Volume IV Reign of Chaos 65 The Blockade of Gilnes

"Why do you know so many things?" I asked.

The ugly man said, "Huh...... Mixing on this road, it is more important than anything else to be well-informed about this meal. ”

He looked at the beard next to him, "Although the sea looks big, there are not many people who can eat enough, and sometimes it is a life-and-death scene to fight for a bite to eat, and no one wants to become stronger, so if someone else touches the bottom of each other, the consequences are self-evident." ”

"Did you just say that the pirates who just appeared in the south are very powerful?" I asked.

"That's just gossip, the specific situation has not been confirmed, and some of them are just legends, and the more they spread, the more unreliable they become." He said.

"What else do you know?"

"There were some problems within the Stormwind Kingdom, and then there were some robbers, murderers, and this group of guys formed such a gang, although they already have a name, but they have not yet become a climate." He said.

"Oh yes, it is said that they killed the king's queen. Ha! The guy laughed, he clearly didn't believe it.

"Aren't you from the Stormwind Kingdom?" The bartender said.

They all looked at me, and I pouted, "The queen was indeed killed." ”

The ugly man had a smile on his face. I said, "But it's hard to say whether the group of guys you're talking about killed the queen or not, and if I claim here that any fleet is the one who killed the queen?" ”

The man shook his head, "You can't say this kind of thing casually, pretending to be this thing is not only despicable, but once it is found out, it will be resisted by everyone." Although pirates kill people and oversell goods, there are still rules. One person does things one person, relying on strength is the only way to gain fame and respect, fraud is taboo at sea. ”

"What about the goblin pirates? What is their situation? ”

"It is said that the leader is not human, but the sailors they hire are human, and most of them are Kurtiras, and some of the pirates of Kurtiras do not know what methods they used, but now many of them have taken refuge in the command of those monsters." He said. "And this group of guys is actually the most influential to us, and it's absolutely not okay to be by them on their necks."

The bearded man snorted when he heard him say this, "If you say that, I'm starting to support you a little." ”

When I heard the bearded man's words, I laughed with the bartender. They were all bastard bullies, but they didn't bother or hurt me in any way. From an outsider's point of view, they seem to have a bit of a sense of fighting for the glory of the North.

I asked the bartender, "Should I go to the Kingdom of Gilneth by water or by land?" ”

The ugly guy took over and said, "By land, of course." ”

Seeing that I still wanted to ask him, he said directly: "Forget about the waterway, will there be a ship to Gilneth for a while and a half, they have been closed off for a day or two, at first there were people who wanted to do trade tentatively, but now if it is not for the ship trade over there, our ship will not be able to dock in their harbor." ”

"Then you don't have sanctions?"

"Sanctions? Who can't get along with money? There are always people who are willing to do business with them, and every time they come to trade, it is a large bill of goods, or they don't come, or they come and they make a lot of money. The guy said.

"Isn't that a huge impact on their country's economy?"

"Economy? Ha! Do you still understand economics? The guy crooked his mouth and smiled, "I guess it will be affected a little, but it doesn't matter if the people say it, and besides, what the king of the other family thinks about this matter is not something we can guess casually." ”

"I've heard they're all forbidden to the sea now." The bearded man glanced at the guy.

"Forbidden sea, forbidden sea, of course!" "But they are banning the sea not to prevent pirates, not to protect the sea, but to prevent their people from escaping." ”

"And this?" The bearded man said in surprise.

"Of course, there was a time when there was a lot of trouble, and even fishermen were forbidden to go into the sea to fish." He said.

"And what do they eat?" I asked.

"What to eat? I don't know, but with the ban on fishing and the patrol boats patrolling day and night, it's quite difficult to get out of their country now. ”

"Hmph, as long as you have money, it's not a problem." The bartender said.

"Isn't that nonsense!" The bearded man said. "When the money is in place, it's easy to say anything."

"Ha, you don't know, something similar happened, but then it was found out because of the issue of sharing the spoils, and they were all hanged." He said, "I've been there, and now there's a very perverted whistleblowing system over there. I felt depressed when I went there. ”

"So more and more merchant ships began to avoid them, and for a while the ship from Kurtilas to Lordaeron was intercepted, searched, and seized by the Gilneth Navy when it passed through the waters of Gilneth, anyway, there were many reasons, and after the negotiations were completed, it also delayed the sale of people."

"And the people of Kul Tiras can spare them?"

"The internal problems of Kul Tiras have not been solved yet, let alone this matter." He said.

"What then?"

"Pay the deposit and pay the toll." The bearded man snorted.

"Isn't this a robbery?"

"What can you do?" The bearded man looked at me, "Now Kul Tiras is said to ...... It's not that strong. ”

The man nodded, "If you were still strong, you wouldn't be able to grow the pirate power now." So the current Kurtilas caravan can't be provoked and can't hide? Basically, all of them took a detour to Nanhai Town to dock at the port, and it gradually became like this here. ”

"What did you just say about Kul Tiras?" I asked.

"The current Kurtilas is far worse than a few decades ago, since the Prodmore family was severely damaged in the orc war, their family's foundation has become unstable, and the hearts and eyes of some of the subordinate generals have also begun to move, and their four major families have actually been at odds with each other." He said.

"Are you going to Kurtilas or Gilneth?" He asked me.

"Gilneth."

They all looked at me, "What are you doing there?" "The bartender asked me.

"There's a friend I want to meet him."

"Humph!" The laugh made his stinky face even uglier, "It's not that simple, my friend. ”

"Is it that serious?" I'm still deeply skeptical.

"Do you think they're joking in seclusion?" His face was full of disdain, "You're going to go to their place, and you're going to have to ask for a paperwork." ”

"What paperwork?"

"It's just that you have to have customs clearance documents and acceptance documents and things like that." The bearded man said.

"What a mess!"

"Your friends aren't in that country where you can see them if you want to. You have to write to him first, and then ask him to make a report, and after the report is completed, they have to review it, and then they have to pay a bond, and after the deposit is paid, their officer will give your friend two documents, one for him to keep, and one for you. Then you take this document to the local port authority, like let's open a certificate, a certificate of innocence or something, and then you take these two documents and go on the road! The bearded man said.

"It's so complicated!" I was shocked.

"Where is this? When you get to their harbor or gate, they'll ask you a lot of questions, and if they don't like you, you'll have to go back the way you came. He continued.

"What a strange rule this is!" I looked at the ugly guy in amazement, who was looking at me with a single eyelid.

"It means you have to bring more money." He said to me with a smile. "And......" he let out a hard breath through his nose, "you have to be careful over there, too, especially before your friends touch you." ”

The bearded man nodded, "I've heard about this too, you...... Are you going to find your friend? Outsiders like you will be monitored. ”

I frowned.

"This is not to scare you, this is the city that has the most frequent contact with the Kingdom of Gilneth at the moment, and it has been in the past few years. We've heard enough of this weird thing. When you get to Gilneth you will be monitored, and if you are found to have something that might make them think about it, you may be arrested. ”

"So serious?" My eyes widened.

"When you go to their country, it's better for outsiders like you to hurry up and leave, if you want to spend, they are welcome, but you will bear the consequences. Also, I advise you not to think about travel or the like, you are in that place...... You can't go anywhere with who you are. ”

"Huh?"

"Someone will follow you." The bartender was serious.

"You know that, too?"

"Most people here know. And...... It's best not to lose your documents, there are only two kinds of costs for losing them, one is that you or your friends ransom you out of the bank, or you ...... will be caught digging coal in the coal mine. The bartender said slowly.

"The king of this country is stunned." The bartender said, gesturing to his head.

"Are you still going?" The ugly man laughed out loud.

I looked at him and didn't speak.

This was the end of the chat, I walked out of the tavern and stood on the edge of the pier looking out at the sea in the distance, but I felt very uncomfortable, not that I had no place to go further north, nor that I had no place to live, but that I could not live if I had no place to stay, but ...... There are still people and things in the south that I care about. Maybe I should take a boat back, I don't know what happened to Edwin now.

Actually, I don't know how I got here from the Stormwind Kingdom, I remember that I was clearly in Katrana's room, and she was clearly not a person, and she breathed fire at me......

Edwin was right to transfer, that woman was not simple.

I didn't care what year or month it was, so I never knew what month it was, what day it was yesterday, so I don't know how long it has been since that night.

I'm clear, but I'm confused.

Just then, a voice came from behind me, "Do you still want to go to Gilneth?" ”
