Chapter209 【New Journey】
In the year 1637 of the Great Navigation Calendar, it was the twenty-ninth day of the Cold Wind Month.
The weather was gloomy, and it started to rain coldly early in the morning. The cold rain was mixed with hard hail, which was the sign of the coming of the frozen moon.
The entire world sea, except for the far east, has a mild climate all year round. I don’t know if it is because of the belief in the God of Glory. The months named due to climate changes have only become name changes in the east. In the other seas,
The weather changes strictly according to the month, and at most it is just different in intensity.
As a place close to the Sea of Storms, the West Sea is not as cold and abnormally cold all year round as the North Sea, but it is windy, rainy, and prone to thunderstorms.
Even in the cold wind month or even the frozen month, thunderstorms are common.
Today, from time to time, dark thunder flashed across the sky in the distance.
But this did not cause any loss of morale for the crew of the Golden Holy Grail.
Everyone's morale is very good and very high, even though they all already know that the voyage they are about to embark on this time is almost like a death route.
Along the way, they will be chased and intercepted by an unknown number of pirates, and may even be hunted down by Nasuo's combined fleet. Secretly, there are unknown number of unidentified people who plan to sink them into the sea.
But they are not afraid.
Because they are led by their captain, the great Ince Fogg, who has led them through so many storms, and they will never fail this time.
All of this, in addition to the many times when Li Jiu led everyone to ride the wind and waves and defeat powerful enemies, there is also the milestone [United as One] that was only achieved two days ago. Without this milestone, Li Jiu would have faced such a huge undercurrent.
It's hard to say what his crew will do.
Therefore, he had to take the Gurid with him on this voyage.
It was already eight o'clock in the morning, and Li Jiu was doing the final inspection work.
On the Golden Holy Grail, the five newly produced alchemical cannons have been replaced. Even in the past few days, Li Jiu went back to Tut and brought three new alchemical cannons produced by Luciferus.
, and also brought him newly purchased materials.
He is now sitting on a wealth that can be accumulated in Rio for many years, and there is really no shortage of money.
Rio was completely tied to the chariot this time. When the merchants association voted, he clearly sided with Talina.
This time, Talina can be said to have gone her own way. Others voted anonymously, but he played his cards openly. Even if he didn't vote, he would be considered to have voted.
So he could only put down his wealth and go to the gambling table.
If Lijiu's voyage failed this time, unless Flint came back in time and could save his life, he would have to wait for death.
Therefore, he wants money to give money and people to give to others.
All members of Li Jiu's two ships had their equipment changed, their weapons were replaced with the latest muzzle-loading rifles from the Sethka Arsenal, and they were also wearing light iron armor. Even Fisher's sword was replaced with a new one.
of.
fully armed.
Of course, when it comes to medicine, Li Jiu will definitely not treat his own people badly.
In the past few days, Enwei worked frantically and quickly digested the potion. He himself was successfully promoted to the second-level healer of the ship's doctor. Of course, Li Jiu must have bought the potion on the black market with the money sponsored by Rio.
Although Li Jiu's current fleet only has two ships and more than seventy people, its combat effectiveness should already rank among the top twenty in the waters of Calabis.
This includes all pirates, official fleets, and armed merchant ships.
It sounds quite bluffing, but thinking about the opponents this time, in fact, no one still has any confidence in Li Jiu.
Even he also displayed a rather brilliant cross flag.
A few days ago, everyone didn't know what that flag represented, but now many people understand that it is the symbol of the Inquisition.
The fact that the Inquisition fought against the Marquis of Sitians and achieved certain results has been widely spread in Leuthe.
Li Jiu definitely contributed to this.
He also secretly asked Matthew to mobilize those fanatical believers. In short, he just wanted to make this incident known to the whole city, and all the passing ship traders and pirates would know about it.
The Inquisition represents the power of the kingdom, and the Kingdom of Castile has turned its attention again.
This is a signal.
Even if this signal couldn't scare the Marquis of Sitting, it could at least scare a lot of people.
In short, Li Jiu has completed all the preparations that need to be made and the buffs that need to be stacked, and now it is time to set sail.
Standing on the bow of the ship and looking at the still busy port of Leutge, Li Jiu had no emotion at all. He had already adapted to life at sea, going to sea, docking, and going to sea.
They always have to go to sea, because this is the world of the sea, and they are men who belong to the sea.
Old John finished checking the situation of the Golden Holy Grail and everything was ready. On the other side, Toller also finished checking the situation of the Gurid.
Thorle, who has mutated into a half-human, half-indescribable being, has put on a robe that covers the whole body very similar to Sophie's before, so as not to attract attention, and it can be regarded as a disguised hidden card.
What I want to mention here is that Sophie has also completed her promotion recently. She was successfully promoted from the first level of missionary to the second level of priest, and her strength has also been greatly improved.
However, Sophie said that this was because she had been with him for a relatively long time.
It seems to be saying that she can upgrade if she falls in love. After all, they have been going out to the night market every night recently, eating, holding hands and so on...
Hmm...isn't this impolite to the God of Glory?
Forget it, he has promoted Sophie anyway, so there is no such problem, right?
After glancing at Toller, Li Jiu couldn't help but glance at the cabin of the Gurread. Arthur Royer and Blind Hain were inside.
This time it was a full-scale attack.
Except for Talina who stayed in Leutch and took control of the situation.
Of course, it is said to be controlling the situation. If something happens at sea, there will be no situation at all in Leuthe. It can only be said to be some kind of psychological comfort for Rioco.
But this is Talina's idea, actually...
At about 8:30, the rain on the sea subsided a little. Li Jiu took out a pocket watch and took a look. This was naturally the latest equipment he bought. There was no place to buy it before, but now in Leuthe, naturally
I want to buy one as soon as possible.
As a time traveler, not having a clear timing tool is very torturous for him, especially after experiencing the Nagsol incident.
Taking a deep breath, he slowly pulled out the desire from his waist and swung it towards the sky, followed by the fierce flames.
"start sailing!"
A new journey has begun.
