The rippling blue sea of the West Sea, which only relies on the southeast side of Ikadiva 6 is a shallow sea area where Ikadiva 6 extends outwards
Under the blue sea and blue sky, under the softly floating blue waves, there are large expanses of fiery red blood corals. There are two legends about the origin of this kind of blood corals that sway under the water like flames.
One is because there are large areas of corals growing on the seabed here. These fragile and strong corals have accumulated over the years. After the erosion of storms and waves, and the destruction of passing ships, countless coral reefs are still formed tenaciously. The peaceful West Sea has become a dangerous sea area in the eyes of navigators. Due to the large number of corals and coral reefs,
This middle area connecting the Dylans Sea is also known as the "Devil's Sea"
Because more people would rather believe the second statement, that somewhere in this sea is hidden the coral goddess who is in charge of huge wealth, and she masters the priceless red corals,
If you are fortunate enough to get one, it will rise to the sky from now on and become a rich family that everyone admires.
Among the 6 dignitaries in Ikadiva, it has become a trend to appreciate coral collections,
Especially those red corals that are extremely precious, charming, lustrous, crystal clear, and warm and pleasant.
This is called "the only thousand-year-old spiritual creature with life in jewelry"
I don't know how many people's hearts have been confused.
The sea is so clear, the sea is so quiet, the sea breeze is so soft, and large swaths of red can be vaguely seen in the sea. These stubborn and humble living entities are using years to weave their own miracles and work hard. I want to break out of the shackles of the sea and show my beauty to humans.
Some corals were unfortunately crushed by the hull, floating on the sea, and then sinking slowly. When I saw them inadvertently, I thought they were sea fishes flying freely in the water. Collecting red corals is an important source of fishermen in the West Sea. In order to mine red corals, people have thought of many ways. Some miners even take their lives at the expense of collecting red corals.
Dive into the coral reef that looks like a maze and search for those beautiful elves.
October of each year is the best season to find and mine red coral, because the surface of the Coral Sea is very calm during this month, so calm that the entire sea surface is like a smooth and transparent mirror.
The beautiful white waves will only be drawn when the ship is passing by, and the sea will sway to both sides. Clear to the sea, you can see objects more than ten meters away even when you open your eyes,
The early pirates of the Desi sea pirate originated from here,
In order to resist the lord’s heavy exploitation and forcibly driving them into the sea, these West Sea fishermen living on the nearby island chain were divided into thirty-two families according to their respective islands, and they fought against the navy and local lords throughout the year. In the middle of the world, he has become a fearsome pirate
Arijokaf, known as the "Titan of Ali family", is standing proudly alone on the warship. The setting sun in the sky shines on his handsome and resolute face. The huge fleet of medium-sized fangs is like a flock of geese spreading wings. From his confident gaze, he traverses through the turbulent waves, swinging a huge fan-shaped arc on the sea
"It's really spectacular"
Arizhovka looked at the fiery red sea in front of him, and a kind of pride in controlling the sea surged in his heart. Looking far away, with condescending eyes, he once again looked at the Rudexi Sea, which was destined to be marked by the Ali family.
The ring of coral reefs rises out of the sea shallowly, and surrounds them in an elliptical ring sporadically and orderly. It was like a garland of a bunch of flowers thrown onto the blue sea, and like a string of white jade pearl necklaces thrown onto the sea, it was colorful, and the waves hit the red coral reef, splashing broken white waves like jade.
This beauty with brilliant colors made him deeply attracted."
This kind of beauty is the vast and turbulent sea area of the Zhonghai Sea, which has never been seen before. In the Zhonghai storm, the huge waves tens of meters high can destroy anything on the sea.
But now, all of this will belong to the Ali family
The sound of footsteps sounded softly in the back.
Arizhovka raised her head proudly, without concealing his indifference to the visitor on her face, and asked without turning her head, "Is there news from your forward fleet? What is the stubborn response of the old Moenlake?"
"This is the obvious thing, Lord Zovka." A respectful voice of flattery sounded behind him, and a smiling middle-aged nobleman appeared beside him. "I said it earlier, Monlake That old thing is already old. The gatekeeper of Megatron Xihai is now just a sleepy old dog lying next to the fire.
"Our Jilik family fleet broke through his line of defense almost effortlessly. It has completely blocked the entrance to the sea on Lok Ye Island. As soon as Master Zovka’s main force arrives, it can easily occupy this place. Dehai Gatekeeper’s Island"
This is an old nobleman who has been in his fifties, his head is slightly bald, his eyes are shining with slender and cunning luster, but his face has to pretend to worship Alizhovka infinitely, as if he is the most The humble servant saw the most noble master, and wanted to lie on the ground and lick his toes.
"I want to show up on the tooth ship outside his port, this old thing has panicked, he must be listening to Lord Zovka's name now, hiding under the table shivering."
"Really? Haha"
For the compliments of the old nobleman, Arizhovka just snorted twice without a smile. He is too familiar with this guy who was scornfully called the Jilik Beaver by various families. , The typical master behind the set,
In the Fifty-six family of Zhonghai, the reputation of the Ji Like family is the worst.
Last time this guy didn’t know where to get the news,
It is said that a large number of Salander ships carrying precious cargo will pass through the sea in Ruode, and several powerful families will be robbed together.
As a result, when I ran to the position, I was dumbfounded on the spot. Dozens of ships were as tall and solid as city walls, and there were even fierce-class warships with weapons inside.
The original proponent immediately retreated and gave up even the most basic cover, causing heavy losses to the other fleets.
Arinovka waved to the flattering old beaver. "Then this battle against the West Sea will be entrusted to Master Ji Liko. If you can take Ye Island in one fell swoop and open the way to Rudesi At the gate of the island chain, I asked the family for instructions to hand over the island to the Jilike family as a reward. I heard that this deciduous island is one of the best in the thirty-two houses of Xihai."
"Really, how embarrassed that this is all commanded by Master Ali
"Who would have thought that we would take advantage of the inertia of the rising tide in winter to cross the fiery red devil's horns, which they hailed as a natural barrier, to make these Xihai guys completely defenseless." The old nobleman rubbed his hands in excitement, his mouth Sighed
"This time we dispatched a Yaship, and in the follow-up there will be a main fleet led by the Lord Duke himself. With such a huge fleet, all the guys in the West Sea can add up, and only have to run away."
"Take care of your own business, Lord Duke can't lose you this time." Arizhovka's mouth showed an unconcealable smile. Although this old thing is very slippery, it is still very useful when it comes to words. ,
The plan for this expedition to the West China Sea has already been worked out since the beginning of the month. With the destruction of the main force of Dylans on the sea, the Ali family, which originally expanded to the East China Sea, quickly changed the original direction of expansion and began to turn to power. Living in the West Sea of a puppet,
The predecessor of the Ali family is the well-known Duke of Rude, the Ali Polandu family. At its most glorious time, the family once had a minister of the Ministry of Affairs, Minister of Justice, and Minister of the Navy. Shui rises, full of power, and finally the Ali family and the royal family are married to push the family to the most glorious apex
Fifteen years ago, during the battle with the Swadians in the Szatusco Corridor, the Swadian cavalry sneaked across the defense line because of negligence, and they rushed towards the rear marshal’s headquarters, causing the entire front to collapse. , More than 100,000 people died in the battle, mourning in Germany, and the whole country wounded. With so many interrogations and forces united like a wave, Duke Ali Dolando had to choose to take the blame and resign and exile himself. Kyoto, came to the ancestral territory by the sea to settle down,
This great aristocrat who is inextricably connected with the upper class of Ruode~IndoMTL.com~Naturally, it is impossible for him to sink like this. He will soon be in this new land, and he has never noticed before. Value, through some exquisite diplomatic means, and secret coordination by the royal family, the criticisms against the duke were quickly calmed down,
With the support of certain forces in Kyoto, the Ali family quietly acted as the spokesperson of Ruo Dehai. Under the name of Ruo De Hai pirates, they were actually illegally collecting wealth in the name of private plunder, even in the name of various forces. With the connivance and participation of the Ali family, the power of the Ali family has been declining and the rude navy has become a veritable overlord of the rude navy
The dispatch of troops to the West Sea is an important part of the Ali's naval strategy. The precious red coral resources and the advantage of being close to the Vijay Sea are destined to be the best position for plundering the Vijay Merchant Fleet. ,
As long as a great warship that can sail far away is built, the Ali family's hands can reach the opposite side of the Vijaya sea, and the sea trade is in full swing like a carp crossing the river. That's the annual trade volume of millions of gold coins. If you don't eat two bites on this big cake with golden light, wouldn't you be sorry for this golden sign of Ali's family?
Destiny, the two kingdoms are doomed to start a life-and-death fight on the vast sea, thus opening the prelude to the first naval battle in the Rude Sea. . ..
