"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

A crisp knock came from the wooden door of the house.

Sigget's voice rang out outside: "Arka, are you ready?" I'm going to sea today. ”

"Right away, I'll be right away."

Alka, who was in the room, had just been ready, picked up a piece of bread from the table, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it twice, and rushed out of the house.

Looking at the bread in Alka's mouth, Siggert wanted to ask him if he didn't have a word for breakfast, but swallowed it back.

I had to pull him and said, "Then let's go quickly, the ship should be about to set sail in a few moments." ”

After saying that, he took Arka through the town and came to the port of the island.

Facing the salty and humid sea breeze in the early morning, and the slightly hot sun.

Fishing boats, which could only carry two or three people, slowly sailed away from the port.

Fishing boats on the island usually depart early in the morning and do not return until the afternoon, or even at night.

Only the two galleons I had seen before were still in the harbor.

One of the holds had been opened, and many of the sailors, who had never seen them, were carrying bags and bags of wheat into the hold.

There was also a man who looked like an overseer watching.

"Hug well, don't spill or get wet, these are golden ears of wheat."

There were no bales of wheat left on the planks not far away, and it would not be long before they were all transported into the hold.

"This is Uncle Halls's merchant ship, Uncle Halls you know, right?"

Arka nodded, remembering the man.

He is also a resident of the island, and he can often be seen in taverns or in the harbor, but I didn't think he was doing the work of a merchant ship?

Siggert looked at the sailboat, patted Alka on the shoulder, shook his head, and motioned for them to go up.

"Uncle Halls relied on this ship to carry goods between the surrounding islands, and sometimes I would make several trips to be a sailor on it."

The two chatted, boarded the ship through the attached plank, and came to the deck.

"Hurry up, you slackers, check if the cables and locks are in order, and you ......"

This middle-aged man, who looks a little big and three thick, looks a little reckless, is drinking and scolding the sailors around him.

Arka Memory has not seen him, and should not be a resident of the island.

He was wearing very ordinary linen short-sleeved and shorts, and a long knife with a sheath pinned to his waist.

Suddenly, I saw two people who didn't work and stood in front of me, so I was ready to scold them together.

"It's Sigget, you're here."

With that, he smiled and walked over to Siggett and hugged him.

Then I saw Arka next to Sigget: "This is ......"

"This is my brother, Arka." Siggert introduced.

Arka also hurriedly stretched out his hand: "Arka Raghu, fortunately." ”

"Fortunately, Siggett's younger brother is my younger brother, just call me TOEFL."

As he spoke, he stretched out his broad palm, held Alka's hand, and shook it vigorously twice.

Seems very welcoming.

Sigurt said beside him, "Just an adult, bring him to the ship to see the world." ”

TOEFL nodded knowingly and laughed twice.

"A man of the sea should be a man in a storm, hahaha!"

After a few pleasantries.

There was a clanging sound from the bow of the ship, which sounded like a bell.

Hearing this, TOEFL hurriedly said, "I still have a job, so I'll go first." ”

After saying that, he left.

Before Arka could turn his head, he heard a rough voice.

"Sail!"

Sigurt also pulled Arka and walked forward: "It's time to start the boat, it's a little bumpy, find something to hold and stand firm." ”

The voice fell, and Arka didn't have time to grasp the bezel next to him.

With a bang, the sail was pulled down.

As the wind blows, the canvas swells and the sailboat leaves the harbor.

Sigurt saw that Arka didn't grasp the thing that held his body in place, and immediately wanted to reach out and grab him.

After all, this is the first time Alka, and if you don't get on the boat, you may fall if you don't stand firm.

The shaking and bumps when sailing, it is easy for people who are not used to it to roll into a ball.

However, before he could reach for his hand, he saw Arka firmly nailed to the deck as if his legs had nails.

There was no unsteady standing with the shaking of the sailboat at all.

"You've been on a boat before?" Siggert said with some surprise.

Arka shook his head, he just didn't think the shaking was enough to throw him off balance.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but reach out and touch the ring on the thumb of his left hand.

It seems that the balance and physical coordination that the ring brings are indeed very useful when sailing at sea.

I didn't expect it to be this attribute, which first made Arka experience the strange power.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but walk around on the sailboat that had just sailed and had not yet fully regained its stability.

This feeling of moving smoothly on a shaking object is really peculiar.

"Sigget, look at his posture, what a natural seafaring seedling, like an old sailor."

Arka looked in the direction where the voice came from, and a middle-aged man with a somewhat messy hair and a few white hairs but a well-groomed beard strode over.

He was dressed in a distinctly different costume from the sailors around him, with a brownish-gray leather coat and a hat similar to a captain's hat on his head.

On his sturdy body, he has a very quaint-looking long knife pinned to his waist.

Without waiting for Siggert to answer, he came to Alka's side, patted him on the shoulder, and pinched the muscles on his shoulder by the way.

"Alka, why don't you come and work on my ship in the future, treasure hunting may not be suitable for you. Hahaha. ”

This was none other than the ship's captain, Halls, who was also a resident of the island.

Siggett hurriedly walked over and said in a more smug expression and tone, "Uncle Halls, you don't know, Arka is a real treasure hunter now." ”

As he spoke, he proudly patted Alka's chest.

One is as if he has found a treasure.

Then it was said that Arka had found the magician's treasure a few days ago, although it had already been taken preceded.

"Good boy, yes, I didn't expect you to find it, I really underestimated you before."

Halls looked at him with the look in which he had only known Arka.

Unexpectedly, the child who used to like to play scavenger hunting games has become a real treasure hunter?

Arka immediately burst out laughing, and said in a show-off tone, "Where, where, you really won the prize, little treasure." ”

Seeing that Arka was still the same as before, Hall couldn't help but shake his head in amusement, laughed twice, patted him on the shoulder and left.

Sigertra walked towards the stern tower of the ship with Alka.

After bypassing some of the sailors who greeted them, they came to a small warehouse.

It was filled with all kinds of iron items, like a tool vault.

Several of the wooden shelves were firmly hung with long sailors' short knives.

Siggert went up and found two good-looking, scabbarded daggers, took them off, and handed them to Arka.

"It's ......"

Looking at Alka's doubts, Siggert explained: "This is the sea, there are too many dangers, and you can't protect yourself well without weapons." ”

After Alka took it, he looked at the sailor knife in his hand.

The knife resembles a short knife, probably shorter than an adult's entire arm, with a wide arc and a handguard that extends to the grip.

A weapon that is very good at chopping, with a relatively short blade, it can also be used in more complex situations.

He pulled out his scabbard and looked at it, and a metallic cold glow flashed on the blade.

"But I don't know how to use weapons."

"It's okay, it's mainly used to make you brave, and if you really encounter danger, you at least have the confidence, right?"

Siggett adjusted to the short knife in his hand, looked up and said with a smile.

"And as long as this kind of knife can cut, it doesn't necessarily require much experience, and it can cause damage to the enemy if you slash indiscriminately."

Arka nodded, although he said this, he still liked it in his heart.

After all, this is a real weapon, and it has a blade, and it is compared with it in the hand, and it is also in a few poses.
