On the afternoon of July 2nd, Damir Harbour, "Riptide Seagull", crew restaurant.

Roman and his teammates, who had not seen him for a long time, drank in the crew cafeteria and shared with each other what they had experienced over the past month.

Through chatting with the captain, it was learned that the reason why the "Riptide Seagull" was a day later than expected was because the Royal Navy of Rune blocked a section of the route, saying that there was some important activity in the port of Prieds.

No wonder the "Dream Ocean" took an extra day from Prietz Port to Mill Harbor, and it seems that the route was also affected by the Rune military.

As for the captain's important activities of the Rune military in Port Prietz, Roman probably knew what it was through his recollections.

In Pritz Harbour, Oak Island, the base of the Royal Navy, two days ago, there was a solemn launching ceremony of ironclad ships, which was attended by many dignitaries such as the royal family of Rune, the great nobles, and the members of the House of Commons.

As an epoch-making product, the launch of the ironclad ship is enough to attract much attention.

But the small adventure group that has been at sea is not very sensitive to this, and the news of the ironclad ship is a thunderbolt for those pirate generals and pirate kings.

So the captain and the crew don't know much about it.

However, the ironclad ships that have just been launched have not yet formed combat effectiveness, and they need the cooperation of different ships of various types, and it needs to train officers, sailors and gunners, and it will take at least a year to form combat effectiveness.

In the near future, it will definitely need to be protected from hostile forces, including but not limited to pirates, intis, and Fusaks, who will sabotage the ironclad ship or steal the technical data of the ironclad.

Therefore, in the recent period, in the waters around Port Prieze, the patrol intensity of the Royal Navy of Rune will definitely increase.

Roman shared some of the information about the ironclad that had been made public, as well as some of his own speculations, with his teammates.

Anyway, the ship on his side is an adventure merchant ship officially registered by Bayam, no matter how strong the firepower of the ironclad ship is, no matter how high the displacement is, it will have no impact on Roman and his party.

Captains Fred and Tony also shared with their teammates their plans for the next period of time, docking at Damir Harbor tonight for replenishment and repairs.

Of course, the most important thing is to introduce the Romans to the crew, and there is a little party in the evening.

After that, the Riptide Seagull will set sail from Damir Harbour and head east to the northern waters of the Rorsted Islands.

It is claimed to be going to the western waters of the Beluga Dick Sea to hunt beluga whales.

If anyone is suspicious and investigates, it will be found that our captain, Mr. Fred, has obtained information about a shipwreck, which contains a large amount of valuable cargo, the approximate location of the wreck is somewhere north of Olawe Island, and we disguised ourselves as a whaling ship to salvage the wreck and obtain treasure.

Roman listened to Tony's narration of the matryoshka doll, almost covered his forehead with his hand, looked at Tony, and said helplessly: "What about our real purpose?" ”

"The real purpose is to cooperate with the warships of the Royal Navy of Rune and the Church of the Storm in the waters north of Olave and east of the Moby Dick Sea to fight pirates and obtain bounties, especially pirates with the background of the Rose Sect, of which the 'Admiral of Blood' fleet is the main target." Tony said with a smile.

Roman is not surprised that the Storm Church and the Rune Navy fought against the Rose Sect, but the strength of his own ship does not seem to be enough to see in the face of a strong man at the level of a pirate general.

Roman didn't hide the doubts in his heart, so he asked.

Tony smiled: "Of course we are not the opponent of the 'Blood Admiral', we are just one of the ships that the Church has put in that sea area, the main goal is to collect intelligence for the Church's warships and confirm the target, of course, the 'Blood Admiral' has seven or eight ships under him, and they don't always act together, outside of his flagship 'Flesh and Blood Tree', if we encounter a lone one, we are not without opportunities." ”

Fred, the captain, who should now be called the captain, also said: "Don't be overly obsessed, what the church has given us is a long-term task, dealing with the 'blood general', naturally the strong of the church will come forward, and we are actually not weak, with my request and the help of Roman's growing exploits, the 'Riptide Seagull' has unusually strengthened its firepower and power at the same time, especially power, on the sea, as long as the enemy is found in time enough, ordinary ships will not be able to catch up with us." In terms of security, we are very secure. ”

Roman had no problem with the fact that he had invested his feats in the Riptide Seagull, and on the sea, a reliable ship was often more important than one or two powerful Extraordinaires or Powerful Seals.

Being able to strengthen his ship shows that the Church of the Storm is using those squads fairly for their exploits, and Roman is happy to see that happens.

After inspecting the ship's artillery, Roman returned to the room he had prepared for himself.

He took out the notebook as usual, and first divined whether it would be dangerous to go to sea this time, but due to the lack of preconditions or the vagueness of the problem, the gold coin stood directly in his hand.

Somewhat embarrassed, Roman put the gold coin away and resumed his divination about the note.

"O great god of divination above the gray mist, I beg you to give me a hint if the note in front of me is related to the Antigonus family of the Quaternary Age?"

……

After reciting it seven times in Hermes, Roman flicked the coin upwards and stretched out his palm, letting it fall into his hand, still with the crown facing up.

Of course, for Roman, the results of the divination are not really important, and the point is to take the opportunity to arouse Klein's interest.

Still nothing happened.

In the evening, the crew who had disembarked to replenish their supplies during the day returned to the ship, and at dinner time, Captain Fred gathered everyone on deck.

It was announced that all crew members were in place and that the "Riptide Seagull" was about to sail to sea.

And assigned duties to Roman and others, and at the same time held a party to help Roman and others integrate into the crew.

Roman was assigned the position of First Boatswain, and unlike the more bureaucratic assignments of the Royal Navy, there were more battles on the ships of adventurers or pirates, in addition to maintaining the condition of the ship and managing the sailors, and the position of the boatswain leading the sailors was more important.

Roman, as a warrior, is the perfect candidate for the position of boatswain.

At the party, the sailors were a little restrained in the face of Filogan as the chief ship doctor and Emily as a lady, but they still gave a particularly warm welcome to Roman, who became the "boatswain".

As time passed, Roman found that there were fewer and fewer sailors in front of him, and more and more sailors lying on the ground.

Some of them were drunk and lying on the ground with Roman, and some were lying on the ground after a friendly exchange with Roman.

"I guess I'm mingling with the crew, right?" Roman thought uncertainly.
