Gamers Are Fierce - Chapter 1119

[Chapter 118 Summoning]

  Tens of thousands of scout bees were flying rapidly in the sky.

  They are covered with light-colored scales that blend with the color of the sky and fly among the clouds.

  Under the surface of the ocean, a larger number of soldier bees, disguised as common fish, swim in all directions.

  From time to time, soldier insects jump out of the water, grab the wood and wooden boards floating on the water, and then sink into the sea. .

  There were indeed sailboats passing by in this sea area recently. On the

  water surface and the bottom, there were fragments of wooden crates and ceramic fragments, which looked like items left by a cargo merchant ship.

  However, the current state of the merchant ships cannot be determined.

  ”The initial island is surrounded by a circle of thunderstorms and strong winds,

  and outside the thunderstorm ring, there is a windless sea area, where there is

  always a small or calm wind, the sea surface is stable, and the speed of the seawater slows down.

  For marine life, there is no wind . The sea area is naturally not a problem,

  but for an ancient sailing vehicle such as a mast sailboat, it is more troublesome to enter the windless zone.”

  Li Ang thought silently, the

  real world near the equator is 5° north-south latitude and north-south latitude . 30°～35°N, historically known as hoe latitudes, that is, horse latitude, another name for the windless belt.

  The specific statement is that the area is a high-pressure and windless zone,

  and sailboats caught in the windless zone cannot rely on the wind to sail, and can only be trapped in place, waiting for ocean currents or intermittent breezes. After

  a long time, the water storage on board is insufficient. The horses that were caught would die due to lack of water and be thrown into the sea, so it is called “the area full of dead horses”.

  ”Did this ship inadvertently break into the windless belt, or did they have a clear purpose and the confidence and ability to cross the windless belt?”

  Just as Li Ang was thinking about it, the scout soldiers found something strange again, and there was a strong smell of blood and water floating in the sea ahead.

  This is a large four-masted sailboat. The wooden hull is painted with water-resistant and corrosion-resistant brown paint on both sides. The mast canvas is white and beautiful, and even reflects the texture of fish scales under the sunlight.

  These canvases used on the sailboats are indeed biological materials.

  They are the skin of a white giant bear that lives on the Caravel Mountains. The giant bear can grow up to seven meters and is the most ecological niche in the mountains and forests. The top layer,

  its skin can be divided into three layers, the outermost layer is tough, light and water resistant, it is the best canvas material, only a few boats are eligible to buy and use each year.

  The ship, the Atoka, was one of them.

  The Atoka originally belonged to the Goode Navigation Company under the name of the Duke of Atoka.

  A year ago, the former Duke of Atoka, Roy Goode was accused of treason, and most of the property was confiscated and collected as State-owned,

  his younger brother, Edward Goode, took over the remaining property of his brother,

  leaving only a four-masted sailboat for his nephew, as a preferential treatment for aristocratic relatives. Will carry a severance pay, take a boat to the new world,

  nominally to open up new industries for the family,

  in fact, go to the new world to fend for themselves.

  At this moment, the deck of the sailboat Atoka was full of sailors.

  These sailors looked a bit sloppy.

  They exuded the body odor brewed from not taking a bath for a long time. There were greasy yellow marks on the mouth of the clothes,

  messy beards, and bloodshot eyes.

  Jonson Goode stood in front of the sailor,

  A year ago, he was the only son of the Duke of Goode. He inherited the blond hair and handsome appearance inherited from his ancestors. He was of noble birth and received the best aristocratic education. He was engaged to the daughter of another Duke of the Empire. Leaders of the younger generation.

  However, an accident shattered your son’s life trajectory.

  His father was convicted of treason, the evidence was conclusive, and he was imprisoned.

  He and his mother were kicked out of the castle that the family had inherited for more than 200 years and lived on the streets. Selling jewelry and renting a hotel,

  his engagement partner, the princess, also sent a letter of repentance with a cheque for a thousand pounds in it to pay for the repentance.

  And his uncle, Edward Goode, who was ignorant and hooligan in the mouths of his elders, by virtue of his good personal relationship with the imperial bishop,

  withheld the remaining property of the Goode family, and

  never split the family without inheritance rights. He became the leader of the Goode family.

  Although the title of Duke of Atoka is still detained in the Imperial Archives due to many matters of treason, it is estimated that it will not be long before Edward Goode will officially become the new Duke of Atoka and continue the Goode family.

  ”Huh”

  Thinking of this, Jonson Good couldn’t help taking a deep breath. His face was thin, his hair and beard were messy, and he couldn’t see the appearance of the blond nobleman back then.

  He endured great humiliation, cashed the check for a thousand pounds in the repentance paper, and

  used the money to hire seamen, buy goods, and

  use the only possession on hand, the Atoka, the sailing ship between the new world and the old world. They were engaged in shipping trade and slowly accumulated wealth.

  He wants to take back everything he had taken from his uncle,

  family honor, company property, personal reputation

  and even the truth of his father’s treason.

  Jonson Good clenched his fists silently and looked forward.

  On the bow of the sailing ship Atoka, there is a wooden statue of the goddess of the sea, and the sailing ships use this method to pray for safety.

  The captain of the Atoka, a middle-aged man in his 40s and 50s with a beard and a dark complexion, ordered his crew to pull a horse out of the cabin.

  The horse was one of the merchant ships’ cargo, with blindfolds on its face and cloth tied around its feet to prevent swaying.

  Captain Zheng

  pulled out the machete from his waist, and the pack horse seemed to feel an ominous aura, pedaling uneasy in place, but was firmly held down by the strong sailors on both sides, unable to move.

  Under the awe-inspiring gaze of the sailors, the captain recited aloud the incantation for the goddess of the sea, raised his sword and cut off the horse’s head.

  A streak of blood splashed out from the body of the horse and sprinkled on the statue of the bow. A

  large amount of blood flowed along the statue and fell into the sea, and the blush slowly spread in the windless sea.

  The body of the horse that lost its head twitched a few times, and the

  sailors on both sides squeezed the corpse of the horse. After all the blood was squeezed out, the body was thrown into the ocean.

  ”How long will it take?”

  Jonson Good took a step forward and asked in a low voice beside the captain.

  ”If there is no mistake, half an hour.” The

  captain wiped the blood on the machete with a cloth and replied softly, “If this ritual fails to summon the deep-sea beasts and carry us out of the windless belt, we will

  have to After half a month, the ritual will be held again.” For

  half a month

  , Jonson Good was silent. As the owner of the boat, he has been traveling by boat for a year.

  A month ago, the sailboat Atoka strayed into a windless area due to a storm and tsunami and was trapped here.

  They are almost running out of fresh water supplies on the ship, let alone another half a month, just a week, and some of the sailors below may go crazy and mutiny.

  It is not that imperial ships have no means of resisting sudden disasters. Whether it is a magic scroll that can release gusts of wind out of thin air, or a magic ball that can filter seawater into fresh water, which

  was previously available in Goode Navigation Company, it can solve the current predicament.

  But those things were also taken away by his uncle, leaving only an empty ship.   Right now, I can only pray that this foreign captain hired at a high price can really use special rituals to summon the deep-sea giant beast,

  as he said, and   let the deep-sea giant beast carry the ship and pass through the windless belt.   Jonson Good drew a hexagram-shaped pattern on his chest, silently praying to the goddess in the dark,   the mission of reviving the family has not yet been completed, the grievances of his father have not been washed away,   the repentant princess, who took away his family property. Uncle, the so-called friend who fell to the ground,   he wants to take back everything he should have.   Just when Jonson Goode was immersed in the imagination of thirty years of Hedong, thirty years of Hexi, not bullying the poor, the bloody sea suddenly boiled. stand up,
