Chapter 4 [First Announcement]
Chapter 4 [First Announcement]
Les, who walked out of the tavern, took his best crew member, Warren Hill, and began to wander aimlessly in Athens.
It is really difficult to earn at least 2 gold coins in a day. In "The Great Voyage", when the newcomer is in the novice stage, no one has his own ship or reputation. It is very difficult to get a job, and if you go to work, you can earn half a gold coins in a day.
Li Si's eyebrows were full of frowns, and he had a vague way to make money quickly in his heart, but Li Si couldn't remember what the specific method was.
"I must have forgotten something..." Li Si walked in front and murmured in a low voice.
Warren followed Li Si, looking around with his head constantly, with an excited flush on his face, "It's so lively, so prosperous..."
"Ding Dong! World Announcement: British player - George Highlander Villiers, a descendant of the Duke of Buckingham, was named "Loyal Baron" by Elizabeth Tudor, the queen of England and Ireland, and was awarded the title of "Major of the Royal Navy", and was appointed as the first mate of the epic battleship "The King of the Sea".

Three consecutive deafening world announcements sounded. At this moment, all players in the entire "Voyage" stopped and listened to the three announcements of the system in a daze.
As soon as the announcement stopped, a stone caused a thousand waves, the players in "The Great Voyage" were in full bloom.
"Damn, who is so awesome?"
"Damn, I haven't finished watching the help of a novice yet. Has this guy been promoted to the title?"
"Epic battleship, damn it, although I don't understand it very well, it sounds awesome!"
"BUG, it must be a bug, I want to report it!"
"What a big deal to report, "The Great Sail" was announced at the beginning. There are no bugs in the game. Even if there are, as long as you can find them, you can use them."
Now players have basically just entered the game. They are at the most ignorant time. They have not understood the help of novices. At this time, a system announcement of the promotion of the official position suddenly pops up, which arouses the players' huge reactions. There are all kinds of people who are unknown, and there are all kinds of people who are envious and jealous.
Regardless of the reactions of other players, George Highlander Villiers was kneeling on one knee and sworn to Queen Elizabeth I: "I swear in the name of the Almighty Lord, and I will faithfully and sincerely allegiance to the Tudors and Queen Elizabeth I and her heirs. I am willing to take up weapons for the defense of the British Empire and Her Majesty the Queen. I hereby swear freely, without any excuses or reservations, and the Almighty Lord will testify!"
As a British citizen who is proud of tradition, George has always had a fanatical worship of the British royal family.
After entering "The Great Voyage", he unexpectedly became a descendant of the Duke of Buckingham and appeared at the canonization ceremony of Queen Elizabeth I of England. He was canonized by Elizabeth I as a baron. This situation made George ecstatic and wanted to kiss the queen's shoes.

Li Si was also shocked by this announcement. He entered "The Great Voyage" in his previous life, so he did not experience this incident.
I just saw this post on the forum. George Highlander Verliers, a very lucky person and a very capable person. With the good luck of entering the game, he made a huge name in "The Great Sail" and formed a maritime fleet that can compete and fight.
Li Si seemed to have seen the new Duke of Buckingham who stood on the "King of the Sea" in his previous life, the British Admiral who looked down on the world and was full of energy.
Suppressing the slightly jealousy in his heart, Li Si let out a long sigh, "I have the advantage of rebirth, and this time I will definitely not be worse than you!"
I immediately fell into thinking again, "I must have forgotten something, what exactly is it?"
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
In the London Square Tavern, a young man picked up a glass of beer, took a big sip, and whispered: "Go and check the details of this new baron."
"Yes, young master." A middle-aged man next to him who had been standing next to the young man bowed and responded, and then his figure began to disappear and he was offline.
The map of "The Great Sail" is too big. According to the official website data, the map in "The Great Sail" is about ten times larger than that of the earth. In such a huge world, it is still in an era of sailing. Although the world's first announcement aroused a huge response from players, due to distance, only players near the UK have increased their attention to the new baron, and players in London gathered near the British palace, all wanting to witness the new baron's style.
At this time, Li Si was walking on the streets of Athens and turned to an intersection. There were fewer pedestrians on the road. Li Si looked up and saw that at the end of the white marble pavement was a building with a rich ancient Greek style, and the familiar building made Li Si’s mind flash.
"Library, reading pictures, treasure pictures, yes, why can't I remember it?"
Li Si patted his forehead in annoyance. He finally remembered what he had forgotten. The treasure map. As long as you dig out the treasure, it would be easy to get two gold coins.
Li Si was also blinded. When he entered the game in his last life, the treasure map was basically dug up, and he had never dug it up. This time he entered the game, he never thought of the treasure map.
The treasure map, players who have learned the treasure appraisal have a certain chance of obtaining it when reading treasure books in the library. Some of them identify existing antiques and treasures, while others need to be excavated. After digging out, their skills will increase, and some precious treasures can be sold at a considerable price.
"Go to the grocery store." Lis greeted Warren who followed him.
When he arrived at the grocery store, Lis exchanged his and Warren's weapons for a hoe, and excitedly took Warren to the outskirts of Athens.
"Master, where are we going?" Warren asked in confusion.
"Let's go digging for treasures. If you dig up the treasures and sell them, you can redeem the Aris." Li Si said while speeding up.
"Oh, the master must buy Warren a new sword." Warren was a little worried about his trainee dagger.
"I understand. After selling the baby, I bought you a good swordsman sword."
There are only a limited number of items that can be found in the suburbs of Athens. Li Si only knows that there is one place. It was a post I saw on the forum in my previous life. A player mentioned it when he was showing off his initial funding accumulation. This is also one of the few treasure-hiding places that Li Si knows that can be mined without a treasure map.
After hurriedly walking out of the north gate of Athens, Lis took Warren to the outskirts of Athens, outside the city were continuous olive groves and oak groves.
A gravel-paved road stretches to the mountains in the distance. On the gravel road are carriages transporting marble. The creaking axle sounds are mixed with the neighing, whipping, and shouting of horses.
"This is the specialty of Athens, marble."
Perhaps because it had just rained, Li Si, who was walking by the gravel road, had stuck to the soil on the soles of the shoes after walking not far.
Looking up at the slightly gloomy sky, Lis slightly identified the direction and led Warren into the oak forest on the right side of the road.
The oak woods were obviously more muddy and it was very laborious to walk.
"Warren, go faster, it seems that it will rain later." Li Si wiped his sweat and turned around and said to Warren.
"Okay, master."
After passing through the oak forest and climbing over a mountain, Li Si breathed a sigh of relief and finally arrived at the ground.
He looked at the increasingly gloomy sky, "You have to speed up, Warren, go to the left, I go to the right, find a stacked rock with two heights, right here, and find this place, and shout at the empty space halfway up the mountain."
Li Si pointed to the treeless clearing on the hillside and ordered Warren.
"Yes, master, be careful of snakes. I saw a snake just now." Warren responded and reminded Li Si.
"Well, I get it, hurry up, try to find it before it rains."
After saying that, Li Si went to search the right first. The tall tree canopy covered the sky and the iconic stacked rock, so Li Si had to search separately with Warren.
While looking around, he swept away some branches in front of him with the wooden stick in his hand to drive away mosquitoes. Finally, after being sucked by branches on his face for the eighth time, Li Si, who turned his head reflexively, finally saw the stomping rock.
After sweeping away all the branches blocking the road, Li Si walked to the near dike rock, looked at it, and confirmed the location below, Li Si must be the one dike rock mentioned in the post.
Back the same road, climbed up the hill and shouted back to Warren. The two of them came to the bottom of the stacked rock with hoes.
"It's nearby. Dig a circle around the stacked rock first and start digging." Lis told Warren.
"Yes, master." Warren waved his hoe and dug it up.
Li Si also took a stick and pulled it up. The post only said that it was near the rock, but Li Si didn't know which one was, so he could only try his luck by scratching it like this.
The sky became more and more gloomy, and the slight wind gradually became violent, whistling through the hills, waving the trees around.
Li Si and Warren were working hard under the stacked rock. They had already reviewed the entire stacked rock, but they still couldn't find the small wooden box mentioned in the post.
"Isn't it a fool?"
As time passed, Li Si gradually became unsure. If he wanted to fool people, he would suffer heavy losses. Not to mention that the Aris could not be retrieved, he would not even lose the only two weapons on his own.
"Master, do we still want to continue?"
Warren's face was covered in sweat and mud, and asked, wiping his forehead with his sleeves, which were also covered in mud.
"Dig, continue digging, expand the range a little bit, it must be here."
Li Si gritted his teeth and said firmly, he didn't want to disappoint himself, a top-notch crew member, which would affect his prestige and reduce his favorability.
Of course, if you don’t find it in the end, it is inevitable to reduce it, but until the end, Li Si didn’t want to give up. Once he gave up, he would lose more than his favorability, but also the “Aris” and two very important weapons in the early stage.
