Waves on the sea are undulating, and white waves rise on the dark waves.
The gray clouds in the sky gathered together, covering the entire sky, and the same gray haze filled the sea, completely obscuring the distant horizon.
A gust of damp and cold north wind brought a bone-to-heart coldness.
This kind of weather was originally not suitable for going out to sea at all, but several fishing boats hung their shabby sails and struggled stubbornly in the waves.
Their thin bodies seem to be toys in the hands of children, violently bumping up and down, they were just pushed to the top of the wave by the waves, and fell to the bottom in the next second.
Navigating a small fishing boat in such sea conditions undoubtedly requires great skill and courage.
On the messy stern, several dark-skinned fishermen were desperately pulling up their fishing nets against the waves.
Their bodies were already wet by the waves, and when the sea breeze came, they all shivered with cold.
There was even one and a half-year-old child, whose lips had already turned blue, but at this time they also used the strength of suckling to pull the fishing net desperately.
When they tried their best to drag the fishing net on the deck, they were already breathing hard.
However, the few fishermen immediately saw the prey in the net and were surprised by the fact that the net harvest was very good. In addition to some messy trash fish, there was also a big fish that grew to almost one person.
"It's a golden fish. Look at this physique weighing at least two hundred catties. This is rich~!" Several fishermen looked at the big fish trapped in the net with excitement, their eyes seemed to be a dream of seeing a bath in a small river Like the lover, he forgot all the cold and tiredness instantly.
Even the half-and-half boy laughed with teeth, and circled the golden fish that was tightly tied in the net.
Such a fish can be sold at the market for at least ten gold coins. Although the money is not too much, it is enough for them to feed for a few days, mend their fishing nets, and even have extra money to buy a few pieces. clothes.
"Boss, this fish will be enough for the brethren to live for a while. Let's go back to Hong Kong, the weather is too bad, I am afraid there will be a storm." A fisherman turned his head and shouted to the helmsman behind the boat.
The gray-haired helmsman had a sullen face and shook his head decisively. He was not excited about hitting a valuable fish. On the contrary, his face was always worried.
It can be seen from the title that the helmsman is the boss of this ship. The leader of the fisherman.
The boss of the boat looked around at the fishing boats that were struggling in the waves like him, and said with a firm tone: "Take another net, and then go back."
With hesitant expressions on the fishermen's faces, someone reminded loudly: "Boss. We already have golden fish."
"You know what a fart~!" The boss of the boat yelled impatiently, and said: "A bunch of rice buckets, what else do you know besides fishing?
Grandma, the Demon Race has hit Vatican. Seeing that there are only a hundred miles away from us, don't save a little money. If the Demon Race's kills him, what will you take to escape? "
Several fishermen looked at each other, their expressions becoming heavy. The eyes are full of worry: Yes~! The world today is different from before.
There are flames on the mainland. Although they have not been affected for the time being, they have seen many refugees who have fled. One was all unkempt and pitiful, just like a beggar Hanako.
It also allows everyone to fully appreciate the simple words "people in troubled times are not as good as dogs", and the pain behind it
Every time I talk about it, the fishermen are all anxious.
Therefore, although they themselves are not rich. But once they met those people, they would still be stuffed with two small coins, or steamed buns.
Right is to do good deeds and accumulate virtue.
No one knows when, he will join their team. I hope that at that time, someone will eat two steamed buns just like myself.
At this time, the half-and-half child shouted loudly: "No way~!
I have heard. The empire's flying eagle of war, Lord Nyan's Governor Lorraine, has taken people to reinforce Vatican, and he will surely kill all the demons. "
The boss of the boat gave him a vicious look and said, "You little bastard, I'll smoke you when I go home. I've already said that. Let you stop hearing about the nonsense of the book.
That Lorraine is really amazing, why not kill the undead high priest directly?
That's all nonsense.
There is never a word of truth in the official's mouth, what they fool is your stupid lack. "
The half-year-old was extremely unconvinced, and immediately stubbed his neck, and he was about to argue.
A person hurriedly grabbed him and moved aside with his hand. Said: "Your Lao Tzu eats more salt than you eat, so you don't want to get mad with him there and make him angry."
The half-year-old snorted angrily, then turned his head and walked aside.
The boss of the boat looked at his back and couldn't help cursing a few times: "If you don't listen to Lao Tzu, sooner or later, your little will suffer."
Another fisherman next to him hurriedly changed the subject, kicked the beautiful big fish beside his kick, and said: "Boss, such a big golden fish can sell more than a dozen gold coins. It's almost enough."
The boss of the boat looked down at the big fish, then sighed for a long time, and said, "Sell? It's easy to say. Who are you selling to now?"
Except for the masters of the Bishop of Vantino, who is willing to spend a dozen gold coins on a fish?
But now that gang of bishops are all trapped in the city, who will buy our golden fish?
This fish is big, but...but it’s not bad to be able to sell two gold coins, alas..."
After speaking, there was another long sigh.
The fishermen suddenly realized: Yes, the top buyers of gold fish are the bishops of Vantino. They have always eat and drink with public funds, so naturally they don't care about the price, and the higher the price, the better.
And the second largest buyer is naturally the local aristocrats and rich people.
And now, Vantino is surrounded. Those bishops are also precarious.
And the noble lords all fled with their families.
Who will buy this baby fish?
In fact, if it wasn't for lack of money, they would have escaped long ago. Who would go fishing in this spooky weather, and if one was not careful, they would feed the fish.
The fishermen fell silent, and then began to tidy their fishing nets. Someone couldn't help but complain: "When will this battle be won?"
"I think it's difficult."
"..."
"Look, what is that?" Someone suddenly raised his neck. Looking at the sea in the east.
The fishermen jumped up and lay their heads on the side of the ship and looked around.
"what?"
"There is something"
"It seems huge."
"..."
In the faint mist, I saw a black shadow moving slowly in the distance.
Although it is still far away, everyone can see that the guy's size is surprisingly large.
"Is it a sea monster?"
"I look like a monster whale."
"Your eyes are blind, it is bigger than the demon whale."
"..."
The boss of the ship had been staring into the mist, looking for a while, and suddenly thought of something. His face changed, and he shouted anxiously: "Hurry up and get ready to turn the rudder. Hurry up if you don't want to die."
The fishermen were shocked. But they have unconditional trust in the master of the ship, so they didn't even ask at all. They all jumped up, hurriedly unwinding and sailing.
The boss of the boat squeezed the rudder hard, controlling the fishing boat to turn in the waves and aiming the bow to the west. This way you can avoid hitting the mysterious big guy in the fog.
At this time, the two sides are getting closer.
Everyone stared at the dark shadow intently.
I saw a group of pure white clouds slowly piercing through the mist, floating against the sea.
The fishermen froze for a moment. Immediately wake up: it is not a cloud, but a sail as big as a cloud.
To support such a tall sail, the mast of this ship is at least tens of meters high, so how big should that ship be?
Afterwards, a large ship sailed out of the gray fog, revealing its hideous bow.
The sharp bow split the waves and splashed two white waves. Traveling steadily on the sea, the wind and waves did not cause even the slightest impact on it.
The ship is as high as four or five stories high, and the smooth hull is densely packed with numerous wooden windows.
The black and gray words on the bottom line of the bow, each word is as tall as a person. At this time, the second half of the hull was still hidden in the fog.
The fisherman patted the boy beside him and said, "Hey, intellectual, what is written on the bow?"
The half-sized boy froze for a moment. Muttered: "Victory... is victory."
Suddenly it seemed as though something had been thought of, he took a breath and exclaimed in excitement, "It's the Victory, the invincible Victory~!"
A year ago, a legend spread across the sea, a huge ship from the East, in the name of victory. Take it as your responsibility to eliminate the pirates entrenched in the sea and wander around in the sea.
The red hair, the cyclops, the iron hook, and the skeleton captain... etc., these notorious, prosperous, pirates who have been at sea for many years were sent to the bottom of the sea.
No matter which country's pirates are, no matter who their backstage is, they are all suppressed.
Even when he fled inland, he was caught back, and then hanged on the pier and hanged.
The order of the sea has been completely renewed. Except for the sporadic small groups of pirates, no one now dares to rob and kill people at sea, or set up a site for protection.
The deeds of the Victory were spread among those people who were begging for life on the sea. In addition to thanking people, they were also puzzled as to who was so insecure and singled out the pirate in the entire sea area.
Some ignorant guys even thought it was the of light who came to this world, rewarding good and punishing evil or something, and there was nothing short of sending incense money to those dead bald men.
Of course, the shallow minds of these fishermen would not understand that Lord Lorraine would never do good deeds for no reason. The purpose of exterminating pirates was to safeguard the interests of the Flying Eagle Group and ensure the safety of the Flying Eagle Group.
Almost all raw materials and goods of the Flying Eagle Group are transported by sea. Before the railroad tracks are spread, long-distance land transportation is simply impossible.
And let alone, Sir Alex was born as a robber. Pooh, he was a dignified soldier. He used to rob someone else’s money. If he was robbed by someone again, he would be ashamed. Up.
Looking at the huge ship like Cui Wei, the boss of the ship could hardly believe his eyes, but it murmured: "Is there really this ship? I thought it was the official brag..."
"The of light is here, it's so beautiful~!"
The tall shape, smooth lines, neat hull, beautiful sails, and the mighty eagle flag on the top of the mast all show the extraordinary of Victory.
On the deck more than ten meters above the sea, a group of seamen in white navy uniforms rushed around.
Especially at the bow of the ship, several people in beautiful white military uniforms stood straight. The fishermen on the fishing boat in that handsome uniform looked bright.
At this time, the several giant sails on the ship were all full, and the Victory was extremely fast, passing several tens of meters beside the fishing boat.
Nevertheless, the waves that plowed the bow of the ship still shot the small fishing boat ups and downs.
The people on the deck looked condescendingly at the fishermen on the fishing boat, glanced a few times, and then turned to the front.
Although only a few glances, the fishermen felt that the people on the Victory were like them standing in heaven overlooking hell. Waves of envy, jealousy and hatred.
The half-sized boy wiped his nose and said enviously: "If I can put on that one, I will be satisfied in this life."
"I'm willing to live less than ten years."
"If I had such a boat, I would not be afraid that Cuihua would not marry me."
"..."
"There is one more~!" The boss of the ship suddenly exclaimed. Awakened the fishermen who were trapped in infinite yy, they all turned their heads and looked back.
I saw another big ship exactly like the Victory, full of sails and slowly protruding from the fog.
Everyone took a deep breath this time.
On the middle sail of this battleship, there is also a huge eagle painted, and the flag on the top of the mast is also a golden eagle flag with a red background, which is different from the silver eagle flag of the previous one.
It would be great to have such a big ship, and there is still another ship with such power in his hands. Is this ocean walking sideways?
"Grandma's, it's really an eye-opener today." The fishermen said with emotion, then patted the boy on the shoulder and asked impatiently: "What is the name of this boat?"
The young man stared at the text on the bow of the ship in the distance, and muttered: "It seems to be... the king, yes, this ship is called the king. What a domineering name."
The boss of the ship smacked his mouth and said, "Owning these two ships is not the king of the sea."
Now he believes that the rumor of annihilation of pirates is no longer a story made up by the government, and that these two ships are enough.
The decorations on the Majesty seemed a little more beautiful than the Victory just now, and the sailors on the boat were also full of spirits. They quickly passed the fishing boat without taking another look at the fishermen. Chasing the back of Victory.
The fishermen were all stupid at this time, staring straight at the two battleships ahead, and said blankly: "Who owns this ship?"
"I know~!" The boy exclaimed excitedly: "I heard that the book said, this is the Flying Eagle Group, that is, Lord Lorraine's boat."
"That Lorraine again~!"
"Looking like this, it must be to reinforce Vantino, maybe we don't have to run."
"Yes indeed……"
The boss of the ship snorted, and said with a stern face: "It may be that the demons have millions of troops, and houses that can fly, and can fight people in the sky. This battle, there are still fights."
"I'm talking about Boss, where are you from? Just talk frustrated all the way."
"That's right, the official said that when the Holy See's army arrives, it will definitely kill the demons without leaving a piece of armor."
The boat boss snorted and said, "You believe what the officials said. They have a carriage, and they are already ready to escape."
Just when the fisherman was about to nag with the boss of the boat, a person next to him screamed, "The God of Light is here, why is there one more~!"
Immediately, the tall figure of the third battleship just penetrated the mist and sailed out in the wind and waves.
The people on the fishing boat were dumbfounded and speechless, just staring at the super large boat. At this time they didn't know what to say.
There is a Victory ship, enough to cross the world.
There are two warships that can dominate the ocean. The warships of contemporary human countries are like small sampans in front of them, and they can be sent to the seabed by collision alone.
There are three ships, there is no need to say anything, this is the strength.
"Invincible," the young man pointed to the bow of the battleship and exclaimed excitedly: "This ship is Invincible~!
The fishermen froze for a long time, and one of them asked quietly: "Is this really Lord Lorraine's?"
The young man nodded excitedly, as if he was more excited than the battleship, and said loudly: "Seeing that there is no eagle flag on the mast, the eagle with its wings spread out is the symbol of the Flying Eagle Group."
The fisherman looked at the Invincible with greedy eyes, and said, "Are they still recruiting people? Even wiping the deck and cutting potatoes on it is enjoyable."
The teenager thought for a while, and recalled: "I heard that as long as it is a skilled worker~EbookFREE.me~, you can get a work visa, and you will be issued a green card after working for the Flying Eagle Group for three years. Mann nationality.
We sailors are also considered skilled workers. In the future, I must go to the Flying Eagle Group to try my luck. "
The boss of the boat opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, just cursed angrily: "Smelly boy."
This would make him feel too shabby when he saw his little poor fishing boat. And working on a big boat is actually much safer than working on a small boat.
"There won't be any more behind this?" The fishermen looked at the mist, and there was another row of battleships out of them, and they would no longer be surprised.
Sure enough, the figure of a large ship slowly sailed out through the fog, but to the disappointment of the fishermen, this large ship was not a battleship, but a transport ship, with the flag of the Flying Eagle Group on the top of the mast.
Subsequently, countless ship shadows sailed out of the fog.
Transport ships, traditional warships, fast gunboats...
When the fishermen recovered, they found that they had been surrounded by countless boats.
The densely packed boats formed an array of dozens of miles wide and dozens of miles long on the sea, surging westward like a black tide.
The twelve war fortresses suddenly pierced through the lead-grey clouds and swooped down in four triangular formations, then pulled up lightly, whizzing through the air against the top of the fleet's masts.
