Chapter 205 Showdown (Subscription Requested)
In Drake's eyes, captains can generally be divided into two kinds - the idle captain, and the nosy captain.
It may not sound like a good word, but in fact 'doing nothing' is an excellent proof that meddling is what annoys people.
On the sea, the captain's failure to do things does not necessarily mean laziness and incompetence, but it may also be because of the establishment of an excellent management mechanism, and the division of labor layer by layer, the captain at the top of the power is only left to stabilize people's hearts.
Like the statues carved on the bow of certain large ships, it belongs to a kind of symbol. Most of the work is not cared for by them, and there is no need to care.
Doing nothing means being safe, being at ease, and having everything on track. Walking on such a road with the crew, ensuring that each of them can return to port safely, and more importantly, that they can return with a full load every time they go to sea, is what a good captain should do.
On the contrary, being nosy is precisely a proof of not knowing proportion. A captain who wants to command everything, and can't even trust the talents under his command, will not have a smart person willing to follow.
So, which of the above two expressions does Drake belong to?
Obviously, it's the side that has nothing to do.
Drink........ All in all, drinking.
Then binge, games, and drinking.
Most of the days when you are in a good mood are spent like this.
Yes, she's not doing anything at all........
However, the pirate's business, everyone understands it without saying it. However, as mentioned earlier, Drake disdained to do such things, she was past the age where she thought it was cool to loot other people's property.
Or, as a pirate, she was rich enough to have an endless amount of gold and endless rum to drink, and there was no need to go around making revenge.
Although a lot of the British Empire's land has been submerged due to the sudden rise in water levels in recent years, resulting in a great drop in national strength, Drake will not underestimate the national navy of a large country because of this.
In the past, the navy did not come to her, simply because she was more like an adventurer than a pirate, and she didn't want to rob and dig for treasure. And the few votes that I had occasionally done in the past, the navy turned a blind eye to the face of the British Queen.
But that doesn't mean Drake can do whatever he wants in the Atlantic, and if he goes too far, he'll provoke the gentlemen in stockings, and it won't end well.
So, this 'pirate's business', if you can't do it, don't do it, don't make trouble for the naval uncles."
What's more, Drake now has a new joy to have - exploring the Dead Sea.
At that time, in order to distinguish it from the 'Bermuda Triangle', people used the term 'the sea representing death' to describe the area.
In the years he was a pirate, Drake had heard countless stories about that area, and many brave and unscrupulous pirate groups stayed there forever.
Legend has it that Pandora's Box is buried, others say it is the burial place of the Heroic Spirit, some say it is the entrance to Hades, some say that it is the place where Atlantis sank, some say that there are unimaginable beasts sleeping in the sea, and some say that it is the sea where Tetankoros's resentment against the gods gathers.
In short, there are different opinions.
The only thing that is the same is that there must be a great treasure buried beneath that sea.
If someone asks Drake if there's any treasure in the Dead Sea, she'll answer 'yes'.
After all, there had been countless sunken ships, both large and small, and she would make a fortune if she found a box of gold coins from hundreds of years ago.
However, what Drake wants to look for in the Dead Sea is not something superficial.
What she was looking for was stimulation.
Drake is enjoying the adventure, and the harder and more precipitous the process, the greater the sense of accomplishment in achieving the goal.
So, the Navy is right to call her 'Adventurer', Drake is completely different from ordinary pirates, she has no attachment to gold and silver treasures, and her goal is to explore the unknown.
In the future, she also plans to go to the Great Voyage to see what the end of the world looks like.
Of course, it can't be said that Drake has no interest in money, if he can enjoy the adventure and find expensive spices or precious antiques, then Drake will certainly be as happy as a normal person.
But whether or not there is a literal treasure in the Dead Sea they are about to go to, Drake will follow his true heart like a moth that pounces on the flames.
Dangerous? That's just an adventurous flavoring, ah, flavoring!
There is no adventurer in this world who becomes a legend without paying a price, and if you want to explore the unknown territory of mankind, you must be mentally prepared to die at any time.
If she died, it would be her life; If you come back alive, it is the mercy of the sea god, and you must be grateful while saving this life for the next adventure.
This is Drake, a seeker who seems crazy to others, whose curiosity will never be filled, and who will challenge the limits of humanity again and again in the future.
But for now, let her dry the bottle of unmixed rum first.
Drake licked his bright red lips, and was about to close the bottle when there was a knock on the door.
Drake was stunned for a moment, then shouted, "Come in." ”
"Good afternoon, Captain."
After the door opened, a newcomer who had just joined appeared in front of the door - Liu Yuan.
In front of him was a translucent projection screen floating in the air, showing the upper body of a beautiful, plump long-haired woman.
"Hi first meeting, Captain Francis Drake. My name is Leonardo da Vinci, the genius who died twenty years before you were born. Of course, you should remember me, right? ”
Strangely, the long-haired woman on the screen actually moved, not only moving, but also reporting her name to herself.
"Leonardo da Vinci? Talented? Drake looked at Leonardo da Vinci with inexplicable eyes, "I don't know, who are you?" ”
"Huh? ....... Ay!? ”
This was the second blow da Vinci received today, but her self-esteem as an adult made her silently swallow her tears.
No way, who makes knowledge the farthest word from pirates.
"Ahem, in short, it's a Heroic Spirit....... You can think of me as a magician who has come back from the dead. ”
"You say, magician?"
While Leonardo da Vinci was speaking, Liu Yuan closed the door with his hand and said to Drake, who was across a desk and crossed his legs on the table:
"Let's put it this way, Captain - we are not from this era, we are from the future."
