After I asked my question, the captain over there was laughing, but his laughter was terrifying, because the guy laughed and started to cry. m /. // Although I do n’t know why he reacted this way, I did n’t interrupt him. He waited for him to release his apology and then said,
We actually tried "But it's useless!" He sighed: "We were very unwilling when we died. How do you hope this robbery can be successful? But we failed, and we were very unwilling to fail, and finally all sink into it Sleep at the bottom of the sea. Because we are not willing to rest, we must not rest. Now we must complete our regrets if we want to rest. Therefore, it is impossible for us to complete our last wish without taking away all the treasures. You also try before leaving us directly But it turned out to have to commit suicide. "
"suicide?"
"Yes. We have tried to run without robbing the ship, but it was indeed not caught up by the fleet, but we never saw the continent according to the route we lived in. The world seems to be only the sea, and we are always in the sea no matter how we sail And in the end we were all depleted of food and fresh water, but we still would n’t die. The people on the boat have n’t eaten anything for several months in a row, everyone is like a skin wrapped in a skeleton, but we still Undead, some people went crazy and tore off their skins because of hunger, and then ... "said the captain of the pirate here stopped for a while before continuing:" Everyone was stupid. The guy who ripped his skin. I actually used the skeleton to move on the boat. Although the internal organs disappeared, I was still alive. I could feel intolerable hunger and desperate thirst, but we could n’t eat anything. We could n’t drink anything Water, that way of living is more painful than death. Finally, after everyone's discussion, we had to dig the dreamer by ourselves. The dreamer is the name of the ship. After we sink the dreamer, we sank with it, so the moment when the dreamer touched the bottom of the sea. The reincarnation continued again. As long as we do n’t complete our wish, This reincarnation will not end, so we have to rob, have to flee, have to fight, and have to die! "
"It sounds miserable, okay, considering that I can't go out if I don't help you, I decided to help you fulfill your wishes."
"Hahaha, you are really realistic!" Captain Pirate seemed to like my argument and laughed. Then he walked up to me and grabbed one of my hands, raised it, and shouted at him, "Guys, we have a new crew member. Let's try to grab the ship and let us try again Death journey. "
"Oh ..." The captain responded with cheers. It was obvious that the captain's prestige was very high, at least the crew loved him.
As the cheering gradually diminished and the captain was preparing to let go of my hand, I suddenly shouted to the surroundings: "No. Let us not try the journey of death anymore, we will return with the treasure this time."
The pirates around them just staggered for a moment and suddenly reacted again and cheered again, then yelled "Return with the treasure" and then began to work hard.
Because it had been occupied by the pirates over there, the ship over there was pulled forward without any resistance at all. Then the pirates began to move supplies. I was going to ask the Kirin Samurai to help, but it didn't matter that the pirates were fast. To be honest, the robbery process was actually very smooth. The people on the opposite side gave up their resistance after they found that they could not run away. Therefore, no fighting actually occurred during the robbery. This is actually a strategy used by the pirates, that is, the pirates will let go of the people on the non-resisting ships, leaving them enough supplies to return to the sea, and the pirates will not To kill the captives, they just drove them all to the sea, and tow or sink the other's ship as the case may be. Of course, most of those who dare to go into the water would be dead. Because of this differential treatment, many merchant ships will run first after encountering pirates. If they cannot run, they will simply surrender, because resistance will be killed, and resistance will survive.
The ship in front of him was an unresisting ship. The pirates concentrated the people in the cabin in a cabin and promised that they would be released before they evacuated. Therefore, the pirates were able to move the supplies quickly and safely. However, although the robbery was smooth, the pirates encountered a huge fleet unfortunately. The opponent was just downwind, so it was very fast. When the pirates found the fleet, the bow was pointing in the direction of the fleet, which was the state of headwind. According to the captain's introduction, a large part of the reason they were surrounded was because of this direction problem. Because they are headwinds, you must turn around first if you want to escape. After all, you can't cross the middle of the opposing fleet. Only the tailwind can run out of speed. However, when the fleet came, the pirates were carrying the treasures on the robbed ship. The two ships that were fixed together could not make a U-turn. If the pirate ship made a U-turn, it must be separated from the merchant ship, but if it did After that, they don't have time to reattach and continue to move supplies after completing the U-turn. Therefore, as long as they insist on moving all the supplies, they will be surrounded, and the only way if they don't want to be surrounded is to run away from those supplies in advance.
I saw the incoming fleet as soon as the pirates started to move supplies, but it wasn't what I saw, but the birds. Now that I know that there are enemies to come, I naturally send a scout to explore the way. The pirates knew that the fleet was coming, so they were not surprised when I told them, and after the pirates carried one-third of the contents of the ship, the opposing fleet finally appeared here. In their sight. (Please use our Pinyin domain name to access us.)
Because I heard the captain of the pirates talk about the reasons for the siege just before the fleet arrived, I was not in a hurry at this time, because I had thought of a solution in the previous period.
"captain."
"What's purple?" Captain Pirate had already introduced each other to me. And he can see that I am strong in combat, so he is kind to me. Of course, the attributes that affect my attitude also play a big role.
I pointed down at the fleet over there and asked, "If we turn around early. Can they still catch us?"
The captain looked down at the fleet over there, and thought for a while, but finally shook his head and said, "I don't know. But I explained it to you before, and now I ca n’t turn around the ship after turning around. And this is fixed at I ca n’t make a U-turn when we are together! "
"Just tell me if you can turn around now and run away." I emphasized again.
The captain probably guessed that I might have a way to make the ship come around and evacuate the house. So he seemed to be a little happier, but at the end he said, "I'm not sure. But I can be sure that if you complete a U-turn in advance, the chances of running away will be much greater."
"That's good." I asked after I said, "Is there a rope on the boat? I mean a rope that is thick enough to tow this boat."
The captain of the pirate heard my words and pointed up with a funny face, and then asked me: "Do you think we will lack a rope?"
I looked at the sails above me, and then I realized that this was not a modern warship, but a three-masted sailing ship. As many as a dozen sails of various shapes overhead depend on countless ropes like spider webs. Moreover, just as there are replacement parts for consumables on modern ships, the ropes on sailing boats are also consumables, so they are usually more prepared to meet occasional needs.
"Since there are ropes, it's easy to handle. Please arrange for some people to help get the ropes up, first twist the ropes together to form a few thick ropes, and then fix one of them to the ship to be stressed Somewhere, I am going to let my hand down to tug. "
"tug?"
"Oh. It's hard to explain right now. You first have the rope ready, and you'll know when you meet. I won't hurt you anyway."
The captain thought about this too, so he immediately commanded the crew to start busy.
For the crew on a sailing boat, cooking the ropes is a basic skill, so it is quickly completed. The rope was split into strands as required. They were respectively fixed to the place where the ship could bear the weight, and finally the rope head was unified to the bow and waited for me to find a hand to drag down.
After everything was arranged, the captain ran to me and asked, "What now?"
I waved, "Don't worry, let's get off the boat first."
As soon as the captain heard it, he said, "Isn't he telling you? I can't make a U-turn, I can't finish the U-turn!"
"It's okay, you can continue to move yours, and leave the U-turn to me. But it may shake a little when you start moving, just call everyone's attention."
Although he didn't know what was going on, the captain nodded and ordered to go, so a pirate commander went to notify other pirates. After replying to the letter saying that I had notified, I nodded and walked to the side of the boat and waved forward. A few cracks appeared in the void in front of me, followed by a dragon chant. Lucky flew from the crack first come out.
Although these pirates have heard of dragons, they have never seen real dragons, especially at such close distances. When fortunately the huge body flew out of the cracks in space, the huge body and the low-frequency wind pressure caused by the flapping of the wings made everyone feel almost out of breath.
The islands have not yet recovered from the huge visual impact caused by luck, and another dragon followed them there. The plague that came out this time was purely larger than lucky, and the result was that the pirates collectively pumped it down. Cool air. However, before they recovered, there were three dragons running out of the crack. These three are of course Crystal, Primary Three and Mira.
In fact, when the three came out, the pirates there all seemed to have just turned into a stone statue with Ye Yue's passion, and there was no response except standing blankly.
The pirates thought that the five dragons were scary. Who knew that my end was not over. After the fifth dragon appeared, the space crack suddenly appeared a bigger head, and it was slightly different from the previous dragon head, but the body that followed it was slender and snake-like, not at all. Dragon. This sixth person is actually a little dragon girl, and the pirates are all Europeans, so they don't know the Oriental dragon. of course. This does not affect their guess of the fighting ability of the dragon girl, because the dragon girl has nine wins in luck and they are lucky. No matter how big the dragon is, it is still within the allowable range of earth creatures, but Shenlong is completely out of specification. Although Xiaolong Nu is not as perverted as his father, Qinglong, and Golden Tianlong, it is hundreds of miles long, and her head is as horrible as a mountain. However, they are mostly more than lucky, especially now that as our level increases, this gap seems to have an increasingly obvious trend.
Did not care about those pirates that have been completely petrified. I stood directly at the bow commander Xiaolongnu and lucky them and said, "Hurry up, help turn the two ships around first."
"Understood." Only luck and plague landed in the sea after receiving my order. Several other dragons were not launched. After all, the two are over 100 meters in length, and the pirate ship is not lucky enough to grow up. If several dragons rush up, they will not be able to perform.
After launching, one lucky and plague stopped at the stern of the pirate ship, one stopped at the bow of the merchant ship, and then the two worked hard together, and the two ships moved immediately under their impetus. Because I didn't grasp the strength, when I started pushing, the hull vibrated a lot, and many people almost fell down. But this woke everyone up. The pirate captain responded the fastest. The first one jumped up and shouted, "What are you still doing? Work hard? Maybe there is hope for success this time!"
The captain's words immediately aroused the enthusiasm of the pirates, and they began to shout to rush into the cabin to carry supplies, and the speed was amazing. However, even so, when they moved everything, the fastest warship that rushed over was already in range. However, compared to the previous situation. Now we have one more advantage, that is, the bow has been transferred, and the sail has been raised. Not having to make a U-turn within the range of the enemy's artillery not only means a dangerous voyage is missing, but more importantly, it saves a lot of time.
"Hurry up, this time we are going to escape the day of birth!" Captain Xing grunted enthusiastically to catch the last skipped pirate. Then the chief officer on the boat immediately took the crew and adjusted the springboard and cut off the anchor cable connecting the two ships. The Dreamer, who had already sailed a long time, immediately broke away from the merchant ship, and then began to accelerate forward. He was behind a huge and unimaginable fleet. At a glance, the number of ships in the past was definitely over a thousand. This number Even the modern battleships of our guilds had a headache for a long time, let alone this wooden shell sailing ship? Fortunately, we don't need to be entangled with them, now we just need to run.
"Fast and fast, full sails." The captain yelled and ordered.
I grabbed the captain and said, "Don't, don't sail."
The captain apparently froze for a moment. If he had to draw a knife and chop people normally, but because I summoned the luck before, they were too powerful, so this time the captain still hesitated for a second and asked, "Why? How can we run past those warships when we sail? "
"No, sailing will only reduce our speed, but don't forget my men." I said, making a special gesture to the sky, and then Xiaolong girls landed on the sea.
I did n’t come up to help make a U-turn before because there is not so much space around the hull, but if you just pull the rope, you do n’t have to squeeze together. The pirates I put on at my request dropped the anchor directly, and then the little dragon girl passed directly through the bottom of the ship, then the two front claws caught the two anchors one by one, and then they began to swing their bodies violently. Swim forward.
The crew members who wore it watched as the iron cables connected to the anchor were pulled into the water, and then the chains around the bow became less and less. After that, they suddenly became straight and followed the whole ship. Moving forward, many people on the boat were shaken, but most of them caught things in time.
After a sudden acceleration, the speed of the hull gradually stabilized, but luck and plague fell down one after another, then each took a rope from the boat and held it in his hand to swim forward. Suddenly the speed of the hull surged again. But this is not over. Mira, Xiaosan, and Crystal fell into the water one by one, and Mira and Crystal also each pulled a rope, while Xiaosan simply pasted directly from the stern and pushed forward with his head against the stern.
We haven't calculated how big the six dragons are. Anyway, now the pirate ship is about to become an airship. Under the traction of the six dragons, the entire ship almost left the water, feeling like the kind of wakeboard dragged by a motorboat, and only one wave would suddenly fly up. Then it fell to the water and went hurricane. The oncoming sea breeze on the ship's deck forced the crew to narrow their eyes, and they clearly remembered that their current direction should be downwind, but the airflow felt from the front. What does this mean? This shows that the ship has exceeded the wind speed.
Generally speaking, sailing boats that rely on the wind are definitely not faster than the wind, even if it is downwind. The speed of the ship must also be lower than the wind speed, because once you are equal to the wind speed, the wind is forbidden for you. How did the sailboat move in the absence of wind? As for faster than the wind, this is a dream for sailing. Because if you are faster than the wind, then the downwind will become the upwind. At this time, the sails will not only generate power, but will generate resistance, which is why I do not let the captain hang the sails.
Sailing behind us are all sailing boats, which means that they cannot run past the wind speed, and now we exceed the wind speed, which means that we must be faster than them. In fact, it is exactly the same. There were six dragons pulling it. It would be strange if the ship could not run the junk.
"Wow hahaha. Brother Ziri, you are so goddamn! It seems that we can rest in peace! Hahahaha, Emperor Fleet, go fart behind us." Looking at the fleet that narrowed in view, the pirate ship Chang has been a bit smug.
In fact, not only are the pirate captains now, the little pirates are doing the same. Everyone is living at sea. Who has seen this speed before? Afraid to be able to run at this speed? It's time for a battleship to have this one-third speed to celebrate with champagne.
The whole pirate ship was completely in the midst of such jubilation, and the subsequent fleet was completely wiped out. I later sent a flying bird to investigate, but I did not see the fleet at all. The description is really far. However, it is strange that we are still on board. It is supposed that the captain will rest forever after the wish is fulfilled, and I should return to the wreckage under the sea? But why are we all still here?
"That ... Captain?"
"What is President Purple Sun?" The captain, who was able to get rid of those fleets, heard my voice and turned back immediately. Now the pirates on the boat almost see me as a god, after all, they ran out in such a brutal way. They never thought about it before!
I asked the captain's attention before I asked, "Aren't we supposed to have finished our wish now? Why are we still here?"
It was as if the sound being broadcast was suddenly unplugged, and the whole ship fell into a deadly silence in an instant. Only the sound of the hull traveling at high speed outside hitting the waves was still ringing.
After a long pause, the pirates on the ship suddenly recovered from the noise, but they were no longer cheering, but gathered together to discuss why they had not left. After discussing for a while, a pirate suddenly proposed an Answer that might be the problem.
"Do we need to bring the treasure back to Treasure Island to count?"
"It's very likely." The idea was immediately supported by most people as soon as it was proposed, so our route began to change, and now the task has become finding the treasure island. But ... a few hours later, we finally found out a thing that Treasure Island was gone.
The pirates have navigational equipment that can be roughly positioned at sea, so they could have found the treasure island. However, when we reached that area, we actually saw the ocean. As Captain Pirates said before, they have never found land here, always the sea, and this location should be where the treasure island is located, but now it has also become the sea. The only explanation is that there is no land in this world.
To put it bluntly, this world is the result of the pirates' mortal obsession. There seems to be no land-related things in their obsessions, so there is no land at all, and of course there are no islands.
"Since there is no treasure island, shall we never finish the robbery?" A pirate asked.
Treasure Island is where the pirates store their treasures. The final step in a complete robbery is to put the remaining treasures after the allocation. However, to me this is a mission world, and the mission cannot be unsolved. Well, there must be some reason why Treasure Island is not needed here, because if you really need it to complete the task, then this task becomes a solutionless task, because there is no Treasure Island in this task world.
I changed my meaning to something they could understand and told them again, and the guys immediately fell into chaos. The captain of the pirate asked a little unbelievably: "Do you mean, that the treasure we robbed did not actually make us rest?"
I thought for a while and said, "I'm not sure, but from the current situation, it is very likely. First of all, this cycle cannot be unsolved. Then, since Treasure Island does not exist, it must be an unnecessary link. And if this link is not needed, then your robbery should have been completed. But the current situation shows that we obviously did not complete your last wish, which means that the successful robbery of the treasure is probably not your last wish. "
"So what is our last wish?" A pirate asked stupidly.
"It looks like you should be clearer than me?"
"But if we were clear, we wouldn't have worked so hard for a wrong goal so many times before?" Said another pirate.
When I heard the pirate's words, I also reacted. It is possible that these guys were very vague about the period before they died, or they were completely gone, so they themselves couldn't figure out what they thought about then. Already. As for their previous vows that they thought they were willing to succeed in the robbery, I think that the answer is more like an answer inferred from experience.
The captain of the pirate thought for a long time and said to me: "President Ziri, I think you can help me to give me an idea? I can see that you are a very powerful person. There were so many intruders before, never No one can help us run out safely, and you made us so easy, so you must be very powerful. Think for us? You must have a way. "
"There is no way but to find a way! I can't go out without helping you solve the problem!" I thought it was a very simple task, but I didn't expect that such a problem actually happened, and I am now worried. In case it's really stuck, it's unlucky. Let's not lose face, let alone the loss of a wish fruit is not small!
Hearing what I said, the pirate captain and the pirates looked at me with an expression of hope, and I had no choice but to start analyzing.
"That being the case, let's analyze it. What have you seen so far in this world?"
A group of pirates started talking rhetorically, "The sea."
"Treasure."
"Merchant ship."
"Fleet ~ EbookFREE.me ~ and ourselves."
"Any more?" I asked.
Pirates, look at me, I look at you, and finally shake your heads together.
Seeing their response was that there was nothing else, so I started thinking about analysis. "The content of the mission must be something that exists in the world, that is to say, your last wish is definitely related to these previous things. The sea is the background, and I think your last wish has nothing to do with it. Treasure is the goal you thought of before, The only idea that can be matched with treasure is to possess it. This is also your previous idea, but it seems obviously not now. "
"What else could that be?" The Pirate Captain asked.
I frowned: "The merchant ship has no resistance, and your impression of it is also very thin, so your last wish should not be related to it. Then the rest is only the fleet. You are sunk by the fleet after the robbery is complete, it is equivalent to having it The duck hangs before it eats it. This resentment should be very strong. If you infer this ... "I suddenly exclaimed loudly:" Your last wish will not be to sink that fleet in its entirety. Right? "(To be continued)
