Chapter 012: Settle in Flower Harbor
Skilled hunters often come in the form of prey.
Using the speed of a magic ship to slaughter smuggling caravans from the Dwarven Kingdom and loot cargo, the Black Sail Pirate does a good job of calculating, but misses a life-or-death piece of information - there is an official (3-ring) stage dwarven priest on board.
The Eight Kings Caravan is more than just a dealer of arms smuggling from the dwarven realm.
When Darra, who claimed to be the exiled prince, blessed with "Divine Grace", "Piety Shield", "Protective Chaos", "Demonization Armor", and "Silence", tore a scroll of "Divine Power", dressed in full body armor and held an enchanted dwarf battle axe, turned into a two-meter-tall giant, chanting the name of "Soul Forger", and jumped more than ten meters onto the Lamentation of Tears.
In an instant, it turned on the Musou mode like a meat grinder.
There was a high wall between the Muggle and the caster.
The pirates, who had been jubilant and morale-boosting, turned into scattered flesh and stumps on the spot, and the Lamentation of Tears, which the Black Sail Pirates were proud of, staged a human tragedy, and the pirates' lamentations suddenly resounded across the sea, and even the depths of the cargo hold could occasionally be heard.
A Rising Star in the eyes of a Blacksail Pirate was reduced to ruins by a dwarven raunt who looked like a god, and Dara jumped back to the deck of the Obsidian at the end of the battle with a massive construct.
That is the "magic machine" that the human nations have joined forces to block the technology of the dwarves.
A fierce battle ended, and after paying the price of a dozen lives, the Eight Kings caravan, which had taken half a year of meticulous fishing to finally succeed, also obtained the biggest goal of their trip.
The decks and aisles are full of blood, and the merchants made of ironwood (?) The ship was also wrecked everywhere.
The caravan had to tinker with it and reluctantly regain its ability to move, heading for the nearest port.
Darra, on the other hand, finds the Tiger Warlock who suddenly disappeared in the middle of the scuffle after the battle.
"Tom, we have captured a lot of equipment from the pirates, and these people also have bounties on them, you have done a lot of work this time, and you will also score a little loot for you."
Hearing the dwarf's words, Chen Zhou couldn't help but be confused.
What did he do?
Didn't you just accidentally kill a pirate?
"Have you forgotten that you also blew up one of their bow guns?" ”
With the shortened range, even the lowest hit rate of the gun can be hit.
Not to mention that the investigation later revealed that the chaos caused by that cannon also caused the result of killing 1 and injuring 3.
Blowing up a ship's bow gun is no small feat.
"Oh, just convert it into money or the general equivalent."
Chen Zhou nodded with interest, he was actually quite content if the caravan didn't kill the cat.
After all, he is a true foreigner who is unfamiliar with life and doesn't know anything, and he knows a little secret about the other party, and it is normal to throw a corpse on the high sea.
Dwarves are a kind race, and they don't usually do such things.
Of course, even if he really encounters the "blister technique" and "water creation technique", it can guarantee his life.
Seeing that the other party had no intention of choosing the pirate's armament and treasure, and was not even interested in the secondary magic scimitar of the pirate he killed, the dwarf had no choice but to sigh: "Okay, the cat that blindly eats fish." ”
He could see that this Tom was almost as desireless as a mage, and he was either writing travelogues, practicing magic, or fishing and eating fish, and he was definitely an outlier among orcs.
However, in the next few days, Chen Zhou would occasionally go to the deck to observe the appearance of the sailors when they practiced fighting.
After annihilating and sinking the three magic ships of the Black Sail Pirates in one fell swoop, no pirates ever touched the Eight Kings Caravan again.
The Obsidian, which had turned around in order to repair it, arrived at the largest, most prosperous and most romantic port in the Kingdom of Carlos in a few days, the Port of Flowers.
With convenient transportation, spring in all seasons, blossoming flowers, and multi-ethnic and multi-cultural convergence, it is an important transportation, trade, industry and art hub of the Kingdom of Carlos.
With the development of the maritime industry, sea transportation, which surpasses land transportation in terms of cost and speed, has gradually become the mainstream of the times, and the rapid development of commerce has promoted the progress of economy, culture and technology, and brought more employment opportunities to ordinary people.
Because of this, when the Obsidian docked to repair and planned to travel overland to the Hachiwang Mountains.
Faced with Todak's invitation to go to the Dwarven Kingdom together, Chen Zhou regretfully declined, and after settling the wages and booty of the trip, he happily decided to settle in the Flower Harbor.
At this time, after experiencing the ups and downs and witnessing the primitive fighting, he has completely cut off the magnificent adventure thoughts, and is determined to work in a comfortable environment, make money, enjoy life, accumulate XP, learn magic skills, and work hard to exercise magic to ensure his personal safety.
In the end, he used the money he earned from this trip to buy a commercial residence on the street with a total of 200 square meters of upper and lower merchants, with a small courtyard and furniture.
He was even rich with more than twenty gold coins.
In a previous life, I wouldn't even dare to think about it, but in this vast and sparsely populated world that has not yet been fully developed, this situation seems quite normal.
If Chen Zhou can save some money, it will be enough for him to live in Fanhua Port for about a year, and he will definitely be able to settle down no matter what......
……
"Alas, going to sea in this era is too dangerous, and I sank three pirate ships from the Northland to Carlos alone, and I really can't go to sea again in the future."
While complaining about this unfortunate journey, Chen Zhou, who had already taken advantage of the opportunity provided by Level 2 to replace the "Bubble Technique" with the "Invisible Servant", commanded the invisible magic force field to clean his first home in this world.
Pay in the afternoon and check in that night, this speed is quite explosive even in this world.
Guy ran a tavern here by the previous owner, but died tragically when he accidentally intervened in a dispute with a drunken foreign professional - in the form of a whole person being cut into four parts.
The owner's son was so excited about the Flower Harbor that he just wanted to get rid of the tavern and return to his hometown as soon as possible.
Strictly speaking, this is a murderous house, but I heard that murderous houses are too common in this world, and there is no way to worry about it.
"There are still a lot of tavern utensils on the first floor, and there is still a lot of wine left in the cellar, so why don't you just open the tavern?"
Chen Zhou was thoughtful.
He has no stable financial resources, and he is not suitable to take the public examination or join an organization until he can protect himself...... What should others do if they let themselves fight and fight hard?
If you continue to open this old cat tavern, you will hardly need to prepare any formalities, and it will be open directly tomorrow.
The problem was that he had to live here, the tavern was so noisy, and his new body had excellent hearing.
Drunkards, fights, and all kinds of filth can visibly affect mood and rest.
Just think differently - turn it into a shop and sell items made with magic!
