Chapter274 Legendary Characters (Fourth Update, Asking for Monthly Tickets and Rewards)
The Sumerian is an ordinary commercial three-masted sailing ship, different from the three-masted warships in the late Age of Discovery, the Sumerian is not equipped with any artillery, even if it encounters some marauders or pirates at sea, the two sides only fight through cold weapons, and use heroic warriors and swords in their hands to fight for the ownership of ships and goods.
At this moment, the Runeterrae Lands have not yet begun to truly use gunpowder and explore the potential of gunpowder.
The fastest-growing Demacia and Noxus have the most basic black powder formula, but because of too much trouble and instability, they have never been officially put into the military, at most they are deployed to bomb the mountains for mining, and even then there is a collapse accident due to excessive use.
Compared to the troublesome and uncontrollable gunpowder, the mage's fireball is more appealing, and it will not explode inexplicably and cause a mess.
As for the transformation of gunpowder into bombs and rifled guns or ship cannons, Runeterrae did not have advanced ideas in this regard, and in some respects, the existence of magic seriously inhibited the progress of science and warfare technology.
On the Sumer, there are a total of 73 crew members, a total of 208 people can be accepted, at the request of Lester, the captain gave a long vacation to the escort wargang outside the crew, compared to the sword-wielding wargang members, Captain Kylan still trusts the combat power of a dragon bird and a mage lord more, especially after witnessing a mage beat over more than 20 warring warriors with weapons in his hands with his fists, and looked unconvinced.
When you go, you will have the protection of the lord, and when you return, you can spend money to recruit the escort warmen from Ionia, and you can save a lot of money.
The rest of the crew did not disagree with the captain's decision, but there were still crew members who complained about the dragon bird going on board, but fortunately, the captain soon plugged the mouth of the unwilling to be lonely with real money, and those crew members also understood that if they didn't shut up, the next time they would be gaged with knives.
After getting the crew ready, preparing enough food and fresh water, and several large boxes of oranges, the Sumer officially set off, leaving the port of Shamrock, and heading southeast.
When he was far away from the port, Lester used a magic beacon to summon the long-awaited Thea, who landed perfectly on the empty reinforced deck, folded her wings, and leaned down.
The waterline deepened sharply, but it was fine.
"Try not to bump into those things as much as possible, and don't bump into other people, otherwise it will be very troublesome."
Pointing to the mast and sails, Lester explained Thea's important business.
"You can come down and rest at any time, fly whenever you want, and catch your own fish and eat when you're hungry, but be sure to follow me well, don't fly too far."
"Woo~Woo~"
The silver-winged dragon bird opened its eyes wide, nodded obediently, carefully coiled its tail into a mosquito coil shape and retracted it to its side, and rubbed the man's right hand with its cheek.
Touching the side of Xia's face, Lester put his mind at ease, after more than ten years of getting along, Xia already has the thinking ability of a ten-year-old child and can understand most of Noxian.
Looking at the man who was taming the dragon in shock, the helmsman almost forgot his duty, but fortunately he turned the rudder back in time, so that the boat did not deviate from the direction of the wind.
"I'm surprised, I'm surprised, I didn't expect to be able to witness this with my own eyes."
The one who spoke was the captain's henchman, the first mate named Cork, who had a body of tendon flesh, knew a lost set of swordsmanship, and was also the most combat-ready man on the crew.
"Normal people are so scared that they pee their pants just by seeing the dragon bird, but the Lord of the Demon Mask can take the dragon bird as a pet and do things that others can't, this is a real man."
"I seem to have heard that the lord of the Emerald Realm is passing through ...... Uh......"
Removing his hand from the rudder again, and carefully glancing at the lord who was 'intimate' with the dragon bird, the helmsman Caldo poked the ring of his left hand with his right index finger, and said meaningfully.
"Dragons and birds conquered in this way...... How to put it, it's kind of disgusting...... I can't do it anyway. ”
Iron, Iron, >Iron, Iron
"Let's not tell you whether it's true or not, can you?"
"Huh?"
To Riccardo's surprise, the first mate asked directly.
"Can you do it? Conquer dragons and birds with your own body? ”
"Well, I guess I can't do it."
"Then who are you to judge others for conquering dragons and birds?"
Kicking Riccardo directly in the ass, the first mate said solemnly.
"When you can do it, you are qualified to judge, you are qualified to say whether you are willing or not, you don't even have the least respect for the strong, Riccardo, sooner or later you will suffer a big loss, take care of your rudder."
"Oh."
Knowing that Cork was right, he rubbed his ass, and Riccardo didn't say anything more.
He was indeed a little jealous, so he deliberately found some reasons to make himself not too jealous to explain that it was pointless to tame the dragon bird.
If he could tame the dragon bird with his body, what kind of helmsman would he have become a dragon bird knight long ago.
There is one he conquers the other, what is it to sacrifice his body?
"What are you talking about?"
Captain Kyelan, who had completed the logbook, came to the deck.
"Captain, I didn't say anything, I just admired Lord Lester's abilities."
Coke's words resonated with the captain.
"You're right, such people are never mortals, they spend their lives writing their own legends."
Staring at the dragonbirds that took off from the deck, Kaylan's wrinkled face was a little more memorable.
"I was also fortunate enough to meet a legendary figure and personally sent her to Fuguang Island."
"Fukuko Island? Isn't there shrouded in an evil cannibalistic black mist? How can there be living people? ”
In the face of Cork's questioning, the captain patiently explained.
"I've never told you about this experience, but this time I saw Lord Demon, as if I had returned to that early morning forty years ago, so I'll tell you about it, don't go around talking nonsense......
At that time, I was just a small sailor, following an old captain with rich seafaring experience to and fro between the Bay of Bilgewater and the continent of Shurima, doing business in a small country in the middle.
Forty years ago, Fuguang Island was still a very beautiful and mysterious place, and before that, I had no chance to go to the island to see that beautiful scene.
We had traveled south from Birgewater Bay to an island on the eastern side of the continent of Shurima, where there was an independent kingdom called 'Kamavia', and strangely enough, Kamavia, which had been open to the past, blocked the coastline with soldiers after we arrived, so that we could not land and get supplies.
Until a female general wearing iron armor and holding a war spear came to the ship, her name was Calista, and took the initiative to explain everything to us, it turned out that it was because the eldest prince accidentally collapsed, and the second prince inherited the throne,
The second prince of the royal family, who had no intention of running the country at all, ordered the border to be blocked, because his beloved queen died in an assassination attempt, and the mad new king sealed his country and sent soldiers of the Iron Regiment to search for clues related to the assassins. ”
