Chapter 36: Into the Den of Thieves, a specialty of the Eastern Continent
"Ding~ The battle is over, and the enemy has surrendered. You have achieved a victory full of glory. ”
"You have leveled up (4→5) and your current experience is level 5 [54%/100%]."
At the entrance of the dark staircase, out of the pirates came with their heads in their hands
Seeing this scene, a smile rose on the corner of Ji Chen's mouth.
The effect of this wave of therapy is good.
At the same time, he didn't forget to open the territory panel to see if the pirates had really surrendered.
In the class column, there is a new word "elite pirate", followed by the number "80".
The Elite Pirate's tech tree also appears on the class tech tree.
After reading it, he was also completely relieved, and with a wave of his hand, he motioned for the fish-men and Naga warriors to let them approach.
The pirates looked with some trepianess at Alice, who was standing next to her with a cold face.
They won't forget the eerie singing they heard during the battle just now, which almost made them lose themselves in endless hallucinations.
Only the legendary Siren, the Siren, could make such a song.
The pirates cautiously came to Ji Chen and said respectfully.
"My lord, we are willing to surrender to you."
"You will be glad for the decision you made today."
"Then we don't have to mine?"
One of the pirates asked cautiously.
"Of course not, I have other places where I can use you." Ji Chen smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
Then, as if he remembered something, he asked suspiciously.
"Where's your previous boss?"
"The previous boss?" The pirates pointed to a slightly fancy corpse on the deck not far away, but no longer recognizable, "Died in the first wave of the Adult's sneak attack." ”
So unlucky?
Brother, I'll take over your ship, don't worry, I'll take care of it.
A refreshing sea breeze blows on your face.
Ji Chen trembled slightly and took a deep breath.
It's like spitting out all the pressure.
The whole person was relieved.
He now finally has a ship of his own.
A ship that can cross the ocean and no longer be trapped on this island!
From the moment I realized that this was an isolated island, a sense of mental pressure grew day by day.
This pressure is the kind of fear that you may be trapped on the island forever, never able to have contact with the outside world.
The so-called big husband was born and lived in heaven and earth, how could he live under the "island" for a long time.
The resources of an island are certainly not enough to support the development of a territory.
Sooner or later, he will have to get out of here, conquer all directions, plunder resources, and explore forbidden places.
This pirate ship was the original capital where it all began!
His efforts to persuade the remaining islands to surrender and surrender were based on this vision.
These pirates roam the oceans, and if they can track Raymond and them into this stormy sea, then there must be a few brushes of sailing skills that are worth his persuasion.
And a three-masted corsair is different from a small fishing boat that can be driven by one person.
It needs a helmsman who controls the rudder wheel, a sail rider who controls the sail ropes, an observer, a navigator, a sailor, a craftsman and many other people.
If you can install cannons and the like in the future, you will need a gunner, a gunner, a person who carries shells, and so on.
It's hard to get the ship up and running without hundreds of people.
So these pirates who stayed behind on purpose are the men of this ship!
As for the Fishmen and Naga warriors, it's okay to ask them to fight and kill, but they can't do such a job as driving a boat.
Ji Chen was in an unprecedentedly good mood at this time, and even wanted to look up to the sky and smile.
But for the sake of the lord's majesty, he still has to endure it.
"How's the ship worn? How many days can it be fixed? He asked.
"Previously, when passing through the storm on the periphery of the stormy area, there were some damage to the hull and mast of the ship, and it took about six or seven days to repair it to meet the conditions for ocean navigation."
He groaned as he touched his chin.
Six or seven days, which is about the beginning of the next week.
Time is running out, and it seems that the pace of exploration of the main island and other islands will be intensified, and the affairs of the indigenous tribes and kobolds will be dealt with as soon as possible.
When you think about it, there's actually quite a lot to do.
Looks like he's a toiler.
Ji Chen shook his head with a sigh and looked up at the moon.
It was late at night, and he had to go back to rest tomorrow when he had to meet Raymond and them.
After instructing the pirates to repair the ship as soon as possible, he returned to the territory with a small group of pirates.
The next morning, Ji Chen came to the front of the camp with food and fresh water.
This fat man had been waiting here for a long time, and when he saw him, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he greeted him enthusiastically.
"Your Excellency, you're finally here, I'm waiting... Pirate!? ”
Just as he was thinking about saying something nice, he saw more than a dozen pirates who had been subdued last night following him.
Raymond looked confused, and his eyes gradually tinged with horror.
It's over, it turns out that I've entered a den of thieves!
As soon as Ji Chen saw the fat man's expression, he knew that he had misunderstood.
Said lightly.
"Did you know you lured pirates in? If I hadn't found out in time, I'm afraid that pirate ship would have sunk your ship here. ”
Hearing this, Raymond didn't react and immediately thanked him.
But he still asked with some confusion.
"And these pirates are..."
He said lightly: "They felt my wisdom and strength, so they voluntarily surrendered to me. ”
Voluntarily?
Surrender this group of murderous pirate resources?
I'm afraid it's not convincing people with "reason", right?
Raymond complained secretly, but his face was filled with the look of Your Excellency.
Ji Chen looked at the merchant ship parked at sea and asked with some curiosity.
"What's in your ship? It looks like the draft is quite deep. ”
"It's all a specialty of the Eastern Continent." Raymond replied casually, but seeing that he was quite interested, his eyes instantly brightened, "Your Excellency, are you interested in going and seeing what it is?"
"Okay, lead the way."
Raymond saw that there might be business coming, and hurriedly beckoned a few sailors to open a small boat.
Anyway, it's all for sale, and for whom is it not for sale? Selling it here can also save some cabin space and weight.
The sailor soon rowed a small boat to the shore and carried Ji Chen and Raymond to the merchant ship.
Without stopping, Raymond led the way with an enthusiastic look on his face and led him to the staircase of the second deck.
"Your Excellency, I have all the high-quality goods here, and you will be satisfied when you see them." As he spoke, he asked the guards guarding the place to open the door.
Sunlight streams down the staircase into the slightly dark interior.
On both sides of this deck, there are wooden dungeons.
In the wooden prison, there were ragged female ** subordinates, their eyes full of fear and helplessness, huddled in the corner and shivered.
Ji Chen frowned and said.
"This is what you said about the specialty of the Eastern Continent?"
Raymond said with a smile: "Exactly, these female slaves were all bought by me from the slave owners in the Eastern Continent, Your Excellency, do you think their appearance is a little special?" ”
Ji Chen stared at it and nodded secretly.
It's really different, these female slaves have fair skin and a bit of exotic faces.
If he wears another thin veil, he really looks like the woman of the desert people in his impression.
This fat man has a wide range of business, even in the slave business.
Looking at these shivering female slaves, he squinted his eyes and his heart moved.
