The Amber Sword - 1275

When Brando returned to the top deck, the ship was sailing out of the waterway between Teverde Island and Port Gusail with full sails. The two ships in Tagus also slowed down and waited for them to follow. On one side of the sea is the rugged rock of Tyved Island. It looks pale as phosphorous in the moonlight. The wind blows from the south of Gusail. The visibility was extremely high, and he could clearly see that the wall of fog on the east side of the Wagtail Strait was slowly moving.

There seemed to be countless boats in the thick fog. They stretched continuously, forming a wall between the boats, like forest masts looming, I don’t know that there are hundreds or thousands of boats in it. What makes him look a little ugly is that this fog is slowly approaching the west coast of Wagtail Strait – that is, where they are, and it seems to be blending with the fog that diffuses from the Port of Gusail.

This is nothing, but the problem is that their three boats are right in the middle.

There was dead silence on the deck at this time, and the people who were celebrating before were also dumb right now. If they are still confident to pass through the mist in Gussel Harbor, but the wall of fog in front of them stretches for hundreds of miles. On the wide sea, the north and the south could not be seen at a glance, and it was impossible to get around.

When Brando came out with Delphine and Instaron behind him, everyone subconsciously cast their eyes on him. Previously, he led them to break out of Gusail Bay. Lando regarded him as the one who could solve the current troubles.

But Brando didn’t know anything in his heart at this time. He looked at the slowly moving cloud wall on the sea with a calm expression. He went back the same way, seemingly unaffected, but the state of the mist at that time was not the same as it is now.

As for going around, it was even joking. The fog began to appear from Rosalind. They had driven north for three days without seeing the head. Who knows where the other end is.

However, the fog in the port of Gussel was chasing from the waterway behind, and it seemed that all he could do at the moment was to continue northward.

If it doesn’t work, you can only abandon the ship and land. The fog can never penetrate too far into the land. Although the coastal ports have suffered, there is always a safe place inland.

It depends on whether they can go so far in a short time and get out of the mist-shrouded area.

“What is the terrain in the north? Is there a place suitable for landing? It is best to have a shelter from the wind, and the terrain with mountains or hills nearby is the best?” Thinking of this, Brando turned his head and asked.

Instalong thought for a while, and replied: “There are yes, but there are places like this that have become ports, Lord Earl.”

Brando was silent. He understood what the other party meant. Obviously, this situation like Gusail could not be an exception. Ports in other places may have suffered the same bad luck.

But the terrain on the west bank of the Wagtail Strait is steep, and there are not many places where ports can be built. Therefore, a limited number of places have been used by humans or undead. It is really difficult to find a natural undeveloped anchorage. .

“I know there is such a place, teacher.”

At this time, Huang Huo walked over, looked at them and said.

“what?”

“But I have never been there, I have only heard of it. I heard people say that there is a pirate hiding place in the bay and canyon near Soparachi. Log in there.”

“我也听说过这个地方，”因斯塔龙一副回想起来的样子，但他苍白的面孔上却并没有多少喜悦之色：“但是没人知道那个巢穴究竟在什么地方，索帕拉契附近的峡湾地形复杂，如果我们找错了的话就麻烦了。”

布兰多回头望了一眼泰维德岛与古赛尔之间黑沉沉的海面，那片雾气扩散的速度在南风的作用下明显加快了，而前方鹡鸰海峡上的雾气之墙也正向这个方向压过来，留给他们的选择其实已经不多了。

“总比坐以待毙的好，”他答道：“无论如何总得试上一把，那地方距离这里多远，我们来得及赶过去么？”

“不远，”德尔菲恩明白这个问题是问她的，她这些天早已把雨燕平原附近的地图烂熟于胸，开口便答道：“索帕拉契在古赛尔北面，距离这里就只有一百多海里而已，它是青玉之丘在海峡对面的最大对口港之一。不过这座港口的历史其实很短，一直到蛛毒之年才被人所发现，但索帕拉契湾腹宽口窄，天然避风，港内水深达八米以上，几乎能够容纳九凤地区所有种类的商军用舰船，是个优秀的天然良港，据说那里拥有修筑空港的条件，只是这地方用不上而已。”

一百多海里，这个距离放在陆地上普通人要走好几天才能抵达，但放在海上确实不算是一段太长的距离，他们的这三艘船都是很优秀的武装商船，最快的在满帆的情况下能到十二节的速度，最慢的也有十节，眼下正好乘南风，理论上到明天上午就能看到索帕拉契的海岸线了。

但那只是理论上，实际上是否能留给他们这么多时间只有天知道，布兰多的自身的航海知识虽然有一些但也只能说不是两眼一抹黑而已，他根本推算不出来那雾气在海面上的前进速度有多快，但至少看得出来肯定不会留给他们十个钟头那么多时间。

能有一半就不错了。

“那附近的地形很复杂？”

“索帕拉契在冰川带上，往东就是九凤大冰川的南缘，冰川移动和冰雪融化侵蚀很容易就造就了复杂的海崖与峡湾带，其实整个鹡鸰海峡西面的海岸线都受类似的地质改变影响，只有在海峡另一面东南方较为温暖的地区，冰川的冰雪融化之后的河流才形成了冲积平原。”

Brando understood that the great glacier of Voende is located in the east of Farnzan and to the north of the Saint Ossor Plain. However, the term “great glacier” is actually a broad geographical concept. It’s just the West Rim. This glacier-or better called the ice sheet, is the most desperate place on the west side of the World of Warnd and the largest part of the “Black Forest” outside the world of Warnd (the Black Forest is certainly far from Just the forest), this glacier extends eastward. No one knows where its border is. It crosses the Kursun Strait to the south, intersects part of the border with Madara, and then crosses the Wagtail Strait and becomes entrenched. Part of the huge desperate situation on the northern border of Jiufeng.

And this part of Jiufeng Glacier is what the prime minister’s daughter mentioned.

Brando pondered for a moment and looked at Instaron: “Go and signal Mr. Targus. Let’s go north and the destination is Soparachi. By the way, how many corpses on your ship must be Intermediate or above?”

He suddenly asked.

Instaron was stunned, and didn’t understand the meaning of the question for a while: “That’s not much, Lord Earl, including the adjutant on this ship, no more than five at most.”

“So few?” Brando was a little puzzled. He knew that in Madara, the corpse witch was the most important part of the army. It could not be an exaggeration to say that it was the backbone, especially since their undead summoning technique has not been exaggerated. The era of improvement.

There is no grassroots elite skeleton warrior, no stab undead, no cheap necromancer apprentice, the corpse witch is the most important middle and lower-level commander of the undead.

Moreover, the corpse witch is Madara’s most precious and rarest technical unit, such as the Navy’s high-tech service. Before the emergence of elite skeleton warriors with wisdom, the general skeleton warriors were most used as cannon fodder. Work—that is, ship-to-board warfare, or used in previous landing battles. Let them be sailors, and Dingtian can only deal with simple tasks such as clearing the deck or rowing a boat.

And truly professional sailors, in fact, only a corpse witch with a certain amount of wisdom can be competent, so there are only five professional sailors on such a large two boats? Brando couldn’t understand.

“In Rosalin, we usually use humans to supplement sailors. The humans here often deal with us. If we can afford to pay, they will not mind helping us work. After all, we are not a real warship. The intermediate corpse is It’s impossible to equip so many, that thing is also very precious to us,” Instaron shook his head and smiled bitterly: “Actually, there are still some from Rosalin, but didn’t it mean that I didn’t expect to bring them out? Do you want them for any use?”

Brando is a bit speechless. Professional human sailors are actually better than corpse witches. Intermediate corpse witches are wise but limited. Advanced corpse witches are no different from humans, or even better, but Madara is the same. How many senior corpses are there?

Most of them have become undead lords.

Unfortunately, what he needs now is not a professional sailor, but a corpse witch. Although corpse witches can be sailors, their real role is not only a sailor, nor is it only a part of Madara’s middle and lower-level non-commissioned officers. The important thing is that they are all mages.

Although it may be a bit crappy.

But this is enough.

Seeing that Brando’s face is a bit unsightly, Instaron, who has learned how to look at his words these days, quickly said: “But there are still a lot of low-level corpses, Lord Earl.”

Brando shook his head, “No, let Targus gather the Intermediate Witches and send them here. I want to do something and need the help of a few wizards.”
