Looking at the man standing on the shore, Qiao Yixiong looked happy, as if he saw some life-saving straw.

The boat ran aground on the tidal flats, and they landed with twenty or thirty troops on the surface.

"Brother, thank you for allowing us to land, otherwise we don't know when we will reach land, and there is not even an island in sight in the waters around here."

"Your territory is quite remote..."

Hearing his familiar voice, Ji Chen nodded lightly, and said without much reaction: "Where are you from, and is there anything wrong with coming here?" ”

Seeing his unsalty and unpleasant appearance, Qiao Yixiong's enthusiasm did not diminish in the slightest.

His face was still grateful, and his tone was sincere: "That's the case, my name is Qiao Yixiong, I don't know what your name is, brother?" ”

"Just call me Ji Chen."

"Ji Chen? Good name! Qiao Yixiong first patted his ass, and then gestured to the four people who followed, "They are all my companions, and their names are..."

"That's right, we just left the Silver Islands a few days ago and are on our way back to the territory."

"Brother Ji, you should know the secret realm of the Silver Islands from the chat channel and forum, right?" Qiao Yixiong hesitated.

Ji Chen nodded unavoidably.

Not only did he know, but he was also deeply involved.

Seeing him nodding, Qiao Yixiong's eyes lit up: "Don't you know that there are Craig soldiers everywhere in the secret realm, the danger is extremely high, we have lost a lot of troops in the secret realm, and in the last super-large-scale naval battle, the fight is called a fierce one..."

“... The Player Fleet, the Pirate Fleet, the Craig Fleet, and the Bauhinia Alliance Fleet are fighting each other..."

Qiao Yixiong described it vividly, talking eloquently, as if he had really experienced all this.

Ji Chen listened to his words, and the corners of his mouth twitched imperceptibly.

This sounds quite true at first glance, and if you haven't experienced this incident, you will definitely believe it when you hear such a colorful description.

But in the eyes of a deeply involved man, the description is full of holes.

Good guy, is this a big knife in front of Guan Gong?

But Qiao Yixiong, who was acting emotionally, didn't notice Ji Chen's appearance, and he almost believed it as he spoke.

“... Just as hundreds of warships were chasing the player's fleet, a three-masted galleon suddenly appeared in the player's fleet, and like a fearless warrior, it was the first to rush to the Silver Islands, pointing out a way for the player to escape. ”

Qiao Yixiong paused and pointed to the old crescent next to him, "It's about the same size as this ship." ”

"Speaking of which, the brother on that ship is really smart and decisive, and he even thought of using the complexity of the Silver Islands to evade pursuit."

Hearing this, Ji Chen took a deep breath.

Well, more praise, he loves to listen.

“... In the end, none of the players survived, and a few of us left early in order to save our strength. ”

"But fortunately, before the secret realm opened, we traded a batch of special products with other players, and we can make some money after shipping them back, so we don't return empty-handed..."

"Oh, I see, what happened to you after that?"

Although it is full of loopholes, the picture is quite vivid and novel, Ji Chen asked with a little interest.

Hearing this, Qiao Yixiong's face showed a little helplessness and sighed deeply.

"But on our way back, about two days ago, we were hit by a storm at sea, and we accidentally lost some of our food and fresh water.

And the rest is not enough for us to use back in the territory, so I want to buy some food and fresh water from you, and we will pay for it in silver and gold. ”

Ji Chen nodded "suddenly", and understood in his heart.

This so-called Qiao Yixiong has not been to the Silver Islands, and it looks very vivid, but most of the information can be obtained from chat channels and forums.

But after saying this, being able to integrate so much scattered information and say it so vividly is also a talent.

But it's a pity ...

Ji Chen secretly shook his head and said, "In that case, I can make a deal with you." ”

Qiao Yixiong suddenly felt happy in his heart, "Then thank Brother Ji first, thank you for your help." ”

Then he lowered his right hand as if he was relaxed, and his thumb was slightly cocked, suggesting to his companion.

Soon, a young man looked left and right, and spoke in a very puzzled tone.

"Brother, you have so many boats, why don't you build a dock to make it easy to get on and off..."

"Shut up, don't ask questions." Qiao Yixiong frowned, immediately scolded, turned his head and said apologetically: "Brother Ji, I'm sorry, he's just very curious, and he doesn't mean anything else." ”

The young man also seemed to react, and said very apologetically: "I'm sorry, it's me who has a lot of trouble." ”

There is an unwritten agreement among players not to actively probe the details and problems of other people's territories at any time.

Qiao Yixiong knew this very well, so he did the opposite, one singing red face, the other singing white face, and carrying out psychological tactics.

In this way, people's psychology tends to that they have no malicious intent.

It's a simple practice, but it's surprisingly effective, keeping them invincible and hunting down a lot of players competing with them for resources.

The first paragraph of storytelling dispels doubts, and the latter dispels them; Be vigilant.

After two sets, Qiao Yixiong didn't believe that he couldn't find a chance to shoot!

But Ji Chen, who had already seen through them, couldn't help but smile in his heart when he looked at their hard work.

If it weren't for the hundreds of red dots hidden in the water on the all-seeing map, he would have wanted to applaud when he saw their tacit cooperation.

But since he wants to act, then he will cooperate with the act a little, and he will be idle anyway.

Thinking like this, there was a touch of kindness on his face, "It's okay, you wait here, I'll let someone fetch food and fresh water." ”

With that, he motioned for a few pirates to return to the woods and fetch food and fresh water as if they were present.

And he himself let down his guard and walked slowly towards them.

Seeing this, Qiao Yixiong and several others secretly became excited in their hearts.

It seems that this wave is stable!

Seeing that Ji Chen was getting closer and closer, they secretly contacted the troops in the water, as soon as he entered the attack range, he would immediately launch an attack and kill him in seconds!

But suddenly, Ji Chen stopped, as if thinking of something, "You guys came out of the Silver Islands, right?" ”

Qiao Yixiong was stunned, and nodded subconsciously, "Yes, what's wrong?" ”

"Actually, I'm what you call it, the one who took the lead in letting the ship sail to the Silver Islands."

They couldn't help but be stunned, and Qiao Yixiong's face suddenly changed greatly, and his voice was violent.

"He's seen through it, and he's going to attack right away—"

The next moment, hundreds of amphibious troops, devil frogs, fish people, snake people, and mussel people, rushed out of the sea and killed him.

Yo ho, what about an underwater zoo across here?

The corners of Ji Chen's mouth curled up and sighed.

"Why? I just wanted to dig up a treasure in peace..."

In the air centered on him, the water burst out, and hundreds of water blades suddenly condensed, and immediately scattered like blades.

The blade enters the body, like a silent waltz.

Silent, but deadly.

Qiao Yixiong and the others watched this scene in amazement.

Hundreds of amphibious arms have been wiped out in a few breaths.

They weren't even fully on the tidal flats before they were killed by countless water blades.

The surface of the sea was instantly stained with blood.

Is this still human!?

How could a lord possess such great power?

Smelling blood, they woke up from a dream.

"Brother Ji, please listen to us..."

Puff –

The rainstorm of water covered them, slicing flesh and severing bones.

By the time it had stopped, there were five more pieces of rotten flesh on the ground that were unrecognizable.

Ji Chen looked at "them" and shook his head.

It was as if it was the first time he had killed a player, and his heart didn't fluctuate.

The "body" of the dead people suddenly popped out something.

Yo, this is explosive equipment?

Interest rose suddenly, and Ji Chen checked them roughly, greatly disappointed.

Basically, they are ordinary weapons, miscellaneous items and the like, and there is no treasure or anything like that.

These poor ghosts...

Secretly complained, and at this time, a piece of parchment caught his attention.

I picked it up and looked at it.

Suddenly showed a little surprise.

It turns out that this is also a treasure map of Edward, no wonder these players were able to find this place, it was not by chance that they appeared, they also came to find Edward's treasure.

Unlike him, however, this treasure map is much more detailed, and it is easy to find the area through the markings and information on it.

If he dragged on on the Silver Islands for a few more days, maybe the treasure would be dug up by a few of them first.

It can only be said that these players are not very lucky, and the time just happened to bump into him, and they also had murderous intentions.

I hope they will pay more attention in the next life.

But they didn't contribute without contribution, at least they sent him a ship.

Ji Chen asked the Naga warriors and the shallow sea fishmen to go to the ship to clean up the remaining enemies.

Soon, the few remaining enemies were cleared, and the Naga warriors and shallow fishmen returned.

Then he called some pirates and told them to drive the ship back.

With this ship, he now has a total of six ships.

Three battleships, two merchant ships, a flagship.

It would take a lot of time to dig up the treasure, so Ji Chen waited patiently on the boat, but no one else found here.

So he had a hard time living a quiet life.

Every day, I slept and slept, fished, played artillery (artillery), visited the islands, and toured the scenery.

Four days later, in the early morning.

Just as Ji Chen was about to do something about life harmony with Alice, Spallo, who was supervising the excavation work, suddenly hurried over and came with a message.

- Found Adamantite in the Catacombs!

The news made him overjoyed.

Ignoring Alice's slightly resentful eyes, she lifted her pants and walked quickly to the catacombs.

As soon as I entered, I saw the pirates at the bottom of an uncleaned pool, pulling out pieces of dark gold metal and neatly placing them in wooden boxes.

The dark gold color is as attractive as the brilliant gold coins.

What a bonus!

I didn't expect Edward to bury so much pure gold here.

Adamantite is the last resource to activate the Hero's Altar!

Ji Chen was quite excited, at first he thought that he would let Raymond buy Adamantite for him after he went back, but he didn't expect to find this kind of high-level resource with the same level as the crystal here.

If there were enough of them, wouldn't he be able to activate the altar and summon a blue Excellence-level hero as soon as he returned?

Two more days later.

The bottom of the last pool was cleaned and all the adamantite and gold coins were dug up.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart and waved his hand.

"Ding~ You got 6,000 units of Adamantite."

"Ding~ You got 988,652 gold coins."

Hiss~

A full 980,000 gold coins...

A second ago, the gold coins he had ever gotten in his hand were only three digits at most.

Now that he had suddenly swiped into a seven-digit coin, he suddenly felt a burst of unreality.

In comparison, the 6,000 units of Adamantite were less eye-catching.

This is really wealth freedom, and you can get rich in an instant.

Such a huge amount of money is enough to purchase a large number of resources and let the territory take off directly!

Ji Chen was in a very good mood and took everyone back to the ground.

After a slight hesitation, he summoned the sea elves and asked them to shoot water arrows towards the passage.

Hundreds of water arrows were fired one after another, and the violent explosion destroyed the passage bit by bit.

Under a burst of indiscriminate bombardment, with a boom, the passage began to collapse downward, and the falling rocks completely blocked Edward's catacombs.

Seeing this, he nodded contentedly.

After taking a group of pirates to the mountain cavern and using the lever to open the gate again, he boarded the Crescent Horn.

The larger the ship, the more manpower is needed.

A ship of the Crescent's size would need at least ten times as many men as a three-masted schooner to be fully operational.

But the pirates he can summon now may not be fully operational even if they are all filled in.

However, when you return to the territory and recruit the Tidal Sea Spirits, you will be able to activate the Crescent Moon more easily.

The other five ships were well mened, and there were not many pirates who could be assigned to the Crescent.

So it took them half a day to get the Crescent out of the dock and around the island to the sea beyond the mountain hollow.

At this time, with the comparison, Ji Chen was able to clearly distinguish the specific differences between the Crescent Moon and several other ships in terms of length and news.

To put it simply.

The Crescent is like a blue whale, while the three-masted galleon is a sperm whale, only half the size of the Crescent.

Standing on top of the Crescent and looking at the three-masted galleon, it was like looking at a child.

Suddenly, Ji Chen frowned and thought of a question.

The crescent is so big, how big a pier should be built to accommodate it?

What's more, the bigger and heavier the boat, the deeper the draft.

Like a two-masted merchant ship or a three-masted warship, a large water village can certainly easily accommodate it.

But the crescent number is not necessarily, and now he can only hope that the drawings can bring him some surprises.

Now that the treasure was obtained, the ship was in his hands.

Ji Chen didn't delay any longer, so he set sail, formed a fleet with several other ships, and headed in the direction of the territory.

On it together
