Departure day.

A stone square in the center of the territory.

Crowds gather.

Ji Chen, who was standing at the gate of the Lord's Mansion, had a rather serious expression.

"Willus, during these hours of my absence, you have to manage the territory for me well, and there must be no mistakes!"

Willus, who was in front of him, hurriedly saluted, "Yes, I will do my best." ”

"I leave you with all the Fish-Man Wanderers, and you have command of them during this time, but they can only be used to protect the territory and resource points everywhere."

"In addition, we will continue to monitor the cultivation of seawater rice, and I hope that when I come back, I will be able to see large paddy fields that are already thriving."

Willus replied with another panicked salute.

Ji Chen nodded and looked at Anina on the side.

According to the previously agreed conditions, she will protect the territory during this time.

"Anina, I'll leave it to you for this time."

"Leave it to me!" Anina held the greatsword and patted her chest confidently, then a little disappointed, "But when will you come back?" ”

"I'll be back in twenty days at most."

"Really?"

"Of course, I'll return as soon as it's done."

Ji Chen gave her a reassuring smile.

Then, without hesitation, he turned around and left with the rest of the army, heading towards the beach on the south side.

Last night, the pirates had repaired the Crescent and sailed the ship to the surface not far away.

Sparrow was already waiting on the beach with some pirates and a few small ships for transition.

Hopping aboard a small boat for the transition, the group rowed towards the Crescent.

Look at the big ship that is getting closer and closer.

He was excited.

Rao has already made a lot of mental preparations, but it is still difficult to suppress the excitement at this time.

It's finally time to get out of the island and go out into the ocean!

Although I find time to watch the chat channel every day, I secretly observe the speeches of various sand sculpture netizens.

Through their words, I also learned many new things outside.

in the outside world.

He can't wait to see it.

More diverse races, sexy and white-skinned elf big sisters, alcoholic dwarves, slender elf beauties, extremely sloppy dwarves, and elf girls who like to be called Ernie sauce.

The human cities, bustling ports, and crowded markets on the continent are so fascinating under the descriptions of other players.

This is, of course, nonsense, and there are not five hundred serious humans on the islands, except for kobolds.

Most of them are also native-born.

The territory is also empty, with a small population, few buildings, and no prosperous atmosphere.

Here, only Alice, who is extremely good-looking, and obedient can provide a trace of comfort.

So he was like a country boy at this time, full of curiosity about the bustling metropolis.

I want to see the world.

The boat rowed to the side of the Crescent ship, and Ji Chen successfully boarded the ship.

Shallow Sea Fishmen and Naga warriors, leaping onto deck like previous raids.

The sea elves flapped their wings and flew to the ship.

The Crescent has been completely restored, with a brand new deck, a complete hull, a towering mast, a terrible ramming.

This is his first ship!

After that, it's up to it to crisscross the ocean.

Ji Chen looked up at the mast and frowned.

"Is the sail still the same one with a skull? If it is seen by an official ship, it may be in trouble. ”

A pirate next to him immediately scratched his head and said, "My lord, the sail has been replaced by an ordinary sail, we were white sails when we were not robbing before, and after we find the target, we will change to skeleton sails." ”

"We've all had experience with that, and we promise that even if they pass by us, they won't find out we're pirates."

Ji Chen: "....."

See, what is professional.

Well, since that's the case, then there's nothing wrong with him.

The food and fresh water on board have been replenished in the past few days, enough for the whole ship's people to eat at sea for two months.

Everything is ready to go.

"Sail! Set sail! ”

With a command, the sails of the Crescent slowly lowered under the control of the pirates.

The sea breeze blows, puffing up the sails and slowly propelling the ship forward.

Ji Chen stood on the side of the boat, waved goodbye to the people on the beach and Anina.

The Crescent gradually sailed away from the island chain and into the depths of the ocean.

He looked at the outline of the island that was fading into view.

A trace of reluctance flashed in my heart.

But soon attracted attention by the novelty of the ocean view.

Except for the clouds in the clear blue sky, there is an endless sea all around.

Schools of fish leap and whales swim. this

The waves in the open sea are much rougher than those near the islands.

Even the Crescent, a three-ship sailing ship of no small tonnage, was constantly undulating and swaying in the waves.

Let Ji Chen, the first person to go to sea, can't help but grab the gauntlet to stabilize his body.

It also made him a little worried about what Raymond and the pirates had told him about the rough sea conditions at the edge of the stormy sea.

I heard that not only was it raining continuously, but it was also a stormy sea.

Looking at the surrounding scenery for a while, the excitement in Ji Chen's heart gradually subsided.

Take out the magic map and start orienting yourself.

As indicated by the map and arrows, the special main class clues are located in the southwest waters of the Crescent Islands.

At the maximum speed of the three-masted galleon, it would take about two days to arrive.

Neither short nor long.

Enough for him to experience a full sea voyage.

The storm area is neither big nor small, and it only takes more than half a day to get from the Crescent Islands to the edge of the sea.

Soon.

In the afternoon of the day of departure.

The Crescent rode all the way to the edge of the sea.

"That's what you call extremely bad sea conditions?"

Ji Chen looked at the distance as far as his eyes could see, there was a calm sea, and there was a peaceful blue sky and white clouds.

Not to mention the storm, not even a drop of rain.

He raised a frown and questioned the pirate.

"It's impossible, when we entered before, it was all stormy and rough, but why is it like this now..."

The pirates on board watched this scene in amazement, and fell into deep suspicion.

What about my high waves?

And what about the cloudy sky?

Where did it all go?

Ji Chen frowned when he saw that these pirates didn't seem to be fake.

Raymond also mentioned that when they entered the stormy sea, they also encountered very bad sea conditions.

And both the Crescent and the Elizabeth have varying degrees of damage.

This cannot be faked.

In this way, none of them are lying.

But why hasn't he met it now?

Ji Chen pondered for a moment, puzzled.

Since you can't figure it out, let's boil it down to quantum mechanics.

Anyway, it's a good thing to be able to get out unharmed.

At this thought, he pointed to the southwest, "Full speed ahead!" ”

.....

Crescent Islands.

Anina sat on the beach with her legs crossed, her eyes staring intently at the sea in the distance.

Ever since the ship departed, she had felt a sense of emptiness in her heart.

It's as if you've changed back to the feeling of being a person again.

Why is that?

She used to live alone as well.

One chases fish for food, one seeks a desert island to sleep on, one secretly observes humans in the water, and one lies on the beach to bask in the sun.

I'm used to living alone.

But why do you feel lonely like never before?

Anina clutched her chest, unable to figure anything out.
