Chapter 1438: Bad choice

After leaving the ship hired by Jason, Leo and Sylvia did not go to the other three ships to interrogate the other three Jason’s colleagues. It is not difficult to see from Jason’s situation that these four people are in their The status in the Light of Organizational Civilization is not very high, and the things they know are almost the same. Asking one is equivalent to asking everyone.
"They are not the main force." After returning to the cabin of Petting, Sylvia suddenly said a word without end.
However, Leo understood what Sylvia meant, nodded slightly, agreed, and then said: "The best place to collect energy information is the center of the battlefield, so Kakilan’s gold ship and the Pirate Alliance’s There should be a lot of non-human beings disguised as humans on board."
"It's a bit messy," Sylvia said, rubbing her forehead.
"Although it is chaotic, it will not affect us. The things we prepared can still be useful." Leo smiled confidently and excitedly said: "I am looking forward to it more and more."
"Me too." Sylvia also showed the same excitement on her face. It seems that she can't wait to see what she and Leo have prepared for the gods of this world. After all, things like slaughter gods, no matter what It is a great cause to be proud of in any world.
A little bit of time passed. Although it should be daytime, the sky was still gloomy and dim. There was no wind at all on the sea, and the atmosphere was depressed and made people feel inexplicably suffocating.
As long as it is clear to those who are discussing life on the sea, this kind of sky is definitely not a good thing, because it indicates that a sea storm is brewing, and from now on, there is a thick layer of dark clouds and no marginal clouds and calmness in the sky. Judging from the dead sea surface, the scale and destructive power of this storm is definitely not small, which is a very bad thing for all those who are still at sea.
"Anchor, fix the rope, put down the sail..." With a similar order sounded on different ships, the five ships docked at Horseshoe Bay were all doing the same thing, looking for a suitable docking location. The extra fixed anchors on the ship are put down, hooking the reefs under the water, using the power of the reefs to stabilize the hull, avoiding excessive drifting of the ship when a storm occurs, and reducing the chance of hitting the reefs.
"Damn the weather! One-eyed, no, blind man, didn't you mean that the weather will be clear and cloudless these days?" The captain of the petting ship, Hareza, cursed the weather, and asked Tagashta: "Could it be yours? The eyes are completely blind, and the power has disappeared?"
"It has nothing to do with my ability," Tagash didn't care about his captain's bad temper. He raised his head and opened his eyes, revealing hollow eye sockets, looking at the sky like a normal person, and said: "This weather is affected by the weather. The gods are controlling, and I have an unknown hunch."
Hearingsa heard the words, and her heart trembled slightly. Then when he was about to ask more specific things, his first officer hurried up from the lower cabin, and then to Healessa, said: "The gold transport fleet has entered. We are in the waters of the Black Reef, and we have almost arrived at Harpoon Island. It is estimated that tomorrow afternoon we will encounter those old guys near the eyes of the bitter water."
"What? They take the line of bitter water and sea eyes?" Heresa's face turned a little ugly when he heard the news, and couldn't help reconfirming: "Is the news accurate?"
"Very accurate." The first officer nodded seriously, and added: "The information passed by the black-necked gull."
The black-necked gull is the most common type of seagull on the sea. Because it likes to fly in storms, it is also called a storm bird. From a long time ago, fishermen by the sea would train black-necked gulls as letter birds for themselves and their families. To transmit information, black-necked gulls became the most important maritime messenger and became the standard equipment of almost all ocean-going ships, even if there are several black-necked gulls domesticated on almost every ship.
However, the black-necked gull mentioned by the chief officer is not a black-necked gull messenger in the conventional sense. In fact, he is talking about a secret intelligence organization along the coast of the New World. The fleet's route information allows the smuggling ship to successfully evade inspections at sea. Because it uses the black-necked gull to transmit messages, it also has the name of the black-necked gull messenger.
This time the Black-necked Gull Messenger seems to have violated the principle of only providing information to smuggling ships. It seems that Kakilan’s gold ships or the Pirate Alliance’s pirate ships have also become interested. In short, Hailesa is contacting the Black-necked Gull Messenger’s hope. When they provided the real-time location of the gold ship and the pirate alliance ship, the black-necked gull messenger did not refuse the business, but readily agreed, but charged twice the usual fee.
Although this fee is a bit expensive, the benefits are naturally many. Just like now, even if he is in the middle of the Black Reef, the black-necked gull messenger can find him and provide him with the information he wants.
However, this time the news provided by the black-necked gull messenger was not the good news the buyer wanted.
The reason why Hareza has such an ugly expression is because the route chosen by the Kakilan gold transport fleet happens to be the worst choice for him, because of the route of the gold transport ship. It just coincides with the route he wants to smuggle, which means that if he continues to follow the original plan, he will inevitably plunge into the battlefield.
There are only two open safe routes in the Black Reef waters. Those two routes have less reefs, less undercurrents, and spacious and open channels. They are very suitable for large fleets to pass through, and are also suitable for the battlefield of two large fleets. Therefore, Hareza speculates that Kakilan will be transported. The golden ship will choose to take the open route, and he can never open the smuggling route through the Black Reef when the pirates have blocked the route and all the ships heading to the battlefield after the war between the two sides.
There are a total of three undisclosed routes in the Black Reef waters. These three are all smuggling routes. The reason why they are not made public is not only because of smugglers hiding, but also because these three smuggling routes are very dangerous.
These three routes are filled with a large number of submerged reefs that can pierce the bottom of the ship, as well as undercurrents that can affect the speed and direction of the ship. In addition to these common seabed killers, those special sea areas full of strange power are also the most dangerous places in these three routes. Because there are still ways to hide from the reefs and undercurrents with conventional methods, but the weird forces in those special sea areas can only pray to God for peace.
When Hareza chose the smuggling route, he chose the most dangerous route from the three smuggling routes, and believed that Kakilan’s gold ships would never choose this route because it has black reefs. The most dangerous special sea area is the bitter sea eye.
As the name implies, the sea water of the bitter water is bitter. This bitterness is not bitter in taste, but a bitterness that permeates the spirit and even the soul. After drinking a little of the water from this sea, even the happier person in the world Will produce extremely strong feelings of depression, and even lead to world-weary thoughts. If this mood is not relieved in time, suicide will be the final result.
Although not drinking the seawater here will not produce such a feeling of depression, but the problem is that the water vapor formed after the seawater evaporates will cover the entire sea area. As long as the ship walks in this sea area, it will inevitably absorb the special seawater here. There is no way at all. Completely avoid the sea water here.
Someone once explored the reasons for the appearance of the bitter water sea eye, and they gave the result that there was a sea here once, and the wrecked body of the sea sank to the bottom of the sea, and the remnant thoughts of the sea contained in it affected the surrounding environment, so they were asked to do it. The reason for this judgment is that from the sky overlooking the bitter water, the sea eye will find that the entire sea area is a huge eye. Except for gods, they don’t think there is anything in the world with such a huge body, so they were the first to give this sea area. The person who named the name was not a random name, but was definitely influenced by some mysterious power.
The early smugglers used a strong hallucinogen to pass the Kushui Haiyan. This hallucinogen can produce a strong sense of pleasure, which just offsets the special power of the Kushui Haiyan. It is just because of this cause. After the hallucinogen is used, the user is basically unable to move normally, so it is necessary to leave a determined shipman, reduce the use of hallucinogen, and control the ship through the eyes of bitter water by his will.
Entrusting the survival of the entire ship to the will of one person is not very reliable. Therefore, out of ten smuggling ships using this method, at least eight of the ten smuggling ships sank because of the collapse of the ship’s will. seabed.
In addition, the use of hallucinogens also has a lot of harm to people, especially its addictiveness will slowly destroy a person’s will and body, so the early smugglers would not choose to go as a last resort. The sea eye smuggling route.
Later, the emergence of diving suits drastically reduced the danger of Kushui Sea Eye to some extent. Although the water vapor of Kushui Sea Eye can still penetrate into the diving suit, the special power contained in the penetration process is also weakened. At this time, when used in conjunction with a small dose of hallucinogens, it can effectively relieve the boatman’s emotions and control the boat to pass through the eyes of bitter water safely.
However, although this method is much safer than the previous use of hallucinogens alone, it is only relatively safe. There are still many ship operators who used this method were affected, and the people and cargoes with the entire ship were sunk. Into the bottom of the sea.
Compared to these other smuggling ships’ use of chance to resist, Heresa has a better way to get through the eyes of the bitter sea, and there is no need to use medicaments such as hallucinogens, and the people on the ship will not. He suffered any harm, so in the past, as long as he walked in the waters of the Black Reef, he would choose the most dangerous route of the Bitter Water Sea Eye.
It is also because he is very aware of the danger of the bitter water sea eye, so he firmly believes that the gold ship will not take this smuggling route, but in the end, his judgment is completely wrong. The gold ship fleet chooses not only to take the bitter water sea eye. This smuggling route may even choose the bitter sea eye as the main battlefield for the decisive battle with the pirate fleet.
This gave Hareza an illusion that the purpose of the gold transport ship was not to transport gold at all, but to entangle the pirates in this sea area, and then drag them to death in the eyes of the bitter water.
Although Hareza had known the choice of the Kakilan gold ship in advance, and had one day to prepare, it was no longer useful for him, because he had no other choice but to follow the original plan. The eyes of the bitter water passed through the battlefield.
Time is not enough to choose another safe route. Even if he walks back at full speed and re-takes a safe route now, I am afraid that by the time he walks halfway, the naval battle of the Bitter Water Sea Eye is over, and the two sides of the Black Reef are definitely He will be completely blocked, even if he has a pass to the church, I am afraid that he will not be able to pass smoothly.
Just as Hereza was entangled in how to pass the Bitter Water Sea Eyes safely, the passengers on his ship were completely attracted by another thing. They saw Barbarisa, Joan, and Petunia all gathered. Leo and Sylvia’s cabin, they came here not because of the upcoming storm outside, nor because of other things, but because of the box on the table now.
After learning that there was a box hidden in the wall of the cabin and that it was an extremely important smuggled item on the Petting, the Barbarisas finally did not hold back their curiosity and took the box out of the wall.
I have to say that the Barbarissas do have some very powerful hands-on skills. They were able to disassemble the iron plate on the cabin wall without disturbing anyone and found the surrounding area of ​​the box. All the protection organs, and the organs were cracked, and the fully enclosed box was safely taken out.
Although Joanne and Petunia also helped them, it was the couple who dominated them. What surprised Leo and Sylvia most was that they were able to persuade Joanne and Petunia to help them.
"You did a good job." Although Joanne and Petunia helped the Barbarissas without telling themselves, Leo didn't blame them. On the contrary, after hearing how they helped the Barbarissas take out the box, they applauded. Nodded, and said: "Your training has been very successful during this period, and you already know how to use your abilities in actual combat, which is very good!"
Hearing Leo didn't blame herself, Petunia couldn't help but relax, and her tight body was relaxed after entering the door.
Qiao An still had a smile on his face, never wondering if he did something wrong, what he wanted to know most now was what was inside the sealed box.
In fact, it’s not just Joan, Sylvia was also completely attracted after seeing this box. After reading it several times in her hand, she also tried to use her own power to test the particularity of this box. , The result made her feel surprised, and did not exceed her expectations.
Sylvia seemed to be talking to herself, as if asking Leo, and said: "What is this thing made of? Why is my power immediately dispelled when I get up? It feels like this material is The same exists to disperse extraordinary power?"
However, Leo looked at the box and said, "Remember the anti-magic metal found in Towsonte?"
