Extraordinary Voyage Chapter 222: Information
Although Ivan sympathizes with their experience, he has no regrets about the long-destined ending. With one hand, he grabbed a long boat equipped on the battleship and threw it into the sea. Milan, who was a little dazed by his side, greeted Gary and William to withdraw from the battleship first.
嘭! Bang!
Milan and Gary, who were a little weak after the madness, followed Ivan and jumped onto the longboat. Several people waved their oars and rushed towards the "Conch" that had not been carried too far by the current.
William took off directly from the battleship, and flew to his own "Iron Bones" with the "Upright Wind Return". Ivan didn't care about him, but secretly admired this kind of very useful on the sea. Flight ability.
【Witchcraft·Activated Plants】Only urge the vitality of seeds for a short time, and these raging vines cannot exist for a long time. And just relying on instinct to attack living creatures, the damage to the battleship itself is not very serious.
So...
Ten minutes later, the witchcraft effect is completely over.
After Ivan took the navy who climbed up from the sea and drove the "Conch" to re-board the battleship, although the deck in view was piled with yellow sand, grave soil, human remains, and dry vines, he There was a real sense of pride in his heart.
The hull is forty-five meters long, with a normal crew of 350 crew members. There are a total of 50 ship-borne artillery on the two gun decks, of which the 24-pounder gun on the lower artillery deck, and the strongest firepower on the "Conch" Compared with the 12-pound cannon, it is simply Chi Guoguo's bully.
In the eyes of the navy who believes that firepower is justice, this battleship is a treasure that can never be changed!
stroked the towering cold pine mainmast of the battleship, Ivan murmured: "From today on, your surname is Garriott!"
"By the way, there is still a problem to be solved..."
To be honest, if William and his "Iron Bones" choose to run away at this time, Ivan is not sure if he will order a pursuit.
Judging from the guy’s consistent comments and subsequent performance in the Moby-Dick port incident, William has been insisting on his own principles.
"Practice not to kill", "Use money to protect merchant ships", "to inform myself as a navy"... Regardless of whether the principles he believes in can be recognized by others, William himself has never wavered.
Even in the eyes of a man with a modern vision, Iwen, a pirate, should be more disciplined than the nobles and navies of many countries.
However, at this time, the "Iron Bones", who had gathered all the surviving pirates under his command, did not rush away, but stayed far away on the sea. Obviously, William, who had received the navy’s life-saving grace this time, was still Somewhat hesitant.
do not escape, the Navy’s consistent attitude towards pirates is self-evident. Fleeing, but contrary to William's principle, and hopes not at all.
"Iron Bones".
In this battle with Bassem, the crew lost more than one-third, and the joy of the rest of his life was followed by great sorrow. The companions who got along day and night almost lost half of them in an instant. Even in a high-risk industry like pirates, the morale will inevitably drop.
But as the captain, William knew that the current "Iron Bones" is far from being able to breathe a sigh of relief.
However, stretching out the head and shrinking the head is also a knife. William has decided to go to the young captain who had just met not long ago and try to negotiate the fate of the "Iron Bone".
In a heavy depression, he spoke lightly to the crew:
"You guys are ready and wait for me here. In case of an unexpected situation I can't come back, the chief mate will automatically take over as the captain, and you can set sail and try to escape!"
After talking about this vicissitudes of life with cyan stubble, the middle-aged man laughed at himself. If I knew that there would be such a day before, would I not be so arrogant when I first met...
At least he now knows that with two light battleships and a roughly intact battleship, as long as the Navy wants to chase, the "Iron Bones" with its damaged sails will never escape.
The only hope for people like myself to survive now is that the young navy officer can hold his hands high!
Seeing his captain William was about to glide to the battleship controlled by the navy, the crew could not help but hesitate.
"Captain?" The bronze-skinned young man with several scars on his body gently grabbed William. At this time, the life and death of the Shanghai Navy's ship was really unpredictable.
"It's okay, this life has already been picked up. And just survived from Bassem, you don't want to fight the navy again? We can't win."
And, although he has only seen it twice, William could see that the young navy captain is not a person who is obedient to the ordinary and willing to be ordinary.
After all, the pirates under his pirates did not notice when they jumped into the sea in advance, but it does not mean that they did not notice, that is a naval officer who can use witchcraft!
He felt that a bargaining chip in his hand might arouse the interest of this "mysterious" young man and win the life of "Iron Bones".
Fluttering--
However, before he really left, a white seagull had already flown in front of him.
William, who has a "straightforward" temperament, can't understand it, but Ivan knows very well that even if there is any py transaction, it can't be put in the public place.
I was not prepared to defect to the navy, and the witchcraft crew I used could ignore it, but no matter what the high-sounding reason, it would really be impossible to just let William go away.
"Quick! Fix the sails, the fastest!"
The moment he saw this seagull, William knew that there was a high probability that he would pass this level safely.
Since the other party took the initiative to send a messenger, he has a tendency to talk about it. What he fears most is that this young man is just as high-spirited as he was in the past, and he wants to scrabble rabbits and turn "Iron Bones" into him. The spoils!
"Your Excellency! Please follow me."
right after the dazed pirates gave orders for not knowing what happened. William bowed slightly to the white seagull, and walked to the captain's room first. The next thing was not easy for the pirates under his own to listen to.
After a while, in the captain's room with very simple decoration.
William sits in his chair, and on the back of the chair opposite him stands a snow-white seagull, speaking as if talking to himself in a room without a second person:
"Thank your Excellency for your help, I will remember the grace of saving the Iron Bone, William Iron Bone."
Even though William’s EQ has not been very high, and even his temper is stinky and hard, he still knows how to say it at this time.
only talked about the navy's kindness to me, and never mentioned that Bassem itself was the navy's hunting target, and the battleship that had fallen into the hands of this young captain.
"Hehe..."
The plain two words are a golden way of talking, especially when they take the absolute initiative, the weaker party can even figure out 10,000 meanings from it.
As a normal human being, William naturally couldn't see its true thoughts from the face of a seagull. He thought a little bit and could only throw out the chips he had prepared.
"Of course, even though I am a pirate now, I also know that there is no free lunch in the world. You may not be concerned about ordinary gold and silver treasures, but there is a piece of highly valuable information here. You will definitely Interested in ~IndoMTL.com~Information?" To be honest, I didn't expect much from William this time, I just wanted to find a reason to let him go. .
Now that he said so mysteriously, Ivan suddenly became interested.
"That’s right! People who wander on the sea understand the importance of intelligence! Accurate nautical charts allow us to sail smoothly, treasure maps hide infinite wealth, and information about merchant ships going to sea allows us to find those smoothly. Fat...cough cough."
Speaking of proudly, William almost forgot that he was a naval officer in front of him. He coughed awkwardly to cover up the past and continued:
"Ahem, and the information I have in my hands, it is possible that you can make a great contribution! It is even more creditful than killing the great pirate Bassem this time!
As a naval officer, as long as he has an official position, isn’t wealth or anything coming? ! "
has already said that William didn’t mean to sell it. He directly stated his own information: "When I first met, your Excellency should have known that I got the movement of'Octopus Ghost' Harkins in advance, and was already prepared. Leaving the east coast of the Black Sea.
Although there was some accident in the back, my source of intelligence was completely fine. "
Leaning forward slightly, William deliberately lowered his voice and said, "In addition to participating in the Moby Dick Port Massacre, some of Hudgens’ subordinates actually went to another place. And that part is what he really is. His direct line is the **** confidant of the Pirate King!"
