies at sea because of sleep......
Touching his head stupidly, Captain David, who has been begging for a living at sea all the year round, naturally knows that it is terrible to be sick at sea, which is completely equivalent to giving his life to the god of death, as for whether it is dead or alive, it all depends on the mood of the god of death.
"Strange, how could I fall asleep here......?
"Let me think about what I was going to do before I fell asleep?! Damn! I forgot all about it when I fell asleep......"
Looking at the captain of his own broken thoughts, the first mate of the one-eyed dragon pulled him into the cabin with some helplessness, just got up, but he shouldn't continue to blow the sea breeze on the deck.
The days on the ship went by, and the brief amnesia of that afternoon did not affect Captain David's enthusiasm for Romon and Wren, and incidentally added the respect of the other sailors for both of them.
And all this is because of some small things in Romon's eyes, for example, because of the delay of a week on Tiger Shark Island, the ship's fresh water reserves are insufficient, and when Captain David and the sailors are distressed, Wren got Romon's instructions to condense a large water balloon in front of everyone very casually......
The pure fresh water made the sailors ecstatic, and likewise let the sailors know the reason why Captain David respected Romon and the others.
"I actually met a mysterious wizard, and when I go back this time, I will make a big splash in the tavern, so that those turtles will envy me and invite me to drink the most expensive rum......"
Similar remarks kept coming out of the sailors' chats, which made Romon sneer in his heart.
"I'm afraid you don't have that chance......"
With Captain David's frequent reports, Romon already knew that they were not far from Port Royal.
And Romon who got the information he wanted, didn't think that these sailors could bring him any help, on the contrary, their existence was a hidden danger for himself and Wren.
Through the meteorite landing on Tiger Shark Island, this strange way of appearing, as long as someone wants to investigate, the identities of Luo Meng and the two will definitely be suspected, which will inevitably have an adverse impact on Luo Meng's future development.
And the best way to deal with Romon at the moment is, of course, to completely execute these people who have seen his face.
It was the most wicked city in human history, and the most depraved city, and although only a few tens of thousands of people lived here (about 6,500 of whom were pirates), the city's extravagance far surpassed that of London and Paris at the time. The whole city does not have any industry, but can enjoy the most luxurious material life. Chinese silk, Indonesian spices, and British industrial products are all available. Of course, the most abundant are gold bars, silver bars and jewelry.
